1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:18,640
Speaker 1: The volume What is going On Everybody? John Middlecoff three

2
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,240
Speaker 1: and out podcast, brought to you by my friends at

3
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 1: Zone Pouches. Well, I recorded a podcast early afternoon, and

4
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: then as I was heading with my wife to this

5
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: baby check up appointment, I got forwarded a bunch of

6
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:39,479
Speaker 1: tweets that John Harbaugh had been fired. So I went

7
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: to the appointment, came back, re recorded the open, and

8
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 1: reacted to the John Harbaugh situation, because, let's face it,

9
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 1: the biggest story of the day, and even though we

10
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: had been talking about it and alluding to it a

11
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: little on the podcast, a lot of you guys dms,

12
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: it's still wild. When you actually read that he got fired,

13
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:05,319
Speaker 1: it was wow. So we'll dive into just my quick

14
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: reaction to it, as well as some other stuff that

15
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 1: happened today. Eberflu's fired, Kingsbury fired. We will talk some

16
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 1: college football, some I saw on the internet, just like

17
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,199
Speaker 1: this place really is insane right now as well, something

18
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,759
Speaker 1: I wanted to start doing like once a week. As

19
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 1: someone who's about to have a child, I'm just gonna

20
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 1: see a lot of things, observe a lot of things,

21
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: have a lot of takes. So I thought, you know,

22
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,199
Speaker 1: let's let's mix in the Dad Diaries and we're gonna

23
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: try to do that. Well, just who knows it'll it'll

24
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 1: change week to week. But I wanted to dabble today

25
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,320

34
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,519
Speaker 1: We we got a lot of games coming and we'll

35
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: be reacting to it, recording podcasts on the YouTube than

36
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 1: we obviously do here on the audio. But let's I guess,

37
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: let's just dive into John Harbaugh. I mean, my first reaction,

38
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 1: even though we had talked about it a little bit

39
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: and it was on the table as a possibility, and

40
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: I think I had said on Sunday night when they

41
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,239
Speaker 1: lost the game, which I mean, there are a couple

42
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: of feet away from winning the game. Maybe not a

43
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 1: couple of feet, a couple of yards. It was a bad kick. Obviously,

44
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 1: John Harball would have been coaching this week, been there

45
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: eighteen years. There's no other reaction when you actually see

46
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 1: it than wow, Right, Mike Tomlin or John Harbaugh, the

47
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: two longest tenured coaches in the league. If one of

48
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: them lose their job. We've been talking about Tomlin for years,

49
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: but we never believe it's actually gonna happen, even John Harbaugh.

50
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 1: I didn't expect John Harbaugh to get fun So it's

51
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: one of those things like Jonathan Gannon got fired. No shit,

52
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 1: Stefanski got run out of town. Saw that one coming.

53
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:12,519
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll won and done. Seriously, they could have done

54
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: that three months ago. This one is pretty crazy. I

55
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: mean it really is. He's a couple of years removed.

56
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 1: They had the number one overall seed. They were hosting

57
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:24,639
Speaker 1: the Chiefs in the AFC Championship. They were statistically easily

58
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: the best team in the league. The Chiefs ended up

59
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,359
Speaker 1: beating the Niners. They had played the Niners on Christmas

60
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 1: and housed them. They were favored in that game. I

61
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: know because I bet on them, which cost me five g's,

62
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: which did suck a lot, but I had so much

63
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: faith on that team after watching them on that Christmas

64
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: night against a really good Niners team, and they treated

65
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: him like a JV team. A couple of years later,

66
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: he's fired. And these are moments that you know, firing

67
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 1: Stefanski or Jonathan Gannon like, the owners like him, but

68
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: it's not that big a deal for the organization. Firing

69
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: Brian Dabo he'd been there like three and a half years.

70
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: Firing guy that had been there eighteen years, who you've

71
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: not only obviously won the Super Bowl a long time

72
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: ago with, but had been the leader of one of

73
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: the most consistent operations in the league is a really,

74
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: really big deal. So I think I speak from most

75
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: people that I don't know how your first reaction wasn't Wow,

76
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: they actually did it, and I just took some notes

77
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: of just my initial thoughts. Obviously, there are a lot

78
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 1: of rumors coming out that they wanted him to fire

79
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 1: the OC, and it's one of those you know, if

80
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 1: that's true, prideful guy like, I'm not doing that, So

81
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: not saying it was Lamar versus Harbaugh, but it was

82
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: a little like, yeah, we want to change for Lamar

83
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: on offense, and John said no, which there's going to

84
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: be more stories and more inside articles I would imagine

85
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 1: written over the next week on some of the details

86
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 1: with this Lamar situation, John Harbaugh's views on it, the

87
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 1: organization's views on the offense. But right now I don't know.

88
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: I don't have any inside information, but it's clear, in

89
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: a roundabout way, became Lamar versus the coaching staff's philosophy

90
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: with offense. And listen, you watch that game offensively, it's

91
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 1: just it's been a little weird. The Derrick Henry thing

92
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 1: was weird. When he got benched. In the next week

93
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: he runs for two hundred yards and it's just it's

94
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: ben bizarre that there's no way around it. And let

95
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: me say this, I'm not saying, you know, they're not

96
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 1: justified in doing this. Eighteen years a long time. Maybe

97
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 1: it's time for a change, Maybe it's time to mix

98
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 1: it up. Is it gonna be hard to replace? John

99
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: harbaught on because more than likely, statistics would show you

100
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: you're gonna downgrade. That's the way it works now. Unlike

101
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 1: his brother, they're probably not gonna go to Jim tom

102
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: Sula because the other thing I wrote down, and we'll

103
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: get into John here in a second. This this is twofold.

104
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: He immediately becomes the best coach on the market by

105
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: a country mile. I mean, it ain't even close. He

106
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: is the number one candidate, and there's not even there's

107
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,600
Speaker 1: not even a gap between second. He can't even see

108
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 1: the Stefanskis and the Solace and those fucking guys can't

109
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 1: even see him with binoculars, the best deer hunting scope.

110
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 1: You couldn't even find him. So he is the number

111
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 1: one candidate by a mile. Chefter tweeted out seven teams

112
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 1: in the first forty five minutes, called his agent, well,

113
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: there aren't seven openings, so they are gonna be teams

114
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: that would be firing their coach to hire John Harball,

115
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: which I've said it for Mike Tomlin forever. Like those

116
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: two guys, if they ever became available, run circles around

117
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: the other candidates. They are immediate hires for all these teams.

118
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 1: Hell John Harbaugh. Like say some of the franchises out loud,

119
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: think John Harbaugh would never coach the Arizona Cardinals. John

120
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: Harbaugh would never coach the Tennessee Titans, Like I can't

121
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: even see John Harbaugh coach in the Atlanta Falcons, though

122
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 1: if I'm in Atlanta, I'd be all over them. Like,

123
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: let's face it, he feels like a New York Giant,

124
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 1: and at this point in time, it'd be shocking if

125
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: he's not the head coach of the New York Giants.

126
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 1: And I also think the Baltimore Ravens immediately lap all

127
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 1: these clown organizations are the best option by They're the

128
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: number one job on the market and it's not even close.

129
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 1: They have an established quarterback, they have an established culture,

130
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: they have a consistency of drafting well with DaCosta and Nazi.

131
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: They have an owner that is stable and not like

132
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: a lot of these clowns that have no clue what

133
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: he's doing. He knows what it looks like. He will

134
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 1: stand with you through thick and thin. I mean eighteen years.

135
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 1: That's a long freaking time. I saw right now, Andy

136
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: reads the longest tenure or Tomlin technically is right oh seven,

137
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 1: assuming that he keeps his job. But let's you know,

138
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: who knows this week, what if they get blown out

139
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: by the Texans that Tomlin and then it goes Andy

140
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, you're all like Kyle

141
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: and McVeigh. So this is a league that runs through

142
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 1: these guys like you know, I run through paper towels,

143
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: and guys like John Harbaugh. They are they don't come often,

144
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: and he's going to get a job. Listen, I understand

145
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: the Rooney rule, and I mean Mike Tomlin benefited from

146
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: it because they just interviewed him and loved him and

147
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: got the job. You should not have to interview If

148
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: I'm the Giants and I want to hire John Harbaugh

149
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: to be my head coach, I've said this forever. There

150
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 1: has to be some sort of stipulation, like if you've

151
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: won a Super Bowl, I don't need to go through

152
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: and interview people just to interview people. If I want

153
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 1: to hire him, I should be able to hire him yesterday.

154
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: And I would say this if I'm Joe Shane, that

155
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: would be a problem because that would not guarantee your employment.

156
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 1: If John Harbaugh has like the Ravens guys, one thing

157
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 1: they're really good at is producing personnel people. Google Azzi's

158
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: tree is basically like the opposite of you know, Belichick's

159
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 1: coaching tree. So you see Joe Ortiz immediately go with

160
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: John or Jim Harbaugh. He's good at his job, right,

161
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,679
Speaker 1: He's just good at his job. So if John's like, hey,

162
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: I got a guy like like Joe, it wouldn't be

163
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: Joe Ortiz, but someone like that that I want to

164
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 1: bring with me. Joe Shane's getting the pink slip and

165
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 1: he's done. It happens like that, And like, I don't

166
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,079
Speaker 1: think there should have to be some charade, Like I

167
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: get it with most of these co you have to interview,

168
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: like Robert Salas and Matt Naggi's like, you have to

169
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 1: follow the rules, right, But John Harbaugh, there should be

170
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 1: no I want to hire John Harbaugh. I'm hiring anora.

171
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: That should be allowed because if I was the Giants,

172
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: like I'd want to be hired yesterday. And I think

173
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 1: it makes a lot of sense with his personality, with

174
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: that that region of the country he's comfortable in. Uh,

175
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 1: if I was a betting man right now, John Harbaugh

176
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 1: would be the next coach in the New York Giants.

177
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,719
Speaker 1: And to go from the situation they've been in, if

178
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: that comes to fruition, you should be like, think of

179
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 1: the guy Pat Shermer's and mcadoo's and the dable the

180
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: situation the way that Joe Judge. I mean, give me

181
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: a break, it would it would. He's older, though the

182
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 1: Hardballs feel a little younger. I mean, I think John's

183
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 1: like sixty three, uh, would be a pretty big game

184
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 1: changer for the culture of the organization. It would have

185
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:01,439
Speaker 1: a Coughlin type vibe. So and the Ravens. I saw

186
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 1: Daniel Jeremiah, who obviously works with all these He works

187
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 1: for the Chargers as their radio play or analysts with

188
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: the play by play guy Matt Muney Smith, like jesse Mentor,

189
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: you know Mike McDonald, jesse Mintor were creations of the

190
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 1: Raven operation, and by all accounts, jesse Mentor is a star. Well,

191
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,839
Speaker 1: if anyone's gonna know that it's the Harbaugh family, now,

192
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: is it a little weird to replace John. I also

193
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: think when you read John's statement one, you don't get

194
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 1: fired in that statement on that like Adobe Canva, like

195
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: they've known this was heading that way potentially. But if

196
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: you know so, maybe there's not as much bad blood

197
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: as there would be for most of us humans if

198
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: we got fired or relieved of our duties. But I

199
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: do think that jesse Mentor would be a name that

200
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 1: I'd be stunned if he's not one of their lead

201
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 1: candidates and he doesn't end up his the Ravens job.

202
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: But if I were all these guys that are sniffing

203
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: around on jobs, that would be the number one job

204
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: and it wouldn't even be close. Right. That's what's crazy

205
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 1: about this situation is the guy you fired immediately the

206
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 1: best candidate, and your job is immediately the best job.

207
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,199
Speaker 1: And I think now it kind of puts a lot

208
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: of pressure on this Lamar situation for you know, because

209
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,719
Speaker 1: they're judged the Ravens are judged on the playoffs at

210
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 1: this point in time. That's and that's is a difficult job. Right.

211
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 1: You get hired, you're expected to not only make the playoffs,

212
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: but like, can we win a super Bowl? Now? Can

213
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 1: we get back to the super Bowl? And that's that's

214
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 1: not like you go to the Titans, you win six games, shit,

215
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 1: they give you an extension. You went to the Giants,

216
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: you went nine to eight back to back years. John Morrow,

217
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: buy a beach house, right, you you go to the Cardinals,

218
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 1: if you just beat McVeigh or Kyle once in a while, Jonathan,

219
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: you know, Michael Bidwell buying a golf membership here silver Leaf.

220
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 1: So that's not the case with the Ravens. You get hired,

221
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 1: you're expected to win, You're expected to win big. And

222
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: John Harbaugh went to the playoffs a lot, right, and

223
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 1: he had some devastating losses. That comes with the territory.

224
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 1: I would say none was a bigger pivotal moment in

225
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 1: his career then that Chiefs lost at home a couple

226
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 1: of years ago. You know, I think, listen, we can

227
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: make fun the butterfly effect of the kid missing the

228
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: kick on Sunday Night, which obviously was big. Now, if

229
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: he refused to fire Munken and that was not gonna change,

230
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 1: then he was probably getting fired no matter what, unless

231
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 1: he won the Super Bowl. But that moment a couple

232
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 1: of years ago, he beats the Chiefs in that game,

233
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: I just think they're winning the super Bowl and you're

234
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,319
Speaker 1: looking at a two T like he's he's kind of untouchable.

235
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:46,079
Speaker 1: And this back and forth or the ad odds a

236
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 1: little bit with the quarterback and the scheme and the

237
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 1: coaches would have as much juice as him, and he doesn't.

238
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: Right now, he simply doesn't. Right, So crazy moment, I

239
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 1: mean one of those stories that it's just wild when

240
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 1: you see it, and Tomlin would be the same thing.

241
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: It's just wow, seismic earthquake that just erupts through the NFL.

242
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: And I think it gets back to the schefter thing

243
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: of him tweeting out that you have teams with coaches

244
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 1: talking to them like teams with coaches aren't. Like, can

245
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,079
Speaker 1: I interview Robert Sala? You know, and listen. I'm not

246
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 1: trying to shit on Roberts. I like Robert saw a lot,

247
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 1: but he's clearly gonna be one of the top candidates

248
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 1: this cycle. There are certain coaches Mike Tomlin is one

249
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: of those guys too. If they were available, teams with

250
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 1: coaches go, I want to get rid of my guy

251
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 1: to hire that guy, And I don't even I would

252
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: imagine that could be the the Bucks. If I'm Jason

253
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: light like, I would you rather have John Harbor or

254
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 1: Tom Bowles. I'm just trying thinking off the cuff. Jerry

255
00:13:55,240 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: probably not. John's too famous. Whose do the Bengals never would?

256
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: Who are teams that missed the playoffs? Commanders? Where does

257
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 1: Josh Harris come from the NBA? What are you always

258
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 1: chasing stars? Big names? Of coaches. Look at who he's

259
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 1: hired at coaches, Doc Rivers, Nick Nurse, you know, champion

260
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: type guys. He's looking at dan Quinn. Would you rather

261
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 1: have Dan Quinn or John Harbaugh? Would not shock me

262
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: at all if the Commanders and Tampa Bay Bucks were

263
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: two teams with teams that reached out. And I'm not

264
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: talking about their gms, I'm talking with the owners. What

265
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 1: did the Glaziers once upon an end to trade for Gruden?

266
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: Look at Josh Harris who's hired as coaches of his

267
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: NBA team. Look at what they've chased with their NBA

268
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: team with players. Look at today they got rid of

269
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: their two coordinators. Just say, you get the fuck out

270
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 1: of here. Guys were the coordinators last year when they

271
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: were in the NFC Championship game with the least talented

272
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 1: roster we've ever seen make it that far. So this

273
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: league's crazy, and today was truly one of those moments

274
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 1: that we don't get enough of it that makes you

275
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: go wow. Today's show is brought to you by our

Speaker 1: recorded part of the podcast, But I did want to

306
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: start with the Dallas Cowboys, and they fired Matt Eberflus,

307
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 1: who sent out a press released and said we released

308
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,119
Speaker 1: Matt Eberflus like he's a player. No, no, Jerry, you

309
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: fired Matt Eberflus. And I think this happens a lot

310
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 1: in football when coaches don't have much juice. Probably happens

311
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 1: to a lot of industries when you have more poll

312
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 1: whoever you're working for or with, let you do what

313
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 1: you want to do. When you don't have much pull

314
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 1: and you don't have much leverage. We just saw it

315
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: with Pete Carroll. You think Pikroll wanted to hire Chip Kelly. No,

316
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: but Pete Carroll didn't have any leverage, you know in

317
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,360
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, so he had to work with him

318
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 1: and Brian Schottenheimer probably had the least amount of leverage

319
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 1: in like the history of the NFL. So think about this.

320
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 1: Matt Eberflus had worked for the Dallas Cowboys before he

321
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 1: went to the Colts and then the Bears. Right remember

322
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels when he took herned down the job in

323
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 1: Indy hired Eberflus before he even got there. So eber

324
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 1: Flus was waiting in his office. He never showed. But

325
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 1: I think the thing with eber Flus is one he's

326
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,399
Speaker 1: not very good. I've never seen it. You know, you

327
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: watch the hard Knocks. He comes across as no jews.

328
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, some just off. You know there's something

329
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 1: and you can overrate hard knocks all you want. There

330
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 1: is a judgment on like I feel this guy's presence.

331
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 1: I see this right, you know it, knew it right away,

332
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:33,640
Speaker 1: like Bill O'Brien's presence, Dan Campbell's presence. You watch Matt

333
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 1: eberflusch like, what is this and the irin is he's

334
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: a Saban guy played for Saban at Kent State, Like

335
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: they're pretty close, and he just thinks. But here's the

336
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 1: thing about Brian shotten Neer, while their record isn't great,

337
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: kind of proved to Jerry, like I can be a

338
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: head coach and I definitely can run the offense because

339
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 1: the offense was awesome. I don't know, I didn't even

340
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 1: see the final stats Sunday with such a joke. I mean,

341
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, I guess he probably didn't cause Stafford probably

342
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,439
Speaker 1: bypassed him, but had led league in yards. Their offense

343
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,440
Speaker 1: for most of the year was really good. The defense

344
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:07,440
Speaker 1: was atrocious. There is no way of Brian Schottenheimer had

345
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 1: his choice, he would have hired Ebraflus. That is your

346
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 1: classic we're telling you who to hire. Happens all across

347
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:17,400
Speaker 1: the league when gms have a lot of juice, When

348
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 1: owners don't trust the coach, they force guys on their

349
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 1: coaching staff. You know, it's something that it's rarely reported

350
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:26,679
Speaker 1: when guys are hired because you don't want to know.

351
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,120
Speaker 1: And like, well, the owner forced me to hire this

352
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 1: offensive or defensive coordinator. Definitely wouldn't have been my first hire.

353
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: But you feel it when a guy's fired, and to me,

354
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 1: that shows that like Brian Schottenheimer kind of gained a

355
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 1: little bit of juice. It's crazy to say because the

356
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 1: Cowboys weren't that good, but I do think his offensive

357
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: prowess and let's face it, handles himself I thought pretty

358
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,159
Speaker 1: well in kind of a weird circumstance to be like,

359
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 1: this guy's got to go. And you could tell the

360
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,439
Speaker 1: way Jerry was talking like two or three weeks ago

361
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: when one of his postgame press conference is like, yeah,

362
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 1: Eberflus came really highly re I commended. It's like Jerry,

363
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,199
Speaker 1: he worked for you, like you knew him. So I

364
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 1: just think sometimes these guys the NFL, you know, has

365
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 1: turned that there's a scam element to it. There always

366
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,399
Speaker 1: has been, but now with the money on the line,

367
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 1: you know, I just saw we'll get into Cliff Kingsbury,

368
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 1: who is now being paid by three different organizations, three

369
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:25,360
Speaker 1: different organizations. In the real world, like outside of football,

370
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,160
Speaker 1: you would get to the point where people start suing you,

371
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 1: you know, and these coaches like Cliff Kingsbury all time

372
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 1: scam artist. I mean, I've never seen it with Cliff,

373
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 1: and this is nothing personal. It seems like a great guy,

374
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:42,360
Speaker 1: hard worker. Everyone likes him personally. I think his offense,

375
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 1: I mean makes me want to puke in my mouth.

376
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 1: He's had a slight moment of brilliance for the Cardinals,

377
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 1: and two years ago it's like they were touched by

378
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: the gods. They were like ninety five percent on fourth downs,

379
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 1: which is never sustainable. And obviously they had a bunch

380
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 1: of injuries. But he got ran out of town real quick.

381
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,719
Speaker 1: And no one has a better pr campaign than Cliff.

382
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 1: Like a month ago, people were like, oh, Cliff Kingsbury

383
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 1: is gonna be interviewing for head coaching jobs. You know

384
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 1: why that came out because it was pretty clear Washington

385
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 1: was gonna fire him. You can tell me you mutually departed,

386
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: give me a break. That means fired. We've seen that

387
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 1: for years. Jim Harball once famously mutually departed with the

388
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: forty nine ers. A month later, it's like, yeah, they

389
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 1: fired me, of course they did. Cliff Kingsbury was just fired. Now.

390
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:32,840
Speaker 1: I'd also say like kind of chaotic and this we

391
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 1: just talked about Brian Schottenheimer. The one thing you get

392
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 1: with Brian Schottenheimer, and these two teams are in the

393
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 1: same division, more than likely are gonna be competing for

394
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: second place next year behind the Eagles. Is one thing

395
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 1: you get with Brian is like, I know he's calling

396
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,919
Speaker 1: the offense. I know him and Dak and whoever you

397
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 1: bring in, it's his scheme, it's his baby, that's his thing. Well,

398
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 1: dan Quinn's like, this defensive guy didn't even call defense

399
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: until he took it over Midseas. What's kind of why

400
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 1: he got back in the good graces of everybody in Dallas.

401
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 1: He was kicking ass the defensive coordinator, and I think

402
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,920
Speaker 1: that also undid Ebraflus because Jerry a couple of years

403
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,920
Speaker 1: ago saw what a great defensive coordinator looks like, making

404
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:12,119
Speaker 1: kind of random guys become really good players. Kingsbury, I

405
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 1: mean to me, he's got a Chip Kelly thing to him.

406
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 1: The name is way bigger than the ROI you get.

407
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 1: The name's really famous, and obviously Cliff's a good looking dude.

408
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 1: But when it comes to offensive prowess, good defenses are

409
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,680
Speaker 1: licking their lips to play that guy. And you can

410
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 1: tell me Jayden was banged up this year, and that

411
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,919
Speaker 1: is true. But if you want Cliff Kingsbury to be

412
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 1: your offensive coordinator and call your plays, I will short

413
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 1: your organization in the National Football League. I would say

414
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 1: the same thing for Chip Kelly. And you know clearly

415
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,160
Speaker 1: if you are going. And here's the thing with Cliff,

416
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,439
Speaker 1: like when you get a guy like Jayden who the

417
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: question mark is now, it's like, we got to keep

418
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 1: him healthy. We gotta be careful with him. He could

419
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: be a little reckless. We'll see easiest way to keep

420
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 1: him healthy. Run the football, have a run oriented operation.

421
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:07,160
Speaker 1: And I would imagine Dan Quinn and this listen, Adam

422
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,400
Speaker 1: Peters had a front row seat for a long time

423
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:13,439
Speaker 1: for Kyle Shanahan and you know that offense, and you

424
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 1: just have to wonder, like, you know, Lafloor's not the

425
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: packer one, but the brother who's now Mike, who's with

426
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:25,480
Speaker 1: the Jets and who is now with the Rams under McVeigh,

427
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,439
Speaker 1: Like I wonder if he will want to institute something

428
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 1: like that, some version of that for jayde And why

429
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,400
Speaker 1: because it's not only quarterback friendly, it's keep your quarterback,

430
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,560
Speaker 1: you know, away from chaos, a lot of play action

431
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 1: stuff and obviously running the ball as paramount, but Washington,

432
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 1: Like I think Dan Quinn is immediately on the odd

433
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 1: seat because this team was the oldest team in the NFL.

434
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 1: Some of the guys like Deebo Samuel's a free agent.

435
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 1: You know, Bobby Wagner who had to play all season long,

436
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 1: all time great player, legendary player. I mean, he had

437
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 1: no business being on the field this year. Couldn't move

438
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 1: and it's a space league, so you're you know, you're

439
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: playing in the open field, and he just couldn't cover

440
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 1: a soul, he couldn't change direction. It was it was

441
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: tough to watch. If it was just a run play downhill,

442
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 1: he could make it. But most of the plays in

443
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 1: the NFL get you going laterally and you kind of

444
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: felt bad watching it. But that's on the organization. And

445
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 1: now you fire the defensive coordinator as well. Here's what

446
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,679
Speaker 1: head coaches always do. They start pointing the finger. And

447
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 1: what's crazy to me is last year everything was great,

448
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 1: and then this year that these guys just forget how

449
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,400
Speaker 1: to coach football. Or are you kind of admitting, like, eah,

450
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 1: we's never really believed in these guys from the jump.

451
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 1: But listen, Washington, we thought had turned the corner when

452
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,560
Speaker 1: they hired Adam, when they hired Dan Quinn, they got

453
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: this new ownership. This year was pretty chaotic and now

454
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 1: they're blowing out people left and right. So the owner

455
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,400
Speaker 1: comes from the NBA, in a sport that gets very

456
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: used to firing coaches, the seventy six yers, they will

457
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 1: not hesitate shit cand of people, so he ain't afraid

458
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,160
Speaker 1: to pay people to go away. And the one thing

459
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 1: in the NFL, especially when you have a young quarterback stability. Well,

460
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: Jane Daniels on his second offensive coordinator now in three years,

461
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: and he's coming off an injury riddled year. So whoever

462
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,639
Speaker 1: they hire, whatever system that they implement, is going to

463
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 1: be extremely important for the long term health of Jane

464
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: Daniel's career. Which is crazy because last year he looked

465
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: like a superstar and this year just fell apart every

466
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: you know which way from the jump. It felt like

467
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 1: he was injured from the jump and never looked right

468
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 1: when he played. And last on the ownership front, I

469
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: watched some of Carly Ursay's press conference pretty clear and listen,

470
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,439
Speaker 1: not everyone's a good public speaker. I totally get it.

471
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,719
Speaker 1: My brother, who can do so many things that I

472
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 1: can't dream of doing could barely speak at my wedding

473
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:49,879
Speaker 1: to give a speech. He was so nervos couldn't even

474
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 1: eat his dinner. And so it's like, there are certain

475
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 1: things I can't relate to. Carly Ursay not a great

476
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 1: public speaker, but like I've seen it, Like I don't

477
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,200
Speaker 1: judge you on that. Not everyone's comfortable speaking in front

478
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 1: of people. That doesn't make or break you as a

479
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: quote unquote leader to be not comfortable in front of

480
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:10,479
Speaker 1: the press, and in twenty twenty five owners rarely talk anyway.

481
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 1: But I just tried to take away her words and

482
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,479
Speaker 1: she didn't really have any Like she couldn't really justify Beside,

483
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,679
Speaker 1: she likes Chris Ballard and she thinks Shane Sichen's good

484
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 1: at his job. And obviously Chris Ballard's gone nine plus years,

485
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,440
Speaker 1: has a woner division has been in the playoffs. I

486
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 1: think I saw someone say it's seven years. That was

487
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:34,479
Speaker 1: like Luck's last healthy year playing. And I got an

488
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 1: interesting text from a buddy in the NFL about the Colts,

489
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 1: and I think They're bigger issue is the team has

490
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: a lot of question marks. You know, obviously the quarterback

491
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 1: situation is a disaster. The guy that was gonna resurrect

492
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 1: their franchise just because he was competent. Has a torn

493
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,959
Speaker 1: achilles and he is a broken leg, but so obviously

494
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 1: Anthony Rigton is not to be on this team next year.

495
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: There is even said with Kirk Cousins, who now granted

496
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: he was older but not mobile. Cousins looked way better

497
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 1: this year than he did last year. So to think

498
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: that Daniel Jones, these guys, if they don't make the

499
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: playoffs next year, they're just both getting fired, no matter

500
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 1: how much he likes him or not, because there's too

501
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 1: much fan pressure and you can tell they're putting out statements.

502
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 1: She's trying to, you know, say all the right things,

503
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 1: but people are pissed because this team just always sucks

504
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 1: and not suck enough where it's like, okay, we bottomed out.

505
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 1: We can get Fernando Mendoza, like always kind of in

506
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: the middle, like seven, eight, nine wins, just get going

507
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 1: nowhere fast. And a buddy sent me this. He's like,

508
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 1: they're in a tough spot. This is a guy that

509
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 1: works in the league. Pittman has regressed. Taylor will want

510
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 1: a contract. Lat too decent but not huge impact. Buck

511
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: and Grover getting older, and I look Jonathan Taylor's contract,

512
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:55,479
Speaker 1: it was built so if it had gone wrong, they

513
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,120
Speaker 1: could have got out this year. So the guaranteed money

514
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,719
Speaker 1: starts changing. So when you're a great player, it's like, well,

515
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,919
Speaker 1: I want my more guaranteed money now, and it's not, well,

516
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,159
Speaker 1: well we haven't been winning. They don't care, and I

517
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 1: don't blame them for not care. You gotta take advantage.

518
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 1: That's the business you're in. But I think the Colts now.

519
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 1: The other thing that's scary is the Texas are solid

520
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 1: right Casario Demiico, their infrastructure, their young players like they're

521
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: going nowhere. But to me, the Jags, it's like, well,

522
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:27,719
Speaker 1: they don't feel like they're going anywhere either. So it's like, uh,

523
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 1: are we sure Daniel Jones is gonna be ready to play?

524
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 1: What if Jonathan Taylor wants, you know, twenty five million

525
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 1: dollars a year. We don't have a first round pick.

526
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 1: I forgot to mention that we do not have a

527
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 1: first round pick for the next two years because of

528
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: the Sauce Gardener trade. And listen, if Sauce is healthy,

529
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:46,480
Speaker 1: it obviously gives us a really good corner. But ideally

530
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 1: that was gonna go with Charvarius Ward, who's also a

531
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 1: good corner, would give us one of the best defensive

532
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 1: backfields in the you know, the league when it comes

533
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 1: to starting corners. Charvarius' dad, and I don't even blame him,

534
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 1: wants him to retire. I think he got three concussions

535
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: this year and he had a unch when he was

536
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 1: with the forty nine ers, like it's a problem. So

537
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 1: you have this situation where you're all in unsauce. You

538
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: need him to be a star because you just trade

539
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 1: the first round picks and the guy you were gonna

540
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 1: pair him with has a serious concussion issue. And there's

541
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 1: I mean, who knows. It's his decision, But wouldn't shock

542
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 1: anybody if he just calls her quits. So I think

543
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: if you're a Colts fan, you go listen. Jim Irsay

544
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 1: was losing his marbles towards the end. It was impulsive,

545
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,719
Speaker 1: But you have this, you know, his daughter now in

546
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 1: this situation where she has a really close relationship with

547
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 1: Chris Ballard, and Chris even said, I guess he told

548
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 1: her like last year, I don't ever want our relationship

549
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 1: to impact your view on my performance, which is easy

550
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 1: for him to stay out loud makes him seem like

551
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 1: good guy and listen. I've never heard a bad word

552
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 1: about Chris, but most people will get fired in his situation.

553
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,000
Speaker 1: And I think it's safe to say if Pops was

554
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 1: still around, you know, in his you know, before the

555
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 1: last couple of years really fell off a cliff, I

556
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 1: think Chris would have been done and he survived because

557
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say she likes him personally.

558
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: The transfer portal, I think this is fascinating. Twenty five

559
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 1: percent of Division one A football players are in the portal.

560
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: I heard a stat there are enough players in the

561
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 1: portal to fill every SEC roster. I'm not a huge

562
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 1: like it's broken, it needs a change. I'm kind of

563
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: entertained by it all. I just talked to a buddy

564
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: who I'm trying to help a guy's son land somewhere,

565
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 1: former big recruit who you know, got four you know.

566
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: Part of the transfer portal now is like when I

567
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 1: worked at frisone State. I remember Pat Hill, there would

568
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: have been twelve fifteen guys a year he just would

569
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 1: have cut right. That were just shittheads that wouldn't listen

570
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: that I'm not even talking because they were bad players.

571
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: And some of that as well, Like you miss on

572
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 1: recruits you could, you weren't allowed to do that really,

573
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 1: right if they were in good academic standing, you kind

574
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 1: of just had to stick with him and you couldn't

575
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 1: just get rid of the scholarship, so you ended up

576
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: keeping them around anyway. Now, what happens. I just saw

577
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 1: Arch Manning's roommate, a wide receiver. It happens all over

578
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: the country, and I know someone personally that happened to.

579
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 1: The coach comes to you and it's typically a younger

580
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 1: player and says, you're never gonna play here. You are

581
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 1: not welcome on the team anymore. Now legally they have

582
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 1: to honor your scholarship, so they say you can stay

583
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 1: on campus and we you know, at Texas, at Arizona,

584
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 1: at wherever, and you can stay on scholarship and just

585
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 1: go to school, but you are no longer on the

586
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: football team. That is something over the last couple of

587
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 1: years that did not exist in college football. Maybe like

588
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: Saban could push a guy out, you know, a big

589
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: time coach could because a big recruit like you're never

590
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: gonna play here, and kind of force his hand, but

591
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 1: not like now or just you can just legitimately tell

592
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 1: a guy you need to leave. It happens in the

593
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 1: NFL all the time. You're just you're cut, right, we're

594
00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: cutting or releasing you, kind of like Eberflus leasing you.

595
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 1: And it happens now. It happens in college football left

596
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: and right. So a lot of these guys in the portal,

597
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: some of them are going in to try to get

598
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 1: more money. A lot of them, especially younger ones, are

599
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 1: told you're not good enough, you're not welcome here. Also,

600
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,040
Speaker 1: we want to go into the portal and get an

601
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 1: older guy. Rick Patino said this a couple of years ago.

602
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 1: High school kids are in major trouble, and it's no

603
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 1: different in college football. Because if you're a college football

604
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: coach trying to win in twenty twenty six, it's my

605
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: thing with Lincoln Riley, it's like he's getting a lot

606
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 1: of credit and he's got this new stud GM that

607
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 1: has the number one recruiting class in the country. Historically,

608
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,760
Speaker 1: that's a massive deal. I'd say in twenty twenty six,

609
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 1: it's never meant less. Ideally you hit on a couple

610
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 1: of those guys, But in like two years, if a

611
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 1: guy's not playing or what he might just leave Hell

612
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 1: in a year he can leave. So I think this

613
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 1: situation is pretty crazy. But I will also say this forever,

614
00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:00,680
Speaker 1: it's been like my child just it's not gonna play

615
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 1: college football. Just be realistic before it even pops out.

616
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 1: But a lot of people that thought their child had

617
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 1: a chance at college athletics, it was because they got

618
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 1: free college. Right. I want to get my son a scholarship,

619
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 1: get my daughter a scholarship, so they go to school

620
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 1: for free, big deal. I mean, it saves you a

621
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 1: lot of money. I don't blame anyone for thinking that,

622
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 1: even though a tiny tiny percent of kids actually go

623
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,360
Speaker 1: to college to you know, to get a full ride,

624
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 1: and then a tiny tiny percent of those guys go

625
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 1: on to play professional sports. Well. Chris Vanini, who covers

626
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 1: college football for The Athletic, I saw he posted this

627
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 1: tweet because he wrote an article that quarterbacks now starting

628
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the power for on the low end or

629
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 1: making a million, and on the high end are making

630
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 1: up four to five million dollars. I just talked to

631
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 1: a college coach today actually, and he was laughing. He says,

632
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,719
Speaker 1: it's crazy that if you are if someone tells you, like, hey,

633
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 1: you're gonna be a fourth round pick. Historically, a lot

634
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 1: of guys I'm leaving. I'm going pro now. It's like

635
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 1: I'm I'm not taking a pay cut, and they stay.

636
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 1: He's like, I bet die I said, Diego Pavio would

637
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 1: play college football if he could till he's like thirty

638
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 1: eight years old. He'd be like Aaron Rodgers of Vanderbilt

639
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 1: in the SEC. I never really, I don't blame him.

640
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 1: I mean, you start making seven figures, like, I don't

641
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:13,799
Speaker 1: want to give this up. I don't want to take

642
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,919
Speaker 1: a pay cut, go into the real world and quarterbacks.

643
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I just saw that Sam Levitt. I don't

644
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 1: think he's officially signed, but there were rumors that go

645
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,479
Speaker 1: to Kentucky for five million dollars. I saw a great

646
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 1: tweet like there's never been greater proof that we printed

647
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:32,200
Speaker 1: too much money. I agree, and I'm not anti anyone

648
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: making money. It seems like I remember Jackson Arnold last

649
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 1: year went to Auburn for like three four million dollars.

650
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:40,879
Speaker 1: It's like, what are we doing? Uh? You know, edge

651
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,239
Speaker 1: rushers on the low end are going for half a

652
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:45,400
Speaker 1: mill on the high end or going for two million.

653
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:49,279
Speaker 1: Offensive tackles, which obviously should you know, go for a lot,

654
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,319
Speaker 1: same thing going up for two million dollars and on

655
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 1: the low end six to seven hundred thousand dollars. There

656
00:34:55,760 --> 00:35:00,800
Speaker 1: has never ever been a better time to be a athlete.

657
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:05,400
Speaker 1: And it's not even close. Obviously, popularity for college football

658
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 1: is at an all time high. Ratings are through the

659
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 1: roof the college Football Playoff. But forever it was a

660
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,359
Speaker 1: really big deal, like I played We all know these people.

661
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 1: I'm forty years old. Like got a buddy, you played

662
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 1: it usc with Pete Carroll, Got a buddy you played it,

663
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 1: you know in Iowa for Kirk Farence. Now he runs

664
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,839
Speaker 1: a bank, or now he's the number one sales guy

665
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,720
Speaker 1: for this medical device company. We all know these people.

666
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,720
Speaker 1: But nowadays, if you just even if you don't sniff

667
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:34,840
Speaker 1: going pro, you're gonna make hundreds of thousands of dollars

668
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 1: if you're playing Division one football. And let's face it,

669
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 1: a lot of these guys. For every you know Bane

670
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 1: or Caleb Downs or all the sweet players, even the

671
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: good starters on the good teams, there are a lot

672
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 1: of below average guys who are cashing in. And you know,

673
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:56,240
Speaker 1: for these parents that used to force their kid like lift, weights,

674
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 1: eat right, all that stuff. I think this stuff's only

675
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 1: getting crazier. It's only gonna get crazy because it's like, yeah,

676
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,959
Speaker 1: we don't even who cares if we even go pro?

677
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 1: If we could make several million dollars in our late

678
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:12,320
Speaker 1: teens and early twenties. I'm still kind of at a loss.

679
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 1: What are these guys doing with all this money? Like

680
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,520
Speaker 1: you spend so much time in the fall playing football meetings,

681
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 1: practice lifting, sleeping. I mean, you don't have that much

682
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:25,240
Speaker 1: time in the day. And a lot of these towns

683
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:27,320
Speaker 1: are small. There wouldn't even be anything to spend a

684
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 1: lot of money on. It's not like you're gonna buy

685
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 1: some you know, million dollar house there. You're you're only

686
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,879
Speaker 1: there for a couple of years. I hope a lot

687
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,959
Speaker 1: of these guys which I wouldn't have I don't even

688
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 1: know what I would have blown it on, but it

689
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:43,759
Speaker 1: would have been the dumbest shit possible. I mean, I

690
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 1: can't even like rent out a movie theater to play

691
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,680
Speaker 1: Call of Duty for the week with all my buddies.

692
00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 1: You can go unlimited food. I mean you would you

693
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 1: would just think of the stupidest stuff ever. Obviously, on

694
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,399
Speaker 1: top of any time you went out, you would pay

695
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 1: for everything. But these cats are living well. Man. Most

696
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 1: of us when we were in college drinking natty lights

697
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:09,160
Speaker 1: and you know, pop off vodka out of a plastic bottle.

698
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:16,439
Speaker 1: Not anymore. They are drinking top shelf good stuff, eating well.

699
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:20,799
Speaker 1: I mean the amount of college kids historically that eat

700
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 1: just Chipotle and McDonald's and just whatever's cheap. These dudes

701
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 1: are going to the steakhouse five nights a week. So

702
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,319
Speaker 1: props to them forgetting the cash, and props to some

703
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 1: of these coaches that can you know, I guess just

704
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,400
Speaker 1: get rid of guys. I did want to start something

705
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 1: new as someone. I'm recording this on Tuesday, kind of

706
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:46,360
Speaker 1: a little after lunch. We have a doctor's appointment to

707
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 1: find out if the baby is flipped right now. Obviously,

708
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 1: the head's up, and for those of you non parents

709
00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:55,320
Speaker 1: or non future parents are in the mix, I wouldn't

710
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,879
Speaker 1: even have known this either. The head's gotta be down

711
00:37:57,960 --> 00:37:59,839
Speaker 1: for the baby to come out naturally. If the head

712
00:37:59,920 --> 00:38:02,799
Speaker 1: is up, you gotta open up the belly and take

713
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: the baby out. Turns out my baby or future son

714
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 1: has a ninety percent dome big head. I got a

715
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 1: big head too, so I don't know, you know, if

716
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,880
Speaker 1: she you know, she's only she's like five to five,

717
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,200
Speaker 1: so it's not like she's super long for the baby

718
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 1: to move around. So pretty good chance. Next Thursday we

719
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,319
Speaker 1: will be having this baby. And I said, you know,

720
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 1: as we transition to Netflix, gotta mix it up and

721
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: have a little fun. So I'm gonna notice so much

722
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:32,720
Speaker 1: stuff with being a father, doing stuff funny, serious things

723
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 1: that pissed me off. Everything around the kid too. I'm

724
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,920
Speaker 1: not even specifically talking about the human being. I'm just

725
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 1: talking about everything that surrounds the baby. We went to

726
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,759
Speaker 1: this pediatrician the other day, like another couple, and he

727
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,799
Speaker 1: was telling us all this stuff. It's just so much

728
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 1: stuff that is not even out of your comfort zone,

729
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 1: but you couldn't even fathom what you're getting involved in,

730
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:57,279
Speaker 1: which is it's also fun. But I thought, let's just

731
00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:00,160
Speaker 1: write down things that I think or things that I

732
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 1: want to rant on and call it the Dad Diaries

733
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:04,799
Speaker 1: because a lot of you guys are fathers out there,

734
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,279
Speaker 1: some of you have older kids that can relate to this.

735
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:11,680
Speaker 1: I want to start with this because I was born

736
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty four and most people in my life

737
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:21,160
Speaker 1: up until about high school, were all like similar, Like

738
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,400
Speaker 1: I guess middle class just normal and middle class. Back then,

739
00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 1: people making thirty forty grand a year, like, most people

740
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,880
Speaker 1: all kind of on the same level. So whether you

741
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 1: made thirty grand or sixty grand, like, everyone was kind

742
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 1: of the same. I didn't know people that were multi millionaires.

743
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 1: But the thing was that every kid looked the same

744
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 1: if you just went around, most of us had a

745
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:45,240
Speaker 1: couple pair of shorts, couple shirts, maybe a pair of shoes. Honestly,

746
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,239
Speaker 1: up until I was like in high school, I feel

747
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,920
Speaker 1: like it didn't have that many clothes. I would wear

748
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 1: a lot of like my high school football teams T

749
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:55,839
Speaker 1: shirts that we got, or I was on the golf team,

750
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: like colored shirts they'd give us. I had a couple

751
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,000
Speaker 1: pair of shorts, pair of Nike sh use maybe I

752
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,200
Speaker 1: mean a couple of hats. I feel like most kids

753
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 1: in my generation, like the eighties and the nineties, we

754
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: all kind of looked the same, unless you were like

755
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 1: I don't know, like a Trump or some really rich

756
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 1: person like dressed up. I felt like I wore the

757
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 1: same clothes as everyone else I was around, Like I

758
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,200
Speaker 1: went to high school. You look back at some pictures

759
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,840
Speaker 1: we were all wearing the same stuff. My unmorn child,

760
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:28,359
Speaker 1: he has not even come out yet, easily has more

761
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:32,120
Speaker 1: clothes in his room. And I would say eighty percent

762
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: we have purchased. My mother in law came down with

763
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,839
Speaker 1: two suitcases because like her cousins and some of our

764
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:41,320
Speaker 1: family members gave us a bunch of clothes. But obviously

765
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 1: it's a little more difficult when you live in a

766
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,920
Speaker 1: different state than a lot of people you know to travel.

767
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:47,520
Speaker 1: It's not like I can just drive over and get

768
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:49,960
Speaker 1: the stuff, so it's like we're just purchasing it. And

769
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,479
Speaker 1: I think a big thing is this changed the game.

770
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:54,839
Speaker 1: And I would say this for myself as well. Even

771
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,839
Speaker 1: though I basically have a closet full of clothes, I

772
00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 1: wear probably ten percent of them three d and sixty

773
00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:02,360
Speaker 1: five days a year. I think I read a stat

774
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:06,879
Speaker 1: most human beings, unless you're in a certain industry, wear

775
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 1: like less than twenty percent of their clothes, which to

776
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:11,840
Speaker 1: me is very true. But this baby, who is going

777
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: to grow at a rapid rate, probably has more clothes

778
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 1: before he's even arrived than I had the first ten

779
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 1: years of my life. And she's not alone like I'm

780
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,279
Speaker 1: not putting this on her for doing this. I think

781
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 1: this is a big thing with the Internet and the

782
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 1: clothing industry. You could argue no industry has benefited more.

783
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 1: And I'm not even counting babies. I'm just out in

784
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:37,880
Speaker 1: clothing industry in general because the social media marketing like

785
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 1: it works, like that wasn't even an option. We just

786
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 1: went over to places when I was like seven or

787
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 1: eight or ten, and people just had the three ring

788
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:49,879
Speaker 1: binders of polaroids in a laminate and You're like, oh,

789
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:54,320
Speaker 1: cool picture, cool pictures. That was our Facebook, that was

790
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 1: our Instagram. And I just think the simpler times made it.

791
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:01,879
Speaker 1: I don't even know if it was good or bad.

792
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,080
Speaker 1: I just think we all look the same and every

793
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 1: single person kind of wore the same shit that clearly

794
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:11,480
Speaker 1: is not the came my son from jackets to corduroys

795
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,879
Speaker 1: to cool onesies like I don't think I had any

796
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:16,279
Speaker 1: of that when I was a kid. And here's the

797
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 1: other thing. We have more contraptions of bottle washers, three

798
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:29,360
Speaker 1: different strollers, trash can that has a special contraption to

799
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,960
Speaker 1: like get rid of the odor on the shits, to

800
00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 1: changing tables, to all sorts of stuff that Again, I'm

801
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,319
Speaker 1: not trying to be a Debbie Downer here because I'm

802
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 1: excited and it's fun. But I told a buddy the

803
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:45,919
Speaker 1: other day, people have been having kids since the cave

804
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,840
Speaker 1: man days. And even if you just go back to

805
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 1: like when my parents were born, you know, if your

806
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 1: parents in the fifties and sixties, whatever, it's like people

807
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,400
Speaker 1: didn't even wear seatbelts. They threw their kid in the

808
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,160
Speaker 1: back of the car. They just threw their kid in

809
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,840
Speaker 1: the crip. Now it's like kids wear whooped. There are

810
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,919
Speaker 1: all these rules, and I just wonder if we've over

811
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:09,799
Speaker 1: complicated this stuff a little. I just can't imagine that

812
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 1: all these contraptions are necessary because I think back to

813
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 1: and again, it's not like I have that many memories

814
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,400
Speaker 1: from being you know, obviously being one or two, but

815
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:23,080
Speaker 1: I kind of remember, you know, when my brother was born,

816
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,120
Speaker 1: when I was like four and a half five years old,

817
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 1: definitely when we shared a room up until I was

818
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 1: probably like ten or eleven, and we only had a

819
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 1: two bedroom house. So by the time I was like

820
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: I got to junior high, like, I don't want to

821
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 1: live with Jeff anymore, so they put me in the

822
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 1: living room before we kind of did this room model

823
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:40,040
Speaker 1: and added a room. Because we only had two bedrooms.

824
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: We put me in the living room. My dad got

825
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:44,720
Speaker 1: cubicles like you see in an office and just created

826
00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:46,600
Speaker 1: a cubicle in the corner of the living room and

827
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,400
Speaker 1: I lived there, I think for like a year. I

828
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,799
Speaker 1: was like, my son is never gonna have those type experiences,

829
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 1: which I fucking hated at the time. I'm not gonna lie.

830
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it sucked, but it did build a little character.

831
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 1: And I just think these contraptions. I just remember we've

832
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:07,239
Speaker 1: had a room. There was a crib, and that was

833
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:09,919
Speaker 1: just kind of my room, and then eventually Jeff came.

834
00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 1: We got me a single bed in the corner, and

835
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 1: then he just took the crib. I don't remember any contraptions.

836
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 1: I don't remember like thousand dollars strollers, and we just

837
00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:25,359
Speaker 1: I don't remember like rules about blankets and whoops and

838
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 1: obviously the video monitors. None of that stuff existed. And

839
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:33,759
Speaker 1: we're all just fine. We're all just thriving. Most of

840
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 1: my friends same thing, and we're completely fine. So I

841
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,839
Speaker 1: think the big baby business, which again I don't blame her.

842
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:43,880
Speaker 1: You get pressure. All your friends are buying this stuff.

843
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:47,399
Speaker 1: You just do it, I guess, but I wonder if

844
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:51,080
Speaker 1: we took a step back, how much stuff is unnecessary.

845
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: But he's gonna have it all. And you know, potentially

846
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 1: next Thursday, your boy will have a new son on

847
00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:14,640
Speaker 1: the way. What is going on? Everybody? You know what time?

Speaker 1: your questions answered on the show. Try to go rapid

860
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,040
Speaker 1: fire because I got a lot of questions. I'm gonna

861
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 1: be answering a lot. I mean, we got it's a

862
00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:00,480
Speaker 1: time of year where people are got thoughts, gotta opinions

863
00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:04,279
Speaker 1: and fire in my way, so keep them coming. How

864
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 1: much stock do you put into hiding play calls and

865
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:13,360
Speaker 1: coaches hiding the playbook week seventeen or eighteen against inferior opponents?

866
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 1: As a Bronco fan, I hope to God this is

867
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,879
Speaker 1: the case, but I can't help but worry that our

868
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:22,879
Speaker 1: only hope to win a playoff game is a pick

869
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:28,200
Speaker 1: six and three field goals. It probably varies a little

870
00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 1: team to team, you know, Sean, I saw Ben Johnson

871
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,160
Speaker 1: say that, like, we were trying to win this game.

872
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 1: This wasn't just hiding our stuff. We tried to win

873
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 1: that game, Like we coached all week to win that game.

874
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 1: And people would be like, well, if they got the two,

875
00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 1: they knew they were playing the Packers, they wouldn't want

876
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:48,920
Speaker 1: to show anything. I think the counter and I think

877
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:51,760
Speaker 1: Ben would probably reiterate this. We just had two kitchen

878
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:55,319
Speaker 1: sink games with them within the last month, like at

879
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:59,800
Speaker 1: this point in time, by by week seventeen eighteen, what

880
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:03,960
Speaker 1: are you hiding? Like what type plays would you have

881
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:07,160
Speaker 1: or schemes that you would have You like been holding

882
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,800
Speaker 1: this one for round two? That's that's not really a

883
00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 1: football works. I mean you're throwing most of that stuff

884
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:16,440
Speaker 1: during the season. If you got it, obviously you can

885
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 1: build off that in a playoff game. But I think

886
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 1: that is a little overrated. That's what my gut says

887
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 1: now in a certain situation, like when you're throwing the game,

888
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 1: like the Eagles, like they clearly didn't care, the Chargers

889
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:36,680
Speaker 1: throwing Trey Lance out there and benching a bunch of starters,

890
00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:40,080
Speaker 1: Like yeah, but like I watched it, look like to

891
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:43,160
Speaker 1: me the Bears all their starters were out there. I'd

892
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:44,799
Speaker 1: be lying if I said I was that dialed in

893
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:48,120
Speaker 1: on the Broncos game. I know Boden was playing, but like,

894
00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:50,319
Speaker 1: we're all your starters playing in that game, you kind

895
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:54,040
Speaker 1: of cruise. I wouldn't make that much of that game

896
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:56,080
Speaker 1: in particular, But I do think it's fair to be

897
00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:59,000
Speaker 1: a little nervous going into the playoffs. Do you trust

898
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:02,240
Speaker 1: this team? It's weird about being a number one seed

899
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,360
Speaker 1: and not being that excited. That's what's crazy about the

900
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 1: two number one seeds. If you're Seattle, you're on top

901
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:09,320
Speaker 1: of the moon. If you're Denver, you're like kind of nervous.

902
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:10,960
Speaker 1: I think the best thing you had going for you.

903
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:12,840
Speaker 1: If you're Denver is the conference is kind of weird.

904
00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:17,360
Speaker 1: But what if in that first game, let's say Chalk holds.

905
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:21,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I think there's a decent chance Denver's playing

906
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:25,960
Speaker 1: the Texans or the Bills. So I mean that's those

907
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:29,080
Speaker 1: are tough, either Josh Allen or the Texans defense. Like,

908
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:31,719
Speaker 1: that's a tough first round matchup. I think if you

909
00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,400
Speaker 1: could choose any team to play, if you're the Broncos,

910
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 1: you would want Chalk to hold and play the Steelers.

911
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:41,000
Speaker 1: Do you think John Gruden will ever coach in the

912
00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:43,600
Speaker 1: NFL again? As a Raider fan, Gruden was the last

913
00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:45,720
Speaker 1: coach that seemed to have a plan. The team improved

914
00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:49,319
Speaker 1: every year and went to the playoffs in his third year. Uh.

915
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:52,120
Speaker 1: I think it was his fourth year and they went

916
00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:54,719
Speaker 1: to the playoffs once they fired him. And that was

917
00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:58,239
Speaker 1: also winning the last game of the season. So I

918
00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:02,319
Speaker 1: like John from an entertainment stace. He's very entertaining, you know,

919
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:07,759
Speaker 1: doing his barstool stuff just on the internet. He entertains me.

920
00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 1: I'm very entertained by John Gruden. I do think the

921
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:16,839
Speaker 1: coach John Gruden like the lore, the legend of it all.

922
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:20,400
Speaker 1: When he was doing Monday Night Football, probably grew to

923
00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 1: disproportionate amounts, and I do think he's a little overrated,

924
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 1: and he's also a terrible evaluator. He's not very good

925
00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 1: in the draft, and he's kind of a power hungery guy.

926
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:35,359
Speaker 1: So I don't think he's ever working in the NFL. Again,

927
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:38,600
Speaker 1: I don't, and I'm not even talking about the suing.

928
00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:42,520
Speaker 1: I just don't like who would hire him now, especially

929
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,719
Speaker 1: a lot of these gms like they know he'll try

930
00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:47,880
Speaker 1: to get rid of them. Do you think we'll ever

931
00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:50,560
Speaker 1: get to the point where a top quarterback prospect refuses

932
00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:52,920
Speaker 1: to play for some of these teams, like the Jets

933
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:57,280
Speaker 1: or the Browns. Obviously, being drafted high financially changes their lives,

934
00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:00,000
Speaker 1: but over the last twenty years, these organizations are clearly

935
00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:03,759
Speaker 1: poorly run. So do you think in any way these

936
00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:07,000
Speaker 1: guys start to say no to teams. You do have

937
00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:11,279
Speaker 1: to wonder if the nil money like gives him a

938
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:14,279
Speaker 1: little more leverage. If I'm a starting quarterback coming out

939
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:16,280
Speaker 1: and I've made ten million dollars the last two years,

940
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:19,560
Speaker 1: it's a little bit different than just having no money

941
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 1: going to the first place is gonna pay you. I

942
00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:25,279
Speaker 1: remember the first time I ever got forty grand working

943
00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,480
Speaker 1: for the Eagles. I was like, I hit the jackpot.

944
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 1: So it's in a lot of college people feel that way.

945
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 1: Whether you're an athlete or whether you're just a normal kid.

946
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:35,160
Speaker 1: The first time you ever get a paycheck's a big deal.

947
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:37,520
Speaker 1: Now if you're a college quarterback. These guys are making

948
00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:40,239
Speaker 1: four or five million dollars a year. Carson Beck. I

949
00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 1: think Carson he's a bad example because he's not gonna

950
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:45,200
Speaker 1: go high. But Carson Beck's made a lot of money

951
00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:48,920
Speaker 1: the last couple of years, So I would imagine it's

952
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 1: gonna happen at one point in time because I would

953
00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:55,799
Speaker 1: not play for the Jets. How could you? How could you?

954
00:50:57,120 --> 00:51:00,920
Speaker 1: The Raiders? I like, who's my coach? The Raiders a

955
00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:04,239
Speaker 1: little more enticing because like they're just gonna be like,

956
00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:07,800
Speaker 1: we're gonna have you talk with Tom Brady constantly. I

957
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:10,759
Speaker 1: think that's gonna be the draw. And I don't feel

958
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:14,799
Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoz is doing that question. Have you gotten back

959
00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 1: and watched Tyler Shuck's the last six or seven games?

960
00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 1: I have a life. The answer is no. I watched

961
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:23,719
Speaker 1: a lot of them live, though I've watched probably three

962
00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:26,720
Speaker 1: of his last five games three of his last four games.

963
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 1: Where's the question. What impressed me was a situation he

964
00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:34,120
Speaker 1: was playing a young, banged up offensive line, handing the

965
00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:36,880
Speaker 1: ball to fourth and string running backs, throwing to a

966
00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:41,120
Speaker 1: lave plus replacement level receivers. I know I'm biased, but

967
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:44,279
Speaker 1: did you view that shuck showed down the stretch given

968
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:47,200
Speaker 1: the circumstances. I got a text from a guy on

969
00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:51,239
Speaker 1: their staff I think after his first start that said,

970
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:54,400
Speaker 1: we got a guy. Obviously got a little bumpy after that,

971
00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:58,400
Speaker 1: but down the stretch. The pick against Atlanta was an ideal,

972
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:03,560
Speaker 1: But honestly, if you're you would actually rather lose that

973
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,560
Speaker 1: game at that point for draft status. I think he

974
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:09,160
Speaker 1: looks really, really talented. He's got a lot of things

975
00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 1: going for him. He's big, he can run, he has touch,

976
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:16,879
Speaker 1: Like that's the amazing part about him. You look at him,

977
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:21,200
Speaker 1: just you see his physical stature. You think, when people

978
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:22,680
Speaker 1: are hyping him up, you think he's gonna have this

979
00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:25,920
Speaker 1: like powerful throw one hundred miles an hour. He's actually,

980
00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:28,360
Speaker 1: to me more of a touch thrower. Not that he

981
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:32,120
Speaker 1: has a weak arm, but it feels a little goffy.

982
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:34,439
Speaker 1: I don't know. He just has a lot of touch

983
00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:38,200
Speaker 1: on his ball. Very impressed. He's definitely the starting quarterback

984
00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:44,680
Speaker 1: next year. Why is it that coaches fall off so

985
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,560
Speaker 1: hard when they get old. Obviously, when players get older,

986
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:49,719
Speaker 1: their body starts to fall apart, but that's not really

987
00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:53,000
Speaker 1: a factor for coaches. For instance, what about Pete Carroll

988
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:57,400
Speaker 1: changed in the last five years that affected his coaching ability?

989
00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:02,239
Speaker 1: Just think about humans in your life. Think about my

990
00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:05,720
Speaker 1: dad's been dead for a while, but like when they're

991
00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:08,439
Speaker 1: in their forties or their fifties, how vibrant they are.

992
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:11,520
Speaker 1: And then whether it's your grandpa, whether it's your father,

993
00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:15,160
Speaker 1: whether it's just people in your life that as they

994
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:19,239
Speaker 1: get in their sixties, definitely in their seventies, you just

995
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:22,239
Speaker 1: slow down. You do not have the same juice. And

996
00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:25,919
Speaker 1: peak Carrol's a good example, Like he's healthy, energetic. There

997
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:28,880
Speaker 1: is no way your pistons upstairs are firing at the

998
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:32,960
Speaker 1: same level combined with your physical energy the same when

999
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:35,799
Speaker 1: you were fifty eight years old. Like the peak Carrol

1000
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:38,520
Speaker 1: that we saw in twenty thirteen, how could he match

1001
00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:41,880
Speaker 1: that in twenty twenty five, And he probably tried. He

1002
00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:44,240
Speaker 1: probably in his mind thinks he's doing the best possible,

1003
00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:47,839
Speaker 1: but it can't be the same. It just can't. And

1004
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:51,640
Speaker 1: the other thing I heard, I think, like comedians say this.

1005
00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:55,759
Speaker 1: I forget who it was what I was listening to,

1006
00:53:57,560 --> 00:54:00,200
Speaker 1: but it was like, that's a really good point. Like

1007
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:03,879
Speaker 1: think about Belichick in like two thousand and five, when

1008
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,960
Speaker 1: Belichick woke up, when that alarm went off at five

1009
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:09,359
Speaker 1: point fifteen in the morning or five thirty or five,

1010
00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:12,120
Speaker 1: whenever the hell he gets up, the first thing that

1011
00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:18,160
Speaker 1: crossed his mind was football. Was football, the team. How

1012
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:21,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna do whatever schematically or cut a guy or

1013
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 1: acquire a guy. And he was excited to get out

1014
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 1: of bed because he was doing football. There is no

1015
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:36,200
Speaker 1: way those guys, Pete Bill, when that alarm goes off,

1016
00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:40,319
Speaker 1: their fire for football is the same. It's seventy five

1017
00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:43,440
Speaker 1: years old, with all that money in the bank. I

1018
00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:47,080
Speaker 1: just don't believe it. I don't believe especially when like

1019
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 1: what are you? I'm not trying to prove something that

1020
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:53,080
Speaker 1: I already haven't done. So like Jim Harbaugh, for example,

1021
00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:57,520
Speaker 1: Jim Harball's made a ton of money and is well

1022
00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:00,319
Speaker 1: established now. Jim Harbaugh is a really good coach, but

1023
00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:02,759
Speaker 1: he's in the NFL now, and it's like, can the

1024
00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:05,680
Speaker 1: guy win the Super Bowl. So every single day when

1025
00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:08,120
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh's alarm goes off, like I want to win

1026
00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:10,759
Speaker 1: the super Bowl, Kyle Shanahan to, I want to win

1027
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:12,920
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. A lot of these guys like I

1028
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:18,799
Speaker 1: want to be a super Bowl winner. And I just

1029
00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:21,480
Speaker 1: think that that drive is something that these guys when

1030
00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:23,759
Speaker 1: they get in their seventies, I'm sorry, they just I

1031
00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:27,680
Speaker 1: don't believe they have it anymore. I don't just I've

1032
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:31,880
Speaker 1: known people that very successful, like multi millionaire business owners

1033
00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:34,279
Speaker 1: that know people that work for them. They're like, yeah,

1034
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:37,120
Speaker 1: some weeks they just don't see him, or ten years ago,

1035
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:38,960
Speaker 1: it's like he was in the office every single day.

1036
00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:41,480
Speaker 1: You get a little older, you get a little more perspective,

1037
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:45,840
Speaker 1: maybe get grandkids, Maybe you just don't care as much anymore.

1038
00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:49,160
Speaker 1: It's called life. So I think it's less about like

1039
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:54,399
Speaker 1: does Pete know how to run a team meeting? Does

1040
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:59,200
Speaker 1: Pete know what defense is good against X, Y and

1041
00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:03,200
Speaker 1: Z offensive goals? The same with Bill Belichick. Yes, do

1042
00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:05,840
Speaker 1: I think those guys could talk football or Nick Saban

1043
00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:08,440
Speaker 1: at seventy four years old with anybody right now? Of course,

1044
00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:12,040
Speaker 1: part of the reason Nick Saban retired and clearly if

1045
00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:15,560
Speaker 1: you look at him, he ain't coming back. Life's too good.

1046
00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:17,640
Speaker 1: It's funny like when people go, do you ever want

1047
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:18,960
Speaker 1: to go back to the NFL? Do I ever want

1048
00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:21,319
Speaker 1: to go back to the NFL? You fucking out of

1049
00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:26,600
Speaker 1: your mind? No, My life's took great. Plus I didn't like.

1050
00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:29,000
Speaker 1: The one thing I'll never forget, and this is what

1051
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:32,520
Speaker 1: Coach Reid has at the highest levels. His passion for

1052
00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:35,799
Speaker 1: football and people that I know, a bunch of people

1053
00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:38,360
Speaker 1: that work for the cheese, I'll never forget. After he

1054
00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:40,480
Speaker 1: won his first Super Bowl, maybe it was the second

1055
00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:43,960
Speaker 1: super Bowl, it would have been twenty twenty two. I

1056
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:47,239
Speaker 1: was at the combine and one of my buddies on

1057
00:56:47,239 --> 00:56:49,319
Speaker 1: the staff, we were bs, and he's like, you know,

1058
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:51,439
Speaker 1: it's crazy. You just Coach Reed's car in the off

1059
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:55,359
Speaker 1: season Saturday at the office. He just loves it. He's

1060
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:58,799
Speaker 1: just addicted. One day maybe he won't be the same.

1061
00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:01,760
Speaker 1: But as long as you have that pure addiction going,

1062
00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:04,600
Speaker 1: and you know, I think there's an age limit where

1063
00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:08,400
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, it's it's hard once you get over seventy.

1064
00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:11,279
Speaker 1: I think I just think it is when you're going

1065
00:57:11,320 --> 00:57:15,160
Speaker 1: against the Kevin o'connells and mcfay's and Mike McDonald's and Kyle's.

1066
00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:18,560
Speaker 1: I mean, all these guys are in fifty Frabel's fifty.

1067
00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:21,320
Speaker 1: They just have more energy than you. They just have

1068
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:28,440
Speaker 1: more stamina. If you're the owner of the GM of

1069
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:31,760
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers, what are you doing with Todd There's a

1070
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 1: real argument, depending on the Falcons hire, that he could

1071
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,560
Speaker 1: be the worst head coach in the worst division in football.

1072
00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:42,800
Speaker 1: He's better than Canalis, Like, you can't put Canalis above him.

1073
00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 1: Canal is called a flea flicker in the rain made

1074
00:57:46,320 --> 00:57:51,600
Speaker 1: the playoffs at eighty nine. Todd Bowles, Like Todd Bowles

1075
00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:55,080
Speaker 1: is a big time defensive coach. I know his defense

1076
00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:58,080
Speaker 1: sucks now, but he knows defense. Todd Bowle is a

1077
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:01,880
Speaker 1: good coach. If there was an option for an offensive

1078
00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,479
Speaker 1: stud I think you would fire him and hire that guy.

1079
00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,440
Speaker 1: I just don't think that guy exists. I think if

1080
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:09,520
Speaker 1: they had a good replacement, they would fire Todd Bowles

1081
00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:13,920
Speaker 1: and replace them. But I just don't think that guy exists.

1082
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:17,080
Speaker 1: So I think it's easy to say fire him, and

1083
00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:20,120
Speaker 1: I get it if you're a Buccaneers fan, But I

1084
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:23,200
Speaker 1: just don't see who the replacement is obviously, if you

1085
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:25,240
Speaker 1: could have a redo, you would. It's clear what you

1086
00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:29,600
Speaker 1: would do. Uh Liam, you're in the big room. Todd,

1087
00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:34,720
Speaker 1: we love you, but you gots to go. But you

1088
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:50,640
Speaker 1: didn't do that, And now look at the options. Is

1089
00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:52,360
Speaker 1: it a hot take to say the Bears are actually

1090
00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:54,120
Speaker 1: the worst team in the NFC North. They have the

1091
00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:58,600
Speaker 1: fourth place schedule. Uh No, I mean, come on, guys.

1092
00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:05,080
Speaker 1: They won the division. They armed it. I this is

1093
00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:07,880
Speaker 1: a bottom line business. I think that division is actually

1094
00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:10,880
Speaker 1: much closer. I mean the Bears easily could have lost

1095
00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:16,920
Speaker 1: the Packers twice. Obviously, the Lions beat him twice, they

1096
00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:22,280
Speaker 1: beat Minnesota. They lost to Minnesota week one, So what

1097
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 1: was a divisional record? Three and three? That division is tough, man.

1098
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:30,160
Speaker 1: It is the Lions. I mean, let's face it, If

1099
00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:35,320
Speaker 1: the Lions play the Panthers tomorrow, who picking Lions are good?

1100
00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:38,360
Speaker 1: If the Vikings just had decent quarterback play, like, they're

1101
00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:42,040
Speaker 1: pretty good too. And obviously the Packers went healthier Super

1102
00:59:42,040 --> 00:59:46,160
Speaker 1: Bowl contender. We've seen offenses run more heavy sets this season,

1103
00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:48,520
Speaker 1: and it seems like more good teams have three quality

1104
00:59:48,560 --> 00:59:51,520
Speaker 1: tight ends on their roster. The Rams miss Higbee for

1105
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:54,240
Speaker 1: six weeks and still at three dudes Knox Kinkaid and

1106
00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:57,960
Speaker 1: Buffalo Comet in Loveland, Chicago. From a scouting draft perspective,

1107
00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:01,600
Speaker 1: are there just more athletes that have that skill set?

1108
01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:03,600
Speaker 1: Seems like there are plenty of six to five white

1109
01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:07,760
Speaker 1: guys out there that can run and block. With the

1110
01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:10,200
Speaker 1: amount of good players in college in the NFL will

1111
01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:12,919
Speaker 1: be a devaluation of the position in terms of draft

1112
01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:16,400
Speaker 1: capital needed to acquire good tight end play. I think

1113
01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:20,000
Speaker 1: part of it is tight ends are a much bigger

1114
01:00:20,040 --> 01:00:22,680
Speaker 1: mismatch than just your run of the mill wide receiver

1115
01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:26,400
Speaker 1: because if I get Cole Kmet or Loveland, who's covering

1116
01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:30,040
Speaker 1: that guy on the other team? My tight end is

1117
01:00:30,080 --> 01:00:33,480
Speaker 1: six four six' five can. Run look At comet's the

1118
01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:36,880
Speaker 1: two point conversion. Catch he, had the body, type the

1119
01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:41,840
Speaker 1: red zone. Ability they're like basketball. Players so safeties aren't big.

1120
01:00:41,960 --> 01:00:45,919
Speaker 1: Enough corners while they're fast, enough there don't weigh. Enough

1121
01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 1: it's just a physical. Mismatch so you see a lot

1122
01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:52,960
Speaker 1: of these teams utilizing the tight end way more because

1123
01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:56,200
Speaker 1: especially if a guy can, block it helps the run,

1124
01:00:56,240 --> 01:00:58,600
Speaker 1: game and in the past game like they just can't

1125
01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:02,800
Speaker 1: cover those. Guys SO i THINK i think that's. It

1126
01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:05,800
Speaker 1: you just have these athletic tight ends that are six

1127
01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:08,840
Speaker 1: three to six five that you can have a lot

1128
01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:13,920
Speaker 1: of personnel or formation. VERSATILITY i think that's a big.

1129
01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:17,360
Speaker 1: KEY i haven't looked at the draft class this year

1130
01:01:17,360 --> 01:01:19,920
Speaker 1: of how many good tight ends there, are but there

1131
01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:21,160
Speaker 1: are just a lot of good tight ends come in

1132
01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:24,040
Speaker 1: the league over the course of the LAST i don't, know,

1133
01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:27,360
Speaker 1: decade even just random Guy Ko komet's a good. Example

1134
01:01:27,960 --> 01:01:34,000
Speaker 1: he's just, solid you, know you, Know, Bowers, Loveland. WARREN i,

1135
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:36,320
Speaker 1: mean like high end tight ends are coming in the.

1136
01:01:36,360 --> 01:01:40,360
Speaker 1: League last night In lamar's press, conference he, SAID i

1137
01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:43,400
Speaker 1: don't know what else we could do to win after

1138
01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:45,560
Speaker 1: putting the season on the line with a young, Kicker

1139
01:01:45,880 --> 01:01:47,680
Speaker 1: how do you think the ravens On lamar can go?

1140
01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:51,760
Speaker 1: Forward especially with the other elite quarterbacks Like josh seemingly

1141
01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:55,440
Speaker 1: running past. HIM i wouldn't say they were running past.

1142
01:01:55,520 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 1: Him lamar just seen to stay on the. Field he's

1143
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:59,520
Speaker 1: one of the best players in the. LEAGUE i would

1144
01:01:59,560 --> 01:02:02,600
Speaker 1: agree with. Them they had a forty five or, whatever

1145
01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:05,120
Speaker 1: a forty three yard field. Goal they did everything they

1146
01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:08,200
Speaker 1: could to. WIN i Saw DeAndre, Hopkins he's, like we're

1147
01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:11,200
Speaker 1: three yards away from playing the. Postseason that's the thing with.

1148
01:02:11,240 --> 01:02:14,200
Speaker 1: Sports you know what they say in, basketball make or miss,

1149
01:02:14,240 --> 01:02:17,800
Speaker 1: league that's field. Goals guy makes, it he's a. Hero

1150
01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:21,440
Speaker 1: they carry him off he misses. It people are probably

1151
01:02:21,520 --> 01:02:24,320
Speaker 1: saying mean stuff to him social. MEDIA i think they

1152
01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:27,040
Speaker 1: are BECAUSE i saw a post, like, yeah that's if

1153
01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:28,880
Speaker 1: you don't want, that just don't be on social. Media

1154
01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:32,520
Speaker 1: like you can't get the best of both. Worlds it's

1155
01:02:32,560 --> 01:02:35,360
Speaker 1: got gutter rats and it's got normal people that give you,

1156
01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:39,320
Speaker 1: compliments but people complaining about, like, oh the vile things like,

1157
01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:42,560
Speaker 1: yeah welcome to The. INTERNET i, mean it, sucks but

1158
01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:45,160
Speaker 1: you can't take the good and not get the. Bad

1159
01:02:45,360 --> 01:02:48,240
Speaker 1: that's not the way it. Works that's the least shocking

1160
01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:51,160
Speaker 1: thing you've ever seen that people are saying crazy things

1161
01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:54,280
Speaker 1: to him and his, Wife like it's it's just the

1162
01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:57,000
Speaker 1: sick thing that we call social. MEDIA i, mean it

1163
01:02:57,040 --> 01:02:58,960
Speaker 1: is what it. Is so why so many people are

1164
01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:02,240
Speaker 1: getting away like we're trying to figure out, again we're

1165
01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:06,200
Speaker 1: a long way from, this but you, know kids with

1166
01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:10,000
Speaker 1: social media and screen time and it's easy to say without,

1167
01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:12,880
Speaker 1: it you know before you have. One but it's a

1168
01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 1: major conversation for a lot of you, know, parents because

1169
01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:18,800
Speaker 1: of just HOW i, Mean i've lived through, it my

1170
01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:21,720
Speaker 1: business is through. It it just can. Be it has great,

1171
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:25,120
Speaker 1: benefits but it can be really really. Ugly AND i

1172
01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:29,280
Speaker 1: think social media can create things like The lamar, discussion

1173
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:31,840
Speaker 1: like is he really like on the trading? Block was

1174
01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:35,000
Speaker 1: that a real thing or is that just conversation that

1175
01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:37,080
Speaker 1: kind of grows on The internet and it's not real at.

1176
01:03:37,120 --> 01:03:40,960
Speaker 1: All AND i think There's John harbut's getting fired Before

1177
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:45,320
Speaker 1: Lamar jackson's getting. TRADED i think The ravens end of the,

1178
01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:47,040
Speaker 1: day they're one of the best drafting teams in the,

1179
01:03:47,080 --> 01:03:48,840
Speaker 1: league have been for a long. Time they're a well run.

1180
01:03:48,960 --> 01:03:52,560
Speaker 1: Organization they're not going. Anywhere i'd bet on The ravens

1181
01:03:52,640 --> 01:03:58,280
Speaker 1: way BEFORE i bet on The. Bengals it's About Pete

1182
01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:01,560
Speaker 1: carroll coaching in college. Again that ship Sailed. Pete pete's.

1183
01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:05,160
Speaker 1: Done pete needs to just just be, rich, retire live

1184
01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:10,360
Speaker 1: like probably it's over give it. Up easy for me

1185
01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:11,880
Speaker 1: to say in like the prime of my. Career but

1186
01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:15,200
Speaker 1: If i'm holding on AND i suck at seventy five

1187
01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:17,200
Speaker 1: AND i have enough money to do WHATEVER i, want

1188
01:04:18,120 --> 01:04:24,640
Speaker 1: that's on, Me Like i'm a. Loser pie's not a.

1189
01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:29,160
Speaker 1: Loser but it's just, like, well just let, go just go.

1190
01:04:29,320 --> 01:04:33,200
Speaker 1: CHILL nfl. Teams the other, Thing pete's big advantage AT

1191
01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:36,439
Speaker 1: usc back in the, day it's like they could land

1192
01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:39,160
Speaker 1: a player with twenty grand in a. Car those days are,

1193
01:04:39,160 --> 01:04:42,280
Speaker 1: done even THOUGH usc spending a lot of money right

1194
01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:46,680
Speaker 1: now to buy. PLAYERS nfl teams need to Give Kirk

1195
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:48,760
Speaker 1: cousins a big thank you for going five and three

1196
01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:50,959
Speaker 1: and beating The, rams because can we imagine what would

1197
01:04:50,960 --> 01:04:52,920
Speaker 1: happen If sean McVeigh got ahold of a top five.

1198
01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:55,920
Speaker 1: PICK i saw that, today what it, is thirteenth. Pick

1199
01:04:55,960 --> 01:04:58,080
Speaker 1: it's still pretty good. Pick you, KNOW i think The

1200
01:04:58,200 --> 01:05:00,360
Speaker 1: rams would have done. That they got, first just in

1201
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:02,560
Speaker 1: the tight end who clearly McVeigh likes a lot in

1202
01:05:02,600 --> 01:05:06,560
Speaker 1: the thirteenth. Pick that's that's a pretty good. Trade it

1203
01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:09,120
Speaker 1: looked like it was gonna be really. Good like at

1204
01:05:09,160 --> 01:05:10,760
Speaker 1: one point in, time, like are they gonna have the

1205
01:05:10,760 --> 01:05:13,800
Speaker 1: fourth pick in the? Draft? Uh, clearly you Just Bejon.

1206
01:05:13,920 --> 01:05:17,840
Speaker 1: Robinson their defense are too, good but they still got

1207
01:05:17,840 --> 01:05:19,520
Speaker 1: a pretty good. Pick and the other thing with The

1208
01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:22,640
Speaker 1: chiefs at nine and The rams at, thirteen if those

1209
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,160
Speaker 1: teams want to put their nuts on the, table they

01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:05,160
Speaker 1: okay couple. MORE i think we got confirmation about who

1260
01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:07,440
Speaker 1: the problem is In philly after yesterday's. Game how can

1261
01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:09,920
Speaker 1: the starters and the backups score seventeen? Points seems like

1262
01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:12,360
Speaker 1: THE oc is the, problem not Strictly jalen aj THE

1263
01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:15,160
Speaker 1: o line Or. Sirianni if we struggle against the forty nine,

1264
01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:19,479
Speaker 1: ers do we? Well howie And jeffrey finally get rid Of.

1265
01:08:19,479 --> 01:08:22,439
Speaker 1: PETULA i love How, howie and rightfully so is like

1266
01:08:22,560 --> 01:08:24,320
Speaker 1: he's always right there with the, owner you, know like

1267
01:08:24,320 --> 01:08:28,320
Speaker 1: when you talk about The, cowboys you're, like, Uh jerry

1268
01:08:28,800 --> 01:08:31,040
Speaker 1: with The, Eagles Like howie And. Jeffrey it's like they're a.

1269
01:08:31,080 --> 01:08:34,000
Speaker 1: Tandem if they were to lose to the forty nine,

1270
01:08:34,080 --> 01:08:37,280
Speaker 1: ers he's one hundred percent. Fired he's Fired monday. Morning

1271
01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:40,439
Speaker 1: it would be so faster your. Head we'll spend The.

1272
01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:45,800
Speaker 1: EAGLES i think of all the, TEAMS i might do

1273
01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:49,360
Speaker 1: this For, FRIDAY i don't think any team has more

1274
01:08:49,400 --> 01:08:52,800
Speaker 1: pressure on them to win the game Than. PHILLY i

1275
01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:56,040
Speaker 1: actually don't even think it's close because of the disadvantage

1276
01:08:56,040 --> 01:09:00,040
Speaker 1: the forty nine. Ers they don't have, players so and

1277
01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:02,240
Speaker 1: This eagles, team, like why can't we win THE? Nfc

1278
01:09:02,280 --> 01:09:04,640
Speaker 1: why can't we go back to? Back that's what they

1279
01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:06,720
Speaker 1: got to be. THINKING i think there's a lot of

1280
01:09:06,760 --> 01:09:10,679
Speaker 1: pressure on The. Eagles their defense is gonna be, fine

1281
01:09:11,280 --> 01:09:15,719
Speaker 1: but offensively if you can't score, points And washington's probably

1282
01:09:15,720 --> 01:09:18,559
Speaker 1: as shitty as the forty nine ers on. Defense to,

1283
01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:20,840
Speaker 1: me The, eagles especially if it's not, raining if it's just,

1284
01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:25,360
Speaker 1: cold the minimum should be like twenty five twenty six points.

1285
01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:28,439
Speaker 1: MINIMUM i think you should be able to get thirty

1286
01:09:28,479 --> 01:09:32,559
Speaker 1: against The. Niners that's what was crazy About. Seattle that's

1287
01:09:32,560 --> 01:09:34,200
Speaker 1: why the game felt like such a Blood it felt

1288
01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:37,120
Speaker 1: like thirty three missed a couple of field. Goals they

1289
01:09:37,160 --> 01:09:38,960
Speaker 1: went forward on a fourth down at the one yard.

1290
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:43,280
Speaker 1: LINE i mean it easily could have been ten more.

1291
01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:45,840
Speaker 1: Point it could have been twenty six to. Three that's

1292
01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:49,280
Speaker 1: what the game felt. Like, hey last, question you said

1293
01:09:49,280 --> 01:09:51,880
Speaker 1: about a month ago that If mahomes disappeared That andy

1294
01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:54,840
Speaker 1: would be. Fine after seeing them Without, mahomes do you

1295
01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:56,920
Speaker 1: still Believe Josh allen is the best player in THE

1296
01:09:57,040 --> 01:10:01,480
Speaker 1: Nfl WHEN i Say andy would be if he, disappeared

1297
01:10:02,120 --> 01:10:06,519
Speaker 1: they could find another quarterback in an. Offseason obviously in

1298
01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:09,760
Speaker 1: the middle of the. Season If mahomes, disappears you are.

1299
01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:13,559
Speaker 1: Fucked if you are a team Like Josh, Allen Lamar,

1300
01:10:13,640 --> 01:10:16,560
Speaker 1: jackson those type teams AND i remove your starting, quarterback

1301
01:10:17,479 --> 01:10:21,559
Speaker 1: you're in major. Trouble Herbert Drake may the drop off

1302
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:25,559
Speaker 1: Is stafford is gonna be catastrophic IF i give you

1303
01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:28,719
Speaker 1: an offseason to find someone capable with a good offensive.

1304
01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:31,880
Speaker 1: Coach look At Shane Sichin Took Daniel jones are winning

1305
01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:35,920
Speaker 1: games Till Daniel jones' body fell. Apart they were. Fine Kyle,

1306
01:10:35,920 --> 01:10:38,640
Speaker 1: shanahan Like Mac, JONES i can just win games With Mac.

1307
01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:43,559
Speaker 1: Jones kevin, O'Connell Sam, Donald you, know so you don't

1308
01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:46,040
Speaker 1: Think Andy reid would just Sign Sam donald if he

1309
01:10:46,080 --> 01:10:48,000
Speaker 1: didn't have a quarterback or something like. That, yeah that

1310
01:10:48,680 --> 01:10:53,240
Speaker 1: was my point where other coaches like that's where the

1311
01:10:53,320 --> 01:10:56,080
Speaker 1: knock on the defensive guys like Can Mike tomlin say the?

1312
01:10:56,120 --> 01:11:00,599
Speaker 1: Same Could Dan quinn say the? Same Could John harbaugh

1313
01:11:00,680 --> 01:11:03,120
Speaker 1: say the? Same John harbaugh was about to get fired

1314
01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:07,920
Speaker 1: until they bench flack one With lamar if someone else

1315
01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:10,040
Speaker 1: had Drafted Lamar, jackson because remember they took a guy

1316
01:11:10,479 --> 01:11:13,760
Speaker 1: ahead Of Lamar, Jackson Hayden, HURST i, think and they

1317
01:11:13,800 --> 01:11:17,479
Speaker 1: just drafted some random, Quarterback John harball would not be

1318
01:11:17,479 --> 01:11:20,719
Speaker 1: all the ravens. Now Lamar jackson Saved John harbaugh's raven.

1319
01:11:20,760 --> 01:11:24,719
Speaker 1: Career now he would have got another, job for. Sure

1320
01:11:24,800 --> 01:11:29,400
Speaker 1: but my point is that certain, coaches if they just

1321
01:11:29,479 --> 01:11:31,720
Speaker 1: had no quarterback in an, OFFSEASON i think they could

1322
01:11:31,720 --> 01:11:35,920
Speaker 1: figure it out and find just some credibility. There, now

1323
01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:40,080
Speaker 1: obviously the guy wouldn't be as good As, mahomes but

1324
01:11:41,120 --> 01:11:44,240
Speaker 1: and he's proven. It he's won games with all sorts

1325
01:11:44,240 --> 01:11:48,040
Speaker 1: of quarterbacks over the. Years that was my. Point and

1326
01:11:48,080 --> 01:11:49,880
Speaker 1: DO i Believe Josh allen's the best player in THE

1327
01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:53,920
Speaker 1: nfl in twenty twenty. FIVE i. Do, Obviously Patrick mahomes

1328
01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:56,280
Speaker 1: at times been the best. Player Lamar jackson's been the best.

1329
01:11:56,280 --> 01:12:00,000
Speaker 1: PLAYER i was thinking, like who was the best player

1330
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,760
Speaker 1: in THE nfl this year because there's been a lot of,

1331
01:12:02,840 --> 01:12:05,080
Speaker 1: arguments AND i don't really have a strong opinion on THE.

1332
01:12:05,160 --> 01:12:08,439
Speaker 1: MVP i don't really, care especially in a year like,

1333
01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:11,120
Speaker 1: this could you make the argument That pooka And akua

1334
01:12:11,360 --> 01:12:14,360
Speaker 1: was THE mvp the. LEAGUE i feel Like Pooka nakula

1335
01:12:15,120 --> 01:12:17,120
Speaker 1: was the best PLAYER i watched in THE nfl start to.

1336
01:12:17,160 --> 01:12:19,960
Speaker 1: Finish it feels Like stafford's gonna win. It Maybe drake.

1337
01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:22,519
Speaker 1: MAYWINS i don't, know BUT i feel like Pokin akua

1338
01:12:22,600 --> 01:12:24,200
Speaker 1: is THE mvp the. LEAGUE i feel like he's best

1339
01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:26,680
Speaker 1: player in the. LEAGUE i feel like this year he.

1340
01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:31,960
Speaker 1: Dominated it wasn't even a fair Fight Jackson. SMITH i

1341
01:12:31,960 --> 01:12:33,400
Speaker 1: mean there were times where we thought, like is this

1342
01:12:33,439 --> 01:12:35,680
Speaker 1: the best player in the. League that's the thing with THE,

1343
01:12:35,720 --> 01:12:37,639
Speaker 1: mvp it's like The. Heisman we don't even talk about

1344
01:12:37,680 --> 01:12:39,519
Speaker 1: Other it's got to be a. Quarterback just got to

1345
01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:42,160
Speaker 1: be a, quarterback which we all agree quarterback is the

1346
01:12:42,160 --> 01:12:47,439
Speaker 1: most important. Position BUT i don't, know can any other

1347
01:12:47,479 --> 01:12:51,320
Speaker 1: position win the? Award can any other position just be

1348
01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:53,840
Speaker 1: in the conversation to win the? Award why does no

1349
01:12:53,880 --> 01:12:55,920
Speaker 1: one even talk, about, like Could pucka win the? Award

1350
01:12:56,880 --> 01:12:59,559
Speaker 1: it doesn't even come. Up it's not even a. Conversation it's, like,

1351
01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:01,840
Speaker 1: oh it's just one of the. QUARTERBACKS i guess it

1352
01:13:01,880 --> 01:13:09,640
Speaker 1: is what it. Is the VOLUME m
