Ufilming. Well, 9 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: look at it this way. If if the NFL wasn't 10 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:40,199 Speaker 1: constantly generating something, then maybe we wouldn't be doing this 11 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: podcast be a seasonal job. Maybe we would be working 12 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,159 Speaker 1: in a factory somewhere until NFL season again again you 13 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: never know, in an alternate really be like old NFL players, 14 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: like the Packers when they actually were packers in the 15 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: off season packing boxes, wind up in some factory. Don't 16 00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 1: go back to rock a right, little, are you? Oh yeah, 17 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: I've been schooled and now appreciate the twelve month furious news. 18 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: So you know what you're gonna appreciate is these couple 19 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,759 Speaker 1: of weeks, about three or four weeks from now, when 20 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:12,960 Speaker 1: you're at work, not during vacation because we we got 21 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 1: six mini camps this week, about twenty three other teams 22 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: at O T A s. Then next week everyone's at 23 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: mini camps and then it's just quiet for five or 24 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: six weeks. You can't imagine how bad our posts and 25 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: podcasts are going to be. Then it will be completely 26 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: made up of talking about various arrests and what they 27 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: mean for their teams. Maybe we can watch the NBA Finals. 28 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: It'll be over to be over, buddy. It's truly the if. 29 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: Unless you're a baseball fan, there's literally nothing waste land. 30 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: If that's the case, Mark excited about FIFA World Cup women, 31 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: what's true? You can watch a little women's World Cup. 32 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: Wouldn't say I'm excited. I'm happy if that's that's nice 33 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: that it's on. I like Mark's detour into fake basketball 34 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: fandom during the final. It's been it's been kind of refreshing. 35 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: I Cleveland is approaching what they've not done in decades 36 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: and decades. I'm gonna watch. Can I share the story 37 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: from thirty from Sunday afternoon? I don't know which. There 38 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: were many stories. So we're watching we're watching the game 39 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: at the at the bar on Sunday evening. The game 40 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,079 Speaker 1: is at near the end of regulation, it might even 41 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 1: be early in overtime. People are on edge. It's an 42 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: incredible one of the best finals games. And you were 43 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,239 Speaker 1: fired up. Love it, love watching Lebron at the peak 44 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: of his powers. It's been fun so far. And Mark 45 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: is into it next to me the whole the whole time, 46 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: and he'd been, you know, we'd all be hanging out 47 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: at the bar for a while to you know, read 48 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: into that however you may. But at one point Markets 49 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: into a conversation with a young group of men behind us, 50 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: in which it comes out that one of them, in 51 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: fact is a Ravens fan. And then under cross examination, 52 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: Mark finds out that that Ravens fan did not know 53 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: that the Ravens became the Ravens because the Browns moved 54 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: out of Cleveland, and Mark, of course, as as a 55 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: diehard Browns van, Mark flabbergasted. Fifteen minutes later, now literally 56 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: Lebron's got the ball, probably last possession, trying to win 57 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: the game. I look over to Mark and his arms 58 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 1: are crossed and his face is sour like some like 59 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: he just found out his dog down. And I was like, 60 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: Mark what's wrong. It's like, no, man, It's just like, 61 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: how could he not know what? Well? I think the 62 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: boss would appreciate that. I'm always thinking about football, but uh, 63 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: I find a defensive that someone in there late twenties. 64 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: They're not I'm doing this lit a twelve year old. 65 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: It was probably I think the part of the story 66 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: was that the game was tied. It's overtime. You know, 67 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: Cleveland's got the ball. It's a big spot in the 68 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,959 Speaker 1: game here, and you're focused on something else and some kids, 69 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,519 Speaker 1: some torp not knowing the history of the threw me 70 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: off my orbit big time. I expect nothing less out 71 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: of Mark. That's this is predictable behavior. And you look 72 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: the kid hit it coming millennial. That's exactly right, Christ 73 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: score of your old men attack millennials, West West attacks 74 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: sec of our listenership.

So one big bit of 163 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: news that went down on Friday we should talk about. 164 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: Have lost another important player in a sudden fashion. Right 165 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: tackle Anthony Davis announced Friday that he won't play in 166 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 1: He released a statement, after a few years of thought, 167 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: I've decided it will be best for me to take 168 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: a year or so away from the NFL. This will 169 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 1: be a time for me to allow my brain embody 170 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: a chance. That l Davis just started seventy one games 171 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: and five NFL seasons. Greg will start with you. It 172 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: just never ends with the Niners. What does this loss 173 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: mean to that offensive line? Big Anthony Davis was a 174 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 1: solid NFL starter. Maybe he wasn't coming off his best season, 175 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: good run blocker, but what West pointed out in the 176 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: piece when he retired, which which hit home, they only 177 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: have two starters left off the offensive line that was 178 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl, and that offensive line, along with 179 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 1: their defensive line, I think established the identity of what 180 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: that team was, which was a tough team that pushed 181 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 1: you around up front, and that team really doesn't exist anymore. 182 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: This is a different forty Niners team. They drafted Anthony 183 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: Davis and Mikey Potty in the first round of the 184 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 1: same draft. Both of those guys are now gone, and 185 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: you could say they were the backbone of the best 186 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 1: offensive in the offensive line in the league. Two years ago. 187 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 1: The forty Niners said what they thought of Anthony Natives. 188 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: Two years ago, they gave him a thirty nine million 189 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: dollar contract with I think seventeen million dollar guaranteed. So 190 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: that's not top tackle money, but it's in that next 191 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: tier of a first round pick that's basically lived up 192 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: to his billing. And now he's just gone out of nowhere. Yeah. 193 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 1: I mean, and even two years ago, you could still 194 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: look at the forty Niners and that offensive line was 195 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: exactly that was their beating heart, and they also had 196 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: Frank Gore running the football. I mean, this team at 197 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: this point, they've lost so many players that the logic 198 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: is they're gonna be less fun to watch, and they 199 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: will be, but they're ultimately fascinating to me right now 200 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 1: because of all the moving and changing parts, and it 201 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: starts with the head coach that I think none of 202 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: us know what's gonna happen. If Tom Seuilla gets off 203 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 1: to a rough start where the leaders on that team 204 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: who's gonna buy in? It could get ugly. I think 205 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: Tom Seill expected the roster to be different, but I'm 206 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: not sure he expected Willis, Borland and Davis to retire. 207 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: I mean, since no, he didn't expect any of them 208 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: to retire. Since March, they've lost by my count, twenty 209 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 1: Pro Bowls and over a thousand NFL starts. Yikes, nothing's 210 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: there's no if someone can come up with team similar 211 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: to the forty nine in terms of what they've lost 212 00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 1: in an off season to retirement, to surprise retirement, I 213 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,679 Speaker 1: can't imagine this has ever happened before. Justin Smith, that's 214 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 1: not a shock, although that is a big loss to 215 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 1: them in terms of leadership. But the other three guys, 216 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: it's insane for that to all drop on one team 217 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,079 Speaker 1: in one off season. Do we haven't had surprise retirements 218 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,319 Speaker 1: like this in an NFL off season before? Well, it's 219 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: weird too because he might be coming back. He means 220 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,839 Speaker 1: said in his statement he wants to give a year 221 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: or two to clear his head and his body, and 222 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: maybe he'll be back, and I'll be back with the 223 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,199 Speaker 1: forty niners. They'll on his rights. It once again reaffirms 224 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: my belief that poor Jim tom Sula got airlifted onto 225 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: the Titanic after it hit the iceberg. He's in troub 226 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: you know what. Their expectations are so low right now, 227 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: and then you know he's got a chance. Everyone thinks 228 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: they're gonna go three and thirteen four. What if they 229 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: rip off nine wins. I'm not saying it's gonna happen, 230 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: but Tom Sula has another opportunity to take a whole 231 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: off season and change what we think about. Let's not 232 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: forget Jim Harbow was a huge disappointment last year. At 233 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: least that team was a huge disappointment, winning only eight games. 234 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: If Tom Sula somehow wins seven games, people would be 235 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 1: happy with them. And that's what saved Rex Ryan's job 236 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: with the Jets two years ago. If you if he 237 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,439 Speaker 1: goes five hundred, he gets a second year, right literally, 238 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: unless he has a terrible relationship with management or the 239 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 1: players or something like that. Lust they also, you know, lost, 240 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: I really think the key piece of the whole thing 241 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: this weekend. Andy Lee Pro Bowl Hunter to your brown 242 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: cessler ups while other teachers are asleep at the wheel, 243 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: Cleveland is just improving. Can we call these retirements a 244 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: trend or do we have to wait a few years 245 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 1: to kind of figure out what's going on. I think 246 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: we need to wait. I mean the whole off season 247 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 1: or just the forty nine. I think the whole off season. 248 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: I throw in Jason Worlds and Jake Locker. I think 249 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,839 Speaker 1: you can call it some a bit of a trend. 250 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 1: I don't think with the forty nine. When Tom Sula 251 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 1: said you have to look at each one of these 252 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: situations one by one, I think that was fair. Willis 253 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 1: was going to retire regardless, Smith was going to retire regardless. 254 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: Borland he seemed like he had a really strong, almost 255 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: political stance to make about head injuries. Davis seems somewhere 256 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: in between. I have a theory on this all right. 257 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 1: I think around the nineteen eighties you started to see 258 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: the audience change for the NFL. It used to be 259 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: in the fifties and sixties that coal miners and steel 260 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: workers were watching coal miners and steel workers play football, 261 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: And by the nineteen eighties you've got a different audience. 262 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 1: More suburban watching millionaires play football, and now we have 263 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: players who have other options and don't need the game 264 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 1: as much. I think, whereas the audience changed in the 265 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,079 Speaker 1: nineteen eighties, now the players have changed. You don't have 266 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: coal miners and steel workers playing football anymore. That makes 267 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,719 Speaker 1: total sense. And on top of it, if there's not been, 268 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: there's been a total rush of new information about head 269 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: injuries and when it's met in the past, absolutely yeah. 270 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: Moving on, the Giants are taking it very conservative with 271 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham Jr. There great second year wide receiver who 272 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: dealt with the right hamstring UH injury last season that 273 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: kept him out until the fifth week, fifth game of 274 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 1: the season for the Giants. Now he is a left 275 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: hamstring injury. UH is not participating in O t as 276 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: this week, did not participate it last week. Kim Jones 277 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: NFL Media's Kim Jones reports he probably won't participate in 278 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: mini camp next week and they're gonna hold him off 279 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: until training camp. Uh, Mark, do you have any reason 280 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: in a week? We don't know how serious these injuries are, 281 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: but does it scare you a little bit that Odell 282 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: Beckham is dealing all of a sudden with a hamstring 283 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 1: injury again this summer, and what it might mean for 284 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: his season, not even in the slightest because it's far 285 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: too early to care. Number one, this is the time 286 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: to be absolutely cautious with your best player and maybe 287 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: the best player to come around in a long time. 288 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 1: And last year it's you know that that became a 289 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: very serious hamstring injury. There's no indication that this is 290 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: of that same nature. There was no indication at this 291 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 1: point last year. It was so serious. It was just 292 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: this thing that kept dragging on. Oh, he'll be back 293 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: in June. He'll be back in July. He the other 294 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: leg this time, But there's the other leg this time, 295 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: and everyone associated with the Giants has said it's not 296 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: serious at all. But three months removed from the season, 297 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: or three months until this season, why even o they're 298 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 1: risking it? Obviously, let me ask you a question. Let's 299 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: say you you have a football team and you knew 300 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: that you could have Odell Beckham for the next five years, 301 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: but he could never start the season until week five. 302 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: I'd take him in a second. Yeah, unless those injuries 303 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: eventually take a toll on him physically, he loses some burst. 304 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's a concern if this is five, you know, 305 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: it's a concern if it starts stretching into the regular 306 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 1: season again. Odell Beckham was one of the best players 307 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: in the league last year, but he wasn't available for 308 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: a huge chunk of it. I'd be concerned if he's 309 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: not ready to start training camp. Mhm, I mean, I think, 310 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: but that's when it will get my attention. And this one, 311 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: like right now, I'm not even worried. Kim Jones also 312 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: reported that Victor Cruz also not taking part in O 313 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: t A s uh. He's working his way back from 314 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: knee surgery. They hope to have him, best case scenario 315 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: back for the start of training camp. So if you 316 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: get those two guys healthy, that's a pretty damn good 317 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: one to punch. I'm a little not that I consider 318 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: myself an injury expert, but I'd be a little surprised 319 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: if this is the same guy. Um, I would be 320 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 1: surprised if yeah, the nature of that injury, I I 321 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 1: don't know. We's got news for you. Cole Beasley and 322 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham would be a great one to punch. It 323 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: doesn't matter you put next to Odell Becka alright, moving on. 324 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: So the Chargers did some business officially on Tuesday. They 325 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: agreed to a multi year deal with Corey Legit UH, 326 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 1: their defensive end, a first round pick in the two 327 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: thousand eleven draft. It's a fifty million dollar deal worth 328 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: over five years, thirty million guaranteed, according to rap Sheet. 329 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: So San Diego took care of its UH first round 330 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: pick inleven the New York yet's not the same situation. 331 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: The overall pick in two thousand eleven is Mark Mohammed Wilkerson. Yes, sorry, 332 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: I was completely in another place, don't worry about it. 333 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: Who showed up for the start of Jets minicamp on 334 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: Tuesday but still unhappy, does not have a deal and everything. 335 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: Everything got complicated in terms of his situation by the 336 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: arrival of Lenny Williams, the sixth overall picks. He's a 337 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: friend of mine. Sounds like a comedian, Yeah, Lanny william 338 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 1: So anyway, Moll Wilkerson, he's in camp, but he did 339 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: not promise that he'd be there for training camp. Mark, 340 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 1: Greg you worried, No, you're not all who cares about 341 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 1: Mohammed Wilkerson. No, he's gonna show up. He showed up 342 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,199 Speaker 1: for mandatory minicamp because he didn't want to lose the 343 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 1: sixty dollars. So I don't think he's gonna skip training camp. 344 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: He said the money didn't matter. Are you calling Wilkerson 345 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 1: ian rap? Ward thought it was a big part of 346 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 1: the equation in terms of why he came. And he's 347 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 1: basically handling the hold out exactly. How if you're gonna 348 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: hold out, you want your players to do it. He's 349 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,919 Speaker 1: gonna skip the voluntary stuff, why bother and come to 350 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 1: the mandatory. I do think that this contract makes it 351 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 1: more difficult for him because if Corey legits were thirty 352 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: million guaranteed and five years fifty million, Mohammed Wilkerson's worth 353 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: more than that. He's a way better player than Legit. 354 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: That's what I mean. Were you a little surprised the legit? 355 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 1: I and also watching that was our team of a 356 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: t L last year, and I struggle on San Diego's 357 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:11,479 Speaker 1: defense and West We talked about this downstairs. What's to like? What? 358 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 1: I like legit? But what players do you latch onto 359 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 1: and say? I never shows up on film. I've got 360 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: a big Jason Varette poster up in my that's like 361 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: on their defense I like Legit, he's a good player. 362 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: I think John Gruden, you remember how he used to 363 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 1: talk about Brett Farve, has made a lot of people 364 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: money over the years. He's made you know, assistant coaches house. 365 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,439 Speaker 1: I think John Gruden made Corey Legit some money because 366 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 1: he had a monster Monday night football game and John 367 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,439 Speaker 1: Good would not be quiet about how incredible Corey Legit was. 368 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,159 Speaker 1: And then suddenly here he is getting stars. So we 369 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: were downstairs trying to figure out how to pronounce his 370 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 1: last name. So he's not made the impact something that's 371 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: not French. By the way, I think Lenny Williams, the 372 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: Jets rookie, if he blows up in year one, this 373 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: is not going to catch on. It's happening. If he 374 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: blows up in year one, the Jets might be like, 375 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,360 Speaker 1: well do they love Mo Wilkerson? But if they they 376 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 1: they're happy with their defensive line and Leonard Williams looks great, 377 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,120 Speaker 1: they might spend their money elsewhere. Yeah, they they put 378 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: themselves in a great bargaining place. Not only was it 379 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: a great pick, they never thought they'd get him where 380 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 1: they got him in the draft. You don't have to 381 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: pay Wilkerson if you don't want to. When do you 382 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,879 Speaker 1: think Wilkerson will realize Wilma dawn on him that he 383 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,399 Speaker 1: has not a modicum of leverage here, I think, and 384 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,200 Speaker 1: this entire thing is fruitless. I thought about this morning 385 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: at he's a great NFL player. Those guys always have leverage. 386 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 1: He's gonna get paid monster dollars from You don't have 387 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: to do anything but Lanny Williams. The worst case scenario, 388 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 1: then you get thirty one other teams. So if you right, 389 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 1: in which case, wouldn't you want to put in a 390 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 1: good offseason and be a better player this year? I 391 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: don't know. I guess I'm still not convinced. Not showing 392 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,919 Speaker 1: up for a yet. O t As hurts you in anything, right, 393 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: if he starts from here and goes on out, he'll 394 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,400 Speaker 1: be fun Alright. This next portion of news I call 395 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: graying quarterbacks with knee problems catchy kind of set. It 396 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: sets the table before we're gonna talk about that. Listen 397 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: not and wait until the whole segment, Stune before you 398 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 1: make any decisions on that. Carson Palmer, he blew out 399 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: his knee, of course, uh last November for the second time. 400 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 1: He is now said to be one entering cards of minicamp. 401 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: The team is very happy about it. And uh they 402 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 1: said that Bruce Arian said that Palmer was cutting it loose. Uh, 403 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: no restrictions. Uh. So that is very good news for 404 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 1: a quarterback that's not a young guy. So they're they're 405 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: very happy about his progress. Meanwhile, Sam Bradford, who west Uh, 406 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: last week, I think some Beat reporters said that Bradford's 407 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 1: mobility was at what level? What are they compared to 408 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:49,640 Speaker 1: jugs machine? A jugs machine which is a stable device 409 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 1: that shoots footballs. It doesn't move. So what they were 410 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 1: saying there Mark was that that he wasn't moving well. 411 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: But anyway, Sam Bradford, who blew out his knee for 412 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: the second time last summer, uh, now moving a little 413 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,679 Speaker 1: better this week in O T A s and spinning 414 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: it a little bit, and they're they're a little more excited. 415 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 1: So old gray dudes, bad knees. Fan Bradford's like ten 416 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 1: years younger than anything. Come on, subway, give us the money. 417 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 1: I don't know Carson Palmer. I was shocked that he 418 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 1: declared himself it's only been what six and a half 419 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: seven months? Well, the doctors at least said he can 420 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: do everything. I don't know if that means he's our 421 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: researchers today in our morning meeting. You guys love going 422 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: to meetings. Oh yeah, an we can. They broke out 423 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: a stat of the last six guys to come back, 424 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: you know, big time starting quarterbacks from their a c 425 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 1: l s. Not one of them had a better record 426 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: the season after coming back from a c l S. 427 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 1: And really the best case of all of those guys 428 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: was probably Tom Brady, who was still clearly deminished. Even 429 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: in the best case scenario you're probably getting of two 430 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: thousand fourteen Carson Palmer well, and the fact that though 431 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:06,679 Speaker 1: that Palmer's into bad so much after Bradford's and Bradford's 432 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 1: still in the city. As we asked a couple of 433 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 1: podcasts to go what happens to a quarterback coming off 434 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: to major knee injuries? We don't have a track record 435 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: for this. Yeah. I think the fact that Bradford's happened 436 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,360 Speaker 1: back to back with you know, so quickly, and Palmer's. 437 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 1: The last time Palmer tours a c L it was 438 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 1: the worst hair you could possibly have. I think it 439 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: was a grade four and this first time. Yeah, and 440 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 1: this one was like the easiest hair, so it's no 441 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: surprise to me that he came back a lot quicker. 442 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: But um, I think he Bradford's dealing with a much 443 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: different injury. Nothing says the NFL is owning the sports 444 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: landscape as that we get weekly updates on you know 445 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 1: what you know, mechanical device. Sam Bradford looks like that. 446 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: Like last seak, was Juggons be seen this week? I 447 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 1: don't know. Well, at least we're not hearing about the 448 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 1: music Eagles practice anymore. We've gotten beyond that. Personal smoothies, 449 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 1: personal smoothies, remote controlled cars, the genius always on top 450 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: of his game. Uh speak of geniuses, Greg Uh. Bill 451 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: Belichick has decided I don't want Brandon Spikes on my 452 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: team again. He said it again after after the team 453 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: released Spikes less than a month into a reunion with 454 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 1: his team. This happened after Spikes's car was found on 455 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 1: a Foxborough highway. Uh left abandon. He had called on 456 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: Star or the driver of the car I should say 457 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,159 Speaker 1: called on Started said they had hit a deer. The 458 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: police came, saw no deer, so some damage to the 459 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,679 Speaker 1: front end and then nearby this car belonging to Spikes 460 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 1: was a family whose car had been hit and a 461 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: hit and run. No charges filed or anything, but that 462 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: was enough that Spikes's car was involved or what they 463 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: know that maybe we don't know. They don't want anything 464 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: to do with him. Of course, Spikes's previous engagement with 465 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 1: the team ended in acrimony. So now Greg a nice 466 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: inside linebacker, guys, nice run stuffer, the throne of ease 467 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: loses him because he you know, he didn't call uber 468 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: potentially well, they only got a twenty five thousand gave 469 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: him a twenty five thousand dollar signing bonus, which to 470 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 1: me is a a antal way of saying you're on 471 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 1: a short lease. Spikes. Oh no, I hear clouds roll in. 472 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:11,199 Speaker 1: There's some disorder in the Skies. I think they just 473 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 1: fine with their season without Brandon Spikes last year, but 474 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 1: it is a alred he plagued division. I mean a 475 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: position right now for them. Dante Hataer is coming off 476 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 1: an injury. He might not be ready for training camp. 477 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 1: Grod Mayo's coming off a very serious The injuries to 478 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 1: help them. The only reason Spikes was signed was because 479 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 1: those guys were coming off. He would help right now, 480 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 1: you got Dane Fletcher in the mix. If if this, 481 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 1: Spikes would still be on the roster because off the 482 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 1: field's concerns weren't as big as a problem and because 483 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 1: two down run thumpers were great in six. But the 484 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: game's changed. Brandon Spikes isn't that valuable anymore. Well, and 485 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 1: if the police investigation proves him to be free of 486 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: any issues, then New England he's probably still be available. 487 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 1: They can call him right back up. But no one, 488 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 1: no one was going after Brandon Spikes as a free 489 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: agent anyways, because of what you said. He doesn't fit 490 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,959 Speaker 1: in today's NFL. I mean, if he was in ninety five, 491 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 1: if he might be a pro bowler, because because he's 492 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: really good at stopping the run and just like running 493 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 1: in straight into people. But that that doesn't really matter anymore. 494 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:12,880 Speaker 1: Greig doesn't strike me is terribly worried here. What would happen? Though? 495 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,199 Speaker 1: Like I do, I'd like Spikes because he's one of 496 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 1: the only Patriots they ever drafted that was any good, 497 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 1: that didn't care what Bill Belichick said and just would 498 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 1: pop off. You know, it's it worked out well. It's 499 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: not great for job security. It is a little weird though, 500 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 1: that they acted on this without anything official coming from 501 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: the police. It's like there's zero tolerance and then there's 502 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: like sub zero tolerance. It could have been like it 503 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: could have been Spikes's friend Rufus that went joy riding 504 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: around Gilette Stadium. You don't know, you don't know. This 505 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:40,719 Speaker 1: is a team that's been in the news just as 506 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 1: much as they'd like to this offseason. So I think 507 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 1: they probably told Spikes when they signed him, you say, 508 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: you say anything, you do anything, whatever, this is going 509 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: to be a short stay here. He was just kind 510 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 1: of no issues with on Star? Please who's on Star? 511 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:57,120 Speaker 1: And I don't know, it feels like it's from seven 512 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 1: years ago. Alright, gentlemen. So Brandon Spikes out of a 513 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 1: job back on the street, which got us all thinking, 514 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 1: you know, there's some veterans out there right now that 515 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: maybe you can make a very strong argument that they 516 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 1: should be in someone's camp right now getting ready for 517 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: the season. Not always the case, since sometimes it's hard 518 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 1: to get a job. We've all been we've all been there. 519 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: Job market sometimes drives up. Listen to a Bruce Springsteen, 520 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 1: what happens? So this is our chance now to each 521 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,919 Speaker 1: pick a player delivered strawberries for a living could be 522 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 1: your next job. I delivered pizzas right before Greg hired me. Well, 523 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 1: I got hired to deliver pizzas and didn't delivering totally. 524 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 1: I knew these stories, but maybe the audience didn't know them. 525 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 1: So let's all pick one veteran player that is currently 526 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: out of work unemployed in a segment we like to 527 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: call and give us a man a job. Ron, I've 528 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 1: got to fire you. Well, I've got to fire you. 529 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: I like the other one better. I wasn't fired from 530 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: my job. I was laid off. You wouldn't know the difference, 531 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 1: all right, So we'll start with I mean, you gotta 532 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 1: start with the boss, Greg Rosenthal. Why don't you give 533 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: us a veteran out there that deserves a job? Put 534 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,199 Speaker 1: him in camp somewhere. The easiest game we've ever played, 535 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 1: because there's three different reasons why I want Pierre Thomas 536 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: to get a job. Number one, we had a little 537 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 1: sandwich proposition in terms of the guaranteed money of our 538 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:27,160 Speaker 1: top running backs available this offseason, and I need one 539 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 1: more of those players to sign to win the sandwich. 540 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: But take it away that Who's the best screen past 541 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 1: catcher of the last ten years. I'll ask another scientist, 542 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 1: who do you think Pierre Thomas? Pierre Thomas, the great 543 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:43,880 Speaker 1: Walter Payton four point nine yards per carry last year. 544 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 1: That sounds like a pretty good number. Fifty five targets, 545 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 1: forty five catches last year, eight yards per catch? What's 546 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: not to like Pierre Thomas? He's not going to start 547 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: at running back for you, but everyone needs Well, there's 548 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 1: something going on. There's thirty two teams not liking them 549 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: enough right now. It's called ages. M is in the 550 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: old us of A that's illegal, you know totally. You 551 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,160 Speaker 1: know he does have a spot on one roster. What's 552 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 1: about is that Dan Hans is his own l a 553 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 1: graybeards exactly. So if you you're basically admitting that Pierre Thomas, 554 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 1: how do you know I'm not muckraking behind the scenes 555 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: to keep him off a roster. So I want a 556 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: sandwich off you. I think at this point the statue 557 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: the Sandwich of Limitations is running out right now, and 558 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: I think you might just have to get that sandwich 559 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: so we could call to watch with the entourage. Now, 560 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 1: I only seventeen sandwiches seriously, though, this is a great 561 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 1: role player. It's the exact type of guy, someone who 562 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: couldn't be more popular in New Orleans in the locker room. 563 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I am kind of confounded why he doesn't 564 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: have a job. All right, that's a good one. Must 565 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: be something going on. Something's cooking, Mark. I will throw 566 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: a quarterback out there, Michael Vick. Now, let me tell 567 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 1: you something about Michael Vick. Watched him every snap last 568 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: year at the Jets, and this is what happens. And West, 569 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: one of your famous West is hum. You know, it's 570 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 1: about the game, not the name. Michael Vick put bad 571 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: tape out there last year. And to to compound matters, 572 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: he also admitted after a blowout loss to the Chargers 573 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: that he wasn't prepared to go into a game. And 574 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: I think that's hurting him now. He's still He's about 575 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: to turn thirty five, so he's older, but he's not ancient. 576 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 1: He did show at times last year that he still 577 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 1: had some athleticism. He obviously knows how to to absorb 578 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: a playbook. He knows he's won big games in his career, 579 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: so there's plenty of reasons to suggest that he deserves 580 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: to be in a camp somewhere fighting for a job. 581 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: When there are guys like Brian Hoyer and Ryan Mallott 582 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,479 Speaker 1: fighting for starting jobs. Michael Vick probably deserves to be 583 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: fighting for a two job, and yet he's not. So uh, 584 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: you know, he's still he's you know, you see him 585 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,239 Speaker 1: pop up at charity golf events now and then right now, 586 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: and he always says I could still be a starter. 587 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: That's not gonna happen, but he deserves to be in 588 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: a camp and might take an injury for it to happen, 589 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: but it has it. I think that's one reason that 590 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: maybe teams aren't running after to sign Michael Vick. I 591 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: think plenty of defensive coaches still admire what he can 592 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: do to an opponent in theory he didn't do that 593 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 1: last year. But also it's every month it's I'm going 594 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: to be a starter. I can still be a starter. 595 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: This isn't the guy you want to bring into mentor 596 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: someone just for the reason you said. Last year when 597 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 1: they put him on the field, he's like, I didn't prepare. Well, 598 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 1: what do you tell in the rest of your quarterback 599 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 1: room when you're the savvy veteran the explosive. Michael Vick 600 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 1: is gone. It's kind of like a player like Brandon 601 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: Spikes who has off field issues. There's a sliding scale, 602 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: and for someone to bring in Michael Vick and deal 603 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: with him maybe saying something in the media kind of 604 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 1: wacky or whatever, he has to be a certain amount 605 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 1: of talent. That talent is not He has reached the 606 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: I'm Keith Hernandez stage of his career because when the 607 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 1: Jets try to hold that phony QB competition last summer, 608 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 1: he was very open with all the beat writers of 609 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: the Jets saying this is not a real competition. So 610 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 1: he's not necessarily a great soldier in that sense. I 611 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: could see why teams are scared off, but that is 612 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: what it is. West. Who are you vouching for right now? 613 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: I think ray Rice should get a job. I think 614 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: he messed up. I think any of us who have 615 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 1: messed up in our live was. There's a difference between 616 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: sorrow and remorse, and I think he shown remorse. He 617 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: has actually been forced to change the way he lives 618 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 1: his life. Um, and I think he's he's done that. 619 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 1: So when you have someone we give second chances to 620 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 1: people in the NFL and in America. He's someone who 621 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 1: was a model citizen before last year. He's someone who 622 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: deserves a second chance. And as Jane McManus of ESPN 623 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 1: W Today said that ray Rice should come back in 624 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: the NFL because who better than him to deliver the 625 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 1: message against domestic violence to young people, specifically young athletes, 626 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: that you should that this is the wrong thing to do. 627 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 1: All right, well, okay, maybe he's been contrite and done 628 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 1: the right things, but can he still play? Yes, he was, 629 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 1: he was. It's kind of like Vick. Vick put up 630 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: two of the worst games any quarterback did in the 631 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,719 Speaker 1: league last year. Ray Rice put up probably the worst 632 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 1: running back season the last time he was fully healthy. 633 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 1: So it's just why the game and I judged his 634 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 1: game that some or that he came back, as did 635 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 1: John Harboll, who said he's showing the same burst he 636 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: did the year before. He had lost weight two thousand 637 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 1: thirteen season. We compared him to the kid with a 638 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 1: snowsuit because that's the way he was running. He was 639 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 1: a little overweight, he was going through a hip injury 640 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 1: and a quad injury. He just wasn't the same guy. 641 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:17,959 Speaker 1: And then he was healthy again by the next summer, 642 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: and I I saw him. He only have five preseason carries, 643 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: but he looked like the same Ray Rice to me then, 644 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: And I think he can help a team. He talked 645 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 1: about in an offseason article. What that injury, that fleet 646 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: of injuries, what he was dealing with. And it's not 647 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: a surprise that he looked the way he did two 648 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: seasons ago. And what about a team like Dallas where 649 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: you got an owner that says we've taken a number 650 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: of players and rehabilitated them or given that second chance. 651 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: That's a need in the Dallas that may end up 652 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 1: being someone who has a chance down the road. That 653 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: that's the type of team it's gonna take where an 654 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: owner is making the decision, Because this is the decisions 655 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 1: that's gonna go up to ownership general managers who want 656 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: to sign Ray Rice, they're gonna have to clear it 657 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 1: with the big boss. That yeah, that's like when Jeff 658 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 1: Lurry got Michael Vick coming off of prison. Mark sel Up, Well, 659 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 1: you know, I came into work here, found out then 660 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 1: this seven was happening, and I said, I like to 661 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 1: do Pierre Thomas, that sounds good. Well, the boss already 662 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 1: has Pierre Thomas. It's the first guy he ever wrote 663 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: a blog about. How about this? How about a mod Bradshaw? 664 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 1: Now there's positive side. Last three seasons four point six, 665 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 1: four point five and four point seven yards per carry. 666 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 1: I think he looked like Indianapolis is best running back 667 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: for periods of time. The problem is Week eleven broken leg. 668 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 1: So I'm not I'm not trying to sell you a 669 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 1: bill of goods here, but he's gonna need time to 670 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 1: get healthy. If he's ever, he's twenty nine, he's not 671 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,720 Speaker 1: getting younger. But if he can come back and he 672 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 1: is healthy at some point, I like Bradshaw as much 673 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 1: as any running back on this list. If you need 674 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 1: a running back for five weeks, my Brad shows your guy. Well, 675 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: signed him like on Christmas Day, and then if you're 676 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 1: in the playoffs you roll with him and then his 677 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: foot again. It's not it's not a perfect narrative, but 678 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 1: you know he's joking. But there's value and that there 679 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 1: is a value in running back you can get for 680 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: five weeks. Maybe he's a guy you sign after week 681 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 1: one when the contracts aren't guaranteed anymore. But if you 682 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 1: can have someone that can step in like Bradshaw and 683 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 1: look like a starter for a month and then he 684 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: gets hurt. Well, maybe when the Raiders find out that 685 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 1: Trent Richardson is over, they bring in Bradshaw just like 686 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 1: the Colts did. If he like that, his career path 687 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,879 Speaker 1: is basically to just replace t rich Wherever he goes 688 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: makes sense if he's healthy and has kept himself in shape, 689 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,320 Speaker 1: which are two big ifs for any player who doesn't 690 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: have a job in the NFL. I mean a lot 691 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 1: of them don't keep themselves in shape. I think will 692 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 1: have a job at some point during the season. I agree, 693 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 1: if this entire list, he's the one I'd be most 694 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: confident and actually get to job. I think Thomas sounds 695 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 1: like I picked well. Dick. I don't know. I think 696 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 1: Vick might be done well. Let's let's final takeaway. Three 697 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 1: running backs. I chose a different position iconoclast. I think 698 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 1: that at this exercise you fail to some degree. But 699 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: there's more to the show. We'll keep going. Let's move on. 700 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 1: That was my takeaway from that entire segment. Dan likes 701 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 1: to give himself nicknames. He likes to call himself kind 702 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: of class. How's how's the what is your name, the 703 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 1: old big Zuser guy, the old mouse. Well, there's you know, 704 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:14,759 Speaker 1: Daddy Rich. How did that catch it on? People? Just 705 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:18,280 Speaker 1: around the office. There's listeners calling in. The old user 706 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:21,359 Speaker 1: is on fire on Twitter. That's not the one you chose, 707 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: Daddy Rich. I let the people choo choose. And of 708 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: course the wonderful Lindsay Rhodes. Uh, she went with Daddy Rich. 709 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 1: But we're rolling with old Zuser and that's where it 710 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,359 Speaker 1: is right now. Now get off my back, all right, 711 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 1: all right, before we get into our our final final discussion, 712 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 1: uh of the day, I just want to check in 713 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 1: with t d our producer who's in Nigeria perhaps England, uh, 714 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,800 Speaker 1: multiple weddings uh with his family right now. I said, 715 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,800 Speaker 1: last show that just to just to see if he's listening, 716 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:51,920 Speaker 1: because I, you know, as the producer of the show, 717 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 1: he should probably still be plugged in and listening to think. 718 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,840 Speaker 1: So he's traveling around the world. He could be listening 719 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 1: on a on a a car ride or or on 720 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 1: a plane. So I said, I'm gonna throw a magic 721 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 1: word out there, a secret password, and if he's listening, 722 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 1: he just could tweet it at me, email whatever, call 723 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:10,839 Speaker 1: me and tell me text me, which was of course 724 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: Ed Begley Jr. Didn't hear a thing. So maybe this show, 725 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 1: well this is this is the secret password for TV. 726 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:22,399 Speaker 1: Are you listening to our show? Pard Happily is number one? 727 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: Is the first issue we're going to talk about. Of course, 728 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 1: the fictitious TV anchorman of Ponty, Indiana in Parks and Reck. 729 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 1: So Pard happily is the secret word, secret phrase, secret 730 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:35,840 Speaker 1: name bird with Kurd TD. Come on, we need you, 731 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:37,879 Speaker 1: babe and hand us win the m v P last 732 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 1: show for this running bit, I like, he's not allowed. Yeah. 733 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 1: TD did not like that Sully was even doing it 734 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 1: in the intern. But I'll take it. Sully's most valuable player, 735 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 1: not not the the whole shows. Yeah, it's a different 736 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 1: property and entire It's like winning the CFL m v P. Alright, hey, 737 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,359 Speaker 1: I'll take I'll take it before we go, let's talk 738 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,880 Speaker 1: about it, let's get into it. Uh, it's it's the 739 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 1: game we like to call what more likely. Yes, it's 740 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 1: a game where each of us we go around the 741 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: horn here Uh, no connection to the ESPN show of 742 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 1: the same name. We go around the horn each layout 743 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: and this is gonna be the o t a S edition. 744 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 1: So everything should be connected to organized team activities or minicamps, 745 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 1: something that we've seen some storyline. Okay, each of us 746 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 1: layout two options and then we debate it. So again 747 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: again the Greg, the Boss they call him, also the Greg. 748 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 1: Why don't you get us going with a what's more like? 749 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna choose a simple one. It's been a topic 750 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 1: around here, but it's been a two man topic, and 751 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 1: I wanted to become a four man topica. A lot 752 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 1: of writers in Dallas say, Joseph Randall, he looks the 753 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,239 Speaker 1: best out of those Cowboys running backs right now that 754 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,879 Speaker 1: they think he's going to be the starter in week one. 755 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:55,360 Speaker 1: So I just want to throw it out to everyone. 756 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 1: I know, Wes is the answer here? What's more likely 757 00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,839 Speaker 1: Joseph Randall starts week one or Darren McFadden starts Week one. 758 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:06,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Joseph Randal, thank you, Mark smart that 759 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,920 Speaker 1: same thought out or you were caught off guard and 760 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,760 Speaker 1: then hesitated. Then well I could tell where the Boss 761 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 1: was going, and I was going to go in the 762 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:18,240 Speaker 1: same direction. Very smart man. Well you got anything, you know? Why? 763 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: Why not? Because Darren McFadden's competition and he's the most 764 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:25,839 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Right now. I got a feeling Chris 765 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 1: Westling is going to disagree. Greg's already said that we 766 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,399 Speaker 1: already know my answers. Well, maybe you change your mind 767 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:33,280 Speaker 1: there have you have to be a little more worried. 768 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,759 Speaker 1: Now we've had a few weeks of practices and uh, 769 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 1: the writers, it doesn't seem like McFadden is first in 770 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 1: line for the better watch out for Lance Dunbar for 771 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,440 Speaker 1: the seventeen time today, I will point out that it's 772 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: June ninth. None of this means Nick Fadden. I think 773 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 1: it's Randall too, because he showed a lot last year. 774 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 1: He showed when he got the ball that he could 775 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,840 Speaker 1: do things and and get get some positive yards. We 776 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: haven't seen that since from Darren McFadden in literally years. 777 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:05,320 Speaker 1: So I think Randall is the favorite. Uh you know again, 778 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 1: evaluate the game. You know, not the name and not 779 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:10,280 Speaker 1: the Joseph Randall has the name, But McFadden surely hasn't 780 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,040 Speaker 1: been the guy we thought he was gonna be years ago, 781 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,959 Speaker 1: so I think Randall stands a better chance. I still 782 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 1: think they should have got another running back, a better 783 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,359 Speaker 1: running back this season, and and it will haunt him. Well, 784 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 1: they did just bring in who did they bring in? Oh? 785 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:27,240 Speaker 1: They brought in Daniel Thomas and Greg's boy and the Unstoppable, 786 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:30,440 Speaker 1: the Great Who was it? I wrote the story? I 787 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:36,839 Speaker 1: actually remember Gregg is faster than Daniel Thomas. All right, 788 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 1: let's go what more likely? Okay, Joe Flacco said uh 789 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,840 Speaker 1: this week that he imagines he joined the Trope Club. 790 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 1: He imagines that he'll play till age forty. He's the 791 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:53,719 Speaker 1: latest guy we got. Now we have Tom Brady, of course, 792 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 1: Drew Brees. Now, Joe Flacco just turned thirty, thinks he 793 00:39:57,239 --> 00:39:59,400 Speaker 1: could play until forty. So I ask you what's more 794 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 1: likely Joe Flacco plays at age forty or Robert Griffin 795 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 1: the Third plays at age thirty. How old is RG 796 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: three right now? I believe he's about twenty six, but 797 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,680 Speaker 1: I'll double check twenty six. This is a good one. 798 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 1: I'll give you the age young. I gotta go with 799 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,319 Speaker 1: r G three regardless of the age. But I'll let 800 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 1: you he's twenty five. He just turned twenty five in February. 801 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,839 Speaker 1: He's he's a young kid. So five years from now, 802 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 1: I gotta go RG three. Even though Joe Flacco does 803 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,800 Speaker 1: seem like one of those guys that just will last 804 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 1: forever and maybe change teams a few, will be like 805 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:36,400 Speaker 1: a really good backup to have. I could see him 806 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,879 Speaker 1: in that role for sure. I still go RG three 807 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: because I think there's a great, great chance he's still 808 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 1: playing them thirty. I know things are going poorly, but 809 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 1: I don't think he's going to be out of the league. 810 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna have a events young type career. 811 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 1: I'll say RG three just because of his rookie year. 812 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:52,879 Speaker 1: I think it's going to keep buying him chances. Really, 813 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: I feel like he's almost used up all of that 814 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 1: rope if it hasn't happened on I feel like mcgluwin 815 00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 1: got to the Redskins in January and the first thing 816 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: he talked about at his first press conference was r 817 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:04,319 Speaker 1: G three's rookie year. And you just can't give up 818 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,320 Speaker 1: on quarterbacks who who showed on film with RG three showed. 819 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Flacco because number one, he has shown 820 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,279 Speaker 1: that he has been incredibly durable, never missed the game, 821 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 1: never missed the game, and I think he's he's undersold 822 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,719 Speaker 1: on that front. Five years is a long time for 823 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 1: r G three. To do further damaged himself if he 824 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,520 Speaker 1: doesn't become a capable starter. Uh and I And when 825 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 1: it comes to who would you rather work with as 826 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:28,880 Speaker 1: a backup, I think most people are going Flacco than 827 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 1: r G three has been a drama magnet from the 828 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 1: minute he got to Washington. What more likely, Wes Well, 829 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 1: we know the Bills have opened their quarterback position to competition. 830 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 1: A lot of people don't know that the Eagles have 831 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:46,839 Speaker 1: as well. Chip Kelly has said this is an open competition. 832 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 1: What's more likely Mark Sanchez, who the Beat writers have 833 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 1: all said looks much better this year than last year, 834 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 1: starts Week one or Matt Castle does not start Week 835 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:02,879 Speaker 1: one for the Bills. M hm, that's a good one. 836 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:06,920 Speaker 1: I had a Bradford one too. I think I'm not 837 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 1: buying into to the Tyrod Taylor stuff. I think that 838 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor, I think the Castle they brought him in 839 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 1: to be this this bridge guy until they figure out 840 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:17,800 Speaker 1: the position, and I'm not I have not been convinced 841 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 1: that's not gonna happen. So I think that he has 842 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 1: a better chance of starting Week one. And Bradford, who 843 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 1: seems like we just got the report he's moving a 844 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 1: little better. It is June nine, so he still has 845 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:31,479 Speaker 1: plenty of time to get even beyond jugs machine, beyond 846 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: remote control car. He can get even better. I Uh. 847 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:38,239 Speaker 1: The problem for Tyrod Taylor and Mark Sanchez is the 848 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: real games are gonna happen at some point. Isn't that 849 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 1: a problem for Matt Castle as well? Yes it is. 850 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:45,759 Speaker 1: It's a problem for all. I mean, anything could happen here, 851 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 1: but the option of Sanchez starting week one, I'm gonna 852 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 1: go with that because I just don't really trust that 853 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:54,280 Speaker 1: Bradford is going to be healthy and so that that's 854 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 1: really the key here. As you said, Sanchez starting or 855 00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 1: anyone but Castle, so it could be manual work. Now, 856 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:04,680 Speaker 1: I happen to think there's a good chance Castle starts, 857 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:06,160 Speaker 1: but I also I am starting to think there's a 858 00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 1: good chance Sanchez starts. I don't think it's that crazy. 859 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 1: Not only could Bradford not be healthy enough to start, 860 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:15,840 Speaker 1: but Santa's could just look good and you could just 861 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:20,319 Speaker 1: see a scenario where they play Sanchez early, saying they're 862 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 1: giving Bradford more time and then they can pull the 863 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 1: plug on him a lot easier. Oh, I like it. 864 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:29,480 Speaker 1: They turned his back on Matt Castle for the first 865 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 1: time in Matt Castle's eleven year career. Greg Rest is 866 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 1: not in his corner Stunner Mark alright, Floram Park, New York. 867 00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:46,759 Speaker 1: Oh god, A doing this? This is different, you asked, 868 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 1: I love it. You know this is actually your over 869 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: silling this. I just was to where we are. Flora 870 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:57,840 Speaker 1: Brand Marshall, Gino Smith. They've been living together in Geno's house. 871 00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 1: I love it. It's a great offseason thing. You know. 872 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 1: They do the dishes together. They watch a Little House 873 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 1: of Cards on Netflix. They're drinking cups of Sleepy Time 874 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:09,239 Speaker 1: team after practice. These two are pals. So what is 875 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 1: more likely Brandon Marshall and Gino Smith pair for a 876 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 1: hundred plus receptions or Marshall moves out of Geno Smith's 877 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 1: house and talks tabloid fireball trash about the shaky passer 878 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 1: by week six? You got me there with the robadote. 879 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:28,560 Speaker 1: Very good. What's more likely? Well, ponder your answer. Well, 880 00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 1: what you're saying means if Brandon Marshall is gonna catch 881 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 1: a hundred, Gino Smith passes, Uh, excuse me, the other 882 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:37,320 Speaker 1: way around, Geno Smith, I can't talk. They will combine 883 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,759 Speaker 1: for they're gonna combine for Geno Smith probably has to 884 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:41,879 Speaker 1: start sixteen games that are close to it, and that's 885 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,360 Speaker 1: part of it that I don't know if it's gonna happen. 886 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 1: I'm going with Gino Smith and Brandon Marshall make some 887 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 1: sweet magic and Chan Gailey's short passing offense a lot 888 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 1: of those loves, bubble screens or whatever you wanna call them. Yeah, 889 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 1: just short passes. That's what we're focusing on here. Brandon Marshall, 890 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 1: he's alway is a mench in year one. He's not 891 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 1: going to talk trash about until next year. So what's 892 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,920 Speaker 1: the second option? They move out? Well, they're definitely moving out, 893 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 1: and house arrangement is you know, it ends quicker than 894 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:12,879 Speaker 1: that than not because of the play on the field 895 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 1: and Marshall's talking trash about Gino by week six. Well, 896 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 1: here's that. I don't think that they're going to be 897 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:20,440 Speaker 1: living together all season. I think this is Well, that 898 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 1: tells you they're not quite the two friends you thought 899 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:27,160 Speaker 1: that Marshall was married. They're both millionaires. Yeah, it seems like, Hey, 900 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 1: I just moved to town and it's gonna you know, 901 00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:30,799 Speaker 1: I'm looking for a place we'll get it for the 902 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 1: season type of thing. I think I don't trust Gino 903 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 1: Smith to play sixteen games. I think he's gonna find 904 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 1: himself being benched because his decision making is bad enough. 905 00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 1: Did you did you answer it, Hans? Uh? Did? I? 906 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:43,719 Speaker 1: I don't remember. Oh no, I didn't really answer it. 907 00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:46,239 Speaker 1: I think Ryan Fitzpatrick is definitely going to start at 908 00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 1: least four games for this team. So there's no way 909 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:50,640 Speaker 1: that there will be a hundred catches for Brendan Marshall 910 00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:55,760 Speaker 1: coming at least coming directly from Gino Smith. What more likely? 911 00:45:56,640 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 1: All right, this is all about your boys for the scientists, Greg, 912 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:06,840 Speaker 1: your boy Frank Gore runs for over twelve and fifty 913 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 1: yards would be the second highest total of his career, 914 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:14,800 Speaker 1: or West your boy Odell Beckham surpasses his two thousand, 915 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 1: fourteen receiving total, which is five yards in twelve games. 916 00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,360 Speaker 1: Now keep in mind Frank Gore this week has said 917 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,839 Speaker 1: I've never seen six men in the box. I'm gonna 918 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 1: have a lot of running room, and you know the 919 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:29,640 Speaker 1: cults are gonna try to run the ball. Twelve fifty 920 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:35,000 Speaker 1: for Gore over for Beckham. This one's easy and unless 921 00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:37,719 Speaker 1: Beckham gets hurt, I guarantee you he does better than 922 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 1: he did last what's a big unless Well, it's tune. 923 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:44,200 Speaker 1: But he could get hurt again. Any player in the 924 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:47,719 Speaker 1: NF was hurt last year, and news context sport if 925 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 1: any player doesn't get hurt, they'll do it. I go 926 00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 1: Beckham too, because I don't think the Cults need Frank 927 00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 1: Gore to do that, where the Niners certainly did, and 928 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,879 Speaker 1: he was the centerpiece year after year. I don't think 929 00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:01,040 Speaker 1: that's how that offense is gonna play out. He doesn't 930 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 1: need a ton of carries to get to twelve, and 931 00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:04,800 Speaker 1: he'll get close. But I'm gonna go Backham just because 932 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 1: of where the two are in their careering or doesn't 933 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 1: have breakaway ability anymore. Either. It's harder to getty yards 934 00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 1: when you aren't getting fifty or sixty yard runs. I 935 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:17,240 Speaker 1: gotta go with the inconvenient true thing. I can't smite 936 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:20,760 Speaker 1: Frank Gore and Matt Castle in the same show. Beckham 937 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:23,320 Speaker 1: just seems like if he misses five games again, it 938 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:25,359 Speaker 1: would be tough to repeat the season he had last year. 939 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:27,840 Speaker 1: If Gore misses five games, he won't get a thousand yards. 940 00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:30,200 Speaker 1: That's fair, I think. I think Gore is in such 941 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,719 Speaker 1: a beautiful situation there that he just has to do 942 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:36,319 Speaker 1: kind of what he's been doing. I do think they'll 943 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 1: give him three under carries. Then I think he's right. 944 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,200 Speaker 1: He's going to see plenty of room more than he 945 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 1: has recently. More likely, who's up Greg too? Players I 946 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,839 Speaker 1: think that have been hyped the most or at least 947 00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 1: feel like, Okay, we've got the big offseason addition, Jimmy 948 00:47:56,120 --> 00:48:02,879 Speaker 1: Graham in Seattle, Lashawn McCoy over in Buffalo, who's the guy? 949 00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:09,320 Speaker 1: What's more likely? Jimmy Graham is inspiring What's gone Wrong 950 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 1: articles by mid season? Or let's Sean McCoy is inspired 951 00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:19,240 Speaker 1: What's gone wrong articles? It's great. You always doubt yourself 952 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:22,120 Speaker 1: with these games, but that is great. What's more likely? Thanks, 953 00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:26,799 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Shawn McCoy because A that's not 954 00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:29,480 Speaker 1: a premier offensive line, and I'm not sure what they're 955 00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:32,200 Speaker 1: gonna ask them do. They've got terrible issues at quarterback potentially, 956 00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:37,000 Speaker 1: and the same Gore. Jimmy Graham in Seattle is not 957 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:39,279 Speaker 1: unlike what how I viewed Gore in Indianapolis. It's a 958 00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:41,880 Speaker 1: great matchup for Graham to be on a team that 959 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,319 Speaker 1: can run the ball that well, he'll have good spots. 960 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna turn into a red zone type weapon. 961 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:48,560 Speaker 1: The whole thing could go bad, but I don't think 962 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:50,560 Speaker 1: it's gonna go bad in Seattle. The Bills have to 963 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:53,719 Speaker 1: show me they can win games. I'm with Mark. I 964 00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 1: think that a healthy Jimmy Graham, when he's not playing 965 00:48:56,600 --> 00:49:02,759 Speaker 1: through a serious injury, is unstoppable. Remember the old whisper, 966 00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 1: remember that a little thing. And the Saints, I feel 967 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:10,960 Speaker 1: like they've been sending out some whispers all off season, 968 00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:13,520 Speaker 1: just a little little crumbs of oh, you know, maybe 969 00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:16,839 Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham isn't the player, the guy that everything that 970 00:49:16,880 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 1: you think he is. I agree, freaking me out, I agree, 971 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:21,960 Speaker 1: he probably is not the best teammate in the NFL. 972 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 1: Lashan McCoy is showing himself to be a crazy person, 973 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:27,719 Speaker 1: then I will say, I will say that jumping off West, 974 00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:29,440 Speaker 1: so he's not. That's another one. Let me make that 975 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:32,320 Speaker 1: one point, Leshan McCoy. People forget wasn't a good player 976 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:37,040 Speaker 1: last year. It's fair it wasn't great. Um jumping off 977 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:40,520 Speaker 1: West's previous point. I believe that I'm kind of It's 978 00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 1: hard for me to make a judgment here because I'm 979 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 1: partial or impartial. Les Sean McCoy is not on my 980 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 1: s list right now. I don't like what I don't 981 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,080 Speaker 1: like Lashawn McCoy's offseason. He's kind of gotten under my skin. 982 00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 1: I didn't like the way he answered questions last week. 983 00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,840 Speaker 1: I think he's come up as arrogant to me. Um 984 00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:01,280 Speaker 1: so I'm on team Jimmy Plus, I think that's probably 985 00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:03,040 Speaker 1: more likely that he has a nice season. There won't 986 00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:10,280 Speaker 1: be those stories, all right. What more likely? Raiders linebacker 987 00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:14,440 Speaker 1: Curtis Lofton recently called a bulked up Khalil Mack a monster. 988 00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:20,800 Speaker 1: Dolphins linebacker Jelanni Jenkins recently called rookie DeVante Parker an animal? 989 00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:24,520 Speaker 1: What's more likely Mac plays like a monster or Parker 990 00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:27,040 Speaker 1: plays like an animal this season? Now, see, if you 991 00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:29,959 Speaker 1: really wanted to sesslrize this post, you would have made 992 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:35,560 Speaker 1: it Khalil Mack turns into a monster, yeah, or turns 993 00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 1: into an animal? Or which animal? Would a monster or 994 00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:42,239 Speaker 1: an animal? Well that's basically what I mean. But you 995 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:45,800 Speaker 1: asked the fair football question. I like that question. Everything 996 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 1: I hear it sounds like Khalil Mack is on his 997 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,480 Speaker 1: way to superstar Land, even though he's stuck with a 998 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:53,520 Speaker 1: crumby team. But I see this as maybe being his 999 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:56,360 Speaker 1: breakout season to the point where I don't know, not 1000 00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:58,359 Speaker 1: involved with making the Leap. I'll be watching this from 1001 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:01,760 Speaker 1: the outside our series this season, but I would assume 1002 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:04,120 Speaker 1: he's going to be on the list. He should be. Uh, 1003 00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 1: he's gonna have a monster year. I think Max showed 1004 00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:11,239 Speaker 1: us hints of what's to come last season, and so 1005 00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:13,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with a player that's already put it 1006 00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:15,960 Speaker 1: on tape. There you go, I'm going mac to it. 1007 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:19,600 Speaker 1: I do like Jack del Rio arriving there and giving 1008 00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:23,640 Speaker 1: maxim love over his old teammate von Miller, unnecessarily making 1009 00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:29,279 Speaker 1: von Miller mad? What more? Alright, Dan just mentioned making 1010 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 1: the Leap? I did. That's one of the running series 1011 00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:33,960 Speaker 1: of the Around the NFL group starts in two weeks. 1012 00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:36,839 Speaker 1: Let's be honest. We can pretty it up all we want, 1013 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:39,160 Speaker 1: but last year we swung and missed on way too 1014 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:42,320 Speaker 1: many of these players. We're doing twenty this time around, 1015 00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:46,400 Speaker 1: correct the boss? All right? So what is more likely? 1016 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:49,480 Speaker 1: Around the NFL's Making the Leap series hits on at 1017 00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:54,120 Speaker 1: least ten of twenty player predictions this year, or the 1018 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:57,799 Speaker 1: Boss retires after the Super Bowl to pursue a new 1019 00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:01,080 Speaker 1: career as a writer of adolescent mystery and novels featuring 1020 00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:07,839 Speaker 1: a female team Gumshoe named Jenny Silver. That definitely some 1021 00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:10,359 Speaker 1: of the thematic elements that you name there can tie 1022 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:12,960 Speaker 1: into some of Greg's work with Delaware, which was a 1023 00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:15,960 Speaker 1: lot of it was about adolescent coming home of sorts 1024 00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:22,200 Speaker 1: for Greg Jenny Silver. So so you like myself, I'm not. 1025 00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 1: I don't know that connection. You seem to already be 1026 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 1: thinking about the story itself, though it's not a bad idea. 1027 00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:30,719 Speaker 1: What was the first one? We don't remember the first 1028 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 1: an what that's subjective? How do you know if you 1029 00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:36,640 Speaker 1: hit on? Well, I think we can say last year 1030 00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:39,800 Speaker 1: that we certainly did not do that. Okay, I just 1031 00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,240 Speaker 1: because I like the Greg one, I'll go with that. 1032 00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:45,760 Speaker 1: I don't care about the round. You know, there should 1033 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:49,080 Speaker 1: there's an addendum to this Mark's power play when Greg 1034 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:52,400 Speaker 1: decides to go right take over the around the always 1035 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:57,520 Speaker 1: been cooking underneath. It's always been one of the little 1036 00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:02,080 Speaker 1: colonels Mark Mark starts, you know, leaving around the different 1037 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:05,800 Speaker 1: NFL off. Hey, you guys, hear that rumor that Greg's 1038 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:08,560 Speaker 1: really into the adolescent team fiction might want to be 1039 00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:10,919 Speaker 1: leaving soon, like what the Saints are doing with Jimmy Graham. 1040 00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 1: Doesn't it works? What more? Alright, let's do uh one 1041 00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:22,800 Speaker 1: more quick round? Here we go. New Browns punter and 1042 00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:26,359 Speaker 1: Andy Lee win Super Bowl m v P. Or Chip 1043 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:29,680 Speaker 1: Kelly releases Darren Sprawls and signs Reese Witherspoon as his 1044 00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:33,200 Speaker 1: change of face back. I think Chip Kelly's kind of unpredictable. 1045 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:35,839 Speaker 1: I'll go with b Reese Weatherspoon is playing as an 1046 00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:39,040 Speaker 1: Eagle because he probably knows something about her greatness that 1047 00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:42,279 Speaker 1: everyone else does not know yet. Well, I disagree with 1048 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:46,160 Speaker 1: WESR because Cleveland went out on a Saturday. Like I said, 1049 00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:50,280 Speaker 1: all thirty one other teams just lazing around, sitting around 1050 00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:53,600 Speaker 1: watching television shows. Cleveland sends a seventh round pick from 1051 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:56,600 Speaker 1: two years from now for a multiple Pro Bowl punter. 1052 00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 1: That's what you do, that's how you get better. Super Bowl. 1053 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:01,680 Speaker 1: I think you gotta go. She's a North South runner 1054 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:05,399 Speaker 1: kind of runner. Chip likes hits it up in there, 1055 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:08,759 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Hold on, hold on, hold on, 1056 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:11,520 Speaker 1: did I just hear super Bowl and Brown's in the 1057 00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 1: same Yes you did, sir, So that seems crazy to you. 1058 00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:22,120 Speaker 1: That's the least three Cessia should just be happy that 1059 00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:25,160 Speaker 1: slowly doesn't know about the factory of sadness trap. Oh 1060 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:28,480 Speaker 1: I do. I just have to switch alright, not too late. 1061 00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:34,759 Speaker 1: Just what somebody throwing out there, all right. Titans wide 1062 00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:38,040 Speaker 1: receivers coach Shawn Jefferson said that Marcus Mariota has been 1063 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:40,799 Speaker 1: deadly accurate in O t a Is, adding that he 1064 00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 1: is giddy about the rookie. So Marcus Mariota throws twenty 1065 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,800 Speaker 1: plus touchdown passes next season as a rookie, or Jamis 1066 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:54,120 Speaker 1: Winston leads the NFL and interceptions. I think it's I 1067 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:56,480 Speaker 1: think it's very likely that Jamis Winston leads the NFL 1068 00:54:56,520 --> 00:55:00,400 Speaker 1: and interceptions, So I'll take that one. I strongly disagree. 1069 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:03,239 Speaker 1: I think they're both very possible. But Derek Carr through 1070 00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:06,600 Speaker 1: twenty touchdowns, heck, Marcus Mariota can do it. I mean, 1071 00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:09,840 Speaker 1: I think that's that's a better chance of happening. Mariota. 1072 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:13,239 Speaker 1: Nice use of heck, wow, it's gonna bringing it back. 1073 00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:15,359 Speaker 1: I would go with Mariota only because you don't know 1074 00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 1: how Crantastic. All the other quarterbacks in the NFL will 1075 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:20,920 Speaker 1: be uh so there could you know? Somebody could be 1076 00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:24,400 Speaker 1: lurking out there, uh to throw thirty five interceptions? You 1077 00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:27,160 Speaker 1: never know anyone for more than eighteen last year, Josh 1078 00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:29,319 Speaker 1: mccowen's going to be a starting job, have a job 1079 00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:32,080 Speaker 1: all year that will be fine. That was for thirty five, 1080 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 1: since Testive already did in the mid eighties. If if 1081 00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:36,960 Speaker 1: eighteen was the league leader last year, that seems that 1082 00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:39,160 Speaker 1: has to be low because Winston is gonna throw at 1083 00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:42,480 Speaker 1: least twenty I would think anyway, I think that Mariota 1084 00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:45,879 Speaker 1: will probably do something. So I'm gonna say, sure, why 1085 00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:50,480 Speaker 1: not Marcus Mariota? Anybody got one of us? Are we done? Alright? 1086 00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:52,879 Speaker 1: One more? Last one? Here we go. Chris was more 1087 00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 1: likely got a rookie wide receiver showdown here. What's more 1088 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:01,800 Speaker 1: likely Brashad param leads to the Ravens and receiving yards 1089 00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:06,520 Speaker 1: or Kevin White leads the Bears in receiving yards. M hmm. 1090 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:12,400 Speaker 1: I'm going with Perriman because Alshan Jefferies still to me 1091 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:14,200 Speaker 1: one of the best young white house in the league, 1092 00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:20,520 Speaker 1: whereas Perriman's it's a more uncertain situation. Steve Smith is ancient. Uh, 1093 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:22,799 Speaker 1: there's a real chance in Baltimore for him to do that. 1094 00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:25,920 Speaker 1: And they've got a functional quarterback that we all trust 1095 00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:28,399 Speaker 1: to some degree, and they are a well run team 1096 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:30,080 Speaker 1: that's done a good job with young players. So I'm 1097 00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:32,880 Speaker 1: gonna go perman. I feel like with that haircut, that hairline, 1098 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 1: he's not gonna inspire confidence from It's gonna shave it 1099 00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:38,840 Speaker 1: go the end, and there's gotta be Kevin White. You 1100 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:41,440 Speaker 1: always go with the player. It's like fantasy football. Let's 1101 00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:45,799 Speaker 1: go with the better player. Good job that is, that's 1102 00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:48,239 Speaker 1: what's more likely. Uh. And that is the end of 1103 00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:50,640 Speaker 1: the Round the NFL Podcast. We'll be be back on Thursday, 1104 00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:53,319 Speaker 1: and by the way again when West as Toaster back 1105 00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 1: next Thursday.
