John Middlecoff joining me as he will 20 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: do probably twenty of the next twenty four weeks. I'm 21 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: going to take a couple of Sundays and be off here. 22 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: Next Sunday, I'm off. Following Sunday, I'm going to England 23 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: with my wife. She's never been there. Got to take 24 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: her on that last August trip because then I got 25 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: six and a half months of no time off. So sometimes, John, 26 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,839 Speaker 1: the league has changed so much, and we've seen defensive 27 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: coaches Belichick, Pete Carroll really look outdated. The Pittsburgh Steelers. 28 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: Now we have to have this conversation about Mike Tomlin. 29 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: Pretty early this year, Russell Wilson had five series one 30 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: first down. They can't get the snap right with justin feet. 31 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 1: This offensive line still a mess, doesn't get a great push. Now, 32 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: we can keep blaming Russell Wilson, but if you go 33 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: back to last year, let's be fair. Once Hacket left 34 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 1: and Peyton took over, Russell wasn't the primary issue last year. 35 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 2: Limited. 36 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: Yes, the defense was egregiously bad. Is I look at 37 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh right now and they have too many good players 38 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: to be pathetic offensively? And I mean, Russell Wilson's been 39 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: in this league a long time. 40 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 2: He can't pick up. 41 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 1: First downs, first downs? When does the Mike Tomlin. I mean, 42 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: everybody likes it. It's like Pete Carroll. Pete Carroll's got 43 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: super Bowls too, Mike's gone him. But when I watched 44 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: that team, I'm like, they just feel like tone deaf offensively. 45 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, to me, I thought it was a time for 46 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 3: a divorce. Last year, you know, Andy Reid and the 47 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 3: Philadelphia Eagles got a divorce. How'd that work out for 48 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 3: both Super Bowl? For the Eagles, Andy's won three, everyone benefited. Yeah, 49 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 3: it doesn't feel like anyone's ever on the hot seat 50 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,359 Speaker 3: in Pittsburgh. I'm out. I'm out this year. I think 51 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 3: this is the year that it finally kind of comes 52 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 3: to roost and they don't go over five hundred. That 53 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 3: the offense, the offensive line was getting smoked. 54 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 2: Smoked. 55 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 3: Russell's a shell of what he used to be, you know, 56 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 3: a guy that's lost his confidence. Fields kind of is 57 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 3: what he is. I mean, it's just it's carbon copy 58 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 3: of what we saw last year. They the moment Big 59 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 3: Ben started falling off a cliff and listen, they got 60 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 3: Lucky's the wrong word because they drafted him and he 61 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 3: became a star, and physically at the end, it was 62 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 3: ugly and he was not the same guy. Obviously threw 63 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 3: out his arm. They drafted Kenny Pickett in the first round. 64 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 3: That's that's embarrassing. Like to me, this isn't embarrassing what 65 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 3: they're doing. They got Russell for a million dollars and 66 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 3: traded nothing for Justin Fields. It's kind of desperate. It's cheap. 67 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 3: The Kenny Pickett in the first round. I don't know 68 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 3: if you had a chance. I don't blame you if 69 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 3: you did not watch any of that Eagles Patriot preseason 70 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 3: game Thursday night. I watch Kenny Pickett's not He's not 71 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 3: very good. Yeah, and even if he is a quote 72 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 3: unquote NFL player, he's the type guy you draft historically 73 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 3: in like the fourth fifth round. Yeah, same building. You 74 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 3: always talk about this Pittsburgh. They feel some loyalty there. 75 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 3: It kind of gets weird. He wasn't even remotely close 76 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 3: to a first round talent in the history of the league. Obviously, 77 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 3: we've got a little quarterback inflation, but they've had a 78 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,919 Speaker 3: quarterback issue for the last four or five years, and 79 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 3: this year I think it's gonna be worse than last year, 80 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 3: even though these guys are more talented, because how polarizing 81 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 3: are these two individuals. I mean, Russell's one of the 82 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 3: biggest stars in the last fifteen years. He's become a 83 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,799 Speaker 3: lightning rod and Fields has this like cult like following 84 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 3: and listen, I'm the one saying you should throw him 85 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 3: in because at least he can run around, and he 86 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 3: did that yesterday. But you can't depend I mean, how 87 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 3: many games last year did they win because like TJ. 88 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 3: Watt got a sack fumble touchdown or you know, the 89 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 3: weird shit happens. They play a ton of close games. 90 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 3: I think this is the year that it just doesn't work. 91 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 3: Now for them, that's not three or four wins, but 92 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 3: seven eight wins in Pittsburgh feels like disaster does not. 93 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, Tomlin signed an extension. I'm just saying that 94 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: if Andy Reid, Bill Belichick and Pete Carroll can be 95 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: let go, and I don't think Pittsburgh will, But we've 96 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: got to be honest about this. There is some I've 97 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: been on this for like four years. If you go 98 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: to the best offensive lines in football and the worst 99 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: the bottom is overwhelmingly defensive coaches. Now, the Giants is 100 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: a drafting issue, So Dave all gets pass there, but 101 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 1: it's there is something about offensive coaches and the ability 102 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: to remake, reboot and develop offensive lines. When's the last 103 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 1: bad Packer offensive line they've had offensive coaches? I mean 104 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: New England right now, atrocious offensive line. 105 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 2: See. 106 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: I think one of the reasons Pete Carroll got asked 107 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: is they just felt he the talent was better than 108 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: the production. But I watch Pittsburgh right now, and there 109 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: are things I've always said. Tomlin reminds me a little 110 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: of Pete Carroll. He's a pro, he's got trophy. He'd 111 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 1: get a job. And you know, if Pete was fifteen 112 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,119 Speaker 1: years younger, he'd get another job. 113 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 3: You can hire last cycle. 114 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. 115 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: Also, Tomlin is the greatest lock to be a great broadcaster. 116 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: I think Fox would not hire him a fifteen minutes 117 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: Fox would hire He'd get a lot. 118 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 3: Of money in the open market as a coach. Someone 119 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 3: are paying fifteen million dollars the Eagles. If they had, 120 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 3: you know, he would get he'd be interviewing for the 121 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 3: top jobs. 122 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 1: But I do think the culture in Pittsburgh to me, 123 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: feels outdated. All their money is on the defensive side. 124 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: They can't develop an offensive line. They still draft and 125 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: develop a wide receiver, pass rusher, defensive line, linebacker at 126 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 1: a very elite level free agency. They're not biggest spenders, 127 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: but they'll go out and make a deal. I kind 128 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 1: of just feel like when I watched Pittsburgh, I'm like, 129 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: this just feels broken. 130 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 3: It's not they they don't know quarterbacks. They don't know quarterbacks. 131 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 1: Well, New England is not only broken. They have a 132 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 1: talent scarcity. Pittsburgh's got players. I'll argue that all day long. 133 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 1: They've got player. 134 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 3: I mean, they had one of the best players in 135 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 3: the league, MIKEA. Fitzpatrick's a stud. They got a quarterback 136 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 3: problem and they don't know how to identify it. Mason 137 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 3: Rudolph can he Pickett? I mean they were playing games 138 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 3: with Duck Hodges three or four years ago. I mean 139 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 3: he's dating a country star selling real estate. Now, these 140 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 3: two guys, this has got debacle written all over it. 141 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 3: And listen to me, Tomlin, sometimes you just need a 142 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 3: fresh start. He's also being let down by like, you know, 143 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 3: the front office is drafting these players too, and they 144 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 3: just had a front office turnover. Kevin Colbert, who is 145 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 3: a scout. Scout I would say is pretty good at 146 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 3: his job, and they kind of pivoted to kind of 147 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 3: this modern day the cap guy. You know, I don't know, 148 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 3: I'm just this is not going to work now. One 149 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 3: thing they got going for him, Burrow's health is a 150 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 3: major concern. He struggles to practice four straight days. I 151 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 3: mean he has to take the fourth day. The Cleveland Browns, 152 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 3: while their roster is excellent and Kevin Stefanski is a 153 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 3: good offensive coach, their quarterback situation could be a debacle 154 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 3: as well. Right, Deshaun Watson has not been good and 155 00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 3: the Ravens just are they going to be as good 156 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 3: as they last year? You lose Mike McDonald, do you 157 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 3: lose them players in free agency? But they're still good, 158 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 3: But you just factor in the other two teams. They 159 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 3: have pretty big question marks at quarterback, one being health 160 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 3: and one being Deshaun Watson might be the most overpaid 161 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 3: player in the history league. 162 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: So you know, Jim Nagy runs the Senior Bowl and 163 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: I follow him and he had said multiple times that 164 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: this is going to be a really great draft. This 165 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: just draft that was just completed in April, especially in 166 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: the first five rounds, gets a little wonky mid six. 167 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: That could be a cultural issue. Fewer moms want their 168 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: sons playing football. 169 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 3: We could dieel guys go back. 170 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 1: Absolutely, So it's I mean, listen, we used to have 171 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: seven rounds in the NBA draft. I mean when I 172 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: was growing up, that's what you had. Now you got 173 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: two and you're sort of out of players by the 174 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: thirteenth pick. There could be a time we have only six. 175 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: You know, we just have six rounds in the NFL draft. 176 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: Within ten years, I do think there are fewer kids 177 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: playing it. If you look at the numbers across the country. 178 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 1: There are exceptions. There's your Texas's and your Alabama's, but 179 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 1: you know a lot of these states, sometimes the more 180 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: liberal areas, their moms aren't letting their kids play. Just 181 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: the reality of it. So one of my takeaways. You know, 182 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: I'm watching Caleb and Romadnze for Chicago. Now they drafted 183 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 1: a punter. They feel kind of like they got a 184 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: lot of their problems solved in free agency and last 185 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,959 Speaker 1: year's draft, so they're just adding some pieces. They needed 186 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: another receiver, a little bit of an edge rusher, and 187 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: a quarterback. But I got to tell you, and it 188 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: is there are This was a good draft. 189 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 2: This weekend. 190 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: I'm watching guys Kansas City players, and I'm like, these 191 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 1: guys are good. These guys aren't even mediocre starters. They're 192 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: like some guys that are walking into this league and 193 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: going to be productive. When you were scouting for the Eagles, 194 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: and it was a different time. In fact, two drafts 195 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: ago was considered a very weak draft. I was told 196 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: that by Tom to le Us go with a Chargers. 197 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: He's like, this is not a great draft. You better 198 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: get your guys in your first three and a half rounds. 199 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: Middle of the fourth it gets a little thin. I 200 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: think we're gonna, I really do. In the NBA, we 201 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: know this, John. You go from great draft to terrible draft. 202 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 1: This year was a week draft. Previous draft was a 203 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: good draft. Do you think there'll be a time, because 204 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: of fewer high school football players that we will start. 205 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,439 Speaker 2: Having good draft? Bad draft? Good draft? 206 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: This one felt exceptional, two years ago felt weak. 207 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,839 Speaker 3: I think the sport has just transitioned so much more 208 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 3: to perimeter oriented game that I think the receivers are 209 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 3: going to keep flowing in space, and I think it's 210 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 3: such a sexy position and gets paid so much. Some 211 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 3: of the guys that previously might have played defensive back 212 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 3: corner all want to play wide receiver. I mean, hell, 213 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 3: we see it with Travis Hunter. He his top five corner, 214 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 3: but he loves playing wide receiver because it's a little 215 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 3: more fun. God only puts so many guys that can 216 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 3: play offensive and defensive line on this planet. Yeah, there 217 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 3: are only so many body types like that. So it 218 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 3: feels like that's been pretty consistent with the body types. 219 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 3: I mean, every yearence has been the way you play 220 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 3: and the way that you develop. I mean, when you 221 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 3: were grown up, every team was running the wing tee 222 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 3: hally when I was a kid, it was kind of transitioning. 223 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 3: But the best team in the country Nebraska in the 224 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 3: mid nineties, they ran a verer option offense and then 225 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 3: it as Mike Leach was like, what's this guy doing? Now? 226 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 3: The majority of the league play, or in college play 227 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 3: a version of that, And I think these NFL coaches 228 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 3: have been saying forever we can only get what they're 229 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,839 Speaker 3: giving us. Right, this is not a minor league system 230 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 3: in the sense we have nothing to do with it. 231 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 3: So as the offense has changed, it really works its 232 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 3: way up. So it's harder to find one thing you 233 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 3: have seen, though is there have been a lot of 234 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 3: really good defensive tackle pass rushers, where when I was 235 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 3: in the league in twenty ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, it 236 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 3: was hard to find those guys, and there's a lot more, 237 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,439 Speaker 3: but it's harder to find now good guards and centers 238 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 3: coming out of college. So I don't think big picture 239 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 3: at least for the foreseeable future. But I've said forever, 240 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 3: like football is not going to stay on top four. 241 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 3: It has a wide margin in terms of its lead 242 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 3: right now, and it feels pretty unflappable I would say 243 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 3: at least a decade moving forward. But baseball was huge 244 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 3: when I was a kid MJ with the the NBA 245 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 3: in the nineties, like things EBB and flow, and to me, 246 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 3: you never know. Obviously the concussion lawsuit they kind of 247 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 3: phased off. I do think what you said, this draft 248 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 3: was pretty good. Yeah, I mean speaking at guards, like 249 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 3: the forty nine ers found a guy from Kansas who's 250 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 3: gonna be their starting right guard Cuty. So you look 251 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 3: at the rams they find these, you know, it's like 252 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 3: there are guys you just have to to me, it's 253 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 3: the A lot of guys in a draft have the 254 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 3: physical characteristics, size, speed, whatever, it's about your mentality, and 255 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 3: I truly believe that's what separates guys. There are certain 256 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 3: like quarterback, I think like Trey Lance or justin fields, 257 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,319 Speaker 3: I do think they're trying. That's a position where it's 258 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 3: so fucking hard that if if you don't have like 259 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 3: the specific it can just weed you out. It doesn't 260 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 3: not lack effort. All the other positions if you have 261 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 3: the physical characteristics, like you're gonna be a pretty good 262 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 3: guard defensive tack if you try hard, work hard, take 263 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 3: care of your body. Right, Quarterback's kind of the one 264 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 3: individual a little more skill based specific skill or the 265 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 3: others you can make up for with effort and studying 266 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 3: and just playing hard, especially the line of scrimmage. So 267 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 3: I think when you find the right guys at those positions, 268 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 3: which doesn't really feel like it's slowing down, it's just 269 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 3: you have to the pressure on the staff, I would 270 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 3: say to coach them up pretty immediately. Caleb, you know, 271 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 3: listen everyone, and I'm not gonna poo poo this because 272 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 3: he is a really fun player player to watch. His 273 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,599 Speaker 3: comp has been mahomes and watching him yesterday morning, and like, no, 274 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 3: his comp's actually prime Seattle Russell Wilson right now, the 275 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 3: scramble ability, that's where he's making his sweetest places. And 276 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 3: there are gonna be a lot of negative nancies, like 277 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 3: he can't play from within the pocket. Well right now, 278 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 3: that's not his strength. But if I'm the mccaskey's or 279 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 3: I'm the GM's, like, well, I'm paying the quarterback coach 280 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 3: eight hundred and fifty k, I'm paying the OC two 281 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 3: and a half million. We just need to work on that. 282 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,839 Speaker 3: But at twenty one years old, what he's bringing to 283 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 3: the like is a lot. Yeah, but for him to 284 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 3: be a true true star, he's gonna cause they're gonna 285 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 3: be in big games this year. Yeah, and the difference 286 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 3: of winning eight nine games and eleven games are a 287 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 3: couple third nines. The fields has no chance to make 288 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 3: this guy does. He just has to. You know, one 289 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 3: thing the Seattle and Pete used to push back on 290 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 3: is like let Russ cook. It's like nuts, he can't 291 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 3: really Now I think this guy is better or that's unfair. 292 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 3: Russell was really good, has a chance to be better. 293 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 3: But for him to be a super superstar, like clearly 294 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 3: he can do this outrageous stuff. We knew that, so 295 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 3: I'm not shocked. I'm sure you're not. When he makes 296 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 3: the plate to Rome, I understand the excitement. But for 297 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 3: them to be like Super Bowl contender in the next 298 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 3: three or four years, got to dominate from within the pocket. 299 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 3: But he's twenty one years old. It's a second preseason game, 300 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 3: like what Lebron wasn't perfect, you know, two months into 301 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 3: his career, like welcome to sports. 302 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 303 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: One of the things I like about football is that 304 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: we don't romanticize it. That the game changes, the rules change, 305 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: the kickoff changes, and that's I absolutely love. 306 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 2: That about football. 307 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: Is that, you know, if you listen to sports talk 308 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: radio in America, if there's baseball talk, somebody brings up Mantle, 309 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: you know, somebody brings up you Know, you know somebody 310 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: that pitched Cofax. It's just a sport that's rich in 311 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 1: history and lore. We all collected baseball cards and football 312 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: is not like that. Is that in football you move 313 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: off stuff really quickly. And I think in quarterback we've 314 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: always had these rules three years full then we go 315 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: what about Eli Manning and what about Peyton man You know, 316 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: Peyton in year four had a ton of interceptions, but 317 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: there is something about the current seven on seven. The 318 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: high school college coaching is better offensively that guys come 319 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: into this league quarterbacks. I'm going to give them. I've 320 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: said this, I'll give you Thanksgiving a year two. But 321 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: I kind of know seriously by week two C J. Stroud, 322 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: Kyler Murrie, A. Matt Ryan, Like, I'm watching and going, well, 323 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: that works. 324 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 2: Team's not good. That works. 325 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: Like everybody in that New York Giants building knows Daniel 326 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: Jones can't play. Like I'm watching the other night. Those 327 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: turnovers are the exact same turnovers four years ago. And 328 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 1: this is what I think fans don't understand. Davile didn't 329 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 1: want it. The GM tried to move up. They are 330 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: completely completely trapped by their owner, John Morris. Want to 331 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: make Daniel Jones work, but I'm watching him with two picks, 332 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 1: bad throws from his end zone and I'm thinking, I 333 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: don't need to see anything else. I want the kid 334 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: to see seed. But it's it's like Sam Darnold. I 335 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 1: love Sam, but he will throw an atrocious pick in 336 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: every game he's ever played, and I mean the optics 337 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: of it are one of those jaw droppingly the f 338 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: was that Sam yeah, you know, I've talked about this. 339 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: Brady through two hundred plus interceptions, very few are memorably 340 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 1: awful in his entire career. Sam gives you one every 341 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 1: Sunday minimum. The Giant situation, are they in the running? 342 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: Do you think for the number one pick? Because Beck's 343 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: getting picked the Georgia quarterbacks getting picked number one? 344 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 3: I would think there would be a worse team than them, 345 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 3: because I do think their defense could be pretty solid, 346 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 3: and we've seen day Ball just field competitive teams. I 347 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 3: mean even last year with Devido, they had some moments 348 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 3: like are they likely to finish finish fifth than one? 349 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 3: To be one? Overall? I think the Patriots have that 350 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,239 Speaker 3: written all over them. Yes, I mean written all. 351 00:17:58,400 --> 00:17:59,679 Speaker 2: I think the Raiders are up there. 352 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 3: I mean anytime you named Gardner Minshew your starting quarterback. 353 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 3: I have some concerns. I think the Giants got a 354 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 3: couple one. Is it crazy? And I understand it was 355 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 3: only year one for these guys, but if they truly 356 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 3: didn't want Daniel Jones or just pay in the contract 357 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,439 Speaker 3: for Joe Shane and Brian day Ball to be like 358 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 3: you either fire us or you let us do this, 359 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,919 Speaker 3: or is that just like I understand these jobs are 360 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 3: hard to get, but they had just made the playoffs. 361 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 3: If they if he does fire him, that he can't. 362 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 3: So they had to be on board a little bit, 363 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:34,679 Speaker 3: you know. And even if you watch that Hard Knocks, 364 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 3: he keeps going, I want to see what we got. 365 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 3: I want to see what we got. We know what 366 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 3: you have. You have an Alex Smith who wants to 367 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 3: play like he's Patrick Mahomes. Yeah, you know. And that's 368 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 3: the thing with Darnold the pick he throws down the sideline, 369 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 3: you know, Daniel Jones does. Stingley's gonna become the best 370 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 3: corner in the league. I know everyone loves Sauce Gardner 371 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 3: because of his name, and he's a good player. Stingley's 372 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 3: more talented, and it's to me would be the guy 373 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,120 Speaker 3: that every GM in the league picks. If you got 374 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 3: to choose between the two of them, that's no shot 375 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 3: at saws. That's the Stingley Guy's got a chance to 376 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 3: be very very special. You have to miss that deep. 377 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 3: But he doesn't have a huge arm. And this is 378 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 3: where the team building thing. Who do they draft? Will 379 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 3: they draft like this explosive Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson player 380 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 3: who doesn't even fit with them with the number seven 381 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 3: overall pick. So you're just the team building's out of whack, 382 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 3: the quarterback sisitions out of whack. And this is what 383 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 3: the Giants have been since they fired Tom Coughlin and 384 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 3: he stormed off that podium. You know when John Marr, 385 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 3: remember how awkward it was when he gave his goodbye 386 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,120 Speaker 3: and it was and listen, it was the right thing 387 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 3: to do. But they have been a disaster since they've 388 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 3: run through the Joe Judges, the Pat Shermers, David Gettleman 389 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 3: like it's they're not gonna be any good this year. 390 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 3: And I thought, you know, maybe they'll be better in Washington. 391 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 3: You watch Daniel Jones. I mean, they can lose to 392 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,919 Speaker 3: anyone at any moment, by any margin because he just 393 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 3: can't implode and Saquan ain't there to save the day anymore. 394 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:05,400 Speaker 1: Throw another shrimp on the Barbie get in on UFC 395 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: three oh five Live from the Land down Under.

But 429 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: I and I started naming quarterbacks to my friend and 430 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 1: I said, and I want you to consider everything work, ethic, focus, health, mobility, 431 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: everything is Aaron Rodgers. Because I'm gonna give you a 432 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 1: take care. Is Aaron Rodgers as good as mahomes Alan 433 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: and Lamar He's not. No, I don't think he'll be 434 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: as good this year as Burrow or Herbert with Harbaugh. 435 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: I don't think he moves as well or as his 436 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: healthy as C. J. Stroud Stafford. And I'll make this 437 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,400 Speaker 1: argument all day. If Aaron has a clunker this year 438 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: and Stafford gets to a super Bowl, You're going to 439 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: start looking at those two careers differently. Stafford was a 440 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: hell of a lot better in high school, college, and 441 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: the first four years in the pros, and he's going 442 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 1: to be better late. If he crushes the next two years, 443 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: you start going down quarterback and. 444 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 2: Say who's better. 445 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 1: Aaron doesn't, isn't quite as committed. He has a below 446 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: average offensive coordinator in Matt Hackett. That's been established the 447 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: offensive lines in flux fingers crossed, but it's not elite. 448 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: He has a defensive coach Aaron has become over the 449 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 1: course of the last half dozen years. He'll lead the 450 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 1: NFL in like throwaways, Like if he does like the 451 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: play call, Aaron's not taking the arrows, He'll throw it 452 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 1: out of bounce. He did that, as you know with 453 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: McCarthy the last two years. You know with lafleur he 454 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: may live out of the play. He wasn't disgusted with it. 455 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: He was with the McCarthy. He will be with Matt Hackett. 456 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,400 Speaker 1: And so I was just saying to somebody, I said, 457 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: in the NFC, I viewed him differently. I said, I 458 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 1: look in the AFC right now, I don't think he's 459 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 1: a top I don't think he's a top six quarterback 460 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 1: in the AFC. 461 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 2: And my take. 462 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 1: Is, is it possible that the weakness of the Jets. 463 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: If Garrett Wilson and Breese Hall stay upright, they're both 464 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: the elite. They're both really special. We may look in 465 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: week twelve and think Aaron's not as good as Jordan 466 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: Love or now Trevor Lawrence or josh or Lamar or 467 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: Burrow or and we say he's like the eleventh best 468 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: quarterback in the league, and the defense is great. Wilson 469 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: and Breesehall are crushing. Smith gives you twelve starts, the 470 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,439 Speaker 1: rookie from Penn States better than we think, and we 471 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 1: look up hot take and go, shit, Aaron's closer to 472 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 1: Dak than Mahomes. 473 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 3: Well, he's forty years old. One thing I've noticed on 474 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 3: the NFL network, and it's hard because he doesn't play 475 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 3: any of these preseason games. I think he's moving slow, 476 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 3: you know, so why every clip I see it's like 477 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,679 Speaker 3: he looks like the forty five year old guy if 478 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 3: you just went to the gym you see kind of 479 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 3: jogging around shooting hoops. That's what he looks like. And 480 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,880 Speaker 3: that's a little concerning because that's never how he's played. Now. 481 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 3: If he just morphs his game into playing like Peyton 482 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 3: he had or Brady he has the arm to function 483 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 3: like that. Then it gets to the question mark, well, 484 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 3: he's never had to play like that. If his offensive 485 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 3: line they get a couple injuries, all of a sudden, 486 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 3: he's kind of moving for his life. But he can't 487 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 3: run around. What's the problem with Russell Wilson that not 488 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 3: quite as fast? Still thinks he can scramble? Well can't. 489 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 3: It's much easier for Caleb. Why he's way younger and 490 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 3: he's still fast. So you watch these guys kind of 491 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 3: scramble around. Some guys can't, some guys can. I just 492 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 3: think he's such a polarizing individual. It's gonna get weird fast. 493 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 3: You got Monday night against the Niners. What if you 494 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 3: go in there, you get your teeth kicked in all 495 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 3: of a sudden, it's like, oh, here we go again. 496 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,679 Speaker 3: I don't like I mean, listen, Robert Saala is a 497 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 3: nice guy. He's been completely over his head. Yeah, you know, 498 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 3: of just being able to handle a star told me something. 499 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 3: Aaron's like, what the hell is what's he talking about? 500 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 3: That's just that's stuff that like Mike McCarthy doesn't you 501 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 3: you know, just knows how to handle Yeah. I mean, 502 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 3: I just think that if his mobility is gone and 503 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 3: not gone where he can't move at all, like Tom 504 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 3: Brady at forty five. But he used to be you know, 505 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 3: seven and a half eight out of ten and now 506 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 3: it's more like five ish, and he's less hesitant to 507 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 3: do it once he realizes I'm not as quick. That 508 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 3: changes the player dramatically. Yes, And you're looking at, like 509 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:51,199 Speaker 3: you said, the influx of new young quarterbacks. You know, 510 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 3: let's use brock Purty as an example. One thing he 511 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 3: can do is scramble around. He moves well, and that 512 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 3: is the modern day football. You have to be able 513 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 3: to move. Because we talked about the the talent coming 514 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 3: in the league. Well, there hasn't been a lot of 515 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 3: Trent Williams come in the league and Larry Allen's over 516 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 3: the last five ten years, but there has been a 517 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,400 Speaker 3: lot of defensive lines. So you're at a disadvantage most 518 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 3: games where they got more good defensive linemen than you 519 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 3: do offensive lineman. That's why these quarterbacks being able to 520 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 3: scramble around can save you. Well, if that's gone for him, 521 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 3: with the lack of offensive ingenuity that's in that building. 522 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 3: From a coaching standpoint, what is it argue they could 523 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 3: be screwed relative to the expectation that he's back and 524 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 3: going to save the day. 525 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,199 Speaker 1: Also, I remember as a kid, I got into a 526 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:38,120 Speaker 1: motorcycle accident, ripped up. I still have a scar from it. Huh, 527 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: Honda one fifty or something. You know, it was pretty ugly, 528 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 1: and I can remember it took me two years before 529 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 1: somebody finally said, dude, you got to get on that. 530 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: A neighborhood dad said, you gotta get on that bike. Kid, 531 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 1: You just got to get You gotta crash again. And 532 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 1: that always sticks in my head that if if you 533 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: get hurt doing something, just you got to get back 534 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: in there. Brady acknowledges the first year back from his injury, 535 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: he didn't want to get he didn't want anybody near 536 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 1: his knees. He got prickly. He would bark at officials. 537 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 1: Are we not acknowledging Aaron is going to be affected 538 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: by that? Like Aaron probably deep down feels like he 539 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: disappointed the city taking four snaps though it wasn't his fault. 540 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: So you've got an aging player, a player that is 541 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: going to be hyper sensitive to that, an offensive coordinator 542 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,399 Speaker 1: you can't trust. I just I think we look at 543 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 1: the Jets and think Aaron will save us. In my 544 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 1: take is no, Actually I trust their defense. I think 545 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson is really good. Breese Hall, I think the 546 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: on line will kind of figure it out. I'm just saying, 547 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: I think we're going to look up at Thanksgiving and 548 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 1: like Aaron sometimes is a weakness. 549 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 3: I haven't had a chance to read the book or 550 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 3: blisten to the audiobook yet. Obviously there's a lot coming 551 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 3: out about that family moment at the Tahoe golf tournament 552 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 3: where he saw his dad, And obviously there's two sides 553 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 3: to every story. You know, who knows maybe if the 554 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 3: parents are whack jobs and it's not as much on Aaron, 555 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 3: which it kind of feels like that might be, is 556 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 3: not as crazy as on Aaron side. But regardless, isn't 557 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 3: it a pretty consistent theme over the last however many years, 558 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,399 Speaker 3: the quarterback and the family relationship. You look at Peyton 559 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 3: and Tom, obviously their families are very very close. Caleb's 560 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,919 Speaker 3: tight with his you know, Russell and his family. You 561 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 3: just go around the league, Patrick Mahomes and his family, 562 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 3: Lamar's moms, his agent. Yeah, I mean, it's that's strained, 563 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 3: like I saw some craziness when I was a kid 564 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 3: with some you know, extended family. That's hard on any 565 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 3: human I don't care who it is. It wears on you. 566 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 3: Even if you're right or they're right, it doesn't even 567 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 3: matter after a while. It's just that lack of you 568 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 3: only have so many people in your life that when 569 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 3: you grow up and that relationship with your brothers and 570 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 3: sisters and your parents, you remove that. I can't even imagine. 571 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 3: I can't relate to that because I the relationship i'd 572 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 3: had with my dad's past now, but my dad, my mom, 573 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 3: my brother, that seems like hard to overcome in certain 574 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 3: moments of just to gain some levity in life, just 575 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 3: a game like hey, I need to talk to somebody, 576 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 3: not even about something serious. That's that's an underrated part. 577 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 3: And I think a lot of people sarcastically mock and 578 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 3: stuff I'm talking about as a human being, you know. 579 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 3: And I wonder if that situation, I mean, he sees 580 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 3: his dad at that tournament and goes up to him. 581 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 3: I mean, that's what a fucking awkward thing they got 582 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 3: going on. 583 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so. 584 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: I want the Errand thing was a mild take because 585 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 1: I do think most people realize these young quarterbacks are sensational, 586 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 1: They move better than Aaron, better health, many have offensive coaches. 587 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 1: If I had a take, and I know you know 588 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: I've used this example before, John, and you, as a 589 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,959 Speaker 1: scout probably know this better than anybody I've talked about before. 590 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: Seahawk Camp was in Cheenie, Washington, where I went to college, 591 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 1: and I've talked about before. Seeing Eugene Robinson from Colgate 592 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 1: his first practice with the Seahawks and literally knowing, I mean, 593 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: I had people around me and I could name them. 594 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: I went to college with him, saying, holy shit, he 595 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: is lighting up Steve Largent, who is that colegate who? 596 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 1: At that time, I don't even know if I'd ever 597 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 1: seen an IVY League game on TV. You know this 598 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 1: is back in like nineteen eighty two. It doesn't take 599 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 1: long to see certain things. Right. Here's here's a take. 600 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 1: Bon Nicks has got a better arm than I think 601 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: people think. I think he's more cut and athletic than 602 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 1: people think. I noticed this when I saw him live 603 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 1: on the field against Utah. That game everything went Oregon's way. 604 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 1: And I know it's preseason, John, but I've watched bon 605 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: Nicks and I'm like, oh shit, Caleb defensive coach, Drake Made, 606 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 1: defensive coach Jaden, defensive coach JJ McCarthy, Hurt Pennix may 607 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: not play hot take bow Knicks is the best quarterback 608 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: this year out of the crop. 609 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 3: I think Caleb will be better because of what he's 610 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 3: dealing with. But I think bo Nicks is going to 611 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 3: shut a lot of people up really fast. I mean, 612 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 3: it's already inevitable. He's started for week one, He's got 613 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 3: a coach. I would say, who a well established, very 614 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 3: rich guy who's already won a Super Bowl, who kind 615 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 3: of has this like back against the wall chip on 616 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 3: his shoulder right now? Yeah, because that year last year 617 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 3: was probably not fun and is anything good? I would 618 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 3: say nothing has a chance to age better faster than 619 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 3: boot and Russell out for eighty million dollars in selecting 620 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 3: this guy. And let's face it, leading up to the draft, 621 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 3: before he inevitably picked him, everyone was going, Oh, Sean 622 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 3: Payton wants the bow Knicks. That's tarot, that's awful. You 623 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 3: can't drap this guy that high. This is crazy, this 624 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 3: is stupid, and it's like, now, I mean, this guy 625 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 3: has a pretty good idea. He was one of the 626 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 3: rare guys that was all in on mahomes. He like 627 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 3: Drew Brees once upon a time when not everyone was 628 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 3: lining at the door, you know. So I would say 629 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 3: that you have an offensive coach is just a huge 630 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 3: advantage and a guy that can develop quarterbacks and a 631 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 3: guy who can call the place. To me, my biggest 632 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 3: thing is not offensive and defensive coaches. It's do you 633 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 3: call the place? Do you dictate fifty percent of the game. 634 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 3: And obviously, as an offensive coach, not only are you 635 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 3: calling the place, you're controlling the quarterback then essentially and 636 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 3: the pace of the game. You know, defense is much 637 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 3: more physicality, there's stuff out of your control. Even great 638 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 3: defense gets speed sometime. But as an offensive play caller, 639 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 3: you can completely control the game. And beside that couple 640 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 3: of year stretch which was bad when they I think 641 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 3: Rob Ryan was their defensive coordinator in New Orleans and 642 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 3: they were going seven to nine even though their offense 643 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 3: was setting records. When they've had good defenses, they dominated. 644 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 3: You know, they were consistent ten to twelve win team 645 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 3: in the NFL. That's what Sean Payton's record. It is 646 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 3: when the defense is solid. So their defense a solid, 647 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 3: which it was the second half of last year. And 648 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 3: clearly I think removing Russell Wilson and this is why 649 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 3: I'm out on the Steelers. That thing that you take 650 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 3: in is more than just that miss third down throw. 651 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 3: It's all this other stuff, which, in fairness, I don't 652 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 3: know how much Russell brings it. It's just there now, 653 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 3: it's just part of the deal. And you remove that, 654 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 3: you get this young hungry guy, you get this chip 655 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 3: on the shoulder coach the Raiders naming Gardner Minshew that 656 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 3: they're not going to be any good. The Chargers just 657 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,959 Speaker 3: gonna have some injury problems and their depth is going 658 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 3: to be very questionable. Is it crazy to think Denver 659 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 3: could finish second in this division? No, he clearly likes 660 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 3: this team. They like their rookie class. They got some 661 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 3: good wide receivers. Watching them play, I mean, I don't 662 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 3: think it's inconceivable they go nine to eight. 663 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 1: Boon Nicks played with Troy Franklin. Troy average one hundred 664 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: and five yards per game, fourteen touchdowns. Shit, they played 665 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: together in college. Like, think about this, He's twenty four, 666 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 1: Drake May's twenty one offensive coach I think between Mims, Cortland, 667 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: Sutton and Troy Franklin, they have a good tight end, 668 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:09,760 Speaker 1: two capable backs. I'm like, that's that's at least averaged 669 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: the slightly above average. I mean, look at Dallas Cowboys. 670 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 1: They're completely dependent on Ceedee lambstaying healthy or they're screwed. 671 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 1: So to me, I look at Denver and I'm like, 672 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 1: every single year it was Houston. Last year, there's a 673 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 1: pop team and I'm watching bow Nicks and I've had 674 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 1: a couple of texts with Sean Payton. It's not lost 675 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 1: on me that a former NFL quarterback that I was 676 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:34,879 Speaker 1: talking to in the building at Fox several months ago 677 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:40,840 Speaker 1: said just remember Drake, Caleb and Jaden have defensive coaches. 678 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: He goes, I don't care how talented they are. And 679 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: this guy came into the league years ago and had 680 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 1: a defensive coach. He said, it matters like you're nervous, 681 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,320 Speaker 1: you don't you you know he said a defensive coach. 682 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,399 Speaker 1: I mean, Mark Sanchez told me years and years ago, 683 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, the reality is an offense of coach. 684 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: You talk at night, you text, you know, your texting. 685 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 1: Defensive coaches think differently. Their buddies are defensive coaches. Their 686 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 1: favorite players are Belichick's favorite player is Lawrence Taylor. It's 687 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 1: not Tom Brady. So I think I just think Denver 688 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 1: is better. PFF has their personnel near the bottom of 689 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 1: the league, and I'm like, ah, I don't. 690 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 3: Know wide Peyton Manning love Adam Gase because he could 691 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 3: text him at one o'clock in the morning and he 692 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 3: texts him right back, maybe talking football. These offensive guys 693 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:30,839 Speaker 3: I saw with Andy Reid sleeps like three hours a night. 694 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 3: He's just in the whiteboard. Just these guys. It's like 695 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 3: a creative The mentality is it's night and day. Different. 696 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:41,840 Speaker 3: Now some of the defensive guys are just such natural leaders. 697 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 3: The aggressiveness kind of it's a different personality. But yeah, 698 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,400 Speaker 3: I mean, I think the offensive play caller is the 699 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 3: number one guy you'd ever want running, especially in this 700 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 3: modern day football. But who are the options for pop teams? Right? 701 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 3: It have to be a team an on an AFC 702 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 3: West team, right, not the Chiefs, So it'd be the Raiders, 703 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 3: the Chargers of the Broncos. I think most people are 704 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,280 Speaker 3: out on the Raiders when you watch their quarterback situation. 705 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 3: Listen I'm a Jim Harbad die hard, but they just 706 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:15,719 Speaker 3: got a ton of injuries. They got a guys that 707 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 3: have always injured. That makes me nervous. Their quarterback just 708 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 3: got out of a boot. The Jets, who we talked about, 709 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 3: I would say, are pretty uh, are walking a very 710 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 3: very tight line. They could shatter in front of our 711 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 3: eyes immediately. The Steelers I got coming back to Earth. 712 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 3: They were already a playoff team. The same with the 713 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 3: same with the Cleveland Browns because their quarterback situation just 714 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 3: scares the crap out of me. I think it's wide 715 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 3: open for a team like the Broncos to kind of 716 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:46,879 Speaker 3: sneak up on. 717 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:47,760 Speaker 2: People, for sure. 718 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 1: So it's twenty twenty four, and let's talk about something 719 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:56,240 Speaker 1: really really important. If you're ever injured, check out Morgan 720 00:36:56,280 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: and Morgan. It's America's largest injury law firm and they 721 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 1: are there for you. Over one hundred offices nationwide.

Belichick didn't 740 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: do it. And we talk a lot about the Chiefs. 741 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 1: We talk about Mahomes and Brady, right, Brady's going to 742 00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 1: be more productive, but Mahomes is more talented and increasing 743 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:21,439 Speaker 1: in production. But I want to talk about Andy Reid 744 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:26,399 Speaker 1: and Belichick. Andy Reid wins a third straight Super Bowl. 745 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 1: Belichick never did it. Andy Reid two teams to a 746 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Belichick didn't do it. Andy Reid had to 747 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 1: face for the first fifteen to twenty years of his 748 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:45,720 Speaker 1: coaching career, a league that allowed Belichick's favorite rules to exist, 749 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 1: Yet Andy still flourished five NFC championship. The minute the 750 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: league pivoted to offense and Brady left, Belichick is it's Jurassic. 751 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:01,160 Speaker 1: He is completely tone deaf. And my take is we've 752 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:05,240 Speaker 1: always felt there's Belichick and Shula. Andy wins at third straight. 753 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 1: Andy's Super Bowl Philadelphia, Kansas City. Andy's won with terrible quarterbacks. 754 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:16,840 Speaker 1: Andy's one with everybody. Andy's assistants are better. Andy's the 755 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 1: one coach that gave Belichick real problems. Go look at 756 00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:27,320 Speaker 1: their record. I think that Andy Reid Belichick gap gets 757 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:32,320 Speaker 1: really thin, really thin. And if we're going to be fair, 758 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:37,840 Speaker 1: the league pivoted offense seven years ago, about seven eight, 759 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:42,359 Speaker 1: You're like, I mean everything now, it's go look at 760 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:48,839 Speaker 1: Belichick's last seven drafts, last four seasons. I again, I'm 761 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 1: not confusing it. I think Belichick is a better coach 762 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 1: than Shula, and Shula has more wins. It's not all 763 00:39:55,320 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 1: just on record. Andy Reid is good with everybody at quarterback. 764 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:04,160 Speaker 1: I think the gap closes. I think it gets really 765 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 1: close if he knocks down three straight super Bowl why. 766 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 3: I'd say it's been closing dramatically fast over the last 767 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,959 Speaker 3: two years, as he's knocked these last two off. Right, 768 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,839 Speaker 3: I'm torn on this because I'm an Andy Reid guy, 769 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 3: but I am a Belichick defender of Like, we know 770 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 3: what we watched. We watched him out coach everyone for 771 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 3: eighteen years and then clues Andy beat him in a 772 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,479 Speaker 3: Super Bowl. Now he had Brady, he had McNab. That's 773 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:31,879 Speaker 3: the gap there's pretty wide. And he did beat him 774 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 3: Mahomes first year on the road in that AFC championship 775 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 3: game that went overtime. That was one of the better 776 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:41,720 Speaker 3: games the Patriots ever played in. But you could argue 777 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,360 Speaker 3: if to me, if Andy wins won more, the ability 778 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 3: to coach every type quarterback, absolutely, and like you said, 779 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 3: and win pretty big. I mean, he was consistently going 780 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,280 Speaker 3: to the playoffs with Alex Smith, no problem, right, winning 781 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 3: with Donovan McNabb, who had some serious flaws. Belichick could 782 00:40:57,040 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 3: not only coach or have success with one guy. That 783 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 3: guy was wired like a defensive guy. You could just 784 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:05,960 Speaker 3: dog cuss them, you could scream at him. That's not 785 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:09,280 Speaker 3: really the way most quarterbacks handle. And you put anyone 786 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,760 Speaker 3: else in that place it gets a little weird really fast, 787 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 3: where I think Andy's personality is much more tailored to quarterbacks, 788 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 3: which have always been the name of the game. Right, 789 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,200 Speaker 3: So Bill just got pretty lucky. He just got this 790 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 3: rare bird that was wired more like Mike Vrabel or 791 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 3: Teddy Bruski could just take it. Most quarterbacks were not 792 00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:30,680 Speaker 3: taking that type of abuse. So why every article that 793 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 3: was ever written about any backup quarterback that sat next 794 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 3: to Tom said, this is the craziest thing I've ever seen. 795 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 3: The way that he takes this. It's like it terrified 796 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 3: everyone else because if mahomes ainc again, it doesn't mean 797 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:43,799 Speaker 3: you can't coach a guy hard or push a guy. 798 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 3: But they treated everyone as equals when they're not equals. 799 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 3: Joe Montana, John Elway, Peyton Manning, they weren't equals in 800 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,919 Speaker 3: the room and the room knows it. But Belichick's thing, 801 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,799 Speaker 3: to me could have only worked with Tom. It's why 802 00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 3: they were the perfect marriage, one of the great sports 803 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 3: marriages of all time. Yeah, Andy can date anybody. If 804 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 3: you gave Andy any of the top let's just say, 805 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,480 Speaker 3: fifteen quarterbacks in the NFL. I'm not saying the Chiefs 806 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 3: win the super Bowl. You gave him like Josh Allen, 807 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 3: they'd win the Super Bowl. Joe Burrow Lamar would be fun. 808 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,760 Speaker 3: I think he could just take like Dak, you random 809 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 3: guys and they would have eleven to twelve wins. Now, 810 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 3: they may lose in a playoff game because that guy's 811 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 3: not good enough, but he would be a lock for 812 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:26,400 Speaker 3: the playoffs. And I don't think you could say that 813 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 3: about Bill as the years went on rotating just take 814 00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:31,839 Speaker 3: give me, give him Dak Prescott, He's a lock to win. 815 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 3: I don't feel that way. So that's Andy's trump card 816 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,839 Speaker 3: in this modern day football. It ain't even close right, 817 00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 3: his ability to do offense and quarterback Bill couldn't. That's 818 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 3: why I think a lot of people were off Bill. Now, 819 00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 3: it'll be very fascinating to watch how this offseason or 820 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:51,520 Speaker 3: this season goes with Bill playing this new role. I 821 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:55,239 Speaker 3: would say Bill is very dependent on one individual over 822 00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 3: the last fifteen years, and that was Josh McDaniels. When 823 00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 3: he had Josh and Josh available, you're getting a package deal. 824 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 3: And once you hire Bill and Josh, well, no one's 825 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:07,320 Speaker 3: ever hiring Josh to be a head coach ever. Again, 826 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:11,240 Speaker 3: right in the NFL maybe in college, but so maybe 827 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,799 Speaker 3: Bill has that going for him. But yeah, I mean this, 828 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 3: I don't even think it's remotely close. And I think 829 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 3: Mahome is a good example of like, the guy that 830 00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,600 Speaker 3: we see now is so much different than the guy 831 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 3: we saw early on the way they've coached him, the 832 00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 3: way he's changed. And just if you can't coach the quarterbacks, 833 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 3: I mean he put now Andy put Wan Castillo's defensive 834 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 3: coordinator when I was there. Everyone makes mistakes, yeah, but 835 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 3: to put Matt Patricia as your offensive coordinator really the 836 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 3: second year coach is one of the most insane things 837 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:45,800 Speaker 3: ever and first great as Belichick's resume is, that's like 838 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 3: an all time stain. Yea. To me, that's a bigger 839 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,440 Speaker 3: stay than like the Flate gate or any of that 840 00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:50,239 Speaker 3: other crap. 841 00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:50,239 Speaker 2: You know. 842 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 1: I mean, there are these there are these moments. I mean, 843 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 1: every great actor Brando had six bombs. 844 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:01,040 Speaker 3: Danira, they all do right, But there. 845 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,600 Speaker 1: Are moves over the last three to four years with 846 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 1: Belichick that I can't unsee, and the Matt Patricia thing 847 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:11,600 Speaker 1: and the five six straight. I mean, there are drafts 848 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 1: where they don't have a single good player. It stains 849 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 1: how I look at Bill and how the beginning, and 850 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:23,400 Speaker 1: any great movie starts great and finishes strong. Bill's ending 851 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:25,760 Speaker 1: is a catastrophe. 852 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 3: Think about this too. I do think it's a little 853 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 3: weird that this Bill was like this ultimate dictator. You 854 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:36,320 Speaker 3: don't get it wrong, Like you're in the building with Andy, 855 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:40,000 Speaker 3: like he's the boss, but he interacts clearly a little 856 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,480 Speaker 3: different because look at his resume of like Doug Peterson 857 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 3: was the right hand guy won a Super Bowl. Matt 858 00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 3: Naggie they claim was a disaster, took the Bears in 859 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:50,840 Speaker 3: the playoffs. Ron Rivera took the Paranthers to the Super Bowl. 860 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 3: Andy guy John Harbaugh turned out to be pretty good. 861 00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:56,920 Speaker 3: Like why do Andy's guys just function pretty well? And 862 00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:01,160 Speaker 3: Bill's guys football coaching is a hard and every guy's 863 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:03,799 Speaker 3: gonna lose, have a bad season, maybe get You're gonna 864 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,360 Speaker 3: get fired eventually, his guys get run out of the 865 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 3: building in record speed. Yeah, I mean Joe Judge immediately 866 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 3: like the same organ. Josh McDaniels couldn't even make it 867 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 3: through the second year after like ten years to a 868 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:19,920 Speaker 3: step back, Patricia, whatever the hell happened in Detroit? I mean, 869 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,400 Speaker 3: at all times, couldn't get along with Stafford, Oh my god. Yeah. 870 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,640 Speaker 3: So and these are his core guys. Like when you 871 00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 3: think Bill of the last fifteen years, Pat Brian Flores 872 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:33,759 Speaker 3: couldn't get along with a soul on offense, hate his 873 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:37,399 Speaker 3: interactions with the quarterback because that's what they saw. Think 874 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,279 Speaker 3: about that, that's what those guys saw. So defensive guys 875 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,440 Speaker 3: scream at the quarterback. You're like, this ain't gonna work. 876 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:43,719 Speaker 3: That ain't Tom Brady. 877 00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 2: Success or failure. 878 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:49,920 Speaker 1: All of Andy Reid's guys are guys you'd love to 879 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:53,960 Speaker 1: have a beer with. They're good dudes, well liked. Go 880 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:57,440 Speaker 1: to Bill's Charlie Wise, Joe Judge, he just ran on 881 00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:00,239 Speaker 1: He just ran on Twitter about getting fired from Serious saying, 882 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:02,919 Speaker 1: I was like, Charlie, what's going on here? Almost all 883 00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:06,640 Speaker 1: of Bill's guys, Eric Mangini's an exception, Almost all of 884 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 1: them there are a lot of work. Like if they 885 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 1: were in the building, you'd avoid them. They're harsh, they're intense, 886 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:18,600 Speaker 1: they're arrogant. Bill is attracted to that quality, that sort 887 00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:22,560 Speaker 1: of pseudo confidence, arrogance. Andy's guys, Matt n Aggie used 888 00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,880 Speaker 1: to call me, Hey, thanks for saying nice stuff. You know, 889 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,959 Speaker 1: my kids listened this morning going to work, like Doug 890 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 1: Peterson's a great guy. They're all nice guys, and Andy 891 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:41,359 Speaker 1: is looking for people that Andy barks, So I think 892 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:44,799 Speaker 1: he looks for people psychologically that can comfort players when 893 00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:49,000 Speaker 1: he barks. Bill barks and doubles down on the barking. 894 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:52,920 Speaker 1: And that's why that's why the minute Brady leaves, free 895 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,840 Speaker 1: agents don't want to go there. Brandon Ayuk's like not 896 00:46:56,400 --> 00:47:00,840 Speaker 1: remotely interested in that culture Bill created. 897 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, to me, it was his culture was all dependent 898 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 3: on Tom. Once Tom established himself and go back to Walsh, 899 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:11,719 Speaker 3: like they could have pivoted way earlier to young and 900 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,960 Speaker 3: been fine, Like it wasn't dependent on one individual. I 901 00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,480 Speaker 3: just think that's an all time outlier situation what we 902 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:20,160 Speaker 3: saw because the way the quarterback could take it, none 903 00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:23,040 Speaker 3: of these other quarterbacks take it. It's why every single guy, 904 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:25,719 Speaker 3: to a man, the backup quarterbacks that all rotate around 905 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 3: the league were like, this is the craziest thing I've 906 00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 3: ever seen. And it's not like obviously there were a 907 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 3: small percentage of teams that just are really buttoned up, 908 00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 3: do it the right way. The Ravens, the Chiefs, the Patriots, 909 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:38,799 Speaker 3: like the gap of how they get ready isn't it. 910 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:42,240 Speaker 3: But the way that they treated the quarterback in front 911 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:45,480 Speaker 3: of the entire team didn't happen anywhere else because that's 912 00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:48,239 Speaker 3: not normal and you're never gonna see that away. And 913 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:50,359 Speaker 3: I understand why the Patriot guys defend it, Like if 914 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:52,759 Speaker 3: I was Edelman, I would defend it too, because they 915 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:56,840 Speaker 3: won a lot, but it wasn't sustainable. Once you remove 916 00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 3: the keycog, it you crumbled down. And I'm telling you 917 00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:02,919 Speaker 3: it's gonna get really ugly there. It's gonna get really 918 00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:06,040 Speaker 3: ugly there. That team rolling out Jacoby. I mean, Drake's 919 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 3: a major project. People are gonna be mad at Craft 920 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:13,879 Speaker 3: because everything he did to Bill, even obviously didn't end 921 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 3: well with Bill on the field, but you respect a 922 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:19,759 Speaker 3: guy that brought you so much. It's I think it's 923 00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 3: gonna be really bad. And you talk to like I 924 00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:24,800 Speaker 3: text around people in the league, they're like, buckle up, Phillis, 925 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:29,000 Speaker 3: it's gonna be ugly. And it's not like they're playing 926 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 3: in a division. I mean, the Bill's got a lot 927 00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:33,840 Speaker 3: of moving parts. Obviously they are the king of the division. 928 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 3: The Dolphins aren't great. The Jets could implode if you 929 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 3: told me they didn't win a divisional game, I'd believe you. 930 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:41,799 Speaker 2: All right. 931 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:49,239 Speaker 1: So Chris Peterson's gone, Nick Saban's gone, Jim Harbaugh's gone, 932 00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:53,319 Speaker 1: Dabo Sweeney is struggling with a transfer portal, and an 933 00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:57,080 Speaker 1: il Ryan Day is struggling defining what Ohio State is. 934 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 1: Take Kirby smart out. He's considered the best coach in 935 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:05,279 Speaker 1: college football. I think Kaylin de Boor's really close. And 936 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:07,120 Speaker 1: you'll the rest of the country will see that what 937 00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 1: Husky fans know. It's really interesting. And this is why 938 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 1: you can't give up on people. I could make an 939 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 1: argument the third best coach in college football is Lane Kiffen, 940 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:22,480 Speaker 1: and this sport bailed on him. Old miss has no 941 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: business being as good as they are. I mean, let's 942 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:28,680 Speaker 1: be honest. The state produces, I mean, how many players. 943 00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 1: They can't get many, and Georgia gets the best in Georgia, 944 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:34,560 Speaker 1: Bama gets the best in Bama. 945 00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:38,319 Speaker 2: Florida. It's rated by everybody. He is. 946 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:40,439 Speaker 1: That state's only got three and a half like million people. 947 00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:40,960 Speaker 2: It's Oregon. 948 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 1: It's got more players than Oregon. But generally speaking, most 949 00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 1: of these teams in the top ten come from highly 950 00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 1: populated states, fertile recruiting grounds. Is that people bail The 951 00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:55,920 Speaker 1: Raiders bailed on him, you know, college football bailed on him. 952 00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 1: And you start looking around and I'm like, and by 953 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:02,640 Speaker 1: the way, Sark somewhere in the top ten. He may 954 00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 1: not have the trophy yet, but recruiting, culture, building, quarterback development, 955 00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:10,200 Speaker 1: Sark knows what he's doing. He's won a lot of games. 956 00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:12,319 Speaker 1: Washington was zero to twelve when he took it over. 957 00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:15,680 Speaker 1: He had what they were seven wins second year, and 958 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:19,520 Speaker 1: he handed Chris Peterson some dudes, some NFL bodies. But 959 00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 1: I was thinking about that today. Take Kirby out and 960 00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:22,319 Speaker 1: Kaitlin to Bore. 961 00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:22,759 Speaker 2: We know it. 962 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:26,520 Speaker 1: You know, Urban's gone, Harbaugh's gone, Savan's gone, Chris Peterson's gone. 963 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:29,560 Speaker 1: All these guys. Dabbo is struggling with nil on the 964 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,640 Speaker 1: transfer portal. He's struggling with it. 965 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:32,840 Speaker 3: Well, he won't do it. He won't do it. 966 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:33,279 Speaker 2: He won't do. 967 00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:35,960 Speaker 1: Jesus and Ryan Day hired Chip Kelly, which I think 968 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 1: is brilliant because the hole in his game, which he acknowledges, 969 00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 1: is the run game. Ryan admits that, so he can't 970 00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:43,279 Speaker 1: put him as a top five coach now because he's 971 00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:48,040 Speaker 1: beating Perdue. It's you know, Lane Kiffin can coach his 972 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:49,279 Speaker 1: ass off, That's my take. 973 00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:51,719 Speaker 3: You know, one of the best stats I remember here 974 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,160 Speaker 3: in last year was Ole Miss has never had back 975 00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:57,239 Speaker 3: to back double digit seasons win seasons in the history 976 00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 3: of the program. Lane did it twenty two and twenty three, 977 00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:04,319 Speaker 3: and last year when he beat LSU. You're watching him going. 978 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 3: The talent gap on these two rosters can't be as 979 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:10,840 Speaker 3: close as what it looks like on the field. Obviously 980 00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:13,719 Speaker 3: he scares people, but to me, he's got one of 981 00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 3: the blue blood's, whether it's Florida, if they make a 982 00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:19,920 Speaker 3: change whoever. You know, there were rumors that I had 983 00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:22,800 Speaker 3: heard Oregon when Dan Lanning got it, he was really interested. 984 00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:25,680 Speaker 3: People just wouldn't touch him. You get to a point, though, 985 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:29,480 Speaker 3: I think, especially in college sports in the NFL, you 986 00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:32,920 Speaker 3: win enough, who cares, like, what are we even talking about? 987 00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:35,960 Speaker 3: And a lot of people think they're going to be 988 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 3: a top ten team. He crushed the transfer portal. Oh yeah, 989 00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:38,960 Speaker 3: good quarterback. 990 00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 991 00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 3: I do think there's a lot of pressure though. It's 992 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:45,160 Speaker 3: one of those where even if he wins eight or 993 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:49,200 Speaker 3: nine games and misses the playoffs, it's still a remarkable accomplishment. 994 00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:52,800 Speaker 3: You win ten eleven and then nine you're at ol Miss, 995 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,400 Speaker 3: not Ohio State, right, Like, I'm with you on Kalen Newbor. 996 00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:58,680 Speaker 3: He's a star. And don't be shocked when they're back 997 00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:02,799 Speaker 3: in the final fourth Alabama right away, Right, but you 998 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 3: should win at Alabama even if some guys leave, you're 999 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 3: still inheriting. Every single guy in that roster is someone 1000 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 3: that Nick had recruited. Right, you should win Ohio State. 1001 00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:14,400 Speaker 3: You obviously should win at USC, even Sark. It is 1002 00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:17,320 Speaker 3: to me much more impressive that they have an unlimited 1003 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:19,759 Speaker 3: checkbook to sign whoever they want, whenever they want. 1004 00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:19,880 Speaker 1: Now. 1005 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:21,840 Speaker 3: Sark had a good year last year, though kind of 1006 00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:24,439 Speaker 3: a little softened in the playoff game against Washington. It's 1007 00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:26,080 Speaker 3: way easier to win at Texas than it is at 1008 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:30,080 Speaker 3: Old Miss. Like Lane went to what Fai or Fui 1009 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:32,359 Speaker 3: or whatever that school was in Florida that no one 1010 00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:34,759 Speaker 3: could even get, right if I pulled random people that 1011 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 3: follow sports, and then to Old Miss, who usually runs 1012 00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:40,120 Speaker 3: through coaches every three or four years, and now he's 1013 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 3: kicking everyone's ass. He's beaten LSU. Yeah, I mean, I 1014 00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:47,680 Speaker 3: just think that it's it's easy to hire. I think 1015 00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:50,439 Speaker 3: part of what's worked against Lane. It's easy for USC 1016 00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:52,440 Speaker 3: to give one hundred million do to Lincoln like everyone's 1017 00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:55,279 Speaker 3: on board. It's easy when LSU gives ninety plus to 1018 00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:58,640 Speaker 3: Brian Kelly, like we see. I think it is controversial 1019 00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:02,600 Speaker 3: in some of these ads and whatever to hire Lane 1020 00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:05,279 Speaker 3: at this point in time. You're crazy if you do not. 1021 00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:07,359 Speaker 3: They're hiring these billion napiers and all these other guys. 1022 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:10,040 Speaker 3: Lanes werenning circles around them all. So, I mean, what 1023 00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:13,920 Speaker 3: he's doing at ole Miss now here's the thing. He's 1024 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:16,479 Speaker 3: getting paid nine ten million dollars there and they clearly 1025 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:17,919 Speaker 3: had a pretty good But does he need to leave? 1026 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:23,200 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I mean I think some of its lifestyle. 1027 00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:25,839 Speaker 1: He likes the South. He's told me that he likes 1028 00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:28,840 Speaker 1: the style. He loves fishing. He's an intense guy. He 1029 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:33,239 Speaker 1: likes it's he gets some space. People are nice, you know. 1030 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:36,799 Speaker 1: Lane's little cocky, unique personality. But I also think he's 1031 00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:39,480 Speaker 1: got a great heart and I think he's really I 1032 00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:42,799 Speaker 1: think he's really a good coach. I think sometimes when 1033 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:46,040 Speaker 1: dad's a coach, or dad's a broadcaster, or dad's a 1034 00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:50,759 Speaker 1: bank president, the Sun gets placed into a position he's 1035 00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 1: not quite ready for. And if it wasn't for Monnie Kiffin, 1036 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:56,399 Speaker 1: Lane probably doesn't get the raider job. 1037 00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:56,920 Speaker 2: We don't know. 1038 00:53:56,960 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 1: He's just another young assistant McVeigh, you know, like grandpa 1039 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:03,640 Speaker 1: or somebody was a general manager. That's different. 1040 00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:04,960 Speaker 2: It wasn't high profile. 1041 00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:08,760 Speaker 1: But I think one of the vagaries of having a famous, 1042 00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:11,120 Speaker 1: successful dad and if you go into the same industry 1043 00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:14,319 Speaker 1: is you tend to get inserted into places that eventually 1044 00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:17,200 Speaker 1: you are ahead of people and you will be successful. 1045 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:20,520 Speaker 1: But Lane was like kid coach, like thirty two years old, 1046 00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:23,200 Speaker 1: and it's and I can't remember when he went to USC. 1047 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:27,279 Speaker 1: He just wasn't he And I was rooting for him, 1048 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:30,720 Speaker 1: but he was a little loose with his private personal life. 1049 00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:35,480 Speaker 1: He just didn't quite know how to be a head 1050 00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:39,240 Speaker 1: coach at USC. Wasn't the play calling. But I think 1051 00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:42,760 Speaker 1: there is an advantage when dad or grandpa or somebody 1052 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,640 Speaker 1: ran the bank and you get into finance, there's an advantage. 1053 00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 1: But I look around college football now and in a 1054 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:51,200 Speaker 1: big game, I'm gonna tell you this, I would not 1055 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:54,439 Speaker 1: want to face Lang Kiffin. I think he's clever. He 1056 00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:56,480 Speaker 1: by the way, playing with house money at all. Miss 1057 00:54:56,560 --> 00:55:00,120 Speaker 1: He's he's like he has the talent of most the 1058 00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:02,800 Speaker 1: top six, but none of the pressure that an Ohio 1059 00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:04,320 Speaker 1: State does if they met in the playoff. 1060 00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:08,239 Speaker 3: I think one thing that is dramatically different about him 1061 00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:12,600 Speaker 3: is at USC he almost had like this angry, edgy 1062 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:17,160 Speaker 3: anti media being fun, and he's the complete opposite. Now 1063 00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:21,040 Speaker 3: he's just much more looser, especially in front of a camera. 1064 00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 3: He feels much more natural. Maybe he just embraced it. Listen, 1065 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 3: Jimmy Sexton and Nick Saban changed his life. He says 1066 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,279 Speaker 3: it as much right when he goes to Nick, and 1067 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:32,239 Speaker 3: I wonder if he saw Nick like, you can be 1068 00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:34,759 Speaker 3: this hard driving, kind of a hole coach on the 1069 00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,480 Speaker 3: field and kind of handle when the lights are on 1070 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:41,160 Speaker 3: with the media. Because you're in that business as an 1071 00:55:41,239 --> 00:55:44,400 Speaker 3: NFL coach. Your roster's your roster. You're not recruiting anyone 1072 00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 3: out there in college football. It's a little different. It's 1073 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,239 Speaker 3: why Nick, when the camera's on, kind of turns into 1074 00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:51,799 Speaker 3: a different guy. He has all these different kind of 1075 00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:54,880 Speaker 3: like characters he can play where I think Lane struggle 1076 00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:56,880 Speaker 3: with it now you watch him. I saw this clip 1077 00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:59,279 Speaker 3: on the internet the other day about he was on 1078 00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 3: with the SEC the network guys, and they were asking 1079 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,359 Speaker 3: about his dad and he's like, starts. You just got 1080 00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:06,160 Speaker 3: this emotional side of Lane. You have to remember Lane 1081 00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:10,080 Speaker 3: was a quarterback at Fresno State in the late nineties 1082 00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 3: who when Pat Hill recruited Billy Vollock and David Carr, 1083 00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:16,680 Speaker 3: they said, Lane, you're never gonna play her. Immediately just 1084 00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:19,440 Speaker 3: transitioned into being a coach with Jeff Tedford, who was 1085 00:56:19,440 --> 00:56:23,560 Speaker 3: the offensive coordinator. This guy transitioned at like twenty years 1086 00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:26,560 Speaker 3: old to being a coach. And like you said, to me, 1087 00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:30,160 Speaker 3: it is an advantage if you do like you're mentally 1088 00:56:30,360 --> 00:56:32,400 Speaker 3: or I would say mature enough to handle it. Like 1089 00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:35,400 Speaker 3: Kyle Shanahan. This guy went right into it. And to me, 1090 00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:37,880 Speaker 3: Kyle's much more serious in the sense of you're not 1091 00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 3: screwing around as much. Lane has some interests, I would 1092 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:44,960 Speaker 3: say outside the football building. I wonder if he just 1093 00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:47,600 Speaker 3: has corralled it all and got the right people around him. 1094 00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:50,320 Speaker 3: But his personality in front of the quote unquote media 1095 00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:53,719 Speaker 3: or when he's doing things with a camera on, to me, 1096 00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,520 Speaker 3: is dramatically different than the guy that we saw at USC, 1097 00:56:56,719 --> 00:56:58,959 Speaker 3: which I thought was part of his undoing. He wasn't 1098 00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 3: that likable? Isn't that a huge part of life? Like, 1099 00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:03,640 Speaker 3: if you're kind of likable, people root for you. Like 1100 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,080 Speaker 3: the Sam Pittman guy at Arkansas. I think he's not 1101 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:07,879 Speaker 3: very good, but everyone loves the guy. 1102 00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:12,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's like everybody's really friendly. Stepdad be hard to fire, 1103 00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:15,279 Speaker 1: you know. It's like the Freakonomics top To talked about that. 1104 00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,360 Speaker 1: I think it was Freakonomics was the book they talked 1105 00:57:17,360 --> 00:57:21,000 Speaker 1: about that the doctors that get sued aren't the bad doctors. 1106 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:25,960 Speaker 1: The doctors that get sued are often the most educated 1107 00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:29,640 Speaker 1: and the most successful doctors. They don't have good bedside manner. 1108 00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:35,040 Speaker 1: It's impossible to sue even the incompetent doctor you love, right, 1109 00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:37,840 Speaker 1: It's hard to fire somebody you really have great affection for. 1110 00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:41,400 Speaker 1: It's easy to sue the asshole surgeon that's screwed up 1111 00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:44,760 Speaker 1: during the surgery. Right. Like. So, I think as you 1112 00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:47,240 Speaker 1: become more likable, and let's be honest about this, my 1113 00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:50,240 Speaker 1: dad used to say this, you your employment will be 1114 00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:53,320 Speaker 1: based in rooms that you're not in. People will raise 1115 00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:56,320 Speaker 1: their hand, a boss will say, you know, raise your hand. 1116 00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:57,479 Speaker 1: Colin stays or goes. 1117 00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:58,720 Speaker 2: There's nine, you need five. 1118 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:01,480 Speaker 3: You have rid of middle cough, the room goes silent. 1119 00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:03,880 Speaker 2: Me and Logan have those meetings almost every other week. 1120 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:07,360 Speaker 1: There's a lot to be said with Lane is that 1121 00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:08,960 Speaker 1: when you're a little snarky and you go in a 1122 00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:11,960 Speaker 1: three game losing streak, or it's just much easier to 1123 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 1: get rid of guys that are. 1124 00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:15,480 Speaker 3: Pain Well, I'll give you a guy because in the 1125 00:58:15,600 --> 00:58:18,200 Speaker 3: NFL that only goes so far. If you're winning six 1126 00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:19,960 Speaker 3: to seven games, no matter how much they like you, 1127 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:21,840 Speaker 3: they run you out of town. Arthur Smith, I remember 1128 00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:25,880 Speaker 3: when they fired or Arthur Smith was fired by Arthur 1129 00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:27,919 Speaker 3: Blank and Arthur Blanks I love the guy. I didn't 1130 00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:29,600 Speaker 3: want to do it, but he just wasn't good enough. 1131 00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 3: I'm watching I was slipping around channels and watching Big 1132 00:58:32,320 --> 00:58:34,440 Speaker 3: ten Network. They had on Matt Ruhle. I'm like, ah, 1133 00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:36,800 Speaker 3: this guy's I see why this guy a good college coach. 1134 00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:39,440 Speaker 3: He's just kind of got a personality, can own the 1135 00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:42,680 Speaker 3: room when the camera's on, and you're like, I get it. 1136 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:45,560 Speaker 3: And I've heard he's not easy to play for. Yes, 1137 00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:48,919 Speaker 3: it can be really difficult. And they're the classic team 1138 00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:52,440 Speaker 3: of like they bring in this young hot shot quarterback, 1139 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:56,040 Speaker 3: and the expectations are high and it's usually hard to 1140 00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:58,040 Speaker 3: live up to those. All of a sudden, you win 1141 00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 3: seven eight games, people are maybe like we sneak into 1142 00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:06,320 Speaker 3: the playoffs. Week two is Nebraska hosting Colorado. I mean, 1143 00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:07,840 Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw the clip. I think 1144 00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:11,440 Speaker 3: it was yesterday or two days ago.
