Speaker 3: a flag football game coming up on Sunday, But this

12
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 3: is the first time we don't have NFL football since

13
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 3: what early September, since around Labor Day.

14
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 1: And I mean we're watching pregames.

15
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 3: I'm not preseason going. Yeah, you're right, what I call it.

16
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:49,520
Speaker 3: There's a void here, there's a void.

17
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:51,319
Speaker 1: Let's go. It's gonna be fun. We got Pro Bowl

18
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: stuff coming up. We're gonna talk to you about We're

19
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 1: gonna talk to Super Bowl obviously, we're talking to Tyler Dragons, Yeah,

20
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 1: who covers the NFL and other things for USA Today.

21
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: Love Tyler's work. I think you will too. Maytay. I

22
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: like this because we've done this. You go back in

23
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: your log. We have played this game on the last

24
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: word for many years. Yes we have. It may be seven,

25
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: I mean it could be eight years old. Factor Fiction's

26
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: coming at you right before the Super Bowl. Okay, all right,

27
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 1: you ready for it. Here's how it is, factor fiction.

28
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna discuss some bold statements with the voice of

29
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 1: the Colts, and you're gonna say, hey, are these fact

30
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 1: or are these fiction? A nice golden chalice or is

31
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 1: this horse craft? That's what we should have called it.

32
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:29,839
Speaker 1: You're ready.

33
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 3: Roll describes this show perfectly.

34
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: Let's go. Colts have thirteen unrestricted free agents coming up

35
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: in March. Okay, that's a bold fact right there. I

36
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 1: mean that is something you're looking at, unrestricted free agents

37
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: thirteen coming up in March. But the player they should

38
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: prioritize bringing back the most is Michael Pittman junior.

39
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 3: May ta factor fiction. That's probably fact. We talked about

40
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 3: it last week on your free agent list. You've got

41
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 3: some heavy hitters, right, You've got your backup quarterback.

42
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. Probably in fact, don't go together, I'm saying fast, Okay,

43
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 1: fact probably fat Factor fiction you're going with fact? Why?

44
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 3: I mean you hear it all the time, the debate

45
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,239
Speaker 3: over Michael Pittman Junior. Is he a number one wide receiver?

46
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 3: Is he a deep threat? All I know is he's

47
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 3: a damn good football player. He's a really good receiver.

48
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 3: It would be great for this team to have him.

49
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,399
Speaker 3: Where would this offense be? Where would it have been

50
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 3: last year without Michael Pittman Junior and is one hundred

51
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 3: and nine catches and he does everything you want. He blocks,

52
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 3: he catches, he's tough, he's great in the running game.

53
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 3: So when it comes to the success of this offense

54
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 3: next year with a young quarterback, I think you need

55
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 3: as many complimentary pieces as possible. Chris Ballard said it.

56
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 3: Wide receiver contracts are kind of like gas prices, Right,

57
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 3: If the price of gas is four dollars, what are

58
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 3: you gonna do? Right, that's just what you gotta do.

59
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 3: You gotta pay it. Obviously, that's an oversimplification of things

60
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 3: when it comes to Michael Pittman Junior in free agency,

61
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 3: but prioritizing him makes a lot of sense if you

62
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 3: can find that reasonable sweet spot in free agency.

63
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: Okay, reasonable sweets aside, I'm just saying you lose Michael

64
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: Pittman Junior in this wide receiver room, You're talking you're

65
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: relying heavy in free agency or relying heavy in the

66
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 1: draft for that position. Big pay raise this year, hopefully

67
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: right here in Indianapolis. And obviously that he fits so

68
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: well with this offense and with Anthony Richardson, that's a fact.

69
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: Let's move on. The Houston Texans may tay they are

70
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:24,359
Speaker 1: here to stay and will be front runners to win

71
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: this AFC South in twenty twenty four. Is that factor fiction?

72
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna split it up.

73
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 3: I think they're here to stay, but in terms of

74
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 3: them being front runners, I think it's fiction. I'm saying

75
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 3: the entire division are front runners next year. And yes

76
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 3: they are the defending champs, but they won the division

77
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,839
Speaker 3: by one game. They won the division by one game

78
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 3: over the Colts and the Jaguar, So the arrow is

79
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 3: no doubt pointing up for them with CJ. Stroud and

80
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 3: Tamiko Ryans. And this week we find out that their

81
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 3: offensive coordinator, Bobby Slowak, who interviewed for several head coaching jobs,

82
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 3: he's coming back. He's coming back to remain the offensive coordinator,

83
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 3: which is great news for them, but the arrow is

84
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 3: also pointing up for the Colts as well, with Shane

85
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 3: Steik and Anthony Richardson. I fully expect the Jaguars to rebound,

86
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 3: and who knows what the Titans are going to be

87
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 3: under Brian Callahan. So my point is who would have

88
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 3: thought the Texans last year would win the division with

89
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 3: a rookie quarterback and so many unknowns. A lot of

90
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 3: people doubted them during the draft process.

91
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:22,679
Speaker 1: I mean CJ.

92
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 3: Stroud was kind of a big question mark going into

93
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 3: his rookie campaign, and he certainly kind of squelched all

94
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 3: of that doubt. But you know, the Textans start of

95
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 3: the year zero and two and they rebounded nicely and

96
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 3: you have to give them a lot of credit, But

97
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 3: you know, who would have saw the slide from the

98
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 3: Jaguars at the end of the season. This is why

99
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 3: the NFL is the best reality TV going because of

100
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 3: stories like this. So, no, I don't think that there

101
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 3: is a front runner in the division. To be honest

102
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 3: with you. We still have free agency, we still have

103
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 3: the draft and a lot of personnel acquisition periods coming up,

104
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 3: and even then, I don't think we're gonna know.

105
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: Matt what we're talking about now between Richardson Shroud, between

106
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: will Levis obviously what Lawrence is gonna do. Now, They're

107
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 1: loaded at the quarterback position all across the age South,

108
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: and you want to implement that for the next ten years.

109
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: Knock on wood. Hopefully that's the case. Yeah.

110
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 3: So the division with maybe the most instability in short

111
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 3: order two years has a lot of stability and a

112
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 3: lot of parody, and there's going to be some major

113
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 3: battles really for the next eight to nine years. As

114
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 3: long as these quarterbacks stay as the franchise qbs and

115
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 3: stay healthy.

116
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 1: Of him, Anthony Richardson will be back twenty twenty four. Mate.

117
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 1: I know you're looking forward to that, so are you

118
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: Colts fans. Rock Purdy one of the most clutch quarterbacks

119
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Fact or fiction, and you better go

120
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 1: with this one. I'm going fast, absolutely. The guy's already

121
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 1: won four playoffs. Nothing wrong in this career, zero nothing

122
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: in his career.

123
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 3: I mean, he's been in the NFC Title Game two

124
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 3: years in a row. Now, he's in a Super Bowl,

125
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 3: set a franchise record for passing yards this season. His

126
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 3: passer rating this year at one thirteen, was the best

127
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 3: in the NFL. And I know he's got great I mean,

128
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 3: here's the knock on him. He's always on too good

129
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,559
Speaker 3: of a team. He's got a great coach, The play

130
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 3: caller is e Laitue, great weapons. Listen, if it was

131
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 3: that anybody could step in and do it.

132
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: Hey, how about that?

133
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,799
Speaker 3: I mean, look at the last two games. Last seven

134
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 3: minutes of the Packers game right down four goes six

135
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,720
Speaker 3: for seven passing for forty nine yards, and the second

136
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,679
Speaker 3: half against the Lions down seventeen forty nine. Ers score

137
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 3: twenty four straight, thirteen out of sixteen passing through a touchdown,

138
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 3: ran four times for about fifty yards. I mean, he's

139
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 3: twenty one and five as a starting quarterback, Jeffrey, what

140
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 3: else do you want?

141
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 1: I missed her? Irrelevant to say that again, twenty one

142
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 1: and five as a starter. Absolute people are saying, hey,

143
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: this is a game manager. Hey, this is a guy

144
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 1: that's putting a good position with a great offensive mind.

145
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,719
Speaker 3: And every game the quarterback is demanded to make four

146
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 3: or five game winning throws, game winning plays, and he

147
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 3: steps up and does that.

148
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: Go ahead, win yourself one. See what they say about

149
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: you after that? Pretty well done? All right? How about

150
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: this on factor fiction. Most of America they're over the Chiefs.

151
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: I don't know. Wait a minute, is that football wise

152
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 1: or is that generally off the field with some on

153
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: the field stuff. That's will you tell me?

154
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 3: It's the kind of have this orbit right now where

155
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 3: they're like picking up things on their way, you know,

156
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,679
Speaker 3: around the sun and their revolution here, I would probably

157
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 3: say fact. I mean, listen, I appreciate greatness, right, I

158
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 3: appreciate a dynasty, I get it. But everybody was kind

159
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 3: of over the Patriots, right they made their run. I mean,

160
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 3: what was it, eight straight AFC Championship Game appearances. The

161
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 3: Chiefs have done that six straight years. They're in the

162
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 3: Super Bowl now for the third time in the last

163
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 3: four years. But stop bagging on Travis Kelsey, Stop bagging

164
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 3: on Taylor Swift.

165
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: Who cares? Just let people be happy. They seem to

166
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: be happy.

167
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 3: But I think a lot of people were kind of

168
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 3: alarmed at how big of sore losers they were when

169
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 3: they hit some rough patches, like the season. That was

170
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 3: kind of eye opening for me. When adversity struck, they

171
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 3: didn't necessarily lose with grace, if you know what I'm saying.

172
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 3: I think that's where some people are with the Chiefs.

173
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: What about you. Well, Mahomes took a little bit of

174
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: a backstep, but that is pure greatness. It's fun for

175
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: me watching greatness.

176
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 2: That is it.

177
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: The likes of Brady and Mahomes. Yeah, I finally thrown

178
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: them in that case conversation.

179
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 3: The crazy thing about Mahomes is he's getting better, getting

180
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 3: better in terms of his savviness, his football IQ, which

181
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 3: is on full display during this playoff run because he's

182
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 3: not putting up marvelous numbers. But more important than anything,

183
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 3: when you watch the Chiefs the last couple of games,

184
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 3: he's not making mistakes and that's what playoff games come

185
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 3: down to.

186
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: I got him winning another one mayte, But we'll talk

187
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: about that next week. Let's move on. How about this

188
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: one coach Pro Bowlers, Let's talk about it. It's not fact,

189
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: it's not fiction. They are there. I'm talking about the

190
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: Forrest Buckner Gardner Minshew. Ryan Kelly is there and I

191
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,079
Speaker 1: did see some of it last night on the Pro

192
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,319
Speaker 1: Bowl Games. Ryan Kelly went bubkiss on the long snap

193
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,719
Speaker 1: trying to win points. I mean didn't hit He hit

194
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 1: the board, which is good, but he didn't hit the

195
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 1: he didn't put the football in the hole is what

196
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. So Ryan, Oh, a great job out there.

197
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 1: I know they got a tug of war and stuff

198
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: coming up, and the game will be out there on Sunday,

199
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: coach By, you know the Manning brothers on both sides

200
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: of the ball. That's gonna be a quittin. Nelson obviously

201
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: is another one that'll be there. So you watching any

202
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,559
Speaker 1: of that, Yeah, I think it's fun. I watched last night.

203
00:08:58,600 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 1: It's good.

204
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,839
Speaker 3: I mean, the game certainly ran its course for a

205
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 3: variety of reasons we don't need to get into. We're

206
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 3: all aware of those. But I think this is a

207
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 3: nice alternative. They've got their helmets off, right, it's just them.

208
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 3: You can see their face, you can see their personalities.

209
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 3: I do think it's a nice alternative, and I think

210
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 3: it's only going to continue to grow in terms of popularity.

211
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: The quarterback dropouts there were plenty. Gardner Minshew joined C J.

212
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: Stroud and two at Taga Bayoloa from the AFC, Jalen Hurts,

213
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: Gino Smith and Baker Mayfield from the NFC. Only Taga

214
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,199
Speaker 1: Bayaloa remains the only quarterback who was initially named to

215
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowlers. That's still playing Matthew Stafford, YadA, YadA,

216
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: those guys obviously Brock Perdy and Patrick Mahomes not playing.

217
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson either. He was out, So well done Gardner, Minshew.

218
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: Hopefully you guys will have some fun Tyler dragonfolks from

Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I saw I listen to this once

233
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 1: in a while, you know, And I'm in at seventies,

234
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: easy breezy, sort of the yacht rock review. Moody right there,

235
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk some football. One of the greatest

236
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: names as a journalist I've ever run across. I'm gonna

237
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: say that right out of the great love It Tyler Dragon,

238
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 1: NFL insider from USA. How you doing today, Tyler?

239
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 4: Hey, I get that a lot. I just hope I

240
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 4: live up to the YouTube.

241
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: I can tell already you do. Let's have some fun here. Obviously,

242
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: some coaching changes around the NFL. You're out at Jim

243
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: Harbaugh's introductory press conference overall, with no Mike Rabol, no

244
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick around. Who got it right this year? Who

245
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 1: got it wrong? Maybe not so much wrong, but who

246
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: really did get it right this year? In your eyes?

247
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: As far as the new hires go, Yeah, so.

248
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 4: I'll stay in the West Coast obviously. Jim Harball, I

249
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 4: think that is definitely the right hire for the LA Chargers.

250
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,199
Speaker 4: They need a guy that can change the culture and

251
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 4: create a winning franchise for a Chargers team that has

252
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 4: never hoisted a Lombardi Trophy. And Jim Harball, He's won

253
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 4: every single stop in his coaching career, so I think

254
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 4: he's an excellent addition for the Chargers. And then I

255
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 4: like Antonio Pierce with the Las Vegas Raiders as well.

256
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 4: He went five and four as an interim head coach

257
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 4: with the Raiders kind of right at the ship during

258
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 4: a tumultuous season in Las Vegas, and he really got

259
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 4: the endorsement from their franchise, Cornerstone Pieces and talking about

260
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 4: a player like Max Crosby, talking about Davonte Adams. So

261
00:11:56,360 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 4: when you turn around what was a rocket season in

262
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 4: Las Vegas, and you have the respect and admiration of

263
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 4: Cornerstone Pieces and your two best players, and you really

264
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 4: have proven that you are the right man for the job.

265
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 4: So I think the Raiders got it right in Antonio

266
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 4: Pierce as well.

267
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: All right, that's d Tyler Dragon on Twitter x again

268
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 1: at d Tyler Dragon that covers the NFL for USA today.

269
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 1: Shane Stikeen. Let's say, let's stay close to home here.

270
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,719
Speaker 1: What's the overall national view of what Shane Stiken did

271
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 1: in year one? Obviously with a lot of rolling quarterbacks

272
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: and head coaches in the last couple of years here

273
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 1: studying the ship. What do you guys like about what

274
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: Shane Styken brings to this Colts program.

275
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, he righted the ship as well. You know,

276
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 4: it was kind of a quarterback carousel when Anthony Richardson

277
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 4: went down, but the Colts were still in the playoff time,

278
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 4: second in the AFC South, and I like how he

279
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,319
Speaker 4: turned things around in Indianapolis. And I really do think

280
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 4: the sky's the limit or a young Colts team with

281
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 4: a lot of salary cap room this coming season where

282
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 4: they can try to build out their roster and get

283
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 4: some more players in there for Anthony Richardson and kind

284
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 4: of build out that defense as well. But nine to

285
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 4: eight in the AFC South and almost a playoff Berth,

286
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 4: I really liked what they did in twenty twenty three.

287
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 3: That's Tyler Dragon with u NFL Insider from USA Today

288
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 3: along with Jeffrey Gorman, I Matt Taylor. This is the

289
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 3: last word on ninety three to five and one oh

290
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 3: seven five the Fan and looking ahead a little bit, Tyler,

291
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 3: the Chiefs, they just keep getting it done right. They've

292
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 3: had their speed bumps in the middle of the season.

293
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 3: Losses to the Bills, a lost to the Raiders on

294
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 3: Christmas Day, those kind of stand out. But yet here

295
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 3: they are again in the Super Bowl. What do you

296
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 3: attribute their turnaround to, if you want to call it

297
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 3: that in terms of them getting their way back into

298
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 3: the Super Bowl with Patrick Mahomes.

299
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 4: Yet again, you said it, Patrick Mahomes, he's the best

300
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,079
Speaker 4: player in football. In my opinion, He's probably going to

301
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 4: go down as the best quarterback ever to play. He's

302
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 4: just that good. And the team really rallies behind him.

303
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 4: In the middle of the season. Beginning season, they had

304
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 4: some drops issues. Receivers weren't creating separation, they weren't catching passes.

305
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 4: But Patrick Mahomes would go up in front of the

306
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 4: podium every Sunday at Sunday wherever their game was and

307
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 4: give his receivers a voter confidence that he's going to

308
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 4: keep on passing them, the football keep on going to them.

309
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 4: And what do you know, the last couple of games

310
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 4: there went on the road and mvs is catching balls

311
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 4: and she Rice is still one of the premier rookies

312
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 4: in the National Football League. So the receivers now they're

313
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 4: playing better, they're creating a little bit more separation, and

314
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 4: they're not having the drops issues. And now you see

315
00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 4: the Chiefs being a team that could legit mentley win

316
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl against the forty nine ers because he

317
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 4: stayed by his receivers and believed in them. Even that

318
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 4: offensive line that was having problems, particularly the two tackles

319
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 4: with penalties and holdings and false starts and whatnot. So

320
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 4: when you have a leader that believes in your team

321
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 4: and believes in the players and doesn't yell at you

322
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 4: and doesn't get on you for making mistakes at the

323
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 4: mistakes and encouraging you, then eventually you're going to get

324
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 4: better and you're going to start wanting to play for

325
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 4: a quarterback and a head coach like Andy Reid. And

326
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 4: then their defense as well. Their defense has been a

327
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 4: top five defense all year and led by Chris Jones,

328
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 4: and they've really had a solid, solid attack held the

329
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 4: Ravens to ten points. Premiere Ravens offense with Lamar Jackson's

330
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 4: gonna win the MVP. So I look at the Chiefs

331
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 4: as a complete football team and they don't need their

332
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 4: offense to explode, but they just need plays here and there.

333
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 4: And you have one of the best players in all

334
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 4: the football ever in Patrick Mahomes to do that. Especially,

335
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 4: I think they're going to do well in the Super

336
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 4: Bowl because they have that experience factor as well.

337
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, meanwhile, Tyler on the other side of the ball,

338
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 3: the other quarterback, Rock Purty, we were talking about him

339
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 3: earlier in the show, and he seems to take so

340
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 3: much junk for no reason. Tyler, where do you stand

341
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 3: on the party debate in terms of the respect that

342
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 3: he does and does not get?

343
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 4: So yeah, I hear that game manager debate all the

344
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 4: time with Rock Purty. And don't get me wrong, the

345
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 4: forty nine Ers have an embarrassment of riches on the

346
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 4: offensive side of the football. When he talked about a

347
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 4: Christian McCaffery at debo, Samuel Brandon Naive, George Kittle and

348
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 4: Trent Williams and on the offensive line. But Rock Purty

349
00:16:56,120 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 4: still has to give those players the football. And the

350
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 4: thing that I like about brock Purty is he avoids

351
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 4: huge turnovers and constlate mistakes. He's like a point guard

352
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 4: out there, and that's why he was an a front

353
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 4: runner to get the MVP Trophy before Lamar Jackson kind

354
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 4: of ran away with things. And yes, I mean it.

355
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 4: Does he have the biggest arm, No, Does he have

356
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:28,399
Speaker 4: the most athleticism, No, but he gets the job done

357
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 4: as the point guard of the forty nine ers offense.

358
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:35,439
Speaker 4: Now will he win the sexiest quarterback competition? Though? Is

359
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 4: he the fifth best player on the team? Top five.

360
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,719
Speaker 4: Probably not, but he doesn't have to be that. There

361
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 4: are a lot of times a quarterback isn't the best

362
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 4: player on the team or a top five player on

363
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 4: the team, but they play. He plays the most important position,

364
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 4: has a position with the biggest impact. And the things

365
00:17:56,520 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 4: that I like about brock Purty is he manages games

366
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:05,440
Speaker 4: well and runs Kyle Shanahan's offense at an efficient level.

367
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 4: And that's all you can ask for from him at

368
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 4: this point. Now, he led a comeback victory last week

369
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 4: against Detroit Lions. He led another comeback victory the previous

370
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 4: week against the Green Bay Packers. So he has to

371
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 4: be a little bit more than a game manager if

372
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 4: he's leading comeback victory. So I think he deserves a

373
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 4: little bit more respect that he's getting. But is he

374
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 4: an upper echelon quarterback. No, but there's not too many

375
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,120
Speaker 4: upper echelon quarterbacks in the NFL for sure.

376
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:40,160
Speaker 1: NFL Insider from USA Today that is Tyler Dragon. Follow

380
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 4: So I'm on record already. I picked the Ken City

381
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 4: Chiefs to win twenty three to twenty. But I think

382
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 4: it's going to be a close super Bowl. However, I

383
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 4: got a Mahomes, Travis Kelsey, Chris Jones, the.

384
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: Usual and that's right, the usual group that'll do it.

385
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 1: I'm with you on on that Chiefs bandwagon as well.

386
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 1: I think Mayte you're on the other side. Hey, one

387
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: thing about Tyler Dragon here, folks, former NC double a

388
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:17,440
Speaker 1: athlete at the University of California, Los Angeles, simply known

389
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 1: as u c l A. So I've got to ask

390
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: you a track and field question because you also covered

391
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:23,719
Speaker 1: that for the USA today. Are you okay with that?

392
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 4: Yeah? Go ahead.

393
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 1: I love Draconfield my first love, and Mayte, don't try

394
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,200
Speaker 1: and get you. Ain't racing him to the store either,

395
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,679
Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, no no no. He will

396
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,360
Speaker 1: watch you, okay, real quick. This past summer I met

397
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 1: Usain Bolt. He walked by my table at a Miami

398
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 1: restaurant and I said, hey, Champ, how are you. He

399
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 1: I did like like I got chills. I got chills, man.

400
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 1: I'm I made a lot of great athletes through the

401
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: years doing this gig. But but he was something different, Tyler,

402
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 1: I mean he was something different, you know what I mean, Like,

403
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,879
Speaker 1: is he considered My question is that is he considered

404
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 1: the most dominant track and field athlete of all time?

405
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 1: And if not, where does he rank?

406
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 4: Oh man, that's that's a great question. I would say,

407
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 4: you say Bowl and Jesse Owens are the two best

408
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:14,679
Speaker 4: track and field athletes ever and in recent memories, for

409
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 4: sure it's Usain Bowl just his dominance at the Olympic level,

410
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,680
Speaker 4: in the world championship level, and the current world record holder.

411
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 4: I don't know if those records are going to be broken.

412

449
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 1: We're gonna stick with some quarterbacks on this one. Chiefs

450
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: quarterback Patrick Mahomes in his sixth season as the starting

451
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 1: quarterback in the NFL. This cat already has fourteen playoff

452
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 1: wins in six seasons. Only two quarterbacks in NFL history

453
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: have more playoff wins than Mahomes. Who are they mate?

454
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 1: Gotta be Brady. Here's one who's I'll say Peyton Manning.

455
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 1: Oh good poll, but it's Joe Montana and he has sixteen.

456
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 1: Mahomes has fourteen. He's tied with Peyton Manning at the

457
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: fourteen with l he was already tied with Peyton Many.

458
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 1: He's already tied with Manning through six seasons. How about

459
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 1: that playoff victories? He's a walk in Hall of Famer

460
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,919
Speaker 1: if it ended, you know a week from this Sunday,

461
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: that kids in the Hall of fame. I mean, think

462
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 1: about it.

463
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 3: Six years, six AFC West titles, six AFC Championship Game appearances,

464
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 3: four Super Bowl appearances, and he's not yet thirty years.

465
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,800

466
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 3: I mean absolutely, let me think about it. He could

467
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,440
Speaker 3: play for twenty years. Brady played for what twenty twenty

468
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,639
Speaker 3: three years? He's only played six Some of.

469
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:13,919
Speaker 1: The goats are still playing like right now, Like Mahomes

470
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 1: could end up to be the goat, Kelsey could be

471
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 1: the goat. Gronkowski who the goat? The greatest ever play

482
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 5: three players in NFL history that have receptions in the

483
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,360
Speaker 5: NFL over the age of forty.

484
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,840

485
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 5: Now one of them you just mentioned who you would

486
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 5: have never thought has a reception. But Tom Brady is

487
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 5: one of those.

488
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 1: Guys, So you need to you need two more. I

489
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:14,000

490
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,159
Speaker 1: you're right. I was gonna say, you're right on.

491
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,479

492
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:20,919
Speaker 1: Okay.

493
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 5: So Tom Brady and this fellow position quarterback had a

494
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 5: catch over for it, So it's it's Brett Farve. So

496
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,399
