00:01:46,508 --> 00:01:47,268
Speaker 3: That's what it's called.

Speaker 10: Go.

40
00:01:47,868 --> 00:01:50,268
Speaker 2: We're gonna we're gonna look at some teams and apparently

41
00:01:50,268 --> 00:01:53,548
Speaker 2: we are just gonna decide their fate this early in

42
00:01:53,588 --> 00:01:55,668
Speaker 2: the off season, and that's what we do when it's May,

43
00:01:55,708 --> 00:01:57,948
Speaker 2: whatever day it is, Ian Rappid Work, Good morning to you.

44
00:01:58,028 --> 00:02:00,308
Speaker 2: There's big news out of New Orleans over the weekend.

45
00:02:00,908 --> 00:02:01,948
Speaker 3: I'm sure they would.

46
00:02:01,708 --> 00:02:04,388
Speaker 2: Have liked to know Derek Carr's decision before the draft,

47
00:02:04,468 --> 00:02:07,068
Speaker 2: but sometimes life pans out this way and they had

48
00:02:07,108 --> 00:02:09,668
Speaker 2: to draft accordingly with what they knew at the time.

49
00:02:09,788 --> 00:02:11,908
Speaker 2: What did we hear and how did the Saints move forward?

50
00:02:12,268 --> 00:02:15,148
Speaker 11: Well, let's focus in on the Saints. Right before the

51
00:02:15,268 --> 00:02:17,508
Speaker 11: NFL Draft, because my understanding is the Saints really did

52
00:02:17,628 --> 00:02:20,388
Speaker 11: know that it was at least a possibility, maybe even

53
00:02:20,388 --> 00:02:23,148
Speaker 11: a high possibility, that Derek Carr would not be the

54
00:02:23,228 --> 00:02:27,148
Speaker 11: quarterback taking a snap as they began the twenty five season.

55
00:02:27,228 --> 00:02:29,108
Speaker 11: At that point when they made the draft pick, when

56
00:02:29,108 --> 00:02:31,388
Speaker 11: they eventually in the first round took a couple of

57
00:02:31,428 --> 00:02:33,748
Speaker 11: banks and then Tyler Shook in the second round of

58
00:02:33,748 --> 00:02:37,908
Speaker 11: potential future franchise quarterback. There they knew that Derek carrd

59
00:02:37,948 --> 00:02:39,868
Speaker 11: a significant shoulder injury. They knew that it was a

60
00:02:39,948 --> 00:02:42,868
Speaker 11: very real possibility they would not play this season. They

61
00:02:42,948 --> 00:02:46,588
Speaker 11: knew he was considering surgery and that if surgery was necessary,

62
00:02:46,868 --> 00:02:47,948
Speaker 11: he wouldn't play at all.

63
00:02:48,028 --> 00:02:49,108
Speaker 3: They didn't have a firm.

64
00:02:48,908 --> 00:02:52,468
Speaker 11: And final decision, but they planned accordingly, and that all

65
00:02:52,508 --> 00:02:55,228
Speaker 11: played out over the course of this weekend. Derek Carr,

66
00:02:55,588 --> 00:02:59,548
Speaker 11: in accordance with the Saints, officially announced his retirement. Thanked

67
00:02:59,548 --> 00:03:04,748
Speaker 11: everyone involved, said some nice comments and statements about how

68
00:03:04,828 --> 00:03:07,388
Speaker 11: his career was and all the people supported.

69
00:03:06,988 --> 00:03:09,468
Speaker 8: Him, and then essentially moved on. The reason he moved on.

70
00:03:09,948 --> 00:03:12,468
Speaker 11: Tried to injection in his shoulder, tried to rehab it

71
00:03:12,508 --> 00:03:14,508
Speaker 11: would not get him to be one hundred percent knew

72
00:03:14,508 --> 00:03:16,388
Speaker 11: he needed surgery that would have knocked him out for

73
00:03:16,428 --> 00:03:17,348
Speaker 11: the season.

74
00:03:17,268 --> 00:03:18,588
Speaker 8: So he bows out.

75
00:03:18,748 --> 00:03:21,668
Speaker 11: He collects ten million dollars in the roster bonus that

76
00:03:21,668 --> 00:03:25,348
Speaker 11: he earned early this offseason and gives back thirty million

77
00:03:25,388 --> 00:03:28,868
Speaker 11: dollars that was previously guaranteed to him. Gives back thirty

78
00:03:28,868 --> 00:03:32,668
Speaker 11: million dollars to have these Saints move on. Now, that

79
00:03:32,708 --> 00:03:35,468
Speaker 11: doesn't really help the Saints cap this year, but next

80
00:03:35,548 --> 00:03:38,428
Speaker 11: year it comes off the cap. That is good news

81
00:03:38,628 --> 00:03:40,948
Speaker 11: for Saints and the people online who figure out how

82
00:03:41,028 --> 00:03:42,988
Speaker 11: far behind they are salary cap wise.

83
00:03:43,228 --> 00:03:44,388
Speaker 8: Meanwhile, we still.

84
00:03:44,188 --> 00:03:46,868
Speaker 11: Do not have a decision on Aaron Rodgers and the

85
00:03:46,948 --> 00:03:50,308
Speaker 11: Pittsburgh Steelers. It seems his choices retire, which he said

86
00:03:50,348 --> 00:03:53,068
Speaker 11: recently on the Pat mcavvie Show is a possibility, or

87
00:03:53,148 --> 00:03:56,868
Speaker 11: join the Steelers. The Steelers are hoping that he joins him.

88
00:03:56,868 --> 00:03:59,108
Speaker 11: The Steelers are believing that he is going to be

89
00:03:59,148 --> 00:03:59,868
Speaker 11: their quarterback.

90
00:04:00,108 --> 00:04:01,828
Speaker 3: They are planning for him to be their.

91
00:04:01,788 --> 00:04:05,228
Speaker 11: Quarterback, but until they get a firm more from Rogers,

92
00:04:05,508 --> 00:04:08,508
Speaker 11: it is all still up in the air. OTA's are coming,

93
00:04:08,548 --> 00:04:11,668
Speaker 11: mandatory mini camp is coming, and Rodgers still going through

94
00:04:11,708 --> 00:04:12,388
Speaker 11: his process.

95
00:04:12,868 --> 00:04:14,948
Speaker 3: So now we still wait rap Sheet.

96
00:04:14,988 --> 00:04:17,628
Speaker 2: You're telling me that the only two options, despite the

97
00:04:17,668 --> 00:04:21,068
Speaker 2: Saints now needing a veteran quarterback perhaps is to retire

98
00:04:21,188 --> 00:04:23,068
Speaker 2: or play with the Steelers. We're still looking at those

99
00:04:23,108 --> 00:04:24,628
Speaker 2: are the only two options for Rogers.

100
00:04:25,228 --> 00:04:25,468
Speaker 5: Yeah.

101
00:04:25,508 --> 00:04:28,188
Speaker 11: Now, if Rogers keeps waiting, you might get to a

102
00:04:28,268 --> 00:04:30,348
Speaker 11: quarterback injury and training camp or a team that's not

103
00:04:30,388 --> 00:04:33,108
Speaker 11: happy with their quarterback and training camp. But as of

104
00:04:33,228 --> 00:04:35,828
Speaker 11: right now, those are the only two options for Aaron.

105
00:04:35,668 --> 00:04:38,628
Speaker 2: Rodge Okay, good to know we're looking at the future

106
00:04:38,668 --> 00:04:41,148
Speaker 2: of that quarterback and everybody else. Rap sheet, Thanks so much.

107
00:04:41,268 --> 00:04:43,388
Speaker 2: Let's play a game. It's quotes on quotes on quotes.

108
00:04:43,388 --> 00:04:44,988
Speaker 2: We're gonna hear from a guy. We're gonna talk about

109
00:04:44,988 --> 00:04:48,148
Speaker 2: his team. First example we have is Pittsburgh DM Omar

110
00:04:48,228 --> 00:04:51,268
Speaker 2: Cohn and head coach Mike Tomlin on trading wide receiver

111
00:04:51,388 --> 00:04:53,068
Speaker 2: George Pickens to Dallas.

112
00:04:53,668 --> 00:04:55,908
Speaker 1: No, we just kind of talked about it, you know,

113
00:04:56,308 --> 00:04:59,628
Speaker 1: lots of serious conversation on his conversations, and we just

114
00:05:00,028 --> 00:05:03,148
Speaker 1: felt that a fresh star for both sides was.

115
00:05:03,508 --> 00:05:06,548
Speaker 6: The right thing, Neston timely for all parties involved. Really,

116
00:05:06,788 --> 00:05:09,668
Speaker 6: I'm just focused on the opportunity that is this weekend.

117
00:05:09,428 --> 00:05:13,468
Speaker 2: For the rookies, Neston timely for all parties involved. Will Blackman,

118
00:05:13,548 --> 00:05:15,388
Speaker 2: what do you make of the Steelers right now with

119
00:05:15,468 --> 00:05:19,148
Speaker 2: the decision they made to trade George Pickens, but also

120
00:05:19,348 --> 00:05:21,348
Speaker 2: just what they have in their team and their roster.

121
00:05:21,548 --> 00:05:23,188
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I'm gonna go back to their draft.

122
00:05:23,188 --> 00:05:25,068
Speaker 1: I think they had a solid draft. I think they

123
00:05:25,148 --> 00:05:28,588
Speaker 1: drafted a bunch of guys that can contribute immediately. I

124
00:05:28,628 --> 00:05:31,108
Speaker 1: mean based on right now, Well Howard might have a

125
00:05:31,188 --> 00:05:33,668
Speaker 1: chance right to contribute, and I don't. I don't think

126
00:05:33,668 --> 00:05:36,868
Speaker 1: they're quite finished via free agency. Even though they trade away,

127
00:05:36,948 --> 00:05:39,188
Speaker 1: you know, big time receiver in Pickins, I think they

128
00:05:39,228 --> 00:05:41,788
Speaker 1: still can find another one. They still need a receiver too.

129
00:05:41,908 --> 00:05:44,588
Speaker 1: They have you know, Calvin Austin on there, they have

130
00:05:44,748 --> 00:05:47,108
Speaker 1: Roman wolveson and these are these are small guys. You know,

131
00:05:47,188 --> 00:05:49,428
Speaker 1: obviously they get they get Robert Woods as well too,

132
00:05:49,468 --> 00:05:52,148
Speaker 1: but they still need another big time playmaker. And I

133
00:05:52,188 --> 00:05:54,468
Speaker 1: think there's a chance there. And obviously, you know, we

134
00:05:54,548 --> 00:05:56,668
Speaker 1: just talked about Aaron being a possibility. So yeah, I

135
00:05:56,708 --> 00:05:59,628
Speaker 1: don't think they're finished. I like what's going on so

136
00:05:59,748 --> 00:06:01,308
Speaker 1: far just in terms of building the roster.

137
00:06:01,548 --> 00:06:04,988
Speaker 3: Yeah, what do you got, Mitch, that's a good question.

138
00:06:06,108 --> 00:06:07,948
Speaker 5: That's a good question. Here's what I got for the Steelers.

139
00:06:07,988 --> 00:06:11,108
Speaker 5: I think the Steelers are in a unique position because

140
00:06:11,108 --> 00:06:12,708
Speaker 5: I think the sense of urgency is high. You could

141
00:06:12,708 --> 00:06:15,268
Speaker 5: say that every year and every off season about Pittsburgh.

142
00:06:15,468 --> 00:06:18,868
Speaker 5: But I remember signing last year with the Jags. It

143
00:06:18,908 --> 00:06:20,468
Speaker 5: was between the Jags and Steelers, and I went to

144
00:06:20,508 --> 00:06:22,548
Speaker 5: visit Mike Tomlin. I was really I was praying to God,

145
00:06:22,588 --> 00:06:25,188
Speaker 5: I was gonna hate it because I just wanted to

146
00:06:25,228 --> 00:06:27,468
Speaker 5: go somewhere to warmer. And I show up and I

147
00:06:27,548 --> 00:06:29,468
Speaker 5: call my wife after the meeting. I'm like, you're gonna

148
00:06:29,508 --> 00:06:32,388
Speaker 5: hate this. But I really enjoyed Pittsburgh. It's full of

149
00:06:32,428 --> 00:06:35,868
Speaker 5: awesome people, good folks. I mean, the defense is insane.

150
00:06:36,308 --> 00:06:40,028
Speaker 5: This the staff, everything, the supports staff is awesome. When

151
00:06:40,028 --> 00:06:42,028
Speaker 5: it came down to it, I said, listen to Jacksonville's

152
00:06:42,068 --> 00:06:45,348
Speaker 5: got Trevor Warres. They got this quarterback. And and actually

153
00:06:45,348 --> 00:06:47,388
Speaker 5: the day I was there, Russell Wilson was visiting too,

154
00:06:47,428 --> 00:06:49,028
Speaker 5: So all these cameras were shown up and it was like,

155
00:06:49,228 --> 00:06:53,468
Speaker 5: I thought, they're for me, knowing Jack you on.

156
00:06:53,428 --> 00:06:56,268
Speaker 2: Your commercial flight like they did, Russell from Newark into Pittsborick.

157
00:06:56,308 --> 00:06:58,508
Speaker 5: They had no idea where I was. But what they

158
00:06:58,588 --> 00:07:01,308
Speaker 5: did say was, you know, we almost beat you guys

159
00:07:01,348 --> 00:07:03,628
Speaker 5: last year in the playoffs the Bills with what we have,

160
00:07:03,748 --> 00:07:06,908
Speaker 5: and now we're about to bring Russell on. I think,

161
00:07:06,948 --> 00:07:09,908
Speaker 5: and especially coming out to the Pickett thing, when you

162
00:07:09,988 --> 00:07:13,308
Speaker 5: have those answers, those really short, abrupt answers like the

163
00:07:13,388 --> 00:07:14,908
Speaker 5: GM and the head coach did, it was time for

164
00:07:14,948 --> 00:07:17,028
Speaker 5: both parties to go. Yeah, it was time for the

165
00:07:17,068 --> 00:07:21,188
Speaker 5: split up. But I think, like any season, Pittsburgh is,

166
00:07:21,428 --> 00:07:23,908
Speaker 5: they got it. I think that they're on the CUSP.

167
00:07:23,948 --> 00:07:24,148
Speaker 4: Dude.

168
00:07:24,788 --> 00:07:27,068
Speaker 9: Yeah, you know what, No matter what, they're always gonna

169
00:07:27,068 --> 00:07:29,268
Speaker 9: be okay, right. I mean, it's just Mike Tomlin being

170
00:07:29,308 --> 00:07:30,868
Speaker 9: there for so long, They're always going to be a

171
00:07:30,908 --> 00:07:32,588
Speaker 9: good team. But I think it's time for them to

172
00:07:32,628 --> 00:07:34,508
Speaker 9: take this step up, like you have to go out

173
00:07:34,548 --> 00:07:36,988
Speaker 9: and be that above average playoff team.

174
00:07:37,308 --> 00:07:39,788
Speaker 8: And you see them make a move with dk Metcalptain

175
00:07:39,788 --> 00:07:40,188
Speaker 8: and the all.

176
00:07:40,108 --> 00:07:43,428
Speaker 9: Season, you feel good, you feel high spirited about everybody's excited. Well,

177
00:07:43,428 --> 00:07:45,108
Speaker 9: who's gonna get in the ball? And I think that's

178
00:07:45,148 --> 00:07:47,428
Speaker 9: what it really comes down to. And we all know,

179
00:07:47,468 --> 00:07:49,708
Speaker 9: if you don't have a standout quarterback in the National

180
00:07:49,708 --> 00:07:52,308
Speaker 9: Football league. Now, it is very hard to win a championship,

181
00:07:52,868 --> 00:07:54,748
Speaker 9: and I think just some of those rumblings of Tomlin,

182
00:07:54,868 --> 00:07:57,308
Speaker 9: you know, getting over that hunt finally, you know, being

183
00:07:57,388 --> 00:08:00,308
Speaker 9: above average team, not just the mediocre team. So they

184
00:08:00,388 --> 00:08:03,308
Speaker 9: got to figure out that quarterback situation. You get all

185
00:08:03,348 --> 00:08:06,388
Speaker 9: excited about making these and you're right, well, I think

186
00:08:06,428 --> 00:08:08,468
Speaker 9: they had a really really good offseason. I think they

187
00:08:08,508 --> 00:08:11,508
Speaker 9: had a good draft. But you just I don't feel comfort.

188
00:08:11,548 --> 00:08:13,388
Speaker 9: You know, if you're a teammate there, you don't feel

189
00:08:13,428 --> 00:08:16,388
Speaker 9: confident and comfortable going to this season not knowing what's.

190
00:08:16,188 --> 00:08:16,748
Speaker 8: Going to happen.

191
00:08:17,108 --> 00:08:19,028
Speaker 9: You got to have a quarterback in the National Football

192
00:08:19,068 --> 00:08:20,628
Speaker 9: League that to take that next step.

193
00:08:21,068 --> 00:08:22,708
Speaker 3: Who are the major quarterbacks you were around here?

194
00:08:22,788 --> 00:08:25,028
Speaker 9: I was just gonna think, Yeah, I mean so just

195
00:08:25,068 --> 00:08:27,108
Speaker 9: in a playoff path to get to the championship.

196
00:08:27,268 --> 00:08:29,268
Speaker 8: That question always asked why you guys didn't win the

197
00:08:29,268 --> 00:08:30,948
Speaker 8: Super Bowl? Why did you get that? Well, you got

198
00:08:30,988 --> 00:08:32,068
Speaker 8: to go through Ben Roethlisberger.

199
00:08:32,148 --> 00:08:33,268
Speaker 3: First, you got to go through them.

200
00:08:33,308 --> 00:08:34,508
Speaker 8: You got to go through them, You got to go.

201
00:08:34,428 --> 00:08:36,708
Speaker 9: Through Payton Manny oh and but then by the way,

202
00:08:36,708 --> 00:08:38,548
Speaker 9: you got to get to the final Boston Tom Brady.

203
00:08:38,588 --> 00:08:41,348
Speaker 9: So now you the final Boston Tom Brady. So now

204
00:08:41,388 --> 00:08:43,428
Speaker 9: when you start looking at that path to get there,

205
00:08:43,588 --> 00:08:44,908
Speaker 9: it's very similar nowadays.

206
00:08:44,948 --> 00:08:46,068
Speaker 8: You got to go through the Joe Burrows.

207
00:08:46,068 --> 00:08:48,428
Speaker 9: You got to go through you know, the Patch Mahomes

208
00:08:48,428 --> 00:08:51,548
Speaker 9: and and keep going. So Josh Allen's there's so many

209
00:08:51,628 --> 00:08:53,788
Speaker 9: quarterbacks you got to go through in order to get there.

210
00:08:53,828 --> 00:08:55,868
Speaker 9: And I just don't know if the Steelers have enough

211
00:08:55,908 --> 00:08:58,148
Speaker 9: to get over that hump what they're sitting with right now.

212
00:08:58,228 --> 00:09:02,028
Speaker 2: I've never felt anything hit more impactfully than when Mitch

213
00:09:02,148 --> 00:09:05,108
Speaker 2: just said impossible under his breath, when you go, it's

214
00:09:05,108 --> 00:09:06,548
Speaker 2: hard to win a super Bowl or get to the

215
00:09:06,548 --> 00:09:08,588
Speaker 2: playoffs without a really good quarterback, right, but.

216
00:09:08,588 --> 00:09:10,348
Speaker 6: You had you got someone that gave you a chance.

217
00:09:10,428 --> 00:09:12,668
Speaker 2: Yeah, point yeah, yep, exactly all right.

218
00:09:13,068 --> 00:09:14,428
Speaker 3: The Raiders are looking for a chance.

219
00:09:14,508 --> 00:09:17,788
Speaker 2: They drafted a running back and Ashton Gents and he's

220
00:09:17,828 --> 00:09:20,708
Speaker 2: a fire running back out of Boise State. But what

221
00:09:20,748 --> 00:09:22,828
Speaker 2: will he do in Las Vegas? He spoke with the

222
00:09:22,828 --> 00:09:24,948
Speaker 2: media following his first mini camp practice.

223
00:09:25,028 --> 00:09:26,708
Speaker 4: So what are you hoping to get from these next

224
00:09:26,708 --> 00:09:28,308
Speaker 4: couple of days out here at recommendati?

225
00:09:28,868 --> 00:09:32,508
Speaker 12: Uh, just build relationships with everybody around the building, get

226
00:09:32,508 --> 00:09:35,068
Speaker 12: to know everyone. Let them know Whaim is a person.

227
00:09:35,668 --> 00:09:38,668
Speaker 12: You know, get better, learn to playbook and you know,

228
00:09:39,068 --> 00:09:41,908
Speaker 12: just you know, embrace the new city and new place

229
00:09:42,188 --> 00:09:44,828
Speaker 12: or new brotherhood. You know, we're all welcome each other,

230
00:09:45,028 --> 00:09:47,708
Speaker 12: getting to know each other. You know, Pete Carroll was

231
00:09:47,708 --> 00:09:50,268
Speaker 12: saying it yesterday. We all got to be connected and

232
00:09:50,308 --> 00:09:52,668
Speaker 12: build relationships, and you know that's going to make us

233
00:09:52,668 --> 00:09:53,988
Speaker 12: a better team and teammates.

234
00:09:54,508 --> 00:09:57,708
Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of new faces, familiar names, but all

235
00:09:57,788 --> 00:10:00,068
Speaker 2: new to the Las Vegas Raiders. You got Pete Carroll,

236
00:10:00,108 --> 00:10:02,588
Speaker 2: you got Ashton Genty in the backfield. What are our

237
00:10:02,668 --> 00:10:05,948
Speaker 2: realistic expectations for the Raiders this next season?

238
00:10:05,988 --> 00:10:08,068
Speaker 1: Well, I look at two teams in the past. I

239
00:10:08,068 --> 00:10:10,748
Speaker 1: look at the twenty ten Seahawks. You know, when Pete

240
00:10:10,788 --> 00:10:14,148
Speaker 1: Carrafers took over, they had Matt Ausebek who was thirty

241
00:10:14,148 --> 00:10:16,628
Speaker 1: five years old. Gino is gonna be thirty five this year.

242
00:10:16,828 --> 00:10:19,188
Speaker 1: They made a ton of transactions and they end up

243
00:10:19,188 --> 00:10:21,828
Speaker 1: creating a culture to make it extremely competitive. And I

244
00:10:21,828 --> 00:10:23,308
Speaker 1: feel like that's what they're gonna be able to do here.

245
00:10:23,348 --> 00:10:24,988
Speaker 1: I mean, they got there, they got to the playoffs

246
00:10:24,988 --> 00:10:27,148
Speaker 1: at seven and nine. That's when the whole Beast quake happened.

247
00:10:27,308 --> 00:10:30,228
Speaker 1: And I also look at the twenty twenty two Lions, again,

248
00:10:30,708 --> 00:10:33,668
Speaker 1: very very competitive team, a ton of one possession I

249
00:10:33,668 --> 00:10:36,188
Speaker 1: think nine one possession losses. So I don't think they're

250
00:10:36,188 --> 00:10:38,148
Speaker 1: going to make a huge splash, but I think they're

251
00:10:38,148 --> 00:10:40,668
Speaker 1: going to be extremely competitive. Knowing the type of culture

252
00:10:40,668 --> 00:10:41,988
Speaker 1: of Pete Carroll Bilts.

253
00:10:42,028 --> 00:10:44,948
Speaker 5: It's the Pete Carroll culture. Just like you said, the

254
00:10:44,988 --> 00:10:46,948
Speaker 5: only thing that I see standing in their way is

255
00:10:46,948 --> 00:10:48,748
Speaker 5: a tough division that's just coming.

256
00:10:49,628 --> 00:10:51,068
Speaker 3: Listen, It's just a small thing.

257
00:10:51,148 --> 00:10:52,988
Speaker 5: It's just a little thing over in Kansas City that

258
00:10:53,068 --> 00:10:55,988
Speaker 5: got going on. I mean, it's it was extremely fun

259
00:10:55,988 --> 00:10:58,708
Speaker 5: to watch the Broncos. It was a celebration of football,

260
00:10:58,748 --> 00:11:00,748
Speaker 5: especially on the defensive line to watch those guys hot.

261
00:11:00,788 --> 00:11:02,708
Speaker 5: But then you got bottle next year guy. I mean,

262
00:11:02,748 --> 00:11:05,548
Speaker 5: it's just that's the only thing impeding I think the

263
00:11:05,588 --> 00:11:08,668
Speaker 5: playoff run or getting in the playoffs. Besides that, it

264
00:11:08,668 --> 00:11:10,428
Speaker 5: wouldn't surprise me if they get in the playoffs or

265
00:11:10,428 --> 00:11:11,308
Speaker 5: even make a push for again.

266
00:11:11,308 --> 00:11:11,908
Speaker 3: After Wow.

267
00:11:12,068 --> 00:11:13,708
Speaker 9: Yeah, Mitchell, I'm I'm dive in a little bit further

268
00:11:13,748 --> 00:11:16,508
Speaker 9: when you're talking about that division in general, because you know,

269
00:11:16,628 --> 00:11:19,628
Speaker 9: now you're talking about a stacked and loaded quarterback in

270
00:11:19,908 --> 00:11:22,468
Speaker 9: that division, and you got Geno Smith. And I'm not

271
00:11:22,508 --> 00:11:24,268
Speaker 9: taking shots at Geno Smith at all, but gent you

272
00:11:24,348 --> 00:11:25,668
Speaker 9: do give them a chance. And you got a great

273
00:11:25,748 --> 00:11:28,148
Speaker 9: running back back there. You got a safety safetyple like

274
00:11:28,228 --> 00:11:30,588
Speaker 9: in a safety net, so they do have that in place.

275
00:11:30,948 --> 00:11:32,788
Speaker 9: But man, you're going against Justin Herbert, You're going to

276
00:11:32,948 --> 00:11:35,668
Speaker 9: Pat Patrick, Mahomes and this guy, this kid, Vote Nicks.

277
00:11:35,668 --> 00:11:38,068
Speaker 9: I mean, you know, being in the division and watching

278
00:11:38,148 --> 00:11:40,348
Speaker 9: him all, he's he's going to be give a lot

279
00:11:40,388 --> 00:11:42,948
Speaker 9: of people a run for their money. So unless we

280
00:11:43,028 --> 00:11:45,028
Speaker 9: just finished talking about the quarterback position, being able to

281
00:11:45,028 --> 00:11:47,908
Speaker 9: win a championship with a with a above average or

282
00:11:47,908 --> 00:11:49,628
Speaker 9: an average quarterback in Geno Smith in that.

283
00:11:49,628 --> 00:11:51,388
Speaker 8: Division is going to be difficult.

284
00:11:51,428 --> 00:11:54,428
Speaker 9: But one thing I do like is the mindset that

285
00:11:54,468 --> 00:11:56,308
Speaker 9: they brought in and with a guy like Pete Carroll

286
00:11:56,348 --> 00:11:58,708
Speaker 9: and how he's able going to change the culture in

287
00:11:58,748 --> 00:12:01,028
Speaker 9: that locker room because he's done it every place he's

288
00:12:01,028 --> 00:12:03,108
Speaker 9: went in college or you know, the college own to

289
00:12:03,108 --> 00:12:06,148
Speaker 9: the Seahawks winner championship there. But man, it is going

290
00:12:06,228 --> 00:12:08,788
Speaker 9: to be rough for those guys when you plan in

291
00:12:08,788 --> 00:12:11,948
Speaker 9: that division and someone like Boat Nicks right now, you're

292
00:12:11,948 --> 00:12:14,508
Speaker 9: looking at is a young player like this, He's gonna

293
00:12:14,508 --> 00:12:16,828
Speaker 9: be a problem for a very long time. I just

294
00:12:16,868 --> 00:12:18,588
Speaker 9: don't think they made a big enough jump at that

295
00:12:18,668 --> 00:12:20,628
Speaker 9: quarterback position in order to make some noise in that

296
00:12:20,628 --> 00:12:21,268
Speaker 9: division this year.

297
00:12:21,308 --> 00:12:23,508
Speaker 2: Not for nothing the coaches in the AFC West or

298
00:12:23,548 --> 00:12:27,428
Speaker 2: something to behold the Andy Reid, Sean Peyton, Jim Harbor,

299
00:12:27,548 --> 00:12:33,668
Speaker 2: Pete Carroll experience. I mean, can you can you pick

300
00:12:33,668 --> 00:12:35,308
Speaker 2: a favorite personality in that crew?

301
00:12:35,588 --> 00:12:37,108
Speaker 8: I don't know.

302
00:12:40,828 --> 00:12:43,308
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, you're burgers.

303
00:12:43,308 --> 00:12:44,988
Speaker 6: You know, it's absolutely right.

304
00:12:45,668 --> 00:12:49,668
Speaker 5: Honestly, it's really only ones. I swear to God, football

305
00:12:49,668 --> 00:12:51,508
Speaker 5: and Tony dude, that's what he's.

306
00:12:51,708 --> 00:12:54,268
Speaker 3: Super Bowls and all right.

307
00:12:54,388 --> 00:12:57,588
Speaker 2: Speaking about trying to breed a culture to be competitive,

308
00:12:57,628 --> 00:12:59,388
Speaker 2: I'm sure the same could be said for what's happening

309
00:12:59,428 --> 00:13:01,708
Speaker 2: in New England. Mike Rabolt now the head coach there

310
00:13:01,748 --> 00:13:04,268
Speaker 2: after taking a year off, and the Patriots go up

311
00:13:04,268 --> 00:13:07,348
Speaker 2: and they draft tackle Will Campbell out of LSU. He's

312
00:13:07,348 --> 00:13:09,428
Speaker 2: a Louisy in a native a native son, if you will.

313
00:13:09,628 --> 00:13:12,748
Speaker 2: And a reporter asked him about what's going on in

314
00:13:12,788 --> 00:13:14,748
Speaker 2: New England and what surprises him the most.

315
00:13:15,308 --> 00:13:16,868
Speaker 3: Since you've gotten up here, I know, hasn't been long,

316
00:13:16,988 --> 00:13:19,348
Speaker 3: but about Foxborough, Yeah, Urst, New.

317
00:13:19,228 --> 00:13:19,908
Speaker 4: England in general.

318
00:13:20,268 --> 00:13:22,308
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm surprised there's trees.

319
00:13:23,868 --> 00:13:25,868
Speaker 4: Whenever before I'd never been anywhere up here.

320
00:13:25,788 --> 00:13:28,788
Speaker 12: Before, so I always thought, you know, this was a

321
00:13:28,788 --> 00:13:30,108
Speaker 12: little bit closer to Boston.

322
00:13:30,508 --> 00:13:32,548
Speaker 4: There was a bunch of big city buildings and stuff

323
00:13:32,588 --> 00:13:32,908
Speaker 4: like that.

324
00:13:33,028 --> 00:13:35,988
Speaker 13: So when I got out here and I pay me

325
00:13:36,028 --> 00:13:38,028
Speaker 13: offrom the airport, I said, angers, lob trees hunder.

326
00:13:38,028 --> 00:13:38,908
Speaker 4: I wouldn't expect me.

327
00:13:38,868 --> 00:13:42,628
Speaker 3: That, so I'd probably say, okay, it makes sense.

328
00:13:42,788 --> 00:13:45,468
Speaker 2: Actually, the longer you hear the sound first, you're like,

329
00:13:45,548 --> 00:13:46,468
Speaker 2: there's trees everywhere.

330
00:13:46,468 --> 00:13:48,748
Speaker 3: Will, Let's not let's.

331
00:13:48,508 --> 00:13:51,988
Speaker 2: Not totally right exactly, but it is Foxborough. If you've

332
00:13:51,988 --> 00:13:54,028
Speaker 2: ever been up in that area where the Patriots play,

333
00:13:54,108 --> 00:13:57,428
Speaker 2: it is about forty minutes removed from Boston proper. So

334
00:13:57,428 --> 00:13:58,668
Speaker 2: if he thinks he's going to go play for the

335
00:13:58,708 --> 00:14:00,908
Speaker 2: Boston Patriots, he's not. It's a New England Patriots.

336
00:14:00,908 --> 00:14:01,788
Speaker 3: You are, you are.

337
00:14:01,708 --> 00:14:04,628
Speaker 2: Amongst the trees there in Foxborough. We all I still

338
00:14:04,628 --> 00:14:07,068
Speaker 2: we're thinking about perhaps the furthest north Will Campbell had

339
00:14:07,108 --> 00:14:10,788
Speaker 2: played football was probably like Nashville in Tennessee. So not

340
00:14:10,828 --> 00:14:14,628
Speaker 2: surprised that he doesn't know as much about the environment

341
00:14:14,828 --> 00:14:18,188
Speaker 2: up there. Biggest surprise when you arrived to Rookie Mini

342
00:14:18,228 --> 00:14:20,228
Speaker 2: camp Will was where was it?

343
00:14:20,508 --> 00:14:21,588
Speaker 3: And was it the trees?

344
00:14:22,188 --> 00:14:22,988
Speaker 6: It was not there.

345
00:14:23,268 --> 00:14:24,628
Speaker 1: Actually it was a ton of trees. When I was

346
00:14:24,628 --> 00:14:27,388
Speaker 1: in Green Bay. I remember my first day in Green Bay.

347
00:14:27,468 --> 00:14:30,068
Speaker 1: I'm walking through the parking lot and you know, I'm

348
00:14:30,068 --> 00:14:31,388
Speaker 1: seeing all these like cool cars.

349
00:14:31,468 --> 00:14:31,628
Speaker 6: You know.

350
00:14:31,708 --> 00:14:33,468
Speaker 1: Nick Barnett was one of my teammates, and he was

351
00:14:33,468 --> 00:14:36,588
Speaker 1: a big flashy guy. And I grew up watching Charles

352
00:14:36,588 --> 00:14:38,628
Speaker 1: Woodson and I remember I've seen Charles. I've seen a

353
00:14:38,668 --> 00:14:41,708
Speaker 1: car park and a man got out and I looked

354
00:14:41,948 --> 00:14:46,268
Speaker 1: and Charles. He was by all means no offense anybody.

355
00:14:46,388 --> 00:14:48,788
Speaker 1: But he had a two thousand and five like gold

356
00:14:48,908 --> 00:14:53,268
Speaker 1: Chevy Blazer. And I was like, no way, Like I said, ah,

357
00:14:53,828 --> 00:14:55,788
Speaker 1: he's probably saving his money, that's what he's doing.

358
00:14:55,988 --> 00:14:58,148
Speaker 6: He saved. So that shocked me. I was waiting.

359
00:14:58,188 --> 00:15:00,108
Speaker 1: I was thinking he was gonna have some crazy vehic

360
00:15:00,108 --> 00:15:01,828
Speaker 1: because a lot of guys, a lot of guys had

361
00:15:01,868 --> 00:15:02,468
Speaker 1: crazy cars.

362
00:15:02,508 --> 00:15:03,988
Speaker 3: But because what year was this?

363
00:15:03,988 --> 00:15:05,588
Speaker 6: This was the one thousand and six, all right.

364
00:15:05,508 --> 00:15:08,108
Speaker 3: So he had an one year old gold Chevy Blazers.

365
00:15:08,268 --> 00:15:11,148
Speaker 1: They used Chevy Blazer. I thought I thought Charles Woodson

366
00:15:11,308 --> 00:15:12,988
Speaker 1: like the guy. I thought he was gonna have something

367
00:15:13,028 --> 00:15:14,708
Speaker 1: crazy a bent Ley or Roy's or something.

368
00:15:15,068 --> 00:15:16,428
Speaker 6: No, he just but that was him.

369
00:15:16,468 --> 00:15:18,188
Speaker 1: He was a humble, low key guy and that was

370
00:15:18,708 --> 00:15:20,788
Speaker 1: that was for me the biggest surprise.

371
00:15:21,188 --> 00:15:23,748
Speaker 2: Nothing about that you are a New England kid going

372
00:15:23,788 --> 00:15:24,508
Speaker 2: to Green Bay.

373
00:15:24,708 --> 00:15:26,388
Speaker 3: Nothing about the cheese or the beer.

374
00:15:26,508 --> 00:15:30,388
Speaker 2: That is the It's the the lack of flash was all.

375
00:15:30,428 --> 00:15:33,028
Speaker 1: I was all football, so I was so excited to

376
00:15:33,148 --> 00:15:36,228
Speaker 1: be like in a football environment. So for me, I

377
00:15:36,348 --> 00:15:38,068
Speaker 1: wasn't like culture shocked or anything like that.

378
00:15:38,068 --> 00:15:38,548
Speaker 3: That's cool.

379
00:15:38,668 --> 00:15:41,788
Speaker 5: Well, there's like less cheese or walking around. There are trees.

380
00:15:41,828 --> 00:15:42,228
Speaker 6: I don't think.

381
00:15:42,228 --> 00:15:48,548
Speaker 5: I don't think forty minutes of straight trees.

382
00:15:48,668 --> 00:15:50,948
Speaker 6: Straight trees. If you live to t f Green Providence,

383
00:15:50,988 --> 00:15:51,948
Speaker 6: straight trees, trees.

384
00:15:52,068 --> 00:15:54,308
Speaker 5: The one thing that happened to me it was unfortunate,

385
00:15:54,348 --> 00:15:56,748
Speaker 5: was I lost my bag coming in. So for some

386
00:15:56,788 --> 00:15:59,028
Speaker 5: reason someone told me that she should show up in

387
00:15:59,028 --> 00:15:59,868
Speaker 5: a suit and tie.

388
00:15:59,988 --> 00:16:01,628
Speaker 3: Okay, so you're going to Kansas City.

389
00:16:01,988 --> 00:16:03,828
Speaker 5: Kansasity, suit and tie, and I already feel kind of

390
00:16:03,828 --> 00:16:05,508
Speaker 5: like a square talking on the plane with the suit

391
00:16:05,508 --> 00:16:08,228
Speaker 5: and tie on. And then I lose my bags and

392
00:16:08,228 --> 00:16:09,988
Speaker 5: I show up to the facility, and of course you're

393
00:16:09,988 --> 00:16:13,748
Speaker 5: seeing guys that you've grown up on TV, Jamal Charles,

394
00:16:14,468 --> 00:16:16,588
Speaker 5: Derek Johnson their longhorns and I would grew up a

395
00:16:16,628 --> 00:16:18,268
Speaker 5: huge longhorn. And I come in with a suit and

396
00:16:18,268 --> 00:16:20,468
Speaker 5: tiber moils. We're in sweats, and you can tell these

397
00:16:20,468 --> 00:16:25,588
Speaker 5: guys are thinking that I'm just an absolute nerd just so,

398
00:16:25,948 --> 00:16:27,428
Speaker 5: and I had no hair. I looked like I was

399
00:16:27,468 --> 00:16:30,548
Speaker 5: forty then. But besides all of that, the biggest thing

400
00:16:30,588 --> 00:16:32,268
Speaker 5: for me, kind of going back a few segments ago

401
00:16:32,268 --> 00:16:36,668
Speaker 5: when we were talking about playbooks and installs, is how

402
00:16:36,708 --> 00:16:40,908
Speaker 5: intensive and how just intense that day one install is

403
00:16:40,948 --> 00:16:42,948
Speaker 5: and you're getting that, you're getting this information you might

404
00:16:42,988 --> 00:16:45,028
Speaker 5: get a little bit before you go in the day before,

405
00:16:45,348 --> 00:16:47,468
Speaker 5: and then they expect you to implement that on the field,

406
00:16:47,668 --> 00:16:49,668
Speaker 5: and so your head spinning, and then you're trying to

407
00:16:49,668 --> 00:16:51,908
Speaker 5: also take in new technique, which is different for everyone.

408
00:16:51,988 --> 00:16:54,268
Speaker 5: Of course it's the same position, but there's different ways

409
00:16:54,268 --> 00:16:56,268
Speaker 5: to skin the cat. And it was just kind of

410
00:16:56,308 --> 00:16:58,588
Speaker 5: remember just being like calling my mom because I still

411
00:16:58,588 --> 00:17:01,668
Speaker 5: had my suit and I'm like, I hate it here. Yeah,

412
00:17:03,108 --> 00:17:05,188
Speaker 5: But it was just how much you get all at

413
00:17:05,228 --> 00:17:06,748
Speaker 5: once and them expecting you.

414
00:17:06,708 --> 00:17:07,468
Speaker 8: To put it on the field.

415
00:17:07,908 --> 00:17:10,508
Speaker 9: We're talking about information at once. I actually held out,

416
00:17:10,868 --> 00:17:16,668
Speaker 9: so I didn't walk in two weeks, so I pulled

417
00:17:16,668 --> 00:17:18,308
Speaker 9: a vet before I was event.

418
00:17:19,988 --> 00:17:20,708
Speaker 8: I shut out.

419
00:17:20,828 --> 00:17:23,148
Speaker 9: And the first time I got there was two weeks

420
00:17:23,188 --> 00:17:24,348
Speaker 9: before the first preseason game.

421
00:17:24,388 --> 00:17:25,508
Speaker 8: So you're talking about information.

422
00:17:25,868 --> 00:17:27,788
Speaker 9: I'm seeing this playbook for the first time, and my

423
00:17:27,868 --> 00:17:30,308
Speaker 9: eyes got this big. So I'm looking at the way Phillips,

424
00:17:30,348 --> 00:17:32,668
Speaker 9: looking at John Pagano, looking at Greg Mnosky, who's my

425
00:17:32,828 --> 00:17:35,788
Speaker 9: linebackers coach, and I said, okay, what do you want

426
00:17:35,828 --> 00:17:38,188
Speaker 9: me to do with this thing here? So they're talking

427
00:17:38,228 --> 00:17:40,268
Speaker 9: about the information overload. I had to catch up. I

428
00:17:40,268 --> 00:17:42,548
Speaker 9: didn't know what to do the first week of practice

429
00:17:42,628 --> 00:17:44,748
Speaker 9: until they brought me into the room and said, we're

430
00:17:44,748 --> 00:17:46,268
Speaker 9: gonna line you up in that that we want you

431
00:17:46,308 --> 00:17:47,148
Speaker 9: to seaball go ball.

432
00:17:47,228 --> 00:17:49,668
Speaker 8: So talking about position and talking about information.

433
00:17:49,788 --> 00:17:51,228
Speaker 9: That was the first time I got a chance to

434
00:17:51,268 --> 00:17:53,268
Speaker 9: see NFL playbook was two weeks before.

435
00:17:53,508 --> 00:17:56,588
Speaker 1: That's my point, right, They had an absolute stud come

436
00:17:56,588 --> 00:17:58,788
Speaker 1: in it, and they made it simple, like seatball, get ball,

437
00:17:58,868 --> 00:17:59,228
Speaker 1: that's it.

438
00:17:59,348 --> 00:17:59,748
Speaker 8: You know what I mean.

439
00:17:59,868 --> 00:18:01,668
Speaker 1: In terms of my argument with Travis Hunter, like they

440
00:18:01,668 --> 00:18:03,108
Speaker 1: got a guy. We're gonna make it simple.

441
00:18:03,188 --> 00:18:05,988
Speaker 2: Go kill the quarterback, and this guy from Maryland from

442
00:18:05,988 --> 00:18:08,068
Speaker 2: the mid Atlantic is going to hold out and then

443
00:18:08,068 --> 00:18:10,508
Speaker 2: show up in San Diego and the beach. Was there

444
00:18:10,548 --> 00:18:12,908
Speaker 2: anything that surprised you about what you were getting into.

445
00:18:13,068 --> 00:18:16,708
Speaker 8: Well, I've seen palm tree palm trees. Trees, Yeah, trees.

446
00:18:17,708 --> 00:18:19,468
Speaker 9: There's a lot of tre like trees like he saw,

447
00:18:19,508 --> 00:18:21,828
Speaker 9: but palm trees in particular, and going over the ocean

448
00:18:22,068 --> 00:18:23,828
Speaker 9: landing out ship. Oh my god, I get a chance

00:18:23,868 --> 00:18:25,468
Speaker 9: to play here for five years.

450
00:18:25,468 --> 00:18:26,228
Speaker 8: This is crazy.

451
00:18:26,468 --> 00:18:27,108
Speaker 3: That's instant.

536
00:21:47,228 --> 00:21:50,508
Speaker 5: around Mike Evans, all right, he hit his eleventh season

537
00:21:50,588 --> 00:21:54,508
Speaker 5: with a thousand yards. That's no small feet, pal. What

538
00:21:54,628 --> 00:21:56,388
Speaker 5: was the vibe around the team when that went down?

539
00:21:56,468 --> 00:21:58,588
Speaker 5: Is that something that you kind of you don't bring

540
00:21:58,708 --> 00:22:00,508
Speaker 5: up or you're hyping them up? Because I also saw

Speaker 5: the video when that happened. It was a party, dude,

542
00:22:03,828 --> 00:22:05,668

Speaker 5: a teammate who's so consistent. Yeah, kind of like yourself

544
00:22:08,748 --> 00:22:10,748
Speaker 5: in that matter. And what did that mean to him?

545
00:22:11,188 --> 00:22:12,868
Speaker 5: And what do you see from him on a day

546
00:22:12,868 --> 00:22:13,508

00:25:09,508 --> 00:25:11,868
Speaker 4: he know baked like all type of music and stuff

629
00:25:11,908 --> 00:25:12,228
Speaker 4: like that.

630
00:25:12,268 --> 00:25:15,028
Speaker 10: So oh yeah, I had that.

631
00:25:15,028 --> 00:25:19,508
Speaker 3: That's a good one, yea that I That's perfect. All right,

632
00:25:19,908 --> 00:25:21,628
Speaker 3: keep this going, Let's keep this going.

633
00:25:21,948 --> 00:25:24,748
Speaker 2: The Pro Bowl, you know, it's newly reinvented byye Verizon,

634
00:25:24,868 --> 00:25:26,428
Speaker 2: and there they have all the Pro Bowl skills.

635
00:25:26,428 --> 00:25:28,868
Speaker 3: I think on Sunday afternoon they do tug of war.

636
00:25:29,228 --> 00:25:33,108
Speaker 2: The Buccaneers Jason Light had some fun this offseason. He

637
00:25:33,148 --> 00:25:37,308
Speaker 2: went with some undrafted rookies like Desmond Watson, who weighs

638
00:25:37,308 --> 00:25:39,748
Speaker 2: over four hundred pounds. And then you also got Vitave

639
00:25:39,948 --> 00:25:43,308
Speaker 2: on your team already, who's nearly three point fifty, which

640
00:25:43,348 --> 00:25:46,068
Speaker 2: one of these teammates would you pick to be on

641
00:25:46,108 --> 00:25:47,788
Speaker 2: your team in tug of war?

642
00:25:48,708 --> 00:25:52,228
Speaker 10: Well, me, knowing Vita personally and how strong he is,

643
00:25:52,708 --> 00:25:54,908
Speaker 10: I'll probably biased and piggy Vita.

644
00:25:55,108 --> 00:25:56,108
Speaker 8: But I went.

645
00:25:56,308 --> 00:25:58,348
Speaker 4: I went to the facility one day and I believe

646
00:25:58,388 --> 00:25:59,948
Speaker 4: they had the kid walkers.

647
00:25:59,588 --> 00:26:02,268
Speaker 10: And there working out, and the way Vita talked about him,

648
00:26:02,308 --> 00:26:07,028
Speaker 10: he kind of felt intimidated. So I might go, uh, well,

649
00:26:07,308 --> 00:26:09,988
Speaker 10: Desmond Watson, you know, just because.

650
00:26:09,668 --> 00:26:12,148
Speaker 4: You know what I what I heard from there. But

651
00:26:12,308 --> 00:26:14,388
Speaker 4: you know, being my boy, you know it's not personal.

652
00:26:14,508 --> 00:26:17,388
Speaker 4: But it's his fault that I got levant.

653
00:26:17,668 --> 00:26:20,828
Speaker 9: We know the average NFL career is three years. Man,

654
00:26:20,948 --> 00:26:23,348
Speaker 9: you're going and when you're fourteen. Now, what are you

655
00:26:23,348 --> 00:26:25,348
Speaker 9: telling these young bucks when they walk in in, these rookies?

656
00:26:25,348 --> 00:26:26,428

Speaker 4: Which is fine. You know, you want to learn and

Speaker 4: stuff like that.

665
00:26:38,348 --> 00:26:40,468
Speaker 10: But at the same time, the stuff off the field,

666
00:26:40,508 --> 00:26:42,148
Speaker 10: I feel I feel like you should reach out and

667
00:26:42,388 --> 00:26:44,428
Speaker 10: you know, ask veterans and stuff like that how they

675
00:27:00,588 --> 00:27:02,388

697
00:27:52,188 --> 00:27:53,628
Speaker 4: I feel like, you know, last.

698
00:27:53,508 --> 00:27:55,668
Speaker 10: Year, the season, the end how we wanted to end

699
00:27:55,988 --> 00:27:58,028
Speaker 10: pass off to Washington, but we feel.

700
00:27:57,908 --> 00:28:00,268
Speaker 4: Like we should we should we should have been furted

701
00:28:00,308 --> 00:28:01,788
Speaker 4: them what we did. So we got a lot of

702
00:28:01,788 --> 00:28:03,988
Speaker 4: counselents growing in the locker room and bringing in a

703
00:28:03,988 --> 00:28:04,988

Speaker 10: gonna bring They're gonna add into what we want to

706
00:28:08,868 --> 00:28:11,508
Speaker 10: do as an organization. And that's why I feel like we, uh,

707
00:28:11,708 --> 00:28:13,628
Speaker 10: we could do it again and take it even further.

708
00:28:13,948 --> 00:28:16,548
Speaker 2: Well, we certainly hope that for you, Levante, you seem

709
00:28:16,548 --> 00:28:18,988
Speaker 2: like such a cool, calm guy. But I have to

710
00:28:19,028 --> 00:28:21,588
Speaker 2: assume after fourteen years, one of the greatest skills you

711
00:28:21,668 --> 00:28:23,348
Speaker 2: have is that you can turn it on when it

712
00:28:23,348 --> 00:28:26,748
Speaker 2: comes to playing the game of football. What happened last

713
00:28:26,868 --> 00:28:29,988
Speaker 2: joint practice last summer in the state of Florida. When

714
00:28:29,988 --> 00:28:32,428
Speaker 2: it gets entirely too hot and the Bucks and the

715
00:28:32,508 --> 00:28:35,188
Speaker 2: Jags are going head dead? Did you hit our man here,

716
00:28:35,188 --> 00:28:39,508
Speaker 2: Mitch Morris a little too for It's the story everyone did.

717
00:28:39,588 --> 00:28:42,668
Speaker 4: Oh man, you know Misgid tell you it was hot

718
00:28:42,748 --> 00:28:46,228
Speaker 4: down there. It was brutal. Yeah, it was terrible, man.

719
00:28:46,308 --> 00:28:48,508
Speaker 10: And you know, when it gets hot, you know what

720
00:28:48,548 --> 00:28:50,308
Speaker 10: I'm saying, everybody gets frustrated.

721
00:28:50,348 --> 00:28:51,668
Speaker 4: You just go just.

722
00:28:51,668 --> 00:28:53,028
Speaker 10: Lose it, you know what I'm saying. You just go

723
00:28:53,148 --> 00:28:55,148
Speaker 10: all out every time. You know, you just try to.

724
00:28:56,028 --> 00:28:59,188
Speaker 10: You never know what's going on in somebody's mind when

725
00:28:59,228 --> 00:29:01,988
Speaker 10: it's really hot. So you just want to is you

726
00:29:02,068 --> 00:29:03,988
Speaker 10: never say you want to. It's one of those credits

727
00:29:04,108 --> 00:29:05,628
Speaker 10: you want to get some over it. But that was

728
00:29:05,668 --> 00:29:07,108
Speaker 10: one of those present when you want to get over

729
00:29:07,308 --> 00:29:08,388
Speaker 10: so you just go hard.

730
00:29:08,468 --> 00:29:08,668
Speaker 4: You know.

731
00:29:08,828 --> 00:29:11,668
Speaker 5: We were all looking at each other with our eye

732
00:29:11,708 --> 00:29:14,468
Speaker 5: cond eyes you know, speak a thousand words sometimes and

733
00:29:14,508 --> 00:29:17,068
Speaker 5: no one can speak really and listen. The Holy Spirit

734
00:29:17,148 --> 00:29:19,868
Speaker 5: comes out in so many ways, and when he comes

735
00:29:19,908 --> 00:29:21,548
Speaker 5: out of the truth, we are all out there dying.

736
00:29:21,588 --> 00:29:23,988
Speaker 5: And uh, I think there's one day we ran like

737
00:29:24,028 --> 00:29:28,348
Speaker 5: sixty plays and it was dude, by like period three.

738
00:29:28,428 --> 00:29:29,348
Speaker 4: Nothing is going done.

739
00:29:29,468 --> 00:29:32,148
Speaker 5: We were just leaning at each other. But dude, you

740
00:29:32,228 --> 00:29:34,508
Speaker 5: are the standard. He is the standard. Something that David

741

Speaker 5: Klight says, I appreciate you. Weal you're the man.

745
00:29:46,348 --> 00:29:49,348
Speaker 2: played since twenty twelve goes to that man coming out

746
00:29:49,348 --> 00:29:52,548

Speaker 4: Thank you, guys, Appreciate you. God bless.

749
00:29:57,548 --> 00:30:00,948
Speaker 2: With the unexpected retirement of Saints quarterback Derek Carr over

750
00:30:00,948 --> 00:30:04,708
Speaker 2: the weekend, that leaves some uneasiness in the Big Easy

751
00:30:05,068 --> 00:30:07,548
Speaker 2: when it comes to a starting quarterback for the twenty

752
00:30:07,588 --> 00:30:10,108
Speaker 2: twenty five season, what are the Saints gonna do? Their

753
00:30:10,188 --> 00:30:12,108
Speaker 2: new head coach Kelled Moore says, it will be an

754
00:30:12,148 --> 00:30:14,188
Speaker 2: open competition heading into training camp.

755
00:30:15,108 --> 00:30:16,988
Speaker 13: We're gonna let all three of these guys role, and

756
00:30:17,268 --> 00:30:20,388
Speaker 13: they've all earned these opportunities. We'll let Jake, you know,

757
00:30:20,428 --> 00:30:23,468
Speaker 13: Spencer and Tyler all three kind of go through this process.

758
00:30:24,028 --> 00:30:24,188
Speaker 8: You know.

759
00:30:24,188 --> 00:30:26,988
Speaker 13: Again, we'll play patience, let these guys compete, let them

760
00:30:26,988 --> 00:30:29,268
Speaker 13: get into training camp, and you know, nationally, these guys

761
00:30:29,268 --> 00:30:30,348
Speaker 13: will kind of take care of itself.

762
00:30:31,348 --> 00:30:32,828
Speaker 2: Well, I don't even know if I should read this

763
00:30:32,868 --> 00:30:34,988
Speaker 2: news story. I don't think we're allowed to talk about

764
00:30:35,028 --> 00:30:37,468
Speaker 2: that number forty four in the Giants Jersey without Kyle

765
00:30:37,508 --> 00:30:39,348
Speaker 2: Brandt being on the show. But I'll try to do

766
00:30:39,548 --> 00:30:43,668
Speaker 2: cam Skataboo justice, all right. Kyle loves this running back

767
00:30:43,708 --> 00:30:46,548
Speaker 2: for the Giants a lot because of his hard nosed

768
00:30:46,828 --> 00:30:49,268
Speaker 2: running style. I don't know if it's a good thing

769
00:30:49,348 --> 00:30:50,708
Speaker 2: or a bad thing that he's not here today to

770
00:30:50,748 --> 00:30:54,948
Speaker 2: talk about Skataboo. But listen, he says his favorite thing

771
00:30:55,628 --> 00:30:57,828
Speaker 2: beyond scoring a touchdown, is what he gets to do

772
00:30:58,268 --> 00:30:59,388
Speaker 2: after the Facts celebrate.

773
00:31:01,148 --> 00:31:04,948
Speaker 15: She's getting the ends. I mean, you know, it feels

774
00:31:04,948 --> 00:31:06,388
Speaker 15: good when you run somebody over and then getting the

775
00:31:06,428 --> 00:31:07,748
Speaker 15: in zone. I mean, it feels good when you get

776
00:31:07,748 --> 00:31:09,228
Speaker 15: in the en zone. But imagine running someone over and

777
00:31:09,228 --> 00:31:10,668
Speaker 15: then running another person over and then getting in the

778
00:31:10,748 --> 00:31:11,108
Speaker 15: end zone.

779
00:31:11,268 --> 00:31:12,348
Speaker 4: It's not much better, you know.

780
00:31:13,308 --> 00:31:15,188
Speaker 15: So it just shows that you know, when when you're

781
00:31:15,188 --> 00:31:16,868
Speaker 15: physical It shows the work you put in, you know,

782
00:31:16,908 --> 00:31:20,708
Speaker 15: the weight room, and how much you do to make

783
00:31:20,748 --> 00:31:21,348
Speaker 15: your game better.

784
00:31:22,828 --> 00:31:24,828
Speaker 2: How many scepters is that man gonna win next year

785
00:31:24,828 --> 00:31:25,548
Speaker 2: for angry runs?

786
00:31:25,588 --> 00:31:26,708
Speaker 3: I mean it's inevitable.

787
00:31:26,748 --> 00:31:29,188
Speaker 2: I've never seen one that is destined more for a

788
00:31:29,268 --> 00:31:30,588
Speaker 2: rookie running back coming up.

789
00:31:31,188 --> 00:31:33,268
Speaker 3: Lights out at the table. I think we.

790
00:31:33,228 --> 00:31:36,068
Speaker 2: Actually someone is going to unplug the lights in the studio.

791
00:31:36,108 --> 00:31:38,108
Speaker 2: Sean Merriman at the table. We have to talk about

792
00:31:38,148 --> 00:31:40,708
Speaker 2: teams that miss the playoffs. Are they gonna go lights out?

793
00:31:41,028 --> 00:31:42,988
Speaker 2: Are they gonna move on, move forth and make the

794
00:31:42,988 --> 00:31:44,948
Speaker 2: playoffs next season? We're talking about this in May.

795
00:31:44,988 --> 00:32:04,308
Speaker 16: I gmfie old right back, Good morning football. At all

796
00:32:04,708 --> 00:32:06,508
Speaker 16: the light down gone Merriman.

797
00:32:08,628 --> 00:32:12,428
Speaker 6: Merriman got him again. Boom boom boom out go the lights.

798
00:32:15,948 --> 00:32:20,508
Speaker 3: We're not doing the segment what he just admitted.

799
00:32:20,708 --> 00:32:24,228
Speaker 2: Okay, first of all, a fantastic highlight film, oh man.

800
00:32:24,508 --> 00:32:27,188
Speaker 2: Nothing cooler than sacking a quarterback and standing up and

801
00:32:27,228 --> 00:32:29,388
Speaker 2: not wearing your helmet and then doing the lights out?

802
00:32:29,668 --> 00:32:30,508
Speaker 3: How did that happen?

803
00:32:30,988 --> 00:32:31,188
Speaker 8: Look?

804
00:32:31,228 --> 00:32:33,548
Speaker 9: I just threw myself on the under the bus right now,

805
00:32:33,588 --> 00:32:36,628
Speaker 9: but always always kept one unbuckle right before it happens

806
00:32:36,668 --> 00:32:38,748
Speaker 9: when the helpman come off. Everybody see my face and

807
00:32:38,748 --> 00:32:39,748
Speaker 9: didn't do the lights out there?

808
00:32:39,948 --> 00:32:41,388
Speaker 8: It was it was a little bit. It was a

809
00:32:41,388 --> 00:32:42,108
Speaker 8: little bit scripted.

810
00:32:42,308 --> 00:32:48,028
Speaker 2: This ess with that, I've never loved anything said, not

811
00:32:48,188 --> 00:32:50,228
Speaker 2: five seconds before we come back on to anymore.

812
00:32:50,348 --> 00:32:51,268
Speaker 3: I can't believe that.

813
00:32:51,748 --> 00:33:02,228
Speaker 2: How infuriating is that as an offensive lineman, you saw

814
00:33:02,268 --> 00:33:06,268
Speaker 2: that lights out celebration forty five times over from this

815
00:33:06,388 --> 00:33:08,348
Speaker 2: man in his time in the NFL, And it's become

816
00:33:08,388 --> 00:33:09,268
Speaker 2: your tattoo.

817
00:33:09,348 --> 00:33:10,868
Speaker 3: You got the whole thing. It's your trademark.

818
00:33:11,108 --> 00:33:14,668
Speaker 2: So let's play lights out or lights on for teams

819
00:33:14,748 --> 00:33:17,468
Speaker 2: next season. We have a handful of teams that missed

820
00:33:17,468 --> 00:33:19,868
Speaker 2: the playoffs in twenty twenty four, and we are going

821
00:33:19,948 --> 00:33:22,508
Speaker 2: to go around the table and choose whether or not

822
00:33:22,628 --> 00:33:25,348
Speaker 2: whether the draft picks that they made, the offseason moves

823
00:33:25,348 --> 00:33:27,788
Speaker 2: that they've done. Are you going to go lights out

824
00:33:27,908 --> 00:33:29,988
Speaker 2: on this team for next season like night night, like

825
00:33:30,028 --> 00:33:32,388
Speaker 2: Sean Merriman just put you to bed, or going to

826
00:33:32,508 --> 00:33:34,068
Speaker 2: keep the lights on and we're going to care about him.

827
00:33:34,108 --> 00:33:36,508
Speaker 2: So Sean, let's start with the San Francisco forty nine ers.

828
00:33:36,548 --> 00:33:39,428
Speaker 2: Weird season for them last year. They got a quarterback.

829
00:33:39,428 --> 00:33:41,868
Speaker 2: They got to pay. They have a ton of defensive changes.

830
00:33:42,268 --> 00:33:43,868
Speaker 2: Are you going lights out of the forty nine ers

831
00:33:43,948 --> 00:33:44,428
Speaker 2: next season?

832
00:33:44,628 --> 00:33:45,908
Speaker 8: You know, I'm going lights on.

833
00:33:46,388 --> 00:33:48,188
Speaker 9: You know, I didn't think they needed a whole lot

834
00:33:48,188 --> 00:33:50,188
Speaker 9: of working out to do this all season of what

835
00:33:50,268 --> 00:33:52,708
Speaker 9: they look at what they did need, right.

836
00:33:52,508 --> 00:33:55,188
Speaker 8: Oh, look at that. That's what I'm talking about. That's

837
00:33:55,228 --> 00:33:55,988
Speaker 8: what I'm talking about.

838
00:33:56,868 --> 00:33:59,508
Speaker 9: You know, I think their biggest problem was always just injury.

839
00:33:59,548 --> 00:34:01,628
Speaker 9: They've just been by the injury bug. And you know

840
00:34:01,668 --> 00:34:04,548
Speaker 9: from Brock parody, I've been with field, Chris McCaffrey not

841
00:34:04,628 --> 00:34:07,308
Speaker 9: being on the field brand Now you not Deeble Samuel's gone,

842
00:34:07,308 --> 00:34:09,708
Speaker 9: but you know green Law, it will just really riddled

843
00:34:09,708 --> 00:34:11,628
Speaker 9: by Andrey. This is not It's always been a really

844
00:34:11,668 --> 00:34:12,068
Speaker 9: good team.

845
00:34:12,348 --> 00:34:13,948
Speaker 8: They stay healthy. I think should be lights on.

846
00:34:13,988 --> 00:34:17,388
Speaker 2: They got to change a defensive coordinator to time with

847
00:34:17,508 --> 00:34:19,388
Speaker 2: the Jets. He gets to go back to the Bay Area,

848
00:34:19,628 --> 00:34:22,308
Speaker 2: all right. So that's one side of the NFC. A

849
00:34:22,348 --> 00:34:24,588
Speaker 2: team that they sometimes have to face in the postseason

850
00:34:24,588 --> 00:34:27,348
Speaker 2: would be the Dallas Cowboys. They've got a new head coach,

851
00:34:27,428 --> 00:34:30,028
Speaker 2: someone that was within the system already. They have a

852
00:34:30,068 --> 00:34:33,588
Speaker 2: new wide receiver, but a pre existing quarterback set up, Mitch,

853
00:34:33,668 --> 00:34:36,308
Speaker 2: do you go lights out or keep the lights on?

854
00:34:36,348 --> 00:34:38,308
Speaker 5: To the cop Well, I found these cool cards.

855
00:34:38,308 --> 00:34:41,748
Speaker 3: They're fancy written on the other side of that.

856
00:34:41,868 --> 00:34:44,028
Speaker 5: Well, well, I'll see that's a good question. You gave

857
00:34:44,068 --> 00:34:46,108
Speaker 5: me one of the most polarizing teams in the NFL.

858
00:34:46,588 --> 00:34:49,948
Speaker 2: It's yeah, you're new here, so we just figured why

859
00:34:49,948 --> 00:34:53,068
Speaker 2: not missed why I'm using the heart cards and you're

860
00:34:53,108 --> 00:34:55,148
Speaker 2: gonna make You're gonna say something about the Cowboys in

861
00:34:55,188 --> 00:34:57,188
Speaker 2: May and then it's just going to be held to you.

862
00:34:57,308 --> 00:34:59,108
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what's really up. So I'm gonna say it

863
00:34:59,148 --> 00:35:04,828
Speaker 5: lights off, man, I know, and I'm be on every

864
00:35:04,908 --> 00:35:06,988
Speaker 5: cliff that when the Cowboys going a Super Bowl run,

865
00:35:07,028 --> 00:35:10,148
Speaker 5: I'll be on every clip. And that freaked me out

866
00:35:10,188 --> 00:35:12,348
Speaker 5: a little bit. So I'm not gonna do that again.

867
00:35:12,628 --> 00:35:15,908
Speaker 5: As easily as it is off, it could be on.

868
00:35:16,188 --> 00:35:17,508
Speaker 5: I just want to see the light strong. But the

869
00:35:17,788 --> 00:35:21,028
Speaker 5: truth of it is, I think it comes down to

870
00:35:21,028 --> 00:35:23,428
Speaker 5: the health of the quarterback. Yeah, right, comes down to

871
00:35:23,428 --> 00:35:26,748
Speaker 5: health the quarterback. It's a quarterback driven league. So if

872
00:35:26,868 --> 00:35:28,708
Speaker 5: Dak can get on it, I think shot he is

873
00:35:28,748 --> 00:35:31,428
Speaker 5: going to be a really cool piece of this. I

874
00:35:31,508 --> 00:35:33,468
Speaker 5: just want them to show me it. Yeah, and when

875
00:35:33,508 --> 00:35:36,908
Speaker 5: they do, they can burn. They can put a big

876
00:35:36,948 --> 00:35:39,028
Speaker 5: picture of me with that stupid card on there. Sure

877
00:35:39,708 --> 00:35:40,508
Speaker 5: a flame? Yeah, that's all.

878
00:35:40,748 --> 00:35:41,108
Speaker 8: This is great.

879
00:35:41,268 --> 00:35:43,028
Speaker 6: He's about to answer a question for a million dollars, right.

880
00:35:44,748 --> 00:35:46,388
Speaker 9: You know he can't go to Dallas no time, so

881
00:35:47,308 --> 00:35:49,708
Speaker 9: connection man from Austin, So I can't go I can't

882
00:35:49,708 --> 00:35:50,028
Speaker 9: go home.

883
00:35:50,108 --> 00:35:50,268
Speaker 6: No.

884
00:35:50,428 --> 00:35:52,348
Speaker 2: I think it just implies that the Cowboys like pay

885
00:35:52,388 --> 00:35:52,988
Speaker 2: the bills or something.

886
00:35:53,108 --> 00:35:53,708
Speaker 3: Keep the lights on.

887
00:35:54,948 --> 00:35:56,268
Speaker 5: I already regret this decision.

888
00:35:58,068 --> 00:36:01,588
Speaker 2: All right, Well, let's talk about the Atlanta Falcons. They

889
00:36:01,748 --> 00:36:04,508
Speaker 2: have a what is to become a second year quarterback.

890
00:36:04,548 --> 00:36:07,268
Speaker 2: They are attempting to settle in to a division as well.

891
00:36:07,268 --> 00:36:08,628
Speaker 3: That's kind of ripe for the taking.

892
00:36:08,708 --> 00:36:11,468
Speaker 2: Are you keeping the lights on or are lights out

893
00:36:11,548 --> 00:36:12,508
Speaker 2: for the Falcons?

894
00:36:12,668 --> 00:36:15,428
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a team despite having quarterback. Stuff happened

895
00:36:15,468 --> 00:36:17,588
Speaker 1: last year, they still finished eight and nine, second in

896
00:36:17,588 --> 00:36:20,508
Speaker 1: the division. And you know what, this year, I'm gonna

897
00:36:20,508 --> 00:36:24,308
Speaker 1: go lights on with these guys. Okay, you know, tons

898
00:36:24,348 --> 00:36:26,828
Speaker 1: of battles with the New Orleans Saints and obviously they're

899
00:36:26,828 --> 00:36:28,988
Speaker 1: going to a situation where they don't have a quarterback.

900
00:36:29,268 --> 00:36:31,348
Speaker 1: And then Tampa Bay, as we just talked to Lavonte,

901
00:36:31,388 --> 00:36:33,308
Speaker 1: So they're gonna come back ready strong. He's trying to

902
00:36:33,308 --> 00:36:35,548
Speaker 1: get you know, the fifth division win. But I don't

903
00:36:35,588 --> 00:36:37,588
Speaker 1: know Atlanta. I just feel like right now, like they're

904
00:36:37,588 --> 00:36:39,788
Speaker 1: settled in what's going on here. They're going to be competitive.

905
00:36:39,948 --> 00:36:41,108
Speaker 1: I'm gonna set lights on for them.

906
00:36:41,668 --> 00:36:43,988
Speaker 2: Okay, let's go with another second year quarterback in the

907
00:36:44,068 --> 00:36:47,188
Speaker 2: NFC North in Caleb Williams, but he has a new

908
00:36:47,188 --> 00:36:49,908
Speaker 2: head coach, Ben Johnson comes over from the Detroit Lions.

909
00:36:49,988 --> 00:36:52,988
Speaker 2: Knew everything, they knew everything really except for the quarterback

910
00:36:53,428 --> 00:36:56,308
Speaker 2: in Chicago shun Is it lights out for the Bears

911
00:36:56,308 --> 00:36:57,468
Speaker 2: again in twenty twenty five.

912
00:36:57,748 --> 00:36:59,868
Speaker 8: No, I'm going lights on. I'm going lights on it.

913
00:37:00,348 --> 00:37:02,908
Speaker 9: And I said this, I always thought they had, you know,

914
00:37:03,188 --> 00:37:05,468
Speaker 9: a good staff. Always they had a good team, but

915
00:37:05,508 --> 00:37:09,308
Speaker 9: they were missing something at that coaching spot. They always

916
00:37:09,308 --> 00:37:10,868
Speaker 9: needed a good leader. I think they got a great

917
00:37:10,868 --> 00:37:12,348
Speaker 9: win in Ben Johnson. I think he's going to be

918
00:37:12,388 --> 00:37:13,628
Speaker 9: to do a lot with Kaylen Williams.

919
00:37:13,748 --> 00:37:14,148
Speaker 8: They're good.

920
00:37:14,188 --> 00:37:16,628
Speaker 9: They got wide receivers there, they got some defensive players,

921
00:37:16,948 --> 00:37:18,508
Speaker 9: but I always felt.

922
00:37:18,188 --> 00:37:20,108
Speaker 8: That they lacked in leadership. I think they got that

923
00:37:20,188 --> 00:37:20,588
Speaker 8: leader this.

924
00:37:20,588 --> 00:37:22,748
Speaker 2: Year, all right, Cincinnati Bengals.

925
00:37:22,788 --> 00:37:24,428
Speaker 3: Gosh, they've had a strange couple of years.

926
00:37:24,428 --> 00:37:27,868
Speaker 2: They got a great quarterback and Joe Burrow a dynamic

927
00:37:27,908 --> 00:37:30,948
Speaker 2: wide receiver duo, but their defense just cannot figure it out.

928
00:37:31,028 --> 00:37:33,228
Speaker 2: Mitch more So, are you going lights out again for

929
00:37:33,308 --> 00:37:34,068
Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Bank?

930
00:37:34,188 --> 00:37:35,428
Speaker 5: I know because it scared me and I have a

931
00:37:35,468 --> 00:37:38,988
Speaker 5: card on the lights on guy, and here's my lights

932
00:37:38,988 --> 00:37:43,148
Speaker 5: on Joe Burrow. In the back half of last season,

933
00:37:43,308 --> 00:37:45,548
Speaker 5: I don't think anyone wanted to play that Cincinnati Banks

934
00:37:46,068 --> 00:37:49,708
Speaker 5: if they can find a teeny bit of defense going

935
00:37:49,748 --> 00:37:52,428
Speaker 5: into any game there. I mean, I'm looking up his

936
00:37:52,548 --> 00:37:55,628
Speaker 5: yards four hundred yards, three hundred yards touchdowns, touch of course,

937
00:37:55,628 --> 00:37:57,908
Speaker 5: he's a quarterbacks nightmare, just holding on the ball, stroking it.

938
00:37:58,228 --> 00:37:59,788
Speaker 5: But that's just the kind of mentality you want. He's

939
00:37:59,828 --> 00:38:01,388
Speaker 5: going to make plays. And now you've got guys like

940
00:38:01,388 --> 00:38:04,628
Speaker 5: t Higgins and Jamar Chase locked up happy. Yes, that's

941
00:38:04,628 --> 00:38:06,988
Speaker 5: gonna go a long way. I think you you're going

942
00:38:07,028 --> 00:38:08,308
Speaker 5: to see them make a playoff.

943
00:38:07,948 --> 00:38:10,228
Speaker 2: Push such a brutal way to put it though where

944
00:38:10,228 --> 00:38:13,148
Speaker 2: You're just like, if they could find defense literally anywhere

945
00:38:13,188 --> 00:38:15,548
Speaker 2: in any game, I mean, they have to figure it out.

946
00:38:15,548 --> 00:38:18,268
Speaker 2: But you're keeping the lights on for the Cincinnati Bengals.

947
00:38:18,508 --> 00:38:21,988
Speaker 2: Will finally the Miami Dolphins talk about health of a

948
00:38:22,068 --> 00:38:24,388
Speaker 2: quarterback if tu I think of Iiloa can stay in there,

949
00:38:24,628 --> 00:38:26,748
Speaker 2: he's great. Tyreek Hill is keeping him out of the

950
00:38:26,748 --> 00:38:30,508
Speaker 2: top five of his quarterback list. It's uncomfortable offseason conversation.

951
00:38:30,868 --> 00:38:32,828
Speaker 2: Are you going lights out again for the Dolphins who

952
00:38:32,828 --> 00:38:33,988
Speaker 2: missed the playoffs last year?

953
00:38:34,068 --> 00:38:34,268
Speaker 8: Yeah?

954
00:38:34,308 --> 00:38:35,988
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, they had seasons of you know,

955
00:38:36,068 --> 00:38:38,948
Speaker 1: nine to eight, eleven to six, eight and nine.

956
00:38:39,028 --> 00:38:40,308
Speaker 6: Dolphins was explosive.

957
00:38:40,948 --> 00:38:43,588
Speaker 1: But I just feel like the way it's trending that

958
00:38:43,748 --> 00:38:46,828
Speaker 1: coach McDaniel is slowly losing this team, and so I'm going.

959
00:38:46,748 --> 00:38:48,268
Speaker 6: To go lights off this year.

960
00:38:48,428 --> 00:38:48,908
Speaker 3: Lights out?

961
00:38:48,988 --> 00:38:51,028
Speaker 6: Oh no, yeah, lights out this year?

962
00:38:51,548 --> 00:38:56,188
Speaker 9: Do it lights out?

963
00:38:56,748 --> 00:38:59,108
Speaker 1: You know, the Patriots, I mean made outstanding moves for

964
00:38:59,148 --> 00:39:01,868
Speaker 1: them to be competitive in this division again. And then

965
00:39:01,868 --> 00:39:04,908
Speaker 1: obviously Buffalo Bill's you know, Josh Allen is a man

966
00:39:04,948 --> 00:39:07,268
Speaker 1: on a mission, of course, and then the Jets obviously

967
00:39:07,348 --> 00:39:09,108
Speaker 1: to be determined. We do not know what's going on,

968
00:39:09,108 --> 00:39:11,028
Speaker 1: but right now what Miami is doing. I have no

969
00:39:11,108 --> 00:39:13,388
Speaker 1: idea what's going on there, and just based on all

970
00:39:13,428 --> 00:39:16,228
Speaker 1: the stuff that's going on. I just don't feel comfortable

971
00:39:16,548 --> 00:39:18,508
Speaker 1: for them being competitive in this division.

972
00:39:18,788 --> 00:39:20,628
Speaker 8: So lights out, Yeah, I think that was important he

973
00:39:20,668 --> 00:39:21,628
Speaker 8: said that. I believe that the same.

974
00:39:21,748 --> 00:39:24,308
Speaker 9: I think they're losing the team right now at that

975
00:39:24,388 --> 00:39:26,788
Speaker 9: coaching job, and I don't feel like he has that

976
00:39:26,868 --> 00:39:28,588
Speaker 9: demand that coaching.

977
00:39:28,428 --> 00:39:29,628
Speaker 8: To pull these guys back in.

978
00:39:29,708 --> 00:39:32,788
Speaker 9: You got a bunch of uncertainty, and it just seems

979
00:39:32,828 --> 00:39:34,788
Speaker 9: like this after this year, they're going to make a

980
00:39:34,828 --> 00:39:36,188
Speaker 9: decision on whether he's going to be there or not.

981
00:39:36,348 --> 00:39:37,788
Speaker 2: All right, put the lights back on. It's making me

982
00:39:37,828 --> 00:39:40,068
Speaker 2: uncomfortable in here. My goodness, aw want.

983
00:39:39,948 --> 00:39:44,348
Speaker 1: Some money, all right?

984
00:39:44,428 --> 00:39:46,388
