I don't know if he's calling 29 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: it quits or if I don't know if he's done, 30 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: if he's going to do his own thing. I'm gonna 31 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,399 Speaker 1: launch a podcast, you know, the thing we all think, 32 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 1: we all do. Speaking of which, this show is available 33 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: in podcast form in the meantime, I want to play 34 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: for you something I saw on TV and I was 35 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: like what And then I heard Cowherd call him out 36 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: without calling him out again. That's probably the art of 37 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: cow Herd is many people he can call out and 38 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: he doesn't name their names, really smarter than what I do. 39 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: Whereas I just name their names. I don't care. It's 40 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: your words. You said it, you own it. If I 41 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: say it, I own it as well, as long as 42 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 1: it's not taken out of context. Right, Okay, So Shadoor 43 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: Sanders is going to start for the Browns in their 44 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,959 Speaker 1: first preseason game as Dan Bayer told you yesterday. That's 45 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 1: because Joe Flacco is old. 46 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 2: You don't want him getting hurt. 47 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: And you know the other two quarterbacks, Dylan Gabriel, who's 48 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 1: drafted ahead of him, he's hurt. You know, both quarterbacks 49 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: in front of him are injured. So he's going to 50 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: get a chance to start. But I want you to 51 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,399 Speaker 1: listen to something that Lewis Ridicks said. Okay, remember Lewis 52 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: Ridick was a scout in the NFL. He's he's been 53 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: on a kind of a jet back to success working 54 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: at ESPN. Here was his take on Shador Sanders. 55 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 4: I'm afraid he's gonna get on the field in preseason 56 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 4: games without a lot of practice reps, and then they're 57 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 4: going to ask him to perform these heroic tasks in 58 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 4: order to prove that he's worthy of being a starter 59 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 4: when he hasn't had enough reps to really get comfortable. 60 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 4: That's the kind of battle he's dealing with right now. 61 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 4: I know I've seen it. We've been in these camps. 62 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 4: We know how that goes. You don't get enough reps, 63 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 4: They play a whole half of a game and then 64 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, coaches are going, why are you 65 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 4: making that mistake. Why aren't you making that check? Well, damn, coach, 66 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,359 Speaker 4: I never was in there in practice. You never even 67 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 4: talked to me during practice, But now you expect me 68 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 4: to know that's what they're gonna expect of him. But 69 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 4: if anyone can get it done, it's this kid, because 70 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 4: he's been trained the right way. But I'm telling you 71 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 4: he is ice skating uphill. 72 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're making it out like the world is out 73 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: to get Shador Sanders. And this is one of the 74 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: most obnoxious things anyone could ever say, when it's about 75 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: themselves or about somebody else who was born on third base. Right, Sure, 76 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: it's difficult to start a preseason game. What's more difficult 77 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: starting your first preseason game or getting thrown in there 78 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter with the fourth stringers trying to 79 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: make I mean, Lewis Riddick like, you can mask it 80 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: all you want. You're obviously rooting for Shaundore Sanders, which 81 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: is okay, okay, But to make it out like Kevin 82 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: Stefanski is gonna do this kid wrong. Have you been 83 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: to Browns camp? Have you talked to Stefanski? Of course 84 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: you haven't. You been on set of ESPN, So not 85 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: saying you don't have sources in the league. You do, 86 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 1: but you're just making assumptions like, oh, this is what 87 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: they're gonna do, and I know what they're gonna do, 88 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: and they're gonna hold them to a higher standard. 89 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,160 Speaker 2: But if anybody can do it, super snor. 90 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:37,799 Speaker 1: Sanders can do it, why would that be the case? 91 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: What would the purpose be? I mean, just like again, 92 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: let's just ask ourselves very honestly. The Browns are in 93 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: quarterback purgatory, right, quarterback purgatory. They had to feel like 94 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: they didn't have a chance to draft, or maybe they 95 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: didn't want a quarterback in this year's draft. That's why 96 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 1: they trade it out of what the number two spot 97 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 1: and traded down right, So maybe they wait for a year. 98 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: But if the idea is well, they're waiting for your 99 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: If Shador Sanders hits, okay, they get the steal of 100 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: the draft. If relevance matters to you, you'll be very relevant. 101 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: But it doesn't matter. They simply want somebody who's good. 102 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: And oh yeah, by the way, he'll be inexpensive. He's 103 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: a fifth round draft pick. He costs you nothing. I mean, 104 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 1: this is Brock Party two point zero, only he was 105 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: evaluated at a higher level than brock perty even though 106 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: brock Purty different but very successful college quarterback who had 107 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 1: some similar struggles late in his college career because he 108 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: was playing at Iowa State. He wasn't playing at Oklahoma. 109 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: But this idea, idea that the world's out to get 110 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 1: shod or Sanders. Oh, I know how this works. They're 111 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: gonna set him up for failure. That's what Lewis Reddick said. 112 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: They're setting him up for failure. They're gonna ask him 113 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: to do things. 114 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 2: How do you know that? Why would they do that? 115 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 2: What would the purpose be of it? 116 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 1: And the idea that, well, this is just so incredibly difficult. 117 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: The only guy that could do is to shoot or standers. 118 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now. Do you think it's more 119 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: difficult and you probably don't have all of the ones 120 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: to play with half the ones and twos? Or to 121 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: come in the second half of the first preseason game 122 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 1: as the four stringer and play with four stringers, especially 123 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: a quarterback who is not the most mobile, holds onto 124 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: the ball too long, and is in a new offense. 125 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,679 Speaker 1: Which one do you think is a more difficult task? 126 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: And the idea that a team that owns the rights 127 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: to a guy who some people had as a first 128 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: round pick on their board falls to the fifth round, 129 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: and they don't want to take advantage of what could 130 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: be an absolute gift in terms of salaries, right because 131 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: remember they're still they still have Deshaun Watson under contract. 132 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson is still under contract with the Cleveland Browns. 133 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: I believe he gets paid the next two years. 134 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 2: Right. 135 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: They reworked his deal in this offseason. He's got two 136 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: He tours Achilles ten in twice, so he's not going 137 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: to play this year. He's he doesn't get paid by 138 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: the team. He gets paid probably by insurance. But it 139 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: does hit the books. If they can have a rookie 140 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: quarterback on a fifth round contract and they can jettison 141 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: you know, Huntley who they just signed h and all 142 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: the other court like they let's just kind of call 143 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: it like it is, they'll be have a chance to 144 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: be the Niners two point er, where you pay your 145 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: quarterback nothing and you load up your roster with dudes 146 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: that I can really play things that NFL teams don't do. 147 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: You know, again, unless Sador has actually like a complete 148 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: ass the whole time, Unless he has made himself into 149 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: a pariah. And if he was made into a pariah, 150 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: they would have already cut him. They would have already 151 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: moved on sign multiple quarterback. Well, why they signed Tyler 152 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: Huntley because you need more guys to throw footballs. You 153 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: can't have one guy throwing two hundred balls every day 154 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: at practice and everybody else's hurt. You heard Dan Bayer 155 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 1: yesterday and say, hey, everybody else's hurt. There's a good 156 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: friend of mine who's been a general manager in the NFL, 157 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: and he used to tell me that when I'd ask 158 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:50,319 Speaker 1: him about these types of things, he was like, honestly, 159 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 1: you're watching football from an entertainment perspective. It doesn't work 160 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: that way. The only thing we care about is if 161 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 1: we can win. How can we win games? And you 162 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: can win games when you have more money to play 163 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: with for the rest of your roster, and if you 164 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: have Shodoor Sanders any really good enough and he go 165 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: in there and not screw it up and just throw 166 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: the ball. We're it's supposed to throw it. If he 167 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: doesn't have it, throw it away. 168 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 2: You know, get. 169 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: Everybody what anything to get. Let's make it super simple 170 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,199 Speaker 1: for you. You're just a rookie. You lineup, you might 171 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 1: hand the ball off nine times and ten. Great if 172 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: you can do that, and we can save a bunch 173 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: of money, we can build up a roster around you. 174 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 1: But he say, I never forget this. I'd say this 175 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 1: with Jason earlier today, like that's entertainment. And yeah, ESPN 176 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: the E does tam for entertainment. But there's no E 177 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: in NFL. There's win games or get a new job. 178 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: So the idea that they would rather make Shador Sanders 179 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:55,199 Speaker 1: look bad by elevating him too soon despite a lack 180 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 1: of practice reps is comical. By the way, the job 181 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: of a backup quarterback is, if you have no reps, 182 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: figure out a way to get it done in the game. 183 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: Just kiss, keep it simple, stupid. But I told you 184 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 1: guys this yesterday and I mean it. Shador Sanders is 185 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: going to be the new Kaepernick if he gets cut 186 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: by the Browns. Every time a quarterback goes down, you'll 187 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: have somebody go. You know, they should sign Shador Sanders. 188 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 5: This is the best of the Done Dot Leap Show 189 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 5: on Fox Sports Radio. 190 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: Why I put you Doug Gottlib Show, Fox Sports Radio, 191 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app I hope you're doing great.

So here's what I want to do. 216 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 1: I tweeted out earlier today with Howard Stern and his show, 217 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: I never gets canceled his shows, he's he didn't get 218 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: re upped. 219 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 2: I who knows. And I would love Jay Stu. 220 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: I would love for you to share what you showed 221 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,319 Speaker 1: me when you knew this was coming two days ago 222 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: and I didn't hear it. 223 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 2: I didn't know. 224 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 1: But I just want to talk about who does what 225 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 1: best because I think that that Stern the bits are 226 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 1: what made him famous, right the bubba buwe and you know, 227 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: a lot of the nudity stuff and it wasn't even 228 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 1: sexual innuendo. Like I thought, the show got a lot 229 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: less clever when he went off of Trust for Radio 230 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: because there were just things you could just say whatever 231 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: you wanted to say. But I thought when he got 232 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: off of Trust Your Radio, he showed incredible chops as 233 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: the interviewer. 234 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 2: And I bring it up because. 235 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: I love the way he takes people through telling their 236 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: story and learns things about them. And what I tweeted 237 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: was that Howard Shurn's the best long form interviewer. I 238 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 1: think Dan Patrick's the best in sports radio. And what 239 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: happens is you have people that are frankly not very 240 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: smart or don't understand the profession. It doesn't mean that 241 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: Dan is the perfect radio host or the best radio host. 242 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 1: I think the best thing he does is interview people. 243 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: He's he listens, He's unbelievably quick. Everybody knows him, so 244 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: there's kind of automack respect given to him. But he's 245 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 1: he's great with how he does it. And when you're 246 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 1: doing it live on radio, it's a skill as opposed 247 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: to you know, when you have you can not take 248 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: breaks for an hour and you're Howard Stern, it's a 249 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 1: different skill. Is there anybody else you guys would throw 250 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 1: in that mix of best interviewers? 251 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 2: Are we talking? 252 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 6: Because there's some television ones that that I think stand out. 253 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 2: A radio audio. Let's just do audio. 254 00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 6: Well, guys, then I'm. 255 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 7: I'm out. I'm out. 256 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: You don't listen to sports radio or or or talk 257 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,559 Speaker 1: radio or satellite radio? 258 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,839 Speaker 6: Uh no, not satelle. I don't have satellite radio. 259 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,439 Speaker 2: Okay, so I don't. I don't either. How are you there? More? Yeah? 260 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 2: Jay Stu? 261 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 1: Do you any other any other and others you would 262 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: like to volunteer their names. 263 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 3: Joe Rogan. Joe Rogan can hold a listener's attention for 264 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 3: a three hour sit down interview. I think that there's 265 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 3: a there's something to the way he interviews that makes 266 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 3: people comfortable enough to give him stuff. There's also a 267 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 3: lot of great like opinion within that. So I told 268 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 3: everybody who I I was in my orbit. I know, 269 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 3: I told you leading up to the election. I said 270 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 3: I would if I were you listen to Trump interview 271 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 3: with Rogan, And automatically people are like, I'll never listened 272 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 3: to anything that Trump does, and I said no. Within 273 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 3: the questions that Joe Rogan asks, he does a great 274 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 3: job of laying out why people are so frustrated with 275 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 3: the left and if you want to be educated as 276 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 3: to why people are frustrated with your side of the aisle. 277 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 3: I think it's a great interview. It's an educational interview, 278 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 3: and I think that's what Joe offers. I think he 279 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 3: gets great answers in conversation and then you also get 280 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 3: a great handful of his opinion within the interviews. I 281 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 3: don't know if anyone does it better. 282 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 8: Sam, Yeah, I had two names that are do TV 283 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 8: or specials. I guess Graham ben Singer in Depth with 284 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 8: Graham ben Singer and David Letterman's new show My Next 285 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 8: Guest needs no introduction. 286 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 1: See I would say this about Ben Singer, Yes, is 287 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: he does?

So not only are you booking the actual 298 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 3: principal interview, you're booking the five most important people that 299 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 3: in their life to spend twenty minutes on the phone 300 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 3: with Graham Benzinger Wow, to get information on the guest. 301 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: And then doesn't he do doesn't he spend like a 302 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: week with the guests? 303 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 3: No lives in their poolhouse. 304 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 6: Because I had spend the summer. 305 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 1: Because my old producer Adam Kluk, he was offered a 306 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 1: job to be his field producer and he said like yeah, 307 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: and he said that, like the whole thing was like yeah, 308 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: it's not just his just coming into an interview, like 309 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,440 Speaker 1: he wants to really know you and spend time. 310 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 2: And he spends I don't know if it was a 311 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 2: week or whatever, but it's like a. 312 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,439 Speaker 1: Substantial amount of time just hanging out with you, and 313 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: then there's a couple of different interviews that they do. 314 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 2: It's not just like one sit down. 315 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 8: That's a good process because yeah, you're getting that access, 316 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 8: you're getting a comfort level at that point once you're 317 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:33,439 Speaker 8: I mean, you know. 318 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. Okay, and I think Brogan, I 319 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 1: haven't listened to a full Rogan. 320 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 2: I'm just be honest. Never. 321 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: I've listened to long clips of it. And I think 322 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: he gets fascinating people. I think really Stern was the 323 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 1: birthplace of these, the kind of long form interviews on 324 00:17:55,520 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: podcasts or audio or whatever. Okay, there's magic to what 325 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: Dan does because when you do it and it's like 326 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: let's let people in behind the curtain. I think he 327 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: does most of his live now at ESPN. He used 328 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,719 Speaker 1: to do him a lot of times after the show, 329 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: and then they would cut it up and so a 330 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:15,919 Speaker 1: thirty minute would become eight minutes, and it was eight 331 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 1: minutes of absolute gold. I think doing it live on 332 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 1: the radio eight twelve minutes is or in person, the 333 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 1: way he does it, it's unbelievable. It's really difficult. I 334 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: do think that Rogan and Sterned, you're still in person 335 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: and you got to take people down a path. I'll 336 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 1: tell you somebody who gets a lot of credit on 337 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: social media and you work for I don't think is 338 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: in that. But it's because I know the process. I 339 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of research done within it is Rome. 340 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 2: Right. 341 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: Rome's whole thing is he he has a producer prep him. 342 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 1: He is a vociferous reader. Again, you tell me if 343 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: I'm wrong, Jay Stuo. And what he does is he 344 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 1: finds his story that he find thinks everybody will be 345 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: fascinated by, and then he walks you to the path 346 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: of that story. And what I've been told was Jim 347 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: Roman doesn't ask a question he doesn't already know the 348 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 1: answer to, right, but it may not everybody else might 349 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: not know that answer, and so when he hears it, 350 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: he makes it sound like it's the first time. It's 351 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,400 Speaker 1: kind of it's a little magical. And how he does 352 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: it I just process wise. I like Dan style, which 353 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,399 Speaker 1: kind of I sort of adopted, which is like I 354 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 1: asked things that I want to know and see where 355 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:33,199 Speaker 1: they take me. But Rome's in any conversation, because you know, 356 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 1: his most famous one was Jim Everett but best okay, 357 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:38,919 Speaker 1: and then. 358 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,919 Speaker 3: By the way, I think you were asking me to 359 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 3: verify that or ye, or I was disagree. All right, 360 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 3: So so Jim does everything you just said. But here's 361 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 3: the genius in any interview. Any good interviewer is really 362 00:19:55,880 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 3: good at listening. But he's best. The best parts of 363 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 3: Jim Rome's interviews are follow ups to answers already given. 364 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 3: So you you are half right. He doesn't ask a 365 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:12,639 Speaker 3: question initially unless he knows the answer, but he's got 366 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 3: to follow based on that answer. And to me, that's 367 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 3: the genius of any interview. If you could prove to 368 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 3: me that you're listening, that goes along way with me, 369 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 3: If I could hear the work that you put into it, 370 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 3: that goes along the way with me. 371 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 2: Personally, I think I wasn't paying attention. 372 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 8: I think you prove you're listening intently, if you're asking 373 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 8: good follow up questions in the moment that maybe you 374 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 8: didn't plan for. I think a lot of these guys 375 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 8: they can relate, They have empathy, and they're calm. There's 376 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 8: a calmness to like a Graham Benzinger, There's a calmness 377 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 8: to a Joe Rogan. There's a calmness to a Howard 378 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 8: Stern and Dan Patrick. And it puts their guest cities too. 379 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: I don't think. I think here's why the Dan, the 380 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 1: Stern and the Rogan things work more than best thing 381 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: your works, I personally, because they're known for something else 382 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 1: and they were on TV when we were kids, right, 383 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 1: I mean, is there anyone alive who watches sports that 384 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: didn't watch Keith and Dan Sports Center that's like thirty 385 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 1: or over. It's a little different now because he's older now, right, 386 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 1: But a lot of his guests are older, and those 387 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: guys they just they there's just a different respect comfort whatever. 388 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: They understand their humor. I think Rome has a little 389 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 1: bit of that. Obviously, once he left ESPN, it got 390 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,119 Speaker 1: a little sort of it changed in terms of people's 391 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: knowledge of him. I think Sports Radio guys. But Joe 392 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: Rogan has been on television. You go back to Fear 393 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: Factor since I was in what was that we were 394 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: in college at the time, Jay s dou, I'm thinking 395 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: right like he's and now obviously he's around UFC, So 396 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: there's a knowledge and a comfort with that. And I 397 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: would say Stern has He's been a big name forever. 398 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: His show has been big forever. And though even though 399 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: he went off trust for radio, I think the one 400 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: thing that probably he had the movie and then he 401 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: was on. 402 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 2: Which one of. 403 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 1: Those variety shows, is he on America's Got Talent? 404 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, America's got talent. And by the way, since you 405 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 3: tease it, I'll pay off the tease. So I have 406 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 3: a text chain with buddies that are in the industry, 407 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 3: and all we do is talk crap about talent. That's 408 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,359 Speaker 3: that's That's the gist of the of the group text. 409 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 3: And then Howard Stern two days ago said out loud 410 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,120 Speaker 3: that he no longer wants Trump voters listening to his show. 411 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 3: I sent a text to the group text saying this 412 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 3: obviously means he's not re upping with serious excel because 413 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 3: that comment goes against every every single thing that we 414 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 3: were brought up to believe in broadcasting, do not alienate 415 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 3: half your listening audience. So then the next day there's 416 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 3: a report that his you is up and he's likely 417 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 3: not re upping with serious exam So when I heard 418 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 3: that two days ago, I don't want Trump voters listening 419 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 3: to my show. I said, yeah, I take that with 420 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 3: a grain of salt. He's obviously coming from a place 421 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 3: of empowerment. He's got hundreds of millions of dollars in 422 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,639 Speaker 3: the bank. If he stopped doing it today, he'd be fine. 423 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 3: Much different than say, like a Pat McAfee's saying that 424 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 3: who's trying to get to the top. 425 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 2: A good point. It's a good point. 426 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 8: I have another name throwut there back in the sports world. 427 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 8: I always thought this was his best strength of his 428 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 8: show was doing the interviews, and not always with sports people, 429 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 8: sometimes the actors. Rich Eisen, I think is a good interviewer. 430 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 8: I think that other parts of his show, maybe you 431 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 8: may some of the criticism or like the critiquing in 432 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 8: his monologues or not, you know, not always super opinion sharpened. Well, 433 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 8: he has he has business interested. You know, he can't 434 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 8: be super critical of certain entities because he might, you know, 435 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 8: work for them. But he is a very good interviewer 436 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 8: and I've always enjoyed his interviews. I always thought his 437 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 8: voice has a calm sounding voice and does a great 438 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 8: job interviewing anybody from sports or outside of sports. 439 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think his desire to do outside of sports 440 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: really is what's pushed him. I think he is really good. 441 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 1: He is really knowledgeable, and he he does this stern 442 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:26,920 Speaker 1: thing where he kind of takes you down the path 443 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 1: of what their what their life was like, and and 444 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 1: those major moments. 445 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 2: That's a good one. That's a good one. 446 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 3: I really wish Bob Costas would do a podcast. I 447 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 3: really would do. He's my favorite of all time. 448 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's unbelievable. 449 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: And and you know who who is actually great as 450 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 1: well was Tarico was really good when he had a show. 451 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 1: Tarrico's issue was that he would never get he would 452 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 1: never tackle anything negative, perceived negative or whatever. Would just 453 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 1: like if somebody's like, yeah, I want to stay away 454 00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: from that, Like all right, we're. 455 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 3: Not asking He he and what's the word not impersonates, 456 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 3: but he to me represents everything vanilla in our business. 457 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 3: He's nothing edgy at all. About Tarico other than his personal. 458 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 2: One talk about thirty years ago. 459 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 8: I think I think that's okay. People have certain lanes 460 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 8: that they stay in. That's just their brand, you know. Yes, 461 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 8: And there's a big enough tent out there. The world 462 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 8: is big enough to have all these people under it. 463 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 3: You know. 464 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,439 Speaker 8: If you want to go to a hard, hinting, hitting interview, 465 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 8: you go to someone else. If you want maybe something 466 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 8: that's more positive on in on the script, it's Tarico. 467 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 7: I think he does a very good job. 468 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,400 Speaker 6: I think one constant that we're hearing in a lot 469 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 6: of these or these these interviewers get amazing guests. And 470 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 6: I also the true like feeling is what about when 471 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 6: the guest isn't something that maybe you know about or 472 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 6: know of. 473 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: Yes, that that's when you're really good. Yes, that's when 474 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: you're really good. 475 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 8: Like you're you're bringing this guests like, you know, presence 476 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 8: and role in the world to the light of the 477 00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 8: people that you know. 478 00:25:58,800 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 7: They're some lot. 479 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 1: No, let's just I'll be honest you So my All 480 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 1: Ball podcast is based upon Howard Stearn's interview of Meghan Trainer. 481 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 2: I told you guys this story on air. 482 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 3: No tell us some story. 483 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 2: That's sarcastm right there. 484 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 1: So I'm driving from Murphy'sboro, Tennessee, to Bolding Green, Kentucky. 485 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 8: I've been there to mur Borough, home of Middle Tennessee 486 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:26,679 Speaker 8: State University. 487 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 1: That's right, which, by the way, is like now almost 488 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 1: part of Nashville.

But I pulled out just 510 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,360 Speaker 1: so so that when it was clear I could I. 511 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 2: Could hear the interview.

So for one night, 568 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 3: for a period of two and a half hours, that 569 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 3: minority of people who thought they were very clever by 570 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 3: saying that the Dodgers trade deadline are people coming off 571 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 3: the IL, they were proven right for two and a 572 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 3: half hours. 573 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 2: Fair enough, fair enough. 574 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: Pretty amazing though, how one guy can one guy can 575 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 1: help and we'll see you. You know, Aaron Judge couldn't 576 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: do it for the Yankees last night, didn't they lose 577 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: no walk off? I think they did, but you mentioned 578 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 1: how much the Yankees need Aaron Judge. Same type of thing, right, 579 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: Sometimes one guy obviously Aaron Judge a little bit more 580 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: than Max Muncy. They can make a difference in stats, 581 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: but sometimes it's just a bad energy. We'll get to 582 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: Adam Kaplan in a moment. It's our Fox Sports Radio 583 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 1: NFL Insider. He also host the Inside the Birds podcast. Uh, 584 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 1: I do think that the Dodgers are the most interesting 585 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 1: thing in baseball right, Like, don't get me wrong, living 586 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: in Wisconsin. The Brewers are super interesting and they've had 587 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: an unbelievable year. But the Dodgers, if they have the 588 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: ability to repeat, and then they were playing so well, 589 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: and yes it was injuries, but then they just started 590 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: to fall apart. Now they've won but two of three, 591 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 1: three of five, you know, they got to finish up 592 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: this home stand for the thing on the Angels that 593 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: it's the Padres series, and then it gets really interesting. 594 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 1: They play the Padres like I think six out of 595 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: nine games, so we'll find out where the Dodgers are 596 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: at that point in time. Stuck Gottlab show. You're on 597 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. Let's welcome in Adam Kaplan. Of course 598 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: he has the Inside the Birds podcast. Plus he's our 599 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio NFL insider, and Adam, let me ask you. 600 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: What are people like yourself who cover the the NFL 601 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: saying about the NFL Network and ESPN merger. 602 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's interesting. So Doug, you may or may not 603 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 7: have known this, but back I think No. Nine or 604 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 7: twenty ten, ESPN and NFL Net in the NFL actually 605 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 7: talked about potential for a merger, but I didn't go far. 606 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,240 Speaker 7: But and there were there were concerns about how much 607 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 7: control the NFL wanted over content and all that, so 608 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 7: it didn't happen. I just remember when I got to 609 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 7: ESPN in twenty thirteen, it's one of the first things 610 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 7: I heard about. And then you always want to could 611 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 7: this ever happen? And it's going to happen, and we're waiting. 612 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 7: Obviously it's got to get approved by government and it 613 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 7: will and then see how this shakes out. But it's 614 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 7: it's very interesting a lot of people are curious about 615 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 7: what this is going to look like. We're certain shows, 616 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 7: shows going to go? What control? What is NFL? What 617 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 7: is ESPN going to do with NFL networks programming? Certain shows? 618 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 7: Are they going to get a rid of shows? What's absorbed? 619 00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 7: What's not that? When you have a merger, that's what happens. 620 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 7: It's like, what do they take? What do they decide 621 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 7: not to keep going? So it's gonna be interesting. 622 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: It's gonna be really really interesting, really interesting. Okay, let's 623 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: get to some of the stuff. What's going on with 624 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys? He had Jerry Jones with the acting like 625 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 1: they had a deal agreed to. He's like, hey, when 626 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 1: about the cowboys? Thirty second conversation, a handshake agreement, But 627 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons still hasn't signed the term sheet. 628 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 2: What are you hearing about? What's actually going on in Dallas? 629 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 7: All right, here's what happened, so and here and I'll 630 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 7: get to where we're at now. So basically, Jerry Jones 631 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 7: and Michael Parsons had some pretty interesting conversations about what 632 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 7: the contract would look like, land guarantees and so forth. 633 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 7: But Parsons put a stop to it because He's like, 634 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 7: wait a minute, my agent's not involved. I haven't agreed 635 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 7: to anything. But they did talk. They talked heavily what 636 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 7: it would look like. But David mulget is his agent, 637 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 7: and Jerry never ran it by Mulligeta, and Parson's put 638 00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 7: a stop to it, so we moved back. We move 639 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 7: this forward a bunch of months, and he's having a 640 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 7: hold in his Parsons and Jerry Jones thinks that they 641 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 7: had a handshake agreement, but Jerry tried to pull a 642 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:15,800 Speaker 7: fast one. It's it's not good. If you're Michael Parsons, 643 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 7: you simply can't play on the contract that you have, 644 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,759 Speaker 7: and nor does he plan to. And the Cowboys they 645 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:27,320 Speaker 7: would like the deal done like Michael would, but Jerry 646 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 7: wants to kind of hold him to what they agreed to. 647 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:32,959 Speaker 7: But Micah, of course doesn't think he agreed to anything. 648 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 7: They just they talked heavily about what it would look like. 649 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,280 Speaker 7: So he's gonna make Parsons's gonna make twenty four million 650 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 7: this season, and then you know, if for some reason 651 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:43,760 Speaker 7: this doesn't get done by the start of the season, 652 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 7: which I still think it will, then you've got next year. 653 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 7: On the fifth year option. But he's so vastly underpaid. 654 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 7: I mean, we got deals now over forty million for 655 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 7: edge rushers, and the guy JJ Watt turns thirty one 656 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 7: this fall and it's going to average forty one million 657 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 7: a season. So yet this has to get done. This 658 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 7: circus is just it's this is a different one though. 659 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 7: I'll tell you this is for as long as I've 660 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,880 Speaker 7: covered this business twenty seven years, I've not seen a 661 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 7: situation like this where owner back tried to backdoor a 662 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 7: contract negotiation without the agent being involved. 663 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 1: Why did he do that? 664 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:19,959 Speaker 7: You already you would have to ask him. I See 665 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 7: what I find interesting is I know that Jerry and 666 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 7: Mike have had an interesting relationship where Mike has respected 667 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 7: Jerry a lot and they've talked a lot. And now 668 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 7: Jerry might say, hey, listen, I just wanted to talk 669 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,360 Speaker 7: to him and see where he was at and escalade 670 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 7: to something. But Jerry never said, hey, let's get your 671 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 7: asient involved, let's get this done right now. It was 672 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 7: He's like, it's kind of like you mentioned the term sheet, Well, 673 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,759 Speaker 7: we've got agreement average per season length and guarantee it 674 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 7: signing that did and then obviously your agent has to 675 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 7: look it over. 676 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 2: But that's it. 677 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:55,839 Speaker 7: That's that's kind of the way that he looked at it. 678 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:57,799 Speaker 7: And that's not the way you have to do it, 679 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 7: because he Parsons clearly says he did not agree to it. 680 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: But again, but what is the why would they grab 681 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 1: him and not run it by his agent? 682 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 2: What is the main. 683 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 7: Well, because because you know, in contracts you can have 684 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 7: a verbal agreement, but it's not you can't enforce it 685 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 7: because it's not written. And that's what you know. Jerry 686 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 7: was talking about that in a way that with the 687 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 7: media this week. He knows that they have to have it, 688 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,799 Speaker 7: they have to have a contract, but he thinks it's 689 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 7: a foregone conclusion that they have a deal. So that 690 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 7: what you're what you have is their loggerheads here and 691 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 7: at some point Jerry Jones has got to talk to 692 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 7: his agent, David Mulligata. And in the way it is, 693 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 7: as you know, in contract negotiation, so you don't lose leverage, 694 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 7: neither side wants to call each other. That's that's the 695 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:49,719 Speaker 7: way I can tell you with NFL contracts, it typically 696 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 7: it's like the agent does not want to call. They 697 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,400 Speaker 7: typically will not call less absolutely necessary. 698 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,360 Speaker 1: Stut Gottlieb show here on Fox supports radio term mc lauren. 699 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 1: What's going on there? 700 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 7: Yeah, so you've this is very odd hold it. He 701 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 7: claims he's got an ankle injury. They definitely want to 702 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 7: do a deal. He wants to get a deal. They're 703 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:12,839 Speaker 7: not close as a couple as forty eight hours ago, 704 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 7: I understanding was that they were not close. He wants 705 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 7: a deal in the neighborhood of DK Metcalf, which is 706 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 7: thirty three million year. Metcalf, by the way, is a 707 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,359 Speaker 7: couple of years younger. Mclaurin's sort of like the heart 708 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 7: and saw the football team. Here's what you have, Doug, 709 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,320 Speaker 7: to sum us up. You've got a GM in Adam Peters, 710 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,800 Speaker 7: who definitely wants to extend mclaurin's contract. But he doesn't 711 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 7: have the same urgency that you would have if you 712 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 7: have if you drafted the player, and he just doesn't 713 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,400 Speaker 7: have that. It's just the way it is. He just 714 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:44,799 Speaker 7: forever reason doesn't see it the way McLaurin does. Now 715 00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:48,400 Speaker 7: they're not. It's not like they offered him twenty million 716 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,840 Speaker 7: and he wants thirty three. You're talking about somewhere around 717 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 7: twenty seven to twenty eight million. They got to get 718 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 7: it up. They got to move up, and plus they 719 00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:01,319 Speaker 7: got to guarantee at least two years and maybe even 720 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 7: part partially for the third. So they're not there yet, 721 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 7: but the season doesn't start till September. But it's not good. 722 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 7: One thing you should know, Doug and why. It's highly 723 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 7: unluckly not impossible, but it's highly unlikely that they would 724 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,719 Speaker 7: want to trade a McLaurin. They have no one to 725 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:19,359 Speaker 7: fill in for him, literally nobody, and Deebo Samuel doesn't 726 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 7: play the same position receiver position, but he plays more 727 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:27,320 Speaker 7: of a slot gadget hand it off slants where mclaurin's 728 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 7: there one deep threat. So yeah, they're not prepared now. 729 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:33,839 Speaker 7: If something escalates, I could tell you that they would 730 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 7: have to get a receiver back in the trade, but again, 731 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:36,799 Speaker 7: they really don't want to trade him. 732 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:38,720 Speaker 2: I want to play for you something. 733 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: This is Lewis Riddick, Yeah, who work with them? Okay, So, 734 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,840 Speaker 1: so Shador Sanders is going to start the first preseason 735 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 1: game for the Browns, right, And it's by default right 736 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,440 Speaker 1: because they got injuries to the three guys that had 737 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 1: him on the depth chart, or at least two of 738 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 1: them at them on the depth chart, with Joe Flacco 739 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:01,240 Speaker 1: being old enough. We know we know Joe FLACKO. Okay, 740 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 1: so this was Lewis Riddick earlier today. 741 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 4: I'm afraid he's gonna get on the field in preseason 742 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,879 Speaker 4: games without a lot of practice reps, and then they're 743 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 4: going to ask him to perform these heroic tasks in 744 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 4: order to prove that he's worthy of being a starter 745 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 4: when he hasn't had enough reps to really get comfortable. 746 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,919 Speaker 4: That's the kind of battle he's dealing with right now. 747 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:22,359 Speaker 4: I know I've seen it. We've been in these camps. 748 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 4: We know how that goes. You don't get enough reps. 749 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 4: They play a whole half of a game, and then 750 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:28,080 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, coaches are going, why are you 751 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 4: making that mistake? Why aren't you making that check? Well, 752 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 4: damn coach, I never was in there in practice. You 753 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,520 Speaker 4: never even talked to me during practice, But now you 754 00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 4: expect me to know. That's what they're gonna expect of him. 755 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 4: But if anyone can get it done, it's this kid, 756 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,080 Speaker 4: because he's been trained the right way. But I'm telling you, 757 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 4: he is ice skating uphill. 758 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,440 Speaker 1: Okay, So he's paying a very difficult picture for Shudor Sanders, 759 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:51,479 Speaker 1: which is reasonable, but he's acting like the Browns are 760 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,719 Speaker 1: intentionally putting him in a situation where he's going to 761 00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 1: fail and holding him to a standard which would be 762 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 1: deemed as unfair. Again, that defies logic to me, because 763 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:06,400 Speaker 1: the Browns they should want a young quarterback to be 764 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,440 Speaker 1: able to play, to do what San Francisco has done 765 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 1: the last four years and play a guy and not 766 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 1: pay him anything. What's the reality on your hearing of 767 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 1: how the Browns feel about shred Or Sanders. 768 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,359 Speaker 7: Well, a couple of things, Doug. The thing that Rick 769 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 7: is talking about, I think is that Sanders has had 770 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:22,720 Speaker 7: very little work with their first team offense. And that's 771 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:26,879 Speaker 7: you know, that's not great because it's a timing thing, 772 00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 7: a rhythm thing. 773 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:30,719 Speaker 2: You would you rather play with the fourth stringers? 774 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 7: Well here's the but no again, I'm just telling you 775 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:34,919 Speaker 7: where I'm just explaining you from a football. 776 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 2: I understand what he said. 777 00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I understand he's been like one day throwing 778 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 1: with with the ones he's had obviously all this lead 779 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 1: up and prep after that, But I get like, what 780 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: what are the other options that they have well they 781 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 1: have Tyler Huntley. 782 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,799 Speaker 7: Yeah, they they signed Tyler Huntley, who just got there, 783 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 7: by the ways, been with them before, and now their 784 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:54,839 Speaker 7: decision not to play Flacco, it's not about evaluating him. 785 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:56,759 Speaker 7: They know what they have in Flacco. He brought them 786 00:40:56,760 --> 00:41:00,359 Speaker 7: to the playoffs two years ago. You could say, look why, 787 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:03,080 Speaker 7: One might say why why isn't Flack would just play 788 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:06,240 Speaker 7: the first half and Sanders closed the second half, played 789 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 7: the second if that, that, to me would been the 790 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,320 Speaker 7: smart thing. But they want Sanders to start here. It's 791 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 7: it's not I it's not ideal. I would agree with 792 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:17,879 Speaker 7: Lewis on that. It's not a great thing. Now here's 793 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 7: the thing. 794 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: Much I'm just I'm just telling you right now. I 795 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: think it's it's it makes no sense. 796 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 7: I agree with you. 797 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 2: But let me play player perspective. 798 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 1: From my from my senses, I would so much rather 799 00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:32,720 Speaker 1: play with better players around me, better offensive lineman, better 800 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 1: skill position players, better guys. I can play with them less. 801 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:38,719 Speaker 1: And they're not gonna give him some ornate you know, 802 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,359 Speaker 1: game plan right like, nor are they going to see 803 00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 1: exotic blitz us from the defense. 804 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 2: It's meat and potatoes. 805 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 1: Nobody's showing anything. I would rather play with the good 806 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,520 Speaker 1: players than play with the guys that are likely to 807 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:53,480 Speaker 1: be on no rosters or some other roster. 808 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 7: Although I would tell you though, when you when you're 809 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 7: a third or four shiing quarterback, which you generally has been, 810 00:41:57,960 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 7: you've worked a lot with those backups. 811 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:04,160 Speaker 1: So again I understand when you've worked with more, others 812 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 1: are just clearly better. I'd what I I'm just I 813 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,359 Speaker 1: would much rather play with the starters. That's way better 814 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 1: to me. 815 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:13,319 Speaker 7: Yeah, I hear you on that. I honestly again to 816 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,839 Speaker 7: move us alonger, I would have started Flacco, but Stefanski, 817 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,320 Speaker 7: Kevin Stefanski, who's their play caller, decided differently. 818 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,440 Speaker 1: You mentioned your desires, like I would have started Flacco. 819 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 1: There are a lot of teams that are playing their starters. 820 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 7: In I know it's changed. 821 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 2: Do you know why? 822 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 1: Like we went through like A we went through what A? 823 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 1: When did McVeigh become the head coach of the Rams? 824 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 1: This is like seventeen years. 825 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 7: Ago, seventeen, maybe twenty sixteen to twenty seventeen. 826 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: Okay, so wow, it's a long tap. So almost the 827 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 1: last decade, Sean McVay has greatly influenced most of the 828 00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 1: league most league. It was like, yeah, we'll play him 829 00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:46,320 Speaker 1: a little bit, and he was like, we're not playing 830 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 1: him now of a sudden, you know, the pendulum swings. 831 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:50,719 Speaker 2: Why all right? 832 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:52,520 Speaker 7: So the ways explaining to me is this because I 833 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 7: asked the same question. What there are two things that 834 00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 7: have happened. First of all, we went from four to 835 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:02,279 Speaker 7: three preseason games, right that that changed, And the fourth 836 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,959 Speaker 7: preseason game is when nobody would play. Third, the third 837 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:08,239 Speaker 7: preseason game was the dress rehearsal. Well, the starters would 838 00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 7: play into the second half. They don't do that anymore. 839 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 7: In fact, what you're seeing is, okay, the starters will 840 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 7: come a lot some some teams will play their starters 841 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:20,560 Speaker 7: if they've got to join practice next week. They use 842 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:24,799 Speaker 7: to joint practice as the as the work for the week, 843 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 7: and they don't play in the preseason game. That's been 844 00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:29,279 Speaker 7: because the the joint practices have been the big thing 845 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:31,000 Speaker 7: is you know in the National Football League for last 846 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 7: oh four or five years in big time, not every 847 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 7: team all majority of the NFL teams do it. Sure, 848 00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:39,000 Speaker 7: but it's what what i'd heard is it's one it's 849 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:42,239 Speaker 7: one last one fewer and the setups a little bit 850 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,960 Speaker 7: different with with one less game to evaluate, you want 851 00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:46,839 Speaker 7: to get your starters in a little bit more. Now 852 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 7: McVeigh doesn't seem to care. He just he's like, we're 853 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:51,879 Speaker 7: not getting anyone hurt. You know. It's funny Andy Reid 854 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 7: when he was in Philly, he he just he said 855 00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:57,399 Speaker 7: to me one year because I'm like, coach, why didn't 856 00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,400 Speaker 7: you play your starters? Just like my job is to 857 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:01,439 Speaker 7: get my guys to the to the regular season healthy 858 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 7: as possible. But he's changed that with Kansas City, he's 859 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 7: done sort of a one to eighty. 860 00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: You mentioned Philadelphia. Obviously this is another another super Bowl 861 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,799 Speaker 1: and another departure of their offensive coordinator. How does their 862 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:15,400 Speaker 1: offense look so far in the preseason. 863 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's been uneven. Look, it's it's hard 864 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 7: to go against Vic Fangio's defense, the Egles defense coordinator. Now, 865 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 7: they don't blitz, but you know, the number one defense 866 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 7: last season. And they've had some injuries. A. J. Brown's 867 00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:32,800 Speaker 7: missed practical with the hamstring injury. DeVante Smith missed overweek 868 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,360 Speaker 7: with a back injury, so that that's definitely been a 869 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 7: problem for getting their timing down. But the last three 870 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:40,719 Speaker 7: days of practice this week they've done much better. And 871 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 7: you know, the big issue for them though, and I 872 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 7: spoke about their defense, is they're gonna have a minimum 873 00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 7: of five new starters on defense. They're having a That's 874 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:49,240 Speaker 7: why they made this trade this week with the Raiders 875 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:53,839 Speaker 7: to to get a corner. They're struggling a little bit 876 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,200 Speaker 7: opposite Quinnon Mitche who's her first round pick last season. Yeah, 877 00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 7: Jacorey and Bennett is the corner. It's gonna wear a number. 878 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:01,440 Speaker 7: But he not came out from Raiders, so by the way, 879 00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:05,560 Speaker 7: Eagles really liked Uh. He unfortunately had laboram surgery, shoulder 880 00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 7: labor surgery. So he's fine now he's been in practice. 881 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 7: But that's the situation to watch the left cornerback position 882 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,359 Speaker 7: for the Eagles, it's it's it's not not looking good 883 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:16,880 Speaker 7: right now. That which is why they may just they 884 00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:18,000 Speaker 7: just made this trade this week. 885 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:20,839 Speaker 1: All right, NFL NFC North is really interesting. Let's start 886 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 1: in Minnesota. What are you hearing Jordan Addison suspended first 887 00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:26,880 Speaker 1: three games. That doesn't help the wide receiving core. And 888 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:31,759 Speaker 1: you got essentially a rookie quarterback in JJ McCarthy. You know, look, 889 00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 1: it's hard to tell. We watched little clips, but the 890 00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,719 Speaker 1: little clips don't look great. What are you hearing in 891 00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:37,400 Speaker 1: terms of returns on JJ McCarthy. 892 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:39,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, so so I'm gonna go back to last summer. 893 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 7: So when he came in, you know, he's a first 894 00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:43,319 Speaker 7: round pick and a lot of teams I talked to fact, 895 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 7: I know team's had a their round great on him. 896 00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,320 Speaker 7: He had issues with mechanics, footwork, and boy, Kevin O'Connell 897 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 7: made great strides with him. He got hurt in that 898 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 7: first preseason game against the Raiders, and he looked fantastic. 899 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:56,879 Speaker 7: I mean, he looked really good. And then he tours 900 00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:01,400 Speaker 7: miniscus sometime in that game, and and his off season. 901 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:04,960 Speaker 7: Remember he didn't get clear till till June. It's been 902 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,279 Speaker 7: uneven you know you mentioned Addison. I mean, he's a 903 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 7: lot of practice. He just can't. He can't play for 904 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:14,040 Speaker 7: three weeks, first three games. But they're gonna be okay. 905 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 7: They're gonna be okay. Tej Hocketts dealing with something that 906 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:17,960 Speaker 7: their start tight end, which is why they just signed 907 00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,359 Speaker 7: a tight end this week. Now, one thing you should 908 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,000 Speaker 7: know is they're gonna have three new starters on their 909 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 7: offensive line and then Christian Darrisol missed all last season 910 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 7: with an ac ell injury, so it's a little bit 911 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 7: of work in progress there with. 912 00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:31,280 Speaker 2: Minnesota Chicago Bears. 913 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:34,399 Speaker 1: Caleb Williams, Yeah, Ken, you a scrimmage doesn't look great. 914 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,239 Speaker 1: There's a lot of chattery. Doesn't look great. But what 915 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: are you hearing about the reality of how the second 916 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:40,480 Speaker 1: year of quarterbacks plan. 917 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's been. It's look, it's been very challenging for 918 00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 7: Ben Johnson to get cable ones to play with discipline, 919 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 7: it's been. He's certainly been uneven. It's gonna take some time. 920 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:53,839 Speaker 7: Ben Johnson coaches real hard. He did a great job 921 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:56,400 Speaker 7: with Jared Goff, who was a reclamation project after he 922 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 7: came up from the Rams. This is gonna take more. 923 00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:03,080 Speaker 7: Williams mechanics are aren't great. He's got great talent, loose 924 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:06,320 Speaker 7: thrower man, he's got a great arm. They're super loaded 925 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:10,319 Speaker 7: with offensive talent, skill positions. They too much of Minnesota. 926 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,200 Speaker 7: They have three new starters on the tier of their 927 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 7: offensive line. But they're super excited about the upside of 928 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 7: this team. And Ben Jonson will say this, he coaches 929 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 7: hard and he's brought a ton of discipline in They're 930 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 7: building and the players so far of taken to it 931 00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:26,880 Speaker 7: because there's going to be accountabilding that building, because there 932 00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:27,720 Speaker 7: was not last season. 933 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:29,759 Speaker 2: You're the best man. 934 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:33,040 Speaker 1: Love working with you, love having you on, and love 935 00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:35,359 Speaker 1: your your overall knowledge of everything that's going on. 936 00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 2: It's so great.
