16
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: has come out with It's what they've called the way

17
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: Way too early d v o A projections after Super Bowl.

18
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 1: After the Super Bowl, this will be their projections on

19
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: what teams will be in I thought it was interesting.

20
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: I think this is the first time they've done it,

21
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: and think they did the last year. But yeah, and

22
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: what I found interesting was two things. Is, first of all,

23
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: call is the team, call them too is their current quarterback.

24
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: So basically what they're saying, like right now they have

25
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: Mason Rudolph as the Steelers quarterback, as they should. They're

26
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: not gonna put Russell Wilson or Malik Willison there. I mean,

27
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 1: you have to put what you have. So conversely, the

28
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: Steelers d d O A is really bad next year,

29
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,039
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, and I'm sure that they're gonna

30
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:47,040
Speaker 1: keep changing this as the quarterback swap teams. I'm I'm

31
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: guessing this is going to be uh an ever changing

32
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: spreadsheet of theirs. But we probably won't see the next

33
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: one though until training camps open right right right now,

34
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: after the rosters are pretty set, I would imagine. But

35
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: I also thought was interesting, which of course is also

36
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 1: very subject to change, is they took it even a

37
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: step further and said, well, we don't know where they're playing,

38
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 1: but we know every team's schedule of who's on who

39
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: they're gonna play, and so we're gonna do d v

40
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: O A strength of schedule already to like how you know,

41
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 1: like what's your what's your two thousand, twenty two schedule

42
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: strength of schedule look like if these numbers are right,

43
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: then I'm sure they'll update that too. It's really tough though,

44
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: to do this, As I mentioned in the previous segment,

45
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,359
Speaker 1: of the league is gonna be a free agent, right,

46
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: and you have a draft, and nobody's done anything in

47
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 1: the draft, right exactly. I mean, the new coaches essentially

48
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:53,080
Speaker 1: the of the of these guys are gonna be on

49
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 1: either like our because you figure, okay, the league's unsigned.

50
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: Let's say the draft is another ten percent of the league.

51
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: Every year, we're talking half half the league. We have

52
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: no idea where they're gonna be playing at right exactly,

53
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 1: half the guys are gonna be next exactly. I mean,

54
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 1: they're foundation pieces in place that we know we're going

55
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: to return. I mean, my homes is gonna be achieved,

56
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 1: things like that, the important stuff. But you're right, I mean,

57
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: and that's why they call it way, way, way too early.

58
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: But I found it interesting. I mean I thought it

59
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 1: was a good thing to look at. Here is just

60
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 1: a you know, where these teams are at. You know,

61
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: like for example, Green Bay is really high as you

62
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: would think, but they have Aaron Rodgers as their quarterback,

63
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: and they haven't cut anybody to make that happ yet either. Yeah.

64
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: So looking at this from um bottom the top, they

65
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: have the Atlanta Falcons has to have the worst dev

66
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 1: o A of any of the teams there minus third

67
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: team point two. Have you and I talked about them?

68
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 1: I get some of my podcast and fuse once and

69
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: we tell you we've we've talked about them, that they're atrocious.

70
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna pick first overall. Yeah. I mean

71
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: I'd rather be the Jags. I'd rather be the Lions.

72
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: I mean, the offense is, the defense is bad, the

73
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: specialty bad, there's the salary caps bad. I mean, everything's awful.

74
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 1: I mean they're talking about cutting guys like Grady Jarrett

75
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 1: just to get under and man, I don't know how

76
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: they get better. I think they're in a really really

77
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 1: bad shape. Detroit Ist Yeah, yeah, they're minus twelve point four,

78
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: as you'd expect. Yeah, they have The Steelers is the

79
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: thirtieth best team in the league. I have a little

80
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: problem with that, don't get me wrong. I mean, but

81
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: they're saying, what with Mason Rudolph as currently constructed, they

82
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: would have the thirty second best offense in the league.

83
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: That's what they're saying. They would have the worst offense

84
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Okay, I don't know that the defense

85
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 1: should be about average, which I don't quite understand why

86
00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: the defense can come the defense comes. Uh, Special teams

87
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: is seventeen in the in the schedule is nineteen, so

88
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: it's the nineteenth toughest. So it just doesn't it doesn't

89
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: add up to me. I don't know. I mean, they're

90
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: they're saying that Mason Rudolph his his d v O. A. Uh,

91
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: there's the Steelers offensive DVO is the worst in the league,

92
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: and it's not even close. Like the next the next

93
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 1: closest is the is the Carolina Panthers at minus ten

94
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: point five and the Steelers are minus eleven point eight. Yeah,

95
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 1: I don't see anybody. I'm scrolling here, and I've set

96
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:44,840
Speaker 1: up just nobody else in minus double digits. Nobody evens

97
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: minus nine, Like those two are a distant thirty one

98
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: and thirty two. You're telling me the New York the

99
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 1: the offensive the New York Jets that we saw last

100
00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 1: year is gonna Zack Zach Wilson comes in at minus

101
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: four point four. Yeah, I mean the Saints. The Saints

102
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 1: offense comes out with no wide receivers and Taysom Hill

103
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: is their quarterback. I was even looking at Blaine Gabbard

104
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: as Tampa's or Drew Lock as Denver's, which none of

105
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 1: us think those will be the starters. And I don't

106
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 1: think Rudolph with the start in Pittsburgh either, But it

107
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. I mean, for they've got them head and

108
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: shoulders above the Steelers way better, like close to league average,

109
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 1: which doesn't make any sense to me. No, it doesn't

110
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 1: make any sense to either. I mean, I'm sure a

111
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: lot of this is math that I don't understand. I mean,

112
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: Washington's offense with Taylor Heineke at quarterback is minus two

113
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: point four. Way better, way better. Yeah, I assume they

114
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: do something along the lines of last year's offensive d

115
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:58,719
Speaker 1: v O A Ben minus Rudolph, however that works. But

116
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 1: if all those things are true, how about the Jets?

117
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: I mean, the Jets are only minus four point four

118
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: with the same quarterback in an awful offense year ago, too, Like,

119
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: why do we think it's gonna be so much better?

120
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I don't get it. I'm I'm gonna last

121
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: with that, I really am um. As we mentioned, the

122
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers are next or twenty nine, Houston with Davis

123
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 1: Mills right after being a terrible team and earning a

124
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: top three pick. Yeah, Jacksonville with Trevor Lawrence is then

125
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 1: at that. You know they do have some again, as

126
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: I'm not a mathematician, but I know they have some principles,

127
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: some things they do with their numbers about quarterbacks taking

128
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 1: a step forward in their second year, highly drafted ones,

129
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: which I'm sure history shows is true. Yeah, um, but

130
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: not for all of them. But they're not all gonna

131
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: works and Wilson are all gonna be home? Right? You

132
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: know we just talked about the New York Giants. Uh,

133
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: they're Denver's at twenty five. The Giants are are at

134
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: twenty four. Their offense is minus five point nine, So

135
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,239
Speaker 1: they think that that the Giants offense is two times

136
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: as good as the Steelers offense essentially, Right, Like the

137
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: gap from Selers to Giants is the same as Giants

138
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: to league average. Right, that's a big Those are big gaps.

139
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: That's a huge gap. All right? In which defense do

140
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 1: you think is gonna be better? Yeah? I don't quite

141
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 1: understand why the Steeler D isn't one of the best.

142
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: Like all of these all of these teams that we've

143
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 1: listed thus far, the Steelers have their Steelers defense comes

144
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 1: in at now. I don't think it's gonna be thirteen

145
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: best next year. It was they finished that they finished

146
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: one season fifteen in DV O A. I believe four

147
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 1: or fifteen after there was a point in the season

148
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 1: where they were like I think maybe after after the

149
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 1: game against the Vikings and then they and then it

150
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: picked up over the last three or four games of

151
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: the season where they took a big jump. So, as

152
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 1: you said before, of the league is free agents, I

153
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: don't think the Steelers are set to lose of their defense.

154
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: They're most certainly not. And if league averages, you're losing

155
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: your defense or at least sets in questions or can't

156
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 1: be accounted for. UM. I find that kind of interesting too.

157
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: Was getting a little bit short on the stick. I

158
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: do as well. UM, Tampa Bay with Blaine Gabbert at

159
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: quarterback is twenty three. Uh. New Orleans with Taysom Hill

160
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 1: at quarterback is twenty two, and they're gonna lose Armstead

161
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 1: and Tampa is gonna lose two or three linemen and

162
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: godwindn't likely, you know, like there's some prominent people of

163
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: those offenses that are those teams are probably are gonna

164
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 1: be back. Yeah, as I mentioned, Washington with Taylor Heineke

165
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,679
Speaker 1: at quarterback, somehow comes out offensive. D v A A

166
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 1: is minus two point four. It's pretty good. I mean

167
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 1: it's close to the league average. And that's where the

168
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: defense that they're projecting is gonna be in d v

169
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: O A And there's also a two point four. Yeah,

170
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: and special teams that are twelve and somehow they come

171
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: in at twenty one overall. I mean, I give them credit.

172
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: I don't know how you can rank special teams, but

173
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 1: maybe it's just if you bring back Justin Tucker or Boswell,

174
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 1: you get a check in the right the right column.

175
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: I don't guess. I don't know. Miami, Miami with two

176
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 1: A Tagavola, uh comes in at twenty. Chicago with Justin

177
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: Fields comes in at nineteen. Mm hmm. Once they just

178
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 1: interrupt you here real quick, because I turned this into

179
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 1: a spreadsheet for fun, and I also put a column

180
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 1: stealing it from a combination of Pro Football Focus and

181
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: Football over the Cap. They both put out lists of

182
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: where your inc with your offseason resources, and some of

183
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: these teams like the Bears are thirty, the Bucks are

184
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 1: thirty second, Carolina is twenty seven. And it's a combination

185
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,959
Speaker 1: of what you have in draft picks right now, how

186
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: much free agency space you have right now, and how

187
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 1: you can easily make more free agency space. So I

188
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: would understand like the Jets. Okay, the Jets are what

189
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,199
Speaker 1: the seventh best team giver take in their d v

190
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: o A, but they have the most offseason resources, so

191
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 1: I could see them saying what they're bringing back isn't great,

192
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: but they're gonna add more than the average team. But

193
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: a team like the Bucks, are the Panthers or the Bears,

194
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 1: They're gonna lose more than They're gonna lose more than

195
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 1: they gain get stuff. They're not gonna have Tom Brady anymore.

196
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: Under said, right, I think they should be lower on

197
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: this list. To be quite frank, I you too, because

198
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 1: they have a lot of big time free agents too,

199
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: like four Net and Jason Fire, Paul and the corner Davis.

200
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: You know, I mean, guys that are gonna be very expensive.

201
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: Um side note, Pittsburgh's right in the middle of the

202
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 1: league in that off season resources combination. They're a little

203
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 1: light on picks compared to teams like the Jets and Eagles,

204
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 1: of course, but they're pretty good in cap space. Uh.

205
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 1: They don't project the Steelers doing a lot of easy

206
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 1: restructures to open up a lot more cap space because

207
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: they don't have to. They don't really have to, and yeah,

208
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: it doesn't make a lot of sense to do it.

209
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 1: The Raiders come in, the Titans that Yeah, the Titans

210
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: with Ryan Tannehill come in at seventeen. Tennessee is a

211
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 1: team I worry about too, Like they're twenty five in

212
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: offseason resources. They need receivers and three fifths of their

213
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 1: offensive line could be gone. You know what if Henry

214
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 1: takes a little step back, Like, I don't think there's

215
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: a lot there to get excited about. No, I don't either.

216
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 1: The Viking with Kirk Cousins come in at sixteen, so

217
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:07,679
Speaker 1: they are a league average. The Eagles with Jalen Hurts, Okay,

218
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: they have the second most resources, I mean three first

219
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: yeld picks space. The Browns come in at Okay, I

220
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 1: guess I get that. I mean that's really banking on

221
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:25,319
Speaker 1: a Baker rebound though, big time time big. I don't

222
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 1: think there's to be another quarterback there, Like I don't

223
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: think your Bisky is going to Cleveland or you know,

224
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 1: the Bengals come in at I know everybody's on the

225
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,559
Speaker 1: Bengals ban bandwagon, but I think they take a step

226
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: back next year. M hmm. I don't think they're going

227
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: to represent the c in the Super Bowl, That's what

228
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 1: I mean. Are they will They be a playoff team potentially? Probably,

229
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,199
Speaker 1: But you know everybody Pent as well at Joe Burrow

230
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:50,959
Speaker 1: is gonna be back in the in the super Bowl,

231
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 1: you know, for the next eight years. I don't know.

232
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 1: That's not gonna be the They were fifteenth in d

233
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 1: v o A this year. Overall for the SIE they

234
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 1: were an average, just a slightly above average team that

235
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: got hot at the right time. I think they could

236
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,079
Speaker 1: be better this year or next next year than this year.

237
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: Better line, a little more maturity, but I bet they

238
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: don't go as far right right right above them is

239
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: Baltimore at twelve. One note on Baltimore I found interesting

240
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: was but as it stands now, very very very subject

241
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 1: to change. They have the easiest schedule in the league.

242
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: Next year, Yeah, right, Um them to bounce back huge.

243
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 1: Cleveland is thirty one, Cincinnati is. Somehow the Steelers came

244
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: out of this with the nineteenth toughest schedule. Yeah, I

245
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: was wondering that. I don't I don't know how that

246
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: so much. Yeah, I don't know. Maybe because they got

247
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 1: to play Baltimore, Cincinnati, Cleveland, I don't know. I assume

248
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: that's the difference, because you know, they're out of division games.

249
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 1: There's three this year or last year too, as opposed

250
00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 1: to how it used to be too, so that carries

251
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: a little more weight considering they're a playoff team. But

252
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: I guess they're just saying that that. I mean, really,

253
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 1: what they're saying is the Steelers right now are clearly

254
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 1: the fourth best team in this division, and it seems

255
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: like they're saying, well, they'll probably win zero or one

256
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 1: games in the division. I mean, by these, by these numbers,

257
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 1: by these numbers, are saying they're gonna win three or

258
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: four games all year next year, right, right, right? I

259
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: don't know. Um, Indianapolis comes in with Carson Carson Wentz

260
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 1: is still a quarterback for them. At eleven. You've got

261
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: Arizona at ten, it's Chargers at nine Seattle at eight.

262
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 1: That's one. It didn't jive with me at all. I

263
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: don't understand that they they have with with the third

264
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: best offense in the league. Yeah, I remember their offense

265
00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 1: finished pretty high in D D O A two and

266
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 1: I didn't pass the sniff test. I mean, one of

267
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 1: the big problems on offense was they didn't huge problem.

268
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 1: They ran very few plays. And I know they were

269
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 1: decent on a per play basis, but the fact that

270
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: you don't run many plays isn't exactly a ring endorsement

271
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: for controlling the game with your offense. They also that

272
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: the twenty three ranked defense, you can't be the Yeah,

273
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 1: you can't be the eighth best team in the league

274
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 1: with the twenty three ranked defense. They love their offense.

275
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: I don't exactly know why. I'd love to hear Aaron

276
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: Shots talk about it like I would do my Seattle's offense.

Speaker 1: Visit JD power dot com Slash Awards. How we look

289
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 1: at it, Seattle's offense is projected almost identical to the Chiefs, right,

290
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,920
Speaker 1: that's the neighborhood they're keeping offensively here point five once

291
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 1: ten point six. Does anybody think that's the case really? Right?

292
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm a Wreussell Wilson believer, and I think

293
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 1: he can do great things and if he goes to

294
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 1: a new team, lookout. But boy, I mean the Chiefs

295
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,120
Speaker 1: and Seattle offense are not on the same tier. No,

296
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: not at all. The Rams come in at seven. A

297
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 1: problem with that. They're tied with Kansas City. They both

298
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 1: are are nine point nine and total nine nine in

299
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 1: total dv O way Seattle's nine point eight. By the way,

300
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:52,199
Speaker 1: there's a pretty big jump there between the Chargers at

301
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 1: six point four in Seattle at nine point eight. That's

302
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 1: a pretty big difference, a pretty big jump. Yeah. What's

303
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: a little to me with the Rams is their their

304
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: offense is above average, but it's not great. It's five nine.

305
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,880
Speaker 1: I mean it's okay, it's half as good as apparently

306
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: as Settle and I mean I like the Rams offense.

307
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,880
Speaker 1: I know Dell might not be back, but okay, Robert

308
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: Woods is coming back. Um, just a side note with them,

309
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 1: they have the hardness schedule in the league next year,

310
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 1: and Arizona is right behind them at thirty one. What's

311
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 1: their divisions hard? Yeah? San Francisco with Trey Lance at quarterback.

312
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 1: Trey Lance is listed as their quarterback. Often didn't even

313
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 1: love these two together is eight point two. I can

314
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 1: kind of understand that, though. I mean, I just think

315
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 1: that their d v o A is always in that

316
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: neighborhood with Jimmy and Is. I think they're saying it's

317
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 1: good to be good no matter what I mean. Maybe

318
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: that's a leap of faith on Lance. It's certainly is

319
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: a leap. I think it's a huge leap of faith

320
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 1: on Lance. He could, he could, he could throw twenty

321
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: interceptions next year for all we know. We don't know

322
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: it stunny is I think you're gonna have the same

323
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 1: conversation with us next team saw the whole season and

324
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:23,160
Speaker 1: Matt mac Jones. But do we really know? I mean,

325
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 1: New England's only better is what the fourth best team

326
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,880
Speaker 1: in the league here, it looks like they love their

327
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 1: they have their offense, they have their off New England's

328
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: off nine at five times. That's the same was the Rams.

329
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 1: That's better than that's better than Buffaloes. They don't have

330
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: any receivers and they've gotta say in their quarterback it's

331
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 1: better than buffaloes off. Yeah, that's enough set there. I mean,

332
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: come on and Land and at least Lance gives you

333
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: something in the run game. Oh yeah, Jones isn't giving

334
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 1: you any of that, No, right, I mean Lance has

335
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 1: a that's a trump card. He learns and Jones looks

336
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 1: like they didn't have a good career. But to have

337
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: him in the neighborhood of Stafford Mahomes, Wilson, Rodgers, Alan Prescott,

338
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 1: Herbert Tyler, he's not something where he belongs. Yeah, one

339
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 1: of these things is not one of these things. Actually,

340
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:17,399
Speaker 1: a couple of these things are not like the other.

341
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: Because the top team is Dallas with Dak Prescott. Then

342
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 1: you got Buffalo second with Josh Allen, Aaron Rodgers and

343
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,680
Speaker 1: Green Bay or third, and then Matt Jones and Trey

344
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:33,360
Speaker 1: Lance over Patrick Mahomes and Matthew Stafford. Yeah, yeah, Lamar's

345
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 1: two of these things are definitely not like the others. Yeah,

346
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 1: that's a little odd, you know. I mean that's and

347
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 1: they don't have a column for coaching. Like if you

348
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: had the Patriots as the number one coach team and

349
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: San Francisco has number two, at least offensively, that would

350
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 1: back this up a little bit to me, Like, give

351
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 1: me anybody and I'm gonna run the ball down your throats.

352
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,640
Speaker 1: I don't see that factory in here though. I don't

353
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: quite get that part. Yeah, I don't know I have

354
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: a problem, but I get you have to rank somebody

355
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 1: in these spots. Um, if you're gonna do this kind

356
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:13,120
Speaker 1: of thing. But why not the Rams? Why not case? Right?

357
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 1: You could make the arguments in Cincinnati, right, I mean

358
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,680
Speaker 1: the two Super Bowl teams are what they are, uh,

359
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: seventh and seventh and seven and thirteen, which offense. Yeah,

360
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 1: they're not losing much. Cincinnati is not really losing anything.

361
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 1: I'm looking here at Cincinnati's offense, which is pretty good.

362
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 1: They get a two point six in d v O,

363
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 1: A two point six barely better than than that of Cleveland.

364
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 1: In Baltimore, that's right around. Indeed, Philadelphia's offenses better. Philadelphia's

365
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 1: offenses ranked better with with Jalen Hurts at quarterback. That's

366
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 1: where the Bengal are getting shore changed. They're getting a

367
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:05,920
Speaker 1: two six on offense, which is slightly better than the

368
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:12,360
Speaker 1: Colts with Wentz. Yeah, come on, obviously, to me, they

369
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 1: put a lot. It seems to me that they put

370
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 1: a lot on either the quarterback or a strong running game.

371
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 1: I'd say I think they like they might value the

372
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 1: running game much more than other analytics folks do. I mean,

373
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,160
Speaker 1: by the look of obviously, I mean, if you're putting

374
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: Eagles offense, if you're putting Seattle up there, you have

375
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 1: to I mean, that has to be that, that has

376
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 1: to be what it is. One thing about Seattle, I

377
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,479
Speaker 1: will say two things, and I think this is crazy

378
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:44,479
Speaker 1: for Seattle. But if nobody paid attention but their last

379
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: four or five games of the year when Penny was

380
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: running crazy, we're really really good. But didn't they were

381
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,160
Speaker 1: kind of empty calories but they were really really good.

382
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: And I think I have references before that. One of

383
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 1: my dorky spreadsheet seats ide is I take every quarterbacks

384
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 1: accuracy percentage, which is completion percentage, which is really easy

385
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: to find, and multiply it by their average at the target,

386
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 1: you know, just with the with the thought of are

387
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 1: they just completely easy throws or are they driving the

388
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 1: ball down the field? And Wilson was number one in

389
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,679
Speaker 1: the league by a pretty wide margin. I did not

390
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: expect that at all. Yeah, um, you know, they take

391
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 1: your shots. Um, but and he's good at it. Yeah,

392
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 1: I don't know. I look at this. I mean, you'd

393
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 1: have a hard time even if Mason Rudolph as a

394
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 1: Steelers starter all year next year, they're still too low.

395
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: You I have a hard time believing that they're gonna

396
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 1: be worse than Carolina would be with Sam Donald, Where

397
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: Houston is going to be with Davis Mills or Jacksonville

398
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,400
Speaker 1: is going to be with Trevor Lawrence, where the Jets

399
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 1: are going to be with Zack Wilson. I mean, I

400
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 1: get there. There's several other teams on it. Yeah, I mean,

401
00:23:55,920 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 1: I could you know they're gonna play the Saints next year,

402
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,439
Speaker 1: you're telling me the Steelers are gonna lose to the

403
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 1: Saints at home because based off of d v O A, Yeah,

404
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 1: I can't come back to Steelers. I think I don't

405
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,640
Speaker 1: understand why the Steeler defense is that low. I can

406
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 1: sort of understand why the offense is that low as

407
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 1: it's constructed today. And I think the Steelers are clearly

408
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 1: the team most likely to move up this list of anyone.

409
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 1: But I still think they're too hard on the offense.

410
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: I mean, if it's Rudolph and who you have now,

411
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: I could see it being fifth best offense in the league.

412
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 1: I need to go back while we're while we're on

413
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: the while I'm on the site here, I'm gonna go

414
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do this real quick. Here. Uh, they have

415
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,919
Speaker 1: their overall rankings for previous seasons. So I'm gonna go

416
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 1: back and look at twenty nineteen and where the Steelers finished.

417
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:53,199
Speaker 1: B a um. While you're doing that, I mentioned that

418
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 1: these offseason resource teams. You know, some of these guys

419
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 1: that are ranked pretty high on this list have very

420
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:06,199
Speaker 1: few offseason resources. The worst ones the teams, in my

421
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 1: wildest is called least likely to get better. Our Tampa, Dallas, Chicago,

422
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 1: the Rams, Kansas City. I mean, those are all top

423
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 1: teams because they pick late and they kind of mess

424
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 1: out their credit cards. So teams like Tampa and Dallas

425
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 1: are probably gonna go backwards. There's a lot of talking

426
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:28,959
Speaker 1: like Dallas might have to trade to Marty Cooper. The

427
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,159
Speaker 1: one thing about Dallas is they have the thirty second.

428
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: They have the easiest schedule in the league. I think

429
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: are one of the easiest schedules. It's you know, it's

430
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,680
Speaker 1: fourth easiest. Yeah, it's one of the East. So in

431
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:44,360
Speaker 1: twenty nine, team without Ben Roethlisberger, the Steelers in overall

432
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:48,120
Speaker 1: d v o A ranked nineteen. Really okay, and they

433
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 1: were eight eight and they were eight and eight, and

434
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 1: we're right there, you know, going into that game in

435
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: week what was it, weeks sixteen or fifteen against Buffalo,

436
00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 1: both teams were eight in six UM and the Bills

437
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,400
Speaker 1: pulled out I think it was like a seventeen ten

438
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: victory or whatever it was UM on a Monday, it

439
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 1: was remember being a night game. UM. And then the Steelers,

440
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,439
Speaker 1: you know, they ended up losing uh their final two games,

441
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 1: but they were eight and six going into that game.

442
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 1: They had a chance to make the playoffs that year.

443
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 1: They were one of two teams you know how big

444
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: on yards per play they were even Stephen and yards

445
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:27,919
Speaker 1: per play. They were one of the only teams that

446
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: were the produced as many yards as they allowed. But

447
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,199
Speaker 1: they were top five and bottom five. You know what

448
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: it means. Were the best defense as people remember, and

449
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 1: one of the worst offenses is the d v O.

450
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,640
Speaker 1: A broken down in defense and defense for that year. Um,

451
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 1: you know what, I already closed it up. So wasn't good. Yeah,

452
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 1: it wasn't good. Yeah, it's somehow they still found a

453
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 1: way to get to eight and eight and be relevant. Yeah.

454
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: So anyways, we're gonna take a break. Here is Matt Williamson.

455
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 1: I am Dale Lully. You're listening to the drive here

456
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,640
