That helped me out because you 22 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 2: played the game and I didn't. All right, here's the deal. 23 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:08,040 Speaker 2: You know, teams go to preseason workouts. I mean I 24 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 2: have no idea when they NHL even goes to preseason 25 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,199 Speaker 2: camp in September or the NBA. I watch the regular 26 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 2: season preseason. I don't care, but people go they go crazy. 27 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 2: I mean in Cincinnati, and that's where I live, in 28 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,479 Speaker 2: the area of Cincinnati, when the Bengal's going to practice, 29 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 2: the practices are such that they limit them to season 30 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 2: ticket holders, and this coming week for practice, they're gonna 31 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:34,040 Speaker 2: let anybody come watch. It's amazing, it really is. I mean, 32 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 2: people just go this salivating over practices. Over drills don't 33 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,559 Speaker 2: mean nothing. Seven on seven drills without pads, and people 34 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 2: go crazy. And the TV's at eleven o'clock at night. 35 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 2: They got the TV Sports. They're reporting on it. So 36 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 2: he look good, he looked big. They can't even tell. 37 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 2: But every day there's a story on the NFL before 38 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 2: the season starts. It's not like that in baseball with 39 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: spring training. Spring trainings is kind of a kickback they 40 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 2: Asian period and basketball and hockey. No one even cares. Football. 41 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 2: It's got us by the Gonads. That's what it does. 42 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 2: Football's got us. They do well. Hooked. 43 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 4: Yeah we're hooked. We're also hooked just because the thing 44 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 4: about football. Unlike other sports, every game really matters. When 45 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 4: you only play seventeen games. There's a lot of white 46 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 4: weight on every game that's played there over the course 47 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 4: of the weekend. And because we have so few games, 48 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 4: like people, we leave people wanting more. And so the 49 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 4: football public they only get a chance to see their team. 50 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 4: They only guarantee to see their team seventeen times. And 51 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 4: so when you think about over the course of a year, 52 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 4: man seventeen times is not a lot, and you think 53 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 4: about home fans either eight or nine home games, that's 54 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 4: not a lot of opportunities to see your team. That 55 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 4: really increases the need to go see in practice, to 56 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 4: want to pay attention to what's going on, because the 57 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 4: NFL leaves you wanting more. When it comes to the games. 58 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 4: One hundred and sixty two games in baseball, you can 59 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 4: always kind of put off me, like I just go 60 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 4: check them out next week. Basketball has eighty two. Same 61 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 4: attitude can be used. But with football, with only seventeen games, 62 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 4: everything matters, and it kind of rest up the intensity 63 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 4: on everything. 64 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 2: I knew you'd have the answer. I knew you'd have 65 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 2: the answer. I mean, that's why I threw it out there. 66 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 2: I knew you'd have that answer. But you know what's 67 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 2: also very similar, I guess with the Olympics because it's 68 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 2: every four years. And today what I was glued to 69 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 2: the set yesterday I had no idea and I had 70 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 2: to look this up that Fiji was a defending gold 71 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: team and men's rugby and France beat him yesterday. And 72 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 2: I'm watching the game, I'm watching water polo, I'm watching 73 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 2: it all and the swimming between Australia and the US 74 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 2: of A and the four by one hundred, I think 75 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 2: it's wonderful. Now you know they're creating the villain. You know, 76 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 2: the AUS is now the villain against the US of 77 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: A because they showed a clip last night on a 78 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 2: morning show in Australia how they were like dissing the 79 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 2: usfa A swimming team saying they didn't like hearing the 80 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 2: national anthem all the time, and the USA came out 81 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 2: with cow bells and whatever. So this kind of rivalry 82 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 2: and friendly rivalry, but a rivalry no less, and I 83 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 2: think that's what makes sports so great. And I don't 84 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 2: know about you, but I've been watching the Olympics. I 85 00:03:59,200 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: love it. 86 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, it's been great ast fun You brought that 87 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 4: up because I remember Michael Phelps talking about that. Michael 88 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 4: Phelps look the perennial, legendary champion who's in a broadcaster 89 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 4: role now, but he was still fired up about the comments. 90 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 4: And so you knew that was going to be felt 91 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 4: by the Americans. And the Olympics are a great time 92 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 4: of year. You talk about filling patriotic supporting your country. 93 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 4: You're seeing, I would say, terrific athletes doing amazing things. 94 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 4: That's what the Olympics is all about. 95 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 2: Here, exactly right. No, I tell you what's an amazing 96 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 2: thing When I hear about Jordan Love getting a big 97 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 2: time contract and two is getting big time contracts, And 98 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 2: I'm trying to scratch my head and figure this out 99 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 2: because I always thought that contracts should be based on 100 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 2: your body of work. And all of a sudden, now 101 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 2: Jordan Love because a four year, two hundred twenty million 102 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 2: dollar deal, and I know last year he passed over 103 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 2: four thousand yards thirty two tds. I got the Packers 104 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 2: in the playoffs after a two and five start, which 105 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 2: is something I guess that Brett Fahr and Aaron Rodgers 106 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 2: never did make the playoffs in their first year and 107 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 2: he did. And then you once told me this, and 108 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 2: I guess this is the reason why. What's the option 109 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 2: you don't sign Jordan Love that a four year deal? 110 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 2: Who do you have? So basically, again, is that leverage situation. 111 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that he's not a good quarterback, not 112 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 2: a great quarterback and not a franchise quarterback. But he's 113 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 2: good and the Packers need him and to need him 114 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 2: and keep him, got to sign him. And now he's 115 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 2: going to get that second contract because he becomes a 116 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: free agent again at the age of thirty. So he's 117 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 2: gonna have two biggies in his career, which is unbelievable. 118 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,279 Speaker 4: Really, Yeah, he's gonna have two big contracts in his career. 119 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 4: It is unbelievable to think that he's going to get 120 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 4: that kind of money. But I'm gonna be honest with you. 121 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 4: When you're the Packers and you draft someone in the 122 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 4: first round and when he has an opportunity to find 123 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,559 Speaker 4: he played, he plays at the level that he played 124 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 4: at and it's time to get paid. Yeah, you have 125 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 4: to pay him. The alternative wasn't there. Next year's quarterback 126 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 4: class is considered weak by all accounts. When it comes 127 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 4: to the draft, there are not many available options on 128 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 4: the open market. It'll be maybe Yak Prescott and some journeymen. 129 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 4: So if you're the Green Bay Packers, you're looking at 130 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 4: a young guy who has grown up in your system, 131 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 4: who's a great kid, character and all that is terrific. 132 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 4: Those are the ones that you want to pay. Do 133 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 4: you want to reward the good players who are good 134 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 4: people who fit what you're about as an organization. Jordan 135 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 4: Love has done that. 136 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 2: It's amazing. I mean, fifty five million dollars average a year. 137 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 2: And this matches your guy. Trevor Lawrence and Jacksonville and 138 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,359 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow here in Cincinnati. And I look at the 139 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 2: names here and really and truly those three have not 140 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 2: accomplished anything yet they really have Joe Burrow. You know, 141 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 2: in the Cincinnati market, they're ready to build a statue 142 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 2: for the guy and put him in the Hall of Fame. 143 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 2: And I get it. I mean, as he goes, so 144 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 2: goes this team. And he took him to a super Bowl. 145 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 2: But still in all I think this doubt. Last year 146 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 2: he was hurt. He's been hurt several times. He could 147 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 2: be injury prone and I was told now that he's 148 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 2: put on some pounds because some extra weight to make 149 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: him maybe more durable. Well, I'm not so short. That's 150 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 2: a good deal. I think your body frame is a 151 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 2: certain way, the way you play. He may not be 152 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 2: his mobile now. They said he put on about twenty pounds. 153 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 2: Now tell me, I mean you've been around, you know. 154 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 2: Is that a good thing that he put on this 155 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 2: extra weight or maybe it'll change his game? I don't know. 156 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, it looked. It's very similar to what Tua 157 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 4: did a couple of years ago when concussions were thinking 158 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 4: and he took jiu jitsu and added weight to see 159 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 4: if he could kind of curb some of the injuries 160 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 4: that were bothering him. Joe Burrow is trying to do 161 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 4: the same. He's trying to find a remedy that will 162 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 4: keep him on the field, that will prevent him from 163 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 4: having to go to the sideline and leaving his team 164 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 4: with Jake Browning having to play. It's funny that you 165 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 4: bring up, you know, like the guys and a lot 166 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 4: of the conversation about the guys who just have gotten paid, 167 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 4: whether it's Trevor Lawrence to a tongue about Lawa Jordan Love. 168 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 4: A lot of it is like, but they haven't done anything. 169 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 4: They haven't earned it. They haven't they haven't won a 170 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 4: super Bowl, they haven't done any of those other things. Well, 171 00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 4: Josh Allen has never won a Super Bowl. Josh Allen 172 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 4: has not been an MVP. He got his payday a 173 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,559 Speaker 4: couple of years back. It's not about what you earn, 174 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 4: it's the potential. It's what you bring potentially to the 175 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 4: franchise and individually that ultimately results in whether you get 176 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 4: paid or not. Do people look at you and look 177 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 4: at what you've done to this date, and can they 178 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 4: close their eyes an envision you being one that can 179 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 4: lead the team to a Super Bowl? You being one 180 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 4: that can consistently be a top five quarterback in this league. 181 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 4: If you have those things on your side, well then 182 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 4: you're gonna get the checkbook. Because there's so few. They're 183 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 4: not any quarterbacks in this league. You know, we got 184 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 4: thirty two teams and maybe we have twenty solid quarterbacks 185 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 4: in the league, solid or above. The rest of the 186 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 4: league is searching for someone that can be a consistent 187 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 4: presence under center, because when you have one, you have 188 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 4: to pay one and that's why you see these teams 189 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 4: opening up the checkbook to keep the young players that 190 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 4: have played at a pretty good level. 191 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying. And also they're getting the 192 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 2: money because there's no one else. What's the option. There's 193 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 2: no other option. So maybe down the road, these teams 194 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 2: should be saying to themselves, you know, rather than pay 195 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 2: the quarterback that kind of money, let's get a backup 196 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 2: or two that can maybe filling the void. Maybe it's 197 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 2: maybe the backup quarterback becomes a little more important now 198 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 2: in the National Football League. So because money and number two, 199 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 2: these quarterbacks are getting injured too. 200 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, but here's the problem when it comes to the 201 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 4: backup quarterback. Right, So, you think you're getting off cheap, 202 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 4: but the backup is a backup for a reason. Most 203 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 4: of the time, the longer the backup play, the more 204 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 4: his warts begin to show up. Backups are typically good 205 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 4: for a game, maybe two games, But if you get 206 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 4: in a situation where you have to play the backup 207 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 4: more than two games, you're going to see what his 208 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 4: limitations are, either physically or mentally when it comes to 209 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 4: decision making and being able to manage the game effectively 210 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 4: to get your team to the winner circle. That's why 211 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,040 Speaker 4: backups are that. Now, that's really important that you we 212 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 4: have to have a backup because it's harder for starters 213 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 4: to play a full seventeen games slate. But to think 214 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 4: that you can kind of pinch pennies at the quarterback 215 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 4: position and that gonna happen. You had to pay money 216 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 4: for the quarterback. It's the most important position in football, 217 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:15,959 Speaker 4: and you got to pay him courtingly. 218 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 5: Well. 219 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 2: I will say this, when Joe Burrow went down last year, 220 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 2: I was already impressed with Jake Browning. They won with 221 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,839 Speaker 2: Jake Browning. And if you remember the division of the 222 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 2: Bengals are in. It was the first time and I 223 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 2: didn't know this, but the Bengals had their media luncheon 224 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 2: on Monday, and I went Mike Brown of all people, 225 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,679 Speaker 2: eighty plus years old, he rattled this off right on 226 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 2: the top of his head. Is the first time since 227 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 2: nineteen thirty six that a division at every team of 228 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 2: five hundred or better, and last year was Baltimore over 229 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 2: five hundred. They were all wore you know, Baltimore, Cleveland, 230 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 2: Cincinnati and since I finished last, but they didn't make 231 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 2: the playoffs, but they all finished five hundred or better. 232 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 2: And the other division back in the day was Detroit 233 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 2: Green Bay and both Chicago teams, the Chicago Bears and 234 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 2: then Chicago Cardinals, they all finished over five hundred. 235 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, look, I'm I'm not surprising. It's a 236 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 4: really competitive division, a really good division, one where you 237 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 4: need quarterback play to be at the top level, but 238 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 4: you also have to be very, very talented. And when 239 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 4: you look at Cincinnati and the Versito teams, they all 240 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 4: have a quarterback and that's where it starts, and you 241 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:18,719 Speaker 4: have to have that to compete. And really, when you 242 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 4: look at the AFC, the AFC is loaded with quarterbacks 243 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 4: and you're trying to make sure that you have enough 244 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 4: to compete. Yeah, the money's flying off the boards. It's 245 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 4: flying off the charge. You can already see how much 246 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 4: Dak Prescott is going to get. He's gonna be over 247 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 4: the sixty million dollar mark. That means that Pat Mahomes 248 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,599 Speaker 4: is shortly going to be there after and everyone that 249 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,199 Speaker 4: comes through. It's only going to go up. It it'll 250 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 4: never come back down. 251 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,959 Speaker 2: It's amazing. And two was signed for one hundred and 252 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: sixty seven million guaranteed out of a two hundred and 253 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 2: twelve million dollar contracts. He's like the eighth most expensive 254 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 2: quarterback in the National Football League, But he is a deal. 255 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 2: The bottom line with all of this, Now, who's licking 256 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 2: their chops right now? Dak Prescott he hasn't signed yet. 257 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 2: And I'm going to ask you what's wrong with Jerry Joe? 258 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 2: Why aren't they so Dak prescottas again? What's the option 259 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,959 Speaker 2: in Dallas? I don't know what's going on in Dallas 260 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 2: because you got Cde Lamb, Michael Parsons, and Dak Prescott 261 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 2: all wanted to be paid and he's not doing that. 262 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 2: And now the more people get paid and on other teams, 263 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 2: their price goes even up higher. Right, is that the 264 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:20,439 Speaker 2: way it works? 265 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 4: Yeah? N This is really interesting because with Dak, with 266 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 4: Dak Prescott, you would think that they would already have 267 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 4: gotten this done, right, that they would have already taken 268 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 4: care of this deal. They would have found a way 269 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 4: to give him his money so you could set the 270 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 4: franchise up, you know, the rest of for the rest 271 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:39,839 Speaker 4: of the guys. Hey, how are we going to take 272 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 4: care of these guys? How we gonna you know, how 273 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 4: we're gonna build our team that we got the big 274 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 4: money quarterback, but the Cowboys have been dragging their feet 275 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 4: not only on the quarterback but ceedee lamb Michael Parsons. 276 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 4: And I'm surprised because normally you want to get the 277 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 4: biggest piece done first so you know how to allocate 278 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 4: the rest of the money. 279 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 2: Uh. 280 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 4: This to me suggests to the Cowboys are trying to 281 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 4: play it on a wait and see basis, trying to 282 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 4: make it a make or break campaign for Dak Prescott. 283 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 4: But they also have to be willing to roll the 284 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 4: dice and know, hey, Trey Lance can fill in and 285 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 4: do a solid job over Dak Prescott, because that's the 286 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 4: only way you can do that. Because if you're going 287 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 4: to play this game where he actually gets to the 288 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 4: open market, he's not coming back. It's become too personal 289 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 4: for him. He's had thinking about how he's had to 290 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 4: beg and plead for every contract that he's gotten. This 291 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 4: is it. This is the last year Dak Prescott in Dallas, 292 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 4: and they are seemingly moving on, getting ready for life 293 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 4: without him, But they haven't paid the money to the 294 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 4: people that allow them to be able to transition effectively 295 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 4: without Dak Prescott. 296 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 2: At quarter it's kind of crazy. And you know what, 297 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,839 Speaker 2: as good as as Dak Prescott, as he's thirty years 298 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 2: of age, he is going through the final year of 299 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 2: his contract, he's going to play, but for fifty five 300 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 2: million under the salary cap there in Dallas. I have 301 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 2: to say, if someone would to ask me, the MVP 302 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 2: of that Dallas team has to be Michael Parsons. Three 303 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 2: old Pro selections in three years. I mean, this guy 304 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 2: as he goes to some extent, So go to Dallas Cowboys. 305 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,679 Speaker 2: You got to get him. Dak Prescott signed c d 306 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,839 Speaker 2: lamb okay, but Michael Parsons, he's the guy. Got to 307 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 2: get him, really. 308 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 4: You do, but you have time to wait. Time is 309 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 4: on your side when it comes to Michael Parsons. Like all, 310 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 4: everybody wants to get paid right now, but everyone has 311 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 4: to understand the pack in order. He's not up yet. 312 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 4: He still has a couple of years that if you 313 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,839 Speaker 4: got the option that you can use on him. So 314 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 4: you got to take care of the quarterback, then the 315 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 4: pass catcher, then the pass rusher after that. But you 316 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 4: can't jump over it. If you do that, then you 317 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 4: don't have no chance of being able to get the quarterback. 318 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 2: And I got to ask you this, I don't know 319 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 2: why Dak Prescott does not get the respect he deserves. 320 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 2: I've seen these top ten quarterback lists and I haven't 321 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 2: seen his name in many of those lists. I believe 322 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 2: he's a top ten quarterback in the National Football League, 323 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 2: and I don't understand why he gets no respect. Why 324 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 2: is that he started all games last year, he was durable. 325 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 2: I don't get it. 326 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I don't know. See, he's only had one 327 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 4: bad season and that was two years ago, and that 328 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 4: was with the thumb. He broke his thumb and he 329 00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 4: had a number of interceptions. Everyone took him the task 330 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 4: for that. He has since curved it. Cut those down 331 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 4: numbers have gone way up. He's been a really good 332 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 4: fit Mike McCarthy's offense. You can see a lot of things. 333 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 4: But last year he played in a level that was high, 334 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 4: high level, up in the top five level, and he's 335 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 4: under that for a few years.

All right, let's get into this 400 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 2: right now. College football, college football rivalries. I don't know 401 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 2: where they are, bucket, I'm sure, North Carolina had rivalries 402 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 2: Adense State Army, Navy, Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, West Virginia. 403 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 2: They're gone right now, and they had the Big Ten 404 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 2: media days earlier this week, and USC and Ojendame they 405 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 2: played for the very first time ever in nineteen twenty six. 406 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,439 Speaker 2: The date was December fourth, The Fighting Irish beat USC 407 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 2: thirteen to twelve in the La Memorial Coliseum and now 408 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 2: ninety four games later on November the thirtieth of this year, 409 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 2: USC's regular finale of this coming season. They'll have two 410 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 2: more future matchups schedule against no Ja Dame October eighteenth, 411 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five, and again November twenty eighth, twenty twenty six. However, however, 412 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 2: now with the current state of college football and now 413 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 2: USC is into Big Ten, that yearly game may go 414 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 2: by the boards, especially if it means a chance at 415 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 2: a national championship. How do I know that? Take a 416 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 2: listen to Lincoln Riley, the coach of USC. That is 417 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:15,159 Speaker 2: what you have to say about it. 418 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 7: Go ahead, Lincoln, I would love to I would love 419 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 7: to know. I know it means you know a lot 420 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,159 Speaker 7: to a lot of people, and so the again, the 421 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 7: purest in you no doubt. Now, if you get in 422 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 7: a position where you've got to make a decision on 423 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 7: what's best for SC to help us win a national 424 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:37,239 Speaker 7: championship versus keeping that shoot, then you got to look 425 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 7: at it. I mean, and listen, we're not the first 426 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 7: example of that. Look all the way across the country, 427 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 7: there's been a lot of other teams sacrifice rivalry games. 428 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 7: I'm not saying that's what's going to happen, but you know, 429 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,199 Speaker 7: as we get into this playoff structure and if it 430 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 7: changes not we in this new conference, like, we're going 431 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 7: to learn some about this as we go and what 432 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 7: the right and the best track is, you know, to 433 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 7: winning in that championship. 434 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,640 Speaker 2: Bucky, did you hear that? The fact that he said 435 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 2: that we're not going to do it, the fact that 436 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 2: he mentioned it, that means he's going to do it. 437 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 2: He's going to do it. I mean, how do you 438 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 2: dump that? How do you dump that? Rivalry? USC has 439 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 2: to play Notre Dame and I don't know why Notre 440 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 2: Dame has not come forward and said something about that, 441 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 2: But what's your take on that? Because I think it stinks. 442 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 4: Well, look it may stink, but we got an expanded playoff. 443 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,199 Speaker 4: And so when you have an expanded playoff, you have 444 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 4: to sacrifice some things. If you're a USC, your job 445 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 4: is to put yourself in a position and get to 446 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 4: the playoffs. As much as everyone may love their rivalry 447 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 4: game Notre Dame, in USC, people aren't keeping their jobs 448 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 4: because they either win or lose in their rivalry game. 449 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 4: They're not hanging bandage because you beat Notre Dame three 450 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 4: or four times in a row. What they will do 451 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 4: is they'll pay attention to playoff appearances, national title games. 452 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 4: And Lincoln Riley is fully aware of that, and that's 453 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 4: why he's kind of heads in his bed when it 454 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 4: comes to extending the rivalry. Because the most important thing 455 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 4: for any college football program right now, how can I 456 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 4: get into the playoff? Because when I get into the playoff, 457 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 4: it changes the way that our program is perceived. It 458 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 4: also changes how fans feel about our program in terms 459 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,400 Speaker 4: of being legitimate. You know, are we legitimate title contenders? 460 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 4: Everyone wants to be in that conversation. 461 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 2: All right, But let me run this by. They were 462 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 2: expanding the college playoffs as yet at twelve teams. There's 463 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:20,440 Speaker 2: a possibility, I would think that you could lose two 464 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 2: or maybe even three games and still get in to 465 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 2: be in the top twelve. So why were you dumb? 466 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 2: Note your name? You could lose three games and be 467 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 2: in the top twelve. I think it's wartered down anyway. 468 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 2: I don't think there are twelve teams that will ever 469 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 2: be deserving of going to the playoffs. But that's what 470 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 2: they're doing anyway. So they're expanding to twelve. And I 471 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,159 Speaker 2: think what Lincoln Roley is, here's a guy, and you 472 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 2: know this bug, here's a guy after losses last year 473 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 2: at USC wouldn't talk to the media, and now he's 474 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 2: spouting the fact that he's going to dump a tremendous 475 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 2: a tremendous rivalry that the fans pay for. Were they 476 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 2: gonna replace that with Vanderbilt? I mean, come on, an 477 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 2: easy win, give me a break. 478 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 4: You're gonna be able to do that. But you remember, 479 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,360 Speaker 4: the conference is harder, has the prospect of playing difficult 480 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 4: teams Ohio State, Penn State, Michigan. You think about Wisconsin 481 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 4: always being in the conversation as one Iowa. I mean, 482 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,120 Speaker 4: there are a lot of tough games in that schedule, 483 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 4: and so if my regular season features a bunch of 484 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 4: conference games against tough teams. Why am I going to 485 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 4: add to the mix another difficult team. It just doesn't 486 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 4: make sense because the end goal is to get into 487 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 4: the tournament. And so whether we like it or not, 488 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 4: I understand why he may not want to play Notre 489 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 4: Dame because his conference schedule is a heavyweight. It's going 490 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,360 Speaker 4: to be a monster. It's gonna be a monster each 491 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 4: and every year. 492 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 2: I hope he loses. I mean, I really do. I 493 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 2: hope he will lose. He will lose, and look, what 494 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 2: he's doing right now is not good for college football. 495 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,919 Speaker 2: I think what college football has done right now is 496 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 2: that they've stuck their handout and say how much money 497 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 2: are you going to give me? How much money can 498 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 2: I get? I'm seeing teams from the ACC, from the 499 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 2: West Coast playing on the Atlanta Coast Conference. I think 500 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,639 Speaker 2: it's crazy. I think the whole jurymandering move here, what 501 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 2: they've done with college football is ridiculous. It's killing it. 502 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 2: I think that people right now have no idea what 503 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 2: teams are in what conference. The fact that USC is 504 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 2: in the Big ten US he's traveling to Maryland to 505 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 2: play football games. It doesn't make any sense and what 506 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 2: are they going to do with the women's sports, you know, 507 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 2: golf and women's soccer. They're gonna travel to Maryland? I mean, 508 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 2: come on, I mean it doesn't make sense to me. 509 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 2: And the rivalry fact that there has always been a big, 510 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 2: a big play in college football rivalries. It's great, that's 511 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 2: what they do. 512 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it's great. But you know what else 513 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 4: is great? 514 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:38,880 Speaker 2: Winning champneyship. Money's great. 515 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 4: So so would you rather have a championship? Would you 516 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 4: rather have a meaningless win over Notre Dame? If you're 517 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 4: a usc you want a championship, and that's what it's 518 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 4: going to be. But we as fans, we can't have 519 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 4: it all right. We can't say, oh, we want to 520 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 4: we want to playoff. We want you to play tough 521 00:23:55,520 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 4: teams in the regular season, no cupcakes, no lower level teams, 522 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 4: and every game is a heavyweight. That just doesn't work, man. 523 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 4: You just can't do that. You can't sustain your program 524 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 4: if you're taking on heavyweights each and every week. Just 525 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 4: doesn't work like that. 526 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 2: Well, look, I mean, Dave already us he's already dumped 527 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 2: Old Miss. They were supposed to play Old Miss this 528 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,439 Speaker 2: season and in twenty twenty six, that game was canceled. 529 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 2: Who was canceling in June? But Riley came out and 530 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,200 Speaker 2: said the cancelation had been in the works. I don't 531 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,719 Speaker 2: believe it. You know what, Lincoln Riley, You're full of it. 532 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 2: You're full of it. I don't believe you, and I 533 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 2: hope you lose every game of USC. 534 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 4: I hate Okay, So wait a minute, Wait a minute. 535 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 4: So are you just as mad as at Alabama and 536 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 4: some of those schools that schedule Western Carolina and the 537 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 4: Citadel and those things as they're trying to reset. You 538 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 4: want them to take on another heavyweight instead of kind 539 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 4: of taking a break like they do in the middle 540 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 4: of it. 541 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 2: They I like that because they're giving those smaller schools 542 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,640 Speaker 2: their paycheck for the athletic department for the whole year 543 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 2: to give that guarantee money. All right, Look, I'm upset 544 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 2: that Oklahoma's not playing Oklahoma State anymore. That was a 545 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 2: big rivalry when I lived in Oklahoma. I mean, rivalries 546 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 2: are great. People love that. The fans love it, all right. 547 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 2: At Alabama, You're right, but I think they used to 548 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 2: that playing that the Western Alabama's and all that stuff. 549 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 2: I think they used to that stuff. 550 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 4: I mean they're used to it because they've done it 551 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 4: for so long. Like tradition starts with one. So if 552 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,959 Speaker 4: you have to start doing some of those things, if 553 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 4: you're a s C, but you cannot continue to take 554 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 4: on all of those robbery games. The thing that you 555 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 4: can sustain yourself and it's gonna be hard. What's gonna 556 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 4: be interested is looking at what Notre Dame does Notre 557 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,879 Speaker 4: Dame may play part of an ACC schedule, but they 558 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 4: got to play some heavyweights too to remain relevant. We 559 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,360 Speaker 4: saw Army, one of the only independent teams in college football, 560 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 4: join the conference just because they wanted a pathway to 561 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 4: the playoff. The playoff, Trump's everything. Everything that you do, 562 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 4: every decision that you make, scheduling is about putting yourself 563 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 4: in a position to get into the playoffs. 564 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 2: Well, you're right about that. We'll see what happens this 565 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,880 Speaker 2: year in college football. Playoffs are great, But I don't 566 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,120 Speaker 2: think there's twelve teams that may be worthy for the players. 567 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 2: But you know, time will tell, Bucky Brooks, but you 568 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 2: think the teams out there, I mean I liked that 569 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 2: when there were four teams in that fifth team was 570 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,199 Speaker 2: like rubbing their nose against the glass trying to get in. 571 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,400 Speaker 2: I mean, and there was some sort of an argument 572 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 2: about the fact, I mean twelve team. Do you really 573 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 2: think there are twelve deserving teams they're going to put 574 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 2: the automatic conference winners in? I get that, okay, But 575 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 2: other than that, do you think there were twelve deserving 576 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 2: teams that will be available for the playoffs? 577 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,880 Speaker 4: In your local area? Your high school bracket breaks down 578 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 4: with sixteen teams. That's what we've grown up with. Knowing 579 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 4: the NFL has fourteen teams in the playoffs. Do we 580 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 4: think that all fourteen of those teams have a legitimate 581 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,439 Speaker 4: shot of winning the Super Bowl? No, but we tune 582 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 4: in because you just never know. The Green Bay Packers 583 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 4: knocked off the Dallas Cowboys, we didn't see that. Twelve teams. 584 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 4: To me, it's enough to get all the automatic qualifiers, 585 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 4: all the teams that used to be on the line, 586 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 4: and then some of the small schools, a small school 587 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 4: team or out a group of five teams will kind 588 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 4: of pop in there and maybe have an opportunity to 589 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 4: play against some of the monsters that we see in 590 00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 4: college football. To me, twelve teams is the right number. 591 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 4: Only an expanded of fourteen twelveteens is just the right number. 592 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 2: And you know I'm gonna watch it anyway. Okay, it'd 593 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 2: be a good fun out to talk about, to see 594 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 2: what's going on if the team in fact was deserving 595 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 2: to get in. But as I say, time will tell 596 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks, Andy Fervwick call this Fox Sports Sunday on 597 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 2: Fox Sports right now.

That is next. But first, so real greatness, 600 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 2: Kevin Wyatt with your sports. 601 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 8: Yeah, we're seeing plenty of greatness now across the pond 602 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 8: over in Paris. The games of the thirty third Olympiad 603 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 8: in full swing, and the big rivalry of these games 604 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 8: in the swimming pool, the United States and Australia really 605 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 8: going neck and neck, and it's the Americans getting the 606 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 8: gold medal in the four by one hundred freestyle relay. 607 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 8: Caleb Dressel anchoring that team to help the United States 608 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 8: edge out Australia for the gold medal. And for Dressel 609 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 8: it is his eighth career gold medal and his first 610 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:02,199 Speaker 8: one of these twenty four Olympics. But For the women's 611 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,679 Speaker 8: side of things, Ari r and Tipmis wins the four 612 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 8: hundred meter freestyle as she edges out Katie Ledecci for 613 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 8: the win. Katie Layecky does make the podium, winning a 614 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 8: bron says she adds to her illustrious career. Basketball. Canada 615 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 8: over Grease eighty six to seventy nine, as Giannis attended 616 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 8: to Coompo had thirty four points. The United States will 617 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 8: be playing this morning eleven to fifteen am Eastern time. 618 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 8: They'll be taking on Serbia. Now, this is an interesting 619 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 8: development in soccer. The Canada women's national soccer team, the 620 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 8: head coach Bev Priestman suspended for a year because they 621 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 8: used drone to spy on opponents practices, including twice in 622 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 8: the past week in France ahead of the Olympics. And 623 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 8: ESPN will report last night saying that the US Soccer 624 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 8: Federation is aware of a long pattern of similar circumstances 625 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 8: involving Canadian teams that tempting to view other team's close practices, 626 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 8: and that some of them even involved American teams. So 627 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 8: plenty more shoes to drop, I think in this story, 628 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 8: and we'll see exactly what happens. What consequences there might 629 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:19,479 Speaker 8: be for Canada for doing this? So very interesting story. Indeed, 630 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,479 Speaker 8: in Major League Baseball trade a deadline is coming up, 631 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 8: the Yankees getting Jazz Chisholm Junior from the Marlins in 632 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 8: exchange for three minor league prospects, and ESPN saying the 633 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 8: Nets finalizing a trade to acquire outfielder Jesse Winker from 634 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 8: the Washington Nationals. That's for the action on the diamond. 635 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 8: Yankees beat the Boston Red Sox in ten innings, eleven 636 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 8: to eight as Aaron Judge cranks his thirty seventh home run. 637 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 8: The Houston Astros erase a five nothing deficit to beat 638 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 8: the Dodgers seven to six. Alex Bregman with a ninth 639 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 8: inning home run, show hey O Taani hits his thirty 640 00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,560 Speaker 8: second home run of the season.

Blake Snell didn't get 643 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 8: the win, got a no decision, but he's certainly pitched 644 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 8: well enough to deserve it fifteen strikeouts and just six 645 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 8: innings of work. 646 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 2: Padre is on a roll. 647 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 8: They man it's seven straight wins with a nine to 648 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 8: four victory against the Orioles and the Braves ending a 649 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 8: six game losing streak as they shut out the Mets 650 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 8: four to nothing. 651 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 2: Bet you guys, all right, Kat, thanks so much. And 652 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 2: another tradition, is it leaving us? Well, we'll get to 653 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 2: that in just about a minute. He's Bucky Brooks. I 654 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 2: mean they Furman. We are Fox Sports Sunday, Fox Sports Radio, 655 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 2: of course, and asked Bucking in about seven eight minutes 656 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 2: for now. And let's talk baseball, all right, let's talk 657 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 2: baseball for a second. And uh, baseball different from the 658 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 2: other sports, and in fact, it was once the national pastime. 659 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 2: Can we agreen out book? That is no longer the 660 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 2: national pastime? I think it's passed us by to some extent, 661 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 2: no longer we can we agree with that, okay. But 662 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 2: one of the reasons why baseball at one point in 663 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 2: time was so beautiful, and to some it's still is 664 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 2: He's played in the summer, played at night, weather's warm. 665 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 2: But it's the only sport that's timeless, well, the only 666 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 2: sport without a clock, and baseball has the arguments. Umpires 667 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 2: and managers like Earl Weaver, Loopanela and Jeff Frank Corr, 668 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 2: the former Atlanta Brave now with TV analysts for that team. 669 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 2: He agrees, And let's take a little peak and list 670 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 2: of what Jeff Frank Corer had to say about umpires 671 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 2: in Major League Baseball. 672 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 3: The full on Robot Stretcher. Are you in favor or not? 673 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 9: I am not for the sole fact that I think 674 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 9: what makes baseball great is the arguments. I played for 675 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 9: Bobby Cox right there was nothing better than watching him 676 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 9: go out there screen the fans go crazy. 677 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 4: You know you're getting tossed. 678 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 9: I mean, I tell people Bobby Cox got thrown out 679 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 9: of one hundred and sixty two games. That is a 680 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 9: full season of games every night. He's going to take 681 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 9: away from that, you know, because it's going to be 682 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 9: tough to argue that because they can switch it or 683 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 9: do whatever. 684 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 3: But I think it's coming. 685 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 9: Look between gambling and everything else that's going on in 686 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 9: baseball because of that, But I will miss the interaction 687 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 9: and the umpires. 688 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with Jeff Francorp because I guess a roebut umpires. 689 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 2: I think they do have them in some lower divisions 690 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 2: of the minor leagues right now, and again it's a 691 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:17,520 Speaker 2: course saving measure. I'm sure of that, But I like 692 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 2: the arguments. I like when the Earl Weaver would take 693 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 2: his had put it on backwards and Loup Panela would 694 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 2: kick dirt on home play to take up a base 695 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 2: and throw it to the outfield. So I think that's 696 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 2: the entertainment value of baseball and to have a robut 697 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 2: calling the balls and strikes, I'm against it, I really, 698 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 2: And I'll tell you why. While we're doing this, let's 699 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 2: get rid of replace, because you know you can have 700 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 2: the human error. There's no problem with having a guy 701 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 2: making a mistake. But I'll tell you right now, I 702 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 2: watch the NBA and in the fourth quarter with this 703 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 2: five minutes to go, the five minutes takes thirty five 704 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 2: minutes with replays and timeouts. I can live without that. 705 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 2: Let's live with out the replace too. What do you think. 706 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 4: Look, as much as I would like for it to 707 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 4: just be all humans in those things, I think you 708 00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 4: want to put some in hand to make sure that 709 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 4: you can help humans avoid like the human error in 710 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,959 Speaker 4: a critical situation. So I like replay. I think there 711 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 4: should be like a handful of challenges that you're able 712 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 4: to play it. But what I don't want is a 713 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 4: disruptive flow to the game. We finally shorten the game down. 714 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 4: We got to pitch clock and all those other things. 715 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 4: Everything is trending in the right direction. I just don't 716 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 4: want to boge it down. So I'm okay with like 717 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 4: appeals and those things. I don't want a robot, but 718 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 4: I kind of want that mix. I want that mix 719 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 4: of human and artificial intelligence being able to help us 720 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 4: make some of these decisions. 721 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 2: Okay, But they talk about momentum, you know, teams on 722 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 2: a momentum. Say they have a run in basketball, and 723 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, there's a replay, official skills of 724 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 2: time out and whatever. Maybe the momentum factor is lost. 725 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 2: I think it's a big part of basketball. I really do. 726 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 2: The momentum when you're on that run. 727 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, matter of factor, it is lost. And 728 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 4: you're right, it is a big factor in those things 729 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 4: you talking about being on the run and making things 730 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 4: happen and kind of feeling the energy in the stadium 731 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 4: and all that. Yeah, all of that is a part 732 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 4: of it. And when you remove the human element, yeah, 733 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 4: it becomes kind of like a board game. And I 734 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 4: think we like seeing our games that have a lot 735 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 4: of pass and a lot of intensity in those things. 736 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 4: I think you take away from that when you begin 737 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,240 Speaker 4: to put computers in those things, in prominent roles. 738 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,359 Speaker 2: And the umpires, some of these umpires of characters too. 739 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,240 Speaker 2: I remember, way back in the day, I think Emmet Ashford. 740 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know if you'd go back that far, 741 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 2: but Emmett Ashford in the American League. I mean he 742 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 2: was a character. Eric Greg. You know, when I was 743 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,479 Speaker 2: doing local radio in Cincinnati, I'd have Eric Greg on 744 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 2: the radio after the ball I used to do a 745 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 2: postgame show with the Cincinnati Reds and Eric Greg would 746 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,040 Speaker 2: would come up and undo the show with me. He 747 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,360 Speaker 2: was great. May he rest in peace, Eric Greg in 748 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 2: his passed. But Eric Greg waited about three fifty coming 749 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 2: to the studio after the ball game. You know what 750 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,359 Speaker 2: about seven sandwiches and the three quarts of I don't 751 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 2: want to say what it was, but he drank it. 752 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:53,959 Speaker 2: But Eric Greg was great. He must have waited about 753 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 2: three fifty. I don't know how he passed the physical 754 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 2: to become an umpire, really, but I loved Eric Greg. 755 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,280 Speaker 2: I really did. You're not gonna have these guys anymore. 756 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,239 Speaker 2: I think you need characters. That's what makes baseball really does. 757 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, it is. I mean, it's a part of it. Now. 758 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 4: The one thing that will cautioning is though no one 759 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 4: came to see you, no one came to see the umpires. 760 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 4: So let's make sure you can be a part of 761 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 4: the show, but you're not the main show. And understand 762 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:18,400 Speaker 4: what your role is in that. 763 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 2: Good point, you know what that that's why you're the best, 764 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 2: really because I go off on a tangent and you 765 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 2: kind of reel me in. It's like a rodeo. You 766 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 2: reel me in and you make you make me see 767 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 2: the common sense of it. Okay, I just spew out stuff. 768 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,239 Speaker 2: I'm a little I'm a little wild, I admit at 769 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 2: the times. You know, that's why I need you. You 770 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 2: kind of rope me back in like a calf, Like 771 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 2: a calf.

This says 779 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 3: Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Bus Radio. 780 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 2: Bucky is Bucky Brooks and Andy Furman, and we are 781 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,320 Speaker 2: live from the ti raq dot Com studios. 782 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 4: Are you ready? 783 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:16,320 Speaker 2: Are you ready? I know you're ready. Here we go. Okay, 784 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,400 Speaker 2: let's do it. The NFL, and at least in the 785 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 2: state of Ohio, they're looking to mandate all stadia with 786 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 2: grass playing surfaces. How important is it to be playing 787 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 2: on grass rather than smoking? 788 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 4: I guess well, I mean it's only important in terms of, 789 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:36,840 Speaker 4: like it's a software surface than any of the field turfs. 790 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 4: And so there's something about like being able to play 791 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,359 Speaker 4: on plush grass is there's some give to it that 792 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 4: exists where others don't. The problem is this super expensive, 793 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 4: and so ownership has to spend a lot of money 794 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 4: and a lot of time making sure they've maintained those fields, 795 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,360 Speaker 4: particularly in those cold climates where where there's a big factor. 796 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:57,280 Speaker 2: You know, let's get into that for a second. Because 797 00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 2: there's so much money spent and there's so much worries 798 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,399 Speaker 2: about injuries and things like that. I don't think there's 799 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 2: any study really that has been done that says grass 800 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,719 Speaker 2: prevents injuries? Does it? I don't know, but I would 801 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,320 Speaker 2: think that it'd be better studies. 802 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, you have some studies. 803 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would think grass would be a little safe, 804 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:19,280 Speaker 2: a wee bit safe at least easier on the knees 805 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,320 Speaker 2: because when you're playing on that turf, it's like playing 806 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,799 Speaker 2: on concrete, isn't it, especially in the cold. 807 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, And so that's the thing, but it's hard to maintain. 808 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 4: And also from an esthetic look on TV when it 809 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 4: gets to the fall and gets to the winner, grass 810 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 4: turns brown. Doesn't look good on your TV like astro turf. 811 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:38,240 Speaker 2: Does they spray? 812 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:39,760 Speaker 4: It has something doing it? 813 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 2: They spray? I think they do, all right. Speak of importance, 814 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,319 Speaker 2: this inside the NBA. How important is the Inside the 815 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 2: NBA show for the NBA because it's going to be 816 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 2: gone after next season and where's Barkley and Charles Barkley 817 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 2: will be somewhere, I'm sure. 818 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. So No, it'd be interesting to see how that 819 00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 4: plays out because they've been discussing about inside the NBA 820 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,760 Speaker 4: maybe going over to ESPN. Barkley can be a free agent. 821 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 4: All of those things like it's sad that Turner no 822 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 4: longer would be involved in the NBA. But things go on. 823 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 4: I mean we've seen it in football. We saw for 824 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 4: a long time NBC was one of the football channels, 825 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 4: then it went away CBS. I mean that's part of 826 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:20,920 Speaker 4: the deal. You have to pony up to continue to 827 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 4: be a part of the league. And Turner was reluctant 828 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 4: or slow the pony up, which is why they're on 829 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:26,719 Speaker 4: the outside looking in now. 830 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,439 Speaker 2: And how small was Charles want to say he could 831 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,439 Speaker 2: have a no trade clutch over being that we could 832 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 2: be a free agent. That's pretty wise on his part. 833 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 4: Yes, I mean pretty wise, like he negotiated a really 834 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:39,720 Speaker 4: good deal for himself. 835 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 2: He should did. All right, the eighteen game NFL schedule, 836 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 2: that's on the horizon, going to be eighteen games, I'm sure. 837 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 2: But the Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow says, that's okay, but 838 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:49,799 Speaker 2: I want to get two bye weeks, and he said 839 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:51,799 Speaker 2: that there's been a lot of pushback. Why would there 840 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 2: be a lot of pushback. I think it's a good 841 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 2: idea to have two bye weeks if you play an 842 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 2: eighteen game schedule. 843 00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, like you want two by weeks. You have 844 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 4: to break. There's no way you can go eighteen games 845 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 4: but only one by week you need to you can 846 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 4: eliminate one of the preseason games. It slots in nicely. 847 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 4: You just have to figure out when and where do 848 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:11,880 Speaker 4: you want to put those buys in or is it 849 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,719 Speaker 4: a league wide mandated buy or do you kind of 850 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 4: stagger it so you never kind of lead the field 851 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 4: to play. It'd be interesting to see because the CFLs 852 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 4: done with two, has done it with two by weeks 853 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 4: forever and it hasn't impacted their league at all. There's 854 00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 4: a way to do it. You just got to be 855 00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 4: smart in how you do it. 856 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 2: Okay, explain this to me because I'm hearing the term 857 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 2: right now. Not only does players have a holdout, but 858 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 2: now there's a hold in in the NFL. What is 859 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 2: the difference? Please explain that to me. 860 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, hold out, hold in. So what happened The public 861 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 4: wasn't paying attention, but when they redid this CBA to 862 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,439 Speaker 4: collect a bargaining agreement, they put poison pills in which 863 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 4: really restricted players from being able to hold out. The 864 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,879 Speaker 4: fines a punitive maybe forty fifty thousand dollars a day, 865 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:57,920 Speaker 4: for being away and teams can't wave those fees to combat. 866 00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 4: To that, players started doing wing not agreements with teams, 867 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:02,919 Speaker 4: saying I'm gonna come in, but I'm not gonna work, 868 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:05,760 Speaker 4: so that way they avoid the fines. You're around the building, 869 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 4: but you're not getting any work from them. I understand it. 870 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,880 Speaker 4: From a player's standpoint, you don't want to give away money. 871 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,279 Speaker 4: But from a team standpoint, you should hold firm on 872 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 4: some of these things because all the leverages in the 873 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 4: team's favor. 874 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:19,400 Speaker 2: All right, Now, I get it because I see Jamar 875 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 2: Chase at Bengals practice. He's wearing his uniform but he's 876 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 2: not playing, so I guess he's a hold in. 877 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:26,839 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's hold in. That's kind of weird though. 878 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:30,439 Speaker 2: All Right, two young quarterbacks CJ. Stroud and Jordan Love, 879 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:33,920 Speaker 2: they made big statements last year. Now can these two 880 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:36,760 Speaker 2: take another step forward this season? Or will the NFL 881 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 2: know what these guys have and they'll kind of make 882 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:43,240 Speaker 2: them really work this year and they'll have to sophomore 883 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 2: slump perhaps. 884 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:46,439 Speaker 4: Oh, I mean, they're gonna make them work this year 885 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 4: because the one thing about the league is once they 886 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,360 Speaker 4: figure out who you are, they're gonna change and adapt 887 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:53,839 Speaker 4: and adjust, and then it's on you to continue to 888 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 4: evolve your game to make sure you want step ahead 889 00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 4: of the posse. So for Jordan Love CJ. Stroud, everyone 890 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:01,320 Speaker 4: is dug to the tabe. Look at how they performed 891 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:03,200 Speaker 4: last year. They're going to have some answers for how 892 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:05,839 Speaker 4: they performed last year. The trick will be what are 893 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,320 Speaker 4: they done to put themselves in position to counter to 894 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:11,440 Speaker 4: counters that they may have inevitably going to see? 895 00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 2: Okay, last one, quickie? Now a team that could go 896 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 2: from last to first this year in the NFL? Is 897 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:17,400 Speaker 2: there such a team? 898 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:19,000 Speaker 4: Ooh, Chargers? 899 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:19,919 Speaker 2: There you go? 900 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:20,879 Speaker 4: Okay, last one first? 901 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,360 Speaker 2: There we go. Now will one NFL team see a 902 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 2: return of their investment? That and more?

And a little complication this week with 921 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,120 Speaker 2: color coding. You got to help me out, all right. 922 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 2: You had the teams that you think are the best 923 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 2: chance to win the Super Bowl this year, and you 924 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:30,879 Speaker 2: rated them by the personnel they have by color Help 925 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,640 Speaker 2: me out here, because I don't have the color coding 926 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 2: in front of me. How did you do? And what 927 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 2: it's all about? 928 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,879 Speaker 4: Okay, so now it's not about this year. So what 929 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 4: I wanted to do is I'm due to exercise where 930 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 4: we were rating the championship windows. Teams who have a 931 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,560 Speaker 4: window that extends beyond this year, the teams that should 932 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 4: be good for the next three to four years based 933 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:53,239 Speaker 4: on the personnel. And what we did is we ring 934 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 4: blue chippers the guys who are considered like top five, 935 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,839 Speaker 4: top ten of their positions around the league. Greens were 936 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 4: solid starters, Pinks were first year guys that are still 937 00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 4: yet to be determined how good they will be. Yellows 938 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:09,839 Speaker 4: there's questions about them, whether it's injury or contract that 939 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 4: prevent them from being long term solutions and so. And 940 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 4: during the exercise, we kind of broke it down and 941 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:16,839 Speaker 4: tossed it around. And some of the teams that at 942 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 4: the top of the food chain doesn't necessarily mean they 943 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 4: will continue to be there going forward, just based on 944 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 4: how their roster is composed, and some of the guys 945 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 4: nearing the end of the line when it comes to 946 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 4: their age. 947 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 2: Okay, so this is a little complicated for me. You 948 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 2: got to help me out because I'm not that smart. 949 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 4: It's not complicated. It's not complicated like the way I get. 950 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 2: Missed up with the colors. I really I'm a little 951 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 2: color blind. 952 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 4: No, no, no, just think about it. Blue blue is everything, right, 953 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:43,000 Speaker 4: blue chippers. So you hear people refer to players as 954 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 4: blue chip players. Blue chip players are your best players 955 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 4: and most championship teams should have eight to ten blue 956 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:54,840 Speaker 4: chip players at a championship level. But the way that 957 00:43:54,880 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 4: we did it, we broke out twelve positions and teams 958 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 4: are comprised of like the Big twelve, and so quarterback 959 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 4: is three offensive linemen, three offensive playmakers, two pass rushers, 960 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 4: and then three defensive playmakers that play on the second level. 961 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 4: So linebacker dB as a weld. So of those twelve, 962 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:23,440 Speaker 4: if you have six seven blue chip players, you're in 963 00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 4: the money when it comes to being a championship team. 964 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:28,719 Speaker 4: And if you have them in their prime where their 965 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 4: ages are like twenty five to twenty eight, then you 966 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 4: feel good about being able to sustain to run for 967 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 4: a few years. 968 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:39,520 Speaker 2: Okay, so according to your calculations here, you got the 969 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:42,319 Speaker 2: Kansas City Chiefs one, which is like they have the 970 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 2: best opportunity to repeat for the next several years at 971 00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:47,799 Speaker 2: least be a Super Bowl contender this year. Because on 972 00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:51,719 Speaker 2: the blue Chippers of Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelcey, and Mahomes 973 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,319 Speaker 2: is twenty eight, quarterback Kelsey a tight end is thirty four. 974 00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:57,319 Speaker 2: It looks like you got the cornerback Trump McDuffie at 975 00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 2: twenty three. He's a blue chipper as well. Okay, So 976 00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 2: in other words, it's the Kisa City Chiefs. So that 977 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 2: that's I mean, it seems to me you did a 978 00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:06,360 Speaker 2: lot of work, a lot of preparation, which you know, 979 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 2: and I'm kind of a lazy kind of guy. I 980 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:10,320 Speaker 2: could have said the same thing with all these color codings, 981 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 2: right with the Kansas City's possibility, right, kends is to 982 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,719 Speaker 2: be a good chance to repeat, to go to the 983 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:18,920 Speaker 2: Super Bowl, right, Chris Jones the fort tackle. 984 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, but what we want to do is we want 985 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:23,880 Speaker 4: to shed light because everyone thinks they're going to be 986 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,640 Speaker 4: good just because of the quarterback. But what I wanted 987 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:28,840 Speaker 4: to highlight is look at the rest of their roster. 988 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 4: So Travis Kelce is older, Chris Jones is older, but 989 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:35,360 Speaker 4: look at the other young guys that are playing. Nick Bolton, 990 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:40,200 Speaker 4: Trent McDuffie, whether it's Leono Chanault or Drew Tranquill being 991 00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:43,719 Speaker 4: on there, Trey Smith, Creed Humphrey, Joe Thuney, Like, they 992 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:47,040 Speaker 4: have a lot of good players that are in the 993 00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,279 Speaker 4: prime of their careers. And so even though we'll talk 994 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:52,879 Speaker 4: about Kelsey and Jones, this thing is sustainable. They could 995 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 4: be a good team for a long time. 996 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 2: Okay, Now, now you got me going here, because so 997 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:01,399 Speaker 2: you've got the Philadelphia Eagles and the Detroit Lions two 998 00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 2: and three, right, but you got Jalen Hirts is not 999 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 2: a blue Chipper at quarterback and Jared Goff not a 1000 00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,600 Speaker 2: blue chipper a quarterback. But the Detroit Lions. However, you 1001 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:12,759 Speaker 2: still think that these two teams will be Super Bowl 1002 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,879 Speaker 2: contenders because, as you say, they may have enough blue 1003 00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:18,880 Speaker 2: chippers even though their quarterbacks are not. Correct. 1004 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, now, and let's make sure we understand this. Then 1005 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,279 Speaker 4: we're talking about blue chip players. We're talking about top 1006 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:29,359 Speaker 4: five quarterbacks. I can't say if of the two, Jerry 1007 00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 4: Goff is the one that has the argument that he 1008 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 4: could have with me about being a top five player 1009 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,239 Speaker 4: because he played like a top five quarterback last year. 1010 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:35,720 Speaker 2: Correct. 1011 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 4: Jalen Hurst didn't two years ago. Jalen Hurst was the 1012 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,239 Speaker 4: runner up to the MVP. Last year, he fell off 1013 00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,800 Speaker 4: a cliff, didn't play well. Green means he's a solid starter, 1014 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:46,840 Speaker 4: have a ton of respect for what he is. But 1015 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:49,320 Speaker 4: he didn't play at that level. But the people around 1016 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 4: him are still good. When we think about the Eagles, 1017 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:55,240 Speaker 4: the wide receivers AJ Brown, Devonte Smith respectively, Lane Johnson 1018 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,720 Speaker 4: on the offensive line, Look, you can talk about ma Alta, 1019 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 4: the other offensive lineman that is really good. Defensively, they're 1020 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:06,799 Speaker 4: trying to get back to what they were. They don't 1021 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:09,040 Speaker 4: have as many Blue Chippers, but they got green guys. 1022 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,759 Speaker 4: And then in Detroit they are loaded on offense. Their 1023 00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,399 Speaker 4: offense can carry them for a long time. Jerry Goff, 1024 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 4: Omamas Saint Brown, Sam Laporter, Jamior Gibbs being a guy 1025 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:23,440 Speaker 4: that is outstanding. Offensive lineman Penney Sewell is terrific, and 1026 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:26,440 Speaker 4: then Aiden Hutcheson on the defensive side. The Detroit Lions 1027 00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 4: could make an argument that they should be over top 1028 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 4: of the field DEAFI Eagles, and in fact, if you 1029 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:32,400 Speaker 4: go back and look at the NFC Championship game last year, 1030 00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 4: they should have been a team represent in the NFC 1031 00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 4: in the Super Bowl. 1032 00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:37,000 Speaker 2: Well you're right about that, though, I'm looking at the 1033 00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:40,839 Speaker 2: Philadelphia Eagles, you know, for them to really be in 1034 00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:44,920 Speaker 2: the running for the Lombardi Trophy again, they don't have 1035 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:47,120 Speaker 2: that many blue Chippers. AJ Brown, you got shit. Kwon 1036 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:50,440 Speaker 2: Barkley's a blue Chipper right. Other than that, on the 1037 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:53,360 Speaker 2: offensive line, I think they got two right Lane Johnson 1038 00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:53,719 Speaker 2: is he a. 1039 00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:55,120 Speaker 4: Blue, James Johnson, Lane. 1040 00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:57,440 Speaker 2: Johnson, and maybe in the quarterback position Mitchell is he 1041 00:47:57,480 --> 00:47:59,719 Speaker 2: a blue chipper. So they got four or five blue 1042 00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:03,040 Speaker 2: chip and you need, as you said, possibly eight to 1043 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 2: be a contender. So the Eagles right now they're kind 1044 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:09,200 Speaker 2: of shaky, especially at the quarterback position, because you don't 1045 00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:11,279 Speaker 2: consider Jalen Hurts, at least last year was not a 1046 00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:11,880 Speaker 2: blue chipper. 1047 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:14,520 Speaker 4: Now he didn't play it as a blue chip level. 1048 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:16,840 Speaker 4: And what I'm trying to do is give Lifetime Achievement awards. 1049 00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:19,840 Speaker 4: I try and give it on what they did most recently. 1050 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 4: And so he hasn't played it at level, so I 1051 00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 4: can't just give it to him. I can't just say 1052 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:23,920 Speaker 4: he's a blue chip player. 1053 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:28,719 Speaker 2: Okay, So now I'm moving to the team Number three? 1054 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:32,799 Speaker 2: Is that four? The San Francisco forty nine ers? Do 1055 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:36,000 Speaker 2: you am? I correct saying here that the color code 1056 00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:39,920 Speaker 2: that you have that Brock Purty is a better color 1057 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 2: coder than Jared Goff. 1058 00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:47,760 Speaker 4: Said. Brock Purdy has played like a top five quarterback 1059 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,040 Speaker 4: the last two years. Whether you like him or not, 1060 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:51,960 Speaker 4: whether you talk about him being too small, he just 1061 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,719 Speaker 4: doesn't look the part. Brock Party has played like a 1062 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 4: blue chip quarterback. That's why I give him all the love. 1063 00:48:57,360 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 4: And people are talking about him surrounded by all that 1064 00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 4: talent all the time to run him is great. But 1065 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:02,759 Speaker 4: he's played. 1066 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:05,200 Speaker 2: Great, Okay, but he's played great because of that town. 1067 00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:07,680 Speaker 2: He's played great billions of guys like McCaffrey and Kittle 1068 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,280 Speaker 2: and a that's why he's playing great. 1069 00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:12,879 Speaker 4: You know, I saw Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo play 1070 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:15,399 Speaker 4: around those same guys and they didn't look like brock 1071 00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:17,880 Speaker 4: Purdy looked. So I'm gonna give the player the credit 1072 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:21,920 Speaker 4: for what he has added to that offense. Jimmy Garoppolo 1073 00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,399 Speaker 4: couldn't make the plays that brock Purdy was making. Trey 1074 00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:26,839 Speaker 4: Lance couldn't make the plays that brock Purdy is making. 1075 00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 4: So I'm I'm gonna give brock Purdy his due. He 1076 00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:31,359 Speaker 4: deserves his flowers. He is a blue chip player in 1077 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:31,800 Speaker 4: my book. 1078 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 2: Okay, And according to your calculations here, they only have 1079 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:41,040 Speaker 2: five blue chippers correct, Purdy, McCaffrey, Kittle of three. On 1080 00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,600 Speaker 2: the edge, they got Nick Bosey he's four, and Fred 1081 00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:46,440 Speaker 2: Warner at linebacker. That's five five blue chippers for the 1082 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:47,320 Speaker 2: forty nine ers. 1083 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:51,920 Speaker 4: Trent Williams would also be in that conversation. Trim Williams, 1084 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 4: he's holding out. Brandon Nyuk could be in that conversation. 1085 00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:58,800 Speaker 4: But I didn't have enough slots based on those things. 1086 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:01,120 Speaker 4: The reason why the nine his fall behind those other 1087 00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 4: guys looked at the ages of those players. Like those ages, 1088 00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:08,920 Speaker 4: they're older. Trent Williams is thirty six, George Kittle is thirty, 1089 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:13,800 Speaker 4: Christ McCaffrey is twenty eight, which is old for running 1090 00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:17,080 Speaker 4: back for at Warner's twenty seven. So this window that 1091 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:20,759 Speaker 4: they're in, they're nearing the end of their run. They're 1092 00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:23,759 Speaker 4: still in the conversation this year, but after they paid 1093 00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 4: Rod party with some of those older guys, they're not 1094 00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:27,360 Speaker 4: gonna be able to keep all those guys around. 1095 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:31,080 Speaker 2: No, you're right, Okay, here's the key right here, which 1096 00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 2: kind of like to me makes me want to question 1097 00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:37,120 Speaker 2: the deal. You got team number five as the Baltimore Ravens, 1098 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 2: all right, I got you there, But how could they 1099 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:42,759 Speaker 2: be number five if you got seven Blue Chippers on 1100 00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:46,400 Speaker 2: that roster, including Lamar jacks Well, Lamar Jackson's not a 1101 00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:48,120 Speaker 2: blue Is he a Blue Chipper? I can't tell him 1102 00:50:48,520 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 2: blue chipper. He's Lamartin, Derek Henry's a blue chipper, Mark 1103 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 2: Andrews a tight end, Lyndon Bauma center, he's a blue chipper. 1104 00:50:57,040 --> 00:51:02,479 Speaker 2: Who else? Kyle Hamilton at safety and Rokine Smith at linebacker, got. 1105 00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:08,680 Speaker 4: Sim Smith and Justin Mediwick. Here's okay, here's yeah, But 1106 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 4: here's where you have to look at Okay, So one 1107 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,120 Speaker 4: of the guys who's the key limps you're into their team. 1108 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 4: Derrick Henry's thirty years old? Can he continue to play 1109 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:20,600 Speaker 4: at that level? Lamar Jackson? Are we confident that Lamar 1110 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:22,360 Speaker 4: Jackson iss going to continue to play at that level? 1111 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:24,000 Speaker 4: So you give him credit for what he is. He 1112 00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:26,320 Speaker 4: played at a blue chip level last year. Derick Henry 1113 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,759 Speaker 4: has played at a blue chip level. But when I 1114 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,360 Speaker 4: look at them, Mark Andrews, it's twenty eight, I think, 1115 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:35,200 Speaker 4: so that's older for a player. So in my mind, 1116 00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:36,840 Speaker 4: when I look at how they're going to have to 1117 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 4: transition over the next two or three years, are they 1118 00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 4: going to be able to place Derrick Henry? Can they 1119 00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:45,160 Speaker 4: find another guy as an offensive play making it to 1120 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:49,279 Speaker 4: be a blue chip player besides Lamar Jackson? I don't 1121 00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:52,439 Speaker 4: see it currently on their roster, but I give them 1122 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 4: credit for what they have. I give them credit for 1123 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:56,319 Speaker 4: being in the conversation because they have a really good 1124 00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:59,319 Speaker 4: roster of homegrown players. But when I look at maybe 1125 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:01,520 Speaker 4: some of the sustain the ability after deeming them a 1126 00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:03,080 Speaker 4: little bit just because of the age of some of 1127 00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:04,040 Speaker 4: their blue chair players. 1128 00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:07,440 Speaker 2: Okay, look, I'm not here to punch holes in your system, 1129 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:10,520 Speaker 2: but yesh, yeah, I get You're right, I am. But 1130 00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 2: the point is I think it led. It leads to 1131 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:15,960 Speaker 2: good conversation and good arguments. Okay, you have to agree 1132 00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:17,840 Speaker 2: to that because you got team number six in the 1133 00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:21,560 Speaker 2: Houston Texans, and certainly you got CJ. Stroud, and I 1134 00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:23,719 Speaker 2: get what you're doing now. He played at a blue 1135 00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:25,760 Speaker 2: chip level last year even though he was a rookie. 1136 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:28,040 Speaker 2: The question is can he do it again at the 1137 00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:31,440 Speaker 2: age of twenty two? But you only have four blue Chippers, 1138 00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:34,560 Speaker 2: including CJ. Stroud, a quarterback on the Houston Texas and 1139 00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:37,799 Speaker 2: their team number six, right, only four on that team, 1140 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:39,080 Speaker 2: I mean only four? 1141 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:42,799 Speaker 4: Yeah, only four. But remember now we're also banking on 1142 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:45,640 Speaker 4: some of those greens turning into blue. So some of 1143 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,480 Speaker 4: those solid starters that they have in place, like a 1144 00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:50,359 Speaker 4: Nico Collins, a tank deal some of those guys, we're 1145 00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 4: counting on them moving and improving and becoming blue chair 1146 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:57,399 Speaker 4: players down the line. We have Will Anderson and Daniel Hunter. 1147 00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:00,640 Speaker 4: Daniel Hunters a Blue, but we're thinking Will Anderson defensive 1148 00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:02,759 Speaker 4: Rookie of the Year. Maybe he takes his game up 1149 00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:05,840 Speaker 4: a notch in year two he becomes a blue. Derekstanely 1150 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 4: being a blue player, he continues to play at that level. 1151 00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:11,200 Speaker 4: So what we're doing some of this is also a 1152 00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:13,879 Speaker 4: projection that some of these greens are going to turn 1153 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:15,560 Speaker 4: into blues. And I want to make sure that I'm 1154 00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 4: on the front end of the conversation. 1155 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,279 Speaker 2: Okay, let's go team number seven, because you got ten 1156 00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:22,479 Speaker 2: teams here, Green Bay to Green Bay Packers. They don't 1157 00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:25,399 Speaker 2: have any Blue Chippers. They didn't have one, And I'd 1158 00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:27,440 Speaker 2: have to argue that Jordan Love played I thought at 1159 00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:29,480 Speaker 2: a blue chip level. List did the team started two 1160 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:31,279 Speaker 2: and five and it got him into the playoffs and 1161 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 2: they kind of lost a heartbreaker in one of the 1162 00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:36,080 Speaker 2: playoff games that could have moved on further. Did you 1163 00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:37,399 Speaker 2: think Jordan Love played like a. 1164 00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:40,239 Speaker 4: Blue Chipper at the last half of the season and 1165 00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 4: not the entire season. The last half of the season. 1166 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:44,239 Speaker 4: He played at a high level. I think the last 1167 00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 4: half of the season. There was a stretch from maybe 1168 00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 4: Week nine until the Division A round where he had 1169 00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:54,719 Speaker 4: twenty one touchdowns and only one interception or two interception. Yeah, 1170 00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:57,520 Speaker 4: he played at a high level. But that's half a season. 1171 00:53:57,680 --> 00:54:00,239 Speaker 4: Are we ready to crown him a top five player 1172 00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:03,960 Speaker 4: for life just because he gave us a flash? I mean, like, 1173 00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:06,440 Speaker 4: it's not the Lifetime Achievement Award. We just don't give 1174 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:08,640 Speaker 4: away the Blues because if we say Blues is a 1175 00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:11,239 Speaker 4: tough five, like everybody can't make it. Everybody can't make 1176 00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:11,759 Speaker 4: tough five. 1177 00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:14,720 Speaker 2: You're tough, Fucky, you really are. You're tough. I'm too easy. 1178 00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:17,840 Speaker 2: And what you're saying also is that there's a question 1179 00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,640 Speaker 2: mark over the Green Bay Packers. They may what you're 1180 00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:22,759 Speaker 2: saying here, according to the charge, they may not be 1181 00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 2: as successful as they were a year ago because are 1182 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:26,239 Speaker 2: the questions they may have right. 1183 00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:29,440 Speaker 4: Or you can look at it differently, that this is 1184 00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:31,880 Speaker 4: a team on the rise because they don't have the 1185 00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:34,720 Speaker 4: blue chip players yet. Look at the youth that's sprung 1186 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:38,000 Speaker 4: throughout there. Look at all these young green players that 1187 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 4: are playing as solid starters. These guys are only a 1188 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 4: year or two in the league. These guys can be 1189 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:45,200 Speaker 4: blue players in no time if they continue to progress 1190 00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:47,719 Speaker 4: like they're progressing. The Green Bay Packers are one of 1191 00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:49,440 Speaker 4: those teams that we can talk about being in the 1192 00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:50,680 Speaker 4: conversation all the time. 1193 00:54:51,080 --> 00:54:53,239 Speaker 2: Okay, one of the teams that I think is have 1194 00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:56,480 Speaker 2: a big question mark on a big storyline coming into 1195 00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 2: this year is the New York Jets. I think you 1196 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:00,600 Speaker 2: only had eight, am I correct at eight teams? I 1197 00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:05,120 Speaker 2: think at eight and right the number eight, and according 1198 00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:08,280 Speaker 2: to your shot, they have five blue Chippers. Aaron Rodgers 1199 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:11,880 Speaker 2: obviously blank because he only played what two downs or 1200 00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:15,640 Speaker 2: whatever it was and he got hurt. But to me, how 1201 00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:19,239 Speaker 2: do you have the Green Bay Packers at eight and 1202 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:22,960 Speaker 2: you have them with five blue Chippers and my Cincinnati 1203 00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:25,760 Speaker 2: Bengals aren't even in the top eight. I don't understand 1204 00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:26,680 Speaker 2: how that could be. 1205 00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:30,600 Speaker 4: Where the Bengals, I mean the Bengals, the Bengals are 1206 00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:32,719 Speaker 4: outside of the eight. But like, who are the blue 1207 00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:35,600 Speaker 4: chick players? So let's just right now randomly talk about 1208 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:40,360 Speaker 4: the blue chip player. Jamar Chase Bluto, Joe Burrow, Jamar Chase, 1209 00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:43,920 Speaker 4: uh T Higgins would be on the line. All right, 1210 00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:44,879 Speaker 4: so that's maybe three. 1211 00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:46,560 Speaker 2: Couldn't say has. 1212 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:52,240 Speaker 4: No player. No, he's that blue chip, he's not blue 1213 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:56,399 Speaker 4: we can give I give you Trey Hendrickson. Yes, who else? 1214 00:55:57,200 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 4: That's four? Who else? Okay, they're generous with Higgins. 1215 00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 2: Okay, you're right, and he was heard last year too. 1216 00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:06,400 Speaker 2: But here's the thing. You've had teams with four in 1217 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:08,520 Speaker 2: the top eight. So I don't know why they can't 1218 00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:11,000 Speaker 2: be in the top eight with four because. 1219 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:12,279 Speaker 4: The depth of the rest of the team. So when 1220 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:13,719 Speaker 4: I look at the rest of the team, I think 1221 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:15,600 Speaker 4: the other guys are better. So we talked about the 1222 00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:18,239 Speaker 4: Green Bay Packers. A lot of their offensive line is 1223 00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:20,879 Speaker 4: in green But the Green Bay Packers, some would say, 1224 00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,120 Speaker 4: have a top five offensive line when you rank them 1225 00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:25,120 Speaker 4: from top to bottom in terms of the depth and 1226 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:29,160 Speaker 4: all that other stuff. Cincinnati has issues on their offensive line. 1227 00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:33,240 Speaker 4: Outside of Trey Hendrickson, who's the established pass rusher up front? 1228 00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:36,239 Speaker 4: I like Sam Hubbard. I've always been Sam Hubby's biggest fan, 1229 00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:38,279 Speaker 4: but he's not a blue chip player. So there's not 1230 00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:41,279 Speaker 4: another partner to go with Trey Henderson. And the secondary 1231 00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:44,000 Speaker 4: secondary is the great Yeah, who's a great play So 1232 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:46,759 Speaker 4: there we are, so we're top heavy. We have those 1233 00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:48,920 Speaker 4: four players, but the depth of the roster, So what 1234 00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:51,399 Speaker 4: we're also trying to do is the depth of those 1235 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:53,720 Speaker 4: twelve that we're picking out right when we talk about 1236 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:57,160 Speaker 4: those key and critical positions, what today look like. So 1237 00:56:57,160 --> 00:56:58,759 Speaker 4: that's why they failed on the outside. 1238 00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,640 Speaker 2: Last, but not least, I think you've done a wonderful job. 1239 00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:02,719 Speaker 2: And I tell you if you, if you're a fan 1240 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:05,240 Speaker 2: of the NFL, you really need to go to NFL 1241 00:57:05,320 --> 00:57:07,160 Speaker 2: dot com, look at the writers and scroll down to 1242 00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:10,279 Speaker 2: Bucket Brooks. This may be your best work because it 1243 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:14,080 Speaker 2: gives it's a thought provocative situation where you look at it. 1244 00:57:14,120 --> 00:57:15,680 Speaker 2: A lot of work, a lot of time was put 1245 00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:17,480 Speaker 2: into it. I know you spent you had to spend 1246 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 2: a lot of time doing this, and I think it's wonderful. 1247 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:22,680 Speaker 2: I'm sure. I'm sure the scouts and coaches around the 1248 00:57:22,720 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 2: league have looked at it as well. Have you gotten 1249 00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:26,560 Speaker 2: any feedback on this from people? 1250 00:57:27,400 --> 00:57:29,840 Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, I haven't paid attention to feedback, 1251 00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 4: like the thoughts of our own I don't. I don't like, 1252 00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:34,800 Speaker 4: I haven't got feedback about like whether it's great or not. 1253 00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:38,040 Speaker 4: I've gotten challenged like you challenged me on your Cincinnati 1254 00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:40,880 Speaker 4: Bingals not being included in there. But I mean I 1255 00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:43,520 Speaker 4: kind of I kind of view the Bengals like Skyline Chili. 1256 00:57:43,760 --> 00:57:46,600 Speaker 4: It's an acquired taste. It's not for everybody. It's an 1257 00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:50,120 Speaker 4: acquired it's an acquired taste. Lookally, what may be good 1258 00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 4: for you may not be good for me. 1259 00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:55,760 Speaker 2: I hear you, Okay, I mean, and I think you've 1260 00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:57,320 Speaker 2: done a great job on this. I mean I really 1261 00:57:57,400 --> 00:58:00,240 Speaker 2: enjoyed looking at it and delving into it, and it's 1262 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:03,760 Speaker 2: worth it's worth it to look at it. And really 1263 00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:06,560 Speaker 2: kind of I'm going to keep this just to see 1264 00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:08,480 Speaker 2: if the fact that comes No, not to see if 1265 00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:11,440 Speaker 2: it comes true, because again, I mean, you put yourself 1266 00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:14,040 Speaker 2: on the line a little bit by doing this, honestly, but. 1267 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 4: It's not it's not just this year, it's the next 1268 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,040 Speaker 4: it's the next few years, not just this year, not 1269 00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:18,680 Speaker 4: just this year. 1270 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:22,080 Speaker 2: All right, I hear what you're saying. And what about 1271 00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:24,640 Speaker 2: the team teams in that division? That division is so tough. 1272 00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:27,400 Speaker 2: I didn't say the Cleveland Browns worth in there, right, 1273 00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:28,360 Speaker 2: the Cleveland Browns. 1274 00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:30,600 Speaker 4: I mean, let's okay, so let's let's think about it. 1275 00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:33,360 Speaker 4: We can't put their quarterback as a Blue, but they 1276 00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:36,000 Speaker 4: do have one of the more talented rosters, right Amari 1277 00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,400 Speaker 4: Cooper could be a Blue, but he's thirty years old. 1278 00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:42,240 Speaker 4: That's an old player. David n Joku could be up there. 1279 00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:45,240 Speaker 4: Offensive line is solid. They be kind of litterick Greens. 1280 00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:49,720 Speaker 4: Defensive line. Miles Garrett would be in that conversation for sure. 1281 00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 2: He could be the defensive player of the year. 1282 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:56,480 Speaker 4: You said, yeah, he could be. Denzel Ward, Jeremiah o 1283 00:58:56,680 --> 00:58:59,240 Speaker 4: su Core Moore could be in that conversation as a Blue. 1284 00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:01,360 Speaker 4: So they has a players. They had a legitimate argument, 1285 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:05,400 Speaker 4: but then their thing hinges on Deshaun Watson. How confident 1286 00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:07,600 Speaker 4: are we that Deshaun Watson's going to get back to 1287 00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:09,600 Speaker 4: being the player that he once was in Houston. 1288 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:12,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll get into that too, We really will. All right, 1289 00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:14,400 Speaker 2: Bucky did a great job. I really think. I mean 1290 00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:17,440 Speaker 2: it's great going through that stuff.

Now, Bucky Brooks, we talked about the Cleveland 1327 01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:04,480 Speaker 2: Browns for a second. Let's get into this for a second. Now, 1328 01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:09,200 Speaker 2: the year three of the union between that quarterback Deshaun 1329 01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:11,040 Speaker 2: Watson and the Cleveland Browns, and a lot of people 1330 01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:14,080 Speaker 2: even forgot that he's that quarterback. They want to return 1331 01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:16,480 Speaker 2: their investment, a return of the two hundred and thirty 1332 01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:18,560 Speaker 2: million dollars they spent in the six draft picks that 1333 01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:22,120 Speaker 2: gave up for the guy and he started. If you remember, 1334 01:01:22,160 --> 01:01:25,840 Speaker 2: I think that Deshaun Watson's signing with the Browns started 1335 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:29,600 Speaker 2: this cash flow of quarterbacks. I'm correct. I think he 1336 01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:31,680 Speaker 2: was the big one and everybody follow that. 1337 01:01:33,080 --> 01:01:34,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's one of the big ones. And what he 1338 01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:36,800 Speaker 4: did is he was able to get the fully guaranteed deal, 1339 01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:39,520 Speaker 4: and by getting the fully guaranteed deal, he pushed up 1340 01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:42,439 Speaker 4: some of the expectations quarterbacks had, whether it's the cash 1341 01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:46,000 Speaker 4: outlay that they got early or the number in terms 1342 01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:47,720 Speaker 4: of the average when he was over the forty million 1343 01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:49,360 Speaker 4: dollar mark. Yeah, he did a really good job of 1344 01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:52,320 Speaker 4: pushing the market up. And the market has continued to 1345 01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:55,560 Speaker 4: go up. As the salary cap has gone up, quarterbacks 1346 01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:57,120 Speaker 4: have gotten a bigger piece of the pie. 1347 01:01:57,280 --> 01:02:00,160 Speaker 2: Let's see what he's done. Year one. Deshaun Watsons out 1348 01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:03,040 Speaker 2: of eleven games. He had a suspension for sexual misconduct 1349 01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:05,280 Speaker 2: when he was at the Texans the final stretch of 1350 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:07,400 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two. He was just trying to get back 1351 01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:09,880 Speaker 2: in shaping at the rust off last fall, had that 1352 01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:13,000 Speaker 2: shoulder injury, had some surgery. Season was over, and guess what, 1353 01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:15,880 Speaker 2: Joe Flakall comes out of the comes off his couch 1354 01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:18,640 Speaker 2: and took him to the playoffs. So now, and you 1355 01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 2: tell me how important coaches are. Ken Dorsey now is 1356 01:02:21,520 --> 01:02:24,280 Speaker 2: the new offensive coordinator in Cleveland. He comes over from 1357 01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:26,400 Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills. Is not going to be a major 1358 01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:30,920 Speaker 2: difference in the effect of Deshaun Watson's performance this year. 1359 01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:33,320 Speaker 2: What do we do Because you know, Josh Allen did 1360 01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:36,120 Speaker 2: pretty well under Dorsey, Ken Watson follow. 1361 01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:39,479 Speaker 4: That you'd like to think, so, I think it's big 1362 01:02:39,520 --> 01:02:42,320 Speaker 4: for Kevin Stefanski to step outside of himself. Ken Sevanski 1363 01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 4: has been a really good play caller. He's been the 1364 01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:47,400 Speaker 4: offensive coordinator slash head coach since he got there. He's 1365 01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:49,640 Speaker 4: had a lot of success to step away and allow 1366 01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:51,640 Speaker 4: someone else to do it. To me, he speaks volumes 1367 01:02:51,680 --> 01:02:57,600 Speaker 4: about him, but also it speaks to him understanding that 1368 01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:01,000 Speaker 4: his quarterback isn't a great fit for this system that 1369 01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:03,960 Speaker 4: they were using. So he wanted can Dorsty come in? 1370 01:03:04,040 --> 01:03:06,919 Speaker 4: Can Dorrissey had had success with Cam Newton, Can Doris 1371 01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:09,600 Speaker 4: he had worked with Josh Allen, And even though those 1372 01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:13,440 Speaker 4: guys are terrific athletes and real athletic quarterbacks, Deshaun Watson 1373 01:03:13,520 --> 01:03:16,000 Speaker 4: is an athletic quarterback, but in a different way. He 1374 01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:19,800 Speaker 4: doesn't necessarily use his legs as like the primary weapon 1375 01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:22,760 Speaker 4: that he has, even though he's athletic enough to do so. 1376 01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:26,120 Speaker 4: Ken Dorsey does a really good job of creating offenses. 1377 01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:29,040 Speaker 4: Taylor made to the quarterback, and he'll make it a 1378 01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:32,640 Speaker 4: quarterback friendly system. Allow Deshaun Watson to have some ownership 1379 01:03:32,680 --> 01:03:35,360 Speaker 4: and that hopefully will get him up and go in 1380 01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:37,600 Speaker 4: and knock off some of the rusts that has really 1381 01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:40,640 Speaker 4: jumped on his game. This guy was a three time 1382 01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:42,800 Speaker 4: Pro Bowl player and he has not been the same 1383 01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:44,840 Speaker 4: since he put on that Cleveland Browns uniform. 1384 01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:46,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the two big story lines in the 1385 01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:49,040 Speaker 2: NFL this year have to be Aaron Rodgers. Could he 1386 01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 2: come back to thirty nine and do what he can 1387 01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:53,040 Speaker 2: do and put this pressure in the jetsament you get 1388 01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:55,800 Speaker 2: them to the Promised Land. And could Deshaun Watson ever 1389 01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:58,440 Speaker 2: regain the three time Pro Bowl selection form that he 1390 01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:01,520 Speaker 2: had early in his career. That let's stick with Deshaun 1391 01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:04,000 Speaker 2: Watson for a second. He's got some receivers on that team. 1392 01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:06,480 Speaker 2: The defense is tremendous on the Cleveland Browns. They went 1393 01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 2: postseason last year without him. How difficult is it going 1394 01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:12,520 Speaker 2: to be for him? And honestly, and I hate to 1395 01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:16,080 Speaker 2: say this, but there's a factor that maybe people don't 1396 01:04:16,080 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 2: talk about the fact that he's got the money, most 1397 01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:20,640 Speaker 2: of it's guaranteed. Do you say to yourself. You know, 1398 01:04:20,800 --> 01:04:22,480 Speaker 2: maybe I don't have to perform. What do I have 1399 01:04:22,560 --> 01:04:24,840 Speaker 2: to prove? I got the money, Everything is great, your 1400 01:04:24,880 --> 01:04:28,320 Speaker 2: life is good. People are that way in the working world. 1401 01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:30,760 Speaker 2: You get the money, you kick back and say, you know, 1402 01:04:30,880 --> 01:04:32,760 Speaker 2: the heck with it. I don't have to bust my 1403 01:04:32,800 --> 01:04:33,760 Speaker 2: rear end anymore. 1404 01:04:34,880 --> 01:04:37,480 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, look, the money's a factor in that. 1405 01:04:37,560 --> 01:04:39,720 Speaker 4: I can't say that he isn't pride forling. That is 1406 01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:42,479 Speaker 4: kind of changed the way that he approaches the game. 1407 01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:46,720 Speaker 4: I'll say that maybe bad luck and circumstances, the circumstances 1408 01:04:46,840 --> 01:04:51,600 Speaker 4: coming over not playing because remember before we got to Cleveland, 1409 01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:55,800 Speaker 4: he took that entire year off in Houston where he 1410 01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:58,360 Speaker 4: was a disgruntled holdout. They didn't play him, but he 1411 01:04:58,400 --> 01:05:00,600 Speaker 4: said a whole year. So he went two year without 1412 01:05:00,640 --> 01:05:03,800 Speaker 4: really playing ball. Then he comes back, he works his 1413 01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:06,200 Speaker 4: way back into shape last year and he misses. So 1414 01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:10,880 Speaker 4: Deshaun Watson really hasn't played football in three years. That's man, 1415 01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:14,600 Speaker 4: that's a lifetime in the National Football League. He's and 1416 01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:18,600 Speaker 4: dependent upon what is off his rehab schedule and all that. 1417 01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:20,440 Speaker 4: There are a lot of things. That's why he's the 1418 01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:23,240 Speaker 4: biggest asterisk that we have we don't know what we're 1419 01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:25,200 Speaker 4: going to get from him because we don't know if 1420 01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:27,680 Speaker 4: he's fully healthy, and we also don't know if he'll 1421 01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:29,360 Speaker 4: ever knock off the rust on his game. 1422 01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:31,800 Speaker 2: Okay, he hasn't played in three years. I asked you 1423 01:05:31,840 --> 01:05:34,560 Speaker 2: the question, as put your coaches hat on right now. 1424 01:05:34,960 --> 01:05:37,480 Speaker 2: What is the one thing he's going to be hurting 1425 01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:39,760 Speaker 2: the most to get back in shape for. Is it 1426 01:05:39,800 --> 01:05:43,400 Speaker 2: his body? Is it his way? Is it the coordination throwing? 1427 01:05:43,520 --> 01:05:45,520 Speaker 2: What's the one thing that's going to be the most 1428 01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:46,600 Speaker 2: important thing to work on? 1429 01:05:47,960 --> 01:05:51,560 Speaker 4: Rhythm? Just his rhythm as a playmaker and passer. It 1430 01:05:51,640 --> 01:05:53,440 Speaker 4: was so easy for him when he was in Houston, 1431 01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:56,600 Speaker 4: whether he was throwing on time or off platform, it 1432 01:05:56,680 --> 01:05:59,160 Speaker 4: was easy. He just had a natural rhythm and cadence 1433 01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:01,840 Speaker 4: to the way that his game, his game was. He's 1434 01:06:01,920 --> 01:06:04,000 Speaker 4: lost some of that, and some of that comes with 1435 01:06:04,080 --> 01:06:06,480 Speaker 4: the loss of confidence. You begin to overthink it and 1436 01:06:06,520 --> 01:06:08,960 Speaker 4: instead of just naturally reacting to what happens in front 1437 01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:12,160 Speaker 4: of you, you begin to try and dictate and create 1438 01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:14,880 Speaker 4: things in your mind. He just has to settle land. 1439 01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:17,720 Speaker 4: He has to trust the system and trust himself that 1440 01:06:17,840 --> 01:06:19,880 Speaker 4: he's not only good enough to play at that level, 1441 01:06:20,120 --> 01:06:22,040 Speaker 4: but that the system is going to enable him to 1442 01:06:22,040 --> 01:06:23,760 Speaker 4: play at that level. If he does that, he'll have 1443 01:06:23,760 --> 01:06:25,680 Speaker 4: a better chance of having that kind of success that 1444 01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:26,760 Speaker 4: we used to see him fromhim. 1445 01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:28,919 Speaker 2: Okay, I'll put you on the spot right now. Will 1446 01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:31,400 Speaker 2: he come back? Canny come back? What do you expect 1447 01:06:31,440 --> 01:06:32,200 Speaker 2: from him this year? 1448 01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:34,440 Speaker 4: No? I think the Bron's is gonna be good, and 1449 01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:36,160 Speaker 4: I think he comes back. I think he plays at 1450 01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:39,400 Speaker 4: a really good has a really good season. He finds 1451 01:06:39,440 --> 01:06:41,160 Speaker 4: a way to make sure that Amark Cooper is fed, 1452 01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:43,520 Speaker 4: and then he works off of that in the passing game, 1453 01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:47,120 Speaker 4: and then it's about them managing the game. The defense 1454 01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:48,680 Speaker 4: is going to keep him in game and even give 1455 01:06:48,720 --> 01:06:52,560 Speaker 4: them opportunities to finish games early because the turnovers or 1456 01:06:52,600 --> 01:06:55,160 Speaker 4: sacks or negative plays. He has to be able to playmaker. 1457 01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:56,640 Speaker 4: He has to be able to make the plays to 1458 01:06:56,680 --> 01:06:57,240 Speaker 4: close it out. 1459 01:06:57,840 --> 01:06:59,360 Speaker 2: And does he have a close in his contract not 1460 01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:00,680 Speaker 2: to get miss anymore? 1461 01:07:02,560 --> 01:07:07,600 Speaker 4: I don't know. Like only only Ohioans we know get 1462 01:07:07,680 --> 01:07:08,160 Speaker 4: rubbed out. 1463 01:07:08,480 --> 01:07:10,520 Speaker 2: Here we go, He's fucking Brooks.

Showyo Tony did go deep launching that one 1501 01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:23,720 Speaker 8: in the orbit. It seems like he often does, but man, 1502 01:09:23,760 --> 01:09:26,120 Speaker 8: this one went well into the upper deck in right 1503 01:09:26,160 --> 01:09:29,000 Speaker 8: field at Minute Made Park. It was his thirty second 1504 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:32,080 Speaker 8: home run.

In Game number two, Blake Snell pitched well 1507 01:09:37,840 --> 01:09:40,080 Speaker 8: enough to get the win, got a no decision instead, 1508 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:43,080 Speaker 8: but I'm sure he's incredibly happy with how that game went, 1509 01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:48,320 Speaker 8: as he got fifteen strikeouts in just six innings of work. 1510 01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:51,439 Speaker 8: The Padres on a roll.

We'll get to that in just 1517 01:10:04,880 --> 01:10:07,599 Speaker 2: about a minute.

And let's talk about pressure, 1521 01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:17,960 Speaker 2: all right, winning and the pressure to win. Now you 1522 01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:20,040 Speaker 2: played the game, have you seen it on any of 1523 01:10:20,080 --> 01:10:22,800 Speaker 2: your coaches faces in college or in the pros? Has 1524 01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:25,760 Speaker 2: their attitude change knowing going into a season that if 1525 01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:27,280 Speaker 2: they don't win there's a good chance they're going to 1526 01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:27,799 Speaker 2: be gone. 1527 01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:29,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I've seen it. 1528 01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:31,280 Speaker 2: You want to mention any names. 1529 01:10:31,640 --> 01:10:34,320 Speaker 4: When I was in North Carolina, Mac Brown college Football 1530 01:10:34,320 --> 01:10:38,200 Speaker 4: Hall of Famer the season before I arrived at Carolina, 1531 01:10:38,240 --> 01:10:40,960 Speaker 4: he was one in ten my freshman year, he was 1532 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:43,760 Speaker 4: one in ten, So two and twenty going into my 1533 01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:48,280 Speaker 4: sophomore season. I could feel the pressure on him. Everyone 1534 01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:50,840 Speaker 4: in the program could feel the pressure that he had. 1535 01:10:51,760 --> 01:10:55,040 Speaker 4: You can't survive a two and twenty start these days 1536 01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:58,040 Speaker 4: in college football, and it's really remarkable that he was 1537 01:10:58,080 --> 01:11:02,280 Speaker 4: able to survive it then finished going six four and one, 1538 01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:04,320 Speaker 4: and that was kind of a catalyst that kind of 1539 01:11:04,320 --> 01:11:07,680 Speaker 4: got the program jump started. But I remember seeing him 1540 01:11:07,680 --> 01:11:09,600 Speaker 4: having to deal with all that in the offseason the 1541 01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:12,000 Speaker 4: early part of the season, trying to find a way 1542 01:11:12,040 --> 01:11:15,360 Speaker 4: to win games. Yeah, it can change who you are 1543 01:11:15,400 --> 01:11:17,320 Speaker 4: and how you go about your business if you are 1544 01:11:17,400 --> 01:11:20,320 Speaker 4: let it. But the great coaches like coach Brown was, 1545 01:11:20,360 --> 01:11:22,840 Speaker 4: they just kind of stayed a course. They trust in 1546 01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:24,840 Speaker 4: what they trust in. They continue to say the same 1547 01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:27,400 Speaker 4: message to the players each and every every week, and 1548 01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:28,719 Speaker 4: eventually they turned the corner. 1549 01:11:29,080 --> 01:11:31,280 Speaker 2: Wow, I look, it's really early. There's no doubt about that, 1550 01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:33,200 Speaker 2: But there was a handful of coaches in the NFL 1551 01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:36,920 Speaker 2: that are opening training camp right now on the unbelievable 1552 01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:39,720 Speaker 2: amount of pressure they really are, and they're teams have 1553 01:11:39,720 --> 01:11:42,599 Speaker 2: shown some promise, but they fell short. I mean, we're 1554 01:11:42,600 --> 01:11:44,600 Speaker 2: not talking about teams with losing records, with teams and 1555 01:11:44,720 --> 01:11:48,479 Speaker 2: expectations that have not met those expectations. And coaches like 1556 01:11:48,520 --> 01:11:52,800 Speaker 2: Sean McDermott in Buffalo, Nick Sirianni in Philadelphia, Mike McDaniel 1557 01:11:52,840 --> 01:11:55,559 Speaker 2: and Miami, Doug Peterson and Jacksonville, and you're close to 1558 01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:59,360 Speaker 2: that situation. They really need strong starts this year and 1559 01:11:59,439 --> 01:12:03,360 Speaker 2: maybe deep playoff fronts as well to convince their ownership 1560 01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:05,640 Speaker 2: group that, look, you're gonna be back here with us. 1561 01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:07,519 Speaker 2: So let's talk about the Bills for a second. They 1562 01:12:07,560 --> 01:12:10,640 Speaker 2: got Josh Allen, and they Josh Allen will always give 1563 01:12:10,680 --> 01:12:13,559 Speaker 2: him a chance to compete. But who they have else? 1564 01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:18,160 Speaker 2: I mean, right now, I think Stefan is gone and 1565 01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:20,920 Speaker 2: that that hurts. Stefan Diggs gone as a receiver, and 1566 01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:23,760 Speaker 2: we'll find out this year. Did Stefan Diggs help make 1567 01:12:23,880 --> 01:12:26,600 Speaker 2: Josh Allen or is a vice versa? So I'm not 1568 01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:30,559 Speaker 2: so certain Buffalo's graphing is on the upswing right now. 1569 01:12:30,560 --> 01:12:32,479 Speaker 2: I think it's on the downswing, and I think right 1570 01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:34,719 Speaker 2: now mcdermot's in trouble. 1571 01:12:36,280 --> 01:12:38,040 Speaker 4: I wouldn't say he's in trouble. I would say that 1572 01:12:38,640 --> 01:12:40,960 Speaker 4: they are the crossroads in terms of where this organization 1573 01:12:41,080 --> 01:12:43,920 Speaker 4: is going to go. They're nearing the end of the 1574 01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 4: line or they reached the end of the line with 1575 01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:50,160 Speaker 4: that current iteration of the team, and now they're having 1576 01:12:50,200 --> 01:12:53,360 Speaker 4: to rebuild the team but hoping that Josh Allen can 1577 01:12:53,479 --> 01:12:56,000 Speaker 4: keep them competitive in games and up where maybe they 1578 01:12:56,000 --> 01:12:57,880 Speaker 4: can go back to the playoffs with a team that's 1579 01:12:57,960 --> 01:13:02,800 Speaker 4: not quite solidified as a championship caliber roster. For him 1580 01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:06,000 Speaker 4: to do it, it's going to require more, I would 1581 01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:09,599 Speaker 4: say management from the offense, meaning more twelve personnel, more 1582 01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:13,880 Speaker 4: draining of the clock, more ball control, more of a 1583 01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:16,400 Speaker 4: ball control approach than hey, let's go see how much 1584 01:13:16,400 --> 01:13:19,559 Speaker 4: we can put up. If they do that, they're able 1585 01:13:19,560 --> 01:13:22,400 Speaker 4: to play complimentary football, protect the defense. In those things, 1586 01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:24,240 Speaker 4: they can still continue to win at a high level. 1587 01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:26,960 Speaker 4: Mcdermom's a good coach and what he's done is he's 1588 01:13:27,080 --> 01:13:30,599 Speaker 4: raised the bar in Buffalo and he hasn't been able 1589 01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:33,960 Speaker 4: to kind of match the expectations that some of the 1590 01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:35,600 Speaker 4: people have in terms of this team should go to 1591 01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:37,800 Speaker 4: the super Bowl because of the quarterback that they have 1592 01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:41,240 Speaker 4: in place. He just has to be patient. He can't 1593 01:13:41,560 --> 01:13:43,679 Speaker 4: deviate from what the plan is. He has to trust 1594 01:13:43,680 --> 01:13:44,639 Speaker 4: the plan in the process. 1595 01:13:44,920 --> 01:13:47,360 Speaker 2: All right, Oh see they Okay, let's talk about Nick 1596 01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:50,639 Speaker 2: Ciani and Philadelphia eliminated by Tampa Bay and the players. 1597 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:53,160 Speaker 2: That was bad. That led a lot of air out 1598 01:13:53,200 --> 01:13:54,920 Speaker 2: of the balloon. And what did he do after they 1599 01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:58,240 Speaker 2: lost that game? He fired his offensive and defensive coordinators 1600 01:13:58,439 --> 01:14:01,320 Speaker 2: and they hired what Kellen Moore or who's a pretty 1601 01:14:01,479 --> 01:14:04,680 Speaker 2: accomplished offensive coordinator. Have Vic Fangio, who doesn't get a 1602 01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:07,000 Speaker 2: lot of credit, but he's a tremendous defensive coordinator. You 1603 01:14:07,040 --> 01:14:09,960 Speaker 2: know that, right. But the Eagles lost Jason Kelcey. That's 1604 01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:12,680 Speaker 2: a big loss as well Fletcher Cox, he's gone. I 1605 01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:15,839 Speaker 2: think the Eagles right now they're not see it in trouble. 1606 01:14:15,880 --> 01:14:19,160 Speaker 2: But again, there's gonna be some major questions that during 1607 01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:21,040 Speaker 2: the season with the Philadelphia Eagles. 1608 01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:24,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, There're gonna be some major questions. And that's okay. 1609 01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:27,720 Speaker 4: This is a team that is really, really talented and 1610 01:14:27,800 --> 01:14:29,560 Speaker 4: the questions that they have have little to do with 1611 01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:32,040 Speaker 4: the scheming and more to do with the chemistry and 1612 01:14:32,080 --> 01:14:35,360 Speaker 4: the connectivity of their players, and more importantly, the organizational 1613 01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:38,080 Speaker 4: skills of their coach. Can't he manage and lead like 1614 01:14:38,120 --> 01:14:40,439 Speaker 4: he should as a as a top leader. This is 1615 01:14:40,479 --> 01:14:41,960 Speaker 4: a team that has gone to the Super Bowl, but 1616 01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:44,679 Speaker 4: they need their head coach to do it. The big 1617 01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:47,200 Speaker 4: get for Nick Sirianni is not only killing Moore taking 1618 01:14:47,200 --> 01:14:49,879 Speaker 4: over the offense, but Vic Fangio coming over on defense. 1619 01:14:50,120 --> 01:14:52,320 Speaker 4: And the reason why is because Vic Fangio is an 1620 01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:55,520 Speaker 4: old school coach. The Eagles have been a good team 1621 01:14:55,600 --> 01:14:59,479 Speaker 4: utilizing a new school approach where maybe they don't hit, 1622 01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:02,120 Speaker 4: maybe they're practices aren't his physical, They're not doing the 1623 01:15:02,200 --> 01:15:04,960 Speaker 4: kind of rolling, the running, or the old school stuff 1624 01:15:05,320 --> 01:15:08,360 Speaker 4: that has traditionally been a part of how you build 1625 01:15:08,400 --> 01:15:10,599 Speaker 4: your team. Well, Vic Fangiel is gonna make them get 1626 01:15:10,640 --> 01:15:12,519 Speaker 4: back to that. It's gonna make them have some more reps. 1627 01:15:12,560 --> 01:15:15,120 Speaker 4: He's gonna make them work a little harder, particularly on defense, 1628 01:15:15,439 --> 01:15:17,840 Speaker 4: to get on track. If that defense gets back to 1629 01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:20,719 Speaker 4: just being a decent team, much less than an elite unit, 1630 01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:23,120 Speaker 4: the Eagles gonna make noise and they have a chance 1631 01:15:23,120 --> 01:15:25,759 Speaker 4: to make noise and the bounce back from Jalen Hurts 1632 01:15:25,800 --> 01:15:28,559 Speaker 4: didn't finish the way that he wanted to, didn't play 1633 01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:30,599 Speaker 4: at the level that he played at after getting paid. 1634 01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:33,360 Speaker 4: I think he's gonna be determined to prove people then 1635 01:15:33,360 --> 01:15:36,960 Speaker 4: they sayers, the skeptics, the critics, prove them wrong. After 1636 01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:38,599 Speaker 4: having a sub part year for himself. 1637 01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:40,840 Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought defense because in Miami with the 1638 01:15:40,880 --> 01:15:44,200 Speaker 2: Miami Doblins, Mike McDaniel, that considered him the offensive wizard. 1639 01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 2: But now he's on his third defensive coordinator in three years. 1640 01:15:47,240 --> 01:15:50,120 Speaker 2: So they got some problems there in Miami with the defense, 1641 01:15:50,160 --> 01:15:52,080 Speaker 2: and that's gonna be a major problem. We'll see what 1642 01:15:52,120 --> 01:15:54,360 Speaker 2: happens to there with Miami, So McDaniel could be in 1643 01:15:54,360 --> 01:15:57,800 Speaker 2: trouble and rolling along to your team, Jacksonville, Doug Peterson, 1644 01:15:58,160 --> 01:16:00,439 Speaker 2: he gave them stability, He's no doubt about that. After 1645 01:16:00,520 --> 01:16:04,799 Speaker 2: Urban Maya got their acts. But last year they started 1646 01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:06,720 Speaker 2: a maybe mistake. I think they were eight and three 1647 01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:09,480 Speaker 2: to stop and they finished one and five. That's a problem. 1648 01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:12,800 Speaker 4: It's a problem, and it's a problem. Everyone's on higher 1649 01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:15,680 Speaker 4: lot around the organization in the building. They know they 1650 01:16:15,680 --> 01:16:17,400 Speaker 4: got to perform better. They know they have to get 1651 01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:19,640 Speaker 4: to the playoffs and find a way to make it 1652 01:16:19,720 --> 01:16:22,759 Speaker 4: right in terms of make amends for what took place 1653 01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:25,439 Speaker 4: last year. The way that they've done that is they 1654 01:16:25,479 --> 01:16:27,560 Speaker 4: wanted to make sure that one of the chemistry in 1655 01:16:27,600 --> 01:16:30,080 Speaker 4: the locker room is on point. They want to make 1656 01:16:30,120 --> 01:16:32,400 Speaker 4: sure that the guys that are there, the core guys 1657 01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:37,519 Speaker 4: they pay them. Trevor Lawrence, Josh Einz, Allen Tyson, Campbell 1658 01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:40,280 Speaker 4: all got paid. They can continue to make sure that 1659 01:16:40,320 --> 01:16:43,599 Speaker 4: they pay their core guys to keep them around. They 1660 01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:46,880 Speaker 4: brought in veterans from winning programs to help them go 1661 01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:50,160 Speaker 4: to the next level. Eric Armstead, Mitch Morris, Ron Darby, 1662 01:16:50,560 --> 01:16:53,600 Speaker 4: those guys coming over to look bring that winning pedigree, 1663 01:16:53,640 --> 01:16:57,080 Speaker 4: that experience helping this team play in those I will say, 1664 01:16:57,120 --> 01:17:00,439 Speaker 4: those big money, those big games, those must win games 1665 01:17:00,479 --> 01:17:02,400 Speaker 4: down the stretch. They need some guys who have some 1666 01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:06,320 Speaker 4: experience and the expertise that they can share to help 1667 01:17:06,400 --> 01:17:09,120 Speaker 4: them win those games. And then, finally, like man putting 1668 01:17:09,120 --> 01:17:12,120 Speaker 4: a lot on number sixteen, Trevor Lawrence. He was paid 1669 01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:15,000 Speaker 4: in the offseason. There's expectation that he's gonna play at 1670 01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:17,320 Speaker 4: a top ten level. Maybe top five level. He has 1671 01:17:17,360 --> 01:17:20,200 Speaker 4: to perform and now that he has the bag, he 1672 01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:23,320 Speaker 4: has everything. He should be comfortable. Now it's on him 1673 01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:25,479 Speaker 4: to take his game to the next level. They did 1674 01:17:25,479 --> 01:17:28,599 Speaker 4: a really good job of kind of rearranging the furniture 1675 01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:30,559 Speaker 4: in the wide receiver room to give him the kind 1676 01:17:30,560 --> 01:17:34,160 Speaker 4: of weapons that suit his skill set. But really, at 1677 01:17:34,160 --> 01:17:35,639 Speaker 4: the end of the day, when he gets the ball 1678 01:17:35,640 --> 01:17:37,599 Speaker 4: and they hand the ball at number sixteen, he has 1679 01:17:37,600 --> 01:17:39,240 Speaker 4: to find a way to win by enemies. 1680 01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:42,559 Speaker 2: Necessary sounds great.

And to 1794 01:22:35,520 --> 01:22:37,920 Speaker 2: be honest, with you, I like the Summer Olympics better 1795 01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:38,960 Speaker 2: than the Winter Olympics. 1796 01:22:39,200 --> 01:22:41,799 Speaker 4: I am like you, I like the summer Summer Olympics 1797 01:22:41,800 --> 01:22:44,400 Speaker 4: better than the Winter Olympics. I'm part of the track 1798 01:22:44,600 --> 01:22:48,360 Speaker 4: in basketball obviously, more recently have started paying attention to 1799 01:22:48,520 --> 01:22:53,080 Speaker 4: gymnastics after watching the Simone Boos story on Netflix. That's 1800 01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:54,840 Speaker 4: kind of got me captivated, so I check. 1801 01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:57,280 Speaker 2: I had no idea she was adopted. I watched that too. 1802 01:22:57,400 --> 01:22:59,840 Speaker 4: Yeah that's crazy, Like yeah, like that that was that 1803 01:23:00,120 --> 01:23:02,599 Speaker 4: was a surprise of revelation for me in watching that, 1804 01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:05,479 Speaker 4: and then I'm not gonna lie. The water polo has 1805 01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:08,000 Speaker 4: been something that I'm still trying to figure out. Like 1806 01:23:08,360 --> 01:23:10,599 Speaker 4: I still don't understand how they're able to do what 1807 01:23:10,640 --> 01:23:12,800 Speaker 4: they do in the water without being able to stand 1808 01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:14,920 Speaker 4: or touch the bottom. It's kind of crazy to me. 1809 01:23:15,120 --> 01:23:18,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I watched the Decrease team play the US 1810 01:23:19,000 --> 01:23:21,040 Speaker 2: just at the US being like fifteenth to five something 1811 01:23:21,080 --> 01:23:25,639 Speaker 2: like that, and honestly, they had the camera underwater and 1812 01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:28,040 Speaker 2: like some of these women were like holding them on 1813 01:23:28,160 --> 01:23:31,280 Speaker 2: the water. I mean, really and truly, I mean I 1814 01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:34,519 Speaker 2: don't understand how you set up plays in water polo. 1815 01:23:34,560 --> 01:23:35,760 Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, I don't understand how you 1816 01:23:35,800 --> 01:23:38,360 Speaker 2: set up places in rugby. You just run and you 1817 01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:41,040 Speaker 2: kick and throw whatever you gotta do, and you beat 1818 01:23:41,040 --> 01:23:43,720 Speaker 2: the living heck out of your opponent. But I don't 1819 01:23:43,760 --> 01:23:46,519 Speaker 2: understand in a coaching scenario, how do you set up 1820 01:23:46,520 --> 01:23:49,240 Speaker 2: a play in water polo. I mean you come in there, 1821 01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:52,040 Speaker 2: you kind of swim around, you look for an open shot, 1822 01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:54,280 Speaker 2: you're fake, you throw it and you try to hopefully 1823 01:23:54,280 --> 01:23:56,680 Speaker 2: get it past the goalkeeper. That's what you do. I mean, 1824 01:23:56,800 --> 01:23:57,200 Speaker 2: that's it. 1825 01:23:58,120 --> 01:24:00,519 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean you do some of those things. To me, 1826 01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:02,400 Speaker 4: it reminds me a lot like soccer in terms of 1827 01:24:02,439 --> 01:24:04,960 Speaker 4: some of the plays. Rugby was fascinating and have an 1828 01:24:04,960 --> 01:24:07,439 Speaker 4: opportunity to watch that for a little bit. You mentioned 1829 01:24:07,439 --> 01:24:09,759 Speaker 4: it early, Fiji going down to France. 1830 01:24:10,280 --> 01:24:12,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're the defunding goal of four years ago 1831 01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:13,760 Speaker 2: Fiji won the gold. 1832 01:24:14,240 --> 01:24:16,719 Speaker 4: Yeah. I think maybe they back to back defending camps 1833 01:24:16,720 --> 01:24:19,800 Speaker 4: and then they go down. But uh, that sport is fascinating, 1834 01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:22,959 Speaker 4: very physical, a lot like football, a lot of options 1835 01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:26,240 Speaker 4: and people running around, but great appreciation for what we saw. 1836 01:24:26,280 --> 01:24:28,519 Speaker 4: I think that's the thing about the Olympics. It gives 1837 01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:31,280 Speaker 4: an opportunity to appreciate sports that you normally wouldn't follow 1838 01:24:31,439 --> 01:24:33,280 Speaker 4: or that you know, they kind of off the grid, 1839 01:24:33,439 --> 01:24:35,479 Speaker 4: off the radar for you. But now you get a 1840 01:24:35,560 --> 01:24:37,280 Speaker 4: chance to see him and watch them because they're on 1841 01:24:37,400 --> 01:24:40,240 Speaker 4: every platform, in every outlet and you can see everything. 1842 01:24:41,000 --> 01:24:43,240 Speaker 2: And more than that, I think it's just more than sports. 1843 01:24:43,320 --> 01:24:45,719 Speaker 2: But they got the synchronized swimming. I'm not so certain 1844 01:24:45,760 --> 01:24:48,680 Speaker 2: that's a sport. They got surfing. I mean, you name it, 1845 01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:50,840 Speaker 2: they got it. I mean, I guarantee you. But the 1846 01:24:50,880 --> 01:24:54,680 Speaker 2: next Olympics still have cornhole? Really cornhole will pick? 1847 01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:57,840 Speaker 4: Why not? Why not? Why not yelling hole? You have 1848 01:24:57,880 --> 01:24:59,519 Speaker 4: something against cornhole? You don't like cornhole? 1849 01:24:59,600 --> 01:25:01,559 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, not at all. But I will 1850 01:25:01,600 --> 01:25:04,760 Speaker 2: say this, and it kind of is a question that 1851 01:25:04,840 --> 01:25:08,080 Speaker 2: keeps on revolving in my head. I don't understand why 1852 01:25:08,120 --> 01:25:10,719 Speaker 2: countries can go to war and then when the Olympics 1853 01:25:10,800 --> 01:25:14,080 Speaker 2: cover everybody's hand in hand playing and competing one another. 1854 01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:16,519 Speaker 2: I think the Olympics are beautiful. But then in the 1855 01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:18,880 Speaker 2: Olympics are over that this hate and this war. It 1856 01:25:19,040 --> 01:25:21,639 Speaker 2: just it doesn't make any sense to me really, but 1857 01:25:21,920 --> 01:25:24,160 Speaker 2: that's the way it is, right, Nah. 1858 01:25:24,240 --> 01:25:25,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, it is one of those things like in terms 1859 01:25:25,840 --> 01:25:29,000 Speaker 4: of everything being divided, but then sports competition can bring 1860 01:25:29,080 --> 01:25:31,719 Speaker 4: everybody together. So it's all those things that you hope 1861 01:25:32,120 --> 01:25:34,519 Speaker 4: on a bigger scale that people would take lessons from that. 1862 01:25:34,680 --> 01:25:37,519 Speaker 4: But we'll see, we'll see if people can kind of 1863 01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:39,800 Speaker 4: understand the meaning behind some of the themes and the 1864 01:25:39,880 --> 01:25:41,400 Speaker 4: narratives around the Olympic Games. 1865 01:25:41,640 --> 01:25:43,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, I was a little worried. I was 1866 01:25:43,200 --> 01:25:47,000 Speaker 2: a little concerned that our guy from Kansas City did 1867 01:25:47,040 --> 01:25:49,639 Speaker 2: not come in yet today. But here he is. Steve 1868 01:25:49,640 --> 01:25:52,200 Speaker 2: from Kansas City wants to talk to Bucket Brooks. Hello, Steve, 1869 01:25:52,240 --> 01:25:52,800 Speaker 2: what's going on? 1870 01:25:53,600 --> 01:25:53,800 Speaker 6: Oh? 1871 01:25:53,960 --> 01:25:57,479 Speaker 10: Man, I'm here. I was watching South Sudan versus Puerto 1872 01:25:57,520 --> 01:25:58,679 Speaker 10: Rico at four am. 1873 01:25:58,800 --> 01:26:02,120 Speaker 5: Man, this this this. 1874 01:26:01,840 --> 01:26:04,639 Speaker 10: This basketball thing. Man, it's on all day. I've been 1875 01:26:04,760 --> 01:26:08,160 Speaker 10: I've been enjoying it quite a bit. But I tell 1876 01:26:08,200 --> 01:26:10,559 Speaker 10: you what, I think we're in deep, deep trouble against 1877 01:26:10,600 --> 01:26:13,320 Speaker 10: Serbia in about a couple of hours. I just don't 1878 01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:16,759 Speaker 10: I don't have a good feeling about this at all. 1879 01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:20,439 Speaker 10: Watching I've watched the other teams and it looks like. 1880 01:26:22,000 --> 01:26:24,080 Speaker 2: Today too. Francis good. 1881 01:26:25,160 --> 01:26:28,160 Speaker 10: It seems to me that what they're doing is they're 1882 01:26:28,600 --> 01:26:31,679 Speaker 10: they're taking our weakness, which is big man and. 1883 01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:35,800 Speaker 5: They're loading it. They're loading up against against our weakness 1884 01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:38,360 Speaker 5: and and it's going to be I mean, we saw 1885 01:26:38,479 --> 01:26:42,400 Speaker 5: in the exhibition with Sasudan and there very talented players. 1886 01:26:43,080 --> 01:26:47,240 Speaker 10: They're big, especially but Joel Embiid and time. 1887 01:26:47,760 --> 01:26:51,240 Speaker 2: Why is Joel Embiid starting with Lebron They both should 1888 01:26:51,240 --> 01:26:53,000 Speaker 2: not be playing at the same time, and the one 1889 01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 2: who shouldn't be playing is Joel Embiid. Give them a 1890 01:26:55,360 --> 01:26:57,040 Speaker 2: ticket to cup back to the States. 1891 01:26:57,560 --> 01:27:00,640 Speaker 10: It gets it gets worse because both Anthony Davis and 1892 01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:04,680 Speaker 10: Joe Llenbiid are supposedly ill after the ceremony where it 1893 01:27:04,720 --> 01:27:07,479 Speaker 10: was cold and rain the opening ceremony was cold and rainy, 1894 01:27:07,600 --> 01:27:10,519 Speaker 10: So we I don't know what man out of bio 1895 01:27:10,680 --> 01:27:13,200 Speaker 10: is our center now, I don't know, but this is 1896 01:27:13,920 --> 01:27:18,120 Speaker 10: the Serbia big Man may have like fifty points in 1897 01:27:18,120 --> 01:27:21,720 Speaker 10: this game. I'm not I'm not saying that that this 1898 01:27:21,920 --> 01:27:24,439 Speaker 10: is intel that you should been on or anything, but 1899 01:27:24,479 --> 01:27:29,120 Speaker 10: listen for the USA perspective. We have got to get 1900 01:27:29,520 --> 01:27:32,519 Speaker 10: We have got to get some guys, younger guys that 1901 01:27:32,560 --> 01:27:35,679 Speaker 10: are that are stronger. You know, we had a forty 1902 01:27:35,760 --> 01:27:39,120 Speaker 10: year old man dailing as that of exhibition. I mean 1903 01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:42,439 Speaker 10: it's time for the generations to change. I mean it's great, 1904 01:27:42,760 --> 01:27:44,880 Speaker 10: it's a great time a minute. 1905 01:27:45,080 --> 01:27:47,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, forget about the age. But Lebron right now is 1906 01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:49,639 Speaker 2: the best player in that team and they know it, 1907 01:27:49,760 --> 01:27:52,880 Speaker 2: right Buck, I mean, Lebron James is the man and 1908 01:27:52,920 --> 01:27:55,400 Speaker 2: if they're gonna win, they're gonna put it on his shoulder. 1909 01:27:55,720 --> 01:27:57,080 Speaker 2: He's the guy. 1910 01:27:58,080 --> 01:28:00,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean he continues to be the guy. He look, 1911 01:28:00,960 --> 01:28:07,880 Speaker 4: he's a marvel. Yeah, I agree, he's the best player. 1912 01:28:07,880 --> 01:28:10,200 Speaker 2: Right, Steve, don't worry about it, go back and watch it. 1913 01:28:10,240 --> 01:28:14,479 Speaker 2: Let's let's continue, all right. Because he's worried. I'm not worried. 1914 01:28:14,479 --> 01:28:16,400 Speaker 2: I think the US if A will win, they'll win 1915 01:28:16,439 --> 01:28:19,000 Speaker 2: the goal and they will and honestly, if they don't, 1916 01:28:19,240 --> 01:28:22,080 Speaker 2: there are a lot of pressure on Steve Kerr. I mean, honestly, 1917 01:28:22,120 --> 01:28:24,479 Speaker 2: he came out the other day chastising the team they 1918 01:28:24,560 --> 01:28:27,160 Speaker 2: got to play more intensity. Come on, you're the coach, 1919 01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:29,200 Speaker 2: you know, don't tell me they got to play with 1920 01:28:29,200 --> 01:28:31,880 Speaker 2: more Tell them. I don't want to hear that from 1921 01:28:31,880 --> 01:28:34,400 Speaker 2: a coach, right, I mean, I'm not saying he's not 1922 01:28:34,439 --> 01:28:37,000 Speaker 2: the right guy, but still, if they don't win, it's 1923 01:28:37,040 --> 01:28:38,960 Speaker 2: gonna be all on him, They really will. 1924 01:28:39,600 --> 01:28:41,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, it will be on him because there there'd be 1925 01:28:41,240 --> 01:28:44,120 Speaker 4: some questions like obviously the Jalen Brown thing tould come up, 1926 01:28:44,720 --> 01:28:48,559 Speaker 4: some of the rotation things will come up, just how 1927 01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:51,599 Speaker 4: he approached it, the fact that they struggled and maybe 1928 01:28:51,600 --> 01:28:55,479 Speaker 4: they were not prepared for South Sudan and some of 1929 01:28:55,520 --> 01:28:57,920 Speaker 4: the other teams. Yeah, like, there would definitely be some 1930 01:28:58,040 --> 01:28:59,960 Speaker 4: questions that come up that he'll have to answer. 1931 01:29:00,600 --> 01:29:02,680 Speaker 2: And I never was a big Steve Kurr fan when 1932 01:29:02,720 --> 01:29:05,200 Speaker 2: he several years ago agreed to coach the New York 1933 01:29:05,280 --> 01:29:07,240 Speaker 2: Knicks and backed out at the eleventh hour to go 1934 01:29:07,320 --> 01:29:10,320 Speaker 2: to Golden State. You know, that's a very similar situation 1935 01:29:10,400 --> 01:29:13,559 Speaker 2: like when Kevin Durant jumps Oklahoma City to go to 1936 01:29:13,560 --> 01:29:15,400 Speaker 2: Golden State to get a ring. I mean, come on, 1937 01:29:15,560 --> 01:29:17,639 Speaker 2: you made a commitment. You made a commitment to coach 1938 01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:19,800 Speaker 2: the Knicks. Stay with the Knicks, all right, But they 1939 01:29:19,840 --> 01:29:21,720 Speaker 2: got coach Tis Tibbs has done a good job and 1940 01:29:21,720 --> 01:29:23,960 Speaker 2: they gave him a new contract. So he's done a 1941 01:29:24,040 --> 01:29:25,600 Speaker 2: real good job with the New York Knicks. So we 1942 01:29:25,680 --> 01:29:28,880 Speaker 2: got TIBs there, you go. Now, let's talk about New York, right. 1943 01:29:29,040 --> 01:29:30,599 Speaker 2: Don't you think Timms did a good job. I think 1944 01:29:30,600 --> 01:29:31,160 Speaker 2: he did. Did. 1945 01:29:31,200 --> 01:29:32,760 Speaker 4: I was trying to figure out why you're mad at Tibbs. 1946 01:29:32,760 --> 01:29:34,360 Speaker 2: You don't like to No, I love Tibbs. I do 1947 01:29:34,640 --> 01:29:37,200 Speaker 2: a good defensive coach too. But let's stick with New 1948 01:29:37,240 --> 01:29:39,679 Speaker 2: York Sports. Was said, let's talk about Aaron Rodgers. Aaron 1949 01:29:39,720 --> 01:29:41,719 Speaker 2: Rodgers came out the other day at a news conference 1950 01:29:41,760 --> 01:29:44,840 Speaker 2: and he said a training camp that the current squad 1951 01:29:44,880 --> 01:29:47,920 Speaker 2: that he has has Super Bowl aspirations that perhaps, you know, 1952 01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:50,479 Speaker 2: if he's healthy, they got top five defense. I think 1953 01:29:50,479 --> 01:29:53,160 Speaker 2: they could. But he says the beauties that every single 1954 01:29:53,240 --> 01:29:56,280 Speaker 2: year get this this eight to twelve teams, eight to 1955 01:29:56,320 --> 01:29:58,000 Speaker 2: twelve teams that could actually do and go to the 1956 01:29:58,000 --> 01:30:00,200 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. And he says he's one of twelve. Don't 1957 01:30:00,240 --> 01:30:02,160 Speaker 2: think so. And if you don't believe me, let's take 1958 01:30:02,160 --> 01:30:03,960 Speaker 2: a listen. Go ahead, Aaron, let me hear it from 1959 01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:04,479 Speaker 2: your mouth. 1960 01:30:05,280 --> 01:30:06,799 Speaker 4: It has to be the goal. I mean, the beauty 1961 01:30:06,920 --> 01:30:10,719 Speaker 4: is every single year there's eight to twelve teams, maybe 1962 01:30:10,960 --> 01:30:13,280 Speaker 4: probably less, but eight to twelve teams that could actually 1963 01:30:13,280 --> 01:30:16,160 Speaker 4: do it. And we're one of those eight to twelve. 1964 01:30:16,920 --> 01:30:19,880 Speaker 2: Wait a minute, I defer to Bucket Brooks, who's the 1965 01:30:19,920 --> 01:30:22,680 Speaker 2: football man here? Not Aaron Rodgers. Are there eight to 1966 01:30:22,760 --> 01:30:25,679 Speaker 2: twelve teams honestly going into this season that could really 1967 01:30:25,760 --> 01:30:27,600 Speaker 2: vie for the Super Bowl? I don't think so. 1968 01:30:28,640 --> 01:30:30,960 Speaker 4: No, I actually agree with him. Everybody's not a super 1969 01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:33,479 Speaker 4: Bowl team. I think it's only a handful of teams 1970 01:30:33,479 --> 01:30:35,879 Speaker 4: to have legitimate opportunities to go to the super Bowl, 1971 01:30:36,120 --> 01:30:39,679 Speaker 4: and those top eight, maybe the top twelve, but normally 1972 01:30:39,680 --> 01:30:42,080 Speaker 4: it's eight that really have the pieces in place to 1973 01:30:42,080 --> 01:30:44,760 Speaker 4: be able to get it done. They are one of 1974 01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:46,479 Speaker 4: the teams. You know, they were in my grade eight. 1975 01:30:46,560 --> 01:30:49,000 Speaker 4: We talked about the championship window and a lot of 1976 01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:52,160 Speaker 4: it hinges, not even necessarily on Aaron Rodgers, because I 1977 01:30:52,160 --> 01:30:55,280 Speaker 4: think they're good enough to buy for it without him 1978 01:30:55,280 --> 01:30:58,280 Speaker 4: playing at MVP level. If he just is solid and 1979 01:30:58,360 --> 01:31:02,280 Speaker 4: comes back, and they play well on defense, and Breezehall 1980 01:31:02,360 --> 01:31:05,640 Speaker 4: and Garrett Wilson are big time contributors, this team is 1981 01:31:05,680 --> 01:31:07,200 Speaker 4: good enough to be able to get it done. The 1982 01:31:07,240 --> 01:31:10,280 Speaker 4: AFC East is wide open. They can win the division. 1983 01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:11,960 Speaker 4: They win the division, they put some one step closer 1984 01:31:12,000 --> 01:31:13,960 Speaker 4: to being able to get to the Final four. So 1985 01:31:14,720 --> 01:31:17,479 Speaker 4: I think it is doable. It's just a matter of 1986 01:31:17,840 --> 01:31:21,200 Speaker 4: is Robert Salah has he grown enough as a head 1987 01:31:21,240 --> 01:31:23,880 Speaker 4: coach to be able to lead this team to that level. 1988 01:31:24,120 --> 01:31:25,960 Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought that up, because we talked about 1989 01:31:25,960 --> 01:31:28,040 Speaker 2: coaches on the hot seat. I wouldn't even mention his name. 1990 01:31:28,040 --> 01:31:30,320 Speaker 2: I gotta believe he is, don't you think. 1991 01:31:30,680 --> 01:31:32,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, he has to be in that com I mean 1992 01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:34,400 Speaker 4: he has to be on the hot seat. I mean 1993 01:31:34,439 --> 01:31:37,320 Speaker 4: they've been very very patient with Robert sala As. He's 1994 01:31:37,320 --> 01:31:38,600 Speaker 4: trying to work out and learn how to be a 1995 01:31:38,640 --> 01:31:41,080 Speaker 4: head coach and those things. But at some point the 1996 01:31:42,479 --> 01:31:45,240 Speaker 4: results have to show up, and the results haven't shown 1997 01:31:45,320 --> 01:31:48,160 Speaker 4: up today. They need to win. They need to win. 1998 01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:50,120 Speaker 4: There needs to be an urgency about what they're doing. 1999 01:31:50,160 --> 01:31:52,040 Speaker 4: They got to find a way to get this done. 2000 01:31:52,240 --> 01:31:55,720 Speaker 2: Okay. Aaron Rodgers says, eight to twelve teams. I'm going 2001 01:31:55,800 --> 01:31:57,559 Speaker 2: to give you eight teams right now, and you tell 2002 01:31:57,600 --> 01:31:59,040 Speaker 2: me if I'm in the ballpark. Was you know what? 2003 01:31:59,120 --> 01:32:01,320 Speaker 2: When he initially said that, I say, you know what, 2004 01:32:01,360 --> 01:32:03,519 Speaker 2: I think he's crazy, but no what he might be right. 2005 01:32:03,880 --> 01:32:06,439 Speaker 2: He might be right. Okay, let's put the Jets in there, 2006 01:32:06,680 --> 01:32:08,360 Speaker 2: and you say the Jets. I think the Jets with 2007 01:32:08,400 --> 01:32:11,240 Speaker 2: their defense, if he stays healthy, their defense could carry 2008 01:32:11,280 --> 01:32:13,559 Speaker 2: them and offensively, I think they could get it done. 2009 01:32:13,600 --> 01:32:16,880 Speaker 2: You agree, right, they could do that, all right? So 2010 01:32:16,960 --> 01:32:19,559 Speaker 2: these are the teams that I have. The Jets are one, 2011 01:32:20,320 --> 01:32:27,840 Speaker 2: Baltimore's two, all right, Cleveland Brown's three, Dallas Cowboys four, 2012 01:32:28,080 --> 01:32:32,080 Speaker 2: Eagles five, forty nine Ers six, and the Lions is seven. 2013 01:32:32,600 --> 01:32:34,439 Speaker 2: All right? You want to put Buffalo win there to 2014 01:32:34,439 --> 01:32:34,840 Speaker 2: make them. 2015 01:32:34,760 --> 01:32:38,879 Speaker 4: Eight, don't. I don't see Buffalo as a super Bowl. 2016 01:32:38,680 --> 01:32:41,559 Speaker 2: Team, all right? Do you We've got didn't even put 2017 01:32:41,600 --> 01:32:44,960 Speaker 2: Kansas City in there. I'm sorry, Kansas City. Kansas City 2018 01:32:45,040 --> 01:32:45,280 Speaker 2: is eight. 2019 01:32:45,560 --> 01:32:46,880 Speaker 4: Kansas City? 2020 01:32:47,000 --> 01:32:49,760 Speaker 2: What about not the Rams? You got the Rams in there? 2021 01:32:49,840 --> 01:32:52,120 Speaker 4: No Rams in there? 2022 01:32:52,120 --> 01:32:56,120 Speaker 2: Okay, So he's right, there are package maybe the packers. 2023 01:32:55,720 --> 01:32:58,160 Speaker 4: Packers, but like but like in saying that, he's not 2024 01:32:58,200 --> 01:33:01,240 Speaker 4: seeing that there's some that can emerge. But he's right 2025 01:33:01,280 --> 01:33:06,439 Speaker 4: about eight, eight to twelve. There's some great mattering there. 2026 01:33:06,479 --> 01:33:09,919 Speaker 4: Because you talk about Cleveland, you could talk about the Rams. 2027 01:33:10,040 --> 01:33:11,639 Speaker 4: I mean, we can talk about some of those teams 2028 01:33:11,640 --> 01:33:14,040 Speaker 4: that could kind of vault up into that discussion. So 2029 01:33:14,120 --> 01:33:15,960 Speaker 4: he's not wrong when he says. 2030 01:33:15,680 --> 01:33:18,400 Speaker 2: That, Okay, let's talk about that. Jess for cistick with them. 2031 01:33:18,439 --> 01:33:21,679 Speaker 2: Because if he's healthy with their defense, and the defense 2032 01:33:21,760 --> 01:33:23,560 Speaker 2: might be one of the best international football league, do 2033 01:33:23,560 --> 01:33:26,800 Speaker 2: you agree. I think they might be wide receivers, that's 2034 01:33:26,800 --> 01:33:30,439 Speaker 2: a question. They got a rookie, but in McCauley, he's 2035 01:33:30,479 --> 01:33:31,200 Speaker 2: got to be the guy. 2036 01:33:31,560 --> 01:33:31,840 Speaker 4: I think. 2037 01:33:31,840 --> 01:33:35,559 Speaker 2: With Mike Williams, yeah, I mean and Mike Williams. Other 2038 01:33:35,640 --> 01:33:37,400 Speaker 2: than that, I mean, we don't know about these guys. 2039 01:33:37,439 --> 01:33:38,200 Speaker 2: They're not tested. 2040 01:33:39,400 --> 01:33:42,320 Speaker 4: No, I mean, Mike Williams is solid, Gary Wilson is good. 2041 01:33:42,320 --> 01:33:44,639 Speaker 4: Mike Williams coming off to injury, so you wonder what 2042 01:33:44,920 --> 01:33:46,760 Speaker 4: you can get in him. You got older guys that 2043 01:33:46,840 --> 01:33:50,400 Speaker 4: are question marks on the outside, Morgan Moses and Tyron 2044 01:33:50,439 --> 01:33:55,920 Speaker 4: Smith and those guys. But you're still willing to say 2045 01:33:55,920 --> 01:33:58,800 Speaker 4: that man. Defensively, all those guys are in the blue. 2046 01:33:58,880 --> 01:34:05,160 Speaker 4: Quinn Williams, Quincy Wiylliams, Sauce Gardner, elite players. They have 2047 01:34:05,280 --> 01:34:08,360 Speaker 4: players that can win and can get this thing done 2048 01:34:08,479 --> 01:34:10,559 Speaker 4: at a high level. It's just a matter how well 2049 01:34:11,040 --> 01:34:13,360 Speaker 4: they play and how well does Aaron Rodgers get this 2050 01:34:13,479 --> 01:34:16,439 Speaker 4: offense to play, because the weakness would be the offense, 2051 01:34:16,479 --> 01:34:20,280 Speaker 4: and particularly like Kennathaniel Hackett, put this offense in a 2052 01:34:20,320 --> 01:34:22,400 Speaker 4: situation where they have success. 2053 01:34:22,200 --> 01:34:22,840 Speaker 2: That's okay. 2054 01:34:22,840 --> 01:34:24,519 Speaker 4: Here's the to determine where they do it. 2055 01:34:24,840 --> 01:34:27,600 Speaker 2: They're in the AFC East. I'm going to go on 2056 01:34:27,680 --> 01:34:29,720 Speaker 2: record right now. I don't make a lot of predictions yet, 2057 01:34:29,720 --> 01:34:31,280 Speaker 2: but I'm gonna say right now they're gonna win the 2058 01:34:31,280 --> 01:34:33,880 Speaker 2: AFC East. And I'll say that the Jets will probably 2059 01:34:33,920 --> 01:34:38,120 Speaker 2: win twelve games, followed by the Bills, the Dolphins I 2060 01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:41,280 Speaker 2: put in third, and the Patriots obviously will pick up 2061 01:34:41,320 --> 01:34:44,080 Speaker 2: the rear. Do you like that Jets, Bills, Dolphins, and 2062 01:34:44,120 --> 01:34:45,799 Speaker 2: Patriots in the AFC East. 2063 01:34:47,200 --> 01:34:50,559 Speaker 4: Jets, Bills, Wow, Dolphins third? 2064 01:34:50,800 --> 01:34:54,360 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Okay, yeah, I don't like the Dolphins. Dolphins. 2065 01:34:54,520 --> 01:34:55,920 Speaker 4: Get a lot of love for the Bills. Get a 2066 01:34:55,960 --> 01:34:58,080 Speaker 4: lot of love and faith for the Bills. I appreciate 2067 01:34:58,120 --> 01:35:00,000 Speaker 4: the conviction. A lot of love and faith for the Bills. 2068 01:35:00,160 --> 01:35:01,880 Speaker 2: Okay. And here's the problem with the Jets if they 2069 01:35:01,880 --> 01:35:04,160 Speaker 2: do have a problem, certainly told about the Aaron Rodgers situation. 2070 01:35:04,560 --> 01:35:06,559 Speaker 2: I look at the schedule, and why do I say 2071 01:35:06,600 --> 01:35:09,320 Speaker 2: that they got six games that are in primetime. I 2072 01:35:09,360 --> 01:35:12,240 Speaker 2: think that's a big deal. I think that football players 2073 01:35:12,479 --> 01:35:16,880 Speaker 2: are creatures of habit. They play one o'clock Eastern on Sundays, 2074 01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:19,720 Speaker 2: and when that things moved around and juggled around, it 2075 01:35:19,760 --> 01:35:22,760 Speaker 2: creates a problem. It creates a problem practice time. It 2076 01:35:22,840 --> 01:35:24,720 Speaker 2: just creates a lot of problems. You were there, You've 2077 01:35:24,720 --> 01:35:26,760 Speaker 2: been there, done that. And they also have a date 2078 01:35:26,880 --> 01:35:29,439 Speaker 2: with the Minnesota Vikings. I think they play that game 2079 01:35:29,439 --> 01:35:32,080 Speaker 2: in Europe. That's a problem too, to travel things like 2080 01:35:32,120 --> 01:35:34,400 Speaker 2: that when you go off the regular schedule. I think 2081 01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:35,120 Speaker 2: that's a problem. 2082 01:35:35,160 --> 01:35:38,360 Speaker 4: Agreed, No, I don't think he's a problem. I think 2083 01:35:38,640 --> 01:35:41,200 Speaker 4: the primetime games are what everyone wants. You want primetime 2084 01:35:41,240 --> 01:35:43,519 Speaker 4: games because you want to be seen. You want to 2085 01:35:43,560 --> 01:35:45,679 Speaker 4: be seen by everybody. You want to have an opportunity 2086 01:35:45,720 --> 01:35:47,120 Speaker 4: to world to see you. That's how you get your 2087 01:35:47,120 --> 01:35:52,160 Speaker 4: Pro Bowl, honors, your accolades in those things. So that 2088 01:35:52,200 --> 01:35:53,920 Speaker 4: part is not a problem. London can be a problem 2089 01:35:53,960 --> 01:35:56,760 Speaker 4: depending on how you how you how you fly over there, 2090 01:35:56,880 --> 01:36:00,760 Speaker 4: when you go, how you handle it those things. But 2091 01:36:01,439 --> 01:36:04,240 Speaker 4: you know, the bigger problem is the execution between the lines. 2092 01:36:04,360 --> 01:36:06,040 Speaker 4: So before we can talk about the other stuff is 2093 01:36:06,080 --> 01:36:09,280 Speaker 4: are they good enough to execute those things between the lines? 2094 01:36:09,280 --> 01:36:12,519 Speaker 4: Do they have enough talent to be able to scare 2095 01:36:12,560 --> 01:36:15,200 Speaker 4: you on the outside? Lost Stefon Diggs didn't replace him, 2096 01:36:15,240 --> 01:36:18,400 Speaker 4: lost Gabe Davis didn't really what they got a hodgepodgy. 2097 01:36:18,439 --> 01:36:23,479 Speaker 4: Guys up there trying out right now. But it's different, different, okay. 2098 01:36:24,000 --> 01:36:25,880 Speaker 2: And you you kind of raised your eyebrows a little 2099 01:36:25,880 --> 01:36:27,880 Speaker 2: bit when I said doblins at third and eight and nine. 2100 01:36:28,520 --> 01:36:32,000 Speaker 2: And I say that why because the late Paul Brown 2101 01:36:32,400 --> 01:36:34,880 Speaker 2: always said the game is a one or lost in 2102 01:36:34,920 --> 01:36:37,439 Speaker 2: the trenches. That's what he said that. It's changed now. 2103 01:36:37,439 --> 01:36:39,880 Speaker 2: It's all about quarterback, I know. But the quarterback to 2104 01:36:39,920 --> 01:36:41,720 Speaker 2: me is only as good as his offensive line that 2105 01:36:41,760 --> 01:36:43,920 Speaker 2: could protect them. All right, And let's see what happened 2106 01:36:43,960 --> 01:36:48,280 Speaker 2: now in Miami. Robert Hunt guard, he's gone, Christian Wilkins 2107 01:36:48,360 --> 01:36:52,080 Speaker 2: defensive tackle, he's gone, Connor Williams center, he's gone. These 2108 01:36:52,080 --> 01:36:55,000 Speaker 2: guys are gone. And I think, you know, it's kind 2109 01:36:55,000 --> 01:36:58,240 Speaker 2: of like a chain. You lose one, it kind of 2110 01:36:58,760 --> 01:37:01,040 Speaker 2: rebounds for the rest of them on that line. The 2111 01:37:01,120 --> 01:37:03,280 Speaker 2: line is like a unit of one. It's like a glove, 2112 01:37:03,640 --> 01:37:06,280 Speaker 2: you know, like dominoes. One goes down, the rest of 2113 01:37:06,320 --> 01:37:08,720 Speaker 2: them go down. I think there's a major problem with 2114 01:37:08,840 --> 01:37:11,680 Speaker 2: the line factor in Miami. That's gonna hurt him. You know, 2115 01:37:11,880 --> 01:37:14,000 Speaker 2: two is great, he's a great quarterback. I think he's 2116 01:37:14,040 --> 01:37:16,280 Speaker 2: a really good quarterback. They sign the big money, but 2117 01:37:16,560 --> 01:37:18,960 Speaker 2: you don't have that line help. You're in trouble and 2118 01:37:19,040 --> 01:37:20,479 Speaker 2: they don't have it in Miami anymore. 2119 01:37:20,640 --> 01:37:22,759 Speaker 4: Gone, No, I mean, I mean they're kind of hollow, 2120 01:37:22,920 --> 01:37:24,559 Speaker 4: you know. I'm saying they're built like a donut. They're 2121 01:37:24,600 --> 01:37:26,719 Speaker 4: really good on the perimeter, but there's holes in the middle, 2122 01:37:27,600 --> 01:37:29,040 Speaker 4: not only in the old line, but you can say 2123 01:37:29,040 --> 01:37:30,599 Speaker 4: on the D line. They got two guys coming off 2124 01:37:30,600 --> 01:37:34,719 Speaker 4: Andrew Jalen Phillips and Bradley Chubb. You're missing Christian Wilkins 2125 01:37:34,760 --> 01:37:37,519 Speaker 4: because you let him walk out the door. Obviously, you 2126 01:37:37,520 --> 01:37:39,599 Speaker 4: can score on anybody, but defensive, we don't know if 2127 01:37:39,600 --> 01:37:42,519 Speaker 4: you're good enough to stop anybody. And Anthony Weaver a 2128 01:37:42,600 --> 01:37:46,439 Speaker 4: new defensive coordinator. Guy comes from the front, not the back. 2129 01:37:47,080 --> 01:37:49,640 Speaker 4: Does he have the ability to tie the pressure with 2130 01:37:49,680 --> 01:37:51,879 Speaker 4: the coverage? That's also gonna be critical. 2131 01:37:52,600 --> 01:37:54,479 Speaker 2: I agree with you there, all right, So we move 2132 01:37:54,520 --> 01:37:57,559 Speaker 2: on because we're gonna take some calls.

I did a little ho work 2173 01:40:00,360 --> 01:40:03,080 Speaker 2: too like you did, not the color coding like you did. 2174 01:40:03,080 --> 01:40:06,559 Speaker 2: But I'm not as smart as you. But only four 2175 01:40:06,640 --> 01:40:10,680 Speaker 2: times in the last twenty five years has a quarterback 2176 01:40:10,800 --> 01:40:13,880 Speaker 2: not won the league's MVP. All right, there have been 2177 01:40:14,080 --> 01:40:17,479 Speaker 2: thirty three Super Bowl MVPs at quarterback, with their next 2178 01:40:17,520 --> 01:40:21,880 Speaker 2: closest position group being wide receivers at eight. All right, 2179 01:40:22,160 --> 01:40:24,200 Speaker 2: And you know as well as I do, quarterbacks get 2180 01:40:24,240 --> 01:40:26,519 Speaker 2: all the attention to get most of the money a 2181 01:40:26,640 --> 01:40:30,200 Speaker 2: team has made up much more than what happens at quarterback, 2182 01:40:30,400 --> 01:40:35,559 Speaker 2: all right? Which non quarterbacks are the MVPs for their 2183 01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:39,080 Speaker 2: respective NFL teams this coming year? All right? So we're 2184 01:40:39,120 --> 01:40:41,759 Speaker 2: gonna do a little quiz. I got my little chart, 2185 01:40:41,800 --> 01:40:43,880 Speaker 2: and you can help me if I'm way off base. 2186 01:40:43,960 --> 01:40:45,880 Speaker 2: Are you ready? I kind of got them going here, 2187 01:40:45,920 --> 01:40:48,720 Speaker 2: maybe at an alphabetical order to keep it fair. So 2188 01:40:48,720 --> 01:40:51,400 Speaker 2: I'm gonna start off with the Arizona Cardinals and my 2189 01:40:51,720 --> 01:40:56,200 Speaker 2: MVP non quarterback MVPs. Are you ready? Mine is their 2190 01:40:56,320 --> 01:40:59,439 Speaker 2: draft pick Marvin Harrison Junior. Because if the Cardinals are 2191 01:40:59,479 --> 01:41:01,880 Speaker 2: gonna make them it all and a lot of people 2192 01:41:01,880 --> 01:41:05,000 Speaker 2: think they will with Kyler Murray maybe coming back being healthy, 2193 01:41:05,160 --> 01:41:06,920 Speaker 2: it's got to be at the offensive side of the ball. 2194 01:41:06,920 --> 01:41:09,160 Speaker 2: With Marvin Irrison Junior, I think he's going to be 2195 01:41:09,240 --> 01:41:09,559 Speaker 2: the guy. 2196 01:41:10,880 --> 01:41:13,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm with you on that. Marvin Edison Junior plays 2197 01:41:13,360 --> 01:41:16,879 Speaker 4: a big role in that I kind of have compared 2198 01:41:16,960 --> 01:41:19,960 Speaker 4: him to Larry Fitzgerald in terms of his potential impact 2199 01:41:20,080 --> 01:41:22,719 Speaker 4: and how he's going to get this team up and going. 2200 01:41:22,760 --> 01:41:24,479 Speaker 4: He's a true number one. He can do all the 2201 01:41:24,520 --> 01:41:27,920 Speaker 4: things that you need. And more funly, he gives Calla 2202 01:41:28,000 --> 01:41:30,559 Speaker 4: Murray a legitimate target to be able to throw two 2203 01:41:30,640 --> 01:41:32,720 Speaker 4: on the perimeter. So for that, yeah, I'm with you 2204 01:41:32,760 --> 01:41:33,320 Speaker 4: on that, Envy. 2205 01:41:33,520 --> 01:41:36,360 Speaker 2: Wow. All right, well one for one, we move along. 2206 01:41:36,400 --> 01:41:36,559 Speaker 1: Now. 2207 01:41:36,600 --> 01:41:38,880 Speaker 2: I guess next will be the Atlanta Falcons, and I 2208 01:41:38,960 --> 01:41:42,479 Speaker 2: think I'm gonna go And this was tough because it's 2209 01:41:42,520 --> 01:41:45,400 Speaker 2: not much to deal with there. I'm gonna go with 2210 01:41:45,479 --> 01:41:48,040 Speaker 2: Drake London, the wide receiver, because he was the leading 2211 01:41:48,080 --> 01:41:51,080 Speaker 2: receiver since he was drafted back in twenty twenty two, 2212 01:41:51,080 --> 01:41:53,680 Speaker 2: and he's drafted eighth overall. And I give him a 2213 01:41:53,680 --> 01:41:56,720 Speaker 2: lot of credit because he was playing with Marcus Mariota, 2214 01:41:56,880 --> 01:41:59,720 Speaker 2: Desmond Ritter, and Taylor Heineke at quarterback. So to be 2215 01:41:59,800 --> 01:42:03,400 Speaker 2: the receiver with even rotating quarterbacks, that's a big deal. 2216 01:42:03,800 --> 01:42:05,840 Speaker 2: He never got a thousand yards, but I still think 2217 01:42:05,840 --> 01:42:10,120 Speaker 2: he might be their MVP, non quarterback MVP Drake Luden. 2218 01:42:11,960 --> 01:42:16,320 Speaker 4: I'm John Robinson running back. John Robinson gets it done. 2219 01:42:16,320 --> 01:42:18,400 Speaker 4: It goes through him. Look for him to be kind 2220 01:42:18,400 --> 01:42:20,840 Speaker 4: of like their version of Sakwon Barkley. A guy that 2221 01:42:20,880 --> 01:42:22,880 Speaker 4: can be a run and receiver can do it all. 2222 01:42:23,439 --> 01:42:25,559 Speaker 4: To me, he has more touches, which gives him an 2223 01:42:25,520 --> 01:42:29,200 Speaker 4: opportunity to have a greater impact on the offense's b 2224 01:42:29,360 --> 01:42:30,439 Speaker 4: John Robinson for me. 2225 01:42:31,320 --> 01:42:33,599 Speaker 2: All right, so I one on one right now going 2226 01:42:33,640 --> 01:42:36,040 Speaker 2: to Bolton out with the Baltimore Ravens, and this is 2227 01:42:36,479 --> 01:42:38,320 Speaker 2: this is kind of like I'm thinking with my heart, 2228 01:42:38,439 --> 01:42:40,120 Speaker 2: not with my head, because I love this guy, I 2229 01:42:40,120 --> 01:42:42,800 Speaker 2: love watching him plays a throwback. I'm going with Derek 2230 01:42:42,840 --> 01:42:45,800 Speaker 2: Henry the running back as the MVP non quarterback. And 2231 01:42:45,840 --> 01:42:47,639 Speaker 2: then one of the reasons being because I think when 2232 01:42:47,680 --> 01:42:49,960 Speaker 2: you look at the Baltimore Ravens, they never had a 2233 01:42:50,040 --> 01:42:52,639 Speaker 2: running back like Derek Henry before. If he's a punishing 2234 01:42:52,720 --> 01:42:58,240 Speaker 2: running back, I'm gonna go with Derek Henry tight end right, 2235 01:42:58,439 --> 01:42:59,040 Speaker 2: the tight end. 2236 01:42:59,200 --> 01:43:01,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, look, Derek Carry is a good one 2237 01:43:01,200 --> 01:43:03,240 Speaker 4: because down the stretch I could see them leaning on him. 2238 01:43:03,240 --> 01:43:06,160 Speaker 4: Mark Andrews to me, ends up being at the MVP 2239 01:43:06,280 --> 01:43:08,400 Speaker 4: because when you look at the numbers with him without him, 2240 01:43:08,400 --> 01:43:10,639 Speaker 4: he does have a great impact on Lamar Jackson. Lamar 2241 01:43:10,720 --> 01:43:12,600 Speaker 4: Jackson likes to work the middle of the field. So 2242 01:43:12,680 --> 01:43:14,160 Speaker 4: let's go with Mark Andrews. 2243 01:43:14,520 --> 01:43:16,800 Speaker 2: All right, Yeah, you know why, You're probably right. I 2244 01:43:17,280 --> 01:43:19,639 Speaker 2: just like Derrick Henry though, and I hope he does well. 2245 01:43:19,840 --> 01:43:21,760 Speaker 2: I really do. I don't think you think they're gonna 2246 01:43:21,760 --> 01:43:23,600 Speaker 2: give it twenty five to thirty carries a game. I 2247 01:43:23,640 --> 01:43:24,000 Speaker 2: don't know. 2248 01:43:25,439 --> 01:43:28,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know. I think, if anything, I think 2249 01:43:28,280 --> 01:43:30,120 Speaker 4: later in the year he may get that early in the year. 2250 01:43:30,120 --> 01:43:34,000 Speaker 2: I think they're preserve them all right now Buffalo Bills, 2251 01:43:34,080 --> 01:43:38,120 Speaker 2: I mean the non quarterback MVP. I think on the go, 2252 01:43:38,160 --> 01:43:42,320 Speaker 2: on the defensive side of the ball, they'll linebacker Terrell Bernard. 2253 01:43:42,920 --> 01:43:46,519 Speaker 2: And why do I say him? He started as a rookie, 2254 01:43:47,040 --> 01:43:49,760 Speaker 2: he led the Bills his second year. He had some 2255 01:43:49,920 --> 01:43:52,479 Speaker 2: like one hundred and forty plus tackles, had a couple 2256 01:43:52,479 --> 01:43:55,960 Speaker 2: of interceptions, a couple of fumble recoveries. I just think 2257 01:43:56,000 --> 01:43:58,439 Speaker 2: that on the defensive we don't talk about much about 2258 01:43:58,439 --> 01:44:00,320 Speaker 2: the defensive start of the ball in Buffalo really, so 2259 01:44:00,320 --> 01:44:02,960 Speaker 2: all about Josh Allen and the loss of Stefan Diggs. 2260 01:44:03,080 --> 01:44:05,559 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Bernard at the linebacker position. 2261 01:44:07,800 --> 01:44:12,640 Speaker 4: Man. That's that's that's interesting. I can go with that, 2262 01:44:12,880 --> 01:44:15,599 Speaker 4: like I'll go sign because they kind of have some 2263 01:44:15,800 --> 01:44:17,720 Speaker 4: non descriptive players. So I'll go. 2264 01:44:17,680 --> 01:44:22,559 Speaker 2: With that, right not there, Okay, Uh, Carolina is really 2265 01:44:22,600 --> 01:44:24,960 Speaker 2: difficult because they're terrible. Let me be just a bad 2266 01:44:25,000 --> 01:44:27,519 Speaker 2: football team. But I may have to go back on 2267 01:44:27,600 --> 01:44:31,680 Speaker 2: defense again. And uh, here's a guy who had one 2268 01:44:31,720 --> 01:44:36,200 Speaker 2: hundred plus tackles last year, the defensive end, Derek Brown. 2269 01:44:36,439 --> 01:44:39,000 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with him. Uh. He was on the 2270 01:44:39,040 --> 01:44:41,519 Speaker 2: Pro Bowl for a bad team. That's a pretty good deal. 2271 01:44:41,600 --> 01:44:44,280 Speaker 2: So I got with Derek Brown on defense with the 2272 01:44:44,320 --> 01:44:45,800 Speaker 2: Carolina Panthers. 2273 01:44:47,080 --> 01:44:50,920 Speaker 4: Who interesting, I'm gonna go offensively. Let's go Deontay Johnson. 2274 01:44:51,040 --> 01:44:54,519 Speaker 4: And Deontay Johnson because he has to look he holds 2275 01:44:54,560 --> 01:44:59,040 Speaker 4: the key to unlocking Bryce Young, number one receiver in Carolina. 2276 01:44:59,080 --> 01:45:00,519 Speaker 4: He has to be able to get open and win 2277 01:45:00,600 --> 01:45:03,120 Speaker 4: consistently gets man coverage. If he does that, Bryce, So 2278 01:45:03,360 --> 01:45:06,160 Speaker 4: Bryce Shon is gonna look like a much different quarterback. 2279 01:45:07,080 --> 01:45:08,920 Speaker 4: I think people forget because we don't talk about Bryce 2280 01:45:08,960 --> 01:45:11,080 Speaker 4: shawp Brycihan was number one overall pick and we have 2281 01:45:11,240 --> 01:45:14,519 Speaker 4: just completely put him out of our community bank. This 2282 01:45:14,560 --> 01:45:16,120 Speaker 4: is the opportunity for us to kind of have a 2283 01:45:16,200 --> 01:45:18,760 Speaker 4: reminder say, oh no, no, I'm here. I'm number one. 2284 01:45:18,840 --> 01:45:21,080 Speaker 4: I was number one for a reason. Deontay Johnson is 2285 01:45:21,080 --> 01:45:22,519 Speaker 4: gonna have to help him show that. 2286 01:45:23,439 --> 01:45:26,280 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm going to tell you this right now. I 2287 01:45:26,360 --> 01:45:29,680 Speaker 2: raise my hand. I admit this. I can't pick an 2288 01:45:29,800 --> 01:45:34,360 Speaker 2: MVP non quarterback on the Chicago Bears. I can't. So 2289 01:45:34,479 --> 01:45:37,080 Speaker 2: I need your help. But I just can't. I look 2290 01:45:37,120 --> 01:45:40,320 Speaker 2: at the roster going up and down. I just cannot 2291 01:45:40,400 --> 01:45:43,720 Speaker 2: decide who to pick. Who might be their MVP on 2292 01:45:43,760 --> 01:45:48,599 Speaker 2: the defensive side of the ball. You got anybody, I'll 2293 01:45:48,600 --> 01:45:50,559 Speaker 2: do one more look at the roster. I knew could 2294 01:45:50,600 --> 01:45:52,840 Speaker 2: you could give me your pick, but I just can't 2295 01:45:52,880 --> 01:45:54,640 Speaker 2: pick of anybody. I just can't. 2296 01:45:55,080 --> 01:45:56,479 Speaker 4: Who are your candidates? Let's talk. 2297 01:45:56,520 --> 01:46:03,200 Speaker 2: Let's talk through Montese the defensive end. Monteset. Yeah, but 2298 01:46:03,960 --> 01:46:06,360 Speaker 2: why one of the reasons I picked him? You know why, 2299 01:46:06,960 --> 01:46:09,599 Speaker 2: he's the highest player on the team, highest paid player. 2300 01:46:09,960 --> 01:46:12,160 Speaker 2: Other than that, I mean, I just and he led 2301 01:46:12,200 --> 01:46:14,800 Speaker 2: the Bears with six sacks. But other than that, I 2302 01:46:14,920 --> 01:46:16,120 Speaker 2: just don't have an MVP. 2303 01:46:17,680 --> 01:46:21,720 Speaker 4: All right, So all right, J Moore, J Moore, I mean, 2304 01:46:21,840 --> 01:46:24,360 Speaker 4: so it's funny because DJ Moore is it is it 2305 01:46:24,479 --> 01:46:27,040 Speaker 4: Keenan Allen. Who are those guys that can do it? No, 2306 01:46:27,160 --> 01:46:29,400 Speaker 4: it probably has to be someone defense. Let's go here, 2307 01:46:29,520 --> 01:46:34,760 Speaker 4: Let's go to Real Edmonds linebacker, Mike linebacker, because the 2308 01:46:35,120 --> 01:46:37,720 Speaker 4: defense has to play at that level almost like they 2309 01:46:37,720 --> 01:46:41,000 Speaker 4: played when Levey Smith was there. Uh And when you 2310 01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:44,960 Speaker 4: think about those linebacker cors, it was er Locker and 2311 01:46:46,040 --> 01:46:49,240 Speaker 4: got Lance Briggs somewhere in the middle controlling it. Well, 2312 01:46:49,720 --> 01:46:51,360 Speaker 4: Teryl Lemons is going to play the role of er 2313 01:46:51,439 --> 01:46:53,360 Speaker 4: Locker and if he does his job controlled in the 2314 01:46:53,360 --> 01:46:55,080 Speaker 4: middle of the field while they're playing that Tampa two, 2315 01:46:55,439 --> 01:46:57,599 Speaker 4: they can be really really good. And ibra Flus got 2316 01:46:57,600 --> 01:47:00,200 Speaker 4: this team up and going last year. So yeah, let's 2317 01:47:00,200 --> 01:47:00,919 Speaker 4: go to the Roumans. 2318 01:47:01,439 --> 01:47:04,519 Speaker 2: All right, We're going to continue this and because I 2319 01:47:04,520 --> 01:47:06,960 Speaker 2: think it's pretty good, because if it's a challenge on that, 2320 01:47:07,000 --> 01:47:09,720 Speaker 2: it's really easy to say the best quarterbacks in the 2321 01:47:09,760 --> 01:47:12,240 Speaker 2: top ten list with quarterbacks and things like that, let's 2322 01:47:12,240 --> 01:47:14,759 Speaker 2: see really who in fact the MVPs are on various teams, 2323 01:47:14,800 --> 01:47:18,519 Speaker 2: and honestly, the Browns, Cowboys and forty nine is they're 2324 01:47:18,520 --> 01:47:21,120 Speaker 2: really easy picks. That's coming up next live for the 2325 01:47:21,160 --> 01:47:24,080 Speaker 2: tiraq dot Com studios. But first Kevin Wirt, He's an 2326 01:47:24,160 --> 01:47:26,000 Speaker 2: MVP right here with the sports well. 2327 01:47:26,040 --> 01:47:29,840 Speaker 8: Simone Bile is certainly the MVP of the women's gymnastics team, 2328 01:47:29,920 --> 01:47:33,200 Speaker 8: not just this Olympics, but basically for her whole career 2329 01:47:33,280 --> 01:47:35,519 Speaker 8: and the greatest gymnast of all time now going to 2330 01:47:35,520 --> 01:47:38,320 Speaker 8: have a chance to add to her legacy. She is 2331 01:47:38,360 --> 01:47:42,840 Speaker 8: officially qualified for the individual all round final in the 2332 01:47:42,840 --> 01:47:47,000 Speaker 8: gymnastics competition. The last all round champion, Sony Lee, has 2333 01:47:47,120 --> 01:47:50,960 Speaker 8: also qualified for the individual finals, so both of them 2334 01:47:51,000 --> 01:47:54,000 Speaker 8: will be representing the United States trying to win gold 2335 01:47:54,040 --> 01:47:57,559 Speaker 8: and as a team the United States qualifying for the 2336 01:47:57,600 --> 01:48:01,240 Speaker 8: all round finals. So the United States women's gymnastics team 2337 01:48:01,320 --> 01:48:05,760 Speaker 8: continuing to impress here in these twenty twenty four Olympics. 2338 01:48:06,200 --> 01:48:10,120 Speaker 8: Big rivalry in the swimming pool between the United States 2339 01:48:10,120 --> 01:48:14,160 Speaker 8: and Australia. The men take gold for the United States 2340 01:48:14,200 --> 01:48:17,200 Speaker 8: in the four by one hundred freestyle relay, Caleb Dreussel 2341 01:48:17,280 --> 01:48:20,479 Speaker 8: anchoring that team as he gives the Americans gold and 2342 01:48:20,520 --> 01:48:24,400 Speaker 8: gets himself his eighth career gold medal that is third 2343 01:48:24,560 --> 01:48:26,320 Speaker 8: all time. But he's got a quiet way to go 2344 01:48:26,360 --> 01:48:29,120 Speaker 8: to catch up to Michael Phelps, as he's got twenty three, 2345 01:48:29,200 --> 01:48:31,719 Speaker 8: and then a few guys tied at nine in second place, 2346 01:48:31,720 --> 01:48:35,320 Speaker 8: and then uh Dressel there in third. On the women's 2347 01:48:35,320 --> 01:48:40,480 Speaker 8: side of things, ari Arna tip miss proving her dominance 2348 01:48:40,920 --> 01:48:44,080 Speaker 8: in the women's four hundred meter freestyle. She beats out 2349 01:48:44,200 --> 01:48:47,839 Speaker 8: Katie Ledecci, who took braunze, so she had store legacy 2350 01:48:48,280 --> 01:48:52,840 Speaker 8: by making the podium. In a basketball the men's team 2351 01:48:52,920 --> 01:48:55,240 Speaker 8: for the United States going to be an action this morning. 2352 01:48:55,240 --> 01:48:59,240 Speaker 8: It's coming up at eleven fifteen Eastern time and they 2353 01:48:59,360 --> 01:49:04,320 Speaker 8: will be face seeing Serbia. Canada women's soccer coach Bev 2354 01:49:04,439 --> 01:49:07,599 Speaker 8: Priests been suspended for a year. They were caught using 2355 01:49:07,720 --> 01:49:12,080 Speaker 8: drones this week in Paris and not a raised suspicion 2356 01:49:12,120 --> 01:49:15,599 Speaker 8: and eventually found out that Canada has been doing that, 2357 01:49:16,200 --> 01:49:18,160 Speaker 8: not just in the Olympics, but had been doing so 2358 01:49:18,400 --> 01:49:21,720 Speaker 8: in recent years, so that got Bev Priests been suspended 2359 01:49:21,760 --> 01:49:24,840 Speaker 8: for a year. The Canadian team has been knocked back 2360 01:49:24,880 --> 01:49:27,639 Speaker 8: six points or excuse me negative yeah, has been knocked 2361 01:49:27,640 --> 01:49:29,720 Speaker 8: back six points in the standings to be negative three now, 2362 01:49:29,720 --> 01:49:32,040 Speaker 8: which means they had to sweep the tournament or sweep 2363 01:49:32,120 --> 01:49:36,320 Speaker 8: the first the round robin play in order to advance 2364 01:49:36,360 --> 01:49:38,600 Speaker 8: to the metal round. But they have Colombian France to 2365 01:49:38,640 --> 01:49:41,519 Speaker 8: get through, So not looking good for the Canadians and 2366 01:49:41,560 --> 01:49:45,080 Speaker 8: an ESPN report saying that there's a long pattern of 2367 01:49:45,080 --> 01:49:49,000 Speaker 8: circumstances involving Canadian teams attempting to view other teams close practices. 2368 01:49:49,040 --> 01:49:52,680 Speaker 8: According to the United States Soccer Federation, they believe that 2369 01:49:52,800 --> 01:49:56,439 Speaker 8: the Americans were targets at times for that, so a 2370 01:49:56,520 --> 01:50:00,519 Speaker 8: lot more to develop here in this situation and involving 2371 01:50:00,560 --> 01:50:06,440 Speaker 8: the Canadian Soccer organization. In Major League Baseball, the Marlins 2372 01:50:06,760 --> 01:50:10,160 Speaker 8: receiving three prospects as they're sending Jazz Chisholm to the 2373 01:50:10,200 --> 01:50:14,200 Speaker 8: New York Yankee, so New York bolstering their lineup before 2374 01:50:14,600 --> 01:50:17,760 Speaker 8: the trade deadline, the Mets, according to ESPN, finalizing a 2375 01:50:17,800 --> 01:50:21,680 Speaker 8: trade to acquire Jesse Winker from the Washington Nationals. And 2376 01:50:21,760 --> 01:50:24,080 Speaker 8: as for the action on the Diamond, Aaron Judge with 2377 01:50:24,120 --> 01:50:26,880 Speaker 8: his thirty seventh home run, Yankees won it in extras 2378 01:50:27,080 --> 01:50:29,880 Speaker 8: against the Red Sox eleven to eight. Dodgers blow a 2379 01:50:29,960 --> 01:50:32,760 Speaker 8: five run lead as the Astros win it on an 2380 01:50:32,800 --> 01:50:35,880 Speaker 8: Alex Bregman home run. Showio Toni did go deep launch 2381 01:50:35,920 --> 01:50:38,120 Speaker 8: in that one deep into the second deck at a 2382 01:50:38,600 --> 01:50:41,080 Speaker 8: minute made Park, but was not enough, as the Dodgers 2383 01:50:41,120 --> 01:50:43,560 Speaker 8: end up losing the Giants a doubleheader win against the 2384 01:50:43,640 --> 01:50:46,040 Speaker 8: Rockies four to one in five to zero games one 2385 01:50:46,080 --> 01:50:48,920 Speaker 8: and two, respectively. Blake Snell he didn't pick up the victory, 2386 01:50:48,960 --> 01:50:53,320 Speaker 8: but fifteen strikeouts in six innings, so he certainly pitched 2387 01:50:53,360 --> 01:50:56,640 Speaker 8: well enough to get the victory. Padres seven games in 2388 01:50:56,640 --> 01:50:58,320 Speaker 8: a row now they've won, including a nine to four 2389 01:50:58,400 --> 01:51:01,000 Speaker 8: win at the Baltimore Orioles and the Brave snapping their 2390 01:51:01,080 --> 01:51:04,200 Speaker 8: six game skid as they shout out the Mats for nothing. 2391 01:51:04,320 --> 01:51:06,320 Speaker 2: Back to you guys, all right, thanks keV, have a 2392 01:51:06,320 --> 01:51:09,000 Speaker 2: great day now. The picks on these teams are very easy. 2393 01:51:09,040 --> 01:51:11,439 Speaker 2: That's right around the corner. He's Bucky Brooks and Andy Furman. 2394 01:51:11,520 --> 01:51:14,080 Speaker 2: We are Fox Sports Sunday at Fox Sports Radio. The 2395 01:51:14,200 --> 01:51:17,400 Speaker 2: Blame Game in about seven minutes from now, we'll say 2396 01:51:17,439 --> 01:51:20,519 Speaker 2: seven minutes from now, the Blame Game. And continuing, I've 2397 01:51:20,600 --> 01:51:22,600 Speaker 2: said the picks on these teams that Browns, Cowboys and 2398 01:51:22,680 --> 01:51:25,040 Speaker 2: forty nine Ers will get to them momentarily. But right now, 2399 01:51:25,200 --> 01:51:28,719 Speaker 2: my Cincinnati Bengals, I'm on the band I'm a Bandwagon fan. 2400 01:51:29,720 --> 01:51:33,360 Speaker 2: When they were losing and the decade of the nineties. 2401 01:51:33,360 --> 01:51:36,040 Speaker 2: They were terrible. They were I would rip them up 2402 01:51:36,080 --> 01:51:38,280 Speaker 2: and down. I'd kill them. Now I'm a fan, That's 2403 01:51:38,280 --> 01:51:40,759 Speaker 2: the way I am. I'm a bandwagon kind of guy, really, 2404 01:51:41,240 --> 01:51:44,760 Speaker 2: And I think the non quarterback MVP has got to 2405 01:51:44,800 --> 01:51:48,439 Speaker 2: be Jamar Chase, three time Pro Bowler, Offensive Rookie of 2406 01:51:48,439 --> 01:51:50,920 Speaker 2: the Year, and I gotta believe. And maybe I'm wrong, 2407 01:51:50,960 --> 01:51:53,120 Speaker 2: maybe you heard something about this. I think that the 2408 01:51:53,160 --> 01:51:55,840 Speaker 2: fact that he played at LSU, where Joe Burrow was 2409 01:51:55,880 --> 01:51:58,000 Speaker 2: at I think Joe Burrow had a lot of influence 2410 01:51:58,000 --> 01:51:59,400 Speaker 2: in the in the Bengals drafting him. 2411 01:51:59,400 --> 01:52:02,479 Speaker 4: What do you think, Yeah, they certainly had a lot 2412 01:52:02,520 --> 01:52:05,800 Speaker 4: of influence Joe. Look, you always want the quarterback to 2413 01:52:07,640 --> 01:52:09,960 Speaker 4: have what he needs. And if Joe Burrow signs off 2414 01:52:10,000 --> 01:52:12,120 Speaker 4: on someone, then you certainly take a look at it 2415 01:52:12,160 --> 01:52:15,080 Speaker 4: has to fit within the value and all those other things. 2416 01:52:15,080 --> 01:52:17,320 Speaker 4: But yeah, Joe, I would expect him, as a big 2417 01:52:17,360 --> 01:52:20,760 Speaker 4: money player to carry some sway in that office. 2418 01:52:21,360 --> 01:52:24,320 Speaker 2: And you like, Jamar Chase is the MVP non quarterback? 2419 01:52:25,240 --> 01:52:27,200 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, because he's a big part of what they do. 2420 01:52:27,320 --> 01:52:30,200 Speaker 4: He's the centerpiece, he's the number one receiver. And even 2421 01:52:30,200 --> 01:52:33,639 Speaker 4: though they were reluctant to pay t Higgins. You can't 2422 01:52:33,680 --> 01:52:35,720 Speaker 4: do that with Jamar Chase. De mar Chase is a 2423 01:52:35,760 --> 01:52:38,920 Speaker 4: different breed. We see the explosives, we see the side, 2424 01:52:38,960 --> 01:52:41,000 Speaker 4: We see how he works and how he makes the 2425 01:52:41,040 --> 01:52:44,640 Speaker 4: game so much easier for Joe Burrow. If Joe Burrow says, hey, man, 2426 01:52:44,680 --> 01:52:47,160 Speaker 4: I need my number one here, then you gotta pay him. 2427 01:52:47,640 --> 01:52:49,960 Speaker 2: And I would say this, I think that that the 2428 01:52:49,960 --> 01:52:53,080 Speaker 2: Bengals will be winning games by just outscoring their opponent. 2429 01:52:53,160 --> 01:52:56,040 Speaker 2: The defense is not going to be top notch defense. 2430 01:52:56,160 --> 01:52:58,599 Speaker 2: They're gould win games like you know, thirty five thirty 2431 01:52:58,640 --> 01:53:01,400 Speaker 2: one this year just to score more points than the opposition. 2432 01:53:02,200 --> 01:53:03,920 Speaker 4: I mean, there's a lot of pressure on Joe Burrow 2433 01:53:04,000 --> 01:53:07,040 Speaker 4: to be very efficient, to be on top of his 2434 01:53:07,120 --> 01:53:11,280 Speaker 4: game and that stuff. But look, I understand where you're 2435 01:53:11,280 --> 01:53:13,920 Speaker 4: coming from, because that's a very real possibility. They're going 2436 01:53:13,960 --> 01:53:17,160 Speaker 4: to need him to play at a high level and 2437 01:53:17,240 --> 01:53:19,920 Speaker 4: he has to give them that kind of performance. I mean, 2438 01:53:19,920 --> 01:53:22,360 Speaker 4: they're paying him big money for that. And with the 2439 01:53:22,400 --> 01:53:25,639 Speaker 4: receiver in the fold, Jamar Chase, they're gonna need everybody 2440 01:53:25,680 --> 01:53:27,479 Speaker 4: to kind of hit this thing. Going a lot of 2441 01:53:27,479 --> 01:53:29,800 Speaker 4: pressure to be able to hit thirty each week, A 2442 01:53:29,800 --> 01:53:31,800 Speaker 4: lot of it's not a video game, not a video 2443 01:53:31,840 --> 01:53:34,000 Speaker 4: game and tough and. 2444 01:53:33,960 --> 01:53:35,400 Speaker 2: You could help me out here because he had that 2445 01:53:35,520 --> 01:53:39,439 Speaker 2: risk injury last year and you know again you've been there, 2446 01:53:39,520 --> 01:53:42,760 Speaker 2: done that, played the game. How serious is that? Can 2447 01:53:42,760 --> 01:53:44,920 Speaker 2: he come back from it? No one's really talking about it. 2448 01:53:44,920 --> 01:53:47,000 Speaker 2: He says he feels good. You know, I watched the 2449 01:53:47,040 --> 01:53:49,519 Speaker 2: TV Sports guys at eleven o'clock and so they see 2450 01:53:49,600 --> 01:53:52,240 Speaker 2: him in private. He looks great throwing the football. That 2451 01:53:52,320 --> 01:53:55,280 Speaker 2: doesn't mean anything. Seven on seven throwing the football when 2452 01:53:55,280 --> 01:53:57,800 Speaker 2: a guy's rushing you, trying to you know, kind of 2453 01:53:57,840 --> 01:54:00,040 Speaker 2: throw his body on you, there's a little different. And 2454 01:54:00,040 --> 01:54:02,920 Speaker 2: then seven on seven without without pads on. I mean 2455 01:54:03,120 --> 01:54:05,040 Speaker 2: that risk thing is that is that big of a deal. 2456 01:54:05,320 --> 01:54:08,120 Speaker 2: Have you seen people with rest risk injuries coming back? 2457 01:54:08,360 --> 01:54:09,160 Speaker 2: Tell me about that? 2458 01:54:09,240 --> 01:54:11,320 Speaker 4: If he can, Yeah, he can come back, depending on 2459 01:54:11,960 --> 01:54:13,840 Speaker 4: how bad it is, but he certainly can come back. 2460 01:54:13,880 --> 01:54:17,439 Speaker 4: I haven't heard people talk about his balls being off 2461 01:54:17,560 --> 01:54:20,000 Speaker 4: in terms of like in terms of like his passing, 2462 01:54:20,080 --> 01:54:22,760 Speaker 4: his accuracy being impacted by the risk. In As long 2463 01:54:22,800 --> 01:54:25,759 Speaker 4: as that's not a factor, he'll have a chance extended 2464 01:54:25,800 --> 01:54:28,040 Speaker 4: to be to Joe Burrow that everyone loves. 2465 01:54:27,840 --> 01:54:30,479 Speaker 2: All right, it's staying in that same division right now. 2466 01:54:30,479 --> 01:54:32,080 Speaker 2: It's going to the Cleveland Browns. And this is an 2467 01:54:32,120 --> 01:54:34,720 Speaker 2: easy one because you would mention this early on and 2468 01:54:34,920 --> 01:54:36,840 Speaker 2: I remember what you say because I write it down 2469 01:54:36,920 --> 01:54:40,520 Speaker 2: and we talked about the non quarterback MVP. It's got 2470 01:54:40,560 --> 01:54:42,520 Speaker 2: to be Miles Garrett the defensive end because you said 2471 01:54:42,520 --> 01:54:45,200 Speaker 2: he very well could be the defensive Player of the 2472 01:54:45,280 --> 01:54:50,280 Speaker 2: Year in the National Football League. You said it right, 2473 01:54:50,280 --> 01:54:51,720 Speaker 2: and he could be. I think he might. 2474 01:54:51,880 --> 01:54:54,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, he could be.

He has to do it 2504 01:56:02,280 --> 01:56:05,160 Speaker 4: all when we just think about, like the way these 2505 01:56:05,200 --> 01:56:07,160 Speaker 4: games goes. Guys that can impact you in a few 2506 01:56:07,160 --> 01:56:12,879 Speaker 4: different ways that can change it. Atlanta scrimmer, running, stopping 2507 01:56:12,880 --> 01:56:14,920 Speaker 4: the pack, all that other stuff. So you're right, I 2508 01:56:14,920 --> 01:56:16,080 Speaker 4: mean he's a good choice. 2509 01:56:16,440 --> 01:56:19,160 Speaker 2: All right, I'm gonna go to Miami Dolphins.

He's distraught, 2514 01:56:30,840 --> 01:56:34,200 Speaker 4: that stirs the drink as he goes, they go, and 2515 01:56:34,600 --> 01:56:38,120 Speaker 4: the amount of attention that he commands allows everyone else 2516 01:56:38,160 --> 01:56:41,640 Speaker 4: to get loose.

I will counter that with a Breeze Haul 2522 01:56:55,480 --> 01:56:58,000 Speaker 4: the running back. And the reason why is because it's 2523 01:56:58,040 --> 01:57:00,080 Speaker 4: gonna be more important now than ever that they can 2524 01:57:00,000 --> 01:57:01,720 Speaker 4: control the game. And the only way you can control 2525 01:57:01,760 --> 01:57:04,760 Speaker 4: it thoroughly is to run the football. And so brees 2526 01:57:04,840 --> 01:57:07,640 Speaker 4: All plays a huge Roland Dead kind of reminds me 2527 01:57:07,800 --> 01:57:10,280 Speaker 4: of Levan Beill in his prime in terms of all 2528 01:57:10,320 --> 01:57:11,240 Speaker 4: the different things that he. 2529 01:57:11,280 --> 01:57:13,640 Speaker 2: But he was hurt though, wasn't he hurt last year? 2530 01:57:13,960 --> 01:57:16,760 Speaker 4: He was?

The head coach. She's 2567 01:58:54,440 --> 01:58:58,840 Speaker 4: responsible for everything that takes place under her direction. And 2568 01:58:58,920 --> 01:59:02,440 Speaker 4: so if someone flying a drone and they're getting extra 2569 01:59:02,520 --> 01:59:05,200 Speaker 4: insights and spying on teams, they had to come from her. 2570 01:59:05,320 --> 01:59:09,000 Speaker 4: No one is doing that independently. And I know when 2571 01:59:09,120 --> 01:59:11,480 Speaker 4: they're talking about the us TO speculated this been going 2572 01:59:11,520 --> 01:59:13,600 Speaker 4: on for a while.

She's the one that is in charge, so 2574 01:59:15,600 --> 01:59:17,440 Speaker 4: ultimately it falls at her feet. 2575 01:59:18,120 --> 01:59:20,320 Speaker 2: I think Bucky Brooks is too kind to just put 2576 01:59:20,360 --> 01:59:22,560 Speaker 2: the blame on the coach. I think it's the whole 2577 01:59:22,680 --> 01:59:26,600 Speaker 2: nation of Canada. I really do. Yeah, the whole nation, 2578 01:59:26,680 --> 01:59:31,240 Speaker 2: because she's a representative of basically Canadian people. She really is. 2579 01:59:31,400 --> 01:59:34,720 Speaker 2: She was chosen to lead. She's a leader, she's a coach, 2580 01:59:34,720 --> 01:59:36,840 Speaker 2: she's a teacher. What kind of a message as you 2581 01:59:36,960 --> 01:59:39,680 Speaker 2: send out? The message I receive right now from her 2582 01:59:39,760 --> 01:59:42,760 Speaker 2: is that I can't trust Canadians except my wife. My 2583 01:59:42,800 --> 01:59:46,000 Speaker 2: wife's Canadians. I can't trust Canadians from here to there. 2584 01:59:46,160 --> 01:59:48,240 Speaker 2: They're cheatish and if you turn your back and then 2585 01:59:48,280 --> 01:59:50,240 Speaker 2: they'll steal your wallet. So how do you like? I 2586 01:59:50,240 --> 01:59:53,160 Speaker 2: think it's disgusting, I really do in a national stage 2587 01:59:53,200 --> 01:59:55,160 Speaker 2: like that, on an international stage. 2588 01:59:56,000 --> 01:59:58,200 Speaker 11: Okay, Okay, are you done?

Andy? 2594 02:00:07,600 --> 02:00:10,640 Speaker 2: I blame the fact that we are now moving towards 2595 02:00:10,720 --> 02:00:15,000 Speaker 2: an Amazon situation. We're moving towards a social platform situation, 2596 02:00:15,280 --> 02:00:17,440 Speaker 2: a pay for play. They don't want to be on 2597 02:00:17,480 --> 02:00:21,480 Speaker 2: a certain cable network. Cable is pass right now. I'm 2598 02:00:21,520 --> 02:00:24,000 Speaker 2: sorry to see it, and I think that the TNT 2599 02:00:24,160 --> 02:00:27,600 Speaker 2: show in the NBA with Charles Barkley is gonna be missed. 2600 02:00:27,680 --> 02:00:30,520 Speaker 2: But you know what, you move on. You know, it 2601 02:00:30,600 --> 02:00:33,760 Speaker 2: was good then, and certainly people are gonna miss it, 2602 02:00:33,800 --> 02:00:36,400 Speaker 2: But after the first two weeks they'll say, what was 2603 02:00:36,400 --> 02:00:38,080 Speaker 2: the name of that show again? So it's not a 2604 02:00:38,080 --> 02:00:41,320 Speaker 2: big whoopee, it's not a big deal. Move on the 2605 02:00:41,360 --> 02:00:41,960 Speaker 2: heck with it? 2606 02:00:43,440 --> 02:00:47,360 Speaker 4: Wow? I blame CNT. They could have made this easy 2607 02:00:47,400 --> 02:00:50,280 Speaker 4: for themselves if they had just come ponied up early. 2608 02:00:50,720 --> 02:00:54,800 Speaker 4: But the headed the network made some disparaging remarks about 2609 02:00:54,880 --> 02:00:57,760 Speaker 4: not need the NBA, and so the NBA proved to them, Okay, 2610 02:00:57,800 --> 02:01:00,440 Speaker 4: you don't need us figure it out. How they have 2611 02:01:00,440 --> 02:01:01,280 Speaker 4: to go figure it out? 2612 02:01:02,760 --> 02:01:03,160 Speaker 11: All right? 2613 02:01:03,360 --> 02:01:07,080 Speaker 12: So Steph Curry says if his Golden State Warriors hit 2614 02:01:07,120 --> 02:01:08,600 Speaker 12: the skids, he might leave. 2615 02:01:08,920 --> 02:01:10,720 Speaker 11: Who do you blame Bucky? 2616 02:01:11,360 --> 02:01:14,200 Speaker 4: Bucky, I'll bet him go, say, Warriors for letting it 2617 02:01:14,280 --> 02:01:17,200 Speaker 4: fall off like that. First you let Clave Thompson get 2618 02:01:17,200 --> 02:01:20,360 Speaker 4: out the building. Now you're potentially gonna let Steph Curry 2619 02:01:20,360 --> 02:01:23,520 Speaker 4: get out the building. Look is their inability to sustain 2620 02:01:23,600 --> 02:01:26,400 Speaker 4: their run? Yes, they've been dynastic, and it'd be great 2621 02:01:26,440 --> 02:01:28,480 Speaker 4: to have four rings, but there have been some low 2622 02:01:28,560 --> 02:01:30,880 Speaker 4: moments in between. Steph currys gonna go and chase some 2623 02:01:30,960 --> 02:01:33,120 Speaker 4: rings elsewhere. They're not treating him and the rest of 2624 02:01:33,160 --> 02:01:33,960 Speaker 4: the players right. 2625 02:01:34,760 --> 02:01:37,160 Speaker 2: You know, as much as I want to blame Steph Curry, 2626 02:01:37,200 --> 02:01:39,000 Speaker 2: I will not blame him because I love him and 2627 02:01:39,040 --> 02:01:42,160 Speaker 2: I think he's a great ambassador for the NBA. Now 2628 02:01:42,160 --> 02:01:45,520 Speaker 2: I'm gonna blame society right now because it's about legacy. 2629 02:01:45,880 --> 02:01:49,480 Speaker 2: Steph Curry does not want his legacy to remember as 2630 02:01:49,520 --> 02:01:51,760 Speaker 2: playing on a losing team. And it's not you know, 2631 02:01:51,960 --> 02:01:54,680 Speaker 2: it's not a big deal. He's a great player. He's 2632 02:01:54,720 --> 02:01:57,080 Speaker 2: the best shooter ever in the history of the NBA. 2633 02:01:57,120 --> 02:01:59,520 Speaker 2: So no matter if the team is winning or losing, 2634 02:01:59,760 --> 02:02:02,760 Speaker 2: no really cares, but he cares and is pressure. That's 2635 02:02:02,800 --> 02:02:04,960 Speaker 2: what it is. I'm sorry, and that's it. I think 2636 02:02:04,960 --> 02:02:07,160 Speaker 2: that's it for us. So we want to thank everybody. 2637 02:02:07,400 --> 02:02:09,880 Speaker 2: Stay tuned for Hollands and the Swollen Dome right here. 2638 02:02:10,240 --> 02:02:11,240 Speaker 2: Fox see you next week.
