Still at the league in rushing, I 35 00:01:53,468 --> 00:01:56,388 Speaker 2: was in nineteen forty six. So Kenny Washington, we see, 36 00:01:56,548 --> 00:01:57,588 Speaker 2: I feel like football's here. 37 00:01:57,868 --> 00:02:01,028 Speaker 5: Love, So he was running back. Injuries to running backs 38 00:02:01,028 --> 00:02:02,668 Speaker 5: still were happening in the fifties and sixties. 39 00:02:02,948 --> 00:02:05,148 Speaker 3: Hey, that man right anywhere? 40 00:02:07,548 --> 00:02:11,588 Speaker 5: An absolute pleasure this morning to be joined live for 41 00:02:11,708 --> 00:02:16,908 Speaker 5: me and there at the latest from around the league, specifically, 42 00:02:16,948 --> 00:02:19,668 Speaker 5: I teams have to get their rosters down to fifty 43 00:02:19,788 --> 00:02:22,668 Speaker 5: three guys by four pm Eastern today. It's kind of 44 00:02:22,668 --> 00:02:25,868 Speaker 5: a tough stretch in the NFL after preseason ends. What's 45 00:02:25,908 --> 00:02:26,468 Speaker 5: the latest? 46 00:02:27,828 --> 00:02:30,428 Speaker 7: Yeah, always a little bit of reality hitting today. Used 47 00:02:30,428 --> 00:02:32,548 Speaker 7: to be on a Saturday. Now it's on the Tuesday. 48 00:02:32,628 --> 00:02:35,788 Speaker 7: Four pm is the deadline today for teams to get 49 00:02:35,788 --> 00:02:38,908 Speaker 7: down from ninety players to fifty three players. So if 50 00:02:38,908 --> 00:02:41,148 Speaker 7: you do the math, and I certainly didn't, that is 51 00:02:41,148 --> 00:02:45,308 Speaker 7: a thousand players or so released today, many of whom 52 00:02:45,348 --> 00:02:46,668 Speaker 7: will never play football again. 53 00:02:46,748 --> 00:02:47,748 Speaker 4: Others will go on. 54 00:02:47,868 --> 00:02:51,348 Speaker 7: Sixteen man practice squad. There's also a series of other transactions, 55 00:02:51,348 --> 00:02:54,748 Speaker 7: including who's going to be on the non football injury list. 56 00:02:55,348 --> 00:02:57,948 Speaker 7: Hendon Hooker was one example yesterday from the Detroit Lions. 57 00:02:57,988 --> 00:03:00,188 Speaker 4: He will start there. Who is going to begin on 58 00:03:00,228 --> 00:03:01,268 Speaker 4: the pup list? 59 00:03:01,388 --> 00:03:04,628 Speaker 7: Kyler Murray, the Arizona Cardinals quarterback, he is going to 60 00:03:04,628 --> 00:03:07,668 Speaker 7: start there. Caleb Farley from the Tennessee Titans another one. 61 00:03:07,908 --> 00:03:10,268 Speaker 7: And then it is simply allowing teams to get their 62 00:03:10,388 --> 00:03:11,068 Speaker 7: roster set. 63 00:03:11,068 --> 00:03:12,028 Speaker 4: It is a big day. 64 00:03:12,268 --> 00:03:15,308 Speaker 7: It's not a fun day, but it's a consequential day. 65 00:03:15,548 --> 00:03:17,748 Speaker 7: And I would say what it also does is a 66 00:03:17,748 --> 00:03:20,308 Speaker 7: lot of times we see trades and as teams begin 67 00:03:20,668 --> 00:03:22,628 Speaker 7: to whittle down the roster to figure out what they 68 00:03:22,668 --> 00:03:25,188 Speaker 7: are missing, kind of the final touches of what they're 69 00:03:25,188 --> 00:03:27,908 Speaker 7: going to bring into the season. And that is why 70 00:03:27,988 --> 00:03:30,948 Speaker 7: all eyes are on Jonathan Taylor today. 71 00:03:31,348 --> 00:03:32,388 Speaker 4: The Colt star. 72 00:03:32,308 --> 00:03:34,388 Speaker 7: Running back who has been the news for more than 73 00:03:34,428 --> 00:03:36,748 Speaker 7: a month now, of course, requested a trade, then received 74 00:03:36,788 --> 00:03:37,868 Speaker 7: permission to. 75 00:03:37,948 --> 00:03:38,828 Speaker 3: Seek a trade. 76 00:03:39,028 --> 00:03:42,388 Speaker 7: I'm told there are at least two teams still interested 77 00:03:42,628 --> 00:03:45,788 Speaker 7: with offers to the Indianapolis Colts of Miami Dolphins. 78 00:03:45,628 --> 00:03:46,468 Speaker 3: Is one of those teams. 79 00:03:46,508 --> 00:03:48,628 Speaker 7: They have been long rumored to be a potential landing 80 00:03:48,668 --> 00:03:51,668 Speaker 7: spot for Jonathan Taylor. Time will tell if general manager 81 00:03:51,748 --> 00:03:54,468 Speaker 7: Chris Ballard pulls the trigger on this trade. For me, 82 00:03:54,948 --> 00:03:57,028 Speaker 7: just from what I know about the situation, hard to 83 00:03:57,108 --> 00:04:00,428 Speaker 7: imagine Taylor is returning to the coltson playing for them mothough, 84 00:04:00,468 --> 00:04:02,068 Speaker 7: I guess theoretically anything as. 85 00:04:01,908 --> 00:04:03,428 Speaker 3: Possible either way. 86 00:04:03,468 --> 00:04:07,588 Speaker 7: Today should be the long waited conclusion of the Jonathan 87 00:04:07,588 --> 00:04:08,268 Speaker 7: Taylor cider. 88 00:04:08,668 --> 00:04:11,788 Speaker 5: Okay, perhaps she good to know. It's why we started 89 00:04:11,868 --> 00:04:14,348 Speaker 5: our show with the Jonathan Taylor montage. Still kind of 90 00:04:14,348 --> 00:04:16,748 Speaker 5: odd to see him running around in a Colt's uniform, 91 00:04:16,788 --> 00:04:19,108 Speaker 5: which is crazy with the production he's had with the 92 00:04:19,148 --> 00:04:21,588 Speaker 5: Indianapolis Colts in the start of his career. Ian thank you. 93 00:04:21,668 --> 00:04:24,108 Speaker 5: We'll keep you on standby in case something happened in 94 00:04:24,108 --> 00:04:26,148 Speaker 5: the next couple of hours for us. So there's real 95 00:04:26,188 --> 00:04:29,388 Speaker 5: interest out there as Ian just said the Miami Dolphins 96 00:04:29,468 --> 00:04:31,868 Speaker 5: could go all in and try to trade for Jonathan Taylor. 97 00:04:31,908 --> 00:04:35,228 Speaker 5: Of course, the Dolphins were in on potentially signing Dalvin Cook, 98 00:04:35,268 --> 00:04:37,948 Speaker 5: who is grew up in the backyard of the Miami Dolphins, 99 00:04:37,988 --> 00:04:39,908 Speaker 5: so clearly they are in need of a running back. 100 00:04:40,308 --> 00:04:41,428 Speaker 5: Is Taylor the right fit. 101 00:04:41,788 --> 00:04:44,388 Speaker 2: I haven't been as close to this story as others 102 00:04:44,428 --> 00:04:47,348 Speaker 2: because I'm trying to track it from far. And I'll 103 00:04:47,348 --> 00:04:49,428 Speaker 2: tell you that when Ian says there's a second team, 104 00:04:49,508 --> 00:04:51,948 Speaker 2: that's when my ears per cp like, we know the Dolphins, 105 00:04:51,948 --> 00:04:54,548 Speaker 2: but then there's a second team. So I almost want 106 00:04:54,588 --> 00:04:55,588 Speaker 2: to take Ae put his feet to the. 107 00:04:55,588 --> 00:04:56,668 Speaker 4: Fire, and who's that team. 108 00:04:56,668 --> 00:04:58,908 Speaker 2: But there's a strategy for these teams to not be known, 109 00:04:58,948 --> 00:05:00,748 Speaker 2: because if it doesn't happen, then as well we could 110 00:05:00,788 --> 00:05:01,588 Speaker 2: have had this guy. 111 00:05:01,988 --> 00:05:02,708 Speaker 4: The Dolphins have. 112 00:05:02,668 --> 00:05:05,228 Speaker 2: Been mentioned for Dalvin Cook and sitting there. They did 113 00:05:05,228 --> 00:05:06,788 Speaker 2: not go for the Dolphin Cook trade, but in the 114 00:05:06,828 --> 00:05:10,188 Speaker 2: past they were also the team long rumored for Tyreek 115 00:05:10,268 --> 00:05:12,508 Speaker 2: Hill and they did swing and get them, and Bradley 116 00:05:12,588 --> 00:05:13,748 Speaker 2: Chubb and they did. 117 00:05:13,588 --> 00:05:14,388 Speaker 4: Swing and get them. 118 00:05:15,148 --> 00:05:17,708 Speaker 2: I think this puts the Dolphins in a lot better 119 00:05:17,788 --> 00:05:20,428 Speaker 2: position tomorrow than they are today. If they add Jonathan 120 00:05:20,468 --> 00:05:23,108 Speaker 2: Taylor to their Dolphins, and they actually have the salary 121 00:05:23,108 --> 00:05:25,548 Speaker 2: cap room to do it. The question is what does 122 00:05:25,588 --> 00:05:28,028 Speaker 2: Taylor want in this new contract that he's gonna ask 123 00:05:28,068 --> 00:05:30,788 Speaker 2: for if he gets traded. I've heard anything from thirteen 124 00:05:30,828 --> 00:05:34,388 Speaker 2: to fifteen million dollars a year now. McCaffrey makes about sixteen. 125 00:05:35,028 --> 00:05:37,388 Speaker 2: That's the standard. Mccafrey was traded for a second round 126 00:05:37,428 --> 00:05:38,348 Speaker 2: pick and a collection. 127 00:05:38,028 --> 00:05:40,028 Speaker 4: Of picks last year. Is that what's gonna take? 128 00:05:40,028 --> 00:05:42,548 Speaker 2: Do you put Jonathan Taylor in that Christian McCaffrey conversation, 129 00:05:42,588 --> 00:05:44,908 Speaker 2: because I'll tell you this, forty nine ers were solid 130 00:05:44,948 --> 00:05:48,028 Speaker 2: last year. They got Christian McCaffrey, they basically didn't lose 131 00:05:48,028 --> 00:05:51,508 Speaker 2: a game from that point on until the NFC Championship Game. 132 00:05:51,868 --> 00:05:54,548 Speaker 2: Does Jonathan Taylor put the Dolphins over the hump? I 133 00:05:54,548 --> 00:05:58,468 Speaker 2: think he does. Look right now at their salary cat situation. 134 00:05:58,788 --> 00:06:01,748 Speaker 2: It doesn't cripple them, and they can do it. They 135 00:06:01,788 --> 00:06:04,228 Speaker 2: can afford it. So who am I to say, Yeah, 136 00:06:04,228 --> 00:06:06,388 Speaker 2: it's not my money and it's not my salary cap. 137 00:06:06,428 --> 00:06:08,748 Speaker 2: And Chris Grears at GM who's very disciplined in what 138 00:06:08,788 --> 00:06:10,508 Speaker 2: he pays and who he pays, and they've walked away 139 00:06:10,508 --> 00:06:11,868 Speaker 2: from Dalvin Cook already this summer. 140 00:06:11,948 --> 00:06:13,628 Speaker 3: But I don't know. 141 00:06:13,628 --> 00:06:15,428 Speaker 2: If you're looking at the AFC East right now and 142 00:06:15,428 --> 00:06:17,548 Speaker 2: you're looking at the Jets and you're looking at the Bills, 143 00:06:17,588 --> 00:06:19,028 Speaker 2: and you know the Patriots are going to be better, 144 00:06:19,068 --> 00:06:20,668 Speaker 2: does this not put you right at the front of 145 00:06:20,708 --> 00:06:22,548 Speaker 2: the line and say, oh, we're adding the best running 146 00:06:22,588 --> 00:06:23,388 Speaker 2: backs in football. 147 00:06:23,748 --> 00:06:26,348 Speaker 4: If I'm the Dolphins and I'm not, I say go 148 00:06:26,468 --> 00:06:28,028 Speaker 4: for it. I also am here for the content. 149 00:06:28,108 --> 00:06:30,148 Speaker 2: And if Tuesday is the deadline and Ian's saying that 150 00:06:30,188 --> 00:06:32,548 Speaker 2: there's a better chance he's traded than he stays, why 151 00:06:32,588 --> 00:06:33,388 Speaker 2: not go to Miami. 152 00:06:33,908 --> 00:06:36,108 Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm a little apprehensive on it. And when you 153 00:06:36,148 --> 00:06:39,668 Speaker 8: say the words go all in for Jonathan Taylor and 154 00:06:39,748 --> 00:06:42,308 Speaker 8: to your point, however many picks your trading or whatever 155 00:06:42,388 --> 00:06:44,908 Speaker 8: contract you're getting. I look at this Miami Dolphins team 156 00:06:44,948 --> 00:06:47,948 Speaker 8: and the key is to a staying healthy and beyond that. 157 00:06:48,028 --> 00:06:51,428 Speaker 8: Last year Mike McDaniel was running thirty first and rushing attempts. 158 00:06:51,468 --> 00:06:53,828 Speaker 8: He wasn't even handing the ball off to know whether 159 00:06:54,068 --> 00:06:56,948 Speaker 8: there was a strong running game with Mostart and Jeff Wilson. 160 00:06:57,268 --> 00:06:59,068 Speaker 8: And then you go even further back and you look 161 00:06:59,068 --> 00:07:00,908 Speaker 8: at his time in San Francisco, he was the one 162 00:07:00,948 --> 00:07:03,708 Speaker 8: game specially, he was the offensive coordinator, and each year 163 00:07:03,748 --> 00:07:06,228 Speaker 8: he was there, there was a different guy that led 164 00:07:06,268 --> 00:07:08,868 Speaker 8: them in rushing. And then in nineteen and twenty one 165 00:07:09,068 --> 00:07:10,588 Speaker 8: they ended up in a super Bowl. One year in 166 00:07:10,588 --> 00:07:13,628 Speaker 8: their conference championship, and they had a ton of success 167 00:07:13,788 --> 00:07:16,868 Speaker 8: with different guys running the ball. That didn't take just 168 00:07:16,988 --> 00:07:19,428 Speaker 8: one guy to come in and carry the entire load 169 00:07:19,468 --> 00:07:21,988 Speaker 8: for them. So I look at a Mike McDaniel led offense, 170 00:07:22,148 --> 00:07:24,708 Speaker 8: I think it's less about making sure a guy like 171 00:07:24,788 --> 00:07:27,508 Speaker 8: Jonathan Taylor who's there. But don't get me wrong, Jonathan 172 00:07:27,508 --> 00:07:29,868 Speaker 8: Taylor is an absolute stud, the type of superstar you 173 00:07:29,868 --> 00:07:31,828 Speaker 8: wore want on your team if you can get him 174 00:07:31,868 --> 00:07:33,908 Speaker 8: at the right price. Okay, But when you say the 175 00:07:33,948 --> 00:07:36,948 Speaker 8: words go all in, that to me is a little 176 00:07:37,028 --> 00:07:38,908 Speaker 8: terrifying because I look at them. They went all in 177 00:07:38,988 --> 00:07:39,748 Speaker 8: for Tyreek Hill. 178 00:07:39,908 --> 00:07:41,268 Speaker 3: You have Jaalen Waddle there. 179 00:07:41,428 --> 00:07:43,908 Speaker 8: You have guys that Tua can spread the ball around 180 00:07:43,948 --> 00:07:45,708 Speaker 8: and get the rock to and be able to have 181 00:07:46,068 --> 00:07:48,628 Speaker 8: a good offense. Last year they were one of the 182 00:07:48,668 --> 00:07:52,468 Speaker 8: best offenses in the NFL with Tua in there at quarterback. 183 00:07:52,588 --> 00:07:54,828 Speaker 8: So that's the only thing I'm looking at and is 184 00:07:54,868 --> 00:07:56,068 Speaker 8: nothing against Jonathan Taylor. 185 00:07:56,068 --> 00:07:57,948 Speaker 3: I think he's one of the best running backs. 186 00:07:57,948 --> 00:07:58,468 Speaker 4: So we look at that. 187 00:07:58,468 --> 00:08:00,388 Speaker 2: Full screen again and all those tis. It's a good 188 00:08:00,428 --> 00:08:01,908 Speaker 2: look when you get Carlos Hide and you get all 189 00:08:01,908 --> 00:08:05,148 Speaker 2: that interesting. I look at that and were all Shanahan 190 00:08:05,188 --> 00:08:09,308 Speaker 2: teams right when they got McCaffrey though their off the lid. 191 00:08:09,468 --> 00:08:11,468 Speaker 8: So you say, that's the counter to that, And they 192 00:08:11,468 --> 00:08:13,588 Speaker 8: didn't win a super Bowl like you're saying. They got 193 00:08:13,668 --> 00:08:16,308 Speaker 8: McCaffrey and that year and they had as far as 194 00:08:16,308 --> 00:08:18,308 Speaker 8: the nineteen they were in the Super Bowl in that 195 00:08:18,348 --> 00:08:18,748 Speaker 8: game with. 196 00:08:19,468 --> 00:08:21,428 Speaker 4: Five hundred yards, and I guess the Packers a. 197 00:08:21,428 --> 00:08:25,068 Speaker 1: Very good chance to win that game if he does 198 00:08:25,428 --> 00:08:28,788 Speaker 1: that well with Elijah Mitchell, who I like, what if 199 00:08:28,788 --> 00:08:32,628 Speaker 1: he had had Derrick Henry or Christian McCaffrey or Jonathan Taylor, 200 00:08:32,748 --> 00:08:35,348 Speaker 1: maybe it's like even be even better than that. So 201 00:08:35,428 --> 00:08:37,748 Speaker 1: that's the idea, that's the all, And that's the tempion 202 00:08:37,828 --> 00:08:40,588 Speaker 1: is like, Wow, he did great having oatmeal, but what 203 00:08:40,668 --> 00:08:42,188 Speaker 1: if we made him some waffles like this is you 204 00:08:42,228 --> 00:08:44,788 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, that's Jason's point. 205 00:08:44,828 --> 00:08:46,828 Speaker 5: They won games despite. 206 00:08:46,508 --> 00:08:48,308 Speaker 8: That, Yeah, they were in not one games. They were 207 00:08:48,348 --> 00:08:50,468 Speaker 8: in the super Bowl, in the conference championship game. 208 00:08:50,588 --> 00:08:52,748 Speaker 4: Yeah, but maybe they get the ones. Who knows. 209 00:08:52,948 --> 00:08:55,308 Speaker 1: There's a ceiling question. I think it's a it's a 210 00:08:55,348 --> 00:08:57,428 Speaker 1: tough one and it's right now. 211 00:08:57,548 --> 00:09:00,068 Speaker 4: Is like, screw it season, Like you know what I'm saying. 212 00:09:00,428 --> 00:09:03,508 Speaker 1: We played our preseason games, we got the certain amount 213 00:09:03,508 --> 00:09:04,348 Speaker 1: of days till the opener. 214 00:09:05,108 --> 00:09:06,788 Speaker 4: Screw it. Let's just go out and buy something. 215 00:09:06,908 --> 00:09:09,548 Speaker 1: Let's buy something because look at the locker room, look 216 00:09:09,548 --> 00:09:11,188 Speaker 1: at the group, look at the tape that we put 217 00:09:11,188 --> 00:09:11,788 Speaker 1: on preseason. 218 00:09:12,148 --> 00:09:14,028 Speaker 4: Do we got a team like, can we win the AFC? 219 00:09:14,148 --> 00:09:16,308 Speaker 4: We can do it with this group? I don't know. 220 00:09:16,388 --> 00:09:18,868 Speaker 1: Then let's go get something and you go get Jonathan 221 00:09:18,868 --> 00:09:20,588 Speaker 1: Taylor and you bring him in and it's a splash 222 00:09:20,628 --> 00:09:22,468 Speaker 1: and you ride him and maybe it doesn't work out, 223 00:09:22,548 --> 00:09:25,308 Speaker 1: or maybe his ankle isn't great, or maybe he falls off, 224 00:09:25,308 --> 00:09:26,788 Speaker 1: and in two years from I were saying, well, that 225 00:09:26,828 --> 00:09:27,668 Speaker 1: was a huge mistake. 226 00:09:28,028 --> 00:09:29,148 Speaker 4: I don't know, you took a shot. 227 00:09:29,628 --> 00:09:32,348 Speaker 1: I always got to come back to those RAMS teams 228 00:09:32,388 --> 00:09:34,468 Speaker 1: that just said we're gonna try it. We're gonna bring 229 00:09:34,468 --> 00:09:37,348 Speaker 1: in everybody, and it may not work out. It's gonna 230 00:09:37,388 --> 00:09:39,508 Speaker 1: be a risk. But we had a parade and won 231 00:09:39,588 --> 00:09:41,468 Speaker 1: and it did work out, and then afterwards, now the 232 00:09:41,548 --> 00:09:43,668 Speaker 1: Rams aren't that good and they're kind of recircling the 233 00:09:43,708 --> 00:09:44,628 Speaker 1: wagons and everything. 234 00:09:45,148 --> 00:09:46,988 Speaker 4: It's just really hard this time of year. 235 00:09:46,828 --> 00:09:49,068 Speaker 1: To say, I don't know if it would be prudent 236 00:09:49,108 --> 00:09:51,588 Speaker 1: to bring in Jonathan Taylor financially, I don't know. 237 00:09:51,628 --> 00:09:54,228 Speaker 4: Don't lose your first game by three touchdowns. Run the ball. 238 00:09:54,668 --> 00:09:56,588 Speaker 1: I just think the Dolphins are one of those teams that, like, 239 00:09:56,948 --> 00:09:58,428 Speaker 1: I don't know, they finished nine to eighth this year 240 00:09:58,428 --> 00:09:59,908 Speaker 1: and get in the wild card and lose again. It's like, 241 00:09:59,948 --> 00:10:02,308 Speaker 1: are you happy you could have had eleven wins? Maybe 242 00:10:02,348 --> 00:10:04,988 Speaker 1: if you brought in a better player. Very difficult to 243 00:10:05,028 --> 00:10:07,828 Speaker 1: get me personally this time of year, especially to be like, 244 00:10:08,268 --> 00:10:10,268 Speaker 1: I don't know, I think we'll go with what we got. 245 00:10:10,548 --> 00:10:13,828 Speaker 1: I would do it. And to the question of like 246 00:10:14,108 --> 00:10:15,948 Speaker 1: is he special or is he just like it's a 247 00:10:16,028 --> 00:10:19,228 Speaker 1: running back, it's another guy. I brought up the stat 248 00:10:19,268 --> 00:10:21,628 Speaker 1: last year last week that if you look at guys 249 00:10:21,668 --> 00:10:24,268 Speaker 1: to start their career just yards per carry, he is 250 00:10:24,308 --> 00:10:28,108 Speaker 1: looking down on Eric Dickerson, on Barry Sanders, on Emmitt Smith, 251 00:10:28,228 --> 00:10:30,788 Speaker 1: like it is a special, special thing that he has 252 00:10:30,828 --> 00:10:33,388 Speaker 1: done with some offenses that were not exactly cooking. 253 00:10:33,428 --> 00:10:35,468 Speaker 4: You give them McDaniel ingenuity. I think it would work. 254 00:10:35,508 --> 00:10:37,108 Speaker 4: I would do it, I really would. And why not 255 00:10:37,268 --> 00:10:39,148 Speaker 4: with that? You're the Dolphins, Go try to win if 256 00:10:39,188 --> 00:10:41,548 Speaker 4: you play playoff games since two thousand, let's change it 257 00:10:41,628 --> 00:10:42,148 Speaker 4: up a little bit. 258 00:10:42,228 --> 00:10:42,988 Speaker 3: Shake the cage. 259 00:10:43,228 --> 00:10:45,028 Speaker 5: You know it's true. You hear the second team. I 260 00:10:45,068 --> 00:10:46,828 Speaker 5: try to work my way around the country and I 261 00:10:46,908 --> 00:10:48,868 Speaker 5: like kind of flicker my eyes out west and then 262 00:10:48,908 --> 00:10:51,148 Speaker 5: I come full circle and I hate to be the 263 00:10:51,228 --> 00:10:53,788 Speaker 5: damper here, but I come back to Indianapolis, and if 264 00:10:53,868 --> 00:10:56,988 Speaker 5: I were Shane Steiken, I would be I'd be mad. 265 00:10:57,228 --> 00:10:59,308 Speaker 5: I'd be really mad as to how this was handled. 266 00:10:59,348 --> 00:11:00,908 Speaker 5: You go out and you ask me to draft a 267 00:11:00,988 --> 00:11:04,908 Speaker 5: rookie quarterback who is inexperienced yet raw and has a 268 00:11:05,068 --> 00:11:08,028 Speaker 5: huge upside, you hope, but you do. So you take 269 00:11:08,068 --> 00:11:10,428 Speaker 5: this job. You would think on the predication that you 270 00:11:10,508 --> 00:11:14,348 Speaker 5: have a star running back, and then this thing totally unfolds. 271 00:11:14,588 --> 00:11:16,948 Speaker 5: Well after Shane Styken gets hired. I mean you have 272 00:11:16,988 --> 00:11:20,068 Speaker 5: to imagine, is he in his office like bound and gagged, 273 00:11:20,108 --> 00:11:22,148 Speaker 5: like don't do it, don't do it? Like what I 274 00:11:22,148 --> 00:11:23,548 Speaker 5: can't imagine what Styke's feeling. 275 00:11:23,708 --> 00:11:25,988 Speaker 2: You were watching the preseason game too, Jason Thursday. You're 276 00:11:26,028 --> 00:11:28,908 Speaker 2: talking on Friday like you're watching that Richardson offense and 277 00:11:28,948 --> 00:11:30,948 Speaker 2: it looks exciting. At points, Whe're like, can you imagine 278 00:11:31,068 --> 00:11:33,948 Speaker 2: jun Taylor Jamie to your point a toe Hunderson right, 279 00:11:34,068 --> 00:11:35,588 Speaker 2: he wants fifteen million dollars. 280 00:11:36,548 --> 00:11:39,028 Speaker 5: But that's not even the issue. It's it's what happened 281 00:11:39,068 --> 00:11:42,748 Speaker 5: in the last four weeks that soured the relationship. It's 282 00:11:42,748 --> 00:11:44,468 Speaker 5: not even a long term deal for me at this point. 283 00:11:44,468 --> 00:11:48,508 Speaker 5: It's like doing addressing the thing. The elephant in the 284 00:11:48,548 --> 00:11:50,468 Speaker 5: room is that you that Jimmer Say came out and 285 00:11:50,548 --> 00:11:53,268 Speaker 5: just said odd things to damp in a relationship with 286 00:11:53,308 --> 00:11:55,188 Speaker 5: a player. You're one of your star players in a 287 00:11:55,188 --> 00:11:58,068 Speaker 5: locker room where you have fifty two other guys that 288 00:11:58,308 --> 00:12:00,108 Speaker 5: you know have to you want to respect your boss 289 00:12:00,148 --> 00:12:01,788 Speaker 5: and work for him. What would it be like to 290 00:12:01,828 --> 00:12:02,828 Speaker 5: be in a locker room like that? 291 00:12:02,908 --> 00:12:05,668 Speaker 8: I think whenever it comes to contract stuff, at the 292 00:12:05,788 --> 00:12:08,348 Speaker 8: end of the day, Schrager may be doing. 293 00:12:08,188 --> 00:12:09,228 Speaker 3: His contract with NFL. 294 00:12:09,268 --> 00:12:12,508 Speaker 8: Now when my contract comes up as me and you talking, 295 00:12:12,628 --> 00:12:14,908 Speaker 8: so I think you may look at that and be like, dang. 296 00:12:14,708 --> 00:12:15,988 Speaker 4: That's messed up what they did to JT. 297 00:12:16,348 --> 00:12:18,548 Speaker 8: And then they come with you and they're like, all right, here's. 298 00:12:18,308 --> 00:12:19,908 Speaker 3: The number I want to pay. 299 00:12:20,588 --> 00:12:21,468 Speaker 5: Principal man. 300 00:12:21,548 --> 00:12:23,868 Speaker 8: JT's gonna ball in Miami, but I'm gonna stay right 301 00:12:23,868 --> 00:12:25,628 Speaker 8: here in India and get my money. So I think 302 00:12:25,668 --> 00:12:27,588 Speaker 8: that's the part of it where I'm not gonna not 303 00:12:27,668 --> 00:12:29,868 Speaker 8: do a contract because they didn't do one with my teammate. 304 00:12:29,908 --> 00:12:33,228 Speaker 8: You understand the business side of it, But the Dolphins, 305 00:12:33,428 --> 00:12:35,508 Speaker 8: if you're gonna go all in on JT, Dalvin Cook 306 00:12:35,628 --> 00:12:36,268 Speaker 8: was right there. 307 00:12:36,308 --> 00:12:37,468 Speaker 3: He was right in Miami. 308 00:12:37,508 --> 00:12:39,388 Speaker 8: And I'm not saying those guys are the same player, 309 00:12:39,428 --> 00:12:43,028 Speaker 8: different points in their career, different price tags as well. 310 00:12:43,268 --> 00:12:46,308 Speaker 8: Why not go and go get Dalvin Cook? Why wait, 311 00:12:46,348 --> 00:12:49,068 Speaker 8: and I'll give a ton more to get Jonathan Taylor. 312 00:12:49,148 --> 00:12:49,908 Speaker 3: That's the only thing for. 313 00:12:49,868 --> 00:12:51,388 Speaker 4: Who do you think the mystery team is? 314 00:12:51,668 --> 00:12:54,228 Speaker 2: I really went on no, right, I know, But like 315 00:12:54,268 --> 00:12:57,268 Speaker 2: when he says there's another team that's having talks now, 316 00:12:57,468 --> 00:13:00,788 Speaker 2: Stephen Holder, who's great at ESPN, came out and said 317 00:13:01,108 --> 00:13:05,508 Speaker 2: six teams were in the talks. Two of them have 318 00:13:05,628 --> 00:13:07,628 Speaker 2: been like very much in the talks, and the Dolphins 319 00:13:07,628 --> 00:13:08,068 Speaker 2: are one of them. 320 00:13:08,108 --> 00:13:08,948 Speaker 4: So there's another. 321 00:13:08,708 --> 00:13:11,788 Speaker 5: One, Peter, what's up the Broncos running backs? 322 00:13:11,908 --> 00:13:13,268 Speaker 4: Eacles have fifty running backs? 323 00:13:13,388 --> 00:13:16,588 Speaker 2: Broncos is interesting. They don't you know they saved Javonte 324 00:13:16,588 --> 00:13:20,788 Speaker 2: williamsaj p Ryan who they added the Broncos. Also, interestingly, 325 00:13:20,988 --> 00:13:23,548 Speaker 2: as you talked about the Broncos, every team's making cuts. 326 00:13:23,588 --> 00:13:25,268 Speaker 2: The Broncos have not made a single cut yet. They're 327 00:13:25,268 --> 00:13:28,188 Speaker 2: gonna cut thirty players at once, and it's like that's 328 00:13:28,308 --> 00:13:30,988 Speaker 2: that's just a different approach to it. So Broncos are interesting, 329 00:13:31,148 --> 00:13:33,268 Speaker 2: Eagles are interesting, cults are interesting. 330 00:13:33,948 --> 00:13:35,108 Speaker 4: Rights. 331 00:13:35,188 --> 00:13:37,068 Speaker 8: My original take is that he's lined up in the 332 00:13:37,388 --> 00:13:38,068 Speaker 8: backfield weekend. 333 00:13:39,188 --> 00:13:41,788 Speaker 1: You're estrating out this very green quarterback. Don't you want 334 00:13:41,868 --> 00:13:43,388 Speaker 1: him there just to protect Richardson. 335 00:13:43,588 --> 00:13:46,228 Speaker 4: It's also weird with the ownership because he speaks so much, 336 00:13:46,308 --> 00:13:48,188 Speaker 4: and like there's so much money going around. 337 00:13:48,268 --> 00:13:49,988 Speaker 1: It's like you don't want to pay Jonathan Taylor, but 338 00:13:49,988 --> 00:13:52,628 Speaker 1: you'll spend a half million bucks on John Badam's based drums, 339 00:13:52,708 --> 00:13:53,988 Speaker 1: like for your collection. 340 00:13:54,228 --> 00:13:56,068 Speaker 4: Like, maybe we pay the running back and bring him in. 341 00:13:56,148 --> 00:13:59,668 Speaker 4: It's a strange dynamic. Why not? I don't know, it's expensive. Again, 342 00:13:59,708 --> 00:14:00,348 Speaker 4: he's a running back. 343 00:14:00,588 --> 00:14:04,748 Speaker 2: Ringo Star's drumstick all right, Stevie, Nick Mike Standers, he's. 344 00:14:04,668 --> 00:14:05,868 Speaker 4: In here, but no running back. 345 00:14:11,308 --> 00:14:13,628 Speaker 3: Back his picket over the middle of the passes caught. 346 00:14:13,908 --> 00:14:16,468 Speaker 9: That is Pickens a sack, stepping a man and getting 347 00:14:16,508 --> 00:14:20,588 Speaker 9: into the end zone. Pearl Pittsburgh Steelers touchdown. Pickens made 348 00:14:20,668 --> 00:14:22,348 Speaker 9: the miss and Pickett. 349 00:14:22,028 --> 00:14:25,868 Speaker 3: Fired his strike shotgunsnap. Here's Kenny throwing it to the 350 00:14:25,988 --> 00:14:26,388 Speaker 3: end zone. 351 00:14:26,468 --> 00:14:30,468 Speaker 9: Fire with Buick down the mettle Baro, Pittsburgh touchdown. The 352 00:14:30,948 --> 00:14:33,988 Speaker 9: tight ends for pip State just went right down the 353 00:14:34,268 --> 00:14:37,068 Speaker 9: hash mark and Kenny hit it perfectly, throwing down the 354 00:14:37,108 --> 00:14:40,108 Speaker 9: near side. Mind for Pickens catch an inside in a 355 00:14:40,188 --> 00:14:43,748 Speaker 9: five yard line want to play by George Dickens and 356 00:14:43,908 --> 00:14:45,788 Speaker 9: won a pass by Kenny Pickett. 357 00:14:48,708 --> 00:14:50,508 Speaker 2: Kenny Pickett might have won the preseason. 358 00:14:50,588 --> 00:14:52,188 Speaker 4: That was our common yesterday. 359 00:14:52,268 --> 00:14:56,228 Speaker 2: After throwing yep for all those touchdown passes and playing 360 00:14:56,388 --> 00:14:58,708 Speaker 2: three different games, and there's a lot of buzz and 361 00:14:58,788 --> 00:15:00,388 Speaker 2: hype and excitement about him. Then again you have to 362 00:15:00,508 --> 00:15:01,428 Speaker 2: ten prefetations. 363 00:15:01,988 --> 00:15:02,388 Speaker 3: It is the. 364 00:15:02,468 --> 00:15:06,668 Speaker 2: Preseason time for in reality my Progressive Insurance. Here's how 365 00:15:06,708 --> 00:15:08,948 Speaker 2: it works. I say a statement, my three co hosts 366 00:15:08,948 --> 00:15:10,308 Speaker 2: will tell me whether they agree or disagree. 367 00:15:10,308 --> 00:15:13,068 Speaker 4: You at home can play as well. Everybody ready, all 368 00:15:13,148 --> 00:15:13,508 Speaker 4: right go. 369 00:15:13,788 --> 00:15:16,748 Speaker 2: When asked about playing his starters in the preseason, Steelers 370 00:15:16,828 --> 00:15:20,588 Speaker 2: head coach Mike Tomlin dropped in all time Tomlinism. Apparently 371 00:15:20,668 --> 00:15:23,428 Speaker 2: it comes from Bill Parcells. Take a listen to what 372 00:15:23,548 --> 00:15:26,308 Speaker 2: Tomlin said about playing your starters in the preseason. 373 00:15:28,068 --> 00:15:29,388 Speaker 3: I don't really need validation. 374 00:15:29,508 --> 00:15:32,508 Speaker 5: I just think it's difficult to box without sparring, and 375 00:15:32,948 --> 00:15:35,988 Speaker 5: so you know, preseason opportunity for us to spar and 376 00:15:36,028 --> 00:15:40,308 Speaker 5: sharpen our sword for the battle. I don't look to 377 00:15:40,428 --> 00:15:42,708 Speaker 5: box without Tomlin. 378 00:15:43,268 --> 00:15:45,868 Speaker 2: Steelers first team offense got plenty of action and they 379 00:15:45,908 --> 00:15:46,788 Speaker 2: were amazing. 380 00:15:46,868 --> 00:15:49,548 Speaker 4: They're bring it against second and third team defenses, yet 381 00:15:49,788 --> 00:15:50,988 Speaker 4: still look at this picket. 382 00:15:51,788 --> 00:15:52,148 Speaker 3: Awesome. 383 00:15:52,228 --> 00:15:55,708 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, coaches like Sean McVay and Brandon Staley and Zach Taylor, they. 384 00:15:55,708 --> 00:15:58,468 Speaker 4: Don't play their starters over the preseason. They keep them 385 00:15:58,508 --> 00:16:00,628 Speaker 4: on ice and say we'll just wait for the regular season. 386 00:16:00,668 --> 00:16:04,348 Speaker 2: Here is the statement, Mike Tomlin, Steelers after this amazing 387 00:16:04,548 --> 00:16:07,108 Speaker 2: pas and performance gives you reason to believe that they 388 00:16:07,148 --> 00:16:11,268 Speaker 2: will be the most improved team in the AFC in 389 00:16:11,548 --> 00:16:12,908 Speaker 2: or we out there pretty good last year. 390 00:16:12,988 --> 00:16:16,708 Speaker 8: Jason, I've loved watching the Steelers throughout the preseason, the pickings, 391 00:16:16,788 --> 00:16:18,948 Speaker 8: the pickets in practice and games has all been a 392 00:16:19,028 --> 00:16:22,028 Speaker 8: ton of fun. Most improved though, to your point, they 393 00:16:22,068 --> 00:16:25,028 Speaker 8: won nine games last year, they just missed the playoffs. 394 00:16:25,068 --> 00:16:27,108 Speaker 8: That they win two more games this year and they're 395 00:16:27,108 --> 00:16:29,468 Speaker 8: in the playoffs, they possibly win the division whatever happens, 396 00:16:29,788 --> 00:16:32,308 Speaker 8: I'm going with the Houston Texans as an opportunity to 397 00:16:32,428 --> 00:16:37,108 Speaker 8: be the most improved AFC team. Three wins a season ago. 398 00:16:37,228 --> 00:16:39,228 Speaker 8: You go out there, you bring in Will Anderson Junior, 399 00:16:39,268 --> 00:16:41,948 Speaker 8: bring in CJ. Strou You get Tank Dell on that 400 00:16:42,068 --> 00:16:43,828 Speaker 8: team as well. You bring in a guy like Robert 401 00:16:43,868 --> 00:16:45,948 Speaker 8: Woods at veteran to help lead the room. I think 402 00:16:46,028 --> 00:16:48,188 Speaker 8: this is a team they may double their win total. 403 00:16:48,268 --> 00:16:50,268 Speaker 8: It may only be six, but to me, that is 404 00:16:50,468 --> 00:16:52,828 Speaker 8: much more improved than winning a few more games of 405 00:16:52,908 --> 00:16:55,748 Speaker 8: Pittsburgh Steelers team that was good last year and Kenny 406 00:16:55,788 --> 00:16:57,668 Speaker 8: Picketts started to take off at the end of the year, 407 00:16:57,948 --> 00:16:59,708 Speaker 8: has some comeback wins in the fourth quarter. So I 408 00:16:59,748 --> 00:17:02,428 Speaker 8: think this Houston Texans team, the organization has been in 409 00:17:02,468 --> 00:17:04,308 Speaker 8: turmoil for the last few years. I think at the 410 00:17:04,508 --> 00:17:06,828 Speaker 8: end of this season we may look at him. They're 411 00:17:06,868 --> 00:17:09,188 Speaker 8: pointing in the right direction. They're going upward and are 412 00:17:09,228 --> 00:17:11,188 Speaker 8: actually winning a few games. I'm going with to Houston 413 00:17:11,268 --> 00:17:13,548 Speaker 8: Texas Rawls, improved AFC team. 414 00:17:13,628 --> 00:17:14,148 Speaker 3: I am out. 415 00:17:14,268 --> 00:17:14,708 Speaker 4: I like it. 416 00:17:14,868 --> 00:17:17,628 Speaker 5: I'm out as well. Nine and eight's a really good record. 417 00:17:17,908 --> 00:17:19,708 Speaker 5: Seven and ten I think in football is like the 418 00:17:19,788 --> 00:17:22,028 Speaker 5: most controversial record ever because it could either be like 419 00:17:22,028 --> 00:17:23,748 Speaker 5: a smiley face seven and ten or it can be 420 00:17:23,748 --> 00:17:26,028 Speaker 5: a disappointing seven and ten for some team. Seven and 421 00:17:26,148 --> 00:17:27,988 Speaker 5: ten would be a warm welcome. It'd be like a 422 00:17:28,068 --> 00:17:30,948 Speaker 5: hug for the season. I go with a team that 423 00:17:31,028 --> 00:17:32,388 Speaker 5: was seven and ten last year and I think they're 424 00:17:32,428 --> 00:17:33,908 Speaker 5: going to be better. I go with the Jets. I'm 425 00:17:33,908 --> 00:17:36,268 Speaker 5: going with the Jets. I think Aaron Rodgers, no matter 426 00:17:36,588 --> 00:17:39,788 Speaker 5: how great Pickett pickens, I don't care how many tomlinisms 427 00:17:39,828 --> 00:17:43,268 Speaker 5: we get, the Aaron Rodgers effect on the New York Jets, 428 00:17:43,348 --> 00:17:46,468 Speaker 5: I think will amplify them more so than anything that 429 00:17:46,508 --> 00:17:47,948 Speaker 5: happened with the Steelers system season. 430 00:17:48,228 --> 00:17:49,668 Speaker 1: I'd love to be in on this, but I am 431 00:17:49,708 --> 00:17:52,108 Speaker 1: also out. I think if tj WAT doesn't get hurt 432 00:17:52,148 --> 00:17:53,468 Speaker 1: last year, I think the're in the playoffs. I think 433 00:17:53,508 --> 00:17:55,908 Speaker 1: they break dance into the playoffs. I'm going to go 434 00:17:55,988 --> 00:17:58,388 Speaker 1: with a team that I hope is better and they 435 00:17:58,588 --> 00:18:00,868 Speaker 1: better be better. And I know with the Broncos, and 436 00:18:01,068 --> 00:18:02,948 Speaker 1: we got to do this here with due respect to 437 00:18:03,588 --> 00:18:06,908 Speaker 1: CJ st and Kenny pick It, Like we got a 438 00:18:06,988 --> 00:18:08,708 Speaker 1: quarterback with the Super Bowl ring, we got a head 439 00:18:08,708 --> 00:18:10,908 Speaker 1: coach with the Super Bowl ring. We've had a year 440 00:18:11,068 --> 00:18:14,028 Speaker 1: to adjust. We have Peyton's coming in and cracking skulls. 441 00:18:14,868 --> 00:18:17,148 Speaker 1: Five wins last year five. 442 00:18:17,468 --> 00:18:19,748 Speaker 4: Like they got to improve. They don't have any choice. 443 00:18:20,188 --> 00:18:23,508 Speaker 1: Is there is no mysterious smiley face seven and ten 444 00:18:23,628 --> 00:18:24,788 Speaker 1: season for the Denver Broncos. 445 00:18:24,868 --> 00:18:26,468 Speaker 4: Like we got to get those wins up. Now. 446 00:18:26,868 --> 00:18:29,308 Speaker 1: It's not just last year, it's the last half decade. 447 00:18:29,508 --> 00:18:31,668 Speaker 1: We got stars, we got everybody who brought it. I 448 00:18:31,748 --> 00:18:33,468 Speaker 1: think it's the Broncos. I hope it will be a 449 00:18:33,548 --> 00:18:35,548 Speaker 1: better be and I'm getting a sense that it will be. 450 00:18:36,508 --> 00:18:38,428 Speaker 2: You feel good about how they at least the delta 451 00:18:38,508 --> 00:18:39,988 Speaker 2: between last year to this year. 452 00:18:40,068 --> 00:18:41,748 Speaker 4: I feel the same way about the Raiders this year. 453 00:18:42,068 --> 00:18:45,348 Speaker 2: Like I feel like the Raiders Peter, they add Jimmy Garoppolo, 454 00:18:45,468 --> 00:18:47,108 Speaker 2: they kind of add some stabilia that they add in 455 00:18:47,228 --> 00:18:49,628 Speaker 2: some players on both the offensive and defensive lines, and 456 00:18:49,708 --> 00:18:51,588 Speaker 2: I maybe I get a little excited about a first 457 00:18:51,628 --> 00:18:54,108 Speaker 2: round pick after one play but that Tyree Tyrie and 458 00:18:54,228 --> 00:18:56,428 Speaker 2: something yesterday that I was like, all right, you got 459 00:18:56,468 --> 00:18:58,588 Speaker 2: Crosby and Wilson and then you've got all these guys 460 00:18:58,628 --> 00:19:00,748 Speaker 2: and DeVante Adams is still there, and now Josh Jacobs 461 00:19:00,788 --> 00:19:00,988 Speaker 2: is there. 462 00:19:01,028 --> 00:19:03,228 Speaker 4: Like, look at the roster.

If there were thirty five 506 00:20:43,948 --> 00:20:46,308 Speaker 8: teams right now, they'd be thirty five if I'm careful. 507 00:20:46,388 --> 00:20:47,308 Speaker 3: If I'm careful, they. 508 00:20:47,268 --> 00:20:49,268 Speaker 4: Can click this off when they go nine and eight here, 509 00:20:49,388 --> 00:20:51,548 Speaker 4: that's my dang wrong. 510 00:20:51,948 --> 00:20:54,548 Speaker 8: It doesn't matter me. I love Jonathan Gannon was with them, 511 00:20:54,628 --> 00:20:57,108 Speaker 8: it doesn't matter. These are the moves they're making. I'm 512 00:20:57,148 --> 00:20:59,828 Speaker 8: making my moves base accordingly. If I'm a Cardinals fan 513 00:20:59,948 --> 00:21:02,188 Speaker 8: right now, picking up a new hobby, maybe some pickleball 514 00:21:02,268 --> 00:21:05,388 Speaker 8: to play Sunday mornings into afternoons, depending upon how. 515 00:21:05,308 --> 00:21:06,028 Speaker 4: The game's going. 516 00:21:06,268 --> 00:21:08,748 Speaker 8: And I'm just hoping when I go home finish my round, 517 00:21:08,788 --> 00:21:10,828 Speaker 8: I go home, turn the TV on. Ah, we got 518 00:21:10,908 --> 00:21:12,988 Speaker 8: one today, and I'm fired up. But you don't want 519 00:21:13,028 --> 00:21:14,748 Speaker 8: those expectations to be too high. You don't want to 520 00:21:14,788 --> 00:21:16,948 Speaker 8: be let down, so you just go find something else 521 00:21:16,988 --> 00:21:19,028 Speaker 8: to do during that time, and if you're surprised when 522 00:21:19,068 --> 00:21:20,908 Speaker 8: you get home, it just makes for a really good 523 00:21:20,908 --> 00:21:22,028 Speaker 8: Sunday leading into Monday. 524 00:21:22,148 --> 00:21:25,028 Speaker 5: Pleasantly surprised and you're opting to play pickleball instead of 525 00:21:25,068 --> 00:21:26,268 Speaker 5: watch your Arizona Cardinals. 526 00:21:26,508 --> 00:21:27,028 Speaker 6: It's tough. 527 00:21:27,628 --> 00:21:29,148 Speaker 5: That does kind of ring true to be the thirty 528 00:21:29,188 --> 00:21:30,548 Speaker 5: second and I don't want to do that to them, 529 00:21:30,588 --> 00:21:32,908 Speaker 5: but somebody has to be And I look at how 530 00:21:32,988 --> 00:21:36,028 Speaker 5: everybody ended, how everyone ended last year in twenty twenty two, 531 00:21:36,388 --> 00:21:38,708 Speaker 5: not even the teams like to your point, the Texans, 532 00:21:39,308 --> 00:21:41,428 Speaker 5: not even the teams that finish three and thirteen, and 533 00:21:41,468 --> 00:21:43,548 Speaker 5: they only won their last game. Is their streak to 534 00:21:43,588 --> 00:21:45,308 Speaker 5: finish twenty twenty two? Can I get on board with 535 00:21:45,388 --> 00:21:48,028 Speaker 5: being less powerful than the Cardinals right now? It's because 536 00:21:48,028 --> 00:21:49,708 Speaker 5: she's in the pup thing is a real deal. The 537 00:21:49,828 --> 00:21:51,668 Speaker 5: fact that he can't go back now till week five 538 00:21:53,028 --> 00:21:55,788 Speaker 5: and the starting Clayton tune and Josh Jobs, who has 539 00:21:55,828 --> 00:21:57,868 Speaker 5: been there for a minute, for longer than this cup 540 00:21:57,908 --> 00:22:01,508 Speaker 5: of coffee is listening there. This is remarkable decision making. Yeah, 541 00:22:01,548 --> 00:22:02,188 Speaker 5: I'm gonna go there. 542 00:22:02,428 --> 00:22:03,948 Speaker 4: I could not believe the Coca coid is. 543 00:22:04,508 --> 00:22:08,588 Speaker 1: I was like, you guys, come on, you're gonna cut told. Yeah, 544 00:22:10,628 --> 00:22:12,428 Speaker 1: I bet, I am out. I do not think they 545 00:22:12,468 --> 00:22:14,548 Speaker 1: should be a thirty second. I think he put Georgia 546 00:22:14,628 --> 00:22:15,068 Speaker 1: ahead of them. 547 00:22:15,068 --> 00:22:17,988 Speaker 4: They put them down an I'm just busting chocks. It's 548 00:22:18,068 --> 00:22:19,548 Speaker 4: Clayton toon Now. 549 00:22:19,588 --> 00:22:20,828 Speaker 1: If you're watching home, you're like, what the hell are 550 00:22:20,828 --> 00:22:24,148 Speaker 1: they talking about? Clayton Tune t uny like carry a tune? 551 00:22:25,148 --> 00:22:27,788 Speaker 1: Fifth round, rookie out of Houston. Can you imagine if 552 00:22:27,788 --> 00:22:31,548 Speaker 1: we've been spending all this time talking about Bryce Young, CJ. 553 00:22:31,788 --> 00:22:35,108 Speaker 1: Stroud and Anthony Richardson. Whoa, whoa, there's another rookie that 554 00:22:35,228 --> 00:22:35,828 Speaker 1: is going to start. 555 00:22:35,828 --> 00:22:37,148 Speaker 4: He's gonna be one of the thirty two. 556 00:22:37,508 --> 00:22:40,148 Speaker 1: He's doing the same job that Mahomes and Rogers and 557 00:22:40,188 --> 00:22:43,028 Speaker 1: Allen and Clayton toon and we don't even know it 558 00:22:43,108 --> 00:22:45,228 Speaker 1: might be Josh Dobbs. Would they traded for twenty minutes 559 00:22:45,268 --> 00:22:47,708 Speaker 1: ago not to be the backup or the like to 560 00:22:47,948 --> 00:22:51,308 Speaker 1: be the QB one for the team? Uh, there's a 561 00:22:51,348 --> 00:22:54,028 Speaker 1: lot of insinuations online that like there's a whole planning 562 00:22:54,068 --> 00:22:55,988 Speaker 1: place here, and I would never insinuate that because it 563 00:22:56,028 --> 00:22:57,988 Speaker 1: goes against what this league stands for. But there's a 564 00:22:58,068 --> 00:23:00,588 Speaker 1: really beautiful quarterback in place for USC that's a long 565 00:23:00,668 --> 00:23:05,348 Speaker 1: time away from here. You cut Colt McCoy, it seems 566 00:23:05,388 --> 00:23:07,908 Speaker 1: to be by far your best chance of winning. So 567 00:23:08,628 --> 00:23:11,068 Speaker 1: don't until I understand that rule. I can't see anyone 568 00:23:11,108 --> 00:23:12,068 Speaker 1: else I could put in front of them. 569 00:23:12,068 --> 00:23:14,308 Speaker 2: There's no guarantee that quarterback at USC is coming out 570 00:23:14,348 --> 00:23:16,268 Speaker 2: of the draft, So to me like to prepare for 571 00:23:16,388 --> 00:23:17,028 Speaker 2: it and try to do that. 572 00:23:17,108 --> 00:23:18,548 Speaker 4: I don't think that's the plan. I think the plant 573 00:23:18,588 --> 00:23:19,548 Speaker 4: is just clear the decks. 574 00:23:19,588 --> 00:23:22,228 Speaker 2: But to your point, Colt McCoy, fourteen years in the 575 00:23:22,308 --> 00:23:25,188 Speaker 2: league had never been cut. I think he was assumed 576 00:23:25,228 --> 00:23:27,468 Speaker 2: the starter, and then to get that news eight days 577 00:23:27,468 --> 00:23:29,788 Speaker 2: where he'll end up somewhere. Don't worry about Cole. He'll 578 00:23:29,828 --> 00:23:31,708 Speaker 2: be a backup somewhere. There's a lot of a lot 579 00:23:31,748 --> 00:23:34,308 Speaker 2: of money. Yeah, he's really fine. But like this decision 580 00:23:34,348 --> 00:23:35,468 Speaker 2: to me was a head scratcher. 581 00:23:35,788 --> 00:23:38,828 Speaker 8: And it was because now I think you may look 582 00:23:38,868 --> 00:23:40,708 Speaker 8: at it and they may say, we think Tune or 583 00:23:40,828 --> 00:23:42,988 Speaker 8: Dobbs can go out there and play better than Colt 584 00:23:43,068 --> 00:23:45,188 Speaker 8: McCoy at this point in his career. It was just 585 00:23:45,308 --> 00:23:48,308 Speaker 8: odd because you just possibly keep them in the room. 586 00:23:48,468 --> 00:23:50,788 Speaker 8: Even if you bring Dobbs or you start Tune. It 587 00:23:50,828 --> 00:23:53,188 Speaker 8: would be good to have that voice to coach it better, 588 00:23:53,428 --> 00:23:55,108 Speaker 8: you know what I mean. But as far as playing 589 00:23:55,108 --> 00:23:56,268 Speaker 8: on the field, they might have looked at and say, 590 00:23:56,268 --> 00:23:57,788 Speaker 8: all right, we think these guys give us a better 591 00:23:57,868 --> 00:23:59,108 Speaker 8: chance to win right now than Colt. 592 00:23:59,228 --> 00:24:01,948 Speaker 2: Jonathan Anon, first year coach, Money Austin for first year 593 00:24:01,988 --> 00:24:05,188 Speaker 2: GM and the youngest offensive coordinator and young defensive corner 594 00:24:05,268 --> 00:24:06,148 Speaker 2: in the league's good luck. 595 00:24:06,548 --> 00:24:08,148 Speaker 5: I want to hear this from the Cardinal fans who 596 00:24:08,188 --> 00:24:09,828 Speaker 5: are going to see this the second pass through on 597 00:24:09,908 --> 00:24:13,028 Speaker 5: Good Morning Football. Besides Kyler Murray, who is the best 598 00:24:13,068 --> 00:24:13,828 Speaker 5: player on your team? 599 00:24:13,868 --> 00:24:14,428 Speaker 4: Buda Baker? 600 00:24:14,548 --> 00:24:15,468 Speaker 5: Who is Baker? 601 00:24:16,828 --> 00:24:19,388 Speaker 4: I think Buddha is better than Kyler. He's the best play. 602 00:24:19,908 --> 00:24:21,668 Speaker 4: I can't believe we did that topic. That is very 603 00:24:21,788 --> 00:24:23,028 Speaker 4: unlike you personally. 604 00:24:23,348 --> 00:24:25,268 Speaker 2: I thought, when you hear these, you know I'm getting 605 00:24:25,308 --> 00:24:27,228 Speaker 2: memes of Ryan Tanks coming after the thing. 606 00:24:27,268 --> 00:24:29,028 Speaker 4: I think it's time to talk about giant tanks are 607 00:24:29,068 --> 00:24:29,508 Speaker 4: coming through. 608 00:24:33,948 --> 00:24:36,868 Speaker 1: All right, welcome back. Nobody in the world loves football 609 00:24:36,988 --> 00:24:39,428 Speaker 1: more than this person. Nobody is a better broadcaster than 610 00:24:39,468 --> 00:24:41,468 Speaker 1: this person. And no one will punch you if you 611 00:24:41,588 --> 00:24:43,748 Speaker 1: beat him in a video game like this person. He's 612 00:24:43,748 --> 00:24:44,508 Speaker 1: an old friend of mine. 613 00:24:44,628 --> 00:24:45,748 Speaker 4: Is ross talking about somebody? 614 00:24:47,148 --> 00:24:49,948 Speaker 3: Well, I'm doing awesome. Thank you guys for having me. 615 00:24:50,108 --> 00:24:53,828 Speaker 1: That was quite the intro, all accurate, all accurate, autobiographical 616 00:24:53,868 --> 00:24:54,188 Speaker 1: as well. 617 00:24:54,388 --> 00:24:55,908 Speaker 4: We got to get to this because when I watch 618 00:24:55,948 --> 00:24:57,468 Speaker 4: you do the broadcast, and you were doing the preseason 619 00:24:57,508 --> 00:24:59,628 Speaker 4: games for the Eagles. I've known you for twenty five years. 620 00:24:59,908 --> 00:25:01,988 Speaker 1: It's fun to watch you because, like there's times when 621 00:25:02,028 --> 00:25:04,348 Speaker 1: it's like broadcaster Ross and he's total professional, and I'm like, 622 00:25:04,828 --> 00:25:07,748 Speaker 1: that is the real Ross. And there is no real 623 00:25:07,908 --> 00:25:09,748 Speaker 1: Ross that I've ever seen, more than during the second 624 00:25:09,748 --> 00:25:13,268 Speaker 1: preseason Eagles games when you started speaking about the children, 625 00:25:13,348 --> 00:25:13,868 Speaker 1: let's roll out. 626 00:25:15,348 --> 00:25:18,708 Speaker 6: I love that the game is growing internationally. I mean, Scott, 627 00:25:18,788 --> 00:25:21,188 Speaker 6: think of the kids. There are kids out there that 628 00:25:21,308 --> 00:25:23,988 Speaker 6: think soccer is the best sport. We gotta grow this 629 00:25:24,108 --> 00:25:26,788 Speaker 6: thing internationally so they know. Well, listen, I just want 630 00:25:27,268 --> 00:25:29,988 Speaker 6: young people all across the globe to at least know 631 00:25:30,268 --> 00:25:34,108 Speaker 6: about American football, to at least know it exists. 632 00:25:35,308 --> 00:25:37,988 Speaker 3: I played soccer till I was eleven. It was great. 633 00:25:39,908 --> 00:25:43,788 Speaker 1: Okay, that's the guy saying like, can you imagine these 634 00:25:43,868 --> 00:25:45,828 Speaker 1: children thinking soccer is the best sport? It was an 635 00:25:45,828 --> 00:25:48,148 Speaker 1: amazing take, and that is you authentically. What was the 636 00:25:48,268 --> 00:25:50,548 Speaker 1: reaction like after you had that take, Well, there. 637 00:25:50,508 --> 00:25:53,908 Speaker 6: Was definitely a decent amount of people pushing back soccer fans. 638 00:25:53,988 --> 00:25:55,428 Speaker 6: But the thing is, I didn't really say anything bad 639 00:25:55,428 --> 00:25:58,028 Speaker 6: about soccer long. I didn't knock soccer at all. Soccer 640 00:25:58,148 --> 00:25:59,668 Speaker 6: is very popular. It's always gonna be. 641 00:25:59,828 --> 00:26:00,188 Speaker 3: I get it. 642 00:26:00,508 --> 00:26:03,228 Speaker 6: Here's why I no, Okay, soccer was awesome. I was 643 00:26:03,308 --> 00:26:09,828 Speaker 6: on the under ten eighteen, but I turned eleven. I 644 00:26:09,908 --> 00:26:12,348 Speaker 6: went out for football. I put a helmet and shoulder 645 00:26:12,388 --> 00:26:15,268 Speaker 6: padge on it. I ran into another kid, I knocked 646 00:26:15,308 --> 00:26:17,988 Speaker 6: him on his butt, and I never thought about soccer again. 647 00:26:18,308 --> 00:26:18,508 Speaker 4: Yeah. 648 00:26:19,508 --> 00:26:22,428 Speaker 6: I mean I I just want as many kids in 649 00:26:22,588 --> 00:26:25,668 Speaker 6: all sincerities, as many kids as possible in all these 650 00:26:25,708 --> 00:26:29,948 Speaker 6: other countries to know about it, to at least try helmet, 651 00:26:30,028 --> 00:26:34,468 Speaker 6: shoulder padge on run into someone else. I played every sport, basketball, baseball, 652 00:26:34,468 --> 00:26:35,908 Speaker 6: I played them. They're all great. You know. 653 00:26:36,028 --> 00:26:37,948 Speaker 3: I love basketball. It's not the same. 654 00:26:38,508 --> 00:26:40,988 Speaker 6: It's not the same as running into somebody as hard 655 00:26:40,988 --> 00:26:42,908 Speaker 6: as you can knock him over. That's the best feeling 656 00:26:42,948 --> 00:26:46,108 Speaker 6: in the world. It's hilarious every time, even when Kyle 657 00:26:46,148 --> 00:26:48,348 Speaker 6: would score a touchdown and he would knock somebody. 658 00:26:48,148 --> 00:26:52,948 Speaker 3: Over, UT like, I love it. 659 00:26:53,348 --> 00:26:55,108 Speaker 6: That's the thing I missed more than anything about football. 660 00:26:55,268 --> 00:26:59,508 Speaker 6: I missed the physical contact. So I'm glad.

And 668 00:27:16,228 --> 00:27:18,108 Speaker 4: that you just in soccer when you were you just 669 00:27:18,188 --> 00:27:18,588 Speaker 4: dropped them. 670 00:27:18,708 --> 00:27:20,948 Speaker 6: Yeah, I was under eight, under ten, and I think 671 00:27:20,988 --> 00:27:23,148 Speaker 6: one year of under twelve, y missing eighteen. 672 00:27:23,708 --> 00:27:26,268 Speaker 3: It's kind of a big deal. It's either center midfielder 673 00:27:26,388 --> 00:27:27,188 Speaker 3: or center fullback. 674 00:27:27,628 --> 00:27:30,388 Speaker 6: But that's the age where that's the age where if 675 00:27:30,428 --> 00:27:31,988 Speaker 6: you're like the biggest kid and you can kick it 676 00:27:32,068 --> 00:27:34,668 Speaker 6: the furthest you're still on the A team I made. 677 00:27:34,988 --> 00:27:37,708 Speaker 6: I went over to football right when I was going 678 00:27:37,748 --> 00:27:40,828 Speaker 6: through my chubby stage. A nice transition. 679 00:27:41,228 --> 00:27:43,548 Speaker 8: Yeah, in all seriousness, we love listening to you on 680 00:27:43,628 --> 00:27:45,908 Speaker 8: the broadcast.

He's awesome, And I love that 687 00:28:02,148 --> 00:28:05,068 Speaker 6: we have a dB wide receiver and then I'm the 688 00:28:05,148 --> 00:28:07,308 Speaker 6: O line D line, like we have the best of 689 00:28:07,388 --> 00:28:09,988 Speaker 6: both worlds, which will be totally fully yes, but I 690 00:28:10,028 --> 00:28:13,188 Speaker 6: think you know, it's not even about like CBS or 691 00:28:13,548 --> 00:28:17,108 Speaker 6: Big ten sec. I'm just excited that more people will 692 00:28:17,108 --> 00:28:19,548 Speaker 6: get a chance to hear how much I love it, 693 00:28:20,028 --> 00:28:26,068 Speaker 6: Like Kyle knows, like authentic, genuine, this is how I've 694 00:28:26,188 --> 00:28:29,388 Speaker 6: always been. I really am this excited. I really do 695 00:28:29,588 --> 00:28:32,748 Speaker 6: love football this much. It's why Kyle and I don't 696 00:28:32,788 --> 00:28:34,628 Speaker 6: do Wall Street or anything. All the other people from 697 00:28:34,668 --> 00:28:37,148 Speaker 6: Princeton do. We like football, We like talking about it. 698 00:28:37,468 --> 00:28:39,228 Speaker 5: And you're gonna be with Chris Lewis and then Tiffany 699 00:28:39,828 --> 00:28:43,468 Speaker 5: Black on the sideline with you. That's awesome. On CBS Ross, 700 00:28:43,868 --> 00:28:45,748 Speaker 5: you spent a lot of time on the Eagles. We 701 00:28:45,908 --> 00:28:49,068 Speaker 5: just saw the preseason clip and even the broadcast legend 702 00:28:49,148 --> 00:28:54,708 Speaker 5: Merril Rece this is awesome. They're Sirianni with Ross upon arrival. 703 00:28:54,748 --> 00:28:57,188 Speaker 5: We saw them great clip and Marrow Eace before the 704 00:28:57,268 --> 00:29:01,628 Speaker 5: game before preseason, like trying to say words that I yes, 705 00:29:01,748 --> 00:29:04,868 Speaker 5: playing yep, But let's talk about the football. Your feelings 706 00:29:04,868 --> 00:29:06,348 Speaker 5: about the Eagles right now, let's go. 707 00:29:06,548 --> 00:29:08,868 Speaker 6: Well, look, they're really good and they're going to be 708 00:29:08,948 --> 00:29:11,428 Speaker 6: really good again. The thing I tell people, though, is 709 00:29:12,148 --> 00:29:14,628 Speaker 6: they've been really healthy the last couple of years, you know, 710 00:29:14,748 --> 00:29:18,428 Speaker 6: knock on wood, but that is an issue for sure 711 00:29:18,628 --> 00:29:20,708 Speaker 6: because you don't know if that will sustain. The other 712 00:29:20,788 --> 00:29:24,508 Speaker 6: thing is they lost seven starters. I mean that's rough, 713 00:29:25,148 --> 00:29:28,668 Speaker 6: and they lost starting to tackle, both linebackers, both safety. 714 00:29:28,748 --> 00:29:30,908 Speaker 6: I think it's hard to argue that they'll be better 715 00:29:30,948 --> 00:29:33,748 Speaker 6: at linebacker and safety, but I think they might be 716 00:29:33,788 --> 00:29:35,748 Speaker 6: good enough in the other areas to de line the 717 00:29:35,828 --> 00:29:38,228 Speaker 6: corners to make up for it. Jalen Hurts looked even 718 00:29:38,308 --> 00:29:41,548 Speaker 6: better in campus year. I think DeVante Smith looked better, 719 00:29:41,668 --> 00:29:43,708 Speaker 6: so they'll be right there again. I think at the 720 00:29:43,788 --> 00:29:44,668 Speaker 6: end we San Francisco in. 721 00:29:44,708 --> 00:29:47,708 Speaker 2: Dallas, Jalen Carter, give me something, Let's go. Is it 722 00:29:47,788 --> 00:29:49,188 Speaker 2: as beastly as they're saying. 723 00:29:49,108 --> 00:29:51,348 Speaker 6: Well, that's what all the guys are saying. That he 724 00:29:51,468 --> 00:29:52,868 Speaker 6: barely played in the preseason. 725 00:29:53,068 --> 00:29:58,468 Speaker 3: His first preseason. He's going against Ben Cleveland, right hand 726 00:29:58,548 --> 00:30:00,548 Speaker 3: club throws him out of the way. 727 00:30:00,828 --> 00:30:03,108 Speaker 6: He almost thought it was a screen because he got 728 00:30:03,188 --> 00:30:06,228 Speaker 6: in that easily. He's had a great spot, right. I mean, 729 00:30:06,708 --> 00:30:09,428 Speaker 6: they have so many Fletcher Cocks, Brandon Graham, so many 730 00:30:09,428 --> 00:30:12,948 Speaker 6: good leaders around him. But then they need him. Javon 731 00:30:13,028 --> 00:30:15,388 Speaker 6: Hargrave left to go to the Niners like they need 732 00:30:15,468 --> 00:30:18,588 Speaker 6: an interior pass rusher. It really is wild that they 733 00:30:18,628 --> 00:30:20,668 Speaker 6: were able to get him with a ninth overall pick. 734 00:30:20,908 --> 00:30:23,468 Speaker 6: We know the reasons why, but that'll be talked about 735 00:30:23,508 --> 00:30:26,028 Speaker 6: a lot the next few years if he produces on 736 00:30:26,068 --> 00:30:26,428 Speaker 6: the field. 737 00:30:27,148 --> 00:30:29,868 Speaker 4: That's Jalen Carter is a ross type of play. That's 738 00:30:29,908 --> 00:30:30,788 Speaker 4: where you lived. Dude. 739 00:30:30,948 --> 00:30:33,508 Speaker 1: You understand this guy was an undrafted guy to Washington 740 00:30:33,588 --> 00:30:35,908 Speaker 1: as a rookie and basically helped to make the team 741 00:30:35,988 --> 00:30:37,748 Speaker 1: because you fought LeVar Arrington in training camp. 742 00:30:37,788 --> 00:30:40,268 Speaker 4: True story, right, Well, I kind of fought anybody. 743 00:30:40,348 --> 00:30:40,548 Speaker 3: Yeah. 744 00:30:40,588 --> 00:30:43,388 Speaker 6: I mean, when you're undrafted rookie, in all sincerity, you 745 00:30:43,548 --> 00:30:45,908 Speaker 6: have to do something to get noticed. Yes, right, And 746 00:30:46,108 --> 00:30:49,268 Speaker 6: I didn't think I My My story, Kyle is I've 747 00:30:49,308 --> 00:30:51,268 Speaker 6: never started to fight in my life. Right, This what 748 00:30:51,268 --> 00:30:53,828 Speaker 6: I'm sticking. I never started to fight in my life. 749 00:30:54,148 --> 00:30:56,708 Speaker 3: I finished place. I finished. 750 00:30:58,108 --> 00:31:01,268 Speaker 6: The stars don't like it, yea, the stars don't. And 751 00:31:02,028 --> 00:31:04,148 Speaker 6: I'm not mad at him, but I don't ever try 752 00:31:04,188 --> 00:31:06,748 Speaker 6: to start to fight. I finished the play because that's 753 00:31:06,748 --> 00:31:07,788 Speaker 6: what the coach has noticed. 754 00:31:08,068 --> 00:31:08,428 Speaker 3: I know this. 755 00:31:09,148 --> 00:31:11,868 Speaker 6: Multiple times in training camp I had coaches telling me 756 00:31:11,948 --> 00:31:14,668 Speaker 6: to calm down. If the coach in the NFL tells 757 00:31:14,708 --> 00:31:16,588 Speaker 6: you to calm down. That's a real good sign. 758 00:31:17,908 --> 00:31:19,948 Speaker 3: They're telling you to calm down. But later in the 759 00:31:19,988 --> 00:31:22,548 Speaker 3: meeting they're saying the other coaches like you love you talk. 760 00:31:24,108 --> 00:31:27,108 Speaker 6: Down. You know, they didn't much rather, you know, tell 761 00:31:27,148 --> 00:31:28,668 Speaker 6: you to pull back a little, but then have to 762 00:31:28,748 --> 00:31:29,388 Speaker 6: then have to get. 763 00:31:29,308 --> 00:31:32,988 Speaker 1: You playing with Tarcels, Schottenheimer, Belichick like that. 764 00:31:33,148 --> 00:31:35,468 Speaker 4: Joe Gibbs, Joe Gibbs, It's awesome. 765 00:31:35,788 --> 00:31:38,548 Speaker 5: Yeah, they like that's a good way, that's a great stance. 766 00:31:38,868 --> 00:31:42,548 Speaker 2: The story that we've mentioned many times, and she's pretty popular, 767 00:31:42,708 --> 00:31:45,068 Speaker 2: but I still think you're the most famous person from 768 00:31:45,068 --> 00:31:45,668 Speaker 2: your hometown. 769 00:31:45,748 --> 00:31:48,188 Speaker 4: Who else is from your hometown?
