1
00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. We spent a lot of time yesterday talking

3
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 1: about the Jags, Urban Meyer, Trevor Lawrence, Gardner, Minshew, and

4
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 1: Urban made an official He named Trevor Lawrence as he's starter.

5
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: The Broncos are gonna go with Teddy Bridgewater. The Bears

6
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 1: are going to start Andy Dalton. The Saints haven't officially

7
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 1: made a decision yet, but that should be forthcoming. And

8
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: then there's Mac Jones in New England. I guess you

9
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 1: can throw in Trey Lance. But listen to Jimmy Garoppolo

10
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 1: being asked about basically who's starting at quarterback for the

11
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: forty nine ers, Kyl said he had a pretty good idea.

12
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: We dude, to start a quarterback for a week one?

13
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: Do you have a pretty good idea? Oh? Yeah, I

14
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: have a pretty good idea. He was smiling about it.

15
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 1: One must mean supping, right, that's whatever he decides. Yeah,

16
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 1: I have a pretty good idea. I'm pretty happy with

17
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 1: where I'm at right now and everything and just the

18
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: offense as a whole. Yeah, Kyle's the head man who

19
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: at a call. Yeah, the call has already been made.

20
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 1: It's Jimmy Garoppolo. If he was crying when he was

21
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: there asking when he was asked the question, then we'd

22
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,199
Speaker 1: go he's probably gonna be Trey Lance. But big smile

23
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: on his face and he realizes he is the future now,

24
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: but he's not going to be the future after this season.

25
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 1: They traded a lot to get Trey Lance. It's not

26
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,559
Speaker 1: like you go, you know, on second thought, we're gonna

27
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 1: keep Jimmy g Jimmy Garoppolo is a good quarterback for

28
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers. Is he a great quarterback in

29
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: today's NFL? No, he's not. I know he wins games. Well,

30
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: he's quarterbacking the Patriots and he's quarterbacking the forty nine Ers.

31
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: Those are really good teams. I don't know if we

32
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: put him on Jacksonville or the Texans, we would go, Yeah,

33
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: he just wins games. Jimmy Garoppolo learned at the feet

34
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 1: of Tom Brady. He's not gonna beat you with anything

35
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: that's amazing, but it's more of a steady drip. That's

36
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: the water torture that he would provide Trey Lance. That's

37
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: the guillotine where he can all of a sudden go

38
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw it deep or I can beat you

39
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: with my legs. We have wishful reporting. I talk about

40
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: this a lot in this business. It's we want to

41
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 1: push something so we have something to talk about. Andy

42
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: Dalton was going to start in week one Trevor Lawrence

43
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: with Gardner Minshew. I thought urban Meyer would maybe go

44
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: with Gardner Minshew, just based on that offensive line with

45
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:28,359
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, the offensive philosophy that you have in Jacksonville,

46
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: and you bring in Trevor Lawrence with a whole lot

47
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 1: of expectation there. I said to you that Teddy Bridgewater

48
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 1: was going to get the start, told you that two

49
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: weeks ago Drew Locke. Drew Locke can give it and

50
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: take it the way. He's got a lot of potential,

51
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 1: he's got a big arm. But Teddy Bridgewater is going

52
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 1: to give you something steady. That's all. It's just a

53
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 1: safer pick for the Broncos. And I do think the

54
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: Bronchos have a lot of talent the wide receiving corps,

55
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 1: which you might not take advantage of with Teddy's arm

56
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 1: as opposed to Drew Locke. But this is about let's

57
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: just stay in games. Let's not lose games. Here, Mac

58
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: Jones in New England is the interesting one. Our good buddy,

59
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: Tom Curran, writing today he's NBC Sports Boston. He says

60
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: that basically mac Jones should be the starter for the

61
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: New England Patriots when quote, doing what's best for the

62
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: football team is the stated objective of every decision. You

63
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: can contort yourself, so any choice is defensible in the

64
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: long term or short term. If the standard to be

65
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 1: satisfied was the best players play, we wouldn't have this

66
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 1: discussion anymore. He finishes his column, Tom Curran saying on Wednesday,

67
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: Mac Jones all but rested his case. The time remaining

68
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: for Cam Newton's closing argument has been frittered away. Further

69
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 1: questions question mark none Here We'll talk to Chris Simms

70
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: about that, as mac Jones done enough and with Cam

71
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: Newton not being able to practice for five days, mac

72
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: Jones getting all the reps with the starters, and at

73
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 1: least according to Tom Kern, he's seen enough. Mac Jones

74
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,359
Speaker 1: is your starter, yes, Pauline. How much do you factor

75
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 1: in your chance to compete for the Super Bowl with

76
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: your starting quarterback like the Patriots? Even a percentage chance

77
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: of a Super Bowl contender. Sure, yeah, Okay, they got

78
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 1: don't have a good defense, it's a very good offensive line.

79
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: They have a lot of running backs. I don't know

80
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,359
Speaker 1: about their skill position guys. They did go out in

81
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: the offseason and pick up a couple of tight ends,

82
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 1: but this to me feels like a Belichick offense. And

83
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: I do think they can win with Cam Newton. It's

84
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 1: just can he stay healthy? And do you know what

85
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: you're getting week to week? With Mac Jones? You know

86
00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: exactly what you're getting absolutely, and it's he's not one

87
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: of those well he's not very athletic like he's. It

88
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: always feels like when you talk about Mac Jones, he's

89
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: not very boom fill in the blank, but he is.

90
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: He's a lot of things that you want in a

91
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: quarterback by all accounts. Very decisive, takes command, good arm,

92
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: has athleticism. But you feel like whenever you hear his name, yeah,

93
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 1: but he's not very what he is Tom Brady, I mean,

94
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: that's that's what you drafted. You're not getting somebody who

95
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 1: is going to overwhelm you athletically. Cam has that athleticism,

96
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 1: not what he had when he won the MVP, and

97
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 1: can you win with him, yes, but Cam out with

98
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,239
Speaker 1: you know, COVID protocol. You know, maybe he did cost

99
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 1: himself the chance to start this year. Plus understand this,

100
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 1: if you're a Patriots fan, you're the only team that

101
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: reached out to Cam Newton when nobody else wanted him.

102
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: You brought him in. And I thought that he did okay,

103
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: he certainly ran well, but you know, having shoulder surgery,

104
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: it's tricky. You don't have good wide receivers first year

105
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: in the offense with Belichick, Patriot fans are looking at

106
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 1: Mac Jones saying, that's our guy, Like, Cam's not your guy.

107
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: Cam was the guy to help you before you got

108
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: to the guy that you think is your future. That's

109
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: what's going on in New England right now, and is

110
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 1: Mac Jones the starter. I'd be surprised if Belichick goes

111
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: with a rookie to start, But if he's seen enough

112
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: then he said all along, it's Cam Newton. And that's

113
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 1: what I was curious about. When Tom Kerrn is watching

114
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 1: practice and Mac Jones is carving everybody up that you go,

115
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: that's my guy. I'm going to start him now? Like

116
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: is that what it's going to come down to? Was

117
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 1: it just one of those moments where Belichick goes, I

118
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 1: can't I can't go with Cam. I gotta go with

119
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: the kid. And maybe that is, but it was wishful reporting.

120
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: With the other quarterback situations, Justin Fields is going to

121
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 1: eventually start, Trey Lance will eventually start, Trevor Lawrence is

122
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:14,239
Speaker 1: starting now, Zach Wilson is starting now. There's nothing that's changed.

123
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: New England could be changing right now. That's the news.

124
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: The other stuff that was just window dressing. That was

125
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: just let's have some talking points here. We got some

126
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: time to fill what's going on in New England. I

127
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: think it's real, but I'd still be surprised if Belichick

128
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 1: goes with Mac Jones. I have no intel. I have

129
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 1: no sources with New England. I don't know anything. I'm

130
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: not hearing sources close to No, I don't have any

131
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: of that. I tell you when I have a source,

132
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: and I tell you when I don't have a source.

133
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 1: I don't have anything in New England. But I do

134
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: trust Tom Curran. But I do think Tom Curran has

135
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: not exactly been a Cam Newton cheerleader, and I think

136
00:07:56,440 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: he's probably going Mac is our guy. Yes, McLevin. I've

137
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 1: heard the comparison when Balichick chose Tom Brady over drew

138
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: Bledsoe Brady early in his career, slow and steady, not spectacular, Bledsoe, big,

139
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 1: strong armed. But that analogy doesn't quite work, does it

140
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: not in this situation. I mean Bledsoe got injured, Yeah,

141
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: but then he could have gone back to him. He

142
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 1: went back to him in the title game. Yeah, and

143
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: he chose Brady, who wasn't Brady. Wasn't Brady early right?

144
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 1: He was more. Go back to that Super Bowl when

145
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 1: you know, the great John Madden is saying, hey, basically,

146
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: with Brady inexperienced, they're going to be playing for overtime

147
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: in that game against the Rams, and Brady in a

148
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,959
Speaker 1: two minute drill is throwing passes and you could almost

149
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: hear John Madden going I'm shocked, I'm surprised, And then

150
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 1: Vinetarry kicks the field goal to win a Super Bowl.

151
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: In that moment, it was like, hey, just don't screw

152
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: things up, or at least that's what we thought of

153
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 1: with Tom Brady. I remember after that Super Bowl I

154
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: didn't see enough greatness in Brady where I went, is

155
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 1: he really their future? Like is he going to be great?

156
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: And I remember asking analysts who joined us that Monday

157
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: after the Super Bowl because I didn't see it, and

158
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden it crystallized and you had

159
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 1: analysts saying, oh, no, no, no, he's going to be great. Well,

160
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 1: you gave Drew Bledsoew one hundred million dollars. I don't

161
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 1: know when you saw it with Brady, but you probably

162
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 1: didn't see it sooner. Where you're offering Bled If Bledsoew

163
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 1: doesn't get injured, what happens in this situation? I gets

164
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: It's crazy. How if Trent Green doesn't get hurt, the

165
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: Kurt Warner's story may never happen. Right. If Peyton Manning

166
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: doesn't injure his neck, then where does Andrew luck Goo?

167
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 1: Is he still playing? Now? Does Peyton get another? They're

168
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 1: super Bowl? Like? It's crazy how this stuff happens. Yes?

169
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: Do you think Drew Bledsoe and Trent Green could have

170
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:14,079
Speaker 1: gone on to win Super Bowls with those teams around them? Probably? So?

171
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean Drew Bledsoe was a really good

172
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 1: quarterback and and Trent Green was good enough to be

173
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 1: starting over Kurt Warner. Trent Green was a very capable.

174
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 1: Doesn't sound like a compliment, but Trent Green could lead

175
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 1: your team to the super Bowl, and he did have

176
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: a moment where he was very impressive. Yes, I went

177
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: back to two thousand and one after Bledsoe got hurt

178
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 1: in Game two and Brady took over. His first two games.

179
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 1: Brady his first three games, he had no touchdown passes.

180
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 1: He didn't play poorly, he just didn't score. He had

181
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:55,959
Speaker 1: no interceptions. His fourth game as a starter was against Indianapolis. Indianapolis,

182
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: he beat Peyton Manning thirty eight seventeen with three touchdowns,

183
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: no picks, and outdueled Manning. And you could see the

184
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 1: articles nationally and locally, maybe the Patriots have found something.

185
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 1: But the first four weeks it was like mixed reviews.

186
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: Yeah soon, and that trend would continue itself over the

187
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 1: next twenty years, which was just wonderful to watch. Never stop.

188
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 1: There are so many analysts who cover the NFL, and

189
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 1: there are so many of us that don't know anything.

190
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: Remember when Lamar Jackson was coming out, right, there was

191
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: a curiosity and that you would hear accuracy issues. Okay,

192
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 1: we didn't focus on what he did well, we focused

193
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: on what he didn't do well, and it drives me crazy,

194
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: especially with basketball players. Steph Curry, Yeah slight. He can't

195
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: play point okay, can he shoot? Yeah, he can shoot.

196
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: Steve Nash, that guy he can't start. Oh, they're gonna domit.

197
00:11:54,240 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: He can't guard anybody? Can he pass? Patrick Mahomes I

198
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 1: look at the look at the profile here, didn't win

199
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 1: a lot of games. You know. Yeah, he takes chances. Project.

200
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:16,199
Speaker 1: You would hear he's a project. Okay. That's why when

201
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: it comes to this, we don't know mac Jones man,

202
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: he only played one year system quarterback here. That guy

203
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: not athletic, didn't have a big arm like we okay,

204
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:34,319
Speaker 1: like we talk ourselves into things and out of things here. Yes,

205
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: I just remember a dad Bob mac Jones. That was

206
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: that was the headline. Yeah, Like Zack Wilson threw a

207
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: role left throwback right fifty yard or in you know,

208
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: his pro day and we went, oh my god, he's

209
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 1: the next Patrick Mahomes Is he? I don't know, Yeah, Polly,

210
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: I just went back to Brady's first playoffs. You were

211
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: talking about how you weren't sure after the first playoffs,

212
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 1: which they want a super Bowl, by the way, his

213
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: first three playoff games, he had one touchdown passing three games,

214
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 1: he had one pick. His stats were, you know, not

215
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,760
Speaker 1: that great, They're average. That's why you know when somebody

216
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: gives you that stamp of approval, Okay, when do you

217
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: give that? And I go back to Josh Allen, he's

218
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 1: never won. I give you go back to high school.

219
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: He got very very few scholarship offers. He went to

220
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 1: a junior college. He wasn't great. He went to Wyoming.

221
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: I don't even know if he was first team All

222
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 1: conference when he was at Wyoming Mountain West. I think

223
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 1: he was second team All Mountain West. And that's why

224
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 1: I had been told the Browns were interested in Josh Allen.

225
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 1: But that was his smoke screen. They were drafting Baker Mayfield,

226
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: which they did. Buffalo gets Josh Allen. And I remember

227
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,559
Speaker 1: watching Josh Allen his rookie year and I said, he

228
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 1: doesn't know how to play the position right now, and

229
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:59,079
Speaker 1: he didn't and even the next year, last year, I

230
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,679
Speaker 1: thought he should have been MVP. Like if you look

231
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: at value to your team, Aaron Rodgers was unbelievable. Josh

232
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: Allen was a difference maker for a team that another

233
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 1: quarterback in there would not have led them as far

234
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,559
Speaker 1: as he did, just in my opinion. That's why when

235
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 1: it comes to Josh Allen, you got a big arm here, Okay,

236
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: they all have big arms. It's hard to play the

237
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: position if you go you know, he's got a small arm.

238
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: That dude, he's got a noodle for an arm. Like

239
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: most of these guys, good size, some athleticism, got a

240
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: great arm, Okay, And that's why when it comes to

241
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: trying to handicap this, it's really difficult. Trey Lance has

242
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 1: played one football game in twenty months. I don't know

243
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: if he can play the position. Do I like the kid?

244
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 1: Does he have a lot of talent? Yes, Easton Stick

245
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 1: had a lot of talent at North Dakota State. That's

246
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: why when it comes to trying to handicap this, good luck.

247
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 1: That's why you have so many bust at that position

248
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 1: in the NFL, because it's hard to quantify what is

249
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 1: going to make you great. Everybody passed on Tom Brady

250
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: a couple of times. People passed on Russell Wilson a

251
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 1: couple of times. It's a great unknown. It's what's fascinating

252
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: about that position. Be sure to catch the live edition

253
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 1: of The Dan Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern

254
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 1: six am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio in the iHeart

255
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 1: Radio a app. Well, let me start there with Chris Simms. Chris,

256
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: whose career would you rather have, Ryan Fitzpatrick's or Jay Cutler. Well, man,

257
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: that's a tough one. I mean, you know, I guess

258
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: I come and let me just go through this with

259
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: my thought a little bit. You know, Cutler had certainly

260
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: more high end talent and did bring a team to

261
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 1: an NFC championship game, There's no doubt about that. But

262
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: I guess I'd also look at it and go, Damn,

263
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 1: I'm better than what my career ended up really being.

264
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: I should have had more success. So I think, you know,

265
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go

266
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: with Ryan Fitzpatrick. I am, I'm gonna It's a close

267
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 1: one there, but I'll go with Fitzpatrick. You know, I

268
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: just give him a lot of credit for the fact

269
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 1: that he's hung around, you know, and really beat the doubters,

270
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 1: and he's had some good moments and played some of

271
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: his best football here at the end of his career.

272
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 1: I would say Ryan Fitzpatrick because he's an underdog, whereas right,

273
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: Cutler we look at and we go and I remember

274
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: you loved Cutler coming out of college, like right, and

275
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 1: you liked him more than any of those quarterbacks, I believe, right, Yeah,

276
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: remember that. That was one of my first proclamations. I think.

277
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 1: What was that when I was like a weekly guest

278
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: and I was down there in Tampa, right, and you

279
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: were like, so who do you take Matt Leinard or

280
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: Vince Young? And I was like, neither, you take Jay Cutler? Right?

281
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 1: So I do. I remember that very clearly, and I

282
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: took some heat from some of my Texas friends that

283
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: day when I said that Cutler feels like an underachiever

284
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: where Ryan Fitzpatrick feels like an overachiever. Agreed, Agreed, I'm

285
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 1: with you there all the way? All right? Has mac

286
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: Jones earned the starting job in New England? Tom Curran

287
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 1: was gushing about this that Cam's been out, Mac Jones

288
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: has been in and has looked very impressive. Knowing Bill

289
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 1: Belichick having spent some time there, could you imagine Belichick

290
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: going with a rookie quarterback to start week one? I mean,

291
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 1: I think before training camp I would have aired a

292
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 1: no to that, But like, I think Mac Jones has

293
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: impressed so much and been so good through training camp,

294
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 1: everything he does on and off the field that I do,

295
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 1: and the fact that they kind of praise them, you know,

296
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: praise him as well. I don't think they're scared. I don't.

297
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 1: I think in the perfect world they'd probably rather go

298
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 1: with Cam Newton. But I mean, I still can't believe

299
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 1: what Cam Newton did. I don't know other way to

300
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: say it. I'm shocked. I mean, his career is hanging

301
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 1: in the balance, and to make a mistake like that

302
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 1: and do that, it's just unforgivable. And as you know,

303
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: and anybody knows, it's the Patriots, they're like psycho detailed.

304
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 1: Then now you got a guy where he's not vaccinated

305
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 1: and you're not sure if you can trust them. And

306
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: then he got this other guy who's like a robot

307
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: and kind of like Tom Brady ish, and he continues

308
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 1: just to get better and better and been very impressive

309
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 1: in the preseason. So yeah, I think there's a chance.

310
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 1: And if he balls out this weekend, Dan and I

311
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,120
Speaker 1: don't know if Cam will play or not this weekend now,

312
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: but if Mac goes out there and plays phenomenal. I

313
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: would not be shocked if they just pulled the trigger

314
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: and started the Mac Jones era. I know that. To

315
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 1: your co host, Mike Florio brought this up about the

316
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 1: Jags that maybe they were waiting to name the starting

317
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: quarterback because maybe everbend Meyer wanted to go with Gardner Minshew,

318
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 1: because maybe he didn't like what he saw with that

319
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 1: offensive line for Trevor Lawrence. He has since named Trevor Lawrence.

320
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:51,959
Speaker 1: I follow Florio's philosophy here. I don't want to put

321
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence out there and have him become another Andrew Luck.

322
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: I want to make sure that there is that I'm

323
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,879
Speaker 1: going to protect him. He might not make good decisions.

324
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 1: I want him protected at all cost. And that's what

325
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: would be my big concern. Yeah, your thoughts on Trevor

326
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 1: Lawrence getting to start. Oh yeah, yeah, I'm with you there.

327
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 1: I mean that that is a concern. It's something that

328
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,119
Speaker 1: we talked about a lot on Monday. You know. I

329
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 1: brought out up with Florio and I was like, listen,

330
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a real competition here, Like Trevor

331
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 1: is way better than Gardner Minshew. I mean, maybe doesn't

332
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,719
Speaker 1: have quite the experience yet in those things, but the

333
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: talent is that's not comparable. But you know so I

334
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,919
Speaker 1: thought like maybe that's and he listened to the Monday

335
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: Night crew, right they were kind of saying some things

336
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: like that, and I thought, oh, okay, so this is

337
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 1: more about getting the team in the right place. It

338
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: really has nothing to do with a true competition, I

339
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 1: think really ultimately, Urban Meyer, Hey, I know he's adjusting

340
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 1: to life in the NFL and all those things, but

341
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 1: damn he's still really smart understands football, and I think

342
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 1: he'll play a certain way to protect Trevor Lawrence. You know,

343
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 1: I said today on the show today the phrase I used,

344
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 1: you said, Andrew Luck. I said, don't Joe Burrow Trevor Lawrence,

345
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,880
Speaker 1: don't do that. Don't have him drop back forty five

346
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,360
Speaker 1: times a game at all. We gotta win, even though

347
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 1: we know we're not gonna be in the playoffs. We

348
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: gotta go for five and eleven, Like, who the hell

349
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 1: cares if you're five and eleven or three and thirteen, right,

350
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,680
Speaker 1: like save the franchise. And they didn't do that in Cincinnati.

351
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: And you know I heard the other night too, urban

352
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 1: Meyer talked to Joe Burrow in the off season, so

353
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 1: that's in his mind, and I think he'll do the

354
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,919
Speaker 1: right thing here and realize the big picture and not

355
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 1: fall into the trap of, oh, we're losing. I just

356
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 1: gotta let Trevor loose and let him try to carry

357
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 1: the team. I don't think. I think he's too smart

358
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 1: to see the big picture. There has John Elway whipped

359
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 1: on another quarterback. I don't know if he's whipped. I'm

360
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,479
Speaker 1: not gonna say that yet. About Drew Locke, there's some

361
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 1: things I like. He played better towards the end of

362
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 1: last year. I think, you know, when you take a

363
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: few things into account here, Vic fangio he's a defensive

364
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:56,119
Speaker 1: head coach. They usually aeron let's go with the safer quarterback.

365
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 1: Let's go with the quarterback that's not gonna mess it

366
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:02,200
Speaker 1: up for my defense. George Peyton the GM, he came

367
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,680
Speaker 1: from Minnesota, he was there when they drafted Teddy. And

368
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 1: I think, ultimately, you know, Drew Locke, I think scarred

369
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 1: Vic fangioe a little bit last year with some of

370
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 1: the bad decisions, reckless throws things like that, to where

371
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: Teddy is the safe bet. You know, I don't know

372
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: if Teddy can maximize the talent of the offense quite

373
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,359
Speaker 1: the way Drew Locke ken, but I think, you know,

374
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 1: I understand his logic here with going with the proven

375
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 1: veteran who knows how to protect the football and is

376
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: not going to mess things up early on in the

377
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 1: year and kind of get them behind the eight ball.

378
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 1: If that doesn't go well, then you bring the flamethrower,

379
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,879
Speaker 1: you know, off the bench and go, Okay, we need you,

380
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 1: We need you to make some plays and do those

381
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 1: type of things. And Locke has looked very good in

382
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: the preseason. It feels like every year we get mixed

383
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: opinions on preseason, like don't read too much into preseason,

384
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 1: and then we ultimately read too much into preseason. How

385
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 1: important is like a preseason game to a regular season game.

386
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 1: How different is it at the quarterbacking position. Sure, it's

387
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 1: a lot different. I think the biggest thing it's just

388
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:11,399
Speaker 1: more there. It's just it's elementary for I think some

389
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 1: of the start, you know, you're not going to unveil

390
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:17,120
Speaker 1: some of your best plays. There's really no game planning like, hey,

391
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 1: this team does this, so we're gonna attack them like that.

392
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 1: You're kind of just like, hey, we got to go

393
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 1: out here and work on what we gotta work on

394
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,199
Speaker 1: and do that, and you don't want to show too

395
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 1: much for their you know, and have team to be

396
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: ready in the regular season. The defenses of the same way.

397
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 1: You know, you don't get to see a lot of

398
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 1: exotic variety type defenses in the preseason and then it

399
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 1: slowly starts to progress where you're gonna see a little

400
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,719
Speaker 1: bit more of that this weekend. So yeah, you're right,

401
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 1: you don't read too much into it, but there's certainly

402
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: some things that you can take from preseason to go, oh,

403
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: that team, Like let's say the Miami Dolphins, Right, I'll

404
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: just use them as an example. What are they two

405
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: and oh in the preseason. I don't really care what

406
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 1: their record is. I just look at them and go, man,

407
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 1: the way that team looks like it. They got depth

408
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 1: on the front line, they got depth in the front seven,

409
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 1: they got speed at the right positions. Two was improved.

410
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 1: So that gives me the inkling at least to say like, hey,

411
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say they're going to the playoffs, but

412
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 1: they're going to be right in the thick of things,

413
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 1: and you know, are going in the right direction. He's

414
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:20,480
Speaker 1: Chris Simms, Pro Football Talk co host. Former NFL quarterback

415
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford says, Hey, I want to play in big games,

416
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: and I don't want to be playing at one o'clock

417
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: on a Sunday. Well, how much of that is on

418
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford? That like, he didn't win a playoff game.

419
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 1: We look at the quarterback, and you know, you're supposed

420
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: to elevate your team. I know he didn't elevate his team. Well,

421
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,919
Speaker 1: let's see, I'll disagree a little bit there. I mean

422
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 1: the fact that they were even in the playoffs at

423
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: some of those years, they were only there because of

424
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 1: Matt Stafford. You know. And again I think we've talked

425
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,679
Speaker 1: about this before. Let's not forget horrible call in the

426
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: Dallas playoff game right with the pass interference late or

427
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 1: whatever the damn penalty is that they called. There can't

428
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: remember these specifics. They were kind of in the league.

429
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 1: That was a controversial call. You know. The other year

430
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,959
Speaker 1: they went to what Seattle in a wildcard game one

431
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 1: year and playing the playoffs there, receivers dropped the ball.

432
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 1: I mean, go back and watch it. So the team

433
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,119
Speaker 1: has failed him to a degree and a lot of

434
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 1: these years Dan where I'll always argue to defend where

435
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 1: they were maybe seven and nine or six and ten.

436
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 1: I wanted to go like they would be two and

437
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: fourteen if it wasn't for Matthew Stafford. No thousand yard

438
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:31,679
Speaker 1: rusher since what two and twelve? You know, no offensive line,

439
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 1: no namesake defensive guy. You can come up within the

440
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford ever, other than Sue early on in his

441
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: career to go, oh wait, they did have one good

442
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: defensive guy his whole era there. Oh wait, they did

443
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: have Calvin Johnson. Okay, they've had three people in like

444
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,480
Speaker 1: ten years. What would he do? What is he supposed

445
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 1: to do with that? So I'm a defender of him,

446
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 1: But I know I'm gonna be watching this year too,

447
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:54,879
Speaker 1: because it's gonna be a big year. He's got at

448
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 1: least some talent in the system around him here that

449
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 1: he should be able to maybe shut some the haters up. Well,

450
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:04,439
Speaker 1: I was on the bandwagon probably before anybody's saying if

451
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: you're looking for an MVP candidate, this is this is

452
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: the guy. And but I wonder about that, You know,

453
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 1: you lose cam Akers is Sony Michelle an upgrade. No,

454
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 1: absolutely not. He is not, Sony Michelle. I mean I

455
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 1: listen that that was. It's a risky trade and in

456
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,679
Speaker 1: my opinion to a degree. You know, first off, he's

457
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,239
Speaker 1: a first round pick in New England's trade in him away, right,

458
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: there's something they don't they don't like, right, and you know, anything,

459
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: you know Rams pick up nikkil Harry, then I'm gonna

460
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 1: worry about that way, Yeah, exactly right. But they're desperate,

461
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 1: you know, because you know, like you're saying, you know,

462
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 1: it's their run game is important to their success. That's

463
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 1: how that that's really what you know. Their offense is

464
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,440
Speaker 1: based around that, and then the bootlegs and the play

465
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,879
Speaker 1: actions and the speed sweeps all come off of that.

466
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 1: So they they I think, you know, the one thing

467
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 1: I always give the Rams credit for it. They push

468
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: the chips in the middle of the pile every year

469
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 1: and go, we're going for it. We're trying to win

470
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. We don't care. We're not going to

471
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 1: Eton or Eton nine or with nine and eight or

472
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: anything like that. We are going for it. So but

473
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:08,639
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle, I mean, knee issues. Anybody I talked to

474
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,119
Speaker 1: in the NFL thinks it's not going away. There's a

475
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 1: real issue there. But I would expect them to sign

476
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 1: another running back or two here when cuts are made,

477
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 1: you know, to bolster that group all together. If Belichick

478
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 1: is calling you and he wants to trade you somebody,

479
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,439
Speaker 1: yeah right, you better be like what we need to

480
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 1: do extra homework than normal, because I will say this,

481
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 1: Belichick is really good at getting rid of players a

482
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,439
Speaker 1: year early than a year less. He may not be

483
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 1: great at drafting players, certainly in the first round and

484
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: skill position players. But you know when it's hey, I

485
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 1: got Richard Seymour, You interested, Uh, Hey, I got Jamie Collins,

486
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,879
Speaker 1: you and I got Lawyer Malloy, You interested like you go? Yeah,

487
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: those are big names. And then all of a sudden, Hey,

488
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:56,680
Speaker 1: anybody who said in Malcolm Butler? Yes, yeah, thing who

489
00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 1: was the Logan Mankins? Remember that? Yeah? Tom, Tom's mad.

490
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 1: His offensive lineman got traded to Tampa And all of

491
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 1: a sudden, yeah we never heard of right, Yeah, No,

492
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 1: I know. Bill's got a great feel of getting that.

493
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,120
Speaker 1: You know, Oh, it's coming to the end. Maybe he's

494
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: got one more year, but it's it's about over. And yeah,

495
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:18,959
Speaker 1: he's a step ahead of the game that way, and

496
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 1: that's some of the toughest things to do as a

497
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,119
Speaker 1: head coach because you know, yeah, it's to say what

498
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: you want. These coaches do like their players. There is

499
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 1: a personal aspect, but the his ability to cut the

500
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 1: cord a year early has of course made them really

501
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: really damn good for a long time because of that. So,

502
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,119
Speaker 1: uh yeah, I would be weary of of of Sony Michelle,

503
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:45,400
Speaker 1: and I'll certainly be watching more likely to disappoint. Yeah, Cowboys, Browns.

504
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Cowboys. I gotta see it to believe it.

505
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,480
Speaker 1: With the Cowboys. First, the Browns last year just kept

506
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 1: going like this, and then this year they just made

507
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: their roster just keep going like this. And it's year

508
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,719
Speaker 1: two in the same system for Baker Mainfield and you know,

509
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 1: everything you hear Odell Beckham junior looking really damn good.

510
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 1: I mean, on paper, the Browns roster is as impressive

511
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:14,439
Speaker 1: as anybody in football. So I think between that, you know,

512
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 1: Stefanski and Baker have created a little culture there. They're

513
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,159
Speaker 1: pretty damn good on both sides of the on the

514
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,400
Speaker 1: both sides of the ball. And Dallas, I just want

515
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:27,160
Speaker 1: to go one. I'm not sure. Dak is totally himself

516
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: and he hasn't played and now he's gonna go to

517
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,119
Speaker 1: Tampa Week one, and just what carry the team? I

518
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: don't I'm not sold they're gonna be able to run

519
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: the ball. I gotta see Ezekiel Elliott, you know, and

520
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 1: everybody's talking about he's leaner and quicker. I want to go.

521
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 1: It doesn't look good that his legs are half the

522
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 1: size of Dak Prescott and hub A hard knocks. I

523
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 1: don't know. I haven't seen running back to really be

524
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 1: that successful when their legs are half the size of

525
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 1: the quarterback. So I gotta see that. And then, of

526
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 1: course the defense we know was a disaster last year,

527
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: so I'll pick the Cowboys in that department. Oh gosh, yeah, what, No,

528
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 1: it's just the it's the Cowboys. I know, they get

529
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 1: more attention than it feels like all of the other

530
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: teams combined. I agree, but no, but it's just because

531
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 1: they're America's team in that popular fan base, right, it

532
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 1: really is for the most part. And Jerry's you know,

533
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 1: amazing at keeping them in the news and relevant and

534
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: doing things like that. But you're right, Yeah, it's it's

535
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 1: amazing they do. They get too much attention. They got

536
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 1: a few stars, but yeah, they gotta they gotta have

537
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 1: a team, and you know that's where you know, you

538
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: look at it, where the team. I mean, yeah, you

539
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 1: know there's some good things, but everybody talks about the

540
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 1: talent Chris because it's the Cowboys. Like man, those linebackers,

541
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 1: Sean Lee, Layton Vander and I'm going, where are these guys?

542
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 1: I know, Jalen Smith, I mean, he's a backup. I

543
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 1: know they paid them all this Money's a backup. He's

544
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: not even gonna start on their team this year. I

545
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 1: mean Randy Gregory second round pick. Never, he's never done

546
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: crap for them. You know, they've had some interesting moves

547
00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,560
Speaker 1: and decisions. They've made Taco Charlton right round pick a

548
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 1: few years ago. I mean, damn, he might not be

549
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 1: in the league this year. So they've swung and missed

550
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: there too. That I think really been a detriment to

551
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 1: the building of their football team. Uh So, yeah, it is,

552
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: They're they're overhyped. It is. It's just Dak Prescott, Amari Cooper,

553
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb and Ezekiel Elliott and we'll see where it goes.

554
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: From there, When do you make your Super Bowl pick? Um?

555
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 1: Probably next week on my podcast. I gotta start kind

556
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 1: of formulating, you know, playoff teams and doing that. How

557
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: about who are you not picking? Who am I not picking?

558
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 1: Like you mean that of like true playoff? I mean first,

559
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: I'm not picking Chicago to go to the playoffs or

560
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 1: anything year in Chicago? Yeah? Right that dude? Yeah, I

561
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: like that music. That's great. Um, you know, I mean

562
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 1: I don't know who I'm not picking. That's a Seattle

563
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: I'm not sure about. I gotta see Seattle a little bit,

564
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 1: you know, a little offseason drama, you know, new offense,

565
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 1: offensive line. Hey, we'll see where that goes. The other

566
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 1: thing I'll just say too, is you know, let's the

567
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 1: defense got better last year, but underwhelming secondary other than

568
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: Quandre Diggs, nobody up front that you're worried about, right,

569
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: Geron Read's gone. It's a lot of like young guys

570
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 1: where you're going, Oh, they got potential, but is it

571
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: gonna come through? So they'd be a team that I

572
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: look at. Yeah, I almost a borderline like some I

573
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: have some thoughts to go. Man, Seattle I think is

574
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: on the playoff bubble in that in that division, I

575
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 1: think the Booty nine Ers the Rams will be good.

576
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be shocked to see them kind of fighting

577
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: for their life this year. Better team Chargers Rams, who

578
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 1: has more wins? The thing that scares me so much

579
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 1: about the Rams is they're just so thin. It is

580
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: a twenty two man team, and like two injuries, they

581
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 1: could totally be derailed there. M Man, who am I

582
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: gonna pay? I'm still gonna go with the Rams. I'm

583
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 1: gonna go with the proven commodity here in McVeigh and

584
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 1: Raheem Morris being the defensive core naer with Matthew Stafford

585
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: as that Chargers team, I mean, listen, they're a team

586
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 1: that I'm certainly thinking about putting in the playoffs. But

587
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 1: it is a new offensive coordinator. I still don't know

588
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 1: why they really let Shane Steiken go out the door

589
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,120
Speaker 1: with the success they had, but justin Herbert and him

590
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 1: last year. But Joe Lombardi, of course, we know he's

591
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 1: pretty damn good under Sean Payton. So I just I

592
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: guess that there's some things there I want to see.

593
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: Can Derwin James stay healthy? Can Joey Bosa stay healthy?

594
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 1: So that's why I'll Aaron the Rams would certainly wouldn't

595
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 1: be shocked at the Chargers were in the playoffs. Too

643
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:24,359
Speaker 1: But but I it's the only time I sweat. Oh yeah,

649
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,239
Speaker 1: Who has to get to the ya? How do you

650
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 1: come up with the idea that you're going to do

651
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 1: a movie about a basketball scout for the Sixers, down

652
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:58,279
Speaker 1: on his luck, finds this great player and is going

653
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 1: to bring him back to the NBA to somehow reclaim

654
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 1: his career life. By the way, you're in the movie too,

655
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 1: and so so the Danettes and besides mclove and you're

656
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 1: playing yourself. But this was just total luck. Those guys

657
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 1: brought it to me. They brought it to me. It

658
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:20,839
Speaker 1: was written originally but I find a player in China,

659
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 1: and somehow Netflix is nine in China, so they were like,

660
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 1: would would you guys please make it that we find

661
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 1: somebody in Latin America or Europe. So next thing you know,

662
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 1: I'm in my organ Wait that's how that happened. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

663
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 1: it was originally a kind of player in China. And

664
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 1: by the way, you know what, I saw the picture

665
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 1: where you're at the beach and you got your shirt

666
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:52,400
Speaker 1: off and you're getting in the water there. That was disgusting. Yeah,

667
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 1: I know. And I'm looking. I'm flipping through and it's

668
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 1: like Adam Sandler taking a dip, and I'm going, what

669
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:03,279
Speaker 1: a humiliating moment? Yeah? Nothing, nothing grossy Because by the way,

670
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,320
Speaker 1: not only was I swimming there thinking I was happy

671
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 1: and open once in my life, going let me jump

672
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 1: in the Mediterranean, but then on top of that Joe

673
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:16,320
Speaker 1: Betsy was swimming and he can't swim, and I seriously

674
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 1: was watching him. I was like, is he about to

675
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 1: die out there? That's the one they got a picture.

676
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 1: I'm standing there with a shirt off, going my friends

677
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 1: about to die. This is amazing. You need to get

678
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 1: a body double. By the way, I saw one of

679
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:32,279
Speaker 1: the pictures, I was like, it could have been a

680
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:35,279
Speaker 1: lot work. There's nothing good. There's nothing good about it,

681
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:39,800
Speaker 1: but there's nothing atrocious about it. What is Lebron James

682
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:44,240
Speaker 1: doing with the movie? I guess is he co producing this? Yeah?

683
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 1: It's his company, him and Maverick. They have a big

684
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,759
Speaker 1: movie company now. And they those guys called me with

685
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,839
Speaker 1: the script, and Joe Roth and uh and they all, uh,

686
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:56,840
Speaker 1: it was great. It was a really cool script. I

687
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 1: play a scout. I get to play kind of a

688
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 1: guy who's been in the league a long time and

689
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 1: getting him pushed around and not not really getting any traction,

690
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,839
Speaker 1: but but loves it and he wants to coach One

691
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 1: day and Robert Duval owns the team and I've been

692
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:18,520
Speaker 1: scouting for years and Duval finally says, you know what,

693
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 1: We're going to make your assistant coaches here and he

694
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 1: passes away, and his son that Ben Foster's playing, takes

695
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 1: over the team, and Ben doesn't like me, so he

696
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:30,480
Speaker 1: gets me back on the road. And so when I'm

697
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 1: on the road, I'm like, if I find that one

698
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:37,279
Speaker 1: guy like Luca Dirk or somebody like that caliber that

699
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,719
Speaker 1: you can't deny me that what I've done to the team,

700
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 1: and they'll give me a shot. And I find Lancho

701
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 1: hernand Gomez, who said the greatest I can't tell you, Danny,

702
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,240
Speaker 1: he acts so much better than me, And every scene

703
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 1: it's like, God damn it, this guy's falling crying in

704
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 1: the middle of the scenes, doing the right thing, just

705
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,640
Speaker 1: every joke he says. I'm like, he's said smoother than

706
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,759
Speaker 1: I would over and he's an NBA player, Like, you're

707
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:07,799
Speaker 1: getting out acted by an NBA player destroying me at

708
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: six ten, staring looking down at me, going no, no, no,

709
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,440
Speaker 1: that's not how you do that him, Let me show you.

710
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 1: And he's a great guy. And I got to meet

711
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 1: his family in Spain and his brother Willie is a

712
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,800
Speaker 1: great guy. And oh, by the way, the whole Spanish

713
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,120
Speaker 1: Olympic team was in the movie too. A lot of

714
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 1: the guys, what I was in Spain. What happens is

715
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,360
Speaker 1: I find him at a kind of like a Rutger

716
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: Park of Spain kind of game and he's dominating out there,

717
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,360
Speaker 1: and I say, hey, man, you know, I go and

718
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,160
Speaker 1: meet him and tell him what I do. And he

719
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 1: doesn't speak English well, so he thinks I'm lying, and

720
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,319
Speaker 1: I get him to come practice would be the next

721
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 1: day with the Spanish Olympic team, so it's just to

722
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: show him that I'm legitimate, and then I bring him

723
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 1: over to America. We're talking to Adam Sandler and the

724
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 1: new movie that he's shooting now is called Hustle and

725
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:04,480
Speaker 1: it'll be on Netflix. But you're also did you did

726
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:09,720
Speaker 1: you finish the Sean Payton movie that's done? That looks

727
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: that looks great. That's Kevin James and he's here and

728
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 1: my my wife's brother wrote it and Kevin James plays

729
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,160
Speaker 1: Sean Payton and this is the year that he gets

730
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 1: suspended by the commissioner and the movie is about him

731
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:28,800
Speaker 1: coaching his son in high school. Well, Sean's daughter, Megan

732
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 1: did this incredible short on Sean and it was about

733
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:36,480
Speaker 1: you know, I don't I don't even know, maybe ten

734
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 1: minutes long about what happened that year when Sean didn't play,

735
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:42,719
Speaker 1: didn't coached the team, and wasn't allowed to hang out

736
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 1: at the NBA NFL, he went home and coached his

737
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,800
Speaker 1: son's Pop Warner team or or you know, youth team

738
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:54,480
Speaker 1: and and got closer with his voice aause they were

739
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 1: hanging out and then he said it was the best

740
00:40:56,560 --> 00:41:00,120
Speaker 1: year of his life and with football. So I all

741
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,880
Speaker 1: those guys up and said that would be an incredible movie.

742
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,759
Speaker 1: And anyway, Sean was cool, and I said, yeah, let's

743
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 1: do it. And my watch brother Chris wrote it with

744
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:14,759
Speaker 1: his buddy, and Sean was cool enough to do it

745
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,080
Speaker 1: and Ken then we told Kevin James about it and

746
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 1: he said he's not a problem. He'll lose three to

747
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:22,840
Speaker 1: four pounds if we want to fill it. And he

748
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,439
Speaker 1: did it. No, but Kevin's great in the movie plays

749
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:30,399
Speaker 1: Sean's it's awesome, and Sean's in the movie at the end,

750
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: and you're in the movie and everybody's in the movie.

751
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 1: Sam Man will text me sometimes at odd hours, whether

Speaker 1: night from working all day with those with the sixers,

756
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 1: and I was so excited, and then I was like,

757
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:55,920
Speaker 1: oh yeah, I got that meeting to I got a

758
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 1: doo editing tonight. I'm losing my marbles a little bit,

759
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:00,319
Speaker 1: but I get it pretty good. I mean, you saw

760
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:03,200
Speaker 1: my body in the picture. That life's pretty good. There's

761
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 1: some food being eating. Yeah. Uh, your little league team

762
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 1: got eliminated yesterday by Ohio. But that's a hell of

763
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:14,720
Speaker 1: a run from your your little league team. Those guys

764
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 1: were and they almost won yesterday. I didn't see the

765
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 1: whole game. I was shooting and then I went into

766
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 1: my trailer and it was on and I saw them

767
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 1: coming back and they they played. I mean, Ohio was great,

768
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:30,160
Speaker 1: but New Hampshire Manchester hook said we were making a

769
00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:33,640
Speaker 1: run and it was a tight game, and that kid

770
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,480
Speaker 1: in right field on Ohio made a great catch. But

771
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:38,360
Speaker 1: it was they were rolling all of a sudden. But

772
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:42,320
Speaker 1: I couldn't couldn't be happy for those guys. That's a dream.

773
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,879
Speaker 1: When we were kids, we were like, man, we gotta

774
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 1: get to Williamsport. That was every kid's dream in little league.

775
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:50,759
Speaker 1: And the fact that they did it, and they did

776
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,920
Speaker 1: all those teams to get there. Was very proud of them. Okay,

777
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 1: but this is your little league team. You played on

778
00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 1: this same team the Samons Act Fields in Park. I

779
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,680
Speaker 1: played in my my whole youth and my dad was

780
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,399
Speaker 1: my coach. All my best friends or on the all

781
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 1: star team with me, and it was those were the

782
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,080
Speaker 1: best springs and summers of our lives. And then we

783
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:17,480
Speaker 1: played pretty well in our tournament. We I think we

784
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 1: got pretty far into the state championship and then we lost.

785
00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:23,880
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure if I remember correctly, we played about

786
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:25,880
Speaker 1: eight and like we went on a run. But not

787
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 1: like these guys. These guys were insane. How good they played?

788
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:32,920
Speaker 1: What position did you play? I was a short stop

789
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 1: in a picture. Okay, I was pretty damn good. I

790
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:37,440
Speaker 1: was pretty damn good back then. And then all of

791
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,319
Speaker 1: a sudden, everybody got in the Babe Ruth league. I

792
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:42,840
Speaker 1: noticed everyone proved four to five inches, and I was like,

793
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:47,279
Speaker 1: what happen? Nobody? Literal league? I was? I was? I

794
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 1: was good. I saw the picture. Your your your front row,

795
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 1: your your dead center front row. Got you got your

796
00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:02,400
Speaker 1: big fro. I had a little little extra hair, you know,

797
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 1: every year it was different. Sometimes I had the scuzz,

798
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:08,760
Speaker 1: they called it a scuzz. And when you got a

799
00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,919
Speaker 1: crew cut, shan man, go out of scuts. And then

800
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 1: then there were the days where my mother would say,

801
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:18,680
Speaker 1: let your hair grow, baby, it's so beautiful, and I

802
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 1: would look disturbing that my father would stare at me

803
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 1: at the table, like we gotta cut that hair. You

804
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 1: look ridicular? Were you? So? What was your what would

805
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:32,800
Speaker 1: be the scouting report on the Sandman? Okay? So I

806
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 1: was na, no no lie. They called me the vacuum.

807
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:40,439
Speaker 1: I was very smooth out and uh I nothing got

808
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,680
Speaker 1: by me at short. I had a decent arm got

809
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 1: it the first guys And if if by the way,

810
00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 1: in Little League now when they when they throw they

811
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 1: have a double play, these guys act like that was

812
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:52,800
Speaker 1: supposed to happen. When we had a double play a

813
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:54,879
Speaker 1: Litle league, we looked at each other like that really

814
00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 1: people at what happened? I know, but but that was

815
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:04,360
Speaker 1: exciting a double playback and these guys literally don't I

816
00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 1: don't know how they got so good so young. But

817
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:08,800
Speaker 1: and then what else was I was good? But I

818
00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:10,640
Speaker 1: had a good bat. I had a good bat. I

819
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,799
Speaker 1: got I could. I pulled it every time, never never

820
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:15,839
Speaker 1: had anything to write to you, and pulled it every

821
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:19,120
Speaker 1: every time and never knocked one out. I hit the

822
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:23,200
Speaker 1: fence one time. It was a wooden wooden like. The

823
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,720
Speaker 1: signs were all over the fence, and I remember hearing boom,

824
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: and I was like, I had to fence. God, damn well,

825
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 1: I think I got a double. I was not even

826
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:33,920
Speaker 1: a thought of a triple. But if I would have

827
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 1: said back then, hey, you can be a professional baseball player,

828
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 1: or you can grow up and be a comedian baseball player,

829
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 1: I would have wanted that. Now. The truth is, Danny,

830
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 1: I was laying in bed one day. I was like

831
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 1: a Saturday afternoon, and I said to my dad, I

832
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,399
Speaker 1: might have told you this. I said to my dad.

833
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:54,160
Speaker 1: He goes, what do you want to do one year older?

834
00:45:54,200 --> 00:46:03,319
Speaker 1: I said, however, be a pro baseball player. He goes, nah, nah, good, no, no, no,

835
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 1: I am Kyle mcdonnaugh, Kyle mcdonnah. He could be a

836
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 1: pro baseball player. He goes, you're slow, and I go, yeah,

837
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:12,880
Speaker 1: I know I'm slow, but that's all. He goes, No,

838
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:16,840
Speaker 1: you're real. Don't you never seen yourself run? Do you

839
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:19,360
Speaker 1: filmed me? He filled me with one of those super

840
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:21,319
Speaker 1: eight cameras and he goes, look at your run. Not

841
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 1: that you can't be a pro. That sounds like a movie.

842
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:30,880
Speaker 1: That's pretty true, man. He was just he was just

843
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 1: looking at me, like, quit lying, Let's get you something.

844
00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:36,840
Speaker 1: And then I remember when I told my dad I

845
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: want to be a comedian. He was all back, Dad

846
00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:41,520
Speaker 1: out one hundred percent. But he said, but you gotta

847
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:45,960
Speaker 1: give yourself a time limit, and so if you you

848
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:47,880
Speaker 1: don't make it by the time you're twenty three, you

849
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:50,280
Speaker 1: come for it. For me, I said, yeah, yeah, okay,

850
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,320
Speaker 1: and then I started doing okay. I'm very young, and

851
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 1: he was like, and I said, do I have to

852
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:56,279
Speaker 1: work here? Yeah? He just no, no, no, You're make

853
00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:58,920
Speaker 1: it enough. Let's keep going with that. But that was

854
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:00,719
Speaker 1: that was a fallback play. That's going to be an

855
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:09,000
Speaker 1: electrician for my dad. You and then Danny, were you

910
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:23,960
Speaker 1: Keith wanted to talk sports. And then I think Nicole

911
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:27,200
Speaker 1: was surprised that he, her husband, knew who I was.

912
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 1: And and then you know, we got along famously after that.

913
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:34,680
Speaker 1: Of course, Um, I can play guitar. By the way

914
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:42,040
Speaker 1: that Keith smooth, he can, sin could take anybody's wife away.

915
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:45,279
Speaker 1: One of your co stars in the movie Hustle has

916
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:47,960
Speaker 1: a question. Yes, mclove Yeah, Adam, it's mclovin. There's a

917
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:50,080
Speaker 1: lot of emails going around. I could probably use a

918
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:52,439
Speaker 1: push from you. The size of my trailer has become

919
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:55,360
Speaker 1: an issue on set. I mean, I don't. It doesn't

920
00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 1: need to be huge. Just like does he get a

921
00:50:57,719 --> 00:51:03,320
Speaker 1: double banger? He gets? He gets? Uh, he's sharing it. Okay,

922
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:06,600
Speaker 1: he's sharing the trailer, but he does. We did get

923
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:09,160
Speaker 1: him a full weight room. We got him a uh

924
00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:13,200
Speaker 1: got a nice guy on the set. There's an extra

925
00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:15,440
Speaker 1: green room for him. We got all the candles. Nick

926
00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 1: Love and asked for what is the strangest thing you've

927
00:51:17,719 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 1: ever asked for or heard somebody ask? Um, Well, I

928
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:30,359
Speaker 1: don't know, nothing, nothing awful, nothing. I don't really ask

929
00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:32,319
Speaker 1: for too much. But but I think maybe I do

930
00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:35,839
Speaker 1: ask for too much because sometimes that the people stare

931
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:39,520
Speaker 1: at me like I'm I'm a pig. But uh what

932
00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:42,720
Speaker 1: the hell? Uh No, nothing too bad? Just wait, weight rooms,

933

947
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:30,319
Speaker 1: make eye contact with us just because she had no

948
00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:33,240
Speaker 1: idea who we were and had no interest in talking

Speaker 1: to us, even though we all wanted to talk to her,

950
00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:38,920
