But but your sport is 83 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 2: the one where I wanted to start and the reason 84 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 2: I asked like a quick story. This is a true 85 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 2: story from about four or five years ago in my 86 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 2: life when I I had moved from southern California to 87 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:08,160 Speaker 2: northern California for a career move and for a few 88 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 2: months the kids were still finishing up school, so they 89 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: hadn't come up yet, and I would go back down 90 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 2: every single weekend and make sure I visited and was 91 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,679 Speaker 2: with them every single step that I could until until 92 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 2: they moved on up. 93 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: So one night I was covering a. 94 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 2: Giants game and it ended up going eighteen innings, and 95 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 2: by the time I was done with my postgame duties, 96 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,359 Speaker 2: it was close to three in the morning, and I 97 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 2: had promised my daughter that I was gonna be at 98 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 2: her soccer game, which I think started at like eleven 99 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 2: am the next morning, and so it was an obvious 100 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 2: decision to make in that moment. It was, well, I'm 101 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 2: just gonna I'm gonna run home and grab a bag 102 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 2: and just let's keep on trucking. We don't need to 103 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 2: go to sleep because I got to get to the 104 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 2: soccer game. So I'm gonna get in the car and 105 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 2: I'm just gonna go. And yes, I'm gonna pull an 106 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 2: all nighter, and this is gonna be difficult, but we'll 107 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 2: get some coffee and we're gonna rock this joint. 108 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: Let's do it, okay, and forever I. 109 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 2: Will remember, I guess maybe not that there was a 110 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 2: stretch of Eye five the highway out here in California 111 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 2: that stretches the entire state, and there was a stretch 112 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 2: of I five that when I arrived at my daughter's 113 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 2: soccer game, I'd go, I don't remember that portion of 114 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 2: the freeway. I don't remember that. I do not remember 115 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 2: that portion of the drive, like I don't. Obviously I 116 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 2: did it because I'm here. I started there and now 117 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 2: I'm here, but I don't remember of the drive. I 118 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: know it was before that, but I just like, you know, 119 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 2: Kettleman City, something out there where. I'm just like, I 120 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 2: don't remember passing that. 121 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 1: Now. Did I just zone out? Was I really into 122 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 1: the music? 123 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 2: I was hoping that. I wasn't asleep for six minutes, 124 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 2: you know what I mean? But I arrived. Everybody's safe, 125 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 2: It's all good. And I use that now to look 126 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 2: at the forty nine er quarterback situation, because what I 127 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 2: would refer to that drive was a very bad decision. 128 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 2: But I didn't pay for it. Nothing bad happened, Everything 129 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 2: was okay. Can we now take that to the forty 130 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 2: nine er quarterback situation and help me help us here 131 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 2: who follow the forty nine ers, tell me if there 132 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 2: is a price to pay if you made a big mistake, 133 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 2: but you didn't have to pay for it. Trey Lance 134 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,559 Speaker 2: started today against the Raiders. You'll look at the box 135 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 2: score and see that he was ten to fifteen for 136 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 2: one hundred and twelve yards and a touchdown with a 137 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 2: quarterback rating of one hundred and eleven. Problem is is 138 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 2: the touchdown pass was thrown right to a Raider player, 139 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 2: bounced off of his hands, flew across the end zone, 140 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 2: and ended up in his tight end's hands, and that 141 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 2: changed his quarterback rating from thirty two to one eleven. 142 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 2: That luckys by and large Tray looked like a deer 143 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 2: in headlights. 144 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: It's year three. The forty nine ers. 145 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 2: Moved heaven and earth to get them, and they're not 146 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 2: even planning to play him this year unless Brock Purdy 147 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 2: gets hurt. It appears to be a massive mistake for 148 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 2: which they may not pay. So is it all good 149 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 2: or does someone need to pay for the decision? 150 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: I believe. 151 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 3: What's Have the forty nine ers been successful since they 152 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 3: made that trade? 153 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 2: Yes, they've been to back to back NFC title games. 154 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 2: So unless you measure success as Super Bowl or bust, No. 155 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, you can't, you know, because that's 156 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 3: not fair to any one team because only one team 157 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 3: can win the Super Bowl, but not only one team 158 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 3: is successful, you know. 159 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: Each year. 160 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 3: So they moved having and earth to get this young 161 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 3: man they thought was going to be the next guy. 162 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 3: For twelve years plus, it didn't work out that way, 163 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 3: didn't play a lot of football, really rough around the 164 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 3: edges when he got his opportunity, didn't dazzle us, and 165 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 3: then he got hurt, couldn't stay healthy. So within that 166 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 3: time they found a diamond in the rough and Brock party. 167 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 3: They've addressed a backup quarterback situation with Sam Donald, and 168 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 3: they're consistently being poised and positioned to be one of 169 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 3: the top two teams in the NFC every year, regardless 170 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 3: of the quarterback position, which in itself says something. So 171 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,559 Speaker 3: there is no price to pay for the forty nine 172 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 3: ers and what they gave up for Trey Lance, even 173 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 3: though he's not productive, it hasn't put them in a 174 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 3: hole like it has with so many other teams that 175 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 3: go all in on young quarterbacks and it doesn't pan 176 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 3: out acts the Jets right. Ask the Browns, ask a 177 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 3: myriad of the Commanders, Ask the myriad of team a 178 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 3: myriad of teams that have done this very same thing 179 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 3: and have not made the playoffs, not won a playoff game, 180 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 3: not been in an NFC championship or an AFC Championship game. 181 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 3: So when you look at the grand scheme of thing, 182 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 3: to answer your question, no, they don't. They don't have 183 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:50,839 Speaker 3: to pay for it. 184 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, which is. 185 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 3: Crazy to say it is and it's almost impossible. That 186 00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 3: can't be the formula for any other team. 187 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 2: No, oh no, And by the way, a couple of 188 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:09,199 Speaker 2: qualifiers here. Whatever happened on that field today in Las Vegas, 189 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 2: to me, I'm not writing off Trey Lance. The offensive 190 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 2: line in front of him was terrible. The forty nine 191 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 2: Ers played almost no starters, like almost none, possibly none. 192 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,959 Speaker 1: Actually, like they really did, and the. 193 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 2: Raiders played so second string versus second string. Like I 194 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:33,119 Speaker 2: take all of this with a grain of salt. However, 195 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 2: Trey Lance in year three, now healthy, given a chance 196 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 2: to play the entire first half, yeah, absolutely, if you're 197 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 2: the forty nine Ers wanted him to look different than that, 198 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 2: there's no question. 199 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 3: Well yeah, I mean the only thing he's doing now 200 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 3: is diminishing his trade value. 201 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: That's it. 202 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 3: So yep, you don't have to move heaven and Earth. 203 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 3: You just have to stay the course. They made a mistake. 204 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,439 Speaker 3: It's been three year with three, it's the third going 205 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 3: in the third year, three year three, the mistake has 206 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 3: not come back and bit you in the butt. 207 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: Rock Party. 208 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 3: If he's healthy and continues on the trajectory that he's 209 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 3: been on, you won. You won because just just do 210 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 3: it like this. And I know it doesn't really work 211 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 3: like this in the real world, but in reality, if 212 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 3: you can say, we went all in on Trey Lance 213 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 3: and barely went in on Brock Party, so we'll call 214 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 3: it a wash. We found our quarterback for the next 215 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 3: ten years if it pans out, and we don't have 216 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 3: to pay him anything, so you call it a wash. 217 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 3: Their team is already stacked. They gave up draft capital 218 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 3: and all of that, but they got a stacked young 219 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:55,199 Speaker 3: team already. 220 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 2: Right, And yeah, Rock Party's making about eight hundred and 221 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 2: seventy thousand dollars. 222 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,599 Speaker 1: Will make that continuously for the next two years for 223 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: the couple. Yep, so exactly right, no big pay bumps. 224 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 3: If they were like, hey, we want to, you know, 225 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,959 Speaker 3: give you a new contract and and and put a 226 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 3: little something on it, they still don't have to get 227 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 3: to that market of quarterbacks right now. But I will 228 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 3: tell you this, if this young man comes out and 229 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 3: continues on the path that he was on the last 230 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 3: six games of the season last year, oh boy, oh boy. 231 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,559 Speaker 3: Because he's a seventh round draft pick, the last pick 232 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 3: in the draft, they'll never feel like they have to 233 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 3: pay him like you know, Mahomes until he does something 234 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 3: like get him in the super Bowl, when if he 235 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 3: wins the super Bowl, he can write his own ticket. 236 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: Yep, yep. So it's all upside. 237 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 3: They're playing with how after they made the mistake, they're 238 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 3: still playing with house money, And that's crazy. 239 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 2: This wild, Yes, it is completely wild, and it does 240 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 2: bring up the question of what to do next based 241 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 2: on what happens in their next two preseason games.

What do you do here? 306 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 2: You got a fan base that's still largely anxious to 307 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 2: see the guy play and does not believe he should 308 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 2: be written off yet. However, you've spent real money and time, 309 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 2: and apparently there's excitement at least within the coaching ranks 310 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 2: about Sam Darnold as the backup. And then you bring 311 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 2: in Brandon Allen. He was Joe Burrow's backup last year. 312 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 2: He's QB four right now. He out there and look 313 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 2: pretty good today and they seem to like him and 314 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 2: they give him real practice reps. 315 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 1: So what do you do here? Let's say there. 316 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:13,360 Speaker 2: Is no trade value, are you keeping Trey Lance as 317 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 2: your backup? Even if and I don't know this to 318 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:20,959 Speaker 2: be the case, but what if Kyle Shanahan come the 319 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,919 Speaker 2: end of the month does not feel that Trey Lance 320 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 2: is even his second best quarterback? 321 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 6: What do you do? 322 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 3: You don't have to do anything. That is the beauty 323 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 3: of the rookie deal. That is the beauty of Hey, 324 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 3: it didn't work out, We're not suffering. We don't need 325 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 3: to find a replacement for Trey Lance because we already 326 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 3: have one. So this need to find and get some 327 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 3: sort of value back from him isn't present currently. He's 328 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 3: on a rookie deal, in the third year of a 329 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 3: rookie do so you have this year and another year 330 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 3: before you even have to decide to do anything. I'm 331 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 3: almost positive they won't pick up his rookiek his fifth year. 332 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: Fifth year, right yep. But until then you don't have 333 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 1: to do anything. 334 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 2: Well, I guess my question comes from, you're not going 335 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 2: to keep all four No, and the forty nine ers are. 336 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 2: They have a lot of PTSD about quarterback injuries, so 337 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 2: I don't think they want to get rid of a 338 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,479 Speaker 2: quarterback who they think may end up needing to play. 339 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:42,439 Speaker 2: So are you just letting Sam Donald or Brandon Allen, 340 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 2: are you letting them off the roster while keeping Trey Lance? 341 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 2: Even if you don't think that Trey Lance is one 342 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 2: of your two or three best options, you. 343 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 7: Will keep Sam Donald. They really like Sam. They know 344 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 7: if unfor some situations happen, Sam can come in and 345 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 7: win in ball games, they can't. And I think in 346 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 7: this system, in the Kyle Shanahan system, I think he 347 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 7: could be tremendously effective, especially with the talent around him offensively. 348 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 7: And you're gonna keep Trey Lance. You're gonna keep Trey Lance. 349 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 7: Trey Lance to be number three. He'll move up to 350 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 7: number two if one of the you know, unforeseen things 351 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 7: happened to the quarterback, and then you're fine. You may 352 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 7: relegate Alan to practice squad. I don't know if he'd 353 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:37,880 Speaker 7: stay there. 354 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,439 Speaker 2: He's too experienced to end up on a practice squad, 355 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 2: don't you think? 356 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: Then so be it. But you're gonna keep three? Yeah? Yeah, 357 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 1: I just wow. 358 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, it's never I don't recall ever really 359 00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:01,439 Speaker 2: seeing anything like this. We've seen high level draft picks 360 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 2: that you know, within a couple of years, a fan 361 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 2: base may have turned on him, a coaching staff may 362 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 2: have turned on him, But that's usually after that young 363 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 2: man has you. 364 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: Know, played football. Not this time. 365 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 2: I mean the number three overall pick in the draft 366 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 2: and three years worth of first round draft capital. 367 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:28,719 Speaker 1: And he's got four starts. He's got four starts. 368 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 2: So people who are frustrated by the lack of even 369 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 2: getting to see him play, and I would imagine his 370 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 2: own frustration. Yes, injuries were involved, but there is a 371 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 2: point there. There is a point there where it's like, 372 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,119 Speaker 2: how can you how can you make a move like 373 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 2: that and then just never find out, just never play. 374 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 3: Well, they gave him opportunity. It's not like they didn't 375 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 3: give him an opportunity. 376 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 1: That's true. 377 00:21:55,800 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 3: So it we can't sit here and say, well, they 378 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 3: didn't give him a chance. Man, they didn't give Remember 379 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 3: they ran out of quarterbacks. 380 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,479 Speaker 2: Well, a lot of people do feel that way. I 381 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 2: agree with you. I will let you. 382 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 3: Know the way he was the starter last year to 383 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 3: open that sea play five quarters, and he played five quarters. 384 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: Whose fault is that? Is that? The forty nine ers. 385 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 2: You'd be shocked at how many people do believe that. Yes, 386 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 2: that's ridiculous. They believe they believe that Trey Lance was 387 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 2: run up the middle of the field way too much 388 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 2: and it put him in harm's way. 389 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't make the proper read and throw the 390 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 3: ball down the field. Then they weren't running Brock Party 391 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 3: up the middle, were they? 392 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: No? 393 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 3: Could Brock Perdy throw the ball down the field probably 394 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 3: the best throw of the football they had on their roster, 395 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:54,719 Speaker 3: including Garroppolo. 396 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: For down the field. Yes, yes, so if you. 397 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 3: Can't connect, We've seen Trey miss On targets down the field, 398 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 3: throw the ball late, not have the proper reads. We've 399 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 3: seen all of that. Now, the forty nine ers aren't 400 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 3: in a rebuild year. They're not in a normally win 401 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 3: a team drafts a quarterback within the top three or 402 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 3: top five. They are in a rebuild situation that is 403 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 3: not the forty nine ers. They're in a win now situation. 404 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 3: Just like us on this show. We're in a win 405 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 3: now situation. So if we want to win now, then 406 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 3: we must. We must. It's imperative that we bring in 407 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 3: Steve w de Sager. 408 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 1: Got to go with a guy there we go. 409 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 6: Good evening, gentlemen, Good to be what you wants today. 410 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 8: You know, we've talked about the Oakland A's maybe a 411 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 8: few times on this show Maria Sundays. 412 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 1: Give me More, Give me More.

Mark 511 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 2: ward E from Salami from if I just like the 512 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,120 Speaker 2: world is your oyster on this question? Like beyond the obvious, 513 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:36,719 Speaker 2: and I guess the obvious in this case would just 514 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 2: be you know, NFL like we love it above all else. 515 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 2: Beyond that answer, what are you most excited about with 516 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 2: this upcoming season. 517 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 3: I'm really excited about the next steps. Right when you 518 00:28:54,800 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 3: look at the success of some of the young quarterbacks and. 519 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: Most of all, Justin Fields. Okay, right now. 520 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 3: He came out in this preseason game and I get 521 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 3: in this preseason he threw three passes for one hundred 522 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 3: and twenty five yards, two for touchdowns. And to me, 523 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, all right, because we had this same 524 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 3: thought in conversation about Jalen Hurts prior to last year. 525 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 3: Remember what are what is he going to do? What 526 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 3: are the Philadelphia Eagles going to do with him? Are 527 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 3: this is a naking a breaking year for him? Is 528 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 3: he going to be replaced? All of these things we're 529 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 3: circling around, and he came out and shut everybody up 530 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 3: all the way to the Super Bowl. And I'm looking 531 00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 3: to see which one of these young quarterbacks can take 532 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 3: that next step the Trevor Lawrence after having a real 533 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 3: year of of of a solid foundation and and and 534 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 3: culture in Jacksonville. I'm looking to see if Justin Fields 535 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 3: can not be one of the greatest running quarterbacks of 536 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 3: all time, uh, but an actual quarterback that can manage 537 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 3: big take and and and and lead his team to victory. 538 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 3: That I'm that's I'm so excited for that. I want 539 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 3: to see if brock Party coming back from the injury 540 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 3: can continue where we where we were so excited, where 541 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 3: he left off in the NFC Championship game. That's what 542 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 3: I'm looking forward to. I can't I can't wait. I 543 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 3: want I like your answer. I want to ask you 544 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 3: this about fields. You mentioned the two touchdowns. Did you 545 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 3: see him? Did you look at the highlights? 546 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: Yes? You did? Yeah, so you know you know that 547 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: Justin's two throws both traveled about three yards. To get it, 548 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 1: I get it now. 549 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 2: Not to take anything away from him, because I would 550 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 2: actually argue that the Bears last year had the worst 551 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 2: collection of skill position talent, as. 552 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 1: They call it. 553 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 2: They actually all have skills, but the skill position talent, 554 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 2: the running backs, the wide receivers and the tight ends. 555 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 2: I would argue the Bears was right there with the 556 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 2: worst collection of skill position players in the entire NFL. 557 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 2: So granted, one of these long touchdown runs was by 558 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 2: Khalil Herbert, and he was there last year, but he 559 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 2: wasn't their lead back. 560 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: This year he is, and he. 561 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 2: Never had anyone who was even worthy of being what 562 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 2: I think is a true wide receiver two, let alone 563 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 2: a wide receiver one. And now he's got DJ Moore 564 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 2: and so that will change his life, like right right, 565 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 2: So that is a factor, and it's worthwhile now in 566 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 2: discussion about what was holding justin fields back before. Among 567 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 2: those things, some of them are on him and some 568 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 2: of them were on the roster. 569 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 3: Oh, they had a terrible roster. You're absolutely right about that. 570 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 3: Another one of the things that I'm and i'm me 571 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 3: and everybody else in the world who follows the NFL. 572 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 3: I'm very excited to see what Lamar Jackson looks like 573 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 3: in this new offense, this new pass first offense, something 574 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 3: we haven't seen in Lamar's tenure at quarterback. There you optimistic, 575 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 3: I am, I'm very optimistic. I mean talent in this talent. 576 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 3: He clearly has the talent to do anything he wants 577 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 3: on the football field, But can we do it in 578 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 3: the context of the offense on a scheduled offense, I 579 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 3: should say, opposed to making these plays off schedule and 580 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 3: just being great on his own. 581 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 2: I'm looking around the leg based on your answer, and 582 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 2: I would say that maybe there are six, maybe seven 583 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 2: quarterbacks that fit your description where we need to see 584 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 2: what do you got next? And some of them fit 585 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 2: what you were just saying, young guy coming into his own. 586 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: Some of them don't fit. 587 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 2: That description at all, but they they also still remain 588 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 2: in that situation. We can run through that list here 589 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 2: coming up in just a second with e from Salam. 590 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: It's Mark Willard on Fox. 591 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 2: Sports Radio, Okay, Live in the tire Rack dot Com Studios, 592 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 2: Ephrom Salam, Mark Willard, Ephram. 593 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 1: Here here's my list. 594 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 2: Because you said you're really looking forward to some young 595 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 2: quarterbacks to seeing what their next step is. I got 596 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 2: I got a few of those, and then I got 597 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 2: some old ones who I want to see what their 598 00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 2: next step is. 599 00:33:56,200 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: What is Jared Goff's next step is? 600 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 2: What is Geno Smith's next step? These guys have been 601 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 2: around for a minute. One of them has been to 602 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 2: a super Bowl. Left for dead Gino Smith? Of course 603 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 2: they wrote him off. He didn't right back. He went 604 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,840 Speaker 2: to the playoffs. Jared Goff almost did. We've all decided 605 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 2: that Jared Goff is going this year. Maybe we're a 606 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:26,279 Speaker 2: little bit cart before the horse there. But there's young, 607 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 2: there's old, and then there's tweener. For me, the young 608 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 2: ones you sort of mentioned it, I got Fields, Trevor Lawrence, 609 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 2: Rock Party. 610 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 1: What do you have for an encore? Maybe to two. 611 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,879 Speaker 2: And then there's the Tweener, which for me is justin 612 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 2: Herbert and maybe we should still just call him a 613 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 2: young quarterback, but it feels like he's been anointed as one. 614 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: Of the elites for a few years. 615 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 2: Already, and so I'd really like to see that end up. Yes, 616 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 2: he made the playoffs last year year. Yes, his offense 617 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,319 Speaker 2: looked good in the first half of that game. But 618 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 2: does he actually join the Mahomes, the Allens, the Burroughs, 619 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,400 Speaker 2: or does he just continue to do that in the 620 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 2: fantasy realm? And then the old guys Golf, Gino Smith, 621 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 2: those are the guys I'm really looking forward to seeing 622 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 2: what they've got for an encore. 623 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think this is the season of next steps, 624 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 3: and it could refer to a young quarterback, or it 625 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:38,280 Speaker 3: can refer to an old quarterback like you just mentioned. 626 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. What's his next step? Oh? 627 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:45,440 Speaker 3: Good lord, we haven't seen him be good. I mean 628 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 3: that was a rough Yeah, that was a rough first outing. 629 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,280 Speaker 3: That was a rough first outing. And I'm talking about 630 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 3: this preseason. Yeah, yesterday, but now yes, yeahs ago, whatever 631 00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 3: it was. 632 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,919 Speaker 1: Were you surprised that he was out there that much? 633 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 3: Well, I think Sean wants him to get a handle 634 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 3: on things. He was so bad last year. I think 635 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 3: he's trying to get some of his confidence back. I'm 636 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:14,280 Speaker 3: not quite sure that was what happened in that game. 637 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 3: Offensive line's got to do a better job. He's got 638 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:20,879 Speaker 3: to get rid of the ball. But the last thing 639 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,879 Speaker 3: you want is your starting quarterback, your franchise quarterback, taking 640 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 3: hits in the preseason. That's the last thing you want. 641 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,879 Speaker 1: Well, that's what I'm saying. I mean, I get it. 642 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 2: I feel like you and I actually even talked about 643 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 2: it last week. 644 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 1: I get it. 645 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson should play this preseason because they do have 646 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 2: whether it's rust to shake off or just bad vibes 647 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:46,400 Speaker 2: or whatever it is that happened last year, and so 648 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:48,799 Speaker 2: you've got a whole new system and all of that. 649 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:53,239 Speaker 2: But gosh, he played, not just go out there and 650 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 2: get some reps. 651 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:57,320 Speaker 1: Like he played a lot and he got hit a lot. 652 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,800 Speaker 2: So if your offensive line, and I have no idea 653 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 2: if those were the starters or not, I would assume 654 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 2: they mostly were. If you're gonna play Russell Wilson, you're 655 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 2: gonna put your good protection. 656 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 1: In front of him, I think. But like I got to. 657 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 2: Concern either way, either you're putting Russell Wilson in front 658 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 2: of second stringers or if those are your first stringers, woof, 659 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,759 Speaker 2: because I mean he couldn't even get he couldn't even 660 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,320 Speaker 2: get to his seventh step on the seventh step drop. 661 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 2: He couldn't even get there, and they were in his face. 662 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: It was pretty tough man. 663 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:38,200 Speaker 3: Uh So I really want to see how that's gonna 664 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:43,320 Speaker 3: shake out, because it didn't look good at all. Didn't 665 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:46,640 Speaker 3: look good at all just from what we saw. He 666 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 3: played extended minutes, got banged around a little bit, didn't 667 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 3: look comfortable and it didn't look comfortable in the offense 668 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 3: to me, And so really interested to see what his 669 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 3: next step is because if he steps, if he continues 670 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 3: to step down this cliff that he was on, then 671 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:12,359 Speaker 3: this is this It's over. It's over. So yeah, man, 672 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:18,800 Speaker 3: like Jared Goff, is it a rebirth? Be a great story, 673 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 3: great story for him to to to regain his winning 674 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:28,920 Speaker 3: ways in his confidence, because you can be shaken professional athletes. 675 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 3: You can lose your confidence, that's a real thing for sure. 676 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:36,839 Speaker 3: And can you get it back? Can you? 677 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: Well? Can? Yeah? You know what? 678 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 2: Golf is this example of something that admittedly, like I 679 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 2: waffle on this, I'd love to hear what you think, 680 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 2: because I go back and forth on this, and that 681 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 2: is is the team about the great quarterback? Or is 682 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 2: the great quarterback a production of the team. Tom Brady 683 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 2: is the most recent example of like, well, look he 684 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:07,839 Speaker 2: was there and they were good, and then he went 685 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 2: over there and then they were good, and so you're like, 686 00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 2: it's the quarterback. But then if you follow, for instance, 687 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:19,719 Speaker 2: teams like how about what the Rams did? Matt Stafford 688 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 2: was one thing. His whole life goes to the Rams. 689 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 2: Poof Super Bowl. You hear it a lot with the 690 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:28,480 Speaker 2: forty nine ers, Jimmy Garoppolo now Brock Purdy, always a 691 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 2: product of a great system and great teammates. 692 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,719 Speaker 1: Jared Golf last year was all. 693 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 2: Of a sudden out front of a pretty high flying offense, 694 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 2: which even when he was good with the Rams, I 695 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 2: don't know that I would have ever referred to him 696 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 2: that way. 697 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,359 Speaker 1: No, they was putting up points in boat lows. Man. 698 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:49,399 Speaker 1: They just couldn't stop anybody, right right, So I don't know, man, 699 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:50,839 Speaker 1: which is it chicken of the egg? 700 00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:57,759 Speaker 3: We'll find out. We'll find out this year. That's what 701 00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 3: this segment was about what are we looking forward to? 702 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 3: What are we most interested in seeing? And I think 703 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,879 Speaker 3: we're aligned in that it seems like it's coming off 704 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:10,400 Speaker 3: from the quarterback position, old young, new it. 705 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:18,399 Speaker 1: You know, I tell you what, Derek car looked good. Yep, yep. 706 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 2: I mean the Saints should should probably win that division. 707 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,839 Speaker 3: The way the James Winston look good. They got two 708 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,799 Speaker 3: quarterbacks out there, they. 709 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 2: Might have the two best quarterbacks in the entire division 710 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:33,720 Speaker 2: quite frankly. 711 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 9: So. 712 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 2: All right, So some more whirl around NFL questions based 713 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 2: on the start of this season coming up next with 714 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,640 Speaker 2: me from Salama Mark Willard, and we will continue right 715 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:46,840 Speaker 2: here on Fox Sports Radio. 716 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 5: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 717 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:53,360 Speaker 5: the nation.

Chiefs, the Bengals, the Jags, 744 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:26,319 Speaker 2: the Bills. Done right, I'd bet a billion dollars that 745 00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:31,360 Speaker 2: it won't go that way, A billion that I would 746 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 2: bet a billion dollars that it won't go that way. 747 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 2: So what if I asked it to you this way. 748 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:41,839 Speaker 2: I pulled the top ten teams in NFL Super Bowl 749 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 2: odds this year. You tell me which one is most 750 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 2: likely to miss the playoffs entirely. Top ten right now, 751 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:57,200 Speaker 2: NFL Super Bowl odds in order, Chiefs, Bills, Eagles, Bengals, 752 00:42:57,239 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 2: forty nine Ers, Cowboys, that's Ravens, Lions, Dolphins. 753 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 3: I would say, just right off the top of my head, 754 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:15,880 Speaker 3: I would say the Cowboys. 755 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 1: Cowboys. Cowboys. Now why say that? 756 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 3: The one thing we know for sure about Dallas is, 757 00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:30,839 Speaker 3: no matter how good the team presumes to be, are 758 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:38,160 Speaker 3: the buzz around the team, there's a letdown coming. There's 759 00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 3: a letdown coming. 760 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:40,879 Speaker 1: There's always a lot of bark. 761 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 2: You're right, there's a lot of bark, and sometimes there's 762 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:44,040 Speaker 2: a bike. 763 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 3: I think they're an injury away from not being read 764 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,839 Speaker 3: like we don't. If they don't have a running game, 765 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,719 Speaker 3: a real running game, they don't get there all pro 766 00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 3: send guard back in like we They're one thing away 767 00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:09,400 Speaker 3: from not even competing in the division. So just with 768 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:16,440 Speaker 3: that list, I would definitely put them there. There's always 769 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:21,759 Speaker 3: so much hype surrounding the Dallas Cowboys, and then at 770 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 3: the end of the year, it really is so we've 771 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:28,719 Speaker 3: seen it for decades. 772 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 1: We've seen it. 773 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 3: Since the nineties, and they've had good teams, they've had 774 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 3: all pros, they've had all these things, and it just, 775 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 3: for whatever reason, it never completely pans out. 776 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:55,480 Speaker 2: Well, they're a highly touted team, yet every year, not 777 00:44:56,560 --> 00:45:00,840 Speaker 2: every single year, however, they are the highest Super odds 778 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 2: of any team that is not expected to even win 779 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:04,480 Speaker 2: its own division. 780 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: So that's interesting to me. 781 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 2: Now, obviously there's only eight divisions, but you know, you 782 00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 2: look at this list and there's a couple of divisions 783 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 2: that don't even get a team. You know, the AFC 784 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:22,960 Speaker 2: South doesn't have a team on this list, The NFC 785 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,240 Speaker 2: South doesn't have a team on this list. The NFC 786 00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,920 Speaker 2: North barely has a team on this list. The AFC 787 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:36,400 Speaker 2: East has three, which is by definition sort of off 788 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:40,200 Speaker 2: and interesting, Like, I don't know how a team the 789 00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:44,440 Speaker 2: Miami Dolphins are considered tenth most likely to make the 790 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,400 Speaker 2: Super Bowl, yet they're supposed to also be third in 791 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 2: their division. 792 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:50,400 Speaker 1: Which is difficult to do. 793 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 2: Pretty hard to get to the super Bowl when you're 794 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 2: not even in the top half of your own division, right, 795 00:45:57,160 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 2: So I get that kind of of landscape, and sometimes 796 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 2: that's the way I look at it. You look at Dallas, 797 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:08,000 Speaker 2: you sort of mentioned if one thing goes wrong, you know, 798 00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:11,080 Speaker 2: you look at who's in their division that could take 799 00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,319 Speaker 2: advantage of it. We all think the Eagles are going 800 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:17,000 Speaker 2: to be good. Washington, I don't know what to think 801 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,320 Speaker 2: about them this year. They're not that much of a threat, 802 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:22,720 Speaker 2: but they have a really good defense, and I don't 803 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:25,320 Speaker 2: know what they're going to offer at the quarterback position. 804 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 2: Maybe somebody who plays there is going to be good. 805 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. 806 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:34,280 Speaker 2: And then you got the Giants, who, gosh, it feels 807 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:37,719 Speaker 2: like they should regress because even if they played the 808 00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 2: exact same way they did last year, you figure that's 809 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:41,360 Speaker 2: going to. 810 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:45,360 Speaker 1: Be more more losing than it was last time around. 811 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,120 Speaker 2: Like the Vikings and Giants sort of felt like the 812 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:51,640 Speaker 2: teams that just they skated in there because a lot 813 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:53,719 Speaker 2: of things bounced their way at. 814 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 1: The end of games. But you know, there's no pushovers 815 00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:03,040 Speaker 1: in there, no, no, it's. 816 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 3: It's the great thing about the NFL season is it's 817 00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 3: only seventeen games, but there's so many ebbs and flows 818 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,719 Speaker 3: during the season. Ye we all know injury plays a 819 00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:28,479 Speaker 3: huge part in the success of a team. You lose 820 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:31,160 Speaker 3: one or two key players. There are very few teams 821 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 3: that can survive one or two major injuries. I don't 822 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:43,240 Speaker 3: think any can survive it at the quarterback position, except 823 00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:46,239 Speaker 3: for the San Francisco forty nine ers, which is a 824 00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:50,799 Speaker 3: weird thing to say twice a weird thing to say, 825 00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:56,280 Speaker 3: but we've seen them do it, and that's a luxury 826 00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 3: that the majority of the teams in the league do. 827 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:06,279 Speaker 1: They don't have that at all, maybe based. 828 00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:08,719 Speaker 3: On what we saw today, and I get it it's 829 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 3: only preseason, but in that division, the New Orleans Saints, 830 00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:20,320 Speaker 3: if something were to happen to Derek Carr and Jameis 831 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:23,640 Speaker 3: Winston were to come in, I don't think they lose 832 00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 3: a step. Yeah, but they're They're not a lot of teams. 833 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:32,719 Speaker 3: We saw what happened in Miami. If Tour goes down there, 834 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 3: that's a rap. Josh Allen goes down, that's a rap. 835 00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 3: Even you know Patrick. 836 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 1: Mahomes, Oh sure for sure. 837 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:50,800 Speaker 3: So there you know. It's that's what the NFL season 838 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 3: brings you. Every week. There's anticipation, there's excitement. The injury 839 00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:00,879 Speaker 3: reports are coming out, like we're going to see It's 840 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:02,840 Speaker 3: I've always said it's a war of attrition. 841 00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:08,359 Speaker 2: You know, you're you're talking about what some of these 842 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 2: quarterbacks look like in the preseason and and uh and 843 00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:17,080 Speaker 2: therefore expressing some optimism. You mentioned Derek Carr Jamis Winston, 844 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 2: who both uh played played well in limited duty with 845 00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:24,720 Speaker 2: the Saints. And I think this is an age oh question, 846 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:28,600 Speaker 2: and it leads to arguments, and I'm already readying for 847 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:32,520 Speaker 2: the arguments that will come uh for you know, the 848 00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:37,239 Speaker 2: weekday sports media cycle that will start tomorrow after everybody's 849 00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:44,160 Speaker 2: team played, which is A did someone look good slash bad? 850 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:49,359 Speaker 2: Or B does it not matter at all because it's 851 00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:53,040 Speaker 2: the preseason and A B, C, D, E or F 852 00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 2: could be going on right Like I didn't have my 853 00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:02,160 Speaker 2: starting offensive line, i didn't my starting receivers. I'm actually 854 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:05,240 Speaker 2: trying some different things to see what will or won't 855 00:50:05,239 --> 00:50:09,280 Speaker 2: work in the regular season. The other team was playing 856 00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 2: their starters, we weren't. Like there's all of that versus 857 00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:18,799 Speaker 2: what we actually see. And there have been training camp 858 00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 2: darlings every year every year in the NFL, and sometimes 859 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:27,960 Speaker 2: it means absolutely nothing, sometimes it means everything. You know, 860 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,840 Speaker 2: it was in Los Angeles that Doc Prescott's career was born. 861 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:37,360 Speaker 2: In a preseason game and he went crazy and people 862 00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:40,040 Speaker 2: were intrigued by it, and then Tony Romo got hurt 863 00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:41,279 Speaker 2: and poof, that was it. 864 00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:42,640 Speaker 1: That was it. 865 00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:46,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he hadn't given up the job since. So 866 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:49,879 Speaker 2: you know, take Stetson Bennett for the Rams last night. 867 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,759 Speaker 2: Are you putting something into this or not? Like he 868 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:54,440 Speaker 2: looked good. 869 00:50:55,520 --> 00:51:00,480 Speaker 3: Well, the first four passes he threw did have been 870 00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:04,160 Speaker 3: intercepted ran back not so good, right, right, But then 871 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:09,480 Speaker 3: I'm just saying like, if those if the defenders catch 872 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:13,399 Speaker 3: the ball, well, right, this is a whole different type 873 00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 3: of story we're talking about right now. That would be 874 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:20,400 Speaker 3: twenty one. There'll be three pick sixes. I'm telling you 875 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 3: right in the first four passes that was crowd was like, 876 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,320 Speaker 3: oh my god, this kid is oh good, good lord. 877 00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:28,920 Speaker 2: Right, but don't be a box score baby when you 878 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:32,040 Speaker 2: look at preseason games, correct because correct. For example, I 879 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 2: mentioned it already last hour. Trey Lance today went ten 880 00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:39,320 Speaker 2: to fifteen with one touchdown. Go look at the highlight 881 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,880 Speaker 2: of his touchdown. He hucked the ball literally at the 882 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 2: chest of a Raider player. That Raider player cradled the 883 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:49,280 Speaker 2: ball for a moment, then decided to lose it hucking 884 00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:52,200 Speaker 2: about five yards in the other direction where it hit 885 00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:55,080 Speaker 2: the chest of the forty nine or tight end touchdown, 886 00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:59,280 Speaker 2: and his quarterback rating. The difference in that one pass 887 00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 2: being caught by a forty nine or as opposed to 888 00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:05,440 Speaker 2: a raider, his quarterback rating was one to eleven to day. 889 00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 2: If that raider simply catches that pass, it's thirty three. 890 00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:14,360 Speaker 1: Yeah. 891 00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:18,520 Speaker 2: So yeah, it's you're going against the you're going against 892 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 2: the second string and secondary off the other team, and 893 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:23,240 Speaker 2: you know, even the first. 894 00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:25,359 Speaker 1: String secondary sometimes doesn't know how to catch the ball. 895 00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:29,080 Speaker 3: But but that was bad. I was like, again, it 896 00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 3: just kept happening again. 897 00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 1: Well, so I get. I mean that's the simplistic question. 898 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:37,719 Speaker 2: Do we take anything out of all of this that 899 00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:38,920 Speaker 2: we watched this weekend? 900 00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:40,680 Speaker 1: Is there anything we can take from it? 901 00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:45,560 Speaker 3: No, it's it's uh, the really the one thing you 902 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:49,759 Speaker 3: really want to see is if these young quarterbacks are 903 00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:55,680 Speaker 3: quarterbacks in a new system, if they're progressing with the press, 904 00:52:55,719 --> 00:53:00,439 Speaker 3: if they're if they're understanding and have command of these 905 00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:04,960 Speaker 3: that's really what you're looking at now, young quarterbacks, rookies 906 00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:05,879 Speaker 3: coming in there. 907 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:07,839 Speaker 1: I get the jitter aspect of it. 908 00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:13,439 Speaker 3: I get the you know, everything is so much faster, right, 909 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 3: But you gotta be able to survive that because in 910 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:22,360 Speaker 3: four weeks it gets even faster. And I think that 911 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:26,440 Speaker 3: was the thing that everybody saw with Dak Prescott. It 912 00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:30,120 Speaker 3: the game didn't seem too fast for him in the preseason. 913 00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:34,000 Speaker 3: He just stepped right on in, came right out of 914 00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:36,839 Speaker 3: the preseason right into the regular season, and he kept 915 00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:42,239 Speaker 3: the same pace. It never seemed like the game was 916 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:45,960 Speaker 3: moving too fast, it was too big for him, and 917 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:52,200 Speaker 3: he just completely had control of the offense. Now that's 918 00:53:52,239 --> 00:53:55,480 Speaker 3: what I'm looking for when I'm looking at these young quarterbacks. 919 00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 3: And shout out to Patrick Mahomes for playing in the preseason, 920 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:01,000 Speaker 3: and I thought that was dope. 921 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:03,680 Speaker 1: He played yep, yep, he went two for two. 922 00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:05,919 Speaker 3: So if we keep taking random brand the ball time, 923 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:12,479 Speaker 3: I'm like my brother, like, I was like, come on. 924 00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:16,560 Speaker 2: Now, oh gosh, seriously, So, yes, what did we learn 925 00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:17,200 Speaker 2: this weekend? 926 00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:20,279 Speaker 1: Mahomes is still good? He said, that's that's that's what 927 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:21,080 Speaker 1: I got out. 928 00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:23,960 Speaker 2: Of out of this weekend, for sure.

Thank you. 943 00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:12,760 Speaker 2: We appreciate it. The football season less than a month away. 944 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:15,080 Speaker 2: How would you answer that question that I threw out 945 00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:17,080 Speaker 2: there a couple of minutes ago, Ephraim, if you had 946 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:20,120 Speaker 2: to pick one player not name Mahomes, Alan or Hurtz 947 00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:23,919 Speaker 2: that you think could win Most Valuable Player this year? 948 00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:25,399 Speaker 2: What name are you sticking in there? 949 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:32,160 Speaker 3: That's a that's that's a tough one, man, But well, 950 00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:33,319 Speaker 3: I do ask the tough question. 951 00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 1: You're doing. 952 00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:36,360 Speaker 3: That's what I do, and I was I was thinking. 953 00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:48,040 Speaker 3: I came up with two answers. Okay, one Lamar Jackson, yep, 954 00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:50,880 Speaker 3: that up before. I think he is going to exhale 955 00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 3: in this new offense. I think it's going to really 956 00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:56,920 Speaker 3: open the field up for him and allow him to 957 00:55:57,000 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 3: extend plays in the way that we've seen him do 958 00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:06,799 Speaker 3: over the years, but also less designed runs, which makes 959 00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:09,960 Speaker 3: him even more dangerous in the pocket as a scrambler. 960 00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:14,920 Speaker 3: And then I think justin Herbert, I think getting Kellen 961 00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:21,000 Speaker 3: Moore over there and and really Hone, He's already talented, 962 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:26,920 Speaker 3: We've already seen that. I think the receiving corps. I 963 00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:31,560 Speaker 3: think what they're doing offensively is going to give him 964 00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:37,719 Speaker 3: that extra push to be great, not just good, and 965 00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:38,840 Speaker 3: I'm looking forward to it. 966 00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:44,239 Speaker 2: Both of them are going to get a little, as 967 00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:48,640 Speaker 2: you're saying, little adjustment and what's been going on offensively 968 00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:53,560 Speaker 2: for Baltimore. You hope that that is a little further 969 00:56:53,640 --> 00:56:58,200 Speaker 2: in keeping Lamar Jackson healthy. And I mean that both 970 00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:02,279 Speaker 2: physically and maybe like it did feel at the end 971 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:07,200 Speaker 2: of the last season, Oh yeah, right, like well as 972 00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:10,960 Speaker 2: fans were sitting here going are you hurt or are 973 00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:11,480 Speaker 2: you mad? 974 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:13,080 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? 975 00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:16,440 Speaker 2: And then we know that in the off season he 976 00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:19,840 Speaker 2: was mad and uh, and then it got to a 977 00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:24,120 Speaker 2: point where I think it's okay now, and so maybe 978 00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:28,440 Speaker 2: it's a it's a clean slate there. And then the Chargers, well, 979 00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 2: the Chargers, Charger, man, they just do they do they 980 00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:37,320 Speaker 2: always do, and and you're hoping that this year they 981 00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:41,080 Speaker 2: won't be that team that you look at and you go, gosh, 982 00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:45,720 Speaker 2: you got all you everything, you got everything, and you 983 00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:49,160 Speaker 2: find ways to mess it up and you just do 984 00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:50,200 Speaker 2: weird things. 985 00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:51,120 Speaker 1: Right. 986 00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 2: It is like the fourth down in your own like 987 00:57:54,720 --> 00:57:57,760 Speaker 2: what are you doing?

And you know, noticing 1005 00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:57,880 Speaker 3: the two players that I picked are in divisions with 1006 00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:05,920 Speaker 3: top tier talent. Chargers with of course Mahomes and Kansas 1007 00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:11,440 Speaker 3: City yep uh, and then Baltimore with Joe Burrow and 1008 00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:16,080 Speaker 3: the Bengals. So you know, you play those teams twice 1009 00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:20,840 Speaker 3: a year, you outplay them, that boosts your you know 1010 00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:26,720 Speaker 3: that that booths boost your your your MVP score without 1011 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:27,200 Speaker 3: a doubt. 1012 00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:31,919 Speaker 2: So well, that whole division, I wonder, man, the ANFC North, 1013 00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:35,200 Speaker 2: like that's kind of that's the classic division I'm talking about. 1014 00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:38,480 Speaker 2: When we all decide, well, the Bengals will win that division, 1015 00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:42,720 Speaker 2: it's like, are you sure? I don't know if anybody 1016 00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:46,440 Speaker 2: in that division is bad. I don't actually know that 1017 00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:49,320 Speaker 2: any of the other three teams are good, but I 1018 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:52,360 Speaker 2: don't know that they're bad. And history will tell us 1019 00:59:52,760 --> 00:59:55,800 Speaker 2: that no matter what Mike Tomlin's going on, they'll win 1020 00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:56,640 Speaker 2: nine games. 1021 00:59:57,480 --> 00:59:59,160 Speaker 1: Team out there, no matter what. 1022 00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:01,840 Speaker 2: They're gonna put the you're gonna put that together. And 1023 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:04,760 Speaker 2: then Cleveland is this big mystery. If you ask the 1024 01:00:04,800 --> 01:00:08,200 Speaker 2: fantasy world, the fantasy world will tell you, well, Deshaun 1025 01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:09,160 Speaker 2: Watson is back. 1026 01:00:09,280 --> 01:00:12,480 Speaker 1: Like now here.

I can't say that about any of them. Yeah, 1038 01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:51,080 Speaker 1: it's one of those situations where. 1039 01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:55,840 Speaker 3: You know, it's always been a hard nosed division outside 1040 01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:59,400 Speaker 3: of the Browns. The Browns have been like a stepping 1041 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:05,080 Speaker 3: stone for the division. But now they finally have a 1042 01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:10,320 Speaker 3: viable quarterback, a quarterback with supreme talent. They have young talent, 1043 01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:14,280 Speaker 3: they have a tremendous, ferocious defense. So they have all 1044 01:01:14,320 --> 01:01:16,640 Speaker 3: the pieces. Can they put it all together? 1045 01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:17,960 Speaker 1: Right? 1046 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:24,680 Speaker 3: They got a chance to have their quarterback under center 1047 01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 3: for half the year to knock some of that rust 1048 01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:31,160 Speaker 3: off not coming into this year being the first time 1049 01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:34,320 Speaker 3: Deshaun played in three years, which would have been very difficult. 1050 01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:39,760 Speaker 3: So all eyes are on can they make them take 1051 01:01:39,800 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 3: that step after they answered the question that they've been 1052 01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:48,800 Speaker 3: trying to answer for twenty years, right since Bernie Colesar. 1053 01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:54,520 Speaker 2: Right, gosh, if the Bears, if Bears in the Browns 1054 01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:56,840 Speaker 2: both get good quarterback played in the same year, what 1055 01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:58,360 Speaker 2: on earth are all of us gonna do? 1056 01:01:58,520 --> 01:02:01,160 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, I'm gonna enjoy football. 1057 01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:05,000 Speaker 2: I guess, I guess, or I'm gonna start looking around 1058 01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:06,160 Speaker 2: for aliens because. 1059 01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:08,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, this isn't the Earth that I know? They're 1060 01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:09,720 Speaker 1: not Earth Earth? 1061 01:02:09,840 --> 01:02:12,120 Speaker 2: By the way, I might be I might I might 1062 01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:16,880 Speaker 2: be underselling the AFC East also, should should we be 1063 01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:18,560 Speaker 2: able to look at any of those four and go, 1064 01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:20,600 Speaker 2: you should have a losing record this year? 1065 01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:25,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. I mean, what do you think about it? 1066 01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:32,920 Speaker 3: Look, if Coast they'll find a way. 1067 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:34,080 Speaker 1: It's New England. 1068 01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:38,160 Speaker 3: They won't be great and won't be spectacular like they 1069 01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:42,760 Speaker 3: were with Brady, but they'll be uh, you know, they 1070 01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:46,480 Speaker 3: won't be an easy out. They will not be an 1071 01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:51,000 Speaker 3: easy out. No, we know they'll be well coached. 1072 01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:59,240 Speaker 2: When you use the word spectacular, it's it's crazy. Uh 1073 01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:05,560 Speaker 2: the names Eve de Seger just pops to mount. It's crazy, Like, yeah, 1074 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:07,560 Speaker 2: he's real and he's spectacular. 1075 01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:10,480 Speaker 8: Here he is, hello, gentlemen. And I did look it up. 1076 01:03:10,520 --> 01:03:13,720 Speaker 8: That playoff game at Jacksonville last season. It was twenty 1077 01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:16,160 Speaker 8: seven to seven at the half Chargers, but it was 1078 01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:20,560 Speaker 8: twenty seven nothing in the final minutes before halftime, which 1079 01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:24,520 Speaker 8: means everything that's been wrong with this team the last 1080 01:03:24,520 --> 01:03:27,560 Speaker 8: two years came to fruition all in one game. That 1081 01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:31,160 Speaker 8: is for all the news, and it's a legitimate talking point. 1082 01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:33,480 Speaker 8: His first season as coach, the going forward on fourth down. 1083 01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:37,200 Speaker 8: But what's killed them is with him running the team, 1084 01:03:37,680 --> 01:03:41,840 Speaker 8: can't run the football, can't stop the rup literally bottom 1085 01:03:41,880 --> 01:03:44,800 Speaker 8: five in both and still made the playoffs last year 1086 01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:47,960 Speaker 8: with Justin Herbert. So here, you had an enormous lead 1087 01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:51,320 Speaker 8: when Jacksonville was wretched at home in the first half, 1088 01:03:51,840 --> 01:03:54,200 Speaker 8: but you couldn't run the ball to protect a lead. 1089 01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:58,000 Speaker 8: And you can't yet again stop anybody there you go 1090 01:03:58,120 --> 01:04:00,600 Speaker 8: all in one game. Second thing you mentioned early in 1091 01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:03,960 Speaker 8: today's show, you were seeing the Giants comeback win in 1092 01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:06,520 Speaker 8: ten innings. They beat Texas three to two. For those 1093 01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:09,760 Speaker 8: who are unaware, the San Francisco Giants have a young 1094 01:04:09,800 --> 01:04:13,160 Speaker 8: catcher who is truly phenomenal defensive. 1095 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:13,520 Speaker 1: Hobby so far. 1096 01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:17,480 Speaker 8: My man, Patrick Bailey had the two run homer to 1097 01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:20,840 Speaker 8: win the game in the tenth today, but defensively he 1098 01:04:20,920 --> 01:04:23,440 Speaker 8: threw out a runner stealing in a tie game to 1099 01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:26,280 Speaker 8: end the top of the ninth. They have this great 1100 01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:29,720 Speaker 8: thing in baseball the last deca called stat cast more 1101 01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:33,560 Speaker 8: detailed mathematical things where they can tell you to the 1102 01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:37,640 Speaker 8: to the nth degree, to the millisecond of what happened. 1103 01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:41,080 Speaker 8: They have a thing for catchers defensively, pop time. How 1104 01:04:41,160 --> 01:04:44,640 Speaker 8: quickly you received the pitch and throw down to second 1105 01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:47,800 Speaker 8: to try and catch the runner. His pop time to 1106 01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:51,840 Speaker 8: throw out that ninth inning runner fastest to second base 1107 01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:56,160 Speaker 8: in the entire Major leagues this season one point seven 1108 01:04:56,200 --> 01:05:00,880 Speaker 8: to one seconds. And that's hardly the first wow defensive 1109 01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:02,720 Speaker 8: thing he has done for the Giants. 1110 01:05:02,760 --> 01:05:05,960 Speaker 2: There you are speaking, man, I was sitting right behind 1111 01:05:05,960 --> 01:05:07,360 Speaker 2: the disc watching this thing. 1112 01:05:07,320 --> 01:05:08,800 Speaker 1: And it is to behold. 1113 01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:12,920 Speaker 2: It is crazy because that was Duran running to second base. 1114 01:05:13,280 --> 01:05:17,000 Speaker 2: He is fast and the second baby released that, you're like, 1115 01:05:17,160 --> 01:05:18,040 Speaker 2: oh my god. 1116 01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:21,400 Speaker 1: He's very out like Oh my god, it. 1117 01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:25,040 Speaker 2: Is so fast. It is bananas to watch him do it. 1118 01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:28,000 Speaker 2: He and I mean he didn't He's not just a rookie. 1119 01:05:28,040 --> 01:05:30,000 Speaker 2: He didn't come up until it was two months into 1120 01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:30,400 Speaker 2: the year. 1121 01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:35,120 Speaker 8: He has been a fine Yeah to believe he's hitting fine, 1122 01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 8: and he had a rare home run and it was 1123 01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:41,080 Speaker 8: the game winner today. But the defense is just strangely great, 1124 01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:45,120 Speaker 8: really superb. So a tenanning win for the Giants at home. Meanwhile, 1125 01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:48,080 Speaker 8: in ten inning's Baltimore won at Seattle five to three. 1126 01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:51,200 Speaker 8: Chicago Cubs are battling for a wild card spot and 1127 01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:55,600 Speaker 8: lost eleven to four at Toronto. However, Cody Bellinger in 1128 01:05:55,680 --> 01:05:59,320 Speaker 8: the second half is petting three ninety eight with the Cubs. 1129 01:05:59,320 --> 01:06:01,800 Speaker 8: Can we say that out loud?

They're gonna offer you know, like 1290 01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:54,360 Speaker 3: for instance, instead of being in Taiwan playing Dwight Howard 1291 01:14:56,360 --> 01:15:01,040 Speaker 3: would easily go over there and play for fifteen to 1292 01:15:01,040 --> 01:15:02,480 Speaker 3: twenty million dollars. 1293 01:15:02,840 --> 01:15:07,880 Speaker 1: Sure, I guess what's the danger in that? 1294 01:15:08,360 --> 01:15:12,600 Speaker 2: Because if you if you trace the steps back on 1295 01:15:12,640 --> 01:15:17,559 Speaker 2: the golf thing, what players were actually upset about was 1296 01:15:17,600 --> 01:15:21,640 Speaker 2: the fact that there was no guaranteed money. Right you 1297 01:15:22,040 --> 01:15:24,360 Speaker 2: look at some of these other sports, even football with 1298 01:15:24,439 --> 01:15:27,120 Speaker 2: its non guaranteed contracts. When you see a free agent 1299 01:15:27,200 --> 01:15:30,559 Speaker 2: sign it's like, sure they signed for ninety million, fifty 1300 01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:36,680 Speaker 2: millions guaranteed. Well, a golfer on the PGA Tour all 1301 01:15:36,720 --> 01:15:38,559 Speaker 2: the way up to the tiger Woods and the Phil 1302 01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:44,599 Speaker 2: Mickelson's of the world. Nothing, there's no guarantee right right, 1303 01:15:44,720 --> 01:15:48,000 Speaker 2: not until and so that was their number one argument. 1304 01:15:48,880 --> 01:15:51,840 Speaker 2: And I'll be it somewhat of a fair one. Now, 1305 01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:55,360 Speaker 2: an NBA player can't do that, won't do that. There's 1306 01:15:55,400 --> 01:15:59,160 Speaker 2: no way that, right, Lebron James. Maybe in three years, 1307 01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:02,720 Speaker 2: Lebron James. But Gianni's attenda Cumpo is not going to 1308 01:16:02,800 --> 01:16:06,760 Speaker 2: be like, well, I needed to go over there because 1309 01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:11,400 Speaker 2: what your contract is already fully guaranteed. 1310 01:16:11,479 --> 01:16:15,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, we're talking right, We're talking guys who are no 1311 01:16:15,479 --> 01:16:23,120 Speaker 3: longer and like Dwight Howard is a prime example. Obviously 1312 01:16:23,120 --> 01:16:30,120 Speaker 3: he can still play. What's my Jamal Crawford. It's so 1313 01:16:30,439 --> 01:16:37,519 Speaker 3: many of talented players. If I was them, I would 1314 01:16:37,560 --> 01:16:42,519 Speaker 3: just buy the Big Three. But I say that to say. 1315 01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:45,879 Speaker 1: About the Pac twelve because they buy that too anyway. 1316 01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:50,040 Speaker 3: No, I say that to say, if you're a kid 1317 01:16:50,160 --> 01:16:53,000 Speaker 3: coming out of high school and you could go to 1318 01:16:53,080 --> 01:16:58,040 Speaker 3: the G League for two hundred and fifty thousand dollars 1319 01:16:58,360 --> 01:17:01,840 Speaker 3: or five hundred grand, or you can go to college, 1320 01:17:02,600 --> 01:17:07,200 Speaker 3: or you can go play in the the new professional 1321 01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:10,640 Speaker 3: league in the Arab Emirates, the u A Basketball the 1322 01:17:10,960 --> 01:17:19,680 Speaker 3: UE Basketball Association for four million dollars coming out of 1323 01:17:19,680 --> 01:17:23,599 Speaker 3: as A, as A, as a you know, five star 1324 01:17:23,720 --> 01:17:29,639 Speaker 3: recruit coming out of high school. What you finn to do? Well, 1325 01:17:29,680 --> 01:17:30,800 Speaker 3: what you're about to do now? 1326 01:17:31,320 --> 01:17:34,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, So that's how you call family written all over 1327 01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:35,680 Speaker 2: it right, right. 1328 01:17:35,760 --> 01:17:38,080 Speaker 1: But that's how you build up and then the eyes 1329 01:17:38,160 --> 01:17:38,679 Speaker 1: will be there. 1330 01:17:38,720 --> 01:17:41,280 Speaker 3: Because of course, every NBA scout wants to watch these 1331 01:17:41,320 --> 01:17:45,400 Speaker 3: young players playing with these older players and professional But 1332 01:17:45,560 --> 01:17:48,679 Speaker 3: that's man, I should I should get on the phone. 1333 01:17:48,680 --> 01:17:52,000 Speaker 2: Man, Well, so the day. The danger, based on what 1334 01:17:52,040 --> 01:17:54,280 Speaker 2: you're saying, is not to the NBA. The danger is 1335 01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:57,720 Speaker 2: to college basketball. Well, of course, the danger is to 1336 01:17:57,760 --> 01:18:01,400 Speaker 2: college basketball.

So there needs to 1395 01:21:20,320 --> 01:21:24,200 Speaker 2: be some sort of outhouse or some spot on the bench. 1396 01:21:24,880 --> 01:21:26,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe your salary goes away. 1397 01:21:27,479 --> 01:21:30,919 Speaker 2: The Sixers get to save the money because James Harden, 1398 01:21:31,120 --> 01:21:33,320 Speaker 2: who didn't want to be on the Thunder and they 1399 01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:35,360 Speaker 2: didn't want to be on the Rockets, and he didn't 1400 01:21:35,400 --> 01:21:37,240 Speaker 2: want to be on the nets.

I'm not talking about the talent. 1414 01:22:30,680 --> 01:22:33,000 Speaker 3: You know how disruptive that is to a franchise, to 1415 01:22:33,040 --> 01:22:40,880 Speaker 3: a team, to a locker room. So look, I'm like, man, 1416 01:22:42,040 --> 01:22:45,599 Speaker 3: I know Joel and b like what you're playing with 1417 01:22:45,880 --> 01:22:46,599 Speaker 3: the MVP? 1418 01:22:47,800 --> 01:22:51,519 Speaker 1: Right, what else do you want? 1419 01:22:52,479 --> 01:22:56,160 Speaker 2: Y'all were right there, They were right there, They were 1420 01:22:56,360 --> 01:23:01,120 Speaker 2: right there. There's no reason that they couldn't have made 1421 01:23:01,120 --> 01:23:03,200 Speaker 2: the NBA Finals out of the East this year. 1422 01:23:04,800 --> 01:23:06,920 Speaker 1: They were right there. 1423 01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:12,240 Speaker 3: So that part of it, I'm yeah, I'm not feeling 1424 01:23:12,280 --> 01:23:12,760 Speaker 3: that at all. 1425 01:23:15,120 --> 01:23:19,679 Speaker 2: It's just so tired. The whole thing is just so tired. 1426 01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:23,200 Speaker 2: And you mentioned how disruptive it is to teammates. You 1427 01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:25,759 Speaker 2: know what, I feel even worse for. I feel worse 1428 01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:29,600 Speaker 2: for the teams that they're not even on, that they're disrupting. 1429 01:23:30,360 --> 01:23:35,640 Speaker 2: Tyler Hero now hates the Miami Yes, it is like, 1430 01:23:35,920 --> 01:23:39,639 Speaker 2: why am I even in this conversation just because somebody 1431 01:23:39,680 --> 01:23:42,760 Speaker 2: in Portland decided he wanted to play for me, play 1432 01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:45,719 Speaker 2: for my team, and now we got to go through 1433 01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:49,280 Speaker 2: a public dragging of my name when all I did 1434 01:23:49,400 --> 01:23:52,559 Speaker 2: was just play basketball for this team all year. Right, 1435 01:23:53,040 --> 01:23:55,720 Speaker 2: If you're on the Los Angeles Clippers right now, what 1436 01:23:55,760 --> 01:23:56,439 Speaker 2: are you thinking? 1437 01:23:57,080 --> 01:23:58,080 Speaker 1: What have you been told? 1438 01:23:58,880 --> 01:24:03,000 Speaker 2: What's an been thrown out on Twitter or X or 1439 01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:06,280 Speaker 2: whatever you want to call it, from woes or shams 1440 01:24:06,840 --> 01:24:10,920 Speaker 2: that's making you feel all insecure about your standing with 1441 01:24:11,080 --> 01:24:14,720 Speaker 2: your team. So these guys are not just disrupting their 1442 01:24:14,720 --> 01:24:19,519 Speaker 2: own teams, they're disrupting the entire NBA all because they 1443 01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:23,320 Speaker 2: can't seem, for whatever reason, to get along in their 1444 01:24:23,360 --> 01:24:27,320 Speaker 2: current spot. And I'm with you, I'm for player empowerment, 1445 01:24:27,400 --> 01:24:31,360 Speaker 2: player movement, but at a certain point, you and I 1446 01:24:31,400 --> 01:24:37,240 Speaker 2: have talked about this before.

What is the 1452 01:24:53,479 --> 01:24:54,720 Speaker 2: common denominator? 1453 01:24:55,200 --> 01:24:55,720 Speaker 1: James? 1454 01:24:57,080 --> 01:25:02,320 Speaker 2: You dude, Kyrie, Why does every place suck because you're 1455 01:25:02,400 --> 01:25:09,439 Speaker 2: in it. You're there, That's why it stinks, you know. 1456 01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:12,320 Speaker 2: I don't put that on Dame. We've talked a lot 1457 01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:15,439 Speaker 2: about Dame. This is his first rodeo. I think it's 1458 01:25:15,439 --> 01:25:18,360 Speaker 2: been misplayed a little bit. But okay, it's your first rodeo. 1459 01:25:19,520 --> 01:25:24,559 Speaker 2: But some of this stuff, man, it is just such 1460 01:25:24,880 --> 01:25:26,519 Speaker 2: a tired game. 1461 01:25:28,600 --> 01:25:35,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, it really makes you feel like, here we go again. 1462 01:25:37,640 --> 01:25:44,880 Speaker 3: I think the respect of the game, the realizing just 1463 01:25:45,040 --> 01:25:45,960 Speaker 3: how hard. 1464 01:25:48,760 --> 01:25:51,400 Speaker 1: It is to win a championship. Yep. 1465 01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:56,160 Speaker 3: You can't just decide to go somewhere to win one. 1466 01:25:57,920 --> 01:26:00,360 Speaker 3: Even Miami didn't win one when they had the Big 1467 01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:06,960 Speaker 3: Three come in the first year. So it's it's difficult 1468 01:26:08,439 --> 01:26:13,000 Speaker 3: to just all of a sudden change the area code 1469 01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:16,160 Speaker 3: and win a championship. If he comes to the Clippers, 1470 01:26:16,160 --> 01:26:19,040 Speaker 3: they still going to be the Clippers. No, Joe, what 1471 01:26:19,080 --> 01:26:21,000 Speaker 3: do you think is about to happen over here when 1472 01:26:21,000 --> 01:26:23,880 Speaker 3: he finds himself, when he finds himself in March being 1473 01:26:23,920 --> 01:26:26,519 Speaker 3: the only one healthy right. 1474 01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:31,439 Speaker 2: Well, to me, this is the fix because I there's 1475 01:26:31,479 --> 01:26:34,320 Speaker 2: nothing that the team that they want to leave can do. 1476 01:26:34,800 --> 01:26:35,479 Speaker 1: They're stuck. 1477 01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:38,840 Speaker 2: They're either stuck with a disgruntled cry baby on the 1478 01:26:38,880 --> 01:26:42,400 Speaker 2: bench or somebody who's playing at half speed, or they've 1479 01:26:42,400 --> 01:26:45,439 Speaker 2: got to take a trade that is not good for them, 1480 01:26:45,920 --> 01:26:48,680 Speaker 2: so they're totally stuck. The fix to this is the 1481 01:26:48,720 --> 01:26:52,120 Speaker 2: all of the other teams. This is where the Miami 1482 01:26:52,200 --> 01:26:55,520 Speaker 2: heat and again that's not the best example. The Clippers 1483 01:26:56,280 --> 01:26:58,799 Speaker 2: are the better example. This is where the other teams 1484 01:26:58,920 --> 01:27:01,040 Speaker 2: wake up and go, why the hell would we want 1485 01:27:01,120 --> 01:27:01,879 Speaker 2: James Harden. 1486 01:27:02,200 --> 01:27:06,720 Speaker 1: He's just gonna do the same thing to us. I 1487 01:27:07,280 --> 01:27:13,240 Speaker 1: would never I would never trade for James Harden, right. 1488 01:27:13,600 --> 01:27:16,440 Speaker 1: I still don't know why the Mavericks did what they did. 1489 01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:20,520 Speaker 1: I knew it wasn't gonna work. At least he plays 1490 01:27:20,720 --> 01:27:26,040 Speaker 1: in at least right like I guess sometimes ah times 1491 01:27:26,160 --> 01:27:28,560 Speaker 1: James Harden is He's so temperamental. 1492 01:27:28,600 --> 01:27:28,800 Speaker 2: Man. 1493 01:27:28,960 --> 01:27:30,479 Speaker 3: I don't like to be I don't want to be here. 1494 01:27:30,560 --> 01:27:33,160 Speaker 3: But he's done this three times and you're you're right. 1495 01:27:33,200 --> 01:27:35,439 Speaker 3: It's the same with Kyrie, like all of that stuff. Man, 1496 01:27:35,560 --> 01:27:39,280 Speaker 3: get somewhere stick, build a team. It's not Look, they've 1497 01:27:39,320 --> 01:27:44,519 Speaker 3: played with all all NBA All Stars. They've had a 1498 01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:48,679 Speaker 3: team loaded with him. No wins, no championships. 1499 01:27:49,160 --> 01:27:56,759 Speaker 1: Yep. And I'm like, I mean, that's the leverage. 1500 01:27:57,240 --> 01:27:59,960 Speaker 2: The leverage goes away when the rest of the league 1501 01:28:00,120 --> 01:28:04,200 Speaker 2: goes Why would we do that? That's the only way 1502 01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:07,320 Speaker 2: they would get the wake up call Because as long 1503 01:28:07,360 --> 01:28:15,479 Speaker 2: as everybody keeps salivating over stats Uncle Drew for COCTA 1504 01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:20,880 Speaker 2: MVP awards that got handed out because the stats, Russell Westbrook, 1505 01:28:20,960 --> 01:28:25,479 Speaker 2: James Harden, all this stuff. As soon as other teams 1506 01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:28,400 Speaker 2: stop getting wooed by that, the leverage goes away. 1507 01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:32,560 Speaker 1: Trade me to the Clippers. Well we called, they're not interested. 1508 01:28:34,040 --> 01:28:42,600 Speaker 1: Now what I don't want to play. I don't want 1509 01:28:43,000 --> 01:28:43,559 Speaker 1: the MVP. 1510 01:28:47,800 --> 01:28:51,960 Speaker 2: You know, Look, what what's wild is probably I mean 1511 01:28:52,120 --> 01:28:55,120 Speaker 2: under the covers, they probably have some points, you know 1512 01:28:55,160 --> 01:28:57,120 Speaker 2: what I mean, Like, I have no idea what he's 1513 01:28:57,160 --> 01:28:59,840 Speaker 2: upset about and whether or not it has merit. 1514 01:29:00,680 --> 01:29:04,400 Speaker 1: But it's just but it's just too much. See the game. 1515 01:29:04,600 --> 01:29:06,680 Speaker 1: You can't play the game that team you're on. 1516 01:29:07,040 --> 01:29:10,639 Speaker 3: You're upset though, right, right, right, right right, Like I said, 1517 01:29:10,640 --> 01:29:14,160 Speaker 3: it becomes less about them, and it's about you. 1518 01:29:15,160 --> 01:29:18,519 Speaker 2: Well, and none of you're not gonna be happy anywhere, right, 1519 01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:20,240 Speaker 2: none of them you've ever won? 1520 01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:21,880 Speaker 1: Right, You get to go play with your friends. 1521 01:29:21,920 --> 01:29:24,160 Speaker 3: You've been playing with friends for the last five years, 1522 01:29:24,680 --> 01:29:26,559 Speaker 3: just bouncing around, playing with your guys. 1523 01:29:28,640 --> 01:29:31,200 Speaker 2: I'm trying to think of a list of who James 1524 01:29:31,200 --> 01:29:34,160 Speaker 2: has played with, you know, high level Hope players. 1525 01:29:34,760 --> 01:29:38,479 Speaker 1: It was Ross and k D and OKC.

Yeah, after spending you know, 1625 01:35:47,680 --> 01:35:51,320 Speaker 3: twelve years and be getting beat up in Detroit with 1626 01:35:51,360 --> 01:35:53,920 Speaker 3: not a lot of success outside of a couple of years, 1627 01:35:54,880 --> 01:35:58,280 Speaker 3: and to come to LA and to win a Super Bowl, 1628 01:35:59,640 --> 01:36:03,920 Speaker 3: to me, that's the end of the book. You know, 1629 01:36:03,920 --> 01:36:12,360 Speaker 3: after thirteen years, you reached the pinnacle and so you 1630 01:36:12,360 --> 01:36:18,000 Speaker 3: you move on, right, got hurt last year? I'm sure 1631 01:36:18,640 --> 01:36:23,840 Speaker 3: it felt kind of cool, just chilling. You've accomplished what 1632 01:36:23,880 --> 01:36:28,720 Speaker 3: you've wanted to accomplish. You've changed the narrative of what 1633 01:36:28,800 --> 01:36:31,679 Speaker 3: you were as a player, and you won the ultimate 1634 01:36:32,880 --> 01:36:36,160 Speaker 3: prize as an NFL player. That's a championship the first 1635 01:36:36,200 --> 01:36:39,800 Speaker 3: season you stepped out of Detroit. What else do you 1636 01:36:39,920 --> 01:36:43,920 Speaker 3: have to prove or are you willing to prove? So 1637 01:36:44,320 --> 01:36:48,280 Speaker 3: whenever you start, he's not going for legacy or anything 1638 01:36:48,360 --> 01:36:58,040 Speaker 3: like that. I just to me feel it feels like, hmm, 1639 01:36:58,080 --> 01:37:03,280 Speaker 3: this will be a great time to be there, but 1640 01:37:03,479 --> 01:37:09,479 Speaker 3: not all there right off until the sunset. You got 1641 01:37:09,520 --> 01:37:17,320 Speaker 3: the trophy, brought a championship to LA and we're gonna 1642 01:37:17,400 --> 01:37:21,840 Speaker 3: usher in this new quarterback who is going to continue 1643 01:37:21,920 --> 01:37:26,840 Speaker 3: to be the face of LA football because I'm sure 1644 01:37:26,840 --> 01:37:30,559 Speaker 3: he's gonna have a spectacular year at SC. You come 1645 01:37:30,640 --> 01:37:34,679 Speaker 3: right on down the road playing so far, you don't 1646 01:37:34,680 --> 01:37:36,320 Speaker 3: even have to move out of the mansion you already 1647 01:37:36,360 --> 01:37:36,680 Speaker 3: live in. 1648 01:37:41,479 --> 01:37:43,759 Speaker 1: You know, he got some real estate already out here. 1649 01:37:44,040 --> 01:37:48,680 Speaker 1: Oh come on, man, let's go. I mean, whatever that is. 1650 01:37:49,400 --> 01:37:51,880 Speaker 2: Keishawan did when he was playing at USC, but it 1651 01:37:51,960 --> 01:37:53,799 Speaker 2: wasn't even close to the legal yet. 1652 01:37:53,960 --> 01:37:57,400 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? So yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever. 1653 01:37:57,439 --> 01:37:59,360 Speaker 2: You know what to ask you this This is completely 1654 01:37:59,400 --> 01:38:02,519 Speaker 2: off the map of your conversation. But what you're saying 1655 01:38:02,600 --> 01:38:04,800 Speaker 2: is making me think about something that I bet is 1656 01:38:04,800 --> 01:38:07,920 Speaker 2: super relevant to a lot of people right now. If 1657 01:38:07,960 --> 01:38:12,479 Speaker 2: you look at fantasy football rankings right now, whether it's 1658 01:38:12,520 --> 01:38:14,800 Speaker 2: the top five or the top ten, it's one or 1659 01:38:14,800 --> 01:38:23,280 Speaker 2: the other. Cooper Cup is pretty much widely considered wide 1660 01:38:23,320 --> 01:38:30,040 Speaker 2: receiver three or four. There's Jefferson, There's Chase and then 1661 01:38:30,080 --> 01:38:33,439 Speaker 2: it's kind of a Tyreek Hill Cooper Cup thing. Should 1662 01:38:33,439 --> 01:38:36,280 Speaker 2: people be worried about Cooper Cup? Because you really sound 1663 01:38:36,400 --> 01:38:38,840 Speaker 2: firm that you don't think Matthew Stafford's playing a lot 1664 01:38:38,840 --> 01:38:39,800 Speaker 2: of football this year. 1665 01:38:41,960 --> 01:38:46,840 Speaker 3: It just feels Yeah, I would, I would. I will 1666 01:38:46,920 --> 01:38:52,200 Speaker 3: be very cautious there, I'd be very cautious. 1667 01:38:52,520 --> 01:38:57,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. Wow, Yeah, that's a good point. 1668 01:38:59,120 --> 01:39:01,200 Speaker 2: Well, I just wonder, you know what I mean, because 1669 01:39:01,240 --> 01:39:01,400 Speaker 2: I do. 1670 01:39:02,240 --> 01:39:03,639 Speaker 1: I do feel like. 1671 01:39:05,080 --> 01:39:08,320 Speaker 2: Stetson Bennett is going to play NFL games this year. 1672 01:39:08,640 --> 01:39:13,800 Speaker 2: Let's put it that way. Maybe he'll be good. Maybe 1673 01:39:13,840 --> 01:39:17,960 Speaker 2: he'll be good. I don't know. I don't know, but 1674 01:39:18,160 --> 01:39:22,880 Speaker 2: it does not feel I mean, Matthew Stafford has been 1675 01:39:23,439 --> 01:39:29,160 Speaker 2: cloaked in maybe more silence and mystery over the last 1676 01:39:29,280 --> 01:39:32,720 Speaker 2: year and a half than any big time quarterback I've 1677 01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:38,320 Speaker 2: ever seen. They won a super Bowl and for an encore, 1678 01:39:39,040 --> 01:39:43,320 Speaker 2: he just kind of disappeared, and no one's really like 1679 01:39:43,400 --> 01:39:47,879 Speaker 2: they tried to ask some questions and then they stopped 1680 01:39:47,920 --> 01:39:51,280 Speaker 2: asking questions, and the questions did not continue into the 1681 01:39:51,320 --> 01:39:56,000 Speaker 2: off season, right, and the rumors were like you know this, 1682 01:39:56,160 --> 01:39:58,280 Speaker 2: there was the obvious injury, but then there was the 1683 01:39:58,360 --> 01:40:05,000 Speaker 2: not so obvious injuries. The rumors were career threatening back injuries. 1684 01:40:05,200 --> 01:40:10,000 Speaker 2: Things aren't right, shade. Yes, he wasn't playing that well 1685 01:40:10,040 --> 01:40:13,559 Speaker 2: when he was playing, if I remember correctly, he was 1686 01:40:13,640 --> 01:40:18,920 Speaker 2: leading the league in picks. Yeah, I mean when Yeah, 1687 01:40:18,960 --> 01:40:21,000 Speaker 2: it's hard to keep going. Man, after you've been in 1688 01:40:21,040 --> 01:40:22,840 Speaker 2: the league a long time, you get that monkey off 1689 01:40:22,880 --> 01:40:23,240 Speaker 2: your back. 1690 01:40:26,520 --> 01:40:32,599 Speaker 1: It is so it's off his back. He's a world champion. 1691 01:40:32,680 --> 01:40:36,080 Speaker 2: Well it it feels to me it's kind of like 1692 01:40:36,120 --> 01:40:39,760 Speaker 2: the individual version of why we always say no matter 1693 01:40:39,840 --> 01:40:43,040 Speaker 2: the sport, it's hard to repeat. You ask any athlete 1694 01:40:43,040 --> 01:40:45,599 Speaker 2: that's done it or come close. They seem to always 1695 01:40:45,600 --> 01:40:48,120 Speaker 2: say the same thing, like, it's just it's just different. 1696 01:40:48,640 --> 01:40:51,000 Speaker 1: Man, target on your back, still trying to get back 1697 01:40:51,080 --> 01:40:52,559 Speaker 1: to the NFC championship game. 1698 01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:55,479 Speaker 2: Look at you, man, You'll get there. Don't worry keep trying, 1699 01:40:56,400 --> 01:40:58,160 Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Though, Like, is it yours 1700 01:40:58,160 --> 01:40:59,080 Speaker 2: a target? On your back. 1701 01:40:59,120 --> 01:41:01,719 Speaker 1: There's expectation. Plus, as I've. 1702 01:41:01,560 --> 01:41:07,400 Speaker 2: Always seen it, you're human and once you've achieved the goal, 1703 01:41:08,439 --> 01:41:11,000 Speaker 2: you can't want it as much as the person who 1704 01:41:11,000 --> 01:41:15,639 Speaker 2: doesn't have it unless you have a screw loose. Michael Jordan, 1705 01:41:15,960 --> 01:41:20,000 Speaker 2: Tom Brady, you all got a screw loose, right, Like 1706 01:41:20,120 --> 01:41:23,360 Speaker 2: Tom had won eighteen Super Bowls and was playing when 1707 01:41:23,360 --> 01:41:25,120 Speaker 2: he was like forty four years old. 1708 01:41:25,360 --> 01:41:28,040 Speaker 1: Gotta get it, gotta get another My man. 1709 01:41:27,920 --> 01:41:32,320 Speaker 2: You have a screw loose. But if you don't have 1710 01:41:32,360 --> 01:41:34,280 Speaker 2: a screw loose, you're gonna relax. 1711 01:41:33,960 --> 01:41:37,240 Speaker 1: A little bit. So I think you're onto something there. 1712 01:41:38,760 --> 01:41:44,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I just I think marketing wise, the Rams 1713 01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:50,480 Speaker 3: would love to just drive to go pick up Caleb Williams. 1714 01:41:51,760 --> 01:41:54,000 Speaker 3: Don't have to sit in the jet, you just drive 1715 01:41:54,080 --> 01:41:59,760 Speaker 3: over to get him. That's you know, That's why you 1716 01:41:59,800 --> 01:42:00,760 Speaker 3: know picked those two. 1717 01:42:01,600 --> 01:42:05,200 Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, how about your eyes on the Cardinals? Well, 1718 01:42:05,240 --> 01:42:11,200 Speaker 2: I have my eyes on the Arizona Cardinals because Kyler 1719 01:42:11,280 --> 01:42:15,439 Speaker 2: Murray is not healthy. I don't think he's all that 1720 01:42:15,600 --> 01:42:18,479 Speaker 2: great to begin with. Even when he is, I don't 1721 01:42:18,520 --> 01:42:22,320 Speaker 2: think they did anything to respond to the injury in 1722 01:42:22,360 --> 01:42:27,519 Speaker 2: the offseason. Then they dumped DeAndre Hopkins. I know they 1723 01:42:27,680 --> 01:42:31,000 Speaker 2: just paid the man, So I'm not calling it a tank. 1724 01:42:31,680 --> 01:42:35,640 Speaker 2: JJ Watt retires like, I just don't know what it. 1725 01:42:36,080 --> 01:42:40,000 Speaker 2: What do the Cardinals have that's special? What position are 1726 01:42:40,040 --> 01:42:44,639 Speaker 2: they special? I don't see one. 1727 01:42:44,800 --> 01:42:50,280 Speaker 3: But I will say this, if Kyler does play, he's 1728 01:42:50,320 --> 01:42:55,240 Speaker 3: playing for something more than just you know, playing, He's 1729 01:42:55,320 --> 01:43:01,320 Speaker 3: playing for, you know, his career. So he's going to 1730 01:43:01,360 --> 01:43:05,760 Speaker 3: try to do everything he can to keep them from 1731 01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:09,759 Speaker 3: from faltering. So whenever you got somebody like that who 1732 01:43:10,240 --> 01:43:12,080 Speaker 3: plays the quarterback position. 1733 01:43:11,800 --> 01:43:13,320 Speaker 1: You can you can sneak a few in. 1734 01:43:14,520 --> 01:43:21,840 Speaker 10: Yeah, I hear you. Atlanta, Tampa Bay. Looking at those 1735 01:43:21,880 --> 01:43:26,840 Speaker 10: teams too, Yeah, that's a pretty good assessment. 1736 01:43:27,840 --> 01:43:36,000 Speaker 2: I'm looking at those teams too. Desmond Ritter does not 1737 01:43:36,240 --> 01:43:41,080 Speaker 2: look does not look like the answer. No, let's put 1738 01:43:41,120 --> 01:43:44,400 Speaker 2: it that way. No, it does not look like you know. 1739 01:43:44,520 --> 01:43:50,040 Speaker 1: I just it's that's a lot. 1740 01:43:50,280 --> 01:43:52,880 Speaker 3: It's a it's a lot for for young quarterbacks to 1741 01:43:52,920 --> 01:43:56,559 Speaker 3: come in and we're watching Trey Lance still not have it, 1742 01:43:56,760 --> 01:44:00,600 Speaker 3: you know, and so just to have that amount of 1743 01:44:00,640 --> 01:44:02,920 Speaker 3: pressure on you, you come in, you be the guy. 1744 01:44:04,280 --> 01:44:06,120 Speaker 1: It's uh, it's tough. 1745 01:44:06,200 --> 01:44:06,400 Speaker 2: Man. 1746 01:44:09,760 --> 01:44:13,479 Speaker 11: Well, speaking of pressure, we started, there's a oh, Yeah, 1747 01:44:13,320 --> 01:44:15,439 Speaker 11: there's a there's a ton of it right now on 1748 01:44:15,479 --> 01:44:18,200 Speaker 11: Steve de Seger because this is the last time that 1749 01:44:18,320 --> 01:44:20,200 Speaker 11: we're going to get to talk to him tonight. 1750 01:44:21,400 --> 01:44:23,720 Speaker 2: So I'm I'm putting a lot into this.

Now, yeah, exactly. 1794 01:46:31,720 --> 01:46:35,200 Speaker 8: Gosh, men from Mars had landed, they wouldn't know what 1795 01:46:35,320 --> 01:46:36,200 Speaker 8: is going on here. 1796 01:46:36,680 --> 01:46:39,000 Speaker 2: As you know, you'd be a good person, sorry, Steve, 1797 01:46:39,040 --> 01:46:40,240 Speaker 2: you'd be a good person to ask this. 1798 01:46:40,320 --> 01:46:41,840 Speaker 1: What took the Dodger so long? 1799 01:46:42,320 --> 01:46:45,360 Speaker 2: I sort of didn't even realize that his number wasn't retired. 1800 01:46:45,479 --> 01:46:48,000 Speaker 8: I think it's because, well, you got to make the 1801 01:46:48,040 --> 01:46:49,880 Speaker 8: Hall of Fame and then will It's kind of like 1802 01:46:49,920 --> 01:46:52,519 Speaker 8: the Lakers. Once Jamaal Wilkes made the Hall of Fame, 1803 01:46:52,560 --> 01:46:55,240 Speaker 8: they retired as Jersey. Once gil Goodrich made the Hall 1804 01:46:55,280 --> 01:46:58,799 Speaker 8: of Fame, they retired as Jersey. And Fernando just didn't 1805 01:46:58,800 --> 01:47:02,120 Speaker 8: have as long career of greatness. Now, the years with 1806 01:47:02,200 --> 01:47:05,559 Speaker 8: the Dodgers, it was about ten total, were very very good. 1807 01:47:05,640 --> 01:47:09,120 Speaker 8: But the whole career, you know how it really went 1808 01:47:09,160 --> 01:47:12,000 Speaker 8: off in the final few seasons and he hopped around teams. 1809 01:47:12,000 --> 01:47:14,800 Speaker 8: By the way, the attendance was still great for most 1810 01:47:14,840 --> 01:47:16,799 Speaker 8: of his career. When he would start to the point 1811 01:47:16,800 --> 01:47:19,320 Speaker 8: that even in those later contracts with other teams, he 1812 01:47:19,400 --> 01:47:21,400 Speaker 8: would write it in he would get a cut of 1813 01:47:21,439 --> 01:47:24,240 Speaker 8: the attendance, the ticket sales if it went over a 1814 01:47:24,240 --> 01:47:27,479 Speaker 8: certain amount on the nights he was pitching, because the 1815 01:47:27,520 --> 01:47:30,080 Speaker 8: early days with the Dodgers might goodness, they would be 1816 01:47:30,680 --> 01:47:33,080 Speaker 8: fans would just count the days and say we think 1817 01:47:33,120 --> 01:47:35,200 Speaker 8: he's going to pitch that day, and start to buy 1818 01:47:35,240 --> 01:47:37,560 Speaker 8: tickets and it would be a sellout. And there was 1819 01:47:37,600 --> 01:47:40,639 Speaker 8: a time when manager Tommy Lasorda switched the rotation. Turns 1820 01:47:40,640 --> 01:47:42,840 Speaker 8: out he's pitching a day or two later, and then 1821 01:47:42,880 --> 01:47:45,559 Speaker 8: that game sold out when he actually wound up pitching. 1822 01:47:46,120 --> 01:47:49,519 Speaker 8: It was just astounding the attention he was getting.

Today, 1831 01:48:16,439 --> 01:48:18,640 Speaker 8: Dodgers are first in the NLS, still eight and a 1832 01:48:18,680 --> 01:48:20,720 Speaker 8: half games up on the Giants, who homered in the 1833 01:48:20,760 --> 01:48:23,640 Speaker 8: tenth to beat Texas three to two.

In thinking 1943 01:54:54,240 --> 01:54:56,240 Speaker 2: that the forty nine ers are dying to get rid 1944 01:54:56,240 --> 01:55:00,600 Speaker 2: of Lance, and this site says there are execs around 1945 01:55:00,720 --> 01:55:04,040 Speaker 2: the league that believe the forty nine ers are doing 1946 01:55:04,080 --> 01:55:07,400 Speaker 2: more harm than good to the trade value of Trey 1947 01:55:07,480 --> 01:55:11,960 Speaker 2: Lance simply by playing him at all. In the preseason, 1948 01:55:12,040 --> 01:55:15,160 Speaker 2: many thought that Trey Lance was trending toward potentially netting 1949 01:55:15,200 --> 01:55:19,160 Speaker 2: a third round pick prior to today's game, but that 1950 01:55:19,480 --> 01:55:24,440 Speaker 2: value is now quickly dropping after those execs put their 1951 01:55:24,520 --> 01:55:28,240 Speaker 2: eyes on Lance. One exec they spoke to about the 1952 01:55:28,280 --> 01:55:32,040 Speaker 2: situation said it could quote trend in the direction of 1953 01:55:32,080 --> 01:55:34,520 Speaker 2: the forty nine ers having to attach a pick to 1954 01:55:34,640 --> 01:55:36,560 Speaker 2: Lance in order to. 1955 01:55:36,520 --> 01:55:39,160 Speaker 1: Get rid of him. 1956 01:55:39,600 --> 01:55:41,640 Speaker 2: When you think about that, because you said earlier the 1957 01:55:41,760 --> 01:55:43,840 Speaker 2: Niners don't really need to do anything. 1958 01:55:44,720 --> 01:55:47,200 Speaker 1: What did I say in terms of. 1959 01:55:48,280 --> 01:55:51,520 Speaker 2: You said, Yes, it's more than you want to spend 1960 01:55:51,520 --> 01:55:55,120 Speaker 2: on a third string quarterback, but it's also not an 1961 01:55:55,160 --> 01:55:58,600 Speaker 2: outrageous amount of money. They're spending so little on their 1962 01:55:58,680 --> 01:56:02,000 Speaker 2: quarterback room as a whole. Yeah, even if he ends 1963 01:56:02,080 --> 01:56:03,960 Speaker 2: up third string, so be it. 1964 01:56:03,800 --> 01:56:04,400 Speaker 1: So be it. 1965 01:56:05,520 --> 01:56:08,760 Speaker 3: They don't have to do anything in terms of trade value. 1966 01:56:08,840 --> 01:56:12,840 Speaker 3: There was no trade value. I do agree with. The 1967 01:56:12,840 --> 01:56:18,480 Speaker 3: more he plays the lower that value gets, which doesn't 1968 01:56:18,560 --> 01:56:23,600 Speaker 3: seem like it's possible. But good lord, anytime he's been 1969 01:56:23,640 --> 01:56:26,280 Speaker 3: on the football field, with the preseason, regular season, it 1970 01:56:26,360 --> 01:56:29,240 Speaker 3: has not looked good. Now one time have you said, oh, 1971 01:56:29,280 --> 01:56:34,040 Speaker 3: he's got it, and you know, putting him out there 1972 01:56:34,080 --> 01:56:35,920 Speaker 3: with a bad offensive line. 1973 01:56:36,520 --> 01:56:39,960 Speaker 1: I mean he was under siege. 1974 01:56:40,080 --> 01:56:42,280 Speaker 3: Even the first two passes of the game was supposed 1975 01:56:42,280 --> 01:56:43,280 Speaker 3: to be three step drops. 1976 01:56:43,520 --> 01:56:45,720 Speaker 1: You gotta get the ball off. He didn't throw the ball. 1977 01:56:46,920 --> 01:56:49,000 Speaker 3: You're gonna get sacked if you pump on the three 1978 01:56:49,400 --> 01:56:51,800 Speaker 3: step drop. Now it's not a slug. Oh, it's not 1979 01:56:51,840 --> 01:56:54,680 Speaker 3: a three, and then you take two more to make 1980 01:56:54,720 --> 01:56:57,880 Speaker 3: it a five. It's a three step drop. So if 1981 01:56:57,920 --> 01:56:59,400 Speaker 3: it's not there, you gotta throw the ball away. 1982 01:57:00,160 --> 01:57:00,640 Speaker 1: Mm hmm. 1983 01:57:01,640 --> 01:57:05,720 Speaker 3: There is no The offensive linemen are short setting attacking 1984 01:57:05,760 --> 01:57:08,440 Speaker 3: and in some instances cutting down the defensive line on 1985 01:57:08,480 --> 01:57:11,040 Speaker 3: a three step drop. If you don't, if you still 1986 01:57:11,040 --> 01:57:14,320 Speaker 3: have the ball after two seconds, yeah, you're on your own. 1987 01:57:14,560 --> 01:57:16,560 Speaker 3: So the first two plays of the game were three 1988 01:57:16,560 --> 01:57:21,640 Speaker 3: step drops. He didn't get rid of the ball. That's it. 1989 01:57:21,760 --> 01:57:27,080 Speaker 3: That's two sacks back to back. So I don't know 1990 01:57:27,080 --> 01:57:32,000 Speaker 3: where the disconnect is. If he's not confident and throwing 1991 01:57:32,040 --> 01:57:35,880 Speaker 3: the ball, any of those things. But you know, I mean, 1992 01:57:35,920 --> 01:57:40,600 Speaker 3: he's he can throw a pretty ball within a five 1993 01:57:40,720 --> 01:57:45,720 Speaker 3: yard six yards radius, but you gotta be accurate. You 1994 01:57:45,720 --> 01:57:47,720 Speaker 3: gotta be accurate down the field. You got to throw 1995 01:57:47,760 --> 01:57:51,840 Speaker 3: receivers open. Their timing has to be immaculate. And he 1996 01:57:51,960 --> 01:57:56,120 Speaker 3: hasn't gotten there yet. So who's giving up a third 1997 01:57:56,200 --> 01:57:59,240 Speaker 3: round draft pick for someone you have to continue to develop? 1998 01:58:00,000 --> 01:58:02,280 Speaker 1: All right? So let's take this now to the next step. 1999 01:58:02,280 --> 01:58:04,040 Speaker 2: And this is where and I know some of the 2000 01:58:04,080 --> 01:58:07,560 Speaker 2: listeners on our Bay Area affiliate here in ninety five 2001 01:58:07,560 --> 01:58:09,800 Speaker 2: to seven the game, some of them get angry just 2002 01:58:09,880 --> 01:58:12,839 Speaker 2: at the mere thought of this because of the capital 2003 01:58:12,920 --> 01:58:15,520 Speaker 2: that was used to get Trey Lance. But the forty 2004 01:58:15,600 --> 01:58:17,880 Speaker 2: nine ers are in such a window. They are in 2005 01:58:17,960 --> 01:58:22,240 Speaker 2: a win now window. There is no room for development. 2006 01:58:23,360 --> 01:58:27,360 Speaker 2: So I'm not saying they feel this way, but if 2007 01:58:27,360 --> 01:58:30,520 Speaker 2: it keeps looking like this, and let's say the forty 2008 01:58:30,600 --> 01:58:35,320 Speaker 2: nine ers get to the the real opinion behind closed doors, 2009 01:58:36,160 --> 01:58:39,760 Speaker 2: Kyle S. Janahan goes, he's the fourth best quarterback on 2010 01:58:39,800 --> 01:58:44,560 Speaker 2: our roster right now. If he gets there, don't they 2011 01:58:44,560 --> 01:58:47,320 Speaker 2: owe it to the team to keep the other three? 2012 01:58:50,120 --> 01:58:51,640 Speaker 1: Yeah? We didn't go cut Tree Lanz. 2013 01:58:52,760 --> 01:58:55,600 Speaker 2: Well, that's what I'm asking. I don't cut Trey Lanz. 2014 01:58:56,560 --> 01:58:58,800 Speaker 2: Well if someone else is better. 2015 01:59:00,440 --> 01:59:03,400 Speaker 3: I mean there's guys who get cut all over the 2016 01:59:03,480 --> 01:59:05,320 Speaker 3: league who are better than somebody who's on the roster. 2017 01:59:05,520 --> 01:59:08,280 Speaker 3: That's not necessarily how they build out a team. 2018 01:59:08,920 --> 01:59:11,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's quarterback, man, Yeah, quarterback. 2019 01:59:11,480 --> 01:59:14,400 Speaker 2: I understand quarterback for a team that always loses the quarterback, 2020 01:59:14,440 --> 01:59:14,640 Speaker 2: but it. 2021 01:59:15,160 --> 01:59:16,000 Speaker 1: Is what it is. 2022 01:59:16,040 --> 01:59:18,920 Speaker 3: You're not expecting the third string quarterback to ever play, 2023 01:59:19,160 --> 01:59:21,920 Speaker 3: so correct. This is not like, oh, well, should we 2024 01:59:22,040 --> 01:59:25,320 Speaker 3: or shouldn't we know, It's not one of those situations. 2025 01:59:27,200 --> 01:59:32,160 Speaker 3: It really isn't. So they're they're in a position where 2026 01:59:32,280 --> 01:59:36,280 Speaker 3: they're going to hold on to them and you know, 2027 01:59:36,920 --> 01:59:40,760 Speaker 3: hopefully with practice and all of that and and whatever 2028 01:59:40,800 --> 01:59:45,040 Speaker 3: they're doing, the development is just not there. So they 2029 01:59:45,120 --> 01:59:50,280 Speaker 3: do need him at some point this year. If you know, 2030 01:59:50,360 --> 01:59:54,440 Speaker 3: the impossible happens again, yeah, then they It is what 2031 01:59:54,560 --> 01:59:57,840 Speaker 3: it is. He's got to go out there and play. 2032 01:59:57,960 --> 01:59:59,320 Speaker 3: And I think they're okay with that. 2033 02:00:00,040 --> 02:00:02,360 Speaker 2: You know what happens next Saturday night, the night before 2034 02:00:02,560 --> 02:00:07,760 Speaker 2: we speak again, it's a Trey Lance versus Russell Wilson. 2035 02:00:08,360 --> 02:00:12,840 Speaker 1: Oh god, I didn't wait to talk to you about 2036 02:00:12,840 --> 02:00:14,480 Speaker 1: that one. I'll be next
