Speaker 1: you know, it's wherever you are, it's hot and sunny.

28
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 1: I love the summer. I'm more of a summer guy

29
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: than a winter I you know, when you're bald, you

30
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: need to get a tan. You can't be pasty. Uh

31
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: So I like the sun, but you gotta work sun screen.

32
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: The older you get your skin thins. That's what people

33
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: tell you at least. Uh Hey, John Big fan of

34
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: the show. Have a mail back question. I'm an l

35
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 1: A native that's Los Angeles, not Louisiana, and have noticed

36
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 1: that our pro teams have a win now mentality. The Lakers, Rams,

37
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 1: Dodgers all have given up plenty of draft capital and

38
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: young talent to achieve short term success. Do you think

39
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: this will cause l a sports dark age in the

40
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: next five years or so. Well, let's say that I

41
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: would put all three of these in separate categories. The

42
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 1: Dodgers built for the long haul. There is no salary cap,

43
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: they have an unlimited amount of money, and they have

44
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: star young players under contract. They also have young the

45
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: ability to make trades. Their GMS genius. They have been

46
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 1: kicking ass and taking names for like seven straight years.

47
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: So I would say I would not be worried about

48
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: the Dodgers in the slightest. They are a powerhouse. The

49
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 1: Lakers sold their soul for Lebron, and I think they

50
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: are royally you know what screwed because they traded all

51
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 1: their picks. Anthony Davis is a pretty overrated player because

52
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 1: he can't stay healthy. You got the owner, Genie buss

53
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: piste off in the l A times. It's like, Genie,

54
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? You listen to Kurt Rambis

55
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: and his wife. You have Rob Plink as your general manager.

56
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 1: The only reason your team is relevant is because one

57
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: of the greatest players in the history of the sport

58
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: chose to live in l A. Not because you were

59
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 1: well run. You weren't. Lebron chose to live in l A.

60
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: Other than that, like they're a clown show. They don't

61
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: have a coach. The Lakers are screwed. I think the

62
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: Lakers are you traded from Russell Westbrook who didn't think

63
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: that was gonna work? Literally everybody the Rams, like they

64
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 1: traded their soul for sweet players, Like the Jalen Ramsey

65
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: move was bold, but the Matt Stafford move was not.

66
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: To trade multiple first round picks and get rid of

67
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 1: Jared Gott from Matt Stafford. So to me, the Dodgers

68
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: are like a powerhouse college football team. They're not going

69
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:02,119
Speaker 1: anywhere the Rams. As long as Stafford is healthy, they're

70
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: gonna be competitive even if they have injuries. But if

71
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: they stay healthy, they're gonna be one of the best

72
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: teams in the league. The Lakers screwed. I also think,

73
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 1: like the nature of the West Coast, as we get

74
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: bored easy, you know that we're not This is not Philly, Boston,

75
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: New York. We're not gonna be with you in the

76
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 1: else We'll we'll watch Hulu, I'll watch TV like I

77
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 1: I would not watch the Warriors if they sucked. Are

78
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: we fair weather? Yeah, we got other ship to do. Now.

79
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: If you're competitive, I'll watch, But you can't be the

80
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: Lakers and have one of the worst records in the

81
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: league and expect that many people to care. What are

82
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 1: you doing up at five am? Sometimes I can't sleep.

83
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: I just posted something someone posted. Josh Brown of CNBC

84
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: posted this thing on Instagram of the McDonald's prices in

85
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 1: like two you get a milkshake for like twenty cents.

86
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: You get a cheeseburger for twenty two cents. Even though

87
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: it's completely irrelevant now, sometimes it's cool to see, Like God,

88
00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,080
Speaker 1: you get a cheeseburger and fries and a soda for

89
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,839
Speaker 1: sixty seven cents. Back in nineteen seventy two, my parents

90
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: were living well. I love the John lo the Pod Sandy.

91
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: I'm from San Diego, just from alex Between the Celtics

92
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: and the Packers, who is the biggest underachieving team in

93
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 1: recent years with their respective leaks. I'm a college kid,

94
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: so the Packers have had Aaron since I can remember,

95
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: and the Celtics have had their run of stars and

96
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: solid rosters, but both teams seem to crash in the playoffs.

97
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,359
Speaker 1: Give me some real mid two thousand Charger vibes. Just

98
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 1: wanted to know to me, the Celtics, I mean, Garnett

99
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: got hurt at in the late two thousands, or they

100
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 1: probably win another one like Tatum Brown, Like, come on,

101
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: I mean, they're these guys are twenty four years old.

102
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 1: It's Aaron Rodgers. I mean, he's one of the greatest

103
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: quarterbacks of all time. I was talking to someone about

104
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: this the other day. Aaron Rodgers, you know, is one

105
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: of the most talented players if you're over like thirty five,

106
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 1: we've all ever seen, Right, He's on the short list

107
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: of just pure talents. But his contemporary obviously Brady's in

108
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: his own world. But even Peyton Manning. Peyton Manning got

109
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,239
Speaker 1: to four Super Bowls, Aaron rodd has only been to one. Now,

110
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: he's still young, and he still could get to other ones,

111
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 1: like Brady had a second career at Aaron's age. But like,

112
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: he's got to get to another super Bowl. Even if

113
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: he loses it, it'll be pretty underwhelming if he only

114
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 1: gets to the one. I mean, he's been a bunch

115
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: of conference championship games. He just can't win it. So

116
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 1: to me, it's Aaron Rodgers. What's going on? John, keep

117
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: up the good work. Enjoy listening. On a scale of

118
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: one to ten, how concerns should Dolphins fan be of

119
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: their team's Twitter account posting a video of to underthrowing

120
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:39,159
Speaker 1: Tyreek by ten yards. I talked about this earlier this week,

121
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: Like I just can't believe the Dolphins posted that, Like

122
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: you just you can't post that video, Like you just

123
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: can't just post a shorter route. You cannot post a

124
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: video of Tyreek stopping. Tyreek basically went from a Ferrari

125
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: to like a mid size to Dan. I mean what,

126
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: we all know what's coming. This is going to be

127
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: a train wreck. But I I don't play him to

128
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: a for underthrowing Tyreek. Of course he underthrows Tyreek. He

129
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: doesn't have a big arm. I blame the Dolphins. You

130
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: cannot tweeting instagram that video. You can't do it because

131
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: he's not unfairly getting criticized. We all watched what happened.

132
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: We've also watched Tyreek Hill in the biggest games and

133
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 1: played for the biggest team in the league or one

134
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: of them, but consistently catch bombs where he runs under

135
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: the ball. And now he's with a quarterback that's not

136
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: gonna be able to do that. It's gonna be a

137
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: long season to Miami. Tom Brady two thousan quarterback of

138
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 1: the quarterback owner and Fox host Tom Brady. I'm a

139
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: high school dB coach at a small school in Oregon.

140
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: I always tell my guys to watch football more and

141
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: more to get more mental reps. Since you're next scout,

142
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: what's the one thing you recommend to all dbs to

143
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: watch while watching the pros or even top college dB ease? Thanks, Well,

144
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 1: I'm not necessarily a coach, so in terms of coaching

145
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: points about you know, back pedal and your hips, I

146
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: would say an underrated characteristic that always translates to dbs like,

147
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: you can't teach instincts. So I don't know if you

148
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 1: can watch as a sixteen year old kid a dB

149
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: like Jalen Ramsey or you know, Xavier Howard in Miami,

150
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 1: like if they have good instincts, Like that's not going

151
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: to translate to you. But I would say, if you're

152
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,719
Speaker 1: a willing tackler, like that is something you can control, right,

153
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: you can control tackling, you know, I could say, well

154
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 1: turn your head when the ball, you know, when the

155
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: receiver shoots his hands. Well, that's on the coach to

156
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: figure that out. I would say, just be willing tackler,

157
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 1: Just be willing to throw your body, even if you're

158
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: giving up catches. Just tackle most dbs, like not a

159
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: lot of them, like being physical and the ones that

160
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: will stand out because you know why a lot of

161
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 1: NFL teams run zone coverage. Now most of your kids

162
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 1: are gonna play in the NFL. But if you can

163
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: just be a zone corner because you'll tackle in the

164
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: open field, just tackle guys in underneath routes or be

165
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 1: a willing tackler, that's something you can control. Like you

166
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: can't control if you have bad hands. You can't control

167
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,839
Speaker 1: if your instincts are okay, hell, you can't even control

168
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: your speed, like if you're not that fast, But you

169
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 1: can control your ability to tackle, right, I mean other

170
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 1: stuff to me, part of a dB I always believed

171
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: and again I wasn't evalued. I mean, I guess I

172
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: evaluated guys in high school when I was a Friends

173
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 1: of the State is. I think instincts are just kind

174
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 1: of God given, you know, from when you're really young,

175
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 1: just being able to play the ball. You probably can

176
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: improve that when you're young. Hands you can't, like a

177
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: lot of guys play dB for a reason. They can't

178
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: catch speed, like you're either faster or not. Um you

179
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: know your size. It's something either got from God or not. Right,

180
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 1: most guys are not gonna be six two corners. But

181
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: I do think you can control your ability to tackle

182
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: and your willingness to tackle. I think that's an underrated part.

183
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: And if you can tackle, that means if you're a

184
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 1: good fleet they can put you inside because when you're

185
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 1: a nickel defender, you're basically, you know, a run help defender,

186
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: right because they're taking a linebacker off the field, they're

187
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: putting you on the field. So I wouldn't say, like,

188
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 1: we'll get his pedal. I mean, obviously that matters, but

189
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 1: depending on if he doesn't run a coverage that you're running,

190
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: who cares? Right if a guy presses, like, what's the

191
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: point of watching that if you're never gonna press. So

192
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 1: I I would say, keep it pretty simple. Be willing

193
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 1: to tackle. You don't need to be Ronnie Lott, you

194
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: don't need to hit him like you're Richard Sherman. Just

195
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: take the guy to the ground. You like that little

196
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: dB coaching point right there, Bill Belichick, If you could

197
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 1: interview any current NFL player or coach, who would it

198
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: be and what are a couple of questions that you

199
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:43,839
Speaker 1: would ask them. Let's assume they would give you a

200
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: straight and honest answer and not some Belichick and Stonewall answer. Well,

201
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: to me, if I could have one coach or player

202
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:56,239
Speaker 1: on the podcast, its assuming he would talk. Would be Belichick.

203
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I just I think that would be pretty good. Now,

204
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: he would never do that and he would never talk,

205
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,559
Speaker 1: so that's a stupid thing. I would say. I think

206
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan would be really good. Um, I think Mike

207
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 1: Tomlin would be pretty good. I would choose Peyton Manning honestly,

208
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: of all the guys. He's not a current player, but

209
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 1: I would say Peyton would be up there really really high. Um,

210
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:23,679
Speaker 1: it would be Peyton Manning, Tom Brady. I'm a Broncos fan.

211
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:25,439
Speaker 1: I'm trying to stay level headed when it comes to

212
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 1: the team this year. Is it super more bust for

213
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: the team or do you think given the team a

214
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: little leeway this season in order to allow them to

215
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: gain get on the same page is reasonable Personally, I

216
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 1: don't want to get too hyped up only to be

217
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 1: disappointed in January. It's not super Bowler bust. I don't

218
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 1: think there's a team in the NFL this season that

219
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 1: is super Bowler bust. Maybe Tampa just because Tom. I

220
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: mean this might be Tom's last season. I would say,

221
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: for you make the playoffs, you don't even need to

222
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,719
Speaker 1: win the division, just have play in a playoff game.

223
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:58,599
Speaker 1: If you get to the playoffs, if you have a

224
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 1: playoff level team with Russell will and you can win

225
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 1: a playoff game, how you could win a couple, how

226
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: you could win the a f C. I would say

227
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: playoffs are bust. Anything not the playoffs with your roster

228
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:12,319
Speaker 1: and the quarterback would be very disappointing. Super Bowl bus

229
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 1: no way, because you know you guys were super Bowl

230
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 1: bust when you had Peyton. That's not the case now.

231
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: I love I listen every day. I think your take

232
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: on what Pete said about Lock is wrong. Pete knows

233
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,959
Speaker 1: he isn't a good quarterback. He just spent ten years

234
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: with Russell Wilson and knows what a good quarterback looks like. Uh.

235
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 1: It's also said that he and uh John like Mahomes

236
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: and Allen and also drafted Wilson, meaning they know what

237
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 1: good quarterbacks look like. I think Pete saying what's best

238
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: for the team and the fans for now. But here's

239
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: the thing. The fans know that this is not nineteen.

240
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 1: This is not when my parents were kids and nuclear

241
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 1: war could break at at any moment. They told him

242
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 1: to get under the desk, and everyone's like, oh, that's

243
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 1: a good idea, right, this is not you. You can't

244
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,719
Speaker 1: tell me Drew Lock is good when he's not good, right,

245
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,680
Speaker 1: I mean, you just can't do it. I think Pete

246
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 1: saying was bet for the team. You're right, they will

247
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 1: be terrible, but don't think the outcome is a debacle.

248
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: I agree they want to be bad. I I mean

249
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: they don't want to be Pete wants to compete. Pete

250
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 1: does not want to lose four or five games, or

251
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 1: I mean win four or five games. He is not

252
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 1: trying to tank this season. I do not believe that

253
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: at all. He's seventy years old. So yeah, the best

254
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: outcome for sure is to get a top two or

255
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 1: three pick and draft one of the quarterbacks. I'm not

256
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: disagreeing with that mindset, but that is not Pete's mindset.

257
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 1: I don't believe that for a second he thinks that

258
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 1: they can compete with Drew Lock. I believe that deep

259
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 1: down to my core. I'm not just saying that to

260
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: say it, I do believe that John Snyder and Pete

261
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: Carroll like Drew lock a lot. I do. Who do

262
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 1: you think is the better season at wide receiver Tyree

263
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: Hill or Adams? I think both are down from last season. Yeah,

264
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 1: I mean, not even a question, Davante, not even a question.

265
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: I think Tyreek could have a chance to be disaster.

266
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 1: Not because of his own fault. He's still a great player,

267
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 1: but because of the quarterback. I'm curious your opinion on

268
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 1: the Cowboys this season and how you felt about their draft. Well,

269
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: their team got worse. That's not not really debatable, right.

270
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: They lost Randy Gregory, excellent pass rusher. They lost Amari Cooper,

271
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: who can be underwhelming, but who was very, very productive

272
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: for them. That's a problem, Like losing these players is

273
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: an issue for them. They lost several offensive linement. Now

274
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 1: they drafted one and Jerry had to defend him, and

275
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: who knows, maybe they have a long history of drafting

276
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: really good offensive linement. I'll give him the benefit of doubt.

277
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: They still have Zeke Ellid on their team, meaning he's

278
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: still gonna get a ton of carries. I I think

279
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: the Cowboys got worse now. Is Jalen Hurts good enough

280
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: to pass them? I can't say that with a straight face,

281
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: but I do think the Eagles can win the division

282
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: if Jalen Hurts is good now. And you, if you

283
00:14:58,400 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: listen to me for a while. I'm not a big

284
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 1: Jailan It's guy, but I think the Cowboys are worse,

285
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: and I think as we saw in the playoffs, they

286
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 1: might have even been a little overrated last year. I

287
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: want to be an SEC dad. My daughter applies to

288
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 1: colleges this summer, which five s C schools should top

289
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 1: her list? Continued success Brent from Orlando. Well, I don't

290
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 1: know how good her grades are. Obviously, to me, Vanderbilt

291
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 1: would be would change her life, you know, in terms

292
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 1: of you go to Vanderbilt, it's like Northwestern, It's like Stanford.

293
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: She'll she'll be buying you guys beach houses in like

294
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: ten years if we if we remove them from the equation.

295
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: Here would be my outside view, and listen, I have

296
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: a lot of like older friends, people in they're late

297
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 1: mid forties with kids now like entering junior high in

298
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: high school, and obviously they're friends with some people that

299
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 1: have kids in high school that we can't get into

300
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 1: schools out here. It's it's I went to cal Pauly,

301
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: which is a good academic school. There's no way on

302
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: God's green Earth that get in there now. Like San

303
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: Diego State, it's hard to get into, let alone all

304
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 1: the U S schools. I know a ton of people

305
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: that are applying to Alabama, L s u Ole, miss Florida, Georgia.

306
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 1: I would say I would go sabings Old, so he's

307
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: not gonna be there forever. I would probably go Florida one,

308
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 1: Georgia two, Alabama three. I think Kentucky might be underrated.

309
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: I I put Kentucky Kentucky up there. I don't know

310
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 1: if I'd love living in Mississippi, so I would probably

311
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 1: take all miss out l S. You would be pretty

312
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 1: fun to just say you'd be an l s U grad.

313
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 1: I mean, do we count Oklahoma in Texas because if

314
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: we count those, you know, I Texas would have to

315
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 1: be in the mix. But I would say Florida, I'd

316
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 1: say Georgia, I'd say Obama, Kentucky. You know, some people

317
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 1: would argue Tennessee, UM Arkansas probably not though good athletic program. Yeah,

318
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 1: that would probably be my solid top four. I think

319
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 1: the fifth would be debatable. There'd be a big drop

320
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:18,159
Speaker 1: off from me after four, so it would be Florida, Georgia, Bama,

321
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 1: Kentucky hey Man shout out for the pod A new

322
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 1: podcaster here. What do you recommend on a startup sports

323
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,959
Speaker 1: podcast and what's the most important thing to keep and

324
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,439
Speaker 1: make it relevant? Well, your competition is high, so the

325
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:36,919
Speaker 1: supply demand The supply is pretty high. Right. There's obviously

326
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: a big demand for audio and sports podcasts because there

327
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 1: are a lot doing well, but there's also a lot

328
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 1: that you know, don't really make any hay, So you

329
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 1: gotta find a way to differentiate. I would stay try

330
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: to be unique, and to me, unique is just being yourself.

331
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 1: Don't try to copy anybody, just do what comes naturally

332
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 1: to you. And then I guess you gotta be active

333
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,639
Speaker 1: on YouTube and Instagram. You gotta kind of put yourself

334
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: out there, you know, which you know it's not easy

335
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 1: for everyone, honestly, it's not. I I don't love that

336
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: part of it, but it's just part of the deal. Uh,

337
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: that's probably. And and make sure your audio sounds good.

338
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 1: Don't have poor audio because no one's gonna listen If

339
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 1: you have bad audio, that's that's the that's that's the

340
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 1: base of what you're doing. How you sound. I'm not

341
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: talking about your voice. I'm just talking about the equipment

342
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: you use, the programs you use. Don't buy some ten

343
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,159
Speaker 1: dollar my USB Mike. If you really want to do

344
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 1: it right, you know, spend you gotta spend a little money.

345
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 1: Takes money to make money. Started listening about a year ago,

346
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 1: haven't looked back. I feel like the Giants have done

347
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 1: a good job starting to rebuild with the draft this year,

348
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 1: picking guys in the trenches and releasing Bradberry for cap space.

349
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 1: How long do you think Shane and Brian day Ball

350
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,920
Speaker 1: get for a full rebuild. It always feels like team

351
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 1: don't give gms and coaches enough time. We're gonna need

352
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: a quarterback. I think Daniel Jones a dead man walking.

353
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: He didn't get his five year option picked up. They're

354
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: gonna have a new quarterback next year. I would expect

355
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 1: that quarterback to be someone in the draft. So I

356
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 1: think this year is like a bottom out year. Think

357
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: and what I think the mode, the model they're gonna copy, Bills,

358
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 1: Brandon Bean, Sean McDermott. Bottom out I think that's the

359
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 1: move you want to bottom out to then take three

360
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,919
Speaker 1: steps four backwards, to take a couple steps forward, and

361
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 1: then five steps forward. That's the game plan. So I

362
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,199
Speaker 1: think the best case scenario this year is to be really,

363
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 1: really crappy and then attack next offseason. So I would

364
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 1: expect them to be pretty bad. My question is where

365
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: do you think some of these Vet wide receivers such

366
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 1: as Beckham, Julio, Jarvis, Cole Beasley, Will Fuller, Will Land

367
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:45,720
Speaker 1: or where do you think some of them they're best

368
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 1: fits for them? Well, Odell Beckham is a torn a

369
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: c l Julio fell off a cliff. Jarvis still good.

370
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,680
Speaker 1: Imagine he wants some money. Cole Beasley, I think he

371
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,199
Speaker 1: just got released because of the vaccine stuff. But does

372
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: anyone care about COVID anymore? So to me, he still

373
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 1: has value. He's a good slot receiver. Will Fuller gets

374
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 1: hurt a lot, but can really run. I would say, oh,

375
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 1: b J and Julio. I mean, who knows Jarvis like?

376
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 1: I think good teams are gonna be interested in him.

377
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: The Ravens um you would think Green Bay. I know

378
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 1: they have Cobb, but I would imagine Jarvis Land somewhere

379
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,439
Speaker 1: pretty good. Beasley will Fuller. I don't necessarily know, but

380
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,160
Speaker 1: I think I think both those two guys can play.

381
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: I have a question about NFL contracts like Baker Mayfield.

382
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,679
Speaker 1: If the Browns cut cut Baker, how much do they

383
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: still own and if another team signs him, does what

384
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: they pay him effect the Browns still owe him? Could

385
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 1: Baker sign a league minimum deal with a team and

386
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 1: still make eighteen million dollars left on his deal? If

387
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: the Browns cut him, they owe him every penny. Now,

388
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's offset language in the fifth

389
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 1: year option. I don't think there is, so I think

390
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 1: if the Browns were to cut him, they would have

391
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 1: to pay him eighteen million dollars. And then if another

392
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: team paid him, let's just pick a number five million dollars.

393
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure unless there's offset language. If there is

394
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 1: offset language, if another team paid him five, the Browns

395
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: is only only thirteen. If there isn't, Baker would make

396
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: twenty three million dollars, or if he signed a million

397
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 1: dollar deals, he'd make nineteen million dollars. So the Browns

398
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 1: are on the hook no matter what because another team,

399
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,719
Speaker 1: even if there is offset language, you can sign him

400
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 1: for a million dollars and then the Browns was still

401
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: home seventeen. So those fifth year options, this is why

402
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 1: it's a pretty big deal when they get picked up

403
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 1: or denied, because when you pick it up, that number

404
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: is guaranteed. That number is guaranteed. So when you pick

405
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 1: it up and he makes it that fifth year, you

406
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,400
Speaker 1: can't you can't move any of the money, you can't

407
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,479
Speaker 1: take a pay cut. Like the numbers, the number. If

408
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 1: it's fifteen eight team, the number is only gonna rise

409
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 1: on all these players right as the cap goes up.

410
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,919
Speaker 1: So it's it's a big decision when you're picking up

411
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: those fifth year options. It seems the one NFL team

412
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 1: title chances that isn't getting nearly talked up enough is

413
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: the Ravens. They were the one seed post Thanksgiving last

414
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: year and we're vying for the playoffs in Week sixteen

415
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 1: despite losing an NFL high number of guys to seasonating

416
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 1: injuries like Peters, j K Gus Edwards, Jesic Hill, I

417
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 1: know uh. They also lost Ronney Stanley for the year

418
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: during Week one, as well as Morland and Lamar Jackson

419
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 1: midway through the year, though Lamar's first day games, he

420
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: was throwing the ball better than we've ever seen him before,

421
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: including arguably better than he did during his m v

422
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 1: P year. With a fully healthy roster going into two,

423
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 1: a fourth place schedule, and another solid draft class, who's

424
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 1: to say the Ravens should not be the favorite in

425
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 1: the a f C. Well, I mean, to me, they're

426
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 1: definitely a playoff team. I mean, if they stay remotely healthy,

427
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,479
Speaker 1: they're gonna be really really good. I think we all

428
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 1: acknowledge that. I mean, I don't think anyone's disputing that

429
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: the Ravens aren't really really good. I think part of

430
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,360
Speaker 1: the reason they're not getting talked about is Russell Wilson

431
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 1: was traded, Toshaun Watson was traded. Um, you know, crazy

432
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 1: things happened. If they hadn't, I think we talked about

433
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: the Ravens more. Honestly, if I'm the Ravens, I kind

434
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 1: of like flying out of the radar. I don't necessarily

435
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 1: mind that. So yeah, I'm in agreement they should be uh,

436
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 1: you know, eleven twelve win team finally hopping into the

437
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: d MS. Big fan of the pot. It's funny you

438
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,400
Speaker 1: mentioned your buddy's dad in health administration a few months ago,

439
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 1: as I was on my way back from a healthcare

440
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 1: conference and finally got my m h A last Friday,

441
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: your podcast between work and grad school one night kept

442
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 1: me going. You demand don't really have a question, but

443
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: keep kicking ass and taking names. And if you're ever

444
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,199
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville, obviously not for football because I wouldn't put

445
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: you through a Jack's game. Let's go out and play TPC. Huh,

446
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 1: I'd be game. I'm pretty sure TPC sagrass costs like bucks,

447
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: but I would love to play. I have to dial

448
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 1: in my games tight. Course I'm a little late kitchen

449
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: up to the podcast, but I listened to Your Friday

450
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: pod and I can confirm Jordan Davis is an absolute bohemoth,

451
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 1: true miss by the Falcons. I do NFL athlete marketing

452
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: deals for a certain company for work. So I was

453
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,640
Speaker 1: in Vegas and when I met him, my hand literally

454
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:12,200
Speaker 1: just disappeared in his hand when we shook hands. L

455
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:17,119
Speaker 1: O L Yeah, man, that's uh. He's a monster. I

456
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: think the Falcons are really going to regret that pick.

457
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 1: The Packers going into twenty two feels like the very

458
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,679
Speaker 1: reminiscen the Cowboys going into eighteen. After cutting death and

459
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: having Cole Beasley and Tavon Austin as the leading receivers,

460
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: they lost their only legit number one, and drafted Gallop

461
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,920
Speaker 1: in the third Believe Jerry Jones went on record saying

462
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: they were gonna spread it out team and see how

463
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 1: it went. They had to trade Mark Cooper midseason. Packers,

464
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 1: also going with number one wide receiver, drafted Watson to

465
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 1: try to fill the void, but going in with a

466
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 1: couple Number two is at best. Rogers is the world's better.

467
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 1: Rogers is world's better than Dak But I could see

468
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,159
Speaker 1: this ending similarly with Green Bay not being able to

469
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 1: get the ball down the field and Aaron Jones as

470
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 1: the leading wide receiver. Games. What are your thoughts? I

471
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,920
Speaker 1: would say there are some similarities. The Packers run game,

472
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,720
Speaker 1: like the Cowboys run game is gonna be really good, right,

473
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 1: That was peak Zeke. This is peak Aaron Jones and

474
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 1: A J. Dillon. They're running game is gonna be awesome.

475
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 1: Their defense is gonna be really good too. I think

476
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 1: the Packers defense is gonna be really good. I don't

477
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: have the two thousand eighteen Cowboys defense off the top

478
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 1: of my head, but I don't think there was good

479
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 1: on defense as the Packers potentially will be. And like

480
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 1: you said, at the end of the day, Aaron Rodgers

481
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 1: so damn good. It doesn't he should elevate guys. I mean, look,

482
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,920
Speaker 1: he has before. I think they were seven and oh

483
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,120
Speaker 1: or six and one without Davante Adams the last couple

484
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 1: of years, and that's because of Aaron Rodgers. Like he's

485
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 1: he's in a different universe than Dakota Prescott. So I

486
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,359
Speaker 1: think it's hard to compare those two. Now McCarthy was

487
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 1: the I guess Jason Garrett was the coach. McCarthy uh

488
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 1: not even I guess La Flour is the coach. Sorry,

489
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,160
Speaker 1: it's a lot of crossover there. Uh yeah. I think

490
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 1: the Packers win ten eleven games and win the division.

491
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 1: I feel pretty confident there. I appreciate everyone shooting me

492
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: d M S. If I didn't answer your question on

493
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 1: d M S. I'll get to it a little bit later,

494
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 1: maybe on Tuesday's d M S or manually d M

495
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:19,399
Speaker 1: you back. Uh yeah, Hopefully everyone's having a good weekend,

496
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 1: and talk to everyone soon. Peace. Volume
