00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: and Out Podcast? How are we doing well? The greement

11
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: backers are doing okay because even at six to eight

12
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: they got a little life. The Los Angeles Rams and

13
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield and John McVeigh not much life and a

14
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,319
Speaker 1: team in an injury news that kind of came out

15
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:04,320
Speaker 1: of nowhere makes the NFC. This is gonna be the weirdest,

16
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: wildest playoffs potentially ever because if Jalen hurts is legitimately hurt,

17
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 1: and that's a story that we're gonna be monitoring closely.

18
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: Hooveraking knows. I mean, could Tom Brady and the Bucks

19
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: make a run. No chance, They're terrible, but we'll dive

20
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: into all that. Some other takes on NFL owners meetings

21
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: and officiating. God, they're terrible. Brady and Bill. We'll check

22
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:32,639
Speaker 1: in on those two. Zach Wilson versus Trevor Lawrence Thursday

23
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: night game. If I told you that the Jets Jags

24
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: game at the beginning of the season would be meaningful

25
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: and you'd want to watch, I don't know if any

26
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: of us would have believed anybody, but I do. I

27
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: can't wait, so we'll dive into all that. Middlecoff mailbag.

28
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: Also at John Middlecoff is the Instagram fire In those

29
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,480

31
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: appreciate everyone that has During golf season, we got little

32
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 1: podcast got called Golo. Also do it there that's a

33
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: couple months away. And what else? I think the holiday schedule,

34
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: this podcast. I'll have a podcast I think on Thursday,

35
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: because I'm traveling back to my mom's house on Thursday,

36
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: So no podcast after the game. I haven't quite figured

37
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 1: out my schedule after Christmas. Probably do two or three

38
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: midweek podcast next week and then just get back on

39
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: normal routine. Come the new year's I think, but I

40
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 1: will update you here in a couple of days on that. Otherwise,

41
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: this is podcast, so you'll see when they load. It's

42
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 1: a great part about this business, Like when I do

43
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 1: a podcast, you know immediately let's dive inn. The crazy

44
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: part about the NFL is if you can just stay

45
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: around five hundred a game above a game below, you

46
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 1: are right in the playoff mix. Now, especially with this

47
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: added seven seed, you're just alive. And one thing's clear

48
00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: last year and it's evidently clear again this year if

49
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: you can get to that nine win mark. Obviously, some

50
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: years are going to be different. Last year the Chargers

51
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: went nine and eight, missed the playoffs in the AFC,

52
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 1: and more than likely in the AFC, a nine win

53
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 1: team might not make it. But it's very clear that

54
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 1: a nine win team in the NFC is going to

55
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: have a very good chance. And listen, this Packer team

56
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: clearly is not as good as the last couple of years,

57
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 1: but they're very much alive. And I don't think any

58
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: team in the NFL, you know, and it would basically

59
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: be Minnesota or San Francisco, would want to see a

60
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: Packer team that won four straight games to get in,

61
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: especially this week. To me, if they beat the Dolphins,

62
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: I think they got a very good chance to be

63
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: playing that wild card weekend because now they're six and eight.

64
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: They beat the Dolphins, which is going to be difficult

65
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: the Dolphins. This is kind of must win territory for

66
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: them too, depending on what happens in the Jets game,

67
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: what happens this week with the Patriot game, right, you know,

68
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: the Raiders and Steelers are not dead either, though, they

69
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: got some room to fight. But when it comes to

70
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 1: the NFC, if you just assume the Giants get to that,

71
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 1: let's say nine seven and one, Mark potentially ten six

72
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: and one, the seven seat is wide open. And when

73
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: you look at the teams competing for that that are

74
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: above green Bay, and green Bay finishes, they go at Miami,

75
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: which is you know, gonna be a nice weather game

76
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 1: for Aaron Rodgers sling that thing around. We'll see what

77
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 1: the injury is the AJ Dillon. Then they get Minnesota

78
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 1: and Detroit at home. I also have early circled green

79
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: Bay Detroit Week eighteen, winner get in. I'll promise you

80
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 1: the potential games for winner get in. It's like Tennessee Jacksonville,

81
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: Jets at Miami and Green Bay Detroit. Let's just in

82
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 1: a hypothetical world, say all three of them are winner

83
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: get in to the playoffs. Aaron Rodgers is getting Sunday

84
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: Night football with Mike Tarrico and Chris Collinsworth. That's a fact,

85
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: and I think that would be the best game, especially

86
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: if that game the winner is to play Minnesota another

87
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: divisional game. I got that already marked as the Monday

88
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:20,359
Speaker 1: night football game. But Washington, who is currently above the

89
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers right now, they play the forty nine

90
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 1: ers this week. They're seven point Doug, I like the Niners.

91
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: Seattle seven and seven also above green Bay, they play

92
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: the Kanca Chiefs. Bye bye Seattle. And when you look

93
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: at the Packers, if they're able to win this Miami game,

94
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: and let me I said it yesterday on the podcast,

95
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 1: Miami's game, even in a loss, was very very impressive

96
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: against Buffalo, easily could have won that game, went toe

97
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 1: to toe with them that that was their easily their

98
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 1: best game in a while. And obviously they're leaking oil.

99
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: They look like a playoff lock. I still think they

100
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: are a playoff team, but all of a sudden, you

101
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: lose this game against the Packers, depending on what happened

102
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 1: some of the other team we'll see. And then Minnesota,

103
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,359
Speaker 1: who I get you gotta give credit to they just

104
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,559
Speaker 1: find a ways to win green Bay at home early

105
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: season loss that thing would be fascinating. And then Detroit.

106
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I got that thing circled. And this

107
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: is a great life lesson to any NFL team. Like obviously,

108
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 1: once you get to like four and eight, there's a

109
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: lot to overcome. But if you can just keep it

110
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 1: as the year goes on to seven and seven, six

111
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: and seven, seven and six, and just keep your head

112
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,039
Speaker 1: above water. Now with the seven seed, you're gonna be

113
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 1: in the mix. And no team like I'll tell you

114
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 1: this as a forty nine er guy, you know the

115
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 1: team I want to see in the first round Washington

116
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: or New York. Taylor Heineke, Daniel Jones, hell I even

117
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,479
Speaker 1: Jared Goff. The forty nine Ers have played him. He

118
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:50,799
Speaker 1: can't move around Seattle all day long. You know the team.

119
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: If the forty Nineers already get the two seed, the

120
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: last team they would want to face is the Green

121
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 1: Bay Packers. And I'm not saying they can't beat the

122
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers. Obviously Latin, they'd be the favored in

123
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 1: that game. They beat him on the road last year

124
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 1: when they were the number one scene and they were

125
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 1: seven point doc. But you got Aaron Rodgers, and anytime

126
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 1: you got to play Aaron Rodgers, it's it's fucking hard.

127
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: And you saw it to night like he was ready

128
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: to score another touchdown at the end of the game.

129
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 1: He's doing Tommy Lasorda, touching his elbow, touching his leg

130
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: for indicator, and Christian Watson doesn't know what's going on.

131
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: So there's still a learning process there. And without DeVante

132
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: Adams they're clearly not as potent on offense. But I

133
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: said this last year when the forty nine Ers went

134
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: on the road to beat him, I don't think they

135
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 1: would have beat him if that game would have been

136
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: at Levi's. Now, I still think the forty Niners would

137
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 1: beat the Backers, right if the Packers had to come

138
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 1: on the road two Levi's. But Aaron Rodgers at the

139
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: type of quarterback you want to see, because the reality

140
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: is the quarterbacks in the NFC, and we'll get to

141
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts here in a second ain't great. You know,

142
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: this ain't Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, Justin Herbert, and Josh Allen.

143
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 1: That group is on the other side of the conference

144
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: talk about a gauntlet and talk about a conference, especially

145
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: now with Alan's injury, which we have to admit is

146
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: just wide open. You get in the dance, you got

147
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: a chance. And I've said over and over the McVeigh

148
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: TV talk I feel is a little exhausting. I also

149
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: feel it's like a little bit you know, unfair to

150
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: the profession is probably the wrong way to put it,

151
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: but it's like, bro, you make fifteen million dollars, you

152
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: don't have kids, you know. I know he's kind of

153
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: shot these rumors down, but clearly last year he flirted.

154
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: Tonight at halftime, it's freezing cold. He's playing a game

155
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: with a bunch of practice squad players. The overwoodwhelming majority

156
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: of NFL football fans couldn't name most of the guys

157
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: he's rolling out Besides like Baker Mayfield and Jalen Ramsey,

158
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: his best players are in street clothes on the sideline

159
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: and he gives this halftime interview in what looked like

160
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: zero degrees. You can see his breath. He looks cold,

161
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 1: and I got a text from my cousin who's like,

162
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: he's got TV written all over him. Why does he

163
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: want to keep going through this? And listen, I don't

164
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 1: like this topic. It does exhaust me, but it's not

165
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: going away. And you have to wonder, like he couldn't

166
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: retire last year they just won the Super Bowl, Like,

167
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: I don't care how much he flirted with him, how

168
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: much money Bezos and his people offered him. If Stafford

169
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 1: and Aaron Donald and all those guys were gonna come back,

170
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 1: he had to run it back. He could not walk

171
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: off like he's John Elway or Peyton Manning. And he did.

172
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 1: But if he starts going, well, what if Matt Stafford

173
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 1: retires or is not the same. What if Aaron Donald's

174
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: actually like you know what, I'm over this? What if

175
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 1: he goes h Jalen Ramsey ain't quite as good anymore?

176
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 1: And all we got is Cooper Cup Like as you

177
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 1: saw tonight, Baker Mayfield was a fun story. It was

178
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 1: against the Raiders, and the Raiders turns out if it's

179
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 1: not for Jacobe Meyers throwing at seventy five yards for

180
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: some god knows forsaken reason to Mac Jones and it

181
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: hits Chandler Jones in the hands. The Raiders lose a

182
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: lot of games, and the Raiders lost to Jeff Saturday,

183
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 1: and they lost to Baker Mayfield. But Baker Mayfield ain't

184
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: going on the road and Lambau he struggled to throw

185
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 1: for a hundred yards, look like a fish out of water.

186
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 1: Like I said, playing with practice squad guys. Whatever. But

187
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: like if Matt Stafford were to retire, it's not like

188
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh would be like, yeah, I'll just roll it

189
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: back with Baker Mayfield and what wins six games? That's

190
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:27,199
Speaker 1: that's probably not enjoyable when you know Amazon would gladly.

191
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: I like herb Street. I really do love him on

192
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 1: college college game Day, the night game with Musburger and

193
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 1: Fowler over the years. He's just a stalwart when I

194
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 1: think about college football. He's a little bit of a

195
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 1: fish out of water. In the NFL, him and Al

196
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 1: have pretty terrible chemistry. It's, let's face it, a rough watch.

197
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: I think Alan Sean would be very entertaining. And you

198
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: do have to wonder because I promise you, like I said,

199
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: exhausting topic, it ain't gonna go away. And if these

200
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: guys are either tapping out, retiring, or he thinks are

201
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 1: over the hill and now injury prone. You have to

202
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 1: wonder if he'll contemplate going, you know, see you, because

203
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: Amazon will gladly tell her be hey, just you just

204
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: focus on college, Sean, come all our way, get with al.

205
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: He'll groom you and you'll be a star and we'll

206
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: pay you. What are you making coaching fifteen million dollars

207
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 1: for the Rams? How many hours do you work? One

208
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 1: hundred a week? What time do you get up four thirty?

209
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 1: How about you wake up at eight and we pay

210
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 1: you twenty million dollars a year and we decided you

211
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: to do a six year deal and we pay you

212
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: a huge cash and you become an absolute rock start

213

00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 1: We had I wouldn't say a fishy story. I would

237
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 1: imagine Eagles fans saw yesterday. I was in and out

238
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: of the Eagles Bears game, but he played the whole game,

239
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: and then he threw a late I guess it wasn't

240
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 1: a touchdown, but a beauty full bomb to a J. Brown.

241
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 1: He finished the game, and he was throwing late in

242
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 1: the game that you didn't think much of Jalen Hurts

243
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: laying on the ground for a second and his left

244
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,839
Speaker 1: tackle having to lift him up. Now, before we dive

245
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 1: into the how he got hurt and running quarterbacks get

246
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: it's football guys get injured playing football. Pocket quarterbacks get hurt.

247
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 1: Punters and kickers get hurt. Running quarterbacks get hurt. I

248
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: never have a problem because I think it is very

249
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: easy to nitpick. I've seen it with Deebo Samuel, I've

250
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: seen it with the forty nine ers quarterbacks going down

251
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: that why are you running him? Jalen Hurts, who has

252
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 1: proven out to be an excellent passer, especially you know,

253
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: Jason Kelsey has called him the best deep ball thrower

254
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 1: in the league, and with Russell Wilson becoming a terrible

255
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 1: football player, you can make that argument. He throws a

256
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: beautiful deep ball. He has improved greatly as a rhythm

257
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 1: passer in the short and intermediate game. No player probably

258
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 1: has improved more in the last twelve months than Jalen Hurts.

259
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 1: But his best at beat as a football player, and

260
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,559
Speaker 1: it is a borderline elite attribute is his running skills

261
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: as a quarterback, right because unlike a running back, he's

262
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 1: not necessarily accounted for always because he can drop back

263
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:16,599
Speaker 1: and scramble. It's a It's just he's as instinctive of

264
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: a runner as honestly we've ever seen he is. He's elite.

265
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: He's not the fastest runner, but in terms of instincts

266
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: as a runner, it doesn't get any better. So I

267
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:30,479
Speaker 1: never have a problem with calling runs for great running quarterbacks.

268
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: Now I think the pushback is late in the season.

269
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: He is clearly the one of the key cogs to

270
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: your eventual pursuit of a Super Bowl. You're playing the

271
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: Bears now at the time, you don't know if the

272
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 1: cow the cow It's not like you're playing in the

273
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: afternoon and the Cowboys played in the morning and you

274
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: knew they lost, so you're playing to win. It's a

275
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: tight game, and running him in third quarter like, it's

276
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: just part of what you do that would happen against

277
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, that would happen against the forty nine ers.

278
00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: You would probably do that against the Texans. We can

279
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: pick that, but I do believe it's a little unfair

280
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: because that's how he plays, and that's really how he excels,

281
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 1: by being a threat in the run game, throwing bombs

282
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: in the passing game, and utilizing you know, his playmakers

283
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: in the short and intermediate game, and letting them make

284
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 1: plays after, you know, with the ball in their hands.

285
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: But if he's really hurt, and let's face it, this

286
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: is not a good sign. I have no inside information.

287
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: Just read what you've read on the internet. And John Clark,

288
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: who covers the team, who just no ship going. There's

289
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: no chance he'll miss a playoff game. He'll be at

290
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: minimum ready for the playoffs. I think it's pretty clear

291
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: Gardner min who's gonna play this week against the Cowboys. Now,

292
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 1: ultimately this Cowboy game after they you know, blew that

293
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 1: game to the Jacks, because that's what it was. You're

294
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: up twenty seven to ten. You know you have a

295
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: chance to put him away at the end of a regulation. Hell,

296
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: you get him to punt and you have the ball

297
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: in overtime. You can't lose that game. That's a terrible

298
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: loss by the Cowboys, but also has huge implications now

299
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: that their quarterback, I mean hypothetically could miss the rest

300
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: of the regular season. Who knows, Maybe it's his precautionary

301
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: he just misses one game, but it is his throwing shoulder.

302
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 1: And if I had to take an educated guess, the

303
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: adrenaline of the game, there was a great video of

304
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 1: like aj Brown and another wide receiver, you know, completely

305
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 1: screwing around having a good time on the sideline on

306
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: the bench, and Jalen is as serious as like a marine.

307
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: I mean, that guy is so locked in, so he

308
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 1: wasn't coming out of the game, but I do wonder

309
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: if he was in serious pain today and it's just

310
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: throwing shoulder. It's just something that makes us talk about

311
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 1: like the NFC, and people ask me like, do the

312
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: forty nine ers really have a chance for brock Purty. Well,

313
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: in theory they should not, but they're not playing Joe Burrow,

314
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: you know, Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, That's not who they

315
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 1: have to go through. It's Kirk Cousins, who has one

316
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: career playoff victory. Dak Prescott. I saw him play in

317
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: the playoffs last year. It was ugly. Daniel Jones heinekey Like,

318
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,280
Speaker 1: It's why I say Aaron Rodgers would be so garry

319
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 1: if he got in because one thing that's always hurt

320
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 1: the Packers. They're always playing at home. It's freezing cold.

321
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 1: It's hard to pass. Put him in sunny conditions. They're

322
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,639
Speaker 1: actually more built historically for a dome because they have

323
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: this all time great quarterback Tom Brady. Well, his team

324
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: sucks and so does he kind of right now, So

325
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 1: if Jalen Hurts, who clearly was on the best team

326
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 1: and was one of the best players in the league

327
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 1: this year, is no longer close to one hundred percent

328
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 1: as a passer right shoulder injury, like, it's something if

329
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 1: you're an Eagle fan, I'm sorry, you got to be

330
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: a little concerned. That's pretty rattling news. Now. Ultimately, if

331
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 1: he's okay in three or four weeks, no big deal.

332
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,879
Speaker 1: But we know sometimes that's not how injuries work. And

333
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,679
Speaker 1: I don't think this information just kind of slowly leaked

334
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 1: late in the day. You know, this is something that's

335
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 1: just hard to keep raps on. And when it came out,

336
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 1: I went Man's that made the NFC a little more

337
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 1: wide open, because the AFC is technically wide open with

338
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:02,640
Speaker 1: three teams the Bigs, the Chiefs, the Bengals. I would

339
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 1: not put my money on any other team. The only

340
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: other team I could see like winning a playoff game

341
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,680
Speaker 1: is the Chargers because of the quarterback. And I don't

342
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 1: feel that great because of the coach in the defense.

343
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: But their quarterback is awesome and he can beat anyone

344
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 1: when he's on. But one of the other three teams

345
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 1: is winning the AFC. Who's winning the NFC? If you're

346
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 1: telling me Jalen Hurts is banged up and is compromised

347
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:28,120
Speaker 1: as a thrower, shit wide open. You say the Niners

348
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,719
Speaker 1: they have mister Irrelevant playing quarterback. You say the Vikings

349
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 1: are gonna be thirteen wins. They're point differentials like two.

350
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 1: You know, the Cowboys leaking oil big time. No one's

351
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:42,480
Speaker 1: gonna pick Tampa, you know, no chance the Giants, right,

352
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,360
Speaker 1: So it's like, who knows. Maybe it's just some weird happens,

353
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: And that's what feels that's the NFC feels weird right now,

354
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 1: feels very very weird, and that also sometimes makes her

355
00:18:54,160 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: fun TV. I can't wait to watch the playoffs. Okay,

356
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 1: I wanted to dive into a couple of big picture

357
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: things with the NFL, and I wanted to start with

358
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,439
Speaker 1: the officiating over the last couple of days, it's been

359
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 1: a complete embarrassment. And I've always had a take that

360
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: two professions kind of parallel each other where in competence

361
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: not only is tolerated, it thrives, and it feels like

362
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 1: you get rewarded the more incompetent you are. And it's

363
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 1: government officials and referees. And I've never argued that, like

364
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 1: both jobs are not easy, or I mean are easy,

365
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,479
Speaker 1: like being a government official. You're not going to please everyone.

366
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 1: But there's a long history of certain things that work

367
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 1: and certain things that don't. Just like NFL referees, I

368
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 1: understand subjective calls are difficult. The NFL has never been

369
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 1: faster wide receivers, linebackers, defensive linemen. These people are moving

370
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 1: at warp speed, so pass interferences holdings like these are

371
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 1: tough calls. It has subjective calls, but there are certain

372
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: things that are pretty black and white. And we saw

373
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: on Saturday when the fumble happened in the Vikings game,

374
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 1: his needed not hit, he returned it for a touchdown.

375
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,880
Speaker 1: Not only did they not call it a touchdown, but

376
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: they you know, they said this knee was down and

377
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 1: the ball was down, and then they flagged him for

378
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 1: being mad at the call because it was wrong. I've

379
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 1: always had this thing in the NBA. You should never

380
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,120
Speaker 1: give a guy a tea for saying the effort. This

381
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: is not little league. This is the big leagues with

382
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 1: millions of dollars careers and people's livelihoods on the line.

383
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,159
Speaker 1: And when a guy gets mad at a call, especially

384
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: when you screwed up and you flag him, you should

385
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 1: be removed of your duties. And then on Saturday, on

386
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 1: Sunday night, a lot was going on when I reacted

387
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 1: to the game, and I didn't quite realize everything that

388
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 1: happened with the Terry McLaurin play. At the end of

389
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 1: the game, he looks at the line judge who tells

390
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,199
Speaker 1: you whether you're on the line of scrimmage or not.

391
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 1: You obviously needed a certain people on the line of scrimmage,

392
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 1: you know, and clearly he has to be on the

393
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: line or it's an legal formation. The referee gives him

394
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: the thumbs up and ultimately says that he's not on

395
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. That can't happen. This is not acceptable.

396
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 1: There was a play in the Raider game where they

397
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,919
Speaker 1: called a touchdown where it was pretty clear, but we

398
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: didn't have a good enough camera angle that his foot

399
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: was on the white Like, how are we in a

400
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 1: position with a business that generates this much money where

401
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 1: every single team just from television rights at the end

402
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 1: of the year gets three hundred plus million dollars. Teams

403
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 1: are making five six seven hundred thousand dollars in revenue

404
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: every single year, that we don't have proper camera angles

405
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 1: on the end zone that a referee can give a

406
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 1: guy thumbs up and say, actually, no, I didn't where

407
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 1: a guy's knee does not touch, yet he's called down

408
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 1: and he gets pissed off rightfully so, and then has

409
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 1: penalized fifteen yards. How is this incompetence tolerate players, they

410
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: lose their job, when teams lose, Coaches get fired front offices.

411
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,199
Speaker 1: We'll dive into all the money being spent. There's a

412
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,840
Speaker 1: lot of people who there, the way they feed their

413
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 1: family and where they live is determined by wins and losses.

414
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 1: And for it ultimately to come down to some sixty

415
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: year old in a zebra shirt that kind of just

416
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:18,439
Speaker 1: gives a subjective outcome to something that is very objective.

417
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 1: It's black and white. You either said he was on

418
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: the line or you didn't. His knee either touched or

419
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 1: it didn't. His foot was either on the white or

420
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:30,439
Speaker 1: it wasn't. I do not understand, over and over and

421
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,199
Speaker 1: over and over and over how this keeps happening. The

422
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 1: other thing is, unlike these other sports, people are just

423
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 1: not gambling on basketball. It's just the overwhelming people that gamble,

424
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: and I would fall under that category. Do not gamble

425
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 1: on the NBA maybe a little bit in the playoffs

426
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 1: and in basketball. If anything I'm gonna gamble, it will

427
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,880
Speaker 1: be in the NC Double A tournament. We're not gambling

428
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 1: on baseball. The only people gambling on professional baseball. It's

429
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,639
Speaker 1: such a small percentage of people that actually gamble. We

430
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 1: gamble on football. That is why all these companies are

431
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,479
Speaker 1: spending all these all this money. We benefit obviously here

432
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:08,440
Speaker 1: from the volume, but definitely the NFL benefits from all

433
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 1: these you know, gambling companies, and rightfully so. You have

434
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 1: to be a credible league. And when you do shit

435
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 1: like that over and over and over, it diminishes your

436
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,120
Speaker 1: credibility on things that are very in your control. How

437
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 1: do you not have fucking cameras in the end zone?

438
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 1: How when you see a knee either touches or doesn't touch,

439
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,639
Speaker 1: can you say the opposite thing. It's why I always

440
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: say it drives me nuts hearing these referees in the

441
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 1: booth giving their opinions. Like I saw you back when

442
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 1: you were younger on the field, you sucked. I don't

443
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: want to hear you talk. You ruin this viewing experience.

444
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 1: And then what happens when they give their opinion on

445
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: things that are pretty black and white, they're often wrong.

446
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: So it's just this hamster wheel of incompetence that never ends.

447
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,400
Speaker 1: And like I said, I understand certain subjective calls. We're

448
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 1: all going to argue a pass interference, a roughing the pastor,

449
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 1: and I get it. And I heard Coward say this

450
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,119
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago on his show, and I agree.

451
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:11,439
Speaker 1: If we have to live with the overregulation of, you know,

452
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 1: keeping quarterbacks safe, so be it. That's how that's the

453
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: reason the league is thriving, because you and I we

454
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 1: love talking about Trent Williams at left tackle, or Sauce

455
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: Gardner and Micah Parsons, Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Patrick Mahomes

456
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,400
Speaker 1: carry the league. They're with my mom, my girlfriend, casual

457
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: people talk and think about when you say, say the

458
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 1: kansa chief, you don't go, oh God, how about Chris

459
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 1: Jones inside paths rush? Now you're talking about Patrick Mahomes.

460
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:41,120
Speaker 1: So I'm okay with overregulating it. Listen, I've been known

461
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 1: to speed a time or two. I'm cool with overregulating

462
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: the freeway and keeping people just somewhat under control. Right

463
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 1: that that is not an area where everyone should just

464
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: be Lucy Goosey taking care of our quarterbacks. I get it.

465
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 1: But on some of these calls, like his phoe was

466
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: either on the wider it wasn't. How are we having

467
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 1: this conversation where we can't figure it out? His knee

468
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 1: with it was either down or it wasn't, and it

469
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 1: clearly wasn't. Then to penalize the guy for getting mad.

470
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 1: It just shouldn't take place. There's too much money on

471
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,879
Speaker 1: the line. It is simply unacceptable. And I saw this

472
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 1: story come out yesterday. Adam Schefter put it out on

473
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 1: Sunday morning that the NFL last week they were owners meetings.

474
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 1: You that picture of Ersay with a cigarette, And I

475
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,120
Speaker 1: think there was also something where Troy Vincent and Jerry

476
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: Jones and Arthur Blank were getting in arguments over the combine.

477
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:33,199
Speaker 1: It's like, hey, Troy, listen, we can agree or disagree

478
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,880
Speaker 1: every single individual thing of the combine. But the reason

479
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 1: that this sport prints money for so many people, yourself included,

480
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 1: is because when the season ends, the NFL combine, free agency,

481
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 1: the NFL Draft. Whenever I hear someone like get rid

482
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:53,439
Speaker 1: of the NFL draft, that's Unamerican bullshit like that is

483
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 1: a huge reason that the NFL thrives and everyone involved

484
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 1: in it, players included, are printing. Ah, there is no

485
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 1: sport in the history of the world, and there's probably

486
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 1: no business in the history of the world that has

487
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 1: made more millionaires than the National Football League. And it's

488
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: all because it's not Obviously, the season plays a huge

489
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:17,359
Speaker 1: role in it, but it's the offseason now, is cheching, cheching? Cheching?

490
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:21,400
Speaker 1: And the NFL put this this out in my only belief,

491
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: I guess my educated guests, and why they'd want this

492
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: out there for the public and even to tell the

493
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: teams is to almost pressure them into keeping bad, incompetent coaches,

494
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,159
Speaker 1: because usually when a lot of coaches get fired, the

495
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 1: Rooney rule becomes a huge talking point. It just becomes

496
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: this whole negative thing. And and obviously there have been

497
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,199
Speaker 1: instances over the years where that we're bad, and there

498
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 1: have been ones like I've never had a problem, like

499
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 1: if you're gonna hire John Grewen, you're gonna hire John Ruden,

500
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: that I have to give some fake interview. But that's

501
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 1: just my educated guests. The reason that they don't want

502
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 1: these teams the fire coaches because the story was the

503
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 1: eight hundred million dollars has been spent over the last

504
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,120
Speaker 1: I didn't see the year, but maybe it was five years,

505
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: ten years whatever on fired coaches and fired executives in

506
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: the NFL, And I just went like that seems like

507
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 1: who cares? You know, how is that relevant? And honestly,

508
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 1: most of the fired coaches over the last I don't know,

509
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 1: let's just pick five years. I don't believe many coaches

510
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: that got fired where I went that guy got screwed,

511
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:29,919
Speaker 1: every single Brian Flores. But even Brian Flores, like he

512
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:33,679
Speaker 1: didn't tank right, he should have tanked. Losing three of

513
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: the last five or winning three of the last five

514
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,639
Speaker 1: games cost him. Joe fucking Burrow like that happened. And

515
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: then obviously they picked the wrong quarterback in two over Herbert,

516
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 1: but he tanked all season long and then at the

517
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 1: end he won absolute meaningless games. So like, if I

518
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,120
Speaker 1: owned the team and I wanted you to tank, which

519
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 1: clearly the owner did, I would have fired you too.

520
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,399
Speaker 1: You know, Brian Flores was a solid coach. Then he

521
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 1: won nineteen games the next two years, but that cost

522
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 1: me Joe Burrow, which chained the Bengals franchise. The Bengals

523
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: are gonna go to the playoffs every single year for

524
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,439
Speaker 1: the next decade and probably win a Super Bowl. The

525
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins are not, Like, that's a fact, Jack, but

526
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:10,640
Speaker 1: eight hundred million dollars. Let's just use the New York

527
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:14,399
Speaker 1: Giants as an example, because I believe that wealthy and

528
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 1: successful people will always take short term losses for long

529
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 1: term gains. They'll always eat the short term losses. A

530
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: lot of average I would say business people struggle with

531
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 1: little expenses. Oh, I can't pay for that, Well, is

532
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,119
Speaker 1: it going to end up making you more money in

533
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 1: the long run. Always take the take the take, take

534
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 1: the l take the expense, pay the money. And a

535
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 1: lot of people struggle with that because their natural reaction

536
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 1: is to be frugal. It's it's just a human reaction,

537
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 1: whether you have an unlimited amount of money or whether

538
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 1: you have one hundred dollars. And the Giants, who I

539
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 1: did some digging, let's just pick a number. They made

540
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 1: six hundred and six hundred million dollars in revenue last year,

541
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: and let's just say that over a four year span.

542
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 1: Because they fired Pat Shermer and his entire staff, they

543
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: fired Gettleman, and they fired Joe Judge and not just

544
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 1: those coaches, but all the coaches on the staff, and

545
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 1: then the higher new coaches cost them sixty million dollars.

546
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 1: And again I'm just picking even numbers, so we can

547
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: just do some math. Ten percent of their revenue they

548
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 1: paid to fire these people. That, let's face it, we're incompetent.

549
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: Not a soul would want Joe Judge to be as

550
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 1: head coach, and not a soul would want Pat Shermer

551
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: to be their head coach either. Now because of offset language,

552
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 1: Joe Judge is a coach right now for the Patriots.

553
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: Pat Schreber last year was a coach for the Denver Broncos.

554
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 1: So money gets offset because a lot of these coaches

555
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 1: get other jobs, and then those other jobs pay a

556
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 1: percentage of what you own. But even if it didn't,

557
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 1: So you pay sixty million dollars of your six hundred

558
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: million dollars revenue, ten percent of your revenue goes to

559
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: pay these people to go away. We'll look at the

560
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: Giants now. They ended up with Joe Shane and Brian Dable,

561
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 1: and they look like their future isn't just bright. They're

562
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,840
Speaker 1: going to make the playoffs. So what is just a

563
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: playoff birth to the Giants and restoring credibility in the

564
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 1: organization worth? I think if John Marrow was sitting here

565
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 1: and listen, I've never met the guy, but you know,

566
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 1: I wouldn't call him like Dean Spano's frugal. But I

567
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 1: also wouldn't say he's Jerry Jones. Probably somewhere in the middle,

568
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 1: he'd say, that's the best money we ever spent. Because

569
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 1: a lot of these coaches that are gonna get fired,

570
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 1: they usually deserve to get fired. I mean, how many

571
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 1: guys get let go and you went that guy. He

572
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: could have been Mike Tomlin. He could have been the

573
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: next Pete Carroll. Now, obviously Pete Carroll has been fired.

574
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick was once fired. Sometimes guys get fired and

575
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 1: it turns out they were good coaches for the most part.

576
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 1: In recent memory, we've seen a lot of crappy coaches

577
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 1: get fired, and just because of the business that they're in,

578
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 1: these enormous contracts, it's expensive to fire. But when you're

579
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 1: making six five, seven hundred million dollars in revenue, paying

580
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 1: some a group of people a total of thirty million

581
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 1: dollars to go away, isn't that crazy. You don't want

582
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 1: to be crazy spending fifty million dollars to pay someone

583
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: to go away. If you made thirty eight million dollars,

584
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 1: you'd be like, well, we're in the whole twelve million dollars.

585
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 1: That's a problem. When you're paying a percentage of people

586
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: to go away. For the long term health of your organization,

587
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 1: it's always the right move, and you're never gonna get

588
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 1: this right because just like drafting a quarterback in the

589
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:23,479
Speaker 1: first round, it's you never know. If teams knew, they

590
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 1: would never miss on hiring a coach. But that's not

591
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 1: the way it works. They miss all the time. The

592
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: forty nine ers years ago went back to back years.

593
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 1: They fired hard, bought now he got a job, so

594
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: it didn't matter. But then they hired Tom Stula, fired

595
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 1: him and all his coaches, hired Chip Kelly, and then

596
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 1: fired him and all his coaches, so they went two

597
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 1: for two. Do you think they regret that decision because

598
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 1: now six and a half years later, they're going to

599
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 1: the playoffs for the third time in their fourth year,

600
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 1: they've won four playoff games and Kyle Shanahan has the

601
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: forty nine ers rule. Do you think for one second

602
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 1: Jed York has regretted paying all that money to fire

603
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 1: that you could argue never should have been hired in

604
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 1: the first place. But that's sports, that's life. I think

605
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 1: how many people if you're listening to this right now

606
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: and you run a small business, you run a deli,

607
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 1: you run a big corporation, you're gonna miss on hiring

608
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 1: all the time, no matter how much information you have.

609
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 1: It's you're dealing with human beings. Certain people might actually

610
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,040
Speaker 1: be qualified, but they just don't fit the personality. Certain

611
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: people might have the personality, but they might not have

612
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 1: the qualifications. And in football, in just a position of leadership,

613
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 1: whether you're middle management in corporate America or whether you're

614
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 1: a head coach in the NFL, you never really know

615
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 1: how they're going to react in that situation until they

616
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,959
Speaker 1: actually do it. Like I was thinking about the Lions.

617
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: They have this offensive coordinator, Ben Johnson, who clearly is

618
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 1: pretty impressive. He's in his mid thirties, and I would

619
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 1: guess he's gonna get some head coaching interviews this offseason.

620
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 1: There's a chance he has no business being a head coach.

621
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 1: I don't know the guy, honestly, don't know anything about

622
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 1: him beside over this last month and a half because

623
00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: offense has been really good. So I started doing a

624
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: little research on just his bio and just because anytime

625
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: you have success as a coordinator, you kind of get

626
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 1: an interviewed. Now, how is he going to be as

627
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 1: a leader of the whole team, because if the Lions

628
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 1: keep winning and then next year they win, he'll probably

629
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 1: become a head coach. I got no clue, Like I

630
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 1: could give a better answer on Demiko Ryans, the forty

631
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 1: nine Ers defensive coordinator. Why he was a team captain

632
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Every single place he went was very

633
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 1: highly viewed. Started as a low level coach, worked his

634
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 1: way up as a position coach, then became a coordinator,

635
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 1: and the defense kept getting better every guy on the

636
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 1: team high they respects him, like it feels like it's

637
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 1: gonna work, but it might not. You know what, if

638
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 1: he gets hired and doesn't have a quarterback, so there's

639
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,000
Speaker 1: a chance that you give him thirty forty million dollars

640
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 1: in his staff in three years, you have to fire him.

641
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: So the NFL, to me, the only logic I can

642
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: glean from why they would want this out there and

643
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 1: why they would tell teams because they don't want a

644
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 1: bunch of people getting fired because it just brings up

645
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 1: negative conversation out there kind of in the ether with

646
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 1: the media, and let's face it, the majority of guys

647
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: that end up getting hired or like Shanahan and McVeigh guys,

648
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,000
Speaker 1: So it's a bunch of skinny guys. But like if

649
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury gets fired, like I'm sorry, just who why

650
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: shouldn't he get fired? Like if Brandon Staley is one

651
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,320
Speaker 1: and done with Justin Herbert in the playoffs, like should

652
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 1: he keep his job? Right? Does Steve Wilkes just get

653
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:15,840
Speaker 1: to keep his job because he won some kind of

654
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 1: meaningless games? If Lovey Smith is one and done and

655
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:23,240
Speaker 1: wins one game, he didn't get enough time maybe just sucks.

656
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: Lovey Smith's had seven head coaching opportunities and has sucked

657
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,959
Speaker 1: at everyone in the last three times, like maybe maybe

658
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 1: some guys just aren't good enough. In the reality is,

659
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 1: most guys are not, but there's a small percentage of

660
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 1: head coaches that are good at their job. Football season

691
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 1: a little bit, most times, and I've said this over

692
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 1: and over about Tom Brady, and I think Belichick now

693
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 1: falls under this. Most guys at the end of their

694
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: career in sports, it ends ugly. Most guys do not

695
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 1: end up holding the Lombardi Trophy, holding the NBA Finals MVP.

696
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 1: Most guys go out, you know, missing the playoffs, having

697
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:45,439
Speaker 1: some ugly years. I use this analogy all the time

698
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 1: or this like this player and team, And I obviously

699
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 1: was well before I was alive, but I always heard

700
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 1: it Willie Mays for the Mets, Like from what I heard,

701
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:58,799
Speaker 1: pretty ugly. Not an ideal situation for arguably the second

702
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,799
Speaker 1: or third greatest player in the history of baseball. Right,

703
00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 1: Usually great players the end of their career go out

704
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 1: looking like a scrub. And you know, Tom Brady, whether

705
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: he retires or not, like this year has been beyond ugly.

706
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick just lost in the game where I believe

707
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,439
Speaker 1: that the players went rogue. I do not believe that

708
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 1: inside the huddle Mac Jones told the running back Jacobe

709
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 1: Myers and everyone else to start lateraling it like a

710
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:31,919
Speaker 1: rugby play. But regardless, Bill Belichick is also the guy

711
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 1: that hired Matt Patricia and Joe judge to run his offense.

712
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: That would not have been tolerated at any of the

713
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 1: other thirty one NFL teams or any Power five program

714
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,600
Speaker 1: worth their salt. That you couldn't have done. That you

715
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:48,400
Speaker 1: would have been not only laughed out of the building,

716
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 1: that there would have been a mutiny of the fans

717
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 1: and the leadership. It wouldn't have been allowed. Yet Belichick,

718
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,359
Speaker 1: because of the equity that he has, and he has

719
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 1: a lot, was able to do really whatever he wants

720
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 1: and craft and rightfully so. But this has been a disaster.

721
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 1: And Tom based on the equity that he has from

722
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 1: watching him for however many years now, he's been the

723
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 1: starting quarterbacks since two two thousand and one, twenty twenty two,

724
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:13,279
Speaker 1: so twenty one twenty two plus years. We just got

725
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: this is it's gonna get better. It's he's gonna figure

726
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 1: it out. He just doesn't throwing picks. He has five

727
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 1: picks the last three games, the fumble yesterday, he just

728
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:24,399
Speaker 1: he looks atrocious. And it feels like both these guys

729
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 1: are going out And I understood why they split. I

730
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 1: understand why Bill went, you're old, You're never gonna be

731
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 1: able to win eventually, gonna fall off a cliff and

732
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 1: I understand where Tom Brady said, f you, I'm gonna

733
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:36,839
Speaker 1: prove it to you, and he ultimately did. But like

734
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,120
Speaker 1: I get why those guys wanted to break apart. Right,

735
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:42,520
Speaker 1: most human beings in the highest level of any profession

736
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,600
Speaker 1: are not able to work together. For I would say,

737
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 1: if you go a decade at hand in hand in

738
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,440
Speaker 1: sports with someone moving forward, that's going to be an

739
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:55,279
Speaker 1: unprecedented number. Right. The chances that Sean McDermott and Josh

740
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 1: Allen spend fifteen years together, I would say probably, not

741
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,280
Speaker 1: right Mahomes and Andy probably, but even at any sixty four.

742
00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 1: So if they've already been together, what this is your five,

743
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 1: it is your six. Let's just let's just pick your five.

744
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,680
Speaker 1: It might be your six. But if Andy coaches another

745
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 1: ten years to get the fifteen, he'd be coaching into

746
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 1: his mid seventies, which you know, do you have another

747
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,680
Speaker 1: sixty years, maybe retires at seventy. That would be less

748
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:20,919
Speaker 1: than a decade of those two guys together, and they're

749
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,280
Speaker 1: obviously having a ton of success. It's very, very difficult.

750
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:26,799
Speaker 1: I never have a problem with people needing to go

751
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: their separate ways after a long period of time unless

752
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 1: you're like a you know you're happily married. But most people,

753
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 1: and you see it in marriages, fifty percent of marriages

754
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 1: get a divorce. Well, if fifty percent of marriages get

755
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,880
Speaker 1: a divorce, how many of the other fifty percent probably

756
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 1: could another fifteen twenty percent? Like how many partners in

757
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 1: business they go for decades, haven't liked each other for

758
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: a long period of time, or maybe don't see eye

759
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 1: to eye, or maybe aren't as close as you realize.

760
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,759
Speaker 1: It probably happens all over the place, right most people

761
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,920
Speaker 1: in business, because listen, there's as you get older, your

762
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 1: priorities change, Money creates division, It's it's natural. But this

763
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 1: is getting pretty ugly for both guys. And I understand

764
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: Tom Brady. He's not gonna want to retire on a

765
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 1: Bucks team, which is atrocious. I mean, that second half

766
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 1: was an absolute blood bath against the Bengals, but it

767
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,880
Speaker 1: should have been. The Bengals are dramatically better. I mean,

768
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 1: the Bengals could win the Super Bowl. The Bucks are

769
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,399
Speaker 1: like a seven win team, and they beat the living

770
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 1: shit out of him as the game went on, because

771
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 1: if they played ten times, the Bengals were winning that game.

772
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty two, what nine times? I mean the

773
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,319
Speaker 1: Bengals would beat them on neutral fields on the road

774
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 1: at home, I would say ninety percent of the time,

775
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,719
Speaker 1: And honestly this year, the way they're both playing right

776
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 1: now could be ten out of ten. And Belichick the

777
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 1: Raiders are not the most button up operation. I have

778
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:48,359
Speaker 1: a diehard Raider fan that I'm on a text chain

779
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 1: with Sy Williams. He's he's the headman's golf coach at

780
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: UC Davis, and I think he went to the game

781
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,359
Speaker 1: yesterday and I'm on this text chain's and he was mad.

782
00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 1: And this guy's a diehard Raider fan. He said, the

783
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,879
Speaker 1: problem with the game ending like that is it takes

784
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:04,640
Speaker 1: Josh McDaniel off the hook. How terrible he was, not

785
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:08,040
Speaker 1: just yesterday but this season, because it feels like, you know,

786
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:09,759
Speaker 1: you get a little life after the tuck rule. The

787
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,879
Speaker 1: NFL football gods are throwing you a bone. They had

788
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,279
Speaker 1: no business winning that game. Honestly, they got lucky because

789
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 1: the ref screwed up the call when Derek drew the

790
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 1: touchdown because his foot was on the white But Bill

791
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,319
Speaker 1: Belichick's team did that to end the game. But then

792
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,360
Speaker 1: you look as Jacoby's about to throw it. Who do

793
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:30,800
Speaker 1: you see in the background, Matt Patricia and Joe Judge.

794
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:32,799
Speaker 1: And it wouldn't be that weird if Joe Judge was

795
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 1: their special teams coach. They're special teams. Yesterday allowed a

796
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 1: block punt. One thing. When I watched the Patriots, just

797
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 1: like you did over a twenty year period, special teams

798
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,319
Speaker 1: was always an area that they separated from that was

799
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 1: like a separator. You know, any successful operation has certain

800
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 1: things that they separate from the competition. The Patriots were

801
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 1: not some like throw bombs offense. They played good defense.

802
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,759
Speaker 1: Tom was clutch and was always he didn't turn the

803
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:02,839
Speaker 1: ball over. And their Special teams, and I'm over generalizing here,

804
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 1: was always just buttoned up operation. They're getting puns blocked.

805
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 1: And then that visual of that throwback going to Chandler

806
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:14,359
Speaker 1: Jones with those two guys in the background, Like it's

807
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,400
Speaker 1: just getting ugly for both these guys, and ugly relative

808
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 1: to their standards. Tom Brady is still going to make

809
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,760
Speaker 1: the playoffs because his division sucks, and Bill Belichick honestly

810
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,360
Speaker 1: might too or still go nine and eight. But god,

811
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,319
Speaker 1: I mean they just I thought these two guys were

812
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:30,480
Speaker 1: better than the rest, but it shows you they're no

813
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:34,520
Speaker 1: different like the majority of players and of great coaches.

814
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 1: It ends pretty ugly. And last but not least, I'm

815
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:41,160
Speaker 1: pretty interested. Actually got one college thing too. But Zach

816
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:45,239
Speaker 1: Wilson Trevor Lawrence on Thursday night, I'm fascinated. You know

817
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 1: where I stand on Zach Wilson. He has some physical

818
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 1: attributes that were really impressive. He made some impressive just

819
00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:54,280
Speaker 1: deep ball throws and honestly some of the wide receivers

820
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:57,080
Speaker 1: made good plays. But his just basic understanding of the

821
00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:00,279
Speaker 1: pisition is pretty terrible. It is ability to just do

822
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: the easy stuff, you know, is not He's not capable.

823
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:07,920
Speaker 1: He cannot make consistent basic throws and until he figures

824
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 1: that out, he's never gonna be a good quarterback. And

825
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, who you know a lot of people heralded

826
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 1: as this next great player, is starting to kind of

827
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 1: come into that. He had you could argue the best

828
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:21,920
Speaker 1: game he's ever had in his NFL career and I's

829
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:25,680
Speaker 1: short yesterday against the Dallas Cowboys. It was awesome to watch.

830
00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:27,600
Speaker 1: And if you just watch him at the eye test,

831
00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 1: he doesn't quite have like the arm strength I would

832
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,400
Speaker 1: say of like Josh Allen or even Patrick Mahomes. But

833
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:36,640
Speaker 1: his athleticism, when his accuracy, when he's in rhythm, he's

834
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:41,359
Speaker 1: a really fun player to watch. And the Jets, who

835
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 1: I saw a report this morning on Monday morning that

836
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 1: Mike White probably will not be able to get cleared

837
00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:51,080
Speaker 1: because of the rib situation that Zach Wilson, now you know,

838
00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 1: in a weird way cost this team that if you

839
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 1: watch him, go God, they just got a lot of talent.

840
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,720
Speaker 1: They are really physical on defense, their offensive skill guys

841
00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:03,920
Speaker 1: are really good. Get their quarterback play is so shitty.

842
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:06,920
Speaker 1: And this guy if he loses this game to the Jacks,

843
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,080
Speaker 1: who are I would say, kind of sneaky red hot,

844
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 1: and they're gonna come in thinking they can win that game.

845
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,080
Speaker 1: And if Sauce Gardner and DJ Reid are just not

846
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:16,719
Speaker 1: able to keep playing out of their ass, you lose

847
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 1: this game and Zach Wilson has another one of those

848
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:21,440
Speaker 1: turns the ball over miss is these just basic throws.

849
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:24,759
Speaker 1: I just I said it the other day. I do

850
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 1: believe in the NFL, unlike any of the other sports,

851
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:29,399
Speaker 1: you can go to the outhouse, to the penhouse, back

852
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:31,640
Speaker 1: to the outhouse, back to the Penhouse quick. It's a

853
00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 1: lot of people's careers have been in the dumps and

854
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:36,960
Speaker 1: come back made Pro Bowls. Like you can flip things quickly,

855
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 1: but this jet thing. Look at the body language of

856
00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 1: the wide receivers playing with them. I think it was

857
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:45,400
Speaker 1: Charles Davis calling the game and it was Garrett Wilson.

858
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:47,839
Speaker 1: He overthrew on a slant round and Garrett Wilson gave

859
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:50,239
Speaker 1: this terrible body language, and Charles is like, you know,

860
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,680
Speaker 1: receivers never want their quarterback to throw them, you know,

861
00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:55,640
Speaker 1: kind of show them up. You can't. You have to

862
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:57,200
Speaker 1: do the same thing as a receiver. You can't show

863
00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,840
Speaker 1: up your quarterback. And I'm like, well not when you

864
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:03,359
Speaker 1: don't respect the guy. When you respect someone, you have

865
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 1: to kind of, you know, Curtail, control your emotions when

866
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 1: I don't respect you and I don't think you're any good.

867
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,200
Speaker 1: I don't blame the wide receivers. Now, you could argue

868
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,760
Speaker 1: it's a team game. You just gotta figure it out

869
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 1: and play under control and not snap at the guy.

870
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 1: But this guy is going to cost you the playoffs

871
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,319
Speaker 1: if he doesn't start making some basic plays again. He

872
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:26,120
Speaker 1: could hit some deep routes scrambling around, jump over a

873
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,399
Speaker 1: defensive lineman. But if you can't hit an out route,

874
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:30,400
Speaker 1: if you can't hit a slant, if you can't hit

875
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:32,880
Speaker 1: the basic wheel route or dump off to your to

876
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,600
Speaker 1: your running back, you're just not going to be any good.

877
00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:37,879
Speaker 1: And this is the last, but not least. I saw

878
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:43,760
Speaker 1: Mac Brown, the head coach of the North Carolina tar Heels.

879
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:47,160
Speaker 1: He has a quarterback, Drake May that next year will

880
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:49,680
Speaker 1: probably if things continue like they did this year. And

881
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:51,640
Speaker 1: you never know college. You say this a lot and

882
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 1: then the guy ends up not going as high as

883
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 1: you think. But if Caleb Williams is gonna be the

884
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:56,080
Speaker 1: number one pick, this guy very well could be the

885
00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:58,640
Speaker 1: number two overall pick in the draft. And he said

886
00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 1: today I think he was giving a press because they

887
00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,359
Speaker 1: play Oregon in a bowl like is a like Bowl

888
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:06,960
Speaker 1: press conference, that a lot of teams were reaching out

889
00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:09,840
Speaker 1: to Drake May, even though he's not in the transfer portal.

890
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,120
Speaker 1: He came out and said I'm gonna stay at North

891
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,839
Speaker 1: Carolina and started offering him big money. And then when

892
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,399
Speaker 1: asked like what specific teams, He's like, you guys can

893
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:20,800
Speaker 1: figure it out. The ones paying everybody. Obviously, Texas would

894
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:22,799
Speaker 1: probably not be in the mix because they got Archie

895
00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:26,200
Speaker 1: Manning and yours Texas A and M has no quarterback.

896
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:28,319
Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say them George is gonna

897
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:31,520
Speaker 1: lose at quarterback. Alabama's gonna lose their quarterback. It's pretty

898
00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,239
Speaker 1: clear who probably offered him and his whole deal. Was like,

899
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,640
Speaker 1: how shady this is? And then I started thinking, is

900
00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 1: it really? I love capitalism and coaches love capitalism. Why

901
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,200
Speaker 1: because you can be at North Carolina and Alabama or

902
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:47,759
Speaker 1: Texas can call you up and hire you. Didn't that

903
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 1: happen to Mac Brown when he left North Carolina once

904
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:53,000
Speaker 1: upon a time to go to Texas. Coaches leave all

905
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:56,279
Speaker 1: the time. Didn't Lincoln Riley when he was under contract

906
00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:59,640
Speaker 1: at Oklahoma get called up by USC and said, here's

907
00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:01,759
Speaker 1: a hundred twenty million dollars, will buy your house in

908
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 1: Oklahoma and we'll give you a house here on the

909
00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:06,000
Speaker 1: water for you and your wife. That doesn't that happen constantly?

910
00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:10,720
Speaker 1: And I understand that in that situation you're under contract,

911
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:14,120
Speaker 1: there buyouts, there are no necessarily contracts here. But I

912
00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:17,800
Speaker 1: think coaches are being somewhat hypocritical because if I'm Texas

913
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:19,600
Speaker 1: A at AM and I got no quarterback and I

914
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 1: got all this money. You'd be crazy not to reach

915
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:24,399
Speaker 1: out to this kid. How much would it cost you now?

916
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,319
Speaker 1: Does it sound a little shady? The guys are just

917
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,840
Speaker 1: getting bought And MATC. Brown did have a good point.

918
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:31,160
Speaker 1: He thinks a lot of people are being offered money

919
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,839
Speaker 1: and over these next couple of years are not going

920
00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:37,520
Speaker 1: to receive it. Right for every Caleb Williams or Will Anderson,

921
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,759
Speaker 1: even though I heard will Anderson didn't even take much

922
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 1: nil money. But like the great players that live up

923
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:44,960
Speaker 1: to the height, if I was a booster and I

924
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:46,759
Speaker 1: was like, hey, listen, I got no problem. Here's a

925
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:48,360
Speaker 1: million dollars, even though I think that would be a

926
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,799
Speaker 1: little weird, but let's just say, and then the guys

927
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:54,440
Speaker 1: I'm paying suck, I'd be like, is anything legally obligating

928
00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:55,879
Speaker 1: me to pay them? Because if not, like I ain't

929
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 1: paying them. I'm not saying I would never probably be

930
00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:00,919
Speaker 1: a booster, but I would imagine a lot of people

931
00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 1: around the country. That's gonna happen. And he's even saying

932
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:07,560
Speaker 1: it's happening now. But I have no problem with the

933
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:12,200
Speaker 1: program going. Drake May immediately makes us a national championship contender.

934
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:16,080
Speaker 1: Let's how much would it reach out to him? Because

935
00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 1: that happens in coaching. Like, I just think it's very

936
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 1: It's easy to say it and at first reaction to

937
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:23,480
Speaker 1: be like, god, it's kind of shady, and then you

938
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 1: realize the guy that's coming out of his mouth is

939
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:32,080
Speaker 1: a guy that's left programs before for brighter opportunities. Now, ultimately,

940
00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:33,760
Speaker 1: he can be the number one pick in the draft

941
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:36,279
Speaker 1: from the University of North Carolina. He doesn't have to

942
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:38,880
Speaker 1: go to Georgia or Alabama or Texas A and M

943
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:42,520
Speaker 1: to win a national championship, right or I mean to

944
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:44,040
Speaker 1: be the number one pick in the draft, but he's

945
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 1: not gonna win the national championship North Carolina. That is

946
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:47,640
Speaker 1: not going to happen. So if you wanted to win

947
00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:50,040
Speaker 1: a national championship, if you went to Georgia like they

948
00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:52,400
Speaker 1: would be the heavy favorites next year. So do I

949
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 1: blame them? Assuming it was them, which I think it's

950
00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:57,520
Speaker 1: fair to assume, some powerhouse programs called them up and

951
00:48:57,560 --> 00:48:59,680
Speaker 1: offered them big cash. I think that's the right move.

952
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 1: If I was on those staffs, I'd be doing the

953
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:06,520
Speaker 1: same thing. Let's dive into the Middlecoff mail bag at

954
00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:10,200
Speaker 1: John Middlecoff is the Instagram fire in those dms, get

955
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:12,400
Speaker 1: your questioned answered here on the show before we do.

956
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:14,960
Speaker 1: I wanted to get in do someone hit me up today?

957
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:19,480
Speaker 1: And they were not happy that I contradicted myself, as

958
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:22,600
Speaker 1: they said, because last week I gave a take that

959
00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:26,280
Speaker 1: the Rams, with how well Jared Goff was playing, should

960
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:29,080
Speaker 1: think about rolling it back next year with him if

961
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,080
Speaker 1: they don't like any of these quarterbacks and not having

962
00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:36,320
Speaker 1: to force one of these quarterbacks and ultimately just using

963
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:39,960
Speaker 1: the Rams draft pick on Will Anderson or one of

964
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 1: the sweet players and then using their pick and just

965
00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:45,160
Speaker 1: keep loading up their roster. And then I watched them

966
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 1: against the Jets, one of the better defenses in the league,

967
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:52,040
Speaker 1: and I thought, God, he's got limitations. He really does.

968
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:55,360
Speaker 1: And I came back and I said yesterday that you know,

969
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:58,920
Speaker 1: I don't know, you might just have to pull the trigger. Now. Listen,

970
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:01,640
Speaker 1: I'm not in to pull the trigger on a guy

971
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,319
Speaker 1: that can't move like a pocket quarterback. To me, if

972
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:05,879
Speaker 1: you get a guy with a high upside that can

973
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:07,960
Speaker 1: move that you really like, I would think about it.

974
00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:13,600
Speaker 1: But my opinion in doing this is fluid and I'm

975
00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:15,600
Speaker 1: not always going to be right, and I see something

976
00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:19,320
Speaker 1: and I'll change my opinion. Now, just because the Chargers

977
00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:21,279
Speaker 1: win a game, I'm not gonna come say that the

978
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:24,600
Speaker 1: Chargers shouldn't blow out Brandon Staley and go hire Sean Payton.

979
00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:27,720
Speaker 1: I believe they should. But once I watched Jared Goff

980
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:31,520
Speaker 1: in a high leverage game against a really good defense,

981
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 1: I went, yeah, I could see being the GM. How

982
00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:37,040
Speaker 1: I would aspire to have more. Now, the best part

983
00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:39,719
Speaker 1: about having Goff is he's under contract for the next

984
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:41,600
Speaker 1: couple of years, like twenty five million dollars a year,

985
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:42,959
Speaker 1: and you can get out of the contract with ease.

986
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:47,880
Speaker 1: But you know you this year right because of the

987
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:50,520
Speaker 1: Rams pick, you are drafting high. So I understand, like,

988
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:53,279
Speaker 1: these are conversations you have to have. And this guy

989
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:56,040
Speaker 1: in the in the conversation again, we had a healthy

990
00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:59,920
Speaker 1: back and forth called me Skip Bayliss, which the iron

991
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:03,560
Speaker 1: about calling me Skip Bayliss. Skip stays with a take

992
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 1: right and he doesn't pivot. I have no problem changing

993
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 1: my opinion. I'm in the information business and my information

994
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:15,400
Speaker 1: is based on people I talk to and obviously the games,

995
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:17,879
Speaker 1: and as I witnessed things, I got God, I might

996
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:21,840
Speaker 1: need to change my take. Like I loved this company

997
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:26,120
Speaker 1: called Skills. I've invested seventy five thousand dollars in them

998
00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:29,880
Speaker 1: over the years. It's currently down eighty five percent. You

999
00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 1: know what, I don't love Skills. I liked him a

1000
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 1: lot more in twenty twenty one than I currently do

1001
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:40,520
Speaker 1: December nineteenth, Monday, twenty twenty two, because again I'm down

1002
00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:44,479
Speaker 1: eighty five percent. So as new information comes my way,

1003
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:47,799
Speaker 1: I'll change my opinion. And I honestly think that's why

1004
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:49,560
Speaker 1: a lot of people enjoy listening to me, Like I'm

1005
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,120
Speaker 1: not stuck to anything. And I'm also like, I don't

1006
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:56,480
Speaker 1: think I know everything I just saw firsthand. And my

1007
00:51:56,520 --> 00:51:59,400
Speaker 1: take on that was Zach Wilson Trey Lance. These teams

1008
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:03,080
Speaker 1: forced quarter backs and they both immediately regretted it, Like

1009
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:05,399
Speaker 1: if both those two teams could have a redo, they

1010
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 1: would do a redo. And that's my point. Obviously, you

1011
00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:13,759
Speaker 1: can win games with Jared Goff, but you know, just

1012
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:16,680
Speaker 1: there's something about a quarterback. And it's not that I

1013
00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:19,680
Speaker 1: didn't know this, but when you really see it in

1014
00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:22,879
Speaker 1: a high leverage moment, you go, God, that was kind

1015
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:24,760
Speaker 1: of regret that. Now I don't know if the quarterback

1016
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 1: is there is worth taking because to me, after Bryce,

1017
00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:30,120
Speaker 1: if he's gonna go number one, who's the second best quarterback?

1018
00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:33,920
Speaker 1: To me, the second best quarterback prospect is Will Levis.

1019
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:38,040
Speaker 1: I mean that's just that's a fact, right. People are CJ.

1020
00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:40,840
Speaker 1: Stroud is not good of a prospect. He's had a

1021
00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:43,959
Speaker 1: better college career, but I'm telling you he is going

1022
00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:47,719
Speaker 1: to once CJ. Stroud gets in the draft process. He's

1023
00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:50,120
Speaker 1: not a very good athlete. And this is what happens

1024
00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:52,960
Speaker 1: with Jared Goff. When you can't move at all, you

1025
00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:55,879
Speaker 1: just limit yourself. In this modern day NFL, well John

1026
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:58,279
Speaker 1: all the pocket quarterbacks, yeah, there have never been this

1027
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:01,200
Speaker 1: many defensive lineman that and move at the speed in

1028
00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:03,960
Speaker 1: which they move. So your quarterback, I'm not asking for

1029
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:07,359
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, but he has to be athletic. He has

1030
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:09,200
Speaker 1: to be able to keep plays alive with his feet.

1031
00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:11,600
Speaker 1: And that's why I'm telling you a lot of people

1032
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:15,200
Speaker 1: are gonna like Will Levis. People think I'm crazy. Maybe

1033
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:17,640
Speaker 1: I am. I mean I am a little bit, but

1034
00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:19,960
Speaker 1: and I'm not even the biggest Like, I don't know

1035
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:21,680
Speaker 1: if Will Levi is gonna work or not. Though I

1036
00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:24,400
Speaker 1: did hear Sean Payton tell I've heard him say this

1037
00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 1: a couple of times. He likes him. Remember the last

1038
00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:29,880
Speaker 1: you know, big time project he liked Patrick Mahomes never

1039
00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:33,360
Speaker 1: heard of him. At the end of hard Knock's training camp,

1040
00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 1: I thought I was gonna go into the season with

1041
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:39,680
Speaker 1: fairly high expectations of the Lions. This Taylor. After the

1042
00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:42,400
Speaker 1: win against the fraudulent Vikings, I thought they were a

1043
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:45,520
Speaker 1: good team. Then they played a tough Jets team on

1044
00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:47,920
Speaker 1: the road and still pulled out a win despite the

1045
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,680
Speaker 1: offense not being quite as good and getting hit with

1046
00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:54,239
Speaker 1: some costly penalties. I think the Lions are for real

1047
00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:57,400
Speaker 1: and there is a road to playoff appearance. If they

1048
00:53:57,520 --> 00:53:59,960
Speaker 1: make it to the postseason, do they make a run?

1049
00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:05,200
Speaker 1: Loyal Lions fan well, I would say if the Lions

1050
00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:10,680
Speaker 1: make the playoffs, so basically win out, if their draw

1051
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:14,239
Speaker 1: would be very dependent on their success. If they play

1052
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:17,560
Speaker 1: the Vikings in the first round, they would view that

1053
00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:20,440
Speaker 1: game as a very very good chance to win. And

1054
00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:22,800
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people would bet on the Lions,

1055
00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:25,120
Speaker 1: and I might put money as well on the Lions

1056
00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:28,600
Speaker 1: if they had won whatever four more games, so they

1057
00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:32,280
Speaker 1: had won ten of their last eleven games after starting

1058
00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:36,360
Speaker 1: you know one seven that would be or one in six?

1059
00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:39,400
Speaker 1: Would they end up eleven and six? There, what's the

1060
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:41,080
Speaker 1: record now seven and seven, So I guess they would

1061
00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:42,799
Speaker 1: end up ten and seven, So they would win nine

1062
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:46,960
Speaker 1: of ten games going into the playoffs playing Minnesota, I

1063
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:48,799
Speaker 1: think a lot of people would gamble on them. If

1064
00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:50,640
Speaker 1: the nine Ers were to end the two seed. End

1065
00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:52,400
Speaker 1: up at the two seed, I think they would be

1066
00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:54,840
Speaker 1: in some trouble and I would not pick the Lions

1067
00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:57,120
Speaker 1: to win the game, but I would say this, if

1068
00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 1: you're able to make the playoffs for the Lions, it's

1069
00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,479
Speaker 1: one of the greatest accomplishments I've ever seen. Started one

1070
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:06,759
Speaker 1: in six just to be in the conversation, find a

1071
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:10,600
Speaker 1: way to win that game, I would be very very happy.

1072
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:14,319
Speaker 1: For the mail bag. Fresno State has a talented group

1073
00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:16,440
Speaker 1: of seniors going to the draft. Can I hear your

1074
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:20,080
Speaker 1: thoughts on the potential of their NFL of their of

1075
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:25,040
Speaker 1: the following guy's NFL potential Jake Hayner, Jalen Cropper, and

1076
00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:29,040
Speaker 1: maybe Jordan mims Well, I can only speak on Cropper,

1077
00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:31,239
Speaker 1: who I think will probably be like a second third

1078
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:35,040
Speaker 1: round pick. He's a really good player. Jordan Mims I've

1079
00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:37,920
Speaker 1: liked for years now. He's a older running back. Probably

1080
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:41,360
Speaker 1: be a draft pick in like the fourth round. To me, Haner,

1081
00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 1: I reached out to people last year when he was

1082
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:47,080
Speaker 1: thinking about coming out, trying to help him out, and

1083
00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:49,359
Speaker 1: he was viewed as like a late round pick. It's

1084
00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:52,520
Speaker 1: why he went back to school. Well, this year he's

1085
00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:55,759
Speaker 1: had very similar to last year, a fantastic season. He

1086
00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:58,480
Speaker 1: also got banged up in the USC game. You know,

1087
00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:01,479
Speaker 1: I would say a lot like Rock Purty, I would

1088
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:04,040
Speaker 1: call Jake Hanner a seventh round pick. And a lot

1089
00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:07,760
Speaker 1: of that is based off just size. You know, teams

1090
00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:13,280
Speaker 1: are very hesitant to draft smaller quarterbacks from smaller schools

1091
00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 1: really high. I know Bryce's gonna go number one, but

1092
00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:18,839
Speaker 1: staring at Alabama for a couple of years a little

1093
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:21,640
Speaker 1: different animal. So I would say Cropper second day pick.

1094
00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:24,560
Speaker 1: I would say the running back probably a fourth round pick,

1095
00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:27,560
Speaker 1: and I would say Haner probably a seventh round pick.

1096
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:31,480
Speaker 1: It will be my guess. The other guys I don't

1097
00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:34,680
Speaker 1: really have an opinion on. I know I know Goodell

1098
00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:36,960
Speaker 1: doesn't care, but that no call at the end of

1099
00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:40,000
Speaker 1: the Giants game is ridiculous. Is this a sign of

1100
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:43,080
Speaker 1: how the playoffs will Bill will be? You figure with

1101
00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:45,719
Speaker 1: gambling being as popular as that, they would address this

1102
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,960
Speaker 1: love the show talked about the beginning. Man, It's just

1103
00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:54,680
Speaker 1: at this point you would say, it's like unfathomable and

1104
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:58,920
Speaker 1: unbelievable that they can keep having these moments with the officiating.

1105
00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:02,440
Speaker 1: But it happens over and over and over again, and

1106
00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:04,680
Speaker 1: they just do not care. And one thing these leagues

1107
00:57:04,680 --> 00:57:07,520
Speaker 1: have shown, like the NBA is taking all this money

1108
00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,920
Speaker 1: from gambling companies now, even though we don't gamble on

1109
00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:14,400
Speaker 1: that sport nearly like we do about football. And I

1110
00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:17,360
Speaker 1: gotta give Brian Winhorse a lot of credit. He's adamant.

1111
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:20,400
Speaker 1: How bullshit it is that the NBA teams the way

1112
00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:22,680
Speaker 1: they treat the injury report. At least in the NFL

1113
00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:26,240
Speaker 1: there is a Monday, Wednesday, and Friday injury report, so

1114
00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:29,240
Speaker 1: if you're questionable, if you're probable, you're on the list

1115
00:57:29,360 --> 00:57:31,840
Speaker 1: all week long. Where in the NBA does not work

1116
00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:35,480
Speaker 1: like that, and no one cares these leagues look at gambling,

1117
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,040
Speaker 1: it just doesn't. I mean, guys, go in. I'm a

1118
00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:40,920
Speaker 1: golf I gamble on the PGA tour guys are injured

1119
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:43,280
Speaker 1: all the time and withdraw after Thursday and we have

1120
00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:45,760
Speaker 1: no clue. How is that fair? If I gamble on

1121
00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:48,240
Speaker 1: someone turns out he's got a messed up risk and

1122
00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:51,280
Speaker 1: we don't know. So these leagues want to take all

1123
00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:54,200
Speaker 1: this money and they want us the consumer, to spend

1124
00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 1: all these moneys with these companies, so they then invest

1125
00:57:57,120 --> 00:57:59,720
Speaker 1: in the leagues and give us no information. Like you

1126
00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:04,120
Speaker 1: can have both ways. The officiating has to be above board.

1127
00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:07,440
Speaker 1: The injuries have to be above board. You don't need

1128
00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:09,280
Speaker 1: to tell us like he's got a hairline fracture, but

1129
00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:10,680
Speaker 1: you have to say he's got a leg injury and

1130
00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:13,040
Speaker 1: he might not play. So if you're gonna gamble on

1131
00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:16,600
Speaker 1: this team, no, Jalen hurts. He's injured now. So we

1132
00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:20,280
Speaker 1: might look at the Eagles a little bit differently. Can

1133
00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:23,000
Speaker 1: I ask you a question about my Ravens? How much

1134
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:25,840
Speaker 1: blame wrest on the coaching staff? Justin Tucker is the

1135
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:27,840
Speaker 1: only threat we have in the red zone this season,

1136
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:31,520
Speaker 1: and the play calling seems off. They ran for two

1137
00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:34,440
Speaker 1: hundred yards against the Browns, but they kept attempting to

1138
00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:37,680
Speaker 1: throw it. I've heard that even some staff called for

1139
00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:41,480
Speaker 1: some on the staff called for Roman's job. What's your opinion.

1140
00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:44,880
Speaker 1: I think Greg Roman has a little bit of a

1141
00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:48,800
Speaker 1: shelf life. I vividly remember when he got fired with

1142
00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:52,800
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers to Harbo's last year. Greg Roman

1143
00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:59,120
Speaker 1: is fantastic at developing, coaching, scheming, and executing the run

1144
00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:02,760
Speaker 1: game with our ball, with both hardball brothers, he's thrived.

1145
00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:05,520
Speaker 1: But I remember when he tried to transition to more

1146
00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:08,160
Speaker 1: of a passing offense with the Niners. It did not work.

1147
00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:10,960
Speaker 1: And they had Crabtree, they had Vernon Davis like they

1148
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 1: had some weapons clearly with the Ravens now in fairness,

1149
00:59:14,680 --> 00:59:19,120
Speaker 1: the receivers when they traded Hollywood away his abatement injured,

1150
00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:22,600
Speaker 1: so they battled injuries. They're also playing with Tyler Huntley,

1151
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:26,080
Speaker 1: who if anyone watched him at Utah and I told

1152
00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:27,960
Speaker 1: you this guy is not just gonna start games. When

1153
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:29,960
Speaker 1: he starts games, you're gonna think his team might win,

1154
00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:31,560
Speaker 1: you would have been like, no way, not in the

1155
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:35,040
Speaker 1: NFL sort of throw with this guy consistently seems a

1156
00:59:35,040 --> 00:59:37,440
Speaker 1: little crazy to me. I just don't I think some

1157
00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:41,240
Speaker 1: coaches are better at some things than others. Right, no

1158
00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:46,240
Speaker 1: one is better at calling screens than Andy Reid. No

1159
00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:49,480
Speaker 1: one is better at scheming the pass game historically than

1160
00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:52,360
Speaker 1: like than Andy. Sean Payton's pretty damn good at it.

1161
00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 1: You go, Kyle Shanahan, damn good at scheming the run,

1162
00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:58,120
Speaker 1: and I would say passing game. I wouldn't put him

1163
00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:01,439
Speaker 1: on the level of Sean Payton and of Andy Reid,

1164
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:05,120
Speaker 1: though when his run games working, his pass game works flawlessly.

1165
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:09,120
Speaker 1: Greg Roman, to me, is like run game only. And

1166
01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:11,960
Speaker 1: then if like when Lamar was on or Kaepernick was on,

1167
01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:15,880
Speaker 1: they can pull some insane plays, but it's not like

1168
01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:20,040
Speaker 1: a consistent rhythm of the offense. And so my take

1169
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:22,240
Speaker 1: would be Roman just has a sceneling and he hit

1170
01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:25,320
Speaker 1: it years ago. Now, the question would be okay at

1171
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 1: the end of the year, because clearly you guys are

1172
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:31,240
Speaker 1: leaking oil right watch the Ravens over there. They just

1173
01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:35,040
Speaker 1: feel pretty lifeless. You guys make the playoffs as a

1174
01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:37,840
Speaker 1: wild card and you're lose in the first round. Fire

1175
01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:41,920
Speaker 1: Greg Roman, Well, what kind of offensive coordinator are you hiring? Like,

1176
01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:45,120
Speaker 1: are you gonna hire You're gonna transition like a Shanahan

1177
01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:47,840
Speaker 1: type offense? Are you gonna keep running the offense that

1178
01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:50,400
Speaker 1: you guys have been running for Lamar, are you gonna

1179
01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:53,040
Speaker 1: go screw it? Let's spread it out a little bit

1180
01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:56,360
Speaker 1: more like what Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers did for

1181
01:00:56,520 --> 01:01:00,920
Speaker 1: years in in Green Bay, or kind of run like

1182
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:04,360
Speaker 1: more of a Josh McDaniels New England Brady offense, where

1183
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:07,160
Speaker 1: you utilize the tight ends, you throw to the running

1184
01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:10,000
Speaker 1: backs a lot. You're not as dependent on the wide receivers,

1185
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:12,880
Speaker 1: but your quarterback can also run as well as the

1186
01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:15,680
Speaker 1: running game. I don't know. I don't think there's necessarily

1187
01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:17,920
Speaker 1: an easy answer. You also got to pay the quarterback

1188
01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:21,080
Speaker 1: a lot of money, so my guests would be roman

1189
01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:23,320
Speaker 1: just the way the sport works, will get fired at

1190
01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:25,240
Speaker 1: the end of the year, especially if you guys are

1191
01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:29,000
Speaker 1: one and done. But I don't know, man, I don't

1192
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:33,040
Speaker 1: think it's an easy fix. Love the podcast gets many

1193
01:01:33,080 --> 01:01:36,040
Speaker 1: of us through the day. I appreciate that as a

1194
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:38,360
Speaker 1: Bears fan, I can finally tip my hat to Justin

1195
01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:41,800
Speaker 1: Fields as many did. I saw the talent, he showed

1196
01:01:41,840 --> 01:01:45,280
Speaker 1: the flashes, but I can finally say with confidence that

1197
01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:48,280
Speaker 1: we have the quarterback of the future. I feel good

1198
01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:50,640
Speaker 1: that you're This is very cathartic. This feels good as

1199
01:01:50,680 --> 01:01:53,160
Speaker 1: if you know, I know where you're coming from. With

1200
01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:55,560
Speaker 1: that being said, we currently have the third pick in

1201
01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:59,840
Speaker 1: the draft. If you were the Bears, GM, would you

1202
01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:03,320
Speaker 1: draft where we are moved down for picks? Thanks? Again.

1203
01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:05,840
Speaker 1: I was thinking about this the other day, maybe it

1204
01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:07,720
Speaker 1: was this morning because I heard his name come up.

1205
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:11,880
Speaker 1: I think one regret they have and I don't. I

1206
01:02:12,080 --> 01:02:15,200
Speaker 1: never blame GMS or people in general for being aggressive.

1207
01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:18,840
Speaker 1: I think if you lean aggressive, it's always the right

1208
01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:22,080
Speaker 1: thing to do. Now, sometimes that bites you in the ass,

1209
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:25,240
Speaker 1: right being aggressive right now in the stock market, you know,

1210
01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:27,400
Speaker 1: probably not the smartest thing to do. I made a

1211
01:02:27,440 --> 01:02:30,240
Speaker 1: stock purchase probably a week ago that I probably should

1212
01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:33,240
Speaker 1: have waited a week, who knows, maybe six months because

1213
01:02:33,280 --> 01:02:36,760
Speaker 1: it's dripping like a rock. But the logic was sound

1214
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:39,640
Speaker 1: behind it, Like I understood the logic of trading a

1215
01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:43,120
Speaker 1: second round pick for Chase Claypool. But when it turned

1216
01:02:43,160 --> 01:02:46,640
Speaker 1: out to be your second round pick, I kind of

1217
01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:49,680
Speaker 1: shook my head because that pick's going to turn out

1218
01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:51,520
Speaker 1: to be really good and now the Steelers have it.

1219
01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:54,840
Speaker 1: So part of sucking, which in a weird way, like

1220
01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:57,760
Speaker 1: I watch you guys, your record sucks, but you've been

1221
01:02:57,920 --> 01:03:01,120
Speaker 1: very competitive this year, but you're gonna, like you said,

1222
01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:04,080
Speaker 1: I mean, in the top five, you'll potentially number two

1223
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:07,160
Speaker 1: overall in every round, and not having that pick, it's

1224
01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:08,520
Speaker 1: kind of a kick in the ass. Now you do

1225
01:03:08,640 --> 01:03:11,320
Speaker 1: have the Ravens pick because of the Roquan Smith trade,

1226
01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:14,120
Speaker 1: but wouldn't have been nice to have both picks. And

1227
01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:16,760
Speaker 1: clearly Chase Claypool is not really hitting the ground running

1228
01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:18,880
Speaker 1: with you like I think you would have liked to

1229
01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:21,080
Speaker 1: have a chance to pick a player with that pick.

1230
01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:24,320
Speaker 1: So ultimately, where I'm getting at, Justin Fields is going

1231
01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:26,480
Speaker 1: to be your quarterback next year. I would trade down.

1232
01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:29,200
Speaker 1: I would try to do like a Miami Dolphins type

1233
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:31,120
Speaker 1: move where they went from six to twelve and they

1234
01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:33,840
Speaker 1: accumulated some first round picks from the Niners. If you're

1235
01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:37,080
Speaker 1: able to move back four or five spots, accumulate a

1236
01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:39,800
Speaker 1: one and maybe an extra two, that would be the move.

1237
01:03:40,840 --> 01:03:43,880
Speaker 1: Anytime that you have the quarterback, to me, you always

1238
01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:47,800
Speaker 1: want to accumulate more picks because you just need more assets.

1239
01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:51,640
Speaker 1: And obviously, you guys, I wouldn't say are devoid of talent,

1240
01:03:51,800 --> 01:03:56,440
Speaker 1: but got a ways to go, got a ways to go.

1241
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:58,960
Speaker 1: I mean, any team that I mean your receiver depending

1242
01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 1: on Dante Pettis to kill Harry, which I like to

1243
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:04,720
Speaker 1: kill Harry coming out of Arizona State might have taken

1244
01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:08,280
Speaker 1: the eel on that one question. Do you think the

1245
01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:11,360
Speaker 1: requirements for being a Hall of Fame running back will change?

1246
01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:15,920
Speaker 1: Seeing how injury and short shelf life are and are

1247
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:19,760
Speaker 1: going to heavily impact the position. I would say, beside

1248
01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:22,360
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, what running back do we have in the

1249
01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:25,160
Speaker 1: league that is headed toward being a Hall of Famer.

1250
01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:29,360
Speaker 1: But you could also say the way sports change, Like

1251
01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:34,040
Speaker 1: Justin Verlander right, just signs eighty five million dollars for

1252
01:04:34,080 --> 01:04:36,560
Speaker 1: the Mets and he's forty years old. Max Schers are

1253
01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:38,320
Speaker 1: the same thing, like thirty nine last year, signed for

1254
01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:39,680
Speaker 1: a bunch of money. Both those guys are gonna go

1255
01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:42,320
Speaker 1: to Hall of Fame and they've had Hall of Fame careers. Right.

1256
01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:46,760
Speaker 1: World Series champions guys are studs. They're just blue chippers.

1257
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:51,120
Speaker 1: But like if you got Justin Verlander and Max Schers

1258
01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:53,760
Speaker 1: are right now at twenty three years old, they wouldn't

1259
01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:57,120
Speaker 1: be throwing complete games. Right. Most people are not bringing

1260
01:04:57,160 --> 01:04:59,560
Speaker 1: Madison Bumgardener out of the bullpen in the playoffs, Like

1261
01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:02,040
Speaker 1: the game is kind of changed because of the way

1262
01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:07,040
Speaker 1: the front office operates. In baseball, it's very numbers driven

1263
01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:10,880
Speaker 1: and pitch count driven. Well, most pitchers that are in

1264
01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:13,320
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame, we're kind of gut feel like,

1265
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:16,480
Speaker 1: give him another inning, let him go face for the

1266
01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:19,240
Speaker 1: fourth time around the order, like you just kind of

1267
01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:23,600
Speaker 1: rode your horses. Well, historically, in football, I mean, running

1268
01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:25,800
Speaker 1: backs when I was a kid, were the most famous players.

1269
01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:31,360
Speaker 1: Jim Brown, Walter Payton, Emmett Smith, Barry Sanders. Right, those

1270
01:05:31,440 --> 01:05:35,080
Speaker 1: guys were the Thurman Thomas that the best players on

1271
01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:39,680
Speaker 1: the best teams were running backs. And that's not the

1272
01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:43,240
Speaker 1: case anymore. What I think is gonna happen, how many

1273
01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:45,800
Speaker 1: wide receivers are gonna make the Hall of Fame. Think

1274
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:48,880
Speaker 1: about in like fifteen twenty years, some of the wide

1275
01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:53,240
Speaker 1: receivers numbers and for every justin Jefferson, like DeVante Adams

1276
01:05:53,480 --> 01:05:55,480
Speaker 1: and Tyree Hill, there are gonna be some guys like

1277
01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:57,520
Speaker 1: we just have a lot of stats and you go,

1278
01:05:57,800 --> 01:06:00,960
Speaker 1: you know, it's got a Hall of Fame player like

1279
01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:04,040
Speaker 1: Jalen Waddle, if he just stays healthy, his stats at

1280
01:06:04,040 --> 01:06:06,920
Speaker 1: the end of like a decade are gonna be astronomical,

1281
01:06:08,680 --> 01:06:10,560
Speaker 1: But like, is he one of the best receivers of

1282
01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:12,280
Speaker 1: all time or is he just playing in an era?

1283
01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:14,640
Speaker 1: You know in the NBA, they're gonna be a lot

1284
01:06:14,640 --> 01:06:16,600
Speaker 1: of guys to score twenty five points, But how many

1285
01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:21,480
Speaker 1: of them are like all time great players? Question for

1286
01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:23,680
Speaker 1: the mailbag. You can't really think the forty nine ers

1287
01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:26,240
Speaker 1: have a chance in the playoffs right The media is

1288
01:06:26,280 --> 01:06:29,480
Speaker 1: consumed with Brock Purty and the defense, but they only

1289
01:06:29,560 --> 01:06:32,400
Speaker 1: have beaten one team that would be considered average, and

1290
01:06:32,560 --> 01:06:36,000
Speaker 1: that's the Dolphins. They have had one of the easiest

1291
01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:39,600
Speaker 1: schedules in the league and got absolutely dummied by the Chiefs.

1292
01:06:40,200 --> 01:06:42,320
Speaker 1: If you take a step back, what do you see

1293
01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:49,280
Speaker 1: from the Niners. Well, they they destroyed the Dolphins and

1294
01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:54,360
Speaker 1: they who's the team They kicked the Seattle's ass and

1295
01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:59,080
Speaker 1: this week they play Washington. The Niners one playoff games

1296
01:06:59,160 --> 01:07:01,960
Speaker 1: last year would me Garoppolo. They did not score an

1297
01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:05,560
Speaker 1: offensive touchdown and beat Aaron Rodgers in an MVP season.

1298
01:07:06,320 --> 01:07:08,600
Speaker 1: The way this team, this team is not They're not

1299
01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:10,439
Speaker 1: going to match up well against the Chiefs and the Bills,

1300
01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:12,240
Speaker 1: but they don't have to play the Chiefs. In the Bills,

1301
01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:14,760
Speaker 1: they have to play Kirk Cousins. They have to play

1302
01:07:14,880 --> 01:07:18,480
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones as of today, Like we'll see on this

1303
01:07:18,560 --> 01:07:21,720
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts in or injury. That's gonna be something to monitor.

1304
01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:26,160
Speaker 1: But the NFC quarterbacks like have you've seen Dak Prescott lately? Hell,

1305
01:07:26,200 --> 01:07:28,560
Speaker 1: they don't have to play like Trevor Lawrence, Joe Burrow.

1306
01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:31,040
Speaker 1: They're not playing any of these guys. The NFC quarterbacks

1307
01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:34,000
Speaker 1: are not very good. And if Jalen Hurts is now compromised,

1308
01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:36,120
Speaker 1: who might have been the MVP of the league. Like

1309
01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:38,800
Speaker 1: it's wide freaking open. Here's what I know about the

1310
01:07:38,800 --> 01:07:41,160
Speaker 1: forty nine ers beside the Eagles. They have a better

1311
01:07:41,240 --> 01:07:44,240
Speaker 1: roster than every other team in the NFC playoffs. So yeah,

1312
01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:46,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I think they can win some games, just

1313
01:07:46,360 --> 01:07:48,760
Speaker 1: like they did last year. They won a game at

1314
01:07:48,840 --> 01:07:51,160
Speaker 1: Green Bay in the freezing cold against the MVP of

1315
01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:54,360
Speaker 1: the league when their offense did not score. This team

1316
01:07:54,480 --> 01:07:56,960
Speaker 1: is not built and doesn't play like most teams in

1317
01:07:56,960 --> 01:08:00,920
Speaker 1: the league. Like for Minnesota to win, they got score points.

1318
01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:04,800
Speaker 1: They got Justine Jefferson, THELN cooks like they're built to

1319
01:08:04,880 --> 01:08:06,840
Speaker 1: do that. From the Niners don't win, it's like score

1320
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:10,640
Speaker 1: a couple of touchdowns, score defensive touchdown, you score seven

1321
01:08:10,640 --> 01:08:13,880
Speaker 1: total points in the final score might be twenty to seven.

1322
01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:16,720
Speaker 1: That's how they want to play and that's how they've

1323
01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:20,160
Speaker 1: succeeded from playing. Now. Could Brock Purty come back to

1324
01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:22,360
Speaker 1: Earth at any moment, of course, but they're not asking

1325
01:08:22,439 --> 01:08:24,160
Speaker 1: him to do that much. But the one thing Brock

1326
01:08:24,280 --> 01:08:27,479
Speaker 1: has done, he's kind of made some plays like he's

1327
01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:30,759
Speaker 1: kind of a sneaky playmaker for you know, the seventh

1328
01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:33,400
Speaker 1: round pick. I've been blown away by how my expectations

1329
01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:35,760
Speaker 1: are really low. I thought that there would be a

1330
01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:38,080
Speaker 1: one and done team the moment Jimmy got hurt, and

1331
01:08:38,120 --> 01:08:40,519
Speaker 1: then I watched him hot take. He's kind of been

1332
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:45,160
Speaker 1: better than Jimmy and Jimmy's average. So they've been winning

1333
01:08:45,920 --> 01:08:48,519
Speaker 1: games over the last two years with average quarterback play.

1334
01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:51,879
Speaker 1: They are not the Bills. They're not dependent on the quarterback.

1335
01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:54,840
Speaker 1: They're depending on their defense and their skill guys to

1336
01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:56,840
Speaker 1: dominate with the ball in their hands. And guess what

1337
01:08:57,320 --> 01:09:00,680
Speaker 1: those guys dominate with the ball in their hands. What's up? John?

1338
01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:04,519
Speaker 1: After watching numerous debates this weekend in the NFL, what

1339
01:09:04,720 --> 01:09:08,480
Speaker 1: was the worst loss the Colts? The Pats or the Cowboys.

1340
01:09:09,920 --> 01:09:12,720
Speaker 1: I think Cowboys was a really bad loss, but I

1341
01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:16,360
Speaker 1: think that's easily third. So I think we're debating the

1342
01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:19,720
Speaker 1: worst final play in the history of the league or

1343
01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:23,560
Speaker 1: the biggest comeback in the history of the league. And

1344
01:09:23,760 --> 01:09:29,720
Speaker 1: I've come to the conclusion that when something happens just

1345
01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:33,559
Speaker 1: out of nowhere, right, like a walk off home run,

1346
01:09:34,120 --> 01:09:36,679
Speaker 1: a walk off shot, like it's just a one play

1347
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:40,800
Speaker 1: knocks you out think about life, like when something bad

1348
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:42,920
Speaker 1: is happening, but it happens for a while, if your

1349
01:09:42,960 --> 01:09:46,000
Speaker 1: business is losing money for several years, it's one thing

1350
01:09:46,120 --> 01:09:51,120
Speaker 1: that if just the warehouse burns down, right, it's one thing.

1351
01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:54,920
Speaker 1: That play with the Patriots happened so fast and was

1352
01:09:55,000 --> 01:09:59,000
Speaker 1: so devastating you don't even have time. It's just it's

1353
01:09:59,040 --> 01:10:01,880
Speaker 1: an all time holy shit sports moment. Your jaw hits

1354
01:10:01,920 --> 01:10:06,800
Speaker 1: the floor. In the Colts game, Minnesota was coming back

1355
01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:09,719
Speaker 1: and it was like, you know, Jeff Saturday, Matt Ryan's

1356
01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:13,400
Speaker 1: blown leaves before you kind of started going this might happen.

1357
01:10:14,680 --> 01:10:17,800
Speaker 1: I think by foot, not by four, because thirty three points,

1358
01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:20,519
Speaker 1: thirty three points, and I was thinking about it today.

1359
01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:24,200
Speaker 1: You come out of half, they need five touchdowns to

1360
01:10:24,240 --> 01:10:28,960
Speaker 1: beat you. It should be basically statistically impossible if every

1361
01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:31,400
Speaker 1: single time you're on offense, you take the play down

1362
01:10:31,479 --> 01:10:33,840
Speaker 1: to like two to one seconds, so you're snapping at

1363
01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:36,479
Speaker 1: the last second with the play clock. You tell your

1364
01:10:36,520 --> 01:10:39,160
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, we just need on every drive to try

1365
01:10:39,200 --> 01:10:42,400
Speaker 1: to get one first down to just basically take you know,

1366
01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:45,080
Speaker 1: two and a half three minutes off. Time is not

1367
01:10:45,120 --> 01:10:47,320
Speaker 1: going to be on their side. And then defensively, where

1368
01:10:47,400 --> 01:10:50,600
Speaker 1: you go, We're gonna play like we would at the

1369
01:10:50,680 --> 01:10:52,920
Speaker 1: end of the game when we're up ten and we

1370
01:10:53,040 --> 01:10:55,479
Speaker 1: just can't give you two touchdowns, so we're just gonna

1371
01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:58,479
Speaker 1: play off. Let you dink and dunk down the field

1372
01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:01,160
Speaker 1: and tackle you in space, and you'll have to have

1373
01:11:01,360 --> 01:11:03,720
Speaker 1: four or five drives that are gonna take seven eight

1374
01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:08,719
Speaker 1: plays minimum every drive, probably ten plays to score touchdowns.

1375
01:11:08,840 --> 01:11:16,560
Speaker 1: You're not gonna throw deep time. It's just statistically numerically impossible.

1376
01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:21,640
Speaker 1: So from a dumb moronic standpoint, it really is an

1377
01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:24,439
Speaker 1: all time low for Saturday in the Colts. But the

1378
01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:27,760
Speaker 1: Patriot play is the dumbest play in the history the league.

1379
01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:30,000
Speaker 1: I think when you factor in they were definitely not

1380
01:11:30,080 --> 01:11:32,439
Speaker 1: supposed to rugby play. It on top of it being

1381
01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:36,600
Speaker 1: a run play. On top of it the Jacoby is

1382
01:11:36,680 --> 01:11:39,280
Speaker 1: throwing it to Mac Jones. When you think about it,

1383
01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:41,920
Speaker 1: he's in the middle of the field. He's one of

1384
01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:45,320
Speaker 1: the worst athletes on the field. Even if he gets

1385
01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:50,240
Speaker 1: the ball. Who where's he throwing the ball too? Right,

1386
01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:54,280
Speaker 1: because five of the players on the field are offensive linemen,

1387
01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:57,880
Speaker 1: so your skill guys are somewhat limited, and Mac is

1388
01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:00,559
Speaker 1: one of them. Right in theory, just because he's one

1389
01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:02,679
Speaker 1: of the only non linemen on the field for the Patriots,

1390
01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:05,559
Speaker 1: what was going to happen? And I just get back

1391
01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:08,439
Speaker 1: to I think it's one of the worst brain farts

1392
01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:10,120
Speaker 1: in the history of the sport. That led to the

1393
01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:13,000
Speaker 1: craziest end thing we've ever seen. And the visual of

1394
01:12:13,120 --> 01:12:15,960
Speaker 1: Chandler Jones running over Mac Jones is something you can't forget.

1395
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:19,559
Speaker 1: I do not understand why Mac Jones is always screaming

1396
01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:21,960
Speaker 1: to people. He kind of acts like he's Tom Brady.

1397
01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:26,120
Speaker 1: He's always yelling at other guys, like he's always pissed off,

1398
01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:30,760
Speaker 1: like he's Aaron Rodgers or Drew Brees Roethlisberger. It's like

1399
01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:33,320
Speaker 1: Mac bro you went to a Pro Bowl because seven

1400
01:12:33,400 --> 01:12:35,680
Speaker 1: guys tapped out and we get it. You did the

1401
01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:39,280
Speaker 1: gritty and you think you're sweet, Like, yeah, I guess

1402
01:12:39,320 --> 01:12:41,680
Speaker 1: I feel bad that Joe Judge and Matt Patricia are

1403
01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:45,320
Speaker 1: coaching you, but shit, Bill Walsh could be coaching you.

1404
01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:47,280
Speaker 1: I don't think you're throwing for too many more touchdowns

1405
01:12:47,320 --> 01:12:49,760
Speaker 1: by man, Let's calm down a little bit. I'm not

1406
01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:53,600
Speaker 1: blaming him for not making the tackle though. When you

1407
01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:56,679
Speaker 1: have a guy much bigger than you and the goal

1408
01:12:56,880 --> 01:12:59,479
Speaker 1: is just to get the guy to the ground, like

1409
01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:02,320
Speaker 1: I would go under the knee, I would go shin

1410
01:13:02,479 --> 01:13:05,040
Speaker 1: to shoe and just kind of grab at the ankles

1411
01:13:05,120 --> 01:13:06,960
Speaker 1: and hold on for dear life. And even if the

1412
01:13:07,000 --> 01:13:09,960
Speaker 1: guy's big and strong and fast like Chandler Jones is,

1413
01:13:10,360 --> 01:13:13,000
Speaker 1: if you just hold on and Mac Jones was away

1414
01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:15,200
Speaker 1: two hundred and ten pounds should be able to hold

1415
01:13:15,240 --> 01:13:18,320
Speaker 1: on to at least make it so another patriot can

1416
01:13:18,360 --> 01:13:20,200
Speaker 1: get there to help kind of jump on the guy's back.

1417
01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:23,559
Speaker 1: But he went at like the waist where Chandler Jones

1418
01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:26,360
Speaker 1: was able to use all the strength and momentum to

1419
01:13:26,640 --> 01:13:30,120
Speaker 1: shove Mac into the turf. It's actually grass. Mark Davis

1420
01:13:30,200 --> 01:13:33,040
Speaker 1: loves grass and just have one of the all time

1421
01:13:33,080 --> 01:13:34,960
Speaker 1: still shots that I don't think you ever recover from.

1422
01:13:35,080 --> 01:13:39,080
Speaker 1: So I think a slow bleed is never as bad

1423
01:13:39,760 --> 01:13:44,040
Speaker 1: as out of the blue situation in serious situations in

1424
01:13:44,120 --> 01:13:48,240
Speaker 1: life and in just football sports situations. So I would

1425
01:13:48,320 --> 01:13:50,719
Speaker 1: say the Patriots is worse than the Colts, as crazy

1426
01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:53,800
Speaker 1: as that sounds. Appreciate everyone listening. God Speak, talk to

1427
01:13:53,800 --> 01:14:16,920
Speaker 1: you soon. The volume
