And now I was only one 28 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 2: who thought that it was only Dodger fans who got 29 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 2: bored in the sixth inning when they just got there 30 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 2: in the fourth inning who started doing the wave. 31 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 4: And then the beach balls start coming out. 32 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, two of my giant pet peeves. 33 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 2: And all of a sudden, I see Arrowhead Stadium or 34 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 2: whatever it's called now, and they're doing the waves the 35 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 2: entire stadium all. 36 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 3: The way around. 37 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 2: No, granted is twenty seven to ten or whatever the 38 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 2: score was halfway through the third quarter. 39 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 3: But come on, for those who don't know, you already 40 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 3: don't like the wave?

And I you know 51 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 2: mysterious spirit now at this point in time, can't stand 52 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 2: the Chiefs, certainly cannot stand the Kansas City Chiefs and 53 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 2: their fans doing the damn wave. 54 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 4: Can you give us a little bit because I can 55 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 4: understand why you hate the Chiefs your Raiders fan, But 56 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 4: what's the backstory on hating the wave? 57 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 3: Like, oh, it's pretty simple. Hate the dolphins too, or 58 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 3: the ocean or echo. The Dolphin was one of my 59 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 3: favorite video games back in the days. 60 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 6: I got nothing. 61 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 2: I got nothing against the dolphins or porpoises or anything 62 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 2: like that. Here's my issue. Let me ask you a question. 63 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 2: Why do you go to a sporting event to watch 64 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 2: the game? Okay, so you don't go to a sporting 65 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 2: event to stand up and wave your arms and that crazy? 66 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 3: For no reason? 67 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 7: Is it? 68 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 4: Because people get in your way and obstruct your view? 69 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 4: And as a kid, that happened and you miss some 70 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 4: big critical run at one point. 71 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,919 Speaker 3: Not necessarily okay, although it doesn't help. 72 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 2: If I'm sitting there actually trying to enjoy the game 73 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 2: and there's some yaho in front of me, He's like, wow, 74 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 2: why and there's two to one and eighth inning? 75 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 3: Why are you doing the wave? Pay attention to the 76 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 3: game on the field. 77 00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 4: Baseball is a game of anticipation, and sometimes there's heavy, 78 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 4: heavy anticipation where nothing is happening for an hour, Kevin, 79 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 4: and people just want to get up and stretch a 80 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 4: little bit. 81 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: Not anymore. 82 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 2: Well, first of all, that's why they have to say anything. Stretch, 83 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 2: all right, get up the stretch of the seven guinea stretch. 84 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 3: You can't always wait for that. 85 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,839 Speaker 4: Hey, Joe, the wave was invented back before we had 86 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:17,839 Speaker 4: pitch clocks. 87 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 3: Just saying no, I mean, these games used to be 88 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 3: a lot longer. 89 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 2: You're not wrong about that, but I would say, especially 90 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 2: now that the pitch clock is in, there's no need 91 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 2: for you to do the wave. All right, there's twenty 92 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 2: some odd seconds between pitches. What's the point doing the way? 93 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 4: You're gonna go around as an usher and just will 94 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 4: just lay down on people that are doing the wave 95 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 4: and just no, yeah, yes, shame. It shouldn't be like 96 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 4: the Shange Service, like jumping in front of a president 97 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 4: that's being assassinated. It's gonna be Kevin jumping in front 98 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 4: of people doing the wave. Yeah, I'm gonna be the 99 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 4: the official sit your ass down guy. That is why hey, 100 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 4: sit down, you sit sit down, sit down, sit down. 101 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 3: This ain't the beach they can they pay me for that? 102 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 3: Is that a job? I don't know. I kind of 103 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 3: like it. It's they sign me up. 104 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 4: Kevin might be onto something here. You may be moonlighting 105 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 4: at Dodger Stadium very soon here or the Big A. 106 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 3: Sure. 107 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 2: Well, I mean there's there's empty seats there, so there's 108 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 2: really no one to tell the sit to go to 109 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 2: go to Anaheim for what reason? 110 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 4: Speaking of empty seats, there were some out there, as 111 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 4: you mentioned, because it's preseason football. Those seats will be 112 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 4: filled soon. But until then, why don't we get the 113 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 4: first off? 114 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 3: That's wrong? 115 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 2: By the way, I will say before we move on 116 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 2: to first off, I will say, I understand if it's 117 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 2: a blowout, sure, and you don't want to leave, maybe 118 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 2: I will relent a little bit on the waves. Still 119 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 2: not a fan of it. I'm more understanding of it 120 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 2: in that situation. But Adam, I'm not lying to you. 121 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 2: I have been to Dodger games where they have been 122 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 2: like up or down three to one in like the 123 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 2: seventh inning, and people are doing the wave and throwing. 124 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:54,559 Speaker 3: Beach balls all over the place. 125 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 4: I mean, I just don't you sound like Shooter McGavin 126 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 4: in the first Happy gal More? 127 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 3: Is this a rock concert? He says, golf. He's right, 128 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 3: He's absolutely right. 129 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 4: Get off my lawn, get off my wave, shake your 130 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:08,919 Speaker 4: fist at the clouds. 131 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 2: Don't get me started on these all these throwback jerseys 132 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 2: and color rush jerseys and all that give me traditional, 133 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 2: give me Penn State white helmet and blue jerseys with 134 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 2: no names on the back. 135 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 4: Well, we started this off by you asking me a question. Yes, 136 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 4: now I want to ask you a question. What are 137 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 4: the headlines here? 138 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 5: Ken? 139 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 7: What are the headlines on the announcement to starting quarterback? 140 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 3: All so funny that you asked Adam? 141 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 2: So the big headline I think coming out of this 142 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 2: week has to be what's happening in Indianapolis with Daniel 143 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 2: Jones being named the starting quarterback over Anthony Richardson, who 144 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 2: just a couple of years ago was the fourth overall 145 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 2: pick in the draft, who had all this potential in 146 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 2: the world. Now, all of a sudden, he feels like 147 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 2: a jilted lover. He's sitting on the bench. 148 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 4: Some people were pearl clutching about Daniel Jones getting the 149 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 4: starting nod heading into week one. They made that decision. 150 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 4: The same guys who drafted Anthony Richardson. By the way 151 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 4: trail their tail. 152 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 3: Between their legs. 153 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 4: They are admitting fault and saying, we're trying to save 154 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 4: our jobs and we think the best way to do 155 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 4: that is to play Daniel Jones. 156 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 3: Well, we're just saying something. Are they okay? 157 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 2: Are they admitting fault though, or are Look there's a 158 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 2: couple of things working against them. So Anthony Richardson played 159 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 2: a little bit as a rookie, they ended up getting injured, 160 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 2: came on the comeback trail, admittedly didn't have the right 161 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 2: kind of work ethic. There was even a couple of 162 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 2: games last year where he got benched and he was healthy, 163 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 2: and Shane stiken said they benched him because he just 164 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 2: didn't have the right preparation throughout the week. So they're trying, 165 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 2: to your point, at this point in time, they're trying 166 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 2: to find a way to save their jobs the best 167 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 2: way they possibly can. They being the general manager Chris 168 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 2: Ballard and the head coach Shane Stikeen. It doesn't mean 169 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: that they don't like Anthony Richardson, but the progression just 170 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 2: hasn't been what they expected it to be, and I 171 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 2: think the injury part of it is a huge deal. 172 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 2: But I don't necessarily think that the Colts are the 173 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 2: bad guy or that they're tucking their tail between their legs. 174 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 2: They're just saying, like, look, this guy just ain't ready yet, 175 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 2: and we are not secure enough in our jobs, especially 176 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 2: with ownership being what it is now that Jim Mersey 177 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 2: has passed away. I don't know what their standing is 178 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 2: with ownership, and I don't think they know that. So 179 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 2: they're just trying to do the best job they can 180 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 2: to try to win football games, and they think Daniel Jones, 181 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 2: the veteran, gives them a better chance than Anthony Richardson, 182 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 2: who's been woefully inconsistent. 183 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 4: Self preservation is kind of a big deal in life, 184 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 4: and they're going with the guy with the higher floor 185 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 4: rather than the guy with maybe the higher ceiling. That 186 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 4: seems safe. That seems like a safe bet. Daniel Jones. 187 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 4: If you watched him in the preseason, he did make 188 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 4: some nice throws. He has a ton of experience relative 189 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 4: to Anthony Richardson at this level. He has won a 190 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 4: playoff game, and I mean he won that playoff game 191 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 4: for them against Minnesota with the New York Giants. 192 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 3: That was all him, his arm and his legs. 193 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones was phenomenal in that game a couple of 194 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 4: years ago. 195 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 3: Was that an outliar for him? 196 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 4: Yes, was absolutely, But that's still more experience than Anthony 197 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 4: Richardson has had. 198 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 3: And listen to this. 199 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 4: I don't think it's that crazy of a move when 200 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 4: you look at some of the statistics out there. I 201 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 4: got this from Law Murray of the Athletic who covers 202 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 4: the end of Disambia. This is how much this story 203 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 4: transcended this week, this quarterback controversy. I guess Anthony Richardson 204 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 4: versus Daniel Jones. The quarterbacks since nineteen ninety nine to 205 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 4: attempt at least two hundred and forty passes in a 206 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 4: season and fail to complete half of them. Achille Smith 207 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 4: in two thousand, JaMarcus. 208 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 3: Russell, I knew he was going to be on there 209 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 3: in two thousand and nine. 210 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: I have witnessed all of those passes, so I knew 211 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 2: he was going to be on that list. 212 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:38,199 Speaker 4: Tim Tebow in twenty eleven and Anthony Richardson in twenty 213 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 4: twenty four. 214 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 3: That is damning. How about this? 215 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 4: There are fifty five quarterbacks that have had at least 216 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 4: one hundred and seventy five attempts over the last two 217 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 4: years in the NFL. Anthony Richardson ranks fifty fifth out 218 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 4: of fifty five inaccuracy, fifty fifth out of fifty five 219 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 4: in completion rate, fiftieth out of fifty five in touchdown 220 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 4: interception ratio. 221 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 3: He's not ready. He's not there yet. 222 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 2: Do you know how difficult it is to complete under 223 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 2: fifty percent of your passes in the NFL in twenty 224 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 2: twenty five? Yeah, Like the metric now, like fifteen years ago, 225 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,679 Speaker 2: if you completed sixty percent of your passages, like, oh, 226 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:15,839 Speaker 2: you're having a pretty damn good year. 227 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 3: Sixty percent now was like lee average. 228 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like, I mean, if you're one of the best 229 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 2: of the best, you're well over seventy percent, And if 230 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 2: you're above average, you're probably hoping around sixty six to 231 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 2: sixty five, which, by the way, is where Daniel Jones 232 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 2: is for his career. 233 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 4: In the modern NFL, you rely on your quarterback more 234 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 4: than ever because the rules have been slanted to favor offenses, 235 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 4: so they have more of an impact than ever on 236 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 4: wins and losses. Out there, What about what about this 237 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 4: one for you here, Kevin, looking only at quarterbacks in 238 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 4: the first two years, since the year two thousand and so, 239 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 4: over the last twenty five seasons that have attempted a 240 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 4: minimum of three hundred passing attempts, there's one. 241 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:55,199 Speaker 3: Hundred and three quarterbacks. 242 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 4: Richardson ranks one to oh three out of one oh 243 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 4: three inaccuracy, one oh two out of one o three 244 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 4: in completion rate, ninety four out of. 245 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 3: One o three in success rate. The numbers are just bad. 246 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 4: And I'm not saying like he's twenty three years of 247 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 4: age or something like that, he can turn this around. 248 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 4: But for the dire straits that this organization is in 249 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 4: right now, especially the GM and the head coach that. 250 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 3: Are shortleash, they have to go. 251 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 4: With the guy that they think is going to be 252 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 4: more of a sure thing right now, even if that 253 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 4: means it's Danny Dimes, which is crazy because his dimes 254 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 4: are like you put a coin on a railroad track, like, well, 255 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 4: it is a stretch to say he's throwing dimes. 256 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 3: It is warped. 257 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,599 Speaker 2: Well, especially considering you're in a pretty winnable division. Do 258 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 2: I say like I like the Houston Texans, They took 259 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 2: half a step back last season. 260 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 3: I think they're still good and they're probably gonna win it. 261 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 2: But outside of them, there's really nobody that scares you 262 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 2: in the AFC South. 263 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 3: So I mean, if the Colts get another good. 264 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 2: Year out of Jonathan Taylor and they're improved a little 265 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 2: bit defensively, I mean, who's to say they can't make 266 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 2: a run of Daniel Jones is an absolutely killing them 267 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,079 Speaker 2: at the quarterback position and is just competent, which, by 268 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 2: the way, I think running Shane Stikeen's offense coming from Philadelphia, 269 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 2: knowing what he did with Jalen hurts. Daniel Jones can run, 270 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 2: you know he can. We can run a little bit, 271 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 2: So I think he's perfect in that offense. 272 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 4: They do call him the white Vick. 273 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 2: Now do you remember that micro Vick's on a trip 274 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 2: over his own foot and stumble at the one yard 275 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 2: line like Daniel Jones did a few years ago. 276 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 4: That was not part of the Michael Vick Experience commercial. 277 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 4: So much so that I think Ross Tucker like laughed, 278 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 4: who was an analyst who went viral his analysis, was 279 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 4: just laughing his ass off because he didn't know what 280 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 4: to say. That was an epic commercial back in the 281 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 4: day for Nike where you're going on a roller coaster 282 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 4: and it brings you out onto the field and you're 283 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 4: dodging defenders and you're kind of in that first person view. 284 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 4: For what Michael Vick sees out there, the Daniel Jones experience, 285 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 4: that roller coaster has a couple of screws missing, That 286 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 4: thing is coming off the tracks. That is a horror 287 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 4: movie that is not as safe. That is Mario Kart 288 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 4: running into a a banana in the road is what 289 00:11:58,760 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 4: that is, is Daniel Jones. 290 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 2: But it makes all the sense in the role that 291 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 2: they would go with this direction. And to your point, 292 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 2: it doesn't mean that Anthony Richardson's career is over. And 293 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 2: I think that's something we'll get into a little bit 294 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 2: later in the show too, talking about guys whose careers 295 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 2: didn't necessarily go the path that you thought it would, 296 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 2: but it might circle back and end up being successful 297 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 2: for them. 298 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 3: It doesn't mean his career in Indianapolis is over. 299 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 2: Who's to say that Daniel Jones doesn't struggle this year 300 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 2: or the team. You know, maybe he's decent, but the 301 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 2: team is struggling a little bit and they want to 302 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 2: spark and they put Richardson in there. There's no doubt 303 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 2: in my mind and even in Seiken's mind, who said 304 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 2: it that he's improved. He just hasn't improved enough to 305 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 2: get them to the point where they feel like they're 306 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 2: confident into making them the starter right now, there's nothing 307 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 2: wrong with that. 308 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 4: Somebody else that has to improve. And who did play 309 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 4: tonight for the Chicago Bears would be Caleb Williams, the 310 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 4: number one pick last season. As we're talking about the 311 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 4: headlines with the starting quarterbacks here, well, he didn't. 312 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 2: Miss wide open guys who weren't being defended, So that's good. Yeah, 313 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 2: like the reports from last week. 314 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 4: Now, Caleb Williams, he started this game off very poorly 315 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 4: against the Kansas City Chiefs. In fact, it was more 316 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 4: the juxtaposition watching Patrick Mahomes out there work his offense 317 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 4: with Kansas City Chiefs and then you see Caleb Williams 318 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 4: a fumble, a false start, an incompletion, he. 319 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 3: Held the ball too long and got sacked again. 320 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, like he held the ball for what six point 321 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 4: two seconds? 322 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 2: Got in time, but I was like, you gotta get 323 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 2: rid of it. You're gonna break the pocket and throw 324 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 2: it away at some point. 325 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 4: Our friend Petros Papadayk has retweeted that and said, twenty 326 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 4: twenty three USC offense. That's what it looked like at times, 327 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 4: like he's always looking to make the big play. He 328 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 4: was trying too hard. He was using his legs on 329 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 4: that possession. He ran right into the defense and eventually 330 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:39,680 Speaker 4: got sacked. But he was very shaky early. Now he 331 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 4: came on later and he found what Rome who I 332 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,559 Speaker 4: guess A Donsay and him have been developing a connection 333 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 4: throughout training camp. 334 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,719 Speaker 3: That has been a story. But my problem is. 335 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 2: Well, I was also against I think the Chiefs backups 336 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:55,839 Speaker 2: at that point exactly. 337 00:13:56,200 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 4: So he struggles early against first team guys. 338 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 2: One of the better defenses you're going to see in 339 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 2: Kansas City, by the way, too, that's fair, So that's 340 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 2: a good challenge. 341 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 4: But is the second and third string come in now 342 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, Calen Williams is finding a rhythm. 343 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 4: Does it matter level of competition? 344 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 3: Isn't there? 345 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:12,559 Speaker 8: No? 346 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 2: I guess it matters in that you like to be 347 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 2: able to see it in a new offense. But obviously 348 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 2: the effectiveness isn't going to be weighted the same as 349 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 2: it would be against the starting union because the issue 350 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 2: with Caleb I mean, there were reports last week prior 351 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 2: to the second preseason game that you know, he was 352 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 2: airmailing balls to wide open receivers in the back of the. 353 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 3: End zone during just pre pregame drills. That's glaring. He 354 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 3: was getting killed by the Chicago media. Oh yeah. 355 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 4: Now, so it seemed a little bit overdone, like people 356 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 4: looking for clicks just because he hadn't even played in 357 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 4: the game yet and they got nothing to talk about. 358 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 4: I understand that side of it. And then he came 359 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 4: and balled out, played well against the Bills second and 360 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 4: third string guys, and Chicago is they're overly sensitive to 361 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 4: poor quarterback play, maybe because they had ton of it. 362 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 2: Mark, Mark, You're okay when it comes to quarterback play, right, 363 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 2: You've had a great run of quarterbacks. 364 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I think I'm getting over it. Well, sid 365 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 3: Luck is not walking through that door. 366 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 4: What we're saying, huh, like their best quarterback in the 367 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 4: last twenty five years or one of. 368 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 3: My favorites, probably Jay Cutler. 369 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 4: No, Jay Cutler probably more accurate than this guy. 370 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 3: Oh. 371 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 4: I was just starting of somebody who got royded up 372 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 4: and had a big season. The first quarterback to get 373 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 4: busted for Royd's Jim Miller. Jim Miller, that's right, Like 374 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 4: they had to have a guy get on Royd's just 375 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 4: to have competent quarterback play in Chicago. 376 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 2: I mean, all due respect to Jim Miller, who has 377 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 2: turned himself into a really good analyst at this point 378 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 2: in time, But didn't he really just turn the ball, 379 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 2: turn the ball off to the A train. 380 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 3: But they had their run. 381 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 4: He threw it so far on some of those defense 382 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 4: because of the Royds was brought up vicer earlier. Remember 383 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 4: remember the Power Raid commercials where Vick was throwing it 384 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 4: in one hundred yards. 385 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 3: That was Jim Miller in real life on Royds. 386 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 4: I just remember those Bears defenses averaging more than the 387 00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 4: Bears offense. 388 00:15:58,160 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 3: They were good. 389 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 4: That might not be true, but it's source like it 390 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,359 Speaker 4: Nate nineties Bears defense and running games. 391 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 3: Early two thousands, or Arlacker. 392 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 4: It felt in there their identity was intact of what 393 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 4: the Bears are supposed to be, because the truth is 394 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 4: they're not allowed to have competent quarterback play. That's just 395 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 4: not the Bears. It's just not who they are. They're 396 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 4: supposed to have a strong running game. Uh oh, the 397 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 4: running is not in vogue as much as it used. 398 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 3: To be, and as we mentioned earlier, I. 399 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 4: Don't think it's come making a bit of a comeback. Sure, 400 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 4: you know some of the better teams. 401 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 2: You look at your Baltimore as you look at what 402 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 2: the Philadelphia Eagles did this past year. We know how 403 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 2: cyclical things are in this league. So as it has 404 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 2: turned into a passing league, it would not surprise me. 405 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 2: Given the right six situation circumstance, O line offense of 406 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 2: the running back talent, I think we can ever return 407 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 2: to the running game. 408 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 3: I did some more value for running back. 409 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 4: I ain't going back to nineteen eighty five though. No, 410 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 4: we're not going back to Walter Payton like that. 411 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're not going to have fourteen guys you know, 412 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 2: running for over fifteen hundred yards or whatever it was. 413 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 4: So the Bears used to be able to rely on 414 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 4: running the football, having a stout defense and just a 415 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 4: placeholder manager at quarterback. In today's NFL, you got to 416 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 4: have a top tier quarterback to win at the highest level. 417 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 4: So they're missing a big part of the formula here. Well, 418 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 4: here's the thing we know, Caleb has the talent and 419 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 4: the ability. The problem is, yeah, okay, he has the arm, talent, 420 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 4: he has the ability. 421 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 3: We know he can play. 422 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 2: The issue is trying to coach him out of those 423 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 2: bad habits, which is hard to do because he basically 424 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 2: played his entire college career running for his life, whether 425 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 2: he had to or whether he forced it upon himself. 426 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 2: And it's debatable, you know which one that was. I 427 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 2: think it probably was a little bit of both, depending 428 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 2: on the situation. So now Ben Johnson has been tasked 429 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 2: with having to coach him out of it while also 430 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 2: trying to make sure. I think leaning on the run 431 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 2: game is something that they want to do. That's what 432 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 2: Detroit did as great as Jared golf was the last 433 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 2: couple of years under Ben Johnson, making almost think goodbye 434 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 2: it at that Jamier Gibbs in the run game is 435 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 2: what made that team go. I think, so that's what 436 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 2: they want to do now with Swift and the guys 437 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 2: in the backfield. They want to lean on the run 438 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 2: and take more pressure off of Caleb. 439 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 4: And if you look at that first game against the 440 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 4: Bills in the preseason, like Ben Johnson was orchestrating all 441 00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 4: that good work by Caleb Williams. 442 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:00,679 Speaker 3: They were all reads. 443 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 4: He didn't go to a second read. I don't think 444 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 4: on one of those throws. It was quick offense and 445 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 4: get guys in space, get your athletes in space. That's 446 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,959 Speaker 4: what Ben Johnson is good at scheming. Yes, he did 447 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 4: it with Jared Goff. He can elevate lesser talent. I 448 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 4: do believe that's the biggest piece that can change things 449 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,679 Speaker 4: for Caleb Williams. Because I'm being hard on him. I 450 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 4: understand he has the arm talent, he has the ability, 451 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 4: but he makes some low IQ decisions out there because 452 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 4: he thinks he can throw himself out of trouble. Sometimes 453 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 4: he's got some of that Brett fav in him where 454 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 4: he takes far too many risks. We saw it in 455 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 4: Southern California for USC for years, and tonight was another 456 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 4: example against the first team defense of the Kansas City Chiefs. 457 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 4: How are you gonna hold onto the ball for six 458 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 4: seconds and not make a pass? Your offensive line did 459 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 4: their job. Scody's got to be open in six seconds. 460 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 3: Or takeoff or run, just go. 461 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 2: If you said you talking about Michael Vick earlier, Michael 462 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 2: Vicker drove back for a quarter of a second and 463 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,679 Speaker 2: take off. Yeah, I'd almost rady that. Then just sit 464 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 2: in the pocket and run in certains and think get sacked. 465 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 4: His first big play was a run to the left 466 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 4: when Ben Johnson had the defense thinking it was going 467 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 4: right right like it's scheme is strategy. He is an 468 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 4: offensive mastermind. If I'm a Bears fan, That's what I'm 469 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 4: holding onto right now. 470 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 2: About a Bears fan, I'm actually fairly optimistic. I have 471 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 2: faith in Ben Johnson has an offensive play caller. Now, 472 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,640 Speaker 2: from a head coaching standpoint, we'll see, But as far 473 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 2: as his fingerprints on the offense and the talent that 474 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 2: they have around Caleb Williams, I'm actually a believer. 475 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 3: Now, does that mean they're gonna win fourteen games? No? 476 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:32,199 Speaker 3: Absolutely not. 477 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 8: Yeah. 478 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 3: How far are you going with this belief. 479 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 2: In the conversation for a playoff spot by the time 480 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 2: we get to Christmas? 481 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 4: I'll say that that's fair. Yeah, I like that. That's 482 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 4: going out on a limb a little bit considering how 483 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 4: much they struggled last season. Now I'll say this, the 484 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 4: numbers actually look better. For how much Caleb Williams has 485 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 4: been scrutinized for his performance and his rookie season. The 486 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 4: numbers aren't that bad, right, The record wasn't great and 487 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 4: he still made some bad decisions out there, but I'm 488 00:19:58,840 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 4: not giving up on him yet. 489 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of being SCRUTINWS, we gotta get out of 490 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 2: here before bree rips our heads off. So we are 491 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 2: broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studios.

If they don't have Micah Parsons for a 564 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 4: week one. 565 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 3: I'll let you win on a secret at him.

I don't know if 571 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 4: they're gonna have a good defense. They're gonna have to 572 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,920 Speaker 4: put up a lot of points throwing the football. Speaking 573 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 4: of fantasy football, guru James co will join us in 574 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 4: the next hour, but Jerry Jones is still talking. He 575 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 4: was one of the first subjects we had doing this 576 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,679 Speaker 4: show on Fox Sports Radio and he's back, and you know, 577 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:42,159 Speaker 4: at first, I thought like, maybe this is about the 578 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 4: contract negotiation and just Jerry being Jerry with Micah Parsons, 579 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 4: And I thought, is Jerry Jones peaking as Jerry Jones? 580 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 4: This is this fully actualized Jerry Jones here, Kevin. Is 581 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,199 Speaker 4: he still finding himself? Is he going to Thailand to 582 00:23:58,240 --> 00:23:58,880 Speaker 4: find himself? 583 00:23:58,880 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 3: Like he's in White. 584 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 4: Lotus or something like. That's what I thought at first, 585 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 4: And this is just par for the course. Now I'm 586 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:07,640 Speaker 4: kind of thinking it's getting personal here. 587 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 3: This is a little bit. 588 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 4: This is more than just any other contract negotiation he's had. 589 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,159 Speaker 3: Jerry's going on this giant media tour now. 590 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 2: I'm sure it's to promote the documentary, which I don't 591 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 2: know if you've seen any of I've saw the first episode. 592 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 2: I haven't seen any of the others of the Dallas 593 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 2: Cowboy documentary on Netflix. 594 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 3: It's ten parts. 595 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 4: You know, I have trouble commitment issues committing to a 596 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 4: ten part documentary. It was different when it was the 597 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 4: last dance during COVID because there was not much to 598 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 4: it was nothing to do with it was that in 599 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:33,360 Speaker 4: the Tiger King all day. 600 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 2: But this is this is totally this is one at 601 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 2: a time, Adam. You don't have to been to the 602 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 2: entire series in one night. 603 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 3: Okay, well a lot. 604 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,640 Speaker 4: I heard the San Francisco forty nine ers are featured 605 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 4: a lot in one of the episodes. Yeah, and you 606 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 4: know I hate them, so that reason I might have 607 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:45,239 Speaker 4: to wait on this. 608 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:45,880 Speaker 3: There you go. 609 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 2: So Jerry Jones making the media rounds, and obviously the 610 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 2: topic is your other than the documentary is Micah Parsons 611 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 2: and his contract situation and Jerry. The SoundBite that made 612 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 2: a lot of waves earlier this week was talking about 613 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 2: the negotiation between Jerry and Michaeh Parson's agent and what 614 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 2: Michael Parson's agent thought of the offer. 615 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 11: We wanted to send the details to the agent the agent, 616 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 11: Soldiers Topper asked, well, we got this theory resolved in 617 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 11: my mind for the dollars cowboys. 618 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 3: Huh, but you don't say so. 619 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 2: You're trying to go around the agent again, Like we 620 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 2: talked about this before, go around the agent and negotiate 621 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 2: directly with Parsons. And the agent is the one who 622 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 2: has to sign off on it. Now, look, he doesn't 623 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 2: necessarily have to. But that is his job as an 624 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 2: NFLPA certified agent. 625 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 3: That's why he's there. If that's if that. 626 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 2: Was the case, Adam and Michael Parson just wants to 627 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 2: negotiate on his own, which. 628 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 3: He could do. 629 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,399 Speaker 2: He could Russell Okum did it for his entire career. 630 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson's mom is like his business manager. But he 631 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 2: technically doesn't have an agent. You can work without an 632 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 2: agent if you will, if you want to, but he 633 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 2: has one go through the proper channels. And to make 634 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 2: it seem as if there's some issue with the agent 635 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 2: of the agent is being hoity toity in this situation 636 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 2: with the Jerry Jones. 637 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 3: That's the part that doesn't sit well with me. 638 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,160 Speaker 4: He thought he had some good old fashioned handshake deal 639 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 4: with Michaeh. Parsons back in April through the back door, 640 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 4: going through the back door, well clandestine style. Then the 641 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,640 Speaker 4: agent hears about that. Maybe Michael Parsons was good with it, 642 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 4: Maybe they had a verbal agreement. There is such a thing. 643 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 4: The problem is you go to court over a verbal 644 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 4: agreement and then you get the details on what was 645 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 4: said if there was no recording like that is such 646 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 4: a difficult thing to prove, but a handshake deal like this, 647 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 4: it just makes me think his agent got in Michaeh 648 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 4: Parson's ear. And even though Michael Parsons was initially okay 649 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 4: with this, with Jerry Jones and him just hammering this 650 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 4: thing out by themselves, eventually the agent said, now, I 651 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 4: don't know we can get more money, come my way, 652 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 4: little devil on the shoulder. This is how we're gonna 653 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 4: do things. And that third person interfering here is the 654 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 4: hold up. 655 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 2: Ultimately, Yeah, and look, I mean the agent has an 656 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 2: agenda too. Let's say, yes, he's trying to act in 657 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 2: the best interest of his client, but he's also trying 658 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 2: to act in the best interests of other clients. I 659 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 2: don't know what other past rushers he has is clients 660 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 2: for him. 661 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 4: He's getting a percentage of whatever Parsons gets. So the 662 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 4: big of the contract, the more he's making. 663 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:06,360 Speaker 3: Yeah. 664 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 2: So, and not only that, if Parson signs a big contract, 665 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,919 Speaker 2: we already seen the market for defensive ends or pass rushers, 666 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 2: however you want to classify them. The barget raised this 667 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 2: offseason because Max Crosby got paid and you know, a 668 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 2: couple Trey Henderson is trying to get paid from Cincinnati. 669 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 2: That's what he's looking for as a higher guarantee. He's 670 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 2: not getting that yet. 671 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 3: TJ. 672 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 2: Watt got a massive contract, and the problem is Michael 673 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 2: Parsons and the Dallas Cowboys. They could have inked this 674 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,439 Speaker 2: deal before any of those deals were happening, and Dallas 675 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 2: actually would have been in the better for it, because 676 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 2: Parsons probably would have inked for less. 677 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 3: Than what those guys made. 678 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 2: But now that he's waited after the fact, his number 679 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 2: is only going to be more and more expensive. 680 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 4: He doesn't have a lot of leverage here either. And 681 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 4: Jerry Jones pointed this out. 682 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 3: It's true. 683 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 4: The problem is he's under contract this season and then 684 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 4: you could franchise him the next two years. 685 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:54,919 Speaker 2: I will say the franchise number is gonna end up 686 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 2: biting the Cowboys because that tag number is going to 687 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 2: go up. It's based on the average of the top 688 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 2: five player paid players at that position, and again, three 689 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 2: of the top five paid players got their new contracts 690 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 2: this offseason. 691 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 3: But it number is gonna fire up. 692 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 4: Kick the can down the road for them to figure 693 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:16,479 Speaker 4: it out later and maybe at some point Parsons gives 694 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,120 Speaker 4: in because I don't know if Jerry's gonna budge right now. 695 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 4: Now this getting personal to this degree. That's the part 696 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 4: that makes this standout from other situations where we try 697 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 4: to parallel this with Dak before with CD lamb. 698 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 3: Now it's like, oh he told him stick it. 699 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 2: Where like this is getting bad well personal as we 700 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 2: think it might be. Jerry Jones says that he appreciates 701 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 2: Michael more than anybody. 702 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 11: Nobody appreciates Michael Parson anymore than the Cowboys or me, nobody, 703 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 11: nobody has ever offered him more money than I haven't 704 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 11: played football period. 705 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yeah, of course you're gonna offer more money, 706 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 2: But is the right amount, is at the right length 707 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 2: we are the right guarantees? 708 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 4: Is the right offset language in there? See the problem 709 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 4: the agent is looking at is I don't know. 710 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, you could have a verbal agreement, but no disrespect 711 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 2: to Micah or anybody who's not a lawyer or an agent. 712 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 2: Do you know what you're reading through those fifty stacks 713 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 2: of papers and what you're signing on for. 714 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 3: Jerry could tell you a bunch of stuff. 715 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 2: All of a sudden you suffer an injury, and all 716 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 2: of a sudden, you know you signed Thatt's say, one 717 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty five million dollars in eighty of it's guaranteed, 718 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 2: but only thirty of it's guaranteed for injury, when you 719 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 2: could have gott it seventy guaranteed for injury. That's Those 720 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 2: are the minute details that are very important. That might 721 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 2: and I'm not saying this is the case. I'm just 722 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 2: making up an arbitrary, you know, situation, but that might 723 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 2: be the case for Micah. His agent wants to make 724 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 2: sure that Jerry Jones and the Cowboys aren't trying to 725 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 2: pull the wall over his eyes. 726 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 4: The part of this that still feels confounding, though, is 727 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 4: the fact that you have a player this young, this good, 728 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 4: he technically hasn't hit his prime years yet. This is 729 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 4: the type of guy you should pay. And I'll point 730 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 4: this out. Micah Parsons already has fifty two and a 731 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 4: half sacks and four seasons, the most saxon NFL history 732 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 4: Before a player he turns twenty seven, he's still twenty six. 733 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 4: JJ Watt seventy four and a half, Miles Garrett seventy two, 734 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 4: Reggie White seventy, the late great Derek Thomas sixty six, 735 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 4: von Miller with sixty, Joey Bosa with fifty eight, Jared 736 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 4: Allen with fifty seven and a half, Bruce Smith with 737 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 4: fifty seven and a half, Nick Bosa with fifty seven. 738 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 4: He's right behind some of the best ever. 739 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 2: I mean, all those guys, with the exception of the 740 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:29,719 Speaker 2: Bosa brothers, are sure fire Hall of famers. 741 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 4: Well, we're talking about guys that aged well, yeah, that 742 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 4: after the age of twenty six continued into prime years. 743 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 4: That's the trajectory that Micah Parsons is on. You want 744 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,719 Speaker 4: to pay this guy, But I'm afraid now, if you're 745 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 4: a Dallas Cowboys fan, it has gotten to the point 746 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 4: where Jerry's so dug in and so obstinate about it, 747 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 4: that is going to be a problem that could bleed 748 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 4: into Week one. 749 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 3: Honestly. 750 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I guess if you wanted to make a statement, 751 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 2: if you're Micah, you could set out a couple of 752 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 2: regular season games. You're gonna end up losing money, but 753 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 2: it could be one of those look what you look 754 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 2: like without me situations. 755 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 3: That's your leverage. 756 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 2: He's not gonna sit out the entire season, because if 757 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 2: he does, we're right back in this exactly the same situation. 758 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 2: He's not gonna get paid a dime for this year. 759 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 2: He's going to be operating under the exact same contract 760 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:16,719 Speaker 2: as he's operating under right now, or would be operating 761 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 2: under right now. 762 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 4: And he showed up to training camp, which is a 763 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 4: no no hold in, and it just seemed like he 764 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 4: wanted to be one of the guys. 765 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I can't get away from football. I can't 766 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 3: get away from my guys. 767 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 4: I don't know if he's the type that would sit 768 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 4: out and lose that money and watch his team suffer 769 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 4: because of it. 770 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 2: Well, he looked good to me walking in earlier tonight 771 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 2: with the the what was it French fries or nachos 772 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 2: or something. 773 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 3: He's walking in. 774 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 2: There in Atlanta, laying down on the trainer's table like 775 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 2: he doesn't have a care in the world. 776 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 4: I heard there was extra cheese on those nachas because 777 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 4: he wants a little extra chedder in this contract. 778 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 2: I'm sure now here the issue is too for the Cowboys. 779 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 2: They don't necessarily have the easiest schedule, so I'm thinking 780 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 2: if they get off to a slow start and say 781 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 2: Micah isn't there, And by the way, even if he is, there. 782 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 2: He hasn't been in practice padded practices. I know people 783 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 2: try to poopoo the preseason. Not to steal a line 784 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 2: from Rob Parker, but getting some live contact does matter, 785 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 2: especially for a position like that. What if he needs 786 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 2: a game or two or three or four to get 787 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 2: his legs under him. I'm looking at the start of 788 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 2: their schedule. It's not necessarily super daunting, but it's not easy. 789 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 2: You have the opener against the Eagles, then you have 790 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 2: the Giants. All right, fine, that's probably a cake walk, Bears, Packers, Jets. 791 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 2: I don't think the Bears and the Packers are necessarily easy. 792 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 2: You get off to a slow start, it could be 793 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 2: hard to recover because then look at this at him, 794 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 2: look at after their bye week. Now they have the Raiders, 795 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 2: which I mean, who could be more difficult than that, 796 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 2: the Raiders in Vegas. But followed by this is after 797 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 2: their buy so there's no breaks after this. Eagles, Chiefs, Lions, Vikings, Chargers. 798 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 2: Then you're at Washington. Then you end the season at 799 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 2: the Giants. That is Murderer's row the last month and 800 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 2: a half of the season, so they have to stack 801 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 2: wins early. As with Chelle, you get him where you can, 802 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 2: and if you don't have one of your best players, 803 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 2: you buy far your best defensive player out there, that 804 00:32:57,920 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 2: could be a huge detriment to you. 805 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 4: The other here is, and we talked about this initially 806 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 4: with this standoff, is I'm not sure how committed Jerry 807 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 4: Jones is to winning in the first place. I still 808 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 4: think his super Bowl is being the most talked about 809 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 4: franchise in sports, regardless of wins and losses. The top 810 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 4: of the mountain for him is being the biggest brand 811 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 4: and doing so while they haven't won the Super Bowl 812 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 4: since nineteen ninety six. Like that is the feather in 813 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 4: his cafe he cares about most. And then it's the microphone, 814 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 4: the camera in his face. That's his bluep shoe. That's 815 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 4: what Jerry Jones wants. Just give me a microphone and 816 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 4: a camera. I bet he goes home, watches himself, dissects 817 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 4: the tape, makes some adjustments for the next time he's 818 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 4: in front of the camera. This is what Jerry Jones 819 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 4: cares about. And the more Micah Parsons is sitting on 820 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 4: the sidelines and not on the field, the more attention 821 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 4: he gets. 822 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 2: I do agree that Jerry Jones does crave the attention, 823 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 2: does want the attention. I don't believe that he wants 824 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 2: it more or cares about it more than winning, but 825 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 2: I do think that it's top of the priority list. 826 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 4: I'll say that there is a soap opera element to 827 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 4: the Dallas Cowboys. And just like in soap operas where 828 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 4: you have that trope where somebody has been been in 829 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 4: a coma for a long time, you could have been 830 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 4: in a coma from nineteen ninety six until now and 831 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 4: not have missed the Cowboys winning the Super Bowl. 832 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 3: That's how bad it's been. 833 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 2: Speaking of bad, the NFL obviously had some issues to 834 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 2: this offseason in the PA with collusion. Could that be 835 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,800 Speaker 2: another potential collusion story evolving the NFL and all thirty 836 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 2: two of its teams when it pertains to one particular 837 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 2: draft pick from this past April we'll talk about Coming 838 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 2: up next on Fox Sports Saturday, Kevin Figures and Adam 839 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 2: Alston with you. 840 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 3: Back to Fox Sports Saturday. 841 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,839 Speaker 2: Welcome in, Kevin Figures, Adam Auson with you guys at 842 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 2: kfig one is where you can find you on. 843 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 3: Next Adam at follow Adam a on X as well. 844 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:51,359 Speaker 4: Come on our next hour fantasy football expert James Coe. 845 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 4: You've seen him on DirectTV NFL Network.

The Rogan and Rodney Show and ed 864 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 4: Our old friend Eric Dickerson was on as he's prone 865 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 4: to be. 866 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, Rams Hall of Famer mister twenty one oh five. 867 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 2: Eric Dickerson was a guest on the show, as he 868 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,919 Speaker 2: typically is during football season, and he had some interest 869 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 2: and comments about Shador Sanders. We all know that Sador 870 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 2: Sanders much talked about, much hyped up going into this 871 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 2: past April's NFL Draft. Many people thought he can go 872 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 2: anywhere between the first and third rounds. He ends up 873 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:13,600 Speaker 2: falling all the way to the fifth round to the 874 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns. Now, if you listen to what Eric Dickerson 875 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 2: told Fred Rogan and Rodney Pete earlier this week on 876 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 2: a five to seventy l A Sports the according to 877 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 2: his sources, the NFL didn't even want that to happen. 878 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 6: And I'll tell you as much here what I and 879 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 6: what I heard from someone that's in the NFL that 880 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 6: the NFL put it told other don't draft him, do 881 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 6: not draft him. We're gonna make up, we're gonna make 882 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 6: an example out of him. And this came from a 883 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,919 Speaker 6: very good source, a very good source. And he said 884 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:44,280 Speaker 6: that I won't say who. Somebody called the Cleveland Browns 885 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 6: and said, don't do that. Draft really, yep, draft him, 886 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 6: don't don't don't do that because they weren't drafted either. 887 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 3: They weren't gonna drafted. All right. I love Ed. I 888 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:55,399 Speaker 3: feel a butt coming. 889 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 4: He is prone to speaking his mind. 890 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,280 Speaker 2: Now, he did say he got this information from a source, 891 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 2: so he's not talking out of school here is this 892 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,480 Speaker 2: is going off with somebody that he spoke with, who 893 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:07,280 Speaker 2: he says would have knowledge of these things. 894 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,920 Speaker 4: I don't doubt someone told him that. The question is 895 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 4: did it happen? How true is it? To what degree 896 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 4: did the NFL really manipulate the draft to stop Shadeur 897 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:20,760 Speaker 4: Sanders from being drafted earlier? 898 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,719 Speaker 2: Let me ask it this way, do you think that 899 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,880 Speaker 2: it's out of the realm of possibility or unbelievable that 900 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 2: the NFL would potentially collude to have something like this happened. 901 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:32,760 Speaker 3: I don't think it's that far fetched. 902 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:36,399 Speaker 4: It's not that far fetched, But I don't know if 903 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 4: it's worth the risk just to teach Schadere Sanders a lesson, like, 904 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 4: because this guy's so braggadocious and his dad is Dion, 905 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 4: we're really gonna stick it to him. Because here's my 906 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,279 Speaker 4: theory on this, and here's how I always feel my 907 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 4: philosophy about big conspiracies, and this would be one. Absolutely, 908 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 4: a lot of people would have to be involved. Everybody 909 00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 4: would have to be told, whether it's a asset look 910 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,720 Speaker 4: or a phone call or a text or a memo. 911 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 4: Teams would have to be told this, and according to Ed, 912 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,359 Speaker 4: the Browns were told even in the fifth round, don't 913 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 4: take them, not to take them. So how far is 914 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 4: the NFL going with this? Even in the fifth round. 915 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,399 Speaker 3: That's not enough of an example to make out of them. 916 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 2: I mean, we just came out of a lawsuit where 917 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 2: the NFL was basically proven to have colluded and told 918 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,280 Speaker 2: each other, you know, we're never gonna give a guaranteed 919 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,919 Speaker 2: money like Deshaun Watson got from the Cleveland Browns. Having 920 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,880 Speaker 2: these internal discussions between owners about how business practices are 921 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 2: gonna work is not wholly unprecedented, and it's a lot different. 922 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 3: And this is also never confirmed. 923 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 2: But if you remember back some years ago when Michael 924 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,359 Speaker 2: Sam was the defensive player of the year in the 925 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,319 Speaker 2: SEC at Missouri and fell in the draft, you know, 926 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 2: he was openly he was an openly gay player. An 927 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 2: openly gay player had never been drafted, and there were 928 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 2: rumors that Jeff Fisher and the Rams were basically told 929 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,840 Speaker 2: by the NFL do us as solid and draft Michael 930 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 2: Sam because basically it would make the NFL look good 931 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,800 Speaker 2: from a pr standpoint. That was never proven, but it 932 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 2: was a long held theory that a lot of people 933 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:00,759 Speaker 2: will still hold on to. 934 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,799 Speaker 4: I still wonder how many teams would be like, if 935 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,799 Speaker 4: they really thought he was talented enough, Well, we can't 936 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 4: take him, because the NFL is gonna do what They're 937 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 4: gonna take away picks and not explain why to the public. 938 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,880 Speaker 4: The Cleveland Browns lost three first round picks for an 939 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 4: undisclosed reason, Like, how how could they penalize somebody for 940 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,400 Speaker 4: taking him? They can't with them the cover being blown 941 00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 4: off the story of why. 942 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 3: Well, that's the thing. You couldn't penalize him. 943 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 2: I guess if the only thing you could do is 944 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 2: strongly discourage them from doing it, and if it first 945 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 2: of all, I hope it's not true too, because this 946 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,279 Speaker 2: would be a horrible look for the NFL from up 947 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 2: from a pr standpoint, because you're telling me that the 948 00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:39,720 Speaker 2: Kansas City Chiefs can draft Tyreek Hill, a guy who 949 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 2: beat up his pregnant girlfriend while he was in college 950 00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 2: at Oklahoma State, and the fact that this guy can 951 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 2: get drafted, but you're telling me that you George Sanders 952 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 2: because he happens to be braggadocio and blows off a 953 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 2: couple of interviews. 954 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,879 Speaker 3: You're telling teams not to draft him. I hope that 955 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:52,359 Speaker 3: that's not. 956 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 2: True, Yeah, because that would be a horrible look for 957 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 2: a pr standpoint for the NFL. 958 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 4: That's kind of how I feel about it. Typically when 959 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 4: it comes to major conspiracy sees, you know, the people 960 00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:04,760 Speaker 4: who hate the government are also saying but they're stupid 961 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 4: and smart at the same time, because the government's screwing 962 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:13,000 Speaker 4: everything up. But also they killed JFK and aliens are real, 963 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,480 Speaker 4: they're smart enough to hide that stuff from us while 964 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 4: screwing up everything else. Like, it doesn't work like that. 965 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:22,880 Speaker 4: That is a complete contradiction, And I feel kind of 966 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 4: the same way here. But you're right, it is possible. 967 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 4: It's not completely out of the Roman possibility. 968 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:29,759 Speaker 2: All right, was not out of the Roman possibility, as 969 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 2: Adam and I will be back next talking to some 970 00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 2: college football here on Fox Sports Saturday. 971 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 972 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,399 Speaker 3: Welcome back in It's our two of the FNA show 973 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 3: here on FSR on a Fox Sports Saturday.

And 987 00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 2: I knew that was a thing in mad and I 988 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:11,840 Speaker 2: didn't realized that was a thing in fantasy. 989 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 3: I feel like it should be at some point at 990 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 3: least should I start that. No, I wouldn't sign up 991 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 3: for that, distorting my history of drafting. I don't know 992 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:20,760 Speaker 3: if I do that. Not a Jason Smith Patton pending. 993 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 3: Not at all, Not at all. 994 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:25,879 Speaker 4: Something we did mention last week, and it's a little 995 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 4: bit of a follow up. 996 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. 997 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 4: Well, Jim Harbaugh and the Michigan Wolverines got what was 998 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 4: the equivalent of a slap on the wrist by the 999 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 4: NCAA for their quote unquote spygates scandal, their stealing signs 1000 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:45,360 Speaker 4: scandal from two years ago. It was like a slap 1001 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 4: bracelet from the nineties that would just wrap around your wrist, 1002 00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:51,879 Speaker 4: and there was a myth out there that some kid 1003 00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,720 Speaker 4: broke his wrist using the slap bracelet. My parents wouldn't 1004 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 4: let me get one because of it, Like it was nothing. 1005 00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 2: Kevin I would say, it's probably more like you remember 1006 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 2: the old the racetracks, the old racetracks you would have 1007 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 2: when you were a kid with old cars. It's probably 1008 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,360 Speaker 2: more like somebody taking you when smacking you on the 1009 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:07,839 Speaker 2: hand with that. 1010 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:09,800 Speaker 3: It hurts for a little bit, but it won't kill you. 1011 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 2: It we're off twenty million dollars to twenty million dollars 1012 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,240 Speaker 2: hits your athletic department, or at least twenty million dollars 1013 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,440 Speaker 2: is not nothing. They'll be able to make up for it. 1014 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 2: It's not gonna hurt them too badly, but it does 1015 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 2: sting a little bit. 1016 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:24,759 Speaker 3: Well, I saw this. 1017 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:30,760 Speaker 4: Somebody point out that Urban Meyer, former Big ten legend 1018 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,040 Speaker 4: you could say, with the Ohio State Buck guys and 1019 00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 4: rival of Jim Harbaugh's, was making a good point. Someone said, 1020 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 4: you know the meme the worst person in the world 1021 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,799 Speaker 4: just made a good point. Yeah, the person you hate 1022 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:44,680 Speaker 4: the most actually just made a good point. 1023 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:46,439 Speaker 3: For once. That was urban Meyer this week. 1024 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, so urban Meyer's talking about Jim Harball and the 1025 00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 2: fact that he basically cut and ran from Michigan, you know, 1026 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,319 Speaker 2: at the I guess best possible time for him, right 1027 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 2: before the stations came down, and Harball gets hit with 1028 00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 2: a ten year or the eight year or ten year 1029 00:42:58,239 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 2: show calls. 1030 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 3: Either does a man come going. 1031 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:02,040 Speaker 4: Back to college football at any time? So he ain't going 1032 00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 4: back anyway. 1033 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 2: And by the way, even if he did, I feel 1034 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 2: like the show calls doesn't really hold as much weight 1035 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:08,239 Speaker 2: as it did back in the day. You Basically, all 1036 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 2: the show calls is is if a college wants to 1037 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:12,840 Speaker 2: hire you, you have to speak it front of the NCAA, 1038 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 2: in front of a panel and explain why it can 1039 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,399 Speaker 2: present a compelling case as to why they should allow 1040 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 2: you to hire him. 1041 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 4: Make your case, bring some evidence to the table. He 1042 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,400 Speaker 4: ain't got to worry about that because it's basically like 1043 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 4: he ran to or flew to Columbia, correct, and he's 1044 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 4: not going to be extra died from the NFL. 1045 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, and urban Meyer says like, well, hold on, so 1046 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:35,800 Speaker 2: Ohio State, I hit with all these sanctions and guys 1047 00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:39,200 Speaker 2: got fired. And then Terrell Pryor got suspended for games 1048 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 2: in his NFL career for stuff that he did at 1049 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 2: Ohio State far less. Yeah, So why are we not 1050 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,319 Speaker 2: having that exact same situation right now when it comes 1051 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:47,920 Speaker 2: to Jim Harble. 1052 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:48,960 Speaker 3: Let's hear from Urban Meyer. 1053 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 8: There's an elephant in the room here, boys, though, that 1054 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,279 Speaker 8: no one's talking about. When Jim Trussell was fired at 1055 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 8: Ohio State and he was given a suspension, Roger Goodell, 1056 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:02,080 Speaker 8: commissioner of that football league, came out and said that 1057 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,000 Speaker 8: we're going to honor that violate, that we're going to 1058 00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:06,640 Speaker 8: honor that suspension. And you remember he went to an 1059 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 8: Indianapolis Colts to work in the replay room or something. 1060 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 8: The Colts because the respect they had for the NCAA 1061 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:19,360 Speaker 8: and the suspension, Julize suspended Jim Trussell, so he was 1062 00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,720 Speaker 8: unable to perform his duties for the first six games 1063 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:26,000 Speaker 8: of the year for the Indianapolis Colts. I think we 1064 00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 8: all know the answer. Yeah, any chance that Roger Goodell 1065 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 8: and the NFL, of course not. 1066 00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 2: So you talk about the meme that you saw earlier 1067 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,359 Speaker 2: this week, Adam, I mean, he's not wrong. Urban does 1068 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 2: have a point, doesn't he. 1069 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 6: Yeah? 1070 00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:41,840 Speaker 2: Okay, I watched you Harball be held to a lesser 1071 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,680 Speaker 2: standard for something for he did something that was far worse. 1072 00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 2: All Jim Trussell did was essentially try to protect the 1073 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,480 Speaker 2: kids and lie about them trading their I guess what 1074 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 2: they had cards or whatever, memorabilia for tattoos. 1075 00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:54,600 Speaker 3: And he lost his job over it. 1076 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:58,280 Speaker 2: You could argue he was already he already got his punishment, 1077 00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 2: he got fired from his job, So why the NFL 1078 00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:02,320 Speaker 2: needs to double down and give him another suspension. 1079 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 4: Terrell Prior would have a sponsorship through Nil from that 1080 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,799 Speaker 4: tattoo parlor today if he played in college football now, 1081 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 4: because things have changed that much. It's a totally different universe. 1082 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 4: But I will say this, while it's not apples and oranges, 1083 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:21,960 Speaker 4: I think it's like a red delicious apple versus a 1084 00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:26,880 Speaker 4: Granny Smith when you're trying to parallel these two situations 1085 00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:29,799 Speaker 4: here between Michigan and what happened back in the day 1086 00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:35,279 Speaker 4: with Ohio State. Because here's the thing, Jim Harbaugh did 1087 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:41,279 Speaker 4: get penalized. He missed three games of consequence on their 1088 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,479 Speaker 4: run to winning it all. But forget that two years 1089 00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 4: ago he missed the game against Ohio State. That's not nothing. Huh, 1090 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 4: there was some punishment levied. I actually think that's pretty significant. 1091 00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 3: I'd agree Jim. 1092 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:56,920 Speaker 4: Harbaugh is as good as a coach as we think 1093 00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:58,799 Speaker 4: he is. Missing him for three of the biggest games 1094 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:00,799 Speaker 4: of the season is not nothing. Penn State was one 1095 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:01,480 Speaker 4: of them, right. 1096 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was. 1097 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,359 Speaker 2: And there's also the element of so if everything were 1098 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:09,000 Speaker 2: to be equal, I guess you should say Goodell should. 1099 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 3: Have a uniform rule how he handles this. 1100 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 2: It's kind of like the Ray Rice situation is basically 1101 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:16,600 Speaker 2: what changed the NFL's domestic violence policy, where at that 1102 00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:18,920 Speaker 2: point in time it was up to the commissioner's discretion 1103 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 2: based on facts and evidence. Now it's like, if you 1104 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:23,840 Speaker 2: are deemed to have violated the policy, you get an 1105 00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 2: automatic six games. It does not matter what the commissioner's 1106 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,040 Speaker 2: opinion is. So maybe there should be something if you're 1107 00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 2: going to do it this way, and I don't think 1108 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:31,440 Speaker 2: it should be by the way. And I'll tell you 1109 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,279 Speaker 2: in a second, why have a blanket rule? If you 1110 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 2: committed some sort of a fraction against the nc double 1111 00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 2: A while you were in college, whatever their penalty is levied, 1112 00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 2: we will do our own investigation of it. And we 1113 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:46,480 Speaker 2: have the right to levy a penalty as well, based 1114 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,840 Speaker 2: on whatever that infraction could have been. But my issue 1115 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:53,000 Speaker 2: with that is when would you ever, let's say you 1116 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 2: ran if you were a Google employee or something, and 1117 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 2: you ran a foul of some sort of code of 1118 00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 2: conduct rule or something. 1119 00:46:58,080 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 4: If I was a Google employee, I'd be above the end. 1120 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:03,719 Speaker 4: Roger Goodell would be He'd be chasing me down exactly. 1121 00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:06,359 Speaker 4: This competition is Google and Apple and they let you 1122 00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:08,840 Speaker 4: go or you walk away, resignation, whatever you want to 1123 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:12,000 Speaker 4: call it, and Apple hires you. You know, should Apple 1124 00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 4: suspend you because you left Google under bad pretenses? 1125 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:17,600 Speaker 2: No, that's not their obligation to do that. It's a 1126 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,480 Speaker 2: different entity in organization. If they choose to, I guess 1127 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 2: they could, But the fact that people are thinking, like 1128 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 2: Urban Myers statements, like they're almost under an obligation to 1129 00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 2: do it, I don't think the NFL is obligated to 1130 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:29,960 Speaker 2: do it, and personally I don't think they should. 1131 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 4: I think when Pete Carroll left USC around twenty ten 1132 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,719 Speaker 4: and the sanctions all came down and it was a 1133 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:43,200 Speaker 4: much stiffer fine penalty, it was punitive. 1134 00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,680 Speaker 2: Loss of national championships, loss of scholarships. They had an 1135 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:48,359 Speaker 2: undefeated season where they couldn't even play in the postseason, right, 1136 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:50,719 Speaker 2: just like Urban Meyer and Ohio State, by the way, 1137 00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:52,240 Speaker 2: and that's why he's so better. 1138 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,680 Speaker 4: He was affected by what happened with Jim Tressel back then. 1139 00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,000 Speaker 4: And also he was seven and zero against Jim Harbaugh, 1140 00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 4: the head Urban would have gotten the job if Jim Trussell, 1141 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:02,480 Speaker 4: wh hadn't gotten fired, So there's that part too. 1142 00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:04,560 Speaker 3: This is fair. Yeah, you can't have it both ways. 1143 00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:09,160 Speaker 4: But I don't love the idea of guys being able 1144 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:12,200 Speaker 4: to fly the coop kind. 1145 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 3: Of cut and run. 1146 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:16,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a bad look optics wise, to just get 1147 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:21,440 Speaker 4: away from facing any consequences by going to the level 1148 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:24,839 Speaker 4: up into the pros and college football's pros now too. 1149 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:28,319 Speaker 3: But yeah, and it always was. Really I don't love that. 1150 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:33,880 Speaker 4: I don't mind the idea of being able to suspend guys. 1151 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:38,319 Speaker 4: But I hear what you're saying. What legal recourse does 1152 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:42,000 Speaker 4: the NFL really have? Like if they tried that against 1153 00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:43,960 Speaker 4: Jim Harbaugh, you might be able to fight it and win. 1154 00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,480 Speaker 4: Do they want to be entangled in a legal case 1155 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:50,120 Speaker 4: with a head coach who, by the by the way, 1156 00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:53,480 Speaker 4: he's in year two now with the Chargers, it just 1157 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,799 Speaker 4: feels like, yes, it's unresolved. It feels like the end 1158 00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 4: of Poulter. Guys, they just get in the car and 1159 00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:01,400 Speaker 4: drive away. Feels like that with Michigan and some of 1160 00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,440 Speaker 4: the people who were there that committed the wrongdoing. They 1161 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:08,880 Speaker 4: got away scott free. But there's just no clean way 1162 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:12,440 Speaker 4: to do this either. It just it seems like everybody 1163 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 4: just kind of wants it to go away and they 1164 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:17,320 Speaker 4: don't want to obviously punish that people have had nothing 1165 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:18,719 Speaker 4: to do with it at the university. 1166 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 3: Now that's the main issue here with the NCAAA. 1167 00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:23,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, which I kind of applaud And again the NCAA 1168 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 2: is also saying the only reason they didn't levy harsh 1169 00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:29,560 Speaker 2: or penalties is because it's not as if Michigan didn't 1170 00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:32,680 Speaker 2: play with or they did play with ineligible players, so 1171 00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:35,480 Speaker 2: it'll be different. The Terrell prior situation because he got 1172 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:37,799 Speaker 2: these improper benefits stupid as it might have been at 1173 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:39,960 Speaker 2: the time, and even the Reggie Bush situation, Yeah, is 1174 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:43,080 Speaker 2: these are players who, if we knew about these things 1175 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:45,080 Speaker 2: that were happening, would not have been eligible to play. 1176 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 3: They wouldn't have been on the field, they couldn't have 1177 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:47,319 Speaker 3: affected things. 1178 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:49,840 Speaker 2: And again I go back to your acting like coaching 1179 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:52,640 Speaker 2: staff stealing signs is not affecting the products on the 1180 00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 2: field too. Now, you're right, the players might not be ineligible, 1181 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:57,080 Speaker 2: but they're getting information that they otherwise would not have. 1182 00:49:57,120 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 3: That's giving them an advantage over their opponents. 1183 00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:02,719 Speaker 4: To Urban, My point though, is where's the fairness here? 1184 00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:05,080 Speaker 4: The punishments aren't equal. Well, yeah, of course, it's like 1185 00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:07,319 Speaker 4: the truth is, though, if you're looking for equal or 1186 00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:10,759 Speaker 4: fair punishment in any form of life, forget sports. I mean, 1187 00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:14,040 Speaker 4: you're gonna have a tough time, especially because of how 1188 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:18,080 Speaker 4: different things are with the NCAA, which is basically toothless 1189 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 4: compared to where they were in twenty thirteen and the 1190 00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:25,200 Speaker 4: broad latitude they had to hand down punishment with it 1191 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 4: felt like they could do whatever they wanted. They were 1192 00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:32,800 Speaker 4: still operating under the guise of amateur sports. Everything's changed 1193 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,800 Speaker 4: now it's big business and it's right in front of 1194 00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:39,600 Speaker 4: us with nil. So it's not comparable to twenty thirteen. 1195 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:43,680 Speaker 3: Urban. I'm sorry, Yes, it's not fair. Life ain't fair. 1196 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:46,880 Speaker 4: Michigan fans are happy about this, and Ohio State fans 1197 00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:48,719 Speaker 4: are salty, and that's not gonna end. 1198 00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:52,040 Speaker 2: A great philosopher one said that fair is where a 1199 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:55,200 Speaker 2: pig gets a blue ribbon, Babe. 1200 00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:57,839 Speaker 4: Basically, yeah, do you give a ribbon to a pig. 1201 00:50:57,880 --> 00:50:59,960 Speaker 4: That's what fair is. That'll do, pig. 1202 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:02,000 Speaker 3: You know what's fair. 1203 00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:03,839 Speaker 2: We want to help you win your fantasy football league, 1204 00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:05,239 Speaker 2: fair and square, and I can only think of one 1205 00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:07,000 Speaker 2: way to do that, to bring on one of the 1206 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:10,560 Speaker 2: foremost experts in the fantasy football world, James Co joining 1207 00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:12,919 Speaker 2: us next here on Fox Sports Saturday, Kevin figures Adam 1208 00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:13,440 Speaker 2: Awson with you. 1209 00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:14,040 Speaker 3: Stick around. 1210 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 7: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 1211 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 7: the nation.

I feel 1254 00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:13,600 Speaker 4: like there's a player out there that's been getting revenge 1255 00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 4: on Kevin and I for a while, saying that he 1256 00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:17,240 Speaker 4: may be done soon. 1257 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:18,920 Speaker 3: And by soon, I meant. 1258 00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,439 Speaker 4: He was supposed to be cooked three or four years ago, 1259 00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:24,760 Speaker 4: and yet he's still going. How hig are you picking 1260 00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:28,000 Speaker 4: Derrick Henry because it just seems like he's an agelest 1261 00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:30,839 Speaker 4: wonder right now. I counted his days two years ago 1262 00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:31,360 Speaker 4: at least. 1263 00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,520 Speaker 5: No. First of all, you do that intro for Derek Kennry, Like, wait, 1264 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:36,719 Speaker 5: I thought we're talking Lebron. What's going on over here? 1265 00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:37,319 Speaker 3: I get it. 1266 00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:42,560 Speaker 5: No, Look, Dereck Henry's a Hall of Famer man. He's 1267 00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:45,000 Speaker 5: one of my favorite players of all time, and obviously 1268 00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:48,400 Speaker 5: he is truly one of he's like one of one man. 1269 00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:52,160 Speaker 5: He's a degenerational player. But yeah, this year I am 1270 00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:56,920 Speaker 5: not investing in Derrick Henry, mostly because listen, your listeners 1271 00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:58,839 Speaker 5: can google this man. But it's the curse of three 1272 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,399 Speaker 5: seventy and the basic is when a running back gets 1273 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:03,960 Speaker 5: three hundred and seventy or more touches in a season, 1274 00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:07,520 Speaker 5: the next year, they're a high injury risk and or 1275 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:12,759 Speaker 5: a risk for serious decline in efficiency in productivity. Two 1276 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:16,360 Speaker 5: times that this has happened to Derrick Henry, and both 1277 00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:18,319 Speaker 5: times he has suffered the curse of three seventy. One 1278 00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:20,919 Speaker 5: time he missed eight games and then the second time 1279 00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:23,960 Speaker 5: he saw twenty five percent reduction in overall yards. Right, 1280 00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:26,040 Speaker 5: so he's coming off of a three hundred and eighty 1281 00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:28,880 Speaker 5: plus touch season this year, I'm a little bit worried. 1282 00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:31,319 Speaker 5: We're talking about an older running back as well. We 1283 00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:34,239 Speaker 5: don't really like running backs past the age of twenty nine. He's, 1284 00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:37,200 Speaker 5: you know, again, at thirty one years old, coming off 1285 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:40,239 Speaker 5: of a high touch, high volume season. Derreck Henry, I 1286 00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:42,399 Speaker 5: love him, He's a Hall of Famer, but this year, 1287 00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:46,239 Speaker 5: considering cost at the end of the first round. I'm 1288 00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:47,240 Speaker 5: probably gonna. 1289 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:50,760 Speaker 2: Pass James co joining us here on Fox Sports Saturday, 1290 00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:52,799 Speaker 2: Kevin figures in Adam Auson with you. What about some 1291 00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:55,360 Speaker 2: of the other running backs specifically, I'll start with rookie 1292 00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:57,319 Speaker 2: because I know Ashtion Gentz is a guy that a 1293 00:54:57,320 --> 00:54:59,440 Speaker 2: lot of people love and people wont gaga over one 1294 00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:02,000 Speaker 2: highlight from last week where he ran over a forty 1295 00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:04,799 Speaker 2: nine or defender. What's your outlook when it comes to 1296 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:07,000 Speaker 2: Ashton Genzy and the kind of fantasy impact he could 1297 00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:07,920 Speaker 2: have this year as a rookie. 1298 00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:10,120 Speaker 5: Oh my god, I love Ashton gent First of all, 1299 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:14,520 Speaker 5: He's an absolute stud in a maniac I love. I 1300 00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 5: kind of wish Ship Kelly didn't make him change his stance, 1301 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 5: you know, like I love that crazy psychopath stance that 1302 00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:22,480 Speaker 5: he's got in the backfield anyways, But no, Look, he's 1303 00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:24,080 Speaker 5: playing for a coach that wants to run the pits 1304 00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:25,839 Speaker 5: out of the ball right in Pete Carroll. And he's 1305 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:28,400 Speaker 5: also playing for an offensive coordinator and Ship Kelly that 1306 00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:31,000 Speaker 5: knows how to get the maximum out of his running backs, right. 1307 00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:34,279 Speaker 5: So this has been this is a duo here in 1308 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:38,120 Speaker 5: terms of the coaching staff. There for Las Vegas. That man, 1309 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:41,120 Speaker 5: when you just start adding it all up, Gendy's got 1310 00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:45,200 Speaker 5: a real possibility to just be an absolutely special player, 1311 00:55:45,360 --> 00:55:48,719 Speaker 5: especially his rookie season. I would not be surprised if 1312 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:50,759 Speaker 5: he just comes out the gates and just gives you 1313 00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:54,080 Speaker 5: fifteen hundred and eighteen hundred yards, gives you twelve to 1314 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:57,719 Speaker 5: thirteen touchdowns as well. I love the setup for him. 1315 00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:01,080 Speaker 5: They revamped the offense, and it's not to me. It's 1316 00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:03,520 Speaker 5: an offense that is actually pretty good when you look 1317 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:06,920 Speaker 5: at it on paper. Overall, they made a huge quarterback upgrade. 1318 00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:09,640 Speaker 5: Their wide receivers got upgraded as well. They add an 1319 00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:12,400 Speaker 5: athletic wide receiver on the outside of Deontay Thorton. I 1320 00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:15,239 Speaker 5: love Jack Besh. I mean, shoot, you've got two tight 1321 00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 5: ends that can play as well, and Brock Bowers and 1322 00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:20,840 Speaker 5: Michael Meher. This team set up to succeed. Guys. The 1323 00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:25,400 Speaker 5: offense actually looks pretty good considering where this offense was 1324 00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:28,399 Speaker 5: at last year. I really like the Raiders. I think 1325 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:31,200 Speaker 5: they're going to surprise some folks. Obviously they're in the 1326 00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:35,040 Speaker 5: toughest division in football. But Jint's gonna have a huge 1327 00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 5: impact to me. When you talk about Pete Carroll and 1328 00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:41,160 Speaker 5: Chip Kelly having influence over the run game. 1329 00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:44,520 Speaker 4: Speaking of that division here, James who's getting the bulk 1330 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:47,359 Speaker 4: of the carries for the Denver Broncos. Some think RJ 1331 00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:50,040 Speaker 4: Harvey because steal carries from Dobbins. 1332 00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:51,120 Speaker 3: How are you feeling about that? 1333 00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:55,439 Speaker 5: I don't even consider Dobbins to be I just don't 1334 00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:58,239 Speaker 5: consider Dobbins at all. I know he had a good 1335 00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:01,040 Speaker 5: season last year on a play under Jim Harball, but 1336 00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:03,640 Speaker 5: I mean, at this point in his career, I think 1337 00:57:03,719 --> 00:57:06,520 Speaker 5: last year was a huge outlier in terms of health, 1338 00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:08,480 Speaker 5: not just for him, but just for the running back 1339 00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:13,560 Speaker 5: position in general. It was absolutely insane how no running 1340 00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:16,960 Speaker 5: backs really got hurt last year, and I think that's 1341 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:19,160 Speaker 5: going to be a huge outlier. We're just talking like, 1342 00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:22,040 Speaker 5: you know, thirty thousand feet in the sky. I really 1343 00:57:22,120 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 5: want to go zero RB this year in terms of 1344 00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 5: a draft strategy. And I know all the boomers out 1345 00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 5: there listening, fantasy boomers out there, like, you got to 1346 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:31,680 Speaker 5: take a running back early, bro, That's how you win 1347 00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:34,919 Speaker 5: a league, now, listen. I just think this year there's 1348 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:37,600 Speaker 5: going to be a return to the mean. I think 1349 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:39,800 Speaker 5: a lot more star running backs are going to get hurt. 1350 00:57:40,360 --> 00:57:42,440 Speaker 5: I think we're going to see a lot more movement 1351 00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:45,080 Speaker 5: in terms of you know, backup running backs getting some play. 1352 00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:48,680 Speaker 5: And it's funny. So now you talk about JK. Dobbins, 1353 00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 5: who's been one of the both injured running backs up 1354 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:55,320 Speaker 5: the last five years, and somehow, some way, this dude 1355 00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:59,000 Speaker 5: stays healthy last year, right Like he is truly the 1356 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:02,520 Speaker 5: encapsulation of what I'm talking about running back staying healthy 1357 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:06,439 Speaker 5: last year. So no, I'm not really considering him, mostly because, man, RJ. 1358 00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:10,920 Speaker 5: Harvey is the real deal. I charted him this offseason. 1359 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:13,080 Speaker 5: I charted a bunch of rookies as well. If you 1360 00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:15,600 Speaker 5: guys want to go find my Workpune Reception Perception or 1361 00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:18,200 Speaker 5: on my own personal side sleeper King football dot Com. 1362 00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:21,959 Speaker 5: Let just give a little shout out there Harvey to me, man, 1363 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 5: you know what, your baseball fan listeners will love this. 1364 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 5: I compared RJ. Harvey to he's the football version of 1365 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:33,320 Speaker 5: Adam Dunn, okay, because he hits a lot of home runs, 1366 00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:37,160 Speaker 5: but he also strikes out a ton as well. So 1367 00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:40,000 Speaker 5: from the running back position, guys, RJ. Harvey is the 1368 00:58:40,040 --> 00:58:41,920 Speaker 5: kind of player that's going to get you, that's going 1369 00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:44,800 Speaker 5: to get stuffed at the line a bunch, but man, 1370 00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:46,760 Speaker 5: if he breaks a tackle. 1371 00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:47,200 Speaker 7: He's gone. 1372 00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:50,760 Speaker 5: I mean, this guy has absolute home run ability. It 1373 00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:53,440 Speaker 5: just happens to be that his vision isn't the best 1374 00:58:53,480 --> 00:58:56,400 Speaker 5: and his tackle breaking is also not the best either. 1375 00:58:56,560 --> 00:59:00,000 Speaker 5: So he's a home runner, strikeout player. But I really 1376 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:00,760 Speaker 5: like RJ. 1377 00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:01,280 Speaker 3: Harvey. 1378 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:04,360 Speaker 5: I think Sean Payton's gonna get the absolute most out 1379 00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:07,240 Speaker 5: of him. For sure. He should be a priority in 1380 00:59:07,280 --> 00:59:09,200 Speaker 5: the middle rounds when you're taking a look at running back. 1381 00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:12,520 Speaker 2: James Co, fantasy football expert for Roder Wire, joining us 1382 00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:13,720 Speaker 2: here on Fox Sports Saturday. 1383 00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:15,720 Speaker 3: Kevin Figures and Adam Austen with you guys. 1384 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:18,080 Speaker 2: So since we're talking running backs, we'll go to the 1385 00:59:18,160 --> 00:59:20,800 Speaker 2: top few picks of the draft because I think Jamar Chase, 1386 00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:23,120 Speaker 2: based on a lot of rankings, is kind of the 1387 00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:25,280 Speaker 2: number one overall guy regardless of position. If you have 1388 00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:27,840 Speaker 2: the top pick, most people believe you take Jamar Chase, 1389 00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:29,280 Speaker 2: and then it kind of gets a little murky if 1390 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:31,240 Speaker 2: you're talking about Saquon Barkley, who had a great. 1391 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:31,760 Speaker 3: Year last year. 1392 00:59:31,880 --> 00:59:34,040 Speaker 2: If these are Robinson obviously high up there for a 1393 00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:36,880 Speaker 2: lot of people on the board. Justin Jefferson obviously had 1394 00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:39,520 Speaker 2: great talent, but there's an unknown at the quarterback position 1395 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:43,160 Speaker 2: there with essentially a rookie and McCarthy being his quarterback. 1396 00:59:43,240 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 2: So as far as how the top five or so 1397 00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:48,160 Speaker 2: picks go in terms of receivers and running backs, how 1398 00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 2: does that stack up for you? 1399 00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:49,680 Speaker 4: James? 1400 00:59:50,320 --> 00:59:53,320 Speaker 5: I know that Saquon Barkley Again, I just feel so 1401 00:59:53,440 --> 00:59:55,680 Speaker 5: bad because I love Saquon Barkley. He's one of my 1402 00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:58,560 Speaker 5: favorite players of all time. You know, he wasted a 1403 00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:00,200 Speaker 5: couple of years there in New York as they were 1404 01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:01,880 Speaker 5: trying to figure out their stuff, and wow, I can't 1405 01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:04,280 Speaker 5: believe New York is I mean, bro, they get this 1406 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 5: is what's so crazy. They gave Darius Slayton the contract 1407 01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:09,360 Speaker 5: that Saquon Barkley wanted. 1408 01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:11,320 Speaker 13: Bro, are you serious right now? 1409 01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:14,280 Speaker 5: Come on, guys, like, what do you guys do? Anyways, So, again, 1410 01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:17,360 Speaker 5: I love Sakuon Barkley, but I just talked about the 1411 01:00:17,400 --> 01:00:20,680 Speaker 5: Curse of three seventy with Derek Henry. Bro sakwon Barkley 1412 01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:26,240 Speaker 5: last year had four hundred and eighty two touches last year. Again, 1413 01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:28,959 Speaker 5: and then again, I'm dovetailing back into my conversation about 1414 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:32,160 Speaker 5: running back staying healthy. Sakuon Barkley, as much as I 1415 01:00:32,240 --> 01:00:34,560 Speaker 5: love the guy, has dealt with a lot of injuries 1416 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:39,200 Speaker 5: in his career, and yet somehow, someway, this dude stayed 1417 01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:42,480 Speaker 5: healthy pretty much all season long last year despite the 1418 01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 5: heavy workload. Again, if I truly believe that we're coming, 1419 01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:48,240 Speaker 5: we're going to go back to the norm here and 1420 01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:50,720 Speaker 5: back to the mean, I think Sakuon Barkley is at 1421 01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:52,200 Speaker 5: the forefront of that idea. 1422 01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:52,520 Speaker 12: Right. 1423 01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:55,480 Speaker 5: So I just think that Saquon Barkley is either going 1424 01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:59,680 Speaker 5: to see a breakdown in health and or efficiency. Overall, 1425 01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:03,440 Speaker 5: I'm not investing in him as a top two player 1426 01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:06,880 Speaker 5: and I could absolutely be wrong. And let me just 1427 01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:08,560 Speaker 5: say this, let me get this out the cuff, man, Like, 1428 01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 5: if I'm wrong, you know what, I'll happily eat that. 1429 01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:13,680 Speaker 5: You know why, because that means we got seventeen games 1430 01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:16,280 Speaker 5: at Saquon Barkley, right, And like, to me, that's more 1431 01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:18,880 Speaker 5: important than just being right, you know. Like I'd rather 1432 01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:21,360 Speaker 5: just say I'd rather just as a fan, rather see 1433 01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:25,040 Speaker 5: seventeen games at Saquon Barkley. That's good football, man, you know. 1434 01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:27,640 Speaker 5: But I just think, again, when we're talking about fantasy football, 1435 01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:30,640 Speaker 5: I'm not investing a top two pick in Saquon because 1436 01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:34,000 Speaker 5: I do think the injury risk is extraordinarily high. If 1437 01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:37,240 Speaker 5: we're talking top five here and you want to go 1438 01:01:37,320 --> 01:01:39,840 Speaker 5: running back, you know, go ahead and give me Jamir Gibbs. 1439 01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:41,919 Speaker 5: I think he's going to go. I think he's gonna 1440 01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 5: go ham Sandwich, right like Ben Johnson is gone. There's 1441 01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:48,520 Speaker 5: no guarantees that David Montgomery continues to see a fifty 1442 01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:52,080 Speaker 5: percent workload. Again, it's it was pretty much a fifty 1443 01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:55,200 Speaker 5: to fifty backfield there, and Kamir Gibbs was still the 1444 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:58,600 Speaker 5: RB one last year. Like, let's just think about that, 1445 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:01,200 Speaker 5: Like what happens if he sees sixty five percent of 1446 01:02:01,240 --> 01:02:03,720 Speaker 5: the touches, which is absolutely possible. I think I could 1447 01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:07,880 Speaker 5: absolutely crush and go crazy. I think Jon Robinson should 1448 01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:11,479 Speaker 5: also be in consideration as a top three pick as well. Again, 1449 01:02:11,520 --> 01:02:13,800 Speaker 5: another player that has got great hands. When you're talking 1450 01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:16,320 Speaker 5: about PPR formats man, like, this guy's gonna absolutely get 1451 01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:18,240 Speaker 5: the work, and he got a lot of work last 1452 01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:20,880 Speaker 5: year too, So I think those you know, when you're 1453 01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:24,040 Speaker 5: talking about running backs, I do like Boujon and I 1454 01:02:24,080 --> 01:02:25,800 Speaker 5: definitely like Jamiir Gibbs as well. 1455 01:02:26,160 --> 01:02:29,320 Speaker 4: Fantasy football expert James Coe is our guest here on 1456 01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:33,720 Speaker 4: the FNA on FSR show. So James, let's take things 1457 01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:36,680 Speaker 4: the other way. Then somebody who couldn't stay healthy last 1458 01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:39,960 Speaker 4: season would be Christian McCaffrey. Can he have a bounce 1459 01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:42,440 Speaker 4: back year or his best years behind him? 1460 01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:45,520 Speaker 5: No? I mean, this is what's crazy. The conversation about 1461 01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:49,360 Speaker 5: Christian McCaffrey is like it's like having any conversation. 1462 01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:52,320 Speaker 3: About his lore, about like about. 1463 01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:56,320 Speaker 5: Like legacy, like oh you know, I'm like, oh you 1464 01:02:56,360 --> 01:03:00,880 Speaker 5: remember cemc twenty twenty three, y'all. It's like, hey, yeah, right, 1465 01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:03,520 Speaker 5: But I mean we're playing at twenty twenty five, my guy, 1466 01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:05,360 Speaker 5: Like what are we doing out here? Like I don't 1467 01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:08,880 Speaker 5: I don't understand, Like he's a he's a you know, 1468 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:12,520 Speaker 5: a universally accepted top twelve player, and it just I 1469 01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:14,960 Speaker 5: don't get it, Like I just don't understand. This is 1470 01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:18,600 Speaker 5: a player that again is coming off of multiple lower 1471 01:03:18,760 --> 01:03:21,320 Speaker 5: you know, body injuries. He had the Achilles thing, which 1472 01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:24,080 Speaker 5: I don't think. I'm not a doctor, but does that 1473 01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:26,560 Speaker 5: just like go away all of a sudden, Like I 1474 01:03:26,560 --> 01:03:30,160 Speaker 5: don't think it does, Like I think the Achilles is Yeah, 1475 01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:33,320 Speaker 5: it's still very much a concern. And then again, he 1476 01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:38,080 Speaker 5: suffered a season ending knee injury last year. Guys, right, 1477 01:03:38,520 --> 01:03:42,160 Speaker 5: and yet we're talking about him at the age of 1478 01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:46,440 Speaker 5: twenty nine like he's going to bounce back and you know, 1479 01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:48,240 Speaker 5: like it's not going to be a big thing. Like 1480 01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:52,080 Speaker 5: for me, I just don't understand twenty nine year old 1481 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:55,480 Speaker 5: running backs coming off of multiple lower body injuries, one 1482 01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:57,840 Speaker 5: of them is a season ending knee injury. They just 1483 01:03:57,880 --> 01:04:01,240 Speaker 5: don't bounce back, you know, Like so from me again, 1484 01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:04,840 Speaker 5: given the price, Now, I'm not absolutely he's absolutely not 1485 01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:07,320 Speaker 5: on my draft list. He's on my donot draft list 1486 01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:10,560 Speaker 5: for sure as a top twelve player. Like if he 1487 01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:13,960 Speaker 5: dropped down to like twenty five or thirty, yeah, sure, 1488 01:04:14,200 --> 01:04:16,880 Speaker 5: let me take a stab at that. But I just 1489 01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:20,000 Speaker 5: don't see it. I don't. I just do not understand 1490 01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:23,520 Speaker 5: how he can be the dominant force that he was 1491 01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:26,960 Speaker 5: in twenty twenty three coming off of those injuries. And 1492 01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:29,560 Speaker 5: can I also say this, I think we're just kind 1493 01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:32,400 Speaker 5: of sort of like I don't know, YadA YadA. In 1494 01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:36,960 Speaker 5: the San Francisco offense in general, Brandon AUT's not Juwan 1495 01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:41,680 Speaker 5: Jennings hasn't practiced. Guys like Deebo Samuels across the coast, 1496 01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:45,440 Speaker 5: Like what are we talking about right now? Like CMC 1497 01:04:45,520 --> 01:04:49,520 Speaker 5: is still recovering, Like the offense could legitimately be trash. 1498 01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:52,080 Speaker 5: I mean, I love Rockie Pearsol because he's going to 1499 01:04:52,120 --> 01:04:56,000 Speaker 5: see a ton of work, But I mean, again, what 1500 01:04:56,040 --> 01:04:58,000 Speaker 5: does rock Perty look like when he's not playing with 1501 01:04:58,040 --> 01:05:02,360 Speaker 5: the Avengers bro I mean that's a big question mark. 1502 01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:05,560 Speaker 5: Like I love George Kittle too, but again, I think 1503 01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:08,400 Speaker 5: brock Perty made some strides last year, but I don't 1504 01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:11,960 Speaker 5: think anyone is considering brock Purty to be, you know, 1505 01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:15,400 Speaker 5: like a top five or top seven talent in the NFL. 1506 01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:18,919 Speaker 5: So I'm confused. I think San Francisco, there's a lot 1507 01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:22,400 Speaker 5: of ways this can go south. And in relation to CMC, 1508 01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:24,600 Speaker 5: if it's not a good offense with then what are 1509 01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:27,520 Speaker 5: we really talking about here right when it's the most 1510 01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:29,640 Speaker 5: efficient offense in the NFL. Yeah, sure, one hundred percent. 1511 01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:32,480 Speaker 5: This guy's got twenty touchdown upside. It's not he just 1512 01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:35,560 Speaker 5: doesn't have that upside anymore. So I don't understand why 1513 01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:37,640 Speaker 5: we're risking it for a top twelve selection. 1514 01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:40,040 Speaker 2: Let's go to what tight ends next there, James, I 1515 01:05:40,040 --> 01:05:41,800 Speaker 2: know a lot of people feel that in year two, 1516 01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:45,480 Speaker 2: Rock Bauer's probably already the best at least receiving tight 1517 01:05:45,560 --> 01:05:47,160 Speaker 2: end in the NFL, and now he's going to have 1518 01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:49,240 Speaker 2: an actual quarterback throwing him the ball on a weekend 1519 01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:52,120 Speaker 2: week out basis, I personally was burned by taking Sam 1520 01:05:52,200 --> 01:05:54,720 Speaker 2: Laporte a little earlier than I probably should have last year. 1521 01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:56,920 Speaker 2: But I was banking on him doubling up what he 1522 01:05:56,960 --> 01:05:59,080 Speaker 2: did from his rookie season and he kind of fell off. 1523 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:00,440 Speaker 3: A little bit and had some injury issues. 1524 01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:03,800 Speaker 4: Just the overall tight end landscape, you know who the 1525 01:06:03,840 --> 01:06:05,760 Speaker 4: best one is, where do you end up taking them second, 1526 01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:07,960 Speaker 4: third round? How do you see the tight end market 1527 01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:10,160 Speaker 4: shake it out? From a fantasy standpoint? 1528 01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:13,080 Speaker 5: So I love that you brought up Brock Balers, because yes, 1529 01:06:13,160 --> 01:06:16,920 Speaker 5: he is absolutely, you know, if not the best. He's 1530 01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:19,600 Speaker 5: in the top two in terms of pass catching tight ends. 1531 01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:23,080 Speaker 5: But him going in the top fifteen picks right now 1532 01:06:23,160 --> 01:06:26,160 Speaker 5: is absolutely bonkers and insane and just I think people 1533 01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:29,080 Speaker 5: are just not paying attention. I just talked about how 1534 01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:34,480 Speaker 5: the Las Vegas Raiders completely revamped their offensive, you know, structure, right, 1535 01:06:34,560 --> 01:06:35,960 Speaker 5: They add a quarterback, which is great. 1536 01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:36,400 Speaker 3: I love it. 1537 01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:37,240 Speaker 5: It's going to be more. 1538 01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:38,160 Speaker 13: Efficient, for sure. 1539 01:06:38,560 --> 01:06:40,760 Speaker 5: But this guy was just a straight up volume monster 1540 01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:44,120 Speaker 5: last year. Right, and again they add Jack Bash, they 1541 01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:47,439 Speaker 5: add Ashton Genty right like okay, and they're already talking 1542 01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:50,920 Speaker 5: about it's going to be twelve personnel with Michael Mayer. Okay, Well, 1543 01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:55,200 Speaker 5: we're starting to lose some targets now. Again, I just 1544 01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:58,840 Speaker 5: don't see how he maintained the volume that he had 1545 01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:02,280 Speaker 5: last year, Like, how does he Someone needs to explain 1546 01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:04,040 Speaker 5: to me. How does he do it? How does he 1547 01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:07,760 Speaker 5: go about seeing you know, one hundred and fifty targets 1548 01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:09,680 Speaker 5: or whatever it was that he saw last year. That's 1549 01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:12,720 Speaker 5: insane to me. That just doesn't happen. I wants your 1550 01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:16,400 Speaker 5: name is Travis kelce That just doesn't happen. I mean again, 1551 01:07:17,640 --> 01:07:21,200 Speaker 5: I love Rock Bowers, See's not Travis Kelcey. You know, like, 1552 01:07:21,680 --> 01:07:23,840 Speaker 5: let's be real here, you know, like Brock Bowers is good, 1553 01:07:23,880 --> 01:07:26,240 Speaker 5: He's just not Travis Kelcey, man. Like, so I don't know. 1554 01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:29,520 Speaker 5: For him to go in the top fifteen is absolutely 1555 01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:33,520 Speaker 5: bonkers to me and just completely ignores the offensive landscape 1556 01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:36,600 Speaker 5: that they have in Las Vegas. But when we're talking 1557 01:07:36,600 --> 01:07:38,280 Speaker 5: about a true tight end one it's got to be 1558 01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:41,520 Speaker 5: Trade McBride. You know, again, he's already has a built 1559 01:07:41,520 --> 01:07:44,080 Speaker 5: in chemistry. He's already you know, one of the top 1560 01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:47,200 Speaker 5: guys at the position period. You're getting a little bit 1561 01:07:47,200 --> 01:07:49,800 Speaker 5: of a discount on him because again people are over 1562 01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:52,880 Speaker 5: spending for brock Bowers. Trade McBride's going later. If you 1563 01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:55,000 Speaker 5: want to spend at tight end, go ahead and get 1564 01:07:55,040 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 5: Trey McBride. And I think George Kittle, Samuela Porta, TJ. 1565 01:07:58,160 --> 01:08:01,040 Speaker 5: Hokinson are kind of sort of in that group of 1566 01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:04,920 Speaker 5: the next guys up. It's Trey McBride won clearly for me. 1567 01:08:05,400 --> 01:08:07,480 Speaker 5: Brock Bowers and the rest of those guys that I 1568 01:08:07,560 --> 01:08:10,720 Speaker 5: just mentioned are in the next tier down. And man, 1569 01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:12,760 Speaker 5: I would just say this, let me give some fantasy 1570 01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:16,439 Speaker 5: advice for the folks out there. You've probably heard of 1571 01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:19,280 Speaker 5: like you know, dead zone running backs. These are running 1572 01:08:19,280 --> 01:08:21,439 Speaker 5: backs that you take in the middle rounds, like anywhere 1573 01:08:21,439 --> 01:08:24,360 Speaker 5: between rounds four to eight, and people generally say you 1574 01:08:24,360 --> 01:08:26,880 Speaker 5: should avoid that because there's a lot of turnover in 1575 01:08:26,880 --> 01:08:30,599 Speaker 5: those running backs. There's just you know, inefficiencies in that area. 1576 01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:32,720 Speaker 5: I would say the exact same thing for the tight 1577 01:08:32,800 --> 01:08:36,240 Speaker 5: end position. You really want to avoid all of these 1578 01:08:36,360 --> 01:08:39,920 Speaker 5: mid round tight ends, like the David and Joku's David, 1579 01:08:40,160 --> 01:08:42,920 Speaker 5: the Evan Ingram's of the world, the John hus Smith's, 1580 01:08:43,120 --> 01:08:46,160 Speaker 5: like Dalton Kincaid, Like. I don't want any of those 1581 01:08:46,200 --> 01:08:49,519 Speaker 5: guys because I think the guys at the bottom of 1582 01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:52,559 Speaker 5: the draft board at tight end are gonna be, I mean, 1583 01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:57,000 Speaker 5: just as good as some of these guys, if not better. 1584 01:08:57,200 --> 01:09:00,000 Speaker 5: And if we're taking a look at late round tight end, 1585 01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:05,120 Speaker 5: why can't Kyle Pits, Yo, why can't Kyle Pits be 1586 01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:07,880 Speaker 5: a little something something? He's a tight end fifteen right now? 1587 01:09:07,920 --> 01:09:09,840 Speaker 5: He's going so late, he's going outside the top, you know, 1588 01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:12,640 Speaker 5: one hundred and twenty five picks. Man. Again, we're not 1589 01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:15,400 Speaker 5: investing a third round pick like we were in the past. 1590 01:09:15,720 --> 01:09:18,080 Speaker 5: Kyle Pitts is going so late. I actually think that 1591 01:09:18,120 --> 01:09:21,840 Speaker 5: he's of value. Now. We've gone from overvalue to undervalued 1592 01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:24,160 Speaker 5: on Kyle Pitts, and I really like taking a stab 1593 01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:25,320 Speaker 5: at him later in the draft. 1594 01:09:25,760 --> 01:09:28,000 Speaker 4: So we're not going to have the sleeper king on 1595 01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:30,600 Speaker 4: without asking for some guys who are definitely on the 1596 01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:34,080 Speaker 4: ambient and in hibernation right now. Give us a couple 1597 01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:36,160 Speaker 4: of guys that people could use to help win on 1598 01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:37,759 Speaker 4: the margins and maybe win their league. 1599 01:09:37,760 --> 01:09:41,400 Speaker 5: Here, James, Okay, so again, you know I'm laying out 1600 01:09:41,400 --> 01:09:43,800 Speaker 5: some dudes here. I really like Jordan Mason. He's the 1601 01:09:43,880 --> 01:09:46,080 Speaker 5: RB thirty five right now. He's going outside the top 1602 01:09:46,120 --> 01:09:49,479 Speaker 5: one hundred and ten picks. Aaron Jones is again getting 1603 01:09:49,520 --> 01:09:51,200 Speaker 5: a little bit longer in the twos. He's going to 1604 01:09:51,280 --> 01:09:55,200 Speaker 5: his age thirty one season again. A guy who has 1605 01:09:55,280 --> 01:09:59,040 Speaker 5: dealt with injury throughout his career but somehow somewhat played 1606 01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:01,840 Speaker 5: a career high seventeen games last year and had a 1607 01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:04,639 Speaker 5: career high three hundred and six touches. Guys, He's coming 1608 01:10:04,640 --> 01:10:07,120 Speaker 5: back down, man, it is coming back down. Jordan Mason 1609 01:10:07,439 --> 01:10:10,000 Speaker 5: is going to run in that koc system really really well. 1610 01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:12,960 Speaker 5: I really like him as a late round running back. 1611 01:10:13,200 --> 01:10:15,720 Speaker 5: If there's another player I'm really looking at, it might 1612 01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:18,559 Speaker 5: be Trey Benson. He's the RB forty seven. He's going 1613 01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:21,320 Speaker 5: outside the top one fifty again. He has another player 1614 01:10:21,360 --> 01:10:24,000 Speaker 5: in front of him, James Connor, who somehow some way 1615 01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:27,400 Speaker 5: stayed healthy, which is just bonkers. James Connor has dealt 1616 01:10:27,400 --> 01:10:29,760 Speaker 5: with so many injuries throughout his career. He's thirty years 1617 01:10:29,800 --> 01:10:32,200 Speaker 5: old now, and I do think that he's going to 1618 01:10:32,280 --> 01:10:35,240 Speaker 5: have some injury issues and some inefficiency issues as well. 1619 01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:39,040 Speaker 5: Trey Benson a tremendous athlete. Two hundred and fifteen pounds, 1620 01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:44,360 Speaker 5: he ran a four three ninety. In regards to wide receivers, Dude, 1621 01:10:44,920 --> 01:10:47,320 Speaker 5: I just I find myself if I don't leave my 1622 01:10:47,479 --> 01:10:50,400 Speaker 5: draft with either Ricky Piersoll or Romo Dunze, I'm pissed. 1623 01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:53,200 Speaker 5: You know, these two guys have a real chance to 1624 01:10:53,240 --> 01:10:57,000 Speaker 5: break through in year number two A Mecca Abuca, Oh 1625 01:10:57,040 --> 01:10:59,559 Speaker 5: my god, he's flying up draft boards right now. But 1626 01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:02,599 Speaker 5: still I think he's in that sleeper range. I think 1627 01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:05,639 Speaker 5: he's gonna have an absolute banger of a first six 1628 01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:07,960 Speaker 5: weeks to the season. We'll see how long it takes 1629 01:11:08,040 --> 01:11:10,040 Speaker 5: Chris Godwin to come back. But to Mecca Book, I 1630 01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:13,439 Speaker 5: love this kid out of Ohio State. Definitely reached for him. 1631 01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:16,280 Speaker 5: Once you get into the ninth round here and then 1632 01:11:16,320 --> 01:11:22,200 Speaker 5: at quarterback man Trevor Lawrence, people have the hate has 1633 01:11:22,280 --> 01:11:23,080 Speaker 5: gone too. 1634 01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:23,759 Speaker 1: Far, y'all. 1635 01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:27,240 Speaker 5: You know, like, is he the best quarterback prospect since 1636 01:11:27,280 --> 01:11:30,799 Speaker 5: Andrew Locke? No, obviously not, But why are we double 1637 01:11:30,920 --> 01:11:34,519 Speaker 5: telling me that now and saying he's trash Like That's 1638 01:11:34,560 --> 01:11:37,360 Speaker 5: what drives me crazy.

Okay, this is the 1766 01:17:20,160 --> 01:17:23,000 Speaker 4: best thing that has happened for the Alien franchise since 1767 01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:27,240 Speaker 4: Aliens in nineteen eighty six, or maybe David Fincher's Alien 1768 01:17:27,360 --> 01:17:29,080 Speaker 4: three Special Edition version. 1769 01:17:29,240 --> 01:17:31,720 Speaker 3: I've lost count Yeah.

Why not? 1775 01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:43,679 Speaker 4: Most of the time, Yes, the legacy sequels are bad. 1776 01:17:44,280 --> 01:17:47,479 Speaker 4: The TV shows based off of movies are bad. But 1777 01:17:48,040 --> 01:17:53,000 Speaker 4: the guy who's adapting the movies to television here is 1778 01:17:53,080 --> 01:17:56,120 Speaker 4: the showrunner for Fargo, so he's already done it, which 1779 01:17:56,280 --> 01:17:59,400 Speaker 4: praised with the Coen Brothers movie Fargo that turned into 1780 01:17:59,439 --> 01:18:03,360 Speaker 4: a great sea that's on FX, just like Alien Earth. 1781 01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:05,840 Speaker 4: Now he just has to adapt the old Alien movies 1782 01:18:05,880 --> 01:18:07,760 Speaker 4: into this, and he's doing a great job so far. 1783 01:18:07,840 --> 01:18:10,960 Speaker 4: Alien Earth is incredible. Like I'm three episodes in and 1784 01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:13,400 Speaker 4: I'm already saying game over, man, It's game over, but 1785 01:18:13,560 --> 01:18:16,960 Speaker 4: in a good way. Like Kenny Smith after Vince Carter 1786 01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:19,960 Speaker 4: had that big dunk in the Dunk Contest in two 1787 01:18:20,040 --> 01:18:24,120 Speaker 4: thousand and was saying, let's go home, Superman. 1788 01:18:25,160 --> 01:18:30,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's over, ladies and gentlemen. Like this show is here. 1789 01:18:30,600 --> 01:18:31,519 Speaker 3: It is that good. 1790 01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:36,080 Speaker 4: The tone is perfect. It feels like the successor to 1791 01:18:36,240 --> 01:18:41,280 Speaker 4: Ridley Scott's and James Cameron's interpretations of aliens, Alien and 1792 01:18:41,360 --> 01:18:46,160 Speaker 4: Aliens respectively. They did those two movies great directors. Now 1793 01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:50,760 Speaker 4: there's some interesting plot lines. There's cyborgs in it, there's synthetics, 1794 01:18:50,840 --> 01:18:53,479 Speaker 4: there's hybrids. It focuses and opens up the world a 1795 01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:56,519 Speaker 4: little bit more so. It's not just aliens because you 1796 01:18:56,600 --> 01:19:00,840 Speaker 4: know they gotta fill ten episodes a season. There's hybrid aliens, well, 1797 01:19:00,960 --> 01:19:04,400 Speaker 4: hybrid people, hybrid people. It's it's complicated. 1798 01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:07,640 Speaker 3: So those half alien half people, I mean that was 1799 01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:09,640 Speaker 3: an alien resurrection. 1800 01:19:11,400 --> 01:19:15,200 Speaker 4: A rider and the basketball scene with Sigourney Weaver where 1801 01:19:15,200 --> 01:19:17,479 Speaker 4: she really makes that shot where she throws it behind her. 1802 01:19:17,680 --> 01:19:20,040 Speaker 3: You're right, there have been a lot of different. 1803 01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:23,360 Speaker 4: This is the one that's going to work though, Alien Earths, 1804 01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:28,120 Speaker 4: the TV version is going to work. They're exploring deep 1805 01:19:28,200 --> 01:19:31,680 Speaker 4: philosophical questions like what it means to be human, all 1806 01:19:31,760 --> 01:19:36,000 Speaker 4: while having aesthetically pleasing action scenes with the Xeno Morph 1807 01:19:36,120 --> 01:19:38,880 Speaker 4: going maximum carnage on a bunch of soldiers. 1808 01:19:39,600 --> 01:19:43,280 Speaker 3: Yes, hide the women and children from this FX show. 1809 01:19:44,760 --> 01:19:46,920 Speaker 4: It is. It is. I don't know if it's raded 1810 01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:49,240 Speaker 4: R how they do TV ratings, but you know it's 1811 01:19:49,280 --> 01:19:51,439 Speaker 4: on FX for a reason. I'm excited for this show. 1812 01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:55,160 Speaker 4: We're three episodes in. I want you guys to watch along, 1813 01:19:56,240 --> 01:19:58,920 Speaker 4: so more people are checking it out, and the ratings 1814 01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:01,160 Speaker 4: boost happens and there's a big spike and we get 1815 01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:03,840 Speaker 4: a season two. Because I think this could be Dare 1816 01:20:03,880 --> 01:20:06,800 Speaker 4: I say the next epic like Game of Thrones? 1817 01:20:06,800 --> 01:20:09,160 Speaker 2: Sounds like that zombie show that was on forever that 1818 01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:11,240 Speaker 2: people got tired of and they adapted it for TV. 1819 01:20:11,360 --> 01:20:13,680 Speaker 3: But instead of zombies, it's Aliens the Walking Dead. 1820 01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:17,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, that one, okay, Now, that had a couple good 1821 01:20:17,040 --> 01:20:18,920 Speaker 4: seasons and then fell off quickly. 1822 01:20:19,080 --> 01:20:20,439 Speaker 3: This will not, I promise Kevin. 1823 01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:23,439 Speaker 2: Speaking of falling off quickly, we'll talk about some athletes 1824 01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:25,599 Speaker 2: who add to have a resurrection On Fox Sports Radio. 1825 01:20:26,800 --> 01:20:29,479 Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 1826 01:20:29,800 --> 01:20:30,840 Speaker 3: That's right, find a lot. 1827 01:20:30,880 --> 01:20:33,240 Speaker 2: We're a Fox Sports Saturday with Kevin Figures and Adam 1828 01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:36,280 Speaker 2: Austin here on FSSR.

We will 1835 01:20:55,120 --> 01:20:58,040 Speaker 4: count you down to all of the biggest games. Tune 1836 01:20:58,160 --> 01:21:01,160 Speaker 4: in to count Down presented by Bette every Saturday and 1837 01:21:01,200 --> 01:21:04,040 Speaker 4: Sunday morning right here on Fox Sports Radio and the 1838 01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:05,800 Speaker 4: iHeartRadio app. 1839 01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:07,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of big games, it is week zero of 1840 01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:10,200 Speaker 2: the college football season coming up just a few hours 1841 01:21:10,240 --> 01:21:12,880 Speaker 2: from now, so we will get into that this hour, 1842 01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:16,519 Speaker 2: huge game in the Big twelve across the pond in Ireland, 1843 01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:19,080 Speaker 2: So we'll talk about that coming up in a little bit. 1844 01:21:19,360 --> 01:21:21,680 Speaker 2: But this is an interesting thing that Adam and I 1845 01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:24,840 Speaker 2: were discussing a little bit earlier on Friday, when it 1846 01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:30,120 Speaker 2: comes to players and athletes who for whatever reason don't 1847 01:21:30,120 --> 01:21:33,360 Speaker 2: necessarily succeed in their first stop. It could be injuries, 1848 01:21:33,479 --> 01:21:36,800 Speaker 2: it could be other circumstances, and we wonder whether or 1849 01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:38,400 Speaker 2: not there are some athletes who just don't get a 1850 01:21:38,479 --> 01:21:41,040 Speaker 2: fair shot and then all of a sudden, the circumstances 1851 01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:43,400 Speaker 2: follow their way. You know, lo behold, they end up 1852 01:21:43,439 --> 01:21:46,080 Speaker 2: having a pretty damn good career when it's all said 1853 01:21:46,080 --> 01:21:46,400 Speaker 2: and done. 1854 01:21:46,479 --> 01:21:49,080 Speaker 4: You know, our friend Petro's Papadakis likes to say football 1855 01:21:49,400 --> 01:21:55,280 Speaker 4: is often circumstantial. I would say sports in general apply there, 1856 01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:58,000 Speaker 4: like it matters who you go to, what team you 1857 01:21:58,240 --> 01:22:00,760 Speaker 4: end up on, the opportunity you're going to get, the 1858 01:22:00,840 --> 01:22:04,360 Speaker 4: reps you're going to get out there. So a lot 1859 01:22:04,439 --> 01:22:06,760 Speaker 4: of this comes down to right place, right time. 1860 01:22:07,080 --> 01:22:08,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, it really does. It really does. 1861 01:22:09,080 --> 01:22:14,600 Speaker 4: Like going no Breebery was bringing this topic up initially 1862 01:22:15,360 --> 01:22:19,000 Speaker 4: because what we've seen with Baker Mayfield, this is somebody 1863 01:22:19,080 --> 01:22:22,640 Speaker 4: that was going to be a perennial backup after what 1864 01:22:22,800 --> 01:22:25,519 Speaker 4: happened with the Cleveland Browns, and I felt like he 1865 01:22:25,600 --> 01:22:27,519 Speaker 4: kind of got a raw deal there. And then applies 1866 01:22:27,600 --> 01:22:29,920 Speaker 4: to this theme because he helped them get to the 1867 01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:33,120 Speaker 4: playoffs and win their first playloff game since what the 1868 01:22:33,240 --> 01:22:36,280 Speaker 4: early nineties with Bill Belichick, Like he was that. 1869 01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:40,400 Speaker 3: Good for them, they let him go. He bounces around. 1870 01:22:40,600 --> 01:22:43,920 Speaker 4: The Carolina Panthers passed on him even though he made 1871 01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:46,680 Speaker 4: some good passes for them. And now he's what a 1872 01:22:46,760 --> 01:22:49,400 Speaker 4: two time Pro Bowler with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and 1873 01:22:49,439 --> 01:22:50,920 Speaker 4: one of the best quarterbacks in the league. 1874 01:22:51,240 --> 01:22:53,479 Speaker 2: Lest we forget him beating the Raiders after being with 1875 01:22:53,560 --> 01:22:54,880 Speaker 2: the Rams for about three days. 1876 01:22:56,080 --> 01:22:59,200 Speaker 3: I'll never forget that one. I remember that very vividly. 1877 01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:03,920 Speaker 4: Some guys regain an elite status as he had coming 1878 01:23:03,960 --> 01:23:04,800 Speaker 4: out of Oklahoma. 1879 01:23:05,040 --> 01:23:06,280 Speaker 3: Yes, he's got it back. 1880 01:23:06,400 --> 01:23:09,439 Speaker 4: Now he is a made man in the NFL. He 1881 01:23:09,600 --> 01:23:12,200 Speaker 4: has his own team. They're the favors to win their 1882 01:23:12,240 --> 01:23:14,759 Speaker 4: division again. Now there could be their self inflicted wounds. 1883 01:23:14,760 --> 01:23:16,280 Speaker 4: A lot of times when it comes to this too. 1884 01:23:16,920 --> 01:23:18,960 Speaker 4: You know, Baker Mayfield probably would admit it. He wasn't 1885 01:23:18,960 --> 01:23:20,800 Speaker 4: the most mature when he came out of Oklahoma. 1886 01:23:20,880 --> 01:23:23,880 Speaker 2: A lot of dancing, yeah, look at a lot of 1887 01:23:24,200 --> 01:23:27,759 Speaker 2: six ads and a lot of notoriety before he actually 1888 01:23:27,840 --> 01:23:30,000 Speaker 2: did anything on the NFL playing field, and that might 1889 01:23:30,040 --> 01:23:32,880 Speaker 2: have affected his psyche as well. I think back to 1890 01:23:33,080 --> 01:23:35,360 Speaker 2: Brett Farr. People don't remember the fact that Brett Farvv 1891 01:23:35,479 --> 01:23:37,720 Speaker 2: was in Atlanta. Yeah, he was the second round pick 1892 01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:39,600 Speaker 2: of the Falcons because he was a little bit of 1893 01:23:39,640 --> 01:23:42,400 Speaker 2: a head case and he didn't get along with Jerry Glanville. Now, granted, 1894 01:23:42,880 --> 01:23:44,760 Speaker 2: most people didn't get along with Jerry Glanville. He was 1895 01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:47,320 Speaker 2: a little bit of a loose cannon, to say the least. 1896 01:23:47,880 --> 01:23:50,760 Speaker 2: But they shipped him off, and obviously he ends up 1897 01:23:50,760 --> 01:23:52,360 Speaker 2: being one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of 1898 01:23:52,400 --> 01:23:55,120 Speaker 2: the sport. I guess would he have turned into that 1899 01:23:55,320 --> 01:23:57,240 Speaker 2: had he not been traded from Atlanta, None of us. 1900 01:23:57,320 --> 01:23:58,120 Speaker 3: I guess we'll never know. 1901 01:23:58,720 --> 01:24:02,040 Speaker 4: Baker Mayfield definitely had a chip on his shoulder even 1902 01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:07,599 Speaker 4: during his time with the Browns, But on him, he's 1903 01:24:07,680 --> 01:24:11,879 Speaker 4: shortened stature, he's chippy, he's fiery out there. 1904 01:24:12,160 --> 01:24:15,400 Speaker 3: He's a gamer, Actually, I think so. 1905 01:24:15,760 --> 01:24:20,400 Speaker 4: I'm a fan like honestly, I like seeing guys that 1906 01:24:20,560 --> 01:24:24,000 Speaker 4: bet on themselves that eventually find a home. 1907 01:24:24,479 --> 01:24:25,000 Speaker 3: He's done. 1908 01:24:25,080 --> 01:24:29,519 Speaker 4: So he's been magnificent with the Buccaneers, but he probably 1909 01:24:29,560 --> 01:24:31,960 Speaker 4: should still be with the Cleveland Browns. That's just the 1910 01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:35,479 Speaker 4: bar was so low there, and yet they still moved 1911 01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:38,519 Speaker 4: on from him, and therefore he qualifies as somebody getting 1912 01:24:38,560 --> 01:24:41,040 Speaker 4: a raw deal. And that's what we're talking about here. 1913 01:24:41,240 --> 01:24:43,920 Speaker 4: So we got some other examples. You want to give 1914 01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:44,959 Speaker 4: me one of yours. 1915 01:24:44,760 --> 01:24:45,160 Speaker 3: Here, Kevin. 1916 01:24:45,520 --> 01:24:47,400 Speaker 2: What I thought of, and it does hit close to home, 1917 01:24:47,520 --> 01:24:50,320 Speaker 2: was rich Gannon. Now, rich Gannon was a backup for 1918 01:24:50,360 --> 01:24:53,000 Speaker 2: the Minnesota Vikings. Was actually drafted as a defensive back. 1919 01:24:53,960 --> 01:24:56,880 Speaker 2: Didn't have the greatest completion percentage, didn't have the strongest arm, 1920 01:24:57,360 --> 01:24:59,720 Speaker 2: but was very scrappy. Plucky, I think is a word 1921 01:24:59,720 --> 01:25:01,360 Speaker 2: that a lot of people would use. He was a 1922 01:25:01,439 --> 01:25:04,600 Speaker 2: plucky quarterback. Was a backup in Minnesota, bounced around a 1923 01:25:04,640 --> 01:25:07,519 Speaker 2: little bit, went to Kansas City. Elvis Gerback gets injured. 1924 01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:09,960 Speaker 2: He steps in and I think he leads him to 1925 01:25:09,960 --> 01:25:11,519 Speaker 2: an eight and eight record or something and has some 1926 01:25:11,600 --> 01:25:12,439 Speaker 2: pretty good numbers. 1927 01:25:12,520 --> 01:25:14,479 Speaker 3: But Elvis comes back healthy. They go with him. 1928 01:25:14,960 --> 01:25:17,280 Speaker 2: He ends up on the free agent market. The Raiders 1929 01:25:17,439 --> 01:25:19,400 Speaker 2: have no idea what they're doing with their head coach 1930 01:25:19,479 --> 01:25:21,960 Speaker 2: named John Gruden, who's thirty something years old and has 1931 01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:23,680 Speaker 2: never been a coach before, and it says, I like 1932 01:25:23,760 --> 01:25:25,599 Speaker 2: this Gannon guy. I think he can run my offense. 1933 01:25:26,080 --> 01:25:28,640 Speaker 2: And the Raiders have the greatest three year run that 1934 01:25:28,720 --> 01:25:31,000 Speaker 2: they've had in the last fifty years in the early 1935 01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:34,040 Speaker 2: two thousands, making it to two AFC Championship games and 1936 01:25:34,080 --> 01:25:36,160 Speaker 2: won Super Bowl. Of course, John Gruden with the Buccaneers 1937 01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:38,840 Speaker 2: ended up defeating them, But nobody thought that Rich Gannon 1938 01:25:38,880 --> 01:25:40,680 Speaker 2: at the age of like thirty five or thirty six, 1939 01:25:40,760 --> 01:25:42,439 Speaker 2: by the way, he was old when he actually got 1940 01:25:42,479 --> 01:25:44,559 Speaker 2: his opportunity to be the guy. 1941 01:25:44,479 --> 01:25:46,640 Speaker 3: On a team, and he went on to be a 1942 01:25:46,720 --> 01:25:48,280 Speaker 3: perennial Pro bowler in an MVP. 1943 01:25:48,640 --> 01:25:51,479 Speaker 4: Did he win the MVP outright or did he share 1944 01:25:51,520 --> 01:25:53,800 Speaker 4: it with Steve McNair, mimus. 1945 01:25:53,520 --> 01:25:56,360 Speaker 2: Steve nair shared it with Peyton Manning that one year. 1946 01:25:56,439 --> 01:25:58,120 Speaker 2: I forget what year that was, but he won that 1947 01:25:58,400 --> 01:26:00,200 Speaker 2: award outright. In the two thousand and two that was 1948 01:26:00,240 --> 01:26:01,760 Speaker 2: the year they lost to the Bucks in the Super Bowl. 1949 01:26:01,880 --> 01:26:04,680 Speaker 4: Dominant with the West Coast offense throwing it to two 1950 01:26:04,880 --> 01:26:07,400 Speaker 4: forty year olds on the outside with Tim Brown and 1951 01:26:07,520 --> 01:26:08,200 Speaker 4: Jerry Rice. 1952 01:26:08,280 --> 01:26:09,760 Speaker 3: That's honestly one of. 1953 01:26:09,800 --> 01:26:13,680 Speaker 4: The craziest things when you look back at wide receivers, 1954 01:26:13,760 --> 01:26:18,839 Speaker 4: guys at the skill position at that age, just wearing 1955 01:26:19,160 --> 01:26:22,800 Speaker 4: out young defensive backs. That was a special time in 1956 01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:25,080 Speaker 4: the NFL. That was a special Raiders team that probably 1957 01:26:25,080 --> 01:26:26,679 Speaker 4: should have won at least one Super Bowl. 1958 01:26:26,760 --> 01:26:26,920 Speaker 11: Yeah. 1959 01:26:26,920 --> 01:26:28,720 Speaker 2: You had Tim Brown and Jerry Rice who were like 1960 01:26:28,840 --> 01:26:31,599 Speaker 2: thirty eight and thirty seven respectively or something, and both 1961 01:26:31,640 --> 01:26:33,920 Speaker 2: of them had thousand yard seasons, both of them ten 1962 01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:34,960 Speaker 2: plus touchdowns. 1963 01:26:35,320 --> 01:26:36,440 Speaker 3: It really was remarkable. 1964 01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:39,000 Speaker 4: Now, I have some examples of guys getting a raw deal, 1965 01:26:39,160 --> 01:26:41,840 Speaker 4: but they don't necessarily see the pot of gold at 1966 01:26:41,840 --> 01:26:44,519 Speaker 4: the end of the rainbow. Oh, they don't necessarily see 1967 01:26:44,520 --> 01:26:47,760 Speaker 4: the promise of redemption story, but they definitely qualify as 1968 01:26:47,880 --> 01:26:50,720 Speaker 4: raw deals. Okay, we'll stick with the quarterback theme here. 1969 01:26:51,439 --> 01:26:55,080 Speaker 4: Our friend Rodney Pete, Oh yeah, you know, he arrived 1970 01:26:55,160 --> 01:26:57,839 Speaker 4: in Carolina in two thousand and two and the Panthers 1971 01:26:57,880 --> 01:27:01,080 Speaker 4: are coming off a one in fifteen season and Kevin. 1972 01:27:01,439 --> 01:27:03,960 Speaker 4: They were lucky they didn't play seventeen games back then 1973 01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:06,800 Speaker 4: because it would have been one in sixteen, I promise you, 1974 01:27:07,040 --> 01:27:10,799 Speaker 4: Chris Wanki he was old and busted as a rookie 1975 01:27:10,920 --> 01:27:12,960 Speaker 4: because he was thirty what basically, I think he was 1976 01:27:13,000 --> 01:27:16,400 Speaker 4: twenty nine when he entered the NFL. That was their 1977 01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:19,360 Speaker 4: starting quarterback. They go out and get Rodney Pete from 1978 01:27:19,920 --> 01:27:21,160 Speaker 4: the Raiders at that time. 1979 01:27:21,280 --> 01:27:22,160 Speaker 3: I think that it was. 1980 01:27:22,240 --> 01:27:26,160 Speaker 2: Marcus Tuyasa Sopo who they drafted, who beat who took 1981 01:27:26,240 --> 01:27:28,280 Speaker 2: his place? Well, if I had to give you not 1982 01:27:28,400 --> 01:27:29,840 Speaker 2: that most people want to hear about the history of 1983 01:27:29,880 --> 01:27:32,200 Speaker 2: the Raiders. First of all, the only reason Rodney Pete 1984 01:27:32,439 --> 01:27:35,439 Speaker 2: was a Raider was because the previous year in the 1985 01:27:35,479 --> 01:27:39,320 Speaker 2: AFC Championship game, Tony Sierragusa separate separator rich Gannon's shoulder 1986 01:27:39,439 --> 01:27:41,519 Speaker 2: intentionally and there was a No. I don't want to 1987 01:27:41,520 --> 01:27:43,880 Speaker 2: call him a nobody and be disrespectful. There's a guy 1988 01:27:43,960 --> 01:27:46,000 Speaker 2: named Bobby Hoying who nobody had ever heard of, who 1989 01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:48,280 Speaker 2: was rich Gannon's backup, and they had to throw him 1990 01:27:48,280 --> 01:27:50,080 Speaker 2: in there against one of the greatest defenses in the 1991 01:27:50,160 --> 01:27:51,800 Speaker 2: history of the sport, in the Baltimore Ravens. 1992 01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:54,840 Speaker 4: Was he a former Seahawk or a Saint? Bobby Joyns 1993 01:27:55,040 --> 01:27:56,559 Speaker 4: sure don't matter. 1994 01:27:56,840 --> 01:27:57,479 Speaker 3: It didn't matter. 1995 01:27:57,840 --> 01:28:00,320 Speaker 2: So to avoid that from happening, they went out and 1996 01:28:00,360 --> 01:28:02,720 Speaker 2: signed Rodney Pete to be Rich Cannon's backup in two 1997 01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:05,720 Speaker 2: thousand and one. And of course two thousand and one 1998 01:28:06,479 --> 01:28:08,920 Speaker 2: was the Tucker Rule game. So Rodney laments all the 1999 01:28:08,960 --> 01:28:10,760 Speaker 2: time how he was on the sideline when the entire 2000 01:28:10,800 --> 01:28:13,280 Speaker 2: Tuck Rule situation with Tom Brady happened. So that was 2001 01:28:13,320 --> 01:28:15,000 Speaker 2: the one year that Rodney was with the Raiders was 2002 01:28:15,080 --> 01:28:17,479 Speaker 2: to be Rich's backup. And that year in the draft 2003 01:28:17,479 --> 01:28:20,479 Speaker 2: they drafted Marcus tu Yasosopo out of Washington to be 2004 01:28:20,640 --> 01:28:22,920 Speaker 2: to groom him to be the quarterback and waiting behind Rich. 2005 01:28:23,000 --> 01:28:23,960 Speaker 2: Of course that didn't work out. 2006 01:28:24,040 --> 01:28:26,439 Speaker 4: Well, that's you reliving your pain with the Raiders. I 2007 01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:28,960 Speaker 4: really lives some of mine with the Panthers here. So 2008 01:28:29,080 --> 01:28:32,599 Speaker 4: George Seaford comes in, but got fired after that one 2009 01:28:32,680 --> 01:28:35,519 Speaker 4: in fifteen season. Remember he said he'd bring them a 2010 01:28:35,600 --> 01:28:38,160 Speaker 4: super Bowl. Instead, he brought them their worst year ever. 2011 01:28:38,640 --> 01:28:40,880 Speaker 3: He brought the super Bowl experience that he had from 2012 01:28:40,920 --> 01:28:41,600 Speaker 3: San Francisco. 2013 01:28:41,800 --> 01:28:43,639 Speaker 4: He did, where was that he brought that with mounted 2014 01:28:43,680 --> 01:28:48,639 Speaker 4: to Jack John Fox took over with Jack del Rio 2015 01:28:48,760 --> 01:28:51,280 Speaker 4: as his defensive coordinator. That's where I was going with that. 2016 01:28:52,040 --> 01:28:56,160 Speaker 4: And Rodney Pete, at the age of thirty seven, took 2017 01:28:56,240 --> 01:28:59,320 Speaker 4: over in the two thousand and two season and they 2018 01:28:59,400 --> 01:29:02,479 Speaker 4: went from a one in fifteen team to a seven 2019 01:29:02,520 --> 01:29:05,760 Speaker 4: to nine team. They won six more games thanks to 2020 01:29:05,920 --> 01:29:09,600 Speaker 4: Rodney Pete Steven Davis running the football in a revamped 2021 01:29:09,680 --> 01:29:13,200 Speaker 4: defense after they drafted Julius Peppers, but Rodney Pete gave 2022 01:29:13,280 --> 01:29:16,320 Speaker 4: them stability at the quarterback position they hadn't had in 2023 01:29:16,400 --> 01:29:19,160 Speaker 4: Carolina since a couple of years with the West Coast 2024 01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:20,880 Speaker 4: offense in George Seaford. 2025 01:29:21,160 --> 01:29:24,040 Speaker 3: Being paired up with Steve Burlin. That Rodney Pete was 2026 01:29:24,120 --> 01:29:26,840 Speaker 3: critical to them. Steve Berlin another former Raider great by 2027 01:29:26,880 --> 01:29:27,120 Speaker 3: the way. 2028 01:29:28,040 --> 01:29:33,040 Speaker 4: The very next season, Rodney Pete goes in at the 2029 01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:38,519 Speaker 4: starter and in the first game of the year, he 2030 01:29:38,680 --> 01:29:42,640 Speaker 4: gets passed over at the half when they're down seventeen 2031 01:29:42,640 --> 01:29:47,000 Speaker 4: to nothing. He gets benched for Jake dell Ome, a 2032 01:29:47,120 --> 01:29:51,679 Speaker 4: guy who couldn't start in the NFL Europe because Kurt 2033 01:29:51,720 --> 01:29:54,360 Speaker 4: Warner was in front of him, couldn't start for the 2034 01:29:54,479 --> 01:29:57,400 Speaker 4: lowly Saints, which is pathetic. 2035 01:29:57,560 --> 01:29:59,040 Speaker 3: I mean, how could that happen? 2036 01:29:59,600 --> 01:30:03,439 Speaker 4: And somehow they noticed he had some player to him 2037 01:30:04,200 --> 01:30:08,200 Speaker 4: during the offseason during training camp, during the preseason, and 2038 01:30:08,400 --> 01:30:12,360 Speaker 4: Rodney Pete goes from getting them six more wins the 2039 01:30:12,439 --> 01:30:16,160 Speaker 4: year before to being benched for Jake dell Ome at 2040 01:30:16,240 --> 01:30:19,120 Speaker 4: the half in Game one the very next season. 2041 01:30:19,680 --> 01:30:20,439 Speaker 3: Well, what happens. 2042 01:30:20,880 --> 01:30:25,519 Speaker 4: Jake dell Ome has an amazing comeback, throws a touchdown 2043 01:30:25,560 --> 01:30:28,439 Speaker 4: to Ricky Proll in that first game on a fourth 2044 01:30:28,479 --> 01:30:31,240 Speaker 4: and eleven. The rest is history is they go to 2045 01:30:31,320 --> 01:30:35,040 Speaker 4: the Super Bowl and eventually lose to the Patriots. Rodney 2046 01:30:35,080 --> 01:30:39,679 Speaker 4: Pete only threw one more pass in his career after 2047 01:30:39,840 --> 01:30:41,400 Speaker 4: being benched for Jake dell Ome. 2048 01:30:41,520 --> 01:30:43,760 Speaker 2: I would say that's a bit of a raw deal. 2049 01:30:44,200 --> 01:30:47,400 Speaker 2: It's a raw deal. It's really hard to argue against it. Obviously, 2050 01:30:47,479 --> 01:30:50,960 Speaker 2: I love Rodney. When the result is basically just losing 2051 01:30:51,000 --> 01:30:54,000 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl by mere seconds because John Casey kicks 2052 01:30:54,040 --> 01:30:56,000 Speaker 2: the ball out of bounds and gives Tom Brady thirty 2053 01:30:56,080 --> 01:30:56,720 Speaker 2: yards to work with. 2054 01:30:56,800 --> 01:30:58,559 Speaker 4: Maybe Rodney Pete would have won that Super Bowl. 2055 01:30:58,600 --> 01:31:02,200 Speaker 2: Man, who knows it's possible. Here's one for Major League 2056 01:31:02,200 --> 01:31:04,600 Speaker 2: Baseball that I think a lot of people forget. Do 2057 01:31:04,720 --> 01:31:07,320 Speaker 2: you remember that David Ortiz started his career with the 2058 01:31:07,360 --> 01:31:11,280 Speaker 2: Minnesota Twins oh yeah, Yeah, started with the Minnesota Twins, 2059 01:31:11,400 --> 01:31:14,479 Speaker 2: and because he was up on arbitrade and he was 2060 01:31:14,520 --> 01:31:16,439 Speaker 2: a good player, he was not He didn't turn into 2061 01:31:16,520 --> 01:31:18,960 Speaker 2: big poppy David Ortiz like he was in Boston. But 2062 01:31:19,040 --> 01:31:21,000 Speaker 2: he was a good, solid, productive player for the Twins 2063 01:31:21,040 --> 01:31:24,439 Speaker 2: at the time. But coming up on arbitration, knew they'd 2064 01:31:24,479 --> 01:31:26,320 Speaker 2: have to pay him, didn't want to do it. And 2065 01:31:26,439 --> 01:31:29,400 Speaker 2: they also had Matt Lukroi, who most people outside of 2066 01:31:29,439 --> 01:31:32,200 Speaker 2: Minnesota probably don't even know who that is, lined up 2067 01:31:32,240 --> 01:31:34,000 Speaker 2: as the DH and they thought that he was a 2068 01:31:34,080 --> 01:31:37,360 Speaker 2: better fit for them at DH than David Ortiz. So 2069 01:31:37,439 --> 01:31:39,559 Speaker 2: they decided to let David Ortiz walk away in free 2070 01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:42,519 Speaker 2: agency and sign with the Boston Red Sox. If you're 2071 01:31:42,560 --> 01:31:45,839 Speaker 2: the Minnesota Twins, you realize you could have had David Ortiz, 2072 01:31:46,760 --> 01:31:50,240 Speaker 2: Joe Mauer, and Justin Morena all at the same time, 2073 01:31:50,680 --> 01:31:54,240 Speaker 2: all on their prime. They fumbled big time. This is 2074 01:31:54,360 --> 01:31:58,600 Speaker 2: Ernest Byner fumbling in the red zone. Yeah, Minnesota, that 2075 01:31:58,880 --> 01:32:00,760 Speaker 2: I mean talking about not getting it. 2076 01:32:00,960 --> 01:32:01,040 Speaker 4: Now. 2077 01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:03,320 Speaker 3: He got his shot with Boston and it probably ended 2078 01:32:03,400 --> 01:32:05,439 Speaker 3: up being better for it. But you talk about it 2079 01:32:05,439 --> 01:32:07,360 Speaker 3: an egregious air in judgment. 2080 01:32:07,560 --> 01:32:12,120 Speaker 4: Probably Kevin is an absolute legend because of what he 2081 01:32:12,200 --> 01:32:15,040 Speaker 4: did in two thousand and four definitely fumbled the bag 2082 01:32:15,080 --> 01:32:17,160 Speaker 4: that the Minnesota Twins when it came to devid Ortiz. 2083 01:32:17,720 --> 01:32:23,000 Speaker 4: Minnesota had who was it Santana as they're starting to 2084 01:32:24,080 --> 01:32:28,720 Speaker 4: Francisco Lynn d'Or before his arm fell off. They had 2085 01:32:28,800 --> 01:32:33,640 Speaker 4: some teams Francisco Ariano and they couldn't get over the 2086 01:32:33,720 --> 01:32:37,599 Speaker 4: hump against the Yankees multiple years, just like the A's 2087 01:32:37,760 --> 01:32:43,000 Speaker 4: back then couldn't in a divisional early series. They kept losing. Yeah, 2088 01:32:43,120 --> 01:32:45,760 Speaker 4: Minnesota was one of those teams that was always in 2089 01:32:45,840 --> 01:32:48,439 Speaker 4: the hunt and just couldn't figure it out. All right, 2090 01:32:48,520 --> 01:32:51,599 Speaker 4: I got another raw deal and while it ended up great, 2091 01:32:52,479 --> 01:32:55,040 Speaker 4: just like the Panthers moving on from Rodney Pete, I 2092 01:32:55,200 --> 01:32:58,799 Speaker 4: still think this guy kind of got screwed. Eddie Jones, 2093 01:32:59,560 --> 01:33:02,840 Speaker 4: Eddie with the Los Angeles Lakers. I don't think people 2094 01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:07,400 Speaker 4: realize how highly touted he was. This was during the 2095 01:33:07,560 --> 01:33:10,920 Speaker 4: era of Who's going to be the next MJ. It's 2096 01:33:11,000 --> 01:33:15,400 Speaker 4: the mid nineties. All these Jordan clones are coming into 2097 01:33:15,479 --> 01:33:18,519 Speaker 4: the league and Eddie Jones was one of them. 2098 01:33:19,320 --> 01:33:21,200 Speaker 3: He ends up in just his. 2099 01:33:21,360 --> 01:33:26,200 Speaker 4: Third year being passed by by Kobe Bryant, who gets 2100 01:33:26,280 --> 01:33:30,040 Speaker 4: drafted in nineteen ninety six, Eddie Jones is out there 2101 01:33:30,600 --> 01:33:33,400 Speaker 4: on the fast track to be a superstar. Like he'p 2102 01:33:33,479 --> 01:33:36,680 Speaker 4: had multiple All Star games, he was in, he was 2103 01:33:37,160 --> 01:33:38,719 Speaker 4: on all defensive teams. 2104 01:33:39,320 --> 01:33:43,320 Speaker 3: He looked the part. He looked like, you know, the. 2105 01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:47,400 Speaker 4: First generation iPhone and stuff like he was the first 2106 01:33:47,479 --> 01:33:52,320 Speaker 4: generation Kobe. He even wore the number six, looks like eight. 2107 01:33:52,840 --> 01:33:55,080 Speaker 4: They kind of had a resemblance with the way they 2108 01:33:55,160 --> 01:33:59,080 Speaker 4: cut their hair. Before Kobe grew his out. There were 2109 01:33:59,160 --> 01:34:02,720 Speaker 4: times where a few Quinn Eddie Jones looked like Kobe. 2110 01:34:02,520 --> 01:34:06,559 Speaker 3: Bryant out there. He was a phenomenal athlete. He had 2111 01:34:06,640 --> 01:34:06,960 Speaker 3: it all. 2112 01:34:07,400 --> 01:34:09,800 Speaker 4: Michael Jordan complimented him on being one of the best 2113 01:34:09,840 --> 01:34:13,439 Speaker 4: defenders on him and the Lakers looked like they were 2114 01:34:13,520 --> 01:34:15,960 Speaker 4: invested in him, that he was going to be the 2115 01:34:16,040 --> 01:34:19,599 Speaker 4: guy they paired with Shack. But Jerry West drafts Kobe 2116 01:34:19,640 --> 01:34:24,760 Speaker 4: Bryant and then two years later, Eddie Jones ends up 2117 01:34:24,800 --> 01:34:29,200 Speaker 4: getting traded to the Charlotte Hornets, who traded Kobe Bryant 2118 01:34:29,560 --> 01:34:34,719 Speaker 4: to the Lakers to begin with. Eddie Jones never fulfilled 2119 01:34:34,760 --> 01:34:37,439 Speaker 4: that potential that he had, sure didn't, but he was 2120 01:34:37,840 --> 01:34:42,840 Speaker 4: very high and I think there's an alternate universe where 2121 01:34:42,880 --> 01:34:46,559 Speaker 4: he stays on with the Lakers and he's Shacks running 2122 01:34:46,600 --> 01:34:48,920 Speaker 4: mate to a couple championships. 2123 01:34:48,960 --> 01:34:51,160 Speaker 2: Now, both of us have been critical of Kobe Bryant 2124 01:34:51,200 --> 01:34:55,120 Speaker 2: throughout his career. Even if Eddie Jones stays there with 2125 01:34:55,160 --> 01:34:56,880 Speaker 2: the Lakers, he ain't turn it into Kobe. 2126 01:34:57,280 --> 01:34:58,960 Speaker 3: He's not turned into Kobe. 2127 01:34:59,240 --> 01:35:01,560 Speaker 4: But I'll say that he might have been able to 2128 01:35:01,600 --> 01:35:04,240 Speaker 4: get to a place that was good enough to pair 2129 01:35:04,400 --> 01:35:07,920 Speaker 4: with Peak Shack as good as and as dominant as 2130 01:35:08,000 --> 01:35:10,640 Speaker 4: he was to win a championship. 2131 01:35:10,680 --> 01:35:12,240 Speaker 2: I don't know if I'd be willing to go that far, 2132 01:35:12,320 --> 01:35:14,320 Speaker 2: because I mean, what was holding him back when he 2133 01:35:14,360 --> 01:35:16,360 Speaker 2: went to Charlotte or when he went to Miami from 2134 01:35:16,439 --> 01:35:18,080 Speaker 2: taking that next step? And it's not like he was 2135 01:35:18,280 --> 01:35:21,040 Speaker 2: he was playing with Zoe, he was playing with I 2136 01:35:21,080 --> 01:35:22,920 Speaker 2: guess Larry Johnson at left at that point in time, 2137 01:35:23,160 --> 01:35:25,719 Speaker 2: there was nobody getting in his way of taking that next. 2138 01:35:25,600 --> 01:35:27,519 Speaker 3: Step and that next arc of being a great player. 2139 01:35:27,600 --> 01:35:28,040 Speaker 3: It's fair. 2140 01:35:28,280 --> 01:35:30,360 Speaker 4: So I mean it's also fair to say, you know, 2141 01:35:30,680 --> 01:35:33,720 Speaker 4: depression could set in when you get passed over and 2142 01:35:33,800 --> 01:35:36,720 Speaker 4: you leave LA like that and you're watching the guy 2143 01:35:36,840 --> 01:35:39,600 Speaker 4: who took your spot go on to become. 2144 01:35:39,400 --> 01:35:40,840 Speaker 3: One of the all time greats. 2145 01:35:40,840 --> 01:35:42,320 Speaker 4: And by the way, I think it is the late 2146 01:35:42,360 --> 01:35:46,280 Speaker 4: great Kobe Bryant's birthday today. We should acknowledge that here. 2147 01:35:46,560 --> 01:35:49,719 Speaker 4: But I do think Eddie Jones he didn't do anything wrong. 2148 01:35:49,880 --> 01:35:51,439 Speaker 4: He didn't do anything wrong. It could be a raw 2149 01:35:51,520 --> 01:35:52,320 Speaker 4: deal situation. 2150 01:35:52,520 --> 01:35:54,240 Speaker 3: No, no, I'm not saying it wasn't a raw. 2151 01:35:54,160 --> 01:35:55,760 Speaker 2: Deal, and certain like he certainly could have been an 2152 01:35:55,760 --> 01:35:57,760 Speaker 2: effective role player for those teams if nothing else would 2153 01:35:57,760 --> 01:35:58,120 Speaker 2: have been right. 2154 01:35:58,240 --> 01:36:01,759 Speaker 3: He was a two time all Sorry, I don't disagree 2155 01:36:01,800 --> 01:36:01,920 Speaker 3: with that. 2156 01:36:02,040 --> 01:36:04,320 Speaker 2: All right, Obviously, with the ascension of Kobe is he 2157 01:36:04,400 --> 01:36:06,160 Speaker 2: was gonna take more of a back seat, and they 2158 01:36:06,200 --> 01:36:07,040 Speaker 2: played basically the. 2159 01:36:07,040 --> 01:36:09,920 Speaker 3: Similar position, Okay, and they traded him. They traded him 2160 01:36:09,920 --> 01:36:12,000 Speaker 3: for Glenn Rice. Is that what that trade was? That 2161 01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:12,800 Speaker 3: sounds right? 2162 01:36:12,920 --> 01:36:13,080 Speaker 12: Yeah? 2163 01:36:13,160 --> 01:36:13,759 Speaker 3: With Charlotte. 2164 01:36:13,840 --> 01:36:17,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, he never got the coaching from Phil Jackson, he 2165 01:36:18,160 --> 01:36:21,759 Speaker 4: didn't get a lot of the perks that Kobe Bryant 2166 01:36:21,880 --> 01:36:22,559 Speaker 4: ended up getting. 2167 01:36:22,600 --> 01:36:25,720 Speaker 3: I'm just saying I don't know. On Earth too, Eddie 2168 01:36:25,840 --> 01:36:28,599 Speaker 3: Jones is doing some stuff. Yeah, you're not wrong, You're 2169 01:36:28,640 --> 01:36:28,960 Speaker 3: not wrong. 2170 01:36:29,320 --> 01:36:31,160 Speaker 2: I don't know if I will consider this a raw deal, 2171 01:36:31,240 --> 01:36:32,680 Speaker 2: but it's more of like just a point back in 2172 01:36:32,720 --> 01:36:34,519 Speaker 2: the face, kind of a gotcha to the LA Rams 2173 01:36:34,560 --> 01:36:34,880 Speaker 2: at the time. 2174 01:36:34,920 --> 01:36:35,920 Speaker 3: And that's Jerome Bettis. 2175 01:36:36,160 --> 01:36:36,320 Speaker 5: Oh. 2176 01:36:36,880 --> 01:36:39,320 Speaker 2: Jerome Bettis started his career the first couple of years 2177 01:36:39,360 --> 01:36:41,400 Speaker 2: of his career with the Los Angeles Rams, and I 2178 01:36:41,439 --> 01:36:43,439 Speaker 2: think he's played his last year in Saint Louis when 2179 01:36:43,439 --> 01:36:46,960 Speaker 2: they first moved. But Rich Brooks, the former great coach 2180 01:36:47,000 --> 01:36:49,639 Speaker 2: at Oregon, got the head coaching job at the Rams. 2181 01:36:49,680 --> 01:36:51,639 Speaker 2: It wanted to be more of a pass happy offense 2182 01:36:51,640 --> 01:36:54,200 Speaker 2: and didn't think that Jerome fit and thought that Jerome 2183 01:36:54,479 --> 01:36:56,840 Speaker 2: was not really not conducive to the kind office they 2184 01:36:56,880 --> 01:36:58,680 Speaker 2: wanted to run. So they said, I will ship him 2185 01:36:58,680 --> 01:37:00,680 Speaker 2: out of here. We're gonna roll the ball around a 2186 01:37:00,720 --> 01:37:03,120 Speaker 2: little bit and open things up. Well, Rich Brooks got 2187 01:37:03,160 --> 01:37:04,720 Speaker 2: fired after a year and a half at the job 2188 01:37:05,439 --> 01:37:07,960 Speaker 2: with the Rams, and Jerome Benness went on to be 2189 01:37:08,000 --> 01:37:09,519 Speaker 2: one of the greatest running backs in the history of 2190 01:37:09,560 --> 01:37:11,519 Speaker 2: the sport and obviously ended his career with the Super 2191 01:37:11,560 --> 01:37:13,519 Speaker 2: Bowl ring in his hometown of Detroit with the Steelers 2192 01:37:13,560 --> 01:37:15,160 Speaker 2: beating the Seattle Seahawks. 2193 01:37:15,360 --> 01:37:17,719 Speaker 3: Yeah so they should have gave the bus a permanent 2194 01:37:17,800 --> 01:37:20,120 Speaker 3: parking spot in LA Yeah, absolutely so. 2195 01:37:20,400 --> 01:37:23,120 Speaker 2: Talk Abaull fumbling the bag, not getting a fair shot 2196 01:37:23,360 --> 01:37:25,040 Speaker 2: because they didn't think he'd fit in that offense. 2197 01:37:25,320 --> 01:37:27,240 Speaker 3: Well, he fit pretty damn perfectly in Pittsburgh. 2198 01:37:27,720 --> 01:37:30,120 Speaker 2: And Rich Brooks, who went back and had a cup 2199 01:37:30,120 --> 01:37:32,600 Speaker 2: of coffee in college at Kentucky really never to be 2200 01:37:32,640 --> 01:37:35,280 Speaker 2: heard Froim again. While Jerome bettis one of the great 2201 01:37:35,360 --> 01:37:37,240 Speaker 2: running backs in NFL history. 2202 01:37:37,040 --> 01:37:40,320 Speaker 4: And still amazing to me though that everybody forgets he 2203 01:37:40,320 --> 01:37:42,600 Speaker 4: would have been the goat and the wrong way. He 2204 01:37:42,640 --> 01:37:45,719 Speaker 4: would have been the scapegoat had they lost that game 2205 01:37:46,160 --> 01:37:48,760 Speaker 4: to the Colts where he bumbled it at the one 2206 01:37:48,920 --> 01:37:49,559 Speaker 4: yard line. 2207 01:37:50,200 --> 01:37:51,920 Speaker 3: Nobody remembers that now I mean. 2208 01:37:51,840 --> 01:37:56,760 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Colton because the Colts defender and I forget who 2209 01:37:56,840 --> 01:37:58,680 Speaker 2: it is. And there's probably a Colt fan listening who 2210 01:37:58,720 --> 01:38:02,160 Speaker 2: does this is insane who picked it up, was hobbled 2211 01:38:02,600 --> 01:38:04,800 Speaker 2: because he had was it a domestic issue the night 2212 01:38:04,840 --> 01:38:06,920 Speaker 2: before and it's like his girlfriend stabbed him in his 2213 01:38:07,040 --> 01:38:07,719 Speaker 2: leg or something. 2214 01:38:07,960 --> 01:38:11,960 Speaker 3: We're making number I'm not making this up. Yeah, he 2215 01:38:12,040 --> 01:38:13,360 Speaker 3: got stabbed. I don't know if it was a number 2216 01:38:13,360 --> 01:38:15,320 Speaker 3: two pencil. Yeah, it might have been a kitchen knife. 2217 01:38:15,360 --> 01:38:17,719 Speaker 3: But he got stabbed by his wife or his girlfriend. 2218 01:38:17,760 --> 01:38:20,000 Speaker 2: It was a domestic issue like the night before the game, 2219 01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:23,599 Speaker 2: so he was hobbled, which allowed Ben Roethlisberger to actually 2220 01:38:23,640 --> 01:38:25,000 Speaker 2: slow him down and tackle him. 2221 01:38:25,200 --> 01:38:27,280 Speaker 3: Then that ended up saving the game for the Steelers. 2222 01:38:27,479 --> 01:38:31,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, that is a form of final destination, maybe a 2223 01:38:31,880 --> 01:38:35,080 Speaker 4: PG version of her because nobody ended up actually dying. 2224 01:38:35,120 --> 01:38:37,160 Speaker 3: But you think about all the things. 2225 01:38:37,000 --> 01:38:39,760 Speaker 4: That had to go right for the Pittsburgh Steelers to 2226 01:38:39,920 --> 01:38:41,840 Speaker 4: end up winning a Super Bowl. Where by the way, 2227 01:38:41,960 --> 01:38:44,680 Speaker 4: now Seahawks fans are about to start calling in and 2228 01:38:44,800 --> 01:38:47,680 Speaker 4: say how they got screwed Chad Hutchinson tripping by the 2229 01:38:47,840 --> 01:38:50,200 Speaker 4: officials in that Super Bowl. 2230 01:38:50,400 --> 01:38:51,880 Speaker 3: So everything had to go right. 2231 01:38:52,000 --> 01:38:54,280 Speaker 4: But the bus was a part of it, obviously. All Right, 2232 01:38:54,280 --> 01:38:57,000 Speaker 4: I got somebody that got a raw deal. And you 2233 01:38:57,120 --> 01:39:01,080 Speaker 4: may disagree with this, but I think it's accurate when 2234 01:39:01,120 --> 01:39:04,639 Speaker 4: you look at the dysfunction of the Sacramento. 2235 01:39:04,160 --> 01:39:07,919 Speaker 3: Kings and where they have been over the years, basically 2236 01:39:08,040 --> 01:39:13,880 Speaker 3: since two thousand and six, they did not deserve to 2237 01:39:14,040 --> 01:39:20,439 Speaker 3: draft Jimmer Ferdett. I believe Jimmer Ferdett was ruined Vivlati 2238 01:39:20,520 --> 01:39:25,080 Speaker 3: Diva and the Sacramento Kings and the constant state they 2239 01:39:25,120 --> 01:39:29,040 Speaker 3: were in of just ineptitude and dysfunction. 2240 01:39:29,280 --> 01:39:32,240 Speaker 2: So the Kings are the reason why Jimmer Fredette is 2241 01:39:32,280 --> 01:39:34,800 Speaker 2: a star now overseas and is not playing in the NBA. 2242 01:39:35,040 --> 01:39:38,240 Speaker 4: Yes, he got a raw deal by being drafted by 2243 01:39:38,280 --> 01:39:42,320 Speaker 4: the Sacramento Kings. There is no reason why he can't 2244 01:39:42,320 --> 01:39:45,160 Speaker 4: at least be Luke Canard in today's NBA. 2245 01:39:46,960 --> 01:39:49,200 Speaker 16: The case he fought back to the NBA after he 2246 01:39:49,280 --> 01:39:50,160 Speaker 16: went overseas, he. 2247 01:39:50,360 --> 01:39:54,360 Speaker 4: Tried and then he went to another pathetics franchise, the 2248 01:39:54,439 --> 01:39:57,040 Speaker 4: Phoenix Suns. Sounds like his bad choices on his part 2249 01:39:57,080 --> 01:40:02,280 Speaker 4: at this points after But the Sacramento Kings, it's tough 2250 01:40:02,360 --> 01:40:05,360 Speaker 4: to get that stench off of you when you're drafted 2251 01:40:05,600 --> 01:40:09,439 Speaker 4: tenth ahead of Klay Thompson and Kawhi Leonard and the 2252 01:40:09,560 --> 01:40:12,880 Speaker 4: expectations were that high and he never had a chance 2253 01:40:12,960 --> 01:40:13,640 Speaker 4: in Sacramento. 2254 01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:15,519 Speaker 2: I'm hearing what you're saying, but I mean the Aaron 2255 01:40:15,560 --> 01:40:17,680 Speaker 2: Fox was fine before they shipped him off. 2256 01:40:17,880 --> 01:40:20,720 Speaker 3: Kind of yeah, you traded for Sabonis. He's been fine, Boy, 2257 01:40:21,880 --> 01:40:24,760 Speaker 3: he was fine. I don't know. I am I'm a 2258 01:40:24,880 --> 01:40:26,840 Speaker 3: Jimmer for debt truther. Is that okay? 2259 01:40:27,000 --> 01:40:29,760 Speaker 4: There is no reason in the modern NBA a guy 2260 01:40:29,880 --> 01:40:33,479 Speaker 4: that can shoot that well shouldn't have succeeded, and I 2261 01:40:33,600 --> 01:40:34,800 Speaker 4: blamed the Kings because of it. 2262 01:40:35,120 --> 01:40:37,320 Speaker 3: I'm sorry he got a raw deal. Maybe he's just 2263 01:40:37,360 --> 01:40:39,559 Speaker 3: not good enough to cut it at the NBA. 2264 01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:44,160 Speaker 4: Seventy for the shang Hai Sharks.

He was doing dropping like thirty a 2313 01:42:43,200 --> 01:42:46,240 Speaker 17: game propelled the Blazers into the playoffs and was doing 2314 01:42:46,400 --> 01:42:49,559 Speaker 17: Jordan's styles, dunks from the free throw line before anybody 2315 01:42:49,640 --> 01:42:54,200 Speaker 17: knew who Jordan was. But sadly, about two seasons in 2316 01:42:54,360 --> 01:42:54,920 Speaker 17: and that was it. 2317 01:42:55,120 --> 01:42:57,439 Speaker 13: And his name was Billy Ray Bates. I don't know 2318 01:42:57,479 --> 01:43:00,479 Speaker 13: if you guys remember him or not, but exciting just 2319 01:43:00,800 --> 01:43:03,640 Speaker 13: was just phenomenal. But you know, it's a you know, 2320 01:43:03,800 --> 01:43:07,160 Speaker 13: Portland market that was smaller, and uh, I think he 2321 01:43:07,240 --> 01:43:10,240 Speaker 13: had a lot of well off the court curriculars that 2322 01:43:10,320 --> 01:43:12,920 Speaker 13: he was doing and uh but that guy should have 2323 01:43:12,960 --> 01:43:15,439 Speaker 13: been something and he really was for those couple of seasons, 2324 01:43:15,560 --> 01:43:17,040 Speaker 13: he was magnificent. 2325 01:43:17,479 --> 01:43:19,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I know the name there, Corey, And thanks 2326 01:43:19,200 --> 01:43:21,240 Speaker 2: for the call. Man appreciated. Yeah, you know, I mean 2327 01:43:21,560 --> 01:43:24,280 Speaker 2: sports unfortunately is littered with you know names like that. 2328 01:43:24,439 --> 01:43:26,960 Speaker 2: I mean I think of when Bias, you know, the 2329 01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:29,560 Speaker 2: Celtics is when you mentioned something on Somebody that his 2330 01:43:29,680 --> 01:43:31,880 Speaker 2: career never even started, never got off the ground, and 2331 01:43:32,000 --> 01:43:34,160 Speaker 2: his off court demons ended up costing him his life 2332 01:43:34,200 --> 01:43:36,920 Speaker 2: before his career began. But I mean, he was supposed 2333 01:43:36,960 --> 01:43:38,719 Speaker 2: to be the next guy to kind of keep carrying 2334 01:43:38,760 --> 01:43:41,639 Speaker 2: the Celtic legacy after Bird and McHale and those guys 2335 01:43:41,680 --> 01:43:43,840 Speaker 2: phased out, and unfortunately he wasn't able to do that. 2336 01:43:44,040 --> 01:43:48,599 Speaker 4: You think about Boston obviously the tragic death with Len Bias, 2337 01:43:49,280 --> 01:43:53,080 Speaker 4: but also Reggie Lewis in the nineties, right, Ye, how 2338 01:43:53,160 --> 01:43:58,160 Speaker 4: much further does their dynasty extend out to where they 2339 01:43:58,240 --> 01:44:01,519 Speaker 4: went from not winning a champion shift from eighty six 2340 01:44:01,680 --> 01:44:06,040 Speaker 4: till two thousand and eight with the Boston Three party 2341 01:44:06,600 --> 01:44:10,200 Speaker 4: with KG Ray, Allen, Paul Pierce and obviously Rondo is 2342 01:44:10,200 --> 01:44:13,160 Speaker 4: a part of that too, but it is we're talking 2343 01:44:13,280 --> 01:44:16,120 Speaker 4: some what if stories as well. I guess they somewhat 2344 01:44:16,200 --> 01:44:20,280 Speaker 4: intersect here with some of the raw deal athlete theme 2345 01:44:20,360 --> 01:44:23,360 Speaker 4: that we got going. Yeah, absolutely absolutely, eight seven seven 2346 01:44:23,439 --> 01:44:25,200 Speaker 4: ninety nine on Fox is the phone number. 2347 01:44:25,320 --> 01:44:27,720 Speaker 3: Let's go to Poppy in San Diego. Poppy, what's going on? 2348 01:44:28,320 --> 01:44:28,720 Speaker 12: What's going on? 2349 01:44:29,080 --> 01:44:29,240 Speaker 4: Hey? 2350 01:44:29,360 --> 01:44:31,280 Speaker 12: The one player there? And I think that they didn't 2351 01:44:31,280 --> 01:44:33,880 Speaker 12: give a freshound from the Texas David Carr. You know, 2352 01:44:34,000 --> 01:44:36,400 Speaker 12: he went into an expansion team, the Houston Tech. There 2353 01:44:36,840 --> 01:44:40,160 Speaker 12: he had no offensive line. He got sacked like seventy 2354 01:44:40,439 --> 01:44:42,840 Speaker 12: six times in his rookie year. Accurate, he didn't get 2355 01:44:42,840 --> 01:44:45,360 Speaker 12: a you know, a fair chance. And the thing what 2356 01:44:45,479 --> 01:44:48,320 Speaker 12: I'm going to be very excited tomorrow is a Ravens 2357 01:44:48,360 --> 01:44:50,479 Speaker 12: against the Commanders in the preseason game. I got a 2358 01:44:50,520 --> 01:44:52,959 Speaker 12: free pick three guys, and I'm gonna take the Baltimore 2359 01:44:53,000 --> 01:44:55,120 Speaker 12: Ravens minus two and a half. What are you guys thinking? 2360 01:44:55,560 --> 01:44:57,599 Speaker 4: Is that a lead pipe stone called Locke? 2361 01:44:58,120 --> 01:44:58,160 Speaker 5: Like? 2362 01:44:58,280 --> 01:44:59,120 Speaker 3: What is That's? 2363 01:44:59,400 --> 01:45:01,360 Speaker 4: That's serious? How many stars does that pick? 2364 01:45:01,560 --> 01:45:01,680 Speaker 5: Is this? 2365 01:45:01,800 --> 01:45:05,400 Speaker 3: Brandon Lang? Why are you so confident with taking the 2366 01:45:05,439 --> 01:45:06,479 Speaker 3: Baltimore minus to two? 2367 01:45:06,520 --> 01:45:06,640 Speaker 6: There? 2368 01:45:06,680 --> 01:45:08,680 Speaker 3: Papa, what's you? What's your thought process on that? I'm 2369 01:45:08,800 --> 01:45:09,360 Speaker 3: I'm intrigued. 2370 01:45:10,240 --> 01:45:13,920 Speaker 12: I'm very confident. You know, Coach Harbaugh he's giving these 2371 01:45:13,960 --> 01:45:16,040 Speaker 12: guys playing one hundred percent. And you know what, have 2372 01:45:16,160 --> 01:45:18,240 Speaker 12: you lived over there in the Maryland area. You know 2373 01:45:18,720 --> 01:45:20,680 Speaker 12: their rivals and they hate each other, so you know 2374 01:45:20,840 --> 01:45:23,160 Speaker 12: Ravens are going to go with it. They're all one 2375 01:45:23,240 --> 01:45:25,680 Speaker 12: hundred percent. I don't care whether the stars player or 2376 01:45:25,720 --> 01:45:28,280 Speaker 12: not the third fourth strings Raymons are going to dominate 2377 01:45:28,320 --> 01:45:30,479 Speaker 12: that game. So that's my that's my thought. 2378 01:45:30,680 --> 01:45:32,880 Speaker 4: Look, Poppy, I'm not saying that if you're betting on 2379 01:45:32,960 --> 01:45:35,920 Speaker 4: preseason football you have a problem. But have you had 2380 01:45:36,080 --> 01:45:39,040 Speaker 4: a lot of success betting on preseason football because. 2381 01:45:38,800 --> 01:45:40,240 Speaker 3: You just never know what you're going to get? 2382 01:45:40,960 --> 01:45:42,800 Speaker 12: Well, of course I have. You know, I got a 2383 01:45:43,080 --> 01:45:44,640 Speaker 12: you know, a show coming up or you know my 2384 01:45:44,760 --> 01:45:47,120 Speaker 12: mans up and Mallard. I've given picks out last season. 2385 01:45:47,320 --> 01:45:49,519 Speaker 12: You guys heard, I'm very successful and giving my pick. 2386 01:45:49,640 --> 01:45:52,639 Speaker 12: So I'm very excited just shopping the free picks for preseason, 2387 01:45:52,720 --> 01:45:56,240 Speaker 12: getting the balls going, the whales going for you know, 2388 01:45:56,320 --> 01:45:59,040 Speaker 12: football season. But we'll see what the game tomorrow and 2389 01:45:59,120 --> 01:45:59,800 Speaker 12: I'll see you guys. 2390 01:46:01,320 --> 01:46:03,479 Speaker 2: Thank you for the We'll be tracking for the advice 2391 01:46:03,560 --> 01:46:05,479 Speaker 2: on that. And I know, I mean you could say 2392 01:46:05,520 --> 01:46:07,720 Speaker 2: if you wanted to be this way, I'm not. But 2393 01:46:07,800 --> 01:46:11,280 Speaker 2: the Baltimore Ravens going undefeated in the preseason is kind 2394 01:46:11,320 --> 01:46:13,840 Speaker 2: of a thing. So it's not that far fetch that 2395 01:46:13,920 --> 01:46:15,680 Speaker 2: you would predict that they would be minus to two 2396 01:46:15,720 --> 01:46:16,439 Speaker 2: and get a victory. 2397 01:46:16,640 --> 01:46:19,080 Speaker 3: I think they won twenty four consecutive preseason games. 2398 01:46:19,080 --> 01:46:21,160 Speaker 4: At one point, I didn't know we also had a 2399 01:46:21,280 --> 01:46:24,799 Speaker 4: side from Benny versus the Penny. We'd have Poppy versus 2400 01:46:25,000 --> 01:46:28,240 Speaker 4: Benny giving out his own picks on them balor shows. 2401 01:46:28,280 --> 01:46:30,000 Speaker 3: I can't imagine that goes very well for Poppy, but 2402 01:46:30,040 --> 01:46:30,599 Speaker 3: I could be wrong. 2403 01:46:30,720 --> 01:46:32,640 Speaker 4: Interesting, Well, I think that's big Ben about that, all right? 2404 01:46:32,680 --> 01:46:38,519 Speaker 4: The theme is athletes who got a raw deal? Bbrie, 2405 01:46:38,800 --> 01:46:41,360 Speaker 4: this was your subject. You were able to connect it 2406 01:46:41,439 --> 01:46:44,400 Speaker 4: all together, starting with Baker Mayfield got a raw deal 2407 01:46:44,520 --> 01:46:45,800 Speaker 4: turn things around in his career. 2408 01:46:45,840 --> 01:46:47,360 Speaker 3: Anybody else like that you want to talk about it, 2409 01:46:47,360 --> 01:46:47,559 Speaker 3: I have. 2410 01:46:47,680 --> 01:46:50,439 Speaker 14: Like four athletes like whoa that went through my mind. 2411 01:46:50,520 --> 01:46:53,280 Speaker 14: But because it's me, I'm gonna go with Drew Brees. 2412 01:46:53,680 --> 01:46:55,640 Speaker 14: The fact that the Chargers let him go after he 2413 01:46:55,760 --> 01:46:59,839 Speaker 14: hurt his shoulders, right, and not only was it the Chargers, 2414 01:47:00,160 --> 01:47:01,840 Speaker 14: what other team could have had him? 2415 01:47:02,160 --> 01:47:03,880 Speaker 16: The Miami Dolphins and Nick Saban. 2416 01:47:04,240 --> 01:47:07,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, he ended up going with Culpepper instead, who got 2417 01:47:07,520 --> 01:47:10,160 Speaker 4: his knee busted up by Mike Mintter of the Carolina Panthers. 2418 01:47:10,200 --> 01:47:12,080 Speaker 2: I will say I think the Chargers had a convenient 2419 01:47:12,160 --> 01:47:15,800 Speaker 2: out with Drew Brees entering your shoulder. Philip Rivers had 2420 01:47:15,800 --> 01:47:18,040 Speaker 2: already been sitting behind him, that Breeze was playing so well. 2421 01:47:18,160 --> 01:47:20,320 Speaker 2: So the fact that Breeze separated his shoulder, it was like, well, 2422 01:47:20,360 --> 01:47:22,280 Speaker 2: the decisions made for us at this point because if 2423 01:47:22,280 --> 01:47:24,360 Speaker 2: Breeze had stayed healthy in the Chargers I mean, remember 2424 01:47:24,680 --> 01:47:26,960 Speaker 2: that was Antonio Gates and LT like they were winning 2425 01:47:27,000 --> 01:47:27,400 Speaker 2: the division. 2426 01:47:27,439 --> 01:47:28,920 Speaker 4: They were really good at that point and time, they 2427 01:47:28,920 --> 01:47:30,320 Speaker 4: were on the come up, and they had just had 2428 01:47:30,320 --> 01:47:31,160 Speaker 4: a really bad kicker. 2429 01:47:32,960 --> 01:47:34,519 Speaker 14: And I just think that that was one of the 2430 01:47:34,920 --> 01:47:37,000 Speaker 14: not the beginning of obviously the Chargers curse, but I 2431 01:47:37,000 --> 01:47:38,880 Speaker 14: think it just kind of like elevated another like one 2432 01:47:38,920 --> 01:47:40,720 Speaker 14: hundred years, you know, just kind of added to it. 2433 01:47:40,880 --> 01:47:43,360 Speaker 3: And that Katie was great during the regular season. Yeah, 2434 01:47:43,800 --> 01:47:44,240 Speaker 3: how do you do. 2435 01:47:44,280 --> 01:47:45,639 Speaker 4: Against the Jets in that playoffs? 2436 01:47:45,640 --> 01:47:47,559 Speaker 3: That's where I did. I just say the regular season. 2437 01:47:48,200 --> 01:47:49,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, and he got hurt in the Pro Bowl, as 2438 01:47:49,920 --> 01:47:52,880 Speaker 4: you mentioned there with the Drew Brees right, like we 2439 01:47:52,960 --> 01:47:55,760 Speaker 4: don't have the Pro Bowl now. But even though he 2440 01:47:55,920 --> 01:47:58,920 Speaker 4: hurt his shoulder, that's the one major injury that I 2441 01:47:58,960 --> 01:48:00,000 Speaker 4: can remember from the Pro Bowl. 2442 01:48:00,040 --> 01:48:01,640 Speaker 2: Well, I think he got injured the last game of 2443 01:48:01,680 --> 01:48:04,200 Speaker 2: the regular season against Denver if I remember correct, Is 2444 01:48:04,200 --> 01:48:04,479 Speaker 2: that right? 2445 01:48:04,560 --> 01:48:06,040 Speaker 3: It was the last game of the regular season. 2446 01:48:06,080 --> 01:48:07,439 Speaker 2: He was going to be a pending free agent, and 2447 01:48:07,479 --> 01:48:09,960 Speaker 2: he separated his shoulder, and for the charges, it was like, 2448 01:48:10,000 --> 01:48:12,240 Speaker 2: I mean, obviously, never root for someone to get hurt, 2449 01:48:12,280 --> 01:48:14,400 Speaker 2: but again the decision was kind of made for him 2450 01:48:14,400 --> 01:48:15,040 Speaker 2: at that point in time. 2451 01:48:15,080 --> 01:48:17,640 Speaker 3: We drafted Philip Rivers a couple of years earlier, or 2452 01:48:17,640 --> 01:48:24,040 Speaker 3: the year earlier. This guy is injured year maybe I 2453 01:48:24,200 --> 01:48:25,400 Speaker 3: was thinking of Brian Mormon. 2454 01:48:25,439 --> 01:48:25,559 Speaker 8: Then. 2455 01:48:25,640 --> 01:48:28,080 Speaker 3: The only guy to really be hurt in the let 2456 01:48:28,160 --> 01:48:30,479 Speaker 3: up by the lady Sean Taylor, his ego was hurt. 2457 01:48:30,520 --> 01:48:32,720 Speaker 4: At least he did give Sean Taylor a pat on 2458 01:48:32,760 --> 01:48:34,519 Speaker 4: the back after that hard hitting the Pro Bowl. 2459 01:48:34,800 --> 01:48:35,960 Speaker 3: All right, what else you got? 2460 01:48:36,320 --> 01:48:37,080 Speaker 16: No, that was my own. 2461 01:48:37,120 --> 01:48:37,320 Speaker 10: That was. 2462 01:48:38,800 --> 01:48:39,040 Speaker 1: Four. 2463 01:48:39,520 --> 01:48:41,960 Speaker 16: I mean well, okay, David Ortiz was my other one. 2464 01:48:42,760 --> 01:48:44,240 Speaker 16: So that like, so that was funny that we were 2465 01:48:44,280 --> 01:48:44,439 Speaker 16: on the. 2466 01:48:44,439 --> 01:48:47,639 Speaker 4: Scene saying Kevin looked at your cheeks and then. 2467 01:48:48,040 --> 01:48:49,920 Speaker 14: I mean I was gonna say Sam Darnold and just 2468 01:48:50,000 --> 01:48:52,559 Speaker 14: like the Jets in general, I think it's just kind 2469 01:48:52,560 --> 01:48:54,879 Speaker 14: of something. And then went to the Vikings and Kevin O'Connell, 2470 01:48:54,920 --> 01:48:57,080 Speaker 14: I mean, that's kind of big, okay, okay, and then 2471 01:48:57,479 --> 01:48:59,560 Speaker 14: just maybe Steve Nash in the Mavericks. I mean, like, 2472 01:48:59,680 --> 01:49:01,840 Speaker 14: you know, they let him walk after him and Dirk 2473 01:49:02,120 --> 01:49:05,840 Speaker 14: could have been a dynamic duo, and then Mark Cuban 2474 01:49:05,960 --> 01:49:06,479 Speaker 14: just let him go. 2475 01:49:06,840 --> 01:49:10,840 Speaker 4: No, that is something that I think haunted Mark Cuban 2476 01:49:10,920 --> 01:49:13,320 Speaker 4: for a while, well not forever, because they still won 2477 01:49:13,360 --> 01:49:16,599 Speaker 4: the championship in twenty eleven, and they beat the Phoenix 2478 01:49:16,640 --> 01:49:19,080 Speaker 4: Suns in the playoffs. I think at one point to 2479 01:49:19,920 --> 01:49:22,240 Speaker 4: remember that part of it, I thought you were Phoenix Suns. 2480 01:49:22,280 --> 01:49:22,479 Speaker 5: Fair. 2481 01:49:22,720 --> 01:49:24,840 Speaker 16: No, it's fine, it's fine. I'm just saying that those 2482 01:49:24,840 --> 01:49:25,880 Speaker 16: are just a few of mine. 2483 01:49:25,920 --> 01:49:26,120 Speaker 3: Mark. 2484 01:49:26,200 --> 01:49:28,639 Speaker 4: I think that's his back was falling off, at least 2485 01:49:28,680 --> 01:49:31,000 Speaker 4: it was supposed to early on. It's and steady way 2486 01:49:31,080 --> 01:49:32,000 Speaker 4: until he got to the Lakers. 2487 01:49:32,160 --> 01:49:34,360 Speaker 3: Saved that for his leg for the Lakers tenure, Mark, 2488 01:49:34,439 --> 01:49:34,800 Speaker 3: What do you got? 2489 01:49:34,840 --> 01:49:35,000 Speaker 12: Mark? 2490 01:49:35,080 --> 01:49:37,880 Speaker 15: The one person that I thought about from many many 2491 01:49:37,960 --> 01:49:40,040 Speaker 15: months ago was a guy Mark Aguire used to be 2492 01:49:40,160 --> 01:49:43,720 Speaker 15: with Paul. I thought he was a great player, but 2493 01:49:43,920 --> 01:49:47,160 Speaker 15: somehow he just never got the right footing or the 2494 01:49:47,280 --> 01:49:51,439 Speaker 15: right team to continue and have a better career. And 2495 01:49:51,520 --> 01:49:55,320 Speaker 15: then also I was thinking there was a quarterback you 2496 01:49:55,360 --> 01:49:58,200 Speaker 15: wouldn't know him, Okay, fig he was I think you 2497 01:49:58,280 --> 01:50:00,880 Speaker 15: turned into a bus. But the last name Prior for 2498 01:50:00,960 --> 01:50:02,360 Speaker 15: the Raiders por. 2499 01:50:02,520 --> 01:50:02,720 Speaker 13: Yeah. 2500 01:50:02,760 --> 01:50:06,559 Speaker 15: We mentioned he was great in college and I thought 2501 01:50:06,600 --> 01:50:09,080 Speaker 15: he was gonna make it him the pros. But just whatever, 2502 01:50:09,439 --> 01:50:13,360 Speaker 15: things just his career just went away quickly. So I 2503 01:50:13,439 --> 01:50:15,960 Speaker 15: just thought he had a raw deal, didn't get the 2504 01:50:16,920 --> 01:50:19,880 Speaker 15: I guess the other training in Pros to make him a. 2505 01:50:19,920 --> 01:50:23,000 Speaker 3: Better guy, went to a bad organization. Well, that didn't help. 2506 01:50:23,160 --> 01:50:25,640 Speaker 2: And the fact his development as a passer just never 2507 01:50:25,800 --> 01:50:27,640 Speaker 2: was never there kind of what we're talking about with 2508 01:50:27,720 --> 01:50:29,880 Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson. Now, Anthony richards was a better passer than 2509 01:50:29,920 --> 01:50:32,360 Speaker 2: Torell Prior was at that point. But guys have to 2510 01:50:32,400 --> 01:50:34,400 Speaker 2: put in that personal work and actually go up and 2511 01:50:34,479 --> 01:50:37,240 Speaker 2: develop their skills and talents, and Torel Prior, unfortunately at 2512 01:50:37,240 --> 01:50:39,479 Speaker 2: the quarterback position, just wasn't able to do it. 2513 01:50:39,560 --> 01:50:42,760 Speaker 4: Wait, Mark, did you say Mark Aguire from the NBA? Yes, 2514 01:50:42,880 --> 01:50:46,040 Speaker 4: because he ended up with Detroit, right, he was a 2515 01:50:46,160 --> 01:50:49,200 Speaker 4: bad boy. Yeah, and while he didn't score as much, 2516 01:50:49,680 --> 01:50:51,639 Speaker 4: I think he got at least one of those rings 2517 01:50:51,680 --> 01:50:53,360 Speaker 4: they won those back to back years. 2518 01:50:53,479 --> 01:50:54,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, was he okay? 2519 01:50:54,920 --> 01:50:55,120 Speaker 5: Yeah? 2520 01:50:55,200 --> 01:50:58,519 Speaker 3: Because he came from Dallas, right, I'm not sure where. 2521 01:50:58,560 --> 01:51:01,000 Speaker 15: I just know he was a DePaul guy from Chicago, 2522 01:51:01,080 --> 01:51:03,000 Speaker 15: and then he got to the pros and I thought 2523 01:51:03,040 --> 01:51:05,240 Speaker 15: he was great, and I just thought he could have 2524 01:51:05,320 --> 01:51:07,479 Speaker 15: got a better deal. 2525 01:51:07,560 --> 01:51:10,519 Speaker 3: I thought he didn't get to the highest of highs. Well, 2526 01:51:10,560 --> 01:51:11,000 Speaker 3: he's a pro. 2527 01:51:11,280 --> 01:51:14,760 Speaker 4: You were right, because early years with Dallas, I mean 2528 01:51:15,240 --> 01:51:18,440 Speaker 4: he was averaging thirty per game. He kind of sacrificed 2529 01:51:18,479 --> 01:51:21,800 Speaker 4: his scoring to win in Detroit and take on that 2530 01:51:21,880 --> 01:51:24,800 Speaker 4: defensive mindset with the bad boys and Bill Lambert choking 2531 01:51:24,840 --> 01:51:25,599 Speaker 4: everybody out back. 2532 01:51:25,680 --> 01:51:27,000 Speaker 2: Then you know, you know, I got another one that 2533 01:51:27,080 --> 01:51:29,920 Speaker 2: just popped into my head as I'm looking at your 2534 01:51:30,040 --> 01:51:32,439 Speaker 2: white Sox hat over there, Mark, Oh, I'm thinking of 2535 01:51:32,520 --> 01:51:35,160 Speaker 2: a Chicago cub and I'm thinking of Bernie Banks. 2536 01:51:35,400 --> 01:51:37,000 Speaker 3: Ernie Banks, one of the great players in the history 2537 01:51:37,000 --> 01:51:39,200 Speaker 3: of the sport, never made the playoffs. That's a raw deal. 2538 01:51:39,280 --> 01:51:41,000 Speaker 3: We talked about that a couple of weeks ago. 2539 01:51:41,200 --> 01:51:43,800 Speaker 4: Never made the postseason a day single, good home runs, 2540 01:51:43,840 --> 01:51:45,840 Speaker 4: but never was on a team to get to the 2541 01:51:45,880 --> 01:51:47,799 Speaker 4: playoff or get anywhere close to anything. 2542 01:51:47,920 --> 01:51:49,559 Speaker 3: That is the rawlest of raw deals. 2543 01:51:49,560 --> 01:51:51,439 Speaker 2: That you can get to play for an organization for 2544 01:51:51,520 --> 01:51:53,439 Speaker 2: what twenty years or something like that and not even 2545 01:51:53,439 --> 01:51:54,240 Speaker 2: sniff the playoffs. 2546 01:51:54,280 --> 01:51:55,439 Speaker 3: One time. That's hard to do. 2547 01:51:56,040 --> 01:52:00,400 Speaker 4: That's a disservice to him and the league not being 2548 01:52:00,439 --> 01:52:03,400 Speaker 4: able to see that talent on the biggest stage, which 2549 01:52:03,400 --> 01:52:05,120 Speaker 4: I think we paralleled with Mike Truck. 2550 01:52:05,000 --> 01:52:06,639 Speaker 3: Mike Trout. Yeah, thats where we're talking about. A couple 2551 01:52:06,640 --> 01:52:08,719 Speaker 3: of weeks ago, our guy Eloy from Compton. 2552 01:52:08,800 --> 01:52:11,040 Speaker 4: By the way, his weight in. Tell me if you 2553 01:52:11,120 --> 01:52:13,000 Speaker 4: think this guy got a raw deal, I think there's 2554 01:52:13,040 --> 01:52:17,719 Speaker 4: something to it. The Rosen one, Josh Rosen got drafted 2555 01:52:17,760 --> 01:52:21,840 Speaker 4: by the Cardinals. He was all the rage at UCLA, 2556 01:52:22,240 --> 01:52:25,280 Speaker 4: even though it's not like it amounted to him doing 2557 01:52:25,439 --> 01:52:27,360 Speaker 4: that much, but he projected to. 2558 01:52:27,400 --> 01:52:28,920 Speaker 3: The pro player. 2559 01:52:29,000 --> 01:52:30,640 Speaker 2: I mean that come back against Texas A and m 2560 01:52:30,680 --> 01:52:32,519 Speaker 2: on opening weekend was pretty epic. 2561 01:52:32,960 --> 01:52:36,879 Speaker 4: Fair in the pros. Though he got passed over pretty quick. 2562 01:52:36,920 --> 01:52:39,040 Speaker 3: After one year. They drafted Kyler Murray. They had very 2563 01:52:39,120 --> 01:52:41,439 Speaker 3: next season. Yeah, and then he bounced around. He ended 2564 01:52:41,520 --> 01:52:43,640 Speaker 3: up in Miami. Yeah, Josh Rosen, yep. 2565 01:52:44,040 --> 01:52:46,719 Speaker 4: So he didn't exactly get it much of a runway 2566 01:52:47,160 --> 01:52:47,920 Speaker 4: to show what he could do. 2567 01:52:48,120 --> 01:52:50,600 Speaker 2: But again, if you're talented enough and humble enough, and 2568 01:52:50,640 --> 01:52:53,280 Speaker 2: there are questions about his humility and how we approached 2569 01:52:53,280 --> 01:52:54,000 Speaker 2: certain things, and. 2570 01:52:54,080 --> 01:52:55,920 Speaker 3: Because he had a hot tub and a dorm room. 2571 01:52:56,040 --> 01:52:58,719 Speaker 2: Well not only that that he could be a little 2572 01:52:58,760 --> 01:53:01,240 Speaker 2: smug and air again and talking about being the smartest 2573 01:53:01,240 --> 01:53:02,880 Speaker 2: person in the room, and they kind of rubbed people 2574 01:53:02,920 --> 01:53:04,800 Speaker 2: the wrong way. So if you're gonna be that way, 2575 01:53:05,240 --> 01:53:06,960 Speaker 2: if you're gonna be that, if you're gonna be that way, 2576 01:53:07,000 --> 01:53:09,920 Speaker 2: you better be Aaron Rodgers. If you're not Aaron Rodgers, 2577 01:53:10,080 --> 01:53:12,640 Speaker 2: you could end up being in the XFL or the 2578 01:53:12,760 --> 01:53:13,720 Speaker 2: UFL or something right now. 2579 01:53:13,760 --> 01:53:15,320 Speaker 3: If that's even where Josh Rosen is. I don't even 2580 01:53:15,320 --> 01:53:16,040 Speaker 3: know where he is right now. 2581 01:53:16,280 --> 01:53:18,519 Speaker 4: Personality did him in, Yeah, didn't help him. 2582 01:53:18,560 --> 01:53:21,360 Speaker 3: I think he's working an enterprise. Nothing wrong with that, nothing. 2583 01:53:21,439 --> 01:53:24,320 Speaker 4: I just I thought I saw him in a commercial recently. 2584 01:53:24,320 --> 01:53:26,639 Speaker 3: I don't know.
