1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,560 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. 3 00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:08,280 Speaker 2: We put our pants on the same way you do. 4 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,280 Speaker 2: It's a Friday. It's a meat Friday. Yes see. I 5 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:13,000 Speaker 2: think there are a lot. 6 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 3: Of people this morning who put their pants on and 7 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:16,960 Speaker 3: thought of us immediately this morning. 8 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:21,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, because I used my Lou Holtz impersonation. They put 9 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 2: your pants on the same way we do. And so 10 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 2: I waited a day after the passing of Lou Holtz. 11 00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 2: But then we started talking about how do you put 12 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 2: your pants on in the morning, and lo and behold, 13 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 2: it's either left leg first or right leg first. Paul 14 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 2: Y both legs jumping in fritzy somehow brought up folkrum. 15 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 2: Who knew? You know, we build up this great morale 16 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 2: the last week and a half or so, and it's 17 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 2: all gone to hell. Yeah, Meet Friday has really divided 18 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 2: the building. Yeah, there is some overt tension. Dylan has 19 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 2: been prepping for days and he said, hey, I was 20 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 2: gonna have some Indian food. I said, well, just make 21 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 2: sure there's some meat in there. It's a meat Friday. 22 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 2: And so he said, okay. He was prepping yesterday afternoon, 23 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 2: he was prepping this morning. I come in and I 24 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 2: hear from a couple of backroom guys, I'm not eating that. 25 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 2: I go, well, you don't have to, but let's try it. 26 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 2: Let's be open minded. We have buttered chicken, lamb tica, masala, garlic, 27 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 2: Nan and Rice. Who has it better than we do? 28 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 4: Pretty much? 29 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 5: Everyone? Oh wow? 30 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 2: Who is the most concerned of the dan Ettes? 31 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: Dodd. 32 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 2: I'm gonna guess this might not agree with you. 33 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 6: I'm very concerned about the menu. I don't know if 34 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 6: I'm gonna like it, and I don't know what's gonna 35 00:01:59,200 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 6: happen after eating it. 36 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 2: Okay, but you've had Indian food before. 37 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 5: I tried a little bit yesterday. 38 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 6: I had like, what like two little teeny pieces of 39 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 6: some kind of chicken curry thing that I put on 40 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 6: a piece of bagel. 41 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 2: But before yesterday, I've never had an Indiana Okay. 42 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 7: Yes, Todd is not adventurous in anything in life and 43 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 7: food especially. I'm surprised, living in Brooklyn he hadn't had 44 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,359 Speaker 7: Indian food before. It's an eclectic area. 45 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 6: I don't know why we can't just have hot dogs 46 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 6: and hamburgers and pizza and meatball subs and called meat. 47 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 2: Forridder's nothing wrong with that. Yeah, yeah, I mean that 48 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 2: that's your food. 49 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 5: My wheel, have your food wings. There's a million things 50 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 5: I would eat ahead of that. 51 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 2: Anybody else concerned in here? 52 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 3: I don't know if concerned is the right word. I'm 53 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 3: I've tried Indian food many, many times. My wife and 54 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 3: my son love it. They absolutely love it, and I've tried. 55 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 3: I've gone out with them many times. I've gone out 56 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 3: with our friends who are Indian to their favorite Indian 57 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 3: restaurants and eating food with them. And when I travel 58 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 3: that it's when my wife and son go get Indian food. 59 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 3: All Right, It's just not my thing. I just it's 60 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 3: not my flavor profile. 61 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 2: All right, Well, we have to overcome this. I've tried 62 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 2: it many times, though. I really have this on the 63 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 2: heels of a team building lunch. And now all of 64 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 2: a sudden, this is a team disbuilding or dismantling. Something 65 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 2: has gone on, something's gone wrong off the rails. But 66 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 2: you know what, in my family, with my wife and kids, 67 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 2: you got a gold star if you tried something, and 68 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 2: of course I aspired to get a gold star. The 69 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 2: kids would be like, do I get a gold store 70 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 2: for that? They'd be like five years old. Do I 71 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 2: get a gold Star? Yes? You do? Okay, I'll try it. 72 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 3: Did you guys do a clean plate club by any chance? 73 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 8: Yeah? 74 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's big in our house. 75 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 2: All right, So welcome to the program.

Good morning, if you're watching on 86 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 2: Peacock or NBC Sports Network or our radio affiliates around 87 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 2: the country. iHeartRadio, Fox Sports Radio Seat and we'll have 88 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 2: a poll question coming up. If you haven't seen him, 89 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:35,840 Speaker 2: please do. Victor Wembenyama coming to an arena near you. 90 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 2: He had thirty eight, sixteen and five blocks and the 91 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 2: Spurs beat the Pistons. San Antonio Is won thirteen of 92 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 2: its last fourteen and Wemby is the first NBA player 93 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,119 Speaker 2: with thirty eight sixteen five blocks in the game since 94 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 2: Joelnbiid in twenty twenty two, and well the first Spur 95 00:04:55,760 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: to do it sin David Robinson in nineteen ninety no 96 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 2: turnovers as well. He is a very, very fluid player. 97 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 2: It's not like your big guy can be a little 98 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:27,679 Speaker 2: bit clumsy. He's got a great handle and great hands. 99 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 2: I mean, so does Joker. You know, these big men 100 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 2: have evolved that you want the ball in their hands. 101 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 2: They're not afraid to put it on the floor. They're 102 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 2: good passers. But I don't know who's going to win 103 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 2: the MVP this year, but Wemby's gonna win it the 104 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 2: following year. Joker, to me, is the best player in 105 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 2: the game. SGA is the best player on the best team. 106 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 2: But man, you know, objects in your rear view mirror 107 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 2: appear closer. No, No, this object in your rear view 108 00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 2: mirror is closer because Wemby is changing the game. Yes, Paul, 109 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 2: he can't win it this year. I don't think he 110 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 2: can steal it unless Joker doesn't play in the required 111 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 2: sixty five games and or SGA. But after that. I 112 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 2: know people are going to talk about Kad Cunningham and 113 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson really really good players. They're they're not Victor 114 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 2: wembin Yama. Now that doesn't mean that, you know, somebody 115 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 2: like that couldn't come in and steal the MVP. And 116 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 2: this would be the first year that this could happen 117 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 2: because you have to have at least sixty five games, 118 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 2: so you might get some you know, Jaylen Brown with Boston, 119 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 2: you might get somebody who wins the MVP because somebody 120 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 2: or somebody's lost the MVP. But watching Victor wemben Yama, 121 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 2: he had to put back dunk where he had to look, 122 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 2: he had to look out for the rim. He leaned 123 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 2: back so as his head wouldn't hit the rim. But fascinating, 124 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 2: you know. And oh, by the way, Joker at a 125 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 2: triple double last night beating the Lakers. I don't know 126 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 2: why I keep watching the Lakers and going there's going 127 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,559 Speaker 2: to be a different outcome here, because that Denver roster 128 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 2: is not a great roster. It's not. But I'm watching 129 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 2: the Lakers and they're top heavy, and Luca got another 130 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 2: technical here, and we're going to talk to Jim Jackson, 131 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 2: a great analyst. It just feels like the NBA is 132 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 2: turning on Luca right now. Like we saw glimpses of 133 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 2: him complaining before not playing defense, but he was such 134 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 2: a magnificent offensive player. Well, now the Lakers they're on 135 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 2: all the time, They're being discussed all the time. People 136 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 2: weren't discussing the Dallas Mavericks all the time with Luca. 137 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 2: Now everybody knows, Hey, you got to play the ratings game, 138 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 2: you got to get clicks, you got to talk about 139 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 2: the Lakers. Well, if you're talking about the Lakers, what 140 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 2: are the positives? Okay, Lebron has more field goals made 141 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 2: than anybody in the history of the game, passing Kareem 142 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 2: abdul Jabbar. Okay, now what do we talk about. Here's 143 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 2: another technical he's been complaining, whining, But more people are 144 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 2: seeing this, therefore more people talking about this. And then 145 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 2: it just feels like and Kendrick Perkins, who I know, 146 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,679 Speaker 2: is looking for clicks. But you know, even Draymond Green 147 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 2: they said, you know, maybe Nico Harrison was correct in 148 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 2: his assessment of Luca. Now I don't buy into that, 149 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 2: because you still got a generational talent as a score 150 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: and a guy who can give you a triple double, 151 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 2: very good passer. He doesn't play defense and he winds, Okay, 152 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 2: we all know that, but what he does on the 153 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 2: offensive end. You can't give up Luca for Anthony Davis. Okay. 154 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 2: So he could be right about Luca, but you got 155 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 2: to get more than what you got. So you can 156 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 2: tell me, boy, he's smart to get rid of Luca, 157 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 2: but he wasn't smart getting Anthony Davis. He can't have 158 00:08:55,440 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 2: it both ways there. But you're watching Luca. Every call 159 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 2: can't be against you, like sometimes they might get a call, 160 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 2: right and you're a star, you get more calls than 161 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 2: other players do, and you're just watching and you're going, 162 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 2: you're selfish, You're making this all about you. You don't 163 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 2: get the call, get back on defense, don't sit there 164 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 2: and whine. And if I'm a ref am, I going 165 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: to acquiesce to you because you're complaining all the time. Now, 166 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 2: I think coaches get away with this, you know, far 167 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 2: more than players do. But the great players they did wine. 168 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 2: They did complain all the time, and it felt like 169 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 2: they would get extra calls in this situation, like if 170 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 2: Draymond Green was you know, complaining. I'd go, Draymond, shut up, 171 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 2: you get another technical. Okay, we're not doing this, Luke, 172 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 2: I'd say the same thing. Get up, You're better than this. 173 00:09:55,120 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 2: Play the game. Yeah, it's like, hey, oh, how can 174 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 2: you not call that? I get it. Shaq could have 175 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 2: complained every single time down the floor, every single time 176 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 2: he was going to get found. But they can't call 177 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 2: foul on every play. But Luca has got to understand 178 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 2: be a teammate here, not an individual. And it feels 179 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 2: like every time down the floor it's some referendum on 180 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 2: him not getting calls. But Denver ends up with the win. 181 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 9: Yes, Marvin May, you see so many times when it's 182 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 9: a four or five because Luca is already back there. Look, 183 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 9: they're not going to change the call just because you're complaining. 184 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 9: You got to get back on defense. And it's the NBA. 185 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 9: An open three pointer that's a practice shot to these guys. 186 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 9: And so the lack of defense is because you're not 187 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 9: even back there playing defense because you're arguing with. 188 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 2: The ref Lebron had sixteen and with seven field goals made, 189 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 2: he passed Kareem for the most made field goals in 190 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 2: NBA history. All Right, we'll come up with the poll 191 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 2: question and we got our play of the day coming 192 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 2: up your phone. I was always welcome on this controversial 193 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 2: meet Friday eight, seven to seven to three. DP show 194 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 2: email address dpat Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle a DP 195 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 2: show coming up. I want to talk about Jason Tatum. 196 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 2: And when I was at the Super Bowl, I ran 197 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 2: into somebody who has always been a great source with 198 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 2: the Celtics, and I just said, Hey, what are you 199 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 2: thinking with Tatum? He said, well, I'm hearing from this 200 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 2: person that Tatum will be back at the end of 201 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 2: the month. I said, man, is that quick? So I 202 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 2: did come on the air because I trust both of 203 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 2: these sources that he was going to come back at 204 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 2: the end of the month. Well, I'm a week off 205 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 2: because he's going to be coming back tonight against the 206 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,199 Speaker 2: Dallas Mavericks. But I'm going to bring back what Reggie 207 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 2: Miller had to say earlier this week and listen to 208 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:54,119 Speaker 2: what he had to say about Jason Tatum, the surgery 209 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 2: and being able to come back this quickly. 210 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 10: To answer your question, and you and I've kind of 211 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 10: talked about this when he should be back, I'm hearing 212 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 10: as early as Friday that he's thinking about coming back. 213 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 10: I believe they do play Dallas at home. I'm from 214 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 10: the thinking I would like to see him come back 215 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 10: in the playoffs, but people's like, well, he needs games 216 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,839 Speaker 10: under his belt. This will be a decision that he 217 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 10: has to make. I think it's a foregone conclusion that 218 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 10: he is coming back this year. I'm a little surprised, 219 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 10: but I think he's been doing this, working so hard 220 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 10: for his mental and I think he's ahead of schedule. 221 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 10: I don't know if you've watched any of that five 222 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 10: part documentary of you know, the quiet part of them 223 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 10: following him around, the best thing, if there was knock 224 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 10: on wood, the best thing. When he tore his achilles 225 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 10: in Game five, I believe in New York that the 226 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 10: doctor was right there, that they attached it right away, 227 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 10: and the thinking was the body didn't even know that 228 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 10: it had that traumatic experience. That's how quickly, within twenty 229 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 10: four hours they had the surgery on the achilles. So 230 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 10: that's why he is so far ahead of schedule versus 231 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 10: a Damian Lillard or Tyrese Halliburton is because they had 232 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,719 Speaker 10: the surgery within twenty four hours. 233 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 2: He gets injured in New York and it just so 234 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 2: happens that this specialist had an opening on his calendar 235 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 2: the next day at three o'clock and he performed the 236 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 2: surgery less than twenty four hours later. But if you look, 237 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 2: Klay Thompson was out from November of twenty twenty to 238 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 2: January of twenty twenty two, Kevin Durant June of twenty 239 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 2: nineteen to December of twenty twenty, Tyrese Haliburton June of 240 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five, he's still out. And here's Jason Tatum 241 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 2: injured in May and now coming back at the beginning 242 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 2: of March. Pretty remarkable because Achilles surgery that seemed like 243 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 2: that was the end of your career. We've made so 244 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 2: much progress in medicine with surgeries with athletes, certainly with knees, 245 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 2: with acls, even Tommy John but the Achilles that was 246 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 2: always the man. The Achilles going to be at least 247 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 2: a year to come back. Now making great strides here, 248 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 2: no pun intended, but Jason Tatum will be minutes restriction 249 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 2: coming up tonight and the Celtics have been preparing for this, 250 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 2: putting Peyton Pritchard on the bench and having him come 251 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 2: off as their sixth band to get ready for Tatum. Now, 252 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 2: I would do it the other way. I'd have Tatum 253 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 2: come off the bench. I don't want We're not winning 254 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 2: the title in March. We could lose the title in 255 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 2: March if I overextend Jason Tatum, because I do think 256 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 2: the Celtics are the team to beat in the East. 257 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 2: All Right, football news, more news coming up next week. 258 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 2: We will try to foreshadow what that could look like. 259 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 2: Ian Rappaport of NFL Network will join us next year, 260 00:14:58,680 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 2: Dan Patrick Show. 261 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 1: Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan 262 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific 263 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app. 264 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 2: Hey, it's Rob Parker and Calvin Washington from The Odd 265 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 2: Couple on Fox Sports Radio. 266 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 11: And in addition to hearing us live weeknights from seven 267 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 11: to ten pm Eastern on Fox Sports Radio, we are 268 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 11: excited to announce brand new YouTube channel for the show. 269 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 7: That's right, You can now watch The Odd Couple live 270 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 7: on YouTube every day. 271 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 11: All you gotta do search Odd Couple FSR on YouTube. 272 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 11: Again YouTube, Just search Odd Couple FSR.

Ian give me the Bills side 281 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: of the trade yesterday. Their strategy. 282 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, I think for the Bills it's fairly simple. 283 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 12: They have been trying for more than a year to 284 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 12: acquire a big time playmaker for Josh Allen, and you 285 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 12: needed someone you knew was going to come in contribute 286 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 12: right away and you know, be the kind of difference maker. 287 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 12: I think it's fair to say that the offense is 288 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,479 Speaker 12: probably needed. You know, you remember at the trade deadline, 289 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 12: the Buffalo Bills were in it for Jalen Waddle, right, 290 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 12: didn't end up doing it. I think the Dolphins were like, 291 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 12: we don't want Jalen Moadde to beat us twice a 292 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 12: year makes sense, So didn't end up getting that deal done. 293 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 12: And you know, I think the Bills were in on 294 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 12: the aj Brown deal and said, you know what this 295 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 12: one makes sense for us, And the fact that DJ 296 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 12: Moore at two of his best seasons with Joe Brady 297 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 12: when the two were in Carolina probably made this fit 298 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 12: a little easier. 299 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 4: So Dj Moore goes to. 300 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 12: The Bills, and I think, if you're the Bears, you know, 301 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 12: I like what they did. Compensation wise, it's basically the 302 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 12: value of a you know, third round pick three slash four, 303 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 12: but they gave up a five and got a two. 304 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 4: That's a really good way to do it for Chicago. 305 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 2: And they'll try to replace him, IM get a guest 306 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 2: with that draft pick or draft picks, but then now 307 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 2: you got to replace your center as well. Yeah, with 308 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,360 Speaker 2: the Chicago Bears. How surprising was that for you? 309 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 12: You know, Dolman had been I would say, contemplating this 310 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 12: for the last several weeks. So I think it caught 311 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 12: you know, the public by surprise. Chicago has really known. 312 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 12: In fact, you know, one of the ways I found 313 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 12: out about it was Tyler Biatis, who actually is signing 314 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 12: a three or thirty million dollar deal with the Chargers. 315 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 12: You know, he was planning to visit Chicago, and you're 316 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 12: sort of like, well, why would Beatis be planning to 317 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,679 Speaker 12: visit Chicago. He played center, they have a center, and 318 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 12: then you sort of realize, like, what's been going on. 319 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 12: You know, it's tough to know what goes on inside 320 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 12: someone's head. But what I would say is, if at 321 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 12: some point, first of all, you've made enough money, second 322 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 12: of all, you decide you're not fully in this, you 323 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 12: should definitely not play because football is not something that 324 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,439 Speaker 12: you can sort of do halfway. So you know, he 325 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 12: I think he gave up a total of fourteen million dollars, 326 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:18,199 Speaker 12: including repaying some of his signing bonus, so capwise end 327 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 12: up being not bad for Chicago. 328 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 2: The Rams Chiefs trade you can't normally get blockbusters like 329 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 2: that in early March. How surprised were you and how 330 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 2: would you grade this? 331 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 1: Yeah? 332 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 12: I mean, fascinating trade and made for a unbelievable talk 333 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 12: about Frenzy, made for an unbelievable frenzied several hours as 334 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:38,919 Speaker 12: I tried to nail this down and figure out what 335 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,920 Speaker 12: rumors were true. And you know, it's fun when these 336 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 12: things happened because the principles involved in the deal, everybody 337 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 12: goes silence. So that's kind of what happened here is 338 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,439 Speaker 12: you know, there's probably ten people I can call on 339 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,479 Speaker 12: all sides of this, and for two hours no one 340 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,880 Speaker 12: said a word, and you're like, either I'm crazy, possible, 341 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 12: or this deal is definitely happening. It turned out this 342 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 12: deal was happening. It was very fun to hit send 343 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 12: on that one. So, you know, I would say for 344 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 12: the Rams, the interesting sort of rumor or whatever you 345 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 12: want to call it that I heard on the Rams. 346 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 12: I know they have a lot of their players that 347 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 12: are up now, Puku Nakua, Kobe Turner, a lot of 348 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 12: really good players. What I was told was they want 349 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,640 Speaker 12: to get those guys done. That's important, but they're going 350 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 12: to spend regardless. They believe you know, look, we don't 351 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 12: know if it's Matt Stafford's last year, but it might be. 352 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 12: They believe they have a window and they want to 353 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 12: take advantage of it. So I was thinking in my head, like, 354 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 12: all right, the Rams are going to load it for something. 355 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 12: Trent mcduffy makes sense. They knew the Chiefs really like 356 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 12: him but were never able to get to a contract 357 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 12: for him. So whenever the contract gets done with the 358 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 12: Rams will likely be the highest paid corner And for 359 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 12: the Chiefs, same thing they did with the Tyreek Hill deal. 360 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 12: Got a great player, get draft pick compensation, rebuild a 361 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,119 Speaker 12: part of our team with these draft picks, and keep 362 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 12: it moving. 363 00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 2: What's Pukin Nakua going to get. 364 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 4: A money a lot of money? 365 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 12: You know, I would you know, I would think they'll 366 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 12: take a look at it this offseason, whether it's this offseason, 367 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 12: next offseason. I mean, you know, he and JSN are 368 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 12: both in the category of like, whenever they get paid, 369 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 12: it's going to be a lot. 370 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 4: So you know, will they be the highest paid receiver? 371 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 12: Maybe, But either way, you're talking something in the thirties 372 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 12: for super super productive pass catchers. 373 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 2: And I'm wondering who goes first there, because somebody's going 374 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 2: to set the market between those two. And then yeah, 375 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 2: I don't know, if you know, Phoka comes in after 376 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 2: js In and goes, I'm better than him. I want 377 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 2: thirty thirty six million dollars a year. 378 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 12: Well, you know, I would say generally what happens is 379 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 12: if a guy's going to take a deal after he 380 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 12: knows that he's probably gonna get a little more. 381 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 4: And if you're the guy. 382 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 12: That goes first, you know, if you have a good 383 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 12: agent and both these guys have really good agents. They 384 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 12: will say, you're going to do this deal. It's the 385 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 12: right time, it's the right deal for you. Like, negotiations 386 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 12: happen when they happen, So sometimes they end in April, sometimes. 387 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 4: They end in June. 388 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 12: Whenever they end, the agent's going to tell them like, look, 389 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 12: you're probably gonna get jumped, like that's the way this works. 390 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 12: But you do the right deal for you, and if 391 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 12: someone comes in a little above you, that is okay. 392 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 2: I'm talking to Ian Rappaport NFL Network Insider their free 393 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 2: agency coverage Monday through Wednesday next week, starting at ten 394 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 2: am Eastern. Try to understand the Patriots. Can I connect 395 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 2: the dots that Stefan Diggs released and then AJ Brown 396 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 2: is certainly a possibility there. 397 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 12: They are connected, but not fully connected, like the Patriots 398 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 12: releasing Stefan Diggs was a decision made not to say, like, 399 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 12: we're only going to do this if we get AJ Brown. 400 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 12: You know, My sense is it was sort of like 401 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 12: the Patriots have done the last twenty years, which is, 402 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 12: you know, cut a player loose a little before it 403 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 12: becomes a thing, right Like, so we rather do it 404 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,719 Speaker 12: a year earlier than a year late. Diggs was awesome 405 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 12: for them. It was a great signing. You know, had 406 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 12: the off the field issues, which you know, we'll see 407 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 12: which way those go are kind of what the fallout 408 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,919 Speaker 12: from that is. But obviously something as an organization they 409 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 12: heard about and dealt with before the Super Bowl. 410 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 4: He's thirty three years old. 411 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 12: They decided cut bait there, say it was a great 412 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 12: season and kind of move on, and then you know 413 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 12: they're in it for a j. 414 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 4: Brown. 415 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 12: I get the sense it's real. I know there are 416 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 12: other teams too, and then if you're the Eagles, you know, 417 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 12: it's like I was joking around with someone. I was like, oh, 418 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 12: is it you know, trade or bust. It's like, it's 419 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 12: not trade or bust. It's trade or the Eagles because 420 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 12: that is a good situation too. 421 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,160 Speaker 4: And he's one of their best players. 422 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 12: So I think a trade could happen, But I'm not 423 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 12: gonna say like it's definitely definitely happening, and I'm not 424 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 12: gonna say it's definitely definitely having to the Patriots. 425 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 4: We'll see. 426 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 2: What do you expect this weekend early next week? 427 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,360 Speaker 12: A lot of tweets, a lot of tweets, a lot 428 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 12: of phone calls a lot of tweets. I think you 429 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 12: know what generally happened is the trades happen kind of 430 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 12: early because teams would like to know going into the week, 431 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 12: like what do we have right like, so I would 432 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 12: say today and tomorrow, maybe into Sunday morning. You'll probably 433 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 12: get some more trades as teams clear space, as they 434 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:19,399 Speaker 12: you know, get rid of some veterans, as they collect 435 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 12: draft picks, those sorts of things, and then you know, 436 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 12: we'll probably still see some trades during free agency frenzy, 437 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 12: but usually it's more just like very very quickly, a 438 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:31,439 Speaker 12: lot of players get a lot of money, and I 439 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 12: expect it to be very quick. 440 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 2: Is the NFL still a copycat league. 441 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 12: As far as one team does one thing, another team says, 442 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 12: all right, that's a good idea, we should do the same. 443 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. Like the Rams with what they do with their 444 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 2: draft picks that they go all in nine out of 445 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 2: the last ten years they've traded their first round pick. 446 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 2: So I don't I don't know if they like are 447 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 2: they the model of consistency that people would look at 448 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 2: and say we would like to emulate. 449 00:23:59,800 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 11: No. 450 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 12: I think the Rams have been different because they've been 451 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 12: in the window for so long. I mean they've they've 452 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 12: been to several Super Bowls, they've won one. I think 453 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 12: the difference with the Rams and like, you know, not 454 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 12: everyone else, but how many teams have really been in 455 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 12: the championship window for the for the last decade, right, 456 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 12: I mean, Chiefs have, Ravens have, not a there's some others, 457 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 12: but there's not you know, there's not a ton. So 458 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 12: when they've been in their window, they've said, you know what, 459 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 12: let's just let's just get this really good player. And 460 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 12: I think one thing the Rams like is they will say, 461 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 12: we'll give up, you know, the thirtieth or twenty ninth, 462 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 12: whatever pick it is, because I think twenty nine, we'll 463 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 12: give that up and know that we are getting a 464 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 12: great player rather than the sixty percent chance of getting 465 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 12: a great player with that draft pick. Like they'll take 466 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 12: the certainty rather than the uncertainty. Some teams don't want that. 467 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 12: Some teams will say, I'll take the lottery ticket. 468 00:24:58,440 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 4: You know. 469 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 12: It's like if I say to you, I'm going to 470 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 12: give you fifty dollars or a lottery ticket, like you'd 471 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 12: probably be split on how many people would take each. 472 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 4: So I don't think it's a copycat league. 473 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 12: I just think the Rams generally are in the window 474 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 12: and they will take the certainty of knowing they have 475 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 12: a great player. 476 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 2: Help me understand. I've seen the headlines, and you can't 477 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 2: always buy into a headline. But is Aaron Rodgers holding 478 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 2: the Steelers hostage again? Or is it? You know, this 479 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 2: predicated on the Steelers. If they want to sign Aaron, 480 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 2: then they offer him a contract. So I'm I'm trying 481 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 2: to figure that out. And even his appearance on McAfee 482 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 2: didn't necessarily clear it up for me. 483 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 12: No, we learned a lot of other things though, learned 484 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 12: a lot of other things, a lot about his personal life. 485 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 4: I was not expected, But here we are. Yeah. 486 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 12: I would say for him to say there's not an 487 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 12: offer that he's considering, I think that's true. But my 488 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 12: guess is he probably knows what the offer would be, right, Like, 489 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 12: you get to this point in your career. He's made 490 00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 12: a lot of money, you know, I think he was 491 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 12: last year. Yeah, whatever it was. Like, my guess is 492 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 12: it's similar. So whether it's been offered or not, he 493 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 12: probably knows what it is. It's just a matter of 494 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 12: him saying, do I want to play or not. You know, 495 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 12: my sense is it's the Steelers or no one. It's 496 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 12: just on him to sort of make a decision and. 497 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 4: Let us all know. 498 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 12: And if you want to tell us all sorts of 499 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 12: things about his personal life and his exercise schedule and 500 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,120 Speaker 12: all that, we'll probably take that as well. 501 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 2: The Vikings wouldn't be in the mix here. 502 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 4: You know, they had a chance last year and didn't 503 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 4: do it. 504 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 12: I'd be surprised if they did it this year with 505 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 12: the same exact opportunity presented. 506 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 2: Could you okay, then let's do the musical chairs here 507 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:47,399 Speaker 2: Kyler Murray to Malik Willis throwing Kirk Cousins. I guess 508 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,640 Speaker 2: if you want to sure got a feeling on any 509 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 2: of those quarterbacks? 510 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean I would say, you know, we've talked 511 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 12: about this. Minnesota makes a lot of sense for Kyler. 512 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 12: He's gonna have a lot of options because he's going 513 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,159 Speaker 12: to make a million bucks, you know, because the Cardinals 514 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,880 Speaker 12: are paying all of it, just like Tua two is gonna, 515 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 12: you know, make the minimum because it offsets into his 516 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 12: previous deal and that's all fully guaranteed. So the previous 517 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 12: team pays all the money and the new team gets 518 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 12: one of the best deals in the century, you know, 519 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,679 Speaker 12: of the century, So Minnesota makes sense for Kyle. I 520 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 12: think a bunch of other teams is gonna be interested 521 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 12: in The Jets will be interested. 522 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 4: I mean, there's gonna be a lot of teams. I 523 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 4: would say for Kirk Cousins, I don't get the sense. 524 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,439 Speaker 12: He would play for the minimum, so his you know, 525 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 12: hit Basically, if he gets paid more than ten, then 526 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 12: the new team pays it, right, then he gets more money. 527 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 4: He's making ten no matter what from the Falcons. 528 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 12: So if he doesn't want to play for the minimum, 529 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 12: then there's a chance he just waits. And he's the 530 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 12: guy who if anyone gets injured, they go, I'll take 531 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,639 Speaker 12: that guy. And you know, he's made a lot of money, 532 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 12: but he is an excellent businessman and. 533 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:50,919 Speaker 4: He always would like more money. 534 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 12: So I could see Cousins hanging around and waiting a 535 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 12: little bit. And you know, as far as too, I 536 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,679 Speaker 12: do think he's gonna have options of just not just 537 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 12: not sure where he ends up landing right now. 538 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 2: And is mac Jones going to be available? 539 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:10,399 Speaker 12: You know, I think everyone's available. Mac Jones is in 540 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 12: a weird situation of he played so well last year, 541 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 12: and brock Purdy. 542 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 4: Has had times where he's missed time. 543 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:19,680 Speaker 12: So if you're the forty nine ers, like I think 544 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 12: they would do a deal, but god, it would have 545 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 12: to be worth it to where, like, you know, let's 546 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 12: just let's play this out a little bit. Let's say 547 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,679 Speaker 12: the forty nine ers trade mac Jones somewhere for a 548 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 12: mid round pick. 549 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 4: Okay, totally reasonable. 550 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 12: And then you know, God forbid, brock Purdy gets injured 551 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 12: next year and they go. 552 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 4: Why did we just do this? 553 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 12: That's the fear, because if you're the forty nine ers, like, 554 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 12: they're another team that's in their super Bowl window all 555 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 12: the time, So it has to be something where it 556 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 12: is worth it. 557 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 4: If you trade your backup. 558 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 2: Quarterback, yeah, I wouldn't trade him. 559 00:28:58,480 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 4: You wouldn't trade it. 560 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, not this next year because 561 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 2: there's no guarantee with brock perty staying healthy for seventeen games. 562 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 2: And I know I have a quarterback who could be 563 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 2: equal to him, who's the backup, And I don't know 564 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 2: if any other team in the NFL has that luxury 565 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 2: right now. 566 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 4: Right, I mean, And that's this is the problem. 567 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 12: And it's like when you're talking trades, You're like, all right, 568 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 12: you know, we talked about guard so these guy's going 569 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 12: to go for three, this guy's going to go for. 570 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 4: A four, et cetera. 571 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 12: It's like you have to know that, you know, you're 572 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 12: giving up a guy that you might need, and that's 573 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 12: always sort of the issue. 574 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 4: This time, it's really complex and interesting. 575 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 2: And Malik Willis it feels like it's Miami or Arizona, 576 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 2: given the connections of Mike Lafloor to Matt Lafleur and 577 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:43,959 Speaker 2: then the front office going to the Dolphins. 578 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I think he's going to have more 579 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 4: than that. You know. 580 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 12: Again, like he's an interesting case because he doesn't have 581 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 12: a lot of throws, but when he's played, he has 582 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:58,040 Speaker 12: played awesome in the biggest moments. So you're not going 583 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:00,719 Speaker 12: to sign Malik Willis and then say, what's he going 584 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 12: to be like in the fourth quarter. You know you've 585 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 12: seen it. It's just not a huge sample size. Like 586 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 12: I think he's going to do really well. You know, 587 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 12: I think those two teams make sense. But it's really 588 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 12: like one of the more interesting free agentsies sometimes because 589 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 12: he could come in be the franchise quarterback we all 590 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 12: thought he was going to be in the in the draft, 591 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 12: and you know, could be another sign where once again 592 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 12: the whole world gives up on a quarterback too early, 593 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 12: and then he comes in and he's Sam Darnold, you know, 594 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 12: holding a trophy like We've seen a lot of examples 595 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:30,239 Speaker 12: of that. 596 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 2: What's the next contract going to be worth for a quarterback? 597 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 2: Like like Drake May, what's his contract in five years ninety? 598 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 12: I mean I would say, first of all, probably looking 599 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 12: at you know, you'd hope to do four years. You know, 600 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 12: Dak Prescott's still the gold standard at sixty. I think 601 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 12: whenever Lamar gets a deal done with the Baltimore Ravens, 602 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 12: which you know doesn't sound imminent, but you know, you'd 603 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 12: hope this offseason, you know, that might be the one 604 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 12: that either sets the bar comes close. But yeah, I mean, 605 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 12: if Dack's at sixty, I think the next round of 606 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 12: quarterback deals you're pushing sixty or maybe more like but 607 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 12: the caps going up. 608 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:11,719 Speaker 4: That's what you want, right that you want all these 609 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 4: guys to get paid. They all deserve it. 610 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 12: If you're you know, the worst problem you have is 611 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 12: also the best, which is you got to pay your 612 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 12: quarterback a lot of money because that means you got 613 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 12: a guy, and that's. 614 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 4: A very good thing. 615 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 2: Thanks for taking time. 616 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 4: Awesome, good hanging man. 617 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 2: Take Ian Rappaport NFL Network Insider the Free Agency Frenzy 618 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 2: coverage Monday through Wednesday next week, starting at ten am 619 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 2: Eastern on NFL Network.

That's got a ring. The DJ 659 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 3: Moore trade will make the Bills better, the Bears better, 660 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 3: both teams better. Neither team improved much. 661 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 2: Okay, well, we don't know what the Bears will do. 662 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 2: So it's hard to grade that they're not better today 663 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 2: because of the trade. But but will they be m 664 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:10,799 Speaker 2: M Will that be a trade that makes them significantly better? Well, 665 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 2: Buffalo got better, but it feels like they overpaid. But 666 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 2: you know, if I'm Buffalo, I have to take the 667 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 2: same strategy as the Rams. You got a window of 668 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 2: opportunity because Mahomes is eventually gonna get healthy. Now it 669 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 2: might be a little later into the season, but Jay 670 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 2: Glazer said he thinks Mahomes is gonna be ready to 671 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 2: go to start the season when he joined us yesterday. 672 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 2: These teams in the AFC, you have a chance there's 673 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 2: an opening here. I don't think the Patriots will be 674 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 2: as good next year, but you've got bad teams in 675 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,840 Speaker 2: that division, and you know the Jets and the Dolphins, 676 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,320 Speaker 2: so you should be able to You know, I wouldn't 677 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 2: be surprised if Buffalo ends up with twelve wins. Buffalo Baltimore. 678 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 2: It comes down to what are you going to do 679 00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 2: when you get to the postseason. You know, the Chargers 680 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,320 Speaker 2: getting their tackles back. They got money under the cap 681 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 2: to be able to go out and have some fun here. 682 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 2: You know, can the Niners regroup. There's a lot of 683 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 2: teams that my philosophy would be if you're going to 684 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 2: be all in, now's the time to do it. Because 685 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 2: that's what the Rams just did. The Rams are now 686 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 2: super Bowl favorites. Now that could all go sideways if 687 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford is not able to play an entire season. 688 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, Paulling, and you could look at the Bill's strategy 689 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 7: and say they overpaid yesterday for a good wide receiver. 690 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 7: But if they somehow win a Super Bowl, it all 691 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 7: gets washed away. I went back and looked at the 692 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 7: Jalen Ramsey trade with the Rams years ago. They gave 693 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 7: up a ton, but after they got him, he was 694 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 7: first team All Pro and they won the Super Bowl. 695 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,319 Speaker 7: No one ever would criticize that type of trade after that. 696 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:51,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, it washes everything away. Yes, that trade turns out 697 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 2: to be awesome, even though it could, you know, haunt 698 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 2: you for three years after that you win a Super Bowl. 699 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 2: Bill's neat just get to a super Bowl. Just get there. 700 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 2: But the window is open. And that's why I ask 701 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:09,360 Speaker 2: Ian Rapaport is the NFL still a copycat league? Because 702 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,720 Speaker 2: if it is, I would be modeling my team after 703 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 2: the Rams, because they've been relevant, they won a Super Bowl, 704 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 2: been to another super Bowl for a decade. Yes, Morvion, it. 705 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 9: Feels like the Bills are out of that get there, 706 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 9: when you get there, win it. They feel like that 707 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 9: would be an enormous stake. But even gotten there, but 708 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 9: when they do, it's going to be a huge disappointment. 709 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,720 Speaker 9: If the best quarterback in the game by many. 710 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, but if I said to Buffalo, if I send 711 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,759 Speaker 2: to Buffalo, pins, losing is always worse. Thank you, thank you, Todd. No, no, no, 712 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 2: if you get. 713 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 3: There, you want a lot of second let me get 714 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 3: this straight. 715 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 2: Are you saying, Marvin, wouldn't you like to clarify?

Are they gonna Are they 725 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 2: going to take away a super Bowl appearance just because 726 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 2: they don't want the pain of losing another one. Is 727 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:33,839 Speaker 2: that what you're saying, Marvin. 728 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 5: They want to win.
