Historically, the one 26 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: team that gives Tom Brady the most trouble is arguably 27 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: the New York Giants, at least when they get to 28 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl against him, because they've defeated him twice. 29 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: But those Giants teams are a distant memory Brady. The 30 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: Buccaneers came away with an easy twenty point win on 31 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 1: Monday night. Although Brady never looked happy on the sidelines, 32 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: That game should have been maybe fifty to ten. But 33 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: you know, you start to look at this Giants team. 34 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: They failed to create an identity under Joe Judge. You 35 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: got a third year quarterback Daniel Jones who's struggling. Running 36 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: Back Saquon Barkley was on the field but didn't do 37 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: much defense, has very few impact players. It's just more 38 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: of the same mistake prone football that we've seen since 39 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 1: those two Super Bowl years. And even though it was 40 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: a twenty point, when Brady looked frustrating, you got the 41 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 1: sense that he thought they should have scored a whole 42 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: lot more, and that's why Brady's great never satisfied and 43 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: probably didn't feel like he got any revenge on the 44 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: Giants with this game. But this is nothing like the 45 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 1: Giants teams that beat him all those years ago, and 46 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,399 Speaker 1: still struggling to kind of figure out who they are 47 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 1: and what direction you're going to take, because it felt 48 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:38,079 Speaker 1: like after the game, Joe Judge was basically putting all 49 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:44,119 Speaker 1: of his coaching staff on notice. It's fair to say 50 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: that coaches players a fair Yeah, put that on down. 51 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: You can put that down tonight. Got that you guys 52 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 1: can write that tonight. All right, Now, the players got execute. 53 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: That's their job, right, It's our job to teach him. 54 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: Is their job to go out there and execute. But 55 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: we've got to make sure we keep putting in a 56 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: position to have success. And it's got to be consistently 57 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: that way. So you know, you can go and write 58 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,679 Speaker 1: that down and I'm not going to debate that. Yeah, 59 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: that's the new trend this year is coaches blaming coaches 60 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: over blaming themselves. Yeah, seton, Joe, Jed sounds like a 61 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: college coach there. It's our job to teach these kids. 62 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: Hold up, dude, some of those kids are making like 63 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: thirty million dollars a year. Bro, What are you talking about? 64 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: I know, but you also remember Matt Patricia when he 65 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: left the Patriots came into Detroit this attitude, like people 66 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: think because you were on the Patriots coaching staff that 67 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: somehow that makes you Bill Belichick, you don't get Tom Brady. 68 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: You know, when you go to Detroit, you don't get 69 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: Tom Brady. You go to the Giants, you don't have 70 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: Tom Brady. It takes away a little bit of the 71 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: swagger there. So when you want to talk tough and 72 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: this is the way we do it, and no, that's 73 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: not how it works. And you've seen that Matt Patricia 74 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: didn't work out. I don't know if Joe Judge is 75 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: going to But just because you were special teams coach 76 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: in New England doesn't mean that you're the guy who 77 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: should be running a football team. You know, you got 78 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: issues here. You got a GM. Dave Gettlman seems like 79 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: you know, he's walking the plank as well. But they 80 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: just haven't. They haven't drafted, well, they haven't. They haven't 81 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: done a good job. I thought that they in the offseason. 82 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 1: We're going to shore up the offense. Got some weapons, 83 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: but can't count on se Quon Barkley and Daniel Jones 84 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: has all the physical elements that you want in a quarterback. 85 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 1: He truly does. He just makes bad decisions. I don't 86 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: know if it's fixable. Jameis Winston had all the attributes. 87 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's fixable. You know that's why 88 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 1: he didn't get a second contract with Tampa Bay. Daniel 89 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: Jones strikes me as a guy who's going to be 90 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: a backup quarterback in this league. Has talent, will have 91 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: flashes when he gets a chance. He just not consistent. 92 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 1: He threw an interception last night where you just go 93 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: why how he threw it to a defensive lineman who 94 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: probably was like, what you just threw it to me? 95 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: I gotta catch it. But you watched the game last night. 96 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 1: I didn't come away and pressed with the Buccaneers because 97 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: they were a whole lot better than the Giants. But 98 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: as far as the Giants moving forward, you don't give 99 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: sae Quon Barkley another contract. I don't want to extend 100 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones. So what is the identity of the once 101 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: proud New York Football Giants. They don't have one. The 102 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: Jets might have a little bit more of a profile 103 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: than the Giants do, believe it or not. And that's 104 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: sad because the Jets aren't any good. But I feel 105 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: like like if you said, hey, you're a Giants fan 106 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: or Jets fan, I go. I guess I feel a 107 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: little better moving forward as a Jets fan. The Jets 108 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: just started Joe Flacco this weekend. I know. Yeah. Is 109 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: there a third option? Jets Giants or what? Read a 110 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: good Yeah? Read a good book on the week. Oh Rutgers, 111 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: who's got a more promising future Rutgers football? Yeah? But 112 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: isn't the Giant situation kind of clear? It's not murky. 113 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: They have to let their quarterback go, Daniel Jones, they 114 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,840 Speaker 1: cannot sign Squon, and they let their coach in their 115 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: GM go. It's a total rebuild now. And I think 116 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: they have two top ten draft picks. Yeah, but Joe 117 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: Judge just got there, so I don't Dave Gettlman has 118 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: been there. I can't see Dave Getleman lasting. Yeah, McLean. 119 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 1: How about I think offensive coordinator Jason Garrett could go 120 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: any day? Ouch? Yeah, they gave him the play calling duties, 121 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: but that feels I mean, there are a couple of 122 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: tenuous coaching situations. Obviously, what's happening in Chicago, they're gonna 123 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: have to fire Matt Naggie. Now here's the if he 124 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: If the Bears beat the Lions, then they have a 125 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: like ten days before their next game. You're not gonna 126 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: fire him after a win over the Lions on Thanksgiving, 127 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: but that means he stays for another ten days with 128 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: people speculating wondering Bears don't fire somebody during the season. 129 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,239 Speaker 1: But I did think about this, what if the Lions 130 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: win the game. I mean the Lions have gone toe 131 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: to toe Steelers Browns. They lost to the Ravens on 132 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: a you know, sixty six yard or whatever it was, 133 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: field goal, and there's there's no given here, Like, yeah, 134 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: Bears are winning that game. Like I don't know, even 135 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: though I'm you're starting Tim Boyle the you know, the 136 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: Lions gonna win one of these games. Yeah, mclovin, How 137 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: excited is America for Tim Boyle Andy Dalton on Thursday? 138 00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: This is the matchup we all want. Yeah, you can't 139 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: even do the promo, you know, Bears Lions, Tim Boyle, 140 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton Noon. Yeah, someone has to win. Could somebody 141 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: get fired? It's gonna be a lot of Walter Peyton 142 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 1: and Barry Sanders video flowing around these promos. Yeah, maybe 143 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: a John Madden commentary, you know, bring back one of 144 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 1: his old clips. A rivalry is old as the league game. 145 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: The tur ducking, yes, always tur ducking in there. All right, 146 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: what's poor question we have? Well, I was gonna say, 147 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 1: we've done it before. Who feels worse off the Giants 148 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: or the Jets? Although Seton made a compelling case with 149 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: his Joe Flacco line, so I put neither on who 150 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: feels worse off both? But imagine you put in Joe 151 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: Flacco because you don't want your other quarterbacks to be embarrassed. 152 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: It's basically, you know, I don't know Mike White, Yeah, 153 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 1: you had a good run. And then you know Zach Wilson. 154 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: We can't put the kid in there. Let's bringing Joe Flacco, 155 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 1: Joe out there and get him. Yeah, Seed, But if 156 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: you're Jason Garrett, aren't you like to Joe Judge Like, dude, 157 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 1: I didn't make him throw those crappy throws like I 158 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: can't not I can't help that. I can't make him 159 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: not throw the ball across his body into the middle 160 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,199 Speaker 1: of the field to one of the defensive linemen for 161 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: an interception. I can't uncoach that I didn't drift him. 162 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 1: Yeah right, he's your quarterback. Yeah, blame your GM. Yeah, McLean. 163 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 1: Can I share a he's somewhat warm? Take that will 164 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: be nowhere else? Why did Joe Flacco fall off so quickly? 165 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: He's thirty six now he's not like forty five. I 166 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:36,719 Speaker 1: don't want to get into Joe Flacco today. He was 167 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: like beating the Patriots in the playoffs a few years ago, 168 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 1: and now he's a punchline. Nobody cares. Nobody cares, Mike White, Yeah, 169 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: you're the only one that cares about backup quarterbacks. Oh yeah, 170 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: that's nobody. Nobody cares. All right, what else do we Okay, 171 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,319 Speaker 1: we have been working on this question, the most awkward 172 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: quarterback situation in this offseason. We've been trying to come 173 00:09:55,960 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: up with teams. Okay, awkward is not always bad, Like 174 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 1: the Niners is an awkward situation, but it's not. It's 175 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 1: not bad because Jimmy G's playing. Okay, you know the 176 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 1: awkward part is if Trey Lance is not the quarterback 177 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: they thought he was or think he is, then it 178 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 1: gets uncomfortable and in a different kind of awkward. Right. Okay, 179 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,719 Speaker 1: so here are some teams, Okty nine Ers, Okay, the 180 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins, Okay, New Orleans Saints, Carolina Panthers, Yeah, the Steelers. Yes, 181 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 1: do we put the Seahawks on there. No, it's not 182 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: awkward yet. It's only going to be awkward in the offseason. 183 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 1: You know, a day or two after the Super Bowl 184 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 1: when Russell Wilson comes on this show and then talks 185 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: about now he doesn't get a seat at the table. Oh, 186 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: that's right, he's already done that. This next time around, 187 00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: it would probably be just Russell wants out. Cleveland Browns 188 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: go on there. Yes, yeah, you know. The biggest thing 189 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 1: is the contract. These quarterbacks and their agents all expect 190 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: to get forty million dollars. I'm the next guy up. 191 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:18,719 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield is not worth forty million dollars, and if 192 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 1: you decide that he's not worth that, then you move 193 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: on unless you go, well, but he's worth twenty eight million. 194 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: So isn't that a weird kind of approach to this? 195 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: He's not forty but he's twenty eight million. But agents 196 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: don't want that, and more quarterbacks, I would think would 197 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: accept that and go. Do I want to leave Cleveland? 198 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe once out of Cleveland, maybe Baker's 199 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: tired of living at the stadium in all those commercials. 200 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: Here is Baker yesterday at his press conference. Baker, what 201 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 1: did you make of some of the booing there in 202 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,079 Speaker 1: the second half from the fans? Those are probably the 203 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: same fans that won't be quiet while we're on offense 204 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 1: and trying to operate. So don't really care. All right, 205 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: he could do better. You know. Part of the reason 206 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: why he's in the NFL is he's got this attitude. 207 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: Probably you know, people throughout his career said he couldn't 208 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: amount anything, wasn't going to be great, wasn't going to 209 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: get a scholarship. You know that he plays with a 210 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: chip on his shoulder, but when it comes to the fans, 211 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: you don't win. The answer is, hey, you know what, 212 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:33,319 Speaker 1: I'd probably boom me as well. Whatever it is self deprecating, 213 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: move on, Hey, I hope to turn those booze into cheer. 214 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: You can be corny, I mean, you have this colorful 215 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: playful personality with all your commercials. How about you act 216 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: like you're acting there, act in the press conference, just 217 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: go I'm gonna keep sleeping here at the stadium until 218 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: we get it right. Whatever. But you can't turn on 219 00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: the fans. You can't make it about you. He's playing hurt, 220 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 1: but he's not helping his team, and he's probably hurting 221 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 1: himself in the bigger picture the long term. The more 222 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: he plays, it feels like the less valuable he is. 223 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,959 Speaker 1: And it's not fair to him because he does want 224 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: to play. He is banged up. They got the Ravens 225 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 1: coming up. They got two games with the Ravens. I mean, 226 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 1: they got some tough games coming up, and what if 227 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: they don't make the playoffs. A lot of people had 228 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: them in the AFC title gig, but you got you 229 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: got Bengals, Packers, Ravens twice. Got a pretty tough, pretty 230 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: tough schedule coming up. They're gonna end up with nine 231 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: wins maybe ten. Yeah, I'm a club. Maybe he's grumpy 232 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 1: these fans. I mean, dude sleeps in the stadium. Maybe 233 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 1: they're keep him up and cutting in a naptime. Yeah, 234 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: he should say it. I just figured they were booming 235 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 1: the coaching steps since everything is their faults. There wasn't 236 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: us they were booming. They were booming the coaches because 237 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: they're the ones who keeps screwing this up. Remember this 238 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: was a clean break from Odell. Oh, they are better 239 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 1: without Odell. Baker's better without Odell. And then maybe maybe 240 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: maybe not, I don't know. Yeah, McLean Scene's idea was 241 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 1: maybe Baker Mayfield's a Giant next year. I don't think 242 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: that's an easy media situation. And I like it though, 243 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: And he said that we're getting ready to sit down 244 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: for the morning meeting. He goes, you know where Baker 245 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: Mayfield's going to be next year? I said, no, the Giants. 246 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: That will help. Maybe that next year, maybe the year after. 247 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: It's one of those two though, he is going to 248 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: end up being the Giants quarterback. I even tweeted it 249 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: just so I have the receipts. That's right. Adam Schefter 250 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: just confirmed it. Yeah. And then when I'll be like, 251 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: wait it happens, and I'll be like, yes, you remember 252 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: I called that. It's like, yeah, everybody saw that coming. 253 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to The Dan Patrick Show podcast.

What is going on with the Cleveland 263 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: Browns and Baker Mayfield here? Yeah? Well, I mean, you know, 264 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: I think one thing that I talk about on my 265 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: podcast or the show with Floreal Lot that just jumps 266 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: out to me after studying them. You know. The first 267 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: thing is it's we said this a little a few 268 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: weeks ago, I believe when when I was on with you. 269 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: You know, it's a run game offense. They want to 270 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: run the ball. That's what they do best. When the 271 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: pass game has to stand standalone by itself, they struggle. 272 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: You know. It's, you know a little bit because of 273 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield certainly hasn't been the best at reading the field, 274 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: been a little off target, yes, the scheme himself or 275 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: a little underwhelming where you go it's just you know, okay, 276 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 1: it's good, but it's not anything real creative. So that's 277 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: what I look at let alone. He's beat up to 278 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 1: go along with that, and I think that's where, you know, 279 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: the problem lies, in my opinion, you know, more than anything, 280 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: it's just very run game centric and it's all dependent 281 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 1: on Nick Chubb and what they do there. Yeah, but 282 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: they rush for two hundred yards against Detroit. Baker threw 283 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: two picks, they scored thirteen points. Yeah. Well, at some 284 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: point you need to be able to exactly it's got 285 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: to go back to him making a few throws, you know, 286 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 1: I chat, you know, go back watch the game. You know, 287 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: if the two interceptions are egregiously bad, you know, and 288 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: then you know, out of the I think he was 289 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: what fifteen for twenty nine or somewhere in that ballpark 290 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: as far as the stats are concerned, there's five or 291 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: six throws in the game where you go, whoa, whoa, 292 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: he missed that bad leave, you know for a fifteen 293 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five yard gain that, of course, we know, 294 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: changes field position, maybe gets you another feel goal, puts 295 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 1: more pressure on Detroit. Those are the things that start 296 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 1: to you know, funnel towards a blowout or a dominant win, 297 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 1: and when you don't take advantage of those opportunities, you 298 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: let a lesser team hang around. And that's exactly kind 299 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: of what happened. We spend a little bit of time 300 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: starting the show talking about the Giants that they have 301 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 1: no identity here. Daniel Jones to me, doesn't feel like 302 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 1: a starting quarterback. He's got a lot of athletic ability, 303 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: but he makes bad decisions. Sae Quon Barkley, You're not 304 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 1: going to sign him up to a second contract. I 305 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: got a GM who's probably in limbo here, a coach 306 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: who's trying to channel Bill Belichick without having Tom Brady. 307 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,479 Speaker 1: What where did the Giants go from here? Yeah, they 308 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: got a lot of issues. I mean, you said it, 309 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, I'm a little bit of a 310 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 1: defender of Joe Judge I am, you know. First off, like, 311 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: I don't have the same feeling I did with Pat 312 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: Shermer Ben McAdoo where I saw one year and I 313 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: was like, whoa that they're they're in over their heads. 314 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 1: Seal later, let's go to the next guy. You No, 315 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: I don't this one. I look at a little bit 316 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: differently to where, Hey, they I think exceeded expectations a 317 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: little bit last year. With how they played this year, yeah, 318 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: it's been a little underwhelming. But I also sit there 319 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: and just go, you know, it's hard to win football 320 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: games in the NFL when you have maybe the worst 321 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: offensive line in football. You know, that's the first thing 322 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 1: I would say. There's problems throughout their roster. No great 323 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: pass rusher, no no athletic middle linebackers that can you 324 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 1: know that translate to the modern day NFL. As far 325 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: as like staying on the field covering running backs, covering 326 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 1: tight ends, they don't have that. You know, they overpaid 327 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,199 Speaker 1: guys like James Bradberry at corner. They pay him like 328 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: he's a shutdown Stefan Gillard, Gilmore, Jalen Ramsey, Gayle Alexander type. 329 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 1: That's not true. You know, that hasn't happened, you know. 330 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 1: So I think there's just a lot of things I 331 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: look at throughout the roster where I just go, yeah, 332 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,880 Speaker 1: it doesn't give them a fighting chance on a week 333 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 1: to week basis. Let alone, You're right, say quon his 334 00:18:55,720 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 1: injury history, Daniel Jones hasn't played his best paid any 335 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 1: Gala day, like he's supposed to be, like one of 336 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: the best receivers in football. They overpaid for that. That 337 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:11,120 Speaker 1: didn't work, you know, Trade Odell Beckham Junior, get Jabrill Peppers. Okay, 338 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: that's okay, nothing special there. They traded away that. I mean, 339 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: they cut Zeitler or traded him to the Ravens in 340 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: the off season. So I just look at the roster 341 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: as being the number one issue with the Giants, let 342 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: alone some other things sprinkling them to go along with it. 343 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: But you had these standalone games, and after a standalone games, 344 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: that means everybody there, it's fully full exposure. Everybody's got 345 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: an opinion on Tom Brady and the Buccaneers. Everybody's got 346 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: an opinion on the Giants as well. Are the Buccaneers 347 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 1: the best team in the NFC? Oh? I think when 348 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,400 Speaker 1: they're gonna be at full health, you know, and they're 349 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: getting close to that. I have a hard time arguing that, 350 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 1: I do. You know. I think it's Sean Murphy bunting 351 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 1: being back last night and they get Carlton Davis back 352 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 1: in a few weeks. I believe that's gonna help Vita Vella. Hey, 353 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 1: they dodged a bullet by him not being out for 354 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 1: the year. You know, we see the Gronk effect when 355 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: he gets back in the lineup. He's such an issue 356 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,199 Speaker 1: to deal with because he's like having an extra tackle 357 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,159 Speaker 1: in the run game. Let alone. We know he's awesome 358 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 1: in the past game to go along with that. So yes, 359 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 1: I think when the Bucks are healthy and all the 360 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 1: stars aligned, they're the most dangerous complete football team in 361 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,640 Speaker 1: the NFC. There's no doubt about that. Let's go through 362 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: the awkward quarterbacking situations, and awkward doesn't mean it's bad. 363 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 1: New York is bad, but what we have like San Francisco, 364 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: that's an awkward situation because Jimmy g is a better 365 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 1: quarterback than Trey Lance right now, but Trey Lance is 366 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: their future. How does that? How do they solve that? 367 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: They're they're gonna, I mean, they're gonna have to see 368 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: how the rest of this year plays out, and I 369 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: think that's the first thing. And then as they're doing that, 370 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 1: evaluate Trey Lance and his progress and see where he's 371 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: at with this whole situation as well. He's raw, as 372 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: as we've seen. We knew that coming out, you know, 373 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 1: in the draft, we saw it in the Arizona game 374 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,159 Speaker 1: where he got to play a few weeks ago. You know, 375 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: there's some wow plays, but the ball, it's sprays all 376 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: over the place at times. He doesn't know how to 377 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: take care of himself. He's running around like it's North 378 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 1: Dakota State there. You know, that one, to me still 379 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: has the chance to be very dicey, Dan, It really does, 380 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 1: because I think the forty nine ers end up being 381 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: a player here in the NFC. I do, now that 382 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 1: they're healthy. Shanahan seems got his groove back a little bit, 383 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: kittles back, the way they're using Deebo Samuel, They've gotten 384 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: Brandon i Yuk out of the funk. You know. The 385 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: defenses is I'm not gonna say like the Super Bowl 386 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,880 Speaker 1: year defense, but still good. A top ten defense in football. 387 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: And yeah, I do wonder because I expect them to 388 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:47,920 Speaker 1: make the playoffs, and they get in the playoffs in 389 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 1: the NFC, it's crazy. Yeah, I think there's just about 390 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 1: as good as anybody there other than maybe the Bucks. 391 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: So where I look at that and go, man, that Shanahan. 392 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: You know, good thing he's getting paid a lot of 393 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 1: money because he's gonna have some tough things a deal 394 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: with in the off season. Okay, some of the other 395 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: awkward quarterbacking situations. I'm going to throw the Dolphins in there, right. 396 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 1: I think the Saints is an awkward It feels like 397 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: they have three quarterbacks, but they don't have one quarterback. 398 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:18,400 Speaker 1: The Panthers cam nice reunion tour. You're paying Sam Darnold 399 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 1: next year. The Seahawks if they don't make the playoffs, 400 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: and Russell Wilson does he want to stay, does Pete 401 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 1: Carroll want to stay? Or whatever happens there. The Steelers 402 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 1: with Ben could he play just good enough to go? Hey, 403 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: I think I'll come back for another year. And then 404 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: you got the Cleveland Browns. So out of all of those, 405 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: what one is more interesting to you? Oh? They're all good. 406 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: I think Steelers in Big Ben this will be at period. 407 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be a player. Their teams ready 408 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 1: to win now. I think they'll be a player for 409 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 1: one of the Watson Rogers, Russell Wilson, whoever comes available. 410 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: That's the way I'm gonna throw that out there. Seattle 411 00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: is the most interesting a little bit, just because of 412 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: the whole situation, you know, yeah, you know, from the 413 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 1: things I know about Russell Wilson, things he said to 414 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 1: people I know that I trust in the NFL in 415 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: the off season. I think a lot of signs point 416 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,879 Speaker 1: towards him, like saying, ce later, Seattle, I'm out of 417 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 1: here after this year, and I wonder just what happens 418 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: in Seattle altogether. I mean, of course it's been a 419 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: great run, but they're borderline like we might have to 420 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: blow up the team here. You know. That's they've been 421 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 1: putting band aids on things for the last few years. 422 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: You know, nothing great on the offensive line. You know, 423 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: running backs okay, solid, he got two receivers, No great 424 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 1: defensive lineman, nobody that jumps out. You know, Jamal Adams 425 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: hasn't worked out to the capacity I think they wanted to. 426 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 1: And they got no good cover corners. There's a lot 427 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 1: of issues there. So I think I look at Seattle 428 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 1: maybe and probably the Miami situation as being the one 429 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 1: that I look at to be the most interesting, Like 430 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: Cleveland with Baker Mayfield, Dan you know, they got a 431 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 1: little leeway here. I mean, I think we said this 432 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: a few weeks ago. First off, why would you overpay him? 433 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 1: What is he done right now to say, oh, we 434 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: got to get the contract done. No one's gonna be 435 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,120 Speaker 1: beaten down the door for Baker Mayfield and free agency, 436 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: and you got the fifth year option, you know, as 437 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: far as that flexibility is concerned as well. So I 438 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 1: think he's there at least for now. But that Miami 439 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 1: Seattle situation very interesting. We're talking to Chris Sims, Pro 440 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: Football Talk Live co host. You can also see him 441 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: on Football Night in America. I'm curious if Jonathan Taylor 442 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 1: can do enough to sneak in and win an MVP, 443 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 1: because it feels like we don't have a legitimate front 444 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: runner for the MVP. Yeah, what would Jonathan Taylor have 445 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:40,239 Speaker 1: to do to win the MVP? I think that you know, 446 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,479 Speaker 1: obviously lead the league in rushing and have a number 447 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 1: that like wows you. I think that's the first thing, like, 448 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 1: you know, not that it has to be two thousand, 449 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: but if he gets up there to that seventeen eighteen 450 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 1: hundred mark, you know, gets to like right now, I 451 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 1: think he's at what thirteen touchdowns maybe even more adding 452 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 1: the run game. I'm trying to look at my stats 453 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: here as I'm talking to you, Like, he's got to 454 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: get somewhere in the twenty. The twenty areas paced for 455 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: twenty and he's unpaced for a little over sixteen hundred yards. 456 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: Yeah enough if they Yeah, he needs a little more, 457 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 1: to me, like it needs to be eighteen. He needs 458 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: another two hundred yard rushing game to be thrown in 459 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 1: there and another three or four touchdown performance along with 460 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: them making the playoffs and him obviously being the marquee 461 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,920 Speaker 1: player there. And I think also to say it's enough, 462 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: he needs maybe one of the few of these quarterbacks 463 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 1: again to kind of just fall on their face a 464 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 1: little bit, a little bit here and there, and you know, 465 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: he needs a hope Brady throws another few interceptions and 466 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 1: Stafford continues to stumble, then he can do it. But 467 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 1: it is a very odd year and very wide open. 468 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 1: From that that standpoint, I mean, the NFL is crazy 469 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:52,360 Speaker 1: this year. It's crazy as as I can ever remember. 470 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 1: But I don't know who the leading candidate is. You know, 471 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: I thought if Dak had a big game in Kansas City, 472 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 1: then he might rise above Aaron Ryers was great, but 473 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,919 Speaker 1: they lost that game. Yeah, I'm gonna hold it against 474 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 1: him that he missed the Kansas City game. Uh, you know, 475 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: Josh Allen has not played well. Brady's been up and down, 476 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 1: back to back losses, Tyler Murray's been out. So I know, 477 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 1: I know it's crazy it is, you know, I look 478 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 1: at like one guy. I mean, you know, it's gonna 479 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: end up being a quarterback. I think if you made 480 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 1: me bet right now, the way it is and way 481 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 1: the team looks, it's gonna end up being Brady. That's 482 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: the way I look at it, you know, especially if 483 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: they get Antonio Brown back. You know, I just think 484 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: they've got too many weapons and as long as they 485 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,199 Speaker 1: can protect him, just like we saw last night, he 486 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 1: just can dice you up as as good as anybody 487 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 1: in the game. They got a good system, they're creative, 488 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: he's got mismatches everywhere. That'd be the guy i'd probably 489 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 1: say right now, but you know I am. I'm rooting for, 490 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,160 Speaker 1: like Jonathan Tayo a little bit to make this interesting, 491 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 1: no doubt about it. The other guy that I think 492 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: is like you, no, not a quarterback, but needs to 493 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: be quietly in this discussion as well. If you want 494 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 1: to just say what MVP means to me, would be 495 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel with the forty nine ers. That's another guy. 496 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 1: I know it's like, but man, he leads the league 497 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: and leads the team in receiving. He's one of the 498 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: best receivers in football. And now I got him playing 499 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: damn tailback too. He's the best tailback on the team. 500 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: You know, he is the MVP of their team for sure. 501 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 1: And if they continue to make some crazy rise and 502 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,880 Speaker 1: he continues to have these crazy stat lines, I'll throw 503 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 1: him out there. But I'm gonna get Brady the yet 504 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: right now. The Mannings last night talked about you don't 505 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 1: blitz Brady. I mean that's not you know, that enlightening 506 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 1: because Kurt Warner has talked about that too. He wanted 507 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 1: you to blitz. But teams still blitz. You know, Brady 508 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 1: gets the rid of the ball so quick. Why why 509 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: do teams blitz some of these quarterbacks who were more 510 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 1: in the pocket stationary quarterbacks. Yeah, well, you know, you 511 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: gotta be careful, and Brady's one you got to be 512 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: careful about blitzing, you know, certainly, you know he knows 513 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: where to go with the football. He's you know, he's 514 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: been in two you know, offensive systems that have answers 515 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,120 Speaker 1: for the blitzes too. You know, some of these quarterbacks 516 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: don't have answers. They're just like, hey, blitz, just throw 517 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: it real quick to the hot route guy right there. 518 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: And it's like, well, yeah, the other team knows you're 519 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 1: gonna throw it too quick to the hot route guy too. 520 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: It's not always open, you know, you gotta have protection answers, 521 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 1: you know, other rules within the protections and routes that 522 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 1: kind of combat those issues. But yeah, Brady's gonna dice 523 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 1: up the blitz if you're too. Obviously, it just has 524 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 1: to be a smattering of blitzes. And to me, it's 525 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: the illusion of pressure and blitz that gets Brady. Like 526 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 1: if you watch the Washington in the Saints game a 527 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: little bit, Dan, you know, and I know you did. 528 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to say you didn't, but they it's 529 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: a lot of way. You know, two guys blitz over here, 530 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: but two guys drop out over here. So now it's 531 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: a little like, wait, am I protected? Did I get 532 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: guys in the right place? Wait? Now I gotta get 533 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: my eyes down field? What the hell coverage are they playing? That? 534 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 1: To me is what you do to Brady, Unlike what 535 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: the Giants did last night, who have no pass rusher 536 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: and then played very vanilla on the back, you know, 537 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: to where he could just dice them up. But yeah, 538 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: you got to have a special front four, and I 539 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: think the illusion of complexity and pressure just to fluster 540 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 1: him a little bit. I just don't see a reason 541 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: why Brady is going to retire anytime soon. No way. 542 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 1: I'm with you. Why would you leave that team? I mean, yes, 543 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 1: he's still throwing lasers all over the football field, and 544 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: he knows how to protect himself, and he's got a 545 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: team that's they're set up to dominate the NFC at 546 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 1: least for the next two or three years. So I'm 547 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 1: with you. Enjoy the Tampa Son, enjoy the house that 548 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: Chris Simms built for him, and just kind of go 549 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 1: from there.

You know, 552 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 1: they might not have like the wealth to always have, 553 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: you know, season tickets sold out all the time and 554 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: everything like that, but man, do they love football. You know, 555 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: it's borderline se country up there in Tampa as you 556 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: get the northern Florida and they love their bucks.

But you know it's 612 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: one of those where you're some actors are known for 613 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: a role and then you try to escape the role 614 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: a little bit or try to do something different.

My first movie was a movie Something Wild, 617 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 1: and I played a mediac and I would read and 618 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 1: I didn't get it. Till I was thirty years old. 619 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 1: That's what I did my first movie. Uh. I forgot 620 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 1: the question again about you try to distance yourself from 621 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 1: you know. So after something Wild, I did the movie 622 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: Dominic in You Jamee with Tom Holt, which was a 623 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: beautiful I was a medical uh student. I had to 624 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: move to Stanford but my brother who was brain damage 625 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:09,240 Speaker 1: and we find out later that was because of physical abuse, 626 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 1: but I had to leave. It was a really beautiful story. 627 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: And in Field of Dreams, I didn't like hit Kevin 628 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 1: with the bat, that was a nice one. I did 629 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:26,280 Speaker 1: a couple of Muppet movie sou What kind of athlete 630 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: were you? I was okay. I played soccer and basketball, 631 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 1: but the soccer I think I was better at. But 632 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 1: I never just went to a high school and that 633 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 1: was it. Did you audition for Field of Dreams? No? No, 634 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,880 Speaker 1: I think they just brought me in and I think 635 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 1: it was just an out and out offer. I think 636 00:34:56,000 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 1: how long were you in Iowa? Did you see? You 637 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 1: must have seen the game that they played on the field. 638 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 1: That was beautiful.

I mean, 645 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 1: obviously it's all Good Fellas, maybe a couple others, but 646 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: in general, I probably have more movies that I haven't seen. 647 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 1: But can you watch now that you're further removed from it? 648 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: Watch the watch a movie, yeah that you're in.
