I think with these coaching vacancies and maybe 18 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 2: some coaches who probably were keeping a close eye on 19 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 2: their phone yesterday, I would imagine there's three or four 20 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,479 Speaker 2: coaches who are probably thinking, boy, I hope that doesn't ring. 21 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 2: Boy I hope I don't get a text from you 22 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 2: know who? And now, is somebody going to get fired 23 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 2: at any point this week? Is it just Monday? 24 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 3: Are you? Do you have to only? 25 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:19,680 Speaker 2: Hey, if you're going to fire somebody, it's got to 26 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 2: be Monday as opposed to Tuesday or Wednesday. 27 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 4: Yes, if yesterday was black, Monday is today. I think 28 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 4: I made it Tuesday. Is there a name for today? 29 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 4: Like you survived Tuesday? 30 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 2: Hey? 31 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 3: All right, I think it's called Tuesday. Yes, Paul, Shuesday 32 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,119 Speaker 3: is pretty good shoesday. 33 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 5: You're in the clear Tuesday. 34 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:39,839 Speaker 6: Okay. 35 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 7: So let's say another team decided on Thursday to fire 36 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 7: their head coach. Does that make them indecisive? 37 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:46,119 Speaker 3: Yes? 38 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 7: I'm throwing out the Dolphins just because it seems like 39 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 7: it's not done done yet. 40 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 3: I think I think he's gonna survive. 41 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 5: Appears that way. 42 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 2: I think they're promoting maybe from within for their general manager. Therefore, 43 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 2: somebody who has worked with Mike, and I think he's 44 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 2: probably going to keep his job. There are a few 45 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 2: coaches where you go, how did he survive or the 46 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 2: GM survives or the coach survives and the GM doesn't. 47 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 2: You know, it's spring cleaning, you know, but it's the 48 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 2: day after the regular season ends. But the coaching vacancies 49 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 2: are certainly interesting, and I always go back to, who's 50 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 2: my quarterback? All of these jobs are available because you 51 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 2: probably don't have your quarterback yet when you think about it. 52 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: Jets don't have their quarterback, you know. The Tennessee Titans 53 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,679 Speaker 2: have their quarterback, but they need a whole lot there. 54 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 2: The Raiders don't have their quarterback. They're going to get 55 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 2: their quarterback Arizona. They're not sure what they're doing with 56 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 2: Kyler Murray. So it's difficult to get fired when you 57 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 2: have a franchise quarterback because chances are that franchise quarterback 58 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 2: is the future and allows you to dream big, you know, 59 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 2: like Jackson Dart to me as a franchise quarterback. And 60 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 2: they keep the GM and they get rid of the coach. 61 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns don't have any quarterbacks, but they get rid 62 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 2: of the two time coach of the year who will 63 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 2: be in demand probably three openings, which I don't understand. 64 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 2: He's not good enough for the Browns, but Kevin Stefanski 65 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 2: could be good enough for the Giants or the Falcons 66 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 2: or the Cardinals. Now he's not good enough for us. Okay, 67 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 2: And from what I was told, really this came down 68 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 2: to they decided that they were going to keep the 69 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 2: quarterback Shadoor Sanders, and the GM and Kevin Stefanski. I 70 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 2: think they did him a favor by letting him go, 71 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 2: because I don't think Kevin Stefanski, you know, you're in 72 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 2: that situation, You're supposed to be an offensive minded guy. 73 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 2: You couldn't really develop those two quarterbacks. They never should 74 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 2: have turned the reins over to rookie quarterbacks because I 75 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 2: you know, in a competitive division, Cleveland does have talent 76 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 2: on that roster. They don't have talent in the ownership office. 77 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 2: But and you're drafting these quarterbacks. You know, the GM 78 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 2: Andrew Berry, he keeps his job. Kevin Stefanski does not. 79 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 2: And Kevin Stefanski deserves better, and he'll get something better 80 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 2: by leaving the Cleveland Browns. But you know you're going 81 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: to be on the clock for a quarterback. You're going 82 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 2: to take a quarterback, You're going to trade up. You 83 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 2: got two first round draft picks. You know, the Raiders 84 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: can maybe solve some of their problems by getting Fernando Mendoza. 85 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 2: But you start to think about the Raiders. Since two thousand, 86 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 2: the Raiders have been defined by one word, instability. Fifteen 87 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 2: head coaches if you count John Gruden twice, So in 88 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 2: just over a quarter of a century you've had fifteen 89 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 2: head coaches. You don't have a franchise quarterback. The best 90 00:04:55,520 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 2: quarterback in the building is Tom Brady. You went all 91 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 2: in on Gino Smith, then you know you're. 92 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 3: In a rebuild. 93 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 2: But you do have some pieces there, Rock Bowers, Ashton Genty, 94 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 2: Max Crosby if he's still going to be there. 95 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 3: But let me run down the coaches. 96 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 2: Interim head coaches for the Raiders since two thousand, John Gruden, 97 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 2: Bill Callahan, North Turner, Artchell, Lane Kiff and Tom Cable, 98 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 2: Hugh Jackson, Dennis Allen, Tony Sperano, Jack del Rio, John Gruden, 99 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 2: Rich Bisaccia, Josh McDaniels, Antonio Pearson, Pete Carroll. That's amazing. 100 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 2: O stat of the day brought to you by Panini America, 101 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 2: The official trading cards of the Dan Patrick show stability. 102 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 2: You want to have stability. It starts with ownership and 103 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 2: then works its way down. You got to have that 104 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 2: coach that you know is going to be their offensive coordinator. 105 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 2: Look at the you know, the great teams, great franchises, 106 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 2: and you see that there's a common thread. Who's your owner, 107 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 2: who's your head coach? Gm head coach on the same page, 108 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 2: who's your franchise quarterback. You know, you kind of bunch 109 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: that together and you go, Okay, that's where you start. 110 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 2: And the Raiders don't have stability there at all. And 111 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 2: Pete Carroll is one and done. I didn't like the hire. 112 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 2: I was glad that Pete got another job, but that's 113 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 2: not for Pete Carroll. This is Pete Carroll can go 114 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 2: in and make a difference for a team that is 115 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 2: ready to take that next step. This team was not. 116 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 2: And I think that's the disappointing part. When and that 117 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 2: Raider tradition and Raider fans, it's like twenty five years. 118 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 2: We can spend a lot of time talking about the Cowboys, 119 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 2: which everybody does, but the Raiders, you know, they should 120 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,559 Speaker 2: be the class or you know, part of the class 121 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 2: of the AFC West. 122 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 3: They should be. 123 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 2: But man, we are so far removed from Al Davis 124 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 2: and the Silver and Black. But you see, even the Giants, 125 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 2: the Giants, we look at the Giants organization, we go, yeah, 126 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 2: that's one of the great organizations, not lately, not not stability. 127 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 2: Look at the head coaches they've had. Now they do 128 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 2: have their quarterback. But I got a quarterback that I 129 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 2: worry about. His concussions not the best thing to worry about, 130 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 2: just as the Dolphins with Tua. And it looks like 131 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 2: the Dolphins will move on from Tua as well. So 132 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 2: we'll rank these openings here. And I certainly look at 133 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 2: what the Giants have because they have their quarterback. If 134 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 2: I had confidence in the ownership with the Raiders, then 135 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 2: I would say, all right, you're gonna get Mendoza, Bowers, Gente, 136 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 2: Hopefully you can smooth things over with Crosby and maybe 137 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 2: Tom Brady getting more and more involved that you're going 138 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 2: to get the right coach in there, and maybe it's 139 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 2: Brian Flores, maybe you bring in Brian Dable offensive coordinator. Man. 140 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 2: There's a lot of conversation out there, and Brian Flores 141 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 2: hopefully gets another chance to be a head coach, and 142 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 2: Tom's got a relationship with him. But I know it's 143 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 2: easy to start looking at the playoffs, certainly college football playoffs. 144 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 2: But some of these moves that were made yesterday or 145 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 2: weren't made yesterday. That's that's the conversation that I wanted 146 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 2: to have today. I did watch football last night. I 147 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 2: thought it was perfect placement finally for the FCS championship game. 148 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 2: Montana State Illinois State. 149 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 3: Wonderful. 150 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 2: It wasn't great football, but it was wonderful that they 151 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 2: played in Nashville. You got a big stage, the exciting 152 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 2: fourth quarter, went into overtime, Montana State ends up winning. 153 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 2: Paulie and I have been railing on TV and the 154 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 2: FCS for years of you know, it's like hiding in 155 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 2: playing sight, like why is this game on a Sunday 156 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 2: afternoon at two o'clock during the NFL season? 157 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 5: Witness protection? 158 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 3: Yes, stand alone, Let people see this. 159 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 2: Granted, most of these kids aren't playing in the NFL, 160 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 2: but it was exciting and they deserve to have the stage. 161 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, Pauline and. 162 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 7: We were talking about it before. I'll bet you ninety 163 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 7: percent of the people who tune in last night were 164 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 7: conditioned to watch Monday night football NFL and said, where's 165 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 7: the football? Oh, ESPN, there's a football game. I'll quickly 166 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 7: learn about these two teams and then you quickly get 167 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 7: invested and it's a shootout and it's overtime, and they'll 168 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,839 Speaker 7: probably not watch anything like this again for a while. 169 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 2: No, and you probably won't even remember this next year. 170 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 2: But in the moment, it was exciting, it was fun, 171 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 2: and it went into overtime to decide a championship. A 172 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 2: couple of the betting lines have changed since yesterday. I 173 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 2: erroneously told you that the Rams were giving ten to 174 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: the Panthers yesterday. Turns out they are giving ten to 175 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 2: the Panthers. It was nine and a half yesterday, it 176 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 2: went up to ten. The Packers are now moved the line. 177 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 2: I didn't Apparently I moved the line. Yes, the Packers 178 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 2: are getting one and a half against the Bears. At 179 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:18,199 Speaker 2: the Bears they were favored by one and a half yesterday. 180 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 2: You also had the Niners. They're getting four and a half. 181 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 2: They were getting three and a half yesterday against Philadelphia 182 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 2: and the Texans. They were giving three and a half 183 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 2: to the Steelers yesterday. Now they're only giving three. A 184 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 2: little bit of a change with Oregon in Indiana. Oregon 185 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 2: was getting four, now they're getting three and a half. 186 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 2: Miami is still a three and a half point favorite 187 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 2: against Old Miss. All right, see pole question today. 188 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 4: Well, I'm kind of working out pole questions based on 189 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 4: what you were just talking about there. If we rank 190 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 4: the six head coaching jobs that are currently open, we 191 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 4: could start with the Arizona Cardinals. 192 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 2: The Cardinals have one playoff appearance playoff wins in the 193 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 2: last ten years, The Raiders two playoff appearances, no playoff wins, 194 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 2: the Browns two playoff appearances, they do have a playoff win, 195 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,199 Speaker 2: the Giants two playoff appearances the last ten years, one 196 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 2: playoff win, Falcons two playoff appearances, three playoff wins, and 197 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 2: the Titans four playoff appearances, three playoff wins. So that's 198 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 2: the last ten years for these teams that have openings. 199 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 4: All right, Seeden, I'm just saying, I don't know what 200 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 4: happened or how he's ended up playing this long, but 201 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 4: give Buddha Baker some type of bonus just for sticking 202 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 4: it out this long. 203 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 3: It feels like. 204 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 4: He's been there for eighteen straight years and none of 205 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 4: those have been good years for that team. But he's 206 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 4: a good player. But give that fella a like loyalty bonus. 207 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 2: Isn't he known for just one highlight? What did he 208 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 2: get caught by dk PC? I think he's just like 209 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 2: a seven time pro bowler. 210 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, Todd. 211 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 8: Besides things like do you have your quarterback and salary 212 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 8: cap and things like this and even the weather, how 213 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 8: much do you look at the current divisions like as 214 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 8: far as to me, like the Falcons to me would 215 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 8: be best in Cardinals' worst, you know, opportunities, because the 216 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 8: Falcons are in a very winnable weak NFC South if 217 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 8: nothing else, and the Cardinals, look, look what they're the 218 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 8: three teams the NFC West are doing with winning almost 219 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 8: every single game this year. That doesn't look like the 220 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 8: Cardinals can chase any of those anytime soon. 221 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 2: No, but they do have some pieces there. They should 222 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 2: have a really good passing game. I mean, Marvin Harrison Junior, 223 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 2: the third I thought was going to be plug him 224 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 2: in for a thousand yards and you know, one hundred catches. 225 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 2: But they do have maybe the best receiving tight end 226 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 2: in football. 227 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 3: Wilson has been good. 228 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 2: It's just you know, I look at ownership because look, 229 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 2: quarterbacks get blame, coaches get blamed, gms get blame. You know, 230 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 2: the owners, they get to stand back, sit back. You're 231 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 2: the constant. Jimmy Haslam is the constant there in Cleveland, 232 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 2: bid Well in Arizona, the constant Ross in Miami with 233 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 2: the Dolphins, Marra family with the you know it, Woody 234 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 2: Johnson with the Jets. I mean that those are the constants. 235 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 2: That's where I start. You guys, Yeah, you can build 236 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 2: a business. This isn't that kind of I'm gonna build 237 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 2: a business. I'll just spend as much money as I 238 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,959 Speaker 2: want just to have Steve Cohen with the Mets. Hey, 239 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 2: we're gonna spend a lot of money. Okay, good luck, Yeah, Pauline. 240 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 7: The Arizona Cardinals, like you said, they got McBride and 241 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 7: Harrison Kyler Murray is still there and he's old, thirty 242 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 7: six million dollars. Next year they could probably buy him 243 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 7: out and then they're done with him. The problem with 244 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 7: them they have the third overall draft pick. And if 245 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 7: you think that the first two teams, Vegas and the 246 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 7: New York Jets are taking quarterbacks, you could be out 247 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 7: of luck there. 248 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 3: Well, it depends on what happens. 249 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 2: Who wants to go up and get see this is 250 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:02,079 Speaker 2: every year we go man that quarterback more. Fernando Mendoza. 251 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 2: I know they all look great. Every year we build 252 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 2: those quarterbacks up and we go, man, that guy he 253 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 2: can really play. Although I sounded like John Gruden, it 254 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 2: doesn't mean that they can play. And you can go 255 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 2: to a bad organization like the Jets and like the Raiders. 256 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 2: A lot of talented quarterbacks coming out of college have 257 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 2: gone to bad situations. Dante Moore appears to be the 258 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 2: real deal, Fernando Mendoza Heisman Trophy winner. But sometimes you 259 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 2: go to these organizations and then all of a sudden 260 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 2: you're losing. You're not used to losing. You get bad habits. 261 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 2: Coaches change, offensive coordinators change, offensive philosophy changes. Like if 262 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence doesn't get Liam Cohen, I wonder about his career. 263 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 2: I think he's been that impactful. Like you know, the 264 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 2: word bust was coming up with Trevor Lawrence. Now, like 265 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 2: this has been an incredible turnaround. By getting the right 266 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 2: guy for you, that's the key, and at that position, 267 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 2: it's the most important position in all of sports. And 268 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 2: we somehow go, hey, Trevor, get through the Urban Meyer mess. Okay, 269 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 2: Now he's got a guy who's an offensive minded coach 270 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 2: who did a great job in Tampa and is doing 271 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 2: a great job in Jacksonville. But that's the difficult part 272 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 2: sometimes is who Ben Johnson. The Bears got their guy, 273 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 2: they got it right. The Jets, I don't know if 274 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 2: they got it right. If I was Aaron Glenn, I'd 275 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 2: have that phone yesterday. I'd be like, I don't know 276 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 2: who is that? Oh okay, Like the Jets are patient 277 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 2: because Aaron Glenn, that team look like they quit. And 278 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 2: this is a defensive minded head coach. You didn't have 279 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 2: one interception, like accidentally, it's remarkable, but you got the 280 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 2: juxtaposition of Ben Johnson. He waited for the right opportunity 281 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 2: and he got his quarterback. He got a young team, 282 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 2: They took advantage of a division that was sort of 283 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 2: up and down. Nobody great, but the Jets they got 284 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 2: their guy. They don't have their quarterback. 285 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 9: Yes, Ma, but I'm going to disagree with you on 286 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 9: the Jets. I don't think they quit. I just think 287 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 9: they were sorry. I think there's a big difference. 288 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 3: So they weren't good enough to quit. 289 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 9: No, Okay, you watch that Bills game, and I watched it, 290 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 9: unfortunately I did. 291 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, the same year the Jets didn't have an interceptional season, 292 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 4: they traded away a Superstar corner. 293 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, Todd. 294 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 8: If you're Aaron Glenn, do you let a family member 295 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 8: into the phone at intertep the phone calls, you could 296 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 8: say something, Wow, I'm gonna give you a blue one. 297 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 4: No, Zach Taylor sitting there and the phone keeps buzzing. 298 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 2: Oh crap. Yeah, but that's I'm not surprised the Bengals 299 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 2: kept him. 300 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 3: I'm not. I'm not really, it's the Bengals. 301 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 4: Really, yes, man, that is if we're doing six coaches, 302 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 4: I'm surprised they didn't. 303 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 3: Get cam Yeah he is, oh, I thought. 304 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 2: But you know they're probably saying, hey, Joe Burrow coming 305 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 2: back healthy. But you know they Barvin Lewis kept his 306 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 2: job for fifteen years. They were like, well, I don't know, 307 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 2: somebody's gotta want to coach us. He does, all right, 308 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 2: keep him in there, yes, Mark. 309 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:36,959 Speaker 6: That'd be my favorite thing. 310 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 9: Looking at a list of longest tenure head coaches, it 311 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 9: will be Bill Belichick than Marvin Lewis. 312 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 3: Like, really, he's still there. 313 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 2: We'll take a break.

You can look at 337 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 2: your team. You can employ your team too. Let's make 338 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 2: a change. Okay, the Steelers, you make a change. They 339 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 2: lose this weekend. Who you bringing in the Ravens? Do 340 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 2: you bring it in somebody better than John Harbaugh? And 341 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 2: I know sometimes you need change, but I don't like 342 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 2: change for change sake. I think you got to be careful. 343 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 2: And you know, we always feel like the next guy 344 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 2: is going to be better, and that's not always the case. 345 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 2: The next quarterback is going to be better, not always 346 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 2: the case. Mike Tannen mom he's been in these battles. ESPN, 347 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 2: NFL Front Office Insider. You can see him on Get 348 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 2: Up SportsCenter, NFL Live. Let's look at the six openings. 349 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 2: Let's start with the worst opening. 350 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 6: I would say Arizona. 351 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 11: Dan give them the fact that the uncertainty of Kyler Murray, 352 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 11: the number of good young players on the contract. I 353 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 11: think Marvin Harrison could be a superstar. Trade McBride's a 354 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 11: very good player, but beyond that, I think there's a 355 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 11: lot more questions than answers in Arizona. 356 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 3: All right, Next on the list, be well, I. 357 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 11: Would say Vegas, But like that cuts both ways because 358 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 11: if you get Fernando Mendoza, in my opinion, someone like 359 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 11: Kurt Signetti, who I think would be a fascinating higher 360 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 11: that could be truly transformational. 361 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 6: So we'll see how that goes. 362 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of way Wait, hold on, 363 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 2: hold on, you're talking about a package deal for the 364 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:23,920 Speaker 2: Raiders with Kurt Signetti. 365 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 6: Dan, who says no? Who says no? 366 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 11: When you go back over the last forty years and 367 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 11: nobody knows this better than you do in North American sports, 368 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 11: and you think about the transformational coaching jobs. When you're 369 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 11: talking about Mike Kiescheski leaving West Point and creating Duke basketball. 370 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 11: You could talk about Jim Calhoun going from Northeastern to 371 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 11: Yukon men's basketball. You could talk about Gino Ariama and 372 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 11: women's basketball. But when you think about where they've been 373 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 11: for over one hundred years and what he's done in 374 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 11: two years. And I say this a lot. The data 375 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:56,160 Speaker 11: is overwhelming that college coaches fail. But what in Kurt 376 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,120 Speaker 11: Signetti's background would lead you to believe that he wouldn't 377 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 11: be successful. 378 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 2: I always look at style. You know that style works 379 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 2: in college? Does it work you know with pro players? 380 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 2: So that would be the first thing I would say. 381 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 11: Dan, you're a form professional baseball player. You gravitated the 382 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,239 Speaker 11: coaches who made you better. That would ultimately make you 383 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 11: more money. And there's a lot of different styles that 384 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 11: work in the NFL across the board. And if Kurt 385 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 11: Signetti walked into that building with the credibility has and 386 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 11: he's won at Indiana University in Pennsylvania, he's one at 387 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 11: James Madison, he won at Indiana where no one's ever 388 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 11: won before. If I'm a player, this man may be 389 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 11: able to put more money in my pocket. 390 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 6: I'm gonna give him a chance. 391 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 3: Okay, Next on that coaching vacancy list. 392 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 11: You know Cleveland. I look, look, the situation of Cleveland 393 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 11: is they have some good young players. You know, they 394 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 11: had a productive draft this year. Carson Schwassinger. I think 395 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 11: Quinn Shawn Jenkins will be a good player. Harold Fannons 396 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 11: should be a good player. But the offensive line isn't 397 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 11: where one was. And obviously the quarterback position has massive 398 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 11: question marks. From Deshaun Watson Shador Sanders, who I'd liked 399 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 11: a lot. I thought he was a second round pick 400 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 11: coming out, but there's a lot of questions about who's 401 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 11: going to be quarterback there. So that's why to me, 402 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 11: Vegas and Cleveland have their challenges. 403 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 2: Okay, why isn't hit. The elephant is in the room 404 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 2: and it's Deshaun Watson. If he was practicing with the team, 405 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 2: he's under contract. Is he going to get a chance 406 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,359 Speaker 2: to be the starting quarterback for the Browns next season? 407 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 6: You know? 408 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,199 Speaker 11: Possibly, but he's a band aid because he's finally you know, 409 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 11: they're over the guaranteed money next year. So possibly, but 410 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 11: we need if you and I are running the Browns, 411 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 11: job one, two and three is to get that position solidified. 412 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 11: Dylan Gabriel is a two probably a three Chador maybe 413 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 11: a French starter. 414 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 6: What do we have there? 415 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 11: And does Deshaun Watson help us get the new coach established? Possibly, 416 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 11: but at the end of day, we got to go 417 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 11: get a new quarterback. 418 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, but man, that job. 419 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 2: As much as you get a great fan base and 420 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:00,200 Speaker 2: you do have some talent there, you're still walking into 421 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 2: a situation where ownership or GM decided they were gonna 422 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 2: go rogue with you know, their quarterbacks, and you can't 423 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 2: have two rookie quarterbacks. I mean that, That to me 424 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 2: is malpractice with the Cleveland Browns. 425 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 11: I understand. I look, Schador may make it, you know, 426 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:20,679 Speaker 11: he certainly can't. I'm just saying, let's not put our 427 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 11: eggs in his basket. Let's go get another one. That's 428 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 11: why I think that's in the bottom of the six jobs. 429 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 11: That's still to be in the bottom tier. 430 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 3: All right. 431 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 11: Next on the list, I would go with the Giants. 432 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 11: I like Jackson Dart a little concerned about his completion 433 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 11: percentage was near the bottom this year, twenty seventh heading 434 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 11: until last game. Obviously, he has to learn how to 435 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 11: take better care of himself. 436 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 6: Now I live that. 437 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,640 Speaker 11: Ironically, in New York, we brought in Joe Girardi, who 438 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 11: at the time was the manager of the Yankees, to 439 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 11: work with Mark Sanchez on a protection plan. Learn how 440 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 11: to slide, learn how to shift your body weight. So 441 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,439 Speaker 11: I think that's a skill you can learn and one 442 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 11: of the things I would tell all these young quarterbacks, 443 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 11: Cam Wore, Jayden Daniels, Jackson Dart. Part of the evaluation 444 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 11: process of you being a great player is a protection 445 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,880 Speaker 11: plan you need to have because your availability is part 446 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 11: and parcel in the value you bring to this team. 447 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 2: You needed somebody to teach Mark Sanchez how to slide. 448 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 11: Rex Ryan brought in Girardi, and it actually was an 449 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 11: incredible afternoon because it really I think helped Mark become 450 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 11: a better He protected himself better after we met with Girardi. 451 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 11: It's a skill, Dan, Look, you're a baseball player, you 452 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 11: would know it better than most football coaches. But obviously 453 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 11: the nuances of one to go out of bounds, you know, 454 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 11: obviously there was that big hit in the New England game. 455 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,639 Speaker 11: Like he'll learn from that. But it is a skill 456 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 11: to understand how you protect yourself. Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, 457 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 11: those guys knew when to throw it away, they knew 458 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 11: when to go down like they played for a long time. 459 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 11: And Jackson dart it's a skill that he could get 460 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 11: better at, but that's something he has to work at. 461 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, but he has to understand that. 462 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 2: You know that his mindset, he can he can know 463 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:01,159 Speaker 2: how to slide, Mike, but he has to want to slide. 464 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 3: That's the biggest problem I see with Jackson Dart. 465 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 11: Well, the head coach has to make it part of 466 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 11: your job description. If you want to play football here, 467 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 11: if you want to be your starting quarterback, you will slide. 468 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 11: If you take unnecessary and reckless it's either you're going 469 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 11: to get bench or you're gonna get hurt. So either 470 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 11: one of them is going to make you not on 471 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,120 Speaker 11: the field. So let's come up with a plan where 472 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 11: you could be aggressive. There's times to dive, there's times 473 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 11: to go head first, third down, end zone, fourth down, 474 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 11: but there's also times where you got to lift to 475 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 11: fight another down, and typically that comes with experienced maturity. 476 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 11: I think he'll get there. 477 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 3: The best opening then is. 478 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 11: Oh, well, you know, you look at Atlanta and Tennessee. 479 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 11: I will put Tennessee first. I think when cam Ward 480 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 11: has attribute you can't see, when you're successful at Incarnati 481 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 11: get word in Washington State and then at Miami. The 482 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 11: thing that was most impressive to be was at the 483 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 11: combine last year talking to cam Ward's teammates, and he 484 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 11: has attribute you can't see. So I'm betting on the 485 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 11: character cam Ward. Look, Dan Moore was horrific at left 486 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 11: tackle this year. Kevin Zeitler's close to the end. They're 487 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 11: gonna have to fix the offensive line, but they have 488 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 11: the quarterback. They have a brand new stadium that's basically 489 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 11: being you know, renovated there. I think nashvill is a 490 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 11: great place to attract people. I certainly think that's the 491 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 11: best job available. 492 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 3: Explain to me the Falcons. 493 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 11: Yeah, well, you know, Penniswood Healthy is a great player. 494 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 11: I think he's somebody that can be a franchise quarterback. Now, look, 495 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,160 Speaker 11: he's had multiple ACL injuries. I would keep Kirk Cousins. 496 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 11: They have great young talent, Vision Robinson, obviously, Drake London. 497 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 11: Kyle Pitts has been somewhat inconsistent. To me, that's the 498 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 11: second best job, just given you know, all that young talent. 499 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 6: Kenley. 500 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 11: I was a little surprised, you know that Raheem was 501 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,439 Speaker 11: let go given that any one four straight. But you know, 502 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 11: I understand two non playoff seasons and the standards are high. 503 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 3: There is there a hot coaching candidate. 504 00:26:55,240 --> 00:27:00,040 Speaker 11: Besides the aforementioned mister Signetti. Look, I think there's a 505 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 11: bunch of guys that would be really, really good. Look, 506 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 11: Kevin Stefanski to me, has you know, a good track 507 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 11: record and certainly deserves, you know, the opportunity to be 508 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 11: in the mix here. There's a number of good coordinators 509 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 11: Luyne and Rumo, Jeff Hafley, Anthony Campdinelli, amongst others. And 510 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 11: I don't believe in the dogma of oh well we 511 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 11: got a quarterback, we got to go get an offensive coach. 512 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,959 Speaker 11: Necessarily Look at Mike Grabil, look at Mike McDonald. Two 513 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 11: of the best coaches in the league come from the 514 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 11: defensive side of the ball. 515 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you're just everybody wants to move on 516 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 2: from their coach, like that's going to solve everything. But 517 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 2: it doesn't, because like the Steelers with Mike Tomlin and 518 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 2: the Ravens with John Harball, these are Hall of fame 519 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 2: head coaches that you're moving on from. And I just 520 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 2: I said this before, I don't believe in change, you know, 521 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 2: just for the sake of change, Like I got to know, Okay, 522 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,880 Speaker 2: what am I getting? I know, maybe what I'm losing, 523 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:55,439 Speaker 2: but what am I getting? You know, to replace these guys? 524 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 2: If you would have to. 525 00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 6: Dan, that's very prescient. 526 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 11: And the two questions I would always ask anybody running 527 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 11: a football team is who are we going to get? 528 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 11: And how much is it going to cost? And typically 529 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,160 Speaker 11: when you talk about players, you're talking about cap dollars 530 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,679 Speaker 11: or draft choices. So, hey, you know, we take this 531 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 11: quarterback stinks, Okay, here are the five that are out there. 532 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,119 Speaker 11: Who do we think is better? What's the cost? And 533 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,120 Speaker 11: then likewise, as it relates to you know, changing coaches, 534 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 11: you're right, like, and again I'm a big data guy, 535 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 11: Like the data is overwhelmingly against a college coach. That's 536 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 11: not to say that there could be a good college coach, 537 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 11: but that just means, like, you know, the sign we 538 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 11: always had up in the office was in God, we 539 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,439 Speaker 11: trust for everyone else, we need data. So if we're 540 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,719 Speaker 11: going to go down that that that you know that 541 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 11: whole Dan, we got to ask more questions, get good information, 542 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 11: and then make the best decision. But you're right, it's 543 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 11: a lot easier to indiscriminately let a quarterback go, a 544 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 11: head coach go, a GM go, and then realize, oh, 545 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 11: well wait a second, you know, like be careful what 546 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 11: you wish for the replacement isn't a certainty. 547 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 3: How do you fire a coach? 548 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 6: Yeah? 549 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 11: I think you know, there's a great book called Radical 550 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 11: Candor and talks about as a manager, if someone is surprised, 551 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 11: if when they're let go, that means you've done a 552 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 11: bad job managing them. So I think, and I think 553 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 11: the people that I've worked with over time would say this, 554 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 11: you have to have real conversations consistently about where we're 555 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 11: falling short and what we need to do to fix it. 556 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 11: So a coach shouldn't be surprised if they're fired. That 557 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 11: means you know, me as the GM or you know, 558 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 11: president of football Operations, the owner, whoever it may be. 559 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 11: You know, it's really on them to allow people they've hired. 560 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 11: So you've got to believe in the process of you know, 561 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 11: why you brought them in originally, why you brought them in, 562 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 11: and then if they're not living up to that standard, 563 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 11: how they could fix it. 564 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 2: Everybody got fired yesterday, What what does it mean if, like, 565 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 2: is everybody now safe as we move forward into this week? 566 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 11: Yeah, well, I think last year was instructive, Dan, No, 567 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 11: you know, last year Trent Balkey came out and was 568 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 11: the GM of the JAB Warris leading the search. Obviously, 569 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 11: Liam Comb made a great initial impression on you know, 570 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 11: ownership in Jacksonville. Liam Comb pulled out of the search 571 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 11: and then they let Trent Balke go and the rest 572 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 11: is history. So I think we've probably seen all the changes, 573 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 11: but you never know, and you know that's what's so 574 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 11: great about the NFL, Like every day it could bring 575 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:21,959 Speaker 11: something new, So we'll see what happens. 576 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 3: Good to talk to you as always, Mike, Thank you. 577 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 6: All right, Thanks so much, for having me dain. 578 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 2: Mike Tannenbaum, ESPN NFL Front Office Insider. You can see 579 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 2: him on various ESPN programs including Get Up, Sports Center 580 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 2: and NFL Live. 581 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 3: And he's such a bright mind when it comes to this. 582 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 2: And he's been in a couple of different organizations in 583 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 2: the front office and trying to find that coach, trying 584 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 2: to find that quarterback, dealing with your GM, dealing with ownership. 585 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 2: You know, once again, it's rare when an owner doesn't 586 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 2: feel like he's the smartest guy in the building. It's 587 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 2: really rare when an owner lets the people he hires 588 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 2: do their job. And that's where I usually look at 589 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 2: stability with an organization. You know, you get the owner 590 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 2: who wants to be involved. You know, Jerry Jones is 591 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 2: too involved. You know, I love his passion. I think 592 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 2: that he's actually a little bit underrated as an owner 593 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 2: GM here in the last twenty five years from the 594 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 2: standpoint of he has done some good things, but he's 595 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 2: just too involved. He is a positive and a negative, 596 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 2: and I don't want that from ownership. I don't need 597 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 2: to have that guy hold a press conference. I don't 598 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 2: need for him to lecture me on football because chances 599 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:38,959 Speaker 2: are he didn't earn his billions playing football. I mean, 600 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 2: Jerry Jones played college football at Arkansas. That doesn't mean 601 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 2: he knows more football than most people. He is a 602 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 2: great businessman. He does know how to do that as 603 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 2: well as any owner in NFL history. 604 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 3: Yes, Marv, you. 605 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 9: Hit it on the head. He thinks he's a football 606 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 9: guy that became a billionaire. He's like, the rest of 607 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 9: you owners are billionaires, and then you just started owning 608 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 9: a football team. I played on the National Championshire team. 609 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 9: He thinks he's a foot Maybe he might be, but 610 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 9: he played at Arkansas, so he's like, no, no, I'm 611 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 9: a football guy. 612 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 6: The rest of y'all are just rich. 613 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 2: Yeah I know, I know, but if you're around these guys, 614 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 2: I've never met a billionaire who didn't think he was 615 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 2: smarter than everybody in the room. 616 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 3: I got a billion, what do you got? I must 617 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 3: be smarter than you, yes, Paul. 618 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 7: At least Jerry Jones, though, did play some big time 619 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 7: football and it did help him With Jimmy Johnson. There's 620 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 7: owners who seem like they don't know anything about sports 621 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 7: that are making sports decisions. 622 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 5: Those are the scary guys. 623 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 3: We'll take a break or Play of the day is up. 624 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 2: Next, we'll talk to the new Michigan head coach, Kyle Whittingham, 625 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 2: and also Reggie Miller will stop by as well. 626 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: We're back after this.

Now this isn't a report. He's just saying, Hey, 651 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 2: if I'm d a Raider ownership, I'm going to make 652 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 2: a run at that, maybe as a package deal. 653 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 3: I mean, why not get. 654 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 2: Tom Brady on the phone, go talk to Kurt Signetti 655 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 2: and maybe say, hey, is this something you'd be interested in? 656 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 2: It'd be his last chance, probably to coach in the NFL. 657 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 2: What is he sixty four years of age? You're taking 658 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 2: your team if they win a national championship. Seems I 659 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 2: didn't even I didn't even put it close to being 660 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 2: on my radar because he's got he signed that what 661 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 2: nine year extension, and you're thinking, all right, look at 662 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:52,879 Speaker 2: what he's done one of the more incredible comebacks. Well, 663 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 2: they didn't come back from anything. They were never anything 664 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:59,320 Speaker 2: to come back from. He built something out of nothing. 665 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 3: And and you. 666 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 2: Know, it's one of the great college football stories that 667 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 2: we've had in a long long time. And it's nothing 668 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 2: nefarious about it. There's no scandal attached to this. He 669 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 2: just came in just like he did at James Madison, 670 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 2: all of his stops, and he created teams that win 671 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 2: and they're favored to win the national championship. But do 672 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 2: you want that next challenge? See this is where I 673 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,000 Speaker 2: could see somebody who has been coaching college football at 674 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 2: a high level for a long time. Now you're dealing 675 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 2: with nil and collectives and just everything that goes into this. 676 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 2: This isn't just hey, we recruit and we coach. Now 677 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 2: it's we recruit, transfer portal, who we keeping, who's staying? 678 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,799 Speaker 2: How much money. I'll talk to Kyle Whittingham about this. 679 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 2: You know he's been around, He's sixty six taking the 680 00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 2: Michigan job. Meanwhile, you see some of these coaches who 681 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 2: say I'm done. Saban didn't want to put up with 682 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 2: it anymore. Dabo Sweeney kind of kicking and screaming with this. 683 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 2: Jay Wright at Villanova, like, these guys get to a 684 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 2: point where they go, I. 685 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 3: Don't want to deal with this. 686 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 2: So almost the NFL doesn't give you as much stability, 687 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 2: but you don't have to worry about all the ancillary stuff. 688 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 2: But that would be a shocker if Kurt Signetti would 689 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 2: be interested in the Raiders, not the other way around. 690 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,759 Speaker 7: Yeah, Paul, I'm not sure the Raiders could afford Kurt 691 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 7: Signetti at this point. I don't know if they would 692 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 7: give him a pay raise. They owe Antonio Pierce, they 693 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 7: owe Pete Carroll. Signetti got a one million dollar bonus 694 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:35,320 Speaker 7: for winning the game last week. If he wins a 695 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 7: national title, it's another two million dollar bonus. Also, he's 696 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 7: also triggered a review of his contract that if he 697 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:45,280 Speaker 7: wins another game, he will have to be paid third 698 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 7: or higher highest paid coach in the country, which will 699 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,280 Speaker 7: bump his salary up another two million dollars going forward. 700 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 7: So you're looking at a guy who's gonna be making 701 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 7: fourteen a year at Indiana probably going forward. 702 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't see him leaving that situation. He's already 703 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 2: got a you know, another quarterback in waiting coming in. 704 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:04,239 Speaker 3: Yeah. I'd love to know. 705 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 4: Like, when you're going through that contract and you put 706 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 4: all of these escalators in there, they're like, yeah. 707 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 3: Go ahead, good luck. Hey, I'll be happy to pay 708 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 3: it if you can do it. Yeah ahead. 709 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,759 Speaker 2: I tried to put in my contract if I won 710 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,760 Speaker 2: Sports Sports Emmy for studio host. 711 00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 3: They wouldn't let me do it. 712 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 2: Because I wanted to do like a trigger of a 713 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 2: one hundred thousand dollars, and they wouldn't allow me to 714 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 2: put the language in. But you know, and I did 715 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 2: win it one time, and uh, I got gosh, and 716 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 2: that would have been nice. I think I was making 717 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,200 Speaker 2: a hundred thousand dollars at the time, so I would 718 00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 2: have I would have doubled my pay there at the 719 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:44,280 Speaker 2: mother Ship. 720 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,879 Speaker 3: All right, Nicole in Texas leads us off. 721 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:53,719 Speaker 12: Good morning, Nicole, Good morning Dan, five six and three 722 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 12: quarters and about eighty five pounds less than I used 723 00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:03,920 Speaker 12: to be.
