The Chiefs have promoted 96 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: co Director of Player Personnel Brett Veach Viach am I 97 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 1: pronouncing that correctly.

Guys, what 99 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 1: other options would they be other than Veach Kate Veach 100 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: from Dodgeball. They're related. I think that's it. Anyway, He's 101 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: the new general manager. UH first developed the development was 102 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 1: first reported by rap Sheet and NFL networks. Tom Placeerro's 103 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: what you miss when you go away on vacation high. 104 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,359 Speaker 1: I can't keep track all these building the roster. How 105 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 1: these people making more money than me? But anyway, veach 106 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: Is promotion comes after the chiefs and former g M 107 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:43,719 Speaker 1: John Dorsey part of Ways on June, Greg, You're takeaways, Well, my, 108 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 1: you know it. One big reason to watch the video 109 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: show is for all this Brett Veach. Hey, you're getting 110 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: quite a quite a job. Just old the vat you're 111 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: walking around, h you know, I can't believe they did this. 112 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: I don't think Veach deserves this at this point. This 113 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: is absolutely insane too. How does how does anyone I 114 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: would have stopped myself at some point. I don't know 115 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 1: how anyone has like a hot take when these sort 116 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: of internal, you know, promotions happened, unless you really, you know, 117 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,359 Speaker 1: you're a real true insider, which I'm not pretending to be. 118 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: I don't have any hot takes in Beach. Yeah, and 119 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: I don't think even the takes that people would say 120 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 1: were the hottest. I don't know if they were very hot. 121 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: People were just saying, well, they go from within to 122 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: a guy who's close to the head coach, and the 123 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: head coach was supposedly had no part in any decision 124 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 1: to get rid of and so people are connecting that dot. 125 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: But is that is that really that solid take their 126 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: mild It's not my take. I'm just saying that's you 127 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: might have to put yourself on a clay. But what 128 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 1: do we call it again, the claibron, the hot takes 129 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: on Budsman, you might have to put yourself on blest. 130 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: That is a take that exists. I'm pointing out the 131 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: existence of Okay, you're pointing out it is fair to 132 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: point out that, you know, the general manager who had 133 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: been doing a good job and was surprisingly canned in 134 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: the middle of the off season is a strange situation, 135 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: and they decided to pick a guy who gets along 136 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: with the Andy Reid. I mean that makes the makes sense. 137 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a hot thing. I'm saying it 138 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: would be weird if they picked someone that didn't get 139 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: along with Andy Reid, that had no history with Andy Reid. 140 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: I mean, what are we doing here? Oh? What about? 141 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: What are we doing? Like there's a story on July tenth, 142 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: two thousand and seventeen on NFL dot Com about the 143 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: Chiefs picking their new general manager. How did this ever 144 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: happen in the first place? This is a successful team. 145 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: I'm still confused about how this happened in the first place. 146 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: But good good luck to but maybe the she's silent, 147 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: It's possible, kind of like that one. Actually, moving on, 148 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: let's talk about Cam Newton, UH, the Carolina Panthers quarterback. 149 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: As we know. As we know Patrick and Greg, Cam 150 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: took a beating last year, and UH, I think the 151 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: Panthers seemed to be at a place now where they're 152 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: they're saying, hey, we gotta keep this guy healthy. We 153 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: gotta keep him on the field because he can't get 154 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: tinue to take this beating as he gets deeper into 155 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: his twenties. Panthers coach Ron Rivera UH spoke to Serious 156 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: x M NFL radio on Monday, UH and said that 157 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: the offense UH was always designed to get the ball 158 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: out of Newton's hands faster, but now they can possibly 159 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: do that. They're actually built that way thanks to the 160 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: addition of both Christian McCaffrey and UH Curtis Samuel in 161 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: the most recent draft. UH. Here is the quote from 162 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: riverboat run. We struggled last year, uh with that. The 163 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: first one being able to protect him. Our left tackle 164 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: Michael or Got got gets hurt, and we got to 165 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 1: re shuffle our offensive line to move guys around. That 166 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,199 Speaker 1: wasn't the best thing for us. We went out and 167 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: made some moves and free agency to help shore up 168 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: the offensive line. Then we go out and feel like 169 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: we have to continue to put playmakers around him. We 170 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: went out and found a very versatile, explosive running back 171 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 1: who had tremendous college career and hopefully that translates to 172 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: the NFL, and Christian McCaffrey. We went out and got 173 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 1: Chris Samuel out of Ohio state of very explosive vertical attack. 174 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: M well, Ron feels good. He's feeling good about this. 175 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: I think you know they telegraphed this even before the 176 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: end of last season. You know they talked about that 177 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: Cam Newton needed to evolve at some point beyond running. 178 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: I think Rivera said twenties zone read plays a game 179 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: where he's getting hit on ten of him and they 180 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: need to protect him. And our very own Chris Westling 181 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 1: not in the house today, which is too bad because 182 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: he could be crowing because I think he might have 183 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: had just a little bit of impact here. He wrote 184 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: an article saying that they need to follow the path 185 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: of Ben Roethlisberger in the Steelers kind of in the 186 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: middle of his career when they got Todd Haley to 187 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 1: maybe back off a little bit of of getting him 188 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: hit so much, get the ball out of his hands 189 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: a little quicker, even though he's a great vertical passer, 190 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 1: protect him a little bit. And now Ron Rivera is 191 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: practically quoting that article. When asked about it on Sirius 192 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 1: on Monday, you know, he said, there's a great example 193 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: out there. It's been written about, and it's been talked 194 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: about with Pittsburgh and Ben Roethlisberger. And he goes on 195 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: to say, you know, they actually looked at what the 196 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: Steelers did in terms of their backfield and their receiver corps, 197 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: and they've kind of modeled some of the offense off 198 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: of what the Steelers have done with it. Yeah, Wes 199 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: has the ear of Riverboat. Ron. I mean, it's it's 200 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: fairly obvious when you when you say that West was crowing. 201 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 1: I said he could have the opportunity to because you 202 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 1: making an illusion to go into the Ravens nest. Is 203 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 1: that what that was? Not it? I mean crowing means 204 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: like bragging, you know, puff, you puff your chest out. Patrick, 205 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 1: I can't be the only one in the room that 206 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: thought for a second maybe we were taking an impromptu 207 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: trip to the Ravens. Was all over that. But going 208 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: through the numbers of of Cam and his yards per 209 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: attempt in the last two months of last season, he 210 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,959 Speaker 1: was under four. He's never been under four carrying the 211 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: ball at his entire career for a month of a season. 212 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: And so he's playing with a with the shoulder injury 213 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: that require surgery, right, I mean he was playing partially 214 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: torn road Like, not only is it is it a 215 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: smart thing to do, but eventually it wasn't gonna work anymore. 216 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 1: You weren't gonna be able to build a whole plane 217 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 1: out of Cam much longer. I wrote about the Panthers 218 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 1: as part of this article teams that are changing their identities, 219 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: we're gonna get We're gonna get to that. But since 220 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: we're talking Panthers now, I mean there their identity in 221 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 1: the past. I think was counting on Cam to complete 222 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: really low percentage throws. I think he's a streaky passer. 223 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 1: But he's a very good downfield passer. But I watched 224 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: some game pass for this article, and you know, if 225 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 1: you want to play a game, if you're a very 226 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: mass achistic Panthers fan, you know, on a drop back 227 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: pass for Cam Newton, just pause it when he gets 228 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: back to the end of his job and look for 229 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,439 Speaker 1: an open receiver. You can't find one. You've got Kelvin 230 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: Benjamin's covered, you know, Devin Funch just has covered two 231 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 1: slugs on the outside. What I'm saying, essentially, and but 232 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 1: now yet, let's incorporate some easy throws into the McCaffrey, 233 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: you know, Samuel, some short throws. You know, just what 234 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: the rest of the NFL is essentially doing. Claim yes 235 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: or no, Panthers bouncing back this year, yes or no? Yes, 236 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: because it was it was so bad last year and 237 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks hurt, and yeah, they gotta go some, they 238 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 1: gotta go up. Yeah, that's sports. You know. He goes 239 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: one way and he was like the other way, and 240 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: then we all talk about it. I texted West about 241 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: this yesterday because I thought he might be excited. Where 242 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: did he come from? Where he coming down on this? 243 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: He was, he was excited it made him like Ron 244 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: rivera he he says, Ron River is willing to change. 245 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,960 Speaker 1: You know, he had the He got more aggressive in 246 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: terms of showing it, going for it on fourth down, 247 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: you know Riverboat ron Uh goes for touchdowns more instead 248 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 1: a field goes. And he even thought maybe we might 249 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 1: have to bring it back around with the Panthers as 250 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: a team around the NFL. Oh my gosh. They were 251 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: the original. So that that's what it takes. If you 252 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: want West on your side, you just gotta just praise him. Well. 253 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: I mean he doesn't. West doesn't like to talk about this, 254 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: but in a lot of ways, to is the team 255 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: of westd l Uh. He will not he will not 256 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: really get behind someone else. It's more like when West 257 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: comes around the team, you're shaking your head like this 258 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: hasn't been the But in the Panthers case, the first 259 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: time around, I was fully in on those Panthers. I 260 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: love the two thousands yougo that was about your yougo there, 261 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: I was. I was saying both of them, you were 262 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: in on the Panther. I'm saying where we were sharing it. 263 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: That guy, So it wasn't just West. I know where 264 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 1: you're coming from now that's why you went, Oh, it 265 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: wasn't about you thinking I was slandering West, you not 266 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,319 Speaker 1: getting the credit you felt you deserved. It would be 267 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:34,959 Speaker 1: fun to go through all the teams of a t 268 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: L and find out where you guys stand on them. Now, Yeah, 269 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: well we gotta I mean, this could be the last 270 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 1: team of a t L. Let's yeah, we've we've kind 271 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: of swung and missed two straight years. I think the 272 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: Panthers the first time around was a big hit and 273 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 1: since then it's been trouble, all right, moving on. One 274 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: team that won't be a team of a t L 275 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: is the CTL Seahawks. Uh and uh, you know you 276 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 1: read the ESPN story last month. I think it came 277 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: out where it's it's spoke of a lot of discord, 278 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 1: uh going on behind the scenes. There some mistrust, some 279 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson heat involving some key players. A lot of 280 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 1: the players, including Richard Sherman Um, have come out and 281 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: said that stories bogus, there's nothing, do not look behind 282 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 1: the curt and everything's cool. Uh. Cliff April is the 283 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: latest man to do so. He told the NFL No 284 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: Huddle podcast, I'm not familiar. We are now um. He 285 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: told them this past Friday. I think it's all hashtag 286 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 1: fake news. He didn't say hashtag Um. I think it's 287 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: all dead. It was a dead period, so people needed 288 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: something to talk about at the same time too. Let's 289 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: be honest, it's ninety guys in the locker room right now. 290 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: There is no way that ninety guys are going to 291 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: always get along. And that's just what it is. I'm 292 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: pretty sure there are people at your job right now, Well, 293 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: this is interesting. That's way less than ninety that don't 294 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: get along. That's just part of it. That's I mean, 295 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 1: that's exactly what I would say. I mean, you could 296 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 1: you can make a situation for virtually any assembly of 297 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: humans where it's like, oh, this guy, this guy once 298 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: said something that this guy. I mean, they went through 299 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: experience in the super Bowl where they lost, Like obviously 300 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: that's going to be a memory that hangs on to 301 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: people for forever. And you could write some story two 302 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: years down the road that say, well, they're upset about this, Well, yeah, 303 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 1: they're upset they lost in the last play of the 304 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: super Bowl. It's a fair point in terms of co 305 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: workers not getting along. I mean, when I came over 306 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 1: to the NFL. You know, I was coming from kind 307 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 1: of a little mom and pop shop. I was amazed 308 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 1: that some of the trash talking, you know, in different 309 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: circles about other people that worked at them, you know, 310 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: and people got the rivalries they got together. Let's let's 311 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: not pretend there were you know, wasn't he back where 312 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: you left either though? You know, so it doesn't matter 313 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: how big or small company is, there's always people don't 314 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: always get along, which is cliffs point. Yeah. Yeah, I've 315 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: got a couple of things about this. Number One, the 316 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: Ohuddle podcast hosted by NFL Network former host Brian Webber 317 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: and web Rebber Brian Webber, host of NFL. I am 318 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: they've damaged with the famous uh the impression of Webber impression. Yes, 319 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: I never met greg Or Brian Brian Webber, but I 320 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: don't know why I'm bringing good it's a good gut. 321 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 1: Number Two, the fake you know, using the term fake 322 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: news like this has been an effect. I know, we don't. 323 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: This is not the politics you know podcast. I was 324 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: gonna say, we could just tee up Claybon and walk 325 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: out and let him dissect. I'm just saying fake news 326 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: like this as a strategy. It's working, I mean, causing 327 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: sowing the seeds of concern and people doubting the whatever 328 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: you want to call journalism, journalism like people people are 329 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: doubting it. It's it's working on Cliff April either and 330 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: it is. It is. It's starting to erote like it's 331 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: an effective strategy that that's going on to fake People 332 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: need to pick and choose when they use fake news. 333 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, because I mean, I just did 334 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 1: an update where I talked about Emmanuel Sanders diet and 335 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: cutting out fast food. That's not necessarily fake news, but 336 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: it is because there was there's not a lot of 337 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: stuff for us to do in the update, so I 338 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: talked about, you know, cheeseburgers. That's kind of that kind 339 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: of is fake news a little bit. Yeah, it can 340 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: go either will be fake news. If I said he 341 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 1: was a clown and he was murdering cats like that 342 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,199 Speaker 1: would be fake That's very fake news. I hope it 343 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: is anyway. Um, And finally in the news, I just 344 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: want to do a little um public service announcement on 345 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: behalf of the city of my not uh. The new 346 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: automated collection cans continue to be delivered. We ask you 347 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 1: not to write or mark on these cans. I repeat, 348 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 1: the new automated collection cans continue to be delivered when 349 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 1: you get one at your residence. Please do not write 350 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: or mark on these cans. Sometimes people like to write 351 00:17:55,800 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: their address or some identify and identifying marker. Don't do 352 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: it because that the city, you know, and all their wisdom, 353 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: and I trust the reasons are divine. Uh, they say, 354 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: do not refrain. I mean, I thought you were doing 355 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 1: a really nice public service announcement for the city when 356 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: you retweeted it from the around the NFL account only 357 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 1: only for our editor.

Our editor unretweeted it. He did. 365 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: That's the thing about it is, now that he's at 366 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 1: the top of the pyramid on the news desk, he 367 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 1: thinks he can make those decisions unilaterally, and it's like, bro, uh, 368 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: you don't unretweet something that a founding member of the 369 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: Around the NFL team tweeted out, retweeted, I made that decision. 370 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: That was my call. I wanted to get the word 371 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,199 Speaker 1: out and uh, you don't go on retweet. You know 372 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: he sticked the football to you. God terrible And by 373 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: the way, um, and a follow up tweet the city 374 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 1: and why not, um, lets us know that the reason 375 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 1: why that you should not mark your cans.

And now it's time 380 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 1: for a little training camp spotlight and it's presented by 381 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: you know, it is new era, and I know what 382 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: listeners are gonna do. They're gonna say, how do you 383 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: move on so quickly from sponsor to sponsor? Uh? I 384 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 1: was told I was forbidden from saying anything about our 385 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 1: previous sponsor. We have to there are no reverse gears 386 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,160 Speaker 1: in this tank and we're moving forward with new era. 387 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: It's a new era it's an it writes itself. And 388 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 1: you know what the training camps training camps spotlight is. Yeah, 389 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 1: you know what it's gonna be about. We're just talking 390 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: about him, but now we're gonna talk about the running 391 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: back situation. Uh, and we want to figure out and 392 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: we've talked about this a little earlier, uh in the spring, 393 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:26,360 Speaker 1: Greg about what there's a lot of haziness around that backfield. 394 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: Where are you coming down on it? Right now? I'm 395 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: coming down on it that Thomas Rawls is demand to 396 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: watch if you're in fantasy drafts. I know we don't 397 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: do a lot of fantasy uh advice here until our 398 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,439 Speaker 1: Fantasy Spectacular, which coming up in a few weeks. It's 399 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: entire week. By far, Mark Sessler's the least favorite part 400 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: of the calendar year is the Fantasy Spectacular League week 401 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: here on the Around the NFL podcast. It's coming next month. Yeah, 402 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: here's a preview. Uh. Number one, Thomas Rowles old teammate 403 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch. Why is he getting draft in the second round? 404 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 1: That's bananas. And it's even more bananas that Rawls is 405 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 1: getting taken four rounds after his teammate Eddie Lacey was 406 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: just a year ago that Rawls was coming off very 407 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 1: serious injury. People kind of forget Eddie Lacey is coming 408 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: off of ankle surgery. He hasn't been healthy all offseason. 409 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,400 Speaker 1: Rawls knows the system. People think they're just gonna hand 410 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: the team over to Eddie Lacey. He's not making that 411 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: much money. Rawles is under contract actually for a longer time. 412 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: And the bigger factor here is I just think Rawls 413 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: is a great player, and it took him a little 414 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 1: while to get back from injury. Last year. The offensive 415 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 1: line was not great. But I think given the chance, 416 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 1: he can be a better player than Eddie Lacey throughout 417 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 1: August and be your Week one starter for Seattle. You 418 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: just feel better about this this team at the running 419 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: back position than you did a year ago. Yeah, it's 420 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 1: good to have and c J process. The ship has 421 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 1: more direction and and like you said about Eddie Lacey, 422 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 1: where you go back a couple of years and people 423 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: had Eddie Lacey on there, never draft again, if we 424 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: if we can still be talking the fantasy world, Never, 425 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 1: you've already gone there, so we have to move forward. 426 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: He let me down. I'm never drafting him again. And 427 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 1: people think that Eddie's problem was just a he was 428 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: overweight and that it had nothing to do with being injured. 429 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 1: So if if those guys can both come back and 430 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 1: be healthy, you feel so much better about the Seahawks 431 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 1: at that position. Well, how about the idea of Greg 432 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: if you we're still talking fantasy, but we shouldn't. Rawls 433 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: and Laces maybe neither are great fantasy options just because 434 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 1: they could go fifty fifty, And maybe it's the best 435 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 1: for both of them to for it to be that way, 436 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: because neither guy has showing the ability to stay on 437 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: the field. I think Rawls has been has had bad luck. 438 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: Now you never know, but I mean he's had broken 439 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,640 Speaker 1: bones twice in a row. He had a broken leg 440 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: and came back and broke his leg again. That that's 441 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:40,159 Speaker 1: he's got bird bones, hear me that. You know that 442 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: sometimes you seem like your injury prone earlier in your career, 443 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: like a Matthew Stafford, and then suddenly you play seven 444 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: straight years because just because usually it's the other way no, 445 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 1: and you're you're showing early on that your brittle, you 446 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 1: got the bones of a boid, and then and then 447 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: you're out of the league in a few years. Thomas 448 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 1: Rawls has had some bad luck broken bones. If if 449 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: there's an injury, not that you would want to have 450 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: the injury yourself, but as a as for instance, a 451 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,120 Speaker 1: fantasy owner, that you want a guy to be coming 452 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,199 Speaker 1: back from, it's usually broken bones, because that's just kind 453 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: of random. You can you can return from that. Eddie 454 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: Lacey is a little different, and Rawles is getting taken 455 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:16,679 Speaker 1: in the ninth round, So the way I see it, 456 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,120 Speaker 1: they'll probably take turns. Maybe Eddie Lacy gets a run 457 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: where he's five or six games as the primary guy, 458 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 1: and then Rawls gets eight or nine games, and who 459 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 1: knows if they're healthy. You know you're gonna be happy 460 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: with eight or nine primary starter games from Rawls if 461 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: you draft him that late in your draft. N here's 462 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 1: the tenth round. Here's a hot take prediction. The procise 463 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: runs for more yards than any of them. I don't 464 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 1: like that. I feel good about it. It's pretty hot 465 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: the heat. I don't feel good about it being right. 466 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: But in terms of being a hot take at this point, 467 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 1: because remember went yards from scrimmage, I could buy it. 468 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 1: He could be, you know, a big factor in the 469 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: passing game and all that I'm just saying this time 470 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,919 Speaker 1: last year, the Kristen Michael Uh uh what did we 471 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: call back then? What was it last Summer Awakening? Yeah, 472 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,679 Speaker 1: the Awakening was in Old Bloom, And it just shows 473 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 1: that whatever logically makes sense, it doesn't always play out 474 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 1: that way. Field has been kind of hard to make 475 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 1: sense of ever since Marshawn kind of exited the picture. 476 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: Even the final Marshawn Lynch here was not great because 477 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 1: he was injured a lot, and it distracts from the 478 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 1: fact that, you know, offensive line wizard slash guru Tom 479 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 1: Cable hasn't actually coached a good offensive line for four years. 480 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: You give this guy, you know, you know, shooting guard 481 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: from the Pac ten and he can turn into a 482 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: starting left tackle. Yeah, but are they any good? No, 483 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 1: they're lying Their line stinks. I'll tell you one thing 484 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: about Tom Cable. He's a football coach. That's like his 485 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 1: number one claimed the Fame people were trying to get 486 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 1: him head coaching job. Yeah, I'll tell you he's a 487 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 1: He's a football coach with a troubling history of abuse. Yeah, 488 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 1: this guy breeves oxygen. He's certainly a person. Hey, this 489 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: guy who put him on the Field Levin guys on 490 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: one side, Leven on the other. Every time that's the 491 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: in a game spotlight presented by you know what it is? 492 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: Why is it so hard for me to move on? 493 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. We are the only part. We're maybe 494 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: the only entity that can where these Yeah you can, 495 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 1: we got bucket, you can wear them in anything. But 496 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 1: don't we become overly attached with the companies that sponsor us. 497 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 1: Maybe we need to. I was legitimately hurt when I 498 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: found out that I didn't get to do the last 499 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: read of our previous sponsor. Oh, Clai is putting on 500 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: the hat. Here we go. That's good. I'm all about 501 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: New York products. This is the reason to watch us. 502 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 1: It is a little bit annoying that claybron puts on 503 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: a ridiculous hat and he's still better looking than the 504 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,439 Speaker 1: other two guys in the room. All right, here we go, 505 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,879 Speaker 1: moving on? All right, Greg, greg you wrote a banger. 506 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: I enjoyed it. I had not read anything about the 507 00:25:54,600 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 1: NFL for approximately two weeks. I unplugged. I went. I 508 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:05,159 Speaker 1: was at Keith, Kansas, old Man and Deb We were 509 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 1: staying at their their house by the by the board, 510 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 1: by by the shore, and I just unplugged Jersey Shore 511 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: and uh. And then I picked up this piece of 512 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: writing from Greg headlined rams Comma Cults, Comma Panthers undergoing 513 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,880 Speaker 1: offseason identity change. Greg, that's an s e O headline. 514 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: You're a little better than that. I don't write the headlines. 515 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 1: That's not the headline that you see in the must 516 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: include as many team names as possible as well change. 517 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 1: He'll search on the site. It says new year, new 518 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 1: identity teams. Flipping the script. Look, I just send in 519 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: the copy. The editors put the headline up. But yes, 520 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: like Many a great movie from the eighties, I was 521 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: gonna say today it's about identity change. Before we get 522 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:57,199 Speaker 1: into identity changes and teams that are undergoing them. What 523 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: is the better still born Jason Bateman identity switch vehicle 524 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: you could choose between. Here are your options? The change 525 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 1: up two thousand eleven with uh, Ryan Reynolds. We'll give 526 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: you a why don't we do it? Purely on plot synopsis. 527 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: Dave is a married man with three kids and a 528 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 1: loving wife, and Mitch is a single man who is 529 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 1: at the prime of his sexual life. At all one 530 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 1: faithful night, while Mitch and Dave are peeing in a fountain, 531 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: lightning strikes and they switch bodies. Science. That's pretty good. 532 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: That's pretty good. Okay, So that was the changeup. And 533 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 1: now I will look up I identity thief Little Melissa McCarthy. 534 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: Al Right, here's this one. Mild mannered businessman Sandy Patterson. 535 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,880 Speaker 1: That's Mr. Bateman once again, travels from Denver to Florida 536 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 1: to confront the deceptively harmless looking woman who has been 537 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: living it up after stealing Sandy's identity. All right, what 538 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: do you guys think? But I like, I like which 539 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 1: one was better? The better? Stillborn Jason Bateman identity switch Vie. 540 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: You put that word still born in and it's just well, 541 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: they both you know, I don't. I don't think either 542 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: did well financially critically. I'll have to go with the 543 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,439 Speaker 1: changeup as the better one, because to me, this is 544 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: a genre and it hadn't been around for fifteen to 545 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: twenty years. Uh. You know, of course you had the 546 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: Kirk Cameron vehicle, like Father, like Son. I believe Back 547 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: in the Ages is a classic, and I feel like, 548 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: if you're gonna do this movie, uh, the lightning striking 549 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 1: while you're at the urinal. That's perfect way to get in. 550 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: I like I UM, I like doing some research here. 551 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 1: There's a Bateman movie called The Switch as well. Wait 552 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: to say, is this a Jason Bateman thing? Who is 553 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: your agent? Jason Bateman? Jason Bateman is awesome and he's 554 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: been having a great post arrested development. No one, no one. 555 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: I love moment. But let you know, let's count down 556 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 1: with the body switch comedies. That's all I'm saying. Let's 557 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: mix it up a little bit, by the way, and 558 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: I should apologize to Wlisa McCarthy. Her movie with Bateman 559 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: made like a hundred thirty five million dollars. All right, now, 560 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: so do we decide what was the decision? Yeah? I'm 561 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: with Greg. Body switch peeing is is the best way 562 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,959 Speaker 1: to go peeing in a fountain? And you just switch bodies? 563 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: Who comes up with it? Um? Excuse me? Uh? Here 564 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: we go. Let's start with the Los Angeles Rams and 565 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 1: uh and this is a team Greg and and again 566 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: Greg did write a banger. I But the point I 567 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 1: was trying to get to was that Greg broke this 568 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: all down in his most recent calum to check it out. Um, 569 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: but we were you know, if you've been watching All 570 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: or Nothing things, that team could not be further away 571 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: from contention or being in a good place. So what 572 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 1: do they do? They just blew it up. Uh And 573 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: and now they're giving the kid Jared Goff a fighting chance, 574 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: aren't they? They are? And I think that was the 575 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: entire I mean they did the easiest way to do 576 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 1: an identity change. I mean the Panthers kept their coach. Well, 577 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: being in a fountain is like, at least conventionally, is 578 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: an easy thing to do. I'm just saying, like the Panthers, 579 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: for they're trying to change identities without really changing their coaches, 580 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: without changing GM like that that can be complicated. Only 581 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: the Patriots can pull that up. The Rams did the 582 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: more conventional approach, which is get rid of the coach 583 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: who hasn't had a good passing game in his entire 584 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: five year run when he was in Los Angeles. You know, 585 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: this is their fourth offensive offense that they're learning in 586 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: four years. If if a guy was on the Rams 587 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: the whole time, stopped playing offense passively, I felt and 588 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: watching All or Nothing really cemented it underrated season by 589 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 1: the way, I think we'll talk about it some other 590 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: time that they were playing offense to just avoid making mistakes. 591 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: They were just hoping that the quarterbacks stays out of 592 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: the way so that the defense in the running game 593 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 1: can win the game and don't let the quarterback blow. 594 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: Like that is eighties football, That is Bears football that 595 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: Jeff Fisher was on on that team. It's like that 596 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: doesn't work anymore. And now you've got a coach in 597 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh who does a really good job. He kind of, 598 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: you know, floods the field three or four receivers. He 599 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 1: makes it easy for a quarterback to kind of identify 600 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: the mismatch. And it's just like point guards should be 601 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: very quarterback friendly, like short passes, open receivers. That's what 602 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 1: made Kirk cousins. So you say they're going to the 603 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 1: identity is going to go from passive to active attacking. 604 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 1: I don't know about it attacking because actually it's like 605 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: a short a short passing game. But I do think, yeah, 606 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,239 Speaker 1: they're trying to dictate a little more, and they're not 607 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 1: counting on Todd Gurley to be running the ball on 608 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: second and eight into a brick wall. You know, they're 609 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: not just gonna play things safe. I think they're gonna 610 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: be a little more aggressive, you know, drinking the cool 611 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: it you're drinking that McVay cooliate a little bit. I'm 612 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: more into Wade Phillips. I think he changes that team 613 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: quite a bit. But I do think they were so 614 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: bad last year, like almost to the point of being 615 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 1: I don't want, I don't want to say unprofessional, but 616 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: like there's they were way behind the modern NFL in 617 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 1: terms of the passing game. So if they can just 618 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 1: be like respectable, just like not be embarrassing, be the 619 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 1: best passing game it's like, then they can be a 620 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: lot better as a team. Okay, I can see not 621 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 1: having Greg Williams also as a significant alteration to your identity. 622 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: That could be good. You both also have to I 623 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: have to have to relieve yourselves at the same time. 624 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,719 Speaker 1: That's tricky, could be shy. That's a problem, all right, 625 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: Maybe it's not as easy, maybe not the easiest route. Um, 626 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: let's move on and don't talk about the Indianapolis Colts, 627 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: another team, Greg, that that you wrote about. Now, this 628 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 1: was a situation where you can do with different ways. 629 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 1: This time they swept out the brain trust and who 630 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: comes into town our friend, and then that's not easy 631 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 1: to figure out. He is the former Chiefs director of 632 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: football operations. His name is Chris Ballard. What's your favorite 633 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: type of frog? But guess what he asked questions. He 634 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: asked questions, and he asked the right questions. How do 635 00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: I fix this team? Clay bron and what you do? 636 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 1: I mean, they go out and they make the moves 637 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: that are necessary, and people feel like they've they've made 638 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 1: you go back to the Ryan Kelly decision to draft 639 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 1: last year, and they try to build off of that 640 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 1: and bring into surround luck with the right people. But 641 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: the question, you know goes to Greg is is what 642 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 1: is this offseason enough to to really alter the identity 643 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: of Well, we've we got Andrew. Let's see if he 644 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 1: can sling it around and get enough done to uh 645 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: get us a Super Bowl. Well, the changing identity to 646 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 1: me is that they're addressing the defense that is decayed 647 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 1: under Chuck Bogano and Grigson. People think of Chuck Bogano, 648 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: he's this kind of tough talking guy. He's a defensive coach. 649 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: Without really noticing their defense has been bad under Pagano. 650 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: It's and it's gotten worse and worse. It's it's been 651 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: an older group that isn't very good, which is like, 652 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 1: which is a bad combination. Like they're they've held onto 653 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: veterans that aren't performing, And so I really like how 654 00:33:55,840 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: decisive ballad has been. They signed so many players in 655 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 1: free agency that they might have seven to nine new starters. 656 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 1: They drafted a defensive player in each of the first 657 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 1: five rounds. They have twenty two new defensive players. WHOA, 658 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 1: that's a lot of that's a lot of new defensive players. 659 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: That is an outrageous amount too many. You can have 660 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: almost four new linebackers starters. All four linebackers starters should 661 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 1: be new. I don't think that's too many. Well, yeah, 662 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 1: here's the thing. It could work. It was nearly as 663 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: extreme last year with the Giants didn't free agency and 664 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,840 Speaker 1: it worked for the Giants. But that's you're asking a 665 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:34,879 Speaker 1: lot of things to fall into plays for these guys 666 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,879 Speaker 1: to immediately be able to play together. You're asking a lot, 667 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:39,839 Speaker 1: and then you're also not for nothing. On the other 668 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: side of the ball. You don't even know how your 669 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 1: quarterback is there. To me, I know this room seems 670 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 1: bullish on the Colts, and I'm fine with that, to me, 671 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: it still seems to be a lot and we don't 672 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: even know. I know Chris Ballard a lot of getting 673 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 1: a lot of good grades. Also, let's see how this 674 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: all works out. He's made a lot of changes. Sure, 675 00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 1: nobody can make a lot of changes. Is it gonna work? 676 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 1: I don't know, safety, corner, linebacker, back to back to 677 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 1: back in the draft, right. I guess what I like 678 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: is that he looked at the defense and just said, 679 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna spend this offseat like, our offense is in 680 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: pretty good shape overall. The offensive line could be better, 681 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:17,359 Speaker 1: but it's it's in better shape. I think that it's 682 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 1: been I'm gonna spend all these resources and see what sticks. 683 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: Jabaal Shear, John Simon Sean spends. You know, not all 684 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 1: of them are gonna work, but some of them are work. 685 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: Jonathan Hankins, they're bigger, their defensive coordinator. Do you know 686 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 1: who their defensive coordinators? It's not a name that people 687 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:39,720 Speaker 1: I do know? It actually no Ted mana Chino, he says. 688 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 1: He says, they're different. We're we're bigger, we're younger, were stronger. 689 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,799 Speaker 1: We've got some guys that are more the rule than 690 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: the exception around the league, where a year ago maybe 691 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 1: we had a few more exceptions. That's a shot fired 692 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: against Ryan Griggs and that that basically they had a bund, 693 00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 1: they had a like and the guys that just weren't 694 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: NFL caliber. What I think Ballard did, which is kind 695 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,399 Speaker 1: of reminds me a little bit of you know, when 696 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 1: the when Bill Belichick took over the Pages, he just 697 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: signed everyone with like, you know, actual NFL players and 698 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 1: just kind of figured out which stuck and kept those guys. 699 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: That's fair. You go back to June one, they get 700 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: Kristin Michael, but then they have to ensuingly put him 701 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: on injured reserve. But still they they were at and 702 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: they got Kristin Michael. Did do they stay? They stay 703 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 1: woke even though he leaves. I think once you were, 704 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 1: once you are woke, you you cannot go back to. 705 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 1: I mean, he's a good presence just to have on 706 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 1: your injured reserve list. I mean, think of the good 707 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: teams he's been on, Packers, Seahawks, great organizations general would 708 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 1: because it's true they're all winning teams. That would be 709 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 1: one of the greater storylines in sports history. If he 710 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 1: was like seventy years old, and teams were still signing 711 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 1: and and just putting him an arm because he had 712 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 1: this magic juice. Keep an eye on it, is all 713 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's all I'm saying. Just keep an eye 714 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 1: on it and see where he is. It's a little 715 00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: hard to imagine, you know, keep an eye on Kristin 716 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 1: Michael's juice? Did you think the Falcons are gonna blow 717 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl? I'm just saying, you never know in sports, 718 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:06,800 Speaker 1: to Michael could be on somebody's I R and for 719 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 1: to year. I know you didn't looking back. You know, 720 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 1: Dan was sitting behind behind us and at the Super 721 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 1: Bowl and his face was just going to ash and 722 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,879 Speaker 1: he was so excited. He was so excited at half 723 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,959 Speaker 1: time and then just slowly he's like, this isn't really 724 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: gonna happen, isn't know? It was a bad day for 725 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 1: the NFL, But it wasn't as bad a day as it. Oh. Yeah, 726 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 1: the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history by one of 727 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 1: its greatest prayers. What it's terrible? Was it comeback? Not 728 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,279 Speaker 1: everybody enjoyed it that much. Yeah, if it wasn't a 729 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 1: bad day for the NFL, it's a very bad day 730 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 1: for the NFL, But it wasn't as bad a day 731 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,560 Speaker 1: for me as it was for poor and Ludicrous, who 732 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 1: it remains one of my favorite NFL memories is he 733 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: was seated in the next box over from us, sitting 734 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 1: alone watching it all crumble, and I couldn't stop looking 735 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: at Ludicrous And by the end of the game, Chicken 736 00:37:56,080 --> 00:38:00,879 Speaker 1: and Beer for No. One Popular album, Yeah, I got 737 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,399 Speaker 1: you once upy the time they got you. Let's call 738 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 1: back there. It was good. You're gonna do Ludicrous on 739 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 1: the old throwbacks? I would I would love to do 740 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 1: a Ludicrous episode, maybe get looted in the garage. Um, 741 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 1: finally we'll talk about one more team, and and this team, 742 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 1: oh my goodness, they're just going all out there saying 743 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 1: nothing was working on either side of the ball, So 744 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:24,920 Speaker 1: this whole thing, we're just putting a dynamite stick and 745 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,400 Speaker 1: starting over. So yes, that would definitely be an identity 746 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: change the Niners. Greg. No team I I think has 747 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 1: changed more over the off season than the Niners. They're 748 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 1: a little under the radar because the the expectations are 749 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 1: so unbelievably low because the rosters bad. But they could 750 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: have new skill position, players starting at basically every position. 751 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,359 Speaker 1: You have Brian Hoyer, you you could have your top 752 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,840 Speaker 1: three wide receivers are all brand new. You could have 753 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 1: a you know, probably will have a different tight end. 754 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 1: And even Carlos Hide there was a report out there 755 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,759 Speaker 1: today that he hasn't even necessarily earned his starting job, 756 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 1: that that he's going to have to battle um for 757 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 1: it with Tim hi Tower in the rookie they drafted. 758 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 1: It's like just a team where it's like, Kyle Shanahan, 759 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 1: show us how smart you are. Because I think with 760 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: any other group of players, any other coach, people would 761 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:19,359 Speaker 1: just assume that they're going to be terrible. Maybe maybe 762 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,360 Speaker 1: people do assume that. I don't know. I feel like, uh, 763 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,759 Speaker 1: I feel like there's much better buzz around this franchise 764 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 1: and maybe and maybe that is everyone just it's kind 765 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:31,360 Speaker 1: of more. They're one of those teams I feel like 766 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,439 Speaker 1: the NFL is a little more fun. Whens are better 767 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:35,800 Speaker 1: and when they've just been the dregs of the league 768 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,959 Speaker 1: for several years now, Uh, they seem to be hitting 769 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 1: on some things with their new GM and the coach 770 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,200 Speaker 1: was a good hire, which surprised a lot of people 771 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 1: that they pulled that off potentially, I think there's a 772 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 1: reason for there to be optimism. Yeah, well, there's there's 773 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,799 Speaker 1: a commitment to at least a plan, right, because you've 774 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 1: you've wondered what the plan is out of Santa Clara 775 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 1: with jetting company for a long time, and there's there's 776 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 1: a coach as an interim coach, there's another coach, or 777 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 1: we committed, we're not committed. Well, now we got the 778 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 1: coach in the GM on six year contracts, and so 779 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,880 Speaker 1: let's say things are horrible. Brian Hoyer implodes, the defenses 780 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 1: is a sieve. You still know that there's people that 781 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 1: are going to be in place in two thousand and 782 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,799 Speaker 1: eighteen and they're going to try to do things. It's 783 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins on the horizon. There's a reason to be hopeful. 784 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,319 Speaker 1: It's like, that's a great point because Tom Sulo was 785 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 1: essentially on the hot seat after his introductor your press conference. 786 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,359 Speaker 1: I've never I've never I've never seen a coach so 787 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 1: openly doubted and people just figure like, yeah, probably one 788 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:32,760 Speaker 1: is done, which in the NFL, like that's not fair. 789 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 1: He's he seems like a nice guy and he just 790 00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,959 Speaker 1: was thrown into a bad situation and he wasn't gonna 791 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,920 Speaker 1: and overcome that. You know, Jimmy t is doing all 792 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:44,320 Speaker 1: right though, because the nature of coaching contracts, he basically 793 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,279 Speaker 1: was a gunner who was asked to rerange the deck 794 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 1: chairs on the Titanic, and he got like an eight 795 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,120 Speaker 1: million dollar going away gift. Oh yeah, I think he 796 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:56,400 Speaker 1: got a twenty million dollar contracts happening. It was somebody insane. 797 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 1: I think he's still making that money even though he's 798 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,040 Speaker 1: a defensive line coach of the league. With the Redskins, 799 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:05,399 Speaker 1: their defense has been a little People haven't talked about 800 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:06,920 Speaker 1: their devens. We don't We don't know much about their 801 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator, Joe Salah. But the talent is pretty good. 802 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: I mean, if you look at the talent. They drafted 803 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 1: Solomon Thomas uh in the first round. They drafted Ruben 804 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 1: Foster in the first round. Those are exciting picks. And 805 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 1: then you have Armstead Buckner, you bring in Earl Mitchell, 806 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:24,799 Speaker 1: You've got Navarro Bowman still around, You've got him Odd 807 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,560 Speaker 1: Brooks still around, like that front seven is better than 808 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:29,439 Speaker 1: a lot of front sevens out there. And you've you've 809 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 1: got Michael Bennett Um talking talking about this forty defensive 810 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,920 Speaker 1: line of guy that's in the you know that's a 811 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:41,240 Speaker 1: rival is shouting out players on the efensive line. Said, um, 812 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,440 Speaker 1: he's talking about ark Omstead. He said that he's not 813 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,799 Speaker 1: normal and he could be a defensive player of the year. 814 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 1: De Forrest Buckner excuse me, says he could be a 815 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: defensive player of the year just because that guy is 816 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,520 Speaker 1: a not normal guy and winning defensive player of the 817 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 1: Year is a not normal thing. You know, part of 818 00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:00,839 Speaker 1: you wonders, also, that's a bold statement in defense player there. 819 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: Maybe though people do love Armstead too. I mean, PFL 820 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 1: lows both of those guys. It's a different system there. 821 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 1: Now it's going to be playing you. Kind of part 822 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:11,879 Speaker 1: of you, though, wants to see how Ted Moncino would 823 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 1: work with that defense. It's like a little part of 824 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: you like, just what would Bonaccino cook up? What would 825 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 1: Bonaccino do? The cheery, let's get some wristbands made out, 826 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,600 Speaker 1: probably slam the former GM in the in the press. 827 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 1: I do want them to be interesting because I was 828 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 1: kind of good. I was excited for the chip Cally era. Um. 829 00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:33,799 Speaker 1: I thought maybe they would be interesting if nothing else, 830 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:35,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, it was a bit of a letter. I 831 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:38,839 Speaker 1: can't get worse right from the last two years that organization, 832 00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 1: even if they kind of stick again, as long as 833 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 1: there's some signs of progress, Uh, they're going in the 834 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,760 Speaker 1: right direction because they kind of hit rock bottom. Yeah 835 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 1: these past two years. Yeah, our producer, you know, for 836 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 1: these video shows, Alex Wilk, you know, we're gonna go 837 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 1: through division by division in terms of that was camping 838 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,600 Speaker 1: as per his demand. Yeah, and we and we started 839 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 1: with the NFC West. He's like, oh, let's get rid 840 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 1: of h Let's get rid of the trash divisions, you know, 841 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,520 Speaker 1: off the tops and people aren't really listening at this, 842 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking the NFC Wests got you know, the 843 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:11,280 Speaker 1: best team in the NFC for the last five years. 844 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 1: The Cardinals are an interesting team, and you know the 845 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 1: forty Niners and Rams are getting a little frisky. Great division. 846 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,400 Speaker 1: He's wearing a RAMS lanyard is what he's showing behind 847 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:23,760 Speaker 1: his Twitter avatar for the longest time was a Rams logo. Okay, 848 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:27,440 Speaker 1: he's a passionate and Sully reps the Seahawks. Yeah, he's 849 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,880 Speaker 1: not on the Boks, not on my But my point 850 00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 1: is the NFC West to me he's intriguing. I liked it. 851 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,360 Speaker 1: It would be even more intriguing at the Niners, weren't 852 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:38,319 Speaker 1: dog poop. I guess that's that's why he's the host. 853 00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:40,560 Speaker 1: Even see, he kind of brought it around. He brought 854 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 1: it back to where we started putting a bow for everybody. 855 00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 1: All right, let's let's wrap things up here. I just 856 00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 1: want to say thank you to Greg Rosenthal on the 857 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:52,200 Speaker 1: rest of the Shield softball team. Winning both games my 858 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:56,399 Speaker 1: offense and my absence, and uh doesn't make me think 859 00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 1: maybe maybe Skip needs to say where should Skippy in 860 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,600 Speaker 1: the lineup at this point? If you was playing well 861 00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:04,879 Speaker 1: before you left.

We're six and four. I 864 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: think we split, we get into the playoffs and and 865 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:14,479 Speaker 1: all you gotta do is get a ticket.
