Unless it was real. Is that? Is 0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:38.880 that a problem? Is that something that? 0:02:39.240 --> 0:02:39.280 So? 0:02:39.480 --> 0:02:41.800 Listen, So I watched age the room. Maybe I'm just behind, 0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:42.720 Maybe I'm just behind. 0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:45.359 But obviously at the National Championship game, watching the game 0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:47.560 and they're, you know, getting ready to do the national 0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:48.720 anthem and all that stuff, right, and. 0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:51.079 They're doing a color guard. There was an alien. No, no, 0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:53.480 there's no alien. But listen, but check this out. So 0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:54.440 what are the branches of. 0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:59.239 The military of Army, Navy, Forum and Air Force? 0:02:59.480 --> 0:03:01.880 Space? For you? Missing one? Space force? Did you know 0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:04.919 that there's a freaking space force? Now it's relatively new. 0:03:05.040 --> 0:03:07.400 Why do we need a space force because there's aliens? 0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:11.440 There's a freaking branch space force. 0:03:11.560 --> 0:03:15.280 It's mostly because space like combat can go up into 0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:17.959 the into the That's what it is. 0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:28.079 Yeah, there's a legitimate for satellites, space force asteroids of course. Yeah, 0:03:28.240 --> 0:03:30.160 you gotta go bow up asteroids. That's why you need 0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:32.320 a whole force for that. Yeah, armageddi this is about 0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:34.360 to turn to Aaron Rodgers, Pat McAfee. That's what it's 0:03:34.360 --> 0:03:37.880 already turning in. I was, I was shocked. 0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:39.360 I was, I was. 0:03:39.560 --> 0:03:43.080 I couldn't believe it. Like the military, I mean, you 0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:45.960 didn't know about this, so I usually am. That's why 0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:47.680 I was asked another reason the vehicle. You know who 0:03:47.720 --> 0:03:49.920 else was shocked? The Washington offense apparently. 0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:53.400 Apparently, but Bro I told my son, I said, Bro, 0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:54.680 I said, I said, you gotta be a part of 0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:55.160 space Force. 0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:57.520 That's I need my son to do that. Thought you 0:03:57.600 --> 0:03:59.440 were going to say you were looking for application. 0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:03.880 No, I'm pretty sure I aged out that cyberstructure going 0:04:03.920 --> 0:04:04.640 to be in the space. 0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:07.000 For problem today you might have a free free fast 0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:09.360 my son. My son is smart enough to be in 0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:10.200 a Space Force, so I'm sure. 0:04:10.240 --> 0:04:11.520 Huh, he might be too tall for it. 0:04:12.480 --> 0:04:14.480 Can't be in space force if you're too what's the 0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:15.480 height limiteds. 0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:16.880 I don't know. For the Space Shuttle, I feel like 0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:18.640 for to be a fighter pilot. 0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:20.360 You can be no no no no, no no no. 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:22.839 We're talking about space shuttles. 0:04:22.839 --> 0:04:22.960 Bro. 0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:24.840 Yeah, but if you're an if you're in a jetty, 0:04:24.960 --> 0:04:25.880 can you get to that level? 0:04:25.920 --> 0:04:27.240 I mean, I will say there was a kid that 0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:29.120 you just go from just driving a car to now 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:31.320 I think there's any background of any type. 0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:32.600 Of Well, I'll kind of give you an answer here. 0:04:32.680 --> 0:04:34.360 There was a kid that I covered at my last job. 0:04:34.440 --> 0:04:37.000 He's actually the starting guard for the Texas Longhorns right now, 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:39.240 Hayden Connor. He wants to be an astronaut. It's like 0:04:39.320 --> 0:04:40.960 why he went to Texas. He's doing all these like 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:43.920 astro dynamics or whatever. He's like six foot four and 0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:46.280 like he's I asked him. I was like, can you 0:04:46.440 --> 0:04:48.320 go to space? He's like, yeah, yeah, they make things 0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:49.120 for like tall people. 0:04:49.360 --> 0:04:53.320 Okay, I have that answer. The minimum height it's four 0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:55.960 foot ten and a half inches. You got that one. 0:04:56.080 --> 0:05:03.680 The maximum height is six foot four. Wow. Wow he's back. 0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:06.880 I'm in the game baby anyway. So yeah, sorry, but 0:05:06.960 --> 0:05:09.159 I was. I was literally sitting there with my jaw dropped. 0:05:09.200 --> 0:05:11.680 I was like, Bro, there's the Space Force. This is awesome. 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:14.799 Well I'm going to take both of Isaiah's crazy questions 0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:18.839 to start this show, and I'm going to somehow relate 0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:23.240 it into this. This wild card matchup is out of 0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:25.520 this world between the Packers and the Cowboys. 0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:27.960 Give us the news and notes. I don't know how 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:28.360 I liked that. 0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:31.360 Okay, we'll start with the practice report coming off of yesterday, 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:34.159 the first day that the Packers and the Cowboys were 0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:36.640 on the practice field getting ready for uh what is it? 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:37.440 Oh, oh, my gosh. 0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:41.159 Okay, and to get ready for the wildcard game this week. 0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:45.200 So we can start with the Cowboys side notables. Stefan 0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:47.680 Gilmour did not practice with his shoulder injury yesterday. We 0:05:47.680 --> 0:05:50.000 talked to Mike McCarthy in the press conference. It sounds 0:05:50.040 --> 0:05:52.920 like they're going to try and rehab him today tomorrow 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:54.760 and then hopefully get him back on the field in 0:05:54.800 --> 0:05:57.840 time for Saturday. That plan in the past has kind 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:00.400 of left things questionable as far as guys playing. But 0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:02.359 you talked to Stefan gilmore you talk to anybody. 0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:04.240 The expectation is that he's playing on Sunday. 0:06:04.240 --> 0:06:06.360 So there's a little bit more confidence than there has 0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:09.120 been with previous guys that sit out Wednesday Thursday Friday. 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:13.560 Looking forward into the practice report, Jonathan Hankins was initially 0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:15.760 listed as did not practice, and I think it caused 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:18.560 kind of a concern, but the team came back and 0:06:18.600 --> 0:06:22.040 corrected that he was actually limited yesterday. Tyler Smith was 0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:25.840 back on the practice field yesterday, limited reps. He was 0:06:25.880 --> 0:06:27.840 there doing all the drills in the portion that the 0:06:27.920 --> 0:06:32.039 media saw inside the Ford Center yesterday. And then Zach 0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:34.320 Martin he was resting yesterday, but we did talk to 0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:36.640 Mike McCarthy. Sounds like he's good coming off of that 0:06:36.720 --> 0:06:38.320 flu and he should be ready to go this week. 0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:39.240 Okay. 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.080 Gilmore said that there's a good chance to play with 0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:44.760 one of those harnesses, which he's done before, so there'll 0:06:44.760 --> 0:06:48.240 be some limitation there, but he sounds like he's ready 0:06:48.279 --> 0:06:48.400 to go. 0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:52.760 That's a good thing to look at, and I think 0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:56.400 without Gilmore it's a significant drop off. 0:06:56.480 --> 0:06:58.880 We had that conversation a couple of days ago about 0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:02.400 who would you rather not have and what it would do. 0:07:03.080 --> 0:07:06.040 To have that top guy, that starter drop off and 0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:09.280 what the next replacement would be. Yeah, Stephan Gilmour to 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:12.160 na Sean right is the biggest drop off. And that's 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:14.480 nothing against Naeon right, but it's also a credit to 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:16.600 what Stephan Gilmore has done to this point. 0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:18.480 Well, speaking of six foot four, I did talk to 0:07:18.600 --> 0:07:20.640 Naean right in the locker room yesterday for a little bit, 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:23.160 just being like, are you preparing this week any differently, 0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:25.160 you know, just in case Gilmore can't go, and it's 0:07:25.240 --> 0:07:27.040 business as usual for him. If he can step in, 0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:29.080 he'll step in. He feels like he did really well 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:30.920 in the Commanders. He got good reviews coming off of 0:07:30.960 --> 0:07:32.760 that from the coaching staff or good grading I guess 0:07:33.240 --> 0:07:35.360 coming out from the coaching staff out of that second 0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:36.360 half against the Commanders. 0:07:36.440 --> 0:07:37.800 So take that for what it's worth. 0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:40.880 The Packer's side, the only real thing that I think 0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:43.040 should be looked at is aj Dillon is battling a 0:07:43.480 --> 0:07:47.800 knee or excuse me, a thumb and a neck injury. 0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:49.320 He did not practice yesterday. 0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:52.680 That'd be big if the Packers can't have that secondary 0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:54.480 back for Aaron Jones. I mean, Aaron Jones has been 0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:56.520 toting that thing quite a bit last three weeks, and 0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:58.600 he's been doing a good job of it. But having 0:07:58.640 --> 0:08:00.160 one less guy in that room would I be to 0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:02.520 be helpful towards the Cowboys run defense. 0:08:02.520 --> 0:08:02.880 Efforts. 0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:06.600 Mario in South Texas says the Cowboys have an alien. 0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:07.840 His name is Michael Parsons. 0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:11.240 Yeah, we see one every day. So yeah, he's walking 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:15.160 around the locker room for He wasn't though, an nfl 0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:16.800 p A All Pro though. 0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:19.920 Yeah, that's uh, that's kind of wild. A second year 0:08:19.960 --> 0:08:21.720 in a row he's not an nfl p A All Pro. 0:08:22.080 --> 0:08:25.240 So the nfl PA Players Association, they the players vote 0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:29.000 on quote unquote All pros. The actual All Pro list 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:32.679 is Friday a p from the AP. But uh, yeah, 0:08:32.760 --> 0:08:35.199 five Cowboys were on the list this year. Let me 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:36.400 see if I can ride a little off the look 0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:39.480 at the list with Ceedee Lamb, Tyler Smith, Deron Bland, 0:08:39.960 --> 0:08:42.120 Brandon Aubrey, and Zach Martin. 0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:44.920 So those were all five. That was pretty quick. He 0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:47.440 didn't have any hesitation. Yeah, I hesitated a little bit 0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:50.360 on Zach. That's okay, I give. 0:08:50.200 --> 0:08:50.400 It to you. 0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:53.520 Uh do you think that's any level of motivation for 0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:54.520 for Michael Parsons. 0:08:55.280 --> 0:08:58.600 No, for nfl P I will say though, like he's 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:00.720 he did say like two and a half three weeks ago, 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:02.959 he was like he was asked about some sort of 0:09:03.000 --> 0:09:04.839 a war that like the media it may be DIFFERENTI 0:09:04.880 --> 0:09:06.800 Player of the Year actually maybe because it was that 0:09:07.000 --> 0:09:09.079 stuff was kind of cooking up, and he was like, 0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:10.240 you know, at the end of the day, I don't 0:09:10.280 --> 0:09:11.760 really care. You know, what I do care about is 0:09:11.800 --> 0:09:14.280 the NFL Top one hundred because players vote on that. 0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:15.520 You know, I'll listen to the players. 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:17.719 And now I'm like, I'm curious, how long these days 0:09:17.800 --> 0:09:18.160 been for you? 0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:20.640 It's literally asked that last week. 0:09:20.720 --> 0:09:21.360 It was last week. 0:09:21.440 --> 0:09:22.080 It was last week. 0:09:22.200 --> 0:09:23.280 Wow, Like. 0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:28.240 Earlier in the season, I said, like a few weeks ago. 0:09:28.360 --> 0:09:30.520 Oh wow, Yeah, I have been to I have driven 0:09:30.600 --> 0:09:32.440 like forty five hours in the last week. It's been 0:09:32.559 --> 0:09:34.520 this last week. It's felt like two years. You know how, 0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:36.679 like every January feels like it's the longest month of 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:39.000 the year. I felt like I've already lived two months already, 0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:42.400 Like I am cooked. But any who should be March already. 0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:43.959 It should be like draft time. 0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:46.280 I'm okay with it taking a little bit of time. Yeah, 0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:48.040 I've got a busy March coming up. 0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:50.640 Same, I feel like we have to dive into this. 0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:52.520 I mean, all these coaching changes that have happened in 0:09:52.559 --> 0:09:53.520 the last twenty four hours. 0:09:53.600 --> 0:09:54.040 Talk about it. 0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:57.199 Yeah, Pete Carroll out in Seattle, Bill Belichick out in 0:09:57.240 --> 0:09:59.599 New England this morning, and you got to throw in 0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:01.440 Nick say even being out in Alabama. I know that's 0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:03.959 not NFL related, but that's huge news. All three of 0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:04.360 those guys. 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:07.160 It's a little NFL related because of how many players 0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:09.240 he's put into the NFL, and one of which is 0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:10.520 a cornerstone. 0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:12.240 Of your franchise, and he's right behind your right shoulder. 0:10:12.280 --> 0:10:13.120 And Trayvon Diggs. 0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:15.839 Yeah, yeah, so, but I think the one you have 0:10:15.960 --> 0:10:18.560 to look at in regards to the Cowboys is Pete 0:10:18.600 --> 0:10:21.000 Carroll being out in Seattle. You know, Dan Quinn obviously 0:10:21.040 --> 0:10:23.120 has a lot of connections to the Seahawks. He's already 0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:27.960 getting linked super quickly to that job. So yeah, yeah, 0:10:27.960 --> 0:10:30.040 I think this is This one's interesting. 0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:31.000 This one's interesting. 0:10:31.440 --> 0:10:33.600 Let's hear from the man who was recruited by Pete 0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:36.360 Carroll and has kept up with that Seattle franchise because 0:10:36.360 --> 0:10:37.160 it's his hometown. 0:10:38.960 --> 0:10:39.800 We talked about this. 0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:43.000 I don't want to say we talked about this months ago, 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:45.320 because John might say we talked about it last week, but. 0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:48.800 Ago, Hey, there's no reason to bring facts in this. 0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:52.880 No, we had a conversation about what it would take 0:10:53.760 --> 0:10:57.120 to really pull Dan Quinn away from this organization. 0:10:57.720 --> 0:10:59.320 Being there for the past two years, he. 0:10:59.480 --> 0:11:00.000 Was a couple of weeks. 0:11:00.320 --> 0:11:02.600 Yeah, he's been. He's been. He's been turning it down. 0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:07.199 He's been turning opportunities down and and nice, you know, 0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:10.120 pretty good opportunities over the past few seasons, you know, 0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:12.680 in terms of he's been the lead head coaching candidate 0:11:13.440 --> 0:11:15.920 across the league for the past two seasons. And we 0:11:16.040 --> 0:11:17.760 talked earlier and we I know, we kind of came 0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:20.320 to a consensus that, you know, the Chargers job would 0:11:20.320 --> 0:11:21.920 be hard for him to turn down, just because everything 0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:25.040 is seemingly in place personnel wise down there, offensively and 0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:27.079 defensively obviously, which is important to him. 0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:29.760 Solid D lines, you know, linebacker and secondary, all those 0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:30.319 guys are there. 0:11:31.080 --> 0:11:34.800 It's la But having conversations with DQ and knowing who 0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:38.040 DQ is, he doesn't. He genuinely hasn't had the urge 0:11:38.080 --> 0:11:42.280 to leave. But we did say if Seattle, I think 0:11:42.320 --> 0:11:43.800 we kind of just threw it out there. Seattle ever, 0:11:43.960 --> 0:11:46.520 I mean, Seattle Peek Carroll's going nowhere, but if Seattle 0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:48.560 ever popped up, that'd be the one man. 0:11:50.000 --> 0:11:51.840 Popped up Seattle, popped up there. 0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:51.960 And. 0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:57.280 I know John Schneider. I had a good relationship, a 0:11:57.360 --> 0:11:59.360 really good relationship with John Schneider at a GM down 0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:03.520 there and up there in Seattle. They don't make this 0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:08.240 move without knowing what their next move is already. They're 0:12:08.280 --> 0:12:09.560 not an organization that. 0:12:11.280 --> 0:12:11.559 They're not. 0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:15.200 They're a very calculated organization in terms of decision making. 0:12:16.520 --> 0:12:18.520 They know exactly how they feel, they know exactly the 0:12:18.600 --> 0:12:20.679 direction they want to go. Obviously you saw example of 0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:23.280 that most recently with Russell Wilson. They knew exactly what 0:12:23.400 --> 0:12:26.040 their plan was and they feel confident in it, and 0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:30.120 whether regardless of what everybody else thought. I don't believe 0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:33.560 that Coach Carroll steps aside and moves to the front 0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:37.360 office side of this of that organization without them knowing 0:12:37.480 --> 0:12:40.439 that the next person that is stepping in already is 0:12:40.520 --> 0:12:45.400 solidified and they can continue the culture that is that 0:12:45.600 --> 0:12:46.640 of the Seattle Seahawks. 0:12:47.160 --> 0:12:49.520 And I know people don't want to hear that. I 0:12:49.640 --> 0:12:51.559 hear it, and there's obviously I don't know. 0:12:51.760 --> 0:12:54.120 This is me just speaking from my experience from being 0:12:54.200 --> 0:12:56.280 in that building and having relationships with those people and 0:12:56.800 --> 0:12:59.160 knowing what that city is all about and that culture 0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:02.520 and that community everything right. They want to keep that culture. 0:13:02.559 --> 0:13:06.439 There's a very unique culture in Seattle, and there's only 0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:08.160 so many people who have had their hands on that 0:13:08.400 --> 0:13:11.320 who are in positions to take that take that position 0:13:11.400 --> 0:13:14.319 they have the head coach and continue that. And I 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:17.520 think that just my opinion, I think DQ is the 0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:20.640 only person that Coach Carroll wild step aside. 0:13:20.360 --> 0:13:22.760 For what about Nick saven No. 0:13:24.440 --> 0:13:29.920 Got to total opposite personality. That's that's just my genuine thought. 0:13:29.920 --> 0:13:32.600 I don't want to scare people. I don't want people 0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:34.360 to feel like I know more than everybody else in 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:35.880 terms of what dan Quinn's thinking. 0:13:36.040 --> 0:13:36.480 I don't. 0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:40.920 But I do know Coach Carroll, I do know John Schneider. 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:43.839 I do know the Seattle Seahawks in that city. It 0:13:43.840 --> 0:13:46.040 would take a lot for Coach Carroll to step aside 0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:48.360 and pass that off, to pass the torch off to somebody. 0:13:48.400 --> 0:13:49.800 They're not going to say, hey. 0:13:49.640 --> 0:13:51.400 Coach Carroll, all right, step aside, and they're be like, 0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:53.160 all right, now, let's figure out where we want to go. 0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:56.080 Let's see any meaning. That's not how they move now. 0:13:56.320 --> 0:13:58.480 I'd be surprised if dan Quinn is not the guy, 0:13:58.880 --> 0:14:02.959 I'd be super surprised. Yeah, yeah, so yeah, So it's 0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:04.640 it's it's that time of the hear man. 0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:09.200 And like Isaiah mentioned, we've had the conversation previously of Okay, 0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:11.720 he's still in Dallas for a reason. He has the pieces, 0:14:11.800 --> 0:14:14.319 he wants to wait for the right opportunity. You could 0:14:14.400 --> 0:14:15.400 argue there's two right. 0:14:15.679 --> 0:14:16.679 Opportunities right now. 0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:19.720 You've got a loaded Seattle team that just pretty much 0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:23.640 needs a solidified future quarterback, and then you're you're cooking 0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:26.560 with gas. And then you've got the Chargers who have 0:14:26.680 --> 0:14:28.600 their solidified future quarterback. 0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:29.480 They just need some pieces around it. 0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:32.080 And then you've got two spots that you could say 0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:33.800 that fits dan Quinn's mold. 0:14:34.000 --> 0:14:35.120 You don't think New England's in there. 0:14:36.320 --> 0:14:38.160 They've got a lot of long, longer way to go. 0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:42.680 I think with I think with what Belichick leaves behind 0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:47.200 in terms of a history and a lore of the franchise. 0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:49.360 It's always going to be in the conversation. But I 0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:51.720 don't know, just roster wise, I don't think they're up 0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:53.760 there with those other two. What do you think about that? 0:14:54.640 --> 0:14:56.680 I think Robert Crafts hired two a coaches and it's 0:14:56.720 --> 0:14:59.240 been peek carrolln Bill Belichick them, I'm just gonna bad 0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:00.960 that he probably heres a decent coach this. 0:15:01.000 --> 0:15:02.200 Time, pretty solid coach. 0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:05.280 I think New England is a lot more attractive than 0:15:05.480 --> 0:15:07.080 a lot of those jobs that were open last year. 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:09.000 So that's the only reason I throw it in there. 0:15:09.040 --> 0:15:10.200 Do you think it's a build? 0:15:10.280 --> 0:15:12.320 But yeah, do you think it's as attractive as Los 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:13.600 Angeles or Seattle? 0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:18.520 Maybe not? Not even just for for dan Quinn specifically. 0:15:18.720 --> 0:15:22.080 Just one's tough because obviously they have the franchise quarterback, 0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:24.480 They've got a lot around. 0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:26.080 People really care about the Chargers. 0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:30.880 That's building with somebody else that I don't know, if 0:15:30.920 --> 0:15:33.760 they're just New England papers. Just what Bill has helped 0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:36.640 build it to, yep, is on such a level where man, 0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:39.360 that's that that's a good that's a great job. 0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:41.440 I know that it needs some retooling in that, but 0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:43.280 that's a that's a great job. 0:15:43.320 --> 0:15:44.400 I don't want to bring it. There's a couple of 0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:46.320 things that people don't really at least from the outside. 0:15:46.320 --> 0:15:48.560 I would imagine most fans don't really take into account 0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:51.800 when they're thinking about positions being field. One of which 0:15:51.880 --> 0:15:56.360 is culture, which is obviously I'm big on. I was 0:15:56.440 --> 0:15:58.800 able to have more insight on dan Quinn coming into 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:00.960 the Cowboys and commony there from me some years back 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:03.600 because I knew the type of culture that he came 0:16:03.680 --> 0:16:06.400 from in Seattle, and I knew the type of energy 0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:07.520 he had and how he was going to be a 0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:11.920 culture changer, and that's what he's been. People don't need 0:16:12.000 --> 0:16:14.520 to take that into account in terms of potential fits. 0:16:14.760 --> 0:16:16.840 And then you have to take into account the stability 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:20.480 of the management, all right, the stability of the front office. 0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:23.000 What does that front office look like when you're a 0:16:23.120 --> 0:16:25.040 coach that's going to step out of something that's very 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:27.800 comfortable and you're going to step into another situation where 0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:30.000 you're now the guy and everybody's looking at you. The 0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:32.040 people that you have to work with that wear the 0:16:32.120 --> 0:16:35.880 suits or jar or hoodies, whatever they decide to wear. Okay, 0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:39.720 the track, Yeah, those that's very important because you have 0:16:39.840 --> 0:16:41.920 to You don't want to walk into a situation where 0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:43.560 you're trying to figure out if this is the relationship 0:16:43.560 --> 0:16:46.120 is going to work. That's why another reason why I 0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:48.280 say that Seattle is very difficult for him to turn 0:16:48.320 --> 0:16:51.720 down because he knows that organization, he knows the ownership 0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:56.640 group there obviously obviously you know the ownership is now 0:16:57.120 --> 0:16:58.120 passed off to the family. 0:16:58.880 --> 0:17:01.600 But you know there, he's not going anywhere. 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:03.680
