1 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,879 Speaker 1: This is straight fire with Jason McIntyre. 2 00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:16,239 Speaker 2: What is up, Bam, It's me Jason McIntyre, Straight Bowyer 3 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 2: for what is today, Wednesday, February twenty fifth. You can 4 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,280 Speaker 2: tell I'm very happy tonight. Even though the Lakers suffered 5 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 2: a tough loss to the Orlando Magic. 6 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:30,159 Speaker 3: End of the game, they had a chance. Luca had 7 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 3: an opening and didn't take the three. Lebron's forced to 8 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 3: take a terrible shot. Lakers lose by one to Orlando. 9 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 3: Just a tough loss. I mean, you gotta beat Orlando. 10 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 4: They're good. 11 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 3: I mean they were a good team in the East. 12 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 3: I don't think they're quite a contender, no, Wagner, I 13 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 3: don't know. It's just Luca eight of twenty four, twenty two, 14 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 3: fifteen and nine. But it wasn't enough and Austin reasons, 15 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 3: some kind of funk here out of the All Star break. 16 00:00:56,040 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 3: Not great. We had a big Men's League finale, regular 17 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,759 Speaker 3: season finale, playing our rivals, our friends, really and they 18 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 3: beat us. They so two seasons ago we swept them, 19 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,119 Speaker 3: won the title. Last season they swept us, won the title. 20 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,680 Speaker 3: They won the season opener. We weren't at full strength. 21 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 3: We won last night. They were neither of us were 22 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 3: at full strength. We only had six folks. I know, 23 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 3: you guys don't give a rats ass about men's league basketball, 24 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 3: but my gosh, I came out and I had probably 25 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 3: the best half I've had this season. It was just 26 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 3: so fun. I was in the zone. So here's the 27 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 3: only problem. So I'm such a nerd that usually on 28 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 3: game days, I like to go get up shots because 29 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 3: I think I'm an NBA player, you know, for like 30 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 3: thirty minutes, thirty five minutes, getting a good sweat, rest up, 31 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 3: and then come back so I'm ready for the game. 32 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 3: I'm lot, you know. I I got shots up and 33 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 3: I did that, and first three shots all felt pure. 34 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 3: It's just a weird thing, like it's the equivalent of 35 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 3: like shoot around that NBA guys have. But I did. 36 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 3: I went a little bit too hard, thinking we had 37 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 3: eight guys, and two guys dropped late, one guy's sick, 38 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 3: one guy work, and so I had to play like 39 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 3: almost a full game, and I'm running so hard. At 40 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 3: the end of the game, both calves tighten up, and 41 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh no, no, no, it's just listen, these 42 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 3: are old man problems. But you guys don't care. Anyways, 43 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 3: We've got a great guest today, Ben Garcia. So if 44 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 3: you guys have noticed I'm doing I'm posting more videos 45 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 3: on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Twitter. You kind of have to. 46 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 3: It's it's part of the game. You have to do it. 47 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 3: You can't just not do anything. You got to build 48 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 3: all these social channels out. And I don't love doing it, 49 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 3: and I don't have the energy. I don't have the skill. 50 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 3: So Ben has a lot of skills. He's a young guy, 51 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 3: knows his stuff, so I pay him to make all 52 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 3: my videos. And he also does a lot of stuff 53 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 3: in Arizona regards to in regard to sports there, he's 54 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 3: kind of one of these, like you know, popular voices 55 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 3: on social media when it comes to the Phoenix Suns 56 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 3: Arizona Cardinals, and so I brought them on just because 57 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 3: there's some Kyler Murrie stuff happening. It seems like he's 58 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 3: gonna get cut here soon. Shockingly, the Sun's trade Kevin 59 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 3: Durant and got better. I think you guys all liked 60 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 3: the discussion. Also decent night on the college basketball hardwood. Duke. 61 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 3: If anybody fate tried to fade Duke off the win 62 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 3: over Michigan Duke beating Notre Dame by forty four in 63 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 3: an absolute beatdown. Michigan did not totally live up to 64 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 3: expectations of beating Minnesota. They have Illinois on deck, and 65 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 3: it's interesting because that Illinois Michigan game Friday is gonna 66 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 3: be good. I mean, I don't suggest you stay indoors 67 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 3: and like watch it, but I very likely will be. 68 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 3: I just think it's a great matchup. And the team 69 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 3: I'm starting to, well not starting to is Arizona. They 70 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 3: were excellent last night, coming from behind late to beat Baylor, 71 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 3: and Arizona team is scary, and they are doing counter 72 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 3: to what everyone else is doing. Everyone else's pace and threes, 73 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 3: pace and threes and Arizona's like, now we're just gonna 74 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 3: take high percent of shots inside the arc, a lot 75 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 3: in the paint. They got size and they're doing it differently, 76 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 3: and I kind of respect it. They've got a lot 77 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 3: of size. And what's going to be interesting is what 78 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 3: happens when they're trailing you need to come back they 79 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 3: do they have the patience to pound it inside or 80 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 3: do they start rushing some threes. So very interesting Arizona 81 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 3: team that I will definitely be backing in some capacity 82 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 3: in March Madness. All right, without further ado, let's get 83 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 3: to our guest, Ben Garcia from the Lockdown Suns podcast. 84 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 85 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,919 Speaker 1: the nation.

You know, Jason likes to think he knows 88 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: everything when it comes to sports. 89 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 3: I know what sports fans. 90 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 1: Want, but for everything he doesn't. He knows a guy 91 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: who does. 92 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 4: Let's just say, I know a guy who knows the 93 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 4: guy who knows another guy. 94 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 3: All right, let's welcome into straight fire. Oh boy, an 95 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 3: instrumental voice in Phoenix. He's moving markets, he's shaping opinions, 96 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 3: He's pissing people off. I mean, did I miss anything, 97 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 3: Ben Garcia? How you doing? 98 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: A man? 99 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 4: I think the latter part of those things was probably 100 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 4: the most true. Whether it's Eddie Johnson pissing him off 101 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 4: early on in the year for God knows ornery, Oh God, 102 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 4: he got upset with me because I dared to say 103 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 4: the sunch tray one of their seven guards in favor 104 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 4: of a forward. And oh Dylan Brooks is out now 105 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 4: they're going to start Heywood high Smith at the up. 106 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 3: But I former Miami Heat, I didn't know he was 107 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 3: still in the league. So great, obviously, Listen, Ben's got 108 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 3: a lot going on. We won't take up too much 109 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 3: of his time. He's a newborn father. I know that's 110 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 3: very exciting. He's got a Phoenix Suns team that's like 111 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 3: probably gonna make the playoffs. I mean, I this is shocking. 112 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 3: He's got a quarterback in Kyler Murray who a year ago, 113 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 3: at this time, he swore to me he was better 114 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 3: than Brock Purdy. Now they can't run him out of 115 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 3: town quick enough. And he's maybe got Malik Willis coming 116 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 3: into town. I don't know if that's a good thing. 117 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,599 Speaker 3: I mean, Ben, there's a lot happening. I don't know 118 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 3: where do you want to start, or you could start 119 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 3: with your boy Kevin Durant, who's on a burner, ripped 120 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 3: in former teammates, former coaches, current players. I mean, there's 121 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 3: just so much happening in Phoenix sports. Ben, is there 122 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 3: an area you'd love to dive into first? 123 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 4: I would, actually, I know you called me on originally 124 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 4: to talk about Kyler, but we both have a common enemy. 125 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 4: You don't label him as an enemy because you're older 126 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 4: and more season and more professional than I am when 127 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 4: it comes to Kevin Durant. But oh, that's interesting. The 128 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 4: rockets are worse this year. Oh wait, now imy Udoka 129 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 4: is the problem. Oh wait, Amn Thompson, he's getting his 130 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 4: growth stunted. Alberchon Goo was an All Star this year 131 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,239 Speaker 4: in last year. Oh that's interesting. The common denominator appears 132 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 4: to be the guy taking shots and comparing players to 133 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 4: bat you know, war villains of years ago. So I 134 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 4: don't know. I think at some point Kevin Durant's got 135 00:06:58,240 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 4: a look in the mirror, and I have poke fun 136 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 4: at him numerous occasions, and I will continue to. But 137 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 4: that one's just interesting because at some point we need 138 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 4: to talk about Kevin Durant sucking the life out of 139 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 4: the offense. This is something that I talked about months ago. 140 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 4: This is a older player who does not move like 141 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 4: he used to, can get buckets similar to Carmel Law 142 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 4: Anthony obviously much better than Carmela Lla Anthony later on 143 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 4: in his career. But the ball in Houston is now stagnant. 144 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 4: You need to get shooters around him. And they turned 145 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 4: the men Thompson into a shooter, which is never what 146 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 4: he was. And now this team is worse than they 147 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 4: were last year, and they're gonna be a worse seed 148 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 4: than they were last year, and they're gonna go maybe 149 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 4: around further in the playoffs this year. But I just 150 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 4: think it's funny that oh no, no, no, no, no, it's 151 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 4: because they don't have a point guard. Now, okay, I 152 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 4: remember that conversation. 153 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, listen, I had this the Rockets in the 154 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 3: finals after the KD acquisition. 155 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 4: I thought it was a great fit. 156 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 3: And then FVV goes down. Now Steven Adams is down, 157 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 3: and now you get the burner drama. I don't know, 158 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 3: it feels to me like the Rockets are probably done 159 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 3: in the first round. It's interesting because they could end 160 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 3: up facing could unlikely, but could end up facing the 161 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 3: Phoenix Suns, who are a playing team. I don't know. 162 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 3: Can you articulate, you know, in give me the elevator pitch? 163 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 3: How the hell have the Phoenix Suns gone? And Matt 164 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 3: Ishbia went off online about this. 165 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: How have they gone. 166 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 3: From also ran lottery team too? Oh my gosh, they're 167 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 3: gonna be in the plane yeah, I like Ishbia. 168 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 4: He's came up to me multiple times and has told 169 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 4: me he listens to the show, he likes the stuff, 170 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 4: which kind of annoys me because I went after a 171 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 4: numerous times. I'm more fan of people as if they 172 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 4: don't like me, lets me believe I'm doing my job better. 173 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 4: So maybe I gotta work on that. But Ishbia like 174 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 4: they committed. This is something I talked about like seven 175 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 4: months ago. I was like, well, what if this was 176 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 4: the problem. What if for better or worse, Ishbia is 177 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 4: bringing in his guys. Where when he originally came in, 178 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 4: he kept James Jones, it was about half Michigan State 179 00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 4: in Phoenix and half you know, not so much. It 180 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 4: was it was half of the previous regimes guys, and 181 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 4: you know, you had a business at one point. Everyone 182 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 4: needs to be moving in the same direction, whether for 183 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 4: good or bad in a business model, and I think 184 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 4: the Suns were kind of going in two separate directions. 185 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 4: And finally he got everyone from the previous regime out, 186 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 4: including James Jones, and he brought in all of his 187 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 4: own guys. And now that everyone has a common goal 188 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 4: and know what they want to do, that has seemed 189 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 4: to help the Suns, but also like part of it 190 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 4: is they're just trying harder than everyone else. They're trying 191 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 4: how yeah, and and that's a he's great, right, I 192 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 4: would I would love for every team in the NBA 193 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 4: to try really hard. The Sons are really great defensively, 194 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 4: a top ten team in terms of a defensive rating, 195 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 4: and they just do enough offensively to get by. Now 196 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 4: they've you know, without Dylan Brooks for a little bit, 197 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 4: and Devin Booker's out for another week, so that's gonna 198 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 4: be tough. And that's why they just lost the Blazers 199 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 4: the other night when we were since we're since we've 200 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 4: been recording this, but a lot of it has to 201 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 4: do it. They just got a bunch of guys who 202 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 4: were cast aside, Dylan Brooks cast a side, Jordan Goodman 203 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 4: calling Gillespie not even drafted, and everyone just has a 204 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 4: common goal of we're gonna try really, really hard, and 205 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 4: every bucket you make is going to be tough to 206 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,839 Speaker 4: come by. And you can do that in the NBA 207 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 4: and get to the Knicks went to the conference finals 208 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 4: last year doing it, or you know, years ago when 209 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 4: they went to the Commerce finals again, like it's just 210 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 4: you can do that in the NBA. It's one of 211 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 4: the It's one of the reasons why I'm like, are 212 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 4: the Pistons really that good? Are they really that good? 213 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 3: It could listen, this could just be regular season magic. 214 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 3: Then you know that it could just be he the 215 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 3: trying hard, and then in the postseason when it becomes 216 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 3: a half court game and they call it a little tighter, 217 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 3: and then you need a bucket. Outside of Booker, Yeah, like, 218 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 3: outside of Booker, I don't know who scares you. Yeah, sure, 219 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 3: Grayson Allen could go nuclear, maybe Jalen Green emerges, maybe 220 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 3: Dylan Brooks is automatic, but they unlikely that they will 221 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 3: be similar to Detroit. You know, outside of Kate Cunningham, 222 00:10:58,240 --> 00:10:59,199 Speaker 3: who scares you on that team? 223 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 4: You know, the Suns are going to give a team 224 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 4: in the first round a little bit of a scare. 225 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 4: But you're never gonna say, well, Oklahoma City almost lost 226 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,079 Speaker 4: that one. You're gonna say, oh God, Oklahoma City really 227 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 4: wish they would have wrapped up Phoenix in five games 228 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 4: instead of six games and two of them went into overtime. 229 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 4: Because now they're gassed going up against the San Antonio 230 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 4: Spurs in the Western Conference finals. That's what I think 231 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 4: you're gonna be talking about this, which is a great 232 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 4: place to be for this team who's again just trying 233 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 4: to turn the chapter from he who shall not be named, 234 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 4: once again running through an organization and not working out. 235 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,719 Speaker 3: At the end of the year six playoff wins, the 236 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 3: Veterans just going up firing shots at Kevin Durant. All right, 237 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 3: let's pivot to Kyler Murray, a guy you have defended 238 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 3: and loved, and I get it, he's your quarterback. You 239 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 3: gotta offend him. Yeah, I'm trying to think of a 240 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 3: scenario where he returns. Is what would you say the 241 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 3: percentage fifty to fifty means out We'll see. I don't know. 242 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 3: I'm closer to like ten percent. It almost feels like 243 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 3: they would rather just absorb the dead cap hit and 244 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,719 Speaker 3: move on and start to rebuild, as opposed to keep 245 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 3: him on the roster. Where are you at? 246 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 4: Two conversations that we had one should they should they 247 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 4: keep Kyler Murray around? There's a really good argument that 248 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,079 Speaker 4: they should. Oh, question number question number two is because 249 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 4: it's just not like, let's answer that really quickly. The 250 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 4: problem is, what, like, what else are they going to 251 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 4: do like. 252 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 3: Suck and get a high draft pick next year. You're 253 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 3: in the tough market. 254 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 4: So you and I would do that, right and Madden 255 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 4: in a Madden simulation, we do that and get the 256 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:29,839 Speaker 4: best pick and grab. 257 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 3: I don't know, no, I would advise them to do 258 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 3: that if they called me up and said, Jay back 259 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 3: and you could sell. What what's the game plan? I 260 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 3: mean that's a hard truth. 261 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 4: Well, they kept their GP, who's fifteen and thirty six 262 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 4: in his career. You think next. 263 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 3: Year he doesn't want to right, Yeah, but the owner 264 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 3: is going to override anything crazy. The owner tries to 265 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 3: do right. One of the worst owners, well, you know, golly. 266 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 4: Him and Jets Woody. I don't know Woody Johnson or 267 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 4: spar but at least Jimmy Haslam is a football guy. 268 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 4: Michael Bill is not a football guy. 269 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 3: He's a he went on third base. 270 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 4: He's born on third base into generational wealth and really 271 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 4: wants to be seen as someone that met like similar 272 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 4: like Jerry Jones, where Jerry Jones is like an oil guy. 273 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 4: Michael Biddell's got like a degree in law. He was 274 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,079 Speaker 4: a former federal prosecutor. He doesn't know what the hell 275 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 4: he's doing. 276 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 3: He's Jerry Jerry. Jerry bought the Cowboys, right, this guy 277 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:22,239 Speaker 3: got handed. 278 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 4: Either absolutely absolute. Yeah, you're right. I was giving Michael 279 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 4: Biddle a little too much praise. I appreciate you for 280 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:27,319 Speaker 4: knocking back. 281 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 3: No, nobody really likes him. But okay, so let's say 282 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 3: you you don't have a better option. So we're gonna 283 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 3: run it back with Kyler Murray. 284 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 4: Right. 285 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 3: The fans not. That's not inspiring. He's not gonna galvanize 286 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 3: the troops. 287 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 4: That's not popular. 288 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 3: Here're the fourth best team in the division, with or 289 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 3: without Kyler. Why don't you just start the rebuild now? 290 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 4: Well, I would agree with that. I would. I would 291 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 4: bought him out next year. I just got done doing 292 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 4: a different show, and I just said, listen, we might 293 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 4: want them to go three and fourteen, four and thirteen, 294 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 4: but everyone wants that to happen until the season starts 295 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 4: and you're getting your brain beat in for eighteen straight 296 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 4: weeks against numerous different teams and struggling to beat up 297 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 4: on the Titans and Bob Sala like those types of things, 298 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 4: Like you could do that and it's a viable path, 299 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 4: Like you did a thing the other da NBA like 300 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 4: tanking kind of works, but for better or worse, that's 301 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 4: not what they're gonna do because Manti Austin for is 302 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 4: GMing for his job this year, and if they win 303 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 4: four games, he's fired. Like I mean, I don't know, 304 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 4: Bidwell's done a lot of dumb things before. Maybe he 305 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 4: does keep him around. 306 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 3: But well, if they get the number one pick, and 307 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 3: let's say the draft picks hit, they're competitive. They're not 308 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 3: losing every game by twenty like the Jets. They're losing. Oh, 309 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 3: they lose by three to the Seahawks at home in 310 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 3: a Barnberg. They dropped by one to the Rams. Oh, 311 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 3: they were fighting so hard. You know, it's it's how 312 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 3: you lose sometimes, Like Aaron Glenn lost the room in 313 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 3: New York, but he was trying out a rookie quarterback 314 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 3: who nobody even wanted there. And they're getting blasted by 315 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 3: twenty five by TUA and they're not even competitive. That's 316 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 3: how you got the And I think Arizona just on 317 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 3: sheer talent alone, should be okay to compete. 318 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 4: No, Arizona's got talent. That's one of the things where 319 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 4: when people look at this roster is there's some like 320 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 4: big holes like right tackle, massive gaping hole, but there's 321 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 4: not like numerous ones of those, Like should they could 322 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 4: they use another edge rusher? Sure, but like Josh, what's 323 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 4: really good? It's not like they have no one there. 324 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 4: They both of their cornerbacks to start the season, and 325 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 4: Starlink Thomas and Sean Murphy Bunting, who were gonna start, 326 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 4: didn't play a singular game this year because they got injured. 327 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 4: The Cardinals statistically speaking, were the most injured team in 328 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 4: the NFL last year, so they're gonna get a bunch 329 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 4: of guys back too. But like the to the Kyler point, 330 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 4: it's just like, if you want to stay competitive and 331 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 4: win seven games, you could track Kyler Murray back out there, 332 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 4: or you could outright cut him for nothing. Like the 333 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 4: scuttle butt is that's what's going to happen. I can't buy, 334 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 4: and I'll wait till it happens to say I'm wrong. 335 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 4: There's no way someone doesn't give him a fifth round 336 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 4: pick for Kyler. But everyone and smart people smarter than 337 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 4: me are telling me he is going to get cut, 338 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 4: and that's because he's got a roster bonus do here 339 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 4: in like two weeks of like twenty million dollars and 340 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 4: then kicks in his contract being get you know, more 341 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 4: guaranteed than it was before. They're gonna move on from him, 342 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 4: like the the the percentage is zero. The question is 343 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 4: what's the better move, And the better move is they're 344 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 4: gonna they're gonna move on from him, and someone is 345 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 4: going and they're gonna go goa ring someone and I 346 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 4: think it's gonna be Malik Willis. 347 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 3: Oh okay. So they lost six of their final nine 348 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 3: games by seventeen or more. That's not competing. Early on, 349 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 3: remember they were two and zero. Then they lost by 350 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 3: one to the Niners, three to the Seahawks, one to Tennessee. 351 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 3: That one broke the camel's back, four to Indy Florida 352 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 3: Green Bay. They were competitive before the buye come out 353 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 3: of the by beat Dallas, and then after that it 354 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 3: was just open season and they couldn't do anything. So 355 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 3: you finish kind of meekly, and that's why Gannon got dusted. 356 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 3: But as soon as I saw Floor hired, I was like, wow, 357 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 3: the Floor, I mean his brother. If you like Malik Willis, 358 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 3: why wouldn't he try to get Maliki? Because I do 359 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 3: believe if you put Malik Willis in there, Ben, you 360 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 3: probably win seven. 361 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:11,719 Speaker 1: Or eight games. 362 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 3: I mean they lost one one score game two, seven 363 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 3: of them seven games three or lass. So I mean, 364 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 3: if you imagine if you flip four of those, then 365 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 3: you're a seven win team. Malik Willis is probably worth 366 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 3: half a win to a win healthy James Connor. I 367 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 3: mean the running back room was decimated, so you could 368 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 3: argue maybe they win a games. I just don't know 369 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 3: where that gets you. Like, Okay, you win a can 370 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 3: you the next year make the playoffs in the NFC? 371 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: No? 372 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 4: Absolutely not this team like forget making the playoffs. Like Jason, 373 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 4: I went on the Herd with you and said, I 374 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 4: thought this team is a dark horse conference championship contender in. 375 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 3: Yeah years away from that. 376 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 4: My not my best swing, not my best swing from 377 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 4: from because I I just I believed in Kyler. I 378 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:05,119 Speaker 4: don't anymore. I believed in Jonathan Gannon. Obviously probably not great. 379 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 4: I saw you guys propping up Drew Petsing the other 380 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 4: day on the Herd. 381 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 3: Don't put me in the would you like it? I 382 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 3: don't know that one. 383 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 4: He's a terrible offensive coordinator. He's a terrible offensive coordinator 384 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 4: because one of the things he can't do is one 385 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 4: of the things he keeps on going on podcasts and 386 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 4: saying is you got to put your players in the 387 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,640 Speaker 4: best positions to succeed. He never did that. He never 388 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,919 Speaker 4: did that if he goes to Detrop I think, so 389 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,919 Speaker 4: here's two things are true. I think Drew Petsing shared 390 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 4: a little too much blame for the Cardinals and how 391 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 4: bad they were. 392 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: But also. 393 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 4: He's a bottom third offensive coordinator in the NFL as 394 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 4: of right now. He had a couple of strong running games. 395 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,719 Speaker 4: He didn't duplicate that this year. How much of that 396 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 4: was Clayton Adams, the offensive line coach for the Arizona Cardinals, 397 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 4: who's the OC for the Dallas Cowboys this year, and 398 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 4: that offense looked really good, Like the Cardinals could not 399 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 4: run the ball this year. Marvin Harrison Junior, you know 400 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 4: he's liking all my posts on TikTok going after him, 401 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 4: but he's not. He hasn't performed yet, and you need 402 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 4: to put him in more positions to succeed. 403 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 3: Too. 404 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 4: Many, like Detroit Lions fans are going to do pull 405 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 4: their hair out when they see Drew Petsing concede possessions 406 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 4: because they're third and twelve. Because they're third and eight, 407 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 4: He's gonna run a draw screen up the middle and 408 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 4: Lions fans are gonna be frustrated. What are we doing here? 409 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 4: We got a Monro Saint Brown, we got you know, 410 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 4: Jamison Williams. Why are we throwing the ball downfield? That's 411 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 4: not his playbook? I'll tell you what by Sam Laporto 412 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 4: stock next year because he knows how to feed his 413 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 4: tight ends. Yeah, I'm really I think that was Gannon 414 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 4: getting in the ear of someone in Detroit saying, hire 415 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,880 Speaker 4: my guy. I will vouch for him, and he's continued 416 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 4: to do that. 417 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 3: I don't know. 418 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 4: It's not great, it's I wouldn't be thrilled with that 419 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 4: oc higher if I was. If I was. JG. Me 420 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 4: and Benjamin Slokee of ESPN went on each other for 421 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 4: that one too. 422 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 423 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 1: the nation.

I thought he was really good. I'm 427 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 3: looking you guys didn't have a ninety yard rusher all season. 428 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 3: Damn now. Connor was missed a bunch of time. 429 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 4: The reason why they didn't cut Amari de Murcatto like 430 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 4: they begged them to do when he punted the ball 431 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,679 Speaker 4: into the end zone against the Titans was because they 432 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,239 Speaker 4: were decimated at running back. Trey Benson was out for 433 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 4: eight weeks, James Connor snapped his leg, Mari de Murcatto 434 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 4: was injured. At one point, they were running out there, 435 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 4: Jets legend Michael Carter and Bam Knight. 436 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 3: We just ran there. 437 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 4: We just ran the Jets twenty nineteen, running back room 438 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 4: out there like it's not great and so like they've 439 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 4: got issues there. It's one of the things where they 440 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 4: keep connecting Britest Hall of the Cardinals, and I'm like, 441 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 4: let's no, thank you. They're not that close now, Jets. 442 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 3: It sounds like they have decided they're gonna either tag 443 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 3: him or or transition him. Either way, he's not going towhere. 444 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 3: I love Reesol, So let's see Jacoby Brissett, Kyler, Murray 445 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 3: Keaton Slovs is the third stringer. And I don't know 446 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 3: why everybody's so anti And again, I know guys want 447 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 3: to keep tying. I'm talking more fans. Do the fans 448 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 3: who you talk to and and comment and watch do 449 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 3: they are they embracing the tank for the opportunity at 450 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 3: Arch Manning or the kid from Notre Dame or the 451 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 3: kid from South Carolina, or whoever comes out of nowhere 452 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 3: and is the next cam Ward Francisco Mando. There is 453 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 3: seems to be one every year, a guy who pops 454 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 3: that we didn't see coming? Or would you rather do that? 455 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 3: Go that route? 456 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,439 Speaker 4: Well, I would rather tank, Like what would be the 457 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 4: most mature thing to do that? Well, don't give Malik 458 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 4: Willis thirty five million dollars a year? 459 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: Evil? 460 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 3: Okay, maybe we'll pi if I understand the number you 461 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,400 Speaker 3: would give Malik Willis, that makes sense. 462 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 4: I would give him up to Sam Darnolds three year, 463 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 4: a hundred million dollar contract. And it's not it's not 464 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 4: like I under stand like, wait a minute. 465 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 3: Wait, Darnold went fourteen and three. It was awesome in Minnesota. Yeah, 466 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 3: what did Willis to? 467 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 4: I just said the argument we just had on the 468 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 4: on so over and are locked on thirty five passes. 469 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 4: I totally agree with you, obviously that honestly, that might 470 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 4: be a bit much. I'll go there. But three years 471 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 4: ninety million, Wow. 472 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 3: What about two for forty Maybe we'll give him a 473 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 3: little more than the justice. 474 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 4: Okay, So absolutely so before that because before people turn 475 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 4: this offul I would agree with you. Two years forty 476 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:33,959 Speaker 4: million is what I thought it would be. But I 477 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 4: just saw a report from Ian Rappaport today and I 478 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 4: just used the second a second ago where he talked 479 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 4: about if New York Jets quarterback Justin Field's got twenty 480 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 4: million dollars a year, what does Malik Willis get thirty 481 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 4: thirty five million. That's my guess as to what it is. 482 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 4: So if he's report are saying that there, okay, so okay, 483 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 4: So if it if it's twenty million dollars a year, 484 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 4: then absolutely that's what I want it to be. But 485 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 4: the argument like, none of that really, none of that 486 00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 4: really matters to me. Even if it's three or one 487 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 4: hudred million, which again insane, ridiculous, immature number. What do 488 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 4: the Cardinals have to lose? If Malik Willis is awesome 489 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,679 Speaker 4: next year, then the Cardinals rebound quickly and they've got 490 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 4: the quarterback of the future and he's actually on a 491 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 4: cheap deal. Now if he's terrible and they front load 492 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,880 Speaker 4: the contract. They just draft his replacement next year, they 493 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 4: eat his salary. 494 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 3: But I thought we just agreed. There's a world where 495 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 3: Malik Willis gets them three or four more wins, and 496 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 3: if you're in the six to seven win range, you're 497 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 3: not drafted in top three or four, and now you're 498 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 3: missing out on the elite quarterbacks. 499 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 4: Right well, I think if Malik Willis gets them to 500 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 4: six seven wins, I think you're talking about, Oh, you 501 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 4: might have a franchise quarterback here, Cardinals. Cardinals have other 502 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 4: issues too, Like Jason, forget about the Cardinals being a 503 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 4: playoff team this year. They are close to being the 504 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 4: third place team in their own division. Yes, so like 505 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,120 Speaker 4: they're far away. So that's why I say, like six 506 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 4: to seven wins, that means they might have lost five 507 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 4: games to Kyle Shit, Mike McDonald and Sean McVay. 508 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 3: Like, but they're not going any football. So I did 509 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 3: just look it up. Malik Willis is represented by David Mullagetta. 510 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 3: That that that's bad news for somebody. He's a really 511 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 3: good agent. He got Micah Parsons out of Green Bay, right, 512 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 3: I would suspect he's working on CJ. Stroud and an 513 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 3: exit strategy. Even know the Titan Texas do not want 514 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 3: to move him, and I'm not saying it's happening yet, 515 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,400 Speaker 3: but Mulligeta seems to get what he wants for his clients. 516 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 3: And maybe somebody's going to overpay for Malik Willis. But man, 517 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 3: it's gonna be the car thirty to thirty five millions. 518 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 4: There's only one. 519 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 3: So one of the reasons, well, the Dolphins, the Dolphins, 520 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,719 Speaker 3: the money GM. They don't GM is the guy who 521 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 3: came from Green Bay. Their coach was the Packers DC 522 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 3: and the new like advisor to the to the front 523 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 3: office is the guy who drafted Malik Willis. So there's 524 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 3: a lot of interest there. Now you pointed out the 525 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 3: they're they're strapped. We know that the salary cap is 526 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 3: just a figment of our imagination and anybody could work 527 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,400 Speaker 3: magic around it. So if they really want him, they'll 528 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 3: figure that out. Would you would you agree? 529 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 4: They've got three million in cap space right now and 530 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 4: they're gonna be in the red when some of these 531 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 4: others contracts kicks in. That's why they're telling everyone, Hey, 532 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 4: we're open for business on Michaeh Parson or on Minka 533 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 4: Fitzpatrick when in reality they've just got they've got to 534 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 4: cut him soon. So I actually think Malik Willis would 535 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,439 Speaker 4: prefer to go to Miami potentially because it's it's familiarity. 536 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 4: But you kind of got to get yours. And if 537 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 4: the Cardinals are offering you two years fifty million dollars 538 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 4: and Miami's offering you two years thirty million dollars, like 539 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,719 Speaker 4: you might not you you might not even be sure 540 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 4: if you're a starting quarterback of this league and you 541 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 4: got to get yours. I think there's only which is 542 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 4: why I should have never thrown out the Sam Darnold contract. 543 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 4: That was kind of crazy, but. 544 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 3: Well not it's crazy hearing what Rapaport is. 545 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 4: The only suitors. Well you're true, and I. 546 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,880 Speaker 3: Okay, let's go through it. Who are the other potential shooters. 547 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 3: The Jets are not going to do it, There's just 548 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 3: no way. No, that'd be crazy. The Browns have too 549 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 3: many quarterbacks on the roster. Have him. I'm looking in 550 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 3: the NFC, I don't Falcons are probably not going to 551 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,360 Speaker 3: do it, right, they have Pennis. 552 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 4: I think now they're not super They've got eleven million 553 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 4: dollars in cap space. Are they gonna do they feel 554 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 4: like they need, Like the Falcons make way more sense 555 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 4: for Kyler Murray. Like if they're gonna strap, if they're 556 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 4: going to hitch their wagon to someone, it's gonna be 557 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 4: Kyler Murray. Like that would make more sense. 558 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 3: What about like a Colts team that needs a quarterback 559 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 3: for half the season with Daniel Jones likely out of 560 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh Steelers team. 561 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 4: Well, the Colts are gonna tag Daniel Jones And what 562 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:36,919 Speaker 4: is that and what is that contract going to be? 563 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 4: Fifty million dollars? 564 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 3: Cut off an Achilles? 565 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 4: No way, Well, but it's a it's a franchise tag, 566 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 4: it's it's a it's a it's a it's a combination 567 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 4: of the of the top three contracts in the NFL. 568 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:48,959 Speaker 4: So they don't get to decide that way. 569 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:50,360 Speaker 3: And I don't think you could tag him. I think 570 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 3: you got to just give him a deal, a team 571 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 3: friendly deal, because nobody else is signing it. 572 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 4: So let's say they give let's say he gets forty 573 00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:00,080 Speaker 4: million dollars a year with the Colts, because let's say 574 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 4: thirty five, you're gonna give thirty five to him and 575 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 4: another fifteen to Milik Wills that's. 576 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 3: Well, what ifructured it so that he doesn't get a 577 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,959 Speaker 3: lot this coming year and there's no pressure in it 578 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,399 Speaker 3: because he's coming off the major injury. I mean, the 579 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 3: Colts need somebody. They they do want to make the playoffs, 580 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 3: given that they were what seven and one, eight and 581 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,679 Speaker 3: one and then trade for Sauce Gardner. I mean, they 582 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 3: they're loaded freezing. They gotta come through. I mean Minnesota Vikings, 583 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 3: they got a quarterback on the rookie deal, but. 584 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 4: They that's another team. Because I've talked with people in Minnesota, 585 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,199 Speaker 4: I have decent ties that people cover the team Minnesota. 586 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 4: They're interested in Kyler Murray, but they're like, we can't 587 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,719 Speaker 4: afford him. Like that's why the Kyler Murray market is 588 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 4: might be just he's outright cut is because they can't 589 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 4: just outrighte trade for him because they don't have the 590 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 4: cap space to do so. Like the Cardinals again, maybe 591 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 4: the Colts, like that's interesting. The Steelers. Again, I don't 592 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 4: know the Steelers cap situation, but that could be interesting. 593 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 4: But like you have to like the Cardinals are also 594 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 4: acting out of desperation, which is never a good place 595 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 4: to act out because they're GM's on the hot seat. 596 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 4: Mike McCarthy's not in the hot seat. Shane Steten's definitely 597 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 4: not on the hot seats because it's because his quarterback's injured. 598 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 4: Like when you talk about desperation and the most dollars, 599 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:13,919 Speaker 4: I think the Cardinals are gonna be even if I'm like, 600 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 4: this doesn't feel very mature, it feels like that's what's 601 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 4: going to happen. That's what we saw from Tony Pauline yesterday, 602 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 4: who reported Cardinals appear to be the favorites for him. 603 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: Wow. 604 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is gonna be a pretty wild off season 605 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 3: at quarterback. And I don't mean that in a good way. 606 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 3: There's just nobody really good. 607 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 4: Let me ask you this really quickly. 608 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 3: I think it makes sense to punt and be bad, 609 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 3: but I know that's a tough sell to your owner 610 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 3: unless you outline this ridiculous height. We got a great 611 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 3: three year plan, which is tough. Two year plan might 612 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 3: be better. 613 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 4: Where do you think Kyler Murray lands unemployment line? 614 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 3: Food tips don't don't. I don't know. Would you rather 615 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 3: go after Tua or Kyler Murray if they're both, If 616 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 3: they're both, if you're in Minnesota, who's less of a headache. 617 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 3: Kyler or Tua. 618 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 4: That's a really good question. I'd rather have Tua. I'd 619 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 4: rather have Tua. He is he he. The injury concern 620 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 4: is a big deal, But what's Kyler's injury concerned? You 621 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 4: just missed eleven games, so Tua metractive. I think Kyler 622 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 4: ends up in Minnesota though. 623 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, one of those probably ends up in Minnesota. All right, 624 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 3: we could wrap up Ben. Yeah, what's the most shocking 625 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 3: thing you've learned about fatherhood now that you've got a 626 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 3: little baby. 627 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 4: I actually didn't realize how much I would love it 628 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 4: in early Here's why. Here's why. Here's why. Because everyone 629 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 4: told me, you know, man, you're gonna get no sleep, 630 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 4: and you're gonna hate changing diapers, and you're gonna like 631 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 4: it's gonna be really hard. It is really hard, and 632 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 4: I'm working on about two brain cells and four hours 633 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 4: of sleep since my daughter has been born. But there's 634 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 4: something is really cool about the middle of the night 635 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 4: my daughter screaming, and I get up and I'm the 636 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 4: only person who can help rock her, Like that's a 637 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 4: fun bonding moment to have with my daughter. And we're 638 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 4: just hanging out at one am and trying to soothe 639 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 4: her back to sleep. The other thing is I knew 640 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 4: I wasn't ready, because no one's ready. You didn't know 641 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 4: I didn't know how not ready I was. And what 642 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 4: continues to ring through my head was something you said 643 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 4: on the Herd years ago. It was like, I don't 644 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 4: know what the I don't know what the situation was, 645 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 4: but you were like, it's kind of crazy that you 646 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 4: have this kid and the hospital just says, okay, see 647 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 4: you later, take care of that human, make sure it 648 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 4: doesn't die. And I've just that's always bring up like 649 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 4: I don't have any experience. I'm just winging it, and 650 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 4: so I enjoy it, but also like I was, I 651 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:45,959 Speaker 4: definitely am not ready. 652 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, you just triggered a memory.
