I don't know if we have affiliates 11 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 3: in Chicago, but get ready, get excited this. 12 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:32,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. Right. 13 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 2: And there might be a few, you know, crazed lunatic 14 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,160 Speaker 2: fans that are like, no, keep them, But I think 15 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 2: we had a feeled to most of the masses. You 16 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 2: know what the hot rumor is for a little while. 17 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 2: One of my good friends is a Bears fan, and 18 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 2: he's like, all they're talking about in Chicago right now 19 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 2: for a little while, this is a few weeks ago. 20 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 2: He's like, it's not about Caleb Williams, It's about trading 21 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 2: for Justin Herbert. That was the big talk for a while. 22 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, Jim Harbaugh, maybe putting his money where his mouth is. 23 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 3: Maybe he'll draft JJ McCarthy and see yeah right, yeah, 24 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 3: there you go down that road forever. 25 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: I mean, that's what you know. 26 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 3: You just trade Herbert to the Bears, get the number 27 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 3: one pick, and you pick whoever you. 28 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: Want, right, Yeah, you can go. And I don't know 29 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 1: is Herbert worth a. 30 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 4: Number one though? 31 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, like the number one pick, I don't know. 32 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: That's a lot for her It's a. 33 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 2: Lot, right, But that's the whole thing is if you 34 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 2: have to think about that with Justin Herbert, Yeah, and 35 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 2: the numbers he's put up. I mean, now that's a 36 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 2: conversation with Justin Fields. It should not be a conversation. 37 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 2: But we'll get into that a little bit later in 38 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 2: the show. 39 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: How about we haven't talked since Super Bowl fifty eight. 40 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: Now, we're not going to do a deep dive, sure, 41 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 2: but there's still some meat on that bone. And I 42 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: thought we could just compare a few notes here. Mahomes dude, 43 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,279 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not gonna say anything that you haven't 44 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 2: heard all week about Mahomes, but this that a couple 45 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 2: of stats blow my mind. 46 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: Jared. 47 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 2: We always talk about the value of a rookie quarterback, 48 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 2: a rookie quarterback contract. That's why we'll bring it up 49 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 2: with the Caleb Williams justin field thing. It's a huge 50 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 2: advantage to have a quarterback on a rookie deal. You 51 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,359 Speaker 2: can splurge elsewhere when it comes to the roster. If 52 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 2: you look at Mahomes, look at last year. So we're 53 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 2: talking to twenty two season. Who he went through in 54 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 2: the playoffs, Trevor Lawrence rookie contract, Joe Burrow at the 55 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 2: time rookie contract, Jalen Hurts at the time rookie contract, 56 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 2: then this past season to a tunk of I loo 57 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 2: is still on his rookie deal. He hasn't gotten paid yet, 58 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 2: and Brock Purty, all those guys on their rookie contracts. 59 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,959 Speaker 2: And he won every single game, and he's the first 60 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 2: quarterback with two hundred passing yards and fifty rushing yards 61 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 2: after halftime in the Super Bowl is what he did 62 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:56,239 Speaker 2: against San Francisco. So it's his third ring already sensational. 63 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 3: I mean, it's just timing with him. I like the 64 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 3: talent again, we can talk about the talent un till 65 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 3: we're blue in the face. It's it's off the charts, 66 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 3: but it's so rare to have a guy that can 67 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 3: time it out the way he does and. 68 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: To make like you knew. 69 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,239 Speaker 3: For example, in overtime fourth and one, was there any 70 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 3: doubt that the ball was going to be in his hands. 71 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: They weren't handing it to Pacheco on that play. And 72 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 3: I love now it actually is timely because it's been 73 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 3: a few days and now we're starting to get the 74 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 3: miked up footage from the field, which offers a completely 75 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 3: different perspective compared to what we're watching. For example, we'll 76 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 3: get to the overtime stuff, but the game was over 77 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 3: the second the Niners one the thoughts and took the ball, 78 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 3: like based off of what we were hearing from the sidelines, 79 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 3: like the Niners layer, I don't know what's going on, 80 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 3: and Chiefs are like, they want the ball, they can 81 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 3: have it. So it just like the timing of how 82 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 3: he operates is so unique because the schedule isn't as 83 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 3: important with him, like we always talk about we talk 84 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 3: about this Brock pretty a lot. Stay on schedule, right, 85 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 3: he needs the offense, Hesanski doesn't really matter for him. 86 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 3: Right the second and fourteen after I think it was 87 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 3: Valdus Yes, and NBA Yeah, don't I lose ten yards? 88 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, went backwards. Everyone's like, what are you doing? 89 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 3: And it was like checking down, third down, all good, 90 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 3: like in the red zone. Like it just he just 91 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 3: has this ability to raise the game at the right moments, 92 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 3: and that I think is the rarest quality for any quarterback. 93 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 94 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 2: And look, man, this is where I need you to 95 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 2: tell me if you think I'm being fair. I think 96 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: I'm being fair. 97 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: But I like this game. It's my new favorite game. 98 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 1: Is no being fair? 99 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, but prock purty listen. I thought he played really well. Sure, 100 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 2: I thought he made some good throws, some good decisions, 101 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 2: but he wasn't special. And there were a couple of 102 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 2: throws he left on the field. Deebo Samuel was wide 103 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 2: open in the back of the end zone. It's a 104 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 2: little bit of heat from Chris Jones. It affected him. 105 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 2: He sailed it right out of bounds, right, and then 106 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 2: in overtime he had juwan Ja wide open. He also 107 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,600 Speaker 2: had Brandon Aiyuk wide open. They messed it up. They 108 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 2: didn't block Chris Jones. But that's where a special quarterback 109 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,359 Speaker 2: makes a special play. Do you think that Mahomes in 110 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 2: the same situation would have just sailed it nowhere near 111 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:16,679 Speaker 2: his intended receiver. 112 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:18,719 Speaker 1: He escapes. 113 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 3: Figure that a way and that you nailed it with 114 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 3: bron you're being fair. I think Brock played Like if 115 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 3: this was a regular season game and the Niners lost 116 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 3: in overtime, everyone be like, oh, Brock played well, you know, 117 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,679 Speaker 3: no no turnovers. He had two drives in the fourth 118 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 3: quarter to give his team the lead. They were field goals, 119 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 3: though they weren't the right the the exclamation point type 120 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 3: drives that you need to finish off a game. And 121 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 3: I think that's where the difference is. Like it it's 122 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 3: not talent, it's just the timing. Like Brock has this 123 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 3: ability to make plays, but he doesn't have that special 124 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 3: quality that Mahomes has and not everyone does. Like you 125 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 3: can't knock a guy for not being as good as 126 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes. It's just you just can't do it like it's. 127 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 1: He's the best. 128 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 3: But yeah, just that little moment, I think is what 129 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 3: what the Niners were missing. 130 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think that's where the conversation gets tricky 131 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 2: because there are people that will hear you and I 132 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 2: say that, and they'll say. 133 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: Oh, we're just hating on the guy. 134 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 2: This is unnecessary, as if we're saying the sky is 135 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 2: total trash. 136 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: You can't do anything right. No one's saying that. 137 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 2: With half a brain and two eyes, you know, you 138 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 2: could even have one halfway good eye and. 139 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 3: Still see one of my eyes is only I I 140 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 3: see better out of one eye, So I'm in the Yeah, 141 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 3: the left eyes, the good eye. 142 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: The right eye. 143 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, like the left eye can be a little or 144 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 3: the right eye can be a little blurry sometimes. 145 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 2: Who is the girl that burned down Andre Risen's half 146 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 2: of his house? 147 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: Left eye no over there called back nineties hip hop? 148 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, like that left eye Smith, I like that, Lisa 149 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 2: Lopez shout out yeah. 150 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: But that's what I think. 151 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 2: If you do the equivalent of Brock Purdy's performance as 152 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 2: a basketball player, think about this. It would be a 153 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 2: guy who played a really good game. This might be 154 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 2: Game seven with all the marbles on the line here 155 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 2: and that player he hit a lot of mid range 156 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 2: jump shots, He went to the bucket a couple of times, 157 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: a couple of nice finishes, got to the free throw line, 158 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 2: stacked some points that way, did some good things. But 159 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 2: then when it came time to hit the shot and 160 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 2: it was tougher. There was a guy in his face. 161 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 2: He was back there deep range shooting a three pointer. 162 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 2: He didn't make it. Like it was a good performance, 163 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 2: But you're not beating Michael Jordan that way, you know 164 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 2: what I mean? Like it just has to be more 165 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 2: than that, and it's gonna be interesting. They can't give 166 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 2: him a contract extension this offseason, and they just he 167 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 2: hasn't gotten through his third year, so he's still gonna 168 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 2: be on his rookie deal. It's not gonna count like 169 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 2: a million bucks against the the Niners. Cap twenty twenty 170 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 2: four is the year for the Niners because they already 171 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 2: have some tough decisions to make, but when they pay 172 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 2: Brock Perdy, they have tougher decisions to make and they're 173 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 2: gonna have to skimp at certain spots like that. It's 174 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 2: all in for the Niners in twenty four. 175 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: Man. Yeah, and I think should be fair to Brock. 176 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 3: You give a lot of credit to Spags and that 177 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 3: d they called the perfect blitzes on third downs, the 178 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 3: third down percentages and really is what tilted that game 179 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 3: and what the Chiefs defense was able to accomplish on 180 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 3: third downs getting I mean there was three or four 181 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 3: third downs in that game that were like this is 182 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 3: the moment. 183 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that one after the two minute warning the 184 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 2: third and four you're like, if they get four yards, 185 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 2: game over, they're probably gonna win. 186 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: And they couldn't do it. 187 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 3: Spag styled up a perfect blitz and it just the 188 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 3: timing was off. Brock actually had Aye, you go open 189 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 3: on a couple of those spots. I think that was 190 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 3: the one where he had I, you go open on 191 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 3: a hot route over the middle, and he just didn't 192 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 3: see it in time. I think it was it was 193 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 3: either Snead or McDuffie. Someone blitzing from the slot got 194 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 3: there quick on and you know the protections. See that's 195 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 3: those are the nuances that the box score doesn't show. 196 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 3: Brian Brock Purty on third and four needs to figure 197 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 3: out a way to slide that protection and pick up 198 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 3: that Blitzer on the backside didn't see it. The offensive 199 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:26,719 Speaker 3: line didn't see it. B line of the quarterback unchecked Blitzer, 200 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 3: boom ball gets tipped at the line and it was 201 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 3: a it was a bad, you know looking play that 202 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 3: ended up going Kansas City's way. Those are the little 203 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 3: thing that doesn't show up in the box score. It's 204 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 3: just an incomplete pass. But the defense being able to 205 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 3: cause that incomplete pass based off of good scheming up front, 206 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 3: and the Niners unable to pick up that blitzer. It 207 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 3: just those are just the little things that I think 208 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 3: Mahomes does better than most guys. 209 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 2: And man, what a game. It really was a fun game. 210 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 2: It was that the second half was the elect fantastic. 211 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 2: It's a good point because sometimes a box score will 212 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 2: lie to you. It won't tell you the full, you know, details. 213 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 2: That's why you gotta watch. You can't just be box 214 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 2: score dependent. Where there were a couple of plays where 215 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 2: we tend to look at a box score and say, oh, 216 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 2: two interceptions, that's where they lost the game, right, It's 217 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 2: a glaring mistake. 218 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: Like you know, and other than the punt fumble. But 219 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 3: Brock was clean in that department, right, right, Yeah, Brock 220 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 3: was clean. So you might glance at the stat. 221 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 2: Sheet and say, well, yeah, not pretty good all things considered, 222 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 2: pretty good. But that's where a game can be lost. 223 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 2: Is it's not the huge mistake, it's the it's the 224 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 2: play that is there that isn't made. Yeah, that doesn't 225 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 2: show up the broadcasting live from the tirec dot Com studios. 226 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 2: Tirac dot com will help get you there an unmatched selection, fast, 227 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 2: free shipping, free road hazard protection, and over ten thousand 228 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 2: recommended installers.

Oh yeah, 231 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 2: in Super Bowl fifty eight, the overtime rules. 232 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: Man, look what are we doing? 233 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 2: You know, like when you talk about how close it 234 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 2: is in the NFL to win games, and especially between 235 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 2: the Chiefs and the forty nine Ers, they're in overtime 236 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 2: for the second time ever in Super Bowl history, right, 237 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 2: and then you have the Chiefs who have just drilled 238 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 2: this stuff. Yeah Andy Reid at camp, Yeah, he said, 239 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 2: We've talked about it all year, the overtime rules in 240 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 2: the playoffs. We talked about it in training camp about 241 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 2: how the rules were different in the regular season versus 242 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 2: the playoffs. Every week at the playoffs we talked about 243 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 2: the overtime rule. And then you get a couple of 244 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 2: these forty nine Er quotes Jared Eric Armstead, Niners, D Lineman. 245 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 2: I didn't even know about the new playoff overtime rule. 246 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 2: So it was a surprise to me. I didn't even know. 247 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 2: I didn't even really know what was going on in 248 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 2: terms of that that you have Kyle Uschek, Niners fullback. 249 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 2: You know what, I didn't even realize the playoff rules 250 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 2: were different in overtime. I assume you just want the 251 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 2: ball to score a touchdown and win. I guess that's 252 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 2: not the case. I don't totally know the strategy there. 253 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 2: We hadn't talked about it. 254 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 1: No wow. 255 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 2: And then the Niners, of course, they choose to take 256 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 2: the ball, and it starts to unravel from there. I 257 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 2: hated the decision to take the ball. 258 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 3: You jared awful, and I think I think Kyle was 259 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 3: so set on it that he just didn't think about it. 260 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 3: You saw them MIC the footage of Kyle talking to 261 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 3: I believe it was Warner, Hey, Fred, we want the 262 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 3: ball like it was confident, It was concise, There was 263 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 3: no indecision about it. 264 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: In his mind. The right decision was taking the ball. 265 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,079 Speaker 3: Now, they had just been on the field for an 266 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 3: eleven play sixty five yard drift the defense that tied 267 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 3: the game right at the end of regulation. So maybe 268 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 3: the thought process is Okay, I'm giving my defensive break here, 269 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 3: putting my offense on the field first. That part I understand. 270 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 3: I talk to a couple math guys. The math is split. 271 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 3: There is no definite decision because of that third possession 272 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:16,839 Speaker 3: that's lingering out there. 273 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: But that's tough to play for. 274 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 3: The third possession if you're taking the ball first, because 275 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 3: you're still putting the ball in the hands, Like even 276 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 3: if the only way that you guarantee yourself a third 277 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 3: possession is if you score a touchdown and get a 278 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 3: two point conversion. 279 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: Because I'll be honest, I think if the Niners score 280 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 1: touchdown and kicked on that first drive, and the Chiefs 281 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: then matched with a touchdown, I think they're going for two. Yeah. 282 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 3: I just think you don't put the ball in someone 283 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 3: else's hands if you want to win the game. And 284 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 3: we've seen that strategy in overtime and in other spots 285 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 3: at the end of games. Now in this new iteration, right, 286 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 3: Mike Rabel goes for two all the time when he 287 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 3: scores a game time touchdown. 288 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: We see this a lot amongst teams. 289 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 3: So playing for the third possession is like a possession 290 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 3: that might not exist anyways. So it's like it I 291 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 3: just I would have absolutely kicked, but that's not what 292 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 3: they did. 293 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: Yeah. 294 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 2: You know what's funny is because the overtime rules in 295 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 2: the playoffs they're different, they're new. We're not used to it. 296 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 2: We haven't seen big playoff game after big playoff game, 297 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 2: or super Bowl after super Bowl where the team winning 298 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 2: the toss has to make this decision. And I just 299 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 2: go back to college, right, what do you do in 300 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 2: college every single time? 301 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: To first? 302 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 2: You go on defense first, right, you know what you 303 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 2: need to do, and so if you can get a stop, 304 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 2: you might only need a field goal. You know, that's 305 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 2: what could have happened in the Super Bowl. And so 306 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 2: for Mahomes to know what he needed, and for you 307 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 2: to give the Chiefs fourth down every single time, it's 308 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 2: an autoback go key. 309 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, giving the best player in the game a mulligan. Oh, 310 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 3: first down, no big deal, It's okay, we have fourth down, world, Right. 311 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 1: Let's play it the other way, Jared, where let's say. 312 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 2: Somehow, some way you held the Chiefs to the Chiefs 313 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 2: score on their first possession. Right, the Chiefs get the ball, 314 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 2: the Niners had fourth and four when they kick the 315 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 2: field goaling over. They're going for it, right, So that's 316 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 2: where it changes it. I agree with you that the 317 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 2: whole third possession, like Mahomes, changes the math. If the 318 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 2: Niners score a touchdown, If Mahomes and the Chiefs score 319 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 2: a touchdown, the Chiefs are going for two. 320 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 3: And the Niners aren't going for two. If they score first, 321 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 3: they're kicking the extra point. So you're giving Mahomes the 322 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 3: last lick. The ball will be in his hands with 323 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 3: a chance to win the game no matter what happens 324 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 3: on that third possession. 325 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: That's right. 326 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 2: And that's the thing where party doesn't need to be Mahomes, 327 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 2: but you need a quarterback that's special like Mahomes isn't 328 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 2: the only special quarterback in the NFL. 329 00:15:59,160 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: There are a handful. 330 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 2: There's Joe Burrow, There's Josh Allen, there are more on 331 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 2: that list. But it's gotta be more than what it 332 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 2: is because. 333 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 3: You're giving him an extra down too. You're making him 334 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 3: that much more special by giving him an extra down 335 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 3: by kicking. And I don't think I don't think Kyle 336 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 3: thought that through. I honestly don't, and clearly the players 337 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 3: weren't thinking it through. 338 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: I mean they didn't even know what was going on. 339 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 2: The last thing I'd say about it is it's interesting 340 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 2: where let's just say Kyle Shanahan said, we defer, we're 341 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 2: gonna kick to the chiefs, the Chiefs go down, they score. 342 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 2: You know as well as I do, you would have 343 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 2: a lot of people saying the opposite, which is, why 344 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 2: would you put Rock Perdy in that situation? Like yahd 345 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 2: yah yah da YadA. So it could have gone differently 346 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 2: the way it's looked at. But I really thought that 347 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 2: before I had any access to the results, and I 348 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 2: think you gotta be first guessing before your second guessing. 349 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 2: And I thought the decision to kick it it just 350 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 2: didn't make sense from the get go, and it certainly 351 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 2: played out that way.

So this was a story that really 377 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 2: got lost in the shuffle leading up to the Super Bowl. 378 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 2: I wanted to throw it your way, Jared. It was 379 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 2: Arthur Blank, the team owner of the Falcons. He was 380 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 2: talking about the Falcons' interactions with Bill Belichick. Right, they 381 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 2: didn't offer Belichick the head coaching job, but Arthur Blank 382 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:45,640 Speaker 2: revealed that Belichick was never asking for full control over personnel. Right, 383 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 2: So this was Arthur Blank's statement. He said, I do 384 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 2: want to make it one thousand percent clear, want to 385 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 2: go to two thousand percent or one hundred thousand, whatever 386 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 2: percent you want to use. Bill Belichick never asked for 387 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 2: in our discussion full control of the personnel or the 388 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 2: building or anything of that nature. He was very inclusive, 389 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 2: very collaborative. He met Terry Fontineau, checked out our people, 390 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 2: doing his own references, sent me a private text which 391 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 2: I eventually shared with Terry that he'd be happy working 392 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 2: with him. So the question becomes, do you feel better 393 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 2: or worse about Belichick becoming a head coach? Again, when 394 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 2: it's revealed that Belichick was actually collaborative, there's a lot 395 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 2: of speculation, Oh, why doesn't he just want to coach 396 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 2: football instead of basically picking the groceries and having full control. Yeah, 397 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 2: turns out he didn't want that and still didn't get 398 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 2: the job. So do you feel better or worse about 399 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 2: Belichick getting a gig going forward? 400 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 3: It's an interesting conundrum because the whole scenario how it 401 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 3: played out, was they were looking to hire Bill and 402 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 3: during that process, they fired Rich McKay, who was like 403 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 3: the CEO of the team, who was kind of like 404 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 3: like a Bill Belichick, non football coaching entity in their 405 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 3: front office, like running a lot of the operations and 406 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 3: stuff like that, but obviously not dealing with the coaching 407 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 3: side of it. And on the surface level, when you 408 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 3: look at those two events happening simultaneously, it is very 409 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 3: fair for us to assume, well, maybe they were talking 410 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 3: about the football operations and Rich McKay and how he 411 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 3: fit into it, and as they were discussing this new 412 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 3: regime that was coming in, they decided to move Rich 413 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 3: McKay to the side and allow for a coach to 414 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 3: come in and have a little more control over the 415 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 3: football operation. 416 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: Like that's how it was viewed to me on surface level. 417 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 3: But now you throw this wrinkle in and we do 418 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 3: have to kind of take Arthur at face value, whether 419 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 3: or not you I mean, the fact that he had 420 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 3: to go from one hundred percent to two percent and 421 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 3: one thousand percent and five Like, to me, that's like 422 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 3: posturing a little bit, right, Like, just come out and 423 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 3: say it. You don't have to give me a percentage 424 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 3: on how much it's true. So maybe they're I don't 425 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,119 Speaker 3: want to say twisting the story, but maybe we'll call 426 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 3: it a little revisionist history. But if you believe Arthur 427 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 3: at his word, then yeah, it definitely does change the 428 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 3: way we view Bill Belichick's next coaching situation, because in 429 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 3: my mind, it had to be a I'm shopping for 430 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 3: the groceries and eating them and cooking them and not 431 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 3: a oh, I'll just come in and be the be 432 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,160 Speaker 3: the team guy and coach and worry about everything else. 433 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: You guys can handle that. 434 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think this actually helps Belichick. 435 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 1: I agree forward. 436 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you believe him it, Yeah, I believe him. 437 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 2: I don't think Arthur Blank. Let's just say Belichick was like, no, 438 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 2: I need full control, and Arthur Blank is like, let 439 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 2: me be one hundred thousand percent clear. He never asked 440 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 2: for a full control over personnel. I believe Arthur Blank. Sure, 441 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:59,120 Speaker 2: And I believe this helps Belichick because I just don't 442 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 2: believe he's coached his final game in the NFL. And 443 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 2: now that we know that he went into the Falcons 444 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 2: interviews both of them and didn't want personnel control, He's like, 445 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 2: Terry Fontt knows your guy. 446 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: Great. Sounds good to me. 447 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 3: Doesn't sound like Belichick though, right, yeah, right, the personality 448 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 3: profile from. 449 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 2: What we have on them, I could see other teams 450 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: with the shifty eyes like really doesn't want any control Belichick. 451 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 2: They could still be skeptical of this, but the fact 452 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 2: that Blank is saying no, no, no, very inclusive, very collaborative. 453 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 2: That's been one of the biggest marks on his resume 454 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,439 Speaker 2: is he's not known as that guy. And there are 455 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 2: some front offices that are like, no, we don't really 456 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 2: want to change everything here. It's funny because the knock 457 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 2: on Belichick is he wants full control, but the front offices. 458 00:22:56,560 --> 00:23:01,400 Speaker 1: They went fully. Everyone always wants control power. I think 459 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: he's back next year, is what it boils down to, 460 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 1: and much I agree. I think there'll be a There'll 461 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 1: be a spot. 462 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 3: And you know what a kind of personal story kind 463 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 3: of reminds me of you know, when you get married 464 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 3: this this happened to me, It didn't happen to everyone else. 465 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 1: Maybe that's why they're still married. 466 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 3: You know, everything's great and hunky dory until you move 467 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 3: in together really and you get married and and then 468 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 3: things start to change. So maybe it was one of 469 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 3: those spots where on the surface Bill was like, yeah, 470 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 3: I don't want control you guys, and then you give 471 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 3: him the job and he's like. 472 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I would tweat this just a little 473 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: bit here, like. 474 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 3: It I just I don't buy the fact that Bill Belichick, 475 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 3: at the twilight of his coaching career, is just going 476 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 3: to morph into this team player, right like. He hasn't 477 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 3: done that for twenty years in New England, and now 478 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 3: we're hearing a lot of negative stuff about Tom and 479 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 3: he had an offer to stay and he's like, I 480 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 3: don't want to deal with that anymore. So it just 481 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 3: I it kind of conflicts a lot of the things 482 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 3: that we've also heard about Bill, which is why, as 483 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 3: much as I want to believe Arthur Blank something to tell, 484 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 3: that's not the full story. 485 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 2: M h. 486 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: You know, I'll say this. 487 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 2: The last point I want to make is we always 488 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 2: talk about bridge quarterbacks. We've never talked about bridge coaches, right, 489 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,879 Speaker 2: Like he's the ultimate bridge coach. Yeah, there's got to 490 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,439 Speaker 2: be an organization next year that is in a spot 491 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 2: where it's like, look, either one of two things. Either 492 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 2: we're great, like we're on the cusp of being great, 493 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 2: maybe say the Cowboys, maybe the Eagles, right. 494 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,639 Speaker 6: Bills, right, like right. 495 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 2: We heard those rumors of hey, you get Belichick in here. 496 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,160 Speaker 2: He's only going to coach for a couple more years. 497 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 2: He might be the guy to take the Bills and 498 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 2: take him across the finish line. Or the Cowboys are 499 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 2: so there could be a fit like that, or like 500 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 2: you're saying, there's a team like the Saints, who they're good, 501 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 2: they're probably not true Super Bowl contenders. But with Belichick, 502 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 2: hey man, he comes in here, he breaks the record, 503 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,679 Speaker 2: We're gonna win a bunch of games a good amount, 504 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 2: or we're gonna be known as the organization he won 505 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 2: with in terms of surpassing Shula. 506 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 4: Why not. 507 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 2: He's a great bridge coach. I know he's not gonna 508 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 2: be your coach of the future for the next ten years, 509 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 2: but that doesn't stop teams from getting a bridge quarterback. 510 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 1: Why can't it be the same thing with the coach. 511 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 3: I think if I was a coach in today's NFL 512 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,919 Speaker 3: and I didn't have Mahomes as my quarterback or Josh Allen, 513 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 3: I'd want to go to the NFC like that would 514 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 3: be like my first choice, and then the second choice 515 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 3: would be the NFC South cause it's just you can 516 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 3: win that division clearly with. 517 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: You know, shoe string and bubblegum. 518 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 3: You know, you tie together Baker Mayfield in a decent defense, 519 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 3: you can win that division. So like that, like the 520 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 3: destination matters and going to Atlanta, I thought was a 521 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 3: really good spot. Like I really thought that they could 522 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:58,119 Speaker 3: have won based off of the landscape of that division. 523 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: And and some of the tools that were olready in 524 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: the tool shed for the Falcons. 525 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 3: The quarterback situation obviously needed to be addressed, but let's 526 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 3: be honest, there's a lot of teams that have that 527 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:08,920 Speaker 3: problem going into the offseason, so it's not like that 528 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 3: was a unique problem for Atlanta to have, But a 529 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 3: lot of the other players on that roster were solid. 530 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 3: I think I feel the same about New Orleans, Like 531 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 3: you know, the Saints kind of have that team where 532 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 3: you figure out a way to get things to all 533 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 3: work together, and they've got they've got a culture, they've 534 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 3: got a decent fan base down there. It's a tough 535 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 3: home field. Like I the NFC, the NFC South would 536 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:31,400 Speaker 3: be where I would focus while I was built. 537 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, Like think of Kirk Cousins if he's not 538 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 2: back in Minnesota, someone's gonna pick him up, even though 539 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 2: he's not the quarterback of their future against on the 540 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 2: plus side of thirty five, you know he's still gonna 541 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 2: have a gig. I don't know why it can't be 542 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 2: similar with the coach with Belichick's credentials. There's got to 543 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 2: be a fit. I just I don't think it's over. 544 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,400 Speaker 2: I know it's not over for this guy either. Mister 545 00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 2: Isaac lohen Kron, he is just getting freaking warmed up 546 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:02,919 Speaker 2: over here.

I can't stand him I as 607 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: a Jets fan, but you gotta respect greatness. 608 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 5: You know. 609 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 2: It's funny, that's where you and I can bond a 610 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 2: little bit because I've always loved the Dolphins. And the 611 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 2: funny thing is the Dolphins have been so far away 612 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 2: from contending these last two decades. I really don't even 613 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 2: hate the Patriots. You can't, that's how bad the Dolphins 614 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 2: have been. Like I hated the Bills growing up because 615 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 2: the Bills got in the Dolphins way. 616 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 3: Heat was always mine with the Knicks in the nineties, 617 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 3: like those playoff series in the late nineties, PJ. 618 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 2: Brown, Hick tossing, Charlie Ward and. 619 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 1: Oakley and Ewing just going absolutely berserk. 620 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 2: Are we getting a little bit like that in the 621 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 2: NFL now with Mahomes We mentioned Jordan, Yeah, six and 622 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 2: eight years and think how many legacies he either prevented 623 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 2: or stunted. Where you got Reggie Miller, Patrick Ewing, Sean Camp, 624 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 2: Gary Payton, like all these guys, carl Alone, John Stockton 625 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 2: winning rings because of Jordan. 626 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 1: A big part of that was Jordan. It's so it's 627 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 1: so true. 628 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 3: I mean, you think about the great players, and to 629 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 3: be fair, Burrows the only guy that's beat and Brady, 630 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 3: Like Burrow and Brady are the only two guys in 631 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 3: the big moments that have figured out a way, and 632 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 3: I guess you could really say the defense for Brady 633 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 3: in that Super Bowl was really the difference. 634 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: But Joe Burrow, I mean maybe he is the last 635 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 1: hope to give another team a chance during this little 636 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 1: run here that we're current. 637 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 3: Like the Mahomes era, right ivery, if every generation has 638 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 3: an error like the Taylor Swift eras this is the 639 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 3: Mahomes error were in right now. 640 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 2: And think how differently things would be. Go back to 641 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 2: the Mahomes his first Super Bowl, Yeah, that was against 642 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 2: the Niners. In Jimmy Garoppo, What if Jimmy G wins 643 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 2: a ring? 644 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 3: Totally different conversation, right, story about Jimmy G this week 645 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 3: is just bizarre. 646 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 2: Oh man, we'll get to that. He gets popped for 647 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 2: two game suspension. He's expected to ask for a refund 648 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:06,239 Speaker 2: as well as Yeah, it's probably gonna be cut by 649 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 2: the team. 650 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 1: It's who. 651 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 2: But then you think about the last two of course, 652 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 2: brock Purty, we're not We're talking about the way they're 653 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 2: talked about the light, the way the perception perception change legacy, Yeah, 654 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 2: or Jalen hurts the previous year, what is the twenty 655 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 2: twenty three season like for Jalen Hurts and the way 656 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 2: he's talked about if the Eagles beat the Chiefs last year, 657 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 2: so different. 658 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 3: I think the eagles big problem though, is those coordinators 659 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 3: leave in town. Like I think they probably still struggled 660 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 3: this year even if they win that Super Bowl, if 661 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 3: both coordinators bolt. 662 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 1: But there's a lot of Jalen Hurts talk that probably 663 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: doesn't happen this year, right. 664 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 3: Especially early in the season. Yeah, I think, And frankly, 665 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 3: I think the Niners are kind of in that same boat. 666 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 3: Like it just it's really hard to raise your. 667 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 1: Level after losing the Super Bowl. I think it's easier 668 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: in the playoffs when you could smell it, but in 669 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 1: the beginning of the season, like the Chiefs are going 670 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: to be in the same boat, and the Chiefs struggled, 671 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: you know a little more towards the middle of the 672 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: season this year. But that hangover is a real thing. 673 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 3: That football season is longer, and it's only getting longer 674 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 3: early playing the Eagles are playing in. 675 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:22,719 Speaker 1: Brazil to start the year. 676 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 3: Like, It's just it's a long year, and that hangover 677 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 3: is a thing when you already had been to the end, 678 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 3: you fell short, and now you have to start the 679 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 3: game all over again and go from level one up. 680 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 2: It's a it's a tough mindset to have, it is, absolutely, 681 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 2: it is no doubt.

They're at 770 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,880 Speaker 3: home against Louisiana. App States, I think, one of the 771 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 3: best teams in the Sun Belt, beat Auburn earlier this year. 772 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:26,280 Speaker 3: They beat James Madison twice, so they've got the inside 773 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,359 Speaker 3: track for the Sun Belt title. They need to win 774 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 3: four out of their last five down the stretch in 775 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 3: order to clinch that top seed. They've got a decent 776 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 3: spot today against the Rage Occasions, who are kind of 777 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:35,879 Speaker 3: up and down this year. 778 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:37,919 Speaker 1: So I'll take app State on the money line. 779 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 3: IPFW the Mastodons of Purdue Fort Wayne. They are at 780 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 3: Detroit today, and really this is more of a play 781 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 3: against Detroit. Detroit won their first game of the season 782 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 3: last time out. I don't know if you guys saw it, 783 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,839 Speaker 3: but there was like a court storm of one rush. 784 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 3: We have to fade Detroit in this game. So we'll 785 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 3: put IPFW the Mast on the money line, and then 786 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 3: finally I'm fading my LaSalle Explorers today. You guys can't 787 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:05,359 Speaker 3: see this, we're not on the stream, but I've got 788 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 3: my LaSalle sweatshirt on this morning. I used to work there, 789 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,319 Speaker 3: so I've got a pretty inside track of what their 790 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 3: program is. 791 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:12,719 Speaker 1: And they're not good this year.

They've already won sixteen 796 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 1: games this year. 797 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,280 Speaker 3: They haven't won twenty since way back in twenty fourteen, 798 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 3: which was one of the last times they made the tourneys. 799 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 1: So I like this UMass team. They're big on the glass. 800 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 1: Lsal's very size deficient, So. 801 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,839 Speaker 3: We'll put UMass money Line IPFW money Line app State 802 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 3: on the money line again plus one twenty two over 803 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 3: at bet MGM.

I almost 848 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 1: sent you a scream shower. 849 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 2: I'm like, whoa the winless team favorite? 850 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 1: All right? 851 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 2: Coming up next is this guy the fall Guy that 852 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,279 Speaker 2: is on the way. Oh, good morning to you. Hope 853 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,399 Speaker 2: everything is fine in your world. Brian No Jared Smith 854 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 2: with you here on Fox Sports Radio. We were broadcasting 855 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 2: live from the tirack dot Com studios.

So 859 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:14,319 Speaker 2: the Niners they lost the Super Bowl and then they 860 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:17,640 Speaker 2: got rid of their defensive coordinator. They got rid of 861 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 2: Steve Wilkes one and done one year there as the 862 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 2: DC and out and Kyle Shanahan said it just it 863 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:28,800 Speaker 2: wasn't the right fit. So the question becomes is he 864 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 2: the scapegoat? Does he become the fall guy? And I think, Jared, 865 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 2: when you look at this, like just first blush, it 866 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 2: definitely seems like that. 867 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. 868 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 2: But when you stop and think about this and you 869 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 2: hear some of these comments where Nick Bosa right after 870 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, he was like, the zone read got 871 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:50,560 Speaker 2: us a couple of times. We could have been more 872 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 2: prepared there. 873 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:54,879 Speaker 1: It's like whoa whoa boy? Right? 874 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 2: Like, and then you have Kyle Shanahan, who detailed this, 875 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,080 Speaker 2: and there were other stories written where Steve Wilks he 876 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 2: didn't have the same background with the defense that they 877 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 2: run with the Niners, and he was playing catchup, and 878 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 2: for most of the season it was okay, but it 879 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 2: really showed up in these bigger moments where the Niners 880 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,880 Speaker 2: defense they ranked third in the league during the season, 881 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 2: they only allowed seventeen point five points per game, but 882 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 2: that ballooned up to twenty five point seven in the playoffs. 883 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:29,359 Speaker 2: And you could sit there and say, well, I mean, 884 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 2: you're playing the best teams. Well, you're playing the Packers, right, 885 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,360 Speaker 2: You're playing the Lions. Of course, you're playing the Chiefs. 886 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,400 Speaker 2: I expected to balloon a little bit. But man, that 887 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:43,120 Speaker 2: Niners defense cheered, especially against the Packers and the Lions, 888 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 2: left a lot to be desired. And I think on 889 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,840 Speaker 2: the offensive side of the ball, for whatever reason, it 890 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 2: clicks in your brain a little bit better, where it's like, 891 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 2: if this offensive coordinator doesn't have experience with this particular 892 00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 2: style of offen that we've run here for years, and 893 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,040 Speaker 2: you're playing catchup, I think you'd be like, yeah, it 894 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,760 Speaker 2: wasn't the greatest fit. But for some reason, on defense, 895 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 2: it just sounds more like an excuse. I don't think 896 00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 2: it is, and I don't think by firing Steve Wilkes, 897 00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:17,320 Speaker 2: this just takes the heat and the scrutiny off of 898 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan. Anyone who was saying, what are you doing 899 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:23,919 Speaker 2: taking the ball in overtime is still saying that. Yeah, 900 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,879 Speaker 2: I believe the Niners where they say it just wasn't 901 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 2: a great fit. We love the guy, but not a 902 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,880 Speaker 2: great fit for the defense, run and the way we 903 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 2: do things. 904 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 3: Sometimes it happens like that, agreed, I don't it sounds 905 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,840 Speaker 3: a lot less scapegoaty when you lay it out in 906 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 3: playing terms, like if you just say the Niners lost 907 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl, the direct reaction is Steve Wilks got fired, 908 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 3: like that was the next thing that happened the day 909 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,919 Speaker 3: or two days after the Niners lost the Super Bowl. 910 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,760 Speaker 1: On the surface, it appears that it's a scapegoat firing. 911 00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 3: But then you dig a little deeper, and you know, 912 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:03,319 Speaker 3: things were difficult for San Francisco this year. They started great, 913 00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:06,560 Speaker 3: defense was great to start and Hafunga got hurt, which 914 00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 3: is their best I think one of their best overall 915 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,200 Speaker 3: players period. You know, he was kind of like the 916 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:15,320 Speaker 3: run stopper sideline to sideline box safety that could defend 917 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 3: like kind of that glue between the linebacker level and 918 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:19,319 Speaker 3: the secondary level. 919 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:24,000 Speaker 1: And you saw a big dip in efficiency across the board. 920 00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:24,880 Speaker 1: Like I won't bore you. 921 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 3: With the NERD numbers, but the Niners this year, you know, 922 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 3: a little more middle of the pack than they probably 923 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 3: should be with their personnel. Then we just heard a 924 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:34,600 Speaker 3: couple days ago that Eric Armstead has been playing the 925 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:36,800 Speaker 3: last month of the season with a torn meniscus. I 926 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 3: think something I don't know, but you're talking about two 927 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,440 Speaker 3: impact players. Hafungo, who's like so important in the run 928 00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:46,320 Speaker 3: game and an Armstead, who's like your big run stopper 929 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 3: up front, have both been compromised this year. 930 00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 1: So you can make some. 931 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 3: Personnel excuses why the defense was a little bit shaky 932 00:44:55,239 --> 00:45:01,280 Speaker 3: this year. I'm hearing that this was more scheme the results. 933 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 3: I think there was a bit of a disconnect in 934 00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 3: the locker room with what the Niners wanted to do, 935 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,480 Speaker 3: the type of personnel they had, and the type of 936 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:14,080 Speaker 3: scheme that Steve was running. And you saw it at 937 00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 3: points this year, right they moved him from the box 938 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 3: to the field they tried to change some things in 939 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:22,280 Speaker 3: the secondary after that Vikings lost and where Kirk Cousins 940 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 3: went absolutely berserk on that secondary. They tried to switch 941 00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 3: some things around and it just never, I guess clicked. 942 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:31,160 Speaker 3: But let's be honest, Brian, you watched the first half 943 00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:34,880 Speaker 3: of that Super Bowl. The Niners defense was the story. 944 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,880 Speaker 3: So it's really hard to say, oh, yep, scapegoat, you know, 945 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 3: that's why the Niners lost. 946 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 1: They're just kind of cleaning house. I think it was 947 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 1: something deeper than that. 948 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:47,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, And look, the last impression is what matters most. 949 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 2: You're right, because the Niners defense played really well in 950 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,719 Speaker 2: the first half. The Chiefs helped him out with the 951 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 2: Pacheco fumble, but all things considered, holding the Chiefs to 952 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 2: three points and a half of football pretty darn good. 953 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:00,920 Speaker 2: You take that every single time. But it's sort of 954 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:05,879 Speaker 2: like the role reversal from Super Bowl fifty four four 955 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,760 Speaker 2: years prior, right where for three and a half quarters 956 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 2: Mahomes was not good, but he was at the end 957 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 2: and that's all we really remember, you know, like Jimmy 958 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 2: Gett outplayed Mahomes throughout most of that game, and no 959 00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 2: one remembers that because Mahomes got it done, you know, 960 00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 2: midway through the fourth quarter to the end, and Jimmy 961 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:25,720 Speaker 2: g didn't. 962 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 1: And so that's how it goes. So it's tough, man. 963 00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 2: If you look at Steve Wilkes going forward, though, Jared, 964 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 2: this is really damaging, really damaging, because I think it's 965 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 2: far worse to have the dudes and to not get 966 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 2: it done. Yeah, then to not have the dudes. And 967 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 2: it's like, well, if you're a coach or a quarterback, 968 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:50,520 Speaker 2: you could be like, well, I mean, look at Justin Fields, 969 00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:53,520 Speaker 2: who's he throwing two over there? Sam Darnold with the Jets, 970 00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:56,279 Speaker 2: Like who's the supporting cast over there? If you're a 971 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 2: coach like Frank Reich with Carolina, and you could say, 972 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:02,319 Speaker 2: my goodness, it was slim Dickens over there. But if 973 00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:06,320 Speaker 2: you've got the guys and you had Robert Salah great 974 00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:10,200 Speaker 2: success as the defensive coordinator there, Demiko Ryan's right before 975 00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:13,759 Speaker 2: Steve Wilkes great success as the defensive coordinator. And the 976 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:17,279 Speaker 2: last thing you remember is Steve Wilkes coming up short 977 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 2: on that stage and then the comments right afterward of 978 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 2: we could have been more prepared for this and that 979 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:24,799 Speaker 2: that is really tough. 980 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:27,319 Speaker 1: For the guy going forward. There's a couple other things 981 00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: to consider here. 982 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:31,439 Speaker 3: John Lynch might have seen, or I guess you could 983 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:33,800 Speaker 3: say Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch might have seen the 984 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:37,919 Speaker 3: landscape of coaches available and said, you know what, let's 985 00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:41,440 Speaker 3: take a chance here. Mike Rabels out there, there's guys 986 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:46,759 Speaker 3: out there that are really talented at defense. Maybe it's 987 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 3: like a grass is always greener on the other sides 988 00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:51,240 Speaker 3: kind of vibe, like they know what they had with Wilkes. 989 00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:55,040 Speaker 3: It was okay, it wasn't elite, it wasn't Demiko Ryans, 990 00:47:55,160 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 3: Robert Salah, but it wasn't bottom of the barrow like 991 00:47:57,840 --> 00:47:59,520 Speaker 3: we can't. They were in the Super Bowl and they 992 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 3: held the chief three points in the first half like 993 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:06,120 Speaker 3: it still was serviceable. But they obviously felt that there 994 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:08,759 Speaker 3: was a fit and a scheme difference. So and they 995 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 3: probably looked at some of the other coaches out there 996 00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 3: and said, you know what, there's a lot of good 997 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 3: options out there. Maybe because of the timing of everything, 998 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,960 Speaker 3: this is a good Hey, let's just move on. Right, 999 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,279 Speaker 3: We've got the the the obvious narrative, Oh they lost 1000 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,719 Speaker 3: Super Bowl, We'll move on. And there's there's some good 1001 00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:26,400 Speaker 3: talent out there in the coaching world right now, So 1002 00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:29,479 Speaker 3: it could be a mix of both. Where they weren't 1003 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:32,319 Speaker 3: really quite sold on Steve anymore, but then they look at, 1004 00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:34,560 Speaker 3: oh man, there's some really good coaches out there that 1005 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:36,719 Speaker 3: we can go get right now, So it could be 1006 00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:38,960 Speaker 3: a little bit of both. I'm fascinated to see which 1007 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:43,480 Speaker 3: direction they go. Obviously, if you ask me, of all 1008 00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:45,719 Speaker 3: the coordinator jobs that are open right now, I think 1009 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:47,920 Speaker 3: the Niners defensive course, it has to be right top 1010 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 3: of the heap, like it's got to be at the 1011 00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:50,439 Speaker 3: top or near the top. 1012 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:52,279 Speaker 1: So I think they'll get a lot of really good 1013 00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:53,239 Speaker 1: candidates for this job. 1014 00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:55,040 Speaker 3: Varibel was the first one that came to mind, but 1015 00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:58,480 Speaker 3: there's others, and I'm assuming that they're kind of looking 1016 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 3: at the landscape saying, you know what, there's probably better 1017 00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:04,239 Speaker 3: options out there, and it's not like Steve is gangbusters here, 1018 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:07,359 Speaker 3: so let's make the move. It'll be clean, it'll be quick, 1019 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 3: and we'll move on and we'll figure out a way 1020 00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:09,719 Speaker 3: to get someone else in. 1021 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:12,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Niners, they really want to stay true to 1022 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:17,080 Speaker 2: that Seahawks style defense to cover three. Remember when Earl 1023 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 2: Thomas was back there, as the loan safety and just 1024 00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:21,800 Speaker 2: go in sideline to sideline. 1025 00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 1: That's what they truly want to do. 1026 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 2: But that wasn't Steve Wilkes's experience, that's not his background. 1027 00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:31,000 Speaker 2: So yeah, it seems, and I get the arguments. There's 1028 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,680 Speaker 2: a promo running with Rob Barker saying, would you have 1029 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 2: fired the guy if you won the Super Bowl and 1030 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:38,919 Speaker 2: they were might close to winning it? They might have, yeah, 1031 00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 2: but it would have been harder to do so, agreed. 1032 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:44,359 Speaker 2: I'll put it this way. If they won and fired him, 1033 00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:47,160 Speaker 2: you know, for sure, it's a fit thing. 1034 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:48,279 Speaker 1: It's a scheme thing. 1035 00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 2: With them losing the Super Bowl, you're kind of like, eh, 1036 00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:54,480 Speaker 2: one eyebrow raised, you know, this is a scapeboat type thing. 1037 00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:56,480 Speaker 1: I don't think it is, but I get how it 1038 00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:58,439 Speaker 1: can look like that. I don't think it is either. 1039 00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:01,719 Speaker 3: I think this was something that was going to happen regardless, 1040 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:03,840 Speaker 3: and it would have been a much tougher story. 1041 00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 1: Pr wise, if they would have won. Yeah, right, hey, 1042 00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:08,400 Speaker 1: I hear you on that. How about the Chiefs? Right, 1043 00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 1: if we look at the Chiefs going forward? 1044 00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:15,120 Speaker 2: I love this from the the the celebration, Here was 1045 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,320 Speaker 2: what Chris Jones was saying about the next season. 1046 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:24,280 Speaker 3: Goods going, No, well, dibat. 1047 00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:30,680 Speaker 1: The guys at at the parades. You can't take anything there. 1048 00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:34,000 Speaker 1: I mean, these guys are so drunk. It's next level. 1049 00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:36,840 Speaker 3: Like you at a frat party in college, Like, do 1050 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:39,840 Speaker 3: you want anything that you said during that time televised 1051 00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 3: or publicized? 1052 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,560 Speaker 2: You know, it's funny. I'm glad you said that, because 1053 00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:47,680 Speaker 2: I had a flashback. Every single time I went out 1054 00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:52,000 Speaker 2: and my friends in college, the story everyone said was like, 1055 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 2: we're playing football tomorrow. That's what everyone said. And I 1056 00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,560 Speaker 2: was always like the stone cold, sober one, and I'd 1057 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 2: fall for it every time. 1058 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:01,880 Speaker 1: I'm like, let's do it. 1059 00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:04,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's play some ball. The next day, I'm knocking 1060 00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:08,320 Speaker 2: on their doors. No one is answering, nobody in that. 1061 00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:10,799 Speaker 2: It's very similar to what you're laying out right. 1062 00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,560 Speaker 1: Believe anything you hear at these parades, guys. These guys 1063 00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 1: are just lit up past their skulls. 1064 00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:20,360 Speaker 2: How about the chiefs man they've got? Chris Jones is 1065 00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:24,279 Speaker 2: a free agent, Lagurious Sneid is a free agent. Those 1066 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 2: are the big name guys. You also sprinkling, Willie Gay, 1067 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 2: Drew Tranquell. 1068 00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:30,560 Speaker 1: There's a number of guys here. 1069 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 2: I don't see how they pay both Chris Jones and 1070 00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:34,840 Speaker 2: Lagerious Snead. 1071 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:36,920 Speaker 1: You can't pay all of them, that's right now. 1072 00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 3: Now the CAP's going up, and that there there is 1073 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:43,479 Speaker 3: something to be said about teams or players taking less 1074 00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:45,960 Speaker 3: to try to be a dynasty. And I'm sure they 1075 00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,440 Speaker 3: will get a hometown discount on a lot of these guys. 1076 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:50,799 Speaker 1: But it's math like, you can't keep all of them. 1077 00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, they're gonna have to make some tough choices. Man, 1078 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:55,799 Speaker 1: who do you keep? 1079 00:51:56,640 --> 00:51:59,600 Speaker 2: Areold to Chris Jones or Lagerious Snead? 1080 00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:03,720 Speaker 3: I think I think Sneid is more of an impact 1081 00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:07,719 Speaker 3: position in terms of the premium positions in the NFL. Right, 1082 00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:10,600 Speaker 3: we viewed corner a little differently than nose tackle. But 1083 00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:13,359 Speaker 3: Chris Jones is not your average nose tackle, and that's 1084 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,880 Speaker 3: what makes him very different. Like he's a guy that 1085 00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:20,359 Speaker 3: rushes the passer and when called upon, can stop the run. 1086 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,960 Speaker 3: That's a very rare trait in today's NFL. But Sneid 1087 00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:27,160 Speaker 3: has this kind of nose for the ball that makes 1088 00:52:27,280 --> 00:52:30,400 Speaker 3: him sort of revis Island in a sense. And that 1089 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 3: that I mean it really tough. I think those two 1090 00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 3: guys are maybe the best two free agents in the 1091 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 3: entire class of this defensive free agent class. 1092 00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:43,680 Speaker 1: And the fact that they both play for the same team, 1093 00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 1: it's very unique. 1094 00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:49,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's a tough one, man, because Chris Jones, 1095 00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 2: he is he's like a D tackle slash d n Yeah, 1096 00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 2: though sometimes he's an end. 1097 00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:55,439 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1098 00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:58,880 Speaker 2: And it's not to take anything away from Lugerius Snead. 1099 00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:02,280 Speaker 2: He is really really good and I think really underrated. 1100 00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:05,120 Speaker 2: I saw a couple of things written about, Hey, how 1101 00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:09,279 Speaker 2: about the Eagles with luxurious snuff Man. It's like, oh, 1102 00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:13,440 Speaker 2: that would be uh, that would make quite the difference 1103 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:15,560 Speaker 2: right there, if they're able to make that happen. Because 1104 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:17,520 Speaker 2: and James Bradberry, it was a long. 1105 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:21,759 Speaker 3: Year over there. Philly's defense needs a big time renovation. Yeah, 1106 00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:23,600 Speaker 3: and you saw it with Gannon. You saw great the 1107 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:25,920 Speaker 3: Cardinals played down the stretch of last season. I mean, 1108 00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:28,920 Speaker 3: I I I think Philly's defense, I think Philly in 1109 00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:31,600 Speaker 3: general needs a bit of a of a tweak with 1110 00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:32,480 Speaker 3: the coaching staff. 1111 00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:32,680 Speaker 2: Like that. 1112 00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:35,279 Speaker 3: That coaching staff and how they push those buttons and 1113 00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:37,800 Speaker 3: get those pieces to fit together. That might be the 1114 00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:40,000 Speaker 3: early story of next year because that. 1115 00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:45,080 Speaker 1: NFC east Man I it's it's it's a it's available, 1116 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:46,760 Speaker 1: it is available for the taking. 1117 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:47,400 Speaker 4: It is. 1118 00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:50,839 Speaker 2: It definitely is. And uh, I'm so curious to see 1119 00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:53,880 Speaker 2: what the Chiefs roster looks like. They're gonna have some 1120 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 2: positive tweaks. They're gonna have some negative tweaks. You can't 1121 00:53:57,160 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 2: keep everybody they kept. 1122 00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 1: That's important. That's a huge, huge, get right there. 1123 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:05,399 Speaker 2: But I think that sometimes we fall into this trap 1124 00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:07,359 Speaker 2: of thinking they've got Mahomes, it'll be fine. 1125 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:09,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like the difference is Mahomes had a top 1126 00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:11,399 Speaker 3: ten Like, they don't even make it to this point 1127 00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 3: if they don't have that top ten defense. It's right, 1128 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:15,120 Speaker 3: like like the defense. I know Mahomes won the Super 1129 00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:17,360 Speaker 3: Bowl and there's no doubting that. I think the defense 1130 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,800 Speaker 3: was a big reason too. But they don't get to 1131 00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:21,200 Speaker 3: the super Bowl without that defense. 1132 00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:25,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. No, they had a sensational year. They absolutely did. 1133 00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:25,960 Speaker 1: All Right. 1134 00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:30,279 Speaker 2: He's Jared Smith FSR betting analyst.

You know this 1164 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:05,560 Speaker 8: is actually you kind didn't have a one seed they 1165 00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:07,000 Speaker 8: won the national title, but they were in a one 1166 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:09,320 Speaker 8: seed last year. But Yukon is in line for a 1167 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:12,279 Speaker 8: one seed and Marquette could work their way onto the 1168 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 8: one line with a win today. 1169 00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:17,840 Speaker 1: So you know, you got a great big East matchup. 1170 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:20,440 Speaker 8: You've got you know, Shaka Smart in a role that 1171 00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:23,600 Speaker 8: he's thrived in so much as as a head coach 1172 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:26,640 Speaker 8: back in his days at VCU, even when he was 1173 00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:28,320 Speaker 8: at Texas and now at Marquette. 1174 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:29,200 Speaker 1: As an underdog. 1175 00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:32,800 Speaker 8: You know, Yukon's about a seven point favorite today and 1176 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:37,360 Speaker 8: you know, the the job that Connecticut has done. 1177 00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 1: So far this year and Dan Hurley when you think 1178 00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:41,719 Speaker 1: about last year. 1179 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:46,800 Speaker 8: Guys, when you lose Adamisnogo, you lose Jordan Hawkins, you 1180 00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:49,880 Speaker 8: lose Andre Jackson. I mean, those are three pros that 1181 00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:54,040 Speaker 8: they lost in a national championship season and they haven't 1182 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:54,640 Speaker 8: skipped a beat. 1183 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:56,760 Speaker 1: They have not lost a game since Christmas. 1184 00:56:57,440 --> 00:57:01,000 Speaker 8: They are on the longest winning streak in college basketball. 1185 00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:04,240 Speaker 8: And you know, they've dealt with injuries at different points 1186 00:57:04,280 --> 00:57:07,279 Speaker 8: this year too, and they've been able to overcome it. 1187 00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 8: You know, Donovan Klingen, the big man who kind of 1188 00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:13,880 Speaker 8: stepped in for uh, you know Adamas Snogo has hasn't 1189 00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:14,759 Speaker 8: really skipped a beat. 1190 00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:15,200 Speaker 1: Uh. 1191 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 8: They went out to the transfer portal brought in Cam Spencer, 1192 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:21,160 Speaker 8: who uh you know, was at Rutgers last year, started 1193 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:23,520 Speaker 8: his career at Loyola Maryland and then on the other 1194 00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:26,280 Speaker 8: side for Marquette. You know, this is a team that 1195 00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:29,640 Speaker 8: had a lot of preseason hype bout out early last year. 1196 00:57:29,880 --> 00:57:31,800 Speaker 8: But this is a team that won the Big East 1197 00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:36,160 Speaker 8: both regular and conference championship at the Garden last year, 1198 00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:39,000 Speaker 8: and they two guys are on an eight game winning streak. 1199 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:41,200 Speaker 1: So look, there's a lot of good games today. 1200 00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:45,520 Speaker 8: But for me, uh, Marquette at Yukon, uh you know, 1201 00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:48,400 Speaker 8: Big East type of game. Tyler Kohlik if you haven't 1202 00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:52,000 Speaker 8: watched him, he's an absolute star h for Marquette. He's 1203 00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:54,880 Speaker 8: the type of guy you know very much, uh, you know, 1204 00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:58,520 Speaker 8: putting a you know, a proverbial thing out there, but 1205 00:57:58,600 --> 00:57:59,960 Speaker 8: he puts his team on his back when he had 1206 00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,200 Speaker 8: as an opportunity to do so. So a lot of 1207 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,680 Speaker 8: good games today, no doubt, but for me, that is 1208 00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:07,880 Speaker 8: the one that is appointment watching at three o'clock Eastern. 1209 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:09,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, And for those of you who don't know, 1210 00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:12,000 Speaker 3: Tim Shock as smart as an underdog is one of 1211 00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:15,840 Speaker 3: his favorite trends. So tough tough not to back Marquette 1212 00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:16,880 Speaker 3: getting some points today. 1213 00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:18,320 Speaker 1: Twenty one eight. 1214 00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:21,160 Speaker 8: And three said, twenty one eight and three at Marquette 1215 00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:24,720 Speaker 8: four zero to one. That's against the spread. The only 1216 00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:28,360 Speaker 8: time they did not cover against the closing number this year, 1217 00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:32,000 Speaker 8: and the closing number is, of course, the final point 1218 00:58:32,040 --> 00:58:34,280 Speaker 8: spread as the game tips off was when they were 1219 00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 8: out in Maui and they were playing Perdue. 1220 00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:38,920 Speaker 1: They lost by three as a three point underdog. So 1221 00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:39,360 Speaker 1: we'll see. 1222 00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:42,240 Speaker 8: You know, they're gonna be a popular underdog, and the 1223 00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:44,880 Speaker 8: market really hasn't moved a ton, so that always makes 1224 00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:45,360 Speaker 8: me worried. 1225 00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:48,480 Speaker 1: But you know, it's a it's a It's an incredible game, 1226 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,320 Speaker 1: for sure, it absolutely is. 1227 00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:53,400 Speaker 3: I think we've got one in the sec to Auburn 1228 00:58:53,480 --> 00:58:57,000 Speaker 3: in Kentucky and we just don't know what this Kentucky 1229 00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:59,560 Speaker 3: team is right lose at home Aganzaga, but some really 1230 00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:03,200 Speaker 3: high per file wins as well. You got Auburn at home, 1231 00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:06,160 Speaker 3: coming off of an interesting game against South Carolina where 1232 00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:08,680 Speaker 3: maybe the market was in a weird spot, but they 1233 00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:10,439 Speaker 3: just blew the doors off of the game. 1234 00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:10,840 Speaker 1: Cocks. 1235 00:59:11,160 --> 00:59:13,600 Speaker 3: Now you have to reload and face a really talented 1236 00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:18,280 Speaker 3: Kentucky team at home. Is Auburn laying too many points 1237 00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:18,800 Speaker 3: in this spot? 1238 00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:21,360 Speaker 8: Yeah, this is a game, to be honest, and it's 1239 00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:25,080 Speaker 8: always important. I have not bet personally, but we can 1240 00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:28,440 Speaker 8: run through it. You mentioned Auburn Jared at home. This 1241 00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:32,280 Speaker 8: is a team that is very jekyling hide to say 1242 00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:35,320 Speaker 8: the least in Auburn because they've got some losses that 1243 00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:36,439 Speaker 8: make you scratch your head. 1244 00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 1: Last Saturday, they went on. 1245 00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:40,520 Speaker 8: The road to Gainesville, tricky spot coming off of a 1246 00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:44,040 Speaker 8: rivalry win, but they got their doors blown off by Florida. 1247 00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:47,320 Speaker 8: But they're at home today, got college game Day going 1248 00:59:47,400 --> 00:59:49,960 Speaker 8: on right now as we speak there. 1249 00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:52,720 Speaker 1: And this is what they've done so far at home. 1250 00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 8: In the SEC January ninth against Texas A and M, 1251 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:59,000 Speaker 8: they were a six and a half point favorite. 1252 00:59:59,040 --> 00:59:59,920 Speaker 1: They won by eleven. 1253 01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:04,040 Speaker 8: January thirteenth against LSU thirteen and a half point favorite 1254 01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:08,080 Speaker 8: one by fifteen. January twentieth against Old Miss, they were 1255 01:00:08,120 --> 01:00:10,080 Speaker 8: a twelve and a half point favorite. They won by 1256 01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:14,160 Speaker 8: twenty three. Vanderbilt they played on January thirty first at home, 1257 01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,400 Speaker 8: they were a eighteen and a half point favorite one 1258 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:19,360 Speaker 8: by twenty seven. And then the game you alluded to 1259 01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:22,840 Speaker 8: Jared on Wednesday, they were a ten and a half 1260 01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 8: point favorite against actually I think it closed twelve against 1261 01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,760 Speaker 8: South Carolina and they won by forty. So this is 1262 01:00:28,760 --> 01:00:32,720 Speaker 8: a team that has just absolutely obliterated foes at home. 1263 01:00:33,160 --> 01:00:34,720 Speaker 8: And then you flip it on the other side, and 1264 01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:38,000 Speaker 8: Kentucky's just one of those conundrums, like what is Kentucky? 1265 01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:39,360 Speaker 1: Right? Who are you? 1266 01:00:39,720 --> 01:00:43,600 Speaker 8: You've beaten North Carolina on a neutral floor back in December, 1267 01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:47,760 Speaker 8: very impressive win, but then you also lost at home 1268 01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:52,200 Speaker 8: to UNC Wilmington. You lose to Gonzaga at home last 1269 01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:54,840 Speaker 8: week as a four point favorite, but they bounced back 1270 01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:56,919 Speaker 8: and won, you know, against Ole Miss. 1271 01:00:57,040 --> 01:01:00,640 Speaker 1: So this is a fascinating spot. I guess it forced 1272 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:01,000 Speaker 1: to play it. 1273 01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:04,200 Speaker 8: As crazy as it sounds, I might look to take 1274 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:09,440 Speaker 8: Kentucky here in this spot, just because of the talent 1275 01:01:09,560 --> 01:01:11,840 Speaker 8: that's on that roster and the upside that is there. 1276 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:14,520 Speaker 8: But now this is this is a game that I 1277 01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:16,880 Speaker 8: have not personally played. Very curious to see how this 1278 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:19,640 Speaker 8: one plays out, because you know, let's be honest to guys, 1279 01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:23,320 Speaker 8: I mean, Kentucky at times is allergic to playing defense. 1280 01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:27,240 Speaker 8: I mean they had a stretch of games where you 1281 01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:30,440 Speaker 8: lose to Florida in overtime ninety four to ninety one, 1282 01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:34,920 Speaker 8: you give up one hundred and three at home to Tennessee, 1283 01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:38,080 Speaker 8: and then you lose at home to Gonzaga, you know, 1284 01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:40,960 Speaker 8: losing three straight at Rup snapping that losing streak earlier 1285 01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 8: this week. So fascinating one, no doubt. And Auburn is 1286 01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:47,560 Speaker 8: a team you know, as you'll start to hear the 1287 01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:51,240 Speaker 8: ken palm, the torvik, those types of buzzwords being thrown 1288 01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:56,120 Speaker 8: around college basketball fodder, ken palm and the advanced numbers. 1289 01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:59,280 Speaker 8: They love Auburn and on the flip side, they don't 1290 01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:00,640 Speaker 8: really like Kentucky all that much. 1291 01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:02,520 Speaker 1: Kentucky, in the isa Ken Palm is in a top 1292 01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:03,280 Speaker 1: twenty five team. 1293 01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:07,000 Speaker 2: He's Tim Murray Vson, host college basketball expert joining us 1294 01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:09,600 Speaker 2: here in Fox Sports Radio. It's my favorite stat of 1295 01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:12,919 Speaker 2: the year so far so this season. Tim Top ten 1296 01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:16,600 Speaker 2: teams are just thirty two and thirty three on the 1297 01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:18,920 Speaker 2: road against unranked opponents. 1298 01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:21,760 Speaker 1: Wow, they got a losing record on the road. 1299 01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:25,280 Speaker 2: So it leads me to this, which emotion is stronger 1300 01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:28,160 Speaker 2: for you as the tournament isn't too far away. Is 1301 01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:31,600 Speaker 2: it a top ten team you have faith in or 1302 01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 2: is it a top ten team you don't have faith in? 1303 01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:36,600 Speaker 1: I think it's the latter. 1304 01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:39,840 Speaker 8: I think we're definitely going to see a lot of 1305 01:02:39,960 --> 01:02:44,480 Speaker 8: teams that are highly ranked, you know, be knocked off early. 1306 01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 8: Now that does come with a caveat. I do have 1307 01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:52,120 Speaker 8: confidence in Yukon and Purdue. Yes, I know Purdue. Yes, 1308 01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:54,480 Speaker 8: they lost last year in the first round of fairly Dickinson, 1309 01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:56,760 Speaker 8: I'm well aware lost to Saint Mary's two years ago 1310 01:02:56,760 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 8: in the sweet sixteen. But those two teams, to be honest, 1311 01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:02,880 Speaker 8: and if you want to throw in Houston, they they're 1312 01:03:02,920 --> 01:03:05,400 Speaker 8: the ones that don't really mess around. They're the ones 1313 01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:07,560 Speaker 8: that have gone on the road and taking care business. 1314 01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:10,800 Speaker 8: You know, last Saturday, Houston goes on the road. They're 1315 01:03:10,840 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 8: playing Cincinnati. To your point about that unique stat and 1316 01:03:14,600 --> 01:03:17,080 Speaker 8: the big twelve is even more outrageous. I think the 1317 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:20,320 Speaker 8: number is I want to say three and ten straight 1318 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:25,200 Speaker 8: up for top ten teams versus unranked teams in the 1319 01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:28,520 Speaker 8: Big twelve, and Houston took care business. They didn't cover 1320 01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:31,520 Speaker 8: against Cincinnati, But I throw Houston a little bit in there. 1321 01:03:31,560 --> 01:03:34,160 Speaker 8: But yeah, I mean it's every week, Brian. You're seeing 1322 01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:37,680 Speaker 8: different teams going out there and just getting knocked off. 1323 01:03:37,760 --> 01:03:39,920 Speaker 8: And I was just doing a running tally. I fell 1324 01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:42,600 Speaker 8: a little bit behind of those types of teams, and 1325 01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:45,520 Speaker 8: that we see it on a regular basis. And here's 1326 01:03:45,560 --> 01:03:48,800 Speaker 8: the thing, too, is the betting market is kind of 1327 01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:51,760 Speaker 8: agreeing with that. You're seeing a lot of these spots 1328 01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,880 Speaker 8: where the unranked team is the favorite right against against 1329 01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:58,800 Speaker 8: the top ten teams. So you know we'll see interesting 1330 01:03:58,880 --> 01:04:01,680 Speaker 8: spot today. I have bet at personally. But you know, 1331 01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:03,640 Speaker 8: history has told us if we go back to the 1332 01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:07,760 Speaker 8: Raycom days back in the late nineties and think about 1333 01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:11,480 Speaker 8: those Duke Blue Devils going down to Tallahassee, it always 1334 01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:14,000 Speaker 8: felt like Bobby Surah and the boys would get a 1335 01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:16,920 Speaker 8: win over Florida State or win over Duke. So you know, 1336 01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:20,200 Speaker 8: that's an interesting one today that I'm intrigued by. Might 1337 01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:23,520 Speaker 8: end up pulling the trigger a little bit on Florida State. 1338 01:04:23,920 --> 01:04:27,400 Speaker 8: Oklahoma is not unranked their twenty fifth, but they're taking 1339 01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:30,400 Speaker 8: on Kansas. And look at Kansas this year, guys, going 1340 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:33,480 Speaker 8: on the road. Kansas is a team that you know, 1341 01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:36,120 Speaker 8: is thought of very highly in the eyes of the 1342 01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:38,800 Speaker 8: AP poll voters. But the last time they went on 1343 01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:41,640 Speaker 8: the road, guess what happened against an unranked team. Lost 1344 01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:44,960 Speaker 8: by twenty nine, lost to Texas Tech by twenty nine. 1345 01:04:45,080 --> 01:04:46,880 Speaker 8: So you know, we'll see if it's a bounce back 1346 01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:50,520 Speaker 8: spot for Bill self squad. But it's it's fascinating and. 1347 01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:53,320 Speaker 1: You know one game that I'll give you that is 1348 01:04:53,560 --> 01:04:55,480 Speaker 1: going to be a hold your nose type of special. 1349 01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:57,200 Speaker 1: But it fits the Big twelve. 1350 01:04:57,600 --> 01:05:00,400 Speaker 8: West Virginia is not a very good basketball team right now, guys, 1351 01:05:00,760 --> 01:05:05,280 Speaker 8: but go into West Virginia weird travel spot. I think 1352 01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:07,800 Speaker 8: Baylor is going to have a battle on their hands today. 1353 01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:09,680 Speaker 8: We'll see. I mean, they're about a six and a 1354 01:05:09,720 --> 01:05:12,200 Speaker 8: half point under a favorite on the road at West 1355 01:05:12,280 --> 01:05:15,440 Speaker 8: Virginia and West Virginia on the you might as well 1356 01:05:15,640 --> 01:05:18,240 Speaker 8: just notch up a loss when they hit the road. 1357 01:05:18,560 --> 01:05:22,520 Speaker 8: But at home this year, they've beaten Texas, They've beaten Kansas, 1358 01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:25,440 Speaker 8: and they've beaten Cincinnati, a team that is fighting for 1359 01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:28,920 Speaker 8: an NCAA tournament Berth. So yeah, it is going to 1360 01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:32,800 Speaker 8: be a very interesting big dance because I think the 1361 01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:37,760 Speaker 8: number team number five through team number thirty five is 1362 01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:39,640 Speaker 8: very much kind. 1363 01:05:39,520 --> 01:05:40,760 Speaker 1: Of up in the air. 1364 01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:43,480 Speaker 8: And you know, look, last year we saw a team 1365 01:05:43,560 --> 01:05:46,280 Speaker 8: in Florida Atlantic make a magical run to the final four. 1366 01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:49,280 Speaker 8: We saw a team in San Diego State go to 1367 01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:52,840 Speaker 8: the national championship game. I would not be surprised if 1368 01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:57,160 Speaker 8: we're seeing some unique names in Glendale, Arizona in early April. 1369 01:05:58,120 --> 01:05:59,800 Speaker 3: Is there a name that you maybe want to throw 1370 01:05:59,840 --> 01:06:02,120 Speaker 3: out there right now? Hey, you know what, this is 1371 01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:04,640 Speaker 3: a mid major team, or this is a team that's 1372 01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:06,600 Speaker 3: a little bit under the radar high major team. Maybe 1373 01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:09,800 Speaker 3: that's you know, average, you know in their conference. Hey, 1374 01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:11,520 Speaker 3: this is a team to keep an eye on as 1375 01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:14,480 Speaker 3: we get closer to the tournament. Might be trending in 1376 01:06:14,520 --> 01:06:15,640 Speaker 3: a very positive direction. 1377 01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:17,880 Speaker 8: I mean the team, Jared, honestly that I was that 1378 01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:20,280 Speaker 8: I was high on for a little bit was New 1379 01:06:20,360 --> 01:06:22,760 Speaker 8: Mexico and they're starting to fall off. They lost last 1380 01:06:22,840 --> 01:06:25,720 Speaker 8: night in a really tricky spot against San Diego State. 1381 01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:28,919 Speaker 8: Big revenge spot New Mexico in the Mountain West. They've 1382 01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:31,480 Speaker 8: had some nice wins, but they've they've fallen a couple 1383 01:06:31,600 --> 01:06:33,640 Speaker 8: times here. So they're a team to keep an eye 1384 01:06:33,720 --> 01:06:37,480 Speaker 8: on in the Lobos. Really good guard play with Jalen 1385 01:06:37,560 --> 01:06:41,120 Speaker 8: House and Donovan Dent and Jamal Mashburn. But team them 1386 01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:44,360 Speaker 8: just a little bit down on because the size does 1387 01:06:44,480 --> 01:06:47,440 Speaker 8: worry me a little bit. A team that I think 1388 01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:50,160 Speaker 8: will win today and maybe get back in some winning 1389 01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:54,320 Speaker 8: ways is Colorado State, Nico Medved and that squad. They've 1390 01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:58,320 Speaker 8: got a legit, big time guard in Isaiah Stevens. I 1391 01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:01,160 Speaker 8: don't know if they make a I'll give you one 1392 01:07:01,320 --> 01:07:05,200 Speaker 8: Jared that really intrigues me. And it's not going too 1393 01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:07,920 Speaker 8: crazy off the radar, But this is a team that 1394 01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:12,720 Speaker 8: massively disappointed early on in the year and has really 1395 01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:15,400 Speaker 8: had some resurgence here. And that's Saint Mary's. And look, 1396 01:07:15,480 --> 01:07:17,680 Speaker 8: this is a team that has obviously been a I 1397 01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:21,080 Speaker 8: don't say household name, but a familiar name for college 1398 01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:23,960 Speaker 8: basketball folks. And the start of their year was an 1399 01:07:24,000 --> 01:07:27,800 Speaker 8: absolute disaster. They lost at home to Weaver State. They 1400 01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:30,200 Speaker 8: lost pretty much every toss up game that they had. 1401 01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:32,720 Speaker 8: They were getting, you know, blown out by some folks. 1402 01:07:33,280 --> 01:07:35,640 Speaker 8: They came out to Vegas and they got you know, 1403 01:07:35,880 --> 01:07:38,960 Speaker 8: run by San Diego State and Xavier by double digits 1404 01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:43,240 Speaker 8: both times. But since then, since Christmas, guys, they've turned 1405 01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:46,200 Speaker 8: it around. Haven't lost since Christmas. They are tied with 1406 01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:49,560 Speaker 8: Yukon for the longest winning streak in college basketball. So 1407 01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:51,720 Speaker 8: you know, this is a team that The reason you 1408 01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:53,919 Speaker 8: get a little bit worried backing a team like Saint 1409 01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:57,520 Speaker 8: Mary's making a deep run is that they're very slow, right, 1410 01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:00,880 Speaker 8: kind of UVA style, one of the lowest tempos in 1411 01:08:00,920 --> 01:08:03,520 Speaker 8: the country, top ten in defense. So you get a 1412 01:08:03,560 --> 01:08:06,960 Speaker 8: bit worried backing teams like that and seeing if they 1413 01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:08,040 Speaker 8: can make the deep run. 1414 01:08:08,160 --> 01:08:10,720 Speaker 1: But you know they're probably as of right now, guys. 1415 01:08:10,960 --> 01:08:13,400 Speaker 8: If you look at bracket Matrix, which is a really 1416 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:15,600 Speaker 8: good resource to have this time of year, which takes 1417 01:08:15,680 --> 01:08:18,840 Speaker 8: all of the bracketologists and kind of throws them together 1418 01:08:18,960 --> 01:08:21,760 Speaker 8: and one aggregate and spits out what the number is, 1419 01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:24,639 Speaker 8: they're probably on the seven line. And if they keep 1420 01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:27,720 Speaker 8: running the table, they'll have gonzag at home. Maybe they 1421 01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:29,760 Speaker 8: get up to a six, And you know that's a 1422 01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:32,400 Speaker 8: really juicy spot, you know, backing a team in a 1423 01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:35,519 Speaker 8: six spot in that portion of a bracket is always 1424 01:08:35,680 --> 01:08:38,760 Speaker 8: kind of ideal making a nice long run, and then 1425 01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:42,160 Speaker 8: you know, lastly, real quickly, you know, Indiana State's a 1426 01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:44,320 Speaker 8: team that just got knocked off. They're going to have 1427 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:46,840 Speaker 8: to win their conference tournament, I think, in order to 1428 01:08:46,880 --> 01:08:49,360 Speaker 8: get into the NCAA tournament, and you know that's no 1429 01:08:49,520 --> 01:08:52,439 Speaker 8: easy run. The Missouri Valley is is not as good 1430 01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:54,360 Speaker 8: as it once was. I mean, I remember back in 1431 01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:57,639 Speaker 8: the day with you know, Creighton and Wichita and Northern Iowa. 1432 01:08:57,760 --> 01:09:01,479 Speaker 1: That's not the case anymore. But Indiana State's the real deal. 1433 01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:04,519 Speaker 8: Got ranked for the first time since nineteen seventy nine 1434 01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:07,800 Speaker 8: earlier this week and then really quickly got knocked off 1435 01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:10,679 Speaker 8: by Illinois State as a seventeen and a half point 1436 01:09:10,760 --> 01:09:14,120 Speaker 8: favorite at home. But it's a good conference. Indiana State 1437 01:09:14,160 --> 01:09:16,160 Speaker 8: and Drake should be the championship game. That'll be a 1438 01:09:16,240 --> 01:09:18,360 Speaker 8: fun one. But I think the Sycamores could be a 1439 01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:21,160 Speaker 8: team that could you know, win a couple games come 1440 01:09:21,240 --> 01:09:24,479 Speaker 8: March if they get the proper draw. Right now, you're 1441 01:09:24,520 --> 01:09:27,240 Speaker 8: looking at Indiana State, I think probably on that eleven 1442 01:09:27,400 --> 01:09:29,080 Speaker 8: ish line at this point. 1443 01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:31,760 Speaker 2: Well, hey, Tim, hope you enjoyed the games man, Thanks 1444 01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:33,040 Speaker 2: for a few minutes today and we'll. 1445 01:09:32,960 --> 01:09:34,920 Speaker 1: Catch up with you soon.

Big game in Westchester County. 1560 01:15:30,360 --> 01:15:32,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you just have to ask yourself, what 1561 01:15:32,720 --> 01:15:37,040 Speaker 2: would the NFL do? Do you think you have to 1562 01:15:37,080 --> 01:15:39,599 Speaker 2: suspend reality for a second, But do you think if 1563 01:15:39,640 --> 01:15:43,800 Speaker 2: the NFL wasn't the show in town, right, but the 1564 01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:47,280 Speaker 2: show in town just ended the season and they've got 1565 01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:50,280 Speaker 2: a chance to shine, do you think they would schedule 1566 01:15:51,280 --> 01:15:54,040 Speaker 2: a couple of bottom feeders where you could just roll 1567 01:15:54,080 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 2: your eyes and be like, I'm not interested in that. 1568 01:15:56,040 --> 01:15:57,680 Speaker 2: There's no way they would do that. 1569 01:15:58,080 --> 01:16:02,120 Speaker 1: Bring out the stars?

Sounds like a problem for therapy. 1575 01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:17,400 Speaker 1: Absolutely could be. 1576 01:16:17,479 --> 01:16:17,800 Speaker 4: I don't know. 1577 01:16:17,840 --> 01:16:20,360 Speaker 2: All right, come it up next.

I will admit 1599 01:17:30,320 --> 01:17:33,519 Speaker 3: college basketball props have become a bigger part of the 1600 01:17:33,560 --> 01:17:34,280 Speaker 3: equation for me. 1601 01:17:34,360 --> 01:17:36,400 Speaker 1: There are more offerings in that area. 1602 01:17:36,479 --> 01:17:36,599 Speaker 2: Now. 1603 01:17:36,680 --> 01:17:39,040 Speaker 1: Bet MGM does a good job and putting those out there, 1604 01:17:39,560 --> 01:17:42,679 Speaker 1: we will get into some college basketball props and probably 1605 01:17:42,720 --> 01:17:45,320 Speaker 1: some NBA props as we and maybe even NHL. Actually 1606 01:17:45,360 --> 01:17:47,320 Speaker 1: that's another one shot on Goalprop's been something I've be 1607 01:17:47,360 --> 01:17:48,160 Speaker 1: dabbling with lately. 1608 01:17:48,200 --> 01:17:51,920 Speaker 3: So I get to those twenty of Time, the whole spring, 1609 01:17:52,000 --> 01:17:55,400 Speaker 3: summer playoffs, all that stuff, but All Star Weekend and Brian, 1610 01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:57,559 Speaker 3: I don't know about you, but for me, the Dunk 1611 01:17:57,600 --> 01:18:00,439 Speaker 3: Contest growing up and the three point Contest kind of 1612 01:18:00,520 --> 01:18:03,280 Speaker 3: this you know moment in time that you always remember. 1613 01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:05,320 Speaker 3: For me, it was the Vince Carter and it's over 1614 01:18:05,720 --> 01:18:08,719 Speaker 3: like and just those those dunk contests resonate. 1615 01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:09,960 Speaker 1: It's a different vibe now. 1616 01:18:10,400 --> 01:18:13,679 Speaker 3: It's not as sexy, I think, as it was before. 1617 01:18:13,720 --> 01:18:16,920 Speaker 3: It's a little more flashy, but not quite the starch 1618 01:18:17,040 --> 01:18:18,439 Speaker 3: that was behind it. But I think we have some 1619 01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:22,439 Speaker 3: interesting opportunities to bet it. I'm not betting Matt McClung, 1620 01:18:22,439 --> 01:18:25,160 Speaker 3: who's like a three dollars favorite, like minus two seventy 1621 01:18:25,280 --> 01:18:28,639 Speaker 3: five to I can't lay juice in a dunk contest, 1622 01:18:29,120 --> 01:18:32,280 Speaker 3: but I do look at vertical jump as a metric 1623 01:18:32,439 --> 01:18:36,320 Speaker 3: to track, and if you look at that category, Jacob Toppin, who's. 1624 01:18:36,080 --> 01:18:38,960 Speaker 1: At plus eight fifty, is an interesting wager. He's got 1625 01:18:38,960 --> 01:18:40,040 Speaker 1: a forty five inch vertical. 1626 01:18:40,040 --> 01:18:41,640 Speaker 3: He's the brother of Obi Top and of course he 1627 01:18:41,720 --> 01:18:43,680 Speaker 3: won the Dunk Contest a couple of years ago. It 1628 01:18:43,760 --> 01:18:47,640 Speaker 3: could be some interesting you know spectacles there using his 1629 01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:49,439 Speaker 3: brother as a as a prop at some point. But 1630 01:18:49,520 --> 01:18:51,880 Speaker 3: I'll think Jacob toppin plus eight fifty. And in the 1631 01:18:52,200 --> 01:18:55,320 Speaker 3: three point contest, I'll give you two haliburt and the 1632 01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:58,400 Speaker 3: hometown kid right knows the Rims plays in that building. 1633 01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:01,360 Speaker 3: He's around five to one plus four fifty. And then 1634 01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:03,439 Speaker 3: Carl Anthony Towns, who won it two years ago, is 1635 01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:06,639 Speaker 3: like seven to one. So I think that's another interesting wager. 1636 01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:08,640 Speaker 3: A guy who maybe gets overlooked because he's a big man, 1637 01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:10,600 Speaker 3: but he can really shoot the three.

Huh, 1645 01:19:31,720 --> 01:19:34,080 Speaker 2: he's going up against West Virginia. I think I'm good 1646 01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:36,960 Speaker 2: for thirteen points on West Virginia. I don't know if 1647 01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:37,920 Speaker 2: you agree with that or not. 1648 01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:41,640 Speaker 1: Here that might be a strip. Maybe I think ray J. 1649 01:19:41,800 --> 01:19:44,200 Speaker 2: Dennis is good for over twelve and a half against 1650 01:19:44,240 --> 01:19:47,800 Speaker 2: West Virginia this evening. And now I'm gonna go to 1651 01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:52,200 Speaker 2: the Kentucky game. I like Antonio Reeves, but at Auburn. 1652 01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:55,679 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go under under nineteen and a half today 1653 01:19:56,680 --> 01:19:57,599 Speaker 2: for a Reeves. 1654 01:19:57,680 --> 01:19:58,560 Speaker 1: So there you go, Ray J. 1655 01:19:58,720 --> 01:20:02,400 Speaker 2: Dennis over twelve and a half, Antonio Reeves under nineteen 1656 01:20:02,439 --> 01:20:06,160 Speaker 2: and a half. Kentucky's weird, right, Like I could see 1657 01:20:06,240 --> 01:20:08,680 Speaker 2: their offense going pretty good tonight, I can see their 1658 01:20:08,680 --> 01:20:10,040 Speaker 2: offense really struggling. 1659 01:20:10,160 --> 01:20:11,559 Speaker 1: So the mixed bag what. 1660 01:20:11,600 --> 01:20:15,480 Speaker 3: You get with UK upside they can win it all downside, 1661 01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:16,400 Speaker 3: first round exit. 1662 01:20:16,920 --> 01:20:19,000 Speaker 1: Very volatile team, highly volatile. 1663 01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:21,960 Speaker 2: I love, by the way, the shots on goal. You 1664 01:20:22,000 --> 01:20:24,120 Speaker 2: don't even need a score. You're like it was saved, 1665 01:20:24,160 --> 01:20:25,920 Speaker 2: but it was on goal, right, that counts right. 1666 01:20:26,439 --> 01:20:28,400 Speaker 1: I love those props. The prompt markets. 1667 01:20:28,560 --> 01:20:30,439 Speaker 3: Again, the more markets that are out there, the harder 1668 01:20:30,439 --> 01:20:32,120 Speaker 3: it is for the sports books to keep up with them. 1669 01:20:32,400 --> 01:20:36,000 Speaker 2: Absolutely all right, Coming up next, there have been some 1670 01:20:36,240 --> 01:20:39,000 Speaker 2: glowing comments about this guy, and for the life of me, 1671 01:20:39,200 --> 01:20:43,280 Speaker 2: I don't know why, oh what is going on?

Some of these comments are crazy, right. 1686 01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:29,160 Speaker 2: I've read columns, there have been articles, there have been 1687 01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:34,479 Speaker 2: talking heads. This is our Fox Sports radio colleague, our guy, 1688 01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:39,360 Speaker 2: Jason Smith, right, level headed, smart guy for sure. 1689 01:21:39,479 --> 01:21:41,680 Speaker 1: Every now and then a crazy prediction or two. 1690 01:21:42,320 --> 01:21:45,599 Speaker 2: But this is something that he said about Justin Fields 1691 01:21:46,040 --> 01:21:50,240 Speaker 2: potentially being a member of the Black and Gold Pittsburgh Steelers. 1692 01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:53,960 Speaker 1: If the Steelers got Fields next season, I look right now, 1693 01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:56,240 Speaker 1: I would look at the Steelers' Super Bowl future odds 1694 01:21:56,360 --> 01:21:58,560 Speaker 1: because I would make them. I would make them my 1695 01:21:58,640 --> 01:22:04,040 Speaker 1: super Bowl pick next year. If this Dealers got Justin Field. Wow, yeah, whoa, whoa? 1696 01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:09,559 Speaker 2: What's the line from a few good men where it's 1697 01:22:09,640 --> 01:22:11,880 Speaker 2: like I strenuously. 1698 01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:15,880 Speaker 3: Strenuously Jack, strenuously of Jack. No, I've Jack like strenuously 1699 01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:16,240 Speaker 3: of Jack. 1700 01:22:19,080 --> 01:22:23,200 Speaker 2: I compare Justin Fields his numbers to a couple of quarterbacks, 1701 01:22:23,400 --> 01:22:26,280 Speaker 2: and you don't want to be compared to these guys, 1702 01:22:26,360 --> 01:22:32,760 Speaker 2: but the numbers are similar. Okay, what's mac Jones' reputation 1703 01:22:32,960 --> 01:22:38,960 Speaker 2: right now? Jared the Patriots quarterback, bottom barrel barrel can't win, 1704 01:22:39,880 --> 01:22:43,960 Speaker 2: so same draft class. Right, Justin Fields has started thirty 1705 01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:48,439 Speaker 2: eight games. Mac Jones has started forty two, So comparable. Right, 1706 01:22:49,640 --> 01:22:53,040 Speaker 2: You've got mac Jones with about twenty two hundred more 1707 01:22:53,120 --> 01:22:58,240 Speaker 2: passing yards. Mac Jones has thrown six more touchdown passes, 1708 01:22:58,400 --> 01:23:02,880 Speaker 2: six more interceptions, so comparable. Right, mac Jones is a 1709 01:23:02,920 --> 01:23:05,680 Speaker 2: better completion percentage, He's got a higher passer rating through 1710 01:23:05,760 --> 01:23:10,600 Speaker 2: three years, a much fewer sacks. Really, the only thing 1711 01:23:10,640 --> 01:23:14,280 Speaker 2: that Justin Fields does separating himself is running the ball, 1712 01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:18,400 Speaker 2: and he does that very well. But passing he's on 1713 01:23:18,600 --> 01:23:23,200 Speaker 2: the coldest sack of mac Jones and Daniel Jones, the 1714 01:23:23,360 --> 01:23:28,760 Speaker 2: Giants quarterback. Where Daniel Jones higher passer rating, many more 1715 01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:32,960 Speaker 2: passing yards, he started twenty one more games, but better record, 1716 01:23:33,080 --> 01:23:35,479 Speaker 2: like you don't want to be compared to those guys. 1717 01:23:35,560 --> 01:23:37,800 Speaker 2: For the life of me, I can't figure out why 1718 01:23:39,080 --> 01:23:42,240 Speaker 2: Justin Fields, who's done nothing with the Bears, is all 1719 01:23:42,320 --> 01:23:45,680 Speaker 2: of a sudden like this, what this hot quarterback commodity 1720 01:23:45,920 --> 01:23:48,479 Speaker 2: that might get dealt and look out, this team's gonna 1721 01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:52,000 Speaker 2: take off like wildfire. What are we talking about? 1722 01:23:52,080 --> 01:23:52,240 Speaker 1: Right? 1723 01:23:52,320 --> 01:23:54,800 Speaker 2: Am I watching a different NFL than some other people 1724 01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:56,200 Speaker 2: when it comes to Justin Fields. 1725 01:23:56,439 --> 01:24:00,439 Speaker 3: No, you're watching the right NFL. I think I can't 1726 01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:02,519 Speaker 3: speak to the numbers. The numbers are what they are. 1727 01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:05,559 Speaker 3: There's not a lot of context in them. They're not great, 1728 01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:09,200 Speaker 3: the ratings average. I would say, you give him a 1729 01:24:09,320 --> 01:24:12,680 Speaker 3: bonus point for the mobility, and maybe you give him 1730 01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:14,640 Speaker 3: a little bit of the benefit of the doubt for 1731 01:24:14,720 --> 01:24:17,519 Speaker 3: the situation. Right He's had two coordinators in three years 1732 01:24:17,760 --> 01:24:21,840 Speaker 3: in Chicago, bounced around a couple spots in college, didn't 1733 01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:23,120 Speaker 3: play a whole they didn't have a whole lot of 1734 01:24:23,200 --> 01:24:26,400 Speaker 3: experience in college, and then came to the NFL and 1735 01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:28,479 Speaker 3: it was kind of thrust on him very early on. 1736 01:24:29,080 --> 01:24:31,560 Speaker 1: So I again the benefit of the doubt there. But 1737 01:24:31,600 --> 01:24:32,439 Speaker 1: the numbers aren't good. 1738 01:24:32,560 --> 01:24:35,560 Speaker 3: So usually it is a sink or swim league. And 1739 01:24:35,680 --> 01:24:38,080 Speaker 3: when guys get put into situations and they're good players, 1740 01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:39,880 Speaker 3: they play well. Regardless of whether they or not they 1741 01:24:39,960 --> 01:24:43,040 Speaker 3: have the experience or the know the pedigree, they play 1742 01:24:43,080 --> 01:24:46,479 Speaker 3: well in big spots. So I think there is a 1743 01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:50,320 Speaker 3: certain vibe for me that wants to give Justin a 1744 01:24:50,400 --> 01:24:53,760 Speaker 3: clean slate, and I would be interested to see what 1745 01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:56,360 Speaker 3: that clean slate is and kind of how it plays out. 1746 01:24:56,720 --> 01:24:59,120 Speaker 3: But there are not a lot of good options where 1747 01:24:59,120 --> 01:25:01,479 Speaker 3: he's just gonna pair shooed in and become this great player, 1748 01:25:01,520 --> 01:25:04,120 Speaker 3: because let's be honest, if a team is that desperate 1749 01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:05,639 Speaker 3: for a quarterback, well then the rest of the team's 1750 01:25:05,640 --> 01:25:09,639 Speaker 3: probably not very good either. So it just it it's 1751 01:25:09,680 --> 01:25:13,600 Speaker 3: an interesting pr campaign. Luke Getzi was also singing his 1752 01:25:13,720 --> 01:25:16,719 Speaker 3: praises last week the New Right Bears former OC. 1753 01:25:17,160 --> 01:25:20,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, new OC in Vegas. That could be an interesting 1754 01:25:21,080 --> 01:25:22,000 Speaker 1: landing spot, right. 1755 01:25:22,080 --> 01:25:24,559 Speaker 3: We talked about the Raiders and the Jimmy Garoppolo stuff 1756 01:25:24,560 --> 01:25:27,759 Speaker 3: maybe coming up, But they've got a quarterback opening Pittsburgh 1757 01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:29,840 Speaker 3: Scott one. But you put them on those teams, it 1758 01:25:29,880 --> 01:25:32,040 Speaker 3: doesn't make him super Bowl contenders. It just gives him 1759 01:25:32,080 --> 01:25:33,920 Speaker 3: another chance to show what he's got. 1760 01:25:34,320 --> 01:25:35,880 Speaker 1: That's the thing, man, is. 1761 01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:39,800 Speaker 2: It's a difference if you were to say, hey, Justin 1762 01:25:39,960 --> 01:25:44,000 Speaker 2: Fields compared to let's take the Steelers compared to Kenny 1763 01:25:44,080 --> 01:25:49,920 Speaker 2: Pickett compared to like Mason Rudolph or Mitch Trubisky, who 1764 01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:50,560 Speaker 2: they got rid of. 1765 01:25:51,200 --> 01:25:52,000 Speaker 1: It's an upgrade. 1766 01:25:52,160 --> 01:25:56,320 Speaker 2: Okay, I can buy that, But to be like, look out, 1767 01:25:56,960 --> 01:26:00,720 Speaker 2: they're just gonna take off from here. It's again if 1768 01:26:00,800 --> 01:26:03,240 Speaker 2: you look at mac Jones and Daniel Jones. You hear 1769 01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:05,680 Speaker 2: this a lot with Justin Fields, Well, look at Justin 1770 01:26:05,760 --> 01:26:09,280 Speaker 2: Field supporting cast. Mac Jones and Daniel Jones have worse 1771 01:26:09,320 --> 01:26:13,519 Speaker 2: supporting cast. Especially mac Jones his j Moore, who's his 1772 01:26:13,720 --> 01:26:15,040 Speaker 2: cole Kamet you know what I'm saying. 1773 01:26:15,160 --> 01:26:16,280 Speaker 1: It's no running ability. 1774 01:26:16,600 --> 01:26:19,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, and mac Jones has put up better numbers than 1775 01:26:20,120 --> 01:26:25,000 Speaker 2: Justin Fields has. If the Steelers got Mac Jones, is 1776 01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:27,599 Speaker 2: the takeaway like WHOA, look out, they could be special. 1777 01:26:27,920 --> 01:26:30,240 Speaker 2: He's finally got some weapons around him too, much. 1778 01:26:30,200 --> 01:26:30,800 Speaker 1: Like Kenny Pickett. 1779 01:26:31,320 --> 01:26:31,519 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1780 01:26:32,160 --> 01:26:35,320 Speaker 1: The only thing that gives Justin the chance to succeed 1781 01:26:36,160 --> 01:26:37,840 Speaker 1: is because the mobility is. 1782 01:26:37,880 --> 01:26:41,479 Speaker 3: There, and if he ever does have a coordinator or 1783 01:26:41,520 --> 01:26:45,560 Speaker 3: an offense, that he figures it out in their's upside. Like, 1784 01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:47,960 Speaker 3: I think a lot of teams look at these types 1785 01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:50,639 Speaker 3: of players and they see the upside and they ignore 1786 01:26:50,800 --> 01:26:53,040 Speaker 3: the downside because they're looking at. 1787 01:26:52,960 --> 01:26:54,240 Speaker 1: It through their lens. 1788 01:26:54,520 --> 01:26:57,560 Speaker 3: And there's no doubt that downside with Justin Fields is 1789 01:26:58,200 --> 01:27:00,519 Speaker 3: staring you in the face with the protoct activity and 1790 01:27:00,920 --> 01:27:04,160 Speaker 3: the efficiency throwing the ball. But a lot of quarterbacks 1791 01:27:04,240 --> 01:27:06,320 Speaker 3: view him, or excuse me, a lot of coaches view 1792 01:27:06,439 --> 01:27:09,120 Speaker 3: him like a project, like, hey, if I can get 1793 01:27:09,160 --> 01:27:11,800 Speaker 3: the most out of him, I can look smarter and 1794 01:27:11,880 --> 01:27:13,760 Speaker 3: look better than any other coach because they haven't got 1795 01:27:13,840 --> 01:27:15,960 Speaker 3: So I understand why there's a lot of teams that 1796 01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:19,479 Speaker 3: are probably singing his praises trying to recruit him, because 1797 01:27:19,840 --> 01:27:20,559 Speaker 3: my guess. 1798 01:27:20,479 --> 01:27:21,920 Speaker 1: Is the Bears are going to try to move him. 1799 01:27:22,479 --> 01:27:23,080 Speaker 1: They have to. 1800 01:27:23,479 --> 01:27:26,879 Speaker 3: They They're gonna ask mostly with the ultimate no brainer. 1801 01:27:28,080 --> 01:27:29,800 Speaker 3: You think it's a bigger no brainer than the show, 1802 01:27:29,840 --> 01:27:31,200 Speaker 3: Hey move, which you were all over by. 1803 01:27:31,360 --> 01:27:34,479 Speaker 2: Oh gosh, yes, he had to move him. Yeah, are 1804 01:27:34,520 --> 01:27:35,960 Speaker 2: you gonna get nothing for him? 1805 01:27:36,120 --> 01:27:39,960 Speaker 1: And they got it. They got absolutely zilch for the guy. 1806 01:27:40,240 --> 01:27:44,479 Speaker 2: But yeah, like I look at Justin Fields and if 1807 01:27:44,520 --> 01:27:46,680 Speaker 2: you compare him to a guy like Lamar Jackson, who 1808 01:27:46,720 --> 01:27:48,320 Speaker 2: has elite running a billity. 1809 01:27:48,439 --> 01:27:51,000 Speaker 1: Yeah right, But you look at what Lamar has. 1810 01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:54,439 Speaker 2: Done throwing the ball some of these years, and his 1811 01:27:54,640 --> 01:27:58,200 Speaker 2: MVP season his second year, thirty six touchdown passes in 1812 01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:02,719 Speaker 2: six interceptions, even this past season twenty four touchdown passes, 1813 01:28:02,840 --> 01:28:06,360 Speaker 2: seven interceptions. I don't know that Justin Fields is ever 1814 01:28:06,479 --> 01:28:08,840 Speaker 2: gonna get there. I guarantee he's not gonna get to 1815 01:28:08,920 --> 01:28:09,920 Speaker 2: thirty six and six. 1816 01:28:10,520 --> 01:28:11,760 Speaker 1: That's just not in him. 1817 01:28:12,400 --> 01:28:13,920 Speaker 2: And I don't want to make him out to be 1818 01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:17,160 Speaker 2: the worst quarterback in the league because he isn't. Yeah, 1819 01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:20,760 Speaker 2: but this idea that I know, he's got this great 1820 01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:24,120 Speaker 2: running ability, but you have got to make your living 1821 01:28:24,200 --> 01:28:26,920 Speaker 2: in the NFL throwing the football. I think you can 1822 01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:31,000 Speaker 2: put incredible stress on a defense with elite running ability, 1823 01:28:31,680 --> 01:28:34,120 Speaker 2: which Lamar and Justin Fields have done. 1824 01:28:34,640 --> 01:28:35,759 Speaker 1: But look at Mahomes. 1825 01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:39,360 Speaker 2: I wouldn't say elite running ability, but pretty good behind 1826 01:28:39,360 --> 01:28:41,800 Speaker 2: a lot of players with his legs. But he makes 1827 01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:45,880 Speaker 2: his living with his passing ability. And that's the way 1828 01:28:45,920 --> 01:28:48,519 Speaker 2: the rules are set up. Justin Fields and Lamar have 1829 01:28:48,640 --> 01:28:51,200 Speaker 2: been banged up quite a bit. It's not a mystery 1830 01:28:51,240 --> 01:28:54,320 Speaker 2: as to why, you know, Like, so that's where I 1831 01:28:54,439 --> 01:28:57,000 Speaker 2: look at it and say, yeah, you can upgrade Justin 1832 01:28:57,080 --> 01:28:59,560 Speaker 2: Field's weapons. I think that would help. But I'm not 1833 01:28:59,640 --> 01:29:03,320 Speaker 2: expected this monstrous boom in terms of his production. I 1834 01:29:03,479 --> 01:29:04,360 Speaker 2: just don't see it. 1835 01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:07,679 Speaker 3: And to be fair again to Justin, like he didn't 1836 01:29:07,720 --> 01:29:11,400 Speaker 3: get that buffer that Mahomes got, got to sit behind 1837 01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:14,880 Speaker 3: Alex Smith, one of the best quarterbacks you know, brain wise, 1838 01:29:14,960 --> 01:29:18,200 Speaker 3: that we've seen in the last twenty years, and Andy Reid, 1839 01:29:18,240 --> 01:29:21,280 Speaker 3: who you know, but best offensive mine probably in the 1840 01:29:21,360 --> 01:29:27,120 Speaker 3: last twenty years. Justin had to right away with Andy Dalton. 1841 01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:30,439 Speaker 3: That situation was a total disaster. I think it was 1842 01:29:30,520 --> 01:29:33,320 Speaker 3: his second or third game thrust into the starting role. 1843 01:29:33,920 --> 01:29:34,920 Speaker 4: So it just it. 1844 01:29:36,560 --> 01:29:40,280 Speaker 3: I don't want to say it'll just all be sunshine 1845 01:29:40,320 --> 01:29:43,880 Speaker 3: and rainbows in whatever inevitable new location he goes to. 1846 01:29:44,760 --> 01:29:47,080 Speaker 3: But there is something to be said about a guy 1847 01:29:47,200 --> 01:29:50,880 Speaker 3: with his talent getting a second chance in a spot 1848 01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:53,800 Speaker 3: that didn't draft you in the top fifteen or wherever 1849 01:29:53,920 --> 01:29:55,760 Speaker 3: he was drafted the first round. I forget the exact pick. 1850 01:29:56,400 --> 01:29:59,720 Speaker 3: That pressure's not there. I can go just kind of 1851 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:03,240 Speaker 3: exist in a new situation and get a fresh start. 1852 01:30:03,800 --> 01:30:06,320 Speaker 3: I'm interested to see if there are any because let's 1853 01:30:06,320 --> 01:30:09,160 Speaker 3: be honest, he's a very talented player. He just hasn't 1854 01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:11,479 Speaker 3: found the ways to put it together on the big 1855 01:30:11,560 --> 01:30:14,120 Speaker 3: stage yet. If he and he might, he never might 1856 01:30:14,280 --> 01:30:17,439 Speaker 3: like that might never happen. There are really talented players 1857 01:30:17,439 --> 01:30:19,280 Speaker 3: in this league that go from team to team. They 1858 01:30:19,320 --> 01:30:21,880 Speaker 3: have situations and they just they never quite figure it out, 1859 01:30:21,960 --> 01:30:25,439 Speaker 3: especially at the quarterback position. But if I was a 1860 01:30:25,560 --> 01:30:29,000 Speaker 3: team like a Raiders or a Steelers with a Kenny 1861 01:30:29,080 --> 01:30:32,240 Speaker 3: Pickett or an Aidan O'Connell as my starting quarterback, a 1862 01:30:32,320 --> 01:30:35,800 Speaker 3: statue that you know, the upside isn't really there anyways, Yeah, 1863 01:30:36,000 --> 01:30:37,920 Speaker 3: I would take a chance on Justin Fields and bring 1864 01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:39,720 Speaker 3: him in and see what I've got, because I do 1865 01:30:39,840 --> 01:30:42,479 Speaker 3: think there's a chance that a team figures out how 1866 01:30:42,520 --> 01:30:44,760 Speaker 3: to get through to him and get the offense set 1867 01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:47,960 Speaker 3: because the running ability in the athleticism is there. I 1868 01:30:48,080 --> 01:30:49,400 Speaker 3: just don't know what that team is. I think it 1869 01:30:49,479 --> 01:30:51,400 Speaker 3: might be the Raiders. Right gets He Now he's you know, 1870 01:30:51,479 --> 01:30:53,920 Speaker 3: he's in that offense for two years. Now Getsy goes 1871 01:30:53,960 --> 01:30:58,679 Speaker 3: to Vegas, they're gonna make a splash Pittsburgh. Maybe there's 1872 01:30:58,680 --> 01:31:00,880 Speaker 3: a couple other teams that are quarterback needy, but he's 1873 01:31:00,920 --> 01:31:03,120 Speaker 3: gonna end it. He's gonna get a shot somewhere because 1874 01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:03,680 Speaker 3: of what he can do. 1875 01:31:03,760 --> 01:31:05,320 Speaker 1: With his legs. Yeah, could be. 1876 01:31:05,560 --> 01:31:08,920 Speaker 2: I just think it's kind of weird that we just 1877 01:31:09,000 --> 01:31:11,880 Speaker 2: saw a former Bears quarterback go to the Steelers and 1878 01:31:12,000 --> 01:31:16,439 Speaker 2: do nothing named Mitch Trubisky, right, who If you look 1879 01:31:16,479 --> 01:31:19,920 Speaker 2: at Mitch at his fifty starts with the Bears twenty 1880 01:31:20,000 --> 01:31:23,280 Speaker 2: nine and twenty one, it's not only a quarterback stat 1881 01:31:23,520 --> 01:31:26,160 Speaker 2: I want to make that perfectly clear, but a lot 1882 01:31:26,240 --> 01:31:29,479 Speaker 2: of it goes into that. And for Justin Fields to 1883 01:31:29,560 --> 01:31:32,840 Speaker 2: be ten and twenty eight, that's his record. Like Mitch, 1884 01:31:32,920 --> 01:31:35,559 Speaker 2: you look at him with the Bears, no one waxed 1885 01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:40,240 Speaker 2: poetic about him at all. His numbers are better, completion percentage, 1886 01:31:40,320 --> 01:31:44,439 Speaker 2: better passer rating, better, yards per game, better, like all 1887 01:31:44,479 --> 01:31:46,920 Speaker 2: across the board, and no one's singing his praises that 1888 01:31:47,000 --> 01:31:49,800 Speaker 2: he did nothing with the Steelers. I also look at 1889 01:31:49,800 --> 01:31:53,400 Speaker 2: it like this, if you look at Fields, once he 1890 01:31:53,520 --> 01:31:56,519 Speaker 2: gets paid, and he's not that far from getting paid. Yeah, 1891 01:31:57,160 --> 01:31:59,439 Speaker 2: Like that's the other thing. He hasn't gotten it done 1892 01:31:59,479 --> 01:32:01,400 Speaker 2: while he's on his rookie deal. What do you think 1893 01:32:01,520 --> 01:32:02,920 Speaker 2: is gonna happen when he gets paid? 1894 01:32:03,479 --> 01:32:04,479 Speaker 1: That's the tricky part. 1895 01:32:04,920 --> 01:32:10,680 Speaker 3: I think the contract situation with the quarterbacks is probably 1896 01:32:11,280 --> 01:32:15,960 Speaker 3: the most untalked about, talked about thing when it comes 1897 01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:20,040 Speaker 3: to these movements, Like Justin's a really cheap option right now. 1898 01:32:20,600 --> 01:32:23,160 Speaker 3: So yeah, if I was a coach or a new 1899 01:32:23,280 --> 01:32:25,960 Speaker 3: coordinator at a new team, like Getsy again is like 1900 01:32:26,040 --> 01:32:29,200 Speaker 3: the prime example, because he's familiar with the offense. I'm 1901 01:32:29,240 --> 01:32:31,240 Speaker 3: stumping hard because I know it's a low risk move 1902 01:32:31,320 --> 01:32:34,680 Speaker 3: right now, but not everything. It won't be a low 1903 01:32:34,760 --> 01:32:37,800 Speaker 3: risk move next year. So we better get him in 1904 01:32:37,960 --> 01:32:41,639 Speaker 3: now because if we do catch lightning in a bottle, 1905 01:32:42,120 --> 01:32:44,479 Speaker 3: maybe we get the hometown discount. Like this is the 1906 01:32:44,640 --> 01:32:48,519 Speaker 3: last year you're stumping for Justin Fields, as this by 1907 01:32:48,640 --> 01:32:49,439 Speaker 3: low project. 1908 01:32:49,920 --> 01:32:52,240 Speaker 1: Next year it ain't by low anymore. 1909 01:32:52,479 --> 01:32:58,240 Speaker 2: Man Daniel Jones, the Giants quarterback, he will count forty 1910 01:32:58,400 --> 01:33:02,599 Speaker 2: one point six million dollars toward the salary caps each 1911 01:33:02,680 --> 01:33:05,040 Speaker 2: of the next three seasons. Now, the Giants can get 1912 01:33:05,160 --> 01:33:08,160 Speaker 2: out of the deal after this next season, and they might, 1913 01:33:08,720 --> 01:33:14,320 Speaker 2: but it's about forty two mil per year for Daniel Jones. 1914 01:33:14,760 --> 01:33:17,479 Speaker 2: And don't think for a second that Justin Fields is 1915 01:33:17,520 --> 01:33:21,000 Speaker 2: going to be dramatically lower than that, because for whatever reason, 1916 01:33:21,040 --> 01:33:23,799 Speaker 2: people are just conditioned to look at, Hey, the upside, 1917 01:33:23,800 --> 01:33:26,960 Speaker 2: the upside, the upside, the ceiling, the ceiling, and look 1918 01:33:26,960 --> 01:33:29,360 Speaker 2: at the floor. He's given you three seasons of the floor, 1919 01:33:29,479 --> 01:33:31,000 Speaker 2: and you're just hung up on the ceiling. 1920 01:33:31,080 --> 01:33:31,679 Speaker 1: It's crazy. 1921 01:33:32,080 --> 01:33:36,240 Speaker 3: It's just it's you're looking at it from a price perspective. 1922 01:33:36,800 --> 01:33:39,280 Speaker 3: Teams are looking at Justin Fields and they're saying, this 1923 01:33:39,479 --> 01:33:42,960 Speaker 3: is a guy that is probably still better than I 1924 01:33:43,000 --> 01:33:46,200 Speaker 3: would say, at least ten of the starting quarterbacks in 1925 01:33:46,240 --> 01:33:48,439 Speaker 3: the NFL. Maybe he's kind of in the middle of 1926 01:33:48,520 --> 01:33:51,519 Speaker 3: the pack because of that upside with the running ability, 1927 01:33:51,560 --> 01:33:53,240 Speaker 3: and you give him a little extra bonus for that. 1928 01:33:53,720 --> 01:33:56,720 Speaker 3: But then you look at the price, right, and the 1929 01:33:56,960 --> 01:34:01,439 Speaker 3: price is why teams are interested. But the Bears control 1930 01:34:01,520 --> 01:34:04,080 Speaker 3: that price, the Bear. And that's the thing about this. 1931 01:34:04,280 --> 01:34:06,719 Speaker 3: Like we're talking about Justin Fields, like he's a free agent. 1932 01:34:06,840 --> 01:34:09,800 Speaker 3: He is under contract with the Chicago Bears. They can 1933 01:34:09,960 --> 01:34:14,040 Speaker 3: choose to keep him if they want and draft one 1934 01:34:14,200 --> 01:34:18,559 Speaker 3: and just go with it. I think that's the direction 1935 01:34:18,680 --> 01:34:23,120 Speaker 3: that they're going to go. But I there's a lot 1936 01:34:23,160 --> 01:34:26,000 Speaker 3: of options here, and to act like we know what 1937 01:34:26,040 --> 01:34:29,360 Speaker 3: they're gonna do, we don't, And it's gonna be an 1938 01:34:29,360 --> 01:34:30,800 Speaker 3: interesting couple of months, that's for sure. 1939 01:34:31,240 --> 01:34:33,280 Speaker 2: They just they have to get the most they can 1940 01:34:33,439 --> 01:34:36,519 Speaker 2: for Justin Field, you would think, and take a quarterback 1941 01:34:36,600 --> 01:34:39,400 Speaker 2: with the number one overall pick like that. That's another 1942 01:34:39,479 --> 01:34:43,000 Speaker 2: part of this is they might get a second round 1943 01:34:43,040 --> 01:34:45,240 Speaker 2: pick for Justin Fields. Yeah, they won't get can you 1944 01:34:45,520 --> 01:34:48,960 Speaker 2: can you imagine because he's a rental, getting Caleb Williams 1945 01:34:49,439 --> 01:34:52,760 Speaker 2: for a second round pick, Like so think about that 1946 01:34:52,880 --> 01:34:53,400 Speaker 2: for a second. 1947 01:34:53,600 --> 01:34:56,080 Speaker 1: You might get a two for Justin Fields. 1948 01:34:56,120 --> 01:34:58,800 Speaker 3: Maybe the Bears are in such an interesting spot. They 1949 01:34:59,040 --> 01:35:01,760 Speaker 3: just so they have like seventy million in space. They 1950 01:35:01,800 --> 01:35:05,200 Speaker 3: have a ton of cap space. They just cut their 1951 01:35:05,280 --> 01:35:09,280 Speaker 3: two starting safeties to clear up more cap space. And 1952 01:35:09,400 --> 01:35:13,120 Speaker 3: they've got a new coordinator, Shane Waldron from the from 1953 01:35:13,160 --> 01:35:18,360 Speaker 3: the Seahawks. So they kept the same coaching staff, but 1954 01:35:18,600 --> 01:35:22,000 Speaker 3: then the coordinator's new offensive coordinators new the GM is 1955 01:35:22,880 --> 01:35:25,959 Speaker 3: Paul's has been you know, he's made some interesting signings. 1956 01:35:26,200 --> 01:35:28,080 Speaker 3: I thought they did a good job getting the defense 1957 01:35:28,120 --> 01:35:31,680 Speaker 3: ready next year, you know, getting their defense ready last year, 1958 01:35:31,800 --> 01:35:33,680 Speaker 3: getting them up to speed Tour this year. There I 1959 01:35:33,760 --> 01:35:37,479 Speaker 3: take to play fantastic. Yeah, And that's the thing about it, Like, 1960 01:35:38,120 --> 01:35:41,439 Speaker 3: if you think about win Now for the Bears, they 1961 01:35:41,520 --> 01:35:44,960 Speaker 3: have a gajillion in cap space, their defense is legit, 1962 01:35:45,960 --> 01:35:47,840 Speaker 3: but they've got a new offensive coordinator in a bad 1963 01:35:47,920 --> 01:35:52,400 Speaker 3: quarterback situation. So if they end up thinking Fields as 1964 01:35:52,439 --> 01:35:54,280 Speaker 3: the guy, and they say, you know what, we'll give 1965 01:35:54,439 --> 01:35:55,320 Speaker 3: Justin one more chance. 1966 01:35:55,479 --> 01:35:58,280 Speaker 1: Eba Flues is on his way out, We'll give Ebaflus. 1967 01:35:57,800 --> 01:36:00,519 Speaker 3: And Justin one more chance to do this thing, they 1968 01:36:00,600 --> 01:36:04,760 Speaker 3: can go sign like the entire world god, So like, 1969 01:36:05,400 --> 01:36:07,280 Speaker 3: you have to look at it from that perspective, because 1970 01:36:07,280 --> 01:36:09,720 Speaker 3: I do think there is a there's an option see 1971 01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:13,760 Speaker 3: here where they keep Fields, they trade down, they draft 1972 01:36:13,840 --> 01:36:16,280 Speaker 3: like Marvin Harrison. They have DJ Moore Marvin Harrison, and 1973 01:36:16,320 --> 01:36:18,320 Speaker 3: then they go sign like every player on free agency 1974 01:36:18,320 --> 01:36:21,280 Speaker 3: because they got am gajillion dollars. And you could make 1975 01:36:21,320 --> 01:36:23,000 Speaker 3: a case that that's a team that could contend for 1976 01:36:23,080 --> 01:36:25,839 Speaker 3: the playoffs if Justin Fields plays to the top. 1977 01:36:25,800 --> 01:36:26,639 Speaker 1: End of the spectrum. 1978 01:36:26,760 --> 01:36:28,840 Speaker 2: But I can't promise you that it's all pie in 1979 01:36:28,920 --> 01:36:29,280 Speaker 2: the sky. 1980 01:36:30,320 --> 01:36:31,040 Speaker 1: They're that dumb. 1981 01:36:31,280 --> 01:36:31,439 Speaker 5: You know. 1982 01:36:31,520 --> 01:36:35,400 Speaker 2: I appreciate the theory, you know, I mean, that's that's 1983 01:36:35,439 --> 01:36:38,439 Speaker 2: the game theory, but that you know what throws a 1984 01:36:38,439 --> 01:36:40,919 Speaker 2: wrench into that a little bit to the Bears benefit 1985 01:36:41,000 --> 01:36:44,560 Speaker 2: in my opinion, is CJ Stroud last year. Yeah, you know, 1986 01:36:45,160 --> 01:36:47,400 Speaker 2: like you could run it back with Justin Fields and 1987 01:36:47,479 --> 01:36:50,479 Speaker 2: get them all these toys around him, you know, and 1988 01:36:50,880 --> 01:36:53,680 Speaker 2: still not be that good. That could be a possibility. 1989 01:36:54,320 --> 01:36:56,559 Speaker 2: Or you could go with a top of the line prospect, 1990 01:36:56,800 --> 01:36:59,919 Speaker 2: see how it turns out. But Caleb Williams could be special. 1991 01:37:00,160 --> 01:37:02,800 Speaker 2: He has the potential to be special, and you're gonna 1992 01:37:02,800 --> 01:37:06,800 Speaker 2: pass on special again to just give Justin Fields a 1993 01:37:06,840 --> 01:37:10,000 Speaker 2: bunch of toys that he might be able to get 1994 01:37:10,040 --> 01:37:10,800 Speaker 2: you to the playoffs with. 1995 01:37:10,880 --> 01:37:14,680 Speaker 3: They didn't draft Bryce Young last year. Imagine if they 1996 01:37:14,760 --> 01:37:16,280 Speaker 3: kept that one pick and drafted Bryce Young. 1997 01:37:16,560 --> 01:37:17,600 Speaker 1: At least they didn't do that. 1998 01:37:19,120 --> 01:37:22,000 Speaker 2: They Bryce Young and just flock though. 1999 01:37:22,120 --> 01:37:24,160 Speaker 1: That would have been good, that's true. They would have 2000 01:37:24,200 --> 01:37:24,800 Speaker 1: reset the clock. 2001 01:37:25,040 --> 01:37:29,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's Jared Smith, FSR betting analyst. I'm Brian No 2002 01:37:29,520 --> 01:37:35,040 Speaker 2: coming up next. Wow, this was quite the costly mistake. 2003 01:37:35,439 --> 01:37:37,880 Speaker 2: We will dive into this story around the corner. It 2004 01:37:37,960 --> 01:37:40,519 Speaker 2: is Fox Sports Saturday right here on Fox Sports Radio. 2005 01:37:41,080 --> 01:37:44,120 Speaker 2: It is Fox Sports Saturday here on Fox Sports Radio. 2006 01:37:44,200 --> 01:37:46,920 Speaker 2: We're live from the tire Rack dot Com studios. I'm 2007 01:37:46,960 --> 01:37:50,519 Speaker 2: Brian Know. He's Jared Smith hanging out with you today. So, 2008 01:37:50,720 --> 01:37:55,880 Speaker 2: Jimmy Garoppolo, this is not a good what passed forty 2009 01:37:55,920 --> 01:37:59,160 Speaker 2: eight hours for Jimmy G. So he's been suspended for 2010 01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:04,919 Speaker 2: two games. Jared he he was taking some prescribed medication 2011 01:38:05,600 --> 01:38:09,040 Speaker 2: but did not get clearance from the NFL. So this 2012 01:38:09,160 --> 01:38:14,000 Speaker 2: turns out to basically be a PED viola shown. 2013 01:38:14,680 --> 01:38:17,120 Speaker 1: So he's suspended for two games. He's not gonna appeal it. 2014 01:38:17,439 --> 01:38:21,400 Speaker 2: And the kicker is this he also has an eleven 2015 01:38:21,479 --> 01:38:25,840 Speaker 2: point two five million dollar base salary guarantee for the 2016 01:38:25,920 --> 01:38:30,280 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four season that now could be voided because 2017 01:38:30,320 --> 01:38:35,640 Speaker 2: of the suspension. Because he violated the PED policy, that 2018 01:38:35,880 --> 01:38:40,960 Speaker 2: base salary guarantee is not guaranteed anymore, and so the 2019 01:38:41,040 --> 01:38:44,280 Speaker 2: Raiders are expected to release Jimmy G and he would 2020 01:38:44,320 --> 01:38:49,280 Speaker 2: be out eleven point two million dollars that was previously guaranteed. 2021 01:38:50,120 --> 01:38:51,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, not ideal. 2022 01:38:52,000 --> 01:38:56,360 Speaker 3: No, I think they were cutting him anyways, because I 2023 01:38:56,439 --> 01:39:00,439 Speaker 3: think that contract if they cut him before the I 2024 01:39:00,520 --> 01:39:03,280 Speaker 3: think what I read was the bonus was doing March 2025 01:39:03,600 --> 01:39:06,439 Speaker 3: like March is when the league kind of resets the year, 2026 01:39:07,120 --> 01:39:10,000 Speaker 3: and the bonus was due once the league kind of reset, 2027 01:39:10,479 --> 01:39:13,080 Speaker 3: And yeah, I don't think he would have made it 2028 01:39:13,160 --> 01:39:13,920 Speaker 3: to that point, but. 2029 01:39:14,000 --> 01:39:14,880 Speaker 1: Now definitely not. 2030 01:39:15,880 --> 01:39:19,519 Speaker 3: And it really makes the Raiders, like the Jimmy g stuff, 2031 01:39:19,640 --> 01:39:21,920 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna beat a dead horse, like he had 2032 01:39:21,960 --> 01:39:23,599 Speaker 3: a rough year. He was leading the league and picks 2033 01:39:23,680 --> 01:39:25,320 Speaker 3: until he got benched and then you know, we never 2034 01:39:25,360 --> 01:39:28,720 Speaker 3: really heard from him again, and it's kind of been 2035 01:39:28,760 --> 01:39:31,080 Speaker 3: a downward spiral since the New England stuff ended. 2036 01:39:31,680 --> 01:39:34,880 Speaker 1: But it makes the Raiders a little bit more of 2037 01:39:34,920 --> 01:39:38,200 Speaker 1: an intriguing offseason team, Like they know they're in a 2038 01:39:38,520 --> 01:39:42,280 Speaker 1: division with Andy Reid and Jim Harbaugh and Justin Herbert 2039 01:39:42,360 --> 01:39:43,400 Speaker 1: and Patrick Mahomes and. 2040 01:39:43,439 --> 01:39:45,800 Speaker 3: You want to throw Peyton and Wilson in the mix too. 2041 01:39:46,720 --> 01:39:48,400 Speaker 3: They have a new head coach, right, they have a 2042 01:39:48,479 --> 01:39:51,720 Speaker 3: new oc coming from Chicago. They are going to make 2043 01:39:51,760 --> 01:39:54,080 Speaker 3: a splash like they're not going into the season, which 2044 01:39:54,160 --> 01:39:56,720 Speaker 3: is O'Connell on the roster at quarterback, Like they're going 2045 01:39:56,800 --> 01:39:59,439 Speaker 3: to either trade up. I think they're drafting eleventh, so 2046 01:40:00,120 --> 01:40:02,320 Speaker 3: somewhere in that three thirteenth. Yeah, somewhere in that range yet, 2047 01:40:02,360 --> 01:40:03,840 Speaker 3: So they're either going to move up and get one 2048 01:40:03,840 --> 01:40:06,880 Speaker 3: of the big quarterbacks or try to get one of 2049 01:40:06,920 --> 01:40:10,240 Speaker 3: the middle tier guys at that spot, or go out 2050 01:40:10,280 --> 01:40:12,439 Speaker 3: and sign somebody, maybe go trade. 2051 01:40:12,200 --> 01:40:13,040 Speaker 1: For Justin Fields. 2052 01:40:13,080 --> 01:40:16,720 Speaker 3: Like, I think this move is kind of like the 2053 01:40:16,880 --> 01:40:21,880 Speaker 3: rubber stamp on a very interesting off season about to 2054 01:40:21,960 --> 01:40:23,840 Speaker 3: take place here in Las Vegas. 2055 01:40:24,880 --> 01:40:27,519 Speaker 2: Well, I hear you on all of that, and I'm 2056 01:40:27,560 --> 01:40:32,000 Speaker 2: wondering if they go crazy where you think about Jaden Daniels. Oh, yeah, 2057 01:40:32,000 --> 01:40:34,439 Speaker 2: who was the LSU quarterback? He was at Arizona State 2058 01:40:34,520 --> 01:40:38,400 Speaker 2: when Antonio Pierce was there. Also interesting, right, so you 2059 01:40:38,680 --> 01:40:41,759 Speaker 2: like those connections, you connect those two, do the Raiders 2060 01:40:41,840 --> 01:40:46,519 Speaker 2: get crazy aggressive? Could be and move up ten maybe 2061 01:40:46,560 --> 01:40:50,120 Speaker 2: eleven spots, Yeah, to get in rage to get Daniels. 2062 01:40:50,400 --> 01:40:52,920 Speaker 3: That's a you think Daniel's going two. I saw some 2063 01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:54,800 Speaker 3: mock drafts this week that at Daniels at two. I 2064 01:40:54,840 --> 01:40:56,400 Speaker 3: don't know if I fully buy it, but I could 2065 01:40:56,439 --> 01:40:56,720 Speaker 3: see it. 2066 01:40:57,160 --> 01:40:58,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't buy it. 2067 01:40:59,120 --> 01:41:01,920 Speaker 2: I have a hard time seeing Washington saying we'll go 2068 01:41:02,120 --> 01:41:04,680 Speaker 2: Jade and Daniels over Drake May. Yeah, if those are 2069 01:41:04,720 --> 01:41:07,320 Speaker 2: the two quarterbacks on the board at that time, I mean, 2070 01:41:07,439 --> 01:41:08,759 Speaker 2: crazier things have happened. 2071 01:41:09,120 --> 01:41:09,760 Speaker 1: Absolutely. 2072 01:41:09,880 --> 01:41:12,040 Speaker 3: What about JJ McCarty If you want to believe, you 2073 01:41:12,120 --> 01:41:14,960 Speaker 3: know that Jim Harbaugh with his predictions, maybe he's the 2074 01:41:15,040 --> 01:41:17,000 Speaker 3: next guy off the board after I mean, Caleb's going 2075 01:41:17,040 --> 01:41:19,240 Speaker 3: to be the first quarterback taken. I don't know if 2076 01:41:19,280 --> 01:41:21,519 Speaker 3: he is going to go to Chicago, but he will 2077 01:41:21,560 --> 01:41:24,280 Speaker 3: be the first pick somewhere, and then. 2078 01:41:24,240 --> 01:41:26,920 Speaker 2: After that kind of where are your top three? 2079 01:41:27,720 --> 01:41:29,160 Speaker 1: I think Caleb is one. 2080 01:41:29,640 --> 01:41:33,760 Speaker 3: I think you can make the case for Daniels as 2081 01:41:33,840 --> 01:41:37,800 Speaker 3: a dual threat better than Drake May because of his 2082 01:41:38,000 --> 01:41:40,720 Speaker 3: throwing ability. Like I think Jane Daniels has done more 2083 01:41:40,800 --> 01:41:46,560 Speaker 3: in college to warrant the nod over Drake May. But 2084 01:41:47,479 --> 01:41:49,800 Speaker 3: if I was a GM and I watched what just 2085 01:41:49,880 --> 01:41:55,120 Speaker 3: took place in Carolina with a slightly undersized quarterback, and 2086 01:41:55,280 --> 01:41:57,439 Speaker 3: I would say bright Song is more undersized than Jayden 2087 01:41:57,439 --> 01:41:59,800 Speaker 3: and Daniels, But Daniel's a little bit more undersized than 2088 01:41:59,840 --> 01:42:04,280 Speaker 3: the other guys. That could be a recency bias. Hey, 2089 01:42:04,960 --> 01:42:06,599 Speaker 3: I don't want to make that same mistake. 2090 01:42:06,760 --> 01:42:06,880 Speaker 1: Now. 2091 01:42:06,920 --> 01:42:09,479 Speaker 3: I know you're not drafting Daniels one where you drafted 2092 01:42:09,520 --> 01:42:11,880 Speaker 3: Bryce one, so that changes the math a little bit. 2093 01:42:12,479 --> 01:42:14,840 Speaker 3: But I think I give Drake May this slight edge 2094 01:42:15,360 --> 01:42:18,040 Speaker 3: just because of the physical tools. But I'll be honest, 2095 01:42:18,120 --> 01:42:20,920 Speaker 3: Jaden Daniels more success in college, So I think that 2096 01:42:21,080 --> 01:42:23,799 Speaker 3: matters a little bit. It's a tough call between Daniels 2097 01:42:23,840 --> 01:42:25,560 Speaker 3: in May for two and three, but let's leave it 2098 01:42:25,600 --> 01:42:27,200 Speaker 3: at this. McCarthy's four on. 2099 01:42:27,240 --> 01:42:29,479 Speaker 2: That list, right right, Yeah, I would not have him 2100 01:42:29,520 --> 01:42:30,200 Speaker 2: in the top three. 2101 01:42:30,400 --> 01:42:30,439 Speaker 3: No. 2102 01:42:31,880 --> 01:42:34,960 Speaker 2: I like Drake May a lot. The guy is an 2103 01:42:35,320 --> 01:42:38,280 Speaker 2: incredibly accurate passer, and that's the thing. He doesn't have 2104 01:42:38,920 --> 01:42:41,439 Speaker 2: Jade and Daniels explosive running ability. 2105 01:42:41,680 --> 01:42:43,240 Speaker 1: No, but he's bigger, he's stronger. 2106 01:42:43,360 --> 01:42:45,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's bigger, stronger, he's sturdier. 2107 01:42:45,600 --> 01:42:45,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2108 01:42:45,800 --> 01:42:49,800 Speaker 2: And he is a good rushing quarterback as well. So 2109 01:42:50,560 --> 01:42:52,560 Speaker 2: if you need that to mention, he provides it. Not 2110 01:42:52,680 --> 01:42:56,960 Speaker 2: to a Daniels level, but he might provide more stability 2111 01:42:57,000 --> 01:42:58,760 Speaker 2: in terms of staying up right. 2112 01:42:58,960 --> 01:43:02,439 Speaker 1: There's an argument there. They're both tall. Daniels is not 2113 01:43:02,720 --> 01:43:05,360 Speaker 1: is a little more wiry. Drake May is a little bulkier. 2114 01:43:05,360 --> 01:43:07,559 Speaker 3: If they're both six to four, they're both pretty big, 2115 01:43:07,680 --> 01:43:11,879 Speaker 3: like they both fit the size profile. But Daniels definitely 2116 01:43:12,040 --> 01:43:16,080 Speaker 3: is more susceptible to the big hits because I think 2117 01:43:16,120 --> 01:43:19,639 Speaker 3: of his style, and I'll be honest, I think now 2118 01:43:19,680 --> 01:43:21,320 Speaker 3: that I'm kind of talking it out with you, I 2119 01:43:21,400 --> 01:43:24,040 Speaker 3: think I'll give Daniels the slight nod just because of 2120 01:43:24,080 --> 01:43:27,080 Speaker 3: the college success. I think in what I've seen recently 2121 01:43:27,280 --> 01:43:30,879 Speaker 3: in the NFL, experience matters, and I think Jade Daniels 2122 01:43:30,960 --> 01:43:34,360 Speaker 3: has a little bit more big game experience than Drake 2123 01:43:34,400 --> 01:43:35,240 Speaker 3: May just a little bit. 2124 01:43:35,360 --> 01:43:35,720 Speaker 1: Not much. 2125 01:43:35,840 --> 01:43:38,519 Speaker 3: It is a tight margin, but I think I just 2126 01:43:38,800 --> 01:43:41,320 Speaker 3: slightly give the edge to Daniels because of the tape 2127 01:43:41,360 --> 01:43:42,760 Speaker 3: and the Heisman and what he was able to do 2128 01:43:42,840 --> 01:43:43,160 Speaker 3: this year. 2129 01:43:43,320 --> 01:43:45,960 Speaker 2: I go differently than you because I don't put as 2130 01:43:46,040 --> 01:43:51,120 Speaker 2: much stock into college production. That's fair, It's just a 2131 01:43:51,160 --> 01:43:54,639 Speaker 2: different level to me. It's more about tools than college production. 2132 01:43:54,760 --> 01:43:56,559 Speaker 2: You could be Timmy Chang at Hawaii. 2133 01:43:57,160 --> 01:43:57,640 Speaker 6: Light it up. 2134 01:43:57,680 --> 01:43:58,160 Speaker 1: You know what I mean. 2135 01:43:58,479 --> 01:44:01,200 Speaker 2: Doesn't mean it's going to translate. McCoy was the winningest 2136 01:44:01,280 --> 01:44:04,519 Speaker 2: quarterback in college football history at the time at Texas, 2137 01:44:04,760 --> 01:44:08,160 Speaker 2: and that's not going to automatically translate. So I get 2138 01:44:08,240 --> 01:44:13,160 Speaker 2: more into the what tools do you have, what potential 2139 01:44:13,240 --> 01:44:15,840 Speaker 2: do you have? And mixed with of course what have 2140 01:44:16,040 --> 01:44:18,519 Speaker 2: you done? Production does matter to some point. I'm not 2141 01:44:18,600 --> 01:44:21,639 Speaker 2: saying it doesn't, but I don't rate it as highly. 2142 01:44:21,720 --> 01:44:24,679 Speaker 2: If this is like you're Madden rating and you're looking 2143 01:44:24,720 --> 01:44:28,400 Speaker 2: at all these different categories, I wouldn't have college production 2144 01:44:29,479 --> 01:44:30,920 Speaker 2: as high as some others. 2145 01:44:31,040 --> 01:44:34,080 Speaker 3: What about experience though, because right, you know, or Drake 2146 01:44:34,160 --> 01:44:36,080 Speaker 3: has one fewer year of starts. 2147 01:44:36,560 --> 01:44:37,559 Speaker 1: I think that matters. 2148 01:44:37,640 --> 01:44:40,519 Speaker 2: But if this was, say, like an Anthony Richardson thing 2149 01:44:40,840 --> 01:44:44,439 Speaker 2: from the Trubisky thing where they're starting one year, that 2150 01:44:44,640 --> 01:44:47,000 Speaker 2: matters a whole lot more to me than Hey, did 2151 01:44:47,040 --> 01:44:50,759 Speaker 2: you start twenty six games versus thirty five games? 2152 01:44:50,800 --> 01:44:51,320 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? 2153 01:44:51,439 --> 01:44:54,519 Speaker 2: Like, yeah, the experience helps, but when you've got a 2154 01:44:54,600 --> 01:44:57,519 Speaker 2: couple of seasons under your belt, I think that matters 2155 01:44:57,520 --> 01:45:00,479 Speaker 2: a lot. One last thing that makes me think with 2156 01:45:00,680 --> 01:45:05,280 Speaker 2: Jimmy G and how quickly things have changed. I mean, 2157 01:45:05,360 --> 01:45:08,040 Speaker 2: I'm not expecting it to go as south for Brock 2158 01:45:08,120 --> 01:45:10,560 Speaker 2: Purdy if something were to happen, But don't you have 2159 01:45:10,720 --> 01:45:12,840 Speaker 2: to keep that in mind. We are not that long 2160 01:45:12,920 --> 01:45:16,280 Speaker 2: ago from hearing people saying Jimmy G is a winner, 2161 01:45:16,560 --> 01:45:19,920 Speaker 2: the guy just wins it. You had people foaming at 2162 01:45:19,960 --> 01:45:23,560 Speaker 2: the mouth defending Jimmy G. And then he goes to 2163 01:45:23,680 --> 01:45:26,040 Speaker 2: the Raiders and all of a sudden, you blink and 2164 01:45:26,080 --> 01:45:29,360 Speaker 2: it's like, oh gosh, more interceptions than touchdowns. His passer 2165 01:45:29,439 --> 01:45:33,439 Speaker 2: rating is around seventy seven. He's benched for Aidan O'Connell. Like, 2166 01:45:33,640 --> 01:45:36,360 Speaker 2: you go from the who's who's supporting cast of the 2167 01:45:36,479 --> 01:45:41,080 Speaker 2: Niners to something else, and the individual numbers can look. 2168 01:45:40,960 --> 01:45:43,360 Speaker 1: A lot different. I'm just saying, keep it in mind. 2169 01:45:43,840 --> 01:45:46,360 Speaker 1: That's the big difference. You go from the Niners to 2170 01:45:46,439 --> 01:45:51,559 Speaker 1: the Raiders. Your warts. Like sometimes when I do TV, 2171 01:45:51,680 --> 01:45:54,360 Speaker 1: I put some makeup on my forehead because it gets 2172 01:45:54,360 --> 01:45:56,679 Speaker 1: a little shiny sometimes under the lights. Yeah. 2173 01:45:57,120 --> 01:45:59,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, when you go from the Niners to the Raiders, 2174 01:46:00,120 --> 01:46:01,840 Speaker 3: there's no makeup, there's no touch ups. 2175 01:46:02,040 --> 01:46:05,320 Speaker 1: It's the warts are all there there, it is. Yeah, 2176 01:46:06,240 --> 01:46:06,840 Speaker 1: real fast. 2177 01:46:06,960 --> 01:46:09,480 Speaker 2: Before we get to I Low, I thought John Middlkoff, 2178 01:46:09,920 --> 01:46:12,439 Speaker 2: he's a former NFL scout. He does a podcast with 2179 01:46:12,560 --> 01:46:16,200 Speaker 2: Colin Cowherd. I thought leading up to the Super Bowl, 2180 01:46:16,400 --> 01:46:19,479 Speaker 2: he made a great point about the Niners offense. Now 2181 01:46:20,040 --> 01:46:22,679 Speaker 2: listen to what he's saying and consider it in terms 2182 01:46:22,760 --> 01:46:24,800 Speaker 2: of what we were talking about with Jimmy g no 2183 01:46:24,920 --> 01:46:27,880 Speaker 2: longer with the Niners, and also how it benefits brock 2184 01:46:27,920 --> 01:46:28,880 Speaker 2: Purty right here right. 2185 01:46:28,840 --> 01:46:31,080 Speaker 6: Now, they run the ball to do two things. 2186 01:46:31,439 --> 01:46:34,360 Speaker 9: Establish just a physical you know, set the tone physically 2187 01:46:35,000 --> 01:46:36,800 Speaker 9: and prove that we're tougher than you and then their 2188 01:46:36,920 --> 01:46:39,559 Speaker 9: entire passing game is off that all the play action 2189 01:46:39,680 --> 01:46:42,599 Speaker 9: stuff that leads to a lot of easy completions. It's 2190 01:46:42,600 --> 01:46:45,439 Speaker 9: why when they're successful running the ball with McCaffrey, their 2191 01:46:45,479 --> 01:46:47,760 Speaker 9: offense can look pretty easy because guys get wide open 2192 01:46:48,000 --> 01:46:50,280 Speaker 9: because you're biting on the run. And then guys they 2193 01:46:50,320 --> 01:46:52,880 Speaker 9: have so much talent with their offensive weapons. When you 2194 01:46:52,960 --> 01:46:54,960 Speaker 9: can slow down the run, it throws them off a 2195 01:46:54,960 --> 01:46:56,120 Speaker 9: little bit, right. 2196 01:46:56,120 --> 01:46:59,479 Speaker 2: Jared, So think about that. What is Jimmy g when 2197 01:46:59,520 --> 01:47:02,160 Speaker 2: he doesn't have that Well, we kind of saw it 2198 01:47:02,320 --> 01:47:02,800 Speaker 2: last year. 2199 01:47:03,200 --> 01:47:06,360 Speaker 3: Very average, like the like the definition of average, like 2200 01:47:06,400 --> 01:47:08,679 Speaker 3: as Mikile Steve Zick would say, the eight of clubs, 2201 01:47:08,800 --> 01:47:09,440 Speaker 3: the middle. 2202 01:47:09,200 --> 01:47:09,800 Speaker 1: Card in the deck. 2203 01:47:10,720 --> 01:47:13,280 Speaker 2: So what is brock Purdy if he doesn't have an 2204 01:47:13,520 --> 01:47:18,240 Speaker 2: MVP candidate and Christian McCaffrey back there and play action passing. 2205 01:47:18,320 --> 01:47:20,919 Speaker 2: It's a big part of what they do that hinges 2206 01:47:21,080 --> 01:47:25,880 Speaker 2: on the running game. What is brock Purdy if aiden clubs? 2207 01:47:26,520 --> 01:47:30,360 Speaker 2: He's yeah, and like we've talked about this before. You 2208 01:47:30,560 --> 01:47:33,080 Speaker 2: take and I think it was Rich that framed it perfectly. 2209 01:47:33,560 --> 01:47:35,880 Speaker 2: You take Patrick Mahomes, you put him on the Niners 2210 01:47:35,960 --> 01:47:38,880 Speaker 2: and he's the champ. You take brock Purdy and put 2211 01:47:38,920 --> 01:47:41,040 Speaker 2: him on the Chiefs and the Chiefs are barely making 2212 01:47:41,080 --> 01:47:41,559 Speaker 2: the playoffs. 2213 01:47:41,920 --> 01:47:47,000 Speaker 1: Like it just that is just unfortunately his reality. 2214 01:47:47,560 --> 01:47:50,360 Speaker 3: Like I get it. Like I'm an unathletic guy too. 2215 01:47:51,000 --> 01:47:52,920 Speaker 3: Things come hard for me in that area. You have 2216 01:47:53,040 --> 01:47:54,960 Speaker 3: to work extra hart and Brock's more athletic than me. 2217 01:47:55,080 --> 01:47:57,840 Speaker 3: Let's just make that perfectly clear. But in terms of 2218 01:47:57,920 --> 01:48:00,720 Speaker 3: the NFL landscape, he's not on the higher end of 2219 01:48:00,760 --> 01:48:01,759 Speaker 3: the athletic spectrum. 2220 01:48:02,040 --> 01:48:03,320 Speaker 1: He has to be perfect. 2221 01:48:03,400 --> 01:48:07,880 Speaker 3: He needs everything to be executed perfectly around him in 2222 01:48:08,040 --> 01:48:09,880 Speaker 3: order for him. Now, he made a couple plays at 2223 01:48:09,920 --> 01:48:12,920 Speaker 3: the end of those Lions Packers games that maybe gave 2224 01:48:12,960 --> 01:48:16,920 Speaker 3: you some glimmers, but then he faced the top ten 2225 01:48:17,000 --> 01:48:20,600 Speaker 3: Chiefs defense and it's just those opportunities weren't there, And 2226 01:48:21,520 --> 01:48:22,360 Speaker 3: I just it's tough. 2227 01:48:22,680 --> 01:48:26,280 Speaker 1: He needs that perfect precision offense in order to really 2228 01:48:26,320 --> 01:48:26,960 Speaker 1: be successful. 2229 01:48:27,320 --> 01:48:32,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, hey, we have the perfect precision offense because 2230 01:48:32,439 --> 01:48:36,000 Speaker 2: we are spruced up for sure by one Isaac loewen Krump. 2231 01:48:36,360 --> 01:48:39,759 Speaker 2: You know what would we be without the running attack 2232 01:48:40,000 --> 01:48:42,479 Speaker 2: of Isaac loewen Krum Clubs. 2233 01:48:42,840 --> 01:48:45,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I Loo helps us out.

I don't think 2284 01:51:39,560 --> 01:51:41,240 Speaker 2: if he went to the Steelers they'd be a super 2285 01:51:41,280 --> 01:51:41,760 Speaker 2: Bowl team. 2286 01:51:41,960 --> 01:51:45,160 Speaker 1: You know, that's my take. I agree with that they'd 2287 01:51:45,200 --> 01:51:46,479 Speaker 1: be the same team they were last year. 2288 01:51:47,080 --> 01:51:50,360 Speaker 2: Tom writes in says, yes, the second best rushing quarterback 2289 01:51:50,400 --> 01:51:52,120 Speaker 2: in the history of the NFL should be out of 2290 01:51:52,200 --> 01:51:55,680 Speaker 2: the league. One out of the league. I don't know 2291 01:51:55,880 --> 01:51:58,759 Speaker 2: who the most sensitive fan base is. I put Party 2292 01:51:58,800 --> 01:52:02,320 Speaker 2: fans at the top food chain, and then shortly but 2293 01:52:02,600 --> 01:52:06,240 Speaker 2: beneath that, the Lamar fans are still very sensitive Lamar, 2294 01:52:06,640 --> 01:52:09,840 Speaker 2: the Fields fans are highly sensitive. Right? 2295 01:52:10,680 --> 01:52:11,599 Speaker 1: Is that the hierarchy? 2296 01:52:11,720 --> 01:52:14,280 Speaker 3: Is there anybody holding onto you like like like what 2297 01:52:14,479 --> 01:52:17,000 Speaker 3: like I understand for Brock like he's been in the 2298 01:52:17,080 --> 01:52:18,880 Speaker 3: NFC Championship game, in the Super Bowl in his first 2299 01:52:18,920 --> 01:52:21,800 Speaker 3: two years in his career, like, I understand why people 2300 01:52:21,800 --> 01:52:24,040 Speaker 3: are mad if you talk badly about that. 2301 01:52:25,320 --> 01:52:28,040 Speaker 1: What has Justin Field's done to warrant that kind of backing? 2302 01:52:28,360 --> 01:52:31,960 Speaker 1: That's the question. Yeah, he's ten twenty eight. 2303 01:52:34,400 --> 01:52:37,200 Speaker 3: Eight man, and I see upside like it's our job 2304 01:52:37,320 --> 01:52:41,040 Speaker 3: as betters to see by low diamonds in the rough. 2305 01:52:41,160 --> 01:52:43,320 Speaker 3: Like that's literally what I search for every day. And 2306 01:52:43,640 --> 01:52:47,960 Speaker 3: I vibe that with Justin Fields. Because his price is 2307 01:52:48,040 --> 01:52:51,200 Speaker 3: like six million dollars next year. That is a bargain 2308 01:52:51,280 --> 01:52:55,719 Speaker 3: for a quarterback with any talent, but Super Bowl contender, 2309 01:52:56,400 --> 01:52:57,200 Speaker 3: that is a stretch. 2310 01:52:57,320 --> 01:52:59,160 Speaker 2: Come on, man, hey real fast. I want to be 2311 01:52:59,200 --> 01:53:02,040 Speaker 2: positive here. Yeah, let's be positive. I threw this out there. 2312 01:53:02,920 --> 01:53:05,280 Speaker 2: There are four teams with the new GM. I guess 2313 01:53:05,360 --> 01:53:07,760 Speaker 2: you could count the Patriots as the fifth. They have 2314 01:53:08,000 --> 01:53:12,200 Speaker 2: the Facto GM and Ellie reassigned. Yeah, So of these teams, 2315 01:53:12,760 --> 01:53:15,160 Speaker 2: who do you think is gonna make the biggest turnaround 2316 01:53:15,640 --> 01:53:19,080 Speaker 2: in year one? So you've got we'll throw the Patriots 2317 01:53:19,120 --> 01:53:23,040 Speaker 2: in there. Also in the AFC, the Raiders and the Chargers. Okay, 2318 01:53:23,120 --> 01:53:25,760 Speaker 2: these all have new GMS, And also in the NFC 2319 01:53:25,960 --> 01:53:28,880 Speaker 2: the Panthers and the Commanders. Who's your team to make 2320 01:53:28,920 --> 01:53:29,719 Speaker 2: a big turnaround. 2321 01:53:29,800 --> 01:53:32,280 Speaker 3: Well, I think based off what we're talking about earlier, 2322 01:53:32,720 --> 01:53:35,439 Speaker 3: it's going to be hard to make a turnaround in 2323 01:53:35,520 --> 01:53:38,439 Speaker 3: the AFC West, Like it just you have to face 2324 01:53:38,600 --> 01:53:41,640 Speaker 3: Mahomes twice, you have to face the Broncos, you have 2325 01:53:41,720 --> 01:53:43,680 Speaker 3: to go to Denver. You know, the Chargers and the 2326 01:53:43,760 --> 01:53:47,200 Speaker 3: Raiders have an uphill battle in that division, in that conference. 2327 01:53:47,680 --> 01:53:52,280 Speaker 3: So I think those two variables makes it harder to 2328 01:53:52,360 --> 01:53:56,240 Speaker 3: pick them. And I keep going back to Washington. Yeah, 2329 01:53:56,360 --> 01:53:59,479 Speaker 3: I keep going back to Washington because they got all 2330 01:53:59,560 --> 01:54:02,479 Speaker 3: the ass. They've got a like the new GM of 2331 01:54:02,680 --> 01:54:06,080 Speaker 3: you know, Peters from what we hear reputationally speaking, is 2332 01:54:06,160 --> 01:54:09,960 Speaker 3: like Elked at player personnel development and choosing. 2333 01:54:10,560 --> 01:54:11,960 Speaker 1: They've got a lot of assets. 2334 01:54:13,240 --> 01:54:15,479 Speaker 3: You think dan Quinn, like of all the coaches that 2335 01:54:15,600 --> 01:54:17,880 Speaker 3: got brought in, I think dan Quinn might be like 2336 01:54:18,040 --> 01:54:20,240 Speaker 3: the steadiest of the hands. Right, he's been a head 2337 01:54:20,280 --> 01:54:24,000 Speaker 3: coach in the NFL before, he's had success before, he 2338 01:54:24,320 --> 01:54:26,760 Speaker 3: understands how to win, he understands defense. And then you 2339 01:54:26,840 --> 01:54:28,960 Speaker 3: bring in Kingsbury is kind of this like up you know, 2340 01:54:29,240 --> 01:54:32,440 Speaker 3: high upside offensive guy, and if you make the right 2341 01:54:33,000 --> 01:54:35,800 Speaker 3: pick at quarterback, you're in a division with some chance 2342 01:54:35,920 --> 01:54:37,520 Speaker 3: like I think the Commanders might have. 2343 01:54:37,520 --> 01:54:40,760 Speaker 1: A chance to really put together a interesting season. Yeah, 2344 01:54:40,800 --> 01:54:41,440 Speaker 1: I'm with you, man. 2345 01:54:41,520 --> 01:54:44,720 Speaker 2: That was of the eight job openings, that was my 2346 01:54:44,880 --> 01:54:48,640 Speaker 2: top one. Yeah, it's Washington and I just look, they 2347 01:54:48,720 --> 01:54:51,240 Speaker 2: have the most cap space. They've got six picks in 2348 01:54:51,320 --> 01:54:54,600 Speaker 2: the top one hundred. You can make a big turnaround. 2349 01:54:54,640 --> 01:54:57,000 Speaker 2: And I don't want to make this as simple as Hey, 2350 01:54:57,120 --> 01:54:59,200 Speaker 2: the Texans, they had the number two overall pick, just 2351 01:54:59,280 --> 01:55:01,800 Speaker 2: get the next seage Stroud. You're good, but you've got 2352 01:55:01,880 --> 01:55:05,120 Speaker 2: a legitimate chance. If Drake May is your guy at 2353 01:55:05,200 --> 01:55:08,600 Speaker 2: number two, you've got a legitimate chance to make major 2354 01:55:08,720 --> 01:55:09,840 Speaker 2: headway in year one. 2355 01:55:10,600 --> 01:55:12,640 Speaker 1: So yeah, I think what about Kingsbury. 2356 01:55:12,640 --> 01:55:14,280 Speaker 3: If they figure out a way, maybe they trade they 2357 01:55:14,320 --> 01:55:16,560 Speaker 3: have all these assets, trade up and get Caleb Williams. 2358 01:55:17,200 --> 01:55:20,040 Speaker 2: Like that would be pretty interesting, right? How about this? 2359 01:55:20,280 --> 01:55:24,920 Speaker 2: So the Washington gets Caleb with the Cliff Kingsbury thing. Yeah, 2360 01:55:25,120 --> 01:55:27,160 Speaker 2: and then the Bears what they slide down to number 2361 01:55:27,200 --> 01:55:29,400 Speaker 2: two and get another North Carolina quarterback? 2362 01:55:29,520 --> 01:55:33,360 Speaker 1: Oh, narrative Street is buzzing. 2363 01:55:33,640 --> 01:55:37,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you're either gonna have two North Carolina quarterbacks 2364 01:55:37,040 --> 01:55:40,560 Speaker 2: like Sam Howell and Drake May, you know, at least 2365 01:55:40,600 --> 01:55:42,480 Speaker 2: one after another I don't know if Sam would still 2366 01:55:42,520 --> 01:55:45,320 Speaker 2: be there or you're gonna have the Bears with the 2367 01:55:45,520 --> 01:55:48,120 Speaker 2: Mitch Trubisky Drake May North Carolina thing. 2368 01:55:48,480 --> 01:55:51,400 Speaker 3: How I'll say, you unc you know, got some decent, 2369 01:55:51,640 --> 01:55:54,080 Speaker 3: decent quarterbacks over the last decade or so, right, I mean, 2370 01:55:54,120 --> 01:55:56,600 Speaker 3: I know the NFL success maybe hasn't been there, but 2371 01:55:57,040 --> 01:55:59,240 Speaker 3: you get two guys drafted in the top five and 2372 01:55:59,320 --> 01:56:01,120 Speaker 3: the last, oh, now wasn't top five, but he was 2373 01:56:01,200 --> 01:56:03,280 Speaker 3: you know, it was your first round, second round somewhere. 2374 01:56:03,040 --> 01:56:05,760 Speaker 1: In the league. I think it was like fifth. Wow, 2375 01:56:05,920 --> 01:56:07,560 Speaker 1: he was down there. All right. So still you get 2376 01:56:07,560 --> 01:56:09,760 Speaker 1: two starting quarterbacks in the last ten years. 2377 01:56:09,840 --> 01:56:14,600 Speaker 2: Okay, number two probably both number two overall picks with Mitch. Yeah, 2378 01:56:14,960 --> 01:56:19,640 Speaker 2: that's definitely in the top five for one North carolinta quarterback, 2379 01:56:19,760 --> 01:56:21,480 Speaker 2: also a number two overall pick. 2380 01:56:22,120 --> 01:56:23,360 Speaker 1: You think of the three. 2381 01:56:23,240 --> 01:56:26,160 Speaker 3: Quarterbacks we've been talking about, which one he has? I guess, 2382 01:56:26,240 --> 01:56:28,600 Speaker 3: Caleb you throw out. But between Drake and jayde and Daniels, 2383 01:56:28,800 --> 01:56:30,320 Speaker 3: one of them is gonna drop. I just don't know 2384 01:56:30,360 --> 01:56:30,760 Speaker 3: which one. 2385 01:56:31,080 --> 01:56:32,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if you're right about 2386 01:56:32,840 --> 01:56:35,880 Speaker 1: you think it's one two three quarterback? Very well could be. Yeah, 2387 01:56:36,120 --> 01:56:37,200 Speaker 1: it's just a prem I think. 2388 01:56:37,080 --> 01:56:38,920 Speaker 3: Mark, I think someone's gonna look at Marvin Harrison and 2389 01:56:39,000 --> 01:56:40,760 Speaker 3: say he might be the best player in that drafted. 2390 01:56:40,680 --> 01:56:42,520 Speaker 1: To go get him. You might be right? All right? 2391 01:56:42,600 --> 01:56:44,920 Speaker 2: Coming up next, we got some picks to make. Huh, 2392 01:56:45,120 --> 01:56:48,320 Speaker 2: rapid fire around the corner.

Are we got picks to make? 2401 01:57:19,640 --> 01:57:20,360 Speaker 2: Let's dive into this. 2402 01:57:23,560 --> 01:57:24,400 Speaker 4: Rapid fire? 2403 01:57:25,360 --> 01:57:27,120 Speaker 1: All right, Jared, We'll start with you, man, what are 2404 01:57:27,120 --> 01:57:28,000 Speaker 1: you thinking this weekend? 2405 01:57:28,400 --> 01:57:28,600 Speaker 4: Well? 2406 01:57:29,160 --> 01:57:32,680 Speaker 3: I don't do this often, but I got some information 2407 01:57:32,760 --> 01:57:36,400 Speaker 3: about the NBA All Star Game tomorrow. Not the Star 2408 01:57:36,560 --> 01:57:40,480 Speaker 3: Saturday Night stuff, but tomorrow's game. That a whopper of 2409 01:57:40,520 --> 01:57:42,560 Speaker 3: a wager. One of the biggest wagers I've ever seen 2410 01:57:42,600 --> 01:57:45,240 Speaker 3: in an All Star Game. Got through on the under 2411 01:57:45,760 --> 01:57:49,280 Speaker 3: and it was like at a weird number. So we're 2412 01:57:49,320 --> 01:57:50,880 Speaker 3: starting to see this number come down a little bit. 2413 01:57:50,920 --> 01:57:53,600 Speaker 3: And I'm not advocating betting unders in All Star games 2414 01:57:53,680 --> 01:57:55,960 Speaker 3: very often, but it was a two hundred thousand dollars 2415 01:57:56,040 --> 01:57:58,600 Speaker 3: bet on under in the NBA All Star Game. 2416 01:57:59,000 --> 01:58:01,240 Speaker 1: Keep an eye on the total in the All Star Game. 2417 01:58:01,320 --> 01:58:03,480 Speaker 3: Over the next twenty four hours the limits expand at 2418 01:58:03,520 --> 01:58:06,200 Speaker 3: these sportsbooks, we will start to see some bets come in. 2419 01:58:06,360 --> 01:58:08,280 Speaker 3: I think the total is gonna keep coming down based 2420 01:58:08,320 --> 01:58:10,800 Speaker 3: off of this action. So I did put it under 2421 01:58:10,880 --> 01:58:13,720 Speaker 3: in at three sixty three and a half. There's some 2422 01:58:13,760 --> 01:58:15,840 Speaker 3: other numbers available out there, but we use bet MGM. 2423 01:58:15,920 --> 01:58:17,600 Speaker 3: So I did bet the under in the All Star Game. Again, 2424 01:58:18,000 --> 01:58:20,720 Speaker 3: not exactly a handicap I can analyze, because you know 2425 01:58:21,040 --> 01:58:23,280 Speaker 3: the over is always the bet in the All Star Game. 2426 01:58:23,320 --> 01:58:25,280 Speaker 1: But when you see a wager that big Brian, you 2427 01:58:25,720 --> 01:58:26,520 Speaker 1: start to pay attention. 2428 01:58:27,440 --> 01:58:30,200 Speaker 2: I hear you on that man and no elam ending 2429 01:58:30,320 --> 01:58:34,320 Speaker 2: this year. Yeah, it was such an embarrassment. Last year 2430 01:58:34,600 --> 01:58:37,360 Speaker 2: it was I'm not expecting playoff, lockdown defense. 2431 01:58:37,400 --> 01:58:39,080 Speaker 6: It's a little bit more a little bit more. 2432 01:58:39,320 --> 01:58:41,120 Speaker 1: Yeep, that's probably why. 2433 01:58:41,920 --> 01:58:42,960 Speaker 6: That probably is. 2434 01:58:44,480 --> 01:58:46,920 Speaker 2: I'm gonna look at I'm gonna give you a couple 2435 01:58:46,960 --> 01:58:49,640 Speaker 2: of first half lines here cheer, all right. So I'm 2436 01:58:50,080 --> 01:58:54,200 Speaker 2: over on Texas A and M. They're at Alabama. I 2437 01:58:54,240 --> 01:58:57,560 Speaker 2: don't love Alabama's defense. I'm going over thirty five and 2438 01:58:57,640 --> 01:59:00,440 Speaker 2: a half for the Aggies in the first half. 2439 01:59:01,000 --> 01:59:02,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna look, I'm gonna stay in the sec. 2440 01:59:03,160 --> 01:59:07,280 Speaker 2: LSU at South Carolina, I'm going under thirty two and 2441 01:59:07,360 --> 01:59:12,240 Speaker 2: a half for LSU. South Carolina's defense pretty good. Yeah, 2442 01:59:12,280 --> 01:59:14,760 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go for a team total for the entire game. 2443 01:59:15,000 --> 01:59:20,840 Speaker 2: Give me Marquette at Yukon. I say Marquette doesn't break seventy. Okay, 2444 01:59:21,160 --> 01:59:24,480 Speaker 2: under seventy and a half. I guess they could break seventy, 2445 01:59:24,680 --> 01:59:26,840 Speaker 2: just as long as it's not any more than that. Yeah, 2446 01:59:26,880 --> 01:59:29,520 Speaker 2: But to keep it simple, I say they don't break seventy. 2447 01:59:29,600 --> 01:59:31,440 Speaker 2: Give me under seventy and a half of their team 2448 01:59:31,520 --> 01:59:32,720 Speaker 2: total against Yukon. 2449 01:59:34,280 --> 01:59:36,120 Speaker 1: That's what I'm right. How about we go to my 2450 01:59:36,320 --> 01:59:40,879 Speaker 1: favorite team in history. We're definitely laying thirteen with Colgate 2451 01:59:40,920 --> 01:59:45,160 Speaker 1: today against Bucknell. They just beat him by ten eleven 2452 01:59:45,240 --> 01:59:48,320 Speaker 1: points on the Road a couple weeks ago. Now they 2453 01:59:48,440 --> 01:59:49,040 Speaker 1: play at home. 2454 01:59:49,200 --> 01:59:52,560 Speaker 3: And listen, guys, I know it sounds and girls, I 2455 01:59:52,680 --> 01:59:55,200 Speaker 3: know it sounds like I'm just picking the same team 2456 01:59:55,440 --> 01:59:55,960 Speaker 3: every week. 2457 01:59:56,480 --> 02:00:00,200 Speaker 1: But the market is wrong on these mid major teams at. 2458 02:00:00,440 --> 02:00:03,480 Speaker 3: And they just kind of pop the number up based 2459 02:00:03,520 --> 02:00:05,800 Speaker 3: off of the rating, and they don't use a whole 2460 02:00:05,840 --> 02:00:09,320 Speaker 3: lot of context with what these teams are. Colegate has 2461 02:00:09,360 --> 02:00:11,320 Speaker 3: won ten straight and they're one of the hottest teams 2462 02:00:11,360 --> 02:00:14,160 Speaker 3: in college basketball, and they just own the Patriot League 2463 02:00:14,240 --> 02:00:17,200 Speaker 3: and Buckdal's bad. The numbers wrong, like the number should 2464 02:00:17,200 --> 02:00:19,120 Speaker 3: be probably fifteen or sixteen. So I late thirteen with 2465 02:00:19,200 --> 02:00:21,480 Speaker 3: Colgate today. It's probably. 2466 02:00:23,040 --> 02:00:25,040 Speaker 1: Not the sexiest pick in the world. Again, when we 2467 02:00:25,120 --> 02:00:26,040 Speaker 1: bet in the same team, but. 2468 02:00:26,480 --> 02:00:29,560 Speaker 2: Lay it with Colgate, Man, if it hits nothing wrong 2469 02:00:29,600 --> 02:00:32,160 Speaker 2: with that, It's like football, if the running play is successful, 2470 02:00:32,240 --> 02:00:34,320 Speaker 2: to keep going back to the well, baby, do it? 2471 02:00:35,160 --> 02:00:36,280 Speaker 2: Keep stacking chips
