They're they're they're iffy, they're on 37 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 2: they're in the hunt, or they're back. 38 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: In the possibly Philip Rivers playing in the playoffs. 39 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 2: I don't think that's gonna happen.

Yeah, three and 47 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 2: a half quarters before they kick a field goal at 48 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 2: the end of the game to win, Like, how incredible 49 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 2: is it for you? Just be like, Yo, look at 50 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 2: this man doing his thing who's older than all. 51 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 3: Yes, he won the game for fifty nine minutes in 52 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 3: thirty seconds, is right? I mean, you know, I can't 53 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:24,839 Speaker 3: imagine what he feels like this morning. Yeah, he has 54 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 3: to feel just I can't even process how bad he 55 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 3: feels and sore. But I do think he wakes up 56 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 3: this morning, walks out to get the paper or whatever 57 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 3: the hell guys do, and he's like that was pretty 58 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 3: fucking awesome. Yeah, Like, I just came off the bench 59 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 3: cold coaching high school ball. Haven't trained. I mean, he's 60 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 3: worked out, but there's a difference between training and working out, 61 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 3: And I just went against arguably the best team in 62 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 3: the league, arguably the best defense in the league, in 63 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 3: one of the hardest places in football to play for 64 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 3: a decade, and took my team down on a game 65 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 3: winning game to take the lead in what could have 66 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 3: been a game winning field goal. Only that and then 67 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 3: obviously have your heart broken by giving up a game 68 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 3: winning field goal. So I actually think he wakes up 69 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,959 Speaker 3: this morning physically sore and beat but I think mentally 70 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 3: he walks around his house with his twelve kids, and 71 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 3: he walks around that high school of those boys that 72 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 3: he coaches, and he's like, any more questions, who's the 73 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 3: baddest dude around because it's me bro questions. 74 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just it's just nuts to see.

We're not gonna be able to do that. 79 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 2: We also starting quarterback are guy we traded for. He's 80 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 2: been hurt, and they're like, hey, let's just let's make 81 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 2: something out of nothing here.

Then watching Rivers like kind of go back. 88 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 2: He goes to like hitch step up in the pocket 89 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: and he like slips, realizes, oh shit, they're getting close. 90 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 2: It kind of like starts this like baby crawl thing 91 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: as they kind of just touched him, and he's like, 92 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 2: wooh fuck, that was a close one.

See some throws out to 95 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 2: the sideline that just kind of die off, and you're like, 96 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 2: that's what you're gonna get. That's what you're gonna get 97 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 2: with the boy quick decisions. It's awesome. 98 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: He's changing plays. Like I watched that game and I'm like, 99 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: Colts have a shot to get in the playoffs. I 100 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: was watch tuned into that game to just enjoy watching 101 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers like come back like five years, Like, man, 102 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: is this forty four year old gonna be able to 103 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: do it? To Whard. Now I'm towards the end of 104 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: the game, I'm like, yo, I'm not counting the Colts 105 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: out yet to make the playoffs. 106 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 3: Have them next week.

I'm with you, Will, 108 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 3: I'm like genuinely excited to call his game. I hope 109 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 3: he makes it. Yeah, I hope they It's got to 110 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 3: stay alive for at least one more week because I'm 111 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 3: doing their game in Indye in two weeks when Jacksonville 112 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 3: comes in again. Two teams that are at least theoretically 113 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 3: in the playoff picture and in the hunt there in 114 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 3: the AFC, and it's a more interesting game, and I'm 115 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 3: more excited about the game with the potential of him 116 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 3: being the quarterback. For sure, he's. 117 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 2: Gonna make it through the forty nine ers. Yeah, forty 118 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 2: nine ers. They got Jaguars and they got the Texans. 119 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 3: Yeah he didn't. He didn't exactly come back for a 120 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 3: easy defensive stretch. 121 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 1: No doubt. 122 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 2: But if you're if you're like looking at that jan 123 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 2: fourth game or whatever the last game of the year 124 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 2: is for them, you've got to hope that either the 125 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 2: Texans have the South kind of wrapped up and they're 126 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 2: not really fighting for anything. And if they are, like 127 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 2: Will Anderson and Daniel Hunter, they are getting pulled to 128 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 2: the side for the game, like hey, yeah. 129 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 1: Just lay him down, just don't kill the man. 130 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 3: Yeah. 131 00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 2: Have you seen the bit of like Kevin Hart when 132 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 2: he was on and I don't know if it was 133 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 2: ESPN or foul or wherever he was at h and 134 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 2: he was talking about how you have to like put 135 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 2: the quarterback down now. Then they pick him up and 136 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 2: they lay him down, they get him a pillow, Like 137 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 2: that's what I need them to do with Philip Rivers, like, 138 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,799 Speaker 2: we got to protect this man at all costs. 139 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 3: Texas are as a country, as a country, we need 140 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 3: to protect him. 141 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 1: The Texans that game, it's probably gonna be a winning 142 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: in game for the Texans. That sucks that, that's I'm 143 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: just because the Jaguars are playing good football. Bro. Yeah, 144 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: right now they're on top. Right now, they're on top. 145 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: Big game. They both this is uh, this is Texas 146 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 1: Jaguars this weekend. 147 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I believe so. Yeah, this one's gonna be a decider, yea. 148 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 2: They both sitting run the same record right now. You 149 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: called the Eagles Raiders game just was that the worst 150 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 2: game of all time. 151 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 3: The Raiders are really bad. They're just and we and 152 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 3: we felt like we talked about it for three quarters 153 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 3: because the game was pretty much decided pretty quickly. Philly 154 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 3: played well. Philly did every thing they needed to coming in. 155 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 3: Jalen had some nice deep balls, they used him as 156 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 3: a design runner, had a couple scrambles. Saquan had a 157 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 3: really quiet first half. They got him going there in 158 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 3: the third quarter, and then they didn't really need him 159 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 3: in the fourth the game was over. Aj Brown had 160 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 3: a nice deep touchdown, so they checked. The defense is nasty. Obviously, 161 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 3: pitching a shutout in the NFL is not easy to do, 162 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 3: so I think from the Eagle standpoint, you check the box, 163 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 3: you move on. The Raiders they got they got a 164 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 3: lot of problems. They got a lot they got roster problems, 165 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 3: They've got decision problems. They got to figure out what 166 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 3: they're They've ready fired two of their three coordinators. They 167 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 3: didn't make it through their first season. You know who's 168 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 3: the quarterback of the future. They traded for Gina, who 169 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 3: I love as a guy. He was a teammate of 170 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 3: mine and a guy I just I love him. He's 171 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 3: everything you'd want in a teammate and a dude. They 172 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 3: trade for him, they give him seventy five million. I 173 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 3: think they completely misjudged how close that roster was to winning. 174 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 3: You know, you trade for Gino, you give up a 175 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 3: third round pick for him, you give him seventy five million. 176 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 3: I think it was like sixty something guaranteed that you 177 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 3: with the sixth overall pick, you take a running back, 178 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 3: You put them behind an offensive line that might be 179 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,239 Speaker 3: the worst in the league. If not, they're in. They're 180 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 3: in the running. You don't even know gent D's on 181 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 3: the team. And I don't even mean that as an 182 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 3: indictment on him. I think he's a good young player. 183 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 3: It's just he's it's meaningless to have a running back 184 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 3: on a team that's never winning and can't block anybody, 185 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 3: so it's just not an impactful position. Brock Bauers is 186 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 3: a stud. They're two best players are brock Bauers and 187 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 3: Max Crosby, and the problem is neither one of them 188 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 3: can truly impact the game because of the chaos going 189 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 3: around them. So they're wasting two of the premier players 190 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 3: in the league respectively. Really have very little impact, and 191 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 3: that's a problem. 192 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you do, Like, what do you do 193 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,079 Speaker 1: in this situation where you invest and you think you're 194 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 1: you're closer than you really are and you have all 195 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: these problems roster wise, coaching staff wise, Like, what do 196 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: you do, Like, say, Pete Carroll's the guy next year, 197 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: what do you look at doing first? Is it again, 198 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: You're you're in a situation where you're always playing from behind. 199 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 1: So to your point, you're never really able to use 200 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: Max Crosby to the best of his ability. Do you 201 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,959 Speaker 1: look at moving Max Crosby to get some draft equity 202 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 1: to just start looking to fill all of these holes 203 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: everywhere else? 204 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 3: Yeah? So I think it's a complicated. So if I 205 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 3: played like Magic GM for a day, ye, you know 206 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 3: what would be my first First off? You need to 207 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 3: sit down in a room with the powers to be 208 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 3: and you need to have a real honest assessment about 209 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 3: where are we and how close are we to our 210 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 3: competitive cycle? Right? And I think that was part of 211 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 3: the issue a year ago. You hire a guy like 212 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 3: Pete Carroll who's not used to losing, he has won 213 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 3: ten plus games, it feels like forever. Yeah, obviously from 214 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 3: college and then what he did in Seattle. You're hiring 215 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 3: a guy who is not a long term in three years, 216 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 3: we're going to be good. The expectation is we're going 217 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 3: to win now because I only know winning. I only 218 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 3: know ten plus wins. I only know playoff games. Like 219 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 3: that's all Pete understands. That's his power, that's his eternal 220 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 3: optimistic brain that has made him as good of a 221 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 3: coach as he's been. So I think there's a little 222 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 3: bit of a misalignment there. We're being honest. I think 223 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 3: they need to sit down and say, Okay, we need 224 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 3: to be good in two years, we need to be 225 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 3: good in three years whatever. That realistic approach and every 226 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 3: decision needs to be made through that lens. So can 227 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 3: you if they get the first or second overall pick 228 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 3: that that game against the Giants feels like it's going 229 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 3: to decide who you know, the loser actually wins because 230 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 3: you'll get the higher pick. Do you love any of 231 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,839 Speaker 3: these quarterbacks? Right? You need a quarterback. You need to 232 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 3: get a young quarterback so you can build around them cheaply. 233 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 3: Do you love Fernando Mendoza? Do you love the kid 234 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 3: from or what is it Dante Kid from Oregon, Dante Moore? 235 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 3: You know, do you love them? That's a question. If 236 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 3: you don't, can you trade down? Right? Is one pick 237 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 3: gonna change your franchise? 238 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 4: No? 239 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 3: Can you trade down from one to middle of the pack, 240 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 3: get a bunch of picks and accumulate. You know, the 241 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,239 Speaker 3: Max Crosby thing's real. We talked about it on the broadcast. 242 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 3: He's a premier player in the league regardless of position. 243 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 3: You have to ask yourself, no different than Miles Garrett. 244 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 3: As good as they are individually, our current roster makeup 245 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 3: and our current play style for as good as they are, 246 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 3: doesn't matter. And the answer is no, it clearly doesn't matter. 247 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 3: It clearly doesn't impact wins because what they do great, 248 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 3: You're not in position for that to actually have an 249 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 3: impact on the outcome of the game, which is essentially 250 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,839 Speaker 3: that matters. So those are really hard decisions, Those are 251 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 3: really complex, long term thinking. But I think if they 252 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 3: continue to just patchwork it and just put vand aid 253 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 3: band aid, and there's not a real comprehensive plan to 254 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 3: say we are going to do all these difficult things 255 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 3: now in the moment so that we have the ability 256 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,679 Speaker 3: to be good in two or three years. I think 257 00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 3: they're a long way off. 258 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you too, Like I don't think 259 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: Max wants to leave. I don't think that fan base 260 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 1: wants them to leave. Like it's going to be a 261 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: tough breakup, but one that's like just feels like that's 262 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 1: why if you want to be a good organization or 263 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: a good football team in a couple of years or 264 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 1: a few years, like that is one of those tough 265 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: decisions that you would have to make. 266 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, the biggest issue that you're dealing with is that 267 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 2: the owner is not known for having a lot of 268 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 2: patients behind his decision making when it comes to GM's 269 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 2: head coaches and. 270 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: That type of thing. 271 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 2: So we're talking about two three years from now being 272 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 2: successful when we know the league is one of the 273 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 2: more impatient organizations of all time, And so it's like, 274 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 2: is peak care there in two three years? Because foundationally, 275 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 2: you're right, like band aid, band aid, band aid, you 276 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 2: have to do a complete foundational overload of what's taking 277 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 2: place in Las Vegas. 278 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, so think about it. They had the sixth overall pick, 279 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 3: between a third round pick, a fifth round pick, and 280 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 3: a sixth overall pick. They got Geno Kenny pick at 281 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 3: the backup quarterback and Ashton Genty a running back. 282 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 2: Tough. 283 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, but now. 284 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 3: You go back and you say, Okay, you want to trade, 285 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 3: you want to accumulate picks, you want to play through 286 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 3: the draft. Now they do have a ton of cap 287 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 3: I want to stay off the top of my head, 288 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 3: it's like maybe the second most cap spending for next year, 289 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 3: or they're in the top like three. So there is 290 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 3: a lot of opportunity for them to add free agents 291 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 3: and to ad guys because they have a ton of money. 292 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 3: We saw the Patriots do it and surround a much 293 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 3: improved roster with Vrabel they spent the most in free agency, 294 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 3: and then obviously they've hit with Drake May. And that's 295 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 3: the perfect storm because you take advantage of your really good, young, 296 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 3: cheap quarterback. So the problem with doing that is you 297 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 3: got to make sure you have your young cheap quarterback right, 298 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 3: not only getting one, but is he the guy that 299 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 3: I can ride this five year window where I'm not 300 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 3: paying him top dollar, I can afford all these other 301 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 3: positions and we can ride that all out. What New 302 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 3: England's doing now and what you know, the Vikings, they 303 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 3: were the second highest spenders. But I say all of 304 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 3: that is you can accumulate as many draft picks as 305 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 3: you want. Think it wasn't too long ago that they 306 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 3: traded Khalil Mack in a blockbuster trade from the Raiders 307 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 3: to the Bears. And they accumulate all those first round picks, 308 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 3: and that's going to change their future. And I don't 309 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 3: I think like one of those first round picks. I 310 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 3: think like Colton Miller, who's on the ir the offensive tackle, 311 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 3: he might be the only first round pick left and 312 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 3: if there isn't nothing, they might have it. No, they 313 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 3: have a defensive lineman from like Texas A and M 314 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 3: that's a backup. But like they've had all these first 315 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 3: round picks and most of them are not even in 316 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 3: the league. So you accumulate all this draft capital, but 317 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 3: it's only as good as your ability to execute and 318 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 3: actually draft good players. That's why Philly's been so good. 319 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 3: All these guys that Phillies drafted, especially on defense, have 320 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 3: become really good players. 321 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: Right right. Staying in the AFC, last week, we're kind 322 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 1: of talking how wide open the AFC is. There's really 323 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: nobody that you go into the playoffs thinking like I 324 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: don't want to play against this team after yesterday. Are 325 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: there any team sticking out to you to where it's like, hey, 326 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: I don't want to have to face this football team. 327 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 3: I thought Denver had a really impressive win. 328 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: I agree. 329 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 3: I thought I thought that was really a really good win. Again, 330 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 3: I didn't catch all four quarters. I caught the most 331 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 3: of it traveling home. I thought that was really impressive. 332 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 3: I thought bo Nicks played as well as he has. 333 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 3: You know, they beat a good Packers team. I think 334 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 3: that comeback win for Josh Allen and the Bills. Again, 335 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 3: is it the roster? Is it the play style that 336 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 3: we're accustomed to. No, we We've talked about that throughout 337 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 3: the course of the year. It looks a little different. 338 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 3: It feels a little different. But I'll tell you what 339 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 3: these last two weeks, Josh Allen's been Josh Allen. 340 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. 341 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 3: And he did it in the snow at home against Burrow, 342 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 3: bringing them back and pretty much putting the game on 343 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 3: his back two weeks ago. And then he's down twenty 344 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 3: one to nothing on the road to at the time 345 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 3: the number one seed in the in the conference and 346 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 3: brings him back for a huge comfort behind wins so 347 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 3: you know, I still believe that that AFC is a 348 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 3: toss up. I believe I can make an argument that 349 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 3: five or six of those teams they go through Texans. Right, Like, 350 00:15:55,720 --> 00:16:00,080 Speaker 3: we've talked so much about the Texans defense, and it 351 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 3: feels like their offense is getting a little bit better. 352 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 3: They're a little better. 353 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, they put they put a forty burger on the Cardinals, 354 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 2: and that's exciting because you want to you want them 355 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 2: to do the things they're supposed to do against inferior teams, 356 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 2: which they did. But I think I think just looking 357 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 2: the weekend, we're looking at yah. 358 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: First part of the year. If I'm being optimistic, I 359 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: guess for the Texans offense in the first half of 360 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: the year, I don't think that offense would have put 361 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: up forty on a team like the I agree, you 362 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: know what I mean to where it's like you're at 363 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: least like they were coming along a little bit. Forget 364 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: whoever the jersey on the other side is if it 365 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: was the Raiders, maybe we'd have kind of a different too. 366 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: But I just feel like them being able to put 367 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: up forty against the Cardinals to kind of at least 368 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: compare a little bit to that elite defense has got 369 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: to be if you're a Texas fan, you got to 370 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: be feeling great going into or being in December. 371 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's definitely. I think when it comes to AFC, 372 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 2: they've been just sitting there in front of our faces 373 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 2: a whole year. But it's the Denver Broncos. Like they 374 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 2: have one of the best defenses in the entire league. 375 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 2: They have one of the best offense. I think their 376 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 2: offensive line has given up the least amount of sacks 377 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 2: out of any other offensive line in the entire NFL. 378 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 2: And the biggest question mark is is bow Nixy to 379 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 2: take that next step because they're putting a lot pressure 380 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 2: on this kid going into year two. He goes and 381 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,959 Speaker 2: plays at home against a great Packers team and you know, 382 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,400 Speaker 2: gets into a bit of a shootout for four tuddies, 383 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,360 Speaker 2: and it's like, oh, okay, in my opinion right now 384 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 2: as it stands, and this is so weak to week 385 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 2: where we all kind of like have these grand gesture opinions, 386 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,400 Speaker 2: but it's like, oh, it's clearly the Broncos right now. 387 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 2: The way the Patriots fell apart after being up twenty 388 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 2: one to zero against the Bills, the Houston Texans their 389 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 2: question marks on offense. Are they getting better? Are they not? 390 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 2: But it's like the NFC people have said for a 391 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 2: majority part of the year, like, hey, the Packers seem 392 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 2: like the most put together team, and they took that 393 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 2: team and plaid to play against their offense their strengths 394 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:48,719 Speaker 2: and go and win that game the way they did. 395 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,640 Speaker 2: It's like, Yo, it's the Broncos And if bo Nix 396 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 2: can continue to do what he does, he's got everything 397 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 2: around him to be successful. Now they sit in a 398 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 2: perfect position of they have all this talent around them 399 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 2: and a quarterback that's in his first contract where he's 400 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,439 Speaker 2: not killing a bunch of cap for you guys. So 401 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 2: there is if you're a Broncos fan, buddy, this is 402 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,640 Speaker 2: like we have to you have to get it now. 403 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 2: Now is when you take a hitage of all those things, 404 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 2: because in three years you're not gonna be able to 405 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 2: have Cooper Benito certain all these guys on your defense, 406 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 2: and able to have an on offensive line and you know, 407 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 2: wide receivers and running back. So I think right now 408 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:29,160 Speaker 2: it is the Broncos, and I think that's probably who 409 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:30,959 Speaker 2: looks like they're coming out of the playoffs then when 410 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 2: we get to the playoffs, we'll see how bo Nix 411 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 2: handles the weather. That we talked about run game defense, 412 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 2: it seems like they can they can handle that. Josh 413 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 2: Allen seems like he's gonna have the easiest path he's 414 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 2: ever had with Patrick Mahomes now being out Lamar Jackson. 415 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 2: He's on the fringe with the Ravens. It's going to 416 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 2: be very interesting to see what takes place in the AFC. 417 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:50,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, because they could get that one seed and then 418 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,360 Speaker 1: everybody's traveling to the altitude to Denver. 419 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 2: Right in that cold weather, all that stuff, and it's 420 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 2: Denver is an extremely hard place to play. Well, we 421 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 2: all are very aware of that. I want to I 422 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 2: want to talk about the Bengals with you for a 423 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 2: second because before this game where I think they got 424 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 2: shut out, correct it was twenty four to zero. Twenty 425 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 2: to zero, Yeah, they got shut out. Yeah, before this game. 426 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow, he's in a press conference. He goes, I 427 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 2: want to play the game. That's fun for me. I'm not. 428 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 2: He basically alludes like I'm not having fun. He's having 429 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 2: a lot of comments that reflect us looking back on 430 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 2: Andrew Luck and being like yo, how are we going 431 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 2: to have a sim situation where this guy generational talent 432 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 2: which is thrown around all over the place, but truly, 433 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow is a generational talent. Does he want to 434 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 2: trade his when he retire? What he want to do? 435 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 2: Goes into this game, gets goose ech those multiple interceptions, 436 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 2: and he got Jamar Chase in the postgame press conference 437 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 2: saying I've never had to uplift Joe Burrow in my life. 438 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 2: It seems like that's where I kind of have to go. 439 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 2: Now He's done that for me, so I need to 440 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 2: do that for him. Because Joe Burrow has this crazy 441 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 2: body language about him. This is more of an open discussion. 442 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 2: I want to put you just like, hey, Greg, what 443 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 2: would you do? But like, where do we feel like 444 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow's at right now? As far as his career. 445 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: I don't think he wants to be done playing. There's 446 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 1: got to be something going on off the field in 447 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,199 Speaker 1: my opinion, based on just a little clues or nuggets 448 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 1: because he alluded to I want to say. A reporter 449 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: asked him when he said he wasn't having fun and 450 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: whatever else, and the guy in the audience was like, 451 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 1: is there it football stuff. Is it personal stuff? He's like, 452 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 1: you know, a little bit of everything. And then for 453 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase to he also said a personal I'm not 454 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,959 Speaker 1: going to say eluded, but he brought up the word personal, 455 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: like when he said, I've never been in the spots 456 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: where I've had to uplift Joe Burrow. I don't know 457 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: what's going on personally, blah blah blah, but I feel 458 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: like I'm gonna be there for him the same way 459 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: He's been there for me. There could be something going 460 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 1: on and nobody knows about. Yeah, I don't think he 461 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 1: wants to be done playing football. I think he just 462 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: wants to be on a winning football team, you know 463 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 1: what I mean? 464 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think it's a lot of that. 465 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 3: And again, we never know. It's it's so easy to 466 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 3: judge these guys and say, oh man, how good do 467 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 3: they have it? You don't know what's going on behind 468 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 3: the scenes. I think that's all real guys are still 469 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 3: living lives outside of the world of professional football, and 470 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 3: it certainly takes a toll. But my I guess without 471 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 3: having any real intimate knowledge into the situation, my experience 472 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 3: of just being around guys and hearing the way they 473 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 3: talk and whatnot. This feels to me like a guy 474 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 3: who's saying, I know I'm really good. I didn't play 475 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 3: good yesterday. I think he was very honest about his 476 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 3: assessment yesterday, and that's okay. It felt like an outlier, 477 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 3: felt like kind of a one off game. But I 478 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 3: sense a guy that is tired of losing, right, I'm 479 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 3: tired of scoring thirty plus points and losing. Everybody else 480 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 3: around the league scores twenty and they win twenty five, 481 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 3: they win thirty, and it's a foregone conclusion. You win. 482 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 3: How Come I'm on this team that over the last 483 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,679 Speaker 3: two years, I've scored thirty four points six times in 484 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 3: a loss. That's not fun. It does people like, oh, 485 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 3: but you're making so much money. You're making this we 486 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 3: all know, like the money and all that after you 487 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 3: signed that contract and that rush is gone. The football 488 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 3: is still what matters. Coming into a locker room of 489 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 3: a winner is very different coming into the locker room 490 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 3: of a winner of a loser, regardless of how much 491 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 3: money you make. And I think these last couple of years, really, 492 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 3: since the Super Bowl, it's been a steady decrease, especially 493 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 3: on the defensive side of the ball. They can't get 494 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 3: that right. They're firing coaches. Hendrickson's not playing. He's their 495 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 3: best player, Like they're not good on defense. He feels 496 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 3: like he carries the entire weight of the organization, which 497 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 3: he does on his back offensively and quarterback. And obviously 498 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 3: he's been through some injuries and he's battling and he's rehabbing, 499 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 3: and he's rushing back to a four and eight team, 500 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 3: trying to claw his way back into the playoffs. Every 501 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 3: single season they're in the same boat. They're four and eight, 502 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 3: they're three and seven, and it's like, hey, win every game. 503 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 3: Well he did it last year. They won every game 504 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,359 Speaker 3: down the stretch. They don't make the playoffs. He comes back, 505 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 3: he gets him to four and eight. It's got to 506 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 3: win every game. He loses a heartbreaker to Josh Allen 507 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 3: to get shut out, and now the season's over. I 508 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 3: think he's mentally worn out. I feel like he's a 509 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 3: guy that's saying, I'm in the prime of my career 510 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 3: when I'm healthy, I'm arguably the best quarterback in the league, 511 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 3: and I'm tired of losing. And I don't blame him. 512 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's it's like too being a part of 513 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: a tough organization or a bad culture, like going into work, 514 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,120 Speaker 1: Like anybody who goes into work and like, let's say 515 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,120 Speaker 1: you have a bad day or you have a bad week, right, 516 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 1: you have a bad moment. If you've got a lot 517 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,640 Speaker 1: of good people around you and you're around a good 518 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 1: organization with a good culture, you'll get out of that 519 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 1: pretty quick. Like we've been in locker rooms to where 520 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 1: you're winning football team, you have a bad day or 521 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 1: you have a bad game, and just to feel when 522 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: you go in the locker room or going to the 523 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: building the next day, it's it's completely different than when 524 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 1: you have a bad day or have a bad game 525 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: and you lose and you go into a locker room 526 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: where it's just it's quiet, like everybody knows there's stuff 527 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 1: going on, even the culture. When you go into the 528 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: facility of the next day, whether organizationally from the top down, 529 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: you just feel like you're in a bad situation. Having 530 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: to do that day in and day out. It absolutely 531 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 1: wears on you to the point where it's like, yeah, 532 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 1: the dude's just beat down, he's tired of being he 533 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,679 Speaker 1: does know, Like this is one of the best players 534 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,360 Speaker 1: in the NFL, and he's just been on this he's 535 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: just been on this shit team for the last year. 536 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 2: It's not even day in and day out, month and 537 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 2: a month out. This has been a year in and 538 00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 2: year round job for Joe Burrow. 539 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 1: And it's like if you. 540 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 2: Go into multiple off seasons and the issues that you've 541 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 2: had have not been addressed. And I know I know 542 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 2: the issues that they have. We've all talked about. We 543 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 2: talked about it earlier with the Broncos, Like Broncos are 544 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 2: in a great spot because they have all the pieces 545 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 2: and a quarterback in the first in his first contract. 546 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 2: Now you have Joe burwho's making half a billion dollars 547 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 2: or whatever his contract is, and it's like every year 548 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 2: it's like, Okay, their defense sucks and their offensive line 549 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 2: gives up sex and every year we're having the same conversation. 550 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 2: Now we're here three years later saying twenty twenty five, 551 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 2: it's December, the defense sucks and the offensive line gives 552 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 2: up sacks. So if I'm Joe Burrow, yeah, I'm pretty 553 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 2: fed up with the situation and just wondering, like, like, 554 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 2: if it's not gonna get fixed in three years, maybe 555 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 2: I need to go somewhere else where it is fixed. 556 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 2: But the argument can also be made is it's not 557 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 2: I was good. On the other side, no other team 558 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 2: has t Higgins and Jamar Chase and that Tindan was 559 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 2: it giseki is how you say it? Like those type 560 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:56,920 Speaker 2: of weapons, they're just they grow on trees, like maybe 561 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 2: the Vikings. You can find yourself in that Si Stafford's Stafford, 562 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 2: those rams, Like those pastures are greener, those pastors are 563 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 2: pretty damn green those But it's like that has to 564 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 2: be the fit. Like if it's like Doe Burrow's going 565 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 2: to go to the Raiders or he's going to go 566 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 2: to the Jets, or he's going a Steelers, He's like, no, bro, 567 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 2: Like you're not going to be happier there because you're 568 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 2: not going to have the weapons that you have that 569 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,199 Speaker 2: are even comparable anywhere else other than probably two teams. 570 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: Joe smart enough, he would know he's end up with 571 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: the Raiders or the Jets. 572 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 3: Well, you know, brings up the question everybody always asks, 573 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 3: and I'm not sure there's a clear cut answer. You know, 574 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 3: they're paying fifty plus million, it might maybe more than that. 575 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 3: Off the top of my head how much they're paying 576 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 3: to t Higgins and Jamar Chase. Right, So you're paying 577 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,719 Speaker 3: all that money there, would you rather have a fifty 578 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 3: million dollar offensive line or fifty million dollar wide receivers? 579 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 3: It's a tough I can make an argument each way, Right, 580 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 3: what kind of system am I running? What's the you know, 581 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 3: where's the load? Where's the stress? So I think there's 582 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 3: a lot of nuance to it, but I think it's 583 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,120 Speaker 3: a fair question. And you look at what they're doing 584 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 3: with the Rams. Yeah, oh Pooking Akua, the pat Pooking 585 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 3: a coup is a fifth round pick making no money. 586 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,400 Speaker 3: DeVante Adams is on is a veteran who last year 587 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 3: couldn't do a thing in Jets. Not because he's not amazing. 588 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 3: He's incredible. It's a better fit, but he's not making 589 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 3: thirty five million dollars. He's not making tough to your 590 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 3: wide receiver money. So you can't pay everyone, right, and 591 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 3: the second you start paying a quarterback sixty and a 592 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 3: wide receiver thirty and better draft incredible it's and we 593 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 3: see it time and time again. There's great rosters with 594 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,919 Speaker 3: good young quarterbacks making no money. They're highly competitive and 595 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 3: then there's the couple quarterbacks that can mask the problems 596 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,360 Speaker 3: of a bad roster. But even they can't do it anymore, 597 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,120 Speaker 3: even Mahomes and Josh Allen and Burrow. I mean, these 598 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 3: guys are as good as it gets, and the roster 599 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 3: holes right now. Of the group, the only one that's 600 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 3: still holding on is Josh Allen. Yeah, and he's doing 601 00:26:54,800 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 3: it without literally without a receiver. Right. It's a great 602 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 3: after catch and right. Yeah, but I'm talking about traditional 603 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 3: compared to Justin Jefferson, who can I'm talking like a 604 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 3: traditional x Z receiver. It's this, it's a really hard 605 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 3: balance with how much money certain guys take and if 606 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 3: you're gonna allocate a certain amount of percentage, such a 607 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 3: high percentage of your cap to certain players, which of 608 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 3: course you have to, they have to be able to hold. 609 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 3: They better be able to fill the holes that are 610 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 3: inevitably gonna come, and you better draft incredibly well around them. 611 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, now, playing now that we have more information, playing hindsight, 612 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 1: armchair quarterback, it's one thousand percent. You want a fifty 613 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 1: million dollars line when you got a quarterback like Joe Burrow. 614 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, but if you have a fifty million dollar O line. 615 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 3: He's not throwing at Jamar Chasen t exactly. 616 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I'm thinking Joe Burrow is so good. Like, yeah, 617 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase and T Higgins they're they're animals. But I'm 618 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 1: thinking you got to you gotta keep be like Joey 619 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: b Like again, you see it with Josh Allen. He 620 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 1: doesn't have a whole lot of wide receivers to work with, 621 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: and he, you know, he's out there making it happen. 622 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: You can make a you know, an average wide receiver 623 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 1: look good. You can make a good wide receiver look great. 624 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: You can go out there and grab you know, if 625 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: you fortunately could draft like a Pooka Nakou in the 626 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 1: fifth round. Obviously I'm talking on my ass saying that. 627 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:16,679 Speaker 1: But if you do draft well and then you go 628 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,439 Speaker 1: out and have find somebody a receiver that's got a 629 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 1: higher ceiling than what he showed the previous year with 630 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: Devonte Adams when he was with the Jets, you'd be 631 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: able to. You'd be able to, you'd be able to 632 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,199 Speaker 1: figure it out. I believe in free agency, if you 633 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: had a foundational piece of the offensive line protecting your 634 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: best asset on the team, the. 635 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 2: Thing that I'm thinking of right now is the viewer 636 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 2: watching the show who is working their ass off, working 637 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 2: paycheck to paycheck, and not just saying to us three 638 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 2: guys who play in the NFL, Well, if Joe Burrow 639 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 2: wants this so bad, why wouldn't he take less money? 640 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's. 641 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 2: What you got sixty? 642 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: Hey, I thought you follow follow up. 643 00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 2: That's what I'm like. People who don't play in the NFL. 644 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 2: People who don't like understand like, hey, it's not for long, 645 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 2: this doesn't last forever. You want to accumulate as much 646 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 2: wealth as you possibly can for generational stuff. They're sitting 647 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,239 Speaker 2: there and theyre saying, well, the answer seems like it's 648 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 2: pretty simple to me. Take less money so you can 649 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 2: get a better offensive line and a defense. 650 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: Fair. 651 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 3: Well, So there's two there's two arguments, one on each side, 652 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 3: like normal, Right, you make the one argument that, yeah, 653 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 3: instead of making sixty, can you make fifty? Is your 654 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 3: life really going to be different? 655 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 1: Right? 656 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 3: That's a valid argument. You can spread that ten million 657 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 3: around your roster, and you do that over multiple years, 658 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 3: and all of a sudden you have a better team. 659 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 3: That's fair. Right. Brady did that a lot and been 660 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 3: heavily talked about. There's also the side that those top 661 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 3: tier guys, there is an obligation that it's your job 662 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 3: to raise the ceiling. Right, it's your job because once 663 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow, I'm just gonna make up that he's you know, 664 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 3: let's say he's the highest paid quarterback. Well, when it's 665 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 3: Jordan loves turn, or it's Drake May's turn, right, these 666 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 3: next young guys, when it's Drake May's turn, If Drake 667 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 3: May doesn't jump, whoever the highest paid guy now is. 668 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 3: You never reset the market. And you're not only resetting 669 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 3: the market for the top guy. As the top quarterback 670 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 3: makes sixty, the second tier now makes thirty five. If 671 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 3: the top quarterback's only making fifty, the middle tier is 672 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 3: only making twenty five. So you're bringing everybody up with 673 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 3: you when you continually reset the market. So the other 674 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 3: to the counter, and this is what every agent in 675 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 3: the world of course is selling his client. You owe 676 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 3: it to the league, You owe it to the other 677 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 3: quarterbacks to elevate the market and to reset it if 678 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 3: you have the ability to reset it. So there's a 679 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 3: very double edged sword there, right, like, do you owe 680 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 3: it to the league, do you owe it to the 681 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 3: market and of course yourself or is your obligation to 682 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 3: balancing the books on behalf of your front office and 683 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 3: doing their job for them, right, because the Eagles certainly 684 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 3: don't have a talent problem, right. And the Eagles are 685 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 3: paying aj Brown and they're Lane Johnson, and they're paying 686 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 3: my Alotta, and they're paying Jalen Hurts and they're paying 687 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 3: Saquon Barkley. And I mean, but why can't you pay 688 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 3: all them because you drafted Jalen Carter, and you drafted 689 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 3: Jordan Davis, and you signed Zach Bond. I know they've 690 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 3: given him an extension since, but he's not a top 691 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 3: tier they sign him in a one year veteran deal 692 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 3: two years ago, or last year, you draft Cooper Dejen 693 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 3: you got, you draft Quinon Mitchell. 694 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 1: Like yeah, Nikobe Dean, Yeah yeah. 695 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 3: N Kobe Dean. And we can go on and on 696 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 3: and on about the guys that they've drafted who make 697 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 3: no relatively, they don't make big money in the scope 698 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 3: scope of the NFL. That's how you keep that roster 699 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 3: looking the way it does. If they miss on all 700 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 3: those picks, and those guys stink and they now need 701 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 3: to go out and free agency and fill those gaps. 702 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 3: You only get a j Brown or DeVante Smith. You 703 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 3: either get Lane Johnson or Jordan Mylotta. You don't get 704 00:31:56,040 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 3: Saquon And it has a Yeah, it's just the nature 705 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 3: the game. So like the argument the quarterback would be 706 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 3: draft better. 707 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, because the meat you do, you know, balance 708 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: the books of the organization. You now give power to 709 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 1: the owners. Like when you're in this battle of player 710 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 1: versus ownership and getting paid what the market says, you 711 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 1: now give owners leverage too. Now they're they're saying that 712 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: with all the other deals they're trying to sign with 713 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: their quarterbacks that they're trying to keep, it's like, well, 714 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 1: the Bengals over here, Joe Burrow did this, like we 715 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 1: need you to kind of be a selfless person here, right, 716 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 1: take less money so that way we can make a 717 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 1: better roster. 718 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 2: Yep, yep. 719 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 3: And then the left tackle wants to negotiate a new deal, 720 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 3: and they go, well, Joe Burrow just took a hometown discount, 721 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 3: so if he can do it, why don't you. 722 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 2: Right now the negotiating, the leverage goes towards the team, right. 723 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's just so many there's just so many layers 724 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 3: to it. It sounds so easy, you know, and I 725 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 3: save you ten million a year. Is there a guarantee 726 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 3: that you're not going to blow that? Yeah, you give 727 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 3: it to some guy who stinks you're better off giving 728 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 3: it to me. 729 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 1: Right right, I'm approving. 730 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, So there's a lot of there's a lot of 731 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 3: nuance to a lot of those things. But yeah, i'm 732 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 3: the surface. Not being the highest paid player certainly helps 733 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 3: keep your team better in theory, but now there's an 734 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 3: execution component. 735 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 2: It makes me think about Kirk Cousins and what he 736 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 2: was trying to start when he left Washington, which is 737 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 2: do you take less money but it's all fully guaranteed. 738 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 2: And now you're starting to work through the process again 739 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 2: of hey, you know when you sign these ninety million 740 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 2: dollar deals in sixty if it's guaranteed, well, willia's just 741 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 2: a sixty million dollar deal and you're hoping to get 742 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 2: the other thirty Like why not? Like maybe that's the 743 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 2: process now where these top tier quarterbacks you're taking five, 744 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 2: ten million less dollars, but thirty more is guaranteed on 745 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 2: the back end, Like that's a win. Yeah, possibly for 746 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 2: everybody there now there's a new fight taking place where 747 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 2: these fully guaranteed contracts are happening, which you know depends 748 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 2: on what side of the fence you sit on when 749 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 2: it comes to that stuff. 750 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was always the approach that I took. Right Like, again, 751 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 3: this is a fun kind of higher level like approach 752 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 3: standpoint that I think is interesting to dive into. But 753 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 3: like me personally, my approach was always it didn't matter 754 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 3: to me that I was ever the highest paid, the 755 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 3: third highest paid, the fifth highest paid, the tent that 756 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 3: never really mattered to me, right Like, I always took 757 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 3: extensions in advance just because I knew I played a 758 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 3: position where at any moment it could be done. Yeah, 759 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 3: but then I also always bet on myself and saying 760 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 3: I might sign on an annual basis a less contract 761 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 3: than a guy that I might feel like I'm better then, 762 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,800 Speaker 3: But because I took an extension, I didn't make free agency. 763 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 3: He's going to make more on an annualized basis. But 764 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:34,479 Speaker 3: I'm gonna make the entire contract, right like I'm gonna 765 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 3: play the entire I'm gonna get the max value of 766 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 3: that contract, which might be a little bit less over 767 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,719 Speaker 3: fixed number of years. I'm gonna make it all you. 768 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 3: I make five million and you make seven. But you 769 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 3: only made two years of it, and then you got hurt, 770 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 3: you stopped training, you got cut. You weren't as good 771 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 3: as me. But I made it for five years. Who 772 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:52,840 Speaker 3: signed the better contract? 773 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: You did? 774 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 3: I signed the better contract because you got two of 775 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 3: the five years at seven, so you made fourteen. I 776 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 3: got five of the for twenty five. I did better 777 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 3: than you. That was always personally my approach, where I 778 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 3: didn't need to make the most per year. I was 779 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 3: gonna make every single year of it for fourteen years 780 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 3: and just play the long game. That was always my approach. 781 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, when I was sitting in the position to have 782 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 2: make get a second contract, I was sat down by 783 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 2: Tom Condon and Pat Collins at CAA and they're like, hey, 784 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 2: everyone's looking at Apy like everyone wants to know your 785 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 2: average pay per year.

And it's when they were 788 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 2: able to break that down for me because I was 789 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 2: a little more great.

You know, everybody's waking up this 882 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 1: morning in New England just feeling like dog shit. 883 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 2: Dog shit. But that's also we talked about when you 884 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 2: walk into a locker room with a team that's like, 885 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 2: you know, there's a bunch of issues. If you're the Patriots, 886 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 2: you're coming off of bye Mike Rabel up until yesterday 887 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 2: was undefeated off of a bye week. They lose this game, 888 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,239 Speaker 2: I'm sure there's a level of like, oh no, no, no, no, no, 889 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 2: we messed it up. We were up twenty one zero, 890 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 2: twenty four to seven. We should have put that game 891 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 2: away in the second half and we got lazy and 892 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,880 Speaker 2: there's a new fire that's taking place in a province. 893 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was probably the best thing to happen to 894 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,840 Speaker 1: the Patriots, no doubt, dude. 895 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 3: So I got a question though, for Will When when 896 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 3: did the momentum of that game switch. 897 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 1: Right out of the second half? Yeah, right out of 898 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: the second half when they kickoff back and it's like 899 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 1: they win that. 900 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 3: Explain that to me. How you are You're up twenty 901 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 3: one and you have all the momentum and then you lose. 902 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 3: I don't get it. 903 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:04,360 Speaker 1: God, handle yourself, bro, there's nothing. Gregg's right, No, he's not. 904 00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:08,280 Speaker 1: And tell them what you're talking about. When the Buffalo 905 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:08,799 Speaker 1: Bills came. 906 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,480 Speaker 2: Out coming out of halftime, yah, coming out half after 907 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 2: adjustments were made, understanding that the momentum is on the patriotside, 908 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 2: we need to string plays together. 909 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 1: Rallying light fire. Hey, we're going to come off, so we're. 910 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:20,319 Speaker 2: Getting this ball. 911 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 3: We're getting this ball. 912 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no. The game plan we walked in with 913 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 2: is clearly not the game plan we needed to win. 914 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,920 Speaker 2: We've seen the plays. This is how we make our adjustments. 915 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,879 Speaker 2: They're also making adjustments. The good thing about being down 916 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 2: at halftime is you understand your game plan needs to 917 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 2: change when you're up by as much as the Patriots are, 918 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:38,279 Speaker 2: they're not looking with a critical eye, being like we 919 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:39,840 Speaker 2: need to change X, Y and Z because everything they 920 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:44,480 Speaker 2: have is working. Bills made changes. Momentum is a series 921 00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 2: by serious case by case. You can break down all 922 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:47,919 Speaker 2: of it. 923 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:49,759 Speaker 1: It's like a fighter. When the bell rings, you make 924 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 1: it to the end of the round, you can recreate 925 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:52,760 Speaker 1: some momentum in that corner. 926 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 3: Right sounds and to me, it sounds like you guys 927 00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 3: are talking execution, right game plan and plays and the ability. 928 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:06,239 Speaker 3: That's what it sounds like to me, not emotion and 929 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:09,399 Speaker 3: vibes and feel That's what I'm hearing. Am I wrong? 930 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,359 Speaker 2: You are? You are absolutely right, and you'll know this. 931 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 2: It all goes completely hand in hand. When you have 932 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:17,840 Speaker 2: a game plan and you execute that game plan, that 933 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 2: momentum rises, and so do the vibes. Believe starts to 934 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,279 Speaker 2: take place. When you're getting that asked bet by three 935 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:27,240 Speaker 2: touchdowns and you've got people tweeting the Patriots week schedule, 936 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 2: the haters are sick right now type of stuff. You 937 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 2: you feel a little more confident now the bills coming 938 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 2: like sh okay, it really is just a two score game. 939 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:37,960 Speaker 2: Then they go three and out. Now you're feeling momentum built. Hey, 940 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:39,879 Speaker 2: they're not as good as we think they are. 941 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:43,400 Speaker 1: We're all making No I'm trolling. 942 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:44,400 Speaker 3: Can I ask one more questions? 943 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:44,720 Speaker 1: Ahead? 944 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 3: Sorry? 945 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 1: Go ahead? 946 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:46,520 Speaker 3: Well no, go ahead? Well, sorry, go ahead. 947 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:48,840 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, when greg'sitting there talking about feeling 948 00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 1: vibes emotion, that's what I always feeling when I put 949 00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 1: that tweet out, And I didn't see it flipping on 950 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:57,359 Speaker 1: me like that whatsoever. I truly did. It's not like 951 00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:00,759 Speaker 1: I'm with you. There's been so much what you treat. 952 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 1: So it went twenty one to nothing. 953 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 3: And as you said, I didn't see it. 954 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:08,879 Speaker 2: I said, I here, Uh this is this is twenty 955 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 2: one hours ago. So we are right around the right 956 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 2: about halftime the Patriots quote week's schedule. Haters are sick 957 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 2: watching this ass beating on the Buffalo Bills. 958 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, and then they turn it around come back. I 959 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 1: end up having to make a thread of a posting 960 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:29,320 Speaker 1: the Simba running from the stampede as the Buffalo Bills 961 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 1: were coming back and momentums everything. Yeah. 962 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,360 Speaker 3: Hey, Can I ask another question though? And I'm genuinely. 963 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 3: This is a genuine question. So the Thursday night game, 964 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 3: Atlanta's down fourteen, they score, they go for two. They fail. Yeah, 965 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 3: they get the interception, they get the ball, they go 966 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:54,759 Speaker 3: back down and score again. So they've scored back to 967 00:43:54,840 --> 00:44:01,439 Speaker 3: back touchdowns. Had all the momentum failed the second point 968 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:03,600 Speaker 3: after try. I was told the second point after try, 969 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 3: especially after scoring two touchdowns, everyone's feeling so much better, 970 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:11,040 Speaker 3: you're more likely to get it. Obviously didn't happen. They 971 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:15,719 Speaker 3: missed them both. The fifteen conversation after the Philly game, 972 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:18,839 Speaker 3: I was told that you should go for two after 973 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 3: the second touchdown because after scoring two touchdowns in a row, 974 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:24,320 Speaker 3: you've got all the momentum, you're more likely to convert. 975 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,719 Speaker 3: The two point. Didn't happen. I was also told that 976 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:30,040 Speaker 3: after not tying the game like they would have without 977 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:32,239 Speaker 3: with the two kicks, they would have tied the game, 978 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 3: the defense was not going to play as motivated and 979 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 3: was not going to be as the urgency was not 980 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 3: going to be there because instead of being tied on losing, 981 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 3: they went out, got the ball right back, and they 982 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:46,719 Speaker 3: went down to kick the field goal. So I guess 983 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 3: I'm just trying to understand why they kept playing hard 984 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 3: despite not tying the game, despite having all the momentum. 985 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 3: They failed the two point try. I'm just trying to 986 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 3: keep try. When the emotions mattered, when the execution mattered, 987 00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 3: when the vibes were good bad, It's hard for me 988 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 3: to keep track of it. 989 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 1: Here's what I'll say, Greg, you won this week, you 990 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: won this battle. The war continues. There will be situations 991 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 1: now or we'll be right back here and I'll get 992 00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:23,319 Speaker 1: to do the same type of trolling you're doing to 993 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:26,120 Speaker 1: me right now. I will win this week. I win 994 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:26,640 Speaker 1: this week. 995 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 3: The outcome no, no, no, See here's the difference. I'm 996 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,720 Speaker 3: not saying that I'm right because they won the game. 997 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:36,280 Speaker 3: I'm laying in bed and like you, I'm getting fired 998 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:39,879 Speaker 3: on Twitter because people like, where's Olsen now going for two? 999 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:43,479 Speaker 3: They're gonna lose, and I'm sitting there like I would 1000 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:46,919 Speaker 3: still go for two down fourteen. They didn't and they're 1001 00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 3: probably gonna lose. And this definitely is on the other 1002 00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 3: camp side, anecdotally seat because again we want to judge 1003 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:59,640 Speaker 3: the result instead of what's actually happened. Here's the reality 1004 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 3: of all this. If you're down fourteen fifteen thirteen. Any 1005 00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 3: you're probably gonna lose more times than not anyway, so yes, 1006 00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:11,440 Speaker 3: more chances than not you're gonna lose the game. And 1007 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:14,959 Speaker 3: then you guys see, it was a stupid decision. Being 1008 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,720 Speaker 3: down fourteen is not a great strategy. Being down fifteen 1009 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 3: is not a great strategy. They happened to win the game. 1010 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 3: And that's my entire point, the mote to put to 1011 00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:28,200 Speaker 3: say that teams are trying less hard more hard. I 1012 00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:31,240 Speaker 3: scored two touchdowns, so I'm gonna get the two versus 1013 00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 3: my first touchdown. The defense is no longer tired. But 1014 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,760 Speaker 3: I thought they were so tired. They're on their heels, 1015 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,880 Speaker 3: they're reelings their sucking wind. We talk all these cliches. 1016 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:45,160 Speaker 3: All I'm simply saying is I'm not debating that we 1017 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:47,920 Speaker 3: all haven't felt these things. We all do as humans. 1018 00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:49,479 Speaker 3: I'm just saying they don't matter. 1019 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:54,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, gosh, can I just say, Greg, having you on 1020 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,520 Speaker 2: the show, that was a masterclass, That was a master class. 1021 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 2: Any vondas at the end of it too, I don't 1022 00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 2: know what that means. Vince fun Vince FONND wedding crashers 1023 00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:04,719 Speaker 2: are they're sucking win, They're not sucking win the defensive sign, 1024 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:06,239 Speaker 2: but are they really tired? Now we're sitting here and 1025 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 2: we're thinking, is everybody actually just tired? And it's actually 1026 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:09,719 Speaker 2: a sequelized. 1027 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 1: He got me to say he won, but he's like, 1028 00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:13,920 Speaker 1: that's that, that doesn't even matter. He got me focused 1029 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:16,479 Speaker 1: on something else. No, No, I'm not even talking about that. Yeah, 1030 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:18,319 Speaker 1: and then goes on and you know, finishes it off 1031 00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,400 Speaker 1: by putting me at your and buckling me in right. 1032 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:21,480 Speaker 2: And give you a little kiss on the cheek. 1033 00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:26,600 Speaker 1: You want some snatch it again? Hey, hey, you did it, 1034 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 1: and you did a great job of it. 1035 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:31,800 Speaker 2: And I will say, like what I was going to 1036 00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 2: say before we jumped into all that was is having 1037 00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 2: you on Mondays has like changed the way I've watched 1038 00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:40,200 Speaker 2: end of games to where I'm I'm leaning on the 1039 00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:43,520 Speaker 2: side of Olsen camp, Like, hey, does motivate, does motivation, momentum? 1040 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,759 Speaker 2: All these things doesn't really matter. When it's like you're 1041 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:47,840 Speaker 2: down by fourteen, you score a touchdown, you go for 1042 00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,479 Speaker 2: two because you're much more likely to get fifty percent 1043 00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:52,239 Speaker 2: than one hundred percent, so you might as well try 1044 00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:55,800 Speaker 2: to go for it once. Question of the game, right thirty, 1045 00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:58,399 Speaker 2: we're talking about the Buffalo Bills and the Patriots. It's 1046 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 2: thirty five thirty one. Literally took a photo of this 1047 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 2: and I was like, I gotta ask what he would 1048 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:02,720 Speaker 2: do in the situation. 1049 00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:04,879 Speaker 3: Wait, catch that game, so. 1050 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 2: You know what pisses me off to and we got 1051 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:08,719 Speaker 2: to figure this out. I don't have your number. I've 1052 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:10,320 Speaker 2: multiple times have been like, great. 1053 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:12,400 Speaker 1: Need to be Hey, we'll get it. Let's get a 1054 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 1: group going. 1055 00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 2: And I've honestly won asket but a place's embarss. So 1056 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:16,799 Speaker 2: we've gone this wrong. 1057 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,720 Speaker 3: I bench press last week. Boys woke up very sore, 1058 00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:22,360 Speaker 3: no shit for reps. 1059 00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:23,320 Speaker 2: No hoo many. 1060 00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:25,760 Speaker 3: Not enough. 1061 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,880 Speaker 2: Brother may as that I've worked out three times. Okay, 1062 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:34,200 Speaker 2: thirty five thirty one. Now the Patriots, this is the 1063 00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,239 Speaker 2: Bills are now beating the Patriots. So the Patriots are 1064 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 2: up at one point momentum, the whole thing we're still 1065 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:40,000 Speaker 2: talking about. 1066 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:40,640 Speaker 3: That got it. 1067 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 2: It's thirty five thirty one. The Patriots are on let's 1068 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,160 Speaker 2: say the thirty yard line, the Bills thirty yard line. 1069 00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 2: So if they don't get a first down here, it's 1070 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 2: essentially the game is over. There's five minutes and nineteen 1071 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:55,279 Speaker 2: seconds left. It's fourth and twelve. Are you going to 1072 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,440 Speaker 2: go for it in this situation and define the game? 1073 00:48:57,520 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 2: Or is that way out of hand? 1074 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:01,840 Speaker 3: At this point, you're the plus, you're on the plus thirty. 1075 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:05,120 Speaker 2: You're in a tree, You're you're on the minus side. 1076 00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 2: So the Patriots if they turned the ball over, yeah, 1077 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:10,759 Speaker 2: If the Patriots turn the ball over, god, yeah. 1078 00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 3: So they turned it over on downs on the minus 1079 00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 3: thirty down four, right, they went for fourth and twelve 1080 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 3: and failed. 1081 00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:18,520 Speaker 2: They did not go for it. They ended up punting 1082 00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:20,319 Speaker 2: it away and while and when they're punting it away, 1083 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 2: I'm thinking, Okay, the Bills at this point and this 1084 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:26,759 Speaker 2: half have scored so much over you and. 1085 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:28,600 Speaker 3: Have come and what did the Bills do when they 1086 00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 3: got The Bills. 1087 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:32,279 Speaker 2: End up going They end up not scoring, and the 1088 00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:34,879 Speaker 2: Patriots get get the ball again. They get the ball again, 1089 00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 2: they have a two minute, they fail, they end up 1090 00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:37,759 Speaker 2: losing the game. Anyway, I think the result of the 1091 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:40,239 Speaker 2: game was the same score, thirty five thirty one. I 1092 00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:41,000 Speaker 2: have to look at it. 1093 00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 3: So was this I'm trying to put Yeah, so this 1094 00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 3: was the punt. So they punted fourth and twenty trioits 1095 00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 3: punted fourth and twelve. 1096 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:54,440 Speaker 2: I think they're on like the thirty yard line, but 1097 00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:58,640 Speaker 2: they're not going in. They're coming out right, soah, fourth 1098 00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:02,000 Speaker 2: and twelve at the twenty five and it's five to 1099 00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:06,279 Speaker 2: nineteen left the Bills of nineteen. The Bills have scored like, 1100 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 2: you know, thirty five to or whatever, twenty eight to 1101 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:13,600 Speaker 2: three in the second half. So you're saying, by punting 1102 00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:17,719 Speaker 2: this ball away, we're I think they're taking a knee 1103 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:19,840 Speaker 2: based on your logic, because they're gonna go down and 1104 00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:22,359 Speaker 2: score again, or they're gonna be able to keep kind 1105 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:23,880 Speaker 2: of doing what they've been doing to you with the 1106 00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:24,319 Speaker 2: score this. 1107 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:26,840 Speaker 3: High, or at the very least, they don't score, but 1108 00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 3: they just get you under the two minute warning. They 1109 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 3: bleed you out the run game. So by being only 1110 00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:34,960 Speaker 3: up four there now fourth and twelve sucks. 1111 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:36,080 Speaker 2: That's a shitty one. 1112 00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:39,360 Speaker 3: It's a shitty one, right, So like that's probably the 1113 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:42,120 Speaker 3: one asterisk. I'm probably still going for it. And here's 1114 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:46,480 Speaker 3: why I'm gonna speed up you scoring on me, right, 1115 00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,000 Speaker 3: I haven't stopped you. You've got thirty five points. I 1116 00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 3: can't stop a soul. You've scored thirty five damn near unanswered. 1117 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:57,080 Speaker 3: I'm being down four. I'm not afraid I'll give my 1118 00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,839 Speaker 3: chances to go for fourth down to maintain possession. If 1119 00:50:59,880 --> 00:51:03,600 Speaker 3: I fail, you're probably gonna go run, run, run, kick 1120 00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:06,799 Speaker 3: a field goal to go up seven. So obviously I 1121 00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:08,719 Speaker 3: can't let you score a touchdown of the game's over. 1122 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:12,240 Speaker 3: But I'm saying, okay, short field, we narrow it down. 1123 00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:14,919 Speaker 3: You're trying to bleed clock. You're trying to at least 1124 00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:17,960 Speaker 3: say I gotta come away here with three points. How 1125 00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:20,120 Speaker 3: aggressive are you gonna be? Are you really gonna go 1126 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 3: for the death shot? Are you gonna be okay kicking 1127 00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:26,040 Speaker 3: a field goal? I'm probably okay taking my chances because 1128 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:28,440 Speaker 3: I can still keep it a one possession game at seven. 1129 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:33,600 Speaker 3: If I'm trailing there by six, now the math turns 1130 00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:36,160 Speaker 3: into okay, I let you score. Now it turns into 1131 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 3: a two possession game. But if I punt it back 1132 00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:41,320 Speaker 3: to you and you bleed too much clock and still 1133 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:44,279 Speaker 3: kick a field goal, now I really don't have a chance. 1134 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:49,600 Speaker 3: So all those situations, my brain says, you gotta maintain possession. 1135 00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:52,680 Speaker 3: Even if you give New England the ball on the 1136 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:55,160 Speaker 3: short field, then you've got to hold them to a 1137 00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:58,040 Speaker 3: field goals, maintown seven and give the ball back to Drake. 1138 00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:01,400 Speaker 3: May you punt it away? Did they go three and 1139 00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 3: out and get the ball right back? 1140 00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:04,120 Speaker 2: I don't know if it was three and out, but 1141 00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 2: they had the ball I think either right before. 1142 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:10,120 Speaker 3: They got they. 1143 00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:10,680 Speaker 1: Got the ball back. 1144 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:11,640 Speaker 2: But okay, does it? 1145 00:52:11,719 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 1: Does it? 1146 00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:13,759 Speaker 2: I didn't. I didn't mention this would be unfair to 1147 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:15,520 Speaker 2: you to not bring it up. They have Patriots have 1148 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:17,719 Speaker 2: all their time out, all their time outs, have all 1149 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:20,880 Speaker 2: their timeouts rabels. Yeah, so they have all their timeouts. 1150 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:24,200 Speaker 2: It's fourth and twelve. You're backed up on like your 1151 00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:24,839 Speaker 2: twenty five. 1152 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:29,560 Speaker 3: You're not giving the ball back to Josh Allen at all? 1153 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:31,440 Speaker 2: Right, you don't want to, so you want to go 1154 00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:33,239 Speaker 2: for the fourth score on me. 1155 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:35,640 Speaker 3: I'm going to do everything in my power to maintain 1156 00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:36,600 Speaker 3: possession of the ball. 1157 00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:39,480 Speaker 2: Okay, let's und I know you are, but let's go 1158 00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:42,839 Speaker 2: fourth and twelve. Fourth and twelve, they don't get it. Okay, 1159 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,960 Speaker 2: So now you're the Bills. You're essentially in your red 1160 00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:48,240 Speaker 2: zone fringe area, and I hate that. I can't remember 1161 00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:50,879 Speaker 2: the exact yard line they were on. If you yeah, 1162 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,360 Speaker 2: I'm saying, do you say we're either going to be 1163 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:57,640 Speaker 2: up by four or up by eleven or is it 1164 00:52:57,760 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 2: we're going to take the three because in my mind, 1165 00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:01,200 Speaker 2: based on your law, if I'm picking up everything, is 1166 00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:03,839 Speaker 2: this is not a kick of field goal situation even 1167 00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:06,880 Speaker 2: though we're in it, because the amount of touchdowns or 1168 00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:09,239 Speaker 2: the amount of scores it takes is still the same regardless. 1169 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a great point, right. Anticipating what is the 1170 00:53:12,560 --> 00:53:15,200 Speaker 3: track record of your opponent is a huge element of 1171 00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,719 Speaker 3: how they build all these models, and I think it's 1172 00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,439 Speaker 3: a really important nuance. So when each team sets these 1173 00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:24,480 Speaker 3: scenarios up in these big books that these guys have upstairs, 1174 00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:26,360 Speaker 3: where this is all planned out what we do in 1175 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:30,799 Speaker 3: every scenario each week, the math does change a little bit. 1176 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 3: Everyone has this oh with it's just blanket mathematics that 1177 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:37,359 Speaker 3: it doesn't apply to you because your right guard is out, 1178 00:53:37,440 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 3: or your left tackle is not good, or your quarterback 1179 00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:43,200 Speaker 3: is hurt. It absolutely takes all that into account. It 1180 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:46,480 Speaker 3: takes into account the team you're playing against. If I'm 1181 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,839 Speaker 3: playing against Dan Campbell, I have to really sit down 1182 00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:51,520 Speaker 3: all week and say, Okay, he's going to really be 1183 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:53,759 Speaker 3: aggressive on fourth down, He's not going to settle for 1184 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:56,680 Speaker 3: field goals. He's going to play a certain way. How 1185 00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:59,319 Speaker 3: am I willing to alter my strategy that I don't 1186 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,960 Speaker 3: fall too far behind and I lose too many possessions. 1187 00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:05,000 Speaker 3: So a big evaluation there for Varibel has to be Okay, 1188 00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:08,480 Speaker 3: I fail here and I give the ball back to 1189 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:12,560 Speaker 3: McDermott and Joe Brady aside from them wanting to bleed 1190 00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:17,080 Speaker 3: clock make me start burning through my timeouts. If I'm McDermott, 1191 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:20,839 Speaker 3: I don't love the idea being up seven because more 1192 00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:22,879 Speaker 3: often than not, if you do go down and score, 1193 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:25,400 Speaker 3: you're probably going to go for two. Now with the 1194 00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:28,320 Speaker 3: new overtime rules, I'll be curious to see how this 1195 00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:30,840 Speaker 3: plays out over long periods of time. In the old days, 1196 00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:32,880 Speaker 3: you went for two and you just said I got 1197 00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:34,759 Speaker 3: a chance to win the game. I'm either going to 1198 00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:37,520 Speaker 3: win or lose in regulation. Now there is an argument 1199 00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:41,120 Speaker 3: with the new each team possessing the ball, maybe that 1200 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:43,719 Speaker 3: does shift the decision making. I don't think we've seen 1201 00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:46,759 Speaker 3: enough quantity of attempts for it to really flush out 1202 00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:49,800 Speaker 3: how teams handle end of regulation go for two or 1203 00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:52,879 Speaker 3: kick an extra point. But yes, if it's me, I'm 1204 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:56,000 Speaker 3: in four down mode unless it's fourth and fifteen and 1205 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:59,719 Speaker 3: I'm saying I'm scoring a touchdown at all costs to 1206 00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 3: an sence, make this a two score game, and you 1207 00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:03,400 Speaker 3: don't have enough time to have the ball twice. So 1208 00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:08,160 Speaker 3: there's a lot of my decisions and the anticipation of 1209 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:10,719 Speaker 3: what you have to do. That's a really unique situation. 1210 00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:14,520 Speaker 3: The fourth and twelve is what gives me a little pause. 1211 00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:17,080 Speaker 2: That's what when I saw the fourth and drowls are 1212 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:18,319 Speaker 2: really curious to see. 1213 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:23,920 Speaker 3: Hodds are just not great converting that. So fourth and 1214 00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:26,960 Speaker 3: seven are under I'm saying all day, I'm going to 1215 00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:29,520 Speaker 3: try to maintain possession fourth and twelve. I could probably 1216 00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:32,080 Speaker 3: make a great argument that punting might be the right move. 1217 00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:38,520 Speaker 3: Do I think McDermott's thinking four down mode? Or do 1218 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:42,440 Speaker 3: I think he feels better going from four to seven? Probably? 1219 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:44,960 Speaker 3: I think Again, we talk about this a lot. There's 1220 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:49,680 Speaker 3: a psychology there where let's say McDermott gets the ball. 1221 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:51,799 Speaker 3: This is a this is a fun kind of exercise 1222 00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:54,560 Speaker 3: because you talk about the postgame press conference. You guys 1223 00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:56,920 Speaker 3: know how I feel about that shaping a lot of decisions. 1224 00:55:57,800 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 3: Let's say that scenario plays out. They go for it, fail, 1225 00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:04,839 Speaker 3: give the ball back to Buffalo. Buffalo gets the fourth 1226 00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:09,120 Speaker 3: and four and goes for it and fails, and they 1227 00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:10,919 Speaker 3: go the length of the field and Drake May walk 1228 00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:15,440 Speaker 3: you off and they win. What's an easy what's an 1229 00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:19,759 Speaker 3: easier postgame press conference that? Or you kick a field goal, 1230 00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:23,680 Speaker 3: Drake May goes down, scores a touchdown, gets the two 1231 00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:28,000 Speaker 3: point conversion and beat you, or forces overtime and beat you. 1232 00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,280 Speaker 1: The easier on's the heart the hardest. 1233 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:33,719 Speaker 3: Those are easier. Those are easier. Hey, we got to 1234 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:36,080 Speaker 3: get better. Or two minute drive. We gave ourselves a chance. 1235 00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:38,759 Speaker 3: We competed right till the end. We came right down 1236 00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:41,799 Speaker 3: to the last play of the game. We're right there, right, 1237 00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:46,160 Speaker 3: there's this false notion that that way of losing feels better. 1238 00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:50,239 Speaker 3: Then I passed up a field goal, and now I 1239 00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 3: open myself up to just losing flat out. That's a 1240 00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 3: harder explanation for a coach to face, which is why 1241 00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,880 Speaker 3: a lot of these coaches are going to error towards 1242 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:02,759 Speaker 3: kick the field goal, go up seven, and you know what, 1243 00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:05,000 Speaker 3: if we don't win, our players need to be better. 1244 00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:07,120 Speaker 3: This is on the We got to be better on defense. 1245 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:09,040 Speaker 3: We got to be better in two minutes, right Like 1246 00:57:09,239 --> 00:57:13,600 Speaker 3: that's that's the human nature. Of all of this. So 1247 00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:17,760 Speaker 3: I think that's a great scenario because both teams theoretically 1248 00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:21,400 Speaker 3: could have had really interesting decisions based on what the 1249 00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:25,400 Speaker 3: other team did. So very good decision, very good example, Taylor. 1250 00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I appreciate that. I think, uh, but this is 1251 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:32,560 Speaker 2: also where I understand your mindset and everything when it 1252 00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 2: comes to you know, play calling and all that. But 1253 00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:38,720 Speaker 2: momentum doesn't matter. If you look at the second. 1254 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,640 Speaker 3: Half, I say it doesn't matter. I'm not saying it's you. 1255 00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:41,920 Speaker 1: I say it's not much much. 1256 00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:44,960 Speaker 2: Of a factor. But if I'm vable, and I have 1257 00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:48,840 Speaker 2: not stopped the Bills at all the entire second half, 1258 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:52,120 Speaker 2: and my only score in the second half was an 1259 00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:56,440 Speaker 2: explosive run play by Hendrick Hendrickson or Henderson Henderson thank 1260 00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:59,440 Speaker 2: you well supposed to be answering. So essentially my offense 1261 00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:02,880 Speaker 2: has been non exists in the second half. I'm based 1262 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 2: on all of our conversations that we had, I'm thinking 1263 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:06,840 Speaker 2: fourth and twelve, you got to go for it because 1264 00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:10,120 Speaker 2: regardless you would think when they I don't think everybody's 1265 00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:12,720 Speaker 2: at this new way of thinking it where they're they're 1266 00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 2: gonna run, run, run, kick the three. And now nothing's 1267 00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 2: changed about the game. It's still a one score game. 1268 00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:21,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. No, here's their second half possessions for the Patriots. 1269 00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:28,320 Speaker 3: Three plays minus six yards, seven plays, interception, one sixty 1270 00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:33,800 Speaker 3: five yard touchdown, three plays minus seven punt, four plays 1271 00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:38,440 Speaker 3: five yards downs. That was their that was their second 1272 00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:39,800 Speaker 3: half possessions. Go. 1273 00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:48,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, so that's where and here and here was Buffalo touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, 1274 00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:52,280 Speaker 4: punt Neil god. 1275 00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:55,760 Speaker 2: So that's where momentum, in my mind is is a 1276 00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:57,800 Speaker 2: huge is a big factor. It's like the. 1277 00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:01,240 Speaker 3: How do I want to give the team to the 1278 00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:03,360 Speaker 3: better offense, give the ball to the offense with the 1279 00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:05,360 Speaker 3: best player in the league who I can't stop. 1280 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:09,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I have a new scenario for you. 1281 00:59:10,720 --> 00:59:11,720 Speaker 3: Love it now. 1282 00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:15,280 Speaker 1: This is I'm very curious. Let's say there's less than 1283 00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:17,560 Speaker 1: four minutes left or you're getting toward the end of 1284 00:59:17,600 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 1: the game. I want to say this happened in a 1285 00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:22,080 Speaker 1: situation yesterday. I can't recall which game it was, but 1286 00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:27,360 Speaker 1: the team scores to go up their six points now 1287 00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:30,840 Speaker 1: gives them a seven point lead before the extra point. 1288 00:59:31,440 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 1: Extra point gives them an eight point lead. My question is, 1289 00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:39,439 Speaker 1: in that situation, why would you not think about going 1290 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:43,000 Speaker 1: for two to make it a nine point game. So 1291 00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:45,200 Speaker 1: that way you're getting a true two possession game. Saw 1292 00:59:46,080 --> 00:59:46,800 Speaker 1: which game was that? 1293 00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:50,200 Speaker 3: I saw somebody sent me on on Twitter. 1294 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 1: I want to say. I want to say, I see 1295 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:54,920 Speaker 1: somebody else walking or post about it too. I want 1296 00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 1: to say, because I want to shout out the boy. 1297 00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:59,919 Speaker 1: I think it's a I saw somebody asking this, Gosh 1298 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:03,840 Speaker 1: damn it. Jake Maliseak, Jake Malisek with John Gruden. Yeah, 1299 01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:05,920 Speaker 1: over at barstool, he was asking the same thing. And 1300 01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:07,240 Speaker 1: I've been curious about that as well. 1301 01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:11,440 Speaker 3: All right, so here's my approach on that. And it's 1302 01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:14,479 Speaker 3: a valid point, right, being up eight versus being up nine. 1303 01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:19,560 Speaker 3: Once you go up nine, it's a must two possession game, right, 1304 01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:23,439 Speaker 3: you have to score twice. And an eight point game 1305 01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:27,240 Speaker 3: is a one score game. Call it half the time, right, 1306 01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:30,880 Speaker 3: So chance of it being a one score game, it's 1307 01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,880 Speaker 3: not a guaranteed one score game. You could need two possessions. 1308 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:38,680 Speaker 3: At nine points, you obviously need two possessions. I want 1309 01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:41,000 Speaker 3: to say, there was like eight or nine minutes to 1310 01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:43,960 Speaker 3: go in that game when they kicked the extra point. 1311 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:46,560 Speaker 3: If I'm not mistaken, you can fact check me there, Okay, 1312 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:50,880 Speaker 3: So my typical perspective is at eight or nine, with 1313 01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:55,320 Speaker 3: eight or nine minutes, you're gonna give your opponent at 1314 01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:58,720 Speaker 3: least two possessions, so just the score. At this point 1315 01:00:58,760 --> 01:01:01,800 Speaker 3: of the game, you start talking about how many possessions 1316 01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 3: in a regular game, no on side kick and all that. 1317 01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:07,560 Speaker 3: How many possessions is your opponent. 1318 01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:07,760 Speaker 1: Going to get? 1319 01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:11,120 Speaker 3: If there's if it's at a point of a game 1320 01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:13,240 Speaker 3: where say you're under the two minute warning and I'm 1321 01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 3: the underdog and it's Josh Allen and he's my opponent, 1322 01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:19,240 Speaker 3: do I want to give the ball to Josh Allen 1323 01:01:20,160 --> 01:01:23,120 Speaker 3: with down eight or do I want to just make 1324 01:01:23,240 --> 01:01:25,560 Speaker 3: this nine and say he could be Josh Allen and 1325 01:01:25,640 --> 01:01:27,800 Speaker 3: he can go down there and score on me. He 1326 01:01:27,960 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 3: has to score on sidekick, get it score again the 1327 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:35,240 Speaker 3: odds of me, I feel a lot more comfortable defending 1328 01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:38,360 Speaker 3: that lead in those situations. But there's a time element, 1329 01:01:38,640 --> 01:01:41,880 Speaker 3: right putting Josh Allen down by nine with the risk 1330 01:01:41,960 --> 01:01:42,640 Speaker 3: of only being. 1331 01:01:42,600 --> 01:01:44,400 Speaker 1: Trying to put him down by nine, because again, if 1332 01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:46,120 Speaker 1: the offense gets the ball back, they could just go 1333 01:01:46,440 --> 01:01:47,840 Speaker 1: to at the end and then they could get you 1334 01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:50,200 Speaker 1: because again you're only up by seven. 1335 01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:55,200 Speaker 3: So correct, So where that's where the time element comes 1336 01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:58,680 Speaker 3: in and changes a lot of these factors. Right, you 1337 01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 3: go back to our thing that started all this craziness 1338 01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:05,240 Speaker 3: was the down fifteen of Philadelphia. I would make an 1339 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:09,080 Speaker 3: argument if you're down fifteen and you're at a point 1340 01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:12,760 Speaker 3: of a game where you have to onside kick anyway, 1341 01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:16,400 Speaker 3: right because there's a minute thirty left when you score, 1342 01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:20,960 Speaker 3: I'm kicking an extra point because no matter what, I'm 1343 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:24,800 Speaker 3: still taking the on side kick after that scores, even 1344 01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:26,400 Speaker 3: if I'm down eight, i still have to on side 1345 01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:27,840 Speaker 3: kick to get the ball back because there's only a 1346 01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:29,560 Speaker 3: minute thirty. I'm not gonna be able to get the 1347 01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:32,280 Speaker 3: ball back with any meaningful time to go down to score. 1348 01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:35,680 Speaker 3: Now that scenario there was like just under four minutes. 1349 01:02:36,520 --> 01:02:38,840 Speaker 3: If I get the two point conversion, I don't have 1350 01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:41,840 Speaker 3: to onside kick, right because I'm only down seven. I 1351 01:02:41,920 --> 01:02:43,960 Speaker 3: have my three timeouts plus the two minute warning, I'm 1352 01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:46,440 Speaker 3: gonna kick it deep. So a lot of these decision 1353 01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:51,640 Speaker 3: making in those scenarios are very time dependent. The less time, right, 1354 01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:54,480 Speaker 3: it's teams when to go for two to win the 1355 01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:56,560 Speaker 3: game and when to kick the extra point to tie 1356 01:02:56,600 --> 01:02:59,440 Speaker 3: the game. So it was the Panthers game yesterday, they're 1357 01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:04,560 Speaker 3: up seven team ten. New Orleans goes down to score 1358 01:03:04,600 --> 01:03:07,560 Speaker 3: a touchdown, but they only kicked the extra point to 1359 01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:10,760 Speaker 3: make it seventeen seventeen. If there was thirty seconds left 1360 01:03:10,840 --> 01:03:14,680 Speaker 3: in that game, that's a much different conversation. Now, if 1361 01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:19,080 Speaker 3: I go for two, I win in regulation and virtually 1362 01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:20,880 Speaker 3: the game is over because you got thirty seconds in 1363 01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:23,720 Speaker 3: no timeouts. But there was a lot of time left. 1364 01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:25,320 Speaker 3: It was on the plus side of the two minute warning. 1365 01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:26,600 Speaker 3: I want to say they gave the ball back to 1366 01:03:26,680 --> 01:03:30,439 Speaker 3: Carolina with like two thirty on the clock. You're better 1367 01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:34,480 Speaker 3: off being tied with two thirty on the clock than 1368 01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:37,480 Speaker 3: even being up one. Because now, what does being up 1369 01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:39,959 Speaker 3: one do? It puts Bryce Young into four down mode, 1370 01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:43,320 Speaker 3: hyper aggressive to go down to beat you. What did 1371 01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:47,800 Speaker 3: Caroline do? It was tied, they went incomplete, incomplete, He 1372 01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:50,439 Speaker 3: was able to scramble for a first down. Long story short, 1373 01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:52,760 Speaker 3: they took a sack, they could, they punted it back 1374 01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:56,720 Speaker 3: to you. Now you now New Orleans went down on 1375 01:03:56,720 --> 01:03:59,360 Speaker 3: the game winning drive. So all of these situations, whether 1376 01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:01,800 Speaker 3: it's going up eight verse nine, whether it's going for 1377 01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:04,360 Speaker 3: two early, whether it's going for two to win the 1378 01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:08,439 Speaker 3: game in regulation, take a lead or tie it. Time 1379 01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:11,040 Speaker 3: is a critical element. Come the back half of the 1380 01:04:11,080 --> 01:04:13,040 Speaker 3: fourth quarter got you? 1381 01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:17,640 Speaker 1: So is there a cutoff in your brain when there 1382 01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:21,439 Speaker 1: was eight nine minutes left and this again, I forget 1383 01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:23,080 Speaker 1: which game it was, but this team kicks up to 1384 01:04:23,120 --> 01:04:25,880 Speaker 1: go up eight instead of thinking about going for two 1385 01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:27,720 Speaker 1: to make it nine points. Is there a cutoff to 1386 01:04:27,760 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 1: where it's like, hey, I'm going to try and get 1387 01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:32,959 Speaker 1: nine points in this situation risk? 1388 01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:35,960 Speaker 3: I don't think you have the timeouts, the two minute 1389 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:38,800 Speaker 3: warning timeouts. How many times can you stop the clock 1390 01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:40,400 Speaker 3: two minute warning timeouts? 1391 01:04:40,560 --> 01:04:40,840 Speaker 1: Okay? 1392 01:04:41,440 --> 01:04:43,600 Speaker 3: And what is the likelihood of you possessing the ball 1393 01:04:43,640 --> 01:04:46,680 Speaker 3: and without getting an onside kick, without something crazy happening? 1394 01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:49,080 Speaker 3: What is the chances in a normal flow game of 1395 01:04:49,160 --> 01:04:52,720 Speaker 3: you possessing the ball two more times? If the likelihood 1396 01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:55,320 Speaker 3: is that you're going to possess the ball two more times, 1397 01:04:56,360 --> 01:04:58,400 Speaker 3: it's not as valuable. I'm better off being up eight. 1398 01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:00,600 Speaker 3: Kick disra point to be up eight. Where at least 1399 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,920 Speaker 3: you can't beat me in a one possession game. You 1400 01:05:04,040 --> 01:05:07,400 Speaker 3: can only at best time me and fifty percent of 1401 01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:09,800 Speaker 3: the time you're gonna still lose to me. Yeah, Yeah, 1402 01:05:10,480 --> 01:05:13,360 Speaker 3: but if I can make it nine, you have to 1403 01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:17,600 Speaker 3: touch the ball twice? Yeah, do you have enough time 1404 01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:20,800 Speaker 3: for that to happen without a five percent chance of 1405 01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:24,360 Speaker 3: an on side kick? That's where my head goes making 1406 01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:25,160 Speaker 3: those decisions. 1407 01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:26,640 Speaker 1: Gotcha? 1408 01:05:27,560 --> 01:05:28,120 Speaker 3: And who am I. 1409 01:05:28,160 --> 01:05:30,720 Speaker 1: Kicking the ball back to right a lot of area? 1410 01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:32,360 Speaker 3: Am my kicking the ball? Am I kicking the ball 1411 01:05:32,440 --> 01:05:35,200 Speaker 3: back to a team that can't score? Worth the shit? 1412 01:05:35,280 --> 01:05:36,600 Speaker 3: Or am I kicking the ball back to a team 1413 01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:39,520 Speaker 3: that scored four touchdowns in a row? On me? Like Buffalo? 1414 01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:44,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really these conversations show Like as I've gotten 1415 01:05:44,240 --> 01:05:46,080 Speaker 2: more and more out of the league, I've realized how 1416 01:05:46,160 --> 01:05:48,480 Speaker 2: important coaching is. And I know it's a weird thing 1417 01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:50,800 Speaker 2: to say, but like, as a player, I think we 1418 01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:53,040 Speaker 2: live in this world of like brainwashing, like we're gonna 1419 01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:55,000 Speaker 2: get it done for the boys, especially in college, Like 1420 01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:57,080 Speaker 2: you're like, hey, we can win every single game because 1421 01:05:57,120 --> 01:05:59,160 Speaker 2: a grit and spit in the whole thing. And then 1422 01:05:59,200 --> 01:06:01,600 Speaker 2: as you get farther farther remove, do you realize how 1423 01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:05,920 Speaker 2: these little moments in games, how critically important they are. 1424 01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:09,040 Speaker 2: And it's just it's, dude, it's so fascinating to like 1425 01:06:09,640 --> 01:06:11,480 Speaker 2: be thirty four years old, three years out of the league, 1426 01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:13,360 Speaker 2: and like still like being like, yo, this is insane. 1427 01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:15,080 Speaker 2: I didn't even know this when I was playing. How 1428 01:06:15,160 --> 01:06:16,040 Speaker 2: important this was. 1429 01:06:16,760 --> 01:06:19,160 Speaker 3: Did you see the Mike McDonald interview after the game. 1430 01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 3: Everyone's talking a lot about it, about him using those timeouts. 1431 01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:26,760 Speaker 3: Indianapolis had the ball before they went down to take 1432 01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:30,680 Speaker 3: the go ahead field goal. They asked Mike McDonald about, 1433 01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:32,920 Speaker 3: how did you squeeze out another possession and you ended 1434 01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:35,840 Speaker 3: up giving yourself another opportunity to go answer the field 1435 01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:40,439 Speaker 3: goal which eventually walked off Indy, And he talked about 1436 01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:43,200 Speaker 3: his analytics guy and how they build these and mentioned 1437 01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:45,240 Speaker 3: the guy by name, and the guy's like, hey, and 1438 01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:48,200 Speaker 3: we've said this a thousand times on broadcast, so it's 1439 01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:51,600 Speaker 3: nice to now hear these coaches say it in postgame interviews. 1440 01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:55,120 Speaker 3: For now everybody to cover it. You always use your 1441 01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:59,240 Speaker 3: timeouts on defense. You always use your timeouts on defense 1442 01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:02,360 Speaker 3: because I can't stop the clock on defense like I 1443 01:07:02,400 --> 01:07:05,600 Speaker 3: can on offense. And by doing that, you hear these 1444 01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:08,439 Speaker 3: coaches all the time say, oh, save one for the kick, 1445 01:07:08,800 --> 01:07:12,520 Speaker 3: save one for your offense. You're better off having more 1446 01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:17,960 Speaker 3: time with no timeouts than less time with more timeouts 1447 01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:21,200 Speaker 3: as an offense, so they burn time out, time out, 1448 01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:23,440 Speaker 3: time out, they end up kicking a field goal. You 1449 01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:27,200 Speaker 3: get the ball back with no timeouts. But I can 1450 01:07:27,280 --> 01:07:28,960 Speaker 3: stop the clock, I can clock it, I can throw 1451 01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:30,280 Speaker 3: it out of bounds, I can get you know, there's 1452 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:32,360 Speaker 3: a million ways for me to do it. If they 1453 01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:33,800 Speaker 3: would have said, oh, we've got to save a time 1454 01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:35,520 Speaker 3: out for the field goal, we've got to save a 1455 01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:40,400 Speaker 3: timeout for the offense, that time is way more valuable 1456 01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:44,920 Speaker 3: to your offense than that one timeout. And Mike McDonald 1457 01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:47,320 Speaker 3: played it perfectly, called all of his timeouts on the 1458 01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:50,160 Speaker 3: minus side of the two minute warning, all on defense, 1459 01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:53,600 Speaker 3: gave his offense a chance and they won. Yeah, that 1460 01:07:53,760 --> 01:07:57,360 Speaker 3: wasn't a that was not an emotional in the moment decision. 1461 01:07:57,680 --> 01:07:59,360 Speaker 3: That shit was decided four months ago. 1462 01:08:00,320 --> 01:08:03,960 Speaker 1: And you have to have a supreme operation offensively because 1463 01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:06,560 Speaker 1: again defensively, you're trying to protect a sideline. More so, 1464 01:08:06,600 --> 01:08:09,560 Speaker 1: of course, can't get started, it can't get the opposite. 1465 01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:12,120 Speaker 3: They could have easily. But here's what's funny. He could 1466 01:08:12,160 --> 01:08:16,000 Speaker 3: have done everything the exact same and they don't get 1467 01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:19,439 Speaker 3: in field goal range, or Myers misses the kick and 1468 01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:22,320 Speaker 3: no one after the game is saying, Mike McDonald, you 1469 01:08:22,520 --> 01:08:26,320 Speaker 3: did a great job with your timeouts. Right. The story 1470 01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 3: is you lost to a forty four year old quarterback 1471 01:08:28,960 --> 01:08:32,719 Speaker 3: who retired five years ago. Yeah, so again, we only 1472 01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:37,720 Speaker 3: reward the really good coaches when the outcome benefits them, right, 1473 01:08:38,760 --> 01:08:41,200 Speaker 3: But he still did a great job managing the game. 1474 01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:43,120 Speaker 3: The only reason we're talking about it is because they 1475 01:08:43,160 --> 01:08:43,879 Speaker 3: won the game. 1476 01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:49,599 Speaker 2: Righteah, and because Philip Rivers was playing. That's just absolutely incredible, dude. 1477 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:55,360 Speaker 2: Chargers Chiefs sixteen thirteen. It's the first time since nineteen 1478 01:08:55,479 --> 01:08:58,519 Speaker 2: ninety eight that the playoffs will not feature Tom Brady, 1479 01:08:59,040 --> 01:09:02,760 Speaker 2: Peyton Manning or Patrick Mahomes since nineteen ninety eight. And 1480 01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:05,840 Speaker 2: I know, like Will, like we've played this game before, 1481 01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:08,160 Speaker 2: of like Will being a hater of the Chiefs, but 1482 01:09:08,280 --> 01:09:10,760 Speaker 2: you like watching the season Week one in Brazil, they 1483 01:09:11,320 --> 01:09:13,320 Speaker 2: play the Chargers, they lose, everyone's like, oh, they'll get 1484 01:09:13,360 --> 01:09:16,679 Speaker 2: back on track, and then as the season's gotten going, 1485 01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:20,280 Speaker 2: they've kind of gone from this. Like anytime the Chiefs lose, 1486 01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:22,520 Speaker 2: it's like, oh, their offensive line was kind of overpowered 1487 01:09:22,560 --> 01:09:24,679 Speaker 2: and Patrick Mahomes didn't have time to do as much magic. 1488 01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:27,960 Speaker 2: And then later in the season in late November early December. 1489 01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:31,240 Speaker 2: It turned into, Hey, these guys that were so used 1490 01:09:31,280 --> 01:09:35,520 Speaker 2: to making incredible plays aren't making those plays, whether it's drops, miscues, 1491 01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:38,559 Speaker 2: all these types of things. And then yesterday happens where 1492 01:09:38,720 --> 01:09:41,400 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes rolls out to the right his left leg 1493 01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:43,360 Speaker 2: hyper extents. It looks like an ACL. I think it 1494 01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:45,719 Speaker 2: was confirmed by Patrick himself that it is an ACL, 1495 01:09:46,400 --> 01:09:50,360 Speaker 2: and we are potentially looking at the last time Kelsey 1496 01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:53,599 Speaker 2: and Mahomes are together this Chiefs run. You know, there's 1497 01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:55,800 Speaker 2: a lot of question marks taking place, and I don't 1498 01:09:55,840 --> 01:09:57,600 Speaker 2: really know where this conversation is going on than like 1499 01:09:58,360 --> 01:10:01,080 Speaker 2: this is fucking wild, tough ta take place. 1500 01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:04,280 Speaker 1: As as a guy who's been like a Chiefs troll, 1501 01:10:04,439 --> 01:10:08,160 Speaker 1: Chiefs hater, I didn't even feel good feeling celebratory in 1502 01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:10,559 Speaker 1: the Chiefs losing and officially being out of playoffs because 1503 01:10:10,560 --> 01:10:12,599 Speaker 1: the Bills won two against New England that's what knocked 1504 01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:16,839 Speaker 1: them out. Yeah, to see Mahomes go down, bro, it's heartbreaking. 1505 01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:20,320 Speaker 1: And again it's like another bizarre stat was I want 1506 01:10:20,320 --> 01:10:22,839 Speaker 1: to say Tom Brady in his ninth season towards ACL, 1507 01:10:22,960 --> 01:10:25,240 Speaker 1: they didn't make New England, didn't make the playoffs. Patrick 1508 01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:27,840 Speaker 1: Mahomes ninth season in the NFL tears his ACL. Chiefs 1509 01:10:27,840 --> 01:10:29,800 Speaker 1: didn't make the playoffs. Just a lot of these weird 1510 01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:33,080 Speaker 1: dots getting connected. Is the Chiefs dynasty over? Is that 1511 01:10:33,160 --> 01:10:35,360 Speaker 1: the last time we're ever going to see Travis Kelce 1512 01:10:35,760 --> 01:10:39,200 Speaker 1: on the football field? Patrick Mahomes Just tearing your ACL 1513 01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:42,720 Speaker 1: in fucking December two. It's just brutal, especially when you're 1514 01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:44,559 Speaker 1: trying to save the season. It's not likely that you're 1515 01:10:44,560 --> 01:10:48,240 Speaker 1: gonna make the playoffs, and they see it happen that way, 1516 01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:51,800 Speaker 1: is you know, shitty man. So, yeah, you're gonna you're 1517 01:10:51,800 --> 01:10:54,160 Speaker 1: gonna be training all off season, You're gonna be getting 1518 01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:56,200 Speaker 1: you know, you're gonna be dialed in and locked in. 1519 01:10:56,360 --> 01:10:57,800 Speaker 1: You have to be if you're going to make what 1520 01:10:58,000 --> 01:10:59,080 Speaker 1: week one of next year? 1521 01:10:59,360 --> 01:11:03,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, you have of essentially like these next Like Greg, 1522 01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:04,280 Speaker 2: you've ever you've never an ACL? 1523 01:11:05,040 --> 01:11:05,080 Speaker 3: No? 1524 01:11:05,280 --> 01:11:07,120 Speaker 2: Okay, well, the ACL game is this Like when you 1525 01:11:07,240 --> 01:11:08,880 Speaker 2: tear your ACL. A lot of times guys can go 1526 01:11:08,960 --> 01:11:11,840 Speaker 2: get surgery twenty four forty eight hours later, or some 1527 01:11:12,200 --> 01:11:14,200 Speaker 2: times it takes guys multiple weeks. You'll get the surgery 1528 01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:16,439 Speaker 2: and they have to actually exercise the leg to pump 1529 01:11:16,479 --> 01:11:19,240 Speaker 2: out the swelling because the knee based on how much swelling. 1530 01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:20,800 Speaker 2: If you have a lot of it, then you have 1531 01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:22,400 Speaker 2: to take time to get that swelling up before you 1532 01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:25,759 Speaker 2: can go. And so every day week that takes place. 1533 01:11:26,439 --> 01:11:28,760 Speaker 2: Like right now, we're on that fringe area, where can 1534 01:11:28,840 --> 01:11:31,439 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes make it eight months from now to week one? 1535 01:11:31,720 --> 01:11:34,360 Speaker 2: And that's gonna be the storyline heading into July with 1536 01:11:34,439 --> 01:11:37,519 Speaker 2: the Chiefs with their revamped offensive, whether Kelsey is there 1537 01:11:37,600 --> 01:11:39,960 Speaker 2: or not, what kind of new pieces they've they've added 1538 01:11:40,040 --> 01:11:42,799 Speaker 2: to it. It's a it's gonna be a very interesting 1539 01:11:42,840 --> 01:11:44,839 Speaker 2: offseason for Patrick Mahomes cause. 1540 01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:46,840 Speaker 1: Is this a player you feel like you're up against 1541 01:11:46,840 --> 01:11:48,120 Speaker 1: the clock every day, up against. 1542 01:11:47,840 --> 01:11:49,680 Speaker 2: The clock every single day. And if you could just 1543 01:11:49,760 --> 01:11:52,519 Speaker 2: grab Mahomes and be like, bro, week one does not 1544 01:11:52,760 --> 01:11:54,680 Speaker 2: matter next year.

Don't let's not rush the game 1549 01:12:04,040 --> 01:12:05,800 Speaker 2: to week one because we all know how long of 1550 01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:07,719 Speaker 2: a season it is.

You can't pay everyone. Guys get big contracts 1586 01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:53,320 Speaker 3: off winning teams that they're not even that good, But 1587 01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:54,840 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, it's like I need a piece 1588 01:13:54,880 --> 01:13:56,840 Speaker 3: of the Chiefs. I need a piece of the Patriots. 1589 01:13:57,120 --> 01:13:59,920 Speaker 3: And coaches get jobs they wouldn't otherwise get, players get 1590 01:14:00,080 --> 01:14:04,280 Speaker 3: contracts they wouldn't otherwise get. Winning is the greatest preventor 1591 01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:07,200 Speaker 3: of future winning, and it's by design in the NFL. 1592 01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:10,080 Speaker 3: So it's more of that for me, Like to see 1593 01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:12,680 Speaker 3: what Travis has done to see what Kelsey's done, I mean, 1594 01:14:13,360 --> 01:14:15,479 Speaker 3: Mahomes and these guys Like I just as a guy 1595 01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:19,080 Speaker 3: who loves football and appreciates how hard it is. I 1596 01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:20,920 Speaker 3: just have a lot of respect for what these guys 1597 01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:24,160 Speaker 3: have done over the last you know, ever many years. Yeah. 1598 01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:27,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, just the sickening work ethic and mentality and mentality 1599 01:14:27,320 --> 01:14:29,160 Speaker 1: that goes into showing up year and and you're out, 1600 01:14:29,240 --> 01:14:31,880 Speaker 1: Especially when you've been at the top for so long, 1601 01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:35,000 Speaker 1: you can easily like lose that edge, you know, drink 1602 01:14:35,040 --> 01:14:36,840 Speaker 1: your own kool aid all that stuff. And for them 1603 01:14:36,920 --> 01:14:40,680 Speaker 1: to maintain that dominance for so long. Uh Yeah, it's 1604 01:14:40,680 --> 01:14:43,720 Speaker 1: definitely an appreciation and respect just for what that kind 1605 01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:48,040 Speaker 1: of success takes. It's weird. It's it is weird knowing 1606 01:14:48,120 --> 01:14:51,400 Speaker 1: that I've been rooting for the Chiefs downfall and they're 1607 01:14:51,560 --> 01:14:53,920 Speaker 1: actually not in it this year, actually not in it 1608 01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:56,000 Speaker 1: in the way they're not in it too. Yeah. Yeah, 1609 01:14:56,120 --> 01:14:59,559 Speaker 1: it's almost like not as fun either years ago. Part 1610 01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:02,519 Speaker 1: of me that like, they're not they're not in the playoffs. No, 1611 01:15:02,560 --> 01:15:04,320 Speaker 1: they're not gonna make They've been out of it. Even 1612 01:15:04,400 --> 01:15:06,599 Speaker 1: though this week was the last final domino. In my head, 1613 01:15:06,600 --> 01:15:08,040 Speaker 1: they've been out of it. They're not gonna make it, 1614 01:15:08,160 --> 01:15:09,559 Speaker 1: but the fact that they're not out of it, there's 1615 01:15:09,560 --> 01:15:12,200 Speaker 1: almost this little part of me that was hopeful that 1616 01:15:12,320 --> 01:15:14,519 Speaker 1: would they that they would go on this winning streak 1617 01:15:14,520 --> 01:15:16,680 Speaker 1: and then somehow they make it in the playoffs and 1618 01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:19,800 Speaker 1: the boogey Man made it to the playoffs.

I feel like that that 1735 01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:07,880 Speaker 1: obviously he's gonna be in the conversation. But I'm sitting 1736 01:20:07,920 --> 01:20:09,799 Speaker 1: here like I saw Danny would be, like Josh Allen's 1737 01:20:09,800 --> 01:20:11,720 Speaker 1: the MVP right now after the couple weeks that he's 1738 01:20:11,760 --> 01:20:14,040 Speaker 1: had this eb I get playing late like he's the 1739 01:20:14,080 --> 01:20:15,880 Speaker 1: guy that's got it all on his shoulders, doing less, 1740 01:20:16,160 --> 01:20:18,160 Speaker 1: are doing more with less? Yeah, yeada YadA. But I'm 1741 01:20:18,160 --> 01:20:19,519 Speaker 1: sitting here, It's like, are we really going to get 1742 01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:21,519 Speaker 1: this close to one of the better years that Matt 1743 01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:24,200 Speaker 1: Stafford's ever had where he's got what thirty five touchdowns 1744 01:20:24,400 --> 01:20:25,840 Speaker 1: in one game? Five or seven? 1745 01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:28,400 Speaker 3: A lot's going to be? How I think A lots? Now, 1746 01:20:28,479 --> 01:20:29,880 Speaker 3: remind me when does the voting end? 1747 01:20:30,400 --> 01:20:32,320 Speaker 2: It's before the super Bowl but. 1748 01:20:34,240 --> 01:20:38,240 Speaker 1: Count right, Yes, yeah that's what I thought, But it does. Yeah, 1749 01:20:38,360 --> 01:20:40,120 Speaker 1: the super Bowl super Bowl does not count. 1750 01:20:40,720 --> 01:20:43,479 Speaker 3: I think it's gonna all depend on right. I think 1751 01:20:43,520 --> 01:20:47,560 Speaker 3: it's it literally could come down to and again, I 1752 01:20:47,600 --> 01:20:51,360 Speaker 3: think the Rams are nasty. I'm speaking hypotheticals. I'm a 1753 01:20:51,439 --> 01:20:54,320 Speaker 3: huge Stafford guy. You guys know that hypothetically they lost 1754 01:20:54,360 --> 01:21:01,000 Speaker 3: in the Divisional round two. Whoever, and Josh Allen gets 1755 01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:03,800 Speaker 3: over the hump and he makes the super Bowl. 1756 01:21:04,920 --> 01:21:05,519 Speaker 1: Yeah that's fair. 1757 01:21:05,680 --> 01:21:06,479 Speaker 2: Yeah that's over. 1758 01:21:06,840 --> 01:21:10,560 Speaker 3: So I again, I think the team element come playoffs 1759 01:21:10,760 --> 01:21:14,679 Speaker 3: is going to be a huge differentiating factor because outside 1760 01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:17,519 Speaker 3: of Josh and I guess Stafford, but as far as 1761 01:21:17,560 --> 01:21:20,559 Speaker 3: like the usual suspects that are in that MVP race, 1762 01:21:21,040 --> 01:21:25,000 Speaker 3: no La Mar, no Mahomes, like the usual suspects, the 1763 01:21:25,120 --> 01:21:28,080 Speaker 3: only one left of those names is Josh Allen, and 1764 01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:30,960 Speaker 3: then you got Stafford, and then Drake may is like 1765 01:21:31,040 --> 01:21:33,000 Speaker 3: the new kid on the block who's kind of lingering 1766 01:21:33,160 --> 01:21:36,640 Speaker 3: and maybe he's an AFC Championship win away from him 1767 01:21:36,680 --> 01:21:39,639 Speaker 3: winning it. So I do think the playoff team result 1768 01:21:40,880 --> 01:21:42,479 Speaker 3: is going to be a factor. But if you told 1769 01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:44,600 Speaker 3: me that Josh Allen's getting ready to play in the 1770 01:21:44,680 --> 01:21:48,160 Speaker 3: super Bowl and those other guys who had amazing seasons 1771 01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:51,360 Speaker 3: are done and he's getting ready to play the Seahawk. 1772 01:21:51,520 --> 01:21:55,799 Speaker 3: If he's getting ready to play the Seahawks, I'm probably 1773 01:21:55,840 --> 01:21:58,000 Speaker 3: making the argument that Josh Allen's the MVP as well 1774 01:21:58,000 --> 01:21:59,880 Speaker 3: because he got that roster, he got that team to 1775 01:22:00,040 --> 01:22:02,120 Speaker 3: the super Bowl. It's probably more impressive than what he 1776 01:22:02,200 --> 01:22:02,760 Speaker 3: did last year. 1777 01:22:02,960 --> 01:22:05,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I understand what you're saying. It 1778 01:22:05,520 --> 01:22:07,720 Speaker 1: would be hard to argue that. I'm just as we 1779 01:22:07,840 --> 01:22:10,599 Speaker 1: start to and again, Josh Allen's definitely closing the gap. 1780 01:22:10,800 --> 01:22:12,720 Speaker 1: And I know stats are not everything. I do think 1781 01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:15,839 Speaker 1: Josh Allen is he is one of the best players, 1782 01:22:15,880 --> 01:22:17,920 Speaker 1: if not the best player in the NFL. But I'm 1783 01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:20,080 Speaker 1: sitting here and I'm looking at how much kool aid 1784 01:22:20,080 --> 01:22:24,080 Speaker 1: we're drinking with this MVP race, with Josh Allen making 1785 01:22:24,160 --> 01:22:26,800 Speaker 1: all like closing the gap this much, and I'm sitting here, 1786 01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:29,439 Speaker 1: I'm like, dude, we just can't Like Stafford has thrown 1787 01:22:29,479 --> 01:22:32,400 Speaker 1: for thirty seven out of yards, he's the MVP right now. Yeah, 1788 01:22:32,479 --> 01:22:35,760 Speaker 1: thirty seven touchdowns, five interceptions. Josh Allen's got twenty five 1789 01:22:35,800 --> 01:22:38,559 Speaker 1: to ten. I know stats are not everything. I'm just man, 1790 01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:41,559 Speaker 1: we cannot like I feel like sta is so close 1791 01:22:41,640 --> 01:22:44,320 Speaker 1: all these years, and the fact that he's this far above, 1792 01:22:45,120 --> 01:22:47,280 Speaker 1: not like that far above, like the gap is not 1793 01:22:47,479 --> 01:22:50,280 Speaker 1: insanely wide, but where he's kind of sitting compared to 1794 01:22:50,320 --> 01:22:53,160 Speaker 1: everybody else who's in the conversation, I'm like, I would 1795 01:22:53,240 --> 01:22:56,720 Speaker 1: hate to just see Stafford get cuked when he's right there, 1796 01:22:57,160 --> 01:22:59,280 Speaker 1: he could easily have the MVP trophy. 1797 01:22:59,560 --> 01:23:04,160 Speaker 3: Ye win one playoff game, I think you will, and 1798 01:23:04,240 --> 01:23:06,040 Speaker 3: I think he wins it. So again, it couldn't. That 1799 01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:08,160 Speaker 3: could mean an NFC championship right because he could get 1800 01:23:08,160 --> 01:23:10,400 Speaker 3: the bye. Thursday is going to be huge. He could 1801 01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:14,400 Speaker 3: get the bye if he wins the divisional round. He's 1802 01:23:14,439 --> 01:23:17,599 Speaker 3: in the conference championship. I think win or lose, he's 1803 01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:18,160 Speaker 3: the m v P. 1804 01:23:18,439 --> 01:23:20,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm. 1805 01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:23,880 Speaker 3: Not I'm not saying Stafford right now, if I had 1806 01:23:23,920 --> 01:23:26,960 Speaker 3: a vote, he'd be my vote. I'm just saying we 1807 01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:29,960 Speaker 3: all know how this works. An early exit by by 1808 01:23:30,120 --> 01:23:32,800 Speaker 3: the Rams, even if Stafford plays well, an early exit 1809 01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:38,080 Speaker 3: by the Rams, and a super Bowl run by the Bills, Yeah, 1810 01:23:39,400 --> 01:23:42,799 Speaker 3: it's going to factor in right or wrong, right or wrong. 1811 01:23:43,200 --> 01:23:46,639 Speaker 2: Rams Bills super Bowl would be that'd be sick, sick, 1812 01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:49,880 Speaker 2: that would be awesome.
