Little schedule release night? I went 25 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: on with Colin. We dove deep onto several things, so 26 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: you can find that on YouTube or the podcast version. 27 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 1: I wanted to hit on a couple other things. I 28 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: want to go over the schedule of the Super Bowl teams, 29 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers and the Chiefs. I also wrote 30 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: down Green Bay schedule because I think there's something pretty 31 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: fascinating there when it comes to Jordan Love. Netflix is 32 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: now not just involved with the NFL this year for 33 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: the next year. They signed a deal. Get ready, buckle 34 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: up because this is where we're headed. And then just 35 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 1: some other schedule things that I saw on the interweb. 36 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 1: There's a lot flying around these teams that post the 37 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: schedule on Twitter or Instagram and use the color coding. 38 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: Call me an old man, but just write the team, 39 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: just do week one. It's like, is this home? I'm 40 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: having to scribble. It's a little complicated. I get it. 41 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: The videos are cool. I'm cool with long three minute 42 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 1: video doing fun stuff. But the actual picture of the 43 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,119 Speaker 1: schedule the color coded. It's hard to read the colors. 44 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: Just make it simple. This doesn't need to be that complicated. 45 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 1: But today's a good day. We know what's happening, when 46 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: it's happening, where it's happening, what time it's happening. I 47 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: guess we have some flexible games, but I am very 48 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: very excited.

I thought a lot about this because 65 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: at this point in time, only one team in the 66 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: NFL is truly like, if you don't win the Super Bowl, 67 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,119 Speaker 1: it's a really big letdown. And that's the Chiefs, right. 68 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: They've won three or five, they've been to four, they 69 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: have Mahomes, they have the best coach in the league. 70 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: It's just the season starts their fan base like, we're 71 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: gonna win the Super Bowl, and if you don't, it's 72 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: a pretty big letdown. No other team can say that. 73 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: I think the Eagles they've been to one, but they 74 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: changed their coaching staff around. The Cowboys haven't even been 75 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: to a conference championship game in twenty five years. The 76 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: Lions made their first conference championship game in who knows 77 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: how long, I think ninety two if memory serves me correct. 78 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: The Ravens, for as great as they are, like, let's 79 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 1: face it, Lamar's gonna have to do a little more 80 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. I think it's the forty nine ers, 81 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: like partly because their cores of guys highly paid their 82 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,479 Speaker 1: cap hits are gonna start kicking in this the last 83 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,679 Speaker 1: year of Perty's rookie deal. It's kind of all there. 84 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: It's gotta be now or never. They added a receiver 85 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,119 Speaker 1: they didn't trade deebo or Ayuk, Trent Williams is thirty five, 86 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan. All the talk, ever, is can he the 87 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: big one? Well? I've seen him win a lot of 88 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: big games. He's won like eight playoff games in his 89 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 1: forty nine er career. He just lost two super Bowls 90 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: and they've been devastating. But he's lost him to Andy 91 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: Reid and Patrick Mahomes. Who knows. Maybe they face off 92 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: again for the third time in like six years. That'd 93 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: be cool. Some people might say it wouldn't be cool 94 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: because we're ready for some new blood. But I looked 95 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: at the Niner schedule and one the Jets Niners is 96 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: a fantastic Week one Monday night football game. Like that's 97 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 1: e laite. It doesn't and I don't even know. I 98 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: think the Jets, if Aaron's healthy, eight nine wins. If 99 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: things get weird, they could be shitty again. But maybe 100 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: best case scenario ten. But Week one you give me 101 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. We saw it last year. I was glued 102 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: to the TV just like we all were for Aaron 103 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: Rodgers versus the Bills. I'm in that's a no brainer. 104 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: I would have gone Niners, Jets or Niners Cowboys if 105 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: they won. With the Jets, no issue. I think early 106 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: on in the Niner schedule, they can start fast and 107 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: to me, like there's gonna be pressure on this team 108 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: because the Brock Party thing. And here I've been saying 109 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: this forever about Brock Party. The conversation is not gonna change. 110 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: It wouldn't have changed if he would have won that 111 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, cause all the haters would be like, well, 112 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: see he can do it again. Can he continue to 113 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: do it? My stance is pretty clear he's good, but 114 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: like I think he's really good. But we just saw 115 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: Jared Goff get one hundred and seventy million dollars averaging 116 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: over fifty million dollars a year, Like that's kind of 117 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: the range. So like he's got to be really good 118 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: to feel good about giving that contract. The forty nine 119 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: Ers open with the Jets, then they go to Minnesota, 120 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: then they get the Rams, who Kyle Shanahan has owned 121 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: and then they get the Pats in Arizona. So like, 122 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: I think this team could start really fast. And when 123 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: I look at the forty nine Ers, to me, it's 124 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: between them the Lions. But I think that the NFC 125 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: North is gonna be pretty tough. I know I've heard 126 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: a lot of people talk about like the NFC West, 127 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: terms like Seattle could be a lot better. I don't 128 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: know if I'm really buying it. I think they got 129 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 1: a lot of good players, first time head coach. They 130 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: have an offensive coordinator that's never worked in the pros. 131 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: Loved him at Washington as an offensive coordinator. He's entering 132 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: a new realm. Their quarterback is Gino Smith, who great story, 133 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: easy guy to root for. But I'm sorry, before I 134 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: just put you in the playoffs with a brand new 135 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: coach and Gino Smith quarterback, I can't do it. There 136 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: are some people high on Sam Hal but the forty 137 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: nine Ers then get them on Thursday Night Football. They 138 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: do have a tough stretch, the Chiefs, the Cowboys. They 139 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: get a buy at Tampa, who I think is gonna 140 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: be pretty good. I think the forty Nineers gonna be 141 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: pretty damn good, just like I think a lot of 142 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: the teams that are really good last year are gonna 143 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: be good. I think Detroit's gonna be good. I think 144 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: the Packers are gonna be good. I think the Eagles 145 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: are gonna be consistently better than they were Cowboys to 146 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: me or the wild Card I talked about it with 147 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: Colin to me, one fascinating, Like there aren't question marks 148 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: with the Niners in terms of like this guy has 149 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: to prove this to do that. Like Kyle Shanahan's already 150 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: paid brock Purty in his mind. He fucking loves the guy. 151 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: I've been saying forever with Jordan Love is one right now, 152 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: if you gave him a three year, one hundred million 153 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: dollar contract extension, I don't think he would sign it. 154 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: He'd be like, how's he turning down that type money? Well, 155 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 1: he just saw Jared Goffet one hundred and seventy million 156 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: dollars and he goes, well, if I have a full 157 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: season and I played like I did at the end 158 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: of last year, at minimum, I'm getting something in that world. 159 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: So why would I sign a quote unquote team friendly deal? 160 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: Because I think the Packers would love to do that. Well, 161 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: looking at the Packers schedule, and one I give them 162 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: the NFL credit because those of us on the West 163 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: Coast when you do this for a living and listen, 164 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: I'm not acting like this is difficult. My dad was 165 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,319 Speaker 1: a farmer. I've worked that that's hard work. I worked 166 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: construction in high school and in college. That's hard work. 167 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: This is not hard, but it is time consuming. During 168 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 1: the NFL season, I got to watch a lot of football, which, 169 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: you know, not the worst thing in the world. I'm 170 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 1: cool which with watching football all day Saturday and all 171 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: day Sunday. But these international games starting at six thirty 172 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: am Pacific Standard time, like, I'm not that interested. Props 173 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: to the NFL for mainly putting shitty games that I 174 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: just don't have to watch because they're not that relevant 175 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: and I can wake up at halftime. But this international 176 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 1: game is elite. But it's also primetime Friday night. Philly 177 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: Packers in Brazil. That's gonna be cool. It is a 178 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 1: tough early stretch. I mean, you go Philly Colts, like 179 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 1: I think the Colts are gonna be good. So that's 180 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 1: two tough games. Because I've always said I have no 181 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: problem breaking off Jordan Love. I would just need to 182 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: see more. I would give him a contract extension in 183 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: the middle of the season. And the Packers are good. 184 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: It means they're competing with the Philly, the Colts, the Rams, 185 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: the Texans. I mean, these are all teams they play 186 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: in the first half of the season. So what he 187 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: proved last year was incredible. The way he played at 188 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: the end of last season on a look like versions 189 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: of Aaron Rodgers. That was like, like, what the hell 190 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 1: is this? But I say it all the time. Part 191 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: of being a good player. This is why I defend perty. 192 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,079 Speaker 1: He had the end half of his rookie season when 193 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: everyone got hurt, and then he came back this year 194 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: and answered the bell. Obviously it's a short resume, but 195 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: if he does it again, like he's got a large 196 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: body of work, he's just a good player. That's why 197 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,839 Speaker 1: when the Lions signed Jared Goth played well for them 198 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: for two seasons. He has three years with the Rams, 199 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: like he has a five year body of work. That's 200 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: like a high level Pro Bowl like you've seen it. 201 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: It's not a one year wonder. And I think if 202 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Jordan Love take a step take 203 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: a step back early in the season, everyone gets just back. Okay, 204 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: let's just take a deep breath. We got the franchise 205 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 1: tag in our back pocket. But if all of a sudden, 206 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: you're six and three and you've beaten the Colts, Rams, 207 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: and Texans and he's outplayed some of their young quarterbacks, Yeah, 208 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: let's give this guy one hundred and sixty hundred and 209 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: seventy hundred and eighty million dollars. This guy's our quarterback 210 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: for the future. We don't even hesitate, but I would 211 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 1: use the early body of work as just a deep breath. 212 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: That's why I would not sign the contract. They're still unknown. 213 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: Like with Tua, I've seen enough. I'm sorry. I'm not 214 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: extending even if I was the Cowboys, like we got 215 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: to win in the playoffs, if I'm gonna give another 216 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: huge extension With Jordan Love, I mean, there's a chance 217 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 1: in a couple of years he's one of the better 218 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the NFL. But also we've seen a lot 219 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: of guys have an eight year or an eight game 220 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: stretch and then take a step back. And this early 221 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: part of the schedule, I think we're gonna learn a lot. 222 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: He has the entire offseason with all these young players, 223 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: he's entrenched as a starter. The other thing is, and 224 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: I would say the same thing about CJ. Stroud, sometimes 225 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: you get to sneak up on people because you're a 226 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: young player, you're unproven. When you're an established star, like 227 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: when Lamar Jackson or Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes plays 228 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: a football game, you have got that defensive coordinator and 229 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: those defensive players attention every minute of every day during 230 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: the week. They have given elite focus. That's why I 231 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: always give you, like a shitty win during or a 232 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: shitty loss during the season, it's like, God, how did 233 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: you lose to the Giants or how did you blow 234 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 1: it to the Panthers or the Cardinals. Well, we didn't 235 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: focus as much during the week. You know why. We're 236 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: human beings. And Belichick used to get up there when 237 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: they'd be playing a winless team in November and he'd 238 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: go on some diet tribe about how great their special 239 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: teams is, how awesome their pass rushes. These players see 240 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 1: the film, they know they suck. But when you play 241 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: the best of the best, you better dial in one. 242 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: Football is hard enough to begin with, and when you're 243 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: playing elite players like you better be on your p's 244 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: and qs. You better take practice seriously, film studies seriously, 245 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: or rehab seriously, or lifting seriously. You're eating your sleep 246 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: like you're extra focus. Well, I'm not saying CJ. Stroud 247 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: didn't get any attention last year, but he's gonna get 248 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: way more this year. That when it's ten o'clock at 249 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: night and the defensive coordinators like, yeah, should I go 250 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: home to my wife? No, maybe I will do an 251 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,679 Speaker 1: extra hour film study. Were that defensive ends or linebacker 252 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 1: or safety, and you just get an extra level of 253 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: preparation from the opponent. Jordan Love is gonna get that 254 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 1: this year, like no one is going to go into 255 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: a defensive game plan when you're playing the Packers starting 256 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: with Vic Fangio going to Gus Bradley and not spend 257 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: extra time getting ready for this player and viewing him 258 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: early on as this guy might be one of the 259 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,559 Speaker 1: best young players in the league, and that's an incredible 260 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: opportunity for the Packers to evaluate them. It's why Kyle 261 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: Shanahan's high on brock Purty because they were so good 262 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: his rookie year. When he came back his second year, 263 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: teams were throwing the kitchen sink at he was like, God, 264 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 1: look at the way he handled it. Now, part of 265 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: being a great player is doing it for like ten 266 00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: straight years. Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, Tom burd we know 267 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,719 Speaker 1: the list. What Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen are doing 268 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: right now, Lamar Jackson every single year like, yeah, I'm 269 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: headed to the Pro Bowl this year, like it's August fifth, Yeah, 270 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 1: I'll be there. And I think Jordan Love is a 271 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl talent and I'm fascinated to watch it materialize, 272 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: right because if it comes to fruition, the Packers could 273 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: be an awesome team. They could compete with the Detroit 274 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: Lions and the San Francsco forty nine ers in the NFC. 275 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: If he's just kind of as the kids would say, 276 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: mid or just doesn't takes a step back, honestly, if 277 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: he just plays like he did at the end of 278 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: the next season, they're gonna be good. I mean they're 279 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: gonna be They're gonna be excellent, assuming that their defensive 280 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 1: coordinator is good. And that's the other thing with these schedules. 281 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: The hard part about schedules is, like one, injuries at 282 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: quarterback change things dramatically and also sometimes teams that we 283 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: think we're gonna be good. I know last year, one 284 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: team I thought was gonna suck, and one team I 285 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: thought that was gonna be good were the Giants and 286 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 1: the Bucks. Do you know what It turned out? The 287 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: Giants sucked and the Bucks were good, and they won 288 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: a playoff game and they went toe to toe with 289 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 1: the Lions on the road in the second round, So 290 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: things changed dramatically. It's why it's hard to go win lost, 291 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: win win, win lost, because if a quarterback is missing 292 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: and you're playing a backup, that is a massive pendulum swing. 293 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: And two, even if guys are healthy, maybe a team 294 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: is just not as good. Maybe something is off, something 295 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: with the cohesion. Players aren't playing as well. A guy 296 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: got old fast, there was a coordinator change, and it's 297 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: not sticking. So you just never know. You have a 298 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: pretty good idea, like the Niners are gonna be good, 299 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: the Ravens are gonna be good, right, but there are 300 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: a lot of like Cleveland last year won eleven games. 301 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna win eleven games anymore, right, 302 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: So they're gonna be teams that were bad last year 303 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: who take big steps and they're gonna be teams that 304 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: are bad last year, like Carolina, most team people think 305 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: are going to be bad again. Also, when do you 306 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: get a team when they're struggling, like Pa, you get 307 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: a team week one. I don't care if you're playing 308 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 1: the Jets, I don't care if you're playing the Eagles, 309 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: or I don't care if you're gonna play in the Panthers. 310 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: It's usually hard because you're getting every team's best effort. 311 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: They have as much hope as you do, and spirits 312 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 1: are high, especially on the road. So even if I 313 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: don't think Cleveland is that good, the Cowboys getting them 314 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 1: week one on the road, dog Pound place going nuts, 315 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: Tom Brady, that's a difficult game, right, So Philly last 316 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 1: year is a good example. If you got him early, 317 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: it was tough. If you got them late, it was 318 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: a lot easier. So it's fun to me to look 319 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: at the travel like east to west or west to 320 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: east or short weeks. That stuff matters, But it's hard 321 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: to go we're playing that quarterback, and I do that 322 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: with the Bengals. I mean Joe Burrow's hand. That situation 323 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: is in question until he proves it not. And it's 324 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: like the Chiefs. I could break down the chief schedule 325 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: like win, win, loss, this is a tough game. Here's 326 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 1: what I know. At the end of the day, they're 327 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: gonna be eleven or thirteen wins and more than likely 328 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 1: they're gonna win the division and have the one or 329 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 1: two seed. And this year, unlike last year, there's not 330 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: a soul. If Patrick Mahomes is under center or in 331 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 1: the shotgun, anyone's gonna bet against them, period, point blank, 332 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: end of story. I mean, that's the point this franchise 333 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: is at their schedule. Honestly, kind of irrelevant. It might 334 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: be the difference of fourteen wins or eleven wins or 335 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 1: twelve wins. But here's what I know. If Mahomes play 336 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: seventeen games, playoffs, division champs. It's really that simple. And 337 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 1: that's what the Patriots had become, right if like, yeah, 338 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: this might be a thirteen win season, this could be 339 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: an eleven win season, playoffs, and good fucking luck trying 340 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 1: to play them. God's speed, you better be ready. And like, 341 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 1: obviously the division should be a little better, assuming Harbaugh 342 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,720 Speaker 1: and the Chargers are much just better than what we 343 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 1: saw at of Brandon Saley and as Sean Payton starts 344 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: to kind of feel it out that they should be 345 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 1: more competitive start to finish, but like you would have 346 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 1: to be stoned out of your mind on who knows 347 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: what to like to me, of all the divisions, if 348 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 1: you just went around, they are by far the easiest 349 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 1: to pick. Chiefs Baltimore. I don't even need to look 350 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: at it. Their schedules a irrelevant. Honestly, they play tough games. 351 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: They've had a first play schedule. I don't know for 352 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: seven straight years. They're gonna be good like the Niners, 353 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: for example, Like I would not feel I think they're 354 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,719 Speaker 1: gonna win the division, but it wouldn't stun me if 355 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: the Rams won it. I know they're both gonna be solid. 356 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,640 Speaker 1: I think the Chiefs are by far the easiest team 357 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 1: to pick because even a Lions back Lions, Well, what 358 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 1: if Jordan Love is even better and all of a 359 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 1: sudden that's the difference of a game and the Hackers 360 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: win that division. One teams wins twelve and the other 361 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: wins eleven. It's very hard to pick the AFC North. 362 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 1: We you know the Ravens, let's face it, lost a lot. 363 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 1: We don't know burrows health status, the Browns and Deshaun 364 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 1: Watson is even good. Uh. I think most people are 365 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 1: gonna pick the Houston Texans, and I don't blame you 366 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: for doing that, but let's not forget they were a 367 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: drop pass away against Gardner Minshew from not winning that division. 368 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: So I think the Colts are gonna be pretty good. 369 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 1: To me, that's a coin flip. And the other division 370 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: that just makes me laugh as everyone, Oh the Falcons, 371 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: They're the betting favorite, and most people I hear that 372 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 1: talk about football is like, ah, the Falcons. The Kirk 373 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: Cousins is just some division winner consistently coming off in Achilles. 374 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: Raheem Morris has won what exactly like, let's just pump 375 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 1: the breaks. I look at Tampa's roster. It looks a 376 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: lot better to me. I told myself I would never 377 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: bet on the Saints and Dennis Allen to win a 378 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: division again. But they did go nine and eight last year, 379 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: and now they added Koopiak from the Niner staff to 380 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: run that offense. And the reason that they went nine 381 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: and eight and lost so many ugly games is because 382 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 1: Derek Carr and the offense wasn't good for a lot 383 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: of the season. Well, what if that's vastly improved, schedule's 384 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 1: fun and a lot of people like everyone makes such 385 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 1: a big deal once the NFL the games matter. There's 386 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 1: a reason it's a big deal, because every week matters, 387 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 1: and the primetime games matter. It's why Netflix is getting involved. 388 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 1: And I mentioned this to Colin. I can't reiterate this enough. Listen, 389 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: I understand if you're pissed off because you gotta pay 390 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: for Peacock. It was much easier fifteen to twenty years ago, 391 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,440 Speaker 1: but it's twenty twenty four. In the world we live in, 392 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: Amazon and Netflix are bigger than all these broadcast channels. 393 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: So when you're bigger, what does that mean you have 394 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: more money? So when Netflix dip their toe in, starting 395 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: with the Tom Brady Roast, I looked the other day 396 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 1: because we were surfing for something to watch, it was 397 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 1: still the number one trending show. The NFL is going 398 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: to crush on Netflix. And if you want to complain 399 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,679 Speaker 1: about Peacock, I understand if you are a cable bundle 400 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: guy and don't have YouTube TV and you want the package. 401 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: I get being a little, you know, pissed off. I 402 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: don't want to hear anyone complaining about Netflix. My seventy 403 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 1: five year old mother watches Netflix every single day on 404 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: my account, which I think Netflix is cracking down on. 405 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: But everyone I know has Netflix, and this isn't going 406 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 1: to be a success. I would be stunned if the 407 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:56,440 Speaker 1: next time the broadcast rights come around that Netflix don't 408 00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: have a Sunday package because they signed a three year 409 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 1: they're paying seventy five million dollars a game. And you 410 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: know who knows this, Roger and the owners, because it 411 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: was very, very telling. They gave them two really good games. 412 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: That wasn't by accident. You know who. They're not giving 413 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: great games to the UK in Germany, games we don't 414 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: really need to watch. And I understand it's Christmas, but 415 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: they gave them really good games Chiefs and the Steelers 416 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:31,439 Speaker 1: and the Ravens and the Texans. That's not by accident. 417 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 1: And they know Netflix's power, and they also know where 418 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 1: this is headed. I didn't choose this, We didn't choose this, 419 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: but this is where we're at. This is the way 420 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 1: the world has happened, with the streaming, with the way 421 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: everything's operated. I host a show on a daily basis. 422 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 1: If this was fifteen years ago, I would have to 423 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: be on a radio show to do this. Now, how 424 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 1: can a radio show compete against me? Because if you're like, well, 425 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: I'm on tomorrow at ten am, listen up, I've already 426 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: recorded reacting to the same things you're going to react 427 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: to in real time and it's been out for ten hours. 428 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:17,400 Speaker 1: Why because of podcasting and streaming on YouTube. So the 429 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: power of this stuff is irrefutable. It's not debatable. Can 430 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: it be a pain in our ass sometimes? Of course, 431 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 1: transitional times usually are, but we're not going backwards. This 432 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: is only This is the way of the future, and 433 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: this is where the money is for the league to 434 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: stay healthy and to keep rolling. So I just I 435 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 1: know people are going to complain, and there are some 436 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: valid complaints, but I've said this about NBC forever. I 437 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 1: just talked to Colin about this. I don't think NBC 438 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,640 Speaker 1: is really going to be around as it has most 439 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: of my life in ten fifteen years. Peacock is their 440 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 1: only way to survive and they're just about to get 441 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: and even Colin says the deal they're going to sign 442 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: with the NBA is moronic. But I think a huge 443 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,959 Speaker 1: reason they're going to quote unquote overpay and lose their 444 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 1: ass on it because they need inventory for Peacock, because 445 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: that's their only kind of road to survival because their 446 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: costs so high. They have to get people on these 447 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: streaming platforms because that's where everyone is. That is where 448 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: the consumer is, especially the younger consumer. Well, in ten 449 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,199 Speaker 1: fifteen years, a guy like me is no longer thirty eight, 450 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: thirty nine years old. I'm fifty five, so I'm the 451 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 1: current Well what about the fifty five year old now, 452 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 1: Well in fifteen years, like guy seventy, and I'm more 453 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: important in fifteen years as the consumer than that guy. 454 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: And I've been inundated and used to this now for 455 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: a long period of time, and I represent people my age, 456 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: So change is tough. But the NFL's seen these other 457 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 1: leagues and they don't want to do that. Baseball's done 458 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 1: it for years. It's like sign these local deals. It's like, well, 459 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,400 Speaker 1: how's that working out for you? Last but out at least. 460 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 1: I saw this clip on the twenty first of December, 461 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: which is a Saturday, and typically after the college football 462 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 1: season ends those couple weeks, the NFL does a couple 463 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: Saturday games. They've done it for as long as I 464 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 1: can remember, Well they're doing it again this year. They 465 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: haven't changed twenty first of December is a Saturday, and 466 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: the NFL has two football games on that day like 467 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:32,679 Speaker 1: they have forever, college football the playoffs instead of forever 468 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: it's been bowl games that just did not matter, the 469 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:41,880 Speaker 1: Stanley Cup Bowl, the Apple Bowl, and the Slipper Bowl. Well, 470 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 1: now it's real games. It could be Alabama at Ohio State, 471 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 1: USC at Texas and it's going to be a big 472 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 1: deal for college football, which I don't blame them for changing, 473 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 1: but the NFL. I saw a lot of people in 474 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:59,360 Speaker 1: college football like, what are we doing? Well, that's been 475 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: the NFL's territory. If you want to come to that, 476 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,199 Speaker 1: I don't blame you, and I'll watch everything, multiple TVs 477 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 1: going or iPad or whatever. But like, that week has 478 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: always been a throwaway week for college football. It's been 479 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 1: irrelevant bowl games you didn't really have to watch. And 480 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,239 Speaker 1: now it's an important weekend for college football. But what 481 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 1: do you expect the NFL to do not put games there? 482 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: I truly don't care because I'm gonna be watching football 483 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 1: all day that day no matter what. But a lot 484 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: of people on the internet that cover the sport are 485 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: gonna complain and talk about college football. Maybe you could 486 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,360 Speaker 1: move it back, but the NFL plays those Saturday games 487 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 1: in late December. They have for a long period of time, 488 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 1: and they're not gonna slow down doing that. I'd argue 489 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: both can live. It obviously will take away from college football, 490 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 1: but it kind of is what it is. It's just 491 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 1: the timing. If you're going to expand this longer college 492 00:26:56,240 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: football season, you're gonna run into, you know, the saber 493 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:06,640 Speaker 1: tooth tiger, the lion king, something you can't beat. Now, 494 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 1: you listening to this might not care. I really don't 495 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 1: care whether the ratings are high or low for college 496 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 1: football player I'm gonna watch, but it is going to 497 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 1: hurt the college playoff product going up against NFL games. 498 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: I don't have these specific games in front of me, 499 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 1: but whether those are great games or bad games, it 500 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. The volume
