We're all dressed and ships. It's great. 123 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: People just bumping into each other because I can't get 124 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: close because the front of the ship is really guess what, 125 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: my cockpit won't open. Ah, that's that's a different. 126 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 3: That's a different. That's a that's a that's a ship 127 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 3: in the air, still a ship. 128 00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: So, uh, look, this gets us this. We got Mark 129 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: Stein coming up with more on this story, but this 130 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 1: gets us. Look, the Aaron Rodgers drama seemingly is over 131 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 1: and now it's about what we're gonna see on the 132 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: fielding Right, he signed one year, thirteen million. We found 133 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: it over the week, and he's gonna wear number eight. 134 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: Maybe he's married. Maybe he's not got that stealth picture 135 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: of whatever hematite ring or whatever that is he's wearing 136 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: that you know that you could buy like in uh 137 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: get the you know, anthropology, I don't know, you know, 138 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: but all the stuff with Aaron. 139 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 5: Rodgers, that is the most random stre that you can 140 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 5: possibly come up with. 141 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 1: So but you know what I'm saying, I have a yeah, 142 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 1: anthropology that a complete and till I get that ring in anthropology. 143 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: But look to take this Aaron Rodgers conversation in a 144 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: different direction, is that now that he's here in Pittsburgh 145 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 1: and we told you how the season's gonna likely go right, 146 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's gonna be Okay, Rogers will have his moments, but 147 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: in the end it won't be enough because Rogers is 148 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: is kind of washed and I don't know that he is. 149 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: He is locked in and cares about succeeding as a 150 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: quarterback like he has in his career. Waited so long 151 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: to sign you sold the last couple of years of 152 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: the Jets, Like is he still motivated or is he 153 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: still well, I'm still an NFL player and I get 154 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: to do a lot of things and be high profile 155 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: because I still play in the league. 156 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 3: Right, I'm not sold. That's him. 157 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: So that's how it's gonna go for Aaron Rodgers. It 158 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 1: is can be very much like Russell Wilson last year, 159 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: where it's gonna be boy, he had some moments, but 160 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: in the end, We'll be in December going are they 161 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: gonna turn to Will Howard? Is it Will Howard's turn? 162 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: Is it Mason Rudolph's turn? Is it Terry Bradshaw's turn 163 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,239 Speaker 1: to come back? So that's how it's gonna go for Rogers. 164 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: But the but a bigger thing is that if Rogers fails, 165 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: this is Mike Tomlin's last year with the Steelers. He 166 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: has fired or there's a mutual decision where he is 167 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 1: done because he has tried to build this team. Now, however, 168 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: how he's won. He and Omar Kahn since Ben Roethlisberger retired, 169 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: didn't look at the past couple of years of Roethlisberger. 170 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 1: He couldn't really throw. Everything was really short. We've talked 171 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,559 Speaker 1: about this and now they've gone into the next post 172 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: Roethlisberger era by trying to shop in the bargain bin 173 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: for quarterbacks. Oh, we get Justin Fields for nothing. We 174 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: can get Russell Wilson for nothing. We can get Aaron 175 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: Rodgers for nothing. This is not a good strategy. And 176 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin, this strategy of winning has been out of 177 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: style in the NFL. 178 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 3: For thirty years. I get that you don't. 179 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: Like the drama that you had to deal with with 180 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: Roethlisberger and Le'Veon Bell and Antonio Brown. But guess what, 181 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: you need a guy that can throw the football. You 182 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: can't go cheap in the most important position to expect 183 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 1: to win. This is a bad strategy, and Mike Tomlin's 184 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: gonna go down with go down with the strategy of 185 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 1: These were the guys that I picked at the end 186 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: in These are the guys we picked at the end 187 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh. And I'm good because if they don't win 188 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: this year, they're done. The Mike Tomlin experience is over 189 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: and it's time to move on someplace else with a 190 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: more modern NFL coach that gets how it is to 191 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: build a team in twenty twenty five, because clearly Mike 192 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: Tomlin all offensively doesn't. I still want to run the 193 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: football a ton, I want to play great defense, want 194 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: the quarterback to be necessary. Evil. I'm sorry you saw 195 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: what happened. Bill Belichick tried to build a team that 196 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 1: went back in time thirty years and look where he 197 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: is now, barely holding on at North Carolina team. He 198 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: hasn't coached a game four yet the same thing is 199 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: going to be Doe with Tomlin. If this Aaron Rodgers 200 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 1: thing doesn't work, Mike Tomlin is going to be out now. 201 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: He'll get a new job someplace else. Maybe he waits 202 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,199 Speaker 1: a year because Tomlin's still a young guy, still a 203 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: very successful guy. But Pittsburgh, this is it. And it 204 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 1: baffles me that this is how Mike Tomlin has hitched 205 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: his wagon to the last three quarterbacks, knowing that at 206 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: some point Pittsburgh's going to run out of patience, that 207 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 1: it's Fields and Wilson and Rogers. Where the guys that 208 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: he says, Yep, here's one casting my lot in with 209 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: to potentially take the Steelers out and have them win 210 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 1: when it's going to be another year the same old stuff. 211 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: They'll compete for a while, but they're not going to 212 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: have enough at the end of the year and it's 213 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: going to be dude, you really thought you were going 214 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: to win with these guys. We need somebody new that 215 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: gets offense, that gets what it's like to build a 216 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: team in twenty twenty five. 217 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 3: This is it. 218 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: Tomlin's done. If this doesn't work. 219 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 5: Yeah, we talked a lot about Arthur Smith's offense in 220 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 5: Pittsburgh and going back to Tennessee, and trying to determine 221 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 5: what the next iteration would be, and with Justin Fields, 222 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 5: it looked like it at a place, but they didn't 223 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 5: want to meet whatever that price was, or he didn't 224 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 5: want to come back, whatever. 225 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 3: Story you want to believe. 226 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 5: I believe the latter more than the former of all right, 227 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 5: you did me wrong, I'm gonna go find my new 228 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,199 Speaker 5: opportunities somewhere else. The fact that it's the Jets, all right, 229 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 5: We'll watch how that unfolds for you and live and 230 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 5: die with you with each snap there. But the Aaron 231 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 5: Rodgers part of it, again owing to your Jets, is 232 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 5: year one was an incomplete You got four snaps last year. 233 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 5: Depends what you want to believe in terms of what 234 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 5: that second half was. Was it good? The overall numbers say, okay, 235 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 5: there's some positive. 236 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 3: Things you can hand handing on it, and. 237 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 5: Maybe you say, well, we get a piece of a 238 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 5: guy that for one year is motivated. He's in a 239 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 5: big spot, big marquee team, worldwide, global interest to all 240 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 5: of that kind of stuff, and still has some throws 241 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 5: left in his arm. Now do I think they need 242 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 5: to go out and get another wide receiver? I don't 243 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 5: know how good Roman Wilson is, I don't know. I 244 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 5: got DK Metcalf and I got pat Freyermouth. Jalen Warren's 245 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 5: a pretty good running back. And then we'll figure out 246 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 5: what you have beyond that. But the wide receiving court 247 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 5: could probably use it up a little more of an upgrade. 248 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 5: So I'm keeping an eye on all these disgruntled wide 249 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 5: receivers because they have an awful lot of draft selections 250 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 5: at their disposal for twenty twenty six. Right, and that's 251 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 5: where we go to there. I wanted to read a 252 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 5: tweet because I thought this was funny, would make you laugh. 253 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 5: This is from Jerry Dulac there in Pittsburgh Post Gazette 254 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 5: getting ready to cover the US Open this week. But 255 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 5: this is the gem he gave us. 256 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 3: Quote. Give the Steelers credit. 257 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 5: They have signed two starting quarterbacks who are future Hall 258 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 5: of Famers for less than twenty million dollars total. Aim 259 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 5: another organization to pull that off off. I can't all 260 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 5: right talking about the contract because I saw a bunch 261 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,439 Speaker 5: of the Wow, they really overpaid in June. Normally it's 262 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 5: bargain basement. This deal was done. We were talking about 263 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 5: this for two months. It's just now they inked it. 264 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 5: It's been sitting there with all the incentives waiting to 265 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 5: be signed, and now he comes in and we see 266 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 5: how quickly they can get up to speed. Yeah, it's 267 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 5: a big bet for Tomlin. I just wonder if he 268 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 5: doesn't have the lifetime pass that with Steelers' ownership that 269 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 5: at no point that they'll ever say, see ye. 270 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: There's there's a different sort of standard. They definitely wait 271 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: a long time before they move on from coaches. But 272 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: they're at the end. They're at the end of that run. 273 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 3: Now there never had a losing They're at. 274 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 1: The end of that run. There's different standards, and clearly 275 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: it's not getting better. They haven't found the quarterback they need. 276 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: They need an offensive mind. This is where the NFL 277 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: le did an offensive mind and coach him to be 278 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: in the in the in the twenty twenties. 279 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,839 Speaker 3: Can we get one of the the roonies to stand 280 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 3: up and say, hey, January. 281 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 1: Matters, trust me, this doesn't. That's it. Mike Tommin will 282 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: be out in Pittsburgh after this season.
