And you mentioned before we started, Uh, 40 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: you you know, you're known to have a few drinks 41 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: every now and then, you know, I, Uh, that's how 42 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: I on wine and there was a bomb cyclone, which 43 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: is a weather development that happened because we broke the environment. 44 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: That's all. I feel like my life is a bomb cyclone. 45 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 1: But um, yes, And because of that, instead of your 46 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: typical flight path from here directly to the Philadelphia area, 47 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: you had to go to d C and then train up. Yeah, 48 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: and then you had to pass the time, had to 49 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 1: pass the time. So I was on the flight. It 50 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: was a late flight. Everybody was angry and annoyed, and 51 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: so I passed the time. But you know, with the 52 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: couple of beers. And I listened to the podcast, and 53 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: I wrote down some notes about the podcast, and I 54 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 1: was going to send them to you guys, and and 55 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: then I looked at it the next morning and was like, 56 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 1: you know, this really doesn't need to be that. It 57 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 1: really doesn't. You know. It's funny. It's like the equivalent 58 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: of and as I've gotten older and do less in 59 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: my life in general, in terms of a social scene, 60 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: this doesn't happen as much. But like drunk text that 61 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 1: you look at your phone the next morning was like, 62 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: why did I send that so and so usually after 63 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: company party. Yeah, like that no longer is really something 64 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: I worry about. But that's essentially what you had cooking. 65 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: Maybe and one day we'd like this, I want. I 66 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: was very excited about Y two k Um. There were 67 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: there were a lot of stories.

You talked that is my worst nightmare ever? 70 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: Like I have nightmares about it. I was a figure skater. 71 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: I would never ever in my life skate on a lake. 72 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: And you talking about your friend falling through one really resonated. 73 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: That one hit What was her name, Mary Michelle? Michelle 74 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: didn't die anyway, So yeah, next time you get drunk, 75 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:15,839 Speaker 1: just and then regret it in the morning.

But I guess they retrofitted it now 106 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 1: to have the walk between the locker room and the field. 107 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: They like to have like a fan area where you 108 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 1: get to stare at these there's like it's a there's 109 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: zoo animals.

Fans like 120 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: up when the fans like, in my defense, I'm drunk 121 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: because I got a seventy up charged to have this 122 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: access in the tunnel way. I've been drinking since eight 123 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: thirty am with an idea that we'd win this game. Anyway. 124 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: Let's drap. Let's do some news, starting with yes, John Gruden, 125 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: who on Tuesday was announced as the new head coach 126 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: of the Oakland Raiders soon to be Las Vegas Raiders. 127 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: Rap Sheet reported on Friday, of course, um that the 128 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: Raiders were going to make this official announcement and make 129 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: we're in the coach and guess what. It's a ten year, 130 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: one hundred million dollar deal for the coach has been 131 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: out of the game for a decade. All his coordinators 132 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: will get four year, four year deals. Greg uh, this 133 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: is one of the worst kept secrets in the NFL 134 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: that this was going to happen. But I think it's 135 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: still hard to wrap your head around the leverage that 136 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: Gruden had and the deal that he got, because it's 137 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: so easily can go very wrong. It can, and people 138 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: are so focused on the like ten year deal, what 139 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: a commitment like that. The years don't matter. It's the money. 140 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: He's eating a hundred million dollars, whether it last three 141 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: years or whether it lasts all ten or seven. I mean, 142 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: if he's a disaster and they don't win any games. 143 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: He's not gonna be their coach for ten years. The 144 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: I'm very fascinated to see how he presents himself if 145 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: he's different when it was John Gruden the first time around, 146 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: it was all about John Gruden. I mean there was 147 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: no more me first look at me head coach than 148 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: John Gruden. And he would really build his players up 149 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: in public, and he would bury them and cut them 150 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,319 Speaker 1: very coldly, uh in private, and I think he rubbed 151 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: a lot of players the wrong way. They didn't really 152 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: do a great job in his final six years in Tampa. 153 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: So to me, there's a lot of questions. I do 154 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: like the fact that we're hearing Reggie mackenzie will stay 155 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 1: on as general manager. That's not officially confirmed, but I 156 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: think that gives the Raiders a chance for a little 157 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 1: more stability, bringing a extremely exciting higher at offensive coordinator 158 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,079 Speaker 1: and Greg Olsen to pair with defensive coordinator Paul Gunther. 159 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: I mean, look, I think the thing if you want 160 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 1: so anti. Greg also not not the Canther's tight end. 161 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: He was the race he's not. He has been a 162 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: coordinator in the league many times, including under John. I 163 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: just don't find it that interesting to a hire personally. 164 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,719 Speaker 1: But Donald Penn their left tackle. He basically already is 165 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 1: called Gruden compared to Steve Kerr going to the Warriors 166 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: well before, like he played for him in the past. Donald. 167 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: I love Donald Penn, and I think he's like really 168 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: good and really smart. But I saw those comments which 169 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: n OR Network kind of as like, hey, don't cut me, 170 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: you know, because he's very much started up in the 171 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: air of like, Okay, is Donald Penn gonna be back, 172 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 1: because you would think John Gruden is gonna make a 173 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 1: lot of changes to your point or what you brought 174 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 1: up about him rubbing players the wrong way. There has 175 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: been some talk speculation that is Derek Carr John Gruden. 176 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: Is that a good marriage. His Car built emotionally, I 177 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: mean he wants pund time blocked us Derek Carr, so 178 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: we got under his skill. Although he's a great quarterback 179 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: in the future VP in this league, if Gruden pushes 180 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,199 Speaker 1: the wrong buttons with Car, that becomes a very awkward 181 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: situation because Car is still viewed as the face of 182 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: that franchise and Gruden now actually Gruden's the face of 183 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 1: the franchise because he's got tew. I just I can't 184 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 1: wait to see how this all plays out. Basically, it's 185 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: been so long since he was coaching. I mean, he's 186 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: been in the booth for so long, and I feel 187 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: like the game has kind of changed since the last 188 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: time he was in this position, So I don't know 189 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: how it's going to go down. That actually, I think 190 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 1: can be a benefit because when you talk to coaches 191 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: who are out for a year, so then they talk 192 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: about watching film from all over the league, which they 193 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: don't do when they're in their little burrows with their 194 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: own team. Gruden has seen the league change with a 195 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: complete firsthand look. He's talking to all these coaches on 196 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: a weekly basis. That's you hope that Gruden would take 197 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: something from that and change a little bit as a coach. 198 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,839 Speaker 1: I look at someone like Pat Strmer that got fired 199 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: in Cleveland and instead of going and just clinging to 200 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: what he knew, he went to learn under Chip Kelly, 201 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: so a completely different type of offense and evolves like 202 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: his Gruden going to evolve or as you say, Greg, 203 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: is it gonna be where his press conference comes on 204 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: after this show today and NFL neverka is treating it 205 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: like the Second Coming of Jesus. So is is it 206 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: all about Gruden or is there going to be substance 207 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 1: going to be Well, he's entertaining, he is. He makes 208 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: the league more fun. I guess it's perfect for Vegas. 209 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: I think I think it's great. And you asked that. 210 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: You mentioned like, how did he get that leverage? First 211 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: of all other coaches around the league, like Mike Tomlin 212 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: or they gotta be they gotta be give us. But 213 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: he had the leverage because Mark Davis, the Raiders owner, 214 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: was reportedly wooing John Gruden and meeting at you know, 215 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: Confidential Hooters across America or wherever. I don't know wherever 216 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: they met up. I think that's where they meet up 217 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: for the last six years, trying to bring John Gruden 218 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: back to the fold, and and Gruden just kept saying no, no, no, 219 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: And that's how you get that price. That's my fantasy 220 00:11:55,120 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: football team name next year, Confidential Hooter. The just a 221 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: bit of assessler here. I think this is gonna work 222 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: at least in it. Yeah, I think the Raiders are 223 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 1: gonna be good, and I think he's gonna reduce the franchise, 224 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: but I mean, they better if they don't hit the 225 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: ground running a lot of pressure to win. Now there 226 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,079 Speaker 1: four and eight in November, and they have nine more 227 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 1: years on the deal, and it's like, what are you 228 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: gonna do? And what if he clashes with ownership and 229 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: and that is so such a huge financial risk, And yeah, 230 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: you can get fire him at any time and start over. 231 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: He has a lot. He has a twenty year relationship 232 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: with Mark Davis, So I think that's one of the 233 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: attractions is that he's got someone he gets along with. 234 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: And I'm not worried about the Derrek carthing. Gruden goes 235 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: in there knowing that Car is the most important guy 236 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: in their relationship, is the most important part of that franchise. 237 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: There's no there's no thought of changing quarterback. Can also 238 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: loves Derek Carr. I mean on record, he's glowed over 239 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: from unlike very just feels very boom or busty to me. 240 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: People always said that, like that's what he was like 241 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: in the booth and and I was thinking, they don't 242 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: remember what he was like as a coach. He would 243 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 1: puff up his players as the greatest ever, and then 244 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 1: he would cut them the next day, booming on Matt 245 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: Naggy Naggi, Nag I go Naggie. I got like pulled 246 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: into one of those things where it's like an insufferable 247 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: conversation about the pronunciation of the name and the region 248 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: of the world, and it was somehow turned into some 249 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 1: type of culture war, and I'm like, Bros, I don't 250 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: want to be involved with it. This was on fire 251 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 1: a week ago and then caught fire again yesterday. I've 252 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: seen it. In my mean, enjoy your conversation, fellows. I 253 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: hope it goes. I hope you come to Wiggy is 254 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: the other one that's floating out there. Nag I think, 255 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: I think. I don't know. Naggy sounds kind of weird. 256 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: I'm going nag Chuck Naggy the former Indians. As the 257 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: team announced Monday that being the Chicago Bears, that Chief's 258 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator Matt Naggy is the new head coach of 259 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: the Bears. Naggi interviewed, or Niggy, let's at least make 260 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: an in house decision. Yeah, what's the in house if 261 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 1: you're referring to Charles Nay the former Indians picture, Yeah, definitely, 262 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: and Charles, well, let's aware of Let's go Nagy. Then 263 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: we'll reassess we need to be and it's officially Kamara, 264 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: which I think everyone needs to get on on board 265 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: here right now around the NFL. You can vote, we'll 266 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: have the result at the end of the time. To 267 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: the Packers, Camara, that one's official. Now that's Tomato. Tomatto, 268 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: my god. But what Naggy, I'm going Let's move forward, 269 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: but we need to be in lockstep. Okay. Anyway, Naggy 270 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: interviewed with Ryan Pace on Sunday right after the Chiefs 271 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: blew it against the Tytoons. He also interviewed with the 272 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: Cults about their gig rap sheet reported. But he takes 273 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: the Bear's job. And this is a Bears team that 274 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: finished in the last the NFC North and every year 275 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: John Fox was there and uh, Colleen, like we've been 276 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: talking about, it's not a surprise. And I think the 277 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: Rams had the template with their young quarterback. Get an 278 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: offensive minded head coach in there who could develop the 279 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: QB and hope that saves the franchise or changes fortunes. 280 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: And I think that's what the Bears are going for 281 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: here with Naggy. Yeah. I was reading about Naggy last 282 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: night and then I woke up on top of my 283 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: computer this morning, So I think that I think that's 284 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: really like sunk in. But one of the things that 285 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 1: is interesting is he was hired as an Eagles intern 286 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: in two thousand eight under not long ago, two thousand 287 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 1: eight like that, and now he's a head coach, so 288 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 1: not even ten years later. But I think it is 289 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: a good fit with Trabinsky and and as you mentioned, 290 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: with kind of the trend of bringing in younger, younger 291 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: head coaches because maybe they can relate better to the players. Um. 292 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: But I think that Naggy is going to make good 293 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 1: use of Rabinsky's mobility, and I think he's since he's 294 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: learned under Andy Reid and the West Coast offense. We're 295 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: going to see him just kind of work with Trabinsky 296 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: and they're gonna be throwing the ball a lot. I 297 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: think next season. I don't know if they did. I 298 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: think we've we've made it come to an agreement that 299 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: it's that it's Naggy. Yes, can we give him a nickname? 300 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: That might be the win? All right. I don't think 301 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: this happens in less Sean McVeigh roar to such a 302 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: successful season, because I think that's still a bit of 303 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: an old boys network where a thirty nine year old 304 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: coach who you're saying it was an Arena League quarterback 305 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: a decade ago. I mean, this guy has not been 306 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: in the circle for twenty years. I think it helps 307 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: when they watch someone like Sean McVeigh transform an offense. 308 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: You can't find an offense more dead than Chicago. So 309 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: the script is similar, And yes, it's a West Coast offense. 310 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: Is a really good fit for Trabinsky, and we'll see 311 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: where it goes. He's gonna he's gonna have to do 312 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: a lot quickly. People have been making that connection and 313 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: and that makes sense. But you have a lot of 314 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: other great things that happened in Los Angeles, including the 315 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: personnel that they brought in, having Todd Gurley there. You 316 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: certainly have a running game in Chicago. But it's a 317 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: lot to ask. Most importantly, is Bisky gotta be good enough? 318 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,719 Speaker 1: And Naggie, did they have the experience of developing Patrick 319 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: Mahomes a rookie quarterback this year? Seems to do a 320 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: good job based on how Maholmes looked in Week seventeen 321 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 1: and what I liked about Naggie and Andy Reid lately 322 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 1: that's that offense has changed a lot over the years. 323 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: It's really inventive and forward thinking, and it's it's a 324 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: lot of those West Coast principles. They use them, but 325 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: in a very creative way with some of the Chip 326 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: Kelly principles. Like it seems like a fun higher to me. 327 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 1: We should mention that Brad children Sex Vikings coach, he 328 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 1: was part of that change. He was their spread game coordinator. 329 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 1: He's retiring. They lose Naggie, they lose Children's, they could 330 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 1: lose Alex Smith potentially if they decided to move on 331 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 1: with Patrick Mahomes, it's gonna look a lot difference names. 332 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm a sucker, but when Andy Reid said that 333 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 1: Naggy was the best head coaching prospect that he's ever 334 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,640 Speaker 1: had work for him, and you know that's a group 335 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 1: that includes John Harbaugh, Ron Rivera, John McDermott, Peterson, Brad Childress. 336 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,479 Speaker 1: You know, I know it's just like a guy saying that. 337 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 1: But I think right when he said that, I was like, Oh, 338 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 1: that guy's getting hired this year because it Fred says 339 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 1: that it's not just it carries weight. I bet other 340 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: people around the league think that if he hits a 341 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 1: home run in Chicago. Every coach over the age of 342 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:17,399 Speaker 1: forty is done. They're out as head coach. Year old coaches. 343 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: And look at the way that he was able to 344 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,120 Speaker 1: turn around the Chief's offense when they were slumping so bad. 345 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: I'm interested to see who they end up hiring as 346 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: their defensive coordinator too. I mean, I wonder if they're 347 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,120 Speaker 1: going to go like the Rams did and bring in 348 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 1: a wise vet, like an older guy like Wade Philip. 349 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 1: They're trying to keep or stop it, trying to stick 350 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,679 Speaker 1: with Finn. They're trying to keep Vic Fangio, who has 351 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: their defensive coordinator, but he's going to be a popular 352 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: free agent coach who has his contract up, so he 353 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: might go out. Mark honest answer, No, no, No one listens. 354 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 1: None of the bosses upstairs listen. So you don't have 355 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: to worry about your job security. If someone offered you 356 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: Brad Childress's job as the Chiefs spread game coordinator and 357 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: nebviously you don't have any of the excellent knowledge, would 358 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 1: it be like downloaded into me like off a comp learning. Okay, 359 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 1: but you get the offer, you children's a salary, it's 360 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: comparable to whatever he was making. He's assistant head coach too, 361 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 1: So I think it's up there. Would you take the job? 362 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 1: I'm not even joking. Would you take the job? I 363 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 1: think I'd be a raging embarrassment. So how could not 364 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: be joking though, because it's a scenario that I mean, 365 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: I think Children's You couldn't tell if Children's was doing 366 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: anything great or not great on a week to week basis. 367 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: He didn't really have his fingerprints directly thing. So maybe 368 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: I would take it because even if I were an 369 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: absolute mess, you get yeah, you get one of those 370 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 1: four year contracts. Like you're saying that I get paid. 371 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: They're like this two months in, even two two hours in, 372 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 1: this is not competent. Into still have the I'm getting 373 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 1: paid for coordinators, that's what you Because all the rest 374 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: of us would say no immediately, we don't know any 375 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: we don't know nearly enough to possibly take that job. 376 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: And I'm looking at it as a four year coaches 377 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: guaranteed contract, guarantee money is a big deal. They'd fly 378 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: me in. There'll be like, oh, these are the new 379 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: wonder Kins, like he has got a little bit, he 380 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: understands how to deal with media. But then you know 381 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: within by the time the first nightfalls in Kansas City. 382 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: And I've had like in forty five minute conversation with 383 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 1: Andy Reid where realizes I had zero knowledge on how 384 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: that's it. You're like, so, what do you think about 385 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: the West goes off? And You're like, yeah, like short 386 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,880 Speaker 1: passing there, there is witchcraft involved. That's where the bill 387 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,400 Speaker 1: comes due. But you have bill comes my way because 388 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: I've signed a guaranteed coaching contract. Where the bill comes 389 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: due is you're gonna get that money and all that, 390 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: but you're gonna have to be in that humiliating scenario 391 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 1: with read and go through a whole season. If everyone 392 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: probably hate, no, I would be I'll just I'd be 393 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: fired and I cut my Twitter account and go live 394 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: very richly somewhere. Uh. Speaking of fired, Mike Schula doesn't 395 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: have a job anymore. The Panther's offensive coordinator was let 396 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: go on Tuesday, two days after the Panthers were knocked 397 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: out of the playoffs by the Saints. Also cut loose 398 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 1: quarterbacks coach Ken Dorsey Mark. This is a big move 399 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 1: by the Panthers. Shulo is there for five seasons, not 400 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 1: always a super popular guy in this room. I think 401 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: Rosenthal had an out for him for a few years there, 402 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: but he also was the offensive coordinator when Cam Newton 403 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: won a VP. But they haven't reached those heights since, 404 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 1: and now he's out of work. I wasn't expecting this 405 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: one to happen necessarily, but I guess you're saying, look 406 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: at we'd We went into this season saying that Cam 407 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,439 Speaker 1: Newton was going to run last these are he's our 408 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 1: number one asset and we're not going to continue to 409 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: use him that way. And it didn't happen, largely I 410 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 1: think because of a mid season trade and the way 411 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 1: that their offense evolved with Cam Newton. But they were 412 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 1: inconsistent in the run. Their passing game was largely a 413 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 1: disaster by the end of the year. A lot of 414 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: that's on personnel. Mike Shula during their Super Bowl year 415 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: was an Assistant Coach of the Year candidate. I mean 416 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 1: he was. He was fabulous that season. So these things 417 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: rise and fall. Maybe Rivera just said we want to reboot, 418 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 1: or we want to go after someone like John d. 419 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: Philippo who's sitting out there, and maybe you have a 420 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: name in mind when you make this move. Yeah, that's interesting. 421 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: I mean to to get rid of them both. I mean, 422 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: just like that. I've viously he wants to hit the 423 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: reset button. And we heard all last year how you 424 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: just talked about they wanted to rely last on Cam 425 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,439 Speaker 1: Newton's legs, but that didn't work. And then once they 426 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: went back to the way that Cam was when he's 427 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 1: more mobile, that's when everything started to click for them again. 428 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: But obviously they need to reset a lot of things 429 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 1: with that all. Was it Mike Shula's fault? And maybe 430 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 1: it was maybe with a different scheme that Christian McCaffrey 431 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: came in the league as a top ten pick and 432 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 1: couldn't run the football. I mean, is that as well? 433 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: Or Jonathan Stewart uh could not average more than three 434 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: and a half yards to carry this season? Is that 435 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: on Chula or was that a guy that was running 436 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: out of gas? I think it's ironic that he got 437 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 1: fired after one of their best offensive performances of the year. 438 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: It was really Ron Rivera's defense, which was more disappointing 439 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 1: late in the year and certainly on Sunday. But Mike 440 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 1: Schula is by far the most important figure in Cam 441 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,640 Speaker 1: Newton's career. He wasn't just the coordinator for five years. 442 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: He was Cam's quarterback coach for a couple of years 443 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: before getting elevated. So all of Cam Newton's NFL career 444 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 1: is with Mike Shula, and maybe I got on him 445 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: a little too much over the years. Ultimately, he did 446 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: build an offense kind of around Cam's strength, which are unique, 447 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 1: but it's been his whole career. Don't you want to 448 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:16,360 Speaker 1: see don't you want to try something else? I think 449 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 1: what we've seen isn't isn't enough, and maybe maybe it's 450 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 1: a little risky that it even gets worse. I don't know, 451 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: but we've seen him the entire career make a change. 452 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: On the subject of pronunciations, you said elevated, Yeah, I 453 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: noticed that and it just ran out of breath or 454 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: naggy elevated, go and be there. Uh. Yeah. The firings 455 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 1: came after Carolina finished the season nineteenth and total offense 456 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 1: and passing. Which also is that some of these these 457 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 1: firings sometimes get on my radar a little bit, is like, well, 458 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 1: you had Devin Funches, is the number one guy you 459 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 1: traded away Benjamin pretty bad offense last year though too 460 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: so two straight years. But sometimes when like is it 461 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: more personnel or is it scheme. Well, it's easier to 462 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: say the scheme and just say it's not. The GMS 463 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: falter that was not a sexy personnel grouping. At the 464 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: end of the year, Evan just says, your number one 465 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: wide receiver by far is a problem and we didn't talk. 466 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,239 Speaker 1: We should have talked about it, but we didn't. In 467 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 1: that game, one of the biggest players in that game 468 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,919 Speaker 1: was Kellen Clay is that his name? And Clay the 469 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 1: drop in the first counter. That could be a totally 470 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 1: different game if they go up seven nothing. The pay 471 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 1: camp played great, they had six first downs. He he 472 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: wasn't the prob. The offense really wasn't that. That was 473 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: the most fascinating performance by Cam Newton that I realized 474 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: He's had better performances, but to me, what he fought 475 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 1: through physically, Like I I gained a lot of respect 476 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 1: for him to It's weird that this comes after that performance. 477 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,679 Speaker 1: I mean, Keilan Clay makes that catch, they win that 478 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 1: game potentially, and job didn't get fired. It's just sports 479 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,159 Speaker 1: are weird like that. In other news hiring and firing news, 480 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 1: Brian glutakans as a job a new job I should 481 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: say that's a good pronunciation. They actually sent out the 482 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 1: NFL company wide email with his pronunciation, I think because 483 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: of the problematic nature that could arise if you pronounce 484 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: it incorrectly, quite problematic. The Packers are promoting their Director 485 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 1: of Player Personnel brand to function as Ted Thompson's successor 486 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 1: as general manager um the new deals for five years 487 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 1: and replaces of force Ted Thompson, who was in that 488 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: gig since two thousand five, drafted Aaron Rodgerson rode that 489 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 1: way for a long time. But a fresh start and 490 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: maybe a little bit of surprise that Gordakan's got the job. 491 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 1: Mark Well, I think last last Tuesday, we talked about 492 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 1: how everyone just assumed Elliott Wolfe because of the lineage, 493 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: was this rising fill in the blank, immediate GM for 494 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: green Bay and it's this guy you threw out his name. 495 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 1: Well it was it was Gil Brandt who said that 496 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: Gouda Kunst is the guy that they really I said 497 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 1: that incorrectly, like they really love him. So Elliot Wolfe 498 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: snow probably not going to be back with the Packers. 499 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: He's interviewing with the Browns and it sounds like he, 500 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: you know, with being passed over here. He's gonna wind 501 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: up somewhere else. D The most interesting thing I saw 502 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: about this higher was from Mike Florio, my old boss 503 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: at Pro Football Talk, who said, if if Russ, if 504 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 1: Russ Ball was hired as GM, the thought was Mike 505 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 1: McCarthy could lose his job. But McCarthy is very close, 506 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: right uh. And because of that now McCarthy would have 507 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,120 Speaker 1: will keep it. That It was almost like the Packers 508 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 1: are making a choice. Also about the head coach, how 509 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: aggressive will he be in free agency? He said he 510 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: will be like he came out, and that was like 511 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: the first quoted things like we're gonna change it up. 512 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 1: We're gonna spend some money like us. It's a carnival Parker, 513 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 1: come out, step right up. I mean, it's it's clearly 514 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 1: for all those phony shareholders who have the you know 515 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 1: what is it, we're not you know, we don't go 516 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,639 Speaker 1: out of our way to critique owner ship. Here. They 517 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: are owners. They are I own the I'm not critiquing 518 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: the fans who bought the piece of paper. I'm critiquing 519 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: the team for selling the pieces of paper for three 520 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: to say you're a you're an owner of the packers. 521 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,360 Speaker 1: If you get to frame it put in your living room. 522 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: And I think that is how it works a nice thing. 523 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: And they are technically they are part owners, but shares 524 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: they have. No they don't have to sit on the 525 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: board of the back. That'd be a problem. Uh. And finally, 526 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: let's take a trip to the throne of sleeve. I say, 527 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: we trust them. How great? It's so bad, it's so stupid, 528 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 1: I'll never forget. We were recording that, and Lakisha, who's 529 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 1: got a line in there? Our friend from downstairs, Uh, 530 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: Paramore didn't know what to say, and so we just said, say, 531 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 1: how great for our planet. It's the most insane line 532 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 1: and that whole thing anyway, Yes, and I was really 533 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 1: annoyed when the timing of Seth Wickersham's piece for ESPN 534 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: dot Com um a total, total deep dive into the 535 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: chaos behind the scenes around the New England Patriots right now, 536 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: all centering around a legacy grab, an ego, an ego 537 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: battle involving Tom Brady the quarterback, Robert Kraft the head 538 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: coach or excuse me, the owner, and Bill Belichick the 539 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: head coach. Uh and uh, so many juicy tidbits came 540 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 1: out of it. I think the big takeaway was in 541 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: the report anyway, was that they had reached a breaking 542 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: point and at the end of this UM this trio together, 543 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 1: it could come as soon as at the end of 544 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: the season. After the season. UM feels like a long shot, 545 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 1: but you but you could dream if you're a Patriots hater. 546 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: But this has become the major story greg around around Foxboro. 547 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 1: And you know it's a big story when the Patriots 548 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: are going out of their way to debunk it and 549 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 1: off and talk on the record about it. Uh. They 550 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: released a statement after the Wickersham piece went up, UH 551 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: shooting it down and calling some of the UH reporting 552 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: in it false and and outright kind of fabrications, specifically 553 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: the angle of it with Kraft basically telling Belichick to 554 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: get Garoppo out of there because ma and Bill bell 555 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 1: Check himself even talked about the situation everyone in New 556 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: England saying everything's fine, no one's going anywhere. Here's what 557 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: Bill had to say, Hey, Bill, there was a report 558 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: in the New York Daily News this weekend that you 559 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,959 Speaker 1: would have some interest in and coaching the Giants. Just 560 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 1: want to see if something truth to that. Right now, 561 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 1: my interest is trying to do it best by can 562 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: for our football team to get ready for Saturday night 563 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: against Tennessee. That's where my total focus is. Is your 564 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: intention definitely to be back with the Patriots next season? 565 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: Absolutely right? I know. Let me make a prediction, Greg, 566 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: you're a big nihilist at times, nihilist nilis nihilist, nihilist 567 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: all you didn't think anything of this is all who cares? 568 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 1: Not a big deal? Yes, No, I don't think that's true. 569 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 1: I think the part with Garoppolo was the only part 570 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 1: that really mattered, though all the rest was kind of was. 571 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 1: None of it was surprising. I thought the reaction to 572 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 1: the article and and some of the way yes, Ben 573 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 1: sold it was a lot more salacious than what was 574 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: inside the article. Wickersham was very careful not to really 575 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 1: go out of his way to report much of anything 576 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: as in fact, kind of like that New York Daily 577 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 1: News article, for instance, was a source they said close 578 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 1: to Belichick, who made it clear they had not spoken 579 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: to Belichick whatsoever. And we're just guessing. And then I 580 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: don't think anyone actually went back and read that New 581 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: York Daily News article suddenly gets passed on that he 582 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: actually has interests. The part about about Garoppolo is the story. 583 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: That's that's the only story to me, and it's a 584 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: big one. I have a hard time believing that Bill 585 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 1: Belichick would ever do anything totally against his wishes. That's 586 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 1: how he answered that question. He said, anything we do 587 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: is an organizational decision. He said that on Monday, and 588 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: that was including the Garoppolo Because to me, that would 589 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 1: be a reason for Bill Belichick to leave. If he 590 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 1: felt someone made him do something he didn't want to do, uh, 591 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,239 Speaker 1: in terms of personnel, and it wasn't his choice, that 592 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: would be a reason to quit. I think you would 593 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: expect me now to come at you hard with how 594 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: the article actually was a big accurate takedown of the organization. 595 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: But I agree with Greg because here's here's here's right. 596 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 1: You're working together for eighteen years. What you have shown 597 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 1: is more success than any franchise could ever dream of. 598 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 1: And along the way, these are egotist to goal, powerful, 599 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 1: prideful people, and they've clashed and there are multiple clashes. 600 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: The the issue here because none of this would matter 601 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: if they had found a way to keep Jimmy g 602 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: You would be looking at a fr that you look 603 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: at a franchise that's gonna You're wondering, now, will they 604 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: be this good for even longer than they had with Brady? 605 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: That's what you're staring at. They they come out in 606 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 1: a tough position because they lost a franchise quarterback. The 607 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 1: timing couldn't have been worse. We discussed the timing why 608 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,479 Speaker 1: they couldn't keep Jimmy g he had no interest in staying, 609 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: and Belichick, to me, comes out looking fine in this pieced. 610 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 1: The thing that I found interesting in it um and 611 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 1: I think that there's got to be some truth to 612 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: the article. Now I have no idea how much. Obviously 613 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:42,959 Speaker 1: the Eagles egos involved are incredible, But I thought the 614 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 1: thing that was really interesting was that a lot of 615 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 1: the players felt that they had to choose between Brady 616 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: and his guy Alex Guerrero or Belichick and the team trainers, 617 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: and it was one or the other, and that was 618 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 1: like sort of a divisive thing, and they felt kind 619 00:32:58,320 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 1: of caught in the middle. And I think that that's 620 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 1: a problem, and that's pretty toxic. And I think and 621 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: he still talked about it. He would out of his 622 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: way on Monday to say, I think I have a 623 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 1: good relationship with Alex, and you can ask Alex about that. 624 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: Alex is still Alex Gray is still there at the 625 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: team facility, working with Brady and his teammate. To me, 626 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: all of that stuff feels like, okay, stuff like that happens. 627 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 1: They've been working together for eighteen years. The part where 628 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 1: Brady wants Garoppolo out of there, that's it would almost 629 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 1: be surprising if he didn't, you know what I mean? 630 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 1: Like that is not a shot at Brady either, like 631 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: I feel like anybody would be that way. I think 632 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: a couple of things that were really First of all, Wickersham, 633 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 1: who's done the rounds after this story because it's such 634 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 1: a huge story, stands by everything, and he said the 635 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:45,719 Speaker 1: reason he decided to start pursuing the story is as 636 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: someone that has followed Lead closely and has written about 637 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: the Patriots and about Brady, something didn't pass the smell 638 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: test when they traded both their young promising quarterbacks in 639 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: two months when the only guy left was forty and 640 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: and that was right to follow Lead because there's something 641 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: that was going on there. And and whether or not 642 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: Kraft said it's not gonna go, it's not gonna happen 643 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:13,320 Speaker 1: with Garoppolo, trade him, Belichick, that's what if that's true, 644 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,359 Speaker 1: and I'm not rolling out that. Everyone seems to be, Oh, 645 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: there's no way that could happen. We'll find out if 646 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 1: maybe maybe he was influenced. Maybe it's partially true, and 647 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 1: you get why the owner would maybe say that because 648 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,839 Speaker 1: he has so much loyalty to Tom Brady. The other 649 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,240 Speaker 1: part of this story that just to me was juicy 650 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:33,360 Speaker 1: and fun was the behind the scenes look that the 651 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 1: trading of Garoppolo came in the same season, where behind 652 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: the scenes Patriots personnel coaches see Brady and decline, which 653 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 1: we've never heard before on any level, reported or anything, 654 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,800 Speaker 1: that he's misthrows that he cited a specific example of 655 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 1: Chris Hogan his the injury that essentially knocked him out 656 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 1: for the rest of the season, because Brady is more 657 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 1: skittish in the pocket. We have really relentlessly praised Brady's 658 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,360 Speaker 1: pocket presence and the way he's moved of then his 659 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: quickness late in his career, but according to this report, 660 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 1: the Patriots behind the scenes don't feel that way. They 661 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,319 Speaker 1: feel like he is starting to show his age, which 662 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 1: makes the decision to trade Garoppo all the more. I 663 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 1: totally yeah, you've lost your succession plan. That's the that's 664 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 1: sort of the dark looming footnote on all of this. 665 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like, I don't think it right now, 666 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 1: effects it sounds like Steve Wilkes is probably gonna wind 667 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 1: up as the Giants coach. We don't know that yet, 668 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 1: but that's it's They're they're not gonna pull Belichick away. 669 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,360 Speaker 1: That would be I think it's stunning it that happened, 670 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 1: which is absolutely stunning, and in Belichick is it probably 671 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 1: thought he could have had an incredible legacy if he 672 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 1: went and won something with Jimmy g two seasons. Well, 673 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:43,439 Speaker 1: he wanted to leave lost that whole that's gonna bring 674 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 1: up twenty five other teams have weren't way worse crap 675 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,800 Speaker 1: going on behind the scenes than the Patriots. But the 676 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 1: whole thing doesn't happen if the same agent Don Ye 677 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:57,439 Speaker 1: doesn't represent Brady and Garoppo. It is so random because 678 00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 1: Don Ye, for those who don't follow, is not a 679 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,760 Speaker 1: super agent with a ton of clients. He's a pretty 680 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: random agent who happened to have Tom Brady and happened 681 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: to have Garoppolo. Garopolo was his client before he was 682 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 1: drafted by the Patriots, and that, to me is where 683 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 1: this all started. And it all made it impossible because 684 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 1: Garoppolo had no interest and and some of the reporting 685 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 1: of what they offered him seventeen million dollars a year, 686 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: that's pretty wild too that they were gonna be offering 687 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:28,279 Speaker 1: Jimmy And you can see why Tom Brady and Tom 688 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 1: Brady's agent and Garoppolo, who are all basically on sort 689 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 1: of on the same team, are not going to be 690 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 1: listening to those sort of offers and it and it 691 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 1: kind of it was just bad luck I think for 692 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 1: the Patriots. What about the conspiracy theory that Belichick annoyed 693 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,239 Speaker 1: sent Jimmy g to the forty nine is to stick 694 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,360 Speaker 1: it to Tommy boy, his favorite team that he always 695 00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,400 Speaker 1: wanted to play for US. Well, I I nugget. I 696 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:53,800 Speaker 1: thought it was fascinating. And people Belichick is is obviously 697 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: seen as a sort of grumpy, uh like reclusive dude 698 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 1: or whatever, and it's quite the opposite that after the 699 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: Super Bowl he actually sat down for hours with Kyle Shanahan, 700 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: went over film and talked about that game. He cares 701 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,439 Speaker 1: what I think Belichick is becoming more of a thinking 702 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,440 Speaker 1: about his legacy not just for the Patriots but league wide, 703 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 1: friends with Roger Goodell, which he sort of shot down 704 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 1: and saying he hadn't talked to him since Halloween, and 705 00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 1: he said that fact of what that them that when 706 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: they last met was a dent and accurate. It was 707 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,080 Speaker 1: also an article that said that new players were calling 708 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,919 Speaker 1: Brady sir, and the Brady was upset that he didn't 709 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,600 Speaker 1: get the Patriot of the Week award like that. That's 710 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 1: that's those little things. That part of stuff didn't really that, 711 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,880 Speaker 1: You're right, I didn't really care, even the part about 712 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,919 Speaker 1: like them thinking, he declined, Everyone's gonna think different things. 713 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 1: I don't think anyone who watched how he played this 714 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 1: year whatever, think he was worse than he was five 715 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:51,239 Speaker 1: years ago. I never year. One of my favorite parts. 716 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: Let's go. I think it's a prideful dude bright, I 717 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: mean bright like he did come out today on w 718 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 1: e I in Boston and very strongly against the idea, 719 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 1: uh that he wanted Jimmy G out. Now what's he 720 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 1: gonna say? We get it? But they one thing else. 721 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 1: Talking to Jimmy g at the Super Bowl last year 722 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,400 Speaker 1: where it was the fifth day of media day, you 723 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 1: could sit and just hang with him for like forty minutes. 724 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 1: He talked about Brady in a way that they were 725 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 1: super tight. It was like it was like, honestly was 726 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 1: starters at the pool side, just because you want to 727 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:23,400 Speaker 1: know why everyone had filed there, will Jimmy G be 728 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 1: traded to Cleveland or Team X post two days ago? 729 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:27,959 Speaker 1: So there was nothing more to talk about. What the dude? 730 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 1: He talked about Brady, that him and Jacoby Brissette, the 731 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,280 Speaker 1: three of them had these incredible text change. He wouldn't 732 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,320 Speaker 1: tell me what was on him, but they were close friends. 733 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 1: That's how he cared. It was weird, like if Brady 734 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:39,959 Speaker 1: it was actually acting when he did that Jim Gray 735 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,279 Speaker 1: interview after Garoppolo was traded, where he acted all of 736 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 1: another another, all of that. He's that he's more cold 737 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,959 Speaker 1: blooded than I possibly imagined. You guys want a little 738 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 1: like peek behind the sea scenes of the Cessler Garoppolo 739 00:38:53,360 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 1: pool side chat. Great time with him. I am not 740 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 1: here billion years of Jimmy G and handsomeness rankings, all right, 741 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:15,479 Speaker 1: I love it? How about Cessler younger, That's not fair. 742 00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:28,879 Speaker 1: It's not a fair comparison. Uh, the throne, I say, 743 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 1: we trust them. How great for our planet? Yes. Usually, 744 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: By the way, this all comes up when you know 745 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:40,720 Speaker 1: things are going terribly for the Patriots. They are hosting 746 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 1: a playoff game this week against against the Tennessee Titans. 747 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 1: Of all, ye who predicted that. By the way, Dan, 748 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,400 Speaker 1: about three weeks ago, Well, you said they'd get swept 749 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 1: by the Jags. Funny some parts, but that the Titans 750 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 1: would Maybe this is going to Foxborough and going to 751 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: lose my three h points. Congratulations, we'll see another double 752 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 1: buy for you exactly? Why do we give the Titans 753 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:04,440 Speaker 1: a little credit for pulling off a great comeback? They 754 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:10,319 Speaker 1: beat the team credit on Sunday night, and you and 755 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 1: Titoons fans are fully aware of this. If you knock 756 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 1: off the Throne of Sleeves on Sunday, Titoons will be 757 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 1: forever retired in this student, that's preposterous. They should have 758 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 1: earned it. They should have earned it Sunday. They have 759 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 1: one more playoff games than either of your team's come 760 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,799 Speaker 1: in over the last five years. Our team was in conversation. 761 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:31,840 Speaker 1: It was an unbelievable performance. The Patriots beat the Titans 762 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 1: this weekend. You're right, no, No, I think the Patriots 763 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:35,960 Speaker 1: will take care of him. But what more do you 764 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: gotta do then win a game when you're down? They've 765 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 1: already done it. They got a lot of respect on 766 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 1: the show. Yeah, that's true. It was a great show. 767 00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:47,239 Speaker 1: Do you call the Titans the tittoons? Never? I do. Yeah. 768 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,640 Speaker 1: So I get to make the rules of what I 769 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:55,359 Speaker 1: get the politic for it, just like you little your 770 00:40:55,400 --> 00:41:01,239 Speaker 1: little you know, Patriots jabs in Colm down. Now it's 771 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:06,960 Speaker 1: time to talk a little Shoulders of Greatness presented by 772 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 1: Head and Aulder, and today's topic will be the superlatives 773 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 1: of the postseason our rankings of um, you know, different categories. 774 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,400 Speaker 1: We're gonna throw out each of us gonna I'll go 775 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 1: around the room, I'll throw out a category, you give 776 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:28,920 Speaker 1: me your answer, and then we could all agree or 777 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 1: disagree with the decisions. And Mark, we're gonna start with you, buddy. 778 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 1: Um we're gonna eight remaining playoff teams, of course. Um 779 00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:45,879 Speaker 1: so of those eight teams, who has the top quarterback 780 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 1: of the remaining teams? Is that? How to put this? 781 00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: What who would think just ranked the quarterback? Rank the quarterback? 782 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 1: Who would you put at the top of your quarterback 783 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 1: list of the eight remaining teams. Man, I could get 784 00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,320 Speaker 1: cute here. I thought Drew Brees was incredible on Sunday 785 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 1: and it has had a eight season in his Hall 786 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:04,000 Speaker 1: of Fame quarterback. But my answer is Tom Brady. I 787 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:07,200 Speaker 1: don't think I need to spend too much time explaining why. Uh. 788 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,839 Speaker 1: The case for not Tom Brady is that he hasn't 789 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 1: played that well for about a month, whereas Drew Brees 790 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:14,799 Speaker 1: just we just saw him play it off his mind. 791 00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's hard to go and if you want to, well, 792 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 1: you can go down the list too. I might go 793 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger right now going into the playoffs. Who am 794 00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:27,959 Speaker 1: I the most confident in. It's Roethlisberger. And it's close 795 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 1: between the top four because Matt Ryan's played two great 796 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: games in a row. Ryan had the Eye of the Tiger. 797 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 1: He was awesome in that game. Breeze has been fantastic 798 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: over the last three or four weeks, especially Sunday. But 799 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 1: Roethlisberger was the best quarterback in the league over the 800 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,000 Speaker 1: last six, seven, eight weeks. And I put a lot 801 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:48,879 Speaker 1: of stock and Roethlisberger one Brady to I don't think 802 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 1: that Ben Roethlisberger sulks though that bothers me about him, 803 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:56,759 Speaker 1: and throws devastating interceptions in their left five. So Blake is, 804 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,320 Speaker 1: let's let's flip this, Greg. If you get into the 805 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 1: n f C champion and the Steelers get Tom Brady 806 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:07,080 Speaker 1: and your Patriots get Big Ben, that's what you'd prefer. Wow, 807 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 1: that's well, is that what you'd prefer? It? This strange argument, 808 00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 1: because I'm not you would be getting the better You'd 809 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:16,239 Speaker 1: be getting the better quarterback according to your ranking here 810 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 1: right now, I think he's playing better. Down four points 811 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:24,360 Speaker 1: with ninety seconds to play and two time outs, starting 812 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,920 Speaker 1: at your own twenty. This is how I do it. 813 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 1: Who's the quarterback I want? I would probably say Brady? Yeah, Brady. 814 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 1: What if Brady doesn't have Gronk? Would it still be 815 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 1: Brady did it? With his stats without Gronkowski are incredible. 816 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: I don't think there's a huge gap though, between those four, 817 00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:42,719 Speaker 1: the way Breeze is playing right now or Matt Ryan. 818 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 1: For me, it's it's Breeze or Brady, and I can't. 819 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:50,319 Speaker 1: I can't. They're so close. The other one one other 820 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 1: nugget I cannot leave out of the ESK poor case, 821 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,719 Speaker 1: he's fit, You're better than three playoff quarterback to Mariota 822 00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 1: Blake and then falls favorite Brady being sensitive about his 823 00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:06,400 Speaker 1: place in the future of the Patriots. Nugget from that 824 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,360 Speaker 1: story was when Jimmy G heard his shoulder last season 825 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,480 Speaker 1: and uh, he scheduled an appointment with the TV twelve 826 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:14,400 Speaker 1: clinic and when he got there, the doors were locked 827 00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:16,479 Speaker 1: and he couldn't get in for two weeks. I didn't 828 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 1: know that was the part I found. His phone calls 829 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,800 Speaker 1: are returned and he wasn't able to get treatment until 830 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:27,280 Speaker 1: a Patriots official reached out to Guerrero's clinic. I love that. 831 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 1: That is some caddy behavior from the goat. That's how 832 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 1: it went. It is. It's just yeah, So Jimmy G 833 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:38,840 Speaker 1: could tell you pool side about how they're best friends, 834 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 1: but when the push comes to shove, Dan and I 835 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:42,600 Speaker 1: were going back and forth. He was all, you know, 836 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 1: fired up about this article and the Titans, making it 837 00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:48,759 Speaker 1: very upset, and I came up with a conclusion at 838 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 1: this point, Dan is more emotionally invested in the Patriots 839 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 1: than I. I mean, he's rooting against them, but he 840 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 1: he is more into it, Like he certainly is more 841 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: he certainly is more set that the Titans are going 842 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 1: in there that I'm excited about. Well, what do you 843 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 1: obsess over more than things that you hate? And you 844 00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:07,440 Speaker 1: hate the Patriots and you want them out? How many 845 00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:10,800 Speaker 1: times did you read that article? I read it three times? 846 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 1: On a surface level there, it's not even close, because 847 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 1: but you're more like you pretend like you don't care 848 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 1: about the I care a lot, but then I care 849 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 1: a lot, but only about certain things when a big 850 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:23,520 Speaker 1: game happens, Like that Steelers game, you were stewing in 851 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,279 Speaker 1: your chair and all fired up, so you're way into it. 852 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:28,920 Speaker 1: I'm way in, But all this other stuff and like 853 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,440 Speaker 1: who's coming in and all the stuff surrounding it, that's 854 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:34,759 Speaker 1: not going to get me to excite, right. That's like, 855 00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 1: you're still going to the AFC Championship game and things 856 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 1: aren't that bad, Patriots fan. Things are fun alright. Home 857 00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 1: field advantage? Who has the best power raking the home advantage? 858 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:47,920 Speaker 1: Does that include the teams that are no longer playing 859 00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:51,840 Speaker 1: at home? If you cannot have a home game and 860 00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 1: the Saints could Saints good anywhere, you could still have one. 861 00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:57,320 Speaker 1: The only person the only team that's eliminated from Falcons 862 00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,800 Speaker 1: and technically and the tight Titans. Give me the Vikings. 863 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 1: I'm with you. Why do you say the Viking. I 864 00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 1: just think that stadium. I can't wait to go there 865 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 1: for the super Bowl. But it looks like that stadium 866 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,720 Speaker 1: goes wild for the team when they're there. It's so loud, 867 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 1: and I mean the fact that the super Bowl is 868 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:16,319 Speaker 1: being hosted there. If they can get that far, that's 869 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 1: incredible home field advantage. That's huge motivation. I had the 870 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:22,520 Speaker 1: Vikings there too, um, I mean in terms of results 871 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 1: that the results in New England are they speak for themselves. 872 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 1: But the Vikings, like everyone sort of just keeps all 873 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:30,560 Speaker 1: the rams are going the Super Bowls, the Vikings are 874 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 1: sitting there being like, we don't really care what you 875 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:34,400 Speaker 1: think about us. We're gonna knock someone out this weekend 876 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,799 Speaker 1: and host the NFC Championship the next While I was 877 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,319 Speaker 1: I was in the Superdome Sunday and that was the 878 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:42,920 Speaker 1: loudest stadium I've ever been in in my life. And 879 00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 1: and a lot of the people that have been around 880 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:47,000 Speaker 1: that team for a while said it had been six 881 00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:48,840 Speaker 1: years since they had a home game, so there was 882 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 1: a lot of pent up excitement, and it was wild 883 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:54,319 Speaker 1: when they when they got the when they put on 884 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:58,239 Speaker 1: stand up and get crunk after a touchdown, and that 885 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:02,200 Speaker 1: place is partying, and when the Panthers were on offense, 886 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:07,120 Speaker 1: it was just deafening in that state. I did not know. 887 00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:12,360 Speaker 1: He's got to be professionally. It's interesting no one mentions Pittsburgh. 888 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's great in The Patriots have taken some heat over 889 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:17,600 Speaker 1: the years for the Fox broke out, and I think 890 00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:21,200 Speaker 1: it's deserved having been around. They're not always there for 891 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,239 Speaker 1: like the week thirteen one o'clock game, treating as the 892 00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:26,880 Speaker 1: real special deal. They'll they'll be a plenty for for 893 00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:29,120 Speaker 1: these playoffs. Hinfield is good. It's just I don't think 894 00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:31,600 Speaker 1: it's at the level of the super Dome. If they 895 00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:33,560 Speaker 1: get a home game and the title game, watch out, 896 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:38,320 Speaker 1: people there are already like everyone's thinking Saints Falcon's NFC championship. 897 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:40,399 Speaker 1: All right, that's what the next category. We gotta hurry, 898 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:44,399 Speaker 1: we gotta get this one in before Connie leaves. Hottest coordinator. 899 00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:49,720 Speaker 1: This is the most physically attractive UH coordinator either side producing. 900 00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 1: I thought it was just like who's the best. That's 901 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:56,880 Speaker 1: how the most handsome well, I've been to some you know, 902 00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 1: training through HR at the company and I'm not comfortable. Well, 903 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:03,440 Speaker 1: I have no problem answering that, And I'm going with 904 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:09,799 Speaker 1: Dick lebou where he's at at his age, Yes, all 905 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 1: day he's he's a classy guy, he's funny, ex athlete, 906 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,759 Speaker 1: he was a songwriter. Look at that. You can get 907 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:24,279 Speaker 1: serenaded by him. I did a lot of research. You 908 00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:26,360 Speaker 1: can look at his stick lebo at his age doing 909 00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:29,640 Speaker 1: fine mark and manual from the Falcons got high into 910 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:33,399 Speaker 1: my rankings. But after searching every single one of these 911 00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:37,759 Speaker 1: before the show, I'm going with Frank Reich. Get a 912 00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 1: lot of study of that I did, and I want 913 00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:43,080 Speaker 1: to say there was there was for the category. There 914 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:45,480 Speaker 1: wasn't necessarily a lot to pick from because these guys 915 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:47,799 Speaker 1: like they look like they've been through some battles. There's 916 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:50,359 Speaker 1: some weather worn coordinators not getting a lot of sleep here. 917 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 1: But Frank Reich still has a bit of that quarterback 918 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 1: d and age, handsome, handsome Todd Haley before or after 919 00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:59,000 Speaker 1: the hip injury. Either way, he did not make my 920 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,320 Speaker 1: top five. I did think gets I think it's attractive 921 00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 1: that Todd Halley shattered his hip fighting for the honor 922 00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 1: of his wife. I like that. That's not my choice. Um, 923 00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 1: what was your your Riich has kind of like a 924 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 1: late period Scott Bacula a little bit. It's a big 925 00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:16,399 Speaker 1: quantum leap fan as well as necessary roughness. I will 926 00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:20,040 Speaker 1: go with Matt, Patricia shout out to the bear community 927 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:24,400 Speaker 1: listening to the show, which I know we have a Um. Okay, 928 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:27,040 Speaker 1: he also looks a lot, he pointed out. He looks 929 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 1: exactly like the buccaneer's mascot. It's really uncanny, Patricia to me, 930 00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:36,520 Speaker 1: I mean he's a guy that can he can make 931 00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:39,960 Speaker 1: a fire, you can change a tire, he can uh, 932 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:44,040 Speaker 1: you know, he can drive stick he uh. And you 933 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,680 Speaker 1: know what, on Valentine's Day, he might surprise you when 934 00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 1: he's in the kitchen and so you you actually find 935 00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:53,280 Speaker 1: him to be the physically attractive of all the entrance. 936 00:49:54,800 --> 00:50:01,000 Speaker 1: That's the sounder. I'm already late for my meeting. It's 937 00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:03,400 Speaker 1: been real. I can leave my answers with you. I 938 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:05,000 Speaker 1: wrote them on the back of a receipt if you 939 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:08,960 Speaker 1: want them, yeah, please can do. I need for an 940 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 1: expense report, do you mind, I'll bring it down for you. 941 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 1: I don't need it. Do you mind telling um the 942 00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,319 Speaker 1: people in that meeting that it's probably not necessary to 943 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:20,680 Speaker 1: have a power rankings production meeting in the divisional round, player, 944 00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:23,239 Speaker 1: I think you should come in and over. Can you 945 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:25,600 Speaker 1: can tell them after the pod when you're watching it 946 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 1: one to eight by seed and break down alright later, guys, alright, 947 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 1: fare well, alright, moving on. We never got an answer, 948 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 1: and go ahead. I was thinking, Patricia, Wow, same reason. 949 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 1: That's quite at for two people. I really saying, I 950 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:50,680 Speaker 1: don't I think that he's like a guy with a 951 00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:54,080 Speaker 1: big grizzly beard who wears a baseball hat backwards like that. No, 952 00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:56,600 Speaker 1: I I think that Patricia's fine. I just don't think 953 00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 1: it would have been the autumn like you can made 954 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:02,040 Speaker 1: it a nod to the Bear community. So you're calling 955 00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:06,800 Speaker 1: it a friend about about Todd Washed, the Jaguars defensive coordinator, 956 00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 1: just because I don't think anyone's mentioned his name on 957 00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:14,719 Speaker 1: the podcast all season, and he coordinates the best defense 958 00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:17,560 Speaker 1: in the league. So you know, that's what's a to me, 959 00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:21,239 Speaker 1: strong but silent type. You stay under the radar and 960 00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:23,640 Speaker 1: you produced. I was telling Dan at Beers with Todd 961 00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:26,080 Speaker 1: Wash at the Combine Airport back when he was with 962 00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:29,360 Speaker 1: the Seahawks, and I will say that he is the 963 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:31,440 Speaker 1: kind of guy where like women were looking at him 964 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:33,240 Speaker 1: as they walked by. It was a big, muscle bound 965 00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:38,280 Speaker 1: dude pounding beer. So Greg, maybe onto something the next category? 966 00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:45,960 Speaker 1: All right, weird band bandwagons to jump on? Okay, so 967 00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,719 Speaker 1: this is the team we would join if and just yeah, 968 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 1: I guess it's dump our own, Greg, we would dump 969 00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:57,640 Speaker 1: our own team, or like, in general, of the eight teams, 970 00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:00,239 Speaker 1: who's the team I want to want a route to 971 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:03,600 Speaker 1: take it to the house. It sounds strange saying this 972 00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 1: because uh, yeah, I definitely have an allegiance to the 973 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,520 Speaker 1: Saints over the years, and I'm rooting for them and 974 00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:12,240 Speaker 1: I'm rooting for their fans. But it's the Atlanta Falcons 975 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:15,160 Speaker 1: that's my choice. That's the team when I watched them 976 00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:18,239 Speaker 1: just the last few weeks kind of coming together and 977 00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:20,279 Speaker 1: the fact that they're trying to come back from that 978 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:24,719 Speaker 1: devastating um lost last year. A lot of their fans 979 00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:27,400 Speaker 1: are Georgia fans trying to lick their wounds from the 980 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:30,719 Speaker 1: National Championship game last night. And I don't know, there's 981 00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:33,000 Speaker 1: something about this team that I just kind of like watching. 982 00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:34,960 Speaker 1: I like the story that's kind of that's the team. 983 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:37,440 Speaker 1: I'm just I have the Falcons too, um And I 984 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:41,280 Speaker 1: did put in parentheticals in my notes beware it's filling 985 00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:44,120 Speaker 1: up fast. They are you know, it's a which isn't 986 00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:46,200 Speaker 1: a bad thing. But I think now that they've kind 987 00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:48,760 Speaker 1: of found their footing and they played such a heavy, 988 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:51,719 Speaker 1: uh quality game against the Rams, a team that we 989 00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:53,920 Speaker 1: all really liked, and they were the team a t L. 990 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,960 Speaker 1: And then you factor in the the kind of story 991 00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:01,240 Speaker 1: line behind this all, which is it be cool trying 992 00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:05,879 Speaker 1: to um wipe away the pain of an unprecedented Super 993 00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:08,760 Speaker 1: Bowl loss, maybe even against the team that beat them. 994 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:11,359 Speaker 1: So yeah, I think that to me, that's a band 995 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:14,880 Speaker 1: wagon worth jumping on. That would be incredible to watch. 996 00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:17,200 Speaker 1: So that's They're on my list. But um, I went Vikings. 997 00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 1: I just think that the Vikings fan base has been 998 00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:22,520 Speaker 1: through so much. Every city you go to there are 999 00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:25,839 Speaker 1: Vikings bars, there are super loyal group. They have never 1000 00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:27,799 Speaker 1: wavered through all the non sence they've been through. And 1001 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:30,040 Speaker 1: if if they were to ever pull it off and 1002 00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:32,120 Speaker 1: win a Super Bowl after a full Super Bowl week 1003 00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 1: at home in their own streets and then win that game. 1004 00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:36,960 Speaker 1: It would be an incredible one year after we got 1005 00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:39,040 Speaker 1: our first overtime, I think this would top it. The 1006 00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:41,759 Speaker 1: whole experience of being in Minnesota with a with a 1007 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:44,640 Speaker 1: quarterback like case Keenum and a guy like I just 1008 00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:48,120 Speaker 1: think the from the cold coaching staff Zimmer be likable. 1009 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:50,040 Speaker 1: So there, I jump right on that band wagon. Well, 1010 00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:51,759 Speaker 1: if I knew that you were gonna say Falcons, I 1011 00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:53,640 Speaker 1: take it back. I'm going back to the Saints because 1012 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 1: this is a fun Saints team. You saw after the game, 1013 00:53:56,719 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 1: like Sean Payton breaking out the breaking out the broom, 1014 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 1: doing some dancing. You got Alvin Camar Camaro with the 1015 00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:11,319 Speaker 1: air head Camara Camara Camara like a camaroa. He's got 1016 00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:13,960 Speaker 1: the air heads on the sideline. He's walking home. Cameron 1017 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 1: Jordan's like a very fun person. It's a fun it's 1018 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:20,239 Speaker 1: a fun very trash talking. If they made the Super Bowl, 1019 00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:21,960 Speaker 1: they'd be entered to who I can't root for those 1020 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:24,160 Speaker 1: Sean Payton, he's right next to Belichick to me and 1021 00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:26,400 Speaker 1: the hard to root for power ranking. He used though 1022 00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:28,520 Speaker 1: he's getting a little older. He's wearing his glasses on 1023 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:32,480 Speaker 1: the side. I think he's a little more maybe not 1024 00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:36,360 Speaker 1: cutter about how you want to join the Falcons bandwagon. 1025 00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:38,120 Speaker 1: And he's throwing up the choke sign to them on 1026 00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:40,960 Speaker 1: the sidelines. Yeah, and he's breaking out and he's breaking 1027 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:43,120 Speaker 1: out of broom when he sweeps the Panthers. I kind 1028 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:44,920 Speaker 1: of like that in sports. So you know, it's like, 1029 00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm a big parcels guy and Peyton is 1030 00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:49,920 Speaker 1: a protege, but I don't know, there's something to me 1031 00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:55,799 Speaker 1: a little bit more gruff and likable about Parcels and yeah, 1032 00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:58,920 Speaker 1: you know what's like his protegees. Yeah, but you're not 1033 00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:02,480 Speaker 1: the only one that feels this about ourselves. Obviously be salty. 1034 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:06,560 Speaker 1: They might have learned saltiness from Parcels. But I always 1035 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:09,719 Speaker 1: liked Peyton has some enemies. You're not. You're not alone. 1036 00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:13,080 Speaker 1: Uniforms power Rankings, I'll start this one. I will also 1037 00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 1: probably will bring up the Vikings again, like the purple, 1038 00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:20,839 Speaker 1: like the horns, like the like the mascot that drives 1039 00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:25,399 Speaker 1: on the motorcycle and the horn they have pretty cool 1040 00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:30,480 Speaker 1: but the it's a classic uniform combo Vikings home unis 1041 00:55:30,480 --> 00:55:33,200 Speaker 1: in purple. That's my pick. I'm gonna give you mine 1042 00:55:33,239 --> 00:55:36,319 Speaker 1: real quick in order because I could not find a 1043 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:40,239 Speaker 1: better uniform than the Saints on Sunday fantastic. They're my 1044 00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:45,359 Speaker 1: number one. I go Saints, Steelers, Patriots, Vikings, Eagles, Titans, Falcons, Jaguars. 1045 00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:48,560 Speaker 1: Don't love the Jaguars UNI. The helmets a problems, pretty ugly, 1046 00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:51,640 Speaker 1: the how it gets pretty ugly. The uniforms some of 1047 00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:53,239 Speaker 1: the teams on half the teams of some of the 1048 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:55,719 Speaker 1: worst unif I don't. I do not like the Patriots uniforms, 1049 00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 1: even as a Patriots fan, ever since they changed them 1050 00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:00,359 Speaker 1: in the logo, and I've never been a fan. I'm 1051 00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:02,920 Speaker 1: going I was surprised Eagles was so low on your list. 1052 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 1: That's my number one to me, that's classic. Love that 1053 00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 1: green I've always I don't like the logo. I feel like, 1054 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:10,680 Speaker 1: I don't know, there's very like early two thousand's and 1055 00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:13,920 Speaker 1: it looks a little I like the unit at its uniform. 1056 00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:16,840 Speaker 1: I'm going to Eagles, Yes, Steelers would be Wait the 1057 00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:20,400 Speaker 1: Eagles have the wings? Did they have something else than they? 1058 00:56:20,680 --> 00:56:23,440 Speaker 1: Am I getting confused here? Did the Eagles move away 1059 00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:26,080 Speaker 1: from the wings at a certain point and they'll come 1060 00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:28,080 Speaker 1: back to them? I don't know, but I don't like 1061 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:31,160 Speaker 1: the dark green color with the black. I feel like 1062 00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:33,080 Speaker 1: it's love hate for Eagles because I hear some people 1063 00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:35,239 Speaker 1: say it's the best unif love football, and I to 1064 00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:38,640 Speaker 1: me like, I just don't. I don't like the combination 1065 00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:41,839 Speaker 1: of Eagles versus a lot of teams. Steelers is great, 1066 00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:44,359 Speaker 1: it's very good. I think the Jaguars and Titans might 1067 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:47,160 Speaker 1: have the two worst uniforms in the league, but that's 1068 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 1: another disc Browns would have something, uh finally, dark horse potential, 1069 00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 1: a team of the eight that everyone is sleeping on 1070 00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:00,200 Speaker 1: that there aren't a ton of choices here. Now you 1071 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 1: can't just pick like a third seat or second seat 1072 00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:08,040 Speaker 1: or something. I go the Eagles then, because everyone is 1073 00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:11,360 Speaker 1: just assuming the Falcons go in there and win that game, 1074 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:14,239 Speaker 1: and we'll get into the preview of why maybe that 1075 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 1: will happen or not. But Nick Foles, everyone's just getting 1076 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:23,640 Speaker 1: When there's such conventional wisdom all in one direction, that 1077 00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:26,160 Speaker 1: worries me, especially when you've got a lot of talent 1078 00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 1: on that team in Phil it it's a great pick. 1079 00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:30,160 Speaker 1: I mean our pick up show last week's show that 1080 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 1: when we all sit there and you know, with ultra 1081 00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:37,320 Speaker 1: Hubris predict across the board, that one team is gonna 1082 00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:40,120 Speaker 1: win without even questioning it. Yeah, things don't go that way. 1083 00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:41,960 Speaker 1: We made a very clear in fact, we were not 1084 00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:44,640 Speaker 1: by saying I just like to put that, I just 1085 00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:47,360 Speaker 1: like to act by the way. It could have been worse. 1086 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:49,640 Speaker 1: It could have been worse. I I went Falcons. I 1087 00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 1: mean just because I think a week ago people thought 1088 00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:53,840 Speaker 1: left for dead gonna get flamed by the Rams. Probably 1089 00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:56,240 Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh is the greatest human on the West side 1090 00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:59,480 Speaker 1: of the United States, and suddenly Dan quinn got it done. 1091 00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:02,160 Speaker 1: The guy know is talking about the second team. I pick, though, 1092 00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:04,360 Speaker 1: and I'm not talking Super Bowl, but I I think 1093 00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:06,680 Speaker 1: everyone's gonna say, oh, they're out this week. I could 1094 00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:08,840 Speaker 1: see the Jaguars defense, if they get off to a 1095 00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:12,080 Speaker 1: good start against Pittsburgh, winning a weird, wacky game. I 1096 00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:14,720 Speaker 1: could just see that. Don't discount them just because they 1097 00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:18,280 Speaker 1: had a terrible game, don't. It would have to be 1098 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:21,400 Speaker 1: a super weird game, but it's possible. Weird. I don't 1099 00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:25,320 Speaker 1: even need to say anything else, because Greg, the way 1100 00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:29,560 Speaker 1: what you said about the Eagles is exactly how. No 1101 00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:32,560 Speaker 1: one's giving them any chance. But they are still a 1102 00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 1: number one seed at home with a good defense, and 1103 00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:38,959 Speaker 1: that could travel, that could that could win a game, 1104 00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:42,240 Speaker 1: that could get them to the next round, but they 1105 00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:44,800 Speaker 1: are a dark horse.
