So I 14 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: saw his story, Mike McCarthy to the Steelers Blairs, the 15 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: headline why he'd be the right fit for Mike Tomlin, 16 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: right fit in Pittsburgh to replace Mike Tomlin. Okay, we 17 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,400 Speaker 1: get at Pittsburgh. You have blue collar people, you like 18 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: your own. You don't have to keep reminding us. Mike 19 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: McCarthy isn't just older, he's old school. That was Mike mctomlin. 20 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: Right tone, deff to one side of the ball, A 21 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: lot of penalties, five years McCarthy was in Dallas, they 22 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: averaged seven penalties a game, led the NFL. You know 23 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,839 Speaker 1: who has the fewest penalties in the NFL this year, 24 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:37,400 Speaker 1: Sean McVay, Kyle Shanahan. In fact, the four least penalized teams, 25 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: four young offensive coaches McVeigh, Shanahan, Zach Taylor, Dave Canalis. 26 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: That's the NFL, and just because you're older doesn't mean 27 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 1: you have to be old. Kurt Signetti is sixty four, 28 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: just one to Natty. Have you heard about how he 29 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: recruit roots and his view on athletes. It's very new school. 30 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: Like McVeigh. His teams don't get penalized, fewest penalties fbs, 31 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: they don't drop passes like mcveag's teams, they don't fumble. 32 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: Signetti maybe sixty four. He is all about quarterback playing details. 33 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: Richard Branson late seventies, still cool, still hip, still with it. 34 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: Jensen Wang sixty two, founder of Nvidia. I mean innovative, sharp, progressive. 35 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin Mike McCarthy are kind of the same guy. 36 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 1: Their football teams are loose, a lot of penalties. What 37 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: works in the NFL today is young coaches. Jamiko Ryans McVeigh, 38 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: young coaches who think young, making trades in season, Howie 39 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:04,679 Speaker 1: Roseman moving off tone deaf coaches, pivoting off quarterbacks and players, 40 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 1: finding your next quarterback and putting him on a rookie 41 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: deal for four or five years as you build a roster. 42 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: All four things Steelers haven't done well. Mike Tomlin. Before 43 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers got there, they had a penalty problem. Aaron 44 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: cleaned up the offensive side of that and didn't throw 45 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: as many picks. Suddenly they look detailed. Now that's Aaron Rodgers. 46 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: I got nothing against Mike McCarthy and Pittsburgh, but Pittsburgh 47 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,079 Speaker 1: doesn't do this hiring thing and they get a lot 48 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: of credit for it. 49 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh is loyal. 50 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: The problem is they're like the guy who was married 51 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: for thirty five years and now gets divorced and is 52 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: single and thinks app is short for appetizer at Chili's, 53 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: Like he doesn't understand dating apps. They didn't have iPhones 54 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 1: social media when he got married. And that's Pittsburgh, Tomlin 55 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: and McCarthy. That's the same guy. Good coach, little light, 56 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: little loose on the details. I mean McCarthy's cowboy teams 57 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: awful with clock management, bad with penalties. Go look at 58 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: mcveigh's team this week in Chicago in horrible weather for 59 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: a warm weather team. Zero drop passes, zero penalties, zero turnovers. 60 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: That's what's happening in the NFL right now. 61 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 3: It's changed. 62 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 1: So and the Steelers they don't just date head coaches. 63 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: They say I love you and propose after the first date. 64 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: Like whoever they hire. They're here for fifteen years, ten minimum. 65 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: And I got nothing against Mike McCarthy. I wouldn't put 66 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,039 Speaker 1: him in the elite seven, eight nine top coaches, but 67 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 1: he's in that second tier with Tomlin. Very very good, 68 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: but old school. 69 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 3: Again. 70 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,600 Speaker 1: I'm not anti, I'm not agis. I'm older, gray hair, 71 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: lots of it. See, but you gotta be young, you know, 72 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: you gotta think young. That's what's happened to gms in 73 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: this league. You gotta pivot off guys, you gotta make 74 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: in season trades. Cincinnati, I don't know how old the 75 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: owner is, they think old. Philadelphia. I don't know how 76 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: old the owner is. They think young. So I just 77 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: look at McCarthy, Tomlin, Okay, I know you like Pittsburgh guys, 78 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: one of us. 79 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 3: I get it. 80 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: That's not working and winning in this league right now. 81 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 1: You can be a defensive coach, Demiko Ryans, Mike McDonald young, 82 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: sharp with it, moving off people that don't work, making moves, trades, 83 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: at least understand offense, have a feel. 84 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 3: For it, not tone deaf to it. So I know it. 85 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 1: Just Pittsburgh's like, listen, the way we're doing things works, 86 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: let's go get the next version, kind of an offensive 87 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: version of Tomlin. 88 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 3: That's not it. Here's Art Rooney on the Steelers coaching stir. 89 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 4: Nowadays, there a number of protocols we have to follow 90 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 4: that are sort of really designed to slow the process down. 91 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 4: And so, as I say, it'll probably take at least 92 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 4: a few weeks. Could I sign up for another Chuck 93 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 4: nol or another Bill Kauer or another Mike Tomlin. Sure 94 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 4: that you know somebody that we feel fits that mold 95 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 4: would be great, But for now, we're not going to 96 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 4: kind of narrow the box too much. 97 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 1: So when Jim Harbaugh got hired by the Chargers, Jim 98 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: Harbaugh's in his sixty but he came off and always 99 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: has is very boyish, very young. John Harbaugh similarly gets 100 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: hired by the New York Giants. I mean, he feels 101 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: like he's thirty seven years old. He is so excited. 102 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: Everything out of his mouth. He's so excited. And I've 103 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: said the New York Jet. When you list the teams 104 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: that won four games last year, tell me which one 105 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: doesn't feel the same. Jets, Arizona, Tennessee, Vegas, New York Giants. 106 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: The Giants had seven one score losses. In fact, they 107 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: led three really solid teams Denver, Chicago, and Detroit by 108 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: double digits in the fourth quarter. They got leads, they 109 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: couldn't keep them. The Giants had a better point differential 110 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: than the Carolina Panthers, who. 111 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 3: Won a division. 112 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,679 Speaker 1: The New York Giants are a right tackle, probably another receiver, 113 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: and a couple of dudes in the secondary from being 114 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: an eleven win team. They have needs. The whole league does. 115 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: Outside of Seattle. Everybody's got needs. But there are good 116 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: losses in football. When the Bears lost to the Rams, 117 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: that's a good loss. You may have lost to the 118 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: best team in the best coach in football. And I 119 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: mean you go into the offseason thinking we can play 120 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: with anybody. We're one play to play with anybody. The 121 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: Texans losing to the Patriots is a bad loss. They 122 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: don't even know if they like the quarterback anymore. So 123 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: you can be a four or five win team. Look 124 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: at it and go, we got to get a right tackle, 125 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: another receiver, probably a tight end, and some secondary help. 126 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 1: But I mean watching Jim Harbaugh get hired by the Chargers. 127 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:59,119 Speaker 1: He's boyish. And my theme today is you can be old. 128 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: You got a young You can be in your sixties 129 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: or seventies in the coach. 130 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 3: You can't. 131 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: I'm okay with it, but you gotta You gotta be 132 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: somebody that wakes up optimistic, not cynical, that understands offense, 133 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: can appreciate defense. Here's John Harball sounding young and like 134 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: the right choice on Jackson Dartis quarterback. 135 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 5: You build your team around your quarterback. I mean that's 136 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 5: you build your team around your players and what they 137 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,679 Speaker 5: do well. And i'd like. I like the way he plays, 138 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 5: malic his talent, skill set, all things he accomplished. But 139 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 5: more than that, I like I like who he is 140 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 5: and what he's about to me is about football. I 141 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 5: mean this, this young guy loves football. He wants to 142 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,559 Speaker 5: talk football all the time, and you know, and uh, 143 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 5: and that's kind of what I like doing too, So 144 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 5: I think we're gonna have a lot of great conversations. 145 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 5: I can't wait to get started with him. 146 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: So the other thing that's important and instructive here, when 147 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: you hire John Harball in the NFC East, you immediately 148 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: first day on the job today had the best coach 149 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 1: in the division, and yet they were only a four 150 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: win team. If Las Vegas hires a coach with Andy Reid, 151 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh, and Sean Payton, you probably still have the 152 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: fourth best coach. 153 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 3: In the division. 154 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: If Arizona hires a coach today with McVeigh, Mike McDonald 155 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 1: and Shanahan, you probably have the fourth best coach in 156 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: the division. Even if you get a guy that works, 157 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: John Harbaugh today doesn't just feel right this morning. Best 158 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: coach in the division, and we don't know Jackson Dart 159 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: you can at least argue if he stays out of 160 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: the blue tent. Because Jade and Daniel's injuries now are 161 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,319 Speaker 1: a concern. Do you have the best quarterback in the division. 162 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,959 Speaker 1: We'll know by Thanksgiving. Next Thanksgiving, we'll have a feel 163 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: for it. So it would I've said this about the Giants. 164 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,959 Speaker 1: Four win teams are not all the same. Playoff law 165 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,199 Speaker 1: are not all the same. I mean, Denver feels terrible, 166 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: but they just watched bo Nicks out play Josh Allen. 167 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: If you're the Denver Broncos, win or lose this week, 168 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: you go into the offseason thinking we're there, We're ready 169 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: to hoist a trophy. And the Giants at four wins 170 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: that do not confuse them with Tennessee or an Arizona 171 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 1: or a Las Vegas or the Jets. Not the say 172 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 1: John Harbaugh could have taken a lot of gigs, why 173 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 1: did he step up really quickly, see this one and 174 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: take it. Okay, We've got a lot of stuff today, 175 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: and generally speaking, I think whatever the country thinks, whatever 176 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: you think. As fans, I'm usually aligned with you. I've said, 177 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: there's a couple of things that you love that I 178 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: don't care about. 179 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 3: The home run derby. It's like batting practice. 180 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: You love it. I don't get the Pro Bowl. Every 181 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: year I see the TV rating for the Pro Bowl. 182 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: I've never watched one. It's a practice football. I'd rather 183 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 1: watch an exhibition game from a team that I'll monitor. Mostly, though, 184 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: what you like, I like, you like March madness, you 185 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: like the Masters, you like the NFL, you like what 186 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: I like. But here's where you and I totally, absolutely, 187 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: inarguably disagree. There is one thing that I think and 188 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 1: you will totally disagree, and it just so happens I'm right. 189 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: And that's next in Chicago. 190 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 3: It's the Hurd. 191 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Herd weekdays 192 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 2: and noon eastern non am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio 193 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 2: FS one and the iHeartRadio app. 194 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 6: Hey is Capino and Rich from Fox Sports Radio Now, 195 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 6: in addition to hearing us live weekdays from five to 196 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 6: seven pm Eastern two to four Pacific on Fox Sports Radio, 197 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 6: We're excited to announce a brand new YouTube channel for 198 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 6: the show.

I mean 207 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 3: we do. 208 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: I mean, day to day we may disagree on a 209 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: football pick. You like the home run Derby more than 210 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: I do in the Pro Bowl, but buy in large 211 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: what you like I like, and the way you think 212 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: is mostly how I think I would say. More than anything, 213 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: people come up to me and go, hey, I think 214 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: your show is pretty common sense. Believe it or not, 215 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: that's what they say. But here's something where I just 216 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: totally disagree. There's too much fear mongering out there. I 217 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: saw this quote major League Baseball owners are enraged by 218 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: Kyle Tucker to the Dodgers deal. They will push for 219 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 1: US salary cap no matter what. It took a Kyle 220 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: Tucker move to outrage you. Cub Fans complained about. 221 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,839 Speaker 3: Them all year. They wanted them out of town. 222 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: Did you forget about the Angels spending three hundred and 223 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: eighty million dollars fifteen years ago or close to it 224 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: on Albert Poolholz and Josh Hamilton, which if you look 225 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: at what that's worth today with inflation, it's five hundred 226 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: and forty million. That didn't bother anybody, welly cause the 227 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 1: Angels are poorly run. It didn't change outcomes. The Yankees 228 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: in twenty ten, the four highest paid players check check 229 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: check check four Yankees four for four. But they're not 230 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: considered well run. And even though they spent a ton 231 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: every year and a half for thirty years in the 232 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: last ten to fifteen, it doesn't change outcomes. 233 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 3: That doesn't bother you. The Dodgers aren't just rich. That's 234 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 3: not it. Let's keep it one hundred. 235 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 1: They're rich and exceptionally well run and winning the World Series. 236 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 1: That's what bothers you. Juan Soto Yankees Mets didn't bother 237 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 1: you because he went to the Mets. They'll gag they're 238 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 1: the Mets. Studies have shown you can be rich and unattractive, 239 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 1: or handsome and poor, and men aren't necessarily jealous of you. 240 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: But if you're rich and good looking, study show men 241 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 1: hate you. 242 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 3: And that's the Dodgers. 243 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: They are rich, good looking, driving a convertible, own a 244 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: tech company, and keep being the richest guy in the sport, 245 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: and it pisses You'll off. 246 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 3: It's not just about the money. Kyle Tucker outrages you. 247 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: Mookie Betts was arguably the best player in the American League. 248 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 3: Not a peep. 249 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: Josh Hamilton, Albert Pulhols Angels, not a peep. Twenty ten 250 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: Yankees had all the highest paid players. I don't know 251 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: nobody in New York was outraged. Steve Cohens trying to 252 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: put together an all star team Crickets. Kyle Tucker in 253 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: playoff career is a two thirty hitter. Chicago complained about 254 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: them all year. That's the guy that sets you off. No, 255 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: what sets you off is that Game seven winning back 256 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: to back World Series titles. 257 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 3: Last year. 258 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: I had Dave Roberts on the show, the Dodger manager, 259 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: and I asked him about it. The Dodgers, like everybody said, 260 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 1: are ruining baseball. 261 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 7: Baseball viewership is at an all time high. Baseball players 262 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 7: are better than they've ever been. We are going to 263 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 7: have more eyeballs watching this World Series than ever because 264 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 7: of the country of Canada, US and Japan and beyond. Right, 265 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 7: So obviously the Dodgers are not ruining baseball. It's in 266 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 7: a great state. And I was just kind of taking 267 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 7: a dig at these crazy people that say that what 268 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 7: we do and I think we do it really well, 269 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 7: we're ruining baseball. 270 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 1: I don't remember a Game seven in Major League Baseball 271 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: in a division series, whatever series, you know, NLCS, ALCS 272 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: World Series of Game seven. I don't remember a game 273 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: seven that Rivetington last year glued every pitch Kyle Tucker 274 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: outrages you. That's the one. This morning I wrote down 275 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 1: in order, who I think are the top ten Dodger players. 276 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 1: I could be off on this, but I wrote a 277 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: list of the top ten Dodger players. I had Kyle 278 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: Tucker at eight, Shohey Mooki, Yoshi Freeman, Edwin Diaz, the 279 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: best reliever in baseball, Blake Snell went healthy, Will Smith, 280 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: great catcher, Kyle Tucker, Roki and Tiascar Hernandez by the way, 281 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: Taoscar Hernandez. I had recently at dinner with Tom Rickets, 282 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: the Cubs owner. What a great guy, and I asked 283 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: him about the Dodgers privately, but now I'll say it publicly. 284 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: He had nothing but respect and admiration. He goes to 285 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: the best run team in baseball, he goes, they happened 286 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: to be the richest team in baseball right now. He 287 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 1: goes to the best run team in baseball, He goes, 288 00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: I have total admiration for what they do. Andrew Friedman down. 289 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: They just know what they're doing. We should not be 290 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: eating and biting away at them. They've got a better 291 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: TV deal, better than R and D. And he was 292 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 1: very proud of the Cubs. I've had a great offseason, 293 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: fragment at third, got another top starting pitcher, Kyle Tucker left. 294 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: Cubs will be better. But what you should be mad 295 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:22,360 Speaker 1: about if you're a fan, isn't the Dodgers. It's Taoscar Hernandez, 296 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 1: the tenth best Dodger. Maybe it's Mac Munsei, but I 297 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: think Taoscar Hernandz is a beast. He's been available twice 298 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 1: to the sport and your billionaire owner didn't get him. 299 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: And he's a great player for the Dodgers at a 300 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: very reasonable number. Saint Louis could afford him, The Pirates 301 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:42,159 Speaker 1: billionaire could afford him, The Mariners could afford him, Detroit 302 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 1: could afford him, Cleveland could afford him. I'm not sure 303 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 1: if the A's could afford me. The point being a 304 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,400 Speaker 1: great player, he's been available to the Dodgers have signed 305 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 1: him twice. Max Munsey was an A they let him go. 306 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: Oh Tawny was an angel. He didn't win enough games. 307 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: So it's this idea that Kyle Tucker created the outrage. 308 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 1: Let's be totally honest about that. If the Dodgers weren't winning, 309 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 1: you'd be laughing at them. They're winning, and you're ticked off. 310 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: People do not like. Studies have also illustrated this. People 311 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 1: do not like when they feel other people are separating 312 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: from them. Guys don't like that you can make more 313 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,919 Speaker 1: than me by a little And it does feel like 314 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 1: the Dodgers have separated. It should be noted. Seventh game 315 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 1: beat the Blue Jays. Blue Jays for most of the 316 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 1: series felt like the better team. The blue Jays more 317 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 1: consistently hit than the Dodgers did. They got some breaks, 318 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 1: they got good managing, they got guys that step up. 319 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 1: This idea that I'm supposed to Kyle Tucker, that's what 320 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 1: really set a sport off. It's like I hear this 321 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: about college football constantly. Oh it's in chaos. I just 322 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 1: watched the best national championship game I can remember. It 323 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: was in chaos when BAM and Georgia and Clemson every 324 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 1: year were in the National championship for about fifteen years. 325 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: That was trouble at tendance down, ratings down. Baseball is 326 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 1: in an incredible spot. Well what about the pirates? What 327 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 1: about him? They couldn't compete when steinbrennerran the Yankees. They 328 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 1: haven't been good since the seventies and Willie Starzell. I mean, 329 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 1: weren't they great in the late seventies when I was 330 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: a kid growing up in the mid seventies. I can 331 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: name the whole infield. You want me to go, Manny 332 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: saying in you know you Al Oliver, Rennie Stennett, Taveris 333 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: at short they were great. They haven't been great consistently forever. 334 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: It's not a Dodgers issue. Well, what about the Cardinals? 335 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 1: Canni for Saint Louis has been dying as a city 336 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: for twenty years. They've lost fifteen fortune five hundred companies 337 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,919 Speaker 1: in forty years. They lost an NFL team. Saint Louis 338 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 1: is dried up as a city. It's Hartford with an orange. 339 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 3: Fucks. 340 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: Don't blame the Dodgers for that, of the Yankees for that, 341 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:49,479 Speaker 1: or Steve Cohen for that. 342 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 3: I feel strongly about this. You and I totally disagree 343 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:53,719 Speaker 3: on this stuff. 344 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,479 Speaker 1: If the Dodgers would have lost to the Blue Jays, 345 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: you'd be like, yeah. 346 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 3: Buying those players. You laughed at the maps, didn't you 347 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 3: laugh at the maps? 348 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 7: This year? 349 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 3: It's funny they spent all that money. They stunk. They 350 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 3: got the richest owner, not the Dodgers. J Mack with 351 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 3: the news. Turn on the news. 352 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 2: This is the Herdline News. 353 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 8: All right, let's get started with any interesting press conference 354 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 8: that went down earlier today in Buffalo, Colin. 355 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 9: I don't know what on earth owner Terry. 356 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 8: Pagoula was doing, but he was hosting a presser with 357 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 8: Brandon Bean, the in Battle GM who somehow got promoted 358 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 8: after McDermott got fired, and regarding Keon Coleman and the 359 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 8: drafting of the former can we call him a quasi 360 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 8: star in college? 361 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 3: He was very good. 362 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 8: Listen to the owner jump in and defend Bean and 363 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,439 Speaker 8: Barry McDermott over Keon Coleman. 364 00:20:51,840 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean I interrupt. I'll address the Keon situation. Uh. 365 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 10: The coaching staff pushed to draft Kean. I'm not saying 366 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 10: Brandon wouldn't have drafted him, but he wasn't his next choice. 367 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 10: That was Brandon being a team player and taking advice 368 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 10: of his coaching staff who felt strongly about the player. 369 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 10: And you know, he's taken for some reason heat over 370 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 10: it and not saying a word about it. But I'm 371 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 10: here to tell you the true story. 372 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,120 Speaker 3: Isn't that player still on the team. 373 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 9: He is on the team. 374 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 8: He was a healthy no stratch, he was a healthy 375 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:43,119 Speaker 8: scratch many times this year. 376 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 1: The way, why would you do that when he's still 377 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: on the team, Like, why in the world would it? 378 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: Would my boss come out and say, you know, I wasn't. 379 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 3: Really on the cowherd bandwagon. 380 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 8: So it gets worse, it gets worse calling Oh good, 381 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 8: So somebody found a video from the NFL combine. 382 00:21:58,200 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 9: Just propped on the internet. 383 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 8: Praising uh Keon Coleman's forty time and the ability to 384 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 8: get him in the draft. So, I mean, listen, you 385 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 8: know how this works, these power struggles in front offices. 386 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 8: As soon as things get embattled, everybody coz he's up 387 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 8: to the owner. I can get his ear, I can 388 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 8: I can kind of push the other guy out while 389 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 8: saving my own high. I don't know that that's what 390 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 8: went on here, but that's what it feels like. When 391 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 8: was the last time you've seen an owner jump in 392 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 8: and pick a side over the draft? 393 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: Pick Keon first of all, and I Keon Coleman's disappointment. 394 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 1: Let's be fair to Keon Coleman, the young man Florida 395 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: to Buffalo isn't the easiest transition for any young person 396 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: in America to make. Secondly, he had a touchdown last week. Third, 397 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: wide receivers are first round. Wide receivers struggle in terms 398 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: of bust more than any your position. So it is 399 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: a lot asking a kid to go from a college 400 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: offense to Josh Allen, Dion Dawkins, Brady's sophisticated offense. So 401 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: Coleman's got a lot of talent. He I think he 402 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: needs to grow up a little bit, mature a little bit. 403 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: I think that's part of it. But I don't like 404 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: this at all, calling out an employee when he is 405 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 1: still a young man, an ascending player. Potentially he had 406 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 1: a touchdown last week. Yeah, well, let's be fair. A 407 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: lot of quarterbacks, receivers, a lot of players in the 408 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 1: first round. 409 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 3: Don't hit in your low. 410 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 8: Yeah, Coleman actually fell right to thirty three at the 411 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 8: top of the second round. But here's how the order went. 412 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 8: It was a wide receiver run Pierce all who's been 413 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 8: a disappointment, can't stay healthy. Then Liget went to Carolina, 414 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 8: he's been up and down. Then Keon Coleman, who's right 415 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 8: in that group. The problem is right after Keon Coleman, 416 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,880 Speaker 8: LADDI McConkie, who's done some pretty damn good things. 417 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 1: Yes, but Ladd McConkie went to Harbaugh and Herbert, who 418 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: were desperate for a receiver, so he got a million 419 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: throws and looks. So I mean, I get I think 420 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: Lad's terrific, but that's a if you could say I 421 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 1: could go to Harbaugh and Herbert and be the number 422 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: one receiver immediately in the slot, that's a pretty good 423 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:54,640 Speaker 1: place to land. 424 00:23:54,840 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 8: Okay, I'm with you. I don't like burying a player 425 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 8: that's still on the roster. 426 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 9: I mean, essentially, what are. 427 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 8: You saying, we don't want this guy like and who's 428 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 8: not Now that everybody knows you don't like him and 429 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 8: didn't want him, nobody's offering anything incredible. 430 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 3: I mean again, when. 431 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 1: You're maybe I'm panning the players here, but I just 432 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: I don't like calling out young players publicly, privately ream 433 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: them all you want, bring him into the office. But 434 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,680 Speaker 1: I don't like Keon Coleman's a kid. I mean, he's 435 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 1: he's listening to this, and I mean he's what is 436 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: he thinking to that? And again, that's all I'm saying, 437 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,199 Speaker 1: is there there, This is weird, this is ugly. They 438 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: got the they got the PR announcement wrong. They waited 439 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: like two days to finally go to their social media 440 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,479 Speaker 1: and give McDermott. You know, McDermott's laughing at all this. 441 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: You know what Sean mcdermot's doing. I told you it 442 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,479 Speaker 1: was a zoo. I told you it was a mess. 443 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott looks like he escaped from Buffalo. That's what 444 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: it looks like right now. Fair enough, that's what it 445 00:24:58,520 --> 00:24:58,919 Speaker 1: looks like. 446 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean this is as a Jets fan, I 447 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 8: love watching the Bills implode and Colin, that's what's happening. 448 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 9: I know you don't love to listen to like fan bases. 449 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 3: The fan bise right now. 450 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,360 Speaker 8: In Buffalo is so angry that McDermott got fired and 451 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 8: Bean is still employed. They've broken down his draft history. 452 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 8: It's abysmal. 453 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 9: Listen, I had to take Friday with Rachel. You were 454 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 9: out that. 455 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 8: I think the Buffalo Bill's super Bowl window of Josh 456 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 8: Allen has shrunk, and I don't know that there's much 457 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 8: of a window left. Colin, Let's be real, but thirty 458 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 8: years old, he has taken a lot of hits. 459 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 9: The injury started. 460 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,400 Speaker 8: Haven't piled up yet, but he started to wear down. 461 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 8: We saw Mahomes crack this season. Cam Newton at age thirty, 462 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:42,199 Speaker 8: fell apart. I'm just saying, Josh Allen, he gets a 463 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 8: turf toe injury and this is a five win Buffalo team. Okay, 464 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 8: things are not looking good for Buffalo right now. Now 465 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 8: let's move on to a positive story, and that's Mike McDaniel. 466 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 8: We talked about him a lot, the sharp genius, the 467 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 8: wizard who was fired by the Miami Dolphins. He's going 468 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 8: to the Chargers to be the offensive coordinator, pairing with 469 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 8: oh my gosh, Jim Harbaugh and Justin Herbert. Everybody wanted 470 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 8: McDaniel except the Lions. Apparently Tampa Bay was hot for him. 471 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 8: The Eagles are very interested. Colin is a great landing spot. 472 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 8: You know, Harball's not going anywhere. You know Herbert's not 473 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,399 Speaker 8: going anywhere. Yes, and you get to go from Miami 474 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,439 Speaker 8: to Los Angeles too, great American cities. 475 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 9: This is awesome. 476 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a really really good fit. 477 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,159 Speaker 1: It's gonna have a lot of mo They'll look a 478 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: lot like Honestly, they'll look a lot like the Rams offense, 479 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: a lot of motion, a lot of sets. He's a 480 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 1: very creative guy. You know, it's interesting. I think both 481 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: of both of us. Don't know if he's a head coach, 482 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 1: but he's a great offensive guy. And again I'll say this, 483 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: he got the Dolphins to the playoffs. I believe two 484 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: times he made too a pro bowler. I didn't like 485 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 1: getting Tyreek Hill necessarily because my take was they already had. 486 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: I think Jayden Waddle they and two is not a 487 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: deep ball thrower. And you're not gonna win super Bowls 488 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 1: because you have a track team. You're gonna win super 489 00:26:57,960 --> 00:26:59,479 Speaker 1: Bowls because you have good old line d line goal 490 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: to the Miami Hurricanes. There's a Miami team that's good. 491 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: Why trenches? You know, that's what wins in cold weather trenches? 492 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 1: Rams defensive front right like Denver, a lot of sacks. 493 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 1: So I mean to me, I think this is about 494 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:17,400 Speaker 1: if I was Justin Herbert, I get the check book 495 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 1: out and I'd help like this because the trajectory and 496 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,160 Speaker 1: the opinion on Justin Herbert now is like, well, when 497 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 1: are we going to see watch Justin Herbert's reaction if 498 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 1: he gets side. 499 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 3: This is so good for him. 500 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 8: I know you and I are equally bullish on Herbert 501 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 8: and the Chargers. Just remember everybody, they made the playoffs 502 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 8: the last two years. They'll get both of their tackles back. 503 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 8: Their rookie O'maron Hampton was injured a lot. He's going 504 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 8: to be back with Vidal. They got the receiving corps. 505 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 8: Gadston emerged. I mean, listen, if you want you want 506 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 8: hot take off season, this is a top three team 507 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 8: in the AFC next year. For me, Colin, I think 508 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 8: the Chargers are really now. They're probably gonna lose mintor 509 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:56,959 Speaker 8: right the defensive coordinator. 510 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 9: He's interviewing everywhere. But I like a lot of things 511 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 9: about the Chargers. 512 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 8: Final story, it's going to Brian Dabole, another offensive coordinator 513 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 8: in high demand. According to Diana Russini, Philadelphia is conducting 514 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 8: their OC search with the understanding that Dable wants the 515 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 8: Buffalo Bill's job. 516 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 2: Now. 517 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 8: If he doesn't get that, and maybe he doesn't want 518 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 8: to go into that MESSI cauldron over there, he could 519 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 8: go to Tennessee as their offensive coordinator for Robert sala Culin. 520 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 8: If Mike McDaniel and Brian Dabele do not want to 521 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 8: work with Sirianni in Hertz. 522 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 9: What does that tell you about Philadelphia right now? 523 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,399 Speaker 1: Well, it's Philadelphia is a hard place to coach, and 524 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 1: it's certainly a hard place. It feels like to me, 525 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: a Sirianni has escaped the criticism. I mean, so Sirianni 526 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 1: sits there because he's got a trophy, and when you 527 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,479 Speaker 1: get the job, nobody talks about Sirianni. They're not going 528 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 1: to talk about Vic Fangio, who's great. The offensive coordinator 529 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 1: is getting ripped for hours, regardless of who it is. 530 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: He's taken all the arrows. So to me, it's like 531 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: time out. You can all see that Sirianni is totally 532 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: reliant on coordinators. How about he gets the criticism, not 533 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 1: the coordinator. So to me, I think it's a It's 534 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: probably the toughest coordinator job in the NFL. Is the 535 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles a very loud franchise where you and I 536 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: and I've said this before, is I still don't know 537 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: if is Sirianni if he was available to the market 538 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: today as a head coach, would people be lined up 539 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: like they were for Stefanski or I don't think they would. 540 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 3: I could be wrong, So where does it? 541 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 8: You know, like some people are offense, some people are defense. 542 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 8: That hardball is a special teams guy. Famously, I don't 543 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 8: know what, Sirianni. 544 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 3: He's an offensive guy. 545 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 9: Oh really, yes, that's why he has to change his offensive. 546 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 2: Coordinator every year. 547 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 8: And Jalen Hurts is declining supposedly rapidly. And the Eagles 548 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 8: offense was a massive issue all season. 549 00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, huh okay Jmack with the news. 550 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 2: Well that's the news, and thanks for stopping that. The 551 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 2: Herd line. 552 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 3: News we've established. 553 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 1: I don't think Mike McCarthy would be a disaster, but 554 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: he feels like more of the salm in Pittsburgh. Harbaugh 555 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: is gonna win ten or eleven games next year. Bank 556 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 1: it and stop telling me Kyle Tucker the Dodgers. That's 557 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: what really ticks the owners off. They're all billionaires. By 558 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: the way, Coming up next, Rex Ryan says Hire Belichick 559 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: in Buffalo. Nick Wright said that on the surface, it's interesting. 560 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 1: Three problems though, that's next. 561 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Herd weekdays 562 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 2: and Noone Eastern a em Pacific. 563 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 8: Seattle will be electric on Sunday with a trip to 564 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 8: the Super Bowl on the line, Matthew Stafford and the 565 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 8: Rams take on Sam Darnold and the Seahawks the NFC 566 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 8: Championship presented by Intuit Turbotex Sunday at sixtiestern three Pacific 567 00:30:58,600 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 8: on Box. 568 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: So there's a story out today that the Rex Ryan 569 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: says the Bill should hire Bill Belichick. He's my guy, 570 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 1: says Rex Ryan. Okay, three things that would worry me, 571 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: because Belichick knows the division and would love to beat 572 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 1: Robert Kraft and Mike Vrabel, because Rabel is the only 573 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: ex Patriot that doesn't kiss Belichick's bot. 574 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 3: He pokes him in the ribs constantly. 575 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: Because Rabel right now is a better coach than Belichick 576 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 1: is today. So Number one is you have to keep 577 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: Belichick away from pro personnel. He's so arrogant. He thinks 578 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 1: he's good at it. He's awful at it. His last 579 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: seven years were brutal in New England with personnel. On 580 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 1: Draft Day, I was told by two sources mid January, 581 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 1: he said, guys, I got it from here awful. Nick 582 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: Cassario left him, went to Houston. Now, Houston drafts as 583 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: well as anybody. 584 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 3: In the league. 585 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: Because Belichick had his thumb on him and Brandon Bean 586 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: is the GM of Buffalo. He's not known as a 587 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 1: great draft guy either. You know, he's a great cap guy. 588 00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 1: He's a smart guy, he's a confident guy. He doesn't 589 00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 1: have the best reputation in my in my sourcing as 590 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: a great you know, Jason Lyt and Tampa John Snyder 591 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: guy less need guy, Brett veach guy, Howie Roseman. That's 592 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 1: not his thing. He's not a great trade guy. He's 593 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 1: not a great draft guy. It maybe okay, he's not great. 594 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 1: Belichick's a disaster, indisputable. 595 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 3: Disaster. 596 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 1: Number two is old defensive coaches. This is a theory 597 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: of mine. They don't age as well. I think the 598 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: league's now getting younger with coaches, but I'm okay with 599 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 1: older offensive coaches Jim Harbaugh, Sean Payton, Andy Reid, because 600 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 1: offensive coaches tend to be creators. 601 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 3: It's like Hollywood. 602 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: Hollywood's got all sorts of seventy year old directors and 603 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 1: actors and writers and entertainers. Creative people age better than 604 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 1: brute force. And defensive guys are about toughness and volume 605 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: and there's a way to do it and authoritarian. Remember 606 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 1: the late Bobby Knight, how he ate not very well, 607 00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: very restrictive, very rigid, my way of the highway. That's Belichick. 608 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: Belichick has said, you know, I only want to coach 609 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: certain guys, my kind of guys. I mean literally, he 610 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: made Matt Patricia an offensive coordinator. I don't think defensive coaches. 611 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: Old defensive coaches age as well. Brute force has a ceiling. 612 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 1: Creativity is ageless. If you're smart and funny and creative, 613 00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 1: you could be a stand up comic in your seventies. 614 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 1: George Burns was funny, Dilly died. Creative's age better. That's 615 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: not Bill's thing. And the other thing is And we 616 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 1: got to be totally honest about this. Belichick. There's no 617 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 1: new guys in his circle. He hires retreads. Even in Carolina, 618 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: he kept Freddy Kitchens and that's another old guy, Bobby Patrino. 619 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: He doesn't want a new young set of eyes unless 620 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 1: the last name is Belichick, it's one of his kids. 621 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 1: I know that sounds brutal, but go look at his 622 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 1: new England hires. He hires guys that have failed elsewhere. 623 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: Where's his McVeigh on the staff or his Kyle Shanahan 624 00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 1: on the staff. 625 00:33:58,120 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 3: Where are they? 626 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 1: Vrabel will go get it. So I'm not anti defensive guy, 627 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: I'm not. I think Demiko Ryans is great, Mike mcdonnaland 628 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 1: Seattle's amazing. I prefer offensive guys, but I can live 629 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 1: with a def Brian Flores. I've been saying this for 630 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: two years. Somebody give that guy a job. I think 631 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: he's great, but you can't let Bill do anything with 632 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 1: a draft. You can't let him touch it. 633 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 3: Brutal. 634 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 1: Secondly, defensive, older defensive guys. The numbers are right here. 635 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 1: They don't age as well. Third, he hasn't put any 636 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 1: new guys. I mean, Andy Reid's always got a new 637 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: young guy in the staff. He's got plenty of young guys. 638 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: I don't mind old guys on the staff. I'm not agist, 639 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 1: but you've got to have new, fresh voices and eyes 640 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 1: on your product. Carolina feels like family and friends, nor 641 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 1: you know, New England at the end retreads, let's bring 642 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 1: Joe Judge back. How about not you know? I mean again, 643 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,360 Speaker 1: I think Matt Patrice is really good. For the record, 644 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: he could be on any staff I had, So I 645 00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:59,760 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean Silence of the Lambs was thirty 646 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 1: five years ago, but we saw what happened to the 647 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: first Buffalo Bill. 648 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:05,399 Speaker 3: It's not good. I'm not going there. 649 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: Here's Brandon Bean on the Bills potentially hiring an offensive 650 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:10,279 Speaker 1: head coach. 651 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 11: Now, we'll definitely give those guys every chance, but we 652 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 11: got to be careful not to just This is a 653 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 11: bigger job than just a play caller and a schemer. 654 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,720 Speaker 11: I think we've seen where guys have been excellent play callers, 655 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 11: but they got to the head coach seat and they 656 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 11: couldn't handle the adversity, the conflict, management, all the things 657 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,240 Speaker 11: that it's a CEO job. 658 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 1: That's for the record, that's exactly right. It is a 659 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: luxury when you get Kyle Shanahan, who's a CEO and 660 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:42,439 Speaker 1: a great scheme guy. 661 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 3: Andy Reid's that. But Andy Reid also says I don't 662 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 3: want to. 663 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: Touch the draft. Andy Reid has no interest in the draft. 664 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 1: So you know who would I hire? Brian dabol feels 665 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 1: like he could handle the conflict. He's been in New 666 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 1: York as a head coach. This is a small market, 667 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,760 Speaker 1: probably easier, let's be honest. Daniel Jones with the Giants 668 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 1: is harder than Josh Allen. 669 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 3: With the Bills. That's an easier lift. 670 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 1: I'm sorry he's I mean, what are the three or 671 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 1: four things you need in the NFL? You need a 672 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: star quarterback, check, a great left tackle, check, an edge rusher, 673 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 1: Bosa check. They got a lot of checks. They really 674 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,320 Speaker 1: check a lot of boxes. They got a new stadium, 675 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,239 Speaker 1: so revenue's gonna go up. It's gonna be much more 676 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:27,800 Speaker 1: attractive to free agents, got loyal fan base. I understood 677 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 1: the McDermott dismissal. 678 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:29,839 Speaker 3: I did. 679 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,520 Speaker 1: They just kept it was always something. But I'll tell 680 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: you since he left, it doesn't look great. I disagree 681 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 1: with j Mac. I think if you have Josh Allen, 682 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 1: a great left tackle, weapons, an edge rusher, you're gonna 683 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:45,160 Speaker 1: be fine. This is a league in which if you 684 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 1: have a star quarterback, as long as you keep redoing 685 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:50,319 Speaker 1: his deal so you have some space to go get 686 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 1: a weapon, you're gonna be fine. The idea that Josh 687 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:57,239 Speaker 1: Allen for seven years has done. Josh Allen had a 688 00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: bad game against Denver. Josh Allen, it should be no 689 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,399 Speaker 1: to MVP last year in the running this year. 690 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:03,439 Speaker 3: If you have an. 691 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,919 Speaker 1: MVP level quarterback, it's hard not to be kind of good. 692 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 9: Well, they're gonna be good. Yeah, they're gonna win seven, eight, nine, 693 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:09,280 Speaker 9: ten games. 694 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 8: But the days of thirteen wins AFC Championship, Colin, they 695 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 8: got eight free agents who are starters. Okay, now you 696 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 8: got a new head coach. Don't know what that transition 697 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 8: is gonna be, Like, is there gonna be a new 698 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 8: offensive coordinator? 699 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:21,440 Speaker 1: Like? 700 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 8: What are they keeping Brady? A lot of questions. The 701 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 8: thing I keep coming back to is Josh Allen. Colin 702 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 8: turns thirty this offseason, has not really been injured. As 703 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,320 Speaker 8: long as he's breathing, they're fine. They'll be competitive. 704 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 3: But remember, but win a Super Bowl. 705 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 1: Remember remember Matt Stafford got to you know what beat 706 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: out of him for a dozen years in Detroit. He 707 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 1: is gonna be thirty eight or thirty nine super Bowl week. 708 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,880 Speaker 1: He is still elite, and he doesn't have the ability 709 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: to escape. He's had concussions, He's had a litany of injuries. 710 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 1: He's thirty eight in Hummin. He's not the app He's 711 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 1: got a great arm, he's not the athlete. To Josh Allen, Also, 712 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,839 Speaker 1: the league, you didn't have all this nutritional upgrades, the 713 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 1: quality of these quarterbacks and plu you know what they 714 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 1: the pliability stuff they go through. Josh Allen can play 715 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:12,840 Speaker 1: as long as he wants to play because he's like 716 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 1: a great shooter in the NBA. He's going to have 717 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: an arm when he's fifty four. I don't worry about 718 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 1: that stuff. But what I worry about in my take 719 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 1: on this story with Belichick is every coach has a hole, 720 00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:28,320 Speaker 1: even the great ones have a hole. Belichick doesn't think 721 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 1: his hole as a hole. 722 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:30,359 Speaker 3: Now. 723 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 1: Belichick, with players already in the league, is very savvy 724 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 1: and very sharp. Bill watches Sunday Football. Do you think 725 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: Jimmy Johnson coached in college football? Jimmy Johnson spends his 726 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 1: Saturdays for eight hours watching college football. Jimmy Johnson was 727 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 1: great with college personnel. When he rebuilt the Cow he 728 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 1: made that herschel Walker trade. 729 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:51,799 Speaker 3: Nobody make trades like that. 730 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:55,800 Speaker 1: Jimmy is one of the rare guys loved college football, 731 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 1: love the personnel. There's not now Jim Harbaugh because he's 732 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:01,840 Speaker 1: con call he loves college football too. Look at the 733 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,359 Speaker 1: Chargers last two drafts. They have been very, very good 734 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 1: because hardball loves college football, right, So. 735 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 9: I would be pushing Bill Belichick for the. 736 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 1: Andy Reid doesn't. Andy Reid doesn't watch college football on Saturday. 737 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 1: That's why he doesn't want anything to do with it. 738 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 1: And he'll tell you let Breadfeach do it. Some guys 739 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:22,439 Speaker 1: love college football. Jimmy Johnson did. Jimmy's arguably the best 740 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:23,759 Speaker 1: personal guy we've ever had as. 741 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 3: A head coach. And by the way, most aren't. 742 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll came out of USC first three years, seah 743 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 1: Owks were stealing. 744 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 3: Guys in the sixth round. 745 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 1: Okay, so my take is that that is Belichick is 746 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 1: not a Saturday guy. I mean, last year was a disaster. 747 00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,800 Speaker 1: He's smart enough to make the program better. Carolina should 748 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: be better this year. But this was for the record. 749 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 1: This is this story what Rex Ryan is saying. This 750 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 1: is what I was saying, and I think you were 751 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 1: saying it last year. Remember his contract had a very 752 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 1: quick out he did and I kept saying the two jobs. 753 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 1: He would look at Eagles with Howie Roseman. Now I 754 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:05,320 Speaker 1: do I think Bill in Philly with Howie Roseman is 755 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 1: a GM that tracks because he's not going to be 756 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 1: near the personnel. But in Buffalo, where Brandon Bean is not, 757 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 1: he I and again, smart guy he's known as a 758 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 1: very sharp guy, great cap guy. He doesn't in recent 759 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,760 Speaker 1: years have a great record, and I understand the draft 760 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,719 Speaker 1: is hard. It's really even the great gms with all 761 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: the time. So I think Philly with Belichick, I would 762 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 1: support that move today. 763 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,400 Speaker 9: Yeah, there's nothing here with Buffalo Belichick. 764 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 8: There's no chance a guy like Brandon Bean who's clearly insecure, 765 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 8: which is why he ran off McDermot. Zero chance he's 766 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 8: entertaining Belichick and you know ownership they don't want him 767 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 8: in there, so it's a non starter. I think the 768 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 8: real interesting one is Dable because Dabell is who made 769 00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 8: Josh Allen. That's how you win the fan base back. 770 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 8: They loved Brian Dable, offensive genius. That was the best 771 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 8: years of Josh Allen. I think that's the move you bring. 772 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 8: You got to bring him back then, but then you 773 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:01,359 Speaker 8: lose Joe Brady. The eir thing is there's no easy 774 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 8: fix your calm. This team is in trouble, man. I'm 775 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 8: just telling you they're not as much trouble. 776 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 1: Look around the AFC. The young quarterback checks disaster. Dolphins, 777 00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 1: you know, just hired a defensive guy. Vrabel and New 778 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 1: England are going to be great and Buffalo is going 779 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 1: to be really, really good too. 780 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 3: Those two are going to run this division for years. 781 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 1: That's the reality is fourteen teams make the playoffs, you know, 782 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:29,080 Speaker 1: seven each conference. If Josh Allen is upright, they're going 783 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 1: to be in that playoff chase Week sixteen, seventeen eighteen 784 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 1: for the next decade. 785 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:37,480 Speaker 3: Coming up next, it's the hurd
