1
00:00:04,404 --> 00:00:07,244
Speaker 1: Ten Takes is a production of the NFL in partnership

2
00:00:07,244 --> 00:00:18,884
Speaker 1: with iHeartRadio.

3
00:00:24,484 --> 00:00:27,524
Speaker 2: This is the most interesting season from Mahomes and the

4
00:00:27,604 --> 00:00:31,884
Speaker 2: Chiefs in years, potentially even ever, because there's so much change.

5
00:00:31,924 --> 00:00:33,964
Speaker 2: The last time we saw Patrick Mahomes play a game,

6
00:00:34,164 --> 00:00:36,164
Speaker 2: he got sillacked in the Super Bowl and said, I.

7
00:00:36,084 --> 00:00:37,324
Speaker 3: Didn't play to my standard.

8
00:00:37,644 --> 00:00:39,684
Speaker 2: He threw an interception for the first time in almost

9
00:00:39,724 --> 00:00:43,524
Speaker 2: three hundred throws. Patrick Mahomes threw his first career playoff

10
00:00:43,644 --> 00:00:46,364
Speaker 2: pick six in twenty one playoff games. He had never

11
00:00:46,444 --> 00:00:49,084
Speaker 2: done that, and the Chiefs were broken in that game.

12
00:00:49,404 --> 00:00:52,804
Speaker 2: Now they show up and Patrick Mahomes' number one wing

13
00:00:52,924 --> 00:00:55,604
Speaker 2: man is going to be thirty six years old, his

14
00:00:55,724 --> 00:00:59,804
Speaker 2: number one wide receiver is facing a suspension. Arguably his

15
00:00:59,884 --> 00:01:02,724
Speaker 2: best alignement is gone. And I think some of the

16
00:01:02,764 --> 00:01:05,684
Speaker 2: invincibility has gone. I think a little bit of the

17
00:01:05,884 --> 00:01:09,164
Speaker 2: aura is gone. And we know that the three pete

18
00:01:09,204 --> 00:01:11,284
Speaker 2: is gone. There's no three pee, there's no Chiefs pete.

19
00:01:11,284 --> 00:01:15,844
Speaker 2: That's all gone. What's not gone, though, is that the dynasty.

20
00:01:16,044 --> 00:01:18,004
Speaker 2: They are still in the middle of a dynasty. Guys,

21
00:01:18,084 --> 00:01:20,804
Speaker 2: Joe Montana didn't win three in a row. Terry Bradshaw didn't,

22
00:01:20,844 --> 00:01:25,084
Speaker 2: Tom Brady, Troy Aikman. It's still the Chiefs. They lost

23
00:01:25,124 --> 00:01:28,124
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. They were still in the Super Bowl.

24
00:01:28,284 --> 00:01:30,284
Speaker 2: And here's the measure of the Chiefs right now. All

25
00:01:30,324 --> 00:01:32,284
Speaker 2: those things I said about this guy's gone, and this

26
00:01:32,284 --> 00:01:36,524
Speaker 2: guy's old, and this guy this the Chiefs Open, Chargers Eagles,

27
00:01:36,964 --> 00:01:39,004
Speaker 2: Chargers Eagles, it's not great.

28
00:01:39,364 --> 00:01:41,204
Speaker 3: Would anybody have the.

29
00:01:41,244 --> 00:01:43,684
Speaker 2: Gall to say I think the Chiefs are going to

30
00:01:43,724 --> 00:01:46,404
Speaker 2: be going two to start the season? Hell no, and

31
00:01:46,404 --> 00:01:49,204
Speaker 2: that's playing against the Super Bowl champ and a continually

32
00:01:49,244 --> 00:01:52,324
Speaker 2: ascending Chargers team coach by Jim Harbaugh. I would never

33
00:01:52,364 --> 00:01:54,764
Speaker 2: say that about them. Despite all that I still listed

34
00:01:54,924 --> 00:01:57,084
Speaker 2: there's still the Chiefs. They are still in the middle

35
00:01:57,124 --> 00:01:59,924
Speaker 2: of a dynasty. Just a lot has felt like it's

36
00:02:00,044 --> 00:02:02,524
Speaker 2: changed outside of that since that Super Bowl. And it's

37
00:02:02,524 --> 00:02:04,684
Speaker 2: the most interesting season I can remember from them years.

38
00:02:05,964 --> 00:02:07,084
Speaker 3: Listen, the West is tough.

39
00:02:07,484 --> 00:02:10,244
Speaker 2: You're hearing all this great buzz from Pete Carroll's Raiders camp,

40
00:02:10,524 --> 00:02:12,764
Speaker 2: and then the other two are kind of self explanatory.

41
00:02:13,124 --> 00:02:15,644
Speaker 2: It's it's really tough, but I get the buzz just

42
00:02:15,684 --> 00:02:18,364
Speaker 2: watching that. I mean, you, guys, Jim Harbaugh can be

43
00:02:18,484 --> 00:02:21,164
Speaker 2: an unwieldy guy. Because he's eccentric. You guys did an

44
00:02:21,164 --> 00:02:23,404
Speaker 2: amazing job with it. There was a comfort there. I

45
00:02:23,444 --> 00:02:25,364
Speaker 2: got fired up talking about that running game. He said

46
00:02:25,444 --> 00:02:26,724
Speaker 2: mush like six times.

47
00:02:26,764 --> 00:02:28,204
Speaker 3: That settled in.

48
00:02:28,644 --> 00:02:30,684
Speaker 2: And you know, last year was just the welcome back

49
00:02:30,684 --> 00:02:33,684
Speaker 2: to the NFL, the year for Jim Harbaugh get everything settled,

50
00:02:33,724 --> 00:02:35,684
Speaker 2: and of course ahead of schedule he makes the playoffs.

51
00:02:36,004 --> 00:02:38,364
Speaker 2: I think this year is when it's really like, all right,

52
00:02:38,404 --> 00:02:40,404
Speaker 2: now I got my guys. Now I'm going to reshape

53
00:02:40,444 --> 00:02:42,524
Speaker 2: the running game. Now my message is set in. It's

54
00:02:42,564 --> 00:02:44,564
Speaker 2: like it's year two. It's different. He's like a called

55
00:02:44,604 --> 00:02:46,764
Speaker 2: rookie quarterback, except he's a coach.

56
00:02:46,884 --> 00:02:51,244
Speaker 3: Now. It's like in my vision, so I'll call it

57
00:02:51,284 --> 00:02:51,924
Speaker 3: what it is. Guys.

58
00:02:51,924 --> 00:02:54,884
Speaker 2: A week one, they're playing the Chiefs, and like, what

59
00:02:54,964 --> 00:02:57,524
Speaker 2: do you got, coach? I love Mush, and I love

60
00:02:57,724 --> 00:03:00,364
Speaker 2: talking about how great Herbert is, but you got to

61
00:03:00,404 --> 00:03:02,604
Speaker 2: beat that that other head coach with the mustache across

62
00:03:02,644 --> 00:03:03,084
Speaker 2: the field.

63
00:03:03,124 --> 00:03:04,804
Speaker 3: I love the interview.

64
00:03:05,164 --> 00:03:07,444
Speaker 2: There's a lot to prove for the Chargers, but there's

65
00:03:07,484 --> 00:03:11,564
Speaker 2: a lot of excitement to him. We're certain givens for

66
00:03:11,604 --> 00:03:13,364
Speaker 2: the Cowboys seed He's gonna be great.

67
00:03:13,724 --> 00:03:16,444
Speaker 3: I think that's gonna be great if he's healthy. Across

68
00:03:16,444 --> 00:03:17,844
Speaker 3: the board, there's things you can count on.

69
00:03:18,124 --> 00:03:20,404
Speaker 2: The running game is interesting to me, but more importantly,

70
00:03:20,404 --> 00:03:24,044
Speaker 2: I think, really, if you're looking for a difference, look

71
00:03:24,044 --> 00:03:25,964
Speaker 2: at the biggest difference that they brought in.

72
00:03:26,044 --> 00:03:27,764
Speaker 3: I think George Pickens.

73
00:03:28,084 --> 00:03:31,484
Speaker 2: Is the most pivotal player right now on the Cowboys,

74
00:03:31,524 --> 00:03:32,444
Speaker 2: Like that's going to be.

75
00:03:32,404 --> 00:03:34,684
Speaker 3: The difference between do they win in the playoffs or

76
00:03:34,684 --> 00:03:35,164
Speaker 3: do they not.

77
00:03:36,164 --> 00:03:38,404
Speaker 2: I'll be candid as you guys know. It was just

78
00:03:38,444 --> 00:03:41,324
Speaker 2: at Steelers camp. I talked to somebody with the team,

79
00:03:41,404 --> 00:03:44,004
Speaker 2: and I walked away with the belief that, let's just say,

80
00:03:44,644 --> 00:03:47,044
Speaker 2: no one was shedding tears in the hallway of the Steelers'

81
00:03:47,044 --> 00:03:48,644
Speaker 2: facility when George Pickens was traded.

82
00:03:49,244 --> 00:03:51,604
Speaker 3: I think there might have been a sigh of release.

83
00:03:52,084 --> 00:03:55,004
Speaker 3: I don't think it was a relationship that would needed

84
00:03:55,004 --> 00:03:56,044
Speaker 3: to continue for.

85
00:03:56,044 --> 00:03:58,204
Speaker 2: A lot of reasons, and I don't think those reasons

86
00:03:58,204 --> 00:03:59,164
Speaker 2: had to do with football.

87
00:03:59,604 --> 00:04:01,124
Speaker 3: Fine, we've seen it a million times.

88
00:04:01,124 --> 00:04:03,244
Speaker 2: You get a fresh start, new atmosphere and new teammates,

89
00:04:03,284 --> 00:04:03,764
Speaker 2: you light.

90
00:04:03,644 --> 00:04:06,044
Speaker 3: It up, and that's a history. Is that the case?

91
00:04:06,724 --> 00:04:08,684
Speaker 2: Is this guy just plugging play a step in He's

92
00:04:08,724 --> 00:04:09,804
Speaker 2: gonna give you eighty five.

93
00:04:09,644 --> 00:04:11,844
Speaker 3: Catches as your number two receiver and light it up.

94
00:04:11,884 --> 00:04:14,444
Speaker 2: And I don't know, but I know that they need

95
00:04:14,524 --> 00:04:17,804
Speaker 2: him because Dak and CD is not enough, especially with

96
00:04:17,884 --> 00:04:19,084
Speaker 2: the running game is unproven.

97
00:04:19,204 --> 00:04:22,204
Speaker 3: So we take the Givens away. I know that CD

98
00:04:22,324 --> 00:04:23,564
Speaker 3: lamp he is incredible.

99
00:04:23,884 --> 00:04:26,844
Speaker 2: I don't know if George Pickens is incredible on the Cowboys.

100
00:04:26,844 --> 00:04:28,884
Speaker 2: And if I don't know if George Pickens is reliable

101
00:04:28,884 --> 00:04:31,164
Speaker 2: on the Cowboys, and if that sounds like I'm doubting

102
00:04:31,204 --> 00:04:32,684
Speaker 2: him being a skeptical, He's earned it.

103
00:04:32,764 --> 00:04:33,524
Speaker 3: So we'll find out.

104
00:04:33,564 --> 00:04:36,524
Speaker 2: The most pivotal Cowboys player is the newest Cowboys player.

105
00:04:37,564 --> 00:04:37,724
Speaker 3: You know.

106
00:04:37,764 --> 00:04:40,964
Speaker 2: When Caleb came out and said this the four thousand

107
00:04:41,044 --> 00:04:45,004
Speaker 2: yard thing, I was a little bit disappointed because personally,

108
00:04:45,324 --> 00:04:46,844
Speaker 2: I don't care about that number.

109
00:04:46,924 --> 00:04:48,364
Speaker 3: I think it is really meaningless.

110
00:04:48,404 --> 00:04:51,644
Speaker 2: And for context, Josh Allen last year was the MVP

111
00:04:51,844 --> 00:04:54,524
Speaker 2: to not throw for four thousand yards. Jalen Hurts won

112
00:04:54,564 --> 00:04:57,044
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl did not throw for three thousand yards.

113
00:04:57,124 --> 00:04:58,044
Speaker 3: You can go up and down.

114
00:04:57,924 --> 00:04:59,924
Speaker 2: The list that the four thousand and five thousand Thay,

115
00:05:00,244 --> 00:05:01,084
Speaker 2: it's over right, and.

116
00:05:01,044 --> 00:05:02,724
Speaker 3: Yet I like that he did it.

117
00:05:02,764 --> 00:05:04,164
Speaker 2: Now that I've had a second to think about it,

118
00:05:04,324 --> 00:05:06,884
Speaker 2: because it's not just about statistics and doing this and

119
00:05:06,924 --> 00:05:07,324
Speaker 2: doing that.

120
00:05:07,684 --> 00:05:10,284
Speaker 3: It's about making the dumb joke go away.

121
00:05:10,484 --> 00:05:13,604
Speaker 2: It's about the meme going away, and it's about you know,

122
00:05:13,724 --> 00:05:14,604
Speaker 2: the Bears are the only.

123
00:05:14,524 --> 00:05:16,804
Speaker 3: Team blah blah blah blah. Shut up. Yes, we know that.

124
00:05:16,844 --> 00:05:19,924
Speaker 2: We've heard about it for years, and Caleb represents change

125
00:05:20,164 --> 00:05:23,724
Speaker 2: and renaissance and getting rid of all that dirty laundry

126
00:05:23,724 --> 00:05:26,084
Speaker 2: and garbage that the Bears have littered the floor with

127
00:05:26,204 --> 00:05:29,044
Speaker 2: for years. So if Caleb Williams wants to throw for

128
00:05:29,084 --> 00:05:31,804
Speaker 2: four thousand yards so that he never has to hear

129
00:05:31,884 --> 00:05:34,204
Speaker 2: again that no Bears quarterback has ever thrown for four

130
00:05:34,244 --> 00:05:37,244
Speaker 2: thousand yards, God bless him, do it. I hope he

131
00:05:37,324 --> 00:05:40,164
Speaker 2: does it. I hope everything about it happens. Because there

132
00:05:40,204 --> 00:05:44,564
Speaker 2: are too many things clinging to this team, too many parasites,

133
00:05:44,964 --> 00:05:47,964
Speaker 2: too many things that just drag them down and worry

134
00:05:48,004 --> 00:05:50,884
Speaker 2: their reputation and get the fans upset, and the dumb

135
00:05:50,924 --> 00:05:53,764
Speaker 2: thing about four thousand yards is one of them. So

136
00:05:54,284 --> 00:05:56,524
Speaker 2: I don't think it's important you can win the MVP

137
00:05:56,644 --> 00:05:58,524
Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl this year and not throw for

138
00:05:58,564 --> 00:06:01,684
Speaker 2: four thousand yards. But it is also just flicking off

139
00:06:01,724 --> 00:06:05,204
Speaker 2: one of those barnacles that cling to the Chicago organization.

140
00:06:05,604 --> 00:06:09,564
Speaker 2: And that is his job. Caleb's job. New bears, new future,

141
00:06:09,684 --> 00:06:12,604
Speaker 2: new everything. If it's important to him, then I completely

142
00:06:12,604 --> 00:06:14,844
Speaker 2: support it. And if he can stand up and he

143
00:06:14,884 --> 00:06:17,164
Speaker 2: can follow this whiz head coach he's got, he will

144
00:06:17,204 --> 00:06:19,884
Speaker 2: do it. Year two for quarterbacks is the new year five.

145
00:06:20,204 --> 00:06:22,524
Speaker 2: Just just look around at what's going on. You have

146
00:06:22,604 --> 00:06:24,804
Speaker 2: to keep up. Joe Burrow was in the super Bowl

147
00:06:24,844 --> 00:06:25,644
Speaker 2: in his second year.

148
00:06:26,244 --> 00:06:27,404
Speaker 3: All these guys that he's.

149
00:06:27,244 --> 00:06:29,004
Speaker 2: Competing with are going to be competing with.

150
00:06:29,364 --> 00:06:31,044
Speaker 3: It's you don't wait, there's no It's not.

151
00:06:31,044 --> 00:06:32,404
Speaker 2: Like when I was a kid and you sit for

152
00:06:32,444 --> 00:06:33,884
Speaker 2: a backup for a couple of years, then there's a

153
00:06:33,884 --> 00:06:35,644
Speaker 2: warm up year and another warm up year, and now

154
00:06:35,684 --> 00:06:36,484
Speaker 2: you're in your prime.

155
00:06:36,684 --> 00:06:38,844
Speaker 3: No no, no, no, no, that's all changed. And that all

156
00:06:38,924 --> 00:06:40,164
Speaker 3: changed when Mahomes.

157
00:06:39,764 --> 00:06:41,804
Speaker 2: Took the field in his second year and was about

158
00:06:41,844 --> 00:06:44,204
Speaker 2: to be Brady in the title game. The standards are different.

159
00:06:44,484 --> 00:06:46,124
Speaker 2: I don't care that he is a new coach. I

160
00:06:46,164 --> 00:06:48,324
Speaker 2: don't care that he has to gel with his new players.

161
00:06:48,644 --> 00:06:52,484
Speaker 2: It's time you win in your second year or we

162
00:06:52,604 --> 00:06:53,724
Speaker 2: start looking so.

163
00:06:54,084 --> 00:06:56,404
Speaker 3: Yes, Caleb has all the tools. But no, no, no.

164
00:06:56,764 --> 00:06:58,044
Speaker 3: If you were to tell me that Caleb.

165
00:06:57,884 --> 00:07:00,364
Speaker 2: Williamster's for forty five hundred yards this year and the

166
00:07:00,404 --> 00:07:04,164
Speaker 2: Bears are seven and ten, that is a bitterly disappointed year.

167
00:07:04,284 --> 00:07:05,884
Speaker 3: This is a playoff.

168
00:07:05,404 --> 00:07:07,124
Speaker 2: Season for the Bears, and anything less of it is

169
00:07:07,124 --> 00:07:09,604
Speaker 2: like what are we doing? Something we would do here

170
00:07:09,604 --> 00:07:11,924
Speaker 2: in Good Morning Football would be like what is this

171
00:07:12,044 --> 00:07:14,644
Speaker 2: team slogan for twenty twenty five?

172
00:07:14,844 --> 00:07:16,924
Speaker 3: Like what would what would be their motto? Like on

173
00:07:16,964 --> 00:07:18,164
Speaker 3: the media guide And for.

174
00:07:18,124 --> 00:07:21,124
Speaker 2: The Cleveland Browns, it's just the twenty twenty five Cleveland Browns.

175
00:07:21,364 --> 00:07:24,284
Speaker 3: We have Miles Garrett, Like that's that's it.

176
00:07:24,284 --> 00:07:26,724
Speaker 2: It's just that they have Miles Garrett and they have

177
00:07:26,764 --> 00:07:29,324
Speaker 2: a good coach and everything else is like, I don't

178
00:07:29,324 --> 00:07:30,204
Speaker 2: know what we're doing here?

179
00:07:30,964 --> 00:07:31,964
Speaker 3: How do I dissect this?

180
00:07:32,844 --> 00:07:36,244
Speaker 2: Mister Haslam talked about Deshaun Watson and he's working his

181
00:07:36,284 --> 00:07:37,444
Speaker 2: way through this and looking to that.

182
00:07:37,764 --> 00:07:39,724
Speaker 3: Just a few matter of months ago.

183
00:07:39,724 --> 00:07:43,364
Speaker 2: He's talked about Deshaun Watson and saying, quote, we took

184
00:07:43,364 --> 00:07:46,044
Speaker 2: a big swing and a miss with Deshaun Watson. We

185
00:07:46,164 --> 00:07:48,764
Speaker 2: thought we had a quarterback and we didn't. That's all

186
00:07:48,804 --> 00:07:51,764
Speaker 2: past tense. That's like he's speaking in the like it's over,

187
00:07:52,604 --> 00:07:56,324
Speaker 2: is completely disavowing it in terms of like we're done

188
00:07:56,324 --> 00:07:57,084
Speaker 2: with it, it's over.

189
00:07:57,124 --> 00:07:58,204
Speaker 3: It's like it never happens.

190
00:07:58,604 --> 00:08:00,404
Speaker 2: He also said, we've got to dig ourselves out of

191
00:08:00,404 --> 00:08:00,844
Speaker 2: that hole.

192
00:08:01,524 --> 00:08:01,884
Speaker 3: All right.

193
00:08:02,004 --> 00:08:04,604
Speaker 2: So now there's this who did what in turn of

194
00:08:04,604 --> 00:08:08,084
Speaker 2: who drafted Shador and he says, oh, no, that's not

195
00:08:08,124 --> 00:08:10,284
Speaker 2: going to happen when we talk Friday night. So it's

196
00:08:10,324 --> 00:08:12,804
Speaker 2: basically saying I didn't want to draft Shador. Trust me,

197
00:08:12,884 --> 00:08:15,324
Speaker 2: you think I did, I didn't. I let the GM

198
00:08:15,404 --> 00:08:18,444
Speaker 2: do that. So now the franchise quarterback is disavowed, the

199
00:08:18,444 --> 00:08:19,724
Speaker 2: famous rookie quarterback is.

200
00:08:19,764 --> 00:08:20,724
Speaker 3: That's not going to happen.

201
00:08:20,924 --> 00:08:22,524
Speaker 2: I'm going to do the Browns fans a favor and

202
00:08:22,564 --> 00:08:25,284
Speaker 2: not even mention the rookie running back because that's completely

203
00:08:25,324 --> 00:08:29,324
Speaker 2: unsavory and terrible. But they do have Miles Garrett and

204
00:08:29,404 --> 00:08:33,284
Speaker 2: they do have Kevin Stefanski. We've had questions about this

205
00:08:33,404 --> 00:08:35,084
Speaker 2: team for months.

206
00:08:35,764 --> 00:08:37,044
Speaker 3: There he is. He looks great.

207
00:08:37,204 --> 00:08:39,804
Speaker 2: Just put that on the scoreboard, put that in the standings,

208
00:08:39,804 --> 00:08:41,964
Speaker 2: because they do have him, and they paid everything not

209
00:08:42,084 --> 00:08:44,524
Speaker 2: nailed down to keep him. I don't know where this

210
00:08:44,644 --> 00:08:46,444
Speaker 2: team is headed. I know they have a coach and

211
00:08:46,484 --> 00:08:49,284
Speaker 2: a pass rusher. They don't have a running back. They

212
00:08:49,284 --> 00:08:52,804
Speaker 2: don't really have any clarity on quarterback. It's hope springs

213
00:08:52,804 --> 00:08:55,364
Speaker 2: eternal and this time of year, and let's go and

214
00:08:55,444 --> 00:08:55,884
Speaker 2: let's win.

215
00:08:56,124 --> 00:08:57,484
Speaker 3: I just don't know where we're going.

216
00:08:57,564 --> 00:09:00,884
Speaker 2: And normally, guys, when the owner comes in, it's to

217
00:09:01,084 --> 00:09:04,764
Speaker 2: shed clarity and to set the map for this season.

218
00:09:04,964 --> 00:09:08,484
Speaker 2: And you're supposed to walk away from that session feeling like, Okay,

219
00:09:08,764 --> 00:09:10,844
Speaker 2: all right, we can do I don't know.

220
00:09:10,964 --> 00:09:12,364
Speaker 3: I know they have a good pass rush and a

221
00:09:12,364 --> 00:09:12,764
Speaker 3: good coach.

222
00:09:12,804 --> 00:09:14,964
Speaker 2: That the only answer to any question I know about

223
00:09:14,964 --> 00:09:19,284
Speaker 2: this team, FDR. And I'm gonna go to nineteen thirty

224
00:09:19,324 --> 00:09:23,524
Speaker 2: three Franklin Dell and Or roosevelt inaugurial inauguration in which

225
00:09:23,564 --> 00:09:27,004
Speaker 2: he told the American people the only thing we have

226
00:09:27,164 --> 00:09:29,884
Speaker 2: to fear is fear itself.

227
00:09:29,964 --> 00:09:31,484
Speaker 3: And I'm going to say this about the New York

228
00:09:31,524 --> 00:09:33,844
Speaker 3: Giants now. FDR was saying, listen.

229
00:09:33,644 --> 00:09:36,684
Speaker 2: We have the resources to be successful as a nation.

230
00:09:37,204 --> 00:09:40,644
Speaker 2: We are just crippled by anxiety and fear. Rise up,

231
00:09:40,844 --> 00:09:43,764
Speaker 2: United States. Let's be a strong country. And people went

232
00:09:43,844 --> 00:09:45,964
Speaker 2: nuts for it. I look at the New York Giants. Yes,

233
00:09:46,124 --> 00:09:49,044
Speaker 2: maybe you have a starting quarterback on his last chance. Yes,

234
00:09:49,124 --> 00:09:51,164
Speaker 2: maybe you have a head coach on his last chance.

235
00:09:51,444 --> 00:09:53,404
Speaker 2: The only thing you have to fear is fear itself.

236
00:09:53,444 --> 00:09:55,204
Speaker 2: You're not afraid of the Eagles. You're not afraid of

237
00:09:55,204 --> 00:09:57,444
Speaker 2: the Copeges. You're not afraid of the Commanders. You the

238
00:09:57,564 --> 00:10:01,124
Speaker 2: New York Giants have the pieces to win this year.

239
00:10:01,364 --> 00:10:04,124
Speaker 2: You have pieces with experience, with his talent, with coaching.

240
00:10:04,364 --> 00:10:07,564
Speaker 2: Brian Dable has won in the playoffs before. He can

241
00:10:07,644 --> 00:10:10,564
Speaker 2: do it again. Just don't be afraid to do it.

242
00:10:10,724 --> 00:10:13,204
Speaker 3: Now. You have offense, you have defense.

243
00:10:12,844 --> 00:10:14,964
Speaker 2: You have quarterbacks, you have leadership, you have a fan

244
00:10:15,044 --> 00:10:15,684
Speaker 2: base that is.

245
00:10:15,844 --> 00:10:16,764
Speaker 3: Dying for it.

246
00:10:17,324 --> 00:10:19,724
Speaker 2: Don't be afraid because the only thing you have to

247
00:10:19,764 --> 00:10:22,124
Speaker 2: fear New York Giants is fear itself.

248
00:10:23,244 --> 00:10:25,084
Speaker 3: Three reasons why you do it won the money.

249
00:10:25,124 --> 00:10:28,404
Speaker 2: Obviously, to Trey Hendrickson's like a lunch paal type of guy.

250
00:10:28,444 --> 00:10:30,164
Speaker 2: He wants to be around. He likes to be with

251
00:10:30,204 --> 00:10:32,324
Speaker 2: the guys. He likes to show his face. I think

252
00:10:32,324 --> 00:10:35,244
Speaker 2: that's important to him. But also guys, this is a

253
00:10:35,284 --> 00:10:38,324
Speaker 2: good strategy in terms of the media. When the player

254
00:10:38,404 --> 00:10:41,164
Speaker 2: is there standing on the sideline and you can have

255
00:10:41,284 --> 00:10:43,684
Speaker 2: video of him and you do that shot where you

256
00:10:43,804 --> 00:10:47,724
Speaker 2: pan from him to the head coach, from him to ownership.

257
00:10:47,924 --> 00:10:48,924
Speaker 3: That's very compelling.

258
00:10:49,004 --> 00:10:52,324
Speaker 2: In avenues like ours, you can see him and it's

259
00:10:52,364 --> 00:10:55,444
Speaker 2: on sight unseen. He's off training somewhere in Florida or wherever.

260
00:10:55,684 --> 00:10:58,444
Speaker 2: You don't talk about it as much. It's very similar

261
00:10:58,524 --> 00:11:01,444
Speaker 2: to you if you have a blow up with your

262
00:11:01,484 --> 00:11:03,924
Speaker 2: wife or husband and you got just knocked down, drag

263
00:11:03,924 --> 00:11:04,644
Speaker 2: out when.

264
00:11:04,564 --> 00:11:06,044
Speaker 3: You're sitting there watching TV.

265
00:11:06,164 --> 00:11:08,164
Speaker 2: If they just leave and they're like, I'm out of here,

266
00:11:08,404 --> 00:11:10,564
Speaker 2: out of sight, out of mind. If they're sitting on

267
00:11:10,564 --> 00:11:13,004
Speaker 2: the other end of the couch next to you, sign

268
00:11:13,284 --> 00:11:16,444
Speaker 2: and you feel the tension and you feel the presence,

269
00:11:16,844 --> 00:11:19,364
Speaker 2: I think you're more inspired to resolve it, to turn

270
00:11:19,404 --> 00:11:22,164
Speaker 2: and be like, all right, I'm sorry, let's make amends.

271
00:11:22,324 --> 00:11:24,764
Speaker 2: Trey and the Bengals are now sitting on opposite sides

272
00:11:24,804 --> 00:11:27,084
Speaker 2: of the couch, looking at their phone and signing, and

273
00:11:27,124 --> 00:11:29,204
Speaker 2: that is much more difficult to deal with than if

274
00:11:29,204 --> 00:11:32,204
Speaker 2: they just get the car and drive off. The Jet

275
00:11:32,244 --> 00:11:35,324
Speaker 2: Steelers thing I think week one is hilarious. The fact

276
00:11:35,364 --> 00:11:39,204
Speaker 2: that Rogers begins his Steelers career in Jet Life Stadium,

277
00:11:39,204 --> 00:11:42,084
Speaker 2: as used to call it, I have Rogers versus Sauce.

278
00:11:42,484 --> 00:11:43,724
Speaker 3: I love this. I love that.

279
00:11:43,804 --> 00:11:46,284
Speaker 2: The fact that you're hearing that Sauce Gardner now may

280
00:11:46,364 --> 00:11:49,004
Speaker 2: or may not travel with number one receivers more and more.

281
00:11:49,324 --> 00:11:53,164
Speaker 2: That means, guys, we have Sauce on DK, we have

282
00:11:53,284 --> 00:11:56,204
Speaker 2: Rogers throwing to them. We have Just twenty minutes ago,

283
00:11:56,204 --> 00:11:58,164
Speaker 2: it felt like these two guys were going to Broadway

284
00:11:58,204 --> 00:12:00,444
Speaker 2: plays and hanging out in New York City and best buds.

285
00:12:00,484 --> 00:12:02,884
Speaker 3: And I'm sure they still are. But let's be honest here.

286
00:12:02,884 --> 00:12:05,524
Speaker 2: The real headline matchup is going to be Aaron versus Aaron,

287
00:12:05,564 --> 00:12:08,684
Speaker 2: and that is Rogers versus Glenn. Rogers goes into that

288
00:12:08,804 --> 00:12:12,284
Speaker 2: stadium of the coach GM and brain trust that released

289
00:12:12,364 --> 00:12:14,804
Speaker 2: him for the first time in his career and said

290
00:12:14,804 --> 00:12:15,484
Speaker 2: we're moving on.

291
00:12:15,964 --> 00:12:17,924
Speaker 3: That is perfect. We're not even.

292
00:12:17,764 --> 00:12:19,804
Speaker 2: Giving him a warm up week or warm up month.

293
00:12:20,084 --> 00:12:23,044
Speaker 2: First game at Mett Life in Jersey.

294
00:12:23,124 --> 00:12:25,204
Speaker 4: I love this one, Rogers versus Soft, but you could

295
00:12:25,204 --> 00:12:33,844
Speaker 4: pick fifty of them.

296
00:12:35,284 --> 00:12:38,124
Speaker 1: Ten Takes is a production of the NFL in partnership

297
00:12:38,124 --> 00:12:43,284

299
00:12:46,044 --> 00:12:46,644
Speaker 3: It'll be there,
