00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:08,160
Speaker 1: Welcome to NFL Daily, where we broke our new year's

2
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:12,400
Speaker 1: resolution on New Year's Eve. I'm Greg Rosenthal. I'm here

3
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: in the Chris Wesleyan podcast studio with my friends Jordan Rodrigue,

4
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:20,480
Speaker 1: The Athletic and Colleen Wolf. Hello, and yeah, I didn't

5
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:22,439
Speaker 1: have a plan for how I was opening that show

6
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,799
Speaker 1: until I was talking. And it's true. I got a

7
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: parking ticket this morning. And one of my New Year's

8
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: resolutions was to make it through an entire year without

9
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: getting a parking ticket for the first time in Los

10
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 1: Angeles possible. And I literally made it till this morning

11
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: and parked and didn't feed the meter while I was

12
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 1: getting a smooth because it was going to take like

13
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: six minutes, and somehow got that ticket in the six minutes.

14
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 2: They were waiting for you.

15
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,599
Speaker 3: You didn't feed the meter when this was your New

16
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 3: Year's resolution.

17
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: Well it's December by then you've forgotten about it, and

18
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: it's like, it's just one of those things. I was like,

19
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 1: I want to make it through one year. It wasn't

20
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: the only one year without getting a copious amounts of

21
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 1: like tickets and stuff like that, and it's gotten better

22
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 1: and then it happened, and I was like, this is

23
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:06,040
Speaker 1: too fu.

24
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 4: I love that you're giving up already.

25
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 1: No, it was last year, and I'm saying I made

26
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 1: it till now. I was so close.

27
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 2: It was my first thought too though. It was like,

28
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 2: as screwing, that's what I mean.

29
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 1: I was so close.

30
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:20,559
Speaker 4: Oh that's impressive.

31
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,919
Speaker 5: You would think that being that close, she would remember

32
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:24,279
Speaker 5: to feed the meter for six minutes.

33
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 2: But that's just my one one person right, No.

34
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: Because then you what happens in life is you you

35
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,320
Speaker 1: try to improve at certain things, and then you do,

36
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: and then you just get a little too comfortable in

37
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 1: yourself and you start going back to the bad habits

38
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: of like, eh, it's only a couple of minutes, you know,

39
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 1: what does it really matter. I'm going to be in

40
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 1: and out and way to go.

41
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 2: It mattered, turns out.

42
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: Welcome to our last see you next Tuesday, Yeah, yeah,

43
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, although we will see you next Tuesday,

44
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: uh huh. I believe Colleen will be here. She's she's

45
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: back after being home, and she's wearing a sparkly New

46
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: Year's Eve type of hoodie. I love it.

47
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 3: It's a sweatshirt that has seen Quinn's on it, so

48
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 3: I have to be casual and fancy at the same time.

49
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 2: She contains multitudes exactly.

50
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,200

00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:20,239
Speaker 5: next six months, so I won't see her.

57
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:22,000

Speaker 4: Yeah, Maddie's going.

59
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 2: I can't tell you.

60
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 4: Oh more interesting.

61
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 1: It's very like nineteen ninety sitcom, like the Twin Twin

62
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 1: sister and one of them's like this crazy secret marine

63
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 1: biologist whatever I don't even know, making secret missions. And

64
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: Colleen is back from from home. How are the Wolves?

65
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 4: They are great? Everyone is good.

66
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: How is Tim doing?

67
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 4: Tim is very good.

68
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 3: I spent two days with life family and developed a

69
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 3: case of rose.

70
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 4: Show.

71
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,519
Speaker 1: Okay, so okay, So this is it's going to be

72
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: a big show. It's a very festive show. We are

73
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: going to be doing New Year's Resolutions. Last week, Jordan

74
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: and I had reasons for Joy for the AFC, but

75
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 1: it felt like Resolutions was more thematic, So we will

76
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 1: do NFC. So that if you know, all the AFC

77
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 1: fans heard their teams talked about last week. We will

78
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 1: do NFC this week with New Year's resolutions, and then

79
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: we're gonna read some of the Christmas cards that are listeners,

80
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,799
Speaker 1: you guys, and then we're gonna get out of here

81
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: and go celebrate or do whatever you want to do.

82
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 1: Just just chill. Okay.

83
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 5: I actually teared up when you posted the pile of

84
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 5: Christmas cards. I know, I am, I'm a sappy fool,

85
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 5: I know, but it just was so nice, like and

86
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 5: you seared up.

87
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 3: I was like crying in the locker room, and I'm like,

88
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 3: I hope nobody walks in right now because we're going

89
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 3: to be like, what's going on with you?

90
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 4: Colleyen? Are you okay? I was just sitting there. The

91
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 4: show had ended.

92
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 3: I sat at my locker and cried reading these cards.

93
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 4: They were really, really nice.

94
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna need you to like save that emotion.

95
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: That was really good, but save it for the segment.

96
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 4: Well it's not fake, Greg, so no problem.

97
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: Bring it back and really lean in to it. We're

98
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: trying to get the family crowd here for the holiday season.

99
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: But yeah, we'll do resolutions first and we're going to

100
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: go through just quickly. Each team just kind of threw

101
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: out a quick resolution. We can comment on it. But

102
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: last last week it worked well. We did not have

103
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 1: a clock, but we just decided we're going to move

104
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: at a quick pace and if if Eric believes we're

105
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,840
Speaker 1: honking too much, he can play a little sound to

106
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: just sort.

107
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 5: Of serve us a lot every week.

108
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: And so we've assigned all the all the teams out

109
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 1: and Colleen, you got an extra one though, yeah, I

110
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 1: know that was your extra present. I had to decide, well,

111
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: she be offended if she has one less, or offended

112
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 1: if she has one more. I went with one more

113
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: because you missed last week, so you have catching up.

114
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 4: Figured I figured that was the reasonings.

115
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: And you're gonna you're gonna start with the Eagles. I

116
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 1: give you an easy one.

117
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 4: Oh wow, all right, so here we go.

118
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 3: My resolution is I'd like to show more patience and

119
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 3: kindness towards Nick Sirianni. Oh, you know, there are plenty

120
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,359
Speaker 3: of things that I'm just like, why what are we

121
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 3: doing here?

122
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 4: What is happening? The whole thing with zach Ertz, Like

123
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 4: I guess like there was a.

124
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 3: High five that was too much, and then comments were

125
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,480
Speaker 3: exchanged after the Eagles and Commanders game, so they need

126
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 3: to be pulled apart. And then taunting your own fans

127
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 3: after winning against one of the worst teams in the

128
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 3: NFL by four points, wearing the beat Dallas shirt that

129
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 3: wasn't great, being criticized for bringing his kids to the

130
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 3: postgame press conference to be used as shields. So you know,

131
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 3: there's plenty of things that we could talk about that

132
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 3: are kind of annoying here and there. It feels like

133
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 3: a little immature and petty some of the things that

134
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 3: he does. But I had this realization and I was like,

135
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 3: you know, the things you hate in others are the

136
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 3: things you hate in yourself. And I'm petty, and I'm immature,

137
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,919
Speaker 3: and i have no filter, thank god I do in

138
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 3: front of a mic, but I'm always ready to throw

139
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 3: down as well, especially if someone is going after my

140
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 3: friends and family.

141
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,279
Speaker 4: Only I'm allowed to do that, Okay.

142
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 3: So what I'm saying is like, you know, Nick Sirianni,

143
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 3: deep down, maybe I am him, and I'm gonna I'm

144
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,679
Speaker 3: gonna stop with this mirror right now and look past

145
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 3: the mirror and look at his achievements and what he's

146
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 3: done with this.

147
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 4: Team and the success that he's had.

148
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 3: Listen, he has the highest winning percentage of any head

149
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,919
Speaker 3: coach in Eagles history, the sixth highest win percentage of

150
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 3: any head coach period with at least fifty games coach

151
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 3: in the NFL forty seven wins through his first sixty

152
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 3: seven games as a head coach. Only three coaches in

153
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 3: the Super Bowl era I did some research on this

154
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 3: have more wins, and that's George Seaffert, Chuck Knox and

155
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 3: Matt Lafleur.

156
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 1: Oh wow, she got the hard right off the bat.

157
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 4: All right, that's it. That's it.

158
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: Oh.

159
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 4: I also resigned Zac Bond.

160
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 2: Yes, I love what you said at the beginning.

161
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 5: The comments were exchanged, and I just thought, can we

162
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 5: now refer to him as Nick? Comments were exchange.

163
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: You know what, there is something about him I think

164
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,039
Speaker 1: that just rubs people the wrong way. I don't think

165
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: that you have that in common with him. But a

166
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 1: good point about the accomplishments. He is forty seven and

167
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:06,039
Speaker 1: twenty as a head coach and has made the playoffs

168
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: every time? Is that right? And went to the Super Bowl?

169
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: Like just saying Kevin O'Connell and Matt Lafleur and all these.

170
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 4: It wasn't me.

171
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: It's good fight, good point, all right. Next to the

172
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 1: commander Jordan.

173
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 5: I love this, okay, Washington Commanders, I'm speaking from the

174
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 5: perspective of somebody else. Well, it's a new year and

175
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 5: I'm feeling the love. My team has completely flipped the

176
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 5: narrative from its toxic, haunted house vibe of the last era.

177
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 5: We even saged the place and fumigated the old owner's office.

178
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 5: I nailed the coaching and general manager hires. See Ben,

179
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 5: we don't need you after all. My franchise found its

180
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 5: quarterback of the future, and I even got Cliff to

181
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 5: start wearing socks.

182
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 2: My home crowd was chanting my name, Josh Hairris.

183
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 5: On my team's way to its eleventh win, our first

184
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 5: double win season since that wonder boy and his WonderBoy

185
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 5: staff and RG three grace the halls in twenty twenty twelve.

186
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 5: This is owning an NFL team. This is so much fun.

187
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 5: I resolve not to ruin it. Adam Peters Cook, dan

188
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 5: Quinn Cook, I'll just stand in the back, enjoy it

189
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 5: all and throw money at you when you need it.

190
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: Oh, I thought you were gonna say, I'm gonna stand

191
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: back and not ruin it like I am with the

192
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: seventy six ers.

193
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 3: Li said, I have some feelings about Josh.

194
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 4: Harris right in general, he's a turncoat.

195
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: That it's all great point, Like you think about where

196
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 1: they were, and not just as a franchise with Dan Snyder,

197
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: but even just getting turned down by Ben Johnson and

198
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,079
Speaker 1: everyone's making fun of Cliff and wait, is the socks

199
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: like a real thing? What is that?

200
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 5: It just bothers me every time I see a photo

201
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 5: of him on the sideline or like in his house,

202
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 5: his really fancy Cardinals meme house. He just doesn't look

203
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 5: like he's wearing socks, and I'm like, aren't you cold?

204
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 2: He does the no shows, aren't you cold?

205
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 5: It's like a young offensive coach thing. None of them

206
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 5: are very good at their socks.

207
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 1: But he is very good at bringing out the best

208
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: in Gene Daniel. Like this second half of that game,

209
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,960
Speaker 1: you think they were so creative, he's beating all of

210
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 1: the allegations. All right, I'm gonna go with the cowboys here.

211
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 1: And I wasn't nearly as creative as you guys with

212
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 1: these resolutions. I kept it simple, and my resolution for

213
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: them is, let's just trade Michaeh Parsons for at least

214
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: two first round picks. Now, I'm talking selfishly from my perspective,

215
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: it'd be great content. I think it would be an

216
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: exciting part of the off season that it's not just them,

217
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 1: kind of like showing a little leg here. Ooh, Michael

218
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: Parsons might be available and they end up keeping them. No,

219
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: let's actually trade them. You shouldn't be trading the best

220
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: pure pass thresher that I've seen come into the league

221
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: in the last twenty years. But if a team was

222
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 1: going to they are maybe that team. They're really good

223
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: at draft picks. They do have a lot of huge

224
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 1: salaries that are already on the books, and like if

225
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: Khalil matt can get to first and a third with

226
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: a second coming back, I actually think Michael Parsons could

227
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,680
Speaker 1: get a couple first and it would be great content.

228
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: February March, Yeah, let's do it.

229
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 5: Cowboys are all about that content. They are, right, Greg,

230
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 5: They got hooks into you early. They want you to

231
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 5: talk about them.

232
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: Well, I think it's a realistic because he's kind of

233
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: known as a little bit of a high maintenance guy

234
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 1: behind the scenes.

235
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 3: After that Bengals game, like watching him walk off the field.

236
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 3: I think it was that game. Yes, I mean I

237
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 3: kind of felt like really awful for him. It's like

238
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 3: I kind of want to get him out of.

239
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: There right, and he's not really the type of person

240
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 1: you should be trying to trade. But that's I'm fine.

241
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 1: If the Cowboys make a big mistake.

242
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 2: What do you want to see, go get him.

243
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 1: That's for another show, Colleen. You have the Giants.

244
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 3: I have the Giants, and personally I think the Giants

245
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 3: are doing everything right.

246
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 4: No notes at this point.

247
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 1: That is why I gave the Giants the Colleen.

248
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 4: Or run it back with Ben McAdoo.

249
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 1: Okay, bring him back, that's.

250
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,239
Speaker 3: An option, but I think, you know, getting a quarterback,

251
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 3: they should do that, you know, leave whatever offering to

252
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 3: any deities that they need to make things right with

253
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 3: the universe.

254
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 4: That could be another resolution for them.

255
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 3: But obviously Saquon Barkley and Daniel Jones these were massive

256
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 3: mistakes and then having hard knocks there for like all

257
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 3: to document and hear the fallout from that that can

258
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:17,839
Speaker 3: now just be replayed.

259
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 4: Over and over.

260
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, but they did get Malik Neighbors, so that's

261
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 3: a positive. So things could be trending in the right direction,

262
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 3: but considering their week seventeen win moved them down from

263
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 3: number one in the draft to number four in the draft.

264
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 3: That's right outside Shadora Sanders cam Ward and Travis Hunter territory.

265
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,439
Speaker 4: Not really sure what they're gonna do. Maybe they go.

266
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 3: After one of the quarterbacks that doesn't stay in Minnesota.

267
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 3: Whether it's a JJ McCarthy or Sam Darnold, I don't know,

268
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 3: But honestly, I think they're doing just fine.

269
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: And you're kind of in a win win situation as

270
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,079
Speaker 1: an Egos fan this week, like, maybe have the backups

271
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: loose to them and make their draft pick even worse.

272
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: You should have just left it as you're doing great.

273
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 1: Don't tell you, just end it right there. All right,

274
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: Lions and Jordan.

275
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 2: I've got the Lions.

276
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 5: In twenty twenty five, we the Detroit Lions resolved to

277
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 5: stay fun. Big changes our heead we might lose our

278
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 5: mad scientist offensive coordinator Ben Johnson to a head coaching opportunity.

279
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 5: We're in the process of sneaking out one page of

280
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 5: his ideas notebook at a time, photo copying it, and

281
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 5: then reattaching it before he notices that anything is wrong

282
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 5: or missing, and brilliant defensive coordinator Ang Glenn is also

283
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 5: going to be a top candidate this job cycle too.

284
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 5: Those guys would be so hard to replace. Refilling coordinator

285
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 5: jobs after a deep postseason run is tough as it is,

286
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 5: but we know what we're about. We're fully alive, an

287
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 5: electric guitar power chord of a team with few energy,

288
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 5: but like in an enthusiastic way. On offense, we play

289
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,439
Speaker 5: with our food. We're smarter and stronger than you. On defense,

290
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 5: we hit hard and we take no pity for our injuries.

291
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 5: We're the goddamn Detroit Lions. We're gonna stay fun no

292
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 5: matter what.

293
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 1: I love that a lot.

294
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 2: I would you please stay.

295
00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 1: It could happen. Although hold that thought. I can't remember

296
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: a team and you tell me if you can think

297
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 1: of one that had more support nationally from fans that

298
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: were not their own fans than this Lions team that

299
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: we've sort of seen grow up and like everyone is

300
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: rooting for it, Like I'm genuinely worried about their situation,

301
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,679
Speaker 1: and I'm like not a Lions fan. They America, I

302
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,719
Speaker 1: really think they are right now, Yeah, I'm going to

303
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: go with the Bears, So sorry, Jordan. Our resolution was

304
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 1: to go, yeah, get Ben Johnson. I think I think

305
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 1: it makes sense. No, I just think I had my doubts.

306
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: Just make it happen. I had my doubts that he

307
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,679
Speaker 1: even wants to be a head coach, which I would

308
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 1: totally respect if he didn't want to, or if you

309
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 1: just wanted to wait for a long time. But Tom

310
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: Pallisero was doing the coaching rumor slash reporting buzz type

311
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: of story on Good Morning Football, and the way he

312
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: put it, Ben Johnson sounds interested in the Chicago Bears job,

313
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,439
Speaker 1: specifically because of Caleb Williams, which makes a lot of sense,

314
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 1: and because of the resources and the picks and all

315
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 1: sorts of things going on there, and so that really

316
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: really made me think that this could happen as long

317
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: as the Bears want it to happen. It sounds to

318
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: me like this is the team he's been waiting for

319
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 1: a team and this is going to be that team.

320
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: And what a crazy division that would be to compete in.

321
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: But make it happen. If the best offensive mine one

322
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: of them certainly in the game, wants to coach your team,

323
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: just make it happen.

324
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 5: The Bears are so far behind these other coaches in

325
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 5: terms of securing like that dude for the future. Right,

326
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 5: They're already so multiple years behind on this process. So

327
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 5: bringing someone in, taking a huge swing at someone high caliber,

328
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 5: whether it is signing Ben Johnson or trying to trade

329
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 5: for somebody like that, is absolutely what they need to

330
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 5: be thinking about.

331
00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 2: Is the biggest swing possible here.

332
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 3: Can you imagine Ben Johnson coming in and turning around

333
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 3: the Bears because they have the talent there, the division

334
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 3: would just be such a powerhouse.

335
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 1: I love that storyline wise, that there's just this division

336
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 1: where there's all these like great offensive coaches. But I

337
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: kind of worry about it for Ben Johnson, fair just

338
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 1: because the Bears seem to ruin everything and I don't

339
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: want them to ruin Ben Johnson. All right, Packers, your up.

340
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 3: Come learn how to beat the best NFC teams in

341
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 3: general in January. But in the postseason overall, Packers are

342
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 3: zero and five this year against the Lions, Vikings, and Eagles,

343
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 3: eleven and zero against everybody else, and three of those

344
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 3: five losses they've been by three or fewer points, so

345
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 3: they've come really close in these games, but they're just

346
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 3: like they're on the precipice right now and they just

347
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 3: need to get over the hump.

348
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 4: They're going to have to go through these teams too.

349
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 3: As a wild card, and currently as the seventh seed,

350
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 3: they would go on the road and face the Eagles,

351
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 3: so they need to kind of figure out what to

352
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 3: do here. They faced the Eagles in the first game

353
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 3: of the season for them and saw what happened with

354
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 3: Jordan Love. So now that they have Jordan Love and

355
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 3: he's healthy and he's dealing.

356
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 4: I don't know.

357
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 1: Hazel's probably hate that matchup for the Eagles and the Packers.

358
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 4: I do too. I don't love it.

359
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 1: I just worry.

360
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 4: I would love for them to not be the seventh seed.

361
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break. We're going to

362
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: come back and we'll do more of our New Year's

363
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: resolutions for the NFC South and the NFC List back

364
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 1: on NFL Daily. It's all been leading to this, every

365
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: show is it's been leading to December thirty first and

366
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 1: Colleen reading those cards. It's gonna be the capstone. I

367
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: can't wait of our NFL Daily season. All right, Jordan,

368
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 1: you have the Saints.

369
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 2: It's a short one.

370
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 5: Both a personal resolution and a PSA for me to

371
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 5: me and for me to you, wait at least four

372
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 5: games before getting excited about the Saints in twenty twenty five.

373
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: Ohchr.

374
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 5: Remember September when the Saints averaged forty four and a

375
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 5: half points over their first two games. Yeah, then sixteen

376
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 5: points per game over the next fourteen games.

377
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,440
Speaker 4: Klint Kubiak, everybody, the co league average.

378
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 5: In twenty twenty four is just over twenty two points

379
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 5: per game. Let's just sit back on the Saints this time.

380
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: That's fair. They're going to become that team now. Every

381
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,640
Speaker 1: year when someone looks really crazy good surprisingly after being

382
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 1: two and o, everyone's gonna be like, remember remember the

383
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 1: Saints with Derek carr.

384
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 2: Is Like, oh yeah, that was that.

385
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 1: You don't want to be one of those teams. You

386
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 1: know who's one of those teams for me is the five?

387
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: And oh Sam Bradford Minnesota Vikings, who or the Around

388
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: the NFL podcast fell in love with and made the

389
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 1: team of Around the NFL And then they didn't win

390
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: another game, and then.

391
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,120
Speaker 5: Everyone was so gun shy about actually crowning a team

392
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 5: of the ATMs after that.

393
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: It's true, the Saints were kind of that team. I

394
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: feel bad because, yeah, I had our friends from the

395
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: Saints Black Party podcasts on after they were two and

396
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 1: oh after that it just fell apart. Okay, I one

397
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,199
Speaker 1: thing I do want to be better at is just

398
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 1: staying organized and paying attention to details, going uh, it's

399
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 1: not perfect because I actually have the Vikings next. Oh,

400
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 1: I thought we were done with the NFC North for

401
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 1: some reason, that the teams are out of order here,

402
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 1: and so I.

403
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 3: Forgot the Vikings one year at the draft when we

404
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 3: were doing like shout outs, we had like a role

405
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 3: call for each division, and I just completely forgot about

406
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 3: the Vikings too, the whole nine.

407
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:20,120
Speaker 2: That's the thing.

408
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,159
Speaker 5: Like they were talking about it on the broadcast this

409
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 5: weekend and Kevin O'Connell. I'm knowing Kevin a little bit

410
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,159
Speaker 5: like he for sure has that chip on his shoulder,

411
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 5: like what a like, why are what about us?

412
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,880
Speaker 1: They are? This is this is the one about us

413
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: week for the Vikings, although it's going to quickly turn

414
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: into everyone's picking the Vikings to beat the Lions this week,

415
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 1: so they're gonna have to handle that. And so now

416
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 1: that they're becoming one of the favorites, maybe the favorites

417
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 1: since they they're the number one seed. If they win

418
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: this game, I'm just gonna say, just enjoy this journey. Here,

419
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,560
Speaker 1: Vikings fans and the team, this is a special team.

420
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 1: A Refasan wrote a good piece about it this week

421
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 1: on his substack, and he's a Vikings guy and kind

422
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 1: of telling all the fans to embrace, enjoy it, don't

423
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 1: be worried about the other shoe coming to drop. The

424
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 1: problem is, I want everyone to appreciate the journey and realize,

425
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 1: like it's okay if it doesn't end in New Orleans.

426
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,159
Speaker 1: You know, if there are three really great teams in

427
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,240
Speaker 1: the NFC, I think if you listen to one of

428
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: the other ones, you can be pretty disappointed. But if

429
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,359
Speaker 1: like the Eagles go to the super Bowl, where the

430
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,879
Speaker 1: Lions go to thee like it happens in sports, and

431
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 1: this has been a magical journey that hopefully you have

432
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 1: been appreciating, like the whole time watching them just play

433
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 1: this well, play so smart, with so many great players,

434
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: and they're not going anywhere, Like, just appreciate it, even

435
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 1: if it doesn't end in New Orleans.

436
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 4: Sam Darnold, you know, he's been my guy all season long.

437
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 1: You. You didn't.

438
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 5: I feel like, so, if I'm recalling correctly, you touched

439
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,960
Speaker 5: down back from Summer of Connie, uh huh and the

440
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,159
Speaker 5: very next show I remember, can we talked about it?

441
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 5: The very next show you did? You were like the

442
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,239
Speaker 5: Vikings guys. Yeah, and you were all in and you

443
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 5: were right and you stayed right.

444
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 2: That's a thing I was like.

445
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 3: But going into the season, I couldn't understand why no

446
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 3: one else was looking at the Vikings as a team

447
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 3: that's going to be good, because, come on, like they

448
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 3: had Greg's voice in their ear.

449
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 1: You're you're a seer. All right, let's go out to

450
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 1: the Panthers.

451
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 3: The Panthers, Okay, here we go. Hold on, goud turp

452
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 3: my computer back on? All right, Panthers provide Bryce Young

453
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,680
Speaker 3: with some patience and stability for twenty twenty five. Look,

454
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 3: things are looking up for Bryce Young. He's been playing better.

455
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,640
Speaker 3: He's had a one hundred plus passer rating in each

456
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,639
Speaker 3: of his last two games. He only had two in

457
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 3: his first twenty five starts. We can see it just watching.

458
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 3: He looks better, he looks more comfortable. Keep Dave Canalis,

459
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 3: why don't we curb the coach firing? Just for a year,

460
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 3: see how that turns out.

461
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 4: Maybe.

462
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 3: Listen, I feel like a lot of the great franchises

463
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,359
Speaker 3: they have patients, and we know that the Panthers do not.

464
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 4: But the benching of Bryce.

465
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 3: Young earlier in this year, maybe it did actually work

466
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 3: for him because he came back and slowly we've seen

467
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 3: those improvements and they have this young offensive cores with

468
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 3: Chewba Hubbard, with Adam Well. Adam Thelands is not like Young,

469
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 3: but they have a good exavier look at. I mean,

470
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 3: they have some pieces that are all coming back in

471
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five and they're gonna have a top pick too.

472
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 3: Right now, they're slotted to be six overall, so they

473
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 3: can add and I mean the rush. Their run defense

474
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 3: is terrible, so they could probably use something on defense.

475
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 3: But also it's like just keep building around Bryce Young.

476
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, they need a pass rusher.

477
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 5: Derek Brown should be back next year, which will would help,

478
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 5: but he was once he left their defense, they just

479
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 5: became a sieve crumbled. I think that one thing that

480
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 5: I think Dave Canalis has an advantage in coming into

481
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 5: this year is he hired a lot of like relatively

482
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 5: unknown assistants as well, so he'll be able to keep continuity.

483
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 5: Lack of continuity compounds failure and failing franchises in this league,

484
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:53,439
Speaker 5: especially rush to rush to judgment firings, and continued continuity

485
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 5: actually helps, which was kind of redundant to me saying it,

486
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 5: but it actually really does help set this foundation that

487
00:21:57,960 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 5: they badly need.

488
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,200
Speaker 1: Well, then they should keep a Zuero too, something to watch.

489
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if he'll stay there or not as

490
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator. All right, Jordan, you have the Cardinals.

491
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 1: Once again, me not really being on my details. We're

492
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 1: just going all over division wise. Okay, Oh my god.

493
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 5: In twenty twenty five, we the Arizona Cardinals resolved to

494
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 5: develop a clutch gene. Sure, we need better players on defense,

495
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,360
Speaker 5: and we have to have a really big conversation about

496
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 5: the quarterback, at least according to the media chatter on

497
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 5: the ground in Phoenix.

498
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 2: But mediocrity can't be our ceiling anymore.

499
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 5: I mean, we fizzled out in a wide open NFC

500
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,120
Speaker 5: West in a forty nine ers down year. For God's sake,

501
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 5: we have big ideas offensively and big players except for

502
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 5: the quarterback.

503
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 2: We're ascending defensively.

504
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 5: The epitome of our unclutchness was our shot at playing

505
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 5: spoiler and antagonizing our NFC West big Brothers literally bounced

506
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 5: away off the helmet of our best player, who's one

507
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 5: of the best players.

508
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 2: In the league.

509
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 5: That's how not clutch we are in twenty twenty five.

510
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 5: We need to become clutch.

511
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:57,919
Speaker 1: It's a good call, and they've had some nice continuity.

512
00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,679
Speaker 1: Now they're going to be building. It's that ever important

513
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 1: kind of third year with the same regime. But they

514
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,720
Speaker 1: have done it in the way that you want to

515
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: do it. They took over maybe the worst team talent

516
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,359
Speaker 1: wise in the NFL. You played above your talent the

517
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 1: first year whatever, four or five wins, but actually kind

518
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 1: of look fun doing it. Now you went up to seven.

519
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 1: It's another three win jump. The hard part's doing the

520
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 1: next part. Yeah, it's got to be a little more clutch.

521
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 4: I like that second half.

522
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 3: I just feel like they collapse a lot in the

523
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 3: second clutch too, like just in general.

524
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, not clutch, all right, got to figure that out.

525
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,160
Speaker 1: I am going to go to the Atlanta Falcons, whose

526
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 1: season I've never felt like a team season feels more

527
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 1: over when it's totally not over. But when the Bucks

528
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 1: playing the Saints this week. It just feels like the

529
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,639
Speaker 1: Falcon season is over. So I'm looking to the offseason

530
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: and it's just get younger on defense. This is a

531
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 1: more block and tackle type of resolution. But the worst

532
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 1: thing to be is old and bad and kind of expensive,

533
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 1: and that's what the Falcons are. This was supposed to

534
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: be a win now type of roster.

535
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:54,360
Speaker 2: People put it on dating profiles too.

536
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, and not old, bad and expensive.

537
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,880
Speaker 1: On offense, They're not that old. Some of the offensive

538
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 1: line is, but overall it's not old on offense. But

539
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 1: their starting defensive line was Grady Jared Eddie, Golden, David

540
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: An Yamada, and Matthew jud And who were all over thirty,

541
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: some of whom are pretty expensive. In the secondary, like

542
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 1: Jesse Bates is still their best player, but he's getting

543
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 1: up there. Justin Simmons that was like a one year

544
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,439
Speaker 1: older guy. And so they just need to get a

545
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,920
Speaker 1: lot younger and a lot more talented on defense. And

546
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 1: yes for him, Morris, the know how to use touchdown.

547
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 5: That's the two word phrase of the season for a

548
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 5: lot of teams.

549
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's funny though.

550
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 1: Playing Michael Pennix these last three weeks is gonna save

551
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 1: the vibes. It is funny how good a move that is,

552
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 1: because now just the fact that he played and you

553
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: saw that he's good is like, Okay, this season wasn't

554
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: a waste. We're going to be good in the future.

555
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 4: You made some incredible throws in that game. That was

556
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 4: such a fun one.

557
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 1: That was one of the best. All Right, you got rams,

558
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:53,879
Speaker 1: Rams wrapping it up here.

559
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 3: All Right, I'm gon show up before the bye week

560
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 3: next season.

561
00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:01,680
Speaker 4: How about we try that on now? Back to back years.

562
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:02,360
Speaker 4: They've done this.

563
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 3: This year before the bye they lost to the Bears

564
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:06,360
Speaker 3: and the Cardinals.

565
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,680
Speaker 4: What are we doing here? I understand a division game,

566
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 4: but really like the Bears, this is a theme.

567
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: It's also by like thirty points to the Gardinals or something.

568
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I mean ultimately it didn't end up mattering

569
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,640
Speaker 3: because they're in the playoffs and they won the division.

570
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 3: But with a better faster start at this point, they

571
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,879
Speaker 3: could be competing for a two seed. They could maybe

572
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,359
Speaker 3: have another game or two at home. So they just

573
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 3: need to figure out a way to not stumble out

574
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:31,640
Speaker 3: of the gate.

575
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 5: I think to that point as well, the the monumental

576
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 5: effort of climbing out of a one and four hole

577
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,880
Speaker 5: with an eleven percent chance of making the postseason at

578
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,879
Speaker 5: that time. That's that takes a strain, That puts a

579
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 5: strain on a group. And yes, the vibes are good.

580
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 5: It's a great locker room. It's a bunch of great

581
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 5: young players and then some very very savvy old dudes

582
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 5: who can still roll when they're feeling good. But it's

583
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 5: just so much, it takes so much out of you

584
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,439
Speaker 5: that you really wonder what juice do they really have

585
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,639
Speaker 5: the postseason because of how significant that strain of just

586
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 5: like climbing rung over rung, like out of the pit.

587
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 3: It kind of you know, it reminds me of like

588
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 3: how I prepare for shows, like I know good is

589
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 3: coming and then like I just procrastinate until the very

590
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,439
Speaker 3: last minute, and then I will cram eighteen hours of

591
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,360
Speaker 3: work into like two hours.

592
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 4: See, I don't need to do that.

593
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,919
Speaker 1: I was thinking if they were like a living embodiment

594
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,719
Speaker 1: of a person or a story. It's it's like Matthew

595
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:34,439
Speaker 1: Stafford or some of these older quarterbacks who say, like,

596
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: as you're getting older, you know in the league, the

597
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:38,639
Speaker 1: day after the game, it takes you a little while

598
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 1: to get to the bathroom in the morning, you're walking

599
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 1: slow to you know, getting out of bed and getting

600
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 1: to the bath Like that is them as a team

601
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the season, at the beginning of

602
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 1: every game they stink in the like it takes them

603
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 1: like twenty minutes of every game to cause it's kind

604
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 1: of like knock the old bones out or whatever has

605
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:55,879
Speaker 1: happening or.

606
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,679
Speaker 5: Watching on YouTube. I really hope we got a shimmy

607
00:26:58,720 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 5: from Grey.

608
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:04,200
Speaker 1: Let's go Rams, Colleen, I have it.

609
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 2: We grow off, we throw off, we did it.

610
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:07,440
Speaker 4: Do another shit.

611
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 2: Happy New Year to me and you colleagues.

612
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 1: Forty nine ers, Jordan, Okay.

613
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 5: My resolution more so. Advice for twenty twenty five for

614
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:19,680
Speaker 5: the San Francisco forty nine ers rest, sleep, in, practice,

615
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 5: a little self care for God's sake. Kyle Shanahan eats something,

616
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 5: then phone up Jerry Jones and ask to borrow's copy

617
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:27,879
Speaker 5: of How to Stay Unbothered while your quarterbacks and pending

618
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 5: contract is in the news every single day.

619
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:31,680
Speaker 2: Deep postseason runs.

620
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 5: And their two Super Bowl appearances in recent history, both losses.

621
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 2: It takes a toll.

622
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 5: Deep postseason runs and recovering from those runs. Burnout maintaining

623
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 5: a coaching staff that's getting hired out of losing coordinators,

624
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 5: making decisions for veteran players, making roster decisions for a

625
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 5: team that is getting older. All of this takes a toll,

626
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 5: especially in the Mahomes era of football. So my resolution

627
00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,640
Speaker 5: for the forty nine ers is just get as much

628
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 5: rest as you can now that your runways nice and long.

629
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,120
Speaker 1: I think that's super helpful for them. I think they've

630
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 1: faced all the problems of a dynasty in terms of

631
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 1: like winning super Bowls without any of the fun of it,

632
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:14,959
Speaker 1: like the money, the selfishness, the just the wear and

633
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: tear on your body. Except instead of having the you know,

634
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:21,119
Speaker 1: the super Bowl ring, you have these crushing disappointments. So

635
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: it's like it's a tough combo. I'm with you. I

636
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:24,399
Speaker 1: think the rest could really help them. It's good they

637
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 1: didn't make them.

638
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 4: Treat yourself, go on a vacation, just do what you

639
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 4: need to do to get right.

640
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,159
Speaker 5: It's what makes Andy Reid all the more impressive to

641
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,439
Speaker 5: me as a slight aside, because I saw up close,

642
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 5: like what happened.

643
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 2: Even when you win the.

644
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 5: Super Bowl and you just completely crash out mentally the

645
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 5: next year. Like, imagine doing that over and over and

646
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 5: over and over again, win or lose. That's what these

647
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 5: two teams and niners in the Chiefs have been doing.

648
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 5: That's what I really think subtenly happened to the Eagles

649
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 5: a couple of years ago.

650
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 2: It is a full on body crash.

651
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 5: You don't know why it's happening to you, but it's happening.

652
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 1: And yeah, keep growing that out, Kyle, you know, be

653
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 1: the be the over forty guy like like me, who's like, oh,

654
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 1: let's it's let's grow it out before it's too late.

655
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 3: They showed like a tight shot of him the other

656
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 3: day on the sideline and I was like, oh my god.

657
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 3: I mean, I've been watching these games, but like I

658
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 3: guess I haven't been like really keyed in on like

659
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 3: Kyle Shanahan and and what he what's going on with him?

660
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 1: Is?

661
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 4: Is he okay? Do we know he.

662
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 1: Has like a haunt off season? It's like a haunted

663
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: vibe to him. I know, I'm worried and just put

664
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 1: his freaking dad in the Hall of Fame. By the way,

665
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 1: it's like Mike Homegrin, we get it. But we were

666
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 1: all there, Mike.

667
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 2: So much fun back there.

668
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 1: Buck's easy. This one's awkward. Don't let Liam Cohen leave.

669
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 1: You could do two things. You're an ownership group that's

670
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: rich enough to you know, I've invested in Premier League

671
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: teams and and you're billionaires. So just pay an outrageous

672
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 1: amount to just keep Liam Cohen as an offensive coordinator.

673
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 1: If if that's not an op, you have to think

674
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 1: about a really difficult one, which would be pushing him

675
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,240
Speaker 1: to be the head coach. But I think it's really

676
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: important to not let him leave because he might be

677
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,959
Speaker 1: the one offensive mine in the entire league, including Ben Johnson,

678
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 1: that I think could create the most with the least

679
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 1: because we've seen it. Like, so, I just don't let

680
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 1: that guy get out of the building. I'm encroaching on

681
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 1: our friend Dave Damashek's territory where he thinks like an

682
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 1: offensive play caller is worth more, maybe than a quarterback.

683
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's true, but it's close enough

684
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: that you I don't think you can let Liam Cohen leave.

685
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 5: You got to throw what we and the biz call

686
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 5: the Ben Johnson bag at him, like you got to

687
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 5: throw the pile of money that they paid Ben Johnson

688
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 5: to not leave.

689
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 2: Phrasing was regrettable.

690
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 4: I heard it.

691
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 2: We all heard it.

692
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 5: We just want to make sure Liam Cohen gets that

693
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 5: amount of money and gets stays intact in Tampa Bay.

694
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 5: Now I can't focus at all, but take care.

695
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 1: When when was the phrasing uncomfortable?

696
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 2: Well, skim right past it.

697
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,040
Speaker 4: Oh no, I must find out now.

698
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 5: I overthought it to my detriment, right and let us

699
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 5: know if you last one, last one before the need.

700
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 1: Let's wrap it up with the Seahawks.

701
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, I'm trying to google the other thing

702
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 4: right now.

703
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 3: Okay Seahawks Google, Let's leave the land of mediocrity. Okay,

704
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 3: because four straight years they have ended between seven and

705
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 3: nine wins, so they're not good.

706
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 4: Enough for a high draft pick.

707
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 3: But they're like not in the playoffs either, so they

708
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 3: just are like stuck in this limbo and it's like

709
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 3: football purgatory a little bit, like what what are we

710
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 3: doing here? They need to I mean when you look

711
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 3: at them, actually we're just talking about the Falcons, and

712
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 3: they are a lot like the Falcons, because the Falcons

713
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 3: have done that too. I think the two of them

714
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 3: are tied for the longest streak of finishing with between

715
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 3: seven and nine wins, So it just feels like they

716
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 3: need to either are they going to do a full rebuild.

717
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 3: I know they brought in a new coaching staff, but like,

718
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 3: what are we doing here? Are we going to build

719
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 3: around Gino? Are we gonna not have Gino? Are we

720
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 3: gonna essentially get off the pot? Like they need to

721
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 3: make a decision one way or the other. What they're doing.

722
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 1: I hear you, But I think it's perspective. Don't let

723
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 1: the Pete Carroll years infect What is a new coaching staff?

724
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Like, first of all, they

725
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: they could land over nine wins, they could get to ten.

726
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 1: Everyone's acting like how did you let the Rams like

727
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 1: win this division? It's on some ka kamimi fifth tiebreaker.

728
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 1: If they win on Sunday, they're gonna go ten and seven.

729
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,959
Speaker 1: They had an over underwin total of seven and a half.

730
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 1: They're gonna tie the Rams in you know, record conference record,

731
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 1: division record, common opponents, and it goes to this crazy thing.

732
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 2: So it's not like very Seahawks way to miss the playoffs.

733
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 1: Right, I totally get that. And then absolutely my thing

734
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 1: is I think they did start to build something on

735
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 1: the defensive side this year. Everything you're saying is absolutely

736
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 1: true about the offense, that it's in this bad stasis

737
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: right now. But for a first year head coach, I

738
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 1: feel like the disappointment locally because I listen to uh

739
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:03,080
Speaker 1: your I listened to that podcast, and there they really

740
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 1: think it's such a disappointment, like how this season has gone.

741
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 1: Because if you're gonna fire Pete Carroll, it's got to

742
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 1: get better. And I think that's a tough way to

743
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 1: evaluate a new head coach.

744
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 5: I think the reason they say that is because they

745
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 5: have to endure watching this offensive line.

746
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 1: Okay, you know it's the Seahawks. It's one of the

747
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 1: very unofficial teams of the podcast, but yeah, for you,

748
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,720
Speaker 1: they could get yes, yes, well.

749
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 5: Week Quarterback Island, Oh my god, yay, Yes, we got

750
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 5: to do a regular season recap of Quarterback Island.

751
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 1: And it's not looking great. For my guy, Gina, he's

752
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 1: made it. He's made it this far. That's an achievement

753
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 1: in itself, but I'll just be real, it's not looking great.

754
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: But your decision not to put Matthew Stafford on the end,

755
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 1: which you took a lot of grief for after that

756
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 1: Bills game. It's looking just fine now. I mean the

757
00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 1: last time they, you know, scored like two touchdowns in again,

758
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 1: was a month ago, all right, I don't know if

759
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 1: that's true. They did score twice against.

760
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 2: The Jay, it will have been last year by the

761
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 2: next time they play.

762
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 1: Let's break out those Christmas cards. Let's play some festive music.

763
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 1: We've talked enough football on NFL Daily twenty twenty four,

764
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 1: and so do you want to set this up to,

765
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 1: you know, for listeners that maybe weren't with us a

766
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:20,279
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago.

767
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 3: I don't even remember how this came up, but I

768
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 3: was saying that I hadn't gotten any Christmas cards yet.

769
00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 3: And Christmas cards are like my favorite thing of the

770
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:29,720
Speaker 3: holiday season.

771
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 4: I love to get them. I hang them on my

772
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,360
Speaker 4: door or if I have a fireplace, over the fireplace.

773
00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 4: It's a whole thing.

774
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 3: And I was just like waiting and going to the

775
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 3: mailbox every day.

776
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 4: So tragic. So but don't worry. I did get a

777
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 4: bunch of Christmas cards. That's the thing, my actual friend.

778
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, people are last minute with them. It's a day

779
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 1: lo suddenly right around Christmas, because.

780
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 3: It's so I end up doing a show right before

781
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,400
Speaker 3: Christmas Eve game day morning, I think it was on

782
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 3: the twenty second, and in the corner of my locker

783
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,000
Speaker 3: there was just like a pile of cards.

Speaker 3: so I know that she's a real one. Caroline, and

829
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:14,439
Speaker 3: she said, you've made me realize it's okay to belly

830
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 3: up to a bro field bar and talk ball with confidence.

831

00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 2: Here I go.

833
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,400
Speaker 3: I know, I know, So I was like a pile

834
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 3: of mush and then.

835
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 1: I got this one, okay, which.

836
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,279
Speaker 3: This year my Christmas card is a celebration of the

837
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,880
Speaker 3: semi feral cats and other creatures living in the neighborhood.

838
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:40,719
Speaker 3: All the cats, all the cats are fixed and we

839
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:42,359
Speaker 3: put out food for them every day.

840
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 4: Although they don't let anyone get close.

841
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,600
Speaker 3: I can use a laser pointer from my window to

842
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:51,839
Speaker 3: play with them, wishing the entire wolf back of Merry Christmas.

843
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 3: And it's the twelve Days of Christmas with all of

844
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,320
Speaker 3: these lives.

00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 4: Got a picture of the feral cats.

846
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 3: So this was the last one I opened, and it

847
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:05,840
Speaker 3: was perfect because I let me see, this was so sentimental,

848
00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,759
Speaker 3: mushy and crying. And then I opened that and it

849
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 3: made me laugh so hard. So I actually had these

850
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:12,399
Speaker 3: hung in my house.

851
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:14,840

852
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:19,240

853
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 1: and register it with NFL security, just to be safe. O,

854
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:27,760
Speaker 1: Like Michael Wu was fine, it's cool, it's cool, but that's.

855
00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,120

Speaker 1: evidence that you were right. You you were right?

881
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 3: Sam, Yes we do, because I would love to remind

882
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,320
Speaker 3: you Greg that I've been talking about Sam Darnold in

883
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 3: the Viking since before the season started. I've been getting

884
00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:01,240
Speaker 3: a little too high on the Vikings, and I feel

885
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 3: like I shouldn't be. It's sort of the the forbidden

886
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 3: strain that I've been going with here. But the Vikings,

887
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:13,600
Speaker 3: like Sam Donald was always the plan for the Vikings.

888
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:17,239
Speaker 3: They were never going to go the other route. He

889
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 3: was always going to start, and he's gotten almost all

890
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 3: of the first team reps from the off season program

891
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 3: up until now. Justin Jefferson's out here telling Diana Rossini

892
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 3: that he's surprised how good Donald's arm.

893
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 4: Is, that his passes are right in hands and.

894
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 2: Feel like a soft TAILO.

895
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 4: That is true. That is a direct quote. So maybe

896
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 4: I'm crazy.

897
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 3: But everyone who is just already writing off the Vikings

898
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:53,279
Speaker 3: and saying that they are going to be worst in

899
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:57,640
Speaker 3: the division, I don't know. Man, you gotta think hard

900
00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 3: about that one. So just for some context too, that

901
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:07,360
Speaker 3: last clip was we were supposed to be things that

902
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:10,439
Speaker 3: we were getting a little too high on. So I did.

903
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,040
Speaker 3: I really leaned into the part you nailed it to

904
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 3: the bit.

905
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:15,440
Speaker 1: I didn't even know that was the bit until we

906
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 1: were actually taping it. And then I went along with

907
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 1: you and that was absolutely beautiful. But yes, that was

908
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 1: that was Those were the very clips that you just

909
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 1: organically happened to bring up earlier in August and in September.

910
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:27,359
Speaker 1: You were right.

911
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 4: Thank you. That is the greatest gift of all.

912
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,319

913
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:33,680
