1
00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 1: You still want to fire Booner.

2
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:11,719
Speaker 2: What's going on?

3
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's ever gonna change.

4
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 1: Honestly, what do you mean it's never gonna change.

5
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 3: Now we've started.

6
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:22,760
Speaker 1: What do you mean that's not gonna change.

7
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm a little bit like.

8
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 4: I just watched the Yankees sometimes and I go, yeah,

9
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 4: we hit great, that's great, that's right. What else do

10
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 4: we do? I don't know, but we hit great and

11
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 4: there's not much else there. So also I'm just kind

12
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 4: of like breaking the ice a little bit about watching

13
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 4: the Yanks once again. As I think I told you

14
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 4: a few weeks ago, like I was, I'm pissed at

15
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:47,279
Speaker 4: the Yankees.

16
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 3: I am. I was a little bitter at them.

17
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,240
Speaker 4: I couldn't turn on the game earlier in the season

18
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 4: because I was just like, how the fuck do we

19
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 4: let Wan Soto go to the Mets?

20
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 3: Right?

21
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 1: Right?

22
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 3: So that like bothers me.

23
00:00:58,040 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 4: And then you know, I've joked around, but I'm like

24
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 4: I kind of serious where I'm like, I don't know,

25
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 4: maybe we need to sell the team. We need a

26
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 4: rich hedge funder. We're the Yankees. We shouldn't be outspend

27
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 4: by anybody, Okay, we're we're that's not doesn't make sense.

28
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: Especially the Mets. I mean, especially the Mets.

29
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 3: Exactly.

30
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 4: We're paying Aaron Judge the cheapest contract out of any superstar,

31
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 4: and like ever, I mean, you kidding me, it's the

32
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 4: greatest deal in the history of pro sports. He's playing

33
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 4: like Babe Ruth and we're paying him like he's just

34
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 4: a good player in the Major League Baseball. So yeah,

35
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 4: I'm just getting over that a little bit. And uh,

36
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 4: I've heard some crazy stories about Juan Sota's decision and

37
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 4: all that to go to the Mets and everything there too,

38
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 4: and mom was involved and very involved in the decision,

39
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 4: and that's kind of crazy too, But I don't know

40
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 4: how much of that's true.

41
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 5: If you haven't been paying attention, I could fill you

42
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 5: in with the Yankees Max Freed. He's looking like.

43
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 3: A cy young Clark Schmitt.

44
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 5: Six scoreless innings yesterday, Aaron Judge four home runs over

45
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 5: the past three year, and he's.

46
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 3: Complaining, I mean, screw Billy. I don't need Billy anymore.

47
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 3: We got Taylor, and I think you Taylor.

48
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 5: I come from Billy Gill's coaching tree. Difference is I

49
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 5: respect Sims.

50
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 4: Oh Man you right, and you probably know something about sports,

51
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 4: so that's what makes you better than Billy exactly.

52
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 5: I'm a ballner, he's a ball knower. We both played

53
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 5: college football, so we kind of have that connection there.

54
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, Taylor played college football, Sims. There you go.

55
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 3: I mean, look at he looks like an athlete.

56
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 4: I mean, he certainly looks more athletic than Billy in

57
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 4: that big roundhead he's got. This guy's got a streamlined head,

58
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 4: a little neck and shoulders. Yeah, and he doesn't wear

59
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 4: stupid hats and stuff like that. So I like Taylor

60
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 4: right away.

61
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 2: I mean, can you believe this shit? You and I

62
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 2: are sitting here working mid June. You have your quarterback

63
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:45,639
Speaker 2: rankings out. We'll get to him in just a second.

64
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 2: Billy and mikey a both on vacation.

65
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, seriously, I mean, the NFL is still practicing, We're

66
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,119
Speaker 4: still going on. God bless football, God bless those two

67
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 4: that they just get to do whatever the fuck they

68
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 4: want whenever they want. That's great, that's great. We'll just

69
00:02:58,080 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 4: keep working though.

70
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 3: You and me. Taylor, Taylor's got the work ethic we need.

71
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: Listen, you and I are both working for Billy. I

72
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 1: mean that's the deal.

73
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, don't ever say that in a sentence again,

74
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 4: that's not true.

75
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.

76
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 2: BFD with Mike Florio every Day Up Peacock The Unbuttoned

77
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,119
Speaker 2: podcast Football Night in America as well.

78
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: Quarterback rankings are out, Chris Simms.

79
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 2: Quarterback rankings are out, and no one knows how to

80
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 2: get the people talking like you do.

81
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 1: You are an expert at this, Chris Simms.

82
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 2: To his credit, no one is watching more film on

83
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 2: these guys than Chris Simms is. But you have Patrick Mahomes.

84
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 2: He's in your core four. But he's number four in

85
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,119
Speaker 2: your core four. I love it.

86
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 4: I mean, listen, it's one of the harder things I've

87
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 4: ever had to do. And then this is not an

88
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 4: easy subject, like coming up. We know the top four, right,

89
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 4: We've discussed this a million times. They're special. I don't

90
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 4: know if there's ever been four so similar in age

91
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 4: in their prime all together at the same time in

92
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 4: the league as we've seen right now, right. I mean,

93
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 4: there's some other ones in history you might be able

94
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 4: to go back to, like Marino, L w Right, Joe

95
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 4: Montana and maybe a Jim Kelly that era there we

96
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 4: had Steve Young, and Brett Farv and Troy Aikman and

97
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 4: John Elway in the mid nineties and all that. But

98
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 4: I think, you know what I'm saying here, this is

99
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 4: a special for you know, how would I think of Mahomes? Right,

100
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 4: Mahomes is arguably the greatest quarterback I've ever seen, all right,

101
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 4: But that doesn't mean necessarily he's played the best football

102
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 4: over the last really two years of his career, where

103
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 4: it's just been like, oh my gosh, every game is surgical,

104
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 4: big plays, wow. Right, And I know some of that's

105
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 4: the team around him, and I take all that into

106
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 4: account certainly, right, But I and he's mastered winning. Mahomes

107
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 4: is mastered winning. And I know a lot of people

108
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 4: when they see that that I've made this comment on

109
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 4: my podcast, they go, well, isn't that a point.

110
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 3: Doesn't that mean you're a great quarterback? Yes, it is.

111
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 4: But like we put winning a little too much on

112
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 4: the quarterback shoulders a little too much lately. I don't

113
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 4: remember my dad beating John Elway in the Super Bowl

114
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 4: and people going, you know what, Phil Simms is better

115
00:04:59,200 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 4: than John Elway.

116
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 3: Team won, He's better, right, all right?

117
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,919
Speaker 4: Right, So we like to pick and choose when we

118
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 4: use that, and is again, how many I come on

119
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 4: here and nobody talks higher than Patrick Mahomes. So I

120
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 4: love him, I really do. And a part of what

121
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,280
Speaker 4: I am in my career is because of Patrick Mahomes.

122
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 4: I mean I'm the one that was, hey, he should

123
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 4: be the number one pick in the draft. I think

124
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 4: he knows I love him and the respect I have there.

125
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:26,279
Speaker 4: But when then mastering winning and the way their team

126
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,919
Speaker 4: is and all that, it hasn't necessarily led itself to

127
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 4: the best quarterback play, Okay, And that's what we're here evaluating.

128
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 4: And again this is where it gets hard, because, yeah,

129
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 4: you watched film last year. I mean again, the Chiefs

130
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 4: won by the skinner to their teeth almost in every

131
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 4: single game the whole year. Yes, and within that, the

132
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 4: offense was never the story. We've come on, We've talked

133
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 4: about it. They're a defensive football team, okay, And I

134
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 4: it's great that he's adjusted to that and all that

135
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 4: as well. But he's afforded luckies too because of how

136
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 4: good the team is. That I would tell you Josh

137
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 4: Allen or Joe Burrow don't have the luxury Mahomes can

138
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 4: throw a ball away on third down or first down, like, oh,

139
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 4: the guy's kind of covered, but let me kind of

140
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 4: put it in the spot.

141
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 3: Maybe he gets it, maybe not if it's incomplete. What else,

142
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 3: So what, We'll punt the ball away.

143
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 4: Our defense will keep us in the game, and I'll

144
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 4: keep playing that way. He can sometimes be maybe overly

145
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 4: aggressive because I think he knows his defense is too,

146
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 4: is great, And sometimes he can be almost too conservative

147
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 4: and wait for somebody to be way open because I

148
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 4: think he's also like, hey, hey, I'll just wait and

149
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 4: now he's one of the clutches quarterbacks we've ever seen,

150
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 4: of course. But what I'm getting to more than anything is, yes,

151
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,919
Speaker 4: the play game by game. If you sat there and

152
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 4: watched film with me from last year, and I even

153
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 4: take a little bit in the year before that into

154
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 4: account too, you'd sit here and go, oh my gosh,

155
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 4: I mean Burrow, it's of course, one after another, Alan,

156
00:06:59,160 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 4: it's a lot.

157
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 3: I mean it's a.

158
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 4: Lot of amazing, maybe not surgical every week, and then

159
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,239
Speaker 4: you get to Lamar Jackson you go, oh my gosh,

160
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 4: it's surgical. It's unbelievable. In the pocket, it's great reads,

161
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 4: it's unbelievable. Versatility of throws, he takes care of the ball,

162
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 4: what he brings to the field, and the elements of

163
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 4: the run game, his scrambling ability, and it just I

164
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 4: came into the exercise thinking Josh Allen was going to

165
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 4: be my number one quarterback on the list, and then

166
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 4: as I cracked through film, I went, there's just no denying.

167
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 4: I mean, Lamar's year was phenomenal. He's been playing phenomenal

168
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 4: and yeah, right now, I don't think anybody's playing the

169
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 4: quarterback position better than Lamar Jackson in the NFL.

170
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 2: You know, Mahomes is interesting to me because when you

171
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 2: say he's mastered winning, we all know Mahomes is capable.

172
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 2: If he needs to to go out and throw for

173
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 2: five hundred yards and five touchdowns zero, We've seen him

174
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 2: do it, Chris, We've seen him do it right and

175
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 2: the biggest of games. But you're right, he makes like

176
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 2: clock management and all that stuff.

177
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: That stuff is very.

178
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 2: Important and it goes into the ingredients of winning football games,

179
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 2: and Mahomes has mastered that aspect of the game.

180
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 3: You're right, he definitely has now.

181
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 4: And again within that too, I mean, you guys have

182
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 4: watched a lot of games or you sit there and

183
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 4: it's like, wait, the Chiefs they look like they're playing

184
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 4: with their food. Oh he made a bad read. Oh

185
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 4: he threw into coverage. Oh awesome play, awesome play. Oh

186
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 4: three and out, three and out, three and out, three

187
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 4: and out. Oh wait, now they need it. Oh now

188
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 4: they drive down and the score right. And that's where

189
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 4: he is amating amazing. But like what I would tell

190
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 4: you again, I don't think some of those other quarterbacks

191
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 4: have the luxury of playing that way. Like if Joe

192
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 4: Burrow sometimes just throws a token ball away on first down,

193
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 4: or you know, just goes, wait, third down, I don't

194
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 4: like it, We'll punt away.

195
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 3: I'll go.

196
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,079
Speaker 4: Well, they're gonna be down by even more than they

197
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 4: were the drive before.

198
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,200
Speaker 3: Like he knows he can't do that.

199
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 4: And that's where it's hard to do all of this

200
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 4: and figure it out. And these four are special. It's

201
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 4: nitpicky as hell. Okay, But yeah, the way he's played

202
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 4: the Chiefs, the way they're playing it hasn't led itself

203
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 4: to the most unbelievable surgicality big plays quarterback way the

204
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 4: year they beat the Eagles of the Super Bowl, I mean,

205
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 4: that was arguably the greatest year I've ever seen any

206
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 4: quarterback have five thousand yards led the NFL and touchdowns, MVP,

207
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 4: all of that, but it seems like ever since then, yeah,

208
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 4: they haven't been a high functioning offense and he hasn't

209
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 4: played that type of quarterback play that you're kind of

210
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 4: alluding to, even in the playoffs. See, I get a

211
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 4: lot of feedback of like, yeah, but he beat him

212
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 4: in the playoffs and he did this, and are you

213
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,319
Speaker 4: not taking to the account in the playoffs?

214
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 3: And I go, yeah, of.

215
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 4: Course I am, But like you don't look at any

216
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,959
Speaker 4: playoff games the last few years and just go, oh

217
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 4: my gosh, and that game Mahomes set it up, set the.

218
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 3: World up five one.

219
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, right right, So I'm not And again I'm just

220
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 4: trying to give everybody and I'm and this was hard

221
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 4: for me. And this is where I'm I give myself

222
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 4: a lot of credit for taking bias out of this,

223
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 4: because I do love Mahomes, but I want to be

224
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 4: fair to my rankings and my evaluation and everything that way.

225
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 4: And that's where it was a tough one, because yes,

226
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 4: I do think he's already one of the greatest of

227
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 4: all time, but right now, playing the fourth best out

228
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 4: of these guys right here.

229
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 1: As Mahomes reached out and said, what the fuck are

230
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 1: you doing?

231
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 4: No, he will, but I'm not even joking. Like again,

232
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 4: those play into my mind, it does, of course. Well,

233
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 4: my son, he was seeing my rough drafts in my

234
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 4: office on the paper of my top forty. Yeah, and

235
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 4: when I started to get finally and writing it down

236
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 4: to the end, he saw Mahomes at four and he's shit.

237
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:37,959
Speaker 4: He was literally like, Dad, you can't put Mahomes at four.

238
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 4: He'll never talk to you again. Right, So, like I definitely,

239
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 4: and like, let me tell you. When he said that,

240
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,680
Speaker 4: I was like, oh shit, because I like Patrick Mahomes.

241
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 4: You know I've been down to Kansas City in that facility, yeah,

242
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 4: I mean six seven times over the last just two

243
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 4: or three years.

244
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 3: I've been there, yep.

245
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,839
Speaker 4: So and they have a special place in my heart

246
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 4: that way. And I know what he's capable of, and

247
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,319
Speaker 4: I know that, and you know, but but yet everything

248
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 4: I said still stands true. You go to the Ravens

249
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,679
Speaker 4: the AFC Championship game, right, You're not gonna sit there

250
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 4: and go, oh my gosh, the offense what they did

251
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 4: that day? No, No, it was they intercepted Lamar Jackson,

252
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 4: they stripped them once, they made Zay Flowers fumble on

253
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 4: the one yard line, going in right, the defense did that?

254
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 4: We forget this ship man, Yeah, we all forget the

255
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 4: context of That's why I've been trying to say, it's

256
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 4: amazing that they've transitioned to a defensive team compared to

257
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 4: what they were. What you were alluding to a few

258
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 4: few minutes ago with going, yeah, they used to be

259
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 4: this high flying show act and just unbelievable and doing

260
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 4: all that. But again, like I said, that doesn't necessarily

261
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 4: lead itself to the best quarterback play week in and

262
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 4: week out in the NFL.

263
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,319
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, I like doing it through your

264
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 2: son's prism, where it's who do I want dad to

265
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 2: have a friendship with the most, and it's Patrick Mahomes clearly.

266
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's that's what they can want.

267
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 3: He loves Mahomes.

268
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 4: I mean, he loves Mahomes, and he knows how he

269
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 4: knows I love Mahomes.

270
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he has access to Mahomes and he doesn't

271
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:03,679
Speaker 2: want to lose that access, you know.

272
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 4: But I also sit there and go, wait, like I

273
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 4: like Josh Allen. I got a Google relationship with him

274
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 4: and Joe Burrow. They've never been pissed A mean when

275
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 4: I've made them three.

276
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 1: Or four Wait, it just dawned them me.

277
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 2: Did you put Lamar a one to straighten your relationship

278
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:16,560
Speaker 2: with Lamar Jackson?

279
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 3: They have no relationship with Lamar Jackson. How you do?

280
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 3: I'm none, So there you go.

281
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 4: I've never even met Lamar Jackson. I've never even said

282
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 4: hello to him, have not had that. I've been on

283
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 4: the field with them in pregame warm ups, I've been

284
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 4: in the same room with him. I've never gotten the

285
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 4: opportunity to go meet him. But there's no denying what

286
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 4: he's doing and one of the most unbelievable let me

287
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,319
Speaker 4: just say this too, running quarterback, arguably the greatest running

288
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 4: quarterback ever.

289
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,719
Speaker 3: Whenever we talk about running quarterbacks in.

290
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 4: Football, we usually are like, well, but in the pocket,

291
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 4: they're just not good enough. They don't go through reads

292
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 4: because they can run their whole life. They look at

293
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 4: one guy and if he's covered, they go, I'll run

294
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 4: because something positive always happens. The fact that he's made

295
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 4: this transition to be as unbelievable as he is in

296
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,559
Speaker 4: the pocket, making great reads and throws and doing everything

297
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 4: there along with the athletic ability. It's really kind of

298
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 4: never been seen to this capacity ever in the history

299
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 4: of the NFL, and that's why it's a special damn group.

300
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 4: Burrows as surgical as you'll ever see. Josh Allen's an

301
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 4: unbelievable freak of nature. Who I don't know if is

302
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 4: anybody's more valuable to their team right now than Josh Allen. Okay,

303
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 4: and what he does and then we know Mahomes and

304
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 4: what he does there is super super special.

305
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 2: Is there a guy that's close, like who's the fifth

306
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,559
Speaker 2: who's close to cracking the core for it?

307
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 1: Would Jalen Hurts?

308
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 2: I mean it has to be in that conversation, Chris,

309
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts is the next tier down.

310
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 4: Okay, I have Jalen Hurts number ten. I got a

311
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 4: lot of respect there, okay, and I like that. But

312
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 4: but we all have a little bit of like recency

313
00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 4: biases or or or revisionist history. Sure, the NFC Championship

314
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 4: is good, the Super Bowl was good.

315
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 3: I understand that two of them.

316
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 4: But I got to take in the other twelve or

317
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 4: fourteen weeks before that, where it was below average. That's

318
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 4: where I'm just like people. I want to go, wait,

319
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 4: Eagles fans, you were booing the quarterback for most of

320
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 4: the year. The offense was the passing offense was the

321
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 4: problem with the team? Aj Brown said it, like point blank,

322
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 4: what's the problem the passing offense? Does that lead everybody

323
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 4: to believe he's a top five quarterback? I'd never heard

324
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 4: that around any of those other quarterbacks. To go, we

325
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 4: can't throw the ball. Mahomes is a top quarterback in

326
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 4: the football, but the problem with the team is we

327
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 4: can't throw that doesn't people need to hear what comes

328
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 4: out of their mouth at times.

329
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 3: That's what happens. So Hurts really good.

330
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 4: I don't know if I feel like Hurts his year

331
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 4: in totality was better than the year before with how

332
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 4: he played at quarterback. He's awesome. He's an awesome leader.

333
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 4: He continues to be better in the pocket.

334
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 3: For sure.

335
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 4: His running in what he does and brings to the

336
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 4: table that way for the Philadelphia Eagles is very special.

337
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 4: But his throwing is not gonna and is what he

338
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 4: does in the pocket's not gonna blow people away, especially

339
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 4: in NFL circles. It's very simple his arm is I

340
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 4: would say an average NFL arm. It's not like WOA lasers.

341
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 4: His releases I would say about average for an NFL starters,

342
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 4: the quickness of the release. So yeah, there's things there

343
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 4: that still need.

344
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 3: To be worked on.

345
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 4: But to your point, the next guy, Jayden Daniels has

346
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 4: that potential. Yeah right, yeah, he's number five on my list.

347
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford, I do think dances around that area.

348
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 3: He does never gets the credit he deserves. CJ.

349
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 4: Stroud certainly has the potential to jump into that crew

350
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 4: right there, right CJ Stroud.

351
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 3: Anything you think about CJ.

352
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 4: Stroud in a fall off from last year, it's Texans related,

353
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 4: not CJ. Stroud related. And that's the other thing I

354
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 4: love about doing the processes. I see things like that

355
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 4: more clearly in the offseason when I do this little

356
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 4: quarterback rankings sims.

357
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 5: Who's the quarterback that you're a lot lower on than

358
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 5: most analysts that you just don't see what others are seeing?

359
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I mean Hurts might be one that

360
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 4: jumps up there right in that conversation. I would say,

361
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 4: right now, the one I'm the lowest on and the

362
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 4: one that maybe surprised me the most. It was Dak Prescott.

363
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 4: Dak Prescott, I came away going, man, I'm underwhelmed. It

364
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 4: was the most underwhelmed that came away in any year

365
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 4: doing Dak Prescott. He's the highest paid quarterback in football.

366
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 4: He's not in the top ten. That says it all.

367
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 4: And I have a hard time believing that anybody would

368
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 4: have him in the top ten, because again, we got

369
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 4: some good quarterbacks in football right now. We don't have

370
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 4: a quarterback problem. We got an offensive coordinator problem. As

371
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 4: you hear me say all the time, I'm probably lower

372
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 4: on Tua Taylor, as you know. I mean I'm a

373
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 4: little lower on that, maybe even a little lower on

374
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 4: guys like even though I got him right around you know,

375
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 4: the twelve thirteen twelve range there in that air area.

376
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 4: So I would say those are the guys probably that

377
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 4: are the most apparent in that category.

378
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 2: I did ask Billy if he had a question for you,

379
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,360
Speaker 2: and he responded, is Trevor Lawrence good?

380
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,199
Speaker 4: That a very It's a big year I had like

381
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:27,919
Speaker 4: Dak Prescott, Tua and Trevor all in this category of

382
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 4: like is this it right? And what I call what

383
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 4: I mean by that is like, are they gonna be

384
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 4: able to offer us anymore or it's just what they are.

385
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 4: It's just what they are. It's just like inconsistent. We

386
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 4: don't know what to expect whatever, and that this will

387
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 4: be big for Trevor Lawrence.

388
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 3: Is a big year for Trevor Lawrence.

389
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 4: We know that's why was hired and they improved the

390
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:49,440
Speaker 4: offensive line.

391
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:51,439
Speaker 3: They have no excuses.

392
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 4: They got talented receiver around him, and that's where we're

393
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 4: gonna see if Trevor Lawrence can play the type of

394
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 4: football we saw in that one season where they went

395
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 4: to Kansas City and lost a divisional playoff game. We've

396
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 4: seen one stretch of greatness from Trevor Lawrence. Everything else

397
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,959
Speaker 4: has been all over the place. And I'll be interested

398
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 4: to see how this plays out with him and Liam

399
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 4: Cone and Jacksonville.

400
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 2: PFT with Mike Florio every day on Peacock the Unbuttoned

401
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 2: podcast as well Football Night in America.

402
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 1: I'm super excited, Chris.

403
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 2: I'm wondering what your expectations are because I'm super excited

404
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 2: to see what Bryce Young can become this season.

405
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,199
Speaker 3: I hear you there, Yeah, I do.

406
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 4: And they're a team I think, and you saw it

407
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 4: at the end of the season, it started to click

408
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 4: for him a little bit. There's still things and concerns

409
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,639
Speaker 4: where I'm like, it's not perfect right, but it's still

410
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 4: like okay.

411
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 3: Finally he looked comfortable. He looked the party.

412
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,239
Speaker 4: He looked like he should be out there playing and

413
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,680
Speaker 4: be the starting quarterback of the Carolina Panthers.

414
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 3: That's the positive thing.

415
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 4: Now it's gotta be The next step is like, hey,

416
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 4: we're we can go and play and attack and do that.

417
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 4: We don't have to like, ooh, we don't want to

418
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 4: call this because he doesn't do it that great, or

419
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 4: he doesn't understand it yet, or he's not comfortable in

420
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,199
Speaker 4: the pocket. In these situations, we got to see it

421
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 4: full fledge. Go forward. And I think with the in

422
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 4: their offensive line and adding some weapons at receiver, yeah,

423
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 4: I would. I would think Bryce Young considered continues to

424
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,119
Speaker 4: kind of go in that upward direction.

425
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers is in Pittsburgh now he has a well

426
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,400
Speaker 2: he's married, and he said, listen, all the typical things

427
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 2: you would expect from Maren.

428
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: I'm married. I'm not going to tell you who I'm

429
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 1: married to.

430
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 2: I didn't even tell anyone I was getting married and

431
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin is good for my soul.

432
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: What do you make of that fit?

433
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 3: I think it's a really good fit.

434
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: So I know.

435
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 4: The Steelers have had below average quarterback play for you know,

436
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 4: a few years now, really, and even unto the last

437
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 4: year of Ben Roethlisberger, it wasn't really the Ben Roethlisberger

438
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,120
Speaker 4: as we knew in the prime, right, So they've had

439
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 4: to play football basically going. We got to manage the

440
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 4: offense and just find ways to chew up the clock

441
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 4: and run the ball more than we should and be

442
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 4: boring as hell on that side of the ball. And

443
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,919
Speaker 4: then we got to find ways to create turnovers and

444
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 4: do shit on the defense side of the ball, because

445
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:02,439
Speaker 4: that's how we're gonna have to win the game. And

446
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 4: we gotta find a way to block a punt because again,

447
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,119
Speaker 4: our offense isn't gonna score touchdowns all that much. That

448
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 4: won't be a problem anymore with Aaron Rodgers. I first off,

449
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 4: Pittsburgh with DK Metcalf, the offensive line can continues to

450
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 4: get better as long as they don't let him hold

451
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,880
Speaker 4: the offense hostage and make it the Aaron Rodgers offense.

452
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 4: And he plays a little bit like he did at

453
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 4: the end of the year last year where he hung

454
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 4: in the pocket, he threw the ball down the field.

455
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 4: He was a little aggressive that way. If he can

456
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 4: do that right and they can get him to do that,

457
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 4: I go, oh, watch out for Pittsburgh because Pittsburgh's defense,

458
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 4: it was number twelve in football last year.

459
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 3: It was better than that. It's a better defense than that.

460
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 4: But when you have to always manage through the offense

461
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 4: and do stuff like that, the defense has to maybe

462
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,679
Speaker 4: call some defenses it doesn't really want to call to

463
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:49,679
Speaker 4: make something happen.

464
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 3: It gets worn out.

465
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,959
Speaker 4: Because Russell Wilson's gone three and out seven times in

466
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 4: a row, so they start to wear down that way.

467
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 3: I think it's gonna help out the whole football team.

468
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 5: And of course he's a better option than Mason Rudolph

469
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 5: Stu Gott's. I consider you the master of the take,

470
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 5: and I want to get your opinion on this take.

471
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 5: It's Mike Tannebaum on get up talking about Aaron Rodgers.

472
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 1: Okay, I'll make a bull prediction, Greedy.

473
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 3: I think Aaron Rodgers could be irrelevant by Thanksgiving.

474
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:22,360
Speaker 1: Irrelevant Irrelevant, That's ridiculous.

475
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 3: That's how you take though.

476
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I don't see that happening. I mean, first off,

477
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 4: this it'll always be relevant. It doesn't matter.

478
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,880
Speaker 2: You can make himself relevant just by taking a microphone.

479
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 4: Well, they're always relevant with Johnny. Who the hell cares

480
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 4: who the quarterback is. I mean, it doesn't matter.

481
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,880
Speaker 3: So I have a hard time thinking that now.

482
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 4: The point is is it not that they be relevant,

483
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:48,439
Speaker 4: it's just gonna be like I joke around like early

484
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 4: December the last few years with the Steelers, where I'm like,

485
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 4: oh my gosh, don't let them in the playoffs.

486
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,920
Speaker 3: It's gonna be a boring ass wild card game.

487
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 4: And if they upset somebody in the wildcard game, oh,

488
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 4: it'll be even more of a fucking horrible travesty in

489
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 4: the divisional game. Right, So I've been like, oh, I

490
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 4: don't want to see them in the playoffs.

491
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:07,160
Speaker 3: That's the way.

492
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 4: Now with this guy, I think our thoughts will change

493
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 4: and will go WHOA. I think they can have some

494
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 4: balance on offense. He can make some plays with his arms. Still, well,

495
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,920
Speaker 4: they might be able to make some waves, win a game,

496
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 4: maybe win two in the playoffs, do something like that.

497
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 4: That's where I'm excited with Pittsburgh and Aaron Rodgers. I'd

498
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,959
Speaker 4: be shocked if they're irrelevant by Thanksgiving.

499
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 1: I totally agree with you.

500
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 2: Erin is still a guy christ You saw it last

501
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 2: year the final ten games. He was really good second

502
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 2: year off the Achilles. Aaron Rodgers is still a guy

503
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 2: to your point, in the playoffs or in a big spot,

504
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 2: can go out and win you a football game.

505
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 3: No doubt. Ye. And he's gonna be able to lead

506
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 3: the team that way.

507
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 4: He's not going to be Oh gosh, it's a big

508
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 4: playoff game for the Steelers. The matchup he has and

509
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 4: the combination with DK Metcalf, I think could be really cool.

510
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 4: Dk Metcalf's been a guy up in Seattle that hasn't

511
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 4: had the ball fed to him as much as he should.

512
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 4: Rogers usually his stars, and that's where I think he'll

513
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 4: little quick screens, the slants, all that, the fades, the

514
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 4: back shoulders, when even DK Metcalf is covered, that's right

515
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 4: in Rogers wheelhouse. And I like that combination. And they

516
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 4: just got to figure out that TJ. Watt contract situation.

517
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 4: So that's not a distraction going into training camp, because yeah,

518
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,160
Speaker 4: people are gonna be You're asking a lot of questions

519
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 4: and the media is gonna be there.

520
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 3: They'll have enough distractions to deal with. Because Aaron Rodgers

521
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:25,880
Speaker 3: is in town.

522
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 2: We'll get you at here in a few minutes. Josh

523
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,240

Speaker 2: Howbout you win a Super Bowl first? Huh, Well that's

525
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:33,960

Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean yeah, of course.

527
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 4: And well, Josh Allen, I you know again, another guy

528
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:41,439
Speaker 4: that I've got a little history with to know that

529
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,879

530
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:44,439
Speaker 4: like it's.

531
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,639
Speaker 3: He's a freak of nature. Jim Ratt.

532
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,679
Speaker 4: Just like Burrow and Mahomes where like they're in the

533
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 4: facility all.

534
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 3: Day every day.

535
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 1: That guy just wants to play football in any form.

536
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,919

Speaker 4: and all that this has win a Super Bowl. But

539
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,160

Speaker 4: throwing lasers from the back of the end zone to

547
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 4: the other end zone on every play like that would

548
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 4: be unbelievable to watch.

549
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:23,639

00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 4: There's only so much I could.

569
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:03,639

Speaker 4: he's fourteen.

573
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,640
Speaker 2: Hey, tell me he should do his own quarterback rankings

574
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 2: and if he needs my help, I'll help him out.

575
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:13,159
Speaker 1: Okay, you should do that.

576
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,880
Speaker 3: Yes, interesting, he's always picking anything I do. Apart.

577
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:21,680
Speaker 4: The first time I ever got a compliment really from

578
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,879

582
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 4: much of his life, like most team fourteen year olds, is,

583
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 4: did you know, is dictated by what it says on

584
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 4: social media? Of course, yes, But he took a lot

585
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 4: of flak from his friends last year and two years

586
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 4: to go in the draft process when I made Molik

587
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:47,640
Speaker 4: Neighbors and Brian Thomas junior better than Marvin Harrison junior, right, right,

588

Speaker 3: fuck the forty nine ers with Kyle, I can't believe

622
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 3: Mahomes is gonna lose the Super Bowl. And he storms

623
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 3: out of the room crying like it's over. I can't

624
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,439
Speaker 3: believe it. I can't believe it.

625
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 4: And then of course, all of a sudden, it's too

626
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 4: jet wasp but as zoom and zoom and zoom, and

627
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 4: he's back in the room and he's.

628
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 3: Like, yeah, Homes ooh, And I was like, man, what

629
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 3: happened to the Shanahans. Holy crap? Right, So we've had

630
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 3: a lot of fun with that.

631
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 4: I've told Kyle Shanahan that he's gotten on him a

632
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 4: little bit too.

633
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 2: So his friendship extends out to yeah, his friendship extends

634
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 2: out to don't beat Mahomes exactly.

635
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:51,640
Speaker 3: Right, exactly right.

636
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 4: And that's where Kyle Shanahan and the Shanahan family are

637
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 4: very cool and realizing like, hey, he's a kid, he's

638
00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 4: got an idyl that he loves, and we understand it

639
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 4: so funny stories.

640
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 2: Always Taylor, get the Sun on the show, on the show.

641
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 2: I want his quarterback rankings. Get him on the show

642
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 2: next week, and get him with Billy if you get

643
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 2: because Billy will have a field day with him. Two

644
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 2: quick quarterbacks before you get out of here, I want

645
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 2: your thoughts, Caleb Williams, what do you think this year?

646
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:20,399
Speaker 4: I'm expecting big yeah things. Yes, I mean I'm a

647
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 4: Kleb Williams fan. I wasn't perfect last year, but as

648
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,080
Speaker 4: I've told you during the season and stuff, I saw

649
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 4: things from him where.

650
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 3: I go that's special. Like there's not many people in

651
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 3: football that can do some of the stuff he can do.

652
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 4: I think now with Ben Johnson, a better environment for

653
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 4: quarterback play and learning and the talent around him, like

654
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 4: Caleb Williams is a guy that has the type of

655
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 4: talent to me to jump up there with some of

656
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 4: those core four guys that we talked about. I don't

657
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 4: know if it happens this year, but I will be

658
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 4: more shocked if it's not a good year. Then I

659
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,719
Speaker 4: would be shocked if it was a bad year. Okay,

660
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 4: I will be shocked if it's bad. I expect Caleb

661
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 4: Williams and the bear to be a pain in the

662
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 4: ass in the NFC.

663
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 2: Bo Nicks, I think bow Knicks has a chance to

664
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 2: be special. He has a chance to be in that

665
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 2: top four someday. What do you think I do too?

666
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 4: I mean Drew Brees Junior over there, That's what I've

667
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 4: kind of joked around and call him all the day.

668
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 3: But he can run, Yeah, he can run. He can run.

669
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 4: His arms more powerful and explosive than people realize. I

670
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 4: know from knowing some people out there in Denver that

671
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,360
Speaker 4: they're very excited about their football team.

672
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 3: They already had one.

673
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 4: Of the best defenses in football. They've added a few

674
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 4: players on that side, and you go, ooh, that could

675
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 4: be special. And then the offense year two, Sean Payton

676
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 4: now gonna be able to put more on the plate

677
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 4: to bow Knicks more at the line of scrimmage, really

678
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 4: wire him the way he sees fit. I would be

679
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 4: shocked if that doesn't get better. And Denver's a major

680
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 4: player in the ANFC. The crazy thing that they're dealing with,

681
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 4: and I've said this on my show a few times,

682
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 4: it might be the greatest four coaches in one division

683
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 4: in the history of.

684
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: Football, no doubt.

685
00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 4: I mean that's where it's no easy pickings to just say, oh, yeah,

686
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 4: they're gonna win the AFC West or getting the playoffs.

687
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 4: I mean, holy crap. When Pete Carroll and the Raiders

688
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 4: are the fourth team, that's when you know there's some

689
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 4: some damn good stuff in the rest of the division.

690
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 2: What are you expecting? You you played quarterback at Texas.

691
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 2: There's a picture behind me at you coming off the field,

692
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 2: a young Chris Sims hanging out with Matthew Mcconiughey, do

693
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 2: you remember that picture?

694
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 1: Do you remember that game you did?

695
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 3: That was? That was Texas?

696
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 4: That was my senior year Texas, A and m right

697
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 4: last game on the field, really and we just you know,

698
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 4: we whooped the crap out of them, fifty three twenty four.

699
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 3: I want to say, yep. And yeah, he was.

700
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 4: He was on the sidelines of a lot of a

701
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 4: lot of home games and was always great to me.

702
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 4: Really couldn't have been more supportive. So he was really

703
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 4: cool to be around.

704
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 1: Are you excited for Arch?

705
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 3: What am I.

706
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 4: Excited for Arch? I'm so excited for Texas in general. Yeah,

707
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 4: just the team, the way it's set up. I know,

708
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 4: they got it rolling.

709
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 3: We're spent.

710
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 4: Like we joked about at the end of the college season,

711
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 4: and remember I told you college football was gonna start.

712
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 3: To change rules.

713
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: Yeahcause they knew.

714
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 4: Texas and Notre Dame in Michigan and Ohio they're gonna

715
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 4: outspend everybody.

716
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 3: Yep.

717
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,440
Speaker 4: We made a big deal about twenty million of Ohio

718
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 4: state last year. Texas is spending forty yeah, and it

719
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 4: ain't shit to us, all right. It's literally like, wait,

720
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 4: oh wait, we got forty in a pocket right here.

721
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 3: Boom, there you go. Right, So that's where it's scared.

722
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 4: And that's where you hear all the big time durs

723
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 4: in the SEC because they're worried about the rest of

724
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 4: the conference.

725
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 3: They're like, we're gonna change the rules. We gotta get

726
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 3: a salary cap, we gotta get the.

727
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 4: Government involved to change the whole landscape. Yeah, they're scared,

728
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 4: they know. And the Longhorns got it all and they'll

729
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 4: spend the money. And the coach is awesome, and we

730
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 4: got a quarterback that we looks like he's gonna be awesome,

731
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 4: and the type of quarterback where all the other kids

732
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 4: in the country go, I want to go to that

733
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 4: school and play with that quarterback and that's where it

734
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 4: can be awesome. And yeah, I think it's big things

735
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,640

Speaker 4: what I did.

772
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 3: And here's why it all went downhill.

773
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 4: So this is where, like in Delta Airlines, the airline

774
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 4: industry is archaic and some of the stuff they fucking

775

Speaker 4: do it's like embarrassing. We're about to pull away from

776
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,880

Speaker 4: We're gonna get into Atlanta ten to fifteen minutes early

778
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 4: comes back on the speaker like two minutes later. He's like, well,

779
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 4: the guy that does the fuel log wrote down the

780
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 4: wrong number on the paper, so we gotta wait for

781
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,799
Speaker 4: him to come back. And you know me, I wanted

782
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:15,839
Speaker 4: to stand up and be like, are you serious We're

783
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:17,760
Speaker 4: waiting for a guy with a clipboard in a paper.

784
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,719
Speaker 4: It's two twenty twenty five. We can't just like take

785
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 4: a picture of the miles and put it into an

786
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,880
Speaker 4: iPad and it goes into a system, like we're gonna wait,

787
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 4: like it's nineteen seventy two, Like come back down and

788
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 4: write it down for us. We waited for thirty minutes

789
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 4: for that fucking guy. And then you know how LaGuardia

790
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 4: Airport works. Now we're number sixty in the takeoffline to

791
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 4: take off because we've missed our time, and then storms

792
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 4: rolled in and so I sat there forever. I'm so

793
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 4: sick of flying. I hate the airlines. I hate him.

794
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:49,440
Speaker 4: That's such a bullshit excuse.

795
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:51,399
Speaker 2: By the way, I mean, no one has to walk

796
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 2: anything to anybody.

797
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 3: It's actually incredible, it's incredible.

798
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 1: I want your son on next week and perhaps a

799
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,759
Speaker 1: weekly segment. That's okay, is there.

800
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 2: Any chance your dad walked off of the field after

801
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 2: winning the Super Bowl and he thought, and maybe even

802
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 2: said it out loud, I'm fucking better than John Elway.

803
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 4: No, no, there's not, there's not. But I guarantee he

804
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 4: might have walked off. He was in the Disney World,

805
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 4: and then he might have been like, I'm a fucking man,

806
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:19,280
Speaker 4: right he said.

807
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 1: That, Well, one guy won the MVP and it wasn't

808
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 1: John Elway, So no.

809
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 3: It wasn't. But let me just say like that, that's where.

810
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,879
Speaker 4: And I use my dad for these examples a lot

811
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:28,840
Speaker 4: because I just want to show people that there's not

812
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 4: biased and this stuff has been personally involved in my

813
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 4: life and I can overcome these things. And my dad,

814
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 4: who was awesome at football, can also be like, hey,

815
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,879
Speaker 4: I was awesome, but this guy was awesomer, all right,

816
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:45,560
Speaker 4: all right, So there and to this day, like, I mean,

817
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,040
Speaker 4: I know how special he thought John Elway was.

818
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 3: Going into that Super Bowl. I mean we we all did,

819
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:51,280
Speaker 3: of course.

820
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,959
Speaker 4: And then to this day, every now and then he'll

821
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 4: watch back the game or whatever and he'll just be like,

822
00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:01,320
Speaker 4: holy crap, I mean, damn, that first half, John Elway,

823
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 4: Holy crap, I mean we're we're lucky we won the

824
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 4: damn game.

825
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 3: Holy shit, John Elway. Hole. I mean so that just

826
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 3: we at one point in the.

827
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,959
Speaker 4: Football world, we could go like, even though this team

828
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 4: was winning, we know this quarterback's better, but we I

829
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 4: blame Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. They changed that forever

830
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,879
Speaker 4: because everybody just thought, well, the team, it's always them,

831
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:24,919
Speaker 4: it's got to be them, blah blah blah, and it's

832
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 4: just got to be winning. There to me change that narrative, right,

833
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 4: which will.

834
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:29,360
Speaker 3: You know me?

835
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 4: I want to go, But wait, New England when they

836
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 4: didn't have Tom Brady, they were fifteen and five with

837
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 4: other guys playing, but it was a team.

838
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 3: But they're the ones that change that narrative.

839
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 4: And where we just go quarterback quarterback, quarterback, quarterback, quarterback, quarterback,

840
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 4: And that's where it's gone a little overboard in my opinion.

841
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 1: What does Father's Day look like for you this Sunday?

842
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 1: Chris silence?

843
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 3: Yeh know, it's Father's Day. You hit your busy part two, right,

844
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 3: that's what I call it.

845
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 4: Yes, Yes, I wake up and my wife tells me

846
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 4: what we're doing on the day for me right, and

847
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:04,160
Speaker 4: your kid ripped your quarterback. So it's like yeah, oh yeah,

00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,080
