But I was thinking 67 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: about this and I it hit me when I worked 68 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: in the NFL, and it's something that I've I've kept 69 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: with me as I've changed professions, and just think about life. 70 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: How much character and intangibles matter. Now here's a simple 71 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: reality of the way life works. And any of us, 72 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: anyone listening knows, regardless what you do, we are not 73 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: born with the same amount of talent. Some people are 74 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: intellectually superior than others. Some people have more God given 75 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: gifts in terms of physical attributes when it comes to athleticism. 76 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: Some of us are better looking. Some of you guys 77 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: listening have great hair. I got no hair. Some of 78 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: you guys are tall. Some of us are born with 79 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: chubby genetics. We all are not the same, and what 80 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: separates us as time goes on is that one thing 81 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: is always necessary and to me, will never go out 82 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: of style. Now things change, technology has changed the game. 83 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: But a work ethic and a desire to work hard 84 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: at whatever given you know, profession you may choose, is 85 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: required to be really good at your profession. Now some 86 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 1: people are more talented. I remember a guy I lived 87 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 1: with in college named Jesse Dundon's smartest guy I've ever met. 88 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: Could get straight a's with his eyes closed and didn't 89 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: have to study, didn't have to go to class. Well, 90 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: he's gone on to create a company. He sold the company. 91 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: He's really impressive. He has a fantastic work ethic. He 92 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: could have got buy as a straight A student and 93 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 1: not done anything and had a four point oh electrical 94 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: engineer at cal Poly and just cruise do a job. Well. 95 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: He was a very driven individual. He became an entrepreneur 96 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: and you know, I don't have his ban account numbers, 97 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: but I'm pretty sure he's become a millionaire. And it's 98 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: because he's willing to work really, really hard. And I've 99 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 1: been lucky enough in in my life growing up. One 100 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: of my best friends growing up whose dad was the CEO. 101 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: Another friend his dad, his grandpa started a construction company 102 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: and then I got into the NFL, I worked for 103 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: Andy Reid, and then now I'm partnered with Colin Coward 104 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: for a law. My entire life, I've been lucky enough, 105 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 1: either working with or through friends and their parents or 106 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: grandparents to see people at the highest level of their profession. 107 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: If you called any one of those guys, the most 108 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: offensive thing you could say to any one of them 109 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: would be to call him lazy. I saw at firsthand 110 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: for years when I worked in the Eagles building, Andy 111 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 1: reads worth ethic is second to none, and knowing people 112 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: that still work at him with with him, nothing has 113 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: changed as he won the Super Bowl. His work ethic 114 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: is his work ethic. It was like that thirty years ago. 115 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: It's like that right now when he's making huge money 116 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: and well accomplished and considered the second best coach in 117 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: the league. He's a grinder. That's who he is. He 118 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: doesn't do it necessarily for the money or you know, 119 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: for the like. He's there to grind every day. It's 120 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: just ingrained in him and he naturally, let's face it, 121 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: is better than of the people that he's going up against. 122 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 1: So when you go up against a guy who is 123 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: equal your talent or better, and he's out working you 124 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: you're gonna lose. I'll never forget going down to l 125 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: A like three or four years ago. If you've listened 126 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: to Colin for a long time, he used to have 127 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: a producer named John Goulay, and I got to meet 128 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: John Goulay when he worked in San Francisco. He worked 129 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: for the radio station which I worked at. We became buddies, 130 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: and I remember kind of telling him like, Hey, I'm 131 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: coming to l A. I kind of forced myself on 132 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: the show, and I told him I also want to 133 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: do I remember texting Colin like, Hey, can I show 134 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: up when you show up and just watch how you 135 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 1: guys prepare for the show. This was probably in two 136 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: thousand nineteen. He's like, hell, yeah, come in whenever you want, 137 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: so Gooley put my name on the list. I'm like, 138 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,239 Speaker 1: what time do you guys show up for his FS 139 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: one show? You know it shows at nine. I'm thinking 140 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: maybe they get there at seven thirty or whatever. He's like, well, 141 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: Colin usually gets around five thirty and we start meeting 142 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: at six six am. They met from six am to 143 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: like eight putting the show together. They've done that every 144 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: day and John works now for Visa and Brent Musburger's company. 145 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: But I remember showing up there and I remember walking 146 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: into like five fifty Colin was already sitting there. So like, 147 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: if you are in this business of talking for a 148 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: living and you want to be as good as him, 149 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: he's not just riding the coattails of being some famous, 150 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: really talented broadcaster. He's a fucking grinder. So when you're 151 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: going up against Andy Reid, when you're going up against 152 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: Colin Coward, obviously at this point in time, both those guys, 153 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say have mastered their career because I don't 154 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: know if you ever truly can Like Tom Brady Tiger Woods, 155 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: never mastered. You know, you're always looking to improve. But 156 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: their working I think a second to none. So they're 157 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: the most one of the most talented guys in their field, 158 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: and they're the hardest working. It comes with the territory. 159 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: It's why the reality is. In football. For example, I 160 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: wasn't the big biggest Kirk Cousins guy. I'm not the 161 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: biggest Mac Jones guy. Hell. I thought Jalen Hurts was 162 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: a running back. But one thing I underestimated on them 163 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: all because I think a lot of times we just 164 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: talked about the football player, which is what matters, because ultimately, 165 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,319 Speaker 1: when you're a quarterback, you have to throw the out throw, 166 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,479 Speaker 1: the deep comeback throw, the go route that that is required. 167 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: But what can't ever be underestimated is how much and 168 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: your drive and desire means to you to be great 169 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: at the sport. Let's start with Jalen Hurts. Obviously I 170 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: know people in Philadelphia his work ethic and drive to 171 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: be the best possible football player he can be, because, 172 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: let's face it, up, the three Oklahoma guys that Lincoln 173 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: coached that went pro right to number one overall picks 174 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 1: in Jalen Baker, Mayfield, Kyler Murray, Jalen Hurts. Jalen Hurts 175 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: by far of the group, has the hardest work ethic, 176 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: wants to be great the most, even though of the three, 177 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: he by far is the least talented. The other two 178 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: guys not debatable, like gaming is much When I say gaming, 179 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,079 Speaker 1: playing video games as much as they do playing football. 180 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray will get in him here in a little bit, 181 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 1: like if he worked as hard as Jalen, he would 182 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 1: be Lamar Jackson. Instead, he clearly does not. Baker struggle 183 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,319 Speaker 1: with that because you can get by once you get 184 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: to a certain level. And listen, it's human. It's human 185 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 1: nature sometimes to be content when you're the number one 186 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,319 Speaker 1: overall pick. Like my old thing with Kyler Murray getting paid. 187 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: When you're the number one overall pick in the NFL, 188 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 1: you get a four year, thirty seven million dollar contract 189 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: and then the fifth year option. I saw Lamar Jackson's 190 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 1: making twenty three million dollars. So if you make it 191 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 1: to the fifth year option right now you're the number 192 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: one picked this last couple of years, you're basically signing 193 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: a fifty five sixty million dollar contract last time I checked, 194 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: even in inflationary times, that's a lot of coin. And 195 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: Mac Jones is a good example. Matt Jones is gonna 196 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: maximize every ounce of talent the guy has, which from 197 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: NFL standards is probably average, but he is gonna be 198 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: in an above average player. Why he really gives a ship. 199 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,680 Speaker 1: He is really gonna try. You don't have to ask, 200 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: Hey Mac, did you watch that extra film? Hey Mack, 201 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,679 Speaker 1: did you change your diet? Hey Mac, were you in 202 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: the weight room? He naturally will be and he's never 203 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: gonna be the strongest hell, he might not be the smartest, 204 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: but he is gonna do everything to maximize his future 205 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 1: ability at the position. And ultimately, if his cop is 206 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, that's pretty good because what Kirk Cousins has 207 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: turned into is a guy that's gonna make hundreds of 208 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 1: millions of dollars, throw thirty five touchdowns every year, and 209 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 1: got every ounce of ability out of his career when 210 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 1: it ends. Because if Kirk Cousins would have been a 211 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 1: guy didn't like to lift that much, didn't put that 212 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 1: extra film time in, he would have been washed out 213 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 1: of the league. He would not have made it. And 214 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 1: that's why when the top guys, like when you get 215 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: a Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Justin Herbert that have the 216 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: elite talent and then they have the elite work ethic, 217 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: they're unbeatable. When you get Colin Coward, who talks unlike 218 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 1: any other sports talk host in America with his analogies 219 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 1: and the way he looks at life and talks about 220 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: business when most of the media despises business and resonates 221 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: with groups of people like me and you that most 222 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: others do not. And he also works the hardest like 223 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: he's going to crush it. When you get Andy Reid, 224 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: who clearly has a natural, innate feel throughout his career 225 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,719 Speaker 1: for offensive football, who was also a guy once the 226 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: season starts, who's willing to work eighteen twenty hour days. 227 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 1: Not many people are gonna beat him. And once you 228 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 1: give him Patrick Mahomes good luck, he's gonna kick everyone's ass. 229 00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: Belichick fell into that umbrella. Belichick smarter and basically everyone 230 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: in the league, hardest working guy in the league, notorious, 231 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: insane hours, got Tom Brady, Rest's history, beat the ship 232 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 1: out of everybody. Because the NFL is a grinder's league, 233 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 1: It's a grinders sport. I was. You know, it's weird. 234 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: I'm so far removed now and I'm at such a 235 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 1: different point in my life, but looking back, how intense 236 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: it was, the stress, the hours, It was an incredible 237 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 1: experience for me, not just for myself, but being able 238 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: to witness Sean McDermott, uh Todd Bowles, Andy Reid, these 239 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: guys work, and these guys grind and see what it 240 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: takes Howie Roseman at the highest level of the profession. 241 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: It's something that I still carry with me today because 242 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: I say it all the time. The NFL is Wall 243 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 1: Street on grass. The money is high when you're at 244 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: the top, right when you become a coordinator, when you 245 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: become a head coach, when you become at GM. But 246 00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: the stress, the intensity, the public pressure, the lack of sleep, 247 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: six straight months, you're you're on tilt. There aren't many 248 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: days when you're just chilling. That's not the way it works. 249 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 1: The place that was the most stressful for like twenty 250 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: years was the place that was the most UH successful, 251 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 1: and that was New England. Everyone was on tilt there 252 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: seven three sixty five for decades and they were winning 253 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: that They won six Super Bowls, Yet no one and 254 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: I met a lot of people over the years that 255 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: at the time they were working there or after the fact, 256 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 1: and they were just like that place, you're on fucking edge. 257 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,680 Speaker 1: It's like when you read about Steve Cohen and the 258 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: way he used to run his UH his financial firms. 259 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: The guy the show Billions was after right, the guy 260 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: that owns the Mets now, And he wasn't alone. A 261 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: lot of guys were like that financial The Wall Street 262 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: in the NFL very similar that way. Everyone on edge. 263 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 1: Everyone piste off the other day. Kyle Shanahan and John 264 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: Lynch talked for the first time of the season, and 265 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 1: I quoted this. I made a joke on Twitter about 266 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: how John Lynch kind of regretted, you know, he should 267 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: have gotten to Amazon, could have four exceeds salary, could 268 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: have been on the beach, not have the stresses. And 269 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 1: the picture of Kyle Kyle Shanahan already looked exhausted, and 270 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: people like, God, how do these guys already looked tired? 271 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: Because they know what they're getting into that there is 272 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: no walking into the shallow winding football. You dive right 273 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 1: into the deep end in shark infested waters and you're 274 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: just trying to survive. It's intense. And that's why these quarterbacks, 275 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: over the history of my adult life, the guys that 276 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: have had the most success have just been had no 277 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 1: balance in their life. It's been all football. They're addicted 278 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: to the sport of football. The best coaches and the 279 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: best quarterbacks. There is no you know, I just kind 280 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: of chill Monday through Wednesday, and then I get the 281 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: game plan and then they give it to me and 282 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: then I figure it out from there. I just kind 283 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: of wing it. The NFL is not I just kind 284 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: of wing it leak. This isn't the NBA. You know, 285 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: I just kind of go on instincts and I score 286 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: thirty five with ease against my opponents. That ain't the 287 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 1: case because if you don't study and you're playing the 288 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: Jets or you're playing the Pittsburgh Steelers, you can lose 289 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 1: by twenty. And it's why Ultimately you want the best players, 290 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 1: the guys, the most talented, that have the work ethic. 291 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: But quarterback is the one position. Drew Brees did not 292 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 1: have elite talent. He he just did not. Kirk Cousins 293 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: does not have elite talent. Dak Prescott does not have 294 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: elite talent. Now, Dak Prescott and Kirk Cousins are not 295 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: Drew Brees, but there's a reason we all agree they're 296 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: like top twelve quarterbacks. We can argue they make a 297 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 1: little too much money, but you never have to worry 298 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: about their give a ship, you never have to worry 299 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: about their preparation, you never have to worry about everything 300 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: leading into the game. There are some things to be 301 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: leave desired once the game starts, but most people are 302 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: besides like Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen, Tom Brady can't move. 303 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: If his offensive line is not playing well, he's screwed. 304 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 1: So I think part of this is like Kyler Murray, 305 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 1: great talent, but if he's not gonna work, you have 306 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: to short his career. It is not going to work out. 307 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: It's why I will short anyone long term in any 308 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: profession when you go, yeah, he's lazy, because you can 309 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: overcome dumb. How many people do you know they are 310 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: successful in their job that aren't that smart? Most people. 311 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: I don't know that many Harvard grats. I don't know 312 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: that many people that went to Stanford or U c. 313 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: L A. And the couple I do got in because athletics. 314 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 1: I'm just a state school guy. You can overcome a 315 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: lot with trying, with putting your maximum effort in. Now, 316 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: would I give you a guy that's really smart and 317 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: he tries, You're like my buddy Jesse. You create a company, 318 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: you become a millionaire. But I know a lot of 319 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: millionaires that you know aren't passing that many standardized tests. 320 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: Why because they try really really hard.

So when Kyle the Murray today gave 339 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,880 Speaker 1: these quotes, he got really defensive, he got very angry, 340 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,719 Speaker 1: And there's a simple reality. The criticism that Kyler's had 341 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: has been one He's just physically small, and I think 342 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 1: we all ask can that hold up over a decade 343 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 1: long period, that is a fair question to ask. And 344 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: then the other kind of unquantifiable one is God, damn, 345 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 1: his body language is bad. My mom can see that. 346 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: Former scout and me can see that. If you're a 347 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 1: you know, insurance salesman, you can see that. Everyone can 348 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 1: see that. That's not debatable either. But that doesn't determine 349 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,400 Speaker 1: your success or not. So we didn't know how much 350 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: he studies, Like I don't actually know how much Josh 351 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,439 Speaker 1: Allen studies. I assume he studies a lot because I 352 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 1: know the way his coaches minded, and I know the 353 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: way they talk about him. I think it's fair to 354 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 1: say he does everything humanly possible to be the best 355 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: football player. Where Kyler Murray, no one knew how much film. 356 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: It never came up until the team put it out 357 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,360 Speaker 1: or it leaked out through rap sheet, the team put 358 00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: it in the contract. And he gave some quotes today 359 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: that I thought were like, who's he mad at? Why 360 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 1: is he mad at us? We didn't create this conversation. 361 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 1: The Arizona Cardinals did. He said, there's multiple different ways 362 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: to watch film. This is what he originally said, or 363 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: he said it you know as of Thursday, which no, 364 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: there's not there's one way. You either grab an iPad 365 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 1: or you go to the film room, a TV or whatever, 366 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: and you press play. Every single human being, whether you're 367 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,679 Speaker 1: an NFL player or whether it's me, watches film the 368 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 1: same way. You sit there and you press play. Now 369 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: what you would take is different. And then he says, 370 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,959 Speaker 1: of course we all watch film, which again is not true. 371 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 1: Every guy in the NFL watches film when they're in 372 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 1: the facility, as an offensive lineman, as a defensive back, 373 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: as a quarterback with their coach. Yes, they all watch 374 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 1: film once practice or the film or the meeting room 375 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: ends and you get to go home. Some people do, 376 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: some people do not. Again not debatable. Players have talked 377 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: about this, coaches have talked about this. Former players that said, 378 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 1: I wish I would have done more. But here's what 379 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 1: really pissed me off, and pissed me off is strong, 380 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 1: but just made me go I again, I am going 381 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 1: to short the Arizona Cardinals. I am betting against them 382 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,360 Speaker 1: moving forward. Could they have some moments this year, could 383 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: they get into playoffs, Yes, because they do have enough talent. 384 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: But over the next big picture, the next several years, 385 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: I'm out, and I'm way out. And it used to 386 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: be because of Cliff Kingsbury. Now it's way more because 387 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:31,360 Speaker 1: of their quarterback. Here's what he says. My film watching 388 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,199 Speaker 1: doesn't need to be questioned. I refuse to let my 389 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: work ethic and my preparation be in question. I've put 390 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: in an incomprehensible amount of time into what I do. Again, Kyler, 391 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 1: there wasn't a soul in America, so that watches consumes 392 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: talks about the NFL. Who questioned your work ethic? The 393 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 1: team did, and then we all started talking about it. 394 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 1: The team put in a clause that is unprecedented in 395 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 1: the NFL with the quarterback that you signed. So without 396 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: the team doing this, this combat conversation never exists. So 397 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 1: the only person and the only group of people questioning 398 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 1: you're uh incomprehensible amount of time that you put in 399 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: and your film watching is literally your employee, the people 400 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: that sign your checks. Cliff Kingsbury the other day said 401 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: he had nothing to do with this. Steve come Maybe 402 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,159 Speaker 1: he did, maybe he didn't. The owner, the dude that 403 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: provides the money. Actually we provide the money as the fans, 404 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: as the consumer. The guy that has access to the 405 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 1: money who is also the team's lawyer, and this contract 406 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: was read over. Florio wrote about it is a fact 407 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 1: I remember watching Amazon Prime did like a hard Knox 408 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 1: on them years ago. He is very active in the 409 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 1: financial aspect of their team because again he has a 410 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: law background and can recontracts. Let's just assume he put 411 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: it in, which I think is safe to do. The 412 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: guy signing your checks does not trust you as a worker, Well, 413 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,479 Speaker 1: you think he all those you're around on an early basis, 414 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 1: of course, not where is he getting that from the 415 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: head coach and the general manager. So the three most 416 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,880 Speaker 1: important guys in the building, the head coach, the GM, 417 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: and obviously the owner question your work ethic. Not us, 418 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: not the fans, not the media, the team. They're the 419 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 1: ones that put this in there, and that's why we 420 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:24,640 Speaker 1: talk about it. And this gets back to absolutely embarrassing 421 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: for the Arizona Cardinals to pay him with having these 422 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:32,120 Speaker 1: question marks. It makes no sense. The reason guys get 423 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 1: huge contracts is because they've earned it on and off 424 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: the field. Now you can say sometimes over the years 425 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 1: in pro sports, guys have been questionable characters off the field, 426 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 1: which Kyler is not. But just in terms of work ethic, 427 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 1: and just you don't trust like how much he loves football, 428 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 1: basketball or baseball, but he's so good you can't deny him. 429 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,879 Speaker 1: And I'd say that is true. But typically they have 430 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 1: just dominated. They have you know, been a several time 431 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: All Stars, several time Pro Bowl or what that is 432 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: not Kyler Murray. He has had multiple stretches in his 433 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: first or second and third year, but he's crumbled both 434 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: seasons and their one playoff appearance was an abomination. So 435 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: they gave him a contract when they questioned his work 436 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: ethic and he hadn't really proven it. Tell me how 437 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 1: that's gonna work out? In what line of work? Does 438 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 1: that ever work out? It's why Lamar Jackson, for example, 439 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,479 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. Every time I see a clip of Lamar Jackson, 440 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,880 Speaker 1: the difference of Kyler Murray, there's like a negativity around him. 441 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 1: He feels like kind of a drain of energy. Whenever 442 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 1: I see Lamar, he makes me smile, he makes me 443 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 1: feel good. And knowing a couple of people with the Ravens, 444 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,439 Speaker 1: they say he is an uplifter in football. They call 445 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: it a multiplier. He rises people around him, and he's 446 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: got some flaws, just like Kyler not a perfect player 447 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: by any means, but I like being around uplifters, multipliers 448 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: people with positive energy because as the leader of the team, 449 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,360 Speaker 1: which a quarterback is, and we know Kyler's leadership was questioned. 450 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,719 Speaker 1: They literally talked about it last year. The reason they 451 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,400 Speaker 1: had to overpay J. J. Watt because they were desperate 452 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: for leadership in their team and in their franchise. Wasn't 453 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 1: that what the quarterback provides? You never hear when the 454 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: Ravens signed someone go, we needed a leadership. Now that's 455 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 1: what Lamar provides. But if I was consulting Lamar and 456 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: clearly he doesn't have an agent, it's just his mom, 457 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: and I think he's getting terrible advice. I admire Lamar's 458 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 1: love of football. No one has ever questioned how much time, 459 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: how much effort, how much film the guy watches and 460 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 1: obviously set out for a little bit in no T S. 461 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 1: But the mandatory O T S I would have held in. 462 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: He showed up and then he practices. He practiced, and 463 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,439 Speaker 1: talking to someone that was there, they're like he was 464 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 1: he looked awesome. I saw Kyle Hamilton's went on the 465 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 1: Notre Dame pod that was for the volume who said 466 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 1: it was crazy how good he was. Lamar Jackson showed 467 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 1: up despite not being their offseason and was awesome. Well, 468 00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: now push comes to Shove training campus starting. I think 469 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: it is insanity for Lamar Jackson, who has to look 470 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 1: at himself. And I know it's hard because the difference 471 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 1: about pro sports than most businesses, Like we buy buildings, 472 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,439 Speaker 1: you know, we buy companies, we buy products, there's not 473 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: much emotion behind it. In pro sports. Lamar Jackson is 474 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: worth hundreds of millions of dollars, right Steph Curry, Lebron James, 475 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:25,120 Speaker 1: Mike Trout. Human beings. It's like an actor or a musician. 476 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 1: The human is worth everything, not the building, not the company, brand, 477 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 1: the person and their talent. Lamar Jackson, who is because 478 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 1: of his fifth year option, is gonna make twenty three 479 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: million dollars this season, and obviously because he wasn't you know, 480 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,160 Speaker 1: a top five pick. He's made good money. I would 481 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 1: guess five six million dollars, but nothing nowhere near like 482 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: Kyler or Bosa or the guys that get drafted really high. 483 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: And he's gonna make twenty three million dollars. Let's just 484 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,159 Speaker 1: pick it even. Let's just say he's made five million dollars. 485 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 1: At the end of this year, he would have made 486 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: twenty eight million dollars. Might be off a little bit, 487 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 1: but just for for my example, we know at minimum, 488 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 1: at minimum, he is gonna get a hundred fifty million 489 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,679 Speaker 1: dollars guaranteed. You could argue he's well worth given the 490 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:13,479 Speaker 1: other guys that are signing hundred seventy d sixty eight 491 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 1: somewhere in that range. That is so much fucking money 492 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 1: that under no circumstances. And again I admire his desire 493 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: to play football, to practice football and be a part 494 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 1: of the team, but he is risking so much money 495 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 1: right now, so much money. It is stupid and the 496 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 1: sport of football, we've seen it before and we'll see 497 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: it again. So much is out of your control, especially 498 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: at quarterback. A guy falls on your ankle, hell you 499 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 1: plant wrong. He's an athletic runner. We saw Teddy Bridgewater 500 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 1: in a non contact drill just in basically like a 501 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: I don't even think it was full speed. It was 502 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: like an elevated walkthrough. Plant wrong and ruin his career. Now, 503 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: he still ended up making an actually decent out of money, 504 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 1: but he was trending to be a starting quarterback. You know, 505 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: it turns out he probably would have been like probably 506 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 1: a little lesser of like a Kirk Cousins, but he 507 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: was never the same. And if you're Lamar Jackson, you 508 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 1: can't afford for something that you can't control, that happen 509 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: to your body and cost you a hundred and fifty 510 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:27,400 Speaker 1: to a hundred seventy million dollars. I I can't. He's 511 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: not getting advice clearly because he does not have an agent, 512 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 1: he doesn't have the right people in his corner. This 513 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 1: is insane, honestly. The Ravens and I'm his again, I'm 514 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: probably his pro business and it's definitely when it comes 515 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: to football is pro team as anyone you'll listen to 516 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:46,640 Speaker 1: someone with the Ravens, Jaharbaugh, Ozzy knew some da Costa 517 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 1: and they never would because all they care about is 518 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: the season. Be like bro Let's just and I saw 519 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 1: John Harbaugh said today like something is gonna happen soon. Well, 520 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: until that thing happens, Lamar Jackson should not practice that. 521 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: There is just two sho on the line. He just 522 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 1: saw it. A couple of years ago. Remember Ronnie Stanley 523 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: signed a contract. I think it was like sixty seventy 524 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: million dollars guaranteed. I think the next game is ankle shattered. 525 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 1: This is a very very physical game. People get hurt 526 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,959 Speaker 1: and ruined careers all the time. And I for a 527 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 1: guy too, that is very predicated on runaround movement. He's 528 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: not some pocket quarterback. This isn't Philip Rivers. Rivers tearing 529 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 1: his a c L in two thousand seven and going 530 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,360 Speaker 1: on to have another fifteen year career as a pocket quarterback. 531 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: That's not Lamar Jackson. Uh. I think he's nuts, and 532 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,439 Speaker 1: I think someone needs to tell him, like, bro, you 533 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: need to back off until you put pen to paper. 534 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: Another situation, that part of business is there's a give 535 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 1: and take. One side can always screw the other side 536 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 1: as a partner at the level once, especially in the NFL, 537 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 1: when you start paying people a lot of money, everyone's winning, 538 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: right when I pay, Like the Chiefs are winning and 539 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: the Patrick Mahomes deal and Patrick Mahomes is winning. The 540 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: Chiefs got Patrick Mahomes, they pay him forty five million. 541 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 1: Everyone's he's getting filthy rich, he plays great. It's a 542 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: win win for everyone involved. The forty Niners were gifted 543 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo. Once upon a time, Kyle Shanahan was driving 544 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: to work, I think it like five five in the 545 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: morning and got a phone call from Bill Belichick, might 546 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 1: have been six and said, you got one hour Jimmy 547 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 1: Garoppolo for second round pick. Done deal. I'm not shopping him. 548 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 1: This is the deal. The deal was done in thirty minutes, 549 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: and the rest is history. They signed him to a 550 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: big contract. I just looked today. Jimmy Garoppolo for the 551 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 1: Sandsco forty Niners has made around a hundred and twelve 552 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: million dollars. Now, it was fruitful from both sides. Right, 553 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: the Niners have made multiple championship games. They got to 554 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. He gave them a quarterback could have 555 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: gotten a little smoother. But ultimately, when Jimmy Garoppolo was 556 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 1: healthy and their starting quarterback, they ade it to a 557 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 1: Super Bowl and they made it to an NFC championship game. 558 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: Most teams would sell their left nut. They have that success. 559 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 1: They Jimmy Garoppolo. Now you could argue how much he did, 560 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: how much he didn't do as the starting quarterback. The 561 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: team won four playoff games in three years. But if 562 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: I'm Jimmy Garoppolo, It's over, Kyle Shanahannah said, I'm going 563 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 1: with Tray Lance. Trey Lance is a starting quarterback. We 564 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: know that, well, I didn't see today he uh he 565 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: missed like half his passes. But again, all their chipster 566 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: in the middle of the table on Trey Lance, and 567 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: really they were the moment they made that enormous trade. 568 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: This Jimmy situation is a little weird, right, Typically when 569 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 1: you make a transition with a young quarterback, the older 570 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 1: quarterback is shipped out in the off season. Right. Let's 571 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: use the Chiefs for an example, because I think there's 572 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: some parallels. I don't ever think Trey Lance is gonna 573 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 1: be as good as Patrick Mahomes. I'm never gonna say that. 574 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: But like Patrick, Patrick got to inherit a playoff team 575 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 1: with a playoff coach, and you know he won the 576 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 1: m v P. They started going to championship games the 577 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: rest of history. Like Trey Lands, he gets a playoff 578 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 1: coach and a loaded roster team with an excellent defense. Deebo, Samuel, 579 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 1: George Kittle, Brandon, I you, Kyle us check, Trent Williams, 580 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 1: A million running backs loaded for most of these guys. 581 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: Zack Wilson, Trevor Lawrence, I mean they went to uh, 582 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: I mean a ship sandwich. Trevor Lawrence got Irban Meyer's kicking. 583 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: People didn't even know who Aaron Donald was. Zack Wilson 584 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: went to the Jets. The Justin Fields went to the 585 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 1: Bears that they have no talent. This this guy really 586 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: is a kid. I think he's twenty two years old, 587 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 1: gets to Inherit just a great, great situation, very very lucky. 588 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 1: Most quarterbacks to get drafted in the top three or 589 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 1: four picks go to horrendous spots. Say what you want 590 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: about Sam Donald went to the Jets, Say what you 591 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: want I'm not the biggest baker. Mayfield guy went to 592 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 1: the Browns. Now they got good in a couple of years, 593 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 1: but it was not easy. So Jimmy Garoppolo shows up 594 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: every day, does a little thrown and get sent home. 595 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: And I understand early in camp the forty Niners want 596 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 1: to trade them. They don't want to cut him for nothing. 597 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 1: And if I'm Jimmy, I'm cool with for like a 598 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: week in late July, maybe even early August, being a 599 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 1: good soldier. Every day I come in, I eat breakfast, 600 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 1: I do my reapt throwing session, weird rehab. He's cleared 601 00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 1: to practice, so he's ready to go. You've paid me 602 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: twelve million. I'll do you somewhat of a solid. Even 603 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: though this is a business pretty cutthroat, we're on good terms. 604 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 1: I can probably do that no longer for than seven days. 605 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 1: So if by the middle of next week you have 606 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: no trade partner, I gotta draw a line in the sand. 607 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: Like I said about Lamar Lamar Sha, draw the line 608 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 1: in the sand. I'm not practicing until we get a 609 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: contract done. If I'm Jimmy Garoppolo, I say immediately, I'm 610 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 1: demanding my release. I'm not cool with this anymore. I'll 611 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 1: give you some time, but to me, there's like a 612 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: finite date, like middle of next week if you can't 613 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 1: find a trade, and let's face it, what trades are 614 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: there to be had. I guess we can wait to 615 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: see what happens with Deshaun Watson. But the Browns have 616 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:06,959 Speaker 1: said that they're gonna go with Jacobe pre setting out. 617 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 1: You could argue their line. But if I'm Jimmy Garoppolo, 618 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 1: cut me and then I'll just end up going there anyway. 619 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: So I think that Jimmy Garoppolo and Donnie. They're playing 620 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 1: good soldiers right now, as they should. Hundred and twelve 621 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 1: million dollars made made him a ton of money. Now, 622 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: he earned a decent amount of it. Some of it 623 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: he was carried. I mean, he didn't win an NFC 624 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:28,800 Speaker 1: Championship game where he threw eight attempts. I got no 625 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 1: issue with Jimmy, But if I was advising Jimmy and 626 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 1: I was in Jimmy shoes, like I can only play 627 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: good soldier. It's part of life. Sometimes you have to 628 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: do it for so long and then eventually, like you're 629 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: not just gonna hold me hostage all of training camp 630 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: and then cut me whatever September two when the fifty 631 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: three cut man date. And then even if I immediately 632 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 1: latch onto a team, you know, I don't know. The 633 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 1: offense is gonna take me some time. At least if 634 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: I get to pick my destination. We already know the 635 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 1: destinations are limited. I'll learn the playbook and I'm definitely 636 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 1: gonna be the starter by week one, and ultimately that's 637 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 1: my goal. Football players like playing football. He wants to start. 638 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: He's been a starting quarterback now for five or six years. 639 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 1: That that's what he desires, So I I would look 640 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 1: for that thing. I'll be shocked if it doesn't come 641 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: to a head because I have a hard time envisioning 642 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 1: and imagining that Jim. He's gonna be like, yeah, I'll 643 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 1: just do this for a month. Come throw go home, 644 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 1: Come throw go home. When the entire league full of 645 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:28,720 Speaker 1: football players are practicing football, And what have we learned? 646 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 1: Iron sharpens iron. You can't sit out and then be 647 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 1: good at football. Levian Bell set out for a year, 648 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,840 Speaker 1: career ended. Jon Gruden went away for ten years. Was 649 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 1: terrible when he came back, right, Deshaun Watson, Everyone acts 650 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 1: like Deshaun Watson gonna come back and be some elite quarterback. 651 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 1: He hasn't played in an NFL game, and depending on 652 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,240 Speaker 1: how long it gets suspended, potentially for two plus years. 653 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: They got long and really, you know, his season ended 654 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 1: two years ago. He's been out for a long long time. 655 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: So I I do wonder when Donnyee kind of drops 656 00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:02,320 Speaker 1: the hammer of like, we need to get our release, 657 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 1: We need to be set free. That's that's the way 658 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: this thing works, because ultimately you're gonna have to release 659 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 1: us no matter what. If we can't find a trade. 660 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 1: And here's the other thing. If I'm Donnie and Jimmy, 661 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 1: I'd go listen. I'm cool with or at least I 662 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 1: would understand if you're gonna get like the fiftie pick 663 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: for me, you know, like a day to pick a 664 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: late second, early third round pick. We all know that's 665 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,719 Speaker 1: not happening Jimmy Garoppolo on the open market, whether it's 666 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 1: right or wrong, give it. His salaries probably worth like 667 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: a six round pick. Help the The Dallas Cowboys couldn't 668 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:39,720 Speaker 1: barely give away of Marie Cooper because he was making 669 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 1: twenty million dollars and that was during free agency. No 670 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 1: one has any money right now besides like the Browns, 671 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,400 Speaker 1: but no one's paying Jimmy Garoppolo six million dollars to 672 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 1: be their starting quarterback in two thousand two. I've been 673 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:58,840 Speaker 1: thinking about this. You know, I was around the Raiders 674 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: a lot during Paid Manning's Denver tenure, and it was 675 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,399 Speaker 1: awesome to watch those teams. Those are some of my 676 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: Some of my favorite teams to watch over the last 677 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 1: decades were the Peyton Manning Broncos and the LB Seattle Seahawks. 678 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 1: Why because they reminded me of my youth they would 679 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:21,279 Speaker 1: knock the living ship out of you, and obviously they 680 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: were built differently. Seattle slammed the ball with Marshawn Denver, 681 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 1: played great defense, and their their passing game was outrageously good. 682 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 1: I mean, Peyton Manning for like three years was looked 683 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,920 Speaker 1: like Pete Peyton Manning throwing a bunch of touchdowns winning MVPs. 684 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:39,799 Speaker 1: He was awesome. But that last season he fell off 685 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:41,959 Speaker 1: a cliff right, he couldn't even throw. He got benched. 686 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 1: They ended up winning the Super Bowl, but it was 687 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,799 Speaker 1: really because of their defense. C J. Anderson, the running back, 688 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: was actually really good too. I don't ever believe Tom 689 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 1: Brady is gonna do that, right tom one year, Tom 690 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 1: Brady is just not gonna be able to throw. He 691 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 1: hasn't even come remotely close to that. I mean, hell, 692 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 1: if it wasn't for Aaron Rodgers last year, he would 693 00:36:57,719 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 1: have won the m v P him or Mahomes. They 694 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 1: was that good. So Tom Brady arm wise, whether it's 695 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 1: the pliability, the drinking, you know, all the water so 696 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,280 Speaker 1: he can't get some burned, the avocado ice cream, whatever 697 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 1: it is, his arm looks fantastic, so I don't think 698 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,280 Speaker 1: he necessarily is gonna fall off. But let's face it, better, 699 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 1: little weird Tampa this year he quit and then he 700 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 1: came back, and then immediately Bruce Arians retires, slashes fired, 701 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 1: gets a job in the front office. Pretty bizarre. So 702 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 1: say what you want about Bruce Arians, him and Tom 703 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 1: butted heads. I think we all acknowledge that when Bruce 704 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 1: Arians is your head coach and he has just a 705 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,720 Speaker 1: capable quarterback, let alone Tom Brady, his team is legit. 706 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: They won the Super Bowl in two twenty and I 707 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 1: know they lost last year in the second round. They 708 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:45,440 Speaker 1: were hosting the playoff game. So if you're hosting playoff 709 00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:47,399 Speaker 1: games in the second round, like your team is good. 710 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: And now they got Todd Bowls, who I like Todd. 711 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: But to think that like Todd Bowles is just gonna 712 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 1: be some seamless transition I don't necessarily buy now. I 713 00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 1: haven't seen the latest, but their Sinner, who was a 714 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 1: pro bowler last year, really good player, went down. I 715 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 1: think was carted off the field today. Now he might 716 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 1: be fine, he may be out for the season regardless. 717 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 1: It's just kind of one thing after another. Now they 718 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: have something going for them. Their division is horrendous. The 719 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:16,600 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons, I think are going to compete to be 720 00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: the number one, have the number one overall pick. I 721 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 1: think they're gonna be awful. The Carolina Panthers have three quarterbacks. 722 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 1: Anytime you have two quarterbacks, you don't have one quarterback. 723 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 1: And let's face it, their head coach is more likely 724 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,240 Speaker 1: to be at like U C. L A or Iowa 725 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:33,879 Speaker 1: next year. Probably not Iowa because Kirk Ferendz is gonna 726 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 1: coach their dul he's ninetyes, but you know what I mean, 727 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 1: than he is to be at the Carolina Panthers. So 728 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,360 Speaker 1: I'm short in those two franchises, even though Carolina on 729 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: paper isn't terrible, just they don't have a quarterback. At 730 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,799 Speaker 1: least they got three, which is never ideal. And then 731 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: the Saints, who roster not bad Michael Thomas now back. 732 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,799 Speaker 1: They have Dennis Allen, Jamis Winston, who a lot of 733 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 1: Saints fans say that he was five and two. They 734 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 1: lost Sean Payton, and I think around the league, I 735 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: know Pete on the internet don't always agree. Sean Payton's 736 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 1: view is like a top three or four coach, and 737 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:05,839 Speaker 1: when he comes back, he's gonna get like a five year, 738 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 1: hundred million dollar deal from Jerry Jones. Get ready because 739 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:10,400 Speaker 1: that's probably happening. We'll get in the Cowboys here in 740 00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 1: a second. I just got I got an eye on 741 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. That's all I'm saying. And it's 742 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: not because of Tom, because I just don't think we're 743 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 1: gonna see a Tom season that he looks like old 744 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 1: Roethlisburger or old Philip Rivers or old Matt Ryan or 745 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 1: old Peyton Manning. It just doesn't feel like he has 746 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 1: that though. You would say in the history of pro sports, 747 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 1: as Barkley's always said, Charles, that is who might be 748 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,319 Speaker 1: the new live commentator father time is undefeated. Somehow Tom 749 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 1: Brady has avoided that, but it might be for the 750 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 1: first time that surrounding him coach isn't as good. Some 751 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,400 Speaker 1: of the talent guys start getting injured. They signed Julio 752 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:49,439 Speaker 1: Jones a little bit of a desperate move. Mike Tom 753 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 1: might have wanted it. Who knows Julio Jones is shot, 754 00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 1: It's it's over. I just just let's just keep an 755 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 1: eye on Tampa Bay. Uh, and then the last, but 756 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 1: not least the end. I think the NFC East is fascinating. 757 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 1: Not the Giants. They're not They're gonna be another team 758 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 1: that's gonna compete for the number one overall draft pick. 759 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,840 Speaker 1: And not the Washington Commanders, because I think they're not 760 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 1: gonna be very good either, just because Carson Wentz everywhere 761 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,880 Speaker 1: he goes everyone hates him, and uh yeah, I just 762 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 1: I just don't buy into it. It's pretty clear it's 763 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 1: a two horse race. And last year the Cowboys easily 764 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 1: won the division. Right they played the Eagles in one 765 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,239 Speaker 1: meaningful game. I don't count, was it the last week 766 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,239 Speaker 1: or the second last week? When I think it was 767 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,719 Speaker 1: last week the Eagle the Cowboys rest of their guys, 768 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:36,040 Speaker 1: and Eagles killed him. I think the Eagles even played 769 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,879 Speaker 1: with Minshew play that game. But in the one game 770 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:42,760 Speaker 1: that mattered during the regular season when both teams were trying, 771 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 1: Jalen hurt, Scott absolutely punked memory through. I think multiple 772 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 1: pick six is probably his worst game of the season. 773 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 1: And back to what I said about Jalen, I'm still 774 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 1: not necessarily a Jalen believer, but I do respect how 775 00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 1: much he cares, how hard he's working, and just when 776 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 1: you do that and you have some just baseline talent 777 00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 1: you're going to improve. It's why Dak. Uh. You know 778 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 1: a lot of people underestimated Dac, and Dak kind of 779 00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 1: made him all look foolish because his character, his work ethic, 780 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 1: his desire, his drive, his willingness, and his how much 781 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:19,239 Speaker 1: football means to him? Like, I think that's the thing 782 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 1: we all question, like how much does football actually mean 783 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,400 Speaker 1: do you? Kyler? We get you like playing, but doesn't 784 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 1: mean that much to you. No one ever thought like 785 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,920 Speaker 1: how much does football mean to Tom Brady? Everything? It's like, well, 786 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:30,879 Speaker 1: why do you compare him to Tom Brady? Okay, let's 787 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 1: just compare him to other random guys Philip Rivers, uh 788 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, uh Matt Stafford. Just go around the league 789 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 1: like top ten guys over the last five six years, 790 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,560 Speaker 1: football beans every justin Herbert, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson. No 791 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,439 Speaker 1: one ever questions there love of football. The only team 792 00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:50,440 Speaker 1: question Kyler's. So we got Jerry Jones versus the Eagles, 793 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,800 Speaker 1: and let's face both these two teams and it's different. 794 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 1: I don't think the Eagles openly question it. But I 795 00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 1: don't judge you on what you say in the NFL. 796 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: What you say means nothing to me. We think this 797 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 1: guy is really good and he's cut the next day. 798 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:08,840 Speaker 1: We you know, we we respect this opponent really greatly, 799 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:11,439 Speaker 1: and you're playing the urban Meyer Jackson. No you don't, 800 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 1: but I do judge you on your actions in Howie Roseman, 801 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:17,360 Speaker 1: who's one of the best wheelers and dealers in like 802 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 1: the NFL history in terms of making trades, has multiple 803 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,920 Speaker 1: first round picks this upcoming year, so he is poised 804 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:26,839 Speaker 1: to have a lot of AMMO and he has a 805 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:29,400 Speaker 1: ton of other picks if he has to to go 806 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 1: up and get one of the elite guys. And this 807 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,240 Speaker 1: is supposed to be a great quarterback here right Bryce 808 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 1: Young c J. Stroud kid at Kentucky kid at Stanford 809 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 1: quarterbacks all over the place. I think there might be 810 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 1: a guy a Virginia. Uh. I haven't really dove too 811 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: deep beside the top couple guys, but there there are 812 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 1: supposed to be pretty fruitful in terms of quarterback town. 813 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 1: So Howie, if he has to, is ready to move. 814 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,520 Speaker 1: Even though and they did all the right things. They 815 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 1: surrounded Jalen with they win got a J. Brown, they 816 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,480 Speaker 1: drafted last year Davante Smith. They already have a good 817 00:42:58,480 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 1: tight end. They have a good running back, they have 818 00:42:59,920 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 1: an excellent offensive line, they're deep end should be good. 819 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:06,440 Speaker 1: They are pois. But the two most important positions on 820 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 1: your football team or your head coach in your quarterback. 821 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: The Eagles have a question at quarterback. The Cowboys Jerry 822 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:16,320 Speaker 1: Jones had to go on a rant yesterday about how 823 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 1: he had choices to get rid of Mike McCarthy. Anytime 824 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:25,720 Speaker 1: you're doing that on July or July at the opening 825 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 1: of your training camp, it's never a good thing. And 826 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 1: let's face it, whether it's true or not, it feels 827 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: like Mike McCarthy is on the hot seat. And sometimes 828 00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:37,400 Speaker 1: I think hot seat is such a you know we 829 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 1: use we we throw it around so liberally, like it's 830 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 1: just gets I've never heard that used by NFL people 831 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,399 Speaker 1: when I was in an NFL building, but it's real, 832 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 1: like is this guy gonna get fired? Because if the 833 00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 1: Cowboys Jerry Jones is not getting any younger. And I 834 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 1: think we all think, and I know I do, Mike 835 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:58,319 Speaker 1: McCarthy is not very good. He's average at best. I've 836 00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:00,279 Speaker 1: said it over and over. Say what you want about 837 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:04,280 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, he was proven right. He had Mike McCarthy 838 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:09,400 Speaker 1: poised or pegged as a meathead, average coach, and I 839 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: think since we've seen them, like, yeah, I kind of agree. 840 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:17,320 Speaker 1: And the Eagles are lucky. It's never easy to replace 841 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 1: a quarterback or a coach, but the Eagles are gonna 842 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 1: have options because they have a bunch of picks, and 843 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,800 Speaker 1: you never know, maybe this college season turns out Besides 844 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 1: c J. Stroud and Bryce Young, all these other guys suck, 845 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,760 Speaker 1: but let's just assume two more of them are good. 846 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 1: It's never been an easier time to just find random quarterbacks, 847 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:36,239 Speaker 1: Like no one knew who Mac Jones was three years ago, 848 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:37,960 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, Mac Jones starting quarterback on 849 00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 1: a playoff team. Like you can find functional players, they'll 850 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 1: be able to fill the spot if their team is 851 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 1: super loaded, which it is. It is much harder to 852 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 1: find a head coach. And you can say, well, what 853 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:52,439 Speaker 1: if they get Sean Payton, Well what if they don't, 854 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:54,759 Speaker 1: what if Sean Payton kind of likes retirement, what if 855 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:57,440 Speaker 1: he's not feeling it? I think the Cowboys become a 856 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:01,640 Speaker 1: much more desirable job. And listen, I love Jerry Jones, 857 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: but he clearly is not the easiest guy to work 858 00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: for because he's your general manager. He never shuts up, 859 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:09,880 Speaker 1: which I can relate to. But I don't want my 860 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,319 Speaker 1: owner to always be talking. It's not easy when the 861 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:16,320 Speaker 1: owner is your best sound bite and he talks after 862 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:19,720 Speaker 1: every game. It's a tough spot. And maybe Sean Payton 863 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,360 Speaker 1: goes again. I'm not root for Jerry Jones to go anywhere, 864 00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 1: but how many more years is this guy having on life? 865 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 1: Five ten? So I just wonder. I think the Cowboys 866 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:31,360 Speaker 1: become a much more desirable job when Steven Jones is 867 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 1: running the show and as long as Jerry's there, like, 868 00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 1: is Mike McCarthy as good as they're gonna do. So 869 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 1: if Mike McCarthy isn't the head coach, let's face it, 870 00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 1: what the logical next move more than likely is probably 871 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 1: just elevate Dan Quinn. And you can tell me how 872 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:49,400 Speaker 1: impressive dan Quinn was last year's the defensive coordinator. How 873 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,240 Speaker 1: great of a guy he is. I root for bald people. 874 00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 1: It seems like another positive energy guy. We saw dan 875 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 1: Quinn when he was the head coach for the Atlanta Falcons. 876 00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 1: It was ugly, it was pretty bad, and he had 877 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan then Matt Ryan. That version of Matt Ryan's 878 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 1: better than Dak Prescott. So I I think I like 879 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:10,399 Speaker 1: the Eagles slightly and I don't like I don't think 880 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 1: the Eagles are like some twelve and thirteen team because 881 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,880 Speaker 1: or twelve and thirteen win team, because I think Jalen 882 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:18,560 Speaker 1: has a ceiling, though I think he's gonna maximize that ceiling. 883 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 1: I like the Cowboys to come back to Earth a 884 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:22,879 Speaker 1: little bit. Now. I don't view them as a five 885 00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 1: six win team. When I say come back to Earth 886 00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:27,880 Speaker 1: like nine and eight, I think ten wins potentially wins 887 00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:30,719 Speaker 1: this division. And I think the Eagles would probably be 888 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 1: more likely to go to ten and seven. And if 889 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy goes nine and eight, and who knows the 890 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:36,960 Speaker 1: NFC is not that good, nine and eight could get 891 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,320 Speaker 1: either seventh seed. I think nine and eight would be 892 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 1: a fire uble offense because ultimately Mike would show you 893 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 1: kind of who he is. Not that great. We've gotta 894 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:48,200 Speaker 1: give it Aaron, you know, pretty good scout there when 895 00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:50,920 Speaker 1: it comes to evaluating his coach, because he said something 896 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 1: was off. Aaron got away from and became an m 897 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:56,799 Speaker 1: v P and now he loves little of flour who 898 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 1: clearly is a pretty solid coach and who was an 899 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 1: intellectual coach. I think that's what people like. You could 900 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 1: be a guy's guy and a tough guy, but can 901 00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:09,800 Speaker 1: you intellectually connect whether it be football, whether it be life. 902 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:12,839 Speaker 1: Like you just watch Mike Tomlin talk, You're like, God, 903 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:16,400 Speaker 1: that guy connects. You watch Sean McVeigh or Kyle like. 904 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 1: They can do both. They can connect with you as 905 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:22,359 Speaker 1: a person and they can connect with you schematically. I've 906 00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 1: seen it firsthand with Andy Reid, the same thing, Like, 907 00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:26,840 Speaker 1: you gotta be able to do both. And it feels 908 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 1: like Mike is kind of again meet Hetty, like just 909 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 1: not that relatable. And I think the clock is seriously 910 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 1: ticking again. The clock is also ticking on Jalen Hurts. 911 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:39,839 Speaker 1: He has to play well this year or he will 912 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:42,960 Speaker 1: get replaced. But I think because the Eagles have a 913 00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 1: bunch of first round picks, uh, their team is gonna 914 00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 1: be still loaded. I think it's easier to find a 915 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 1: functional replacement than it will be for the Cowboys with 916 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:54,160 Speaker 1: Jerry still around, for them to find a replacement. That's 917 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,280 Speaker 1: why my guest, if McCarthy's out, dan Quinn would probably 918 00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 1: be the next head coach put out a mail bag 919 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 1: tomorrow at John middlecopp is the Instagram fire in those 920 00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 1: d M s. Um, next time you'll we'll talk will 921 00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:09,359 Speaker 1: probably August. Can't wait football seasons here. Let's get fired up. 922 00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 1: Let's get excited for life and share the podcast again. 923 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 1: Subscribed to three and Out, Oh not if you listen 924 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:18,719 Speaker 1: to Collins feedscrid of three and Out, greatly appreciate that 925 00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:42,240 Speaker 1: and we will talk soon.
