Welcome, Welcome, Welcome to Good Morning Football. 3 00:00:28,468 --> 00:00:30,868 Speaker 1: We are live here in New York City. It is Monday, 4 00:00:30,988 --> 00:00:33,748 Speaker 1: July twenty fifth, the day that's changing my life. Jason too, 5 00:00:33,788 --> 00:00:36,188 Speaker 1: but he's won a Super Bowl. My name is Jamie Hurtle. 6 00:00:36,228 --> 00:00:39,068 Speaker 1: I'm alongside Kyle Brand, Peter Schrager, and a Super Bowl 7 00:00:39,228 --> 00:00:42,508 Speaker 1: champion in Jason mccordy. I kind of want to make 8 00:00:42,588 --> 00:00:44,908 Speaker 1: Jason come back out, come back in just so I 9 00:00:44,948 --> 00:00:47,108 Speaker 1: can hype you up because you got to be a 10 00:00:47,108 --> 00:00:49,308 Speaker 1: part of mine. I'm gonna have that big smile every 11 00:00:49,308 --> 00:00:51,228 Speaker 1: time you say Super Bowl champ. I can get used 12 00:00:51,268 --> 00:00:52,948 Speaker 1: to that on an everyday basis. We thought you might 13 00:00:52,988 --> 00:00:54,588 Speaker 1: stunt on us today and just wear the rand. Peter 14 00:00:54,628 --> 00:00:56,148 Speaker 1: was gonna bring the Emmy too. I was. I was 15 00:00:56,148 --> 00:01:01,308 Speaker 1: going to come in the middle of the table. I 16 00:01:01,348 --> 00:01:04,348 Speaker 1: get to do so many first today. Time for the lay. 17 00:01:05,308 --> 00:01:08,228 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, all right. It's training camp season, and while 18 00:01:08,308 --> 00:01:11,308 Speaker 1: a couple of teams have already reported, the vast majority 19 00:01:11,308 --> 00:01:13,868 Speaker 1: of the league's veterans show up to camp tomorrow. You'll 20 00:01:13,908 --> 00:01:17,108 Speaker 1: see plenty of players on new teams, new coaches on 21 00:01:17,148 --> 00:01:19,348 Speaker 1: the practice field. And since Jason and I are the 22 00:01:19,388 --> 00:01:22,068 Speaker 1: new faces here on Good Morning Football, we had to 23 00:01:22,108 --> 00:01:25,588 Speaker 1: ask which new face do you have the highest expectations 24 00:01:25,628 --> 00:01:28,588 Speaker 1: for as training camp gets going. For me, this is 25 00:01:28,588 --> 00:01:33,068 Speaker 1: an easy one. My guy down in Las Vegas, Josh McDaniels, 26 00:01:33,508 --> 00:01:38,068 Speaker 1: is a huge, huge opportunity for him, second time head coach. 27 00:01:38,148 --> 00:01:41,748 Speaker 1: Another time around, he's got Davante Adams. He actually got 28 00:01:41,828 --> 00:01:45,228 Speaker 1: Chandler Jones coming down. There are two Vegas from Arizona, 29 00:01:45,348 --> 00:01:47,708 Speaker 1: so they have an action packed team right there with 30 00:01:47,788 --> 00:01:50,628 Speaker 1: the guys that're bringing in. Not only that this team 31 00:01:50,668 --> 00:01:53,308 Speaker 1: was in the playoffs last year. They finished the season 32 00:01:53,348 --> 00:01:56,228 Speaker 1: on a four game winning street after going one in 33 00:01:56,348 --> 00:01:59,708 Speaker 1: five before that, going through the adversity that they went through, 34 00:01:59,748 --> 00:02:02,948 Speaker 1: and three out of those four teams were one game 35 00:02:03,148 --> 00:02:05,988 Speaker 1: away from being able to play in the posseason. This 36 00:02:06,068 --> 00:02:08,628 Speaker 1: is a team that we're talking about has the opportunity 37 00:02:08,668 --> 00:02:11,468 Speaker 1: to possibly be competing for a Super Bowl. Jason, I'm 38 00:02:11,468 --> 00:02:13,748 Speaker 1: gonna take you through the anatomy of the show. So 39 00:02:13,828 --> 00:02:15,308 Speaker 1: a lot of times person in that seat is the 40 00:02:15,308 --> 00:02:17,188 Speaker 1: ex player and they had this great passion to take 41 00:02:17,228 --> 00:02:20,668 Speaker 1: and then as the reporter type, I'll just need a needle, Unice, 42 00:02:20,908 --> 00:02:23,468 Speaker 1: You said my guy, Josh McDaniels. The last time Josh 43 00:02:23,508 --> 00:02:25,908 Speaker 1: McDaniels was the head coach, he burned out notoriously and 44 00:02:26,068 --> 00:02:28,348 Speaker 1: Denver players didn't like him. That he was at Indianapolis 45 00:02:28,388 --> 00:02:29,628 Speaker 1: and he was about to take the job and he 46 00:02:29,668 --> 00:02:32,148 Speaker 1: did it. Give the Vegas Raiders fans or the people 47 00:02:32,188 --> 00:02:34,028 Speaker 1: are running who might be a little skeptical on Josh 48 00:02:34,068 --> 00:02:36,268 Speaker 1: mcannons why this is the job and why he is 49 00:02:36,308 --> 00:02:37,988 Speaker 1: ready to take this team to the next level and 50 00:02:38,068 --> 00:02:40,828 Speaker 1: not just cool story in August. How many times have 51 00:02:40,908 --> 00:02:44,068 Speaker 1: you seen that young couple rushing to it get married 52 00:02:44,108 --> 00:02:46,788 Speaker 1: early on I love just to find out, Hey, we're 53 00:02:46,788 --> 00:02:52,948 Speaker 1: too young, too much going on? Look at the bar 54 00:02:53,548 --> 00:02:55,468 Speaker 1: are they? I mean they count they're young at heart. 55 00:02:55,548 --> 00:02:58,068 Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels went through it once and Denver with the 56 00:02:58,108 --> 00:03:01,188 Speaker 1: Broncos the second time around, he's learned from that opportunity. 57 00:03:01,348 --> 00:03:03,548 Speaker 1: You come out, you're the young, zealous head coach. You 58 00:03:03,588 --> 00:03:06,108 Speaker 1: want to do things one way, you learn another way 59 00:03:06,108 --> 00:03:08,228 Speaker 1: to massage it in and get the most out of 60 00:03:08,268 --> 00:03:10,468 Speaker 1: the team. This is gonna be the opportunity that Josh 61 00:03:10,548 --> 00:03:12,668 Speaker 1: run's with all right, Well, due respect to the banner 62 00:03:12,708 --> 00:03:14,588 Speaker 1: hanging Raiders. Can we talk about a team that actually 63 00:03:14,628 --> 00:03:17,988 Speaker 1: does it year if? Because I've the Steelers transition right now, 64 00:03:18,108 --> 00:03:21,908 Speaker 1: Big Ben Gone, I'm looking at Trubisky and Picket pick 65 00:03:21,948 --> 00:03:24,188 Speaker 1: It and Trubisky. I don't know who it's gonna be. 66 00:03:24,388 --> 00:03:26,988 Speaker 1: I don't particularly care. I see the Steelers logo and 67 00:03:26,988 --> 00:03:28,948 Speaker 1: I see Mike Tomin on the sideline, like, oh, they're good. 68 00:03:29,268 --> 00:03:31,068 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, guys, I did something I've been 69 00:03:31,108 --> 00:03:33,428 Speaker 1: off for a while. You might have heard. I deleted 70 00:03:33,428 --> 00:03:35,348 Speaker 1: the social media apps from my phone. I just wanted 71 00:03:35,388 --> 00:03:37,948 Speaker 1: to that texasity out of my like, no Instagram, note Twitter. 72 00:03:38,228 --> 00:03:40,588 Speaker 1: So as part of my returning to work schedule, I 73 00:03:40,628 --> 00:03:42,428 Speaker 1: put them back in. And I had so many tweets 74 00:03:42,428 --> 00:03:43,628 Speaker 1: to catch up on and I wanted to do some 75 00:03:43,708 --> 00:03:47,028 Speaker 1: reachers on the Steelers. But when I reinstalled Twitter, every 76 00:03:47,108 --> 00:03:49,548 Speaker 1: single tweet I was getting looks like this huge win 77 00:03:49,628 --> 00:03:54,068 Speaker 1: Beneville netwere Jamie Erdols. Some of my favorite things I've 78 00:03:54,068 --> 00:03:57,268 Speaker 1: ever purchased with Jamie the Ankers. That's one tweet. Give 79 00:03:57,348 --> 00:04:00,668 Speaker 1: me something Steelers, congrats to the great Chairman Erdol and 80 00:04:00,708 --> 00:04:03,068 Speaker 1: the huge news the best. Cannot wait to see it down, 81 00:04:03,148 --> 00:04:05,028 Speaker 1: So we did a couple, but get to this Stealers streets. 82 00:04:05,028 --> 00:04:07,748 Speaker 1: Get there, get to the Steeler streets. There aren't any more. No, 83 00:04:07,948 --> 00:04:11,188 Speaker 1: there's more. I love this guy. What a good guy. 84 00:04:11,468 --> 00:04:14,348 Speaker 1: Congrats Jason. So I wanted to get to the sun 85 00:04:14,508 --> 00:04:20,868 Speaker 1: all you guys. Sorry, it's good. I asked them please 86 00:04:20,948 --> 00:04:23,108 Speaker 1: announced the fact that they picked me for the show 87 00:04:23,148 --> 00:04:25,468 Speaker 1: at least ten days prior before they see him, because 88 00:04:25,508 --> 00:04:26,988 Speaker 1: I didn't want to get into the water. But I 89 00:04:26,988 --> 00:04:28,628 Speaker 1: don't want to muddy the waters like I felt like 90 00:04:28,668 --> 00:04:33,668 Speaker 1: I wanted my moment before Jason. I'm positive social media. 91 00:04:33,948 --> 00:04:36,868 Speaker 1: You got beat for a touchdown and song. Don't we 92 00:04:36,948 --> 00:04:39,828 Speaker 1: cut this guy? His brother's way better than him. So 93 00:04:39,948 --> 00:04:42,388 Speaker 1: it's nice to be appreciated. I would say give it 94 00:04:42,428 --> 00:04:44,988 Speaker 1: a week or two. They have a couple of takes 95 00:04:45,028 --> 00:04:47,908 Speaker 1: where they're fans exactly Gass Raiders taken exactly. Let you 96 00:04:47,988 --> 00:04:51,628 Speaker 1: on fire. I'm gonna stay in the AFC West, Yes, 97 00:04:51,788 --> 00:04:54,788 Speaker 1: all right, because if the Raiders haven't been raised Annie banners, 98 00:04:54,868 --> 00:04:58,668 Speaker 1: the Broncos haven't either. Since Peyton Manning won a Super Bowl, 99 00:04:58,708 --> 00:05:00,428 Speaker 1: that is the last time that the Broncos even went 100 00:05:00,468 --> 00:05:02,348 Speaker 1: to the playoffs. And now you bring in Russell Wilson 101 00:05:02,388 --> 00:05:04,868 Speaker 1: and everyone just like in Penn, here we go. But look, 102 00:05:05,148 --> 00:05:09,308 Speaker 1: this has been with the quarterback situation. A rotating revolving door. 103 00:05:09,788 --> 00:05:11,988 Speaker 1: Is that such a thing? A rotating revolve not a thing. 104 00:05:11,988 --> 00:05:14,148 Speaker 1: I'm a little rusty. And then you look at the 105 00:05:14,188 --> 00:05:18,028 Speaker 1: records here just just mediocre, not terrible, not bad enough 106 00:05:18,028 --> 00:05:19,788 Speaker 1: where you get the number one pick, which but not 107 00:05:19,828 --> 00:05:21,468 Speaker 1: good enough to make the playoffs, like the worst place 108 00:05:21,508 --> 00:05:24,028 Speaker 1: to be as a team. So incomes Russell, and I 109 00:05:24,468 --> 00:05:27,108 Speaker 1: think everyone just assumes, We'll look two years ago, Brady 110 00:05:27,148 --> 00:05:29,228 Speaker 1: came to Tampa and they won a Super Bowl, and 111 00:05:29,428 --> 00:05:33,188 Speaker 1: last year Stafford comes to LA and they Russell Wilson's 112 00:05:33,228 --> 00:05:34,828 Speaker 1: gonna come and take the team, and they've got new 113 00:05:34,868 --> 00:05:38,228 Speaker 1: owners and balloon we win, a new coach and a 114 00:05:38,468 --> 00:05:41,868 Speaker 1: really difficult division and a lot of question marks around him, 115 00:05:41,908 --> 00:05:43,628 Speaker 1: like we don't know what that offense is with a 116 00:05:43,708 --> 00:05:46,588 Speaker 1: quarterback like Russell Wilson. So I have high expectations, but 117 00:05:46,708 --> 00:05:48,228 Speaker 1: I think all of Denver does. I've said this before 118 00:05:48,268 --> 00:05:50,748 Speaker 1: in the show. Denver is a football town. They just 119 00:05:50,788 --> 00:05:53,108 Speaker 1: won the Stanley Cup, They've got a great Nuggets team. 120 00:05:53,148 --> 00:05:55,388 Speaker 1: It is a football town, and that town has been 121 00:05:55,468 --> 00:05:58,268 Speaker 1: void of a football team worth talking about for many, 122 00:05:58,268 --> 00:06:00,348 Speaker 1: many years. Russell does that now they just got to 123 00:06:00,348 --> 00:06:02,588 Speaker 1: take care of business. Void of a football team worth 124 00:06:02,628 --> 00:06:05,028 Speaker 1: talking about for a while now. Unfortunately, I feel sad 125 00:06:05,068 --> 00:06:07,428 Speaker 1: that I can say the same about my Minnesota Vikings 126 00:06:08,228 --> 00:06:11,748 Speaker 1: mckenvin O'Connell is here now, and the pedigree that this 127 00:06:11,748 --> 00:06:14,428 Speaker 1: guy has as a head coach, he deserves this opportunity 128 00:06:14,628 --> 00:06:16,628 Speaker 1: and the fact that he has worked with his quarterback 129 00:06:16,628 --> 00:06:20,108 Speaker 1: and Kirk Cousins before. This is twenty seventeen when O'Connell 130 00:06:20,148 --> 00:06:23,748 Speaker 1: was the quarterbacks coach with the Washington Cousins was wildly productive, 131 00:06:23,788 --> 00:06:27,188 Speaker 1: even without some of his weapons early on in that season. 132 00:06:27,548 --> 00:06:29,948 Speaker 1: But that was the Kirk Cousins that we love to see. 133 00:06:30,068 --> 00:06:33,068 Speaker 1: Cousins now has been through four different coordinators in the 134 00:06:33,148 --> 00:06:36,268 Speaker 1: last four years. His numbers that singular season with O'Connell 135 00:06:36,428 --> 00:06:39,228 Speaker 1: were they were respectful. We like them, but we want 136 00:06:39,228 --> 00:06:41,828 Speaker 1: to see more in Minnesota. And O'Connell's the guy after 137 00:06:41,948 --> 00:06:44,628 Speaker 1: Now he's been molded by a Sean mcvagh in the 138 00:06:44,668 --> 00:06:46,948 Speaker 1: coming years, and now he arrives in Minnesota and he 139 00:06:47,068 --> 00:06:49,028 Speaker 1: is my new face that I am thrilled to see 140 00:06:49,268 --> 00:06:51,188 Speaker 1: in Minnesota and he's the guy to take care of 141 00:06:51,228 --> 00:06:54,108 Speaker 1: the job as a Vikings I'd say fan of a child, right, 142 00:06:54,108 --> 00:06:58,668 Speaker 1: which is oh yeah you see O'Connell. Ye like yeah, ok, yes, 143 00:06:58,828 --> 00:07:01,068 Speaker 1: I was fired up. I mean, that guy's a winner. 144 00:07:01,388 --> 00:07:02,948 Speaker 1: That guy's a winner, and let's bring it to a town. 145 00:07:03,108 --> 00:07:07,108 Speaker 1: All right. Now, let's the latest as well done. You're 146 00:07:07,108 --> 00:07:09,228 Speaker 1: going to see that. That's your first GIF. It's done, 147 00:07:09,308 --> 00:07:11,148 Speaker 1: I know. Now let's get into the latest around the 148 00:07:11,188 --> 00:07:13,548 Speaker 1: league from our very own NFL Network insider and we've 149 00:07:13,628 --> 00:07:15,228 Speaker 1: chatted on the phone, but now this is a real 150 00:07:15,268 --> 00:07:19,028 Speaker 1: deal in rapp report. Ian. Hi, Hi. I'm so excited 151 00:07:19,068 --> 00:07:21,508 Speaker 1: for both of you guys, Jamie Jason. I mean, this 152 00:07:21,588 --> 00:07:24,188 Speaker 1: is this is very cool for me.

That's our bye. 155 00:07:29,988 --> 00:07:31,548 Speaker 1: I'm fired up because I need to know some of 156 00:07:31,588 --> 00:07:33,588 Speaker 1: these things. Ian training camp is about to be in 157 00:07:33,588 --> 00:07:36,268 Speaker 1: full swing, and Kyler Murray got his big money extension 158 00:07:36,388 --> 00:07:38,068 Speaker 1: last week, but we need to hear about some of 159 00:07:38,068 --> 00:07:41,068 Speaker 1: these deals that haven't gotten done yet. Yeah, and Jamie, 160 00:07:41,068 --> 00:07:42,748 Speaker 1: this is really one of the big storylines as we 161 00:07:42,948 --> 00:07:45,508 Speaker 1: get set for players to report to camp. It used 162 00:07:45,508 --> 00:07:47,788 Speaker 1: to be who's going to report because you know, we're 163 00:07:47,828 --> 00:07:51,108 Speaker 1: always holdouts rose contracts that we're going to be getting done. 164 00:07:51,148 --> 00:07:52,348 Speaker 1: The players that, you know what, I'm not going to 165 00:07:52,388 --> 00:07:55,868 Speaker 1: show up until this happens. Really not in that era anymore. Really, 166 00:07:55,908 --> 00:07:58,548 Speaker 1: Now it's about the hold in. It's about which players 167 00:07:58,748 --> 00:08:00,988 Speaker 1: are waiting for deals and are probably not going to 168 00:08:01,108 --> 00:08:04,388 Speaker 1: really participate in training camp until they get those deals. 169 00:08:04,428 --> 00:08:06,348 Speaker 1: Let's take a look at some of those that we 170 00:08:06,388 --> 00:08:09,268 Speaker 1: are waiting on. One Deebo Salmon for the San Francisco 171 00:08:09,348 --> 00:08:11,548 Speaker 1: forty Nineers. This have been something you guys know, we 172 00:08:11,588 --> 00:08:15,028 Speaker 1: have been talking about for months, is highly publicized trade 173 00:08:15,068 --> 00:08:17,268 Speaker 1: requests from the forty nine ers. Thought at some point 174 00:08:17,428 --> 00:08:19,508 Speaker 1: maybe they were going to do it right before the draft. 175 00:08:19,708 --> 00:08:22,108 Speaker 1: They ended up holding onto him, as general manager John 176 00:08:22,188 --> 00:08:24,788 Speaker 1: Lynch said, two sides have been in talks. Nothing is 177 00:08:24,828 --> 00:08:28,068 Speaker 1: imminent yet, but certainly this is something very firmly on 178 00:08:28,148 --> 00:08:31,308 Speaker 1: our radar that could get done early in camp if 179 00:08:31,308 --> 00:08:35,468 Speaker 1: the two sides come together. Another similar situations, Dk Metcalf 180 00:08:35,508 --> 00:08:38,828 Speaker 1: for the Seattle Seahawks, another star receiver. These two sides 181 00:08:38,868 --> 00:08:41,828 Speaker 1: have been in talks as well. K stayed away for 182 00:08:42,228 --> 00:08:46,068 Speaker 1: most of the off season for Seattle rehabbing that foot injury, 183 00:08:46,108 --> 00:08:50,828 Speaker 1: but clearly clearly Seattle rebuffed all offers to potentially trade him. 184 00:08:50,948 --> 00:08:53,908 Speaker 1: They want to get him paid as well. And then finally, 185 00:08:53,948 --> 00:08:56,548 Speaker 1: one of the best defensive players regardless of position in 186 00:08:56,548 --> 00:09:00,788 Speaker 1: the NFL, Derwin James, the standout safety for the Chargers, 187 00:09:01,028 --> 00:09:03,508 Speaker 1: another situation where the two sides have been in talks 188 00:09:03,508 --> 00:09:06,788 Speaker 1: no doubt when aims to be the highest paid safety 189 00:09:06,828 --> 00:09:10,628 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Building on the contract the makeo Fitzpatrick 190 00:09:10,748 --> 00:09:13,268 Speaker 1: got early in the summer. Even see what happened with 191 00:09:13,348 --> 00:09:15,508 Speaker 1: him in training keep he's already come publican said, he 192 00:09:15,588 --> 00:09:17,028 Speaker 1: is going to be there. But how much will we 193 00:09:17,068 --> 00:09:21,908 Speaker 1: actually participate without a deal. We'll see soon. Welcome back 194 00:09:21,948 --> 00:09:24,348 Speaker 1: to Good Morning Football. This here is the Good Morning 195 00:09:24,428 --> 00:09:27,028 Speaker 1: Football break Room. At any time during the day, you 196 00:09:27,028 --> 00:09:29,228 Speaker 1: can get a snack, you can get a drink, or 197 00:09:29,268 --> 00:09:31,308 Speaker 1: you can find a cast mate sleeping on a couch. 198 00:09:31,348 --> 00:09:34,108 Speaker 1: And we also have a lot of great conversations during 199 00:09:34,108 --> 00:09:36,508 Speaker 1: the downtime. It's a second we're gonna be calling Meeting 200 00:09:36,668 --> 00:09:39,308 Speaker 1: of the Minds where we get to know our new 201 00:09:39,348 --> 00:09:43,148 Speaker 1: co host and some important topic. Both around the league 202 00:09:43,268 --> 00:09:46,028 Speaker 1: and in their lives. At the first question here, every 203 00:09:46,068 --> 00:09:48,108 Speaker 1: year there's a team that comes out of nowhere that 204 00:09:48,148 --> 00:09:50,708 Speaker 1: has a fresh, hot start that we're talking about throughout 205 00:09:50,708 --> 00:09:53,228 Speaker 1: the season and gets to become a super Bowl contender. Jason, 206 00:09:53,308 --> 00:09:55,948 Speaker 1: I will start with you a dark horse super Bowl 207 00:09:55,948 --> 00:09:58,508 Speaker 1: contender for the twenty twenty two season. Who you got. 208 00:09:58,548 --> 00:10:02,348 Speaker 1: I'm going with the Baltimore Ravens. We talked about all 209 00:10:02,348 --> 00:10:06,108 Speaker 1: of the guys returning, Marlon Humphrey, Arcus Peters, Ronnie Stanley. 210 00:10:06,148 --> 00:10:09,868 Speaker 1: There's guys all over their roster, Gus Edwards, JK. Dobbins, 211 00:10:09,948 --> 00:10:11,868 Speaker 1: who had a little bit of spad with Ian Rapberport. 212 00:10:11,908 --> 00:10:15,348 Speaker 1: We won't get into that. But the most important guy, 213 00:10:15,588 --> 00:10:18,548 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, will be healthy and he's gonna have a 214 00:10:18,668 --> 00:10:20,868 Speaker 1: chip on his shoulder. There's been a lot of talk 215 00:10:20,908 --> 00:10:23,908 Speaker 1: about this contract as he's showing up, and not only that, 216 00:10:23,988 --> 00:10:26,268 Speaker 1: the Twitter beef that he had with the old teammate 217 00:10:26,348 --> 00:10:29,188 Speaker 1: of mine, Bernard Pollard. I had to reach out to Bernard. 218 00:10:29,468 --> 00:10:31,668 Speaker 1: I said, Hey, it's a young man's game right now, 219 00:10:31,748 --> 00:10:35,748 Speaker 1: get off Twitter. Lamar's on hair, spewing off ten straight tweets. 220 00:10:35,828 --> 00:10:38,828 Speaker 1: He's killing him. So I'm going with the Ravens. All right, 221 00:10:38,868 --> 00:10:41,188 Speaker 1: I love it. All right, I'm going for the second 222 00:10:41,188 --> 00:10:45,348 Speaker 1: time today. Let me give a school clip, and I 223 00:10:45,388 --> 00:10:48,028 Speaker 1: already covered Kevin o'connoll. I've already covered Kirk Cousins. But 224 00:10:48,108 --> 00:10:50,788 Speaker 1: the guys that he is throwing to, Justin Jefferson and 225 00:10:50,868 --> 00:10:54,388 Speaker 1: Adam Feeling, My goodness, what a talent because they're gonna 226 00:10:54,388 --> 00:10:55,988 Speaker 1: be thrown to him because the box doesn't one to 227 00:10:56,228 --> 00:10:59,348 Speaker 1: do on defense because Dalvin Cook is such a pro. 228 00:10:59,668 --> 00:11:01,628 Speaker 1: I'm such a fan of the Vikings. But also it 229 00:11:01,668 --> 00:11:02,908 Speaker 1: has a lot to do with the fact that the 230 00:11:02,988 --> 00:11:06,028 Speaker 1: NFC just looks like it could there is a pathway. 231 00:11:06,068 --> 00:11:08,828 Speaker 1: There afc much trick here this year. So Vikings coming 232 00:11:08,828 --> 00:11:11,108 Speaker 1: out of the NFC. There, my guys, I like this. 233 00:11:11,308 --> 00:11:13,308 Speaker 1: We're gonna have so much fun talking about Kirk Cousins 234 00:11:13,308 --> 00:11:15,228 Speaker 1: this season. What a topic. And I'm speaking of that, 235 00:11:15,308 --> 00:11:17,628 Speaker 1: Let's talk about quarterbacks me, Jamie, maybe you already know 236 00:11:17,708 --> 00:11:20,748 Speaker 1: your answer, but which quarterback guys quarterbacks rule the world? 237 00:11:20,748 --> 00:11:23,548 Speaker 1: Which quarterback are you most excited to watch on the 238 00:11:23,548 --> 00:11:26,388 Speaker 1: field this year? Jamie, You're going first, Derek Carr. Derek 239 00:11:26,388 --> 00:11:28,188 Speaker 1: car Car. Yeah, I feel like I had to stop 240 00:11:28,228 --> 00:11:30,108 Speaker 1: with the Viking stuff because it's gonna come back again 241 00:11:30,148 --> 00:11:33,828 Speaker 1: to work. Derek Carr a new coach, Davante Adams. I'm sorry. 242 00:11:33,868 --> 00:11:36,348 Speaker 1: If I were reunited with my best friend from college, 243 00:11:36,588 --> 00:11:39,108 Speaker 1: the show would be fire. So I'm just excited for 244 00:11:39,148 --> 00:11:41,548 Speaker 1: the Raiders. I'm excited for Josh McDaniels and what he 245 00:11:41,548 --> 00:11:44,268 Speaker 1: can bring to the table in Las Vegas. And Derek Carr, 246 00:11:44,268 --> 00:11:47,108 Speaker 1: like he's had this resurgence, He's had the numbers time 247 00:11:47,148 --> 00:11:49,588 Speaker 1: and time again. He can get out there, He's got 248 00:11:49,588 --> 00:11:52,748 Speaker 1: a piece together in twenty twenty two, Derek Car's my guy. Yes, 249 00:11:52,908 --> 00:11:57,308 Speaker 1: I am going with Russell Wilson heading to Denver. This 250 00:11:57,388 --> 00:11:59,708 Speaker 1: is a guy who's a Super Bowl champion, a guy 251 00:11:59,708 --> 00:12:02,308 Speaker 1: who's been one of the elite quarterbacks n r L. 252 00:12:02,748 --> 00:12:05,908 Speaker 1: But still we sometimes find sol saying it was time 253 00:12:05,908 --> 00:12:08,668 Speaker 1: in Seattle. Was it the legion of Boom? The defense 254 00:12:08,748 --> 00:12:12,508 Speaker 1: wasn't Marshawn Lynch. Is Russell Wilson any league guy? Is 255 00:12:12,548 --> 00:12:15,388 Speaker 1: he a top quarterback? Now he's in Denver, he's returning 256 00:12:15,428 --> 00:12:17,748 Speaker 1: a top defense. And this guy's gonna have a chip 257 00:12:17,788 --> 00:12:20,148 Speaker 1: on his shoulder and is ready to prove that he 258 00:12:20,348 --> 00:12:23,108 Speaker 1: is the same guy that led to Seahawks to Super Bowl. 259 00:12:23,948 --> 00:12:26,348 Speaker 1: If you watch this show, you know that Kyle and 260 00:12:26,388 --> 00:12:29,868 Speaker 1: I are so deeply rooted in nostalgia and love for 261 00:12:29,908 --> 00:12:32,868 Speaker 1: the sport. Kyle, we'll talk about Walter Payton and he'll 262 00:12:32,908 --> 00:12:34,588 Speaker 1: go right through Jim McMann and I was runner with 263 00:12:34,668 --> 00:12:37,788 Speaker 1: Lawrence Taylor and Phil Sims. Those are our teams when 264 00:12:37,788 --> 00:12:39,428 Speaker 1: we were growing up. We're gonna get to know more 265 00:12:39,468 --> 00:12:42,028 Speaker 1: about you, guys. Jason, Let's start with you. Who was 266 00:12:42,068 --> 00:12:45,948 Speaker 1: your favorite player as a child growing up watching the game? Man, 267 00:12:45,948 --> 00:12:48,468 Speaker 1: this is an easy one for me. Barry Sanders. Okay, 268 00:12:48,708 --> 00:12:51,548 Speaker 1: I was a guy you mentioned it earlier. Saint Joseph's 269 00:12:51,548 --> 00:12:54,028 Speaker 1: Regional High School. I was a running back. I thought 270 00:12:54,068 --> 00:12:56,788 Speaker 1: I was Barry Sanders. Every time I got the ball, 271 00:12:56,828 --> 00:12:59,948 Speaker 1: I was trying to score a touchdown. This guy made 272 00:13:00,028 --> 00:13:03,908 Speaker 1: moves all over the field. He ran over people around people, 273 00:13:03,908 --> 00:13:06,428 Speaker 1: he made will fall down. This was a guy that 274 00:13:06,588 --> 00:13:10,508 Speaker 1: was always entertaining to watch, and he made it look fun. 275 00:13:10,708 --> 00:13:12,988 Speaker 1: Although you didn't see the emotion coming off of them, 276 00:13:13,068 --> 00:13:16,068 Speaker 1: but the moves he was making it fired everybody up. 277 00:13:16,228 --> 00:13:18,988 Speaker 1: I used to love watching Barry every time I turned 278 00:13:19,028 --> 00:13:21,708 Speaker 1: the TV off on Sundays. A great run and back 279 00:13:21,868 --> 00:13:24,588 Speaker 1: retire too soon. No, Randy Moss, Scott, I just can't. 280 00:13:24,588 --> 00:13:27,788 Speaker 1: I'm given. I'm just throwing all my Minnesota. I know. 281 00:13:28,188 --> 00:13:30,828 Speaker 1: Randy Moss, the man made me want to be a 282 00:13:30,868 --> 00:13:33,068 Speaker 1: wide receiver. I had to pick a position. That is 283 00:13:33,108 --> 00:13:35,028 Speaker 1: what I would have brought. Oh my gosh. He was 284 00:13:35,148 --> 00:13:38,308 Speaker 1: so electric, he was so fiery. And then he came 285 00:13:38,308 --> 00:13:40,188 Speaker 1: to the Patriots and I got to cover him and 286 00:13:40,228 --> 00:13:42,228 Speaker 1: I'd take it enough of him. His games though with 287 00:13:42,308 --> 00:13:44,468 Speaker 1: Chris Carter, that tandem and the fact that there is 288 00:13:44,468 --> 00:13:47,148 Speaker 1: once again wide receiver tandem in Minnesota just brings my 289 00:13:47,188 --> 00:13:49,348 Speaker 1: Minnesota Hart Joy. It is pretty electric for me, and 290 00:13:49,348 --> 00:13:50,908 Speaker 1: I'm pattern developed me here, Jamie. We're gonna have to 291 00:13:50,988 --> 00:13:53,428 Speaker 1: run with this thing, all right. Coming up, Derek Carr 292 00:13:53,428 --> 00:13:56,868 Speaker 1: has himself a top five wide receiver in Las Vegas, 293 00:13:56,908 --> 00:13:59,468 Speaker 1: but can he play like a top five quarterback. We 294 00:13:59,588 --> 00:14:01,828 Speaker 1: talked about it, We picked our answers, and we'll break 295 00:14:01,868 --> 00:14:20,548 Speaker 1: it all down next. Top five, top five, all right, Well, 296 00:14:20,668 --> 00:14:23,268 Speaker 1: most of the league's veterans report tomorrow. The Raiders are 297 00:14:23,308 --> 00:14:25,308 Speaker 1: one of the few teams to have their full training 298 00:14:25,388 --> 00:14:27,508 Speaker 1: camp up and going, which I'm sure the players are 299 00:14:27,548 --> 00:14:30,268 Speaker 1: thrilled about and Over the weekend, the new wide receiver 300 00:14:30,348 --> 00:14:33,348 Speaker 1: out in Vegas, Davanta Adams made some headlines in an 301 00:14:33,388 --> 00:14:37,428 Speaker 1: interview with CBS Sports, saying any time you changed quarterbacks 302 00:14:37,428 --> 00:14:39,628 Speaker 1: from Hall of Famer to Hall of Famer, there's going 303 00:14:39,668 --> 00:14:42,628 Speaker 1: to be a little bit of an adjustment. People took 304 00:14:42,628 --> 00:14:45,188 Speaker 1: that quote as essentially calling Derek Carr a Hall of 305 00:14:45,188 --> 00:14:48,308 Speaker 1: Famer and ran away with it. Well, DeVante attempted to 306 00:14:48,308 --> 00:14:51,188 Speaker 1: clarify his comments yesterday, so we'll have to take a 307 00:14:51,188 --> 00:14:54,388 Speaker 1: listen what I meant. I left one keyword out of 308 00:14:54,428 --> 00:14:56,548 Speaker 1: there because that's not exactly what I meant. But I 309 00:14:56,588 --> 00:14:59,108 Speaker 1: do think that Derek's career is Hall of Fame worthy, 310 00:14:59,148 --> 00:15:01,468 Speaker 1: and whynot. I mean people can say that about this guy. 311 00:15:01,588 --> 00:15:03,428 Speaker 1: That guy. What I would say is, is he have 312 00:15:03,548 --> 00:15:05,788 Speaker 1: the MVP right now? No, he has. He won a 313 00:15:05,828 --> 00:15:08,428 Speaker 1: Super Bowl now yet you know that's obviously what we're chasing. 314 00:15:08,468 --> 00:15:10,868 Speaker 1: But what I meant to say was if you go 315 00:15:10,988 --> 00:15:13,708 Speaker 1: even Hall of Famer to Hall of Famer, it's an adjustment. 316 00:15:13,908 --> 00:15:16,388 Speaker 1: I mean, like, even if it is Hall of Famer 317 00:15:16,428 --> 00:15:18,148 Speaker 1: to Hall of Famer, there's going to be an adjustment. 318 00:15:18,188 --> 00:15:20,508 Speaker 1: I wasn't saying hall of famer. Aaron to Hall of 319 00:15:20,508 --> 00:15:24,708 Speaker 1: Famer Derek Okay, so nobody is putting the gold jacket 320 00:15:24,828 --> 00:15:27,308 Speaker 1: on Derek just yet if I understood that correctly. But 321 00:15:27,588 --> 00:15:30,028 Speaker 1: we are curious, is this the year that Derek Carr 322 00:15:30,108 --> 00:15:32,708 Speaker 1: enters the top five? I feel like we tease the 323 00:15:32,708 --> 00:15:35,828 Speaker 1: top five in the league? Conversation? What do you think 324 00:15:35,868 --> 00:15:38,428 Speaker 1: if you're Derek Carr? No? Like, but I just want 325 00:15:38,428 --> 00:15:41,188 Speaker 1: to be like, stop talking. Yeah, And Saturday he said, 326 00:15:41,228 --> 00:15:43,308 Speaker 1: I go from one Hall of Famer to another, and 327 00:15:43,868 --> 00:15:47,468 Speaker 1: Derek Carr's like, bro, the expectations are high. Alrighty, you can. 328 00:15:47,828 --> 00:15:49,828 Speaker 1: And the truth of the matter is Derek Carr was 329 00:15:49,908 --> 00:15:52,108 Speaker 1: awesome last year and that last stretch that they had 330 00:15:52,148 --> 00:15:54,588 Speaker 1: to get into the playoffs, he played as good as anybody. 331 00:15:54,588 --> 00:15:56,508 Speaker 1: But when the playoffs came, it was like, all right, 332 00:15:56,588 --> 00:15:58,468 Speaker 1: let's have that Derek Carr run. We had the Matthew 333 00:15:58,468 --> 00:16:00,188 Speaker 1: Stafford run where he had to have those big drug 334 00:16:00,548 --> 00:16:02,948 Speaker 1: and Derek Carr and Cincinnati had a chance. He had 335 00:16:02,948 --> 00:16:04,668 Speaker 1: a chance to pull the rabbit out of his hat 336 00:16:04,668 --> 00:16:06,748 Speaker 1: and to win, and it came up short. And I 337 00:16:06,788 --> 00:16:09,228 Speaker 1: think what I need to see is not stats. And 338 00:16:09,268 --> 00:16:11,228 Speaker 1: he will be a top fantasy quarterback this year and 339 00:16:11,228 --> 00:16:15,148 Speaker 1: make no doubt, is not great regular season play. It's 340 00:16:15,188 --> 00:16:17,188 Speaker 1: going to be closing the door on one of these 341 00:16:17,228 --> 00:16:20,228 Speaker 1: things and having that signature win. That's how big these 342 00:16:20,228 --> 00:16:23,228 Speaker 1: expectations are. I can't even have this conversation until he 343 00:16:23,268 --> 00:16:25,788 Speaker 1: does something in January. And I know, making the playoffs 344 00:16:25,788 --> 00:16:27,828 Speaker 1: with a big step last year, you get that monkey 345 00:16:27,828 --> 00:16:29,588 Speaker 1: off your back. You're like, all right, I got that done. 346 00:16:29,628 --> 00:16:31,188 Speaker 1: But now it's that next thing. And when you're talking 347 00:16:31,188 --> 00:16:33,588 Speaker 1: about top five quarterbacks, talking about rarefied Air, you're talking 348 00:16:33,588 --> 00:16:37,068 Speaker 1: about the Rogers, Mahomes, the Josh Allen, the Brady, are 349 00:16:37,068 --> 00:16:39,508 Speaker 1: you that fifth guy? Because I know Lamar is lurking. 350 00:16:39,668 --> 00:16:41,068 Speaker 1: I know they're at all a different guy. I know 351 00:16:41,108 --> 00:16:43,788 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott wants in that conversation question, you know Justin 352 00:16:43,868 --> 00:16:46,228 Speaker 1: Herbert wants, and that thing is Derek Carr that fifth guy? 353 00:16:46,668 --> 00:16:49,108 Speaker 1: I don't see it right now, but finished one of 354 00:16:49,108 --> 00:16:51,908 Speaker 1: those drives, get that signature win, that stuff matters, I 355 00:16:51,948 --> 00:16:54,228 Speaker 1: would say, let's wait and see. Yeah. For me, I'm 356 00:16:54,228 --> 00:16:55,988 Speaker 1: gonna have to agree with you. My answer is a null. 357 00:16:56,068 --> 00:16:58,668 Speaker 1: And my answer is not to discredit Derek Carr because 358 00:16:58,708 --> 00:17:01,268 Speaker 1: I feel like he's a very, very good That's okay, 359 00:17:01,308 --> 00:17:04,628 Speaker 1: NFL quarterback exactly, and that's fine. This is a guy 360 00:17:04,668 --> 00:17:06,908 Speaker 1: who's had a ton of success. We saw him with 361 00:17:06,988 --> 00:17:09,788 Speaker 1: a top receiver and Amari Cooper. He's had Darren Waller 362 00:17:09,988 --> 00:17:12,348 Speaker 1: and his offense for the last few years. The numbers 363 00:17:12,348 --> 00:17:14,108 Speaker 1: this guy has put up in the stats that he's 364 00:17:14,148 --> 00:17:17,948 Speaker 1: put up are incredible. We've seen the type of player 365 00:17:18,028 --> 00:17:20,388 Speaker 1: he is in the NFL. I compare it to a 366 00:17:20,388 --> 00:17:22,908 Speaker 1: guy like Matthew Stafford. This was a guy who was 367 00:17:23,028 --> 00:17:25,588 Speaker 1: killing it, putting up crazy numbers goals and wins a 368 00:17:25,588 --> 00:17:27,788 Speaker 1: Super Bowl this year. Does that make him one of 369 00:17:27,788 --> 00:17:30,028 Speaker 1: the top quarterbacks in the league. I don't think so. 370 00:17:30,228 --> 00:17:32,148 Speaker 1: Is he one of the better guys, for sure? But 371 00:17:32,188 --> 00:17:35,148 Speaker 1: does that make him automatically a top guy because he 372 00:17:35,268 --> 00:17:38,268 Speaker 1: got maybe a better coach, he got better players around him, 373 00:17:38,508 --> 00:17:43,308 Speaker 1: so there's more team success. But it doesn't just automatically 374 00:17:43,348 --> 00:17:45,748 Speaker 1: give you a top quarterback. Like you mentioned, a guy 375 00:17:45,788 --> 00:17:49,188 Speaker 1: like Dak Prescott who's been very impressive. We never talk 376 00:17:49,268 --> 00:17:52,668 Speaker 1: about him as being a top five guy in this league. 377 00:17:52,828 --> 00:17:54,668 Speaker 1: But if he was to get a better team, a 378 00:17:54,708 --> 00:17:56,868 Speaker 1: different coach, and won a Super Bowl, does that make 379 00:17:56,948 --> 00:17:58,988 Speaker 1: him all of a sudden Oh yeah, Now, you're better 380 00:17:58,988 --> 00:18:01,868 Speaker 1: than Tom Brady because you happen to win this year. 381 00:18:02,108 --> 00:18:04,188 Speaker 1: I don't think I think we know who Derek Carr is. 382 00:18:04,388 --> 00:18:05,868 Speaker 1: I think it does. I mean, you want a super 383 00:18:05,948 --> 00:18:08,148 Speaker 1: Bowl if Tom Brady last year, Tom Brady didn't want 384 00:18:08,148 --> 00:18:10,468 Speaker 1: a super Bowl. I'm gonna get buried for saying this. 385 00:18:10,708 --> 00:18:13,348 Speaker 1: But like in that single season, not a top five 386 00:18:13,388 --> 00:18:16,068 Speaker 1: guy you have to put. I think last year Stafford 387 00:18:16,108 --> 00:18:17,948 Speaker 1: and then Joe Burrow. When you look at the season 388 00:18:17,988 --> 00:18:20,988 Speaker 1: in hindsight, looking ahead, sure the top five is going 389 00:18:21,068 --> 00:18:22,908 Speaker 1: to look different, but I don't know, you know, no 390 00:18:23,068 --> 00:18:25,828 Speaker 1: less they were incredible and it's Burrow went through car. 391 00:18:25,868 --> 00:18:27,668 Speaker 1: I didn't even mentioned Stafford or Burrow. And I listened 392 00:18:27,668 --> 00:18:30,148 Speaker 1: to my list. That's how tough that top Yeah, yeah, yeah, 393 00:18:30,228 --> 00:18:32,468 Speaker 1: talk about Justin Herbert, Yeah and Jason just Keyler brings 394 00:18:32,548 --> 00:18:34,508 Speaker 1: up Dak Prescott who has won in the playoffs. Eric 395 00:18:34,508 --> 00:18:35,748 Speaker 1: her is now. But this is why this is great. 396 00:18:35,748 --> 00:18:38,828 Speaker 1: There's always guys who fill that mold of good guy, 397 00:18:38,988 --> 00:18:42,108 Speaker 1: good player, good teammate. Just sorry, football is hard, you know, 398 00:18:42,268 --> 00:18:44,788 Speaker 1: I look at someone just random example of Philip Rivers, 399 00:18:44,988 --> 00:18:47,508 Speaker 1: great guy, great teammate, did some winning. Just ever was 400 00:18:47,628 --> 00:18:50,108 Speaker 1: that guy and I think Derek Carr now is the 401 00:18:50,148 --> 00:18:54,188 Speaker 1: new Matthew Stafford. That is, the guy who unbelievably beloved 402 00:18:54,188 --> 00:18:57,428 Speaker 1: by his teammates, very talented, says the right things. Good guy, 403 00:18:57,548 --> 00:19:03,268 Speaker 1: good family, hasn't accomplished bub kiss nothing, no playoff wins. Guys, 404 00:19:03,308 --> 00:19:05,308 Speaker 1: that's how we measure people in the It doesn't matter 405 00:19:05,348 --> 00:19:07,228 Speaker 1: how many of your teammates say you're awesome or how 406 00:19:07,228 --> 00:19:09,628 Speaker 1: many games you win. Derek Carr is just this sort 407 00:19:09,668 --> 00:19:12,628 Speaker 1: of purgatory of quarterbacks. And I'm trying to look for 408 00:19:12,668 --> 00:19:15,228 Speaker 1: a comp and I went to the world of Hollywood. Yeah, 409 00:19:15,268 --> 00:19:18,668 Speaker 1: who is the Hollywood comp for Derek Carr? What actor? 410 00:19:18,948 --> 00:19:20,948 Speaker 1: And I'm like, I think I got it. Here's where 411 00:19:20,988 --> 00:19:24,748 Speaker 1: I got Jake. I think Jake's pretty good. Jake is 412 00:19:24,748 --> 00:19:27,348 Speaker 1: pretty good. So it's Derek Carr good. So it's not Jake, 413 00:19:27,388 --> 00:19:32,468 Speaker 1: ain't Leo Matt Damon. They both sort of have this bland, 414 00:19:32,948 --> 00:19:37,228 Speaker 1: unoffensive appeal. You know, they're people like them. Jake got 415 00:19:37,268 --> 00:19:39,948 Speaker 1: an Oscar Nam for a Brokeback Mountain. I feel like 416 00:19:40,028 --> 00:19:42,108 Speaker 1: Derek Carr at one point kind of an MVP NAM 417 00:19:42,148 --> 00:19:44,028 Speaker 1: a few years back because he played that well. They've 418 00:19:44,068 --> 00:19:47,308 Speaker 1: never won the big one. They're good. They're very good. 419 00:19:47,588 --> 00:19:52,468 Speaker 1: Famous famous siblings as well. Famos sibling Maggie is Darren. 420 00:19:52,628 --> 00:19:55,108 Speaker 1: You know, I love Darren Carr, but we're still waiting 421 00:19:55,188 --> 00:19:57,988 Speaker 1: for that big, big moment. I think, through respect of 422 00:19:58,068 --> 00:20:00,428 Speaker 1: Jake Jillenhall, I think he's getting the stuff that Leo's 423 00:20:00,468 --> 00:20:02,668 Speaker 1: passing on, and I think that Derek Carr is getting 424 00:20:02,668 --> 00:20:04,908 Speaker 1: the stuff that Mahomes and Alan are still kicking down 425 00:20:04,908 --> 00:20:06,388 Speaker 1: in the f s. And I think that's fair. All right. 426 00:20:06,428 --> 00:20:08,348 Speaker 1: I guess I'm not a rearview person. I'm not going 427 00:20:08,388 --> 00:20:10,268 Speaker 1: to look at the fact that Derek Carr hasn't done 428 00:20:10,268 --> 00:20:12,228 Speaker 1: anything in January yet. I want to look at what 429 00:20:12,308 --> 00:20:15,468 Speaker 1: the potential that he has moving forward. With Josh McDaniels, 430 00:20:15,468 --> 00:20:17,708 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Over the last ten season, McDaniels has run 431 00:20:17,708 --> 00:20:20,948 Speaker 1: an offense that has been the LEA leader in scoring 432 00:20:20,948 --> 00:20:22,948 Speaker 1: in the New England Patriots. So now he gets to 433 00:20:22,948 --> 00:20:25,348 Speaker 1: go to Las Vegas and coach this team with an 434 00:20:25,348 --> 00:20:28,268 Speaker 1: excellent quarterback. Y'all just talked about how you've proven an 435 00:20:28,268 --> 00:20:32,228 Speaker 1: excellent quarterback, a DeVante Adams wide receiver Josh Jacobs coming 436 00:20:32,228 --> 00:20:35,868 Speaker 1: out of the backfield. That's a powerful offense and off Winns, Jamie, 437 00:20:35,908 --> 00:20:38,788 Speaker 1: I that's fair. Okay, Yeah, now I here you Okay. 438 00:20:38,868 --> 00:20:41,708 Speaker 1: Now he makes it to a divisional round and he's 439 00:20:41,708 --> 00:20:44,228 Speaker 1: got those numbers, are we getting close? Sure? Sure you're 440 00:20:44,268 --> 00:20:45,988 Speaker 1: talking about because he has the potential. Those are not 441 00:20:46,028 --> 00:20:48,188 Speaker 1: just made up numbers. It's kind of like, so put 442 00:20:48,268 --> 00:20:50,908 Speaker 1: all those together and you got it. Man. That's what 443 00:20:50,948 --> 00:20:53,588 Speaker 1: I like about that take, because the stakes here Raiders 444 00:20:53,588 --> 00:20:55,548 Speaker 1: finish is seven and ten this year doesn't get it done. 445 00:20:55,628 --> 00:20:57,108 Speaker 1: With all of what you're saying, then were are we 446 00:20:57,108 --> 00:20:59,868 Speaker 1: at with Derek Carr? This is major, major pressure, Jason. 447 00:20:59,908 --> 00:21:03,428 Speaker 1: You've played against him during Derek Carr Week as a defender, 448 00:21:03,508 --> 00:21:04,988 Speaker 1: are we like, oh, man, guys, we better have a 449 00:21:05,028 --> 00:21:06,828 Speaker 1: big week for facing Derek Carr? Is it? What? Is 450 00:21:06,868 --> 00:21:08,428 Speaker 1: he one of those guys? He's one of those guys 451 00:21:08,468 --> 00:21:11,068 Speaker 1: where the coaching staff hypes him up more because as 452 00:21:11,068 --> 00:21:13,348 Speaker 1: a player, you don't when you're going against Mahomes, you're 453 00:21:13,388 --> 00:21:16,588 Speaker 1: going against Tom Brady, against Aaron Rodgers, You're coming especially 454 00:21:16,628 --> 00:21:18,588 Speaker 1: as a defensive back, and you're just like, yeah, I 455 00:21:18,628 --> 00:21:20,828 Speaker 1: gotta get ready to play. Derek Carr is a guy 456 00:21:20,868 --> 00:21:22,948 Speaker 1: that you don't really think in that way, but then 457 00:21:22,988 --> 00:21:24,908 Speaker 1: you turn the film and you're just like, well, damn, 458 00:21:24,908 --> 00:21:27,068 Speaker 1: this guy is better than I thought. Very similar to 459 00:21:27,068 --> 00:21:29,268 Speaker 1: like you said, Matthew Stafford. And to bring up you 460 00:21:29,308 --> 00:21:32,388 Speaker 1: guys points about winning, Yes it changes stuff, but there's 461 00:21:32,388 --> 00:21:35,148 Speaker 1: a top ten list of quarterbacks to win a Super 462 00:21:35,188 --> 00:21:37,428 Speaker 1: Bowl that are the worst ones to win a super Bowl. 463 00:21:37,468 --> 00:21:39,828 Speaker 1: And we always talk about Trent Dilford. There's no disrespect 464 00:21:39,868 --> 00:21:42,388 Speaker 1: to him. Really good football player. They won a Super Bowl. 465 00:21:42,588 --> 00:21:46,588 Speaker 1: Did that make Trent Dilford. No, it's just he's on 466 00:21:46,628 --> 00:21:49,028 Speaker 1: a really good football team. Manage it well. Even Ben 467 00:21:49,108 --> 00:21:51,868 Speaker 1: Roethlisberger Russell Wilson when they won super Bowls earlier in 468 00:21:51,868 --> 00:21:55,068 Speaker 1: their career as young players, they weren't the guys kind 469 00:21:55,108 --> 00:21:57,868 Speaker 1: of steering the ship all the way there, good players 470 00:21:57,948 --> 00:22:00,108 Speaker 1: managing the game. And developed let me flip it on you, 471 00:22:00,148 --> 00:22:01,948 Speaker 1: because he's been good. He's been good. Last year he 472 00:22:02,028 --> 00:22:05,068 Speaker 1: had a special team's interim coach as his head coach. Yeah. 473 00:22:05,308 --> 00:22:07,068 Speaker 1: Right now he gets Josh McDaniels, who's viewed as a 474 00:22:07,148 --> 00:22:10,188 Speaker 1: quarterback whisper what as a player who played for Josh McDaniels. 475 00:22:10,228 --> 00:22:12,548 Speaker 1: What will Josh do for Derek Carr that maybe gives 476 00:22:12,588 --> 00:22:14,068 Speaker 1: him that leap and maybe put him in that conversation 477 00:22:14,108 --> 00:22:17,828 Speaker 1: that Jamie's putting him. Yes, Josh will highlight mismatches. He's 478 00:22:17,868 --> 00:22:20,508 Speaker 1: a guy who is going to build his offense based 479 00:22:20,548 --> 00:22:23,988 Speaker 1: on personnel. So he's gonna find ways, whether there as shifts, 480 00:22:24,108 --> 00:22:27,988 Speaker 1: motions to get Darren Waller on a linebacker, term on 481 00:22:28,028 --> 00:22:30,868 Speaker 1: a cornerback, find ways to move Hunter went through a 482 00:22:30,948 --> 00:22:32,948 Speaker 1: row so that guys can't get their hands on him 483 00:22:32,948 --> 00:22:35,428 Speaker 1: on the line of scrimmage. That's what Josh is really 484 00:22:35,428 --> 00:22:40,028 Speaker 1: good at. That's awesome. I'm Last week, the Rams celebrated 485 00:22:40,068 --> 00:22:43,028 Speaker 1: their Super Bowl victory with a ring ceremony that was 486 00:22:43,108 --> 00:22:46,228 Speaker 1: unlike any other. Later that night, Matthew Stafford decided to 487 00:22:46,268 --> 00:22:49,628 Speaker 1: do something he's never done before, post a picture on Instagram. 488 00:22:49,668 --> 00:22:52,868 Speaker 1: That's right, Stafford is now officially a verified member of 489 00:22:52,908 --> 00:22:56,468 Speaker 1: the IG world. I guess that's what happens when you 490 00:22:56,508 --> 00:22:58,828 Speaker 1: get a ring that ways your entire hands on. That 491 00:22:58,908 --> 00:23:02,468 Speaker 1: thing's ridiculous. Okay, So guys, we wanted to since we're 492 00:23:02,468 --> 00:23:04,228 Speaker 1: gonna hear more from Stafford, we wanted to pick up 493 00:23:04,508 --> 00:23:06,748 Speaker 1: or coach that we would like to hear more from. 494 00:23:06,828 --> 00:23:08,948 Speaker 1: In twenty twenty two, Peter, who you got when you 495 00:23:09,068 --> 00:23:11,428 Speaker 1: get the bag, which was a term that I cringejet, 496 00:23:11,428 --> 00:23:13,548 Speaker 1: don't you secure it? You have to secure the bag 497 00:23:13,588 --> 00:23:16,548 Speaker 1: like there's something that comes with it. And I want 498 00:23:16,548 --> 00:23:19,268 Speaker 1: to see Kyler Murray be like an alpha leader this 499 00:23:19,348 --> 00:23:22,508 Speaker 1: season and not just on Instagram or on Twitter. On 500 00:23:22,548 --> 00:23:24,708 Speaker 1: social media are doing great posts or having a commercial 501 00:23:24,708 --> 00:23:26,308 Speaker 1: in the locker room where he was throwing the ball 502 00:23:26,308 --> 00:23:28,508 Speaker 1: with his helmet out, Like I want to see Kyler 503 00:23:28,588 --> 00:23:33,468 Speaker 1: Murray have that presence that we see in those big 504 00:23:33,508 --> 00:23:35,868 Speaker 1: moments from my homes or that we see from a 505 00:23:35,948 --> 00:23:38,988 Speaker 1: Tom Brady. And now that Kyler Murray is the quarterback 506 00:23:38,988 --> 00:23:41,788 Speaker 1: of the Arizona Cardinals for the foreseeable future, I'd like 507 00:23:41,828 --> 00:23:44,228 Speaker 1: to see him wear that and be that guy. Like 508 00:23:44,548 --> 00:23:45,828 Speaker 1: I look at that team and like, all right, who 509 00:23:45,908 --> 00:23:47,788 Speaker 1: the leaders? You want to see the sea on the 510 00:23:47,868 --> 00:23:49,548 Speaker 1: jersey as the leader. But I still think, like JJ 511 00:23:49,668 --> 00:23:51,628 Speaker 1: Watts a leader on that team. I want a J. 512 00:23:51,788 --> 00:23:53,708 Speaker 1: Green is a leader on that team. I want to 513 00:23:53,748 --> 00:23:57,308 Speaker 1: see Kyler take that next step. And again you could say, hey, 514 00:23:57,588 --> 00:23:59,548 Speaker 1: you don't see what we see in the building and 515 00:23:59,588 --> 00:24:02,708 Speaker 1: all this stuff. That's fine. Perception matters. Also, no more 516 00:24:02,708 --> 00:24:05,788 Speaker 1: bad body language, no more you know careless throws than that. 517 00:24:06,388 --> 00:24:08,468 Speaker 1: I love Kyler. I think he's awesome. I want to 518 00:24:08,468 --> 00:24:10,588 Speaker 1: see him wear that deceive both on the field and 519 00:24:10,628 --> 00:24:12,068 Speaker 1: off the field, and be the face of that team. 520 00:24:12,148 --> 00:24:13,668 Speaker 1: I want to see a lot more from Kyler Murray 521 00:24:13,708 --> 00:24:15,668 Speaker 1: this year. I'm a believer that, hey, you pay a 522 00:24:15,708 --> 00:24:18,908 Speaker 1: guy to continue to be what he's already been. Okay, 523 00:24:19,028 --> 00:24:21,668 Speaker 1: don't secure the bag with him and assume that he's 524 00:24:22,268 --> 00:24:25,028 Speaker 1: of a sudden chamber. But for me, my guy, I'm 525 00:24:25,068 --> 00:24:29,428 Speaker 1: going with McCole harmon, Friend of the Show last week, 526 00:24:29,668 --> 00:24:32,788 Speaker 1: has some good things to say talking about his opportunity 527 00:24:32,788 --> 00:24:36,148 Speaker 1: and what is gonna mean. More importantly, Tyreek Hill is gone. 528 00:24:36,188 --> 00:24:39,388 Speaker 1: This is a guy that had a ton of targets 529 00:24:39,388 --> 00:24:41,748 Speaker 1: for this team, a ton of production, and when we 530 00:24:41,828 --> 00:24:44,148 Speaker 1: look at some of the numbers, mcole Harman was the 531 00:24:44,188 --> 00:24:47,308 Speaker 1: receiver who was next in line behind Tyreek Hill when 532 00:24:47,308 --> 00:24:49,708 Speaker 1: it came to yards, when it came to receptions. So 533 00:24:50,228 --> 00:24:54,548 Speaker 1: this giant void now with Tyreek Hill gone, this allows 534 00:24:54,668 --> 00:24:57,948 Speaker 1: McCole Harman the opportunity to continue to improve because when 535 00:24:57,948 --> 00:25:00,748 Speaker 1: you look at his stats, he's had an advance and 536 00:25:00,908 --> 00:25:04,188 Speaker 1: receptions every year and yards every year. He's been taking 537 00:25:04,228 --> 00:25:06,468 Speaker 1: the steps year after year. But he's had a guy 538 00:25:06,508 --> 00:25:08,388 Speaker 1: in front of him who was arguably the best water 539 00:25:08,468 --> 00:25:11,948 Speaker 1: receiver in the NFL. Now is his time to shine. Guys, 540 00:25:11,988 --> 00:25:14,148 Speaker 1: all I have to say is that the only way 541 00:25:14,188 --> 00:25:18,428 Speaker 1: that roots grow out. Every single day they grow stronger, 542 00:25:18,468 --> 00:25:21,268 Speaker 1: and then we water and we fertilize and we have 543 00:25:21,308 --> 00:25:24,068 Speaker 1: to water more. And how will that flower pop up 544 00:25:24,188 --> 00:25:27,868 Speaker 1: unless we water together? Yes, so I need more life 545 00:25:27,948 --> 00:25:30,628 Speaker 1: pep talks from Nick Syria, the best down the trowbike. 546 00:25:30,948 --> 00:25:32,868 Speaker 1: This is new for me, coming in five days a 547 00:25:32,908 --> 00:25:35,028 Speaker 1: week doing three hours of television. I just need a 548 00:25:35,108 --> 00:25:39,308 Speaker 1: barrage of Nick Sirianni life pep talks and like, I'm 549 00:25:39,308 --> 00:25:41,268 Speaker 1: just gonna fertilize and water until he told me the 550 00:25:41,308 --> 00:25:43,428 Speaker 1: next thing I'm gonna do because I will follow that 551 00:25:43,548 --> 00:25:46,308 Speaker 1: man offer Bridge. It's just like that's genius and his 552 00:25:46,468 --> 00:25:50,188 Speaker 1: highlighter and his highlove down the turpike exactly reference we 553 00:25:50,228 --> 00:25:52,948 Speaker 1: got all I'm with you. Everybody laughed, and he makes 554 00:25:52,988 --> 00:25:57,668 Speaker 1: his plant metal work right to the playoffs, has playoffs. 555 00:25:57,828 --> 00:26:00,548 Speaker 1: I love it. I need more from Matthew Stafford. Matthew, 556 00:26:00,628 --> 00:26:03,148 Speaker 1: if you're gonna do the gram, you do the gram. 557 00:26:03,268 --> 00:26:06,188 Speaker 1: You don't do one off picture and you know, Peyton 558 00:26:06,188 --> 00:26:09,348 Speaker 1: Manny joins Twitter, He's tweeting. Tom Brady is tweeting.

I need a 563 00:26:20,308 --> 00:26:23,188 Speaker 1: lot of pictures of food, a lot of that. I 564 00:26:23,228 --> 00:26:25,948 Speaker 1: want a little I want a little boomerang with like 565 00:26:25,988 --> 00:26:30,348 Speaker 1: two glasses clinking back and think. And lastly, you show 566 00:26:30,348 --> 00:26:32,788 Speaker 1: a picture of significant other and you're write date night 567 00:26:32,828 --> 00:26:35,148 Speaker 1: with this cutie. That's what you have to do. Just 568 00:26:35,268 --> 00:26:38,188 Speaker 1: give us some of those. That's just one awkward picture, Matthew. 569 00:26:38,228 --> 00:26:40,148 Speaker 1: You're gonna do the gram ye and then like a 570 00:26:40,268 --> 00:26:43,068 Speaker 1: mess with your kids around it. Be like hashtag dad life, Hello, 571 00:26:44,188 --> 00:26:48,148 Speaker 1: dad life mood, weekend mode engaged on all that stuff 572 00:26:48,268 --> 00:26:50,588 Speaker 1: sorright mode engage coming up. There are a handle of 573 00:26:50,668 --> 00:26:53,428 Speaker 1: unknown surrounding the Chiefs this season, But is there any 574 00:26:53,468 --> 00:26:56,068 Speaker 1: real cause for concern? I don't know. We're gonna talk 575 00:26:56,068 --> 00:27:15,388 Speaker 1: about it. You're good, all right. Let's head out to 576 00:27:15,508 --> 00:27:18,548 Speaker 1: Saint Joseph, Missouri, where our own Jeffrey Chidia is live 577 00:27:18,668 --> 00:27:21,588 Speaker 1: from Chiefs training camp. Jeffrey, Hello, the Kansas City Receiving 578 00:27:21,588 --> 00:27:24,508 Speaker 1: Corps has been revamped now that Tyreek Hill is down 579 00:27:24,508 --> 00:27:27,788 Speaker 1: in Miami. So what is QB one Patrick Mahomes saying 580 00:27:27,908 --> 00:27:30,068 Speaker 1: to these new guys as they are getting ready for 581 00:27:30,188 --> 00:27:32,548 Speaker 1: camp and their time together. Well, Jamie, he's really excited 582 00:27:32,588 --> 00:27:35,628 Speaker 1: about this receiving corps. Obviously no Tyreek Hill, but a 583 00:27:35,668 --> 00:27:39,948 Speaker 1: lot of talents still here. Mark quiz Valdez, Scantling, Juju Smith, Schuster, 584 00:27:40,348 --> 00:27:42,068 Speaker 1: the Coole Harman who you guys were talking about in 585 00:27:42,068 --> 00:27:45,388 Speaker 1: the previous segment, and Rookie sky More. These guys spent 586 00:27:45,468 --> 00:27:47,788 Speaker 1: some time with Mahomes during the off season down in Texas, 587 00:27:47,868 --> 00:27:51,148 Speaker 1: working together. They've worked with him again after before training 588 00:27:51,148 --> 00:27:53,788 Speaker 1: camp started, so he feels pretty good about where they're at. 589 00:27:53,948 --> 00:27:56,148 Speaker 1: And Scott Moore right now with the veterans not coming 590 00:27:56,148 --> 00:27:58,668 Speaker 1: in is really a point of emphasis. He's got great 591 00:27:58,708 --> 00:28:01,428 Speaker 1: hands and he re raised about his physical field built 592 00:28:01,468 --> 00:28:04,348 Speaker 1: a lot like Tyreek Hill. He's a great route run. 593 00:28:04,508 --> 00:28:05,628 Speaker 1: So this is the guy who's going to get a 594 00:28:05,668 --> 00:28:07,868 Speaker 1: lot of work. Had a hamstring injury in the offseason, 595 00:28:07,868 --> 00:28:10,428 Speaker 1: but again, if he comes along, these other three players 596 00:28:10,428 --> 00:28:13,028 Speaker 1: are able to evolve and play with Travis Kelsey, they 597 00:28:13,028 --> 00:28:15,788 Speaker 1: should be okay in the passing game once again, Jeffrey, 598 00:28:15,828 --> 00:28:18,028 Speaker 1: you can't miss Orlando Brown, but the Chiefs might have 599 00:28:18,068 --> 00:28:19,948 Speaker 1: to do it. They franchise tagged a big man, but 600 00:28:20,068 --> 00:28:22,708 Speaker 1: could not get a deal done before the deadline. So 601 00:28:22,868 --> 00:28:24,628 Speaker 1: are they expecting him to show up? Is he going 602 00:28:24,668 --> 00:28:26,148 Speaker 1: to be there? What's the word? Well, that's a big 603 00:28:26,228 --> 00:28:28,068 Speaker 1: question right now, and that will be the question up 604 00:28:28,148 --> 00:28:31,108 Speaker 1: until three o'clock today's Central time. That's when veterans need 605 00:28:31,148 --> 00:28:33,708 Speaker 1: to be here and report. And Andrey was asked this 606 00:28:33,868 --> 00:28:36,148 Speaker 1: question over the weekend. He said, he's not sure what's 607 00:28:36,148 --> 00:28:38,068 Speaker 1: going to happen here. They try to get the long 608 00:28:38,188 --> 00:28:41,308 Speaker 1: term deal done before their franchise tag deadline on July fifteenth, 609 00:28:41,588 --> 00:28:43,708 Speaker 1: did not happen. He still has a chance with that 610 00:28:43,788 --> 00:28:46,508 Speaker 1: tender to make sixteen point eight million dollars, but he 611 00:28:46,548 --> 00:28:48,828 Speaker 1: wants big money. And usually when guy's in the situation 612 00:28:48,908 --> 00:28:50,668 Speaker 1: get to where they are right now, they want that 613 00:28:50,788 --> 00:28:53,348 Speaker 1: visiting some camp right now. She's aren't happy about that, 614 00:28:53,348 --> 00:28:56,068 Speaker 1: but Andy Reid said left guard Joe Tuney, they paid 615 00:28:56,108 --> 00:28:58,628 Speaker 1: big money to last offseason, can play left tackle in 616 00:28:58,668 --> 00:29:01,148 Speaker 1: a pinch, So we'll see what happens if Tuney's playing 617 00:29:01,188 --> 00:29:05,068 Speaker 1: there when name the veterans hit the field on Wednesday. Awesome, Jeffrey, 618 00:29:05,148 --> 00:29:06,748 Speaker 1: thank you so much. Good to see you. It's only 619 00:29:06,828 --> 00:29:09,628 Speaker 1: the beginning for us. All We appreciate your time. All right, guys, 620 00:29:09,708 --> 00:29:12,908 Speaker 1: those are a couple of significant unknowns in of course 621 00:29:12,948 --> 00:29:16,108 Speaker 1: in Kansas City. But do the Chiefs have the biggest 622 00:29:16,148 --> 00:29:19,348 Speaker 1: question marks across all AFC contenders? And this is a 623 00:29:19,388 --> 00:29:21,228 Speaker 1: very specific category. I feel like you had to kind 624 00:29:21,228 --> 00:29:23,788 Speaker 1: of answer the question backwards, like you got to identify 625 00:29:23,868 --> 00:29:26,708 Speaker 1: contenders and then go back to the Chiefs okay without 626 00:29:26,708 --> 00:29:29,028 Speaker 1: a doubt. And that's what made my answer easy. Yes, 627 00:29:29,148 --> 00:29:31,508 Speaker 1: they are the team with the biggest question marks because 628 00:29:31,508 --> 00:29:34,468 Speaker 1: you have to actually look at the contenders, not the 629 00:29:34,628 --> 00:29:37,028 Speaker 1: dark horses. And this is a team the other ones 630 00:29:37,068 --> 00:29:38,788 Speaker 1: that we're talking about, contenders that we're talking about what 631 00:29:38,828 --> 00:29:41,388 Speaker 1: they've gained, what Buffalo has gotten. Well, there are different 632 00:29:41,388 --> 00:29:43,188 Speaker 1: teams that were saying, hey, they added this guy, they 633 00:29:43,188 --> 00:29:45,828 Speaker 1: added that guy. With Kansas City, we're talking about who 634 00:29:45,828 --> 00:29:48,668 Speaker 1: they lost. They lost Tyreek Hill. They got had one 635 00:29:48,748 --> 00:29:51,588 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty nine targets last year that led the 636 00:29:51,628 --> 00:29:55,388 Speaker 1: team in receiving yards and led the team in touchdowns. 637 00:29:55,388 --> 00:29:57,228 Speaker 1: And do you know who followed them up in touchdowns 638 00:29:57,228 --> 00:30:00,908 Speaker 1: amongst the receivers Byron Pringle. You know what, he's not 639 00:30:00,988 --> 00:30:03,548 Speaker 1: there anymore. So when you talk about question marks, this 640 00:30:03,588 --> 00:30:06,068 Speaker 1: is a team. Yes, they added Juju Smith Schuster, they 641 00:30:06,108 --> 00:30:09,468 Speaker 1: added MVS. We're talking about different guys that they're adding, 642 00:30:09,508 --> 00:30:12,668 Speaker 1: but they have question marks. These aren't guys that were saying, oh, 643 00:30:12,708 --> 00:30:15,148 Speaker 1: they added this guy who's a two time Pro Bowl guy, 644 00:30:15,308 --> 00:30:17,668 Speaker 1: this guy who's in All Pro These are guys that 645 00:30:17,708 --> 00:30:20,588 Speaker 1: are coming in that we're expecting to make a leap 646 00:30:20,668 --> 00:30:23,108 Speaker 1: and make that jump, but we don't know if they're 647 00:30:23,108 --> 00:30:25,268 Speaker 1: going to do it without Tyreek Hill. You know who's 648 00:30:25,308 --> 00:30:28,188 Speaker 1: gonna be seeing more double teams? Travis Kelsey, the guy 649 00:30:28,228 --> 00:30:30,268 Speaker 1: that they're gonna be looking to to do a lot 650 00:30:30,348 --> 00:30:32,508 Speaker 1: for them on the offensive end, and then on the 651 00:30:32,548 --> 00:30:36,668 Speaker 1: defensive guy Tyron Matthew, Anthony Hitchins defensive captains last year 652 00:30:36,948 --> 00:30:39,388 Speaker 1: both gone. You talked about Micole Hardmen in the last hour. 653 00:30:39,468 --> 00:30:41,228 Speaker 1: He's gonna have to step up. Yes, Is he the 654 00:30:41,308 --> 00:30:42,748 Speaker 1: number one or is it Juju? Like, how do you 655 00:30:42,748 --> 00:30:45,508 Speaker 1: see this MVS? And it's Hardman, a number one wide 656 00:30:45,508 --> 00:30:47,308 Speaker 1: receiver in the NFL. I think they're a team that 657 00:30:47,308 --> 00:30:49,588 Speaker 1: we're not gonna say, all right, he's the number one guy. 658 00:30:49,628 --> 00:30:52,588 Speaker 1: They're gonna have kind of jobs. You have MVS, you 659 00:30:52,628 --> 00:30:54,748 Speaker 1: have Hardman. Those are gonna be guys that they're gonna 660 00:30:54,788 --> 00:30:56,748 Speaker 1: look to to take the top of the defense. I'm 661 00:30:56,788 --> 00:31:00,468 Speaker 1: interested to see who becomes Mahome's favorite target. That's gonna 662 00:31:00,508 --> 00:31:02,348 Speaker 1: be who becomes the number one guy. May not be 663 00:31:02,708 --> 00:31:05,668 Speaker 1: talent wise, but is it Jude on those third downs 664 00:31:05,788 --> 00:31:07,468 Speaker 1: where he's able to get to ball and trust that 665 00:31:07,548 --> 00:31:09,308 Speaker 1: he can work to slot and be able to get 666 00:31:09,348 --> 00:31:11,628 Speaker 1: open and pick up before us down. They host the 667 00:31:11,748 --> 00:31:14,868 Speaker 1: FC title game every year. They don't just get They 668 00:31:14,908 --> 00:31:18,548 Speaker 1: hosted the Bills in the playoffs. It feels like every year. 669 00:31:18,628 --> 00:31:20,668 Speaker 1: Those are still some bad, bad dudes. But I'm gonna 670 00:31:20,668 --> 00:31:23,148 Speaker 1: talking about a team close to you, the Patriots. First 671 00:31:23,188 --> 00:31:25,028 Speaker 1: question we have to identify this. Are they a contender? 672 00:31:25,028 --> 00:31:26,628 Speaker 1: Are they one of the FC contenders? I think they are. 673 00:31:26,668 --> 00:31:28,828 Speaker 1: I think they're always in. But there are a lot 674 00:31:28,868 --> 00:31:30,788 Speaker 1: of questions. So you got your surface level stuff, you 675 00:31:30,828 --> 00:31:33,228 Speaker 1: got your your low hanging fruit. Who's calling the plays? 676 00:31:33,348 --> 00:31:35,388 Speaker 1: Is it gonna be Joe. Judges are gonna be Mam Patricia. 677 00:31:35,428 --> 00:31:37,108 Speaker 1: Even if they do give us one of those answers, 678 00:31:37,108 --> 00:31:39,268 Speaker 1: there's still questions to come with that. Have they surrounded 679 00:31:39,308 --> 00:31:41,668 Speaker 1: mac Jones with enough weapons? Is? And not they Parker enough? 680 00:31:41,908 --> 00:31:43,228 Speaker 1: It seems like a lot of the other teams were 681 00:31:43,268 --> 00:31:46,668 Speaker 1: really busy and the Patriots weren't doing that much. But 682 00:31:46,788 --> 00:31:49,188 Speaker 1: the biggest question of all is how are they going 683 00:31:49,228 --> 00:31:51,508 Speaker 1: to beat number seventeen for the Buffalo Bills. We've talked 684 00:31:51,548 --> 00:31:54,148 Speaker 1: about him all morning, Josh Allen and I think this 685 00:31:54,268 --> 00:31:56,548 Speaker 1: is a fascinating time for Bill Belichick and Jason I 686 00:31:56,628 --> 00:31:58,788 Speaker 1: think it's fascinating that, you know, the man in his 687 00:31:58,988 --> 00:32:01,388 Speaker 1: entire run as the new England Patriots head coach, he 688 00:32:01,428 --> 00:32:05,188 Speaker 1: has never had a killer quarterback in his vision. Never 689 00:32:05,468 --> 00:32:08,428 Speaker 1: You can go down every roster for the Dolphins and 690 00:32:08,508 --> 00:32:11,508 Speaker 1: the Jets, anybody you want. Buffalo, it is a bunch 691 00:32:11,548 --> 00:32:14,508 Speaker 1: of Brett fav one year in the Jets, Chad Pennington. 692 00:32:14,548 --> 00:32:16,628 Speaker 1: With Dolphins, there has never been a guy. And now 693 00:32:16,708 --> 00:32:19,748 Speaker 1: they have a freaking axe murderer up in the Buffalo 694 00:32:19,788 --> 00:32:21,668 Speaker 1: that they're going to have to play twice a year 695 00:32:21,868 --> 00:32:24,588 Speaker 1: who beat them by seven hundred points. In a playoff game. 696 00:32:24,708 --> 00:32:26,988 Speaker 1: No shame the Patriots lost that game the rookie quarterback, 697 00:32:26,988 --> 00:32:28,748 Speaker 1: they were on the road. It was tough. Just this 698 00:32:28,788 --> 00:32:31,308 Speaker 1: is the new reality for Belchick and we've never seen it. 699 00:32:31,468 --> 00:32:33,988 Speaker 1: We've never said, oh man, we gotta face that guy twice. 700 00:32:34,068 --> 00:32:36,468 Speaker 1: Are they ready for that? Is mac Jones gonna go 701 00:32:36,548 --> 00:32:38,708 Speaker 1: to Buffalo and win. I know they've beat him last 702 00:32:38,748 --> 00:32:40,348 Speaker 1: year in that crazy wild game, but that was not 703 00:32:40,388 --> 00:32:43,268 Speaker 1: even football. I feel like that's the biggest question for them. 704 00:32:43,468 --> 00:32:44,868 Speaker 1: They could be great. I think they will be great. 705 00:32:44,908 --> 00:32:46,428 Speaker 1: I think it'd be great enough to beat that Buffalo 706 00:32:46,468 --> 00:32:48,468 Speaker 1: team because number seventeen is it's very windy that night, 707 00:32:48,628 --> 00:32:53,228 Speaker 1: very windy repass attempts to Mac Jones. Similar type of 708 00:32:53,228 --> 00:32:56,188 Speaker 1: team for me, especially when you talk about historically in 709 00:32:56,308 --> 00:32:59,548 Speaker 1: pedigree in the coach Mike Tomlins never coached a bad team. 710 00:32:59,748 --> 00:33:01,388 Speaker 1: And yet I'm looking at some of the people talking 711 00:33:01,428 --> 00:33:04,308 Speaker 1: about the Steelers and they're talking five six, seven wins. 712 00:33:04,868 --> 00:33:06,828 Speaker 1: Is this a rebuilding Steeler team or a team that 713 00:33:06,868 --> 00:33:10,148 Speaker 1: went to the playoffs last year and have the reigning 714 00:33:10,588 --> 00:33:13,148 Speaker 1: defensive player of the year lining up as t J. 715 00:33:13,268 --> 00:33:16,388 Speaker 1: Watt will be doing Week one, Like I'm so so 716 00:33:16,468 --> 00:33:20,428 Speaker 1: curious what we get because gosh, in whispers to coaches 717 00:33:20,468 --> 00:33:25,188 Speaker 1: around the league, maybe Tripiskey is an upgrade from Roethlisberger. Like, 718 00:33:25,348 --> 00:33:27,308 Speaker 1: I don't know if Ben was sling in it like 719 00:33:27,348 --> 00:33:30,588 Speaker 1: he used to. This is Yeah, the twenty twenty one 720 00:33:30,668 --> 00:33:33,108 Speaker 1: version of Ben was not the same version it was 721 00:33:33,308 --> 00:33:35,988 Speaker 1: five years ago. And maybe Trubisky's younger can move out 722 00:33:35,988 --> 00:33:38,108 Speaker 1: of the pocket and can run Matt Canada's offense. He'll 723 00:33:38,148 --> 00:33:40,188 Speaker 1: never have the leadership of Ben or the pedigree or 724 00:33:40,228 --> 00:33:42,908 Speaker 1: the resume. But gosh, like, what are the Steelers And 725 00:33:42,948 --> 00:33:45,268 Speaker 1: it's all about one position to me, the quarterback spot, 726 00:33:45,308 --> 00:33:47,828 Speaker 1: because NACI's gonna be there. They've got good receivers, that 727 00:33:47,988 --> 00:33:50,188 Speaker 1: got an offensive and defensive line, and when you have 728 00:33:50,268 --> 00:33:53,228 Speaker 1: Cam Hayward and of course when you've got t J. Watt, 729 00:33:53,268 --> 00:33:54,788 Speaker 1: Like you've got two of the best offensive players in 730 00:33:54,828 --> 00:33:57,668 Speaker 1: the entire NFL, Mica Fitzpatrick in the back. Like they're 731 00:33:57,668 --> 00:34:00,348 Speaker 1: a good team. Are they a contender? It's gonna be 732 00:34:00,388 --> 00:34:02,908 Speaker 1: up to Trubisky or Kenny Pickett. I don't know who 733 00:34:03,068 --> 00:34:05,388 Speaker 1: is going to be the quarterback come contime. Yeah, this 734 00:34:05,468 --> 00:34:08,188 Speaker 1: topic for me brings up an existential question when it 735 00:34:08,188 --> 00:34:11,588 Speaker 1: comes to offenses, which is does the quarterback make the receiver? 736 00:34:11,708 --> 00:34:15,188 Speaker 1: Does the receiver make the quarterback? So with the Chiefs, Hello, 737 00:34:15,348 --> 00:34:18,188 Speaker 1: your quarterback is still Patrick Mahomes. I think Tyree Hill 738 00:34:18,268 --> 00:34:20,828 Speaker 1: is a talent, but your quarterback is Patrick Mahomes, and 739 00:34:20,868 --> 00:34:22,548 Speaker 1: the Titans are the team that I think I'm going 740 00:34:22,588 --> 00:34:24,788 Speaker 1: to consider them a contender. I really need that need 741 00:34:24,828 --> 00:34:26,508 Speaker 1: them to prove themselves for me in the first couple 742 00:34:26,548 --> 00:34:28,828 Speaker 1: weeks of the season and I was terrible at math. 743 00:34:28,828 --> 00:34:32,988 Speaker 1: But go with me here. The greater loss of Tyreek 744 00:34:33,028 --> 00:34:35,388 Speaker 1: Hill Patrick Mahomes A Tyree Hill is not as big 745 00:34:35,388 --> 00:34:38,748 Speaker 1: of a loss as Ryan Tannehill is without a J. Brown. Okay, 746 00:34:38,908 --> 00:34:41,588 Speaker 1: So we're looking at this AJ Brown now right now, 747 00:34:41,588 --> 00:34:43,668 Speaker 1: this is life without the guy that you love to 748 00:34:43,708 --> 00:34:47,428 Speaker 1: throw to. Okay. So Mahomes without Tyreek Hill, still three 749 00:34:47,468 --> 00:34:50,108 Speaker 1: and one, still throws eight touchdowns to his other options. 750 00:34:50,308 --> 00:34:53,188 Speaker 1: Doesn't give the ball away. Ryan Tannehill struggles without an 751 00:34:53,188 --> 00:34:56,308 Speaker 1: AJ Brown. Now a J. Brown is not with Tennessee anymore. 752 00:34:56,348 --> 00:34:58,788 Speaker 1: They have to figure out their offense. Who is Tannehill 753 00:34:58,828 --> 00:35:01,788 Speaker 1: relying on? Patrickhomes not only can rely on himself as 754 00:35:01,788 --> 00:35:04,788 Speaker 1: a quarterback, but you still have Travis Kelsey just don't 755 00:35:04,788 --> 00:35:08,028 Speaker 1: see this going well for Tannehill with the Tennessee Titans. 756 00:35:08,108 --> 00:35:10,788 Speaker 1: He needs to find options in quickly. Is Trailon Burks 757 00:35:10,788 --> 00:35:13,588 Speaker 1: the guy? Yeah right away? The headlines haven't really shown 758 00:35:13,668 --> 00:35:16,228 Speaker 1: us that right away, and it's there are some growing 759 00:35:16,268 --> 00:35:19,228 Speaker 1: pains that happened there. So again it begs the question 760 00:35:19,308 --> 00:35:21,228 Speaker 1: who makes what? And I think Pat Maholmes is going 761 00:35:21,268 --> 00:35:23,628 Speaker 1: to be a phenomenal quarterback. I could be used wide 762 00:35:23,628 --> 00:35:27,788 Speaker 1: receiver and he would still be for just the viewers. 763 00:35:27,828 --> 00:35:29,428 Speaker 1: I mean, this is the depth chart at wide receiver. 764 00:35:29,588 --> 00:35:33,348 Speaker 1: Robert Woods, Nick Westbrook, a Kinay and Traylon Burks are 765 00:35:33,388 --> 00:35:35,028 Speaker 1: like the one two three. That is not what the 766 00:35:35,068 --> 00:35:39,628 Speaker 1: Chiefs have Robert Woods coming off injury. So if you're 767 00:35:39,628 --> 00:35:41,708 Speaker 1: going to consider the Titans a contender, I'm going to 768 00:35:41,748 --> 00:35:43,348 Speaker 1: go they have a lot more question works than the 769 00:35:43,388 --> 00:35:45,908 Speaker 1: Chief stiff. They have tons, And one of the biggest 770 00:35:45,948 --> 00:35:47,468 Speaker 1: questions is our eye is going to glaze over every 771 00:35:47,468 --> 00:35:49,188 Speaker 1: time we talk about the Titans this year. We kind 772 00:35:49,188 --> 00:35:50,668 Speaker 1: of have a history of the Titans, and I say 773 00:35:50,708 --> 00:35:52,468 Speaker 1: this year as a form of Titan it's just a 774 00:35:52,468 --> 00:35:55,308 Speaker 1: little mild, a little tepid, and you start to get excited. Okay, 775 00:35:55,308 --> 00:35:57,388 Speaker 1: I mean there's something and like that playoff game was 776 00:35:57,508 --> 00:36:00,108 Speaker 1: really rough, and it was it was like confirming everyone's 777 00:36:00,108 --> 00:36:02,508 Speaker 1: doubts about the Tennessee Titans. A one seed losing to 778 00:36:02,548 --> 00:36:04,868 Speaker 1: the Bengals, Tannehills a mess. What do you make it 779 00:36:04,908 --> 00:36:06,548 Speaker 1: the Titans this year? Should we believe in them? I 780 00:36:06,588 --> 00:36:09,348 Speaker 1: don't see the Titans as a contender and a lot 781 00:36:09,708 --> 00:36:12,388 Speaker 1: number one seed last year for sure, and in a 782 00:36:12,428 --> 00:36:14,668 Speaker 1: loaded a which was surprising to me because, like you 783 00:36:14,708 --> 00:36:17,508 Speaker 1: just said, number one seed, you're getting Derek Henry back, 784 00:36:17,548 --> 00:36:19,708 Speaker 1: and your thought process is all right, here we go, 785 00:36:19,788 --> 00:36:22,188 Speaker 1: We're going to win this thing, and then you trade 786 00:36:22,188 --> 00:36:24,828 Speaker 1: away A J. Brown And for me, it's just for 787 00:36:25,068 --> 00:36:27,468 Speaker 1: a younger team where you're still building. You can get 788 00:36:27,508 --> 00:36:29,388 Speaker 1: the young guy in, bring them along and he'll grow 789 00:36:29,468 --> 00:36:31,828 Speaker 1: with the team before a team when you're ready to 790 00:36:31,868 --> 00:36:34,188 Speaker 1: win right now, your team is built for that. The 791 00:36:34,388 --> 00:36:36,628 Speaker 1: number one seed last year, and we get rid of 792 00:36:36,988 --> 00:36:40,148 Speaker 1: our most productive offensive player with Derek Henry not being 793 00:36:40,148 --> 00:36:42,548 Speaker 1: out there. That makes it tough for me to really 794 00:36:42,548 --> 00:36:44,228 Speaker 1: believe they're going to be the team that takes it 795 00:36:44,268 --> 00:36:46,148 Speaker 1: over the top of a very good team though. But 796 00:36:46,188 --> 00:36:48,988 Speaker 1: I don't know if I have them in my contender slip. 797 00:36:49,068 --> 00:36:50,908 Speaker 1: Right now, Peter, I think we have a special friend 798 00:36:50,908 --> 00:36:53,668 Speaker 1: coming out in tomorrow. What are you doing? You might 799 00:36:53,708 --> 00:36:57,668 Speaker 1: have seen Randy Reid before, not Andy, but Randy Reid. Yeah, 800 00:36:57,948 --> 00:37:00,988 Speaker 1: you might like the show Modern Family, love it. Yeah, 801 00:37:01,068 --> 00:37:02,868 Speaker 1: you might be having a guest tomorrow in studio that 802 00:37:02,868 --> 00:37:04,708 Speaker 1: We're very excited were you?

Taught me a lot about football. But 809 00:37:19,308 --> 00:37:21,428 Speaker 1: this feels like where we're supposed to be.
