1 00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: This is the best of two pros and a couple 2 00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:08,080 Speaker 1: Joe with Labar arings and rating Winn and Jonas Knox 3 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:11,200 Speaker 1: on radio. 4 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:16,159 Speaker 2: All Right, so I just want to ask ask a 5 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:20,479 Speaker 2: question here and I'll lay it out to you. This 6 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 2: is not anything that's immediate. It's not anything that you 7 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 2: look at and go, oh, well, it's got to get 8 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 2: done right now. But it is interesting considering some of 9 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:35,159 Speaker 2: the commentaries, some of the quotes from the people in 10 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 2: Green Bay and by people in Green Bay. I talk 11 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 2: about the guy who's now going to be running the 12 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 2: show there soon to be Team President ed Policy, who 13 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 2: spoke about his philosophy on contract extensions for head coaches, 14 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 2: and basically, to sum it up, he looked at Matt 15 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 2: Lafleur and Brian Gudacunz to have two years left on 16 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 2: their deal and said, yeah, you know, we're not quite 17 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 2: ready to give them the contract extension yet. But I 18 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 2: would say not all the time. I'm generally opposed to 19 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 2: guys going into a lame duck situation. Well, if that's 20 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: the case, then this is a big year because if 21 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 2: you don't want anybody going into a lame duck situation, 22 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 2: then what you're saying, is this conversation next year is 23 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 2: a bigger deal because I'd like to get that done 24 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 2: before they go into the final year of their contracts. 25 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 2: And I'm going to ask the question, which I think 26 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 2: maybe people listening in Wisconsin right now are probably kind 27 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 2: of wondering as well too, what else would Matt Lafleur 28 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 2: and Brian Gudakunz need to do to garner that extension, 29 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 2: because if you ask me, they've been fantastic, especially over 30 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 2: the past few years, and this is not been an 31 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 2: easy transition for them. You walked away from Rogers after 32 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 2: being criticized for the move to go out and draft 33 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 2: at Jordan Love, You've gone to NFC title games, You've 34 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 2: been to the playoffs. As far as record wise, there's 35 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 2: only three teams who have had a better record since 36 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 2: Matt Lafleor has taken over there in the NFL. That 37 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 2: would be the Ravens, Bills, and Chiefs. All of those 38 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 2: teams are AFC teams. So in the NFC alone, the 39 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 2: Packers have had the best record since Matt laflor got there. 40 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 2: And yet Ed Policy is sitting there talking about, well, 41 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 2: you know, we'd like to see maybe a little bit 42 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 2: more from them. If what he's saying is true that 43 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,119 Speaker 2: I don't want them going into a lame duck situation. 44 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 2: I'm just not ready to give them a contract yet. 45 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 2: Why wouldn't you Why would you even let this be 46 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 2: a conversation next year, Because even if they did have 47 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 2: a down year for whatever reason, I still think they've 48 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: warranted a contract extension. Both of those guys. 49 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 3: I think it's a valid question, and it's a valid 50 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 3: angle to take on the situation. I think that you're 51 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 3: right and uh and and and looking at it from 52 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 3: the standpoint of they have gotten results, uh with with 53 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 3: being in the positions that they've been in. I think 54 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 3: there are generally specific situations where certain things apply, Like 55 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 3: you use the term lame duck coach or even lame duck, 56 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,959 Speaker 3: you know, GM, I don't think that they're lame ducks 57 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 3: if they don't get the extension. I think that it 58 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 3: becomes more pressure on the person that didn't make that decision, 59 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like that you're you're now 60 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 3: talking about you know, this is not an owner ran organization. 61 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 3: It's owned by the fans, and and so even policy 62 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 3: has people that he has to answer to. I believe 63 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 3: there's a board or whatever it is that you know 64 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 3: he has to answer to. I think this puts more 65 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 3: pressure on the decision makers who who do the contract 66 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 3: extensions or do the new contracts, whatever it is that 67 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 3: they how they do it. And I think that that 68 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 3: becomes the main conversation. And so while while you'll say, well, 69 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 3: if he's saying he wants to see more, then I 70 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 3: just take it at face value, jonas they want us, 71 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 3: he wants to see more and whatever. 72 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 4: It could be in context. 73 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 3: It could be I want to see more as in 74 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 3: just more games being played. It might not just be 75 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 3: I want to see more as in I need to 76 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 3: see them win a Super Bowl. They just might be 77 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 3: I just want to see more before I make the decision, 78 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 3: the final decision. It could be basing the value not 79 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 3: so much am I going to do the contract. It 80 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 3: could be how much do I want to pay for 81 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 3: the contract contracts that that are involved. 82 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 2: I mean, they've been to the playoffs every year except 83 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 2: for one under Matt Lafleur, and if say this year 84 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 2: there's an injury to quarterback god forbid, or they you know, 85 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 2: run up with just bad injury luck. Stuff that's outside 86 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 2: of their control and say they have a down year, 87 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: and for Matt laflora down year is eight and nine. 88 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 2: That's what he did a couple of years ago. Now 89 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 2: you go into next season, like, why why would this 90 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 2: even need to be a conversation, because I think then 91 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 2: the question would become, well, why are you giving him 92 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 2: a contract extension? Now? Why didn't you just do it 93 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 2: the previous year? And again, this is not like it's 94 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 2: time sensitive, It's not like, well, you know, they have 95 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 2: to get it done. It's just interesting to hear him 96 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 2: make the comment that I don't I don't generally like 97 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 2: people going into lame duck situations. I think, you know, 98 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 2: going into that final year, we kind of have an 99 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 2: understanding where the relationship is at. Well, no, you should 100 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 2: have an understanding where the relationship and the work is 101 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 2: at based on the work that they've already done, like 102 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 2: Dave done. They've done a hell of a job taking 103 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 2: over in a difficult spot with a quarterback change. Part 104 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 2: of like Matt Lafleur has proven his worth that hey, 105 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 2: this isn't a lot of the discussion about Lafleur when 106 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 2: he got the job was well can he do it 107 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 2: without Aaron Rodgers. Okay, like he has I mean, yeah, 108 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 2: have they won a Super Bowl? No, they haven't won 109 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 2: a super Bowl. But if you're grading on that scale, well, 110 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 2: if you want your contract extension, you're gonna have to 111 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 2: win a super Bowl. There's thirty one dudes at the 112 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 2: end of the year that are like, oh, I guess 113 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 2: I'm not getting a contract extension. It just it feels 114 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 2: it feels like you're setting this up to be a 115 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 2: bigger discussion next year, when you could just squash it 116 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 2: and get it done with now because he's already earned it. 117 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 3: That just seems like that would be the simple, sensible 118 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 3: way of approaching it. But you just never know the 119 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 3: what and the why for certain things that take place. 120 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 3: It could just be as simple as they want to Wait, 121 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 3: it could be very simple like no hidding, uh, you know, 122 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 3: hitting agendas or anything like that, no secret operations. 123 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 4: It just they mean what they say. 124 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 3: It could be they're trying to set a tone, and 125 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 3: you know, culture is is something that is a really 126 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 3: big deal, you know, in all things that take place. 127 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 3: So I don't know, maybe they're setting a tone for 128 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 3: the players, you know, don't approach us about extensions and 129 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 3: stuff like that. We don't even do it for our 130 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 3: GM and for our head coach. I don't really know 131 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 3: what the purpose is. I just know you're right. They 132 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 3: continue to get results. They have been considered to be 133 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 3: a competitive team. It didn't end the way that they 134 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 3: would have liked for it to end. It Last year 135 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 3: seemed like there was a bit of a drop off. 136 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 3: But this team this year, with the personnel that they have, 137 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 3: there really should be no reason why they're not right 138 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 3: in the thick of it coming out of the NFC. 139 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 4: And I mean for Super Bowl challenge. To get to 140 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 4: the Super Bowl, that's how. 141 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 3: Good I think this Green Bay Packers team you can 142 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 3: be going into this season. So you know, they have 143 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 3: put together a really, really fine roster and just maybe 144 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 3: they're looking at it like, look at what you have 145 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 3: on this roster, My guy, My guys, you need to 146 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 3: show that what we got going on here with this personnel, 147 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 3: you can drive this car. Now, what direction do you 148 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 3: go in if you go away from Lafleur after he's 149 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 3: done what he's done. It comes back to my original 150 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 3: point Jonas that I'll lean into is that that puts 151 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 3: more pressure on the decision makers who didn't make the 152 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 3: move to keep the GM or to keep the head 153 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 3: coach because they were getting positive getting positive results. 154 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 2: That divisions, in my mind, one of the more interesting 155 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 2: in the NFL, just based on the fact that I 156 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 2: have no idea really what to expect, because I could 157 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 2: see a world where Detroit runs it back because they 158 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,839 Speaker 2: are so talented. But then again, you lose both your coordinators. 159 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 2: We know how this league works. Like they had a 160 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 2: lot of things land in their favor last year, you 161 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 2: can't really expect that to happen two years in a row. 162 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 2: Last year felt like their year. They could be set 163 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 2: up for a down year. Minnesota is putting all their 164 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 2: faith as we laid out earlier this week in JJ McCarthy, 165 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 2: who's in essence a rookie, he's never played before, and 166 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 2: they feel like, yeah, that's why we just said no 167 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 2: to Aaron Rodgers. That's why we're going this direction, because 168 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,199 Speaker 2: it was Jeremy Fowler reported. They've got this three year 169 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 2: super Bowl plan. The Bears have added a bunch of 170 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 2: talent to help Caleb Williams. Ben Johnson's a newcomer there, 171 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 2: and then you've got the Packers and it's almost like 172 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 2: I have you could set any order other than maybe 173 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 2: the Bears winning the division and after that, But you 174 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 2: could set any order in that division before the year, 175 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 2: and I would buy into and could see those scenarios 176 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 2: play out. In the NFC North, it's just a really 177 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 2: really wild division to try and project going into next season. 178 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 3: It'll be a fun it'll be a fun division to 179 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 3: watch and to track what direction as Minnesota, you know, 180 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 3: trending in. It's hard, Like you said, it's kind of 181 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 3: hard to pinpoint what you think they'll be. I think 182 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 3: we'll probably find out pretty quickly what type of team 183 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 3: they'll look like. I wonder if we'll be able to 184 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 3: get an idea of it in preseason. Probably really hard 185 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 3: to do. But it'll be interesting to see how much 186 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 3: they play McCarthy to get him reps, impactful reps before 187 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 3: they get to the regular season. I think what Sam 188 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 3: Darnold did this past season puts a lot of pressure 189 00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 3: on JJ McCarthy to come out of the gate swinging big, 190 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 3: and you know, people are going to want to know 191 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 3: what that looks like. And when you look at the 192 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 3: other teams, people are, like you mentioned, like that, there's 193 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 3: there's some relative unknowns with Chicago and what they're going 194 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 3: to do. 195 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,559 Speaker 4: But a lot of people are excited about. 196 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 3: The you know, the coaching higher that they made and 197 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 3: what that could mean for the future. But again, you know, 198 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 3: the way Caleb Williams talked about how things were done 199 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 3: and a lack of attention to him knowing what you know, 200 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 3: he needed to do, and you know, the development that 201 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 3: he was was seeking wasn't there this this past season. 202 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 3: I think that puts a lot of pressure on him, 203 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 3: and it puts a lot of pressure on this coaching 204 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 3: staff because if he doesn't have a good year, which 205 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 3: he didn't have a bad year this year. Just I 206 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 3: just think the expectations are so high that and and 207 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 3: then to see the comp and and what jayde Daniels 208 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 3: did in his rookie year and what you know, obviously 209 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 3: Stroud did in. 210 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 4: His year prior to his rookie year. 211 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,599 Speaker 3: I think that people had high expectations for Caleb Williams 212 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 3: to be something more than what he ended up being. 213 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 3: But I don't think that he's not on schedule to 214 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 3: be a superstar franchise quarterback in this league. But it 215 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 3: is still a conversation to be had. So and then 216 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 3: you look at losing all of your coordinators and Detroit 217 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 3: what does that look like? But they get Hutchinson back, 218 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 3: which is a big get. I think that they're still 219 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 3: poised to have a good year. I think it's going 220 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 3: to be pretty competitive. But as you mentioned, I do 221 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 3: believe that this is a pivotal year for a team 222 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 3: like Green Bay because of the amount of talent that 223 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 3: they have on the team. You know, and that's the 224 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 3: ultimately the reality that Matt Lafleur and goun Kunz's is 225 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 3: facing going into this season. You have no reason, with 226 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,959 Speaker 3: all of the questions surrounding your division to come out 227 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 3: on top of your division. 228 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 2: You know, what's a And you pointed this out before, 229 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 2: but this it bears repeating because people probably take whatever 230 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 2: the narrative or the optics are and run with that 231 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 2: as opposed to the actual numbers. Kileb Williams didn't have 232 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 2: a bad year. I mean, if you just go back 233 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 2: and look through and look through the numbers, you could 234 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 2: argue he had a better year than Jordan Love, he 235 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,839 Speaker 2: had a better year than Jalen Hurts. Again, these are 236 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 2: just numbers. We're just looking at numbers. But it's funny 237 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 2: how just based on the presentation of the chaos that 238 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 2: was the Bears last year. How people just assume, all 239 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 2: another number one pick who didn't pan out, or another 240 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 2: high drafted quarterback who didn't pan out. It's like, that's 241 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 2: one to look at and go, all right, well, if 242 00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 2: he was able to do that and operate in that 243 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 2: circus tent, what could he do potentially in this one 244 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 2: this year when things are a little bit more buttoned 245 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 2: up and there's actual protection on the offensive line and 246 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 2: all that. It's just it's funny when you bring that up, 247 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 2: how people look at the storyline as opposed to the 248 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 2: actual numbers and watch game by game to see what 249 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 2: actually was going on last year in Chicago. 250 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 3: I mean, I just think it still raises the stakes 251 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 3: that he blamed, you know, and he took, Like, make 252 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 3: no mistake about Caleb Williams took a lot of the 253 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 3: blame on his own shoulders. So let's not act as 254 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 3: though he was brushing off the responsibility of taking taking 255 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 3: the weight of why the team didn't do better than 256 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 3: what it did. 257 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 4: But he did raise some points that. 258 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 3: Basically would lean towards the side of why the hell 259 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 3: would you do that when you had that type of 260 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 3: a talent. Why would you allow for him to feel 261 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 3: that way when and he's your number one draft pick 262 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 3: and what people had such high expectations and high hopes 263 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 3: for coming into it. It seems as though you didn't 264 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 3: like your job very much as a head coach. If 265 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 3: that's how you let things get handled. 266 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 2: It's the bears. Well maybe that's a simple explanation, which 267 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 2: is crazy. 268 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 3: It's just crazy to think at the pro level, and 269 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 3: we talk about how hard guys fight to get coaching 270 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 3: jobs and how many worthy prospects are out there. Then 271 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 3: people get into the whole inclusion deal and stuff like that. 272 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 3: There's all kinds of different conversations, but it is so competitive. 273 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 3: There's only thirty two of those positions out there. So 274 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 3: to think that one of those thirty two, you have 275 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 3: the number one overall draft pick, a former Heisman Trophy winner, 276 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 3: a very very gifted and talented player coming into your organization, 277 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 3: and you all of that on the table in terms 278 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 3: of how you prepared him, how you trained him, and 279 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 3: what his knowledge level of what it was going to 280 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 3: look like and be like going into these games at 281 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 3: the pro level, it's kind of a hit scratcher. 282 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros 283 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: and a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Errington, 284 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: and Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern three am 285 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app. 286 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 2: I would like to give a shout out here. There 287 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 2: were some people that were critical of the decision by 288 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 2: Miles Garrett earlier this offseason to not participate with the 289 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 2: team at OTAs after signing that big contract and instead 290 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 2: going to Japan to be with his girlfriend. At the time, 291 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 2: some people were critical of it. They did not think 292 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 2: that that was showing true leadership. I think that Miles 293 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 2: Garrett is owed an apology. I think there should be 294 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 2: an apology that comes immediately to Miles Garrett from people 295 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 2: that were critical of him, because clearly he is showing leadership. 296 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 2: Since should Or Sanders just got popped for going forty 297 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 2: one miles an hour over the speed limit there in Ohio, 298 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 2: so clearly the influence. 299 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 4: Of Miles you have to do. 300 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 2: Well because Miles Garrett had an issue with that. You know, 301 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 2: he's had an issue with speeding and there's been a 302 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 2: couple of things that have popped up. Clearly he was 303 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 2: able to provide true leadership there in the sense that 304 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,719 Speaker 2: should or Sanders is driving around Ohio early Tuesday morning 305 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 2: and the guy's driving one on one in a sixty 306 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 2: I mean, what are we doing here? 307 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 4: You know what I mean? 308 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 3: Those who have not speed speeded be the first one 309 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 3: to cast the stone. 310 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 4: I'm just it's not sped speeded? 311 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 2: Is it speeded? 312 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 4: I would think it was be sped. 313 00:17:55,760 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought it was sped those who have not sped. Okay, 314 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 2: you could be right, yeah, whatever could be right clean? 315 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 4: I like speed it better. 316 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I don't. 317 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 4: We don't have to clean it up. 318 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 2: All right. 319 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 3: This talk radio we talk every day on this bad Boy. 320 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 3: We're changing I'm change it. 321 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 2: Yeah all right. So, so Miles Garrett was caught speeded 322 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 2: it last year and I think maybe the year before. 323 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 5: Lee. 324 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 2: Can you can you double check how many times Miles 325 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 2: Garrett's been popped for speeded it in. 326 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 3: I've seen at least twice, with a high of one 327 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 3: to twenty one hundred miles per hour and sixty five 328 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 3: and twenty twenty also in twenty twenty two. 329 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true leadership. And for those of you that 330 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 2: are trying to be critical, Miles Garrett again, you know 331 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 2: the guy in apology? All right, shod Or Sanders hasn't 332 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 2: even taken a real snap with the team yet and 333 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 2: he's already going forty one miles an hour in over 334 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 2: the sixty speed limit there. 335 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 3: I mean, I feel like it is a word too 336 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 3: bad the way it is a word. I might have 337 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 3: used it improperly, but it is a word. It's proper grammar. 338 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,920 Speaker 3: Just so we're clear, now, can we talk about the 339 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 3: bigger issue here. 340 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 2: Which is what the fact that you said during. 341 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:13,679 Speaker 3: It's not it's not Miles Garrett being a proper example 342 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 3: of how to drive over the speed limit. It's not 343 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 3: him not being there for mini camp. It's does this 344 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 3: genuinely call for concern with Shador Sanders? 345 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 2: You said he should you said he should be cut 346 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:31,439 Speaker 2: during the break? Did you not? Did you not know? 347 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 3: I don't know why you jumping out there like that. 348 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 3: I mean, because people take things and they run with it. 349 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 3: And then there's the quote of the day, so you're 350 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 3: dack that. Please take it back, take that one out. 351 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 4: Please? 352 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 3: Did I say anything to you about anything like that 353 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 3: during the break? Jonas knocks, No, sir, you did not, Okay, 354 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 3: thank you, thank you, thank you. 355 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 4: Yeah. 356 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 3: So do not run with the fact that Jonahs said 357 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,919 Speaker 3: LeVar Arrington said during the break, like during our our 358 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 3: real conversations, that I said he should be cut, but 359 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 3: as I did not. In fact, my question becomes the 360 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 3: people that are going to cut him. I wonder have 361 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 3: they ever sped above the speed limit before? You know, 362 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,400 Speaker 3: have they ever gone close to one hundred miles per 363 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 3: hour and a sixty mile per hour zone? Like when 364 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 3: you hear it and it's somebody else, you know, you 365 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,880 Speaker 3: have an ability to be able to say, oh, my gosh, 366 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 3: you mean it was sixty miles per hour and they 367 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 3: were going one hundred. You know, Like, let me tell 368 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 3: you something. The way these cars are made these days, 369 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 3: it's not hard to hit one hundred miles per per 370 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 3: hour the way it feels. I'm just telling you, it's 371 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,959 Speaker 3: not hard. The first time, it doesn't feel like you're 372 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 3: out one hundred miles per hour. 373 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,439 Speaker 2: The first time I was ever in a Tesla, the 374 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 2: guy it was in an uber and the guy got 375 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 2: on the freeway and I remember he was on the 376 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 2: freeway on ramp and he was literally in traffic in 377 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 2: a second and a half, like like Tesla's are unbelievable. 378 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 3: Wick, so and it's not you know, and most people 379 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:13,400 Speaker 3: in California are driving Tesla's, So this isn't a rich 380 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 3: people problem. 381 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 4: Don't make this like this is like oh this entitled kid. 382 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 3: He yeah, for some of us, like like me, Jonas, 383 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 3: we drive trucks, they can't even go past forty miles 384 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 3: per hour. 385 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 4: Past okay, we can't and go past forty miles per hour. 386 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 3: So so forget forget your door Sanders, Hey, Like, this 387 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 3: isn't about talking about him being cut bro. All this 388 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 3: is is a young man driving his car and got 389 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 3: pulled over for speeding. 390 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 4: It's as simple as that. 391 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 2: He was driving a truck. It was not a cyber 392 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 2: truck Tesla, but he was. I believe it was a 393 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 2: Dodge if if my memory serves me correct. So he's 394 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 2: driving a Dodge truck and he got a listen, the 395 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 2: new any newer car can get you to where you 396 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 2: want to go a lot faster than the old ones. Now, 397 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 2: you took a little bit of a pot shot at 398 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 2: me there. Uh, I completely disrespectful. I'm sorry, but also accurate. 399 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 2: If my truck went over one hundred miles an hour, 400 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 2: it would literally disappear like it would time warp back 401 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 2: to two thousand and six when it was made and go, 402 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 2: let's start over again. This is a bad idea. 403 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 6: This is not this is you believe magic man, noe, 404 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 6: you doan god have a memory, start having memories of 405 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 6: the truck when it was born. 406 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 2: God would literally God would literally may wave a magic 407 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 2: wand over my truck and go ho da and it's 408 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 2: back to two thousand. There's no shot by. 409 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 3: Trucking into one on one, so you skipping around the 410 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 3: truck giving it hugs. 411 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 2: But one of the one of the details that did 412 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 2: come out in this was that apparently Shudor Sanders he 413 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 2: can pay the two hundred and fifty dollars fine two dollars, okay, 414 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 2: or he could in court. Now from personal experience, I 415 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,440 Speaker 2: tried to fight a speeding ticket in court. I showed 416 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 2: up to court because it was way advanced, way after 417 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 2: the ticket, and I showed up in court, think and 418 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 2: there's no way this CoP's gonna be the cops. Before 419 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 2: before anything started, guy taps me on the shoulder and says, hey, 420 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 2: just wanted to show you the proof of your speeding. 421 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 2: And I literally got up and left, it's a waste 422 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,880 Speaker 2: of time. There's no chance I'll go to your driving 423 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,199 Speaker 2: school or whatever I gotta do to make sure I 424 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 2: don't have a point on my insurance record. But there's 425 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 2: no chance in hell I'm gonna win this based on 426 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 2: the fact that that guy showed up, And I'd imagine 427 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 2: this guy will show up to it sure. 428 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 3: Saying well, it doesn't matter if he fights it or 429 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,679 Speaker 3: if he doesn't his personal business, how it impacts his 430 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 3: insurance or anything like that is a whole different conversation 431 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 3: that isn't worth broaching. But in terms of how this 432 00:23:56,520 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 3: this is a story, because we all know that the 433 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 3: elephant in the room is he is indeed the last 434 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 3: string quarterback on a four quarterback five quarterbacks on the 435 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 3: roster team. 436 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 4: That's what made lay, That's what makes this a conversation. 437 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 3: Is this egregious enough if people want to be honest 438 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 3: about why this is a topic. 439 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:25,360 Speaker 4: The topic of. 440 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 3: Concern here is is this bad enough for Shador Sanders 441 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 3: to actually caused himself a job? 442 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 4: And I would say. 443 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:41,719 Speaker 3: If you lean on the side of quarterbacks have a 444 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 3: different level of accountability, a different level of responsibility, and 445 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 3: how they conduct themselves and how they do things than 446 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 3: other players. 447 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 4: It could be perceived. 448 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 3: As a judgment called that this young man isn't ready 449 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 3: to be a leader, and those you open yourself up 450 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 3: for that type of scrutiny and that type of criticism 451 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 3: when you do things that you know don't pan out 452 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 3: the way that you like. He probably wasn't even thinking 453 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 3: nothing of it. He's driving, He's probably either on his 454 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 3: Bluetooth his hands free device, talking on the phone. He's 455 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 3: maybe listening to his music. Cats be turning up while 456 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 3: they'd be driving, listening to the music, whatever it may be. Right, 457 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 3: he probably wasn't paying no attention to the fact that 458 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 3: he was speeding, and that very well could be the 459 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 3: conversation that he has with the coaching staff. But I 460 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 3: think that's what the transition to me goes to, is 461 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 3: what was the conversation between Shador Sanders and the coaches 462 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 3: that he has to talk to. 463 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 4: Because ultimately the. 464 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 3: Only reason why this is a story is because of 465 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 3: how much how much attention there has been paid to 466 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,640 Speaker 3: what do you do with Shador Sanders? 467 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 2: Hundred percent? 468 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:00,880 Speaker 1: Right? 469 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 4: This does this dictate? God? 470 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just like I would I would imagine and 471 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 2: Jordan Addison waking up behind the wheel outside of lax problem, 472 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 2: that's a problem, okay, Like that's a little bit of 473 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,439 Speaker 2: an issue. We need to have a discussion about that. 474 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 2: And then him going to social media afterwards and posting 475 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 2: a bottle of booze like probably not you know that 476 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 2: that that feels like that's a bit reckless. This could 477 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 2: be a guy and that did to your point, didn't 478 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 2: even realize he was speeding. But it also lends to 479 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,120 Speaker 2: the actual old well, hey knew. 480 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 4: He was speeding. 481 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 3: Well, he probably knew he was speeding, but pretty much, 482 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 3: hey man, pretty much everybody speed when when you when 483 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,919 Speaker 3: you're driving on a highway, which I don't even know 484 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 3: what if he was on a highway, I'm assuming sixty 485 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,679 Speaker 3: miles per hour he was on some type of a highway. Bruh, 486 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 3: everybody is generally driving above the speed limit. Like, make 487 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 3: no mistake about that. Now, now is forty miles per 488 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 3: hour over the speed limit? Egregious, Yes it is. There's 489 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 3: no doubt about it. You're going fast. He knew he 490 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,639 Speaker 3: was going fast. Question it, like, there's so many different 491 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 3: determining factors. Was he keeping up with traffic? Were there 492 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 3: other cars going as fast as he was. You know, 493 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 3: what was the scenario? Was he was he weaving? Was 494 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:29,160 Speaker 3: this reckless driving? Was he weaving in and out of traffic? 495 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,640 Speaker 3: I think if it's put in the proper context, then 496 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:37,160 Speaker 3: it allows for you to make a more accurate judgment 497 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 3: of how good or how bad the offense was. But 498 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 3: again it comes down to the conversations he's going to 499 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 3: have with his coaching stat because I don't. Ultimately, the 500 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 3: question now becomes did he do something that makes it 501 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 3: easier for Cleveland to you know, move. 502 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 2: On from him? 503 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 3: And I you know, I saw once again here we Go. 504 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 3: I'm a reference because I do listen to the other shows. 505 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 3: I saw a comment from the one Rob Parker where 506 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 3: he's basically saying they need to release him, they need 507 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 3: to cutting right now. 508 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 2: Based off of that Rob Robinson. 509 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 3: I mean, come on, Rob, you call him for this 510 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 3: man's job because he was he was speeding, like, come on, Rob. 511 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 7: I saw I saw Rob get a parking ticket at 512 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 7: KNBC when we were there, which he shouldn't have gotten, 513 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 7: and he was walking through the parking lot. 514 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 2: Like like Denzel Washington and training Day, take somebody out. 515 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 2: He looked like the guy in the wire walking through 516 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 2: the parking lot, trying to take somebody out because you 517 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 2: got a parking ticket on accident. If anybody should not 518 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 2: be talking about traffic violations and how this should impact 519 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 2: your career, it's Rob Parker. I saw it with my 520 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 2: own two we did a TV show Hockey. 521 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 4: I would loved. 522 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 2: There's no way he was able to keep a straight 523 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 2: face with that take. There's no way, no finances. 524 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 3: I just I just think that there's going to be 525 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 3: now he did himself no favors by getting pulled over. 526 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 3: But again, I think when you're in your own space, 527 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 3: you're driving, you're doing what you're doing your daily task. 528 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 3: I mean, we're being honest here. Man, Like the dude 529 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 3: was driving. If he was speeding, he was speeding, he 530 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 3: got the ticket, pay the fine or challenge it whatever. 531 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 3: I think what makes it complicated is if he were intoxicated, 532 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 3: if he were under the influence, like you mentioned earlier, 533 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 3: That now makes it a conversation, Jonas. But him speeding, 534 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 3: if he was racing, if it came out that he 535 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 3: was street racing somebody, that's a problem, But there doesn't 536 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 3: seem to be from the reports that I've seen. It's 537 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 3: just a simple he he was speeding, he got pulled over, 538 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,479 Speaker 3: he got a ticket. Keep it moving, man, and I mean, 539 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 3: let's keep it moving. 540 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 2: But this also does point out the fact that this 541 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 2: is a story because it's shah Or Sanders and this 542 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 2: is and people aren't you know, probably are gonna maybe 543 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 2: disagree with this, But there is something to being loud 544 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 2: when you're not the starter. It's not a great place 545 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 2: to be if kes's not loud. 546 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 4: He got pulled o. 547 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 2: But it's loud because first of all, the time of year, Okay, 548 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 2: the NBA Finals have gotten less interesting as the series 549 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 2: has gone on, especially the past couple of days, and 550 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 2: the time of year, the name that goes along with it, 551 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 2: and the fact that if this was Dylan Gabriel, probably 552 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 2: not a big story. If this was Kenny Pickett, probably 553 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 2: not a big story. If it was Joe Flacco, probably 554 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 2: not a big story. He's the loudest and most talked 555 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 2: about name in that room, and so because of it, 556 00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 2: he's going to get talked about at nauseum because it's 557 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 2: Shadoor Sanders and the quote unquote brand and ore that 558 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 2: he brings with him. The guy sped a little bit, 559 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 2: he got popped. He wasn't drinking and driving. This wasn't 560 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 2: a DUI situation. He didn't have some story made up. Remember, 561 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 2: Jordan Addison also had a story made up to where 562 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 2: he was speeding because he was trying to get his 563 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 2: dog to the vet. I got news for you. If 564 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 2: a CoP's behind me and I'm trying to get my 565 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 2: dog to the vet, I'm throwing that thing out the window. 566 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 3: Okay, sorry, Well, I'm gonna be honest with you. I 567 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 3: got news for you. If my dog is dying and 568 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 3: I can save them and I'm rushing them to the 569 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 3: pet emergency room, that cop is going to have to 570 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 3: meet me there and he can arrest me me at 571 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 3: the place where. 572 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 4: I'm taking my dog. 573 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 2: I'm blaming the dog. 574 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 4: I'm not blaming I'm I'm listen, and it is what 575 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 4: it is. It is what it is, mister Sticks. 576 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 3: Was if mister Sticks needed me to get him to 577 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 3: the emergency room, You're gonna have to follow me to 578 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 3: the emergency and in fact, you know, you know. 579 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 2: What I would do. I would actually put the dog 580 00:31:58,360 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 2: in the driver's seat and I had to hop in 581 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 2: thee so you can take You's so stupid and I'll 582 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 2: just I'll deal with the reprocessions when I get home. 583 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 4: Okay, Can I put a bow on this? Let me 584 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 4: put a bow on this. 585 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 3: From my perspective of Shador Sanders, there's there's there's a 586 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 3: few ways to look at it. The first way is 587 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 3: is this is this offense an out for the Cleveland Browns. 588 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 3: Do they leverage this as here's our golden, golden ticket 589 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:32,479 Speaker 3: hand delivered on a platter to us to be able 590 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 3: to part ways with Shador Sanders. That's that's that's option 591 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 3: number one. Option number two is you show Shador Sanders 592 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 3: that you believe in him, and you know mistakes are made. 593 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 3: You know, you got a ticket, pay your ticket, you know, 594 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 3: try not to get speeding ticket, Shador like, slow it down, 595 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 3: you know, don't do anything that's going to bring this 596 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 3: type of attention on to you. Uh, getting to get 597 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 3: in the locker room, getting the training room, getting a 598 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 3: meeting room, whatever, UH see you at practice? Is it 599 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 3: is it just as simple as you made a mistake 600 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 3: moving on? Or is this is this the opportunity for 601 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 3: them to say, yep, this is something that we can 602 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 3: leverage without getting cause it would take something crazy for 603 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 3: them to get out from under cutting Shadoor Sanders. What 604 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 3: is your reasoning for doing it? And this could be 605 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 3: the possible, you know, way that they can leverage something 606 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 3: to let them go. 607 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 2: You want to know why it's not an out for 608 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 2: the Browns to get away from Shore Sanders, because the 609 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 2: Browns already had an out to get away from Shore Sanders. 610 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 2: It was called the first four rounds of the draft. 611 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 2: Dang they want it in Hey, they allowed too many 612 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 2: highlights to come out. Bro they could not They could 613 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 2: not leverage his draft. They could not leverage his draft 614 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 2: pick for any further than what they were going to 615 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 2: be able to do when they first drafted him. You know, 616 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,480 Speaker 2: after all of the the OTA highlights that came out 617 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 2: and continuous coverage of Shador Sanders, they're not going to 618 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 2: be able to let him go based upon where he 619 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 2: was drafting because there's too much justification that he can 620 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 2: play at that level from the highlights that have been 621 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 2: released repeatedly of what he's doing in practices. Do you 622 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,360 Speaker 2: think if he shows up to court to fight the ticket, 623 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 2: that mel Kiper will also show up for support. Do 624 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 2: you think that will. 625 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:35,239 Speaker 3: Tell the judge that this is just a man that 626 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,399 Speaker 3: there's not enough scrutiny on in turn or there's too 627 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 3: much scrutiny on them, and you guys don't know how 628 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 3: quarterbacks drive trucks, and I don't know. 629 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 2: Man Melkiper will blame the traffic people and say, well, 630 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 2: you know, the speed limit sign wasn't visible enough for sure, 631 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 2: so that's why you should not have to pay this 632 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:54,280 Speaker 2: two fifty. 633 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 3: Just really unfortunate. It's just really truly unfortunate that you 634 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:03,839 Speaker 3: got to take something as trivial as getting pulled over 635 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,839 Speaker 3: for speeding. And again, the only reason why I'm saying 636 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 3: it because I'm not saying break the law. I mean, hell, 637 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 3: I was speeding this morning. You know, I was speeding. 638 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 3: You know, I think I was doing fifty and a 639 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:20,280 Speaker 3: thirty five this morning. Like sorry, I was just driving. 640 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 3: You know, I was driving my son's car. It's a 641 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 3: it's a it's a muscle car. It's one of them 642 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 3: chargers or whatever. Not not the charger, what's the bigger 643 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 3: body ones? Not not the charger, but the other one. 644 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 4: What is that? 645 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:37,240 Speaker 3: SRTs bro Come on, anyway, I was driving his car 646 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:41,320 Speaker 3: and it's fast, it's a strong car. So we're driving. 647 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 3: I'm driving I'm not purposely or being dismissive of the 648 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 3: speed limit. 649 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 4: I'm just driving. 650 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 3: So if there's nothing connected to him speeding, it's just 651 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 3: the speeding ticket. Moving on, there's no reason to have 652 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 3: no hot take Rob on saying this man needs to 653 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 3: be cut immediately because he got cited for speeding ticket. 654 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 4: Like, get out of here with that og.

It's not 689 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 5: like two million people in a parade. But you know, 690 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 5: we don't need to argue that and have to see 691 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 5: people to out Florida, you know, and and look like 692 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 5: that team is unbelievable. I mean, I don't know how 693 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 5: much of it you guys watched, but there were points 694 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 5: when that team was completely unstoppable with a real jumper 695 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:03,840 Speaker 5: or not. 696 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, they would go they would go on runs, and 697 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 2: it was like Edmonton, even with the best player in 698 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,520 Speaker 2: the world, had no there was no chance, yeah right, 699 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 2: just no opportunity. All right. So from everything, like, I've 700 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,319 Speaker 2: started to see stuff come out in the last couple 701 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 2: of days that the expectation or the want is that 702 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,479 Speaker 2: these Steelers and TJ. Watt can come to some sort 703 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 2: of a deal before training camp. We're looking at about 704 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,439 Speaker 2: a month away from that. Is that a realistic expectation 705 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 2: or is that stuff that's out there? 706 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 5: Yeah? Sure, I don't see why not. I mean, I 707 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 5: think the market to some degree has been defined. You know, 708 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 5: Max Crosby got a got a deal with the Neil Hunter. 709 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:41,879 Speaker 4: Got a deal. 710 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 5: You know. I think you know, we've seen now guys 711 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 5: steeper into their careers getting rewarded, you know, and and 712 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,279 Speaker 5: looks like I think TJ has got like a fair 713 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 5: amount of leverage here. This is built for him in 714 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 5: a lot of ways, you know, him and Samenka and 715 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:02,320 Speaker 5: Cam Hayward like going and getting Aaron Rodgers, Like that's 716 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 5: a swing for those guys at the swing for that core, 717 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 5: and you know, in that way, I think like tg 718 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 5: WAT kind of has them back into a corner a 719 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 5: little bit, you know, like this is not the year 720 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 5: where you fail around with stuff like that. So I 721 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 5: would think that they want to hit the ground running 722 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 5: up here answering all the questions. I'll spring when they 723 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 5: get the training camp, and I would think that they'll 724 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 5: be able to find some sort of middle ground. I 725 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,919 Speaker 5: don't know if it'll be before the certain training camp, 726 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:29,000 Speaker 5: and I think it's a realistic goal. A B. 727 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 3: Speaking of defensive ends getting paid, Miles Garrett got paid. 728 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:36,359 Speaker 3: Jonas Knox seems to think that he has had a 729 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 3: horrible impact and influence on his teammates, and one in particular, 730 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:45,840 Speaker 3: Shador Sanders, stating that that he just got in trouble 731 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 3: for getting that speeding ticket based off of trying to 732 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 3: be just like Miles Garrett. 733 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,759 Speaker 4: Do you find this to be accurate information? 734 00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 5: Wow, It's like it's kind of like the would that 735 00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 5: be like the kid that your parents didn't want to 736 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 5: get that way? Yeah? Yeah, because like for a little while, 737 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 5: like when I was a kid that was me. I 738 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 5: was a kid that they do. Yeah, no, I I uh, 739 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:15,120 Speaker 5: I like, I like. I think it's an interesting dynamic 740 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,280 Speaker 5: down there, for sure, in a lot of different ways. 741 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,719 Speaker 5: And I don't know exactly where where they're going with 742 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 5: it next, you know, I would say, like the Shaduur thing, 743 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 5: I think the amount of noises that the amount of 744 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 5: the amount of noises count it's creating on the outside 745 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 5: doesn't match the amount of buzz in the building. I mean, 746 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,359 Speaker 5: I think I think Shador has done a nice job 747 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,400 Speaker 5: of making progress, but I think he had more ground 748 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 5: to make up than the other rookie quarterback there, Dylan Gabriel. 749 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 5: And that's why Dylan Gabriel got more team wraps in 750 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 5: the spring, you know. And so I know why we're 751 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,120 Speaker 5: all focused on it, Like, I'm not blind to that, 752 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 5: and I'm not going to pretend that there's no reason 753 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 5: that we're all making a big deal out of the story, 754 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:56,879 Speaker 5: you know, But I don't like. I think I think, 755 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 5: you know, Chadur, the best thing for him to do 756 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 5: this whole time has been to carry himself like he's 757 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,959 Speaker 5: a fortieth or fiftieth or sixtieth guy in the roster 758 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:11,240 Speaker 5: because right now, that's what he is. And so generally 759 00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 5: with guys that are that far down the roster, you 760 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 5: have a little less tolerance for stuff like this. So 761 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:19,440 Speaker 5: it's not a killer, of course, you know, but you know, 762 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 5: I think it is something you file away. I like, 763 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 5: I don't I don't make that big a deal out 764 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 5: of it. Now, this was like street racing and the 765 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 5: stuff that like, I mean, like the Georgia guys are 766 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 5: getting in trouble. For me, we're talking about something else. 767 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 5: If it turns out to be that, then that might 768 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 5: be something else. You know, it's not what you're looking for, 769 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 5: But I don't think it's the end of the world. 770 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,839 Speaker 2: Albert Brier joining us here on Fox Sports Radio. So 771 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 2: the Jay R Alexander signing in Baltimore, we were talking 772 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 2: about this earlier in the show, and it just it 773 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:51,240 Speaker 2: feels like I'm always willing to give Baltimore the benefit 774 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 2: of the doubt when they make a signing because it 775 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 2: just like Jay R. Alexander. Look, I think the deals 776 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,360 Speaker 2: you can max out at six million dollars, it feels 777 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 2: like more of a kick your tie, kick the tie 778 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 2: deal on a guy who just hasn't been able to 779 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 2: stay healthy. But it just feels like that of all 780 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,839 Speaker 2: organizations in the NFL from people you've talked to, does 781 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 2: that feel like the best landing for a player in 782 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,280 Speaker 2: Jay R Alexander's position, Yeah. 783 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:19,400 Speaker 5: It does. I mean, I think I think the process 784 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 5: probably proved the Packers right. The Packers weren't going to 785 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,279 Speaker 5: pay him seventeen and a half million dollars this year. 786 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,360 Speaker 5: And the reason why it wasn't because of ability. It 787 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 5: was because of availability, you know, and like they know 788 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 5: what he's capable of, but he just couldn't keep himself 789 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 5: on the field, and he you know, he lost ten 790 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 5: games in twenty twenty three, he lost ten games in 791 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 5: twenty twenty four. That's twenty versus fourteen played over the 792 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 5: last two years. And it just got to the point 793 00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:51,880 Speaker 5: where they couldn't invest that amount of money, you know, 794 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 5: in that position. So what they wanted to do is 795 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 5: they wanted to bring him back on a deal where 796 00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 5: he'd be taking a pay cut and then you have 797 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,359 Speaker 5: a chance to make some of that incentives that were 798 00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 5: tied to playtime. Where does he go out and sign 799 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 5: It's exactly the sort of ideal of these signs. Now, 800 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:10,480 Speaker 5: like I will say this once. Sometimes it takes going 801 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 5: through that for a guy to come to grips with 802 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 5: the fact that he's not going to make what he 803 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 5: was hoping to make. And I it does feel to 804 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,400 Speaker 5: me a little bit like once, you know, Jai Alexander 805 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:21,360 Speaker 5: came to grips with the fact that no one was 806 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 5: going to take on the contract because he wasn't going 807 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:28,240 Speaker 5: to be traded like that. The the idea of trading 808 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 5: him and shopping him had kind of proven that out, 809 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 5: like that no one was going to pay him that much. 810 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 5: Otherwise the Packers would have traded him, and he got 811 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 5: himself out onto the market. Then he pivots and he 812 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 5: makes the decision to go to the place of the 813 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:44,800 Speaker 5: best football situation. And the Ravens have great, great, great 814 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:48,400 Speaker 5: history of guy of taking on guys on their third contracts, 815 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,960 Speaker 5: like near or near to the end of their careers. 816 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,160 Speaker 5: And so you know, you're talking about over the last 817 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 5: ten years, guys like mark Ingram, guys like Kevin Zeitler, 818 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:03,839 Speaker 5: guy is like Judevian Clowney, you know, Kyle van Noy 819 00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 5: is another great example of it. Like they have done 820 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 5: it time and time again, and so it's a great 821 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,480 Speaker 5: place from a football respect for obvious reasons because they 822 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 5: win and they played great defense and all that. But 823 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:17,759 Speaker 5: it's also been a great place for older players who 824 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 5: are who are on their third contracts, which is where 825 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:21,520 Speaker 5: j Alexander is now. 826 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 3: Abey We we found out today that Ed Policy, who 827 00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:32,239 Speaker 3: works for our producer Lead the Lap, spoke about the 828 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:34,360 Speaker 3: philosophy Leah. 829 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:36,320 Speaker 5: I didn't know that is Leah is Leah. 830 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 3: Leah is an owner. Uh, he's a shareholder. Uh, and 831 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 3: sent us proof of it of him doing it. 832 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 5: It's good, like over the fireplace like most people in Wisconsin. 833 00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 2: No, he doesn't even have it. 834 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:50,280 Speaker 7: He doesn't. 835 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 4: He just has a picture of him doing it owns meeting. 836 00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 5: So you get that fake actuity. You don't even have 837 00:44:57,680 --> 00:44:58,360 Speaker 5: the certificate. 838 00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 2: I got the certificate. It's some where like Albert. It's 839 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 2: like when you're when you're nineteen and you go out 840 00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 2: without your fake idea. It's like, trust me, I'm twenty one. 841 00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 2: It's like, come on, like, well what are we doing here? 842 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:11,359 Speaker 4: Uh? 843 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:14,880 Speaker 5: But I actually have talked my way into some places. Uh. 844 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:20,440 Speaker 3: Fairy well, I'm just I'm just excited for Lee to 845 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:23,920 Speaker 3: have ownership over his favorite in his favorite team. But 846 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,279 Speaker 3: at policy came out and he spoke about, you know, 847 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:32,360 Speaker 3: his philosophy on extensions for hey coaches, and it just 848 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 3: led to the conversation of, uh, in our show, what 849 00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 3: what does Lafleur have to do to get an extension? 850 00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:45,280 Speaker 3: I mean, don't we think he's done enough at this point? 851 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 5: Well, I mean he's already on his second contract, I believe, right, Like, 852 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,520 Speaker 5: because he's six years, it's gonna be a six years. 853 00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:56,759 Speaker 5: So he's on a second contract already. You know, I 854 00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:59,040 Speaker 5: think him and Brian Goudakas has done a nice job. 855 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 5: I also understand like where you know, you want to 856 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 5: you know, establish yourself a little bit first. Now I've 857 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:10,719 Speaker 5: said this forever, Like I think Matt laflor like his 858 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,719 Speaker 5: coaching record for I mean, for the way he's he's 859 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 5: perceived sometimes you know, it's really really good. You know, 860 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,239 Speaker 5: he won thirteen games his first three years in a row. 861 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:22,760 Speaker 5: He was able to transition them out of the Aaron 862 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:27,520 Speaker 5: Rodgers era and into the Jordan Love era and and 863 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:30,360 Speaker 5: did that effectively. And they've you know, they've the last 864 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:34,000 Speaker 5: three years, they've they've improved year over year. So like 865 00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:37,719 Speaker 5: I I I think the world of Mattelaflora, and you know, 866 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:39,920 Speaker 5: I think you know his management of so many different 867 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:43,799 Speaker 5: situations there in Green Bays and outstanding. You know. I 868 00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:46,799 Speaker 5: also I also know this like that you know, going 869 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:49,560 Speaker 5: into now this will be his seventh year in charge 870 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:54,319 Speaker 5: in Green Bay. He you know, like I having been 871 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 5: extended already. You know, I can understand where like a 872 00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 5: new president comes in and he wants to get the 873 00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 5: lay of the land first before he engages in contract negotiations. 874 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,440 Speaker 5: So like I get both sides of that one and 875 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:10,800 Speaker 5: doesn't stun me. I don't think it puts either Goody 876 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 5: or Lafleur on any sort of shaky ground there. 877 00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,759 Speaker 2: Albert Brera, last one for me. So I know that 878 00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 2: you had done a little bit of a preview and 879 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:21,359 Speaker 2: looking at the NFC East and we were talking about 880 00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:25,319 Speaker 2: the Giant situation earlier this week, and it feels like 881 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:30,319 Speaker 2: they're in an interesting spot because Brian Dayball and Joe 882 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:33,560 Speaker 2: Shane it's almost like last call, like this is it, 883 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:37,919 Speaker 2: and they were brought back. They drafted Jackson Dart, They've 884 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:43,160 Speaker 2: got Russell Wilson. You look at their schedule, it's not easy. 885 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 2: So I'm just wondering, could you see them maybe going 886 00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:51,759 Speaker 2: to Jackson Dart sooner rather than later, just from the 887 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 2: standpoint that if they can't sell to Mars on wins, 888 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:57,840 Speaker 2: at least being able to sell them on hope for 889 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:00,319 Speaker 2: next year and development of a young quarter back. 890 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,640 Speaker 5: Yeah. I think it depends on two things, you know. Obviously, 891 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 5: the obvious one is the development Jackson Dart, how ready 892 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:09,520 Speaker 5: he is to play, and you heard varying things on that. 893 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:12,840 Speaker 5: The one thing I do think helps is like that 894 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 5: Brian day Ball does have connections in that Old Miss program, 895 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 5: So he's going to have like a pretty good handle 896 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:21,759 Speaker 5: of what Jackson Dart Cannon can't do based on some 897 00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:23,960 Speaker 5: of the stronger relationships he has with the people there. 898 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:29,200 Speaker 5: You know, Joe Judge was Jackson Dart's quarterbacks coach. Joe 899 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,520 Speaker 5: and Brian were together in New England. Charlie Weiss is 900 00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:36,280 Speaker 5: actually Brian Table's mentor and his son is the offensive 901 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:38,920 Speaker 5: coordinator at Old Miss, so he'll be able to get 902 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:41,480 Speaker 5: good information on what he can and can't do. So, 903 00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:45,759 Speaker 5: like the development piece of it's important obviously if you're 904 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 5: going to feel comfortable putting him in there. Number two 905 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 5: is just the state of the team and you know, like, 906 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:53,880 Speaker 5: how does that match up with his development? Like if 907 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,960 Speaker 5: he's the best quarterback in camp, then we're not then 908 00:48:56,960 --> 00:49:00,400 Speaker 5: we're probably talking about something else. But if he isn't, okay, 909 00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 5: like if the team is you know, one in four, 910 00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,279 Speaker 5: well then it's a lot easier to put Jackson Dart 911 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:08,799 Speaker 5: in there to try to give him a spark. If 912 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 5: they're winning, then that's something else, you know. So I 913 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:14,719 Speaker 5: think there are just some moving parts that complicated a 914 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:16,279 Speaker 5: little bit. And I think a big part of it too, 915 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:20,000 Speaker 5: is like this isn't a team that is, you know, 916 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:23,640 Speaker 5: devoid of proud veteran players that you have a lot 917 00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:26,000 Speaker 5: of skins in the wall, and it's like Brian Burns 918 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:30,160 Speaker 5: and keve On Thibodeaux and obviously Dexter Lawrence and Andrew 919 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:33,080 Speaker 5: Thomas and so you know, like as far as just 920 00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:37,759 Speaker 5: kind of keeping those guys locked in and engage, you 921 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,280 Speaker 5: have to give them the best answer at the quarterback position. 922 00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:42,719 Speaker 5: And if they know you're not doing that, if they 923 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:45,920 Speaker 5: know you're doing something to save your job, then you 924 00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:49,360 Speaker 5: risk losing them. So I think it's complicated from that perspective. 925 00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:52,600 Speaker 5: The best case scenario, of course, is that Dark develops 926 00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 5: really fast, and he is the best answer for you. 927 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:58,120 Speaker 5: And then you know, you play relatively well over the 928 00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:00,719 Speaker 5: course of the year, and the mari don't want to 929 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:03,440 Speaker 5: turn everything upside down on the young quarterback, and you 930 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:05,319 Speaker 5: get another year and now you can really prove it 931 00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:09,400 Speaker 5: in twenty six. You know, we'll see what happens. But 932 00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 5: you know, I don't think it's just a straight line 933 00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:14,400 Speaker 5: thing where it's like you can talk this scheme to 934 00:50:15,160 --> 00:50:18,440 Speaker 5: just throw Jackson Dart in there to give the ownership 935 00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:20,040 Speaker 5: some hope, because I don't know how you keep the 936 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:22,440 Speaker 5: rest of the team engaged if he's not the best. 937 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 2: Answer, get him on X at Albert Brier AB. We 938 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,279 Speaker 2: always appreciate it. Let's do it again next week, all right. 939 00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 5: Thanks there. 940 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 2: He is Albert Brier, Amazon, NFL on Prime Insider, senior 941 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:36,279 Speaker 2: NFL reporter, lead content strategist at the MMQB with us 942 00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:37,840 Speaker 2: here on Fox Sports Radio.
