25
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: How are we doing? I was going to just do

26
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: a long mailbag at John Middlecoff as the Instagram fire

27
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 1: in those dms. I'm still gonna do that, but turns

28
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: out we had some pretty big news today. Steve Wilkes,

29
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers defensive coordinator, was fired. We got

30
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: to dive into that why it was fired. Some names

31
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: out there. Obviously there's a guy William Belichick and Mike

32
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: Vrabel could go those guys. Is there any amount of

33
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 1: money that Kyle could get those guys to accept the job?

34
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: I mean, basically be a one year deal with those

35
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 1: fit And then a couple thoughts on dynasties and how

36
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: they're healthy for sports. I wanted to react to everything that.

37
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 1: I'm sure if you're on social media you saw some

38
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: of the clips of the waste management and just when

39
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 1: events kind of jump the shark in terms of rowdiness,

40
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: and a couple thoughts there. But like I said, we'll

41
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 1: also have a big mail bag, and this will be

42
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 1: the last podcast of the week, just to take a

43
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: couple of days to gather ourselves after a long season.

44
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: I'm kind of spent. I'm sure the people working on

45
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: this podcast, from James to Christian to Adam. We've got

46
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: a lot of guys that do a lot of work here.

47
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: Just take a couple of days to take a deep

48
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,079
Speaker 1: breath and relax, and then we will hit the ground running.

49
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,839
Speaker 1: Plans to go to the combine here in a couple

50
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: of weeks, and we'll just keep firing on all cylinders.

51
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: I put it on Instagram and on Twitter some my

52
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: golf bet for Riviera. I was like, you know, take

53
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: the week off. Then I realized I'm not taking the

54
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: week off. The only way to battle back after some

55
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: of my big football losses is to keep on swinging,

56
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: and that's what we will do. So Cam Young Ludwig

57
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: Er guys, I'm sprinkled. Top fives, top tens tend to win.

58
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: But Jason day two, he's had a lot of success here.

59
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: Top ten guy up right now. On the old internet

60
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 1: streams you can find on social media, it's just my

61
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: name all the social media. I just use Instagram and Twitter.

62
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: But other than that, if you listen on Collins Feed,

63
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 1: make sure you subscribe to the podcast as well as

64

Speaker 1: our YouTube channel. We put all this stuff video wise

65
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: up on the YouTube channel, which is just three and

66
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: out John Middlecoff Fire in there. We'll have some golf

67
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: videos as the summer and spring fires on us and

68
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: the sun comes out as well. We got got some

69
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: ideas in the hopper. But before we dive in, let's

70
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: tell you about my friends and they happen to be

71
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,760

00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,400

00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 1: download the app. When you do. Do you want to

76
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: the corner. Do you want to go to spring training

77
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 1: in Florida? In Arizona? I highly recommend it. Went for

Speaker 1: spring training last year for the first time in my life.

84
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 1: start by saying this. I think he would have been

85
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:42,799
Speaker 1: fired whether they won or lost the game on Sunday.

86
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,160
Speaker 1: I truly believe that. I don't think the outcome of

87
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 1: the game determined his fate. I think he would have

88
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: been fired in the middle of the season when Kirk

89
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: Cousins looked like Peyton Manning, when Joe Burrow I was

90
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,479
Speaker 1: in Vegas. I went out with Greg Papa, who's the

91
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 1: voice of the forty nine Ers. He's done it for

92
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 1: like five years. Before that, he was the voice of

93
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: the Raiders for over two decades. This guy has been

94
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: watching football games live for over two and a half

95
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:17,040
Speaker 1: decades as a broadcaster. He and I. I've been going

96
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 1: to these games a lot less longer than him, and

97
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: he said, is the best game he's ever seen live.

98
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, it was incredible. It was It's easily one

99
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: of the better quarterback games I've ever seen on television.

100
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 1: I wasn't at the game. Steve Wilkes was getting shredded

101
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,040
Speaker 1: and I'll never forget in the middle of the season,

102
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan, they made him come from the booth down

103
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: to the sideline and I said, this thing is not

104
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: gonna end well. And then a couple of weeks ago

105
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,159
Speaker 1: before the Super Bowl, Ben Johnson looked like Mike Shanahan

106
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: meets Kyle Shanahan meets Andy Reid and was absolutely carving

107
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 1: him up. It was over, It really was. And listen,

108
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan. His has hired three defensive coordinators, Robert Sala,

109
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 1: Demiko Ryans, and Steve Wilkes. He's two for three. Right.

110
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 1: If he was a professional baseball player, he'd be the

111
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: greatest hitter of all time. If he was a hedge

112
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: fund manager, he'd be one of the richest investors of

113
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 1: all time. Two for three is not bad, Like you

114
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 1: are not gonna go one percent on hiring coaches. He missed.

115
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 1: He simply missed. Once Demiko left, they didn't have anyone

116
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: on the staff to promote. You get credit for Demico,

117
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: who started for him as a quality control coach and

118
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: went on to be a stud head coach. But they

119
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 1: hired Steve Wilkes in a backfire. He wasn't good enough, period,

120
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: point blank, end of story. This is also not an

121
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 1: easy job, right. You're not taking over the Jags. You're

122
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: not taking over the Minnesota Vikings. The expectation here is simple,

123
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: win the biggest games in January and attempt to win

124
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. And they were winning the games in January,

125
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:59,359
Speaker 1: holding on for dear life. Right, It's not all his fault.

126
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 1: And I see this scapegoating. It's not scapegoating. Kyle needs

127
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: to be better too. But Steve Wilkes was not good enough.

128
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: This was not a sustainable problem that was gonna get

129
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: fixed this offseason and moving forward. They had to pull

130
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 1: the trigger. And they had to pull the trigger. Now,

131
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: now we'll get into some of the potential you know

132
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: guys that could fill this spot. But Steve Wilkes wasn't

133
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 1: coming back for the forty nine ers in twenty twenty four,

134
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 1: probably in like week ten, let alone the Super Bowl situation. Right,

135
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 1: But let's face it, in that game, Kyle was not

136
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: perfect by any means. Steve Wilkes as the game went on,

137
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 1: was the mark, and Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes ran

138
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: circles around him. Now listen, his whole thing is, you know,

139
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 1: he's a little bit more of a blitz heavy guy

140
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: that clearly made Kyle uncomfortable. Here's the problem with blitzing.

141
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 1: Steve Spagnola blitzes, they work. Steve Wilkes was blitzing. They

142
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 1: weren't even close to getting home. I don't think anyone,

143
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: any coach has an issue with a quote unquot blitz.

144
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: Do they fucking work? Steve Wilkes's did not in the

145
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. He wasn't close to touching the quarterback. Led

146
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 1: to enormous plays. When Spags blitz he annihilated the quarterback,

147
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: he annihilated the offense. Why, obviously he's a much better coach.

148
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: But like, I don't feel any sympathy. I'm sure some

149
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,119
Speaker 1: of the radical takes that you'll see over the next

150
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: twenty four hours will be outrageous. You can mark that

151
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: in the in the back. But I don't feel bad

152
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: for guys getting paid seven figures to go away. I mean,

153
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,959
Speaker 1: the average coordinator in the NFL defense making two or

154
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 1: three million dollars so usually signs a multi year contract.

155
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: Like a lot of guys, a lot of coaches in

156
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: the sport of football, I mean, are running a pretty

157
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 1: good scam. I'm not saying Steve Wilkes is some awful coach,

158
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: but I mean, I listen this move had to happen.

159
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 1: And when you think about this, the forty nine Ers

160
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: are not the New England Patriots, right. Kyle is the boss,

161
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: He's the guy at the top of the hierarchy. But

162
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: when it comes to the defensive side of the ball,

163
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: this isn't just Belichick not listening to anyone doing whatever

164
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: he wants. Kyle Shanahan would not have made this move

165
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: if Fred Warner and Nick Bosa thought this guy was good.

166
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: Now I'm not saying they went into his office and

167
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 1: said fire the guy, but if they were clearly on

168
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 1: board with them and believers in them, Steve Wilkes would

169
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 1: be the coach. I said this at the time when

170
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: the team was falling apart in the middle of the season.

171
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: They lost three straight games and Steve Wilkes was getting worked.

172
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: Players don't believe in this guy, that they're out on

173
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 1: everything that's going on. And when I meant that, I

174
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 1: meant their star players. I'm not talking the role players.

175
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 1: I don't care about them. You are led by your

176
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: highest paid, elite Pro Bowl level guys, and they happen

177
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,079
Speaker 1: to have two of the better players in the league

178
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: in Warner in Nick Bosa. Now I'm not saying they

179
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,599
Speaker 1: disliked the guy, But this league's about executing at the

180
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 1: highest level against Ben Johnson, against Andy Reid, against the

181
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: best schemes, against the best offensive players, and there's a

182
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: small percentage of guys that can do it. And for

183
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 1: Nick Bosa and Fred Warner and the rest of the

184
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: guys on that defense, they just had clearly one of

185
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: the best defensive coordinators in the league in Demiko Ryans

186
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 1: for two seasons. Even Robert Sala, who I don't even

187
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: think was as good as Demiko, was pretty damn good.

188
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,679
Speaker 1: So they know what it looks like. And when you

189
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 1: get a guy who's not as good. Listen, anyone in

190
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: any industry, whether you change jobs, whether you start working

191
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: with someone new, you know right away like, yeah, this

192
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 1: guy's not as good as the other guy I worked for,

193
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: or damp this guy's way better. We're all human beings

194
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 1: anything professionally, anyone worth their salt. You're constantly judging and

195
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: evaluating the people you're working with. Are they good enough?

196
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: Can we get to the next level, Can we make

197
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: more money? Can we take our company from X to y?

198
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 1: Can we double revenue? Can we figure out this product,

199
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: this computer? Whatever, it may be, and these guys know

200
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 1: the highest level because that's what Demiko was. He's a

201
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: top five defensive coordinator in the league. And like I said,

202
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,719
Speaker 1: going two for three in a lot of industries, you're

203
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: a Hall of Famer, you're a super rich guy. But

204
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 1: for this Kyle, she and it was, it hurts right

205
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 1: And I think, like I said, right move, what does

206
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: he do now? Now? Listen. I'm not naive, ignorant fanboy

207
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:30,680
Speaker 1: enough to just act like, oh, go Land Belichick, but

208
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 1: I will say this, I don't believe Kyle when he

209
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,079
Speaker 1: said that he slept on it the last couple of

210
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: nights and decided to relieve him of his duties this morning.

211
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:41,959
Speaker 1: Like I said, you guys know where I stand. I

212
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: think this decision was made two months ago. It was

213
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: already in a set because I've been there so of you.

214
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: When you stop believing in someone you're working with and

215
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: you have any authority, it's hard to come back from that,

216
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 1: and they do more and more things to lose your trust.

217
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 1: Kyle sh call the time out in overtime when the

218
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 1: forty nine ers were on defense because he didn't like

219
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 1: the call. He's the offensive coordinator that doesn't happen anywhere

220
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 1: else in the league. Do you think Andy Reid would

221
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 1: ever overrule Steve Spagnola in a defensive call in a

222
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 1: big game, let alone any game? Of course not. I mean,

223
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 1: what are we talking about. When that happened, it was

224
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: clear that this guy's no trust in the coach Bill Belichick,

225
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: Mike Shanahan and Bill Belichick were very, very close when

226
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: Mike was coaching in the NFL, obviously with the Broncos

227
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,679
Speaker 1: and then even Washington. When Bill was forced to get

228
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: rid of Jimmy g by Craft because of Tom Brady,

229
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,199
Speaker 1: he called one person, one person only, and it was

230
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 1: out of the blue, and he said, Kyle, this is

231
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick. Kyle's like, I know, we will give you

232
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 1: want Jimmy Garoppolo's second round pick. There's no negotiating. You

233
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 1: got about an hour giving me a call back. Because

234
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: remember a lot of other teams, the Browns, other teams

235
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,319
Speaker 1: were He wasn't even fucking around. He called Kyle because

236
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 1: he's a big fan of the Shanahan. Now, I'm not

237
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,239
Speaker 1: acting like Bill Belichick even wants to be a coordinator.

238
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,199
Speaker 1: He should have been the head coach in Atlanta. Anyone

239
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: that acts like Bill Belichick has lost his fastball. He

240
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 1: just needs a better quarterback. Now, part of that's on him,

241
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: he needs to give up personnel control. But if you

242
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 1: watch Bill Belichick's team this year, their offense suck, their

243
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 1: defense was fucking awesome. Belichick knows what he's doing, but

244
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: no one hires him. Now you know where I've stand.

245
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: Where I thought what he should do is go to

246
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 1: Amazon be the broadcaster. But hell, that might go to

247
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: like Jason Kelsey, it might not even be an option.

248
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: Bill would be a waste in a studio show. I

249
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 1: don't know about you. I don't watch any studio shows,

250
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 1: waste of my time. When the NFL's when games kick

251
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 1: off ten o'clock that's or eleven o'clock or whatever time

252
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: zone you're in, that's when I click it. On the

253
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, my girlfriend was like, let's watch the studio

254
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 1: the pregame shows. Like now, I just watch waste management,

255
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: and when we get the national anthem comes out, we'll

256
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 1: turn on the Super Bowl. I despise pregame shows. I

257
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: think there's such a waste, and I think Bill Belichick's

258
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 1: way better than that. He's also been hasn't missed an

259
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: NFL training camp since nineteen seventy five, it's twenty twenty four.

260
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: I think if you're Kyle Shanahan, listen, Jed York runs

261
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 1: in Silicon Valley circles. He'd give if Bill Belichick wanted

262
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: one year thirty five million dollars to coach, he'd give

263
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: it to him. Now would Bill do it? I don't know,

264
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: but one hundred percent that's my first call. The second

265
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 1: call is Mike Vrabel. Now again, like Bill Belichick has

266
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 1: a lot of money, does not need this job. Now,

267
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: the difference of Rabel and Belichick is next year. I

268
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 1: think Rabel is one hundred percent of lock to get

269
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 1: a job, whether he does TV, whether he just takes

270
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 1: the year off and kicks it, he will get a

271
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: job next year. That will happen. I do wonder if

272
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 1: he gets bored though these are not these guys I

273
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: love golf. I can't play them more than like three

274
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 1: days in a row. I get bored and I just

275
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: talk about football. Football junkies like being around football, and

276
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 1: the one thing Kyle provides to guys like that because

277
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: again they will open a check book. This ain't the

278
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 1: fucking Chargers. They if Kyle goes, hey, we can get

279
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick twenty five million dollars for one year, they

280
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: will cut the check. They operate. The budget ain't a problem.

281
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: I mean, they had Jimmy Garoppolo making twenty five million

282
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: dollars is a backup quarterback. So they don't mess around

283
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: when it comes to financially. They're not gonna worry about that.

284
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 1: They don't pinch pennies. They have an unlimited amount of money.

285
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: They are printing money with the forty nine ers. So

286
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 1: you just make those two calls and you go one,

287
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: what would it cost to even get you interested? To me,

288
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: that's the call. Those are the first two guys you call.

289
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: I don't think Pete Carroll has any interest. But the

290
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 1: difference is, like I've watched Pee Carroll. Their defense is suck. Now,

291
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: would you have to hire Pete Carroll if he was interested,

292
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 1: I guess you run his scheme or elements of it.

293
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: But like I would be more inclined. Obviously, I'd rather

294
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: have Belichick than Pete Carroll to run my defense in

295
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: rabel And again, I'm not saying they're gonna take the job.

296
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: I'm just saying those are your first two calls. Because

297
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers are not in a spot. And

298
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: this is why I don't think that if he was

299
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 1: going to fire Steve Wilkes, he'd fire him blind. I

300
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 1: think the moment Steve Wilkes was fired, he knew he

301
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: had a good shot at guy X or Y, And

302
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 1: I think this has been playing out for a while.

303
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: Like I think those calls to those guys have been

304
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: happening while the forty nine ers were in the playoffs.

305
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: That's Kyle's job. You're negligent if you're not constantly working

306
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: on that stuff. So listen, there could be some names.

307
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 1: If he hires Brandon Staley, they're both represented by the

308
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 1: same guy, Richmond Flowers, I will throw up in my

309
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 1: mouth and I will be I will be gutted. I'm

310
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: not saying it's in play, but as long as they

311
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: have an opening and there's connections he's coached for McVeigh,

312
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: that would make me fucking sick. I mean, I'd want

313
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: to just go. I don't even know Andy dufrayn crawl through,

314
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 1: you know, just the sewer Brandon Staley. But as long

315
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 1: as he's out there, I mean, I just don't think

316
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 1: they can hire a guy with no experience. Now, I

317
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 1: don't think Brandon Staley's experience equals anything of value to me,

318
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 1: But I know the way this league works, I know

319
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,920
Speaker 1: the way this world works. They're all kind of interconnected

320
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 1: through an agency. That definitely makes me nervous. Like I said,

321
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,399
Speaker 1: I open this saying Belichick or Vrabel, not thinking I

322
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: don't think he's gonna get those guys. I'm just telling

323
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 1: you he's gonna call those guys first and say what's

324
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: your price point, knowing that he'd only have him for

325
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 1: a year, because right now, the forty nine ers are

326
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,440
Speaker 1: in super baar Bus mode period point blank in a

327
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: story like that's just where they are in their operation,

328
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 1: and they've proven they get right there, they just can't

329
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: get over the hump. So no problem with the firing

330
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: one percent the right move. Now it's about upgrading that

331
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 1: position and we'll see what Kyle can do. He's had

332
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,679
Speaker 1: a really good track record of hiring coaches. I mean,

333
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: he just lost a bunch of guys. Anthony Lynn just

334
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 1: went to the commanders, Darryl Tapp just went to the commanders.

335
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:03,199
Speaker 1: Clint kop BacT his you know, just went to to

336
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: run the New Orleans offense. It's hard. I mean, he's

337
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: lost a lot of coaches over the years, but part

338
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 1: of being a great coach is figuring out how to

339
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 1: handle that. Andy Reid's done it for two decades, lost

340
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,440
Speaker 1: a lot of coaches over the years and just kept

341
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 1: don humming. So a lot of pressure on Kyle, a

342
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 1: lot of pressure on the forty nine ers. This is

343
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: I don't know, depending on who you follow on the

344
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:26,160
Speaker 1: social media streets, like controversial, because it's not. This guy

345
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 1: was gone win or lose. I was thinking about this

346
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 1: last night. I saw Shaquille O'Neil had his number retired

347
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 1: in Orlando, and anyone my age who was kind of

348
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 1: coming in their own as a sports fan right around

349
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 1: ninety two ninety three, I think it's hard to quantify

350
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 1: how big a deal Shack was. Like relative to the NBA,

351
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 1: there are only two guys in the NBA who like

352
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,439
Speaker 1: are on his level of fame, and that's Lebron and

353
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 1: Steph Curry. He is infinitely more famous than every other

354
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 1: guy in the league, like Kevin Durant, is not half

355
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: as famous or impactful or as important to the NBA

356
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 1: as Shaquille O'Neil. Obviously, Jokic might win his third straight MVP.

357
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 1: And one thing that kind of hit me now the

358
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 1: Warriors are kind of storming back and listen. I'm someone

359
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 1: I don't watch Laker games, but I follow what they're doing.

360
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 1: I mean I hate them, and that emotion's powerful. Like

361
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: if you're in the entertainment business, either love you or

362
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 1: hate you, like you want one of those two emotions.

363
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: And I think the NBA would be in a dramatically

364
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: better place despite having Adam Silver, who I don't think

365
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 1: knows what he's doing, despite having all these teams tanking,

366
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: despite having players sitting out once a week, if you

367
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 1: just had the Lakers and Warriors as the two best

368
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,159
Speaker 1: teams in the league, it wouldn't be where it was

369
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 1: ten years ago, but it would it would be in

370
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 1: a much healthier business place. We see when those two

371
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,639
Speaker 1: teams play the ratings, I mean they're huge. They're easily

372
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 1: the two biggest brands right now in the NBA. Like

373
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: what about the Celtics, Well, I watched them play the

374
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 1: Heat less than a month ago and they got outrated

375
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 1: by an SEC women's basketball game. No one watches the East.

376
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: I mean this is not a biased opinion. I don't

377
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 1: you don't. No one does. But dynasties matter. And that's

378
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 1: why part of the Lakers and Warriors being like the

379
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: ninth and eighth seed our problem because you want your

380
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:15,360
Speaker 1: most famous players to also be on the best teams

381
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 1: because that creates the most Like you want the guy

382
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 1: at the top of the mountain with the sword, like,

383
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 1: come and fucking try to take this from me. And

384
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 1: that's what the NFL has right now with Patrick Mahomes.

385
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 1: They had it for a long time. Like the NBA

386
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 1: when I was a kid, was so big because they

387
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: had Michael Jordan the top of that mountain with that sword,

388
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,919
Speaker 1: just slaying dudes as they attempted to knock him off

389
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 1: his perch. And right now that's Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid.

390
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 1: But the cool thing is, and listen, whether any of

391
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: these guys are gonna get him. We're all following their

392
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 1: plight to see if they can. And to me, the

393
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: number one guy who's gonna have the chance, because he's

394
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: gone toe to toe with them so many times, is

395
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 1: Josh Allen. Like, is Josh Allen ever gonna get it done?

396
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson now has won multiple MVPs. Is he just

397
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: gonna become the James Harden of football, or is he

398
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: good enough? Is his team good enough to take down

399
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, because we witnessed it a couple of weeks ago.

400
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: They definitely were not. And then you just go down

401
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 1: the line like Joe Burrow, assuming he's healthy, like I

402
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,679
Speaker 1: said earlier, that game he played against the forty nine

403
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: ers this season, Like that's as good of a football

404
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 1: game as you can play. And we've seen him beat Mahomes,

405
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 1: but like he's got to stay on the field and

406
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 1: sustain this, so he's like he's not like kind of

407
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: forgotten about. Because I bring up Lamar and Josh and

408
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 1: even Herbert all the time. You're like, what about Burrow.

409
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 1: It's like, well, he's disappeared, but you you got following

410
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,919
Speaker 1: all these guys' stories, and it's happened so often in

411
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,199
Speaker 1: the sports that I've loved over the years, Like in basketball,

412
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,159
Speaker 1: you're kind of invested back in the day of Patrick

413
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 1: Ewing or Reggie Miller or Karl Malone or Charles Barkley,

414
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,960
Speaker 1: like could they take him down. I'm a huge golf

415
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: guy now I lean Tiger Woods, but it was always

416
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,160
Speaker 1: cool to watch guys chase him and try to knock

417
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 1: them off and not be able to like that creates

418
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 1: the emotion that creates the eight one reason the NFL,

419
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:07,120
Speaker 1: I think a huge reason for their success. Dynasties really matter,

420
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 1: and everyone chasing the Patriots for twenty plus years was important.

421
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 1: I mean it really was. It adds to the drama

422
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,920
Speaker 1: of this entire thing, which is essentially a television show.

423
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,479
Speaker 1: So even in the other conference, like it makes it

424
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: like a damn could Jalen get back there? We've seen

425
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 1: Jalen go to totoe with him. Cowboys, if they could

426
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 1: ever get over the hump? Can you imagine the Dallas

427
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: Cowboys against Kansay Chiefs Rock Purty and Kyle So. I

428
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,200
Speaker 1: think the NFL is in a very very good space,

429
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 1: and for the long term health of the league. You

430
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: could argue that the Chiefs winning that game and kind

431
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 1: of cementing themselves as this little, you know, six to

432
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 1: seven year dynasty is very healthy because we know all

433
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 1: the stories of the contenders. We've now been following all

434
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 1: their careers for a while. Even Herbert like getting Jim Harbaugh.

435
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,919
Speaker 1: They're gonna go toe to toe twice a year, promise

436
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,400
Speaker 1: you this one of two of those games is gonna

437
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 1: be on Sunday Night Football, Monday Night Football, or Thursday

438
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: Night Football, Like those gonna be Andy Reid, Jim Harbaugh,

439
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 1: Herbert Mahomes. There be a lot of eyeballs on those games,

440
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 1: like the networks are gonna want that bad boy. So

441
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 1: I root for dynasties like I root to root against someone.

442
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 1: I've had it happen in my life when I was young.

443
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:20,920
Speaker 1: I love the Sacramento Kings. When I was in junior

444
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 1: high and high school and Shaquille O'Neil and Kobe Bryant.

445
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: Phil Jackson used to make fun of Sacramento, calls it

446
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 1: a little cowtown r like ringing the bells, you fucking losers,

447
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: And in fairness, they always won. Now, you could say

448
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,679
Speaker 1: it was rigged because of the mob back in Philadelphia,

449
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 1: Tim Donage. But it happened, and uh, it was a

450
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 1: powerful thing. A lot everyone cared, we were all glued.

451
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: So I'm just I'm very fascinated to watch these guys

452
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 1: try to take on this guy. And the other thing

453
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: is like Tiger Woods is back this weekend. Now. Part

454
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 1: of the reason he's back, he's launching a clothing line.

455
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: It's his tournament. So it's not like he's just back

456
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: purely because the love of the game. Obviously he likes

457
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: playing golf, but there are business interests involved in him

458
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:10,159
Speaker 1: playing this weekend. But you know, when he plays and

459
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:14,400
Speaker 1: you have everyone gunning for him, it just helps add

460
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:19,399
Speaker 1: something to the product. And I think once you become

461
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:23,439
Speaker 1: like a mythological figure, like you can't be beat. Michael

462
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 1: had it, Tiger had it, even Brady ultimately had it,

463
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 1: though he got beat some couple times in the Super Bowl.

464
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,199
Speaker 1: That's an element that you just maybe, you know, if

465
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 1: you believe the sports rigged, then technically you could just

466
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 1: create it in a lab. But I don't believe that.

467
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,639
Speaker 1: So when you get that organically, it helps take your

468
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: sport to another level. And then, last but not least,

469
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: this is a little little golf topic, but just an

470
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: event topic in general. I didn't go to the waste

471
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 1: management last week because I was in Vegas, and by

472
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 1: the time I got home on Saturday afternoon, once we

473
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 1: picked up the dog and came in the door, it

474
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: was like four point thirty. I was so hungover, so tired.

475
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 1: You couldn't have paid me to go to the grounds.

476
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 1: And it was also freezing cold when you promote. There's

477
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: been a lot of controversy over that the event has

478
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,199
Speaker 1: kind of jumped the shark, and even players said that

479
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 1: the things they're getting said, it's just outrageous. And my

480
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 1: initial pushback always is, like, guys, this is what the

481
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: money's for, Like, just shut the fuck up and hit

482
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,679
Speaker 1: the ball, like you guys are all getting paid an

483
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,400
Speaker 1: astronomical amount of money that, based on the television ratings,

484
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,359
Speaker 1: do not equate to what you're making. And then you

485
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,640
Speaker 1: start hearing some of the players talk about it kind

486
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 1: of candidly from like listen, I love this event. I

487
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: plan on coming back, but just screaming in guys backswing

488
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,360
Speaker 1: saying just constantly mean stuff like you kind of got

489
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: to draw the line somewhere. And I remember when I

490
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:51,239
Speaker 1: was doing radio in the Bay Area right before the

491
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers built the new stadium, and there's candlestick

492
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: in the coliseum where the Niners and the Raiders played.

493
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 1: They basically stopped doing preseason games, which make all the

494
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: sense in the world when they're two teams or twenty

495
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 1: minutes away from each other to play each other in

496
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: the preseason. But it got so violent and so unsafe

497
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 1: that it was like, this isn't worth it anymore. So

498
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 1: now you know the forty nine ers are like playing

499
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,199
Speaker 1: the Packers in Minnesota in the preseason instead of just

500
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: playing the team you know, across the Bay, because someone

501
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:26,400
Speaker 1: might get killed. I mean seriously. So once you get

502
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 1: to a point and it wasn't because the teams were

503
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 1: promoting violence or like hey come to this preseason game

504
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 1: and beat the shit out of the other teams fans,

505
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 1: it was like everyone just kind of knew. And there's

506
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 1: an element. Preseason games are cheaper. A lot of people

507
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 1: are drinking at these games. You're kind of going that

508
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,959
Speaker 1: there's a percentage of people going there looking for someone

509
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:48,199
Speaker 1: that I hope you would say something and they just

510
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 1: kind of exit out and they stopped it. Now they

511
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 1: played again this year, but you know they're in Vegas.

512
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:58,160
Speaker 1: It's a different ground. Once you promote something, and let's

513
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 1: face it, when alcohol is one of the driving's forces

514
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,399
Speaker 1: and I'm pro alcohol, I'm borderlined. I'm a bit. I

515
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 1: don't normally drink. I'm a binge drinker. Like when I drink,

516
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 1: I typically drink a lot, or I don't drink at all.

517
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 1: I'm not one of those guys like cocktail a night.

518
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: I can go two weeks without touching alcohol and then

519
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 1: have a weekend where it's like I had way too much.

520
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 1: So everyone's different. But when you promote an event like

521
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 1: the Waste Management does that is a binge drinking event

522
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 1: and celebrate it, and the PGA tour does as well,

523
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: Like this is kind of what you get. Forever, Las

524
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 1: Vegas was this place, and I guess it still is.

525
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. I think New

526
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,360
Speaker 1: Orleans is a lot like that, and I would say

527
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: Miami has some of that vibes, like when you go there,

528
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 1: you kind of do whatever you want. It doesn't count

529
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:50,639
Speaker 1: married whatever you do. It's like just you leave. Stays

530
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 1: in Vegas, no one knows. I'd argue Vegas is so

531
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 1: corporate now, and these casinos are so buttoned up, like

532
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 1: you really can't fuck around the casino, right, you will

533
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,679
Speaker 1: get tossed out. You can't be like throwing drinks around,

534
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,479
Speaker 1: starting fight. It's like that's not allowed. I guess in

535
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 1: New Orleans or Miami a little bit. But one thing.

536
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,359
Speaker 1: I think Scottsdale and it's always had this vibe. But

537
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 1: I think definitely for people on the West coast in

538
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 1: twenty twenty, if you lived in California, you were completely

539
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:22,160
Speaker 1: locked down. You couldn't do shit. Arizona was not like that.

540
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: It's spent like two weeks then it was rock and rolling.

541
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 1: It's one of the reasons when I came here in

542
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 1: the summer of twenty twenty, I'm like, God, fucking people

543
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,919
Speaker 1: are just living normally. I'm coming here. I already liked

544
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 1: it before, but that was the tipping point. I'm like, wait,

545
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 1: this is we got the same air going. These people

546
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: are completely living normal. I can't leave my house. All

547
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 1: my friends that run businesses are closed down. I'm out,

548
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 1: I'm coming here. That's right when I knew when I

549
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: came here for a golf trip Memorial Day weekend or

550
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: President's Day weekend or one of those weekends, whatever the

551
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 1: summer one is, and I was like, this is incredible.

552
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 1: And I think this place, like I said, it's always

553
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: been that, but I think the last four or five

554
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 1: years and talking to people around here has really amplified

555
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 1: becoming like a Vegas of what happens in Scottsdale stays

556
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: in Scottsdale. It's become a big party town. It's like

557
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: I said, always been a big party town. I think

558
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: it's gone to another level. And especially with West Coast people,

559
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 1: when you factor in what happened four or five years ago,

560
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: with everything that was happening in California, Oregon, and Washington,

561
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 1: they treated the state a lot differently than this place,

562
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 1: which is I'm glad, But now that everything is normal,

563
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 1: I don't think it's stopped here at all. So you're

564
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: getting a crowd that is coming here for ready for

565
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 1: full debauchery, which I'm pro that, but when you the

566
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 1: difference is a football game or a basketball game, if

567
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: you're getting super wasted, you are in a seat, and

568
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 1: a golf tournament, you know, unless you're in a suite,

569
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 1: is a little different. You're kind of on your feet,

570
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: you're kind of walking around, and this was bound to

571
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 1: have something bad happen. Listen. I don't have children, but

572
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 1: if I did, what I feel safe taking them to

573
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 1: a football game. And my answer would be depends where

574
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 1: we're sitting. Would I sit in the top bowl of

575
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 1: you know, certain teams, No chance, would I sit in

576
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 1: the lower bowl or a sweet one. So listen, once

577
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: your event becomes where you have to question, could I

578
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 1: take my son to this? You got a problem, And

579
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: I think waste management just kind of has to figure

580
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 1: that out. It's hard because once you get the perception

581
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 1: of like, come to Coachilla, right, You're not going there

582
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 1: to drink lemonade. You're going there to get wasted in

583
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 1: some form or fashion, and everyone knows it. And that's

584
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 1: what it's taken on the documentary about ninety nine Woodstock.

585
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 1: What did everyone go there for? Not to stay sober

586
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 1: and listen to the tunes? So you get to a

587
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 1: point where you either draw a line in the stand.

588
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 1: It's hard to put the toothpaste back in the tube,

589
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: but I think they can do it. You just you

590
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:00,080
Speaker 1: just got to create a little different perception like this

591
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: is not going to be tolerated. And I think it's

592
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 1: hard because everyone is coming and I know so many

593
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: people like, yeah, I'm coming by three boys, not like

594
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: actual kids, their boys from college that they work with

595
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 1: and we plan on getting wasted, which I'm all for

596
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 1: do it a lot, but I think a lot of

597
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 1: people unlike me. When you start seeing fights, I've always

598
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 1: done whenever I see fights at a football game or

599
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: fights like there are a bunch of fights at the

600
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 1: waste management. My first response is, like, these guys are

601
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 1: complete losers, but like this is also a business problem,

602
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: Like you don't want that to be the case because

603
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: you want your high end consumer. The guy bringing their son,

604
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 1: even if it might hate you, might not even have

605
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 1: that much money. He might be extending himself to feel

606
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 1: good about the experience because word of mouth matters. Okay,

607
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: Middlecoff mail Bag time at John Middlecoff is my Instagram

608
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: DMS wide open fire in them. You guys know the drill.

609
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 1: Let's try to fire through as many of these as

610
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 1: we can. From Isaiah, any thoughts on the staff being

611
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 1: put together in Washington, Well, I saw today that they

612
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 1: hired Anthony Lynn as their run game coordinator. He's coming

613
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: from San Francisco with Darryl Tapp as well. I think

614
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 1: Anthony Lynn is a fantastic assistant coach. He's a fantastic

615
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 1: guy to have on your staff. Didn't like him as

616
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 1: a head coach, but we've talked about this over and over.

617
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 1: Just because you're not a great head coach does not

618
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 1: mean you're not a good coach. So that's a good hire.

619
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,719
Speaker 1: Darryl Tapp a guy that when I was with the Eagles,

620
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 1: was one of our defensive linemen. Jim Washburn loved him always.

621
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 1: You know, as a player, he's just a solid player.

622
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: But clearly he's been with the forty nine ers for

623
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 1: a while now. You know, anytime you get an assistant

624
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 1: coach who's like an assistant line coach, an assistant O

625
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 1: line coach, assistant linebacker coach for years who's part of

626
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: somewhere successful, especially a guy as a former player, like

627
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: that's a solid hire. Obviously, Dan Quinn, we've talked about before,

628
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 1: the key with that higher in Washington. They're not trying

629
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 1: to win the Super Bowl the next couple of years.

630
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: They're just trying to be credible. They're trying to have

631
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 1: back to back nine or ten win seasons and be

632
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 1: in the wild card mix. So when you looked at

633
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 1: the landscape once the Ben Johnson thing kind of unraveled,

634
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: I can't hate it. I just don't know there are

635
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 1: other options. So yeah, I like what they're doing. I'm

636
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 1: obviously a big believer in Adam Peters. I think you

637
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 1: guys got a stud general manager. Listen, your owner. Now,

638
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 1: it's a completely different industry because of a different sport, but

639
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 1: has a proven track record of hiring guys who have

640
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 1: had experience. Now, basketball is different. If you have Joel Embiid,

641
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 1: you're guaranteed to not suck. Football is hard, you know,

642
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 1: regardless of who they end up picking with the number

643
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 1: two pick, whatever quarterback they choose, there's no guarantee that

644
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: guy's going to be in a good zero. It's a

645
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 1: hard part about the sport. And when the video comes

646
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 1: out of them drafting Drake may or Jayden Daniels or

647
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 1: whoever they pick Bo Nicks, the celebration in that draft

648
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 1: room is going to be a static and then a

649
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,439
Speaker 1: couple years later we'll judge right. Because there is never

650
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 1: a draft room where you make a pick, especially high,

651
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,320
Speaker 1: where the room is not really happy. So it's gonna

652
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,239
Speaker 1: come down to me on the coaching staff whether they

653
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: get the quarterback right. And that does not mean they

654
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:38,800
Speaker 1: need to find Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes or even

655
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: you know, Justin Herbert or Jalen Hurts. Just got a

656
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 1: solid guy. If you just get a solid quarterback, you

657
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,600
Speaker 1: can build a franchise around them and be competitive. Andy

658
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: Reid's tenure in Kansas City started with Alex Smith. He

659
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 1: did not have Patrick Mahomes, so they would die for

660
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 1: Alex Smith. Hell, they had him and he was playing

661
00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: good until the leg injury happened. I'm a huge nine er,

662
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 1: just curious if you think their window is closed somewhat

663
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 1: following this loss. Obviously it's tough to predict these things,

664
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 1: but you imagine having an aging squad and suffering street

665
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 1: three straight tough losses. I still think the majority of

666
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 1: their core guys are still under thirty, right, Deebo fred Bosa,

667
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 1: Trent is old, but he still plays at a high level.

668
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 1: I u they plan on keeping who Fungo will be

669
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 1: back from injury. Ward is still really good at corner.

670
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,680
Speaker 1: The Dray Green law Achilles really hurts because I think

671
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,279
Speaker 1: realistically you have to look at this year like he's

672
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 1: not going to be around. But that's football, and anytime

673
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 1: you know you're not guaranteed shit. The next year, the

674
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,319
Speaker 1: Chiefs won the Super Bowl and this year was a

675
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 1: struggle for them. Now, their trump card always is their quarterback,

676
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: and obviously they still have Travis Kelce and Chris Jones,

677
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:53,920
Speaker 1: but those guys are getting up there in age. If

678
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 1: you have a great coach and you have a great culture.

679
00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,759
Speaker 1: Now the forty nine ers, you know, brock perty is

680
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,840
Speaker 1: gonna to prove to do this over and over and

681
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 1: over again. He doesn't make any money. So if brock

682
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,799
Speaker 1: Pertyes is a solid quarterback, given the flexibility you have

683
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 1: with his contract, you have room to make moves. And

684
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:14,880
Speaker 1: one thing that was pretty evident in the super Bowl.

685
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 1: The reality with the forty nine Ers is they went

686
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,360
Speaker 1: two years without having a first round pick, and it

687
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 1: showed in that game. We talked about it earlier this

688
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:26,479
Speaker 1: week that you know the Chiefs had higher end young

689
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 1: talent because they drafted McDuffie two years ago, they drafted Karlovskis.

690
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:36,360
Speaker 1: Having some high picks helps you hit on impact starters

691
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:40,799
Speaker 1: who don't make much money. Spags gets an extension. What

692
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 1: is he making a year for turning Andy's team into

693
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,840
Speaker 1: a defensive juggernaut. I would say anything less than like

694
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 1: five million dollars would be underpaid. To me, Andy Reid's

695
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 1: a twenty five million dollar head coach and Spags a

696
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,239
Speaker 1: five million dollar coordinator. Now I don't know how much

697
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 1: they actually make, but like that's the value of those

698
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,319
Speaker 1: two guys. What number could I tell you? You're like

699
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 1: Andy Reid was making that you would feel he's underpaid

700
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,919
Speaker 1: Beside a couple of the high end quarterbacks. How many

701
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:11,720
Speaker 1: players in the NFL are worth more than Andy Reid?

702
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:14,360
Speaker 1: If you paid Andy Reid thirty five, it's not a

703
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:18,399
Speaker 1: salary cap position. So who cares? He's worth a lot.

704
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: Spag is worth a lot, and now the Chiefs are

705
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 1: worth a lot because they're winning a lot of Super Bowls.

706
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 1: I heard in a recent vid you were going to

707
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,360
Speaker 1: go to the Combine. I live in Indy and have

708
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,200
Speaker 1: my whole life. If you're looking to have an expensive dinner,

709
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:32,880
Speaker 1: you know I've been there three or four times in

710
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: my life. Now check out the Eagles Nest, otherwise known

711
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 1: as the restaurant that rotates everything on the menu, is

712
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:43,279
Speaker 1: great and is the best restaurant in the city. I'm

713
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 1: gonna write that down. Eagles Nest. Question for the mailbag

714
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,560
Speaker 1: or if you just want to answer, Is there any

715
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 1: chance the Niners try to team up the Bosa brothers

716
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:59,560
Speaker 1: and go for Joey No? One, he makes too much money. Two.

717
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 1: If you're the Chargers, you've paid him all this money

718
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 1: and he is a high end player, even though he's

719
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:06,839
Speaker 1: injured a lot. I think you would still just keep

720
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 1: so I wouldn't expect Bosa to be on another team.

721
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 1: I think Joey Bosa is going to be on the

722
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:19,720
Speaker 1: Chargers next year. Khalil Mack, Now that's another story. Colin

723
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: had this random thought. This from River he threw out

724
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,240
Speaker 1: on a show years ago. Not a topic or anything,

725
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,680
Speaker 1: but just a statement he made in response to something else.

726
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,959
Speaker 1: He said he thought NFL teams should be allowed one

727
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 1: player that doesn't count against the cap. Now I'm sure

728
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 1: he was talking about quarterbacks, but my twist would be,

729
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 1: could any player any position. The money to pay them

730
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 1: would come out of the ad TV money that they

731
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 1: get every year, which is over four hundred million dollars.

732
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:52,240
Speaker 1: The drawback to ensure teams don't just do it willy

733
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 1: nilly is that their player turns out to be not

734
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 1: worth it and they decide to cut them or trade them.

735
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,319
Speaker 1: The entirety of the salary is guaranteed if they cut them,

736
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 1: in seventy five percent if he's traded, so it's not

737
00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 1: going to kill the rest of your team, but you're

738
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:09,120
Speaker 1: going to have to use other money to cover your mistake. Obviously,

739
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:12,480
Speaker 1: teams with quarterbacks or generational talents would use this, but

740
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 1: it would help the best teams keep their good teams.

741
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 1: Intact your thoughts, I would say, how many. Here's the

742
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:22,359
Speaker 1: thing about the NFL. How many teams that have a

743
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,280
Speaker 1: star player ever lose them that want to keep them?

744
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 1: Never happens. The Packers, who don't have an owner had

745
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 1: thirty plus years of Farvan Rodgers. Every team that has

746
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,320
Speaker 1: a star player, if they want to keep that player,

747
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:42,399
Speaker 1: keeps that player. How many all time great players don't

748
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,919
Speaker 1: get a second contract with their team. It's very very rare.

749
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,799
Speaker 1: When Khalil Mack was traded from the Raiders, it was

750
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 1: unheard of. I think it was the first time a

751
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 1: multiple time All Pro had been traded before like his

752
00:39:55,600 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 1: fifth year. So that's never going to happen. I think

753
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,360
Speaker 1: it's fair to say. So. I hear what you're saying,

754
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:07,920
Speaker 1: but it's just it's for whatever reason, it's just not

755
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 1: gonna happen. So I'm not gonna spend much time on it.

756
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 1: I think in basketball and football you should have someone

757
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 1: you draft. If I draft Steph Curry, Nick Bosa, whoever, TJ. Watt,

758
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,359
Speaker 1: you go through the teams and I want to keep

759
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 1: that player on lane Johnson and he's like my cornerstone player.

760
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 1: It could be a quarterback, could be any position. Like

761
00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: you said, that would be an incredible mechanism that you

762
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:40,560
Speaker 1: get the benefit of drafting and developing. To me, it

763
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 1: should be a player you draft like the forty nine

764
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: er shouldn't be able to use it on Trent Williams, right,

765
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 1: but if they wanted to use on Nick Bosa, they

766
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:49,799
Speaker 1: should be able to. If the Rams want to use

767
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 1: it on Aaron Donald, they should be able to. They

768
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 1: get credit for making that move. I got a question

769
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 1: regarding my team, the Arizona Cardinals. Is there hope or

770
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:03,279
Speaker 1: any reason for optimism for this coming season? Kyler is back.

771
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,320
Speaker 1: Hopefully we grab Harrison Junior and we play hard. Still

772
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:09,279
Speaker 1: feels like we're two or three defensive stoppers away from

773
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 1: being competitive. I love your thoughts. I think they got

774
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:16,799
Speaker 1: a pretty long way to go. I think they are

775
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 1: more than just a player or two away. So I

776
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 1: would say, I hear what you're saying, but I think

777
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 1: you're probably two drafts away from being competitive as a

778
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 1: playoff team. Kyler showed a lot of life though last year.

779
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,280
Speaker 1: The talent on your offense is pretty shitty, so hitting

780
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,440
Speaker 1: on a wide receiver. But let's face it, like most

781
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 1: wide receivers aren't catching ninety balls, as like what Puka

782
00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:45,920
Speaker 1: did is not normal. So I would say this draft

783
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,360
Speaker 1: if you can get back to like seven eight wins

784
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:52,800
Speaker 1: but look really competitive, and then the following year should

785
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 1: be like in twenty twenty five, we start talking about

786
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,120
Speaker 1: a potential playoff team. I agreed with you all year

787
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,800
Speaker 1: when you said Wilkes wasn't quite as good as Ryan's

788
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 1: are solo, But in the Super Bowl, his defense held

789
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,879
Speaker 1: the Chiefs to three points in the first half, then

790
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 1: only gave up a touchdown in regulation when his defense

791
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,720
Speaker 1: was forced to go back out on the field after

792
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:15,279
Speaker 1: a punt hit off the dude's foot and McLeod didn't

793
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 1: fall in. I thought he called a masterful game on

794
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:22,759
Speaker 1: those things alone. I think the offense, the forty nine

795
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,799
Speaker 1: ers offense, needed one more field goal drive or even

796
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:28,319
Speaker 1: just one more first down on the last drive and

797
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:30,759
Speaker 1: they win the game. And if that's the case, I

798
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,640
Speaker 1: think Wilkes is a big reason as any of the

799
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 1: forty nine ers, a big reason as for the forty

800
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 1: nine Ers winning the Super Bowl. Listen, the forty nine

801
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 1: Ers offense had issues in that game, But you're not

802
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 1: firing Kyle Shanahan. Christian McCaffrey fumbled, You're not firing Christian McCaffrey.

803
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:50,400
Speaker 1: It wasn't just that game, which in the biggest spots

804
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:54,520
Speaker 1: he got smoked. The Chiefs offense isn't that good. They

805
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,440
Speaker 1: had scored seventeen points to the previous week. This isn't

806
00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 1: now they were playing the Ravens. But this isn't super

807
00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: dynamic thirty five point a game offense. This is a

808
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 1: team that won a lot of games scoring nineteen points.

809
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 1: So when you're in these big spots with the game

810
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 1: on the line and you have how many third and fives,

811
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,960
Speaker 1: third and six? Is did they get with ease with

812
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,239
Speaker 1: the game on the line. No one. As someone that

813
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,759
Speaker 1: does this for a living, I watch a lot of

814
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:26,839
Speaker 1: football on Sunday, right from the start when games kick

815
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 1: off at eleven to the last game ends. We don't

816
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 1: talk that much about first halfs like I enjoy watching them.

817
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,120
Speaker 1: But the majority of the story for a game that

818
00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 1: we talk about as fans, as podcasters, even as coaches,

819
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:46,320
Speaker 1: come down to the second half. Because the overwhelming majority

820
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:49,960
Speaker 1: of games, I think, like well over eighty percent are

821
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,799
Speaker 1: a one score game going in the fourth quarter, so

822
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 1: schematically adjusting making sure you get big spots is a

823
00:43:56,800 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 1: huge part of any coaches job. Okay from buckets question,

824
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:13,000
Speaker 1: Seattle hired Mike mack now Ryan Grubb. How do you

825
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 1: feel about the hires? We drafted a quarterback outlook for

826
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 1: the franchise? Positive? Yeah, I mean I like to hire

827
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:24,360
Speaker 1: get a guy that I knew someone on the raven staff.

828
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,840
Speaker 1: They called him boy genius. So listen, it's risky hiring

829
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 1: young people right in any industry, especially in football. When

830
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 1: a guy's just been a coordinator, you have no clue.

831
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 1: It's kind of like the draft. Obviously on paper, he

832
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 1: looks fantastic. Worked in Michigan, kicked ass. Work with the

833
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 1: Ravens kicked ass. I watched his press conference. I wouldn't

834
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:48,120
Speaker 1: call him stiff, but he's not. He didn't feel like

835
00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:51,800
Speaker 1: mister personality. But maybe that was just small sample size.

836
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 1: Uh like to hire a lot. I mean, I think

837
00:44:56,640 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 1: it's pretty good. Here's the thing, though, you know he's

838
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 1: going up against Shanahan and McVeigh now as the head coach.

839
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:08,759
Speaker 1: He's no longer just the defensive coordinator. The other thing

840
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 1: I'm pro Ryan Grubb. I mean, if you couldn't watch

841
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,040
Speaker 1: him in college, and I think this guy's fucking unbelievable.

842
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:18,399
Speaker 1: He has never worked in the NFL. So it's it's

843
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:22,080
Speaker 1: a calculator risk. It is I like taking calculator risks.

844
00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:25,279
Speaker 1: I'm all for it, but tough division. You know the

845
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 1: Rams are coming. The forty nine ers are really good.

846
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:31,200
Speaker 1: Conference isn't as strong, but it's a good job. A

847
00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:34,200
Speaker 1: lot of pieces, a lot of pieces on offense. For Grub,

848
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: I do think you'll draft a quarterback. I kind of

849
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,200
Speaker 1: expect you to trade up and get a quarterback, but

850
00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:41,759
Speaker 1: you never know. I thought they'd take Anthony Richardson last year,

851
00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:44,400
Speaker 1: trade up and try to be aggressive, and then they

852
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:46,799
Speaker 1: just sat and they took Witherspoon. Maybe they would have

853
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 1: taken Richardson if he would have felled a five. I

854
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:50,359
Speaker 1: know there have been a lot of reports over the years,

855
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 1: but you never really know after the fact. But Witherspoon's

856
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:57,320
Speaker 1: a stud. We saw what McDonald did with Kyle Hamilton,

857
00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 1: so I wouldn't expect that to stop. Now. Okay, Alex

858
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:03,640
Speaker 1: could finally summit the idea of Super Bowl content forty

859
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:06,400
Speaker 1: eight hours after just caught the first hour of your

860
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:09,800
Speaker 1: instant reaction with Colin when he essentially says something along

861
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 1: the lines of the tape is out on Purty. Oh,

862
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:14,920
Speaker 1: the best way to get to him is pressure. He

863
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:19,000
Speaker 1: does get that Purty led the league in QBR versus pressure. No,

864
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,479
Speaker 1: I believe he is specifically referring to the third down

865
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:24,840
Speaker 1: late in the fourth quarter and the third down in

866
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,399
Speaker 1: overtime when the forty nine ers that the forty nine

867
00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:30,840
Speaker 1: ers didn't convert on, both of which included miss blocks,

868
00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:34,280
Speaker 1: leaving him essentially one on one with a pass rusher.

869
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 1: Not sure those qualifies as examples supporting the blanket statement

870
00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:42,080
Speaker 1: Colin is making. This is not a pretty argument, although

871
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:45,000
Speaker 1: impressive stuff one and a half years in, just seems

872
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:48,359
Speaker 1: like Colin is making a blanket statement because of two

873
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:53,279
Speaker 1: specific plays. Maybe I was misunderstanding a statement. Yeah, I

874
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:58,480
Speaker 1: can't speak for Colin. Here's why. No, when you block

875
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 1: up pressure on Purty and he has a little time,

876
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:04,520
Speaker 1: he's proven to be really good. But one thing I

877
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:08,080
Speaker 1: think he's gonna struggle or he has struggled with. He

878
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:10,560
Speaker 1: can make plays with his legs, but because of his

879
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:14,359
Speaker 1: height limitation when they blitzed him sometimes and a lot

880
00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:16,720
Speaker 1: of the blitzes that hit Home were because no one

881
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:19,480
Speaker 1: was blocked where an oncoming rusher was coming and had

882
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 1: to get rid of the ball fast. It is where

883
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:26,480
Speaker 1: his height limitations limit his ability to see stuff, which

884
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 1: is always going to be an issue. Patrick Mahomes, You're

885
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:31,960
Speaker 1: playing a magician who no matter where you brought pressure,

886
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:34,880
Speaker 1: he knew exactly where to go. Perdy can get rattled

887
00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:37,879
Speaker 1: a little bit, regardless of the stats when you start

888
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:41,279
Speaker 1: hitting him like any quarterback, and physically he's just not

889
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 1: tall enough to see and throw it into pressure because

890
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 1: he's a smaller guy. I put this less on Purty

891
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Speaker 1: and more on Kyle. Get him moving. If they're bringing

892
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:54,760
Speaker 1: people and you can't block Chris Jones, use the guy's athleticism.

893
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:58,680
Speaker 1: What did Andy do with the game online? Got Mahomes moving?

894
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:03,840
Speaker 1: Why Mahomes is gon athlete? Perty's not Peyton Manning And

895
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 1: sometimes Kyle played them like that in that specific game

896
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:10,440
Speaker 1: when they were They couldn't fucking block these guys, So

897
00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:12,920
Speaker 1: get them on the move. Some of Purty's best plays

898
00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 1: in that game moving around as an athlete. Do I

899
00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:18,960
Speaker 1: think Purdy is like gonna sit in the pocket like

900
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:23,200
Speaker 1: Philip rivers. It's it's harder for him when he's getting

901
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:25,480
Speaker 1: hit because of his size. It's hard firm to see

902
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:28,919
Speaker 1: from you, Gene Oregon, love three and out and go low.

903
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:31,800
Speaker 1: Keep up the good work. My question that I feel

904
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:33,960
Speaker 1: like no one has really talked about other than Romo

905
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:37,440
Speaker 1: mentioning it during the game comes from the defensive strategy

906
00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 1: in both the final drive of the Niners in the

907
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:43,719
Speaker 1: fourth quarter and honestly even the last overtime drive as well.

908
00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 1: Why were the forty nine ers playing so soft letting

909
00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:50,160
Speaker 1: Kansas City get the yards and get a field goal late.

910
00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:52,160
Speaker 1: I see it all the time in the regular season.

911
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:55,000
Speaker 1: I kind of get it, but this is the freaking

912
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:57,680
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. I'm not saying they should blitz the house

913
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,640
Speaker 1: clearly because Kyle would call time outs. But the d

914
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 1: line was just playing so well. Why not just run

915
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:06,280
Speaker 1: normal based defense that was working of having the backers

916
00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:09,360
Speaker 1: and other guys play eight yard back The Chiefs not

917
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:11,800
Speaker 1: only got into field goal range in a short amount

918
00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:14,440
Speaker 1: of time using one field goal, but also Kansas City

919
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:18,400
Speaker 1: had the potential to score. I totally agree. I prevent

920
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:23,200
Speaker 1: defense fucking stupid when your defense is playing well. Prevent

921
00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,879
Speaker 1: defense with twenty seconds left and they're at the twenty

922
00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:27,960
Speaker 1: yard line. They don't have any timeouts. Totally get it.

923
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 1: When you got to go the whole length of the

924
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:35,359
Speaker 1: field and you got Patrick Mahomes and you're playing off

925
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,240
Speaker 1: and just killing grass. You know, it's just that seven

926
00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:41,200
Speaker 1: yards back, three yards over, get to my spot. That

927
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:45,120
Speaker 1: is so dumb. You're going up against the greatest offensive

928
00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:48,360
Speaker 1: coach since Bill Walsh and one of the great quarterbacks

929
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:50,760
Speaker 1: we've ever seen, and you're just gonna play prevent defense.

930
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:54,600
Speaker 1: They've they've worked right down the field. Totally with you.

931
00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:57,600
Speaker 1: I hated it. Probably why the guy doesn't have a job.

932
00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:04,040
Speaker 1: I mean seriously, cause you basically were just giving them

933
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:06,920
Speaker 1: the field goal and because of the team you're playing,

934
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:11,760
Speaker 1: even with their offensive limitations like guys, they might walk

935
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:16,440
Speaker 1: off touchdown, a walk off touchdown, and regulation to me,

936
00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:20,520
Speaker 1: would have been ten times worse than in overtime. And

937
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:24,960
Speaker 1: it was bad in overtime, it was really bad, But

938
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:28,520
Speaker 1: in regulation that would have been the worst loss I've

939
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:33,840
Speaker 1: ever seen. Everyone's angry that the Niners lost, including myself.

940
00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:37,120
Speaker 1: People want to point fingers, and that's fine. However, you

941
00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:39,160
Speaker 1: just did a video about Shanahan and how you believe

942
00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,640
Speaker 1: in them. I do as well, But I have two questions.

943
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:44,920
Speaker 1: Why has nobody ever really made it a point to

944
00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:47,360
Speaker 1: really point out how bad the on line is. I

945
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 1: think we talk about the on line all the time.

946
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:52,440
Speaker 1: They have Trent Williams, who's one of the greatest tackles

947
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:55,600
Speaker 1: of all time, and then a bunch of replaceable pieces.

948
00:50:55,960 --> 00:51:00,160
Speaker 1: I think that's pretty well discussed. I think that's a

949
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:03,400
Speaker 1: point of conversation around the forty nine ers at all times. Now,

950
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 1: it's hard you invest. And this is where it gets

951
00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:09,000
Speaker 1: back to they didn't have the draft picks. I would

952
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:10,799
Speaker 1: guess over the last couple of years, what would they

953
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:12,480
Speaker 1: have used one of those first round draft picks on.

954
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:16,080
Speaker 1: Probably an offensive lineman. But you trade for Trey Lance.

955
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,560
Speaker 1: Like the trade for Trey Lance wasn't just missing on

956
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:23,960
Speaker 1: Trey Lance, it was the cost to acquire them. It

957
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:26,799
Speaker 1: was two other first round picks that they could have

958
00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:30,759
Speaker 1: drafted a center, drafted a guard, drafted a tackle. They

959
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:35,440
Speaker 1: didn't have the fucking ammunition. It was really a double whammy,

960
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,439
Speaker 1: at least with Christian McCaffrey. You trade a second, a third,

961
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:41,640
Speaker 1: and a fourth, which is a lot of draft capital.

962
00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:45,520
Speaker 1: You get Christian McCaffrey. Howie Roseman said this a couple

963
00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:47,880
Speaker 1: of years ago. Every team has the same amount of

964
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:52,120
Speaker 1: equity or you know, a capital, excuse me, capital, not

965
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:53,920
Speaker 1: not Every team has the same amount of equity. Obviously

966
00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:56,640
Speaker 1: different teams valued at different numbers, but every team has

967
00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:59,560
Speaker 1: the same amount of draft capital and money. You just

968
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:03,400
Speaker 1: choose to invest it. Every team, if you started at scratch,

969
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:05,320
Speaker 1: has a first round pick, a second round pick, a third.

970
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:09,960
Speaker 1: Teams trade it, teams trade back teams. You know, have

971
00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:12,360
Speaker 1: the same amount of salary cap space. You just determine

972
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:15,000
Speaker 1: how you want to invest it. And the forty nine

973
00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:18,399
Speaker 1: ers made a move and it was a devastating move

974
00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 1: that luckily, you know, the football gods gave them pretty

975
00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:29,080
Speaker 1: as a bailout. But missing those two first round picks

976
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:34,440
Speaker 1: has an impact. Like McDuffie just didn't come out of

977
00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:37,680
Speaker 1: the sky and Karlovskis that's the Miami trade. I think

978
00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:42,239
Speaker 1: McDuffie was the Miami draft pick. Karloskis was the Chiefs.

979
00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:48,680
Speaker 1: But that matters how the f DIDs Stucky call over time.

980
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:53,040
Speaker 1: He just said that his guy had just saw it

981
00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:56,160
Speaker 1: in ane efficiency, right, It's just when you get an awe.

982
00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:59,360
Speaker 1: When you get a number that's a little off, you're like,

983
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:03,200
Speaker 1: like Cam Young finished really high at Riviera two years ago.

984
00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:07,120
Speaker 1: He's playing well right now. He's a Ryder cupper. He's legit.

985
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:11,239
Speaker 1: He's thirty five to one right now, Like those odds

986
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:13,359
Speaker 1: are out of whack. He should be like twenty two

987
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:15,120
Speaker 1: to one. So what did I do put one hundred

988
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:19,319
Speaker 1: dollars on? It's you don't know it's gonna hit. You

989
00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 1: just see value, and that's what I think Stucky's guy

990
00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:26,320
Speaker 1: saw value. I started podcasting ten months ago and followed

991
00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:30,680
Speaker 1: your advice on consistency. I've been diligent, putting out one

992
00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:34,560
Speaker 1: episode per week in four short form videos. While my

993
00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:38,360
Speaker 1: usual podcast topics from real estate sales, entrepreneurship to hobbies

994
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,520
Speaker 1: like snowboarding and paintballing paintballer, I used to play a

995
00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:44,960
Speaker 1: little paintball back in high school. Had a spider. Those

996
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:48,080
Speaker 1: guns were sweet. A few weeks ago, I ventured into

997
00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:51,879
Speaker 1: sports content with my first ever episode, which performed exceptionally

998
00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:56,719
Speaker 1: well across various platforms and content types. I'm averaging around

999
00:53:56,719 --> 00:54:00,719
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty thousand views per month. Proud, but

1000
00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:04,160
Speaker 1: not satisfied. My ultimate goal is to make podcasting my

1001
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:06,880
Speaker 1: full time job because I love being a content creator.

1002
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:10,560
Speaker 1: So here are my questions. Should I focus solely on

1003
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:14,600
Speaker 1: creating sports content and stop making content about random stuff.

1004
00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:18,439
Speaker 1: Should I reach out to companies for podcasts sponsorship now

1005
00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:21,759
Speaker 1: to make it my main source of income, offsetting my

1006
00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:24,720
Speaker 1: W two Or should I focus on growing my following

1007
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:30,800
Speaker 1: more before pursuing sponsorship partnership opportunities. Just for context, I'm thirty,

1008
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:35,760
Speaker 1: recently married, working at a fortune five hundred in sales

1009
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:39,879
Speaker 1: making almost two hundred k. Guys, fucking crushing. I enjoy

1010
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:41,839
Speaker 1: my nine to five with my wife, and I own

1011
00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 1: five rental properties. Holy shit, my man's crushing. My advice

1012
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:50,000
Speaker 1: would simply be this, I would not give up your

1013
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:55,200
Speaker 1: W two job until you start getting a steady stream

1014
00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:59,360
Speaker 1: coming from this. You're making too much money to just

1015
00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:02,400
Speaker 1: quit turkey. If you can keep putting in time and

1016
00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:05,040
Speaker 1: doing this on the side, it's actually the best way

1017
00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:08,040
Speaker 1: to start a future gig is to have a gig

1018
00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:10,680
Speaker 1: that's making money. You can work on the side and

1019
00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:16,760
Speaker 1: build it up. My advice with anything with content creation

1020
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:22,600
Speaker 1: or videos or podcasts, whatever works and resonates like Ultimately,

1021
00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:25,240
Speaker 1: I like talking about this, but if no one listens,

1022
00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:31,279
Speaker 1: who cares? I talk about football because it works, right,

1023
00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:35,160
Speaker 1: So whatever's working for you, do the majority of that.

1024
00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:39,440
Speaker 1: I understand that golf content isn't one to one hundredth

1025
00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:42,480
Speaker 1: of the power of football, but I love it. I

1026
00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,759
Speaker 1: know there is an audience and I enjoy it. But

1027
00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:48,239
Speaker 1: I would be stupid to flip it around and do

1028
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:53,160
Speaker 1: five to one ratio golf the football, Right, So I

1029
00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:56,319
Speaker 1: know It's why we do majority of football content here.

1030
00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:01,600
Speaker 1: So when something works, double and triple down on it,

1031
00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:03,719
Speaker 1: it doesn't mean you can't still do If you like

1032
00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:07,279
Speaker 1: doing podcasts on snowboarding or paintballing or real estate. You

1033
00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:11,080
Speaker 1: own five real estate properties, you bring value talking about

1034
00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:15,239
Speaker 1: it to people. Hell, how many people that are interested in? Like, God,

1035
00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:19,160
Speaker 1: I want to get something to rent out. You can

1036
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:23,319
Speaker 1: talk about it, the positives, the negatives, the costs, the benefits,

1037
00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:27,239
Speaker 1: how to find tenants, how to find management companies. Do

1038
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:30,759
Speaker 1: you manage it like it's interesting, but if it's not

1039
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:35,680
Speaker 1: really working, ride what's working and then just continue to

1040
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:37,719
Speaker 1: kind of do that on the side. In terms of

1041
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:41,400
Speaker 1: your pie chart of what you're talking about, do the

1042
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:44,960
Speaker 1: majority of that pie chart on what is getting traction,

1043
00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:47,719
Speaker 1: and then from there just try to build up and

1044
00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:51,640
Speaker 1: see where it goes. That would be my advice, because

1045
00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:53,640
Speaker 1: if you spend a lot of time doing stuff that's

1046
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:56,160
Speaker 1: not working. The best part about this world that we

1047
00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:59,359
Speaker 1: live in you can change at a moment's notice. If

1048
00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:02,439
Speaker 1: something works, double down. If it's working for a while

1049
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:05,840
Speaker 1: and then stops working, try something else. You could be

1050
00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:12,360
Speaker 1: very fluid. Do you think it makes more sense? Congrats

1051
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:14,799
Speaker 1: on your life, Though you sound like you're crushing I

1052
00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:16,720
Speaker 1: definitely was not doing that well at thirty years old.

1053
00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:19,280
Speaker 1: I'll promise you that you think it makes more sense

1054
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,120
Speaker 1: for the Chiefs to go after a big time wide

1055
00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 1: receiver in free agency or stick with building wide receiver depth.

1056
00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:27,400
Speaker 1: Wide receiver depth has been an issue the last two

1057
00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:30,640
Speaker 1: seasons since the Tyreek Hill trade. However, it seems that

1058
00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:33,520
Speaker 1: Veach may hit the jackpot with the Rice and was

1059
00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:37,880
Speaker 1: a second round pick last year. Here's your thoughts. Well,

1060
00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:41,440
Speaker 1: the best wide receiving crew the Patriots ever had, they

1061
00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:44,320
Speaker 1: never won a Super Bowl. They had arguably the second

1062
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:46,800
Speaker 1: best receiver of all time and one of the great

1063
00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:50,120
Speaker 1: NFL players ever and lost in the Super Bowl. So

1064
00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:53,040
Speaker 1: just because you have a great wide receiver does it.

1065
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:55,520
Speaker 1: And they had Welker, who is easily one of the

1066
00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:57,800
Speaker 1: great slot receivers and one of the most productive receivers

1067
00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:02,320
Speaker 1: we've ever seen in his peak. So it doesn't guarantee

1068
00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:06,920
Speaker 1: you anything. Look at the Colts all those years of

1069
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:09,360
Speaker 1: having sweet wide receivers, It's not like they won four

1070
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:13,400
Speaker 1: Super Bowls. What I would imagine Andy's gonna do is

1071
00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:15,680
Speaker 1: they're gonna keep investing in the offensive and defensive lines.

1072
00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:18,760
Speaker 1: And you know, if Rice takes a step draft another

1073
00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:20,640
Speaker 1: wide receiver in the second round, just keep kind of

1074
00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:23,240
Speaker 1: build that way, sign a tight end. Where I think

1075
00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:27,160
Speaker 1: they're gonna benefit is because of their situation. Guys are

1076
00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:29,440
Speaker 1: gonna want to be a part of the Chiefs. So

1077
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 1: players are you know, I think, maybe I'm wrong, gonna

1078
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:39,120
Speaker 1: want to take a little less to be part of

1079
00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:42,240
Speaker 1: the operation that's working. That's what I would imagine is

1080
00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:45,160
Speaker 1: gonna happen that they can get I just keep saying

1081
00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:47,960
Speaker 1: this name. I haven't even looked at the free agent options,

1082
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:51,080
Speaker 1: but Mike Evans, could they get him a little cheaper

1083
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:53,680
Speaker 1: because he wants to play with Patrick? Would he sign

1084
00:58:53,680 --> 00:58:55,480
Speaker 1: a one year deal? I don't know. I mean he's

1085
00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:57,600
Speaker 1: gonna have options. He was really good. But you know

1086
00:58:57,640 --> 00:59:01,320
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. You're the suggestion of making the

1087
00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:04,480
Speaker 1: Monday after the Super Bowl into a national holiday. Another

1088
00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:07,000
Speaker 1: option would be to play the game on Saturday rather

1089
00:59:07,040 --> 00:59:12,040
Speaker 1: than Sunday. Sunday is a better TV day. So the

1090
00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:15,280
Speaker 1: reason Sunday night football is the number one show in

1091
00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:19,800
Speaker 1: America is just think about it. The overwhelming majority of

1092
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:24,200
Speaker 1: people are home. Friday night and Saturday night are not

1093
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:28,880
Speaker 1: great TV nights. Now. I'm home a lot, but there's

1094
00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:31,760
Speaker 1: a reason that if you put football games on the

1095
00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:34,200
Speaker 1: same football game on Saturday night and the same football

1096
00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:35,760
Speaker 1: game on Sunday night, more people are going to watch

1097
00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:41,800
Speaker 1: on Sunday night. So listen to make something a national holiday.

1098
00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:45,080
Speaker 1: I never expect that to happen, though it should. That'd

1099
00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:48,640
Speaker 1: be awesome, even though I never really drink during Super Bowls,

1100
00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:50,480
Speaker 1: except the one I went to when I got pretty wasted.

1101
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 1: But don't I don't never expect that that day to

1102
00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:55,760
Speaker 1: be a national holiday. That's something a lot of people

1103
00:59:55,760 --> 01:00:02,520
Speaker 1: in sports media and sports fans say. But it's never

1104
01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:07,280
Speaker 1: happening on Saturday night. Ever. No chance it would take

1105
01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:09,800
Speaker 1: like a natural disaster or something but even then, like

1106
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:12,360
Speaker 1: the game is always going to be scheduled on Sunday.

1107
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:16,480
Speaker 1: I guess the only way possible if there was a

1108
01:00:16,520 --> 01:00:20,320
Speaker 1: new stadium and its outdoors and like a hurricane was

1109
01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:22,080
Speaker 1: gonna hit, I guess it could happen in Miami. And

1110
01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:25,280
Speaker 1: if the hurricane was gonna hit Sunday, obviously it's not

1111
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:28,760
Speaker 1: really hurricane season. But you know what I mean, what

1112
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:32,880
Speaker 1: are your thoughts about Harbaugh, Staff, Mintor and Roman plus

1113
01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:35,800
Speaker 1: the linebacker he coached for the forty nine ers, Navarro

1114
01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:39,080
Speaker 1: Bowman for like a two year stretch, is one of

1115
01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:42,040
Speaker 1: the best players I've ever seen. Now, his short his

1116
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:44,360
Speaker 1: career in the Peak was very short lived. He had

1117
01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:47,400
Speaker 1: an awful injury against Seattle where he basically had his

1118
01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:50,440
Speaker 1: knee snapped. But I'm telling you, Navarro Bowman in his

1119
01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:54,400
Speaker 1: prime elite, So very very cool that He's added Navarro

1120
01:00:54,520 --> 01:00:59,000
Speaker 1: to his coaching staff. Mentor you know, I mean the

1121
01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:04,280
Speaker 1: Michigan just record, the Joe Burrow LSU National Championship team

1122
01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:08,320
Speaker 1: sent sixteen guys in the NFL combine, which is insanity.

1123
01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:13,120
Speaker 1: This Michigan team has eighteen guys going. They're sending six

1124
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:18,120
Speaker 1: offensive linemen. They have nine offensive and defensive lineman going.

1125
01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:25,160
Speaker 1: Obviously Blake and JJ. Some DB's six offensive linemen going

1126
01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:32,640
Speaker 1: to the combine. That's just insane. So whoever Harbaugh's gonna hire,

1127
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:37,400
Speaker 1: I would have faith. Everyone's like Greg Roban, he sucks boy.

1128
01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:39,080
Speaker 1: Sure won a lot of games with Jim Harbaugh and

1129
01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:41,960
Speaker 1: San Francisco the first time. Sure had some success with

1130
01:01:42,080 --> 01:01:46,160
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson Win Baltimore. No one's acting like he's Bill Walsh.

1131
01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:48,080
Speaker 1: But let's not act like the guys the village idiot.

1132
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:51,520
Speaker 1: So I think the charge are gonna be good? Do

1133
01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:53,560
Speaker 1: you post your golf picks? Yeah? I post him on

1134
01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:56,680
Speaker 1: I have an Instagram account that's just go lo pod.

1135
01:01:57,320 --> 01:01:58,880
Speaker 1: I post him there. I post him on my own

1136
01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:03,040
Speaker 1: Instagram account. They're posted right now. I'm a new Engler,

1137
01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:06,760
Speaker 1: so I obviously rooted for the Pats and objuxtaposing the

1138
01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:10,000
Speaker 1: Pats dynasty versus the Chiefs dynasty. And what led the

1139
01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:15,240
Speaker 1: Pats to fall was Belichick's ego. As the Bible says,

1140
01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:20,240
Speaker 1: pride cometh before destruction. He had to have complete control.

1141
01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:23,600
Speaker 1: The one thing I'd pushed back. He always had a

1142
01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:28,040
Speaker 1: complete control and led, and that was like part of

1143
01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:30,760
Speaker 1: their success and led him to being the worst GM

1144
01:02:30,800 --> 01:02:34,160
Speaker 1: in the NFL drafting bus like Nikhil Harry, Cyrus Jones,

1145
01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:37,280
Speaker 1: Isaiah Win. He literally traded down to take Cole Strange

1146
01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 1: and the Chiefs used that draft pick to take Trent McDuffie.

1147
01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:43,840
Speaker 1: The Chiefs have a great thing going with Andy Reid

1148
01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:47,520
Speaker 1: and Colin plays a great DC, and Steve Spagnola who

1149
01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:49,520
Speaker 1: will never be a head coach and an elite GM,

1150
01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:52,720
Speaker 1: and Brett who drafts great players instead of Andy taking

1151
01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:59,720
Speaker 1: control and his egomaniac like Belichick. It works for a

1152
01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:03,920
Speaker 1: long time time with Bill. It really did Bill's ultimate downfall.

1153
01:03:04,920 --> 01:03:06,840
Speaker 1: Obviously as a GM, he was very hit or missing.

1154
01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:09,640
Speaker 1: One of Andy's great strengths is when he left Philly

1155
01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:13,160
Speaker 1: to go to Kansas City, he said, I don't want

1156
01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:15,880
Speaker 1: to be the GM anymore, so you deserve credit there.

1157
01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:18,360
Speaker 1: But it wasn't until they got Patrick Mahomes that they

1158
01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:20,840
Speaker 1: started winning. I think they only won one playoff game

1159
01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:23,840
Speaker 1: with Alex Now they were really good. They were winning eleven, twelve,

1160
01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:26,200
Speaker 1: ten games every year, going to the playoffs all the time.

1161
01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:29,640
Speaker 1: But you need a great quarterback, and once you greet

1162
01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:32,439
Speaker 1: the great quarterback like you're you're gonna have some whiffs too.

1163
01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:37,640
Speaker 1: Bill's ultimate downfall. If they had Tom Brady this year

1164
01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:40,880
Speaker 1: at forty six, they probably win eight nine games. He

1165
01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:44,680
Speaker 1: told Tom Brady, we don't want you anymore. Like that

1166
01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:47,880
Speaker 1: was it. It wasn't. It wasn't all the draft bus

1167
01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 1: He had draft busts in two thousand and six and

1168
01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:54,960
Speaker 1: ten and twenty thirteen. It was Tom his decision on

1169
01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:58,440
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, which, let's face it, how many coaches in

1170
01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:01,440
Speaker 1: GMS in the history of the league would have been like,

1171
01:04:01,480 --> 01:04:04,240
Speaker 1: this is kind of crazy. He's forty two years old. Now.

1172
01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:08,480
Speaker 1: The thing is like Billy wasn't even making much money.

1173
01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:12,560
Speaker 1: He didn't want forty million dollars a year. So to me,

1174
01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:15,120
Speaker 1: the number one thing to get down on Belichick isn't

1175
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:19,040
Speaker 1: Nikhil Harry and some of these cold strangers. Every coach

1176
01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:21,960
Speaker 1: in GM have had those Brett Vitch is missed on guys.

1177
01:04:22,360 --> 01:04:26,560
Speaker 1: It happens. It was the Tom Brady decision. And when

1178
01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:29,960
Speaker 1: you make the wrong quarterback decision, especially with the greatest

1179
01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:34,560
Speaker 1: quarterback of all time, you're gonna get fucked in some way,

1180
01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:37,800
Speaker 1: some form or fashion, especially when you have no backup plan.

1181
01:04:38,400 --> 01:04:40,920
Speaker 1: When he told Tom to kick rocks, they didn't have

1182
01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:43,400
Speaker 1: a quarterback on the roster. They had assigned Cam Newton

1183
01:04:43,400 --> 01:04:45,880
Speaker 1: that year over the summer, and the following year they

1184
01:04:45,920 --> 01:04:51,240
Speaker 1: had a draft Mac Jones. So that ultimately was Bill's downfall.

1185
01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:55,000
Speaker 1: But I agree one of Andy's great strengths in Kansas

1186
01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:58,040
Speaker 1: City has been putting his ego to the side and

1187
01:04:58,160 --> 01:05:01,720
Speaker 1: letting guys help him out, and that was an element

1188
01:05:01,800 --> 01:05:04,439
Speaker 1: to Bill when it came to Tom that he could

1189
01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:10,720
Speaker 1: not get out of his own way. The volume
