0:00:07.240 --> 0:00:10.160
<v Speaker 2>Dan That's Dan Patrick Show. Mike Florio from Pro Football

0:00:10.280 --> 0:00:13.239
<v Speaker 2>Talk Live will join us. He was the first to

0:00:13.320 --> 0:00:16.520
<v Speaker 2>suggest that maybe Kirk Cousins was going to play for

0:00:16.560 --> 0:00:19.560
<v Speaker 2>the Falcons because he said that he was hearing from

0:00:19.600 --> 0:00:23.040
<v Speaker 2>some insiders or some people who had some information Kirk

0:00:23.040 --> 0:00:25.560
<v Speaker 2>Cousins was going to move his family to Atlanta, where

0:00:25.560 --> 0:00:28.040
<v Speaker 2>his wife is from, and then we started to piece

0:00:28.080 --> 0:00:30.880
<v Speaker 2>it together that maybe he could end up with the Falcons,

0:00:30.880 --> 0:00:34.080
<v Speaker 2>which is what happened yesterday. We'll talk to Mike about

0:00:34.159 --> 0:00:37.640
<v Speaker 2>that move and some of the other ones, and Saquon

0:00:37.680 --> 0:00:41.400
<v Speaker 2>Barkley going to the Eagles, Josh Jacobs, Xavier McKinney going

0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:46.000
<v Speaker 2>to the Packers, and the Giants, Land Brian Burns from Carolina. Boy,

0:00:46.000 --> 0:00:48.239
<v Speaker 2>do they they're going to put even more pressure on

0:00:48.280 --> 0:00:51.640
<v Speaker 2>Bryce Young in Carolina. Go out there and outscore people.

0:00:51.840 --> 0:00:53.960
<v Speaker 2>Even though you can't score, then you don't have any

0:00:54.000 --> 0:00:57.360
<v Speaker 2>weapons other than that. Eight seven seven three DP Show

0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:04.560
<v Speaker 2>If you're watching on Peacock our streaming partner and our

0:01:04.680 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 2>radio affiliates numbering over four hundred cities in America. The

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:13.360
<v Speaker 2>PGA Tour is going to TPC Sawgrass, the Players Championship

0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:17.000
<v Speaker 2>that starts on Thursday at one Eastern on Golf Channel,

0:01:17.400 --> 0:01:22.520
<v Speaker 2>NBC and Peacock. We'll bring in Cheeki Barber here. In

0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:25.120
<v Speaker 2>a moment the Giants All Pro running back, he had

0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:28.759
<v Speaker 2>some words to say to Saquon Barkley, or at least

0:01:28.800 --> 0:01:30.960
<v Speaker 2>on his radio show. I'm going to take you back

0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:34.800
<v Speaker 2>to March seventh, when we got the possibility that maybe

0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:38.039
<v Speaker 2>Saquon Barkley could end up in Philadelphia, And here is

0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:41.559
<v Speaker 2>Tiki on his radio show on WFA and in New York.

0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:47.120
<v Speaker 3>The fact that Saquon would even contemplate going to play

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:52.520
<v Speaker 3>for that team in Philadelphia is insulting to his giant

0:01:52.720 --> 0:01:55.760
<v Speaker 3>history and legacy. Saquon very well not be a New

0:01:55.800 --> 0:01:58.760
<v Speaker 3>York Giant. I know that Joe Shane is having conversations,

0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:01.120
<v Speaker 3>but it just doesn't feel like it's going to work out.

0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:05.760
<v Speaker 3>Go to Baltimore, go to Houston, go to LA Chargers.

0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:08.760
<v Speaker 3>Do not go to the Philadelphia Eagles. Because if you do,

0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:13.040
<v Speaker 3>that appreciation and respect and reverence that we all have

0:02:13.200 --> 0:02:15.960
<v Speaker 3>for you, Saquon will be lost.

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:20.639
<v Speaker 2>Bring in Tiki Barber. This is just good local radio content.

0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:24.760
<v Speaker 2>Saquon Barkley didn't take it that way. Good morning, Tiki.

0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:27.160
<v Speaker 2>How would you sum up this back and forth?

0:02:27.880 --> 0:02:29.880
<v Speaker 4>No, I don't think it's really a back and forth.

0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:32.200
<v Speaker 5>Then, as you know, being in the industry as long

0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:35.880
<v Speaker 5>as you have been, our job is to entertain, to inform,

0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:39.320
<v Speaker 5>and sometimes get a little bit visceral because that's how

0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:41.880
<v Speaker 5>the fan is and they want to express themselves, but

0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:43.760
<v Speaker 5>they don't often get a chance to call in and

0:02:44.280 --> 0:02:46.519
<v Speaker 5>talk about it, so we do it for them. And look,

0:02:46.560 --> 0:02:49.840
<v Speaker 5>that's how Giant fans were feeling about Saquon Barkley. I

0:02:50.000 --> 0:02:52.160
<v Speaker 5>just happened to be the messenger that got the shrapnel

0:02:52.160 --> 0:02:52.760
<v Speaker 5>from Saquon.

0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:55.000
<v Speaker 4>We decided to respond to the One Day's story.

0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:58.600
<v Speaker 2>Are you going to respond to his response where he

0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:01.760
<v Speaker 2>says that you've been a hater's he got to New York. Well,

0:03:01.840 --> 0:03:04.240
<v Speaker 2>the jed to me talk, don't smile in my face

0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:06.640
<v Speaker 2>when you see me, I smile.

0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:08.799
<v Speaker 5>And everybody, Dan, you know that you've beten me a

0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:12.960
<v Speaker 5>couple of times.

0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:17.280
<v Speaker 4>It's it's part of the job. It's part of the.

0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:22.200
<v Speaker 5>I think reaction that comes from from athletes who think

0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:25.520
<v Speaker 5>the media is always against them. But the reality is

0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:28.000
<v Speaker 5>Giant fans loved the Saquon Barklay. It just felt like

0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:29.880
<v Speaker 5>it wasn't going to work out, and now we have

0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:32.640
<v Speaker 5>to worry about him running all over us for the

0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:35.280
<v Speaker 5>next three or four years down in Philadelphia, and that

0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:38.840
<v Speaker 5>pains us. It really does, and it pains me. So,

0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:41.400
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I still like saque I wish him nothing

0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:43.360
<v Speaker 5>but luck, but he also has to realize that my

0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:45.640
<v Speaker 5>job for the last seventeen years has not been to

0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:46.320
<v Speaker 5>be in a locker room.

0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:48.920
<v Speaker 4>It has been to the voice of a fan on

0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:49.320
<v Speaker 4>the fan.

0:03:49.480 --> 0:03:51.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, but if he had gone to the Texans

0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 2>or Baltimore, how would you how would you have reacted?

0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:58.560
<v Speaker 4>We would have said, good luck, you know, have a

0:03:58.560 --> 0:03:59.000
<v Speaker 4>great time.

0:03:59.040 --> 0:03:59.280
<v Speaker 6>T J.

0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:04.280
<v Speaker 5>Strouds and quarterback Demiko Rions is a fantastic young head coach.

0:04:04.520 --> 0:04:06.280
<v Speaker 5>You're gonna have a ton of success and it's far

0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:08.440
<v Speaker 5>enough away from us, but we're not gonna feel it.

0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:10.600
<v Speaker 5>I think part of the issue Hereda is we're gonna

0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:13.600
<v Speaker 5>feel this and when they have success, when him and

0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:18.239
<v Speaker 5>DeVante Smith and AJ Brown and Jalen Hurts start wrecking

0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:20.880
<v Speaker 5>havoc on the NFC East again. We're gonna see it,

0:04:20.920 --> 0:04:22.720
<v Speaker 5>We're gonna feel it. It's gonna be right there, and

0:04:22.760 --> 0:04:24.919
<v Speaker 5>it's gonna make us. It's gonna bring us back to

0:04:24.960 --> 0:04:28.159
<v Speaker 5>this moment where he chose the Evils despite not being

0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:30.039
<v Speaker 5>able to get a job a deal done with the

0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:32.760
<v Speaker 5>New York Giants. It's not his fault, obviously, it seems

0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:36.359
<v Speaker 5>like Joe shange priorities or elsewhere and restructuring this team,

0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:39.080
<v Speaker 5>obviously starting with the offensive line and the defensive line,

0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:41.359
<v Speaker 5>which I think is core to any good organization.

0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:42.760
<v Speaker 4>But it's just close.

0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:45.200
<v Speaker 5>It's down the turnpike right, We're gonna see him, and

0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:46.440
<v Speaker 5>we're gonna see him twice a year.

0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:49.120
<v Speaker 2>I think the Giants made a smart move. I think

0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:51.359
<v Speaker 2>Saquan made a smart move. If I put you in

0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:53.840
<v Speaker 2>his position, that you know this team is going to

0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:57.640
<v Speaker 2>be rebuilding and you had this opportunity even though it's

0:04:57.640 --> 0:05:02.120
<v Speaker 2>your bitter rival. Let's play hypothetical running back here, Tiki,

0:05:02.960 --> 0:05:03.359
<v Speaker 2>you know this.

0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:06.440
<v Speaker 5>You know I played ten years. I was a Giant

0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:09.360
<v Speaker 5>for life. There's no way, no way I was.

0:05:09.320 --> 0:05:11.719
<v Speaker 2>Never Let's say they didn't want you. Let's say they

0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:14.000
<v Speaker 2>wanted to move on. They didn't want to pay you

0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:16.800
<v Speaker 2>what you thought you were worth, and they didn't want

0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:17.200
<v Speaker 2>to pay me.

0:05:17.160 --> 0:05:17.640
<v Speaker 4>What I was.

0:05:20.000 --> 0:05:22.800
<v Speaker 5>Guaranteed money to your guarantee you more than I mean,

0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:27.200
<v Speaker 5>I didn't want to pay me. So I know this.

0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:29.479
<v Speaker 5>I didn't have any leverage. I didn't want any leverage

0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:31.440
<v Speaker 5>because they knew I wanted to stay. They knew I

0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:33.520
<v Speaker 5>wanted to be in New York. They knew the relationship

0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:37.120
<v Speaker 5>that I had with the organization, both mayors and the tishes,

0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:39.880
<v Speaker 5>and a fan base whether they loved me or hated me.

0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:43.640
<v Speaker 5>At certain points in my career, I was never going anywhere.

0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:45.520
<v Speaker 5>I knew how important it was to me to be

0:05:45.560 --> 0:05:48.239
<v Speaker 5>a giant for life, and I think Saquon did as well.

0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:52.520
<v Speaker 5>Until the money wasn't there, I mean, went anywhere except

0:05:52.520 --> 0:05:54.960
<v Speaker 5>the one place we didn't need them to go one place.

0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:57.719
<v Speaker 2>Okay, then, how much loyalty should players have?

0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:02.960
<v Speaker 5>It's changed so much because you know this, Dan, The

0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:06.279
<v Speaker 5>money gap has been has gotten enormous. Right, the amount

0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:11.000
<v Speaker 5>of resources that are now gold out to players. Money

0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:15.120
<v Speaker 5>has to be a primary concern because loyalty doesn't exist.

0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:17.279
<v Speaker 4>I mean, say Quon said this, and you know earlier

0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:18.839
<v Speaker 4>this year and talking.

0:06:18.520 --> 0:06:22.000
<v Speaker 5>About the franchise tag loyalty isn't as important as it

0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:24.159
<v Speaker 5>used to be. But I would pose it Dan, that

0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:30.200
<v Speaker 5>rivalry has to mean something right the core of why

0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:31.320
<v Speaker 5>a sport matters.

0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:35.479
<v Speaker 4>It's not just going out and entertaining and being hunky

0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:37.440
<v Speaker 4>dory with one another. When it's over. It has to

0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:38.640
<v Speaker 4>mean something more than that.

0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:40.880
<v Speaker 5>At least that's what the fan thinks, and so I

0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:43.720
<v Speaker 5>think sometimes there is a disconnect between the player and

0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:46.000
<v Speaker 5>the fan. Part of that's obviously because they're on the

0:06:46.000 --> 0:06:48.080
<v Speaker 5>field and the fan is not, But it has to

0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:51.240
<v Speaker 5>mean something. Rivalry has to be important otherwise what the

0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:52.080
<v Speaker 5>hell are we doing it for?

0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:55.760
<v Speaker 2>What would you say if you see Saquon Barkley. When

0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:57.400
<v Speaker 2>you see Saquon Barkley.

0:06:57.560 --> 0:06:59.480
<v Speaker 5>I'm sure I will see him, I'll say good luck,

0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:02.839
<v Speaker 5>and as you know, I'm happy for his career. You know,

0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:06.440
<v Speaker 5>it's just a series of unfortunate events that allow his

0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:09.240
<v Speaker 5>giant career not to work out that everyone had envisioned

0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:12.520
<v Speaker 5>in Glenning Dave Getleman when he second.

0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:16.080
<v Speaker 2>Overall, my worry is that he might run into your

0:07:16.080 --> 0:07:19.280
<v Speaker 2>brother Ronde and then punch him, thinking that he was

0:07:19.480 --> 0:07:23.360
<v Speaker 2>punching you. So that's Ronnie's a Hall of Famer.

0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:25.120
<v Speaker 4>Now, all right, you can't punch a hall of fame.

0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:29.320
<v Speaker 2>He's a made man in the mafia. I can't. You

0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:30.360
<v Speaker 2>can't punch all.

0:07:30.600 --> 0:07:31.520
<v Speaker 4>That's exactly right.

0:07:32.040 --> 0:07:34.120
<v Speaker 2>Well, you did your job about.

0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:36.160
<v Speaker 4>Mafia, you did. Don't mess with him, you.

0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:36.760
<v Speaker 2>Did your job.

0:07:37.440 --> 0:07:37.640
<v Speaker 4>You know.

0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:40.280
<v Speaker 2>Did you invite him on the show today?

0:07:43.200 --> 0:07:47.720
<v Speaker 4>We have not. We should? Yeah, should results, yes, you know,

0:07:47.720 --> 0:07:48.680
<v Speaker 4>it's funny. It's funny.

0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:51.080
<v Speaker 5>Paul Schwartz, you know, and New rorkrot Paul Schwartz once

0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:53.080
<v Speaker 5>told me this is what I was playing.

0:07:53.760 --> 0:07:55.040
<v Speaker 4>Never react to the one.

0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:57.320
<v Speaker 5>Day story, because you're making a two day story, a

0:07:57.360 --> 0:07:59.760
<v Speaker 5>three day story, a four day story, and then it

0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:01.320
<v Speaker 5>goes on and on and on and on.

0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:02.360
<v Speaker 4>And he was right.

0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:05.040
<v Speaker 5>And I'd love to get on and talk to Saquon

0:08:05.120 --> 0:08:07.360
<v Speaker 5>because it's not personal. All the things that we talk about,

0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:09.800
<v Speaker 5>the emotion that we have, the information that we give,

0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:12.720
<v Speaker 5>the entertainment, the visco reactions, it's never personal. It's just

0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:15.080
<v Speaker 5>what the fan is all about. And that's what my

0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:16.360
<v Speaker 5>job is to serve as fan.

0:08:17.320 --> 0:08:20.920
<v Speaker 2>Great to talk to you is always thanks for joining us. TEK. Likewise,

0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:23.960
<v Speaker 2>Dan b Will, that's Tiki Barber, former Giants running back

0:08:24.120 --> 0:08:28.400
<v Speaker 2>and he is the co host Afternoons on w Fan

0:08:28.800 --> 0:08:31.800
<v Speaker 2>Evan in Tiki starts at to Eastern. Hey, you got

0:08:31.800 --> 0:08:34.839
<v Speaker 2>to reach out to Saquon Barkley. We did. We wanted

0:08:34.880 --> 0:08:39.000
<v Speaker 2>to have him on and Tiki decided to join us.

0:08:40.200 --> 0:08:43.920
<v Speaker 2>He's doing his job. Tiki did his job. We may

0:08:43.960 --> 0:08:46.720
<v Speaker 2>not like it because he's calling out somebody for loyalty

0:08:46.760 --> 0:08:48.880
<v Speaker 2>and you can't go to your bitter rival. I get

0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:52.600
<v Speaker 2>all of that, But in today's game and he's speaking

0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:55.800
<v Speaker 2>for the fan, he's speaking to the Giants fan base,

0:08:56.480 --> 0:08:58.520
<v Speaker 2>and of course they're going to want to hear this.

0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:03.360
<v Speaker 2>If he have said, hey, I Giants didn't want him,

0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:06.600
<v Speaker 2>I don't blame him. I'd go to the Eagles. He'd

0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:09.680
<v Speaker 2>probably stir up, you know, emotions as well. But you're

0:09:09.679 --> 0:09:11.920
<v Speaker 2>playing to the home crowd. You're pandering to the home

0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:15.480
<v Speaker 2>crowd by saying, I don't know if you know, Saquon

0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:18.800
<v Speaker 2>is leaving his legacy behind. I don't know what his

0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:21.520
<v Speaker 2>legacy is like. You want to be a Giant from

0:09:21.559 --> 0:09:24.920
<v Speaker 2>start to finish, okay, but I think there has to

0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:28.240
<v Speaker 2>be you got to meet somewhere in the middle, and

0:09:28.280 --> 0:09:30.280
<v Speaker 2>it didn't feel like that. I think the Giants made

0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:34.840
<v Speaker 2>the right decision. They're not doing anything this year, probably

0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:37.520
<v Speaker 2>not next year. Why do you want to spend on

0:09:37.679 --> 0:09:40.360
<v Speaker 2>that unless you go we got to have an identity,

0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:42.400
<v Speaker 2>We have to have a personality we could put on

0:09:42.440 --> 0:09:47.040
<v Speaker 2>the program. Well, you got Brian Burns. Now you spend

0:09:47.080 --> 0:09:49.680
<v Speaker 2>a lot of money on him, and you got Danny Dimes.

0:09:51.160 --> 0:09:53.360
<v Speaker 2>Good luck, Yes boy, Yeah, you're right.

0:09:53.400 --> 0:09:56.040
<v Speaker 7>It's almost like premature to ding Saquon for this. He's

0:09:56.080 --> 0:09:58.600
<v Speaker 7>not a giant legend. He didn't lead in a Super Bowl.

0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:01.040
<v Speaker 7>Michael Strahan at thirty seve there's stories here that he

0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:03.079
<v Speaker 7>wanted to play one more year and he wanted to

0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:05.719
<v Speaker 7>play for the Giants, and they let him. They played him.

0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:08.680
<v Speaker 7>He was still a solid player. But imagine if thirty

0:10:08.679 --> 0:10:11.240
<v Speaker 7>six year old Michael Strahan only had an offer from

0:10:11.280 --> 0:10:13.319
<v Speaker 7>a rival, he may have been a guy.

0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:14.920
<v Speaker 8>Said no, no, no, I'll go to the media a.

0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:17.559
<v Speaker 7>Year early because that wouldn't work for my legacy in

0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:17.960
<v Speaker 7>New York.

0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:20.120
<v Speaker 9>Yeah.

0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:22.760
<v Speaker 2>I get it. You know it's your hated rival, and

0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:25.080
<v Speaker 2>as a Giants fan, you don't want it like I

0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:28.560
<v Speaker 2>think now, it's we hate that we lost him, and

0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:30.320
<v Speaker 2>we hated even more that he's going to come back

0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:33.040
<v Speaker 2>and haunt us. Get that's really what this is all about.

0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:36.280
<v Speaker 2>If he went to Baltimore, he went to Houston, nobody

0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:38.439
<v Speaker 2>would care in New York. But now you're going to

0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:40.640
<v Speaker 2>see him. Now he's going to come to your place

0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:43.000
<v Speaker 2>and you're probably going to boo it, yes, Marv.

0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:47.240
<v Speaker 10>And it's also because of the running back market where

0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:49.440
<v Speaker 10>no one else was offering him a three year deal.

0:10:49.640 --> 0:10:51.560
<v Speaker 10>Where he's like a three year deal for how much.

0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:54.200
<v Speaker 10>That's probably the best deal he definitely could have gotten.

0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:56.160
<v Speaker 10>And I think Paulie said this in our meeting off

0:10:56.360 --> 0:10:59.720
<v Speaker 10>off Mike A. If the agent says he we got

0:10:59.760 --> 0:11:01.880
<v Speaker 10>three year, thirty seven million, I don't care what the

0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:04.600
<v Speaker 10>team is, I don't care who it is, say yes

0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:06.040
<v Speaker 10>right now, it doesn't matter.

0:11:06.160 --> 0:11:09.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he made the right decision. He went where he

0:11:09.720 --> 0:11:12.200
<v Speaker 2>was going to get the best deal. I think it

0:11:12.240 --> 0:11:15.400
<v Speaker 2>was a win win on both. But it's tricky with

0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:19.040
<v Speaker 2>that word loyalty because that everybody has an opinion on it.

0:11:19.080 --> 0:11:21.760
<v Speaker 2>Feels like we were talking about kirk Cousin. Now did

0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:24.439
<v Speaker 2>kirk Cousins turn his back If kirk Cousins had gone

0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:28.160
<v Speaker 2>to well, they don't have an opening in Detroit or sure,

0:11:28.200 --> 0:11:32.080
<v Speaker 2>let's say went Chicago. Would they say, oh, your legacy,

0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:35.800
<v Speaker 2>you turn your back if they offered you a better deal,

0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:38.880
<v Speaker 2>I can't begrudge you. And I think that's what we

0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:42.640
<v Speaker 2>don't factor in. How does this help that person better

0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:46.720
<v Speaker 2>their life or their family. We just look at it.

0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:49.200
<v Speaker 2>You know, it's a myopic view. It's about us and

0:11:49.240 --> 0:11:51.400
<v Speaker 2>our fan base and how dare you do that we

0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:54.160
<v Speaker 2>hate the Eagles. If he went to Baltimore, no one

0:11:54.200 --> 0:11:56.040
<v Speaker 2>would care. Yes, Tod, And it's not like.

0:11:56.040 --> 0:11:58.120
<v Speaker 11>The player's tongue, the agent. These are the teams that

0:11:58.160 --> 0:11:59.439
<v Speaker 11>there has to be someone in the division.

0:11:59.559 --> 0:12:00.000
<v Speaker 12>I want to know.

0:12:00.000 --> 0:12:01.520
<v Speaker 11>I only leave because they're not giving me my money

0:12:01.559 --> 0:12:03.200
<v Speaker 11>and respect. I want to stick it to them by

0:12:03.240 --> 0:12:05.480
<v Speaker 11>playing them twice. That's not the case at all. It

0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:07.200
<v Speaker 11>could be the Eagles, that could have been any team.

0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:09.440
<v Speaker 11>He wasn't looking to go to the Eagles or stay

0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:10.680
<v Speaker 11>in the NFC East to just want.

0:12:10.559 --> 0:12:12.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I don't know if he said I only want

0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:14.000
<v Speaker 2>to go to the NFC East so I can stick

0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:17.440
<v Speaker 2>it to the Giants, because the Cowboys were probably interested

0:12:17.440 --> 0:12:17.880
<v Speaker 2>as well.

0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:20.200
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, Poem, you could look at show, Hey, Otani. He

0:12:20.240 --> 0:12:22.600
<v Speaker 7>may have wanted to at some point be loyal to

0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:25.760
<v Speaker 7>the Angels. They took him first, let him pitch and hit.

0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:28.040
<v Speaker 7>You know, I bet you there was a point in

0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:29.560
<v Speaker 7>his career or he and his agent where he was like,

0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:30.319
<v Speaker 7>let's stay.

0:12:30.120 --> 0:12:30.840
<v Speaker 8>With the Angels.

0:12:31.120 --> 0:12:33.240
<v Speaker 7>But they gave no reason to the Dodgers of the

0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:35.520
<v Speaker 7>place where you're going to play in October deep in October.

0:12:35.679 --> 0:12:37.920
<v Speaker 8>They could pay more, they have a bigger exposure it.

0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:40.199
<v Speaker 7>Even if there's some loyalty in on Tani's part, that

0:12:40.240 --> 0:12:42.800
<v Speaker 7>would be a tough one to be loyal in that situation.

0:12:43.520 --> 0:12:48.200
<v Speaker 2>I mentioned that kirk Cousins has one playoff win in

0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:54.679
<v Speaker 2>his career, and he's made what close to two hundred

0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:57.160
<v Speaker 2>and eighty million, two hundred and seventy million dollars in

0:12:57.200 --> 0:12:59.959
<v Speaker 2>his career. He'll make over four hundred million dollars when

0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:03.079
<v Speaker 2>he's all done. Forty two quarterbacks in the Super Bowl

0:13:03.120 --> 0:13:10.240
<v Speaker 2>era have only one playoff win. Forty two quarterbacks have

0:13:10.320 --> 0:13:14.080
<v Speaker 2>one playoff win. Here is the group that Kirk Cousins

0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:18.920

<v Speaker 14>Uh, better move the Falcons, signing cousins or the Vikings,

0:15:05.880 --> 0:15:09.680
<v Speaker 14>letting Kirk go. Right now, it's at fifty five percent Falcons.

0:15:10.520 --> 0:15:14.040
<v Speaker 14>I like the positivity today. Yeah, that's nice. Yeah, that's nice.

0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:15.720
<v Speaker 2>I like how they make it seem like now he

0:15:15.840 --> 0:15:18.440
<v Speaker 2>has some weapons to work with. Yeah, I mean he's

0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:22.600
<v Speaker 2>had some weapons in Minnesota, that dome weapons. Oh I know,

0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:25.640
<v Speaker 2>I mean this is it for him? And I said, well,

0:15:26.200 --> 0:15:29.920
<v Speaker 2>he had justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison in a dome.

0:15:30.600 --> 0:15:32.920
<v Speaker 2>Now he's going to go to another dome and he's

0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:37.360
<v Speaker 2>got two receivers who are less accomplished. Although I love

0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:40.640
<v Speaker 2>Jon Robinson. So man, now he's got some weapons. Yeah,

0:15:40.880 --> 0:15:43.160
<v Speaker 2>now we can see what. Now, let's see what we'll

0:15:43.160 --> 0:15:48.640
<v Speaker 2>do with some weapons around him. Okay, that sounded like, uh,

0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:54.840
<v Speaker 2>who's our insider, Jimmy Jimmerson. Yeh yeah, it's a little

0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:59.280
<v Speaker 2>yeah from a generic sports guy voice. I guess let's

0:15:59.320 --> 0:16:01.680
<v Speaker 2>go to Jimmy, jim Jimmy, what do you think about

0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:03.040
<v Speaker 2>Kirk Cousins going to Atlanta?

0:16:03.080 --> 0:16:05.840
<v Speaker 14>Okay, right now they're excited about let's see what Kirk

0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:07.320
<v Speaker 14>can do with these weapons around him.

0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:09.240
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so going to be playing indoor?

0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:11.440
<v Speaker 14>Do you know he loves now he's finally got some

0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:15.680
<v Speaker 14>weapons to maybe match that salary that he's commanding.

0:16:15.760 --> 0:16:19.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay, thank you, Jimmy, it's Jimmy Jimmerson. All right, let

0:16:19.800 --> 0:16:22.400
<v Speaker 2>me take a break. Mike Florio. How the Vikings are

0:16:22.440 --> 0:16:25.160
<v Speaker 2>wondering what they're going to be doing. Mike Florio will

0:16:25.240 --> 0:16:28.840
<v Speaker 2>join us next, trying to make sense of everything that happened.

0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Who had a great day, who had the best day

0:16:31.120 --> 0:16:34.160
<v Speaker 2>yesterday and who had the worst day. What are the

0:16:34.200 --> 0:16:36.960
<v Speaker 2>Cowboys doing if they're all in this season? As Jerry

0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:39.920
<v Speaker 2>Jones has said, what are they doing? I guess they're

0:16:39.960 --> 0:16:43.400
<v Speaker 2>all in maybe with the draft and where's Derrick Henry

0:16:43.560 --> 0:16:45.360
<v Speaker 2>justin fields? Where will they end up? So we'll talk

0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:48.120

<v Speaker 13>get your podcast from.

0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:46.680
<v Speaker 2>More phone calls coming up. Look, Tiki Barber's doing his job.

0:17:47.400 --> 0:17:50.560
<v Speaker 2>He's a former Giant great and he's speaking from the

0:17:50.640 --> 0:17:55.440
<v Speaker 2>perspective of his fan base. The Giants fans upset that

0:17:55.800 --> 0:17:59.000
<v Speaker 2>he left and he's going to the Eagles. He left

0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:01.040
<v Speaker 2>and he got a better deal. He made a smart

0:18:01.200 --> 0:18:05.800
<v Speaker 2>business decision. He's business and the fans are talking about

0:18:05.960 --> 0:18:08.840
<v Speaker 2>just being a fan. It's personal to them, it's business

0:18:08.920 --> 0:18:12.879
<v Speaker 2>to Tiki, and I thought both sides made a smart

0:18:12.960 --> 0:18:16.600
<v Speaker 2>move here, springing Mike Florio Pro Football Talk Live co

0:18:16.800 --> 0:18:21.480
<v Speaker 2>host and contributed Football Night in America. Man Little vitriol.

0:18:21.560 --> 0:18:24.240
<v Speaker 2>It feels like from the Giants towards Tiki barber that

0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:28.120
<v Speaker 2>or towards Saquon that he made a good business decision.

0:18:28.800 --> 0:18:32.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm just surprised that the Eagles was this a real

0:18:32.280 --> 0:18:34.479
<v Speaker 2>need for them to get Saquon Barkley.

0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:37.080
<v Speaker 12>Well, I think Dan that.

0:18:38.560 --> 0:18:39.960
<v Speaker 6>The best way to build a team is from the

0:18:40.000 --> 0:18:42.520
<v Speaker 6>inside out. The Eagles already have their team built from

0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:45.320
<v Speaker 6>the inside out. Once you build from the inside out,

0:18:45.400 --> 0:18:47.920
<v Speaker 6>you can focus on the luxury pieces on the outside.

0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:49.720
<v Speaker 6>And for them to get a guy like Saquon Barkley

0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:53.399
<v Speaker 6>who can now have his full talents showcased and unleashed

0:18:54.040 --> 0:18:57.480
<v Speaker 6>on the Giants, I mean, that's what makes this so

0:18:57.920 --> 0:19:01.520
<v Speaker 6>emotional for Giants fans because look, folks, he was there

0:19:01.560 --> 0:19:04.440
<v Speaker 6>for six years. He never got a big payday from

0:19:04.520 --> 0:19:07.399
<v Speaker 6>the Giants. They never gave him a second contract. He

0:19:07.520 --> 0:19:09.040
<v Speaker 6>finished three years and became.

0:19:08.880 --> 0:19:10.479
<v Speaker 12>Eligible for one. He didn't get one.

0:19:10.520 --> 0:19:13.320
<v Speaker 6>Now he had injuries, but still after three years, four years,

0:19:13.440 --> 0:19:15.600
<v Speaker 6>five years, six years, they never gave him one.

0:19:15.840 --> 0:19:18.040
<v Speaker 12>The Eagles swoop in with the contract. The Giants never

0:19:18.119 --> 0:19:21.040
<v Speaker 12>gave him. What's he supposed to do? What's he supposed

0:19:21.080 --> 0:19:24.560
<v Speaker 12>to do? But it's the Eagles. They hate the Eagles,

0:19:24.720 --> 0:19:25.480
<v Speaker 12>they love the Giants.

0:19:25.520 --> 0:19:27.480
<v Speaker 6>It reminds me of the old Jerry Seinfeld bit about

0:19:27.560 --> 0:19:30.440
<v Speaker 6>all we're really doing is rooting for laundry. Once you

0:19:30.640 --> 0:19:33.400
<v Speaker 6>change into a different shirt, we hate you. When you're

0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:36.200
<v Speaker 6>in the right shirt, we love you. But now boo,

0:19:36.600 --> 0:19:38.720
<v Speaker 6>different shirt. That's why they're mad.

0:19:39.359 --> 0:19:41.520
<v Speaker 2>The team that had the best day yesterday is who.

0:19:43.240 --> 0:19:47.240
<v Speaker 6>Well, look, I'm a firm believer in being careful the

0:19:47.280 --> 0:19:49.440
<v Speaker 6>first day of free agency because how many times do

0:19:49.560 --> 0:19:52.800
<v Speaker 6>we actually look at one of these big spending days

0:19:52.920 --> 0:19:57.800
<v Speaker 6>and say, oh, wow, they've solved all their problems and

0:19:57.800 --> 0:19:59.600
<v Speaker 6>they're headed to the Super Bowl. But when you look

0:19:59.600 --> 0:20:04.920
<v Speaker 6>at the did with Saquon Barkley, with Bryce huff who

0:20:05.040 --> 0:20:07.040
<v Speaker 6>was one of the more underrated pass rushers in the

0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:09.080
<v Speaker 6>NFL had ten sacks last year and didn't start a

0:20:09.119 --> 0:20:10.560
<v Speaker 6>single game, had pressures.

0:20:10.560 --> 0:20:11.359
<v Speaker 12>According to the Next.

0:20:11.280 --> 0:20:14.000
<v Speaker 6>Gen stats like more than one out of every five

0:20:14.160 --> 0:20:16.440
<v Speaker 6>plays he had a pressure on the quarterback. This is

0:20:16.480 --> 0:20:20.280
<v Speaker 6>a team that's already really good and it's finding ways

0:20:20.440 --> 0:20:23.400
<v Speaker 6>to get better. Overpaying, yes, you always overpay the first

0:20:23.440 --> 0:20:25.679
<v Speaker 6>day of free agency. But when you're already an elite

0:20:25.720 --> 0:20:29.040
<v Speaker 6>team and you have the cap space to target guys

0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:31.200
<v Speaker 6>that make you better on both sides of the ball,

0:20:31.280 --> 0:20:31.679
<v Speaker 6>that's a win.

0:20:32.119 --> 0:20:34.720
<v Speaker 2>I thought Green Bay had a good day yesterday. What

0:20:34.840 --> 0:20:37.560
<v Speaker 2>do you think, Well, look, the.

0:20:37.600 --> 0:20:42.120
<v Speaker 6>Josh Jacobs move was stunning, and when you see four years,

0:20:42.160 --> 0:20:43.879
<v Speaker 6>forty eight million, you say, wow, that's a lot of

0:20:43.920 --> 0:20:46.000
<v Speaker 6>money for a guy that's got a lot of wear

0:20:46.040 --> 0:20:49.640
<v Speaker 6>and tear on the you know, on the frame from

0:20:49.680 --> 0:20:51.720
<v Speaker 6>the years in Las Vegas. But when you look at

0:20:51.760 --> 0:20:54.440
<v Speaker 6>the deal, it's just a one year commitment. Now they're

0:20:54.440 --> 0:20:56.280
<v Speaker 6>going to pay him a lot this first year and

0:20:56.359 --> 0:20:57.800
<v Speaker 6>then they can keep him for the second year. But

0:20:57.880 --> 0:21:00.399
<v Speaker 6>after that, if he's playing well, you keep him. But

0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:02.600
<v Speaker 6>this is what they need for that offense to fully

0:21:02.720 --> 0:21:05.920
<v Speaker 6>unleash Jordan Love. I mean, they've got something in Jordan Love,

0:21:06.160 --> 0:21:08.840
<v Speaker 6>and they've gone out and they've added pieces around him

0:21:08.880 --> 0:21:10.600
<v Speaker 6>now and they're they're trying to make their.

0:21:10.520 --> 0:21:11.520
<v Speaker 12>Move to be an elite team.

0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:13.480
<v Speaker 2>What are the Vikings doing?

0:21:15.000 --> 0:21:15.280
<v Speaker 12>Damned?

0:21:15.320 --> 0:21:18.520
<v Speaker 6>I find tho well and well, look a year ago,

0:21:19.359 --> 0:21:22.360
<v Speaker 6>the vibe that I picked up was let's just get

0:21:22.400 --> 0:21:26.000
<v Speaker 6>through this Kirk Cousins contract and then let's move on

0:21:26.240 --> 0:21:27.879
<v Speaker 6>to try to find a.

0:21:27.920 --> 0:21:29.159
<v Speaker 12>Long term answer with the position.

0:21:29.240 --> 0:21:32.640
<v Speaker 6>They haven't had a true franchise quarterback since fran tarkented

0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:35.320
<v Speaker 6>That's the truth. And Cousins is the first one to

0:21:35.400 --> 0:21:38.400
<v Speaker 6>start eight or more games every year for six straight

0:21:38.520 --> 0:21:41.480
<v Speaker 6>years since Cousins did it or Tarkenten did it for

0:21:41.560 --> 0:21:43.320
<v Speaker 6>seven straight years back in the seventies.

0:21:43.800 --> 0:21:45.440
<v Speaker 12>They want that long term guy.

0:21:46.080 --> 0:21:49.159
<v Speaker 6>And now I think what's gonna happen is with the

0:21:49.160 --> 0:21:52.280
<v Speaker 6>eleventh pick in the draft, they're possibly going to try

0:21:52.320 --> 0:21:54.240
<v Speaker 6>to move up, possibly stay put.

0:21:54.359 --> 0:21:55.760
<v Speaker 12>Sam Darnold is the bridge.

0:21:56.680 --> 0:21:58.679
<v Speaker 6>And you know, one of the realities that the Vikings

0:21:58.720 --> 0:22:01.359
<v Speaker 6>now have Kevin O'Connell gets the most out of whoever

0:22:01.480 --> 0:22:04.480
<v Speaker 6>you put in front of him. So what we saw

0:22:04.560 --> 0:22:07.719
<v Speaker 6>from Cousins the last couple of years is that O'Connell.

0:22:08.119 --> 0:22:11.000
<v Speaker 6>Can O'Connell do that with Sam Darnold? Will O'Connell be

0:22:11.119 --> 0:22:13.040
<v Speaker 6>doing it with whoever they draft? If they get the

0:22:13.080 --> 0:22:14.840
<v Speaker 6>guy they want. But I think that's been the play

0:22:14.880 --> 0:22:17.679
<v Speaker 6>all along. Too much money tied up in Cousins, Cousins

0:22:17.720 --> 0:22:20.440
<v Speaker 6>getting closer to forty. Time to try to find that

0:22:20.520 --> 0:22:23.480
<v Speaker 6>guy in his early twenties that can be the quarterback

0:22:23.680 --> 0:22:27.119
<v Speaker 6>for five, ten years, maybe longer.

0:22:27.119 --> 0:22:29.679
<v Speaker 12>You get an elite quarterback. That's how you compete for championships.

0:22:29.720 --> 0:22:30.560
<v Speaker 8>And the Vikings know that.

0:22:30.880 --> 0:22:33.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and I understand what the Vikings we're doing. A

0:22:33.040 --> 0:22:36.040
<v Speaker 2>guy coming off Achilles surgeries thirty five seem to be

0:22:36.119 --> 0:22:40.000
<v Speaker 2>thirty six, and you have weapons already there and you

0:22:40.040 --> 0:22:42.440
<v Speaker 2>haven't gotten very far. He's got one playoff win in

0:22:42.520 --> 0:22:44.080
<v Speaker 2>his career, and we're going to spend one hundred and

0:22:44.119 --> 0:22:47.440
<v Speaker 2>eighty million dollars or whatever it's going to be Atlanta.

0:22:48.400 --> 0:22:51.200
<v Speaker 2>What's Atlanta going to get? And how much better is

0:22:51.320 --> 0:22:52.640
<v Speaker 2>Kirk Cousins going to make them?

0:22:53.119 --> 0:22:54.680
<v Speaker 6>Well, you know, they don't know what they're gonna get

0:22:54.800 --> 0:22:58.080
<v Speaker 6>because and this is where the tampering that is so

0:22:58.320 --> 0:23:02.280
<v Speaker 6>rampant becomes and obvious. How in the hell did the

0:23:02.359 --> 0:23:04.639
<v Speaker 6>Falcons get to the point where they were comfortable two

0:23:04.720 --> 0:23:07.560
<v Speaker 6>and a half hours into the negotiating window with the

0:23:07.760 --> 0:23:11.159
<v Speaker 6>recovery by Kirk Cousins from his torn achilles tendon to

0:23:11.320 --> 0:23:14.080
<v Speaker 6>make a one hundred and eighty million dollar contract offer. Boy,

0:23:14.119 --> 0:23:16.160
<v Speaker 6>that's a lot of work that got done in two

0:23:16.200 --> 0:23:19.080
<v Speaker 6>and a half hours by the Atlanta Falcons. But when

0:23:19.119 --> 0:23:23.280
<v Speaker 6>you consider how lost they've been at the quarterback position

0:23:23.400 --> 0:23:25.960
<v Speaker 6>since Matt Ryan was traded to the Colts a couple

0:23:26.000 --> 0:23:29.399
<v Speaker 6>of years ago, this is to them a no brainer.

0:23:29.600 --> 0:23:32.480
<v Speaker 6>Let's spend the money, Let's make the team better. Let's

0:23:32.480 --> 0:23:35.159
<v Speaker 6>see what we can do by way of upgrading the

0:23:35.240 --> 0:23:37.600
<v Speaker 6>quarterback position and getting the most out of our weapons

0:23:37.680 --> 0:23:41.560
<v Speaker 6>in Kyle Pitts and Drake London and Bijon Robinson.

0:23:41.760 --> 0:23:45.200
<v Speaker 12>So they're going to find out, and it's a risk.

0:23:45.320 --> 0:23:49.000
<v Speaker 6>It's a calculated risk, especially once you tear that achilles

0:23:49.000 --> 0:23:51.359
<v Speaker 6>on one side. The other one can go too, and

0:23:51.480 --> 0:23:54.960
<v Speaker 6>it's an older athlete injury, and he's going to be

0:23:55.000 --> 0:23:56.760
<v Speaker 6>thirty six. As you said, it's a real risk for

0:23:56.800 --> 0:23:57.280
<v Speaker 6>the Falcons.

0:23:57.359 --> 0:24:00.520
<v Speaker 2>He's Mike Florio, Pro Football Talk Live co host contributor

0:24:00.600 --> 0:24:02.200
<v Speaker 2>to Football Night in America. I want to give you

0:24:02.320 --> 0:24:04.920
<v Speaker 2>credit because you were the first to kind of put

0:24:04.960 --> 0:24:08.720
<v Speaker 2>out the breadcrumbs that Kirk Cousins that his family. You

0:24:08.800 --> 0:24:11.840
<v Speaker 2>were hearing that they could be moving to Georgia, which

0:24:11.920 --> 0:24:15.040
<v Speaker 2>is where his wife was from is from, and then

0:24:15.280 --> 0:24:18.640
<v Speaker 2>the speculation started that is kirk Cousins going to Atlanta.

0:24:19.040 --> 0:24:21.880
<v Speaker 2>So you might have taken some bullets there from people

0:24:22.000 --> 0:24:24.960
<v Speaker 2>when you put out that initially. But you know, I'm

0:24:25.000 --> 0:24:25.520
<v Speaker 2>going to bring it.

0:24:25.560 --> 0:24:27.720
<v Speaker 6>Back well, and I appreciate it. You know, it's funny

0:24:27.720 --> 0:24:29.680
<v Speaker 6>and I appreciate you saying that. And look, what I

0:24:29.800 --> 0:24:32.399
<v Speaker 6>said last week would have been right if he'd stayed

0:24:32.400 --> 0:24:34.480
<v Speaker 6>in Minnesota. The fact that he went to Atlanta just

0:24:34.560 --> 0:24:37.159
<v Speaker 6>shines a light on the fact that, yes, they were

0:24:37.320 --> 0:24:40.040
<v Speaker 6>looking for schools and houses in Atlanta, and no, it

0:24:40.160 --> 0:24:42.560
<v Speaker 6>wasn't just a leverage play to get the Vikings to

0:24:42.640 --> 0:24:43.160
<v Speaker 6>pay more.

0:24:43.840 --> 0:24:45.879
<v Speaker 12>And you know, I don't just put out there everything

0:24:45.960 --> 0:24:46.280
<v Speaker 12>I hear.

0:24:46.320 --> 0:24:48.840
<v Speaker 6>If I hear something that I think is credible, I start,

0:24:49.000 --> 0:24:51.560
<v Speaker 6>you know, you scratch, you talk to the right people,

0:24:51.880 --> 0:24:54.119
<v Speaker 6>you confirm it, and then you talk about it.

0:24:54.240 --> 0:24:55.080
<v Speaker 12>And it was true.

0:24:55.359 --> 0:24:57.720
<v Speaker 6>They were looking at where they would live in Atlanta

0:24:57.800 --> 0:24:59.240
<v Speaker 6>and where the boys will go to school.

0:24:59.280 --> 0:25:00.600
<v Speaker 12>That's a huge for them.

0:25:00.840 --> 0:25:04.080
<v Speaker 6>When you uproot the lives of two young children, you

0:25:04.200 --> 0:25:07.160
<v Speaker 6>better be comfortable about where you are putting them once

0:25:07.240 --> 0:25:09.199
<v Speaker 6>you make that move. And yeah, but if he had

0:25:09.200 --> 0:25:12.480
<v Speaker 6>stayed in Minnesota, it was still true. But obviously I'd

0:25:12.520 --> 0:25:14.000
<v Speaker 6>be hearing something far different this week.

0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:21.239
<v Speaker 2>Justin Fields possible destinations got one no, And you know, Dan,

0:25:21.320 --> 0:25:22.200
<v Speaker 2>at some point.

0:25:22.119 --> 0:25:24.800
<v Speaker 6>What the Bears need to do is say, you know what,

0:25:25.600 --> 0:25:27.680
<v Speaker 6>we're not going to get anything close to what we

0:25:27.760 --> 0:25:29.359
<v Speaker 6>thought we were going to get for Justin Fields.

0:25:29.600 --> 0:25:30.520
<v Speaker 12>So let's see what.

0:25:30.560 --> 0:25:33.000
<v Speaker 6>Happens after round one of the draft, because maybe one

0:25:33.040 --> 0:25:34.959
<v Speaker 6>of these teams that is thinking they're going to get

0:25:34.960 --> 0:25:38.360
<v Speaker 6>their long term answer via the first round doesn't get him,

0:25:38.720 --> 0:25:41.560
<v Speaker 6>and we got a market in that eighteen hours between

0:25:42.000 --> 0:25:45.800
<v Speaker 6>round one and round two. And then if that doesn't happen,

0:25:45.920 --> 0:25:49.240
<v Speaker 6>let's say they take Caleb Williams. They have Justin Fields,

0:25:49.440 --> 0:25:51.480
<v Speaker 6>a trade market doesn't develop after round.

0:25:51.320 --> 0:25:54.119
<v Speaker 12>One, why not hold on to him. Look at what

0:25:54.240 --> 0:25:55.120
<v Speaker 12>happened last.

0:25:55.000 --> 0:25:58.199
<v Speaker 6>Year, all the quarterbacks that got injured, and the Browns

0:25:58.240 --> 0:26:00.720
<v Speaker 6>are proposing moving the trade deadline from the Tuesday after

0:26:00.800 --> 0:26:03.960
<v Speaker 6>Week eight until the Tuesday after Week ten. That's ten

0:26:04.080 --> 0:26:07.359
<v Speaker 6>weeks of opportunities for a starting quarterback to get injured

0:26:07.600 --> 0:26:10.520
<v Speaker 6>and somebody to say, we got to give up whatever

0:26:11.080 --> 0:26:13.320
<v Speaker 6>we have to give up to get justin fields. If

0:26:13.320 --> 0:26:16.880
<v Speaker 6>they can make that work, if they can keep Fields from,

0:26:17.119 --> 0:26:21.399
<v Speaker 6>you know, getting too frustrated and not being a team player,

0:26:21.920 --> 0:26:25.560
<v Speaker 6>they could maybe wait for the right opportunity and get

0:26:25.600 --> 0:26:28.119
<v Speaker 6>the value in September or October that they're not going

0:26:28.200 --> 0:26:28.640
<v Speaker 6>to get now.

0:26:28.960 --> 0:26:31.400
<v Speaker 2>Any chance the Bears don't take Caleb Williams.

0:26:32.200 --> 0:26:35.240
<v Speaker 12>I'd be stunned. If they don't. I really would be stunned.

0:26:35.280 --> 0:26:39.439
<v Speaker 6>He checks all the boxes, he gets it, mature, serious

0:26:39.480 --> 0:26:40.280
<v Speaker 6>about his craft.

0:26:40.560 --> 0:26:41.560
<v Speaker 12>I'd be stunned.

0:26:41.800 --> 0:26:45.040
<v Speaker 6>Unless the only very small and this is ridiculously small

0:26:45.080 --> 0:26:47.360
<v Speaker 6>because he didn't do the medicals at the combine when

0:26:47.400 --> 0:26:50.119
<v Speaker 6>they bring him into Chicago. If they find something that

0:26:50.240 --> 0:26:54.000
<v Speaker 6>freaks them out, then I assume they'd pivot to Jaden Daniels.

0:26:54.440 --> 0:26:58.200
<v Speaker 6>But the idea of fields being QB one all year

0:26:58.320 --> 0:27:01.200
<v Speaker 6>long without another guy being added, I think that ship

0:27:01.320 --> 0:27:04.120
<v Speaker 6>sailed for the Bears, and if they can't trade fields,

0:27:04.400 --> 0:27:06.600
<v Speaker 6>they're not going to go back on their plan. I

0:27:06.760 --> 0:27:09.320
<v Speaker 6>believe to take a quarterback with the first overall pick.

0:27:09.720 --> 0:27:12.240
<v Speaker 2>Jerry Jones says the Cowboys are all in this season.

0:27:12.840 --> 0:27:16.280
<v Speaker 2>What does that mean, Well, this is what's great about

0:27:16.320 --> 0:27:18.880
<v Speaker 2>Jerry Jones. It means whatever he wants it to mean.

0:27:19.400 --> 0:27:23.560
<v Speaker 12>It means whatever he can conjure when he's pressed. What

0:27:23.680 --> 0:27:25.520
<v Speaker 12>does all end mean? Oh it means this. Oh it

0:27:25.640 --> 0:27:27.879
<v Speaker 12>means that. Oh it means this. What it meant yesterday

0:27:27.960 --> 0:27:29.680
<v Speaker 12>is they were all out because they didn't do anything.

0:27:29.760 --> 0:27:31.680
<v Speaker 12>The only team that didn't make a move on the

0:27:31.760 --> 0:27:35.520
<v Speaker 12>first day of the legal tampering period of free agency.

0:27:35.560 --> 0:27:37.000
<v Speaker 6>And one of the reasons they can't make a move

0:27:37.119 --> 0:27:40.720
<v Speaker 6>is they got this Dak Prescott cap number fifty nine

0:27:40.760 --> 0:27:43.680
<v Speaker 6>point four million for twenty twenty four. They got to

0:27:43.720 --> 0:27:46.119
<v Speaker 6>do something about that before they know where they're going

0:27:46.160 --> 0:27:48.640
<v Speaker 6>to have room to maneuver. They got Michael Parsons eligible

0:27:48.680 --> 0:27:51.359
<v Speaker 6>for a new deal. He got cde Lamb, who's ready

0:27:51.880 --> 0:27:53.560
<v Speaker 6>for his second contract.

0:27:53.880 --> 0:27:56.879
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, all in is just and dan. The more I

0:27:56.960 --> 0:27:58.399
<v Speaker 12>hear from Jerry Jones, the more I.

0:27:58.560 --> 0:28:01.800
<v Speaker 6>Think that this that's nonsense about I want to win

0:28:01.880 --> 0:28:03.680
<v Speaker 6>the Super Bowl and you'd be stunned at the size

0:28:03.680 --> 0:28:05.080
<v Speaker 6>of the check out, right if I knew that it

0:28:05.119 --> 0:28:07.840
<v Speaker 6>would deliver a Super Bowl. I think that that's just

0:28:07.960 --> 0:28:10.560
<v Speaker 6>a lot of boloney, and he's just trying to keep

0:28:10.640 --> 0:28:13.320
<v Speaker 6>the Cowboys as the most talked about team.

0:28:13.520 --> 0:28:15.200
<v Speaker 12>America's team. I mean, think about it.

0:28:16.200 --> 0:28:18.360
<v Speaker 6>The fact that the Cowboys are still the best draw

0:28:18.400 --> 0:28:20.720
<v Speaker 6>in the NFL after not going to an NFC championship

0:28:20.760 --> 0:28:23.879
<v Speaker 6>game for thirty years. That's more impressive than winning one

0:28:23.960 --> 0:28:26.960
<v Speaker 6>Super Bowl. He's kept that team relevant and we're talking

0:28:27.000 --> 0:28:30.280
<v Speaker 6>about him now because he's always got something that stirs

0:28:30.359 --> 0:28:33.040
<v Speaker 6>it up and makes people think that they're all in,

0:28:33.840 --> 0:28:36.200
<v Speaker 6>when who the hell knows what all in is and

0:28:37.880 --> 0:28:40.000
<v Speaker 6>they're not going to be all in the NFC Championship

0:28:40.040 --> 0:28:40.800
<v Speaker 6>game again this year.

0:28:41.960 --> 0:28:46.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so you think he's satisfied with being relevant, not

0:28:46.480 --> 0:28:47.640
<v Speaker 2>necessarily being elite.

0:28:48.400 --> 0:28:51.000
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, all these teams say we want to win the

0:28:51.040 --> 0:28:52.560
<v Speaker 12>Super Bowl every year. We want to win the Super

0:28:52.560 --> 0:28:53.200
<v Speaker 12>Bowl every year.

0:28:53.440 --> 0:28:56.080
<v Speaker 6>Well, if that's truly the way you measure success, you're

0:28:56.160 --> 0:28:58.920
<v Speaker 6>pissed off a lot for Jerry Jones, You're pissed off

0:28:59.000 --> 0:29:02.360
<v Speaker 6>for three full decade. Meanwhile, he's got a giant yacht,

0:29:02.800 --> 0:29:05.719
<v Speaker 6>he's worth billions, and the Cowboys and the most valuable

0:29:05.760 --> 0:29:08.200
<v Speaker 6>property in the entire NFL, even though they haven't played

0:29:08.520 --> 0:29:10.760
<v Speaker 6>for the right to go to the Super Bowl since.

0:29:10.680 --> 0:29:11.680
<v Speaker 12>Nineteen ninety five.

0:29:12.400 --> 0:29:18.200
<v Speaker 6>He I think secretly values what the Cowboys are more

0:29:18.320 --> 0:29:22.360
<v Speaker 6>than this and you look, your competitive nature takes over

0:29:22.400 --> 0:29:24.440
<v Speaker 6>at some point. Yeah, you'd like to win a super Bowl,

0:29:24.520 --> 0:29:27.840
<v Speaker 6>but he's winning a much bigger game and he's got

0:29:28.200 --> 0:29:30.520
<v Speaker 6>the biggest and best team in the NFL despite the

0:29:30.640 --> 0:29:32.880
<v Speaker 6>lack of accomplishments for thirty years.

0:29:33.720 --> 0:29:36.200
<v Speaker 2>What should we look out for the rest of this week?

0:29:36.880 --> 0:29:40.000
<v Speaker 6>Well, look, Derek Henry's still out there, daneil Hunter's still

0:29:40.040 --> 0:29:43.120
<v Speaker 6>out there. The big names that don't do a deal

0:29:43.280 --> 0:29:47.080
<v Speaker 6>right away, that means that maybe they expected more than

0:29:47.160 --> 0:29:49.360
<v Speaker 6>what's out there. And what you're going to see is

0:29:49.680 --> 0:29:52.080
<v Speaker 6>the one year deals. The guys who didn't get what

0:29:52.200 --> 0:29:54.680
<v Speaker 6>they want, they do the one year deal and they

0:29:54.800 --> 0:29:57.200
<v Speaker 6>kick it to next year and they try it again,

0:29:57.280 --> 0:29:59.280
<v Speaker 6>and sometimes it works. Look what it did for Baker

0:29:59.360 --> 0:30:02.000
<v Speaker 6>Mayfield the one year deal last year. Now he's got

0:30:02.120 --> 0:30:05.280
<v Speaker 6>one hundred million dollar contract sort of with the Buccaneers.

0:30:05.320 --> 0:30:07.040
<v Speaker 12>So the one year deals are going to start happen

0:30:07.080 --> 0:30:08.040
<v Speaker 12>in the next couple of days.

0:30:08.320 --> 0:30:11.280
<v Speaker 2>And Russell Wilson has a one year deal in Pittsburgh.

0:30:11.840 --> 0:30:13.320
<v Speaker 2>What do you what do you think of this move?

0:30:13.880 --> 0:30:14.320
<v Speaker 2>I love it?

0:30:14.480 --> 0:30:18.120
<v Speaker 6>And the Steelers had some sort of a change of

0:30:18.240 --> 0:30:21.880
<v Speaker 6>approach here because they had leaked to Jerry Doulak of

0:30:21.920 --> 0:30:24.920
<v Speaker 6>The Post Cazette last month. They're not interested in a

0:30:24.960 --> 0:30:29.480
<v Speaker 6>veteran quarterback who has aspirations to start at the scouting combine.

0:30:29.560 --> 0:30:32.400
<v Speaker 6>That was the vibe, Kenny Pickett, Mason Rudolph, that's what

0:30:32.440 --> 0:30:35.520
<v Speaker 6>they're doing. That was the clear understanding I got when

0:30:35.560 --> 0:30:38.520
<v Speaker 6>you're kind of immersed in everything NFL related and then

0:30:38.560 --> 0:30:40.880
<v Speaker 6>out of the blue, here comes Russell Wilson and they

0:30:40.960 --> 0:30:42.640
<v Speaker 6>handed it to do Lac. I don't want to go

0:30:42.680 --> 0:30:45.400
<v Speaker 6>too far inside baseball here, but I don't think it's

0:30:45.400 --> 0:30:47.920
<v Speaker 6>a coincidence that they handed that news to do Lac

0:30:48.000 --> 0:30:49.640
<v Speaker 6>to make up for the fact that they burned him

0:30:49.640 --> 0:30:51.760
<v Speaker 6>with the last one on We're not interested in the

0:30:51.800 --> 0:30:53.120
<v Speaker 6>quarterback who wants to start.

0:30:53.440 --> 0:30:54.920
<v Speaker 12>They got interested in Russell Wilson.

0:30:55.000 --> 0:30:57.560
<v Speaker 6>And it's as simple as dan if he's going to

0:30:57.560 --> 0:31:00.640
<v Speaker 6>play for one point two to one million, It's Truebisky

0:31:00.760 --> 0:31:03.680
<v Speaker 6>just signed for a two point seventy five million base

0:31:03.760 --> 0:31:06.280
<v Speaker 6>in Buffalo to clearly beat the backup to Josh Allen.

0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:08.920
<v Speaker 6>One point two to one million dollar for dollar, that

0:31:09.200 --> 0:31:11.560
<v Speaker 6>is the best bargain you're gonna get. The Steelers have

0:31:11.760 --> 0:31:14.440
<v Speaker 6>five million in caps base tied up now. In their

0:31:14.480 --> 0:31:17.560
<v Speaker 6>top two quarterbacks. That leavest two hundred and fifty million

0:31:17.680 --> 0:31:20.280
<v Speaker 6>for the rest of the team. And if Russ plays

0:31:20.360 --> 0:31:22.040
<v Speaker 6>like he did in Seattle, if he doesn't try to

0:31:22.080 --> 0:31:25.080
<v Speaker 6>do too much, run the offense, roll out once in

0:31:25.120 --> 0:31:27.200
<v Speaker 6>a while, and fire a deep ball to Deontay Johnson

0:31:27.320 --> 0:31:28.080
<v Speaker 6>or George Pickens.

0:31:28.440 --> 0:31:30.800
<v Speaker 12>You couple that with that defense. This is a way

0:31:30.800 --> 0:31:32.840
<v Speaker 12>for Russell Wilson to turn his career around. I love

0:31:32.920 --> 0:31:33.360
<v Speaker 12>this move.

0:31:34.080 --> 0:31:36.520
<v Speaker 2>I think Pittsburgh would take what Russ did last year

0:31:36.560 --> 0:31:39.800
<v Speaker 2>in Denver. I think not a bad point.

0:31:39.920 --> 0:31:40.600
<v Speaker 12>Not a bad point.

0:31:40.920 --> 0:31:43.280
<v Speaker 6>And that's the thing, even though it drove Sean Payton

0:31:43.360 --> 0:31:46.080
<v Speaker 6>crazy to pre snap stuff, not getting the play in

0:31:46.200 --> 0:31:48.280
<v Speaker 6>fast enough, not making the adjustments ahead of time for

0:31:48.320 --> 0:31:52.160
<v Speaker 6>that very specific and detailed offense, what let Russ cook

0:31:52.320 --> 0:31:55.160
<v Speaker 6>means is let him get the ball in his hands.

0:31:55.560 --> 0:31:57.760
<v Speaker 6>When he gets the ball in his hands and things

0:31:57.840 --> 0:32:01.600
<v Speaker 6>go sideways, he'll spin. He'll again, He'll find Courtland Sutton.

0:32:01.640 --> 0:32:03.760
<v Speaker 6>This time it's going to be George Pickers and Deontae Johnson.

0:32:04.040 --> 0:32:06.720
<v Speaker 6>He's got a knack from making magic when the play

0:32:06.840 --> 0:32:09.480
<v Speaker 6>that was called doesn't work the way it was intended.

0:32:09.720 --> 0:32:11.680
<v Speaker 6>That's what he can still do, and that's what the

0:32:11.720 --> 0:32:14.520
<v Speaker 6>Steelers haven't had since Roethlisberger was in his prime.

0:32:15.200 --> 0:32:19.120
<v Speaker 2>The NFL sets up its offseason calendar unbelievably. I mean,

0:32:19.160 --> 0:32:22.400
<v Speaker 2>they know what they're doing. So you got this month.

0:32:22.520 --> 0:32:25.200
<v Speaker 2>Then you're gonna have the draft, and then Paul out

0:32:25.280 --> 0:32:27.680
<v Speaker 2>from the draft, and then they give all the other

0:32:27.800 --> 0:32:30.880
<v Speaker 2>sports a chance to make some headlines, and then they're

0:32:30.920 --> 0:32:33.080
<v Speaker 2>gonna come back in July and August and then they're

0:32:33.120 --> 0:32:34.080
<v Speaker 2>gonna dominate again.

0:32:34.760 --> 0:32:38.200
<v Speaker 6>The fact that we know what the regular season games

0:32:38.280 --> 0:32:41.760
<v Speaker 6>will be next year, we know all of the opponents

0:32:41.960 --> 0:32:45.200
<v Speaker 6>when where they'll play their games, We just don't know when.

0:32:45.720 --> 0:32:48.200
<v Speaker 12>And the mirror act at some point.

0:32:48.080 --> 0:32:51.520
<v Speaker 6>In May of announcing the when is bigger than anything

0:32:51.560 --> 0:32:54.640
<v Speaker 6>else that happens in sports. They've got it figured out,

0:32:54.680 --> 0:32:56.080
<v Speaker 6>and I don't know how much of it was deliberate

0:32:56.080 --> 0:32:57.600
<v Speaker 6>and accidental, but they've got it figured out.

0:32:57.720 --> 0:32:59.640
<v Speaker 2>Good to talk to you is always Mike. Thanks again,

0:32:59.680 --> 0:33:02.440
<v Speaker 2>all right, but it's Mike Florio Pro Football Talk Live

0:33:02.520 --> 0:33:05.040
<v Speaker 2>co host and you can see him and Chris Simms

0:33:05.440 --> 0:33:08.920
<v Speaker 2>their show pre seeds hours on Peacon. Yeah, you have

0:33:09.040 --> 0:33:13.479
<v Speaker 2>this schedule release party. We know what the matchups are.

0:33:13.600 --> 0:33:16.520
<v Speaker 2>We just don't know when we get to see those matchups, like,

0:33:16.920 --> 0:33:19.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, sequentially, you know, when do you play? Do

0:33:19.640 --> 0:33:22.200
<v Speaker 2>you have back to back? Do you have road games?

0:33:22.360 --> 0:33:25.960
<v Speaker 2>Three road games? Are you playing overseas? Like all of

0:33:26.040 --> 0:33:28.920
<v Speaker 2>those things. But we get so excited about it, even

0:33:29.000 --> 0:33:34.520
<v Speaker 2>the Combine. I don't watch the Combine. I used to,

0:33:34.880 --> 0:33:38.080
<v Speaker 2>Now I don't know. It just feels weird watching the Combine.

0:33:38.920 --> 0:33:42.840
<v Speaker 2>But people love to watch it. Networks are covering, breaking

0:33:42.920 --> 0:33:45.040
<v Speaker 2>into coverage, yes, Mark.

0:33:45.320 --> 0:33:47.680
<v Speaker 10>And when the schedule is released, you can already see

0:33:47.720 --> 0:33:50.840
<v Speaker 10>people like, all right, if I'm a Giants fan, I'm

0:33:50.840 --> 0:33:53.600
<v Speaker 10>playing the Raiders, all right, a road trip the Vegas

0:33:54.000 --> 0:33:55.520
<v Speaker 10>or I got a bunch of friends that are forty

0:33:55.600 --> 0:33:57.880
<v Speaker 10>nine ers fans. Hey, how close are they playing DC?

0:33:58.200 --> 0:34:01.040
<v Speaker 10>Al roachrip the DC? They already got, They've already told

0:34:01.040 --> 0:34:03.960
<v Speaker 10>their wives, Ay, Friday will be gone in DC, and

0:34:04.040 --> 0:34:06.920
<v Speaker 10>this all way, So it's a big thing, yeah.

0:34:07.000 --> 0:34:07.200
<v Speaker 2>Poll.

0:34:07.480 --> 0:34:10.280
<v Speaker 7>Some fan bases have the opposite reaction when the schedules released.

0:34:10.280 --> 0:34:11.960
<v Speaker 7>As a Bear fan, I'm like, oh, we got the

0:34:12.040 --> 0:34:12.799
<v Speaker 7>Chiefs in week two?

0:34:13.760 --> 0:34:15.760
<v Speaker 8>Oh oh man, And you start like looking at losses.

0:34:15.800 --> 0:34:18.040
<v Speaker 8>I'm not kidding you. You start going, oh, they waited

0:34:18.120 --> 0:34:18.479
<v Speaker 8>us early.

0:34:19.400 --> 0:34:21.160
<v Speaker 2>I like to look at the first week. I like

0:34:21.239 --> 0:34:23.640
<v Speaker 2>to you know, like there'll be a Thursday game, there

0:34:23.719 --> 0:34:25.839
<v Speaker 2>might be a Friday game, and then a Sunday game

0:34:25.920 --> 0:34:28.719
<v Speaker 2>the first week. At least that's what I'm told. And

0:34:28.840 --> 0:34:31.600
<v Speaker 2>I think that'll be interesting going to be playing in

0:34:31.680 --> 0:34:35.560
<v Speaker 2>different countries and seeing some of these teams that are

0:34:35.640 --> 0:34:39.440
<v Speaker 2>volunteering to be, you know, the host in some of

0:34:39.480 --> 0:34:42.560
<v Speaker 2>these cities. They want to set up their own Kansas

0:34:42.600 --> 0:34:46.520
<v Speaker 2>City Chiefs in Germany or the Patriots are going to

0:34:46.600 --> 0:34:50.240
<v Speaker 2>be there setting up these fan bases like that's our country,

0:34:50.520 --> 0:34:53.600
<v Speaker 2>that's our city. And you're seeing these teams that are

0:34:53.640 --> 0:34:56.400
<v Speaker 2>willing to give up that home game so they can

0:34:56.440 --> 0:34:58.439
<v Speaker 2>go on the road and claim that's their home away

0:34:58.480 --> 0:35:00.160
<v Speaker 2>from home. Yes, John, and the juicy.

0:35:00.080 --> 0:35:03.000
<v Speaker 11>Storylines when the Eagles play at the Giants and the Steelers'

0:35:03.000 --> 0:35:04.879
<v Speaker 11>Broncos and you look at all the trades and free

0:35:04.920 --> 0:35:07.920
<v Speaker 11>agent pickups and who's going against their former coaches and teammates.

0:35:08.200 --> 0:35:10.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and then you're gonna have Caleb Williams and his

0:35:10.200 --> 0:35:13.360
<v Speaker 2>first game is gonna be against who or Jayden Daniels.

<v Speaker 2>I'm not gonna lie.

0:36:25.880 --> 0:36:28.200
<v Speaker 9>All right, couple really quick because I know you against it,

0:36:28.760 --> 0:36:30.600
<v Speaker 9>but I need you to put your helmet on the bucket.

0:36:30.680 --> 0:36:32.600
<v Speaker 9>Tris stops meaning I need you to take this very

0:36:32.640 --> 0:36:36.600
<v Speaker 9>serious because there's actually two dimes on this. Out of

0:36:36.680 --> 0:36:38.759
<v Speaker 9>the three, out of the four fellas you have in there,

0:36:38.880 --> 0:36:43.239
<v Speaker 9>King Marvin and the goodfellas, who would last longer in

0:36:43.360 --> 0:36:44.880
<v Speaker 9>the round with Mike Tyson.

0:36:47.040 --> 0:36:48.719
<v Speaker 2>Wait, you guys are betting money on this.

0:36:49.840 --> 0:36:51.799
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, you have to bet money. Who's going to last longer?

0:36:51.840 --> 0:36:53.799
<v Speaker 9>It's two thousand dollars in the barbershop right now. I'm

0:36:53.800 --> 0:36:55.719
<v Speaker 9>looking at If you want me to live, shoot it

0:36:55.760 --> 0:36:57.160
<v Speaker 9>to you. It's on the floor right now.

0:37:01.560 --> 0:37:07.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Paul would be extremely competitive, but that doesn't mean

0:37:07.960 --> 0:37:11.600
<v Speaker 2>that he would last. That might hurt him. Todd would

0:37:11.760 --> 0:37:14.600
<v Speaker 2>look like he could do some damage to my type.

0:37:14.680 --> 0:37:19.040
<v Speaker 2>Like said, that's about the extent. Yeah, Seatan would be

0:37:19.560 --> 0:37:23.440
<v Speaker 2>a pest. He would be. He would be, you know,

0:37:23.640 --> 0:37:27.480
<v Speaker 2>doing his best. I would say, Marvin. I'm gonna say

0:37:27.560 --> 0:37:29.959
<v Speaker 2>Marvin would be able to hang in there a little

0:37:29.960 --> 0:37:31.120
<v Speaker 2>bit longer, yes, Mark.

0:37:31.000 --> 0:37:32.479
<v Speaker 10>No, no, no, no, I'm gonna go with Seat because

0:37:32.640 --> 0:37:35.400
<v Speaker 10>young Seat looks like somebody you hit him once. Come on,

0:37:35.560 --> 0:37:38.239
<v Speaker 10>that's just how I like it. And he wouldn't stop. Yeah,

0:37:38.280 --> 0:37:41.879
<v Speaker 10>but he's older now, but maybe maybe young Seaton comes

0:37:41.920 --> 0:37:42.840
<v Speaker 10>back because I'm.

0:37:42.680 --> 0:37:45.719
<v Speaker 2>A young Seatan. No, there's no young ser Yeah, thirty

0:37:45.800 --> 0:37:48.239
<v Speaker 2>nine year old Marvin's out. Yeah Seaton. Young Seaton is

0:37:48.239 --> 0:37:50.239
<v Speaker 2>a completely different person than the guy sitting right here

0:37:50.280 --> 0:37:50.719
<v Speaker 2>in front of you.

0:37:50.880 --> 0:37:53.279
<v Speaker 14>I'm immediately going down. I don't even I'm not even

0:37:53.320 --> 0:37:57.080
<v Speaker 14>remotely interested. My money's on paul because he's definitely competitive, and.

0:37:57.120 --> 0:37:58.520
<v Speaker 2>Like, let me see how I could do with this.

0:37:58.680 --> 0:37:58.880
<v Speaker 6>Let me.

0:38:01.239 --> 0:38:01.640
<v Speaker 9>I'll know.

0:38:01.880 --> 0:38:05.080
<v Speaker 2>I'll know, Marvin. I would say you, I would say you.

0:38:06.160 --> 0:38:08.239
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's not a ringing endorsement, but I would

0:38:08.239 --> 0:38:11.799
<v Speaker 2>say you. It's like process of elimination you. Yes, well,

0:38:11.960 --> 0:38:15.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean Paulie would. If Paulie could wrestle Mike Tyson,

0:38:16.320 --> 0:38:19.320
<v Speaker 2>I don't think Paulie could uh could box with you know,

0:38:19.440 --> 0:38:22.640
<v Speaker 2>even stay in there for how long do you think

0:38:22.680 --> 0:38:23.440
<v Speaker 2>you could stay.

0:38:23.320 --> 0:38:27.080
<v Speaker 7>Up as long as Mike chose? Yeah, it's really Mike's

0:38:27.160 --> 0:38:29.040
<v Speaker 7>choice of what he would want to do. In all seriousness,

0:38:29.080 --> 0:38:30.920
<v Speaker 7>if you if we went in, I know what I

0:38:30.960 --> 0:38:32.960
<v Speaker 7>would do. I would probably try to think I could

0:38:33.040 --> 0:38:36.360
<v Speaker 7>do something to stay in longer. I would get knocked

0:38:36.480 --> 0:38:38.920
<v Speaker 7>the you know what out because I would be standing

0:38:38.960 --> 0:38:41.640
<v Speaker 7>in front. I would not take a dive, which would

0:38:41.680 --> 0:38:42.240
<v Speaker 7>be a mistake.

0:38:43.120 --> 0:38:44.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, marvh ah.

0:38:44.800 --> 0:38:47.160
<v Speaker 10>Paulie's blind in one eye though, which.

0:38:47.400 --> 0:38:49.319
<v Speaker 2>He's going to be blind in the other one too.

0:38:49.840 --> 0:38:52.239
<v Speaker 2>That is a problem. Yeah, you're not going to even

0:38:52.280 --> 0:38:54.840
<v Speaker 2>see You're not going to see that. That's a blessing though, No,

0:38:56.080 --> 0:38:58.000
<v Speaker 2>nine night, nine night.

0:38:58.200 --> 0:38:58.399
<v Speaker 4>Yes.

0:38:58.719 --> 0:39:00.399
<v Speaker 8>I know it's not boxing, but paul is the history.

0:39:00.440 --> 0:39:01.800
<v Speaker 10>When we go to the super Bowl and everywhere he

0:39:01.880 --> 0:39:03.360
<v Speaker 10>takes on all these different.

0:39:03.120 --> 0:39:06.279
<v Speaker 2>Athletes, doesn't he doesn't do well. I mean, he could

0:39:06.320 --> 0:39:09.399
<v Speaker 2>stay in there for a little while. I know you don't.

0:39:09.680 --> 0:39:11.120
<v Speaker 2>You can go in the ring and say, well, I'm

0:39:11.160 --> 0:39:12.919
<v Speaker 2>not afraid. That doesn't mean you're gonna last.

0:39:12.960 --> 0:39:13.120
<v Speaker 9>Yeh.

0:39:13.120 --> 0:39:14.880
<v Speaker 8>A nail getting hit by a hammer is not the

0:39:14.960 --> 0:39:15.840
<v Speaker 8>nails not impressive.

0:39:17.880 --> 0:39:21.239
<v Speaker 2>You don't say, man, that nail. He took everything that

0:39:21.360 --> 0:39:22.279
<v Speaker 2>hammer had to give him.

0:39:22.520 --> 0:39:22.759
<v Speaker 8>Nail.

0:39:22.920 --> 0:39:27.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Tyson would hit you in the body, and you

0:39:27.239 --> 0:39:28.680
<v Speaker 2>would and you would cry.

0:39:28.800 --> 0:39:30.399
<v Speaker 7>I think I'd much rather get hit in the face

0:39:30.400 --> 0:39:33.080
<v Speaker 7>because then it's over in the body. You just sit

0:39:33.120 --> 0:39:34.239
<v Speaker 7>there and soak it in.

0:39:34.560 --> 0:39:39.520
<v Speaker 10>Oh yeah, that's a lot of that's that's all that

0:39:39.560 --> 0:39:41.719
<v Speaker 10>sounds you're gonna make it. You want a broken jaw,

0:39:41.800 --> 0:39:43.440
<v Speaker 10>broken ribs. I guess I have to kind of decide

0:39:43.440 --> 0:39:44.880
<v Speaker 10>which one heals fast, which one can.

0:39:44.960 --> 0:39:45.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:39:45.280 --> 0:39:48.239
<v Speaker 14>See, I would much rather have even if it could

0:39:48.480 --> 0:39:51.279
<v Speaker 14>theoretically be more dangerous. I would take a shot to

0:39:51.360 --> 0:39:54.440
<v Speaker 14>the ribs more than have him my face completely busted

0:39:54.520 --> 0:39:56.600
<v Speaker 14>open and have him be like, you know, you're looking

0:39:56.760 --> 0:40:00.399
<v Speaker 14>like all swollen out to here and it's like, that's

0:40:00.480 --> 0:40:01.239
<v Speaker 14>what Tyson did you?

0:40:02.080 --> 0:40:02.480
<v Speaker 9>I'm not that.

0:40:02.719 --> 0:40:04.399
<v Speaker 2>I think if I was going to go down, i'd

0:40:04.440 --> 0:40:06.120
<v Speaker 2>want to go down with the punch to the face,

0:40:06.719 --> 0:40:10.080
<v Speaker 2>you know, not in the ribs, because then you'll be

0:40:10.160 --> 0:40:14.200
<v Speaker 2>like the punch of the face. Then it's that's it.

0:40:14.320 --> 0:40:16.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm down, as long as I don't see your cheek

0:40:16.600 --> 0:40:20.560
<v Speaker 2>and your orbital bone have different matters. Yeah, but several

0:40:20.600 --> 0:40:23.879
<v Speaker 2>events that's okay, look like Martin Short and pure luck.

0:40:25.480 --> 0:40:28.360
<v Speaker 2>It's a random reference. Yeah it is Rando. What do

0:40:28.440 --> 0:40:30.960
<v Speaker 2>you have there, Paul? This day in sports history.

0:40:31.000 --> 0:40:33.359
<v Speaker 7>In nineteen thirteen, the American League approved the name change

0:40:33.400 --> 0:40:35.360
<v Speaker 7>of the New York Ishlanders to the New York Yankees.

0:40:35.400 --> 0:40:37.319
<v Speaker 7>Never knew that before, And this is one of our

0:40:37.360 --> 0:40:40.240
<v Speaker 7>favorites nineteen eighty five, Larry Bird of the Celtics scored

0:40:40.320 --> 0:40:42.560
<v Speaker 7>sixty points in the game, the club record. The game

0:40:42.640 --> 0:40:44.440
<v Speaker 7>was against the Atlanta Hawks in New Orleans.

0:40:44.600 --> 0:40:47.520
<v Speaker 8>I know, very weird. It's the best YouTube video of

0:40:47.560 --> 0:40:47.879
<v Speaker 8>all time.

0:40:49.120 --> 0:40:52.320
<v Speaker 2>On this date, nineteen ninety six, Mack Mood abdul Rauf

0:40:52.920 --> 0:40:56.880
<v Speaker 2>indefinitely suspended for refusing to stand and line up in

0:40:57.000 --> 0:41:02.040
<v Speaker 2>a dignified posture during the national anthem. The suspension lasted

0:41:02.120 --> 0:41:05.920
<v Speaker 2>one game. He agreed to stand during the anthem as

0:41:06.000 --> 0:41:09.839
<v Speaker 2>long as he could look down at his hands and pray. Todd,

0:41:09.880 --> 0:41:11.400
