Well, the Eagles beat the Dallas Cowboys 29 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: and now control all the NFC East seventeen at home 30 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: as well as they should have. And let's face it, 31 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: Philadelphia is on fire. We got the Phillies upsetting the 32 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 1: Braves in the NLCS for the first time in two 33 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: thousand and ten. We got the Sixers. Uh, they they're 34 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: one of you know, have some of the best odds 35 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: to win the NBA Championship. Who knows, j I got 36 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: James Harden, but they got a good team. And then 37 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: we got the Birds Fly Eagles fly currently six and 38 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: oh and clearly really good. Now what's a little bizarre 39 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: about them is they start fast and they did it 40 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: again to night up twenty to nothing, and then this 41 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: season they've kind of hit the skids in the second half. 42 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: They've really struggled. But one thing I noticed tonight, right 43 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: early on in the game, it's pretty incredible that they 44 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: were able to acquire a J. Brown for what pick. 45 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: Like that guy is a baller. I mean I talked 46 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: about it a lot when Debo was on the block. 47 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: The reason you can't trade Debo is because you literally 48 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: have Deebo Samuel or then there was DK Metcalf, like 49 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 1: Seattle they got rid of Russell. Wilson was like, yeah, 50 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: you got DK Metcalf. Same thing with a D. Brown. 51 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 1: I like John Robinson, Mike Rabel, excellent coach. They're they're 52 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 1: competitive this year. I kind of out of nowhere, But 53 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: I like the whole point of drafting is the draft 54 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: suite players, especially elite receivers. In the second round, you 55 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 1: get a guy like that, I would try to keep him. 56 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 1: Obviously they had to pivot. Might have been Tannehill's contract. 57 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: The Eagles really benefit because that guy is a fucking 58 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: monster and Jalen he has gotten so much better. I 59 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: was texting someone at night around the Alabama program and like, God. 60 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: I was like, I never in a million years thought 61 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: this guy was gonna be good, not not this good, 62 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: like good at all. I thought it was insane that 63 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: he was a second round pick. Jalen Hurts, second round pick, 64 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: the guy that struggled to throw, the guy that even 65 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: when you watched in Oklahoma just kind of ran around. 66 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: He is a much better thrower of the football now 67 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: and he deserves a lot of credit for that, he 68 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: really does. But his ability to make something out of nothing, 69 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: and you saw it tonight with his legs really separates 70 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: him because they hit the skids to night again in 71 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: the second half, and then he made multiple plays with 72 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: his legs and it kept him alive. And then eventually, 73 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: because the Eagles have so much talent, they did a 74 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: great job of acquiring a J. Brown, They got Dallas Goddard, 75 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: they got Miles Sanders, and they I even thought, not 76 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 1: that this was a crazy pick, but DeVante Smith. The 77 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: thing with and we're gonna talk a lot about Bryce 78 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: Young as this season goes along. And then obviously during 79 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: the draft process, Davante Smith was like a hundred and 80 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: seventy five pounds and I went, you know, this is 81 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 1: the NFL these corners, these linebackers, these safeties are big. 82 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: What's gonna happen when he takes a hit And I 83 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: remember having a buddy who scouted that area. They're like, 84 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,119 Speaker 1: I think you're kind of overthinking it. He has played 85 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,359 Speaker 1: his entire life at this size. He knows how to 86 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 1: excel as a little guy. And you watch Davante Dude 87 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: as a baller. So the Eagles have a quarterback who 88 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: is vastly improved, who is not turning the ball over 89 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: now and is an elite runner of the football. They 90 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: have surrounded him with Lane got hurt tonight, but an 91 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 1: excellent offensive line, multiple stud wide receivers, a legit tight end, 92 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: and a stud running back, and you're seeing the fruits 93 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 1: of their labor. Like they are definitely very hard. The Cowboys, 94 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: Dan Quinn, that is a big time defense, physical front. 95 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: They tackle well for the most part, they cover well, 96 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: and they started doing a really good job in the 97 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: second half. They adjusted at halftime, but when you have 98 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: that much talent, it's impossible to just shut you out. 99 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: And eventually Jalen led him on to drive. It led 100 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 1: to these r p o s. These gifts you don't 101 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 1: know who's getting the ball Davante Smith wide open, and 102 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: that was essentially the game. And the talent on their team, 103 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 1: combined with the maturation of their quarterback, I don't even 104 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 1: think it's debatable, Like would I put all my money 105 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 1: on them to win the Super Bowl? Probably not. But 106 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 1: if you told me right now you could see the future. 107 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 1: You say the Eagles are the Super Bowl champions, Like 108 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: I believe you. They have so much talent and their 109 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 1: quarterback is just steady. Now that's the key. He's not 110 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: some superstar, even though he's having a fantastic ciscal year. 111 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: But I just mean, like, he's not the fastest guy 112 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: on the field, doesn't have the biggest arm. He's just 113 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: very under control, plays within himself, but also is able 114 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: to kind of over extend himself because of the players 115 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: around him. And Eagles are good, man, they just are. 116 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys are good like I thought tonight 117 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: one that immediately clicked their schedule because obviously lose this game. 118 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: Even if Dak had played Cooper Rush made some horrible decisions, 119 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: they kind of settled them down in the second half, 120 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: which is ultimately the key to the Cowboys. When Dad 121 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 1: comes back when he's healthy, he was always gonna start 122 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: people like middle If you said the gap in talent, yeah, 123 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: I still believe that. I don't think physically one, they're 124 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,919 Speaker 1: the same size, same weight, Dak's a little bit faster, 125 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: and their arm strength is very similar. Now Dac is 126 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: a better player, but from a skill standpoint, they are similar. 127 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: That is not debatable. I'm not making that up. That 128 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: is something tangible that you can see. But when you 129 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: pay a guy forty million, there was never a quarterback controversy. 130 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: I don't care how many games he won. There's gonna 131 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: be a quarterback controversy in New England. Will get into 132 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: that in a little bit. But when it comes to 133 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, when Dad comes back, their philosophy to excel 134 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: with this team, play defense, which they're going to play 135 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: with dan Quinn, Michael Parsons and all those guys, and 136 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: run the ball handed to Pollard, handed to Zeke, and 137 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: then play action stuff. That is the philosophy when Dad 138 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: comes back, and they can be really successful. Now you know, 139 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: I didn't wasn't didn't have the volume on for a 140 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: lot of this game. Obviously he worked out before the game, 141 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: whether he's a week away, whether he's two weeks away. 142 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if collins Worth dropped in he Nuggets, 143 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: but here's what I do know. They have the Lions 144 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: and the Bears coming up. So whether Cooper Rush is 145 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: still playing or Dak able to come back, this team 146 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: more than likely is gonna be six and two. They 147 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: are not going away. They still get the Eagles at home. 148 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: They uh have they played the Commanders and maybe they 149 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: played the Commanders once that This team is a playoff 150 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,239 Speaker 1: team in my opinion, because their defense is so good 151 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: and physically they can run the ball like the big 152 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: knock on them last year. One those penalties uh which 153 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: is always a problem with McCarthy most physicality, like they 154 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: just weren't that tough beside Mark Micah. They feel a 155 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: lot tougher right now, and to me that translates. That's 156 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: why in that playoff game, home playoff game against the Niners, 157 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: they got shoved around, and from a physical standpoint, it 158 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: feels like they belong much more. Maybe they're more confident, 159 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: Maybe their guys are just a little bit more mature. 160 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: Maybe they're hammering the run a little more. Obviously uh 161 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: Mari has gone, so they're a little less dependent throwing 162 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: the ball, but I came away when this game ended. Listen, 163 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: you can't make a judgment off two drives or off 164 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: a half, because ultimately I'm judging you on the whole game. 165 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,839 Speaker 1: I actually learned a lot about the Cowboys. They got 166 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: hit in the mouth on a road. It's a huge 167 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 1: night for Philly, right. You got Mike Trout in the house, 168 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: Meek Mills playing songs before the game. Places fucking buzzing 169 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 1: that link. I've been to thirty games. Their places awesome 170 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: when the team is good, and they answered it coming 171 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: out a halftime. I I was impressed that was That 172 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: was a fun game, which early felt like it was 173 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: gonna be a blowout. But obviously the Eagles are going nowhere. 174 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: I don't think the Cowboys are either. And on the 175 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,559 Speaker 1: other big game of the day, I was thinking about 176 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: this watching these two guys play. I think my favorite 177 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: part about sports is the highest levels. I say this 178 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 1: all the time, Like I watched Pro Sports for the best, 179 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: Like I watched Pro Sports for Michael Jordan, for Tiger Woods, 180 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: for Tom Brady, for Peyton Manning, for you know, Mike 181 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: Trout and Bryce Harper. I don't watch for the little 182 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: engine that could It's why when I worked in the 183 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: NFL as a scout, you spend most of your time 184 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 1: evaluating the fringe players. I was gonna say, shitty players. 185 00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: It's all relative when you're in the league. That's what 186 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 1: you call when you get out guys that are backups, 187 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: practice squad guys. Relative to their sport, they're way better 188 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: than people. But the majority of guys in the league, 189 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: especially in football, are very replaceable. And that's as a 190 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: scout you spend so much time. It's why the scouting 191 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: community can become very negative. You end up watching so 192 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 1: many guys that aren't quite good enough or that are 193 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: missing something. You actually don't spend that much time evaluating, 194 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: right you know the Charles Woodson's and Randy Mosses and 195 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: Ed Reid's and Justin Jefferson's that those are the minority. 196 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 1: The majority are your backup right guard. You know, some 197 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 1: third string linebacker that can cover people on special teams. 198 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 1: And when I watched Josh Mahon, Josh Allen, and Patrick Mahomes, 199 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 1: their talent is incredible. And I think one thing that's 200 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: cool about this matchup is Patrick came into the league, 201 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: became an immediate star, an immediate star, won the m 202 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: v P within the second year. He's a super Bowl champion. 203 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: He is just a headline. You can see it with 204 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: your eyes. You could see it with the stats, you 205 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 1: can see it with his resume. He had it all 206 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: within two years. He was a rocket ship and he 207 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: has answered the bell ever since. But he accomplished so much, 208 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: so fast, you could not dispute anything. I say it 209 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 1: all the time with basketball and baseball, like the Dodgers, 210 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: they win all these games. No one, and I mean 211 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: no one gives a ship about regular season baseball games. 212 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: They are irrelevant. And when you're winning one five, when 213 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: you're you gotta win in the playoffs. That's the only 214 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: thing we judge you on because he's random games in 215 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 1: the middle of the season. Besides, some fans watching it 216 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: that night do not matter to the grand scheme of anything. 217 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 1: Same thing in basketball, the regular seat James Harden can 218 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 1: average fifty a night. If he gets throttled in the playoffs, 219 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 1: it does not matter. So once you win in the playoffs, 220 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: no one can ever talk about you. That is the 221 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: whole goal of all of sports is to win at 222 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: the highest level in college is to win in the 223 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: playoffs and win that championships. In college basketball it's the 224 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: n c Double A tournament, in the NFL, it's the playoffs. 225 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: But in football, different than the other sports, you have 226 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: less games, so games, that's why we overreact the games. 227 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: You only get so many, you only get seventeen. In baseball, 228 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: there's a hundred and sixty two regular season games and 229 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: then obviously playoffs. It's a one and done scenario. There 230 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: aren't series. So we put more emphasis and rightfully so, 231 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: on football games just because of the quantity of them, 232 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: and also because like in basketball, guy might take two 233 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: weeks off, You're like, why are you injured? No, I 234 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: just want to take some rest, wanted to clear my head. 235 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: In football, guys that are injured playing games. You never 236 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: want to miss a game, and you have to earn 237 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: the credibility to be considered a superstar. And last year 238 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 1: Josh Allen was awesome. We all knew the physical tools 239 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: and he finally put it together. But he didn't get 240 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 1: over the hump in the playoffs, right, but it ultimately 241 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: wasn't his fault. The weird part about quarterback, right, like, 242 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: if Josh Allen was an NBA player, he could be 243 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: like Janice. He can play offense and he can playing defense, 244 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: but he couldn't play defense against the Chiefs last year 245 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 1: in the second round, and they went to plays and 246 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: they got in field goal rains and the rest is history. 247 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: And I didn't necessarily was hesitant to put him on 248 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: Mahomes level. But Mahomes has just done it consistently at 249 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: the highest level for so long. To me, Mahomes, his 250 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: will to win is elite. It's like Peyton, It's like 251 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: Tom It's like just the great players. It's it's the 252 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,440 Speaker 1: reason I love the Warriors. I didn't grow up a 253 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: Warriors fan, and I said, if the Warriors had Karl 254 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: Anthony Towns and Kyrie Irving on their team, I wouldn't 255 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: watch a fucking game. But they have guys that have 256 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: this will to win. And I've watched him in the 257 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 1: biggest moments, under the brightest lights, in the most important games, 258 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 1: and they just find a way, whether they are throwing 259 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 1: their fastball or whether they're off, they will find a 260 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 1: way to have more points than you at the end 261 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 1: of the game. And they've been doing it consistently now 262 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 1: for almost a decade. And Mahomes is going on now 263 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: almost half a decade, and the thing would Josh Jalen. 264 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: It was like we all annointed him because the talent, 265 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: the uh, the stats, he had it all the team. 266 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 1: But part of being a superstar is one you gotta 267 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: have some intangible qualities like the will to win, some panash, 268 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: just some like pop factor, which which he definitely has, 269 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: but you gotta do it over and over and over again. 270 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: Pull up Peyton Mannings football Reference, pull up Tom Brady's 271 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: football Reference. Pull up Drew brees Is Football Reference. It's 272 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: fifteen straight years of every fucking year answering the bell, 273 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: kicking ass and taking names, and Josh Allen now has 274 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: entered the chat because he's on a pace. To me, 275 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: he's the best player in the league right now. If 276 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: if obviously the season not ending right now, but if 277 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: it did, if I had a vote, he would be 278 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: my m v P. And he he got put up 279 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: on that pedestal he's playing with Patrick Mahomes against Rogers 280 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: and Brady were like put him on that, and he's 281 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: answered that and he's come back. I don't know if 282 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: he's better than last year, because he was damn good. 283 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: He's every bit as good and right now he's every 284 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: bit as good as Patrick Mahomes. Because Patrick Mahomes the start. 285 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: I know every single year he's gonna bring it. Now 286 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: that means he's gonna lose some games. He's gonna make 287 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 1: a throw a bad pick, so will Josh. Josh will 288 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: have a bad play. Who cares. I wouldn't because those 289 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: two guys are in a completely different universe than everyone else, 290 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: at least their peers. Obviously, Aaron and Tom have been 291 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 1: doing it on the It's hard to compare those guys 292 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 1: because they're way younger. But you know what I mean, 293 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 1: and I think today Josh Allen's what's cool about watching 294 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: him play Mahomes is their will to win is the same. 295 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: Like you feel it when you're watching him. You're like 296 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, I don't want this guy. If I was 297 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: a fan, I'd want this guy as my quarterback. If 298 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: I was again, if I was betting on this game, 299 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: I want money on that guy. And they just go 300 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: down to the last second again. Patrick was the same way. 301 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: I thought he threw the pick that cost him the game, 302 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: but it was like whatever, I don't want to go 303 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: to war with Patrick Mahomes, And I think Josh Allen. 304 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: I think it's I think you can incredibly say now 305 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: that they're just kind of equals. Now he had does 306 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 1: not have the m v P, which I think he'll 307 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: get at the end of this year. And he's gotta 308 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 1: get the Super Bowl, which they are to me now 309 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: on the path to be the number one seed. And 310 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: as we know, with the seating now has changed because 311 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: you know, only one team gets to buy, that's a 312 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 1: really big deal. And the Super Bowl having to go 313 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: through Buffalo like part of the last year's they lost 314 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: in Kansas City. If they go to Buffalo, that'd be 315 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: a pretty tough place to win. And uh, I thought 316 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 1: today and really all season long, but remarkable performance by 317 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: Josh Allen.

Let's get into Belichick in Brady obviously the 346 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: news of the weekend, Robert Kraft got married. I love 347 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,959 Speaker 1: all these people like making fun of like Robert Kraft 348 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: marry in this forty seven year old, Like what would 349 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:23,680 Speaker 1: you do if you were eighty one and super rich 350 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 1: marry a ninety year old? Like, of course he's gonna 351 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,919 Speaker 1: marry someone younger. You're just jealous, like none of us 352 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 1: most people listening are never gonna have anywhere close to 353 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 1: the money. This guy has the fame. Whatever. If I 354 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,120 Speaker 1: wasn't hissues and I was eighty one years old, yeah, 355 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 1: I would probably marry someone way younger than me. Like, 356 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 1: I don't know if we're being funny about it, okay, 357 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 1: but I think a lot of people are serious, Like 358 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 1: what do you people expect this guy to do? Now? 359 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 1: I did think it was a little weird to get 360 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 1: married during football season, like he owns an NFL team 361 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: football season. I know me personally, whenever someone gets married 362 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: in the falls, Like, yeah, I don't think I can 363 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 1: make it. I don't know. I gotta work. It's hard. 364 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 1: I don't play in the NFL, but it's it's gonna 365 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: be hard for me to make it. My whole business 366 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: revolves around this. I had to turn down a couple 367 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: of weddings coming up just because I'm not a once 368 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,199 Speaker 1: in Mexico and like, I can't make it. This is 369 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 1: how I paid my bill Saturday Sunday's Mondays. Like I'm 370 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: not able to travel and miss all day Sunday. That's 371 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 1: not happening. Now. Robert did put it on a Friday night. 372 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: But when it came to Bill, Bill and Brady, which 373 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: I would say define the Craft era, Obviously, one guy 374 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: went to the wedding and one guy didn't. And if 375 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 1: you look at the games to day, one guy won 376 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: and one guy didn't. And Bill, who did not attend 377 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 1: the wedding, one Tom who attended the wedding lost. Let's 378 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: start with Bill. Get ready for this, because like I said, 379 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: with Dak and Cooper Rush, I never said that Doak 380 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: wasn't gonna get his job back. It's basic economics. Doak 381 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 1: was always they paid forty million dollars a year. Dak 382 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 1: Prescott starting quarterback for the Cowboys when he's healthy. I'm 383 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,479 Speaker 1: not backing off the their talent. The gap is not 384 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:06,160 Speaker 1: very wide. Now Mac Jones. Bill Belichick did not trade 385 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: up to get mac Jones drafted a overall and I 386 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: even I thought that's a little high. But listen, he 387 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 1: did it, and he started coming back to Earth at 388 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: the end of last season and then early on this season. 389 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: Before he got her, he was not playing that well. Now. 390 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 1: I don't pretend to know much about Bailey Zappy. I 391 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 1: know he threw a lot of yards Western Kentucky, smaller school, 392 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 1: very successful rumors. I think I heard it on like 393 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: Bill Simmons podcast, someone around Robert Craft said that Robert Craft, 394 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 1: when Matt got hurt, wanted Zappy to be the quarterback 395 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: over Brian Hoyer. Didn't happen until Howyer got hurt, and 396 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: now Zappy's in. We have seen this before. Belichick does 397 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: not give a ship one about draft status to about 398 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: money in terms of if you make a lot of 399 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: money and you're the starter and you're not as good 400 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 1: or you're not better than the backup, who makes one 401 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 1: guy makes a million, the other guy makes ten million, 402 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: just because you make more. Andy Belichick ain't starting the 403 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: guy more money if the guy making less money is better. 404 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: He does not care about any of that. He also, 405 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 1: I would say, no coach in the modern era. Now, 406 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 1: he's missed on a lot of picks, so he's found 407 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: himself in these situations. Has drafted guys in the late 408 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: first round, in the second round, in the third round, 409 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,640 Speaker 1: and pivoted off them faster when he thought this guy 410 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: can't play, this guy can't help me win. Than Bill Belichick, 411 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: he is not consumed by well, I drafted this guy 412 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 1: in the second round. I gotta give him three years. 413 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: He does not care. And mac Jones was struggling. Now 414 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 1: mac Jones was overall pick. But he's not some physically 415 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 1: gifted freak. It's not like well, he still gotta figure 416 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: things out. He could eventually be Josh Allen. He doesn't 417 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: have that in the bag. In my opinion. Good guy. 418 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 1: I've heard. He's a high character guy. He is one 419 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: of the least talented top fifteen quarterbacks, top fifteen picks 420 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: at that position. Ever. Now there's more to quarterback than 421 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: just move mid size arm. But he doesn't have any 422 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: of that, and he you know, quote unquote hung his 423 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: hat on reading defenses, manipulating, understanding the game, managing the offense. Well, 424 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: one thing that happened to Mac because he started throwing 425 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 1: a bunch of picks and Zappy only you know, two 426 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: games in really two and a half as a starter, 427 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 1: he threw a couple of touchdowns. Today thirty four, I 428 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,400 Speaker 1: watched some of the game. He looked calm, cool, collected. 429 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 1: The Patriots don't even want to depend that much on 430 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: the quarterback. They want to run the football, play defense 431 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: like they did with Mac Jones last year. The problem 432 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: is Mac Jones last year, towards the end of last 433 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 1: year and then obviously early this year, it turned into 434 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 1: some turnover machine. Belichick hates turnovers. If Zappy is not 435 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: gonna turn over the ball like unlike Cooper Russian dec 436 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: Zappy will remain the quarterback. Mac Jones just ain't getting 437 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 1: his job back. That is not how Bill Belichick rolls 438 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick. Maybe he wasn't invited. I don't know. It'd 439 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 1: be a little weird if Craft didn't invite Bill Belichick 440 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: to the wedding. But Bill Belichick was not at the wedding, 441 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 1: and Bill Belichick two days later wins and now he's 442 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: rein three and let's face it, their teams kind of 443 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: training up. They beat the ship on Alliance bad team, 444 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: but they killed him last week and they beat the 445 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 1: crap out of the Cleveland Browse who Jacoby were set 446 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,119 Speaker 1: is definitely coming back to Earth. And there are other 447 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: quarterback who's worth two eighty million or fifty million or 448 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: however much Jimmy haslum got him is getting sued left 449 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: and white right still, so they got problems. And then 450 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: you've got Tom, who I would say in my lifetime, 451 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: the two guys, I I would throw Tiger in this 452 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: as well, but it's it's tigers and individual sport when 453 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: it came to team sports, guys who chose their sport 454 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: over literally everything. Is Tom Brady and Kobe Bryant of 455 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: the last twenty years. And there's a story in this 456 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 1: documentary out on the Redeemed Team. I haven't watched it, 457 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: but I watched the clip on the guys telling the story, 458 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: and it's like Lebron, James, Duane Wade, uh, you know, Chris, 459 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 1: Carlos Boozer, Carmelo Anthony. They're getting ready for the Olympics 460 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: and they're training in Vegas. I think they're playing games 461 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,439 Speaker 1: in Vegas and working out in Vegas, and the entire 462 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 1: team goes out to a club, and in Vegas there 463 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 1: is no time, so they're all coming back to the hotel. 464 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: They got practiced in like three or four hours together, 465 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 1: and they show back up at the hotel like six am, 466 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 1: the whole team, and there's one guy that did not 467 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 1: go with them to the club or the concert or 468 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:23,200 Speaker 1: wherever it was. He's sitting in the lobby waiting for 469 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:24,880 Speaker 1: I don't think it was an uber at the time, 470 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: some you know, limo or whatever to take him to 471 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 1: the gym to work out. It's Kobe Bryant, and these 472 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: guys walk in go this is fucking nuts. Kobe, what 473 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: are you doing? He's like, I'm about to go work out. 474 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,119 Speaker 1: And by the end of the week, the entire team 475 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 1: is not going out in Vegas at all. They're getting 476 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: up early, working out and going to the gym with 477 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant. Because Kobe Bryant was all in his entire 478 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 1: career now unlike Tom I think, and mastered being a 479 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 1: better teammate early on in his career than Kobe. But 480 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 1: both those guys left no stone unturned when it came 481 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: to their focus on their craft, and their craft happened 482 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 1: to be basketball and football. And this year Tom does 483 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 1: his retire thing. Which here's my thing on the divorce. 484 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 1: I think we're assuming that like Tom liked her, Like 485 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: what if I told you that Tom hadn't liked her 486 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,679 Speaker 1: in years? It could be two way street. What if 487 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: Giselle hasn't liked him? Like I, I I don't assume that 488 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 1: they had some happy marriage. I honestly would take a 489 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 1: guess that they've been heading opposite directions for a while. 490 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 1: So to me, people get divorced left and right whatever. 491 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 1: The thing that I questioned is Tom leaving training camp 492 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: was the most abnormal thing he's done, because ultimately you'd say, well, 493 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,400 Speaker 1: he retired, then he came back. Is it really that abnormal? Yeah, 494 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 1: he is. He was driven back by football and nothing 495 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 1: even happened during that time because it was like March 496 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 1: or April. But to me, for him to leave training 497 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: camp is pretty nuts. And then this week, because Crafts 498 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 1: getting married on Friday night in New York with Elton 499 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,680 Speaker 1: john Plan, which sounded like a pretty cool wedding, Tom 500 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: Brady leaves the team and meets them in pit spurg 501 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 1: and it was reported even Sean Payton said like, yeah, 502 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: it's a little weird, like I've never experienced that in 503 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 1: all my years. And Tom Brady then this morning or 504 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 1: I guess Saturday morning met the team, Well he missed 505 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 1: walked through on Saturday. Now he clearly is the most 506 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: accomplished guy one in league history and two on the Bucks. 507 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,919 Speaker 1: But then the video today of him screaming at his teammates, 508 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,880 Speaker 1: which is understandable, like he's the leader, he's Tom Brady. 509 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 1: It's easier to do when you're the guy first in 510 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: and last out of the foxhole. Right, We've all seen 511 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 1: the movies with generals screaming at you know, their their 512 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: soldiers on the front lines, and the soldiers like, but 513 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: what the fun You're not even around us. You're back 514 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: at the base. We're up here on the front lines, 515 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: locked and loaded. And Tom, while he does come to 516 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 1: the front lines locked and loaded on Sunday, it's like, bro, 517 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: where are you on Friday and Saturday when we were 518 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: doing the walkthrough on Saturday? So you lose some credibility 519 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: and you're not all in seven three sixty five. And 520 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 1: that's always been his brand, and it's honestly even unfair 521 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: to say the word brand. That's been him, and now 522 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: it kind of feels like he's teeter tottering back and forth. 523 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 1: To me, this is less about Gazelle and the marriage. 524 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 1: All assume they haven't liked each other in years. To me, 525 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: this is more now about Tom kind of becoming like 526 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 1: an NBA player. I could just go and come as 527 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: I please. How does that usually happen? You know? That's 528 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: I just you know, you're not like Lebron at thirty 529 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: two years old, because football you are very dependent on 530 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: other people. The other thing is Tom like part of 531 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 1: his football story was he had no life. It was 532 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: just all football all the time during the season. And 533 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 1: now it feels like he's just kind of wishy washy, 534 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: and it's it's kind of weird and but also kind 535 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: of understandable. He's forty five years old. Maybe he's just 536 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 1: ran out of juice. Uh. It's pretty clear that he's 537 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 1: not gonna play after this year, and the Bucks got 538 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,439 Speaker 1: some issues, so uh, I would say that. You know, 539 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 1: remember Tom won that Super Bowl, everyone acted like Bill 540 00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 1: is a village idiot. Now he's winning games with Billy's 541 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 1: app and he made the playoffs with Mac Jones. I 542 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: would say Bills gaining some traction. He's not passing Tom 543 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,719 Speaker 1: because Tom has that Super Bowl, but he's you know, 544 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 1: in terms of the separation, he's earned some credibility back 545 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 1: uh really quick on Brian day Ball. The first game 546 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,360 Speaker 1: I ever attended in the NFL was when I got 547 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: hired by the Eagles and I started going to Eagles games. 548 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 1: And obviously, when you work in the NFL, you spend 549 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: so much time immersed in your division. And you know, 550 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: when I was there, the Cowboys had Tony Romo, They're 551 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: a big deal. Eli Tom Coughlin had already won a 552 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. The football team was pretty terrible. They were 553 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: called the Redskins then, even though I think by like 554 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: my second year, they traded for r G three and 555 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: that became a big deal. But that division is a 556 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 1: really big deal, and it's cool getting to be just 557 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 1: kind of really because I'm a West Coast guy like 558 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: I forty Niners, Chargers, you know, Broncos Raiders like those. 559 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 1: That was kind of the world I lived in the 560 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: majority of my life growing up. Obviously you watched teams 561 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 1: on television, but like I wasn't inundated with NFC East 562 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 1: most of my life, especially the New York Giants. Now 563 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: I knew about the New York Giants because I'm a 564 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 1: big football fan and the rivalry with Bill Walls should 565 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 1: Bill Parcels. But once you kind of live it and 566 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 1: go into game year in year out and seeing that team, 567 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 1: and I think my second year in the league they 568 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 1: won their second Super Bowl, the year they beat the 569 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: Patriots again. One thing that I was always blown away 570 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: with with the New York Giants teams want Tom Coughlin 571 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: was just a badass. One time I tried to give 572 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: him my seat at the combine and he like wouldn't 573 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 1: take it. He's just such a nice guy. But he's 574 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: like an intense guy, but he's just just a high 575 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: level guy and he was just very impressive. Everyone around 576 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: the NFL always thought very highly of Tom Coughlin. Of 577 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: course they did. I mean, he's a Parcels Belichick disciple, right, 578 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 1: but his teams and the New York Giants teams with 579 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 1: Parcels and Coughlin were just so tough. Like to me, 580 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: that was I just remember their offensive line and defensive 581 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: lines one were massive and they were physical, and to me, 582 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: they weren't. I guess they got Victor Cruz when I 583 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: was around them. But they weren't the sexiest, flashiest team. 584 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: They were just tough m efforts and that's really what 585 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 1: Tom Coughlin hung his hat on and a couple of 586 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:14,959 Speaker 1: Super Bowl victors. They were not the best teams. They 587 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: weren't some like thirteen win powerhouses. But when it mattered 588 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: on the road against Green Bay and the frigid cold, 589 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: on the road against Hardball and Alex Smith in a rainstorm, 590 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: against Belichick and Brady twice, they could just throw haymakers, 591 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: throw blows and take them back and handle it because 592 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,239 Speaker 1: they were built of high character, tough guys led by 593 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: Coughlin and the Giants. Ever since that kind of unraveled 594 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: have been a joke. They've had no identity. It's like, 595 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 1: who are these guys? This is not the Coughlin Parcels 596 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 1: franchise that have had so much success and been one 597 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 1: of the biggest brands in the league. Well, you're watching 598 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 1: this team now, and I don't think they're quite built 599 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: like some of those Coughlin Parcels teams, but they have 600 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: a toughness to them and they have just they're not 601 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 1: beating themselves these last two weeks. To beat Rogers across 602 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: the Pond and then today to beat Lamar Jackson is 603 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: really impressive. And Daniel Jones now in their last three games. 604 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones the first couple of years of his career 605 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 1: turn over machine, picks, fumbles, just a disaster. And I 606 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 1: remember when he got drafted, I thought it was insane. 607 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: Now I'll be honest, I didn't know that much about him, 608 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: you know, guy from Duke, And I remember tweeting like 609 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: this is the worst pick ever. And I had a 610 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: buddy who does the secs, like, actually, I think Daniel 611 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 1: Jones is pretty solid. Now. Should he be in the 612 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: six pick? No, But I do think he's got some 613 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: Alex Smith to him. And this was the good Alex 614 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: Smith on the Kanca Chiefs. And you watched Daniel Jones 615 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: these last couple of weeks under Brian day Ball. He's 616 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,959 Speaker 1: kind of just doing that, playing within himself, not throwing picks, 617 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 1: and they are just staying in games. And what was 618 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: the reason they won today? At the end of the game, 619 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, who I've become a fan of, does the 620 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: dumbest play of the day. He scrambles around, scrambles around, 621 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: throws it across his body, easy pick. A couple of 622 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: plays later, Giants have the game winning pick or game 623 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: winning touchdown. So the reason that Lamar Jackson loses to 624 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones is because one guy throws a backbreaking interception 625 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 1: and then he actually ended up having another fumble. But whatever, 626 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 1: But the the interception cost the Ravens the game, and 627 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones is not turning the ball over. To me, 628 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: that's a reflection to Dable because they don't even have 629 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 1: the horses yet. This year, they drafted the offensive line 630 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: and they drafted Cavan Who did he get his first sack? 631 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: Was it last week or this week? I think it 632 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 1: might have been this week because he was crying and 633 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: they're just tough. And if they start drafting well over 634 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: these next couple of years, Like I don't think this 635 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: team's winning playoff games next year. Maybe I'm underestimating. Maybe 636 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: is really good. I don't necessarily see the talent. Look 637 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: at the guys that are catching passes for them. I mean, 638 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: Sae Kwon Barkley has looked phenomenal. He's got his explosiveness back. 639 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: He just looks like an awesome running back again. He 640 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 1: looks like the guy probably shouldn't have been drafted number 641 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 1: two overall, but was like one of the best running 642 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: back prospects of the last decade. And Brian dave Ball 643 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: deserves a lot of credit because the Giants are kind 644 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: of getting back to their roots and last but not least, 645 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: before we get out of here, the Kyler Murray contract 646 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 1: is a complete Nutter disaster. Uh under no circumstances. It 647 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: wasn't a hot take when everyone with the brain kept saying, 648 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: why are you going to pay this guy? In what 649 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 1: world would you pay this guy when you don't have 650 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 1: to just because he's causing a stink. Make him earn it, 651 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: have him play another season, make him earn the contract. 652 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: Because if they had made him earn the contract under 653 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: no circumstances, would they be willing to give him this money. 654 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: The way this is going, I'm not saying it's gonna 655 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: be one of the worst contracts in NFL history, but 656 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 1: it's got the opportunity to be one of the worst 657 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: contracts in NFL history. They paid him a hundred sixty 658 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: hundred seventy million dollars guaranteed he did not leave a 659 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 1: touchdown drive. Today. They were playing Seattle, whose defense has 660 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: been atrocious, one of the worst defense in the league. 661 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:13,280 Speaker 1: He did not lead a touchdown drive today. They cannot 662 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 1: score points. That It happens week in and week out, 663 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: especially in the first half today. They didn't score point 664 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 1: really all game long. If it wasn't for a block punt, 665 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: they would have had no touchdowns, no touchdowns. You're paying 666 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 1: a guy forty five million dollars, and I get Hopkins 667 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 1: isn't around. This guy is just a fantastic athlete. He's 668 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: just beside run around. If it does not become backyard football, 669 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 1: he is struggling to play the position. Now they're playing 670 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 1: Thursday night football against the Saints at home. You're paying 671 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,479 Speaker 1: forty five million dollars. If they were to lose that game, 672 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 1: to be two and five with a forty five million 673 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 1: dollar quarterback who's fully healthy. If you talk about like 674 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: in a redo, but they shouldn't even need a redo. 675 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,400 Speaker 1: They never should have done it in the first place. 676 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,400 Speaker 1: It is just a disaster. Man, you watch him, they 677 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:02,959 Speaker 1: are lifeless. His body language is always so lethargic. I've 678 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,760 Speaker 1: never disputed his physical gifts, his arm strength, his ability 679 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 1: to run his deep ball accuracy when he hits the balls, 680 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: but he also can look terrible. I mean, balls can 681 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 1: come out of his hands in the middle of nowhere. 682 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 1: He takes terrible sacks. Right now he is he's got 683 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,359 Speaker 1: to be a bottom five quarterback in the NFL. I mean, 684 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 1: Gino Smith outplayed him today pretty easily. Uh now, it's 685 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 1: not saying much. Geno Smith has been, you know, like 686 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 1: a top fifteen quarterback this year. But Kyler forty five million. 687 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 1: Think about the guys that have been paid the last 688 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 1: couple of years. Josh Allen Star kept kicking ass, Patrick 689 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 1: Mahomes Star kept kicking ass, even Dak Prescott, who got 690 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 1: forty million dollars last year off the ankle. They went 691 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:48,400 Speaker 1: twelve and five, won the division. Kyle, they're two and 692 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:52,720 Speaker 1: four and then they are headed nowhere fast. So should 693 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:54,720 Speaker 1: just listen to me, man, never would have paid Kyler 694 00:35:54,760 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 1: and you would have your options open A and the 695 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 1: volume
