00:00:35,388 --> 00:00:36,468
Speaker 4: What's happening? How are you?

8
00:00:36,748 --> 00:00:40,268
Speaker 1: P Shragg's voice listed as probable going to stretch out

9
00:00:40,308 --> 00:00:42,188
Speaker 1: on the field before the game, Peter, I like it.

10
00:00:42,508 --> 00:00:44,508
Speaker 1: This is your flu game exactly.

11
00:00:44,988 --> 00:00:46,908
Speaker 3: He is in parts unknown rap sheet does not we

12
00:00:46,988 --> 00:00:49,748
Speaker 3: know rap sheet where he is, and that's in his phone,

13
00:00:49,948 --> 00:00:52,348
Speaker 3: in his sources, in his bag, if you will, Ian,

14
00:00:52,388 --> 00:00:54,508
Speaker 3: good morning to you. Baltimore added a big piece to

15
00:00:54,508 --> 00:00:58,548
Speaker 3: their backfield yesterday. We're waiting, waiting, waiting on this one,

16
00:00:58,588 --> 00:00:59,388
Speaker 3: and it finally broke.

17
00:00:59,428 --> 00:00:59,988
Speaker 4: What's going on.

18
00:01:00,188 --> 00:01:03,908
Speaker 5: We've been waiting on the Baltimore Ravens to sign acquire

19
00:01:04,468 --> 00:01:07,068
Speaker 5: something with Derrick Henry very very long time. Remember all

20
00:01:07,108 --> 00:01:09,348
Speaker 5: the way back to the NFL scouting combine, not this

21
00:01:09,388 --> 00:01:11,548
Speaker 5: past year, but last year. There are rumors about the

22
00:01:11,588 --> 00:01:14,548
Speaker 5: Baltimore Ravens trying to trade for Derrick Henry.

23
00:01:14,588 --> 00:01:15,268
Speaker 6: That never happened.

24
00:01:15,268 --> 00:01:18,188
Speaker 5: Then the trade deadline, more rumors about the Ravens trying

25
00:01:18,188 --> 00:01:21,548
Speaker 5: to trade for Derrick Henry. Again, that never happened. Yesterday

26
00:01:21,548 --> 00:01:24,828
Speaker 5: it finally happened. The Baltimore Ravens have agreed to terms

27
00:01:24,988 --> 00:01:28,468
Speaker 5: with the former Tennessee Titans star running back King Henry,

28
00:01:28,788 --> 00:01:31,268
Speaker 5: the former NFL rushing leader.

29
00:01:31,268 --> 00:01:32,108
Speaker 6: He gets a two.

30
00:01:31,948 --> 00:01:35,068
Speaker 5: Year, sixteen million dollar deal at his base twenty million

31
00:01:35,068 --> 00:01:38,308
Speaker 5: dollars max value nine million dollars in year one. That's

32
00:01:38,348 --> 00:01:41,348
Speaker 5: the most important number for the veteran Derrick Henry and

33
00:01:41,468 --> 00:01:43,908
Speaker 5: gives you an idea of where the running.

34
00:01:43,588 --> 00:01:44,348
Speaker 6: Back market is.

35
00:01:44,788 --> 00:01:48,828
Speaker 5: Josh Jacobson safe one, Barkley over twelve, Derrick Henry at nine,

36
00:01:48,908 --> 00:01:51,028
Speaker 5: then some of the other really good backs Tony Pollard

37
00:01:51,028 --> 00:01:55,508
Speaker 5: for instance, at about eight million dollars. Equality quality signing

38
00:01:55,588 --> 00:01:58,988
Speaker 5: for the Baltimore Ravens something a weapon added to their

39
00:01:58,988 --> 00:01:59,988
Speaker 5: offense that I know.

40
00:01:59,948 --> 00:02:01,748
Speaker 6: They have coveted for quite some time.

41
00:02:02,068 --> 00:02:05,308
Speaker 5: Meanwhile, the Houston Texans made a splash of their own

42
00:02:05,828 --> 00:02:09,468
Speaker 5: yesterday afternoon. They agreed to terms with Daniel Hunter, the

43
00:02:09,788 --> 00:02:13,348
Speaker 5: former pro bowler from the Minnesota Vikings. He goes home

44
00:02:13,668 --> 00:02:18,028
Speaker 5: a Texas native. He now lands in Houston with the Texans.

45
00:02:18,068 --> 00:02:19,268
Speaker 6: This was the place he wanted.

46
00:02:19,348 --> 00:02:22,468
Speaker 5: Actually gave up more money elsewhere to go sign with

47
00:02:22,748 --> 00:02:25,788
Speaker 5: Jamiko Ryans and this really good Texans defense and play

48
00:02:25,828 --> 00:02:27,788
Speaker 5: with CJ. Strodden, one of the more up and coming

49
00:02:27,788 --> 00:02:31,028
Speaker 5: teams in the NFL. He gets a two year, forty

50
00:02:31,108 --> 00:02:35,188
Speaker 5: nine million dollar deal. Forty eight million dollars fully guaranteed.

51
00:02:35,508 --> 00:02:37,908
Speaker 5: That's the biggest part of that ninety eight million dollars

52
00:02:38,228 --> 00:02:41,708
Speaker 5: fully guaranteed for Daniel Hunter, a big time signing on

53
00:02:41,868 --> 00:02:44,708
Speaker 5: defense for the Houston Texans opposite Will Anderson.

54
00:02:45,828 --> 00:02:47,788
Speaker 3: All Right, Rep Sheet, thank you that we're going to

55
00:02:47,868 --> 00:02:49,508
Speaker 3: touch on the Texans here on GMFB.

56
00:02:49,668 --> 00:02:50,348
Speaker 4: Deservedly so.

57
00:02:50,388 --> 00:02:53,628
Speaker 3: They've been very busy in free agency. But to your point,

58
00:02:53,708 --> 00:02:55,628
Speaker 3: let's put a bow on what happened in Baltimore in

59
00:02:55,628 --> 00:02:59,788
Speaker 3: their backfield. Derek Lamar Junior Henry, that's his middle name.

60
00:02:59,828 --> 00:03:02,188
Speaker 3: It works now with the Baltimore Ravens. What do we

61
00:03:02,228 --> 00:03:05,348
Speaker 3: make of Derek Lamar Junior Henry. Your excuse me as

62
00:03:05,388 --> 00:03:06,348
Speaker 3: a Baltimore Raven.

63
00:03:06,228 --> 00:03:09,108
Speaker 7: Derek Henry played against the Ravens in the twenty nineteen

64
00:03:09,188 --> 00:03:10,828
Speaker 7: Divisional Round and kicked their butt.

65
00:03:10,868 --> 00:03:12,348
Speaker 6: They then had the Pro Bowl.

66
00:03:12,428 --> 00:03:15,348
Speaker 7: In the entire Raven staff in front office got a

67
00:03:15,388 --> 00:03:17,388
Speaker 7: chance to look at Derick Henry up close. And then

68
00:03:17,428 --> 00:03:20,588
Speaker 7: they go to international play this year and Derek Henry

69
00:03:20,628 --> 00:03:21,468
Speaker 7: is still terrified.

70
00:03:21,468 --> 00:03:23,588
Speaker 6: Then this was like a match made over the course

71
00:03:23,628 --> 00:03:24,788
Speaker 6: of five years.

72
00:03:24,828 --> 00:03:27,708
Speaker 7: It was just what is this this specimen, and how

73
00:03:27,708 --> 00:03:31,028
Speaker 7: do we get our hands on them? Finally, Derick Henry

74
00:03:31,308 --> 00:03:33,668
Speaker 7: is a Baltimore raven. After all those times they've played

75
00:03:33,708 --> 00:03:35,708
Speaker 7: against each other, in all those great games he's had.

76
00:03:35,788 --> 00:03:37,348
Speaker 6: I'll tell you, I love this fit.

77
00:03:37,428 --> 00:03:39,868
Speaker 7: I love it for not only the team and the roster,

78
00:03:39,988 --> 00:03:42,708
Speaker 7: and for Todd Monkin and for Lamar. I get caught

79
00:03:42,708 --> 00:03:45,108
Speaker 7: into these cliches sometimes, but I love it for the city.

80
00:03:45,228 --> 00:03:49,148
Speaker 7: I think that the way that Derick Henry plays so tough,

81
00:03:49,268 --> 00:03:52,748
Speaker 7: so big, just a brawling body and kind of a

82
00:03:52,868 --> 00:03:55,708
Speaker 7: unicorn at the position. These days, now you get your scatbacks,

83
00:03:55,788 --> 00:03:58,388
Speaker 7: you get your different type of all purpose guys. Derek

84
00:03:58,428 --> 00:03:59,988
Speaker 7: Henry is give me the ball up the gut and

85
00:04:00,028 --> 00:04:02,148
Speaker 7: I'm gonna run over somebody, and it does it with

86
00:04:02,188 --> 00:04:03,908
Speaker 7: such grace and such power.

87
00:04:04,068 --> 00:04:06,268
Speaker 6: I think this was a huge jolt for a team.

88
00:04:06,628 --> 00:04:09,428
Speaker 7: They got to the AFC Championship game and was knocking

89
00:04:09,468 --> 00:04:12,748
Speaker 7: on the door and if Flagerius Snee doesn't knock the

90
00:04:12,748 --> 00:04:15,228
Speaker 7: ball loose from Jay Flowers, we don't know what happens,

91
00:04:15,268 --> 00:04:18,388
Speaker 7: but we do know this, in key moments, they abandoned

92
00:04:18,388 --> 00:04:20,588
Speaker 7: the run all together. They were throwing the ball in

93
00:04:20,628 --> 00:04:22,628
Speaker 7: the second half that entire I don't know if they

94
00:04:22,668 --> 00:04:25,748
Speaker 7: abandoned the run if they have Derrick Henry in the backfield,

95
00:04:25,748 --> 00:04:27,508
Speaker 7: who they know could pick up four yards, we know

96
00:04:27,588 --> 00:04:29,708
Speaker 7: could pick up five hours, who we know can throw

97
00:04:29,828 --> 00:04:32,628
Speaker 7: a jump pass touchdown, which is exactly what he did

98
00:04:32,628 --> 00:04:35,788
Speaker 7: against them in the playoffs in twenty nineteen. Derrick Henry

99
00:04:35,788 --> 00:04:38,388
Speaker 7: has kicked the Ravens butts time and time again. Now

100
00:04:38,508 --> 00:04:40,108
Speaker 7: he's gonna be kicking him up for them. I love

101
00:04:40,148 --> 00:04:42,708
Speaker 7: this signing. It's a great fit and at that price.

102
00:04:43,188 --> 00:04:45,388
Speaker 7: Look Henry, thirty year old running back, whatever he is.

103
00:04:46,028 --> 00:04:48,308
Speaker 7: I understand it seems like it's not as much as Sakuan,

104
00:04:48,508 --> 00:04:50,388
Speaker 7: but at that price it actually makes a lot of

105
00:04:50,388 --> 00:04:51,388
Speaker 7: sense for both sides.

106
00:04:51,508 --> 00:04:53,028
Speaker 6: Good signing, Baltimore.

107
00:04:52,668 --> 00:04:55,308
Speaker 8: Great fit, and Kyle yesterday was giving us a little

108
00:04:55,348 --> 00:04:56,948
Speaker 8: bit of trivia question, so I have one for you

109
00:04:56,988 --> 00:04:59,828
Speaker 8: guys today. There have been two other Titans players that

110
00:04:59,868 --> 00:05:02,988
Speaker 8: have played their entire career in Tennessee or Houston and

111
00:05:03,028 --> 00:05:06,308
Speaker 8: then been able to go over to Baltimore in their thirties.

112
00:05:06,548 --> 00:05:08,388
Speaker 8: Can you name those two players?

113
00:05:08,548 --> 00:05:08,788
Speaker 1: Wow?

114
00:05:09,588 --> 00:05:15,188
Speaker 7: Late Steve McNair, Yes, Steve McNair and one more, Derek Mason.

115
00:05:19,028 --> 00:05:20,788
Speaker 8: I know you were going to get it.

116
00:05:20,788 --> 00:05:21,188
Speaker 6: I love it.

117
00:05:21,348 --> 00:05:23,988
Speaker 8: Those two guys did the same thing in their thirties

118
00:05:24,028 --> 00:05:26,388
Speaker 8: going over to Baltimore having success. I look at this

119
00:05:26,468 --> 00:05:28,788
Speaker 8: for Derek Henry in a lot of people look at

120
00:05:28,788 --> 00:05:30,948
Speaker 8: this and say, without watching the film or watching what

121
00:05:30,988 --> 00:05:33,188
Speaker 8: Derek Henry did this past year, well he's a running

122
00:05:33,188 --> 00:05:35,828
Speaker 8: back who's falling off. Derrek Henry led all running backs

123
00:05:35,868 --> 00:05:39,628
Speaker 8: and rushes attempted last year. He was second in rushing

124
00:05:39,708 --> 00:05:42,268
Speaker 8: yards behind Christian McCaffrey. So don't just sit there and

125
00:05:42,268 --> 00:05:44,908
Speaker 8: say something about this guy. He gets double digit touchdowns,

126
00:05:45,028 --> 00:05:47,508
Speaker 8: you feel like every single season. But I think, to

127
00:05:47,548 --> 00:05:49,828
Speaker 8: your point shirts, what he means to this offense and

128
00:05:49,988 --> 00:05:52,788
Speaker 8: just the mentality and way he wins the ball. You're

129
00:05:52,828 --> 00:05:54,668
Speaker 8: gonna look in the backfield and there's gonna be Derek

130
00:05:54,708 --> 00:05:57,628
Speaker 8: Henry standing in the shotgun next to Lamar Jackson. And

131
00:05:57,668 --> 00:06:00,148
Speaker 8: now when Lamar Jackson puts the ball in, Derrik Henry's gut.

132
00:06:00,308 --> 00:06:02,308
Speaker 8: You got to decide, are you going downhill on Derek

133
00:06:02,348 --> 00:06:04,828
Speaker 8: Henry but risking the fact that Lamar pulls it and

134
00:06:04,868 --> 00:06:07,388
Speaker 8: now he's getting on the edge. We saw a lot

135
00:06:07,428 --> 00:06:09,708
Speaker 8: more from the passing game from Lamar Jackson last year

136
00:06:09,708 --> 00:06:12,548
Speaker 8: with the edition of Zay Flowers. Odell Beckham Junior is

137
00:06:12,548 --> 00:06:14,708
Speaker 8: still a free agent, so who knows whether he'll be

138
00:06:14,788 --> 00:06:16,588
Speaker 8: back in the fold for them. But when you have

139
00:06:16,628 --> 00:06:18,348
Speaker 8: a guy like Derrick Henry to be able to hand

140
00:06:18,348 --> 00:06:20,628
Speaker 8: the ball off and trust that he can get it done,

141
00:06:20,788 --> 00:06:23,868
Speaker 8: it changes things. I look at this for Titans fans

142
00:06:23,868 --> 00:06:26,788
Speaker 8: as well. And AJ Brown was in his prime, he

143
00:06:26,868 --> 00:06:29,668
Speaker 8: was coming up on a contract, You traded him to Philly,

144
00:06:29,668 --> 00:06:32,108
Speaker 8: and you watch him go to Philly and just go

145
00:06:32,188 --> 00:06:34,908
Speaker 8: off as a star receiver for them. Now Derrick Henry,

146
00:06:34,908 --> 00:06:37,028
Speaker 8: I know, they got a ton of mileage out of

147
00:06:37,028 --> 00:06:39,148
Speaker 8: Derrick Henry in a ton of success. But if you

148
00:06:39,188 --> 00:06:41,428
Speaker 8: watch Derrick Henry now go to Baltimore and they have

149
00:06:41,508 --> 00:06:43,908
Speaker 8: a lot of success and Derrick Henry goes for over

150
00:06:43,948 --> 00:06:46,068
Speaker 8: a thousand yards and their team that is playing at

151
00:06:46,068 --> 00:06:48,148
Speaker 8: the end of the season has to be a sickening

152
00:06:48,188 --> 00:06:50,388
Speaker 8: feeling of just seeing this type of guy, what he's

153
00:06:50,428 --> 00:06:52,828
Speaker 8: meant to that city, and now that he's moving on,

154
00:06:53,148 --> 00:06:55,228
Speaker 8: and the fact that he's going to a great Baltimore

155
00:06:55,348 --> 00:06:57,188
Speaker 8: Ravens team. To your point, that just couldn't get over

156
00:06:57,188 --> 00:06:59,708
Speaker 8: the hump. I can't wait to see him in that uniform.

157
00:06:59,828 --> 00:07:01,068
Speaker 8: I said yesterday, I wonder if he is hes going

158
00:07:01,108 --> 00:07:03,508
Speaker 8: to go back to his college number, that old school

159
00:07:03,588 --> 00:07:06,708
Speaker 8: number two in the backfield for the Baltimore Ravens. I mean,

160
00:07:06,908 --> 00:07:09,668
Speaker 8: you look at what rap sheet talked about Danil Hunter

161
00:07:09,748 --> 00:07:11,948
Speaker 8: Derek Henry both signing. I don't know if there's two

162
00:07:11,948 --> 00:07:15,388
Speaker 8: guys that look better in a uniform than those two guys, arms, sides,

163
00:07:15,428 --> 00:07:17,828
Speaker 8: everything that they have, unbelievable total pack.

164
00:07:18,668 --> 00:07:19,748
Speaker 6: Quick question career wise.

165
00:07:19,748 --> 00:07:21,828
Speaker 7: So now he's at this point in his career thirties,

166
00:07:22,188 --> 00:07:23,708
Speaker 7: I'm sure there were other offers.

167
00:07:24,188 --> 00:07:25,868
Speaker 6: He chooses Baltimore.

168
00:07:25,988 --> 00:07:27,628
Speaker 7: Do you think that's because he's like, it's time for

169
00:07:27,628 --> 00:07:29,788
Speaker 7: me to get my ring or is this not really

170
00:07:29,908 --> 00:07:31,508
Speaker 7: in the heads of every player. I know you had

171
00:07:31,548 --> 00:07:33,308
Speaker 7: a long journey before he finally got you.

172
00:07:33,428 --> 00:07:35,948
Speaker 8: I definitely think it is, and there's no guarantee no

173
00:07:35,948 --> 00:07:37,588
Speaker 8: matter what team to go to, that I'm gonna go

174
00:07:37,588 --> 00:07:39,868
Speaker 8: get it, but I think you give yourself a chance,

175
00:07:39,868 --> 00:07:41,588
Speaker 8: and I think for Derek Henry, you're looking at it,

176
00:07:41,588 --> 00:07:43,468
Speaker 8: you're like, all right, I was in Tennessee, like a

177
00:07:43,508 --> 00:07:45,788
Speaker 8: lot of my time there, we weren't winning many games.

178
00:07:45,788 --> 00:07:48,428
Speaker 8: For Derrick Henry, they felt like they were truly competing

179
00:07:48,468 --> 00:07:50,828
Speaker 8: for a Super Bowl. And there's a different feeling on

180
00:07:50,868 --> 00:07:52,628
Speaker 8: that team in that locker room where you're like, you

181
00:07:52,628 --> 00:07:54,668
Speaker 8: know what, we have a legit chance to make it

182
00:07:54,708 --> 00:07:56,828
Speaker 8: and actually win the Super Bowl. We have a quarterback

183
00:07:56,908 --> 00:07:59,708
Speaker 8: who's a former MVP of Lamar Jackson. Two times you

184
00:07:59,828 --> 00:08:01,708
Speaker 8: have a shot, So I think that means a ton

185
00:08:01,748 --> 00:08:03,988
Speaker 8: to him, and you're going to a really good organization

186
00:08:04,828 --> 00:08:05,548
Speaker 8: doing it the right way.

187
00:08:05,588 --> 00:08:07,428
Speaker 3: I still think he's got wheels left on him. I

188
00:08:07,748 --> 00:08:10,108
Speaker 3: had that game in London and just watching him walk

189
00:08:10,148 --> 00:08:13,948
Speaker 3: around where the team stayed the Titans at the time.

190
00:08:14,068 --> 00:08:16,068
Speaker 3: He's not this guy that limbers around with like ice

191
00:08:16,108 --> 00:08:18,148
Speaker 3: bags on his knees and he walks into the production

192
00:08:18,268 --> 00:08:20,668
Speaker 3: room looking all like he still looks like he has

193
00:08:20,828 --> 00:08:23,628
Speaker 3: years and miles left on those legs, which is great

194
00:08:23,668 --> 00:08:25,428
Speaker 3: for the Ravens. Did you see what our guys at

195
00:08:25,508 --> 00:08:26,828
Speaker 3: Jimmy's Seafood.

196
00:08:26,388 --> 00:08:28,588
Speaker 4: Did for Jimmy's.

197
00:08:28,868 --> 00:08:31,188
Speaker 3: Jimmy makes an offer and says, camp, you know, we

198
00:08:31,268 --> 00:08:33,668
Speaker 3: hope Derek Henry's coming to Baltimore. Then they up it

199
00:08:33,708 --> 00:08:37,108
Speaker 3: and they say free crab cakes for life, for life,

200
00:08:37,308 --> 00:08:39,748
Speaker 3: and he says, I'm pulling up for show, and then

201
00:08:39,828 --> 00:08:43,028
Speaker 3: Jimmy says, the King has spoken. They all they like committed.

202
00:08:43,108 --> 00:08:46,228
Speaker 3: It was a It was an Instagram handshake. And now

203
00:08:46,388 --> 00:08:48,228
Speaker 3: I mean Jimmy's. They might be out some money, but

204
00:08:48,268 --> 00:08:49,868
Speaker 3: at least they got King Henry and Baltimore.

205
00:08:49,908 --> 00:08:51,628
Speaker 8: I'm gonna have some time off in the next few months.

206
00:08:51,628 --> 00:08:53,308
Speaker 8: I'm gonna have to make a trip to Baltimore, down

207
00:08:53,388 --> 00:08:54,828
Speaker 8: OTA's or something and go grab lunch.

208
00:08:55,548 --> 00:08:57,588
Speaker 4: You have to bring, have to bring Derek get the

209
00:08:57,588 --> 00:08:58,188
Speaker 4: free crab.

210
00:08:58,188 --> 00:08:59,388
Speaker 1: Of course I'm going.

211
00:08:59,628 --> 00:09:01,508
Speaker 4: Well, I'm just parting the Kyle.

212
00:09:01,588 --> 00:09:03,548
Speaker 3: We know that if a city offered you free chips

213
00:09:03,548 --> 00:09:06,308
Speaker 3: and salsa life, you would be there in a heartbeat.

214
00:09:06,388 --> 00:09:07,228
Speaker 4: So we know that.

215
00:09:07,308 --> 00:09:09,068
Speaker 1: Why do you think I'm away from the table right now.

216
00:09:09,108 --> 00:09:10,548
Speaker 1: I got the offer, I got them the jet. It

217
00:09:10,668 --> 00:09:13,868
Speaker 1: just happened. It's funny you say that, Jamie, but listen,

218
00:09:13,348 --> 00:09:16,868
Speaker 1: this is obviously big news. If you're out there in

219
00:09:16,908 --> 00:09:19,268
Speaker 1: them Angry Run streets like I am all the time.

220
00:09:19,268 --> 00:09:20,948
Speaker 1: We had to scramble the jets. Yesterday we had an

221
00:09:20,988 --> 00:09:23,788
Speaker 1: emergency meeting of the Angry Runs Council to address Derrick

222
00:09:23,828 --> 00:09:26,468
Speaker 1: Henry going to the Baltimore Ravens and guys, this is

223
00:09:26,508 --> 00:09:30,068
Speaker 1: a beautiful, beautiful thing because listen, speaking strictly in the

224
00:09:30,068 --> 00:09:32,508
Speaker 1: Angry Runs, Dereck Henry did not win one last year.

225
00:09:32,628 --> 00:09:35,148
Speaker 1: He did not. He went wired and wired. Will Levis

226
00:09:35,148 --> 00:09:37,508
Speaker 1: won one on the Titans. Derrick Henry did not. Meanwhile,

227
00:09:37,588 --> 00:09:39,708
Speaker 1: Najie Harris is taking over. He's got next. And yet

228
00:09:39,748 --> 00:09:42,308
Speaker 1: I feel like Henry going to the Ravens and the

229
00:09:42,348 --> 00:09:44,748
Speaker 1: Angry Run senses. You know, it's a little bit of

230
00:09:44,828 --> 00:09:48,148
Speaker 1: like a Stella got her groove back. Remember that, you know,

231
00:09:48,308 --> 00:09:51,988
Speaker 1: Stella's not really feeling it's not like coming into her prime.

232
00:09:52,068 --> 00:09:54,508
Speaker 1: Then she goes down to the Caribbeans, she meets Ty

233
00:09:54,628 --> 00:09:57,268
Speaker 1: Diggs and Tate Diggs is, I would like to dance

234
00:09:57,308 --> 00:09:59,508
Speaker 1: with you, like, all right, come on now, I feel

235
00:09:59,508 --> 00:10:02,788
Speaker 1: like that's Lamar and Harbaugh saying that to Derrick Henry.

236
00:10:02,948 --> 00:10:04,948
Speaker 1: Let me just give you a little scenari in which

237
00:10:04,948 --> 00:10:06,468
Speaker 1: you are in the AFC North or anywhere on the

238
00:10:06,468 --> 00:10:10,228
Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens schedule, you play outside linebacker. I don't know, Jason.

239
00:10:10,228 --> 00:10:11,908
Speaker 1: Maybe you're one of those little fast guys who plays

240
00:10:11,908 --> 00:10:14,068
Speaker 1: in the secondary and Lamar is a you know, in

241
00:10:14,108 --> 00:10:16,388
Speaker 1: the under the center and he does some crazy fake

242
00:10:16,468 --> 00:10:19,388
Speaker 1: motion jet sweep thing and then he tosses it out

243
00:10:19,388 --> 00:10:22,948
Speaker 1: wide to Derrick Henry, who has pat ricard in front

244
00:10:22,988 --> 00:10:26,148
Speaker 1: of him in space. So if you can even navigate

245
00:10:26,188 --> 00:10:29,268
Speaker 1: through the pat ricard problem, and it's a substantial one,

246
00:10:29,548 --> 00:10:32,028
Speaker 1: then your reward is Dereck Henry. I feel like he's

247
00:10:32,028 --> 00:10:34,068
Speaker 1: going to get his grooveback, and there's some juice. There's

248
00:10:34,108 --> 00:10:37,148
Speaker 1: some more nasty, as if they needed more nasty. I

249
00:10:37,228 --> 00:10:39,708
Speaker 1: am looking forward to the Ravens in the playoffs next year.

250
00:10:39,868 --> 00:10:42,028
Speaker 1: Whoever is trying to tackle that man get through recard.

251
00:10:42,028 --> 00:10:43,548
Speaker 1: Good luck, you're gonna need it.

252
00:10:43,868 --> 00:10:45,108
Speaker 3: We knew you were going to be thrilled about this

253
00:10:45,108 --> 00:10:46,828
Speaker 3: once we put you on a padded cell for the day.

254
00:10:47,108 --> 00:10:48,188
Speaker 4: Kyle Brand, thank you so much.

255
00:10:48,228 --> 00:10:48,588
Speaker 1: Talk to you.

256
00:10:51,908 --> 00:10:54,948
Speaker 4: Too, Okay, exactly good.

257
00:10:55,468 --> 00:10:58,908
Speaker 3: The free agency frenzy it continues today eleven am Eastern.

258
00:10:58,988 --> 00:11:02,148
Speaker 3: All the latest news from NFL ME The Insiders Analyst reporters.

259
00:11:02,428 --> 00:11:04,268
Speaker 4: Everyone's been working across.

260
00:11:03,908 --> 00:11:06,388
Speaker 3: The league live free agency coverage on NFL Network and

261
00:11:06,468 --> 00:11:09,428
Speaker 3: the plus NFL Plus Free Agency Frenzy is today.

262
00:11:09,508 --> 00:11:11,988
Speaker 4: It continues right after GMAB at eleven.

263
00:11:11,748 --> 00:11:16,228
Speaker 3: O'clock, all right time for Whiteboard Wednesday. The Ravens are

264
00:11:16,348 --> 00:11:20,108
Speaker 3: prepared to have a brand new King Henry in Baltimore

265
00:11:20,228 --> 00:11:23,148
Speaker 3: right behind their Ragning MVP and Lamar Jackson. Those two

266
00:11:23,228 --> 00:11:25,508
Speaker 3: have the potential to be one of the most lethal

267
00:11:25,668 --> 00:11:28,788
Speaker 3: quarterback running back duos in the NFL in twenty twenty four.

268
00:11:28,828 --> 00:11:30,588
Speaker 3: But if things go well, they could land on an

269
00:11:30,628 --> 00:11:34,388
Speaker 3: all time list the scariest quarterback running back duo of

270
00:11:34,668 --> 00:11:35,508
Speaker 3: all time.

271
00:11:35,708 --> 00:11:37,588
Speaker 4: Peter is all right.

272
00:11:37,628 --> 00:11:40,028
Speaker 7: So for years, John Elway would get all the way

273
00:11:40,028 --> 00:11:41,348
Speaker 7: to the Super Bowl and he had to be the

274
00:11:41,348 --> 00:11:43,588
Speaker 7: best quarterback in football. They'd get to the Super Bowl,

275
00:11:43,588 --> 00:11:46,428
Speaker 7: and whether it was Montana and Jerry Rice, or whether

276
00:11:46,468 --> 00:11:48,388
Speaker 7: it was Washington, whether it was the Giants, they would

277
00:11:48,388 --> 00:11:50,188
Speaker 7: come up just short. And then he got this guy

278
00:11:50,268 --> 00:11:52,828
Speaker 7: in the backfield with him, Terrell Davis. I'm going John

279
00:11:52,908 --> 00:11:56,428
Speaker 7: Elwing Tourell Davis. Terrell Davis might have been the best

280
00:11:56,468 --> 00:11:59,148
Speaker 7: running back in football for a four year span, and

281
00:11:59,228 --> 00:12:01,948
Speaker 7: John Elway did not get those two rings until he

282
00:12:02,028 --> 00:12:04,948
Speaker 7: had TD behind him. Tote in the rock about Terrell

283
00:12:05,028 --> 00:12:08,148
Speaker 7: Davis's incredible Super Bowl and as we're showing him getting

284
00:12:08,148 --> 00:12:11,628
Speaker 7: handoffs from Bobby Brister, we don't want to minimize his career.

285
00:12:11,708 --> 00:12:13,588
Speaker 7: It's not just he was in the shadow of Lway.

286
00:12:13,828 --> 00:12:15,988
Speaker 7: Terrell Davis a Hall of Famer in his own right,

287
00:12:16,228 --> 00:12:18,308
Speaker 7: a dear colleague of ours for many years.

288
00:12:18,668 --> 00:12:20,188
Speaker 6: Loved him as a Bronco.

289
00:12:19,868 --> 00:12:23,268
Speaker 7: In the old uniforms and then in the new uniforms.

290
00:12:23,548 --> 00:12:26,148
Speaker 7: He won rings in both of them. Terrell Davis, John

291
00:12:26,188 --> 00:12:28,228
Speaker 7: Elway awesome duo. I don't know if there was ever

292
00:12:28,268 --> 00:12:29,348
Speaker 7: a more dynamic one.

293
00:12:29,388 --> 00:12:29,508
Speaker 1: Two.

294
00:12:29,548 --> 00:12:32,268
Speaker 7: Remember that Broncos team that second to are run. They

295
00:12:32,308 --> 00:12:34,588
Speaker 7: start off the season like thirteen and zero, lost to

296
00:12:34,628 --> 00:12:36,428
Speaker 7: the Giants in a game, and then eventually went on

297
00:12:36,668 --> 00:12:38,268
Speaker 7: and rottled it off in the playoffs and beat the

298
00:12:38,268 --> 00:12:39,348
Speaker 7: Falcons and blew them out.

299
00:12:39,468 --> 00:12:40,788
Speaker 6: So Lway and TD, those.

300
00:12:40,628 --> 00:12:44,068
Speaker 7: Are my guys, tough as nails and amazing individual careers

301
00:12:44,228 --> 00:12:47,988
Speaker 7: as individuals, but then of course as teammates and at tandem.

302
00:12:48,068 --> 00:12:48,428
Speaker 6: Love them.

303
00:12:48,468 --> 00:12:50,268
Speaker 8: I love that when you talk about like the transition

304
00:12:50,388 --> 00:12:52,428
Speaker 8: to new uniforms, when you're one of the best players.

305
00:12:52,428 --> 00:12:53,908
Speaker 8: You want to go out and get that new cool

306
00:12:53,988 --> 00:12:57,188
Speaker 8: uniform and it's gonna be Elway or TD. And in

307
00:12:57,188 --> 00:13:01,028
Speaker 8: that vein, I'm going with Air McNair and Eddie George.

308
00:13:01,068 --> 00:13:04,268
Speaker 8: You talk about scary duels from a quarterback, from a

309
00:13:04,428 --> 00:13:07,108
Speaker 8: on and back. Eddie George comes in, he's six to

310
00:13:07,108 --> 00:13:09,948
Speaker 8: two hundred and forty pounds, and we're talking about Derek

311
00:13:09,988 --> 00:13:12,748
Speaker 8: Henry Lamar Jackson. Derreck Henry comes in, he's sixty three,

312
00:13:12,788 --> 00:13:15,388
Speaker 8: two hundred and forty eight pounds. So you talk about

313
00:13:15,468 --> 00:13:18,388
Speaker 8: I couldn't imagine being on defense, and Eddie George is

314
00:13:18,468 --> 00:13:21,068
Speaker 8: running downhill. But in the very next play, Aaron McNair

315
00:13:21,228 --> 00:13:23,988
Speaker 8: makes three people miss in the backfield and then launches

316
00:13:24,028 --> 00:13:26,788
Speaker 8: won forty yards down the field. These guys played together

317
00:13:26,868 --> 00:13:29,108
Speaker 8: for eight seasons. They had the third most wins during

318
00:13:29,108 --> 00:13:31,468
Speaker 8: that time. They were just so fun and electric. And

319
00:13:31,508 --> 00:13:34,428
Speaker 8: I remember being a kid when those Tightens uniforms first hit,

320
00:13:34,468 --> 00:13:36,468
Speaker 8: and it was like people became fans of the Tights

321
00:13:36,508 --> 00:13:38,588
Speaker 8: just because they thought the uniforms were really cool. And

322
00:13:38,628 --> 00:13:40,828
Speaker 8: you got a chance to watch these two guys go

323
00:13:40,948 --> 00:13:43,508
Speaker 8: at it, and they were fantastic and so fun. To watch,

324
00:13:43,508 --> 00:13:44,068
Speaker 8: so I love it.

325
00:13:44,148 --> 00:13:46,708
Speaker 4: I really liked that combination as well. Kyle, this is

326
00:13:46,908 --> 00:13:49,508
Speaker 4: right where you lived. Man, what are you hitting us with?

327
00:13:49,748 --> 00:13:51,628
Speaker 1: Yeah? You know what, though, I'm gonna zag I actually

328
00:13:51,628 --> 00:13:54,388
Speaker 1: think the scariest running back of all time is Barry Sanders,

329
00:13:54,468 --> 00:13:56,788
Speaker 1: because I think guys, you could be scared of getting

330
00:13:56,788 --> 00:14:00,668
Speaker 1: embarrassed trying to tackle him, getting injured, getting cut, getting fired,

331
00:14:00,708 --> 00:14:03,028
Speaker 1: whatever it may be. I still think that the reason

332
00:14:03,108 --> 00:14:04,428
Speaker 1: John Lynch had to wait so long to get in

333
00:14:04,428 --> 00:14:05,948
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame is because of Barry Sanders. If

334
00:14:05,948 --> 00:14:08,108
Speaker 1: you pull up Barry Sanders highlights on YouTube, John Lynch

335
00:14:08,188 --> 00:14:10,028
Speaker 1: is in half of them, and it's not pretty. However,

336
00:14:10,068 --> 00:14:12,588
Speaker 1: I'm going to make a little statement here. My tandem

337
00:14:12,628 --> 00:14:15,268
Speaker 1: is Barry and Scott Mitchell, and I'm gonna pull from

338
00:14:15,268 --> 00:14:16,988
Speaker 1: the headlines, and for the love of God, don't put

339
00:14:17,068 --> 00:14:19,108
Speaker 1: us on Instagram. I'm just taking a moment to soapbox

340
00:14:19,148 --> 00:14:22,108
Speaker 1: about Scott Mitchell. If you have not read Dan Pompey's

341
00:14:22,148 --> 00:14:24,788
Speaker 1: piece about Scott Mitchell in The Athletic and you followed

342
00:14:24,788 --> 00:14:27,708
Speaker 1: football in the nineteen nineties, I highly recommend it. It's

343
00:14:27,748 --> 00:14:30,628
Speaker 1: a fascinating thing in which Scott Mitchell says, hey, I'm

344
00:14:30,668 --> 00:14:33,908
Speaker 1: done being your punchline for the Barry Sanders era. I'm

345
00:14:33,908 --> 00:14:36,428
Speaker 1: not here for it. I'm not gonna do it. Scott Mitchell,

346
00:14:36,508 --> 00:14:38,948
Speaker 1: thirty years ago in nineteen ninety four, was the crown

347
00:14:39,068 --> 00:14:41,228
Speaker 1: jewel of free agency. If we were doing free Asian

348
00:14:41,268 --> 00:14:43,508
Speaker 1: Frenzday in nineteen ninety four, all we would talk about

349
00:14:43,548 --> 00:14:46,068
Speaker 1: is Scott Mitchell. Every single coach wanted him with adult

350
00:14:46,108 --> 00:14:47,988
Speaker 1: from the Dolphins where he was back in a van reno.

351
00:14:48,188 --> 00:14:51,148
Speaker 1: They wooed him, they begged him, and eventually they gave

352
00:14:51,228 --> 00:14:54,948
Speaker 1: him the second highest signing bonus in NFL history five

353
00:14:55,028 --> 00:14:58,148
Speaker 1: million dollars in nineteen ninety four, bigger than Reggie White's

354
00:14:58,188 --> 00:15:00,388
Speaker 1: the year before, to go to the Packers. No, Scott

355
00:15:00,388 --> 00:15:02,948
Speaker 1: Mitchell was not the perfect quarterback. Yes, he made mistakes,

356
00:15:03,068 --> 00:15:05,508
Speaker 1: but he has calling out everybody from Jeff Daniels to

357
00:15:05,548 --> 00:15:08,588
Speaker 1: Eminem say enough with the bleep and kicking me around.

358
00:15:08,668 --> 00:15:10,988
Speaker 1: I haven't had it anymore. I had spent a lot

359
00:15:11,028 --> 00:15:13,388
Speaker 1: of my youth watching Scott Mitchell. I respected his game,

360
00:15:13,428 --> 00:15:15,148
Speaker 1: I respected the way he went about it. So just

361
00:15:15,188 --> 00:15:17,268
Speaker 1: for this one segment, I want to say Barry, of course,

362
00:15:17,348 --> 00:15:19,148
Speaker 1: but Scott Mitchell I respected your game, and I like

363
00:15:19,188 --> 00:15:21,628
Speaker 1: the way you handle yourself. I don't care very good, Kyle.

364
00:15:21,708 --> 00:15:24,068
Speaker 3: I mean any opportunity to jump on a soapbox that

365
00:15:24,068 --> 00:15:26,628
Speaker 3: evolves Barry Sanders, Kyle's going to take it. Kyle hank Tight,

366
00:15:26,708 --> 00:15:28,668
Speaker 3: have your second one ready. There are a handful of

367
00:15:28,668 --> 00:15:31,828
Speaker 3: free agents who have signed with division rivals this week,

368
00:15:31,868 --> 00:15:35,068
Speaker 3: including players like Saquon Barkley, Patrick Queen, Aaron.

369
00:15:34,868 --> 00:15:36,188
Speaker 4: Jones with the purple sombrero.

370
00:15:36,308 --> 00:15:39,908
Speaker 3: Now your favorite division rival free agent signing Peter in

371
00:15:40,068 --> 00:15:40,948
Speaker 3: NFL history.

372
00:15:41,188 --> 00:15:43,508
Speaker 7: Okay, so some of these are personal, all right. I

373
00:15:43,588 --> 00:15:47,628
Speaker 7: broke this news oh in twenty fifteen, so I have

374
00:15:47,668 --> 00:15:48,828
Speaker 7: a real heart for this one.

375
00:15:48,868 --> 00:15:50,548
Speaker 6: And when it happened, it was a huge deal.

376
00:15:50,988 --> 00:15:53,308
Speaker 7: We were talking about an All Pro running back and

377
00:15:53,348 --> 00:15:56,468
Speaker 7: a three time Pro Bowler who felt disrespected by his team,

378
00:15:56,628 --> 00:16:01,388
Speaker 7: Dumarco Murray signing with the Philadelphia Eagles from the Dallas Cowboys.

379
00:16:01,388 --> 00:16:03,508
Speaker 7: I know it seems like it's distant memory, and I

380
00:16:03,508 --> 00:16:06,308
Speaker 7: think I remember that at the time, it was huge.

381
00:16:06,588 --> 00:16:09,908
Speaker 7: DeMarco Murray was coming off a great run as the

382
00:16:09,988 --> 00:16:12,628
Speaker 7: Dallas Cowboys Number one, and where's he gonna go?

383
00:16:13,028 --> 00:16:16,868
Speaker 6: Of all places he chooses to go to Chip Kelly's

384
00:16:16,988 --> 00:16:19,508
Speaker 6: spread offense where he would go to Philly. But one

385
00:16:19,508 --> 00:16:20,588
Speaker 6: of the main reasons.

386
00:16:20,348 --> 00:16:25,068
Speaker 7: Why his quarterback, Sam Bradford from college.

387
00:16:25,028 --> 00:16:26,588
Speaker 6: Was the quarterback with the Eagles.

388
00:16:26,628 --> 00:16:29,148
Speaker 7: Wow, all this stuff sounds just like it's like, what

389
00:16:29,308 --> 00:16:33,148
Speaker 7: like Sam Bradford and Chip Kelly and the Eagles and yeah.

390
00:16:33,028 --> 00:16:33,748
Speaker 6: DeMarco Murray.

391
00:16:33,748 --> 00:16:36,268
Speaker 7: And at the time this was massive. Howie Roseman making

392
00:16:36,268 --> 00:16:39,588
Speaker 7: a big splash. Then he was the offensive player of

393
00:16:39,588 --> 00:16:41,908
Speaker 7: the Year in twenty fourteen, he led the NFL in

394
00:16:41,988 --> 00:16:45,508
Speaker 7: rushing yards and touchdowns. The next offseason jumps to the

395
00:16:45,548 --> 00:16:48,748
Speaker 7: division rival hated Eagles. It was massive at the time,

396
00:16:48,908 --> 00:16:50,588
Speaker 7: and I was lucky to have the quick Twitter fingers

397
00:16:50,588 --> 00:16:52,468
Speaker 7: at the time. Big moment in my career got me

398
00:16:52,468 --> 00:16:55,228
Speaker 7: the job on Good Morning Football a Mark News Peter.

399
00:16:55,108 --> 00:16:57,748
Speaker 3: Real quick question like how did you become so close

400
00:16:57,748 --> 00:17:00,268
Speaker 3: with DeMarco Murray? Was it like through representation or coaching

401
00:17:00,348 --> 00:17:00,708
Speaker 3: or whatever?

402
00:17:00,748 --> 00:17:01,508
Speaker 4: Like how does that work?

403
00:17:01,548 --> 00:17:05,148
Speaker 6: We don't sources, source.

404
00:17:06,828 --> 00:17:10,508
Speaker 7: Sources, sources never kiss and say I was somehow involved

405
00:17:10,548 --> 00:17:12,588
Speaker 7: in this one, and I wasn't breaking every news piece.

406
00:17:12,468 --> 00:17:14,828
Speaker 4: But this one, mm, okay, he got the green light.

407
00:17:14,948 --> 00:17:17,468
Speaker 8: To marcol Murray aka the kid came to Tennessee. After

408
00:17:17,588 --> 00:17:20,388
Speaker 8: that stay and Philly. The one thing you love about

409
00:17:20,388 --> 00:17:22,268
Speaker 8: those rivals. I get to New England and the one

410
00:17:22,308 --> 00:17:24,508
Speaker 8: thing I had played against the Jets before, but it

411
00:17:24,708 --> 00:17:27,548
Speaker 8: just hit different when I got to New England Jets week.

412
00:17:28,308 --> 00:17:29,988
Speaker 8: Bill would have it up there and would always be

413
00:17:30,148 --> 00:17:33,188
Speaker 8: New England Patriots versus Jets. It would always say MF.

414
00:17:33,468 --> 00:17:33,788
Speaker 6: Jets.

415
00:17:33,828 --> 00:17:36,188
Speaker 8: That just lets you know where the disdain is for

416
00:17:36,348 --> 00:17:37,268
Speaker 8: the New York Jets.

417
00:17:37,428 --> 00:17:38,148
Speaker 1: So you think if a.

418
00:17:38,188 --> 00:17:40,628
Speaker 8: Player is gonna jump ship, I'm going with the guy.

419
00:17:40,908 --> 00:17:44,028
Speaker 8: Darrell Reeves revis Island when he was a New York Jets.

420
00:17:44,108 --> 00:17:47,068
Speaker 8: He called Bill Belichick a jerk on ESPN. He also said,

421
00:17:47,228 --> 00:17:48,908
Speaker 8: you know what, Tom Brady is in a hole on

422
00:17:48,988 --> 00:17:51,908
Speaker 8: the field sometimes, and this is a rivalry that they

423
00:17:51,948 --> 00:17:54,508
Speaker 8: don't like each other. Not only did he leave the

424
00:17:54,588 --> 00:17:57,388
Speaker 8: Jets and join the Patriots, he won a Super Bowl

425
00:17:57,468 --> 00:17:59,308
Speaker 8: with the Patriots and then went back to the New

426
00:17:59,388 --> 00:18:02,268
Speaker 8: York Jets. So when you talk about division rivals, teams

427
00:18:02,348 --> 00:18:04,348
Speaker 8: not like each other, and the Darrell res the best

428
00:18:04,548 --> 00:18:06,788
Speaker 8: cornerback of his generation, one of the best to ever

429
00:18:06,948 --> 00:18:10,148
Speaker 8: be out there on the football field. Him switching between

430
00:18:10,188 --> 00:18:13,468
Speaker 8: these two teams and absolutely balling for the Patriots, helping

431
00:18:13,588 --> 00:18:16,588
Speaker 8: dictate their entire defense on a Super Bowl one, and

432
00:18:16,628 --> 00:18:19,228
Speaker 8: then he goes back with his old teammates. He's like, yeah, fellas,

433
00:18:19,308 --> 00:18:20,868
Speaker 8: look what I got. I got me a ring. Now

434
00:18:20,948 --> 00:18:22,348
Speaker 8: we can just go out there and play and have fun.

435
00:18:22,388 --> 00:18:23,588
Speaker 8: So I'm going with Drel Reeves.

436
00:18:23,748 --> 00:18:25,308
Speaker 3: That's a really good one. I had forgotten all that

437
00:18:25,388 --> 00:18:28,308
Speaker 3: beef that he had the chit chat beforehand. Kyle, where

438
00:18:28,348 --> 00:18:30,748
Speaker 3: do you take us? Maybe a division that is dismantled

439
00:18:30,788 --> 00:18:32,668
Speaker 3: by now or change. So I feel like you can

440
00:18:32,748 --> 00:18:34,348
Speaker 3: dip your toe in history at this point.

441
00:18:34,508 --> 00:18:36,108
Speaker 1: I can, but I'm actually gonna dip it in the

442
00:18:36,148 --> 00:18:39,468
Speaker 1: same pool that Jason did. January third, two thousand, it

443
00:18:39,588 --> 00:18:41,708
Speaker 1: was announced that Bill Belichick was going to be the

444
00:18:41,748 --> 00:18:44,188
Speaker 1: head coach of the New York Jets. January fourth, two thousand.

445
00:18:44,188 --> 00:18:45,788
Speaker 1: Now we're gonna have a press conference. This is gonna

446
00:18:45,788 --> 00:18:48,428
Speaker 1: be great. We're gonna announce Belichick's the future. This guy

447
00:18:48,628 --> 00:18:51,508
Speaker 1: shows up and does the ropendope and literally writes on

448
00:18:51,588 --> 00:18:55,948
Speaker 1: a cocktail napkin, I resign as HC of the nyj

449
00:18:56,188 --> 00:18:59,788
Speaker 1: He didn't even write out the words head coach h C. Belichick, Jets,

450
00:18:59,908 --> 00:19:02,748
Speaker 1: Pats it was an all timer. If the media existed

451
00:19:02,828 --> 00:19:04,948
Speaker 1: the way it did now back then, it would have

452
00:19:04,948 --> 00:19:07,028
Speaker 1: been a full mushroom cloud over the New York Post

453
00:19:07,068 --> 00:19:09,028
Speaker 1: that probably was. Anyway, I'm gonna be the head coach

454
00:19:09,028 --> 00:19:11,508
Speaker 1: of the Jets, Psych, I'm actually gonna be head coach

455
00:19:11,548 --> 00:19:13,548
Speaker 1: of the Patriots, your rival, and we're gonna go and

456
00:19:13,588 --> 00:19:15,588
Speaker 1: win six Super Bowls. You know what the best part is, guys,

457
00:19:15,628 --> 00:19:17,988
Speaker 1: I'm sure. Yeah. He was asked about it in The Dynasty,

458
00:19:18,388 --> 00:19:22,068
Speaker 1: this Patriots documentary, and he had great, really really interesting,

459
00:19:22,188 --> 00:19:24,468
Speaker 1: colorful insight into it. They said, what was going on

460
00:19:24,588 --> 00:19:26,308
Speaker 1: that day, Bill, and he goes, I don't have anything

461
00:19:26,388 --> 00:19:28,148
Speaker 1: doubt about that, And that was it, Like he says

462
00:19:28,188 --> 00:19:31,148
Speaker 1: about every single thing in the whole doc that's my moment, Belichick,

463
00:19:31,228 --> 00:19:32,748
Speaker 1: from the Jets to the Pats.

464
00:19:33,228 --> 00:19:35,828
Speaker 3: Cole, you were on one yesterday about heel turn and

465
00:19:35,908 --> 00:19:36,988
Speaker 3: how we shouldn't be using it.

466
00:19:37,108 --> 00:19:39,308
Speaker 4: For some that might qualify as a top five peel

467
00:19:39,348 --> 00:19:39,908
Speaker 4: turn right there.

468
00:19:40,108 --> 00:19:42,388
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's Hollywood Hogan bash at the Beach in nineteen

469
00:19:42,428 --> 00:19:44,668
Speaker 1: ninety six. I will completely take it. I wish that

470
00:19:44,828 --> 00:19:47,908
Speaker 1: Napkin still existed. I wish he was in a museum somewhere.

471
00:19:48,148 --> 00:19:50,788
Speaker 1: I wish he was in Canton somewhere. What happened to

472
00:19:50,908 --> 00:19:54,148
Speaker 1: that napkin? You know, Peter, they probably have spread out

473
00:19:54,148 --> 00:19:56,308
Speaker 1: for the reporters to stuff their faces with bear claws

474
00:19:56,348 --> 00:19:58,308
Speaker 1: and stuff. I bet that napkin was part of that.

475
00:19:58,868 --> 00:20:01,828
Speaker 7: I think Darren Ravel has that napkin somewhere. I was

476
00:20:01,988 --> 00:20:04,348
Speaker 7: selling at like a live auction. Yeah, I think we're

477
00:20:04,668 --> 00:20:07,708
Speaker 7: is the guy who relics. I'm gonna go with that one.

478
00:20:07,828 --> 00:20:08,868
Speaker 6: I bet that's his collection.

479
00:20:09,068 --> 00:20:10,948
Speaker 4: Kyle, It's a good one. Keep watching the Dynasty. It's

480
00:20:10,988 --> 00:20:12,348
Speaker 4: giving a lot of good content coming up.

481
00:20:12,628 --> 00:20:14,788
Speaker 3: The Steelers have made some big moves this week, but

482
00:20:15,068 --> 00:20:18,028
Speaker 3: is it enough to compete in a loaded AFC North

483
00:20:18,068 --> 00:20:20,868
Speaker 3: that has Burrow returning and King Henry involved?

484
00:20:20,908 --> 00:20:36,868
Speaker 2: Now, Good Morning Football.

485
00:20:38,028 --> 00:20:40,148
Speaker 6: Every year we go through it, it's called the frenzy.

486
00:20:40,508 --> 00:20:43,028
Speaker 6: I like to hashtag my tweets the frenzy.

487
00:20:43,508 --> 00:20:46,588
Speaker 7: It's free agent Frenzy. The tampering window opens on Monday.

488
00:20:46,708 --> 00:20:50,028
Speaker 7: Players can officially sign today, and there's a flurr of moves,

489
00:20:50,028 --> 00:20:52,668
Speaker 7: and sometimes you're like, so many moves are happening at once.

490
00:20:52,748 --> 00:20:57,148
Speaker 6: How do I keep track? Some moves on paper? You say,

491
00:20:57,188 --> 00:20:59,508
Speaker 6: that's great, they don't work out others.

492
00:21:00,988 --> 00:21:01,228
Speaker 9: They do.

493
00:21:02,628 --> 00:21:03,268
Speaker 6: I am gonna go.

494
00:21:03,388 --> 00:21:05,628
Speaker 7: Position by position in some key spots and give you

495
00:21:05,748 --> 00:21:09,948
Speaker 7: my free agent all fit team from the past few days.

496
00:21:09,988 --> 00:21:10,508
Speaker 6: What's that mean?

497
00:21:10,868 --> 00:21:14,228
Speaker 7: The players who I think landed in the perfect spots

498
00:21:14,588 --> 00:21:16,628
Speaker 7: this week. And I'm gonna start with the quarterback position.

499
00:21:17,308 --> 00:21:19,828
Speaker 7: My best fit for any of the free agent quarterbacks

500
00:21:20,308 --> 00:21:22,028
Speaker 7: is a guy who's going back to where he played

501
00:21:22,068 --> 00:21:25,108
Speaker 7: last year. I think Baker Mayfield staying put in Tampa

502
00:21:25,148 --> 00:21:26,828
Speaker 7: Bay as a home run.

503
00:21:27,308 --> 00:21:29,068
Speaker 6: This was awesome. Last year.

504
00:21:29,108 --> 00:21:32,228
Speaker 7: The Buccaneers had no expectations. It was the post Tom

505
00:21:32,268 --> 00:21:34,908
Speaker 7: Brady era. Mike Evans was saying before the season, He's

506
00:21:34,988 --> 00:21:37,428
Speaker 7: done negotiating, He'll be somewhere else at the end of

507
00:21:37,468 --> 00:21:40,708
Speaker 7: the season. And yet Baker Mayfield comes in and completely

508
00:21:41,228 --> 00:21:42,268
Speaker 7: turns things around.

509
00:21:42,308 --> 00:21:43,348
Speaker 6: They started out red hot.

510
00:21:43,428 --> 00:21:45,948
Speaker 7: They beat the Minnesota Vikings in Minnesota in Week one,

511
00:21:46,428 --> 00:21:47,748
Speaker 7: and they went through a loll They.

512
00:21:47,708 --> 00:21:49,388
Speaker 6: Lost a bunch of games in a row. It looked

513
00:21:49,428 --> 00:21:51,268
Speaker 6: like the bloom was off the rose.

514
00:21:51,748 --> 00:21:53,228
Speaker 7: And then Baker found a way to get to that

515
00:21:53,388 --> 00:21:55,908
Speaker 7: second gear and get them not only in the playoffs,

516
00:21:56,148 --> 00:21:59,868
Speaker 7: but then to win a playoff game. Baker Mayfield an

517
00:21:59,988 --> 00:22:03,348
Speaker 7: awesome Tampa Bay buccaneer. He fits the culture of the

518
00:22:03,428 --> 00:22:06,628
Speaker 7: team perfectly. He's got all the weapons around him with

519
00:22:06,828 --> 00:22:09,748
Speaker 7: Godwin and Evans and the young running back for Shad White,

520
00:22:10,068 --> 00:22:11,868
Speaker 7: and he goes back to where he belongs. I said

521
00:22:11,868 --> 00:22:14,508
Speaker 7: this earlier on in the week. On Monday, there was

522
00:22:14,548 --> 00:22:17,068
Speaker 7: a real chance that Baker was going somewhere else. There

523
00:22:17,108 --> 00:22:19,828
Speaker 7: were some hairy moments in these negotiations where Baker said,

524
00:22:20,028 --> 00:22:22,188
Speaker 7: I want to test my market on on the value

525
00:22:22,228 --> 00:22:23,908
Speaker 7: on the market. I want to see what I'm worth

526
00:22:23,908 --> 00:22:25,588
Speaker 7: and if you're not going to pay me x, I

527
00:22:25,708 --> 00:22:27,028
Speaker 7: might entertain those offers.

528
00:22:27,948 --> 00:22:28,148
Speaker 1: Well.

529
00:22:28,388 --> 00:22:31,428
Speaker 7: Right before the start of the legal tampering window, the

530
00:22:31,508 --> 00:22:34,188
Speaker 7: Buccaneers made sure to keep their guy in Tampa. I

531
00:22:34,388 --> 00:22:36,628
Speaker 7: love this fit for Baker. I love this fit for

532
00:22:36,668 --> 00:22:39,828
Speaker 7: the Buccaneers. I'm so happy that it continues for at

533
00:22:39,908 --> 00:22:40,668
Speaker 7: least the next.

534
00:22:40,508 --> 00:22:41,068
Speaker 6: Couple of years.

535
00:22:41,588 --> 00:22:43,828
Speaker 7: Quarterback best fit out of all these signings is the

536
00:22:43,828 --> 00:22:45,468
Speaker 7: guy who went back to where he was.

537
00:22:45,868 --> 00:22:49,668
Speaker 6: It's Baker Mayfield. Next up is the running back position.

538
00:22:50,108 --> 00:22:52,548
Speaker 7: And I thought on Monday it was wild running back

539
00:22:52,588 --> 00:22:54,508
Speaker 7: going here, running back going here, running back going there,

540
00:22:54,748 --> 00:22:58,348
Speaker 7: And then on Tuesday, I think this is such an

541
00:22:58,428 --> 00:23:02,068
Speaker 7: awesome fit. I think it's the team. I think it's

542
00:23:02,108 --> 00:23:04,508
Speaker 7: the culture of that team. I also think it's it's

543
00:23:04,548 --> 00:23:06,988
Speaker 7: the city. This is a team that has gotten so

544
00:23:07,428 --> 00:23:11,028
Speaker 7: close the last few years, the Baltimore Ravens. They were

545
00:23:11,068 --> 00:23:13,628
Speaker 7: the hottest theme in football in nineteen. This guy crushed

546
00:23:13,628 --> 00:23:16,268
Speaker 7: their dreams. We go back four years later, they get

547
00:23:16,388 --> 00:23:18,428
Speaker 7: back to the Big Dance. They win their playoff game

548
00:23:18,468 --> 00:23:22,148
Speaker 7: against Houston. They then host the Chiefs and they completely

549
00:23:22,268 --> 00:23:24,788
Speaker 7: abandon the run in the second half. Are they abandoning

550
00:23:24,828 --> 00:23:26,868
Speaker 7: the run if this guy's at running back, I'm not

551
00:23:27,028 --> 00:23:29,508
Speaker 7: so sure. I love Derek Henry as a player. I

552
00:23:29,548 --> 00:23:31,108
Speaker 7: think he's a future Hall of Famer. I really do

553
00:23:31,388 --> 00:23:34,108
Speaker 7: think he's the best running back of his generation. And

554
00:23:34,188 --> 00:23:36,948
Speaker 7: you might say, yeah, well look at McCaffrey. Now, yeah mcafren,

555
00:23:36,948 --> 00:23:39,868
Speaker 7: Now you're talking about since twenty eighteen, this guy has

556
00:23:39,908 --> 00:23:42,828
Speaker 7: been putting a big season after big season, and does

557
00:23:42,868 --> 00:23:44,988
Speaker 7: he still have anything left in the tank. Last year,

558
00:23:45,148 --> 00:23:47,988
Speaker 7: in the final game of the Titan season, next Gen

559
00:23:48,068 --> 00:23:50,388
Speaker 7: Stats clocked this guy. He had a run that was

560
00:23:50,468 --> 00:23:53,348
Speaker 7: twenty two miles per hour. Still go, he could still

561
00:23:53,428 --> 00:23:55,188
Speaker 7: move and he can still give you that stiff arm,

562
00:23:55,308 --> 00:23:55,948
Speaker 7: right to the face.

563
00:23:56,228 --> 00:23:58,948
Speaker 6: I love this look. Sakwan goes to the Eagles. We'll

564
00:23:58,988 --> 00:24:02,868
Speaker 6: see Tony Pollard to the Titans. We'll see this one

565
00:24:02,908 --> 00:24:03,308
Speaker 6: week one.

566
00:24:03,348 --> 00:24:05,508
Speaker 7: Give me Derek Henry Lamar Jackson in a back und.

567
00:24:05,548 --> 00:24:07,388
Speaker 6: I know this is gonna work. I know this is

568
00:24:07,468 --> 00:24:09,588
Speaker 6: gonna be sensational. I love this fit.

569
00:24:10,068 --> 00:24:12,268
Speaker 7: And if Derrick Henry can get a Super Bowl ring

570
00:24:12,508 --> 00:24:15,828
Speaker 7: with Lamar Jackson by his side, how cool would that

571
00:24:15,988 --> 00:24:18,428
Speaker 7: be for one of the greatest running backs of all Peter?

572
00:24:18,508 --> 00:24:19,268
Speaker 4: How great is it gonna be?

573
00:24:19,268 --> 00:24:21,388
Speaker 3: The team intros in Baltimore? Like, I think we just

574
00:24:21,428 --> 00:24:23,628
Speaker 3: sent Lamar and Derek out of the tunnel and that's it.

575
00:24:23,908 --> 00:24:24,828
Speaker 4: Like he's closed.

576
00:24:25,028 --> 00:24:27,868
Speaker 6: Let's go, Let's go down to the offensive line.

577
00:24:28,868 --> 00:24:33,108
Speaker 7: Jonah Jackson signing with the La Rams is my call.

578
00:24:33,668 --> 00:24:36,228
Speaker 7: I love this dude right here, big boy number seventy

579
00:24:36,348 --> 00:24:37,868
Speaker 7: three goes to the Razzies.

580
00:24:37,948 --> 00:24:39,268
Speaker 6: Like, who's Jonah.

581
00:24:39,068 --> 00:24:43,468
Speaker 7: Jackson is just a wall, just an enormous offensive guard.

582
00:24:44,108 --> 00:24:46,188
Speaker 7: And I was talking to the Rams guys after the

583
00:24:46,908 --> 00:24:47,908
Speaker 7: signing was announced.

584
00:24:48,228 --> 00:24:50,788
Speaker 6: Here's the deal. It's his fifth NFL.

585
00:24:50,588 --> 00:24:53,708
Speaker 7: Season, all right, He's six ' four, three hundred and

586
00:24:53,788 --> 00:24:56,628
Speaker 7: twenty pounds. He gave up just two total sacks his

587
00:24:56,748 --> 00:24:59,268
Speaker 7: last two years. And they have him on one side,

588
00:24:59,508 --> 00:25:01,628
Speaker 7: and they've got Dots in the other guard who they

589
00:25:01,668 --> 00:25:03,988
Speaker 7: got from Pittsburgh on the other. And with the center,

590
00:25:04,388 --> 00:25:08,468
Speaker 7: that's a thousand pounds of just giant men ready to

591
00:25:08,748 --> 00:25:11,828
Speaker 7: maul and create holes for Kieren Williams. And oh yeah,

592
00:25:11,868 --> 00:25:16,108
Speaker 7: by the way, keeping Matthew Stafford up straight. Jonah Jackson

593
00:25:16,188 --> 00:25:19,028
Speaker 7: had a big market. He chooses to go to the Rams,

594
00:25:19,388 --> 00:25:21,508
Speaker 7: not a household name, and yet you look what the

595
00:25:21,588 --> 00:25:23,708
Speaker 7: Lion's success was. A lot of that had to do

596
00:25:23,828 --> 00:25:26,108
Speaker 7: with not only Piney Sewell, not only to do with

597
00:25:26,188 --> 00:25:29,468
Speaker 7: Taylor Decker, but the guys inside. Jonah Jackson was amazing

598
00:25:29,548 --> 00:25:31,588
Speaker 7: last year for them. He's been a very good Lion.

599
00:25:31,668 --> 00:25:33,828
Speaker 7: He's had some injuries at times, but I think with

600
00:25:33,908 --> 00:25:36,068
Speaker 7: the Rams you're gonna see immediate results.

601
00:25:36,148 --> 00:25:36,908
Speaker 6: I love the fit.

602
00:25:37,308 --> 00:25:39,388
Speaker 7: Just keep Matthew Stafford upright and give the Rams a

603
00:25:39,468 --> 00:25:43,188
Speaker 7: chance to breathe. All right, Next position, we're going defense,

604
00:25:43,308 --> 00:25:46,068
Speaker 7: and I'm going the best fit for all the defensive

605
00:25:46,148 --> 00:25:49,188
Speaker 7: line inside guys is going to be Christian Wilkins to

606
00:25:49,268 --> 00:25:49,668
Speaker 7: the Raiders.

607
00:25:49,708 --> 00:25:50,428
Speaker 6: I said it yesterday.

608
00:25:50,468 --> 00:25:53,988
Speaker 7: Has ever been a more Raiders signing than Christian Wilkins.

609
00:25:54,148 --> 00:25:55,948
Speaker 7: Antonio Pierce comes out. He's like, we're going back to

610
00:25:55,988 --> 00:25:58,388
Speaker 7: the Raiders' way. We're going back to Al Davis. Might

611
00:25:58,468 --> 00:26:00,828
Speaker 7: have to go back to some things that you know,

612
00:26:01,188 --> 00:26:04,508
Speaker 7: might be a little bit unsavory at times for our opponents. Well,

613
00:26:04,548 --> 00:26:07,148
Speaker 7: guess what that is? What he's all about. He's a

614
00:26:07,228 --> 00:26:10,108
Speaker 7: tremendous player. Don't get it wrong. He is a tremendous player.

615
00:26:10,228 --> 00:26:13,988
Speaker 7: He's also a tremendous agitator. He loves getting under your skin.

616
00:26:14,268 --> 00:26:16,668
Speaker 7: Josh Allen's spoken about it. Plenty of people who have

617
00:26:16,748 --> 00:26:19,508
Speaker 7: been in this building on our show have talked about it.

618
00:26:19,748 --> 00:26:22,228
Speaker 7: It is a pain in the butt to face Christian Wilkins.

619
00:26:22,428 --> 00:26:25,028
Speaker 7: And then he's going to do something afterwards, some extracurriculars

620
00:26:25,188 --> 00:26:26,028
Speaker 7: to get in your head.

621
00:26:26,468 --> 00:26:30,988
Speaker 6: He Max Crosby, Tyree Wilson. We're talking. You've got the

622
00:26:31,028 --> 00:26:31,908
Speaker 6: big boy inside.

623
00:26:32,188 --> 00:26:34,468
Speaker 7: You've got all of these guys that are coming together,

624
00:26:34,548 --> 00:26:37,148
Speaker 7: and all of a sudden, the Raiders defensive line is

625
00:26:37,228 --> 00:26:38,628
Speaker 7: one of the best in football.

626
00:26:39,068 --> 00:26:39,948
Speaker 6: Love what the Raiders did.

627
00:26:40,028 --> 00:26:43,108
Speaker 7: And Jason, you so smartly mentioned this yesterday. He goes

628
00:26:43,148 --> 00:26:45,828
Speaker 7: to Vegas and you're like, all right, took the money.

629
00:26:45,868 --> 00:26:46,628
Speaker 6: He goes to Vegas.

630
00:26:46,668 --> 00:26:47,548
Speaker 8: I guess no.

631
00:26:48,108 --> 00:26:50,628
Speaker 7: His best season was with Patrick Graham as his defensive

632
00:26:50,668 --> 00:26:53,548
Speaker 7: coordinator in Miami. There's a familiarity there. Patrick Graham is

633
00:26:53,588 --> 00:26:55,548
Speaker 7: now the defensive coordinator in Vegas.

634
00:26:55,748 --> 00:26:56,428
Speaker 6: I love the fit.

635
00:26:56,708 --> 00:26:59,708
Speaker 7: Christian Wilkins, Congratulations, he got paid and I think he

636
00:26:59,788 --> 00:27:02,748
Speaker 7: went to the perfect place. All right, So that's the

637
00:27:03,148 --> 00:27:04,708
Speaker 7: How about Dan? How about off the edge?

638
00:27:04,868 --> 00:27:05,308
Speaker 6: What you got?

639
00:27:05,548 --> 00:27:07,708
Speaker 7: How about our guy, Brian Burns. I gotta say I

640
00:27:07,788 --> 00:27:10,388
Speaker 7: went big yesterday. Giants fans are like hitting me up,

641
00:27:10,468 --> 00:27:12,708
Speaker 7: like really, really, Brian burg You're talking about Brian Burns

642
00:27:12,788 --> 00:27:13,668
Speaker 7: like he was Lawrence Taylor.

643
00:27:13,708 --> 00:27:16,228
Speaker 6: I get maybe I went a little overboard, but.

644
00:27:16,348 --> 00:27:18,428
Speaker 7: You see some of the moves that Brian Burns has

645
00:27:18,508 --> 00:27:20,308
Speaker 7: off the edge, and the fact that he's only twenty

646
00:27:20,388 --> 00:27:22,668
Speaker 7: five years old, and now you say you're putting him

647
00:27:22,668 --> 00:27:25,628
Speaker 7: on a defense with Thibodeau on one side, with Dexter

648
00:27:25,748 --> 00:27:29,388
Speaker 7: Lawrence in the middle, and the opportunities are endless. Brian

649
00:27:29,428 --> 00:27:32,028
Speaker 7: Burns to the Giants, a fantastic fit.

650
00:27:32,588 --> 00:27:34,228
Speaker 6: Brian Burns fits that New.

651
00:27:34,188 --> 00:27:36,708
Speaker 7: York Giants mantra of let's stop the run, let's get

652
00:27:36,748 --> 00:27:39,668
Speaker 7: to the quarterback, let's run the ball and let's win

653
00:27:39,788 --> 00:27:42,188
Speaker 7: some football games in the trenches. They've gotten away from

654
00:27:42,228 --> 00:27:45,868
Speaker 7: that in recent years. Burns brings that. There's been footage online,

655
00:27:45,948 --> 00:27:48,708
Speaker 7: go on your Twitter, go on Instagram. But Burns is

656
00:27:48,748 --> 00:27:51,628
Speaker 7: spin moves. This guy is a technician. And again I

657
00:27:51,708 --> 00:27:56,348
Speaker 7: mentioned this, he is only twenty five years old. I

658
00:27:56,428 --> 00:27:58,788
Speaker 7: thought this was a major bargain what they got him

659
00:27:58,828 --> 00:28:00,508
Speaker 7: for a second and a fifth And yes they paid

660
00:28:00,588 --> 00:28:03,708
Speaker 7: him the money, but to me for what the Rams

661
00:28:03,708 --> 00:28:05,988
Speaker 7: were offering to get Brian Burns a couple of years ago,

662
00:28:06,228 --> 00:28:08,748
Speaker 7: and now for what the Giants got him for. Hey,

663
00:28:08,988 --> 00:28:11,828
Speaker 7: don't blame him for Carolina struggles. The last two seasons.

664
00:28:11,908 --> 00:28:14,988
Speaker 7: That team has been an absolute mess. Brian Burns he

665
00:28:15,028 --> 00:28:16,908
Speaker 7: has never said a bad word about that franchise and

666
00:28:16,988 --> 00:28:18,788
Speaker 7: he has been awesome. Bring him to the Big Apple.

667
00:28:18,908 --> 00:28:21,268
Speaker 7: Let's see him do some work, all right? And now

668
00:28:21,668 --> 00:28:24,628
Speaker 7: the linebacker spot. This one came out yesterday and after

669
00:28:24,668 --> 00:28:26,748
Speaker 7: all that rumors of like is he going to Seattle

670
00:28:26,748 --> 00:28:29,948
Speaker 7: where he's gonna be with Mike McDonald Patrick Queen signs

671
00:28:29,988 --> 00:28:33,508
Speaker 7: with the Steelers, really really the Steelers, and.

672
00:28:33,588 --> 00:28:34,308
Speaker 8: I kind of like it.

673
00:28:34,628 --> 00:28:36,748
Speaker 6: You're not gonna pay me put me on the franchise?

674
00:28:36,828 --> 00:28:37,868
Speaker 6: Tag all this stuff.

675
00:28:38,108 --> 00:28:40,668
Speaker 7: Let me go to our arch rivals and let me

676
00:28:40,788 --> 00:28:43,468
Speaker 7: face you two times a year. But beyond that, to

677
00:28:43,548 --> 00:28:46,348
Speaker 7: be able to play with not only TJ. Watt, but

678
00:28:46,468 --> 00:28:48,188
Speaker 7: to play with high Smith as well. And now you

679
00:28:48,268 --> 00:28:49,988
Speaker 7: put him in the middle. And there's such a rich

680
00:28:50,388 --> 00:28:53,108
Speaker 7: tradition of middle linebackers for.

681
00:28:53,148 --> 00:28:54,148
Speaker 6: The Pittsburgh Steelers.

682
00:28:54,188 --> 00:28:56,628
Speaker 7: You go through the years, whether it be the Lamberton

683
00:28:56,668 --> 00:28:59,948
Speaker 7: Ham era or even recently with Levon Kirkland and Jason

684
00:28:59,988 --> 00:29:02,828
Speaker 7: Gilden and all those guys in the linebacker position, there

685
00:29:02,908 --> 00:29:07,148
Speaker 7: is such a rich tradition of great linebacker play in Pittsburgh.

686
00:29:07,228 --> 00:29:10,068
Speaker 7: Patrick Queen, so happy for him. He finally gets paid

687
00:29:10,108 --> 00:29:10,988
Speaker 7: and he gets his respect.

688
00:29:11,028 --> 00:29:13,188
Speaker 6: Guys, I go to you at the table. It's my

689
00:29:13,268 --> 00:29:16,588
Speaker 6: all fit team. Guys that just made sense and teams

690
00:29:16,628 --> 00:29:18,228
Speaker 6: that made sense for them. I love it.

691
00:29:18,308 --> 00:29:20,868
Speaker 8: And you start at that quarterback position. Baker Mayfield, he

692
00:29:20,948 --> 00:29:24,508
Speaker 8: stays home. Now, Kirk Cousins he joins the division. I'm

693
00:29:24,548 --> 00:29:27,628
Speaker 8: fascinated to see which team comes out of that division

694
00:29:27,668 --> 00:29:29,308
Speaker 8: for the playoff. Those two are going to match up

695
00:29:29,308 --> 00:29:31,428
Speaker 8: twice a heear. I can't wait to see those two All.

696
00:29:31,388 --> 00:29:34,708
Speaker 3: Agitator team might go to the Raiders defensively. It is

697
00:29:34,748 --> 00:29:37,068
Speaker 3: a little terrifying to consider that Tyrie Wilson is it

698
00:29:37,148 --> 00:29:37,428
Speaker 3: kind of a.

699
00:29:37,428 --> 00:29:38,868
Speaker 4: Blank slate when it comes to the NFL.

700
00:29:38,988 --> 00:29:41,348
Speaker 3: Yet now the people that are influencing his behavior on

701
00:29:41,348 --> 00:29:43,308
Speaker 3: the field are Grivin Wilkins at Max Crosby.

702
00:29:43,428 --> 00:29:45,188
Speaker 7: My god, yeah, and the guy inside is that guy

703
00:29:45,228 --> 00:29:46,508
Speaker 7: Koontz who I doesn't watch.

704
00:29:47,388 --> 00:29:48,708
Speaker 8: Was a mild up last year.

705
00:29:48,708 --> 00:29:49,268
Speaker 6: He showed up.

706
00:29:49,388 --> 00:29:52,588
Speaker 7: They're super excited guys, all fit team. I love all

707
00:29:52,628 --> 00:29:53,668
Speaker 7: of these fits.

708
00:29:53,428 --> 00:29:55,028
Speaker 4: For each one of these a very good job. We

709
00:29:55,068 --> 00:29:56,668
Speaker 4: appreciate it till the come on our show.

710
00:29:57,228 --> 00:29:59,948
Speaker 3: Quarterbacks, they're on the move. Running backs, David on the move.

711
00:30:00,028 --> 00:30:02,868
Speaker 3: But let's go under center. Which signing's got our attention?

712
00:30:03,068 --> 00:30:06,268
Speaker 3: We're gonna check in. Kyle was thinking about this topic.

713
00:30:20,748 --> 00:30:25,428
Speaker 3: Patrick Queen joins superstars within that Pittsburgh defense back in

714
00:30:25,508 --> 00:30:28,788
Speaker 3: October ahead of a week five Raven Steelers game, Patrick

715
00:30:28,828 --> 00:30:31,308
Speaker 3: Queen was actually asked if there's any extra emotion that

716
00:30:31,508 --> 00:30:34,948
Speaker 3: he touches on when he plays in such a heated rivalry.

717
00:30:36,788 --> 00:30:39,148
Speaker 9: Anytime you know, you join this organization and they talk

718
00:30:39,148 --> 00:30:41,148
Speaker 9: about this game, it's the game that defines you, that

719
00:30:41,228 --> 00:30:44,348
Speaker 9: makes you a Raven and when I was on their

720
00:30:44,388 --> 00:30:47,308
Speaker 9: sideline my rookie year, Mike Tom was looking at me,

721
00:30:47,988 --> 00:30:49,788
Speaker 9: yelling at me, You're not a Raven. You're not a raven.

722
00:30:50,148 --> 00:30:52,388
Speaker 9: You're not supposed to be there. You're not one of them.

723
00:30:52,508 --> 00:30:54,548
Speaker 9: So every time I play them, it's.

724
00:30:54,428 --> 00:30:58,508
Speaker 4: Something personal, something personal. This way comes.

725
00:30:58,588 --> 00:31:01,948
Speaker 3: The Steelers have been busy this free agency frenzy season,

726
00:31:02,228 --> 00:31:04,948
Speaker 3: adding Queen to their defense and of course Russ Wilson

727
00:31:05,228 --> 00:31:08,548
Speaker 3: kind of a spicy addition we didn't see coming, potentially.

728
00:31:08,508 --> 00:31:11,788
Speaker 4: Their next starting quarterback. It's going to make can he

729
00:31:11,868 --> 00:31:12,908
Speaker 4: Pickett fight for something?

730
00:31:13,188 --> 00:31:15,108
Speaker 3: What do we think of the decision so far made

731
00:31:15,268 --> 00:31:18,468
Speaker 3: by Pittsburgh, whether it be on defense or offense.

732
00:31:18,548 --> 00:31:19,828
Speaker 4: Do you take the defense first?

733
00:31:19,948 --> 00:31:21,828
Speaker 8: Well, it starts with Russ and you just said at

734
00:31:21,868 --> 00:31:23,628
Speaker 8: them getting him, he's going to be the start. He's

735
00:31:23,668 --> 00:31:24,868
Speaker 8: going to be the leader of that team.

736
00:31:24,908 --> 00:31:25,148
Speaker 9: I think.

737
00:31:25,828 --> 00:31:27,108
Speaker 8: I think he's going to be the start. I think

738
00:31:27,188 --> 00:31:29,348
Speaker 8: him and Kenny Pickett battling out. I think at the

739
00:31:29,428 --> 00:31:30,828
Speaker 8: end of the day, Russ is going to be the

740
00:31:30,868 --> 00:31:32,588
Speaker 8: guy that comes out on the other end of this

741
00:31:32,668 --> 00:31:35,308
Speaker 8: guy won the Super Bowl. He's been extremely successful. And

742
00:31:35,468 --> 00:31:37,308
Speaker 8: you said it when we were discussing it, earlier in

743
00:31:37,388 --> 00:31:39,468
Speaker 8: the week. This is a guy that threw for twenty

744
00:31:39,508 --> 00:31:42,508
Speaker 8: six touchdowns last year only eight interception, So you can

745
00:31:42,548 --> 00:31:44,988
Speaker 8: say whatever you want to say. I think Russell Wilson

746
00:31:45,068 --> 00:31:47,148
Speaker 8: is going to be the starting quarterback for the Pittsburgh Sailers,

747
00:31:47,148 --> 00:31:48,908
Speaker 8: and he's going to give them the best chance to

748
00:31:48,988 --> 00:31:51,908
Speaker 8: be successful. The addition to Patrick Queen is huge because

749
00:31:51,908 --> 00:31:53,668
Speaker 8: in the middle of that defense you have Cole Holcom.

750
00:31:53,908 --> 00:31:55,628
Speaker 8: On one side you have Patrick Queen, and on the

751
00:31:55,668 --> 00:31:58,188
Speaker 8: outside of high Smith you have what you have Hayward

752
00:31:58,228 --> 00:32:00,508
Speaker 8: and Ogan Joebi in the middle. So you have defensively

753
00:32:00,628 --> 00:32:03,908
Speaker 8: now front seven that can compete with anybody. And I

754
00:32:04,028 --> 00:32:06,028
Speaker 8: think what's kind of flown under the radar was the

755
00:32:06,108 --> 00:32:08,188
Speaker 8: trade of Deontay Johnson. You get rid of Deontay, you

756
00:32:08,268 --> 00:32:11,788
Speaker 8: bring in a Dante Jackson to cornerback from the Carolina Panthers.

757
00:32:11,948 --> 00:32:13,908
Speaker 8: So if Patrick Peterson a guy who's been released who's

758
00:32:13,908 --> 00:32:17,508
Speaker 8: gonna be in studio with us tomorrow and Friday, they're

759
00:32:17,548 --> 00:32:20,268
Speaker 8: replacing him with a guy Dante Jackson's been a good

760
00:32:20,348 --> 00:32:22,868
Speaker 8: starter for the Panthers throughout his career, so I think

761
00:32:22,868 --> 00:32:25,788
Speaker 8: they've made the necessary moves to compete in that division,

762
00:32:25,988 --> 00:32:28,348
Speaker 8: which is continuing to get better. But the biggest move

763
00:32:28,428 --> 00:32:30,988
Speaker 8: you're adding Russell Wilson and Peter said it last segment

764
00:32:31,188 --> 00:32:33,108
Speaker 8: for a very low salary and you get a chance

765
00:32:33,148 --> 00:32:35,428
Speaker 8: to compete with a quarterback that has won games at

766
00:32:35,468 --> 00:32:35,868
Speaker 8: this level.

767
00:32:35,908 --> 00:32:37,708
Speaker 4: Hease, let me ask you this. You bring in Russell

768
00:32:37,708 --> 00:32:38,868
Speaker 4: Wilson not for the money.

769
00:32:39,148 --> 00:32:41,748
Speaker 3: Do you think he has to be like I'm the leader,

770
00:32:41,908 --> 00:32:44,108
Speaker 3: I'm the locker room guy or can't someone else in

771
00:32:44,148 --> 00:32:46,748
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh take that on to them. Russ doesn't have to

772
00:32:46,828 --> 00:32:48,788
Speaker 3: be kind of like the spotlight on him guy.

773
00:32:48,948 --> 00:32:50,828
Speaker 8: I think to a certain extent, he's walking into a

774
00:32:50,868 --> 00:32:53,788
Speaker 8: team in an organization that has leadership. Cam Hayward has

775
00:32:53,828 --> 00:32:56,308
Speaker 8: been there forever as a leader on that side of

776
00:32:56,308 --> 00:32:58,628
Speaker 8: the ball. TJ. Watt, But I think as the quarterback

777
00:32:58,708 --> 00:33:01,428
Speaker 8: when you're talking offense and you need to have a

778
00:33:01,588 --> 00:33:04,348
Speaker 8: guy that's vocal in that in a huddle, everybody looks

779
00:33:04,428 --> 00:33:05,788
Speaker 8: to him and there just like they can look him

780
00:33:05,788 --> 00:33:07,748
Speaker 8: in the eyes, all right, we're good. Russ has us

781
00:33:07,828 --> 00:33:10,348
Speaker 8: like he's gonna put us in position to be successful.

782
00:33:10,388 --> 00:33:12,588
Speaker 8: So I do think to a certain extent, a veteran

783
00:33:12,668 --> 00:33:14,628
Speaker 8: of his stature, you have to be a leader and

784
00:33:14,748 --> 00:33:16,148
Speaker 8: guys have to look at you that way.

785
00:33:16,308 --> 00:33:19,388
Speaker 7: I think the second the Ravens paid Roquan Smith, I

786
00:33:19,428 --> 00:33:21,908
Speaker 7: think the writing of course on the wall. For Patrick Queen,

787
00:33:22,268 --> 00:33:23,908
Speaker 7: that was cool that they both played together and they

788
00:33:23,948 --> 00:33:25,508
Speaker 7: had this awesome deal a linebackers.

789
00:33:25,588 --> 00:33:29,548
Speaker 6: But for him to choose Pittsburgh. He's beloved in Baltimore.

790
00:33:29,628 --> 00:33:32,108
Speaker 6: They love him as a teammate and the fans love them.

791
00:33:32,148 --> 00:33:36,228
Speaker 6: But for Patrick Queen to choose the Steelers, this is spicy.

792
00:33:36,388 --> 00:33:38,548
Speaker 7: And I know he saw that Tomlin clip of him,

793
00:33:38,948 --> 00:33:41,868
Speaker 7: you know, talking obviously with Queen. But I look at

794
00:33:41,908 --> 00:33:44,548
Speaker 7: this defense and there are so many, like big names.

795
00:33:44,628 --> 00:33:45,948
Speaker 7: Cameron Hayward's a big name.

796
00:33:46,148 --> 00:33:46,388
Speaker 6: TJ.

797
00:33:46,548 --> 00:33:50,148
Speaker 7: Watt's a big name, Minka Fitzpatrick's a big name. Even

798
00:33:50,228 --> 00:33:53,908
Speaker 7: high Smith has become a bief name. Patrick Queen's a

799
00:33:53,948 --> 00:33:56,268
Speaker 7: big name, but like he also brings the leadership. You

800
00:33:56,268 --> 00:33:58,388
Speaker 7: could wear the green dot and the helmet linebacker, Like

801
00:33:58,468 --> 00:34:00,708
Speaker 7: I got this thing and I was looking, so Shazier

802
00:34:00,788 --> 00:34:03,748
Speaker 7: has that tragic career ending injury in twenty seventeen, and

803
00:34:03,828 --> 00:34:06,228
Speaker 7: you're coming on like looking at like who's been that

804
00:34:06,348 --> 00:34:09,188
Speaker 7: linebacker since? And they've tried all these guys like who's

805
00:34:09,228 --> 00:34:12,308
Speaker 7: been that Steelers linebacker, and I feel like this might

806
00:34:12,348 --> 00:34:14,268
Speaker 7: be the first one to actually and I know they

807
00:34:14,348 --> 00:34:16,308
Speaker 7: drafted Devin Bush and ride a bunch of guys.

808
00:34:16,828 --> 00:34:18,268
Speaker 6: Patrick Queen is a dog.

809
00:34:18,428 --> 00:34:20,508
Speaker 7: He is a leader of a defense, and he's got

810
00:34:20,948 --> 00:34:24,308
Speaker 7: this like kind of snarky personality a little bit where

811
00:34:24,388 --> 00:34:26,028
Speaker 7: like this almost fits him a little bit, like let

812
00:34:26,108 --> 00:34:28,828
Speaker 7: me go up against Baltimore now and the play the

813
00:34:28,908 --> 00:34:32,028
Speaker 7: black hat role. I really like it For the Steelers.

814
00:34:32,148 --> 00:34:34,428
Speaker 7: I'm still a little shocked he's signed there now. Look,

815
00:34:34,468 --> 00:34:36,228
Speaker 7: the money was right, so it all makes sense. But

816
00:34:36,468 --> 00:34:38,148
Speaker 7: for him to be going up against the Ravens for

817
00:34:38,228 --> 00:34:40,068
Speaker 7: being such a beloved raven a first round pick for

818
00:34:40,068 --> 00:34:42,388
Speaker 7: the last five years, I can't wait for it.

819
00:34:42,588 --> 00:34:43,988
Speaker 8: And I want to see him now. All right, he

820
00:34:44,028 --> 00:34:46,508
Speaker 8: had a year with ro Kwan Smith as his running mate,

821
00:34:46,748 --> 00:34:49,948
Speaker 8: and Rokwan the way everybody talks about him leadership wise

822
00:34:50,028 --> 00:34:52,748
Speaker 8: and just a dog mentality. I'm sure Patrick Queen has

823
00:34:52,788 --> 00:34:54,748
Speaker 8: learned a tough from him. I want to see him now.

824
00:34:54,828 --> 00:34:57,588
Speaker 8: He's walking into Pittsburgh and now you've gotten a contract,

825
00:34:57,868 --> 00:35:00,628
Speaker 8: you're walking in You're the guy that everybody's looking to,

826
00:35:00,948 --> 00:35:03,108
Speaker 8: that's looking for that motivational speech. I was looking for

827
00:35:03,188 --> 00:35:04,788
Speaker 8: that kicking the butt when one's necessary.

828
00:35:05,068 --> 00:35:07,228
Speaker 6: So he played really well next to wrol Kwan.

829
00:35:07,388 --> 00:35:09,068
Speaker 8: I want to see now how he goes and he's

830
00:35:09,108 --> 00:35:12,188
Speaker 8: the standalone guy and he's now bringing somebody along with him.

831
00:35:12,308 --> 00:35:14,108
Speaker 8: So I want to see that transition to as long

832
00:35:14,148 --> 00:35:15,068
Speaker 8: as staying in the division.

833
00:35:15,108 --> 00:35:17,868
Speaker 6: All Pro last year All Pro all that means one

834
00:35:17,908 --> 00:35:19,948
Speaker 6: of the top four linebackers in the sport. He was

835
00:35:19,988 --> 00:35:22,468
Speaker 6: one of them. He and Roquan Smith, so big signing.

836
00:35:22,588 --> 00:35:25,028
Speaker 6: I just I believe I'm going to see him coming

837
00:35:25,068 --> 00:35:27,508
Speaker 6: out there in a Steelers Yeah.

838
00:35:27,468 --> 00:35:29,188
Speaker 3: Peter, that list of names you just rattled off, like

839
00:35:29,228 --> 00:35:32,468
Speaker 3: the big name guys, the Watts, the Haywards, Queen, that's

840
00:35:32,508 --> 00:35:35,708
Speaker 3: also a really high IQ football defense. Just knowing those

841
00:35:35,748 --> 00:35:37,588
Speaker 3: guys a little bit that I do like I would

842
00:35:37,628 --> 00:35:39,908
Speaker 3: put that group of big names. It's kind of that

843
00:35:40,028 --> 00:35:42,348
Speaker 3: cost comparison of big names and really.

844
00:35:42,268 --> 00:35:43,028
Speaker 4: High football IQ.

845
00:35:43,268 --> 00:35:45,868
Speaker 3: So I'm really excited about Steelers defense as it stands

846
00:35:45,908 --> 00:35:47,708
Speaker 3: in the middle of March. Kyle, do you go defense

847
00:35:47,788 --> 00:35:49,708
Speaker 3: or offense when a turn comes to terms with what

848
00:35:49,788 --> 00:35:51,468
Speaker 3: the Steelers have done over the last couple of days.

849
00:35:51,428 --> 00:35:53,028
Speaker 1: Well, I go all the aboves, and I think it's

850
00:35:53,108 --> 00:35:56,828
Speaker 1: it's funny what Peter's talking about. With Patrick Queen's snarky personality.

851
00:35:56,868 --> 00:35:58,668
Speaker 1: We have an ongoing joke on the show with Patrick

852
00:35:58,748 --> 00:36:02,508
Speaker 1: Queen and where Patrick Queen's favorite avenger is Hawkeye, and

853
00:36:02,668 --> 00:36:05,268
Speaker 1: like nobody's favorite avenger is Hawk, I don't think Jeremy

854
00:36:05,308 --> 00:36:07,588
Speaker 1: Renner's favorite avenger is Hawkeye. And yet he's like Pat

855
00:36:07,668 --> 00:36:09,628
Speaker 1: Queen's say, look, I don't apologize for it. I like

856
00:36:09,708 --> 00:36:11,988
Speaker 1: how he gets his business done. He doesn't have any powers,

857
00:36:12,028 --> 00:36:14,228
Speaker 1: he doesn't have billions of dollars. He just gets the

858
00:36:14,348 --> 00:36:15,868
Speaker 1: job done. And I think that's kind of cool, and

859
00:36:15,908 --> 00:36:18,068
Speaker 1: I think that is an AFC Nord type mentality. But

860
00:36:18,308 --> 00:36:20,308
Speaker 1: I just have a few things to say here about

861
00:36:20,308 --> 00:36:22,028
Speaker 1: the Steelers, and I see these bold names at the

862
00:36:22,028 --> 00:36:23,668
Speaker 1: bottom of the screen, and I like it because I

863
00:36:23,668 --> 00:36:26,188
Speaker 1: think it's called for. You guys know. I love the Steelers.

864
00:36:26,228 --> 00:36:27,668
Speaker 1: I love what they stand for. I love what they

865
00:36:27,668 --> 00:36:29,868
Speaker 1: handle their business. I love their standard of excellence. My

866
00:36:29,948 --> 00:36:31,988
Speaker 1: ten year old son has decided that the Steelers are

867
00:36:32,068 --> 00:36:33,748
Speaker 1: his favorite team. I don't know if he's been within

868
00:36:33,828 --> 00:36:36,028
Speaker 1: five hundred miles of Pittsburgh. He doesn't care. He likes

869
00:36:36,108 --> 00:36:38,148
Speaker 1: that logo. He likes TJ why he likes all they

870
00:36:38,188 --> 00:36:40,428
Speaker 1: stand for. I think that this coming season is the

871
00:36:40,508 --> 00:36:44,268
Speaker 1: most important Pittsburgh Steelers season in a decade, in a decade,

872
00:36:44,428 --> 00:36:48,428
Speaker 1: because they are in a terrible, terrible drought right now.

873
00:36:48,748 --> 00:36:51,108
Speaker 1: This is an awful time for Steelers football. I'm just

874
00:36:51,148 --> 00:36:53,028
Speaker 1: going to be candid like that. They haven't won a

875
00:36:53,068 --> 00:36:57,068
Speaker 1: playoff game in seven years. Seven years. That is way

876
00:36:57,148 --> 00:36:59,468
Speaker 1: beneath the standard there. And you can say all you

877
00:36:59,588 --> 00:37:02,028
Speaker 1: want Mike Tomlins never had a losing season. As you

878
00:37:02,068 --> 00:37:04,028
Speaker 1: guys know, I have found that quote now to become

879
00:37:04,228 --> 00:37:08,148
Speaker 1: not only overused and beaten to a pulp, but really pathetic.

880
00:37:08,908 --> 00:37:11,108
Speaker 1: We got to the playoffs last year and lost in

881
00:37:11,148 --> 00:37:13,788
Speaker 1: the wild card run. That's guys, that's that's Brown stuff.

882
00:37:14,108 --> 00:37:17,228
Speaker 1: That's that's Bengals stuff. I don't care that you never

883
00:37:17,268 --> 00:37:19,628
Speaker 1: had a losing season. I don't care that you've raised

884
00:37:19,668 --> 00:37:21,348
Speaker 1: to the wild card and lose. That's not what the

885
00:37:21,388 --> 00:37:24,108
Speaker 1: Steelers stand for. And by the way, never had a

886
00:37:24,148 --> 00:37:26,828
Speaker 1: losing season for Mike Tomlin, I don't think it's true either,

887
00:37:27,028 --> 00:37:32,268
Speaker 1: because the Pittsburgh Steelers, the postseason is their season. So

888
00:37:32,388 --> 00:37:34,028
Speaker 1: he had a losing season. Last year he went oh

889
00:37:34,068 --> 00:37:35,948
Speaker 1: and one, all right, he went on on one in

890
00:37:36,028 --> 00:37:38,388
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. He went on to one in twenty twenty.

891
00:37:38,588 --> 00:37:40,988
Speaker 1: Those are all losing seasons for Mike Tomlin. And I

892
00:37:41,068 --> 00:37:43,388
Speaker 1: say that of admiration and respect for what he stands

893
00:37:43,468 --> 00:37:46,188
Speaker 1: for in the standard. It's not good enough. This is

894
00:37:46,268 --> 00:37:47,468
Speaker 1: a terrible.

895
00:37:48,628 --> 00:37:48,948
Speaker 2: Drought.

896
00:37:49,308 --> 00:37:51,428
Speaker 1: It is a it is a famine for the Steelers.

897
00:37:51,508 --> 00:37:54,108
Speaker 1: Right now, we're all saying, Okay, t J. Watt, I

898
00:37:54,188 --> 00:37:56,588
Speaker 1: think he's the best defensive player in the league.

899
00:37:56,788 --> 00:37:57,028
Speaker 3: TJ.

900
00:37:57,188 --> 00:37:59,868
Speaker 1: Watt has never won a playoff game. Micka Fitzpatrick has

901
00:38:00,068 --> 00:38:02,868
Speaker 1: never won a playoff game. That's not Steelers. They haven't

902
00:38:02,868 --> 00:38:06,228
Speaker 1: even been baptized yet in play never mind a Super

903
00:38:06,308 --> 00:38:09,148
Speaker 1: Bowl or representing the AFC in the Super Bowl. They

904
00:38:09,228 --> 00:38:11,308
Speaker 1: haven't even won a wild card game. And I don't

905
00:38:11,308 --> 00:38:13,908
Speaker 1: even blame those guys. I blame this era. This is

906
00:38:14,028 --> 00:38:16,348
Speaker 1: not what we signed up for. As any sort of

907
00:38:16,388 --> 00:38:18,868
Speaker 1: Steeler supporter, enthusiast or someone who goes to the fan

908
00:38:19,028 --> 00:38:20,908
Speaker 1: to the stadium to be a fan, this is not it.

909
00:38:21,308 --> 00:38:23,508
Speaker 1: So if you're making a bold move and kind of

910
00:38:23,548 --> 00:38:26,228
Speaker 1: breaking character and team building and getting Russell Wilson because

911
00:38:26,268 --> 00:38:28,588
Speaker 1: you think he's cheap and maybe as upside. Great if

912
00:38:28,628 --> 00:38:31,308
Speaker 1: you're gonna poach from the Ravens, great, because the Ravens

913
00:38:31,348 --> 00:38:33,668
Speaker 1: have been winning playoff games, the Bengals have been winning

914
00:38:33,708 --> 00:38:36,868
Speaker 1: playoff games. The Browns have won a playoff game against

915
00:38:36,908 --> 00:38:39,068
Speaker 1: the Steelers since the Steelers last won a playoff game.

916
00:38:39,108 --> 00:38:41,588
Speaker 1: It's not right. The NFL guys are pissed off about this.

917
00:38:41,868 --> 00:38:44,228
Speaker 1: The Steelers fans should be pissed off about this. If

918
00:38:44,268 --> 00:38:45,588
Speaker 1: this is as bold as they're going to get, I

919
00:38:45,588 --> 00:38:47,148
Speaker 1: don't know if it's bold enough. They got to be

920
00:38:47,228 --> 00:38:49,268
Speaker 1: bolder in the draft, and they got to fix this thing.

921
00:38:49,588 --> 00:38:51,788
Speaker 1: Because Mike Tomlin loses in the playoffs. I don't care

922
00:38:51,828 --> 00:38:53,868
Speaker 1: what he does in the regular season. I like Mike Tomlin.

923
00:38:53,868 --> 00:38:55,628
Speaker 1: I think he's one of the best coaches. This will

924
00:38:55,708 --> 00:38:58,988
Speaker 1: not do. The drought must end. Somebody do something because

925
00:38:59,068 --> 00:39:01,268
Speaker 1: this is not Steeler football. Thank you.

926
00:39:01,708 --> 00:39:03,748
Speaker 8: I love that he said that, because TJ. Watt hasn't

927
00:39:03,748 --> 00:39:06,388
Speaker 8: won a playoff. When you kind of just start grouping

928
00:39:06,428 --> 00:39:08,708
Speaker 8: people together when they've been there long enough, so Cam

929
00:39:08,748 --> 00:39:10,668
Speaker 8: Hayward and all of those guys, and even with the

930
00:39:10,708 --> 00:39:11,748
Speaker 8: moves they've made, are you've.

931
00:39:11,588 --> 00:39:12,348
Speaker 6: Added Russell Wilson.

932
00:39:12,348 --> 00:39:14,108
Speaker 8: When you talked about Patrick Queen, you made a trade

933
00:39:14,148 --> 00:39:16,428
Speaker 8: for Dante Jackson. I don't know that the Steelers have

934
00:39:16,548 --> 00:39:18,908
Speaker 8: done enough where you're saying, all right, just within their

935
00:39:18,948 --> 00:39:21,548
Speaker 8: division he mentioned Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow, But in the

936
00:39:21,628 --> 00:39:24,188
Speaker 8: AFC in general, does Russell Wilson get you over to

937
00:39:24,268 --> 00:39:26,028
Speaker 8: hump where now you're like, all right, we get matched

938
00:39:26,108 --> 00:39:28,028
Speaker 8: up with one of these teams and a wildcard in

939
00:39:28,108 --> 00:39:30,388
Speaker 8: division round, we feel really good about getting over that

940
00:39:30,508 --> 00:39:32,348
Speaker 8: hump and winning a playoff game again.

941
00:39:32,708 --> 00:39:36,028
Speaker 7: I think the Russell Wilson signing, everyone's reaction was the same.

942
00:39:36,228 --> 00:39:39,348
Speaker 7: That's a great bargain, that's a great deal. Denver's Denver's

943
00:39:39,388 --> 00:39:41,188
Speaker 7: paying for him. At no point is anyone like, well,

944
00:39:41,268 --> 00:39:44,228
Speaker 7: now let's go, Let's bring on Mahomes, bring on Josh Allen.

945
00:39:44,268 --> 00:39:46,068
Speaker 7: And I think that's a chip on Russ's shoulder. He's

946
00:39:46,108 --> 00:39:49,508
Speaker 7: gonna look to rehabilitate his image his career, obviously in Pittsburgh.

947
00:39:49,588 --> 00:39:52,188
Speaker 7: But I don't think anyone is doing a parade around

948
00:39:52,228 --> 00:39:54,348
Speaker 7: Pittsburgh over the fact that they added Russell Wilson and

949
00:39:54,388 --> 00:39:57,268
Speaker 7: now suddenly we're more equipped to face Did they get

950
00:39:57,308 --> 00:39:57,868
Speaker 7: better this week?

951
00:39:58,188 --> 00:40:01,788
Speaker 8: I think So what's interesting is I saw fans saying yesterday,

952
00:40:01,788 --> 00:40:04,148
Speaker 8: a right Kirk Cousin signs with the Atlanta Falcons and

953
00:40:04,468 --> 00:40:07,228
Speaker 8: feels like in sports media like everybody's throwing a parade

954
00:40:07,268 --> 00:40:09,868
Speaker 8: of just this upgrade of Kirk Cousins in Atlanta, and

955
00:40:09,948 --> 00:40:12,188
Speaker 8: it's like, well, Russell Wilson, who has won a Super

956
00:40:12,228 --> 00:40:14,908
Speaker 8: Bowl and has had success, nine time Pro Bowl, nine

957
00:40:14,948 --> 00:40:16,908
Speaker 8: time Pro Bowl, has had a ton of success, it's

958
00:40:16,908 --> 00:40:19,428
Speaker 8: all right, he joins the Steelers and we're just like, yeah,

959
00:40:19,628 --> 00:40:21,828
Speaker 8: like to your point, like that's a good barget.

960
00:40:21,628 --> 00:40:23,908
Speaker 7: Barn and all of a sudden becomes a microeconomics teacher

961
00:40:23,908 --> 00:40:25,628
Speaker 7: and it's like, well, all on salary cap, it works out.

962
00:40:25,668 --> 00:40:28,588
Speaker 6: But exactly can Russ be Russ? Can he be Russ?

963
00:40:28,668 --> 00:40:30,948
Speaker 8: And that's the we just watched Kirk Cousins before his

964
00:40:30,988 --> 00:40:33,428
Speaker 8: injury last year was on a on a level where

965
00:40:33,508 --> 00:40:35,348
Speaker 8: he was going to be considered for an MVP, and

966
00:40:35,428 --> 00:40:37,748
Speaker 8: we haven't seen that from Russ since he's left Seattle.

967
00:40:38,188 --> 00:40:39,988
Speaker 8: But if you're just going based off of what these

968
00:40:39,988 --> 00:40:42,148
Speaker 8: guys have done in their careers, just like we'll Russ

969
00:40:42,188 --> 00:40:44,748
Speaker 8: and Pittsburgh. They have George Pickens as a deep wide

970
00:40:44,788 --> 00:40:45,828
Speaker 8: receiver draft.

971
00:40:45,788 --> 00:40:47,988
Speaker 7: The offensive coordinator is Arthur Smith. You play you played

972
00:40:48,028 --> 00:40:50,228
Speaker 7: in a team coach by Arthur Smith. Yes, what does

973
00:40:50,308 --> 00:40:52,588
Speaker 7: that mean? And Arthur Smith offense? Because in Atlanta, I

974
00:40:52,788 --> 00:40:53,428
Speaker 7: don't know what to say.

975
00:40:53,668 --> 00:40:55,428
Speaker 8: And you look at in Atlanta they were kind of

976
00:40:55,508 --> 00:40:57,948
Speaker 8: putting the pieces around what you watch Arthur Smith as

977
00:40:57,948 --> 00:41:00,428
Speaker 8: an offensive coordinator for the Titans, he had Derek Henry

978
00:41:00,468 --> 00:41:02,788
Speaker 8: in the backfield. He had aj Brown on the outside

979
00:41:02,828 --> 00:41:05,268
Speaker 8: and Corey Davis, two big receivers going over the middle

980
00:41:05,468 --> 00:41:07,668
Speaker 8: being able to make plays. They get to Atlanta, he

981
00:41:07,708 --> 00:41:09,508
Speaker 8: gets Drake Lundon and he gets Kyle Pitts. He was

982
00:41:09,548 --> 00:41:11,308
Speaker 8: looking for that same thing. He never got the missing

983
00:41:11,348 --> 00:41:13,748
Speaker 8: piece of the quarterback. I look at Russ. He's a

984
00:41:13,788 --> 00:41:15,588
Speaker 8: guy that when he had his most success, he had

985
00:41:15,668 --> 00:41:17,588
Speaker 8: running backs in the back. He has that in Pittsburgh.

986
00:41:17,708 --> 00:41:19,508
Speaker 8: You get a receiver like George Pickens. If you can

987
00:41:19,548 --> 00:41:21,348
Speaker 8: get one of these guys in the draft this year

988
00:41:21,628 --> 00:41:23,948
Speaker 8: to put opposite him, now you may be able to

989
00:41:23,988 --> 00:41:26,188
Speaker 8: get that play action in Russ throwing up shots and

990
00:41:26,228 --> 00:41:28,908
Speaker 8: making plays. That maybe Arthur Smith and Russ is the

991
00:41:29,388 --> 00:41:31,748
Speaker 8: match that he needed once he left Seattle, but it's

992
00:41:31,828 --> 00:41:33,428
Speaker 8: yet to be determined until we actually see it.

993
00:41:33,588 --> 00:41:36,068
Speaker 3: I do think how Tomlin is able to write this

994
00:41:36,148 --> 00:41:38,708
Speaker 3: ship offensively will be key in terms of what happened

995
00:41:38,748 --> 00:41:40,548
Speaker 3: in the second half last year because of the unpressed

996
00:41:40,548 --> 00:41:42,988
Speaker 3: meaned decision he had to make in terms of moving

997
00:41:43,068 --> 00:41:45,628
Speaker 3: on from play callers and then having that split room

998
00:41:45,708 --> 00:41:47,428
Speaker 3: of one guy's running the meeting and the other guys

999
00:41:47,548 --> 00:41:48,148
Speaker 3: running the offense.

1000
00:41:48,228 --> 00:41:48,868
Speaker 4: It was very interesting.

1001
00:41:48,908 --> 00:41:51,428
Speaker 3: He's very unlike the Steelers and frankly not being able

1002
00:41:51,468 --> 00:41:53,148
Speaker 3: to win in January's very on like the Steelers to

1003
00:41:53,188 --> 00:41:53,788
Speaker 3: Kyle's points.

1004
00:41:53,828 --> 00:41:55,548
Speaker 4: So we will see how times.

1005
00:41:55,308 --> 00:41:57,388
Speaker 3: Have changed or if they stay the same in Pittsburgh.

1006
00:41:57,388 --> 00:42:00,148
Speaker 3: Still to come on our show wide receiver market. It's

1007
00:42:00,228 --> 00:42:03,268
Speaker 3: been quiet the past couple days. The running backs. They're like, no,

1008
00:42:03,588 --> 00:42:05,788
Speaker 3: it's it's our time to have a headliner too, alright,

1009
00:42:05,908 --> 00:42:07,588
Speaker 3: but we're going to discuss the pass cutchers.
