Ti rack dot com the way tire buying 9 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 2: should be. You know, it was a little surreal coming 10 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:37,520 Speaker 2: in today here, Carrie, because I'm listening to Chris and 11 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 2: Arnie and all I'm hearing is over and over and 12 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 2: over again they are saying the name Hartman, Hartman, Hartman, Hartman. 13 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 3: Music to my. 14 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,319 Speaker 2: Ears, by the way, But of course they're referring to 15 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 2: Sam Hartman, who, after I don't know ten years in 16 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 2: college football, continues on at Notre Dame. 17 00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 3: He was the wake. 18 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 2: Forest quarterback over a five years span, and now he 19 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 2: is the quarterback in Notre Dame. We're at halftime right now. 20 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 2: This game is being played in Dublin, Ireland, and Notre 21 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,479 Speaker 2: Dame is leading Navy by a score of twenty eight 22 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 2: to nothing. So Kerry, again, I'm not going to be biased. 23 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 2: This guy has some amazing credentials. Almost thirteen thousand passing 24 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 2: yards in his time at Wake Forest, one hundred and 25 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,480 Speaker 2: ten touchdown passes. If he has a huge year and 26 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 2: Notre Dame is undefeated, you know he's going to be 27 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 2: in the Heisman Chase. I cannot say I won't vote 28 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 2: a Hartman, Oh my God, to win the most valued 29 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 2: trophy in all of sports. 30 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 3: That's betrayal coming from coming from you, that really is betrayal. 31 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 3: I know he has your last name. Yeah, I know 32 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 3: he could be your son, yes, around your son's your 33 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 3: son's age. He is. 34 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 2: Actually, my sons are soon to be twenty seven and 35 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 2: twenty five, and he's twenty four, so he could be 36 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 2: my youngest son. 37 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 3: He's twenty four going on thirty. Yeah, and he's close. 38 00:01:58,320 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 4: You know. 39 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 3: He reminds me of right now, I get the Stetson 40 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 3: Bennett thing right, Yes, where Stetson was the older, the 41 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 3: older statesman, six year guy, you know what I mean. Yeah, 42 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 3: he had his up and downs early on, Yeah, came on, 43 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 3: won a championship, play really well, and now he's having 44 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 3: the blossoming career in the NFL. It looks like as well, 45 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,079 Speaker 3: so I can kind of see that with Hartman as well. 46 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 2: Sam Hartman, Sam, but you see the problem is it's 47 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 2: Notre Dame and I and I, you know, I grew 48 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 2: up disliking Notre I don't want to. 49 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 3: Use the word hate, all right, I'll use it. 50 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: You use it yet, because I you know, I was 51 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 2: raised a Trojan, My dad went to USC became a Bruin. 52 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 2: And so my disdain for Notre Dame not that I 53 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 2: don't admire and acknowledge the fact that you can't write 54 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 2: the history of college football obviously without starting with Notre Dame. 55 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: It is the most legendary program as far as college 56 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 2: football is concerned. But no, I mean, think about this opportunity, 57 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 2: not just for Sam Hartman, but for Notre Dame to 58 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,639 Speaker 2: be able to bring in a quarterback with this kind 59 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 2: of experience, even if it's a one year deal and 60 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 2: we're seeing it in this game. 61 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 3: I was gonna play dividends for sure. Notre Dan's one 62 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 3: of those teams where you know, you get you get 63 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 3: the coach, you get Freeman coming in and he's a 64 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 3: defensive guy. He's writing the ship there and they play 65 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 3: really well defensively, but offensively, they had their problems, their 66 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 3: struggles last year. So you're bringing a guy like Hartman 67 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 3: who can come in and steady the ship. And you 68 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 3: like to hear Hartman Hartman, don't It is just music 69 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 3: to my ear. 70 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 2: And by the way, I know he can't be actual 71 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 2: related because this kid has got this full black beard. 72 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:29,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right. 73 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 2: And myself, my dad, my grandfather, my son's very sparse 74 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 2: in terms of I could never I could dream of 75 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,119 Speaker 2: that kind of facial hair, but it's never gonna. 76 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 3: Well, like I said, I think before we came on there, 77 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 3: I want to eventually, you know, put a bet out 78 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 3: there and see what happens. Well, you know, it'll be 79 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 3: a friendly bet, but I want to see what that 80 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 3: scruff looks like. I want to see how. 81 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 2: Is anyone seeing Keanu Reeves and whatever that is on 82 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 2: his face, that scruffy, patchy beard. That would be exactly 83 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 2: how my beard would look, which is awful, by the way, 84 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 2: let's think it. 85 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 3: It is awful, but you'll be known as the Matrix 86 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 3: and so that's pretty cool too. I mean, it's just awful, 87 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 3: but that's pretty much how it look. 88 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 2: You know. This twenty twenty three college football season carry 89 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 2: is really one for the books. Because everything changes next year. 90 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 2: I mean everything changes next year. This is the last 91 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 2: year of the Pac twelve. This is the last year 92 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 2: of the Big Ten and the SEC and the Big 93 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,679 Speaker 2: twelve as we have known it. It is the last 94 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 2: year of the four school playoff. I mean, so much 95 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,239 Speaker 2: is going to go out the window after this season. 96 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 2: Next year, obviously all the schools are moving Texas Oklahoma 97 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 2: to the SEC, the four Pac twelve schools moving into 98 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 2: the Big Ten, the rest of the Pac twelve pretty 99 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 2: much moving into either the Big Twelve, or we'll see 100 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,359 Speaker 2: what happens with Callan Stanford moving too the ACC. And 101 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 2: then of course next year we'll have a twelve school 102 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 2: play which will be the first legitimate playoff we've ever 103 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 2: really had in Division one college football. But it just 104 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: seems like a lame duck seasons. It's really hard for me. 105 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 2: And what's frustrating as a Pac twelve guy is that 106 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: this is a good year for the Pac twelve. Yeah, 107 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 2: Like they have USC, Utah, Washington, Oregon, Oregon State best 108 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: defense by far in this conference. It could be a 109 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 2: blaze of glory for the final season of the Pac twelve. 110 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 3: I think that's what we need to look at and 111 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 3: what you said, I mean Oregon State. They've always been 112 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 3: you know, competitive, and they have their you know, their 113 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 3: moments in the in the Pac twelve. But it's gonna 114 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 3: be interesting to see how that holds up because the 115 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 3: Pac twelve historically would be I would see it as 116 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 3: an offensive offensive league, right, so to see if the 117 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 3: offense can pan out and be the dominating force or 118 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 3: will it be defense. And I think as far as 119 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 3: the overall season, let's just appreciate it. I know so 120 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 3: many people have their ideas and you know, their rhetoric 121 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 3: on you know, college football moving forward. But yeah, I 122 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 3: think the fact that we know this is it. Let's 123 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 3: just sit back and enjoy it because I love it 124 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 3: so much too. 125 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,479 Speaker 2: The arguments when people make the argument that what you're 126 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 2: destroying with all these changes in the landscape of college 127 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: football is the rivalries. That rivalries make college sports special, right, 128 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 2: And this goes back to Yale and Harvard I mean, 129 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 2: and Princeton, I mean the earliest days. It's ironic in 130 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 2: the late nineteenth century when college football was morphine from 131 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,359 Speaker 2: rugby into you know, the beginning to the football that 132 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 2: we now know. Long obviously before there was any professional football. 133 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 2: The reason it really took root is that Harvard and 134 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 2: Yale and Princeton, those three IVY League schools, realized that 135 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 2: it was a great recruiting tool for students. They each 136 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 2: were battling to get the top students into their university 137 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: and football. And by the way, there were casualties, deaths, 138 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 2: stuff like that, you know, no problems. You know, the 139 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 2: presidents were a little edgy because they're like, wait, we're 140 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 2: trying to bring the breast minds into our school. Why 141 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 2: are we putting them out there on this football field. 142 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 2: Literally they're getting maimed and killed. But that's what it 143 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 2: was all about. And so when we go forward one 144 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty years to where we are today, we 145 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 2: college football, really nothing has changed. You know, I saw 146 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 2: I don't know, did you see the Johnny Manziel feature 147 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 2: that recently, And they talked about how much money that 148 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 2: Heisman Trophy season for Johnny Manziel meant for that university, 149 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: like hundreds of millions of dollars. So when we talk 150 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 2: about the frustration that they're chasing the money, of course 151 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 2: they're chasing the money. Yes, there's a lot at stake 152 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 2: when you go to these universities. When I go to 153 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 2: UCLA or USC here in the Los Angeles area and 154 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 2: see how much those campuses have changed over the last 155 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 2: twenty thirty forty years, where all that money come. 156 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 3: From exactly the student athletes. Those games, Those games mean 157 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 3: a lot. And you know, a collegiate athlete is myself 158 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 3: and playing at like a university as Louisville where we've 159 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 3: talked about before, a basketball school. Yeah, but then you 160 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 3: come in and start having success on the football field 161 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 3: as well, and start bringing in money, and you see 162 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 3: these drastic changes, and you're like, all right, somebody's getting paid. 163 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 2: And how much money you think Lamar Jackson's heisman for that, 164 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 2: Oh man, a lot? Just putting that Heisman trophy on display, 165 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 2: A lot. 166 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 3: It's on display. You go to the stadium, Now they 167 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 3: have VIP seats. I'm like, whoa wait, wait, wait a minute. 168 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 3: We were playing at old Cardinal Stadium where it was 169 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 3: a hazard to even play. So now it's to see, 170 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 3: you know, not only the cheap seats, but the expensive 171 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 3: seats right there on the ground. Having that experience, it's 172 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 3: just it's mind blowing. 173 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, you see stadiums either being expanded, right 174 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 2: you know, one hundred thousand seed stadiums. There's more than 175 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 2: a dozen now and there are full every single game. 176 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 2: So I mean, for me, week zero is Week one 177 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 2: because it is college football and I am looking forward 178 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 2: to this college football season to see how it plays out. 179 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 2: We have a lot of NFL news we got to 180 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 2: get to today, Carrie, I want to just start with 181 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 2: this story that broke earlier today. Josh Jacobs does sign 182 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 2: a one year deal with the Raiders. By the way, 183 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 2: the Miami Dolphins, who are in the running apparently for 184 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 2: Jonathan Taylor, were inquiring about Josh Jacobs, and the Raiders 185 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 2: pretty much made it clear they were not interested in 186 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 2: trading Josh Jacobs. Now, had they reneged on their franchise tag, 187 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 2: he technically would have been a free agent, which really 188 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 2: would have been a nightmare for the Raiders. But he 189 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,199 Speaker 2: signs a one year deal for twelve million dollars and 190 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 2: Mark Davis, the owner of the Raiders, was praising Josh 191 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 2: or being a great guy and everything else. I mean, 192 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 2: I don't know why they're playing around with this because, 193 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 2: as I said, this guy led the NFL rushing the 194 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,839 Speaker 2: year ago. He had over sixteen hundred yards rushing the 195 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 2: second most rushing yards last year by a Raiders running 196 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 2: back had sixty six. 197 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's crazy. 198 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 2: So that's that's a little bit of a drop up 199 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 2: that wasn't the backup player. That's a good news for 200 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 2: him that he is now a Raider once again. 201 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel good about that signing. I mean for 202 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 3: the Raiders obviously bringing in car and having somebody lead that, 203 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 3: you know, lead that offense. Garoppolo sorry, bringing in Garoppolo, 204 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 3: a guy that can come in and steady your ship 205 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 3: and have a running game on top of that where 206 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 3: he can have some play action passes and be able 207 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 3: to hit some deep balls and not have to put 208 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 3: it all on his shoulders. But was obviously huge for them, 209 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 3: the fact that they're playing around with it. The guy 210 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:32,959 Speaker 3: like him. I think Jacobs is a is the best 211 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 3: back in the league right now. I feel that way obviously, 212 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 3: Jonathan Taylor, I mean, that's that's an anomaly if he plays. 213 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,439 Speaker 3: He's always been that guy in his years that he's 214 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 3: been there. But I really think Josh Jacobs is a 215 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,839 Speaker 3: really good back, complete back, a guy that can block, 216 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 3: guy that can take pressure off a guy like I 217 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 3: said Garoppolo, who we know when the lowd gets big 218 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 3: for him, it's it's kind of dicey. So to see 219 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 3: him sign and to see him get in there and 220 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 3: make some money, I was happy for him, all right. 221 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 2: Well, on the other side, I want to get into 222 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 2: the domino effect that Jonathan Taylor in a trade may 223 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 2: make not just for the Colts, but also the team 224 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 2: that actually acquires them. 225 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 3: This is Fox Sports Saturday.

Take it 276 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 2: on San Jose State. But Carrie, right now, we're talking 277 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 2: a little NFL football now that Josh Jacobs has signed 278 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,839 Speaker 2: the one year deal, Saquon Barkley signed with the Giants. 279 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 2: Of course, Dalvin Cook is now in New York jet. 280 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 2: The only unfinished business at got his contract sweetened a 281 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,560 Speaker 2: little bit with the Chargers is the Jonathan Taylor situation. 282 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 2: And this is why this is so curious for me. 283 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 2: Right now with the Colts, Anthony Richardson is playing a 284 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 2: lot in this preseason. In fact, I believe he's actually 285 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 2: thrown for more passing yards than any other quarterbacks so far. 286 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 2: Completion percentage isn't good, but I mean, they're trying to 287 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 2: get as many reps in with this kid because they're 288 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 2: going to put him. 289 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 3: In day one. 290 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 2: Imagine an Indianapolis Colts offense with a very raw, talented 291 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 2: young quarterback minus Jonathan Taylor. 292 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not gonna look well at all. And I 293 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 3: think the I think that's why Jonathan Taylor is ready 294 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 3: to get out of there as well. He sees the 295 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 3: rebuilding process happening right in front of him. His better 296 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 3: days are right now, and he needs to play right 297 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 3: now with the team that has a chance to win 298 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,119 Speaker 3: and compete. Especially for him, he's already had the individual accolades, 299 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 3: most of them, and so he wants to win. And 300 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 3: you can see that he's a guy that you get 301 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 3: the sense that it matters to him, and so going 302 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 3: to a team where he can compete and have a 303 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 3: chance to win is probably number one on his mind. 304 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 3: And going through a rebuilt process with the guy who's 305 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 3: raw and the guy that they know isn't ready to 306 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 3: get the job done yet doesn't really suit him well 307 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 3: right now? 308 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 2: Well, okay, I'm going to make a comparison to Lamar 309 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 2: Jackson with the Ravens. 310 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 3: Ok. 311 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 2: So, he comes in and Joe Flacco has been the quarterback, 312 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 2: and it's obvious they want to change the offense. But 313 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 2: when Lamar Jackson took over as the starting quarterback of 314 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 2: the Ravens, they already had a. 315 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 3: Strong running game. 316 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 2: Yes, and so his style as they developed him into 317 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 2: a more sophisticated NFL throwing quarterback utilizing his legs, especially 318 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 2: his rookie season, they already had an offense geared to 319 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 2: the run, but they had talent at running back. Yes, 320 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 2: if you take Jonathan Taylor away from this Colts offense 321 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 2: and you're looking at Anthony Richardson to do his thing. 322 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 2: And by the way, Lamar Jackson was a three year 323 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 2: starter at Louisville. 324 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, the comparison is not the same. But I 325 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 3: know what you're making. 326 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 2: I mean, if you look at Lamar Jackson's passing stats 327 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 2: his junior or the year after he. 328 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 3: Won the Heissman. 329 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 2: By the way, he finished third nights when that year 330 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 2: you could see the progress he had made throwing the football. Yes, 331 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson had one year at Florida completing fifty four 332 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 2: percent of his passes. Right, I mean if there's no balance, 333 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, I understand the kind of athlete 334 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 2: he is, and I know he can run the football 335 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 2: and everything else, but he'll get killed if they don't 336 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 2: have some kind of balance in that offense. 337 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 3: Oh, I agree, but that's at a detriment to someone else, 338 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 3: and the detriment would be to Jonathan Taylor, right, Because 339 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 3: what you're saying is one hundred percent true, inaccurate. If 340 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 3: he's Jonathan. If Jonathan Taylor is there, they're going to 341 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 3: run him into the ground. They're gonna use him a lot. 342 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 3: And so to have no real, you know, big productivity 343 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 3: coming there that's equating to win just wouldn't make sense 344 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:15,400 Speaker 3: for him. And so I see the barades of carries 345 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 3: that he would get this year with the first year 346 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 3: quarterback like Anthony Richardson at the helm. So doesn't make 347 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:22,479 Speaker 3: sense for Jonathan Taylor. It would make sense for their 348 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,479 Speaker 3: team to have him there for sure, but long term, 349 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 3: like I said, Jonathan Taylor's time is now and he 350 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 3: needs to go to a place where we can win. 351 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 2: AFC's is getting really interested. 352 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 3: It's going to be interesting. Okay. 353 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 2: So your former team, the Jets, we've been again watching 354 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 2: Hard Knocks and everything that's going on there. 355 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 3: It's been a mixed bag. 356 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 2: I mean, they didn't look particularly good in that last 357 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 2: preseason game and you could tell that, you know, again 358 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 2: that sense of urgency that they're trying to you know, 359 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 2: Salah's trying to get everyone on the page. Forget the hype, 360 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 2: forget the hype. Okay, forget these cameras here. We have 361 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 2: got to play better if we want to get to 362 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 2: our our preseason goal. But you look at the Jets 363 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 2: and adding Dalvin Cook obviously is a huge boost of 364 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 2: their offense. Imagine the Miami Dolphins adding countering the Jets 365 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 2: by adding Seonathan Taylor. 366 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, that would be That would be scary. It would 367 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,439 Speaker 3: be scary. I can't can't sit here and lie and 368 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 3: act like that would be okay with that. I wouldn't 369 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 3: be okay with that. So Jonathan Taylor, if you're listening, 370 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 3: please please stick it out and stay with the Colts. 371 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 3: And you know, Mold and really shape Anthony Richardson to 372 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 3: you know, be the best version of themselves with you 373 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,119 Speaker 3: in the back field, because if Miami comes into play, 374 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 3: that would be scary because you get to take some 375 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 3: pressure off of Tua so he doesn't get hit as well, 376 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 3: and with the weapons they have already, it's that would 377 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 3: be scary. Well. 378 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 2: I think back to the Colts back in the day 379 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 2: when they dumped Marshall fall, but they also brought an 380 00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 2: edge James. See, they replace one running back, hall of Famer, 381 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 2: well another Hall of Fame running back would develop any 382 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 2: young quarterback Peyton Manning, who obviously his experience was far 383 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 2: greater than anything Anthony Richardson had at Florida, and they 384 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 2: didn't miss at all. I mean, it was a huge 385 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 2: deal for both teams because they got a young running 386 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 2: back in there and Edger and James who was part 387 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 2: of that growth process for the Colts. And obviously the 388 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 2: Rams benefited incredibly by getting and winning a Super Bowl. 389 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,360 Speaker 2: So I don't see it that way. I mean, if 390 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,919 Speaker 2: they were to trade Jonathan Taylor, that's a win lose. 391 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 2: I mean, that's a huge win for the Miami Dolphins. Oh, yes, 392 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 2: for sure, huge win. I mean, we know top five, 393 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 2: How good is Jonathan Taylor, we know what he did 394 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:43,959 Speaker 2: at Wisconsin, we know what he's done in the end. 395 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 3: How good is he? Oh, it's when I said Josh 396 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,679 Speaker 3: Jacobs earlier. I mean it would be one A, one 397 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 3: B or two to one a's they're both right up there. 398 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,719 Speaker 3: I think Jonathan Taylor obviously he's had the most success 399 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 3: between those two. But when I see Josh Jacobs, I 400 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 3: see guy that's kind of turned the corner on the injuries. 401 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 3: He's not getting injured now and he's protecting his body 402 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 3: and taking care of himself, and he's given them, given 403 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 3: himself a chance to be productive the way that he 404 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 3: can be. I've seen him since he was playing his 405 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 3: collegiate days, and you know, I would have saw him 406 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 3: and saw Jonathan Taylor at the same time in college 407 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 3: and thought Jacob would be the better back. So to 408 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 3: kind of see that come to fruition for me has 409 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 3: been cool. But Jonathan Taylor is one of the best 410 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 3: backs in the league. And it's not even it's it's 411 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 3: Josh Jacobs, it's Jonathan Taylor. It's you know, the one 412 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 3: in Tennessee, Derek Henry. And it's not many others that 413 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 3: are up there in that top echelon of guys. 414 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 2: Well, and you're talking about guys that can carry twenty 415 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 2: five times a game, right, you know, And that's that's 416 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 2: a rarity to these days. 417 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. 418 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,639 Speaker 2: I think back to Jonathan Taylor. He was one of 419 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 2: those guys because he was an immediate dominant back of 420 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 2: Wisconsin as freshman year he was he was one of 421 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 2: running backs. There have been running backs and you can 422 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 2: go all the way back to the Herschel Walker days. 423 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 2: They could have come into the NFL after. 424 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 3: Their freshman year. Oh for sure. I mean, just you know, 425 00:20:59,440 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 3: for sure. 426 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,479 Speaker 2: You know, why are you wasting another six hundred carries 427 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 2: at the college level when you couldn't do it at 428 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 2: the pro level. But you know the thing about when 429 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,199 Speaker 2: we look at the NFL right now and this running 430 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 2: back controversy and this off season with running backs complaining 431 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 2: and trying to get together and trying to force owners 432 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 2: to pay him more money, I think when it's all 433 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 2: said and done, we're gonna look and there's gonna be 434 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 2: some huge seasons for running backs this year. 435 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 3: Oh they're gonna be angry. Yeah, And you don't want 436 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,479 Speaker 3: to see an angry good back running at you throughout 437 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 3: the season. I've seen that. I've had my fair share 438 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 3: of that, and it isn't fun. You know, the guys 439 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 3: that are motivated to come out and you know, put 440 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 3: a stamp on a season, a stamp on something they're 441 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 3: trying to get throughout that year. And all these guys 442 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 3: are gonna be hungry. They're all essentially planning for contracts 443 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 3: again next year, so this is our contract year again, 444 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 3: So it's gonna be angry running. It's gonna be some 445 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 3: really good guys that are having a chance to prove 446 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 3: themselves on the big stage because all of them have 447 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 3: a chance to win. Outside of the Vegas Raiders, which 448 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 3: I'm I'm on the fence. I think they have a chance, 449 00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 3: but they're not on that upper aslon. But they all 450 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 3: gonna have to be successful. 451 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 2: Well, we're going to be talking plenty about the upcoming 452 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 2: NFL season, including some advice I'd like to give to 453 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 2: the league. I know they won't listen to me, but 454 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 2: there's something very glaring that needs to be taken care of. 455 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 2: But first the first let's find out what is trending 456 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 2: right now.

So if you're looking at your calendar 624 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 2: and you're not aware of this over the last couple 625 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 2: of years, when they cut the preseason from four to 626 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 2: three games, so this is the last week of preseason football. 627 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 2: There is no NFL football next weekend. Right, the idea 628 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 2: that we have a bye week before the season begins, 629 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 2: and this is this new phenomenon over the last couple 630 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 2: of years. I'm still trying to figure this out. Now, 631 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 2: this is good for college football next weekend, they will 632 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 2: Week one, full slate of college football. They will get 633 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 2: center stage. But I know this wasn't happening when you 634 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 2: were playing in the NFL. You went from that last 635 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 2: preseason game into the regular season. 636 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 3: It was essentially happened happening because we weren't playing that 637 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 3: fourth game. So, right, we will still get a pseudo bye, But. 638 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 2: How you played maybe a little in the first couple 639 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 2: of games. Game three was the was the dress rehearsal. 640 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:45,239 Speaker 2: Then nobody would play Game four. But the idea of 641 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 2: having a dead week, yeah, prior to Week one in 642 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 2: the NFL, it's like, wait, what, there's no NFL foot 643 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 2: There's no NFL football next week, none, none, The next 644 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 2: day where we have one preseason game on Sunday, most 645 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 2: of the preseason game answer today, we have one preseason 646 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 2: game tomorrow and then there's nothing until September seventh, the 647 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 2: Thursday Night mettle between the Chiefs and the Lions. So 648 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 2: how would you have handled this downtime before a season 649 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 2: actually begins, especially if you haven't played a whole lot 650 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 2: in the preseason. 651 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 3: Well, the number one thing with that would be for me, 652 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 3: the time that's in between that first week is somebody 653 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 3: getting in trouble because you've been in camp religiously and 654 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 3: you've done a lot of work and you're tired. You 655 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 3: finally get to go home and be with your family, 656 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 3: and you have time at your disposal now. And so 657 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 3: you know, these big city kids and not even the 658 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 3: big city, I mean any any of these kids getting 659 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 3: free time on their hands to make their own decisions now. 660 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:51,959 Speaker 3: And so that would be the scary part for me 661 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 3: as a as the owner of a franchise or the 662 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 3: head coach, really being on these kids to do the 663 00:31:58,200 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 3: right things in that week off. 664 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: Now. 665 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 2: I just don't get it. I really don't now. I 666 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 2: first of all, I don't get the preseason. Yeah, I 667 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 2: mean every time I see somebody actually get hurt in 668 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 2: a preseason game, I'm like. 669 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 3: Why again are we playing these games? I know, I know, 670 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 3: why are you doing this? 671 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 2: There really is no reason we prove this in twenty twenty. 672 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 3: There was no training camp during the COVID year. 673 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 2: It just like showed up for Week one and let's play, 674 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 2: ready to go. 675 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think again, Yeah, there's only a few spots, 676 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 3: like we've talked about before, that are. 677 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 2: Even I mean, these are final spots on a roster 678 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 2: exactly exactly special teams guys that can possibly help you 679 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:37,959 Speaker 2: down the stretch. 680 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 3: But as far as your key guys, you're just putting 681 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 3: the matter risks there. So I don't know either. I 682 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 3: don't know, Steve. It's just so frustrated. 683 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 2: Now we do know when they expand the schedule eventually 684 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 2: from seventeen to eighteen games, they're gonna have a twenty 685 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 2: week season. So right now we have an eighteen week 686 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 2: season for seventeen games. It'll be a there'll be two bots. 687 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 2: And I get the idea of a bye during a season. Yes, 688 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 2: and you really don't want an early buy, right, what 689 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 2: would you say? 690 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 3: Well, maybe you do. 691 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 2: It depends on what it is, let's go back here. 692 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 2: So I know people are just curious and having the 693 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 2: opportunity to work for an NFL team back in the 694 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 2: Stone Age, to see players drag their bodies in on 695 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 2: Monday was horrifying, to be honest with you, And then 696 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 2: somehow just magic occurred. Those are the days when we 697 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 2: still have full practices on Wednesday and thursdays. I mean 698 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 2: full padded practices. Yes, so you get a day off 699 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 2: on Tuesday and then you're right back at it. And 700 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 2: I would week to week, I'm like, I have no 701 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 2: idea how they're doing it. I mean, are you feeling 702 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 2: it from day one to training camp or how how 703 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 2: is your body operating? Does it operate differently once the 704 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 2: regular season begins, Because when I was saying you wanted 705 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 2: to have your bye later, you were like, no, I 706 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 2: like to like a bye you like every other week. 707 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 3: It depends. Yeah, yeah, I think the number one thing 708 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 3: with that, Yeah, you're hurting as soon as I mean 709 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 3: day one training camp. I mean just your feet, just 710 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 3: every bump and bruise you feel because your body has 711 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 3: to get used to that. Your shoulders so does Yeah. 712 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:11,479 Speaker 1: A little. 713 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 2: Pads are different now than they used to be. 714 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, No, we had the big boys back and yeah, 715 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 3: I look like a linebacker out there. Yes, but you know, 716 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:22,719 Speaker 3: the idea that you're ever fully healthy in NFL is 717 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 3: just that would be like one of the greatest miss 718 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 3: bye week. 719 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 2: I mean, did you just lay around and do nothing 720 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 2: or how did it work for you? 721 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 3: It changed as I got older. Yeah, in my younger days, yes, 722 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:35,759 Speaker 3: that bye week was me going off somewhere. I was 723 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 3: getting away. I would travel somewhere, even if it was 724 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 3: because I was on the East Coast. I would go 725 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 3: to the Bahamas a lot doing my early years and 726 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 3: have a couple of days there, come back refreshed, ready 727 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 3: to go. But year five six, you start just wanting 728 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 3: to stay at home and make sure you get the 729 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 3: treatment early. So, I mean just the knowledge of what 730 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,879 Speaker 3: your body can take as you get older, you know that, right, 731 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 3: and so the recovery process would be different. And you know, 732 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 3: I had fun when I was younger, but as I 733 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 3: got older, it was more about doing the right things, 734 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 3: eating nutrition, taking care of my body and going to 735 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,800 Speaker 3: get some treatment because I needed at that point. 736 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,280 Speaker 2: No football next week as far as the NFL is concerned. 737 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:15,720 Speaker 2: But we'll finally get the regular season underway on September seventh. 738 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 2: All right, coming up on the other side, Notre Dame 739 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 2: Navy's turned out to be a one sided affair thanks 740 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 2: to Sam Hartman, the Notre Dame quarterback. He's lighting up 741 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,799 Speaker 2: against Navy. USC figures have a similar day against San 742 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 2: Jose State. What kind of season are we going to 743 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 2: see from the reigning Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams, We'll 744 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 2: break it down. This is Fox Sports Saturday, Steve Harbin 745 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,439 Speaker 2: and Carrie Rhoades, Fox Sports Saturday. We are coming live 746 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 2: from the tai iraq dot Com studios. Notre Dame just 747 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,479 Speaker 2: missed a field goal attempt, still leading Navy thirty five 748 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,439 Speaker 2: and nothing. Sam Hartman eighteen to twenty two, two hundred 749 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:57,839 Speaker 2: and twenty six yards, three touchdowns and no picks. So 750 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 2: oh you want to hear the latest touchdown? Here was 751 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 2: the latest Notre Dame score. 752 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:06,280 Speaker 7: Has Tomate ships from left to right. Pair of pass 753 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 7: catchers to the left of Hartman looks that way in 754 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 7: trouble side steps of pressure, runs across the twenty fires to. 755 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 2: The end zone. 756 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 7: Touchdown Shaden Greathouse just inside the left pilot on the 757 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:19,840 Speaker 7: far side of the field. As Sam Hartman rolled to 758 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 7: his left. 759 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 2: I'm going to be wanting to hear number name highlights 760 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 2: all season long, Paul Burris, They're right there, Notre Dame 761 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 2: Sports Network. So Sam Hartman gets a jump start on 762 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 2: everybody get the spotlight. And of course later on today 763 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 2: we talk about Caleb Williams, the reigning Heisman Trophy winner. 764 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 2: During the break, Kerry, you and I were talking about 765 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 2: some recent Heisman Trophy winners that had come back the 766 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:48,320 Speaker 2: following year, and a lot of them have had good years. 767 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:53,439 Speaker 2: You're Lamar Jackson had an outstanding near his junior year 768 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 2: after winning the Heisman as a sophomore, but finished third 769 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 2: in the Heisman. They're all chasing Archie Griffin, the only 770 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 2: guy that went two Heisman's. I don't want to get 771 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 2: into all the specifics, but if you do a little research, 772 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 2: and this is no disrespect to Archie Griffin. 773 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 3: I've interviewed him, I've talked to him. 774 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 2: He is an amazing man. But his senior year Heisman 775 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 2: was dubious, to say the least. There were others like 776 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,359 Speaker 2: Chuck Munci or Ricky Bell. Even a Tony dor said 777 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 2: his junior that might have been more deserving the Heisman 778 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:25,840 Speaker 2: that year. But that being said, Caleb Williams will have 779 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 2: an opportunity and is the favorite to win the Heisman Trophy. 780 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 2: We saw what he did a year ago, and I 781 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 2: have a Heisman vote, and I've had a Heisman vote 782 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:40,320 Speaker 2: dating back to twenty ten, the year that Cam Newton 783 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 2: won the Heisman Trophy. But what are your thoughts about 784 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 2: the pressures on Caleb Williams to outdo himself because what 785 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,760 Speaker 2: we saw with Tim Tebow when he came back, others 786 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 2: have had as good a year. Even Johnny man man 787 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 2: zeldy sophomore year after winning as a freshman was on 788 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 2: par with what he did did the year before. But 789 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 2: they seem hesitant to give a guy a second Heisman Trophy. 790 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 2: Could Caleb Williams become the second guy to actually take 791 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:11,760 Speaker 2: home two trophies? 792 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the thing I look at when I when 793 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 3: I see a lot of the guys return after winning 794 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 3: the Heisman. David's We've already seen this rodeo before, and 795 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:21,239 Speaker 3: I think that's kind that kind of gets in the 796 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 3: voter's head. I would think, I mean, you having a vote, 797 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 3: I don't. You can speak about that more than I can. 798 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 3: But just from an outside observer seeing it, because like 799 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 3: you said, these guys have come back and put up 800 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 3: similar numbers or you know, comparable numbers and still you know, 801 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:36,719 Speaker 3: not be able to crack that top three, and some have. 802 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,720 Speaker 3: But a guy like Caleb Williams, seeing him, he seems 803 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 3: so cool and he seems so collective collected most of 804 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 3: the times, and so I will see him being that 805 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 3: same guy. Obviously he's a little bit more settled. He's 806 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,360 Speaker 3: making a little bit money here in college now with 807 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 3: the NIL stuff, So I mean, there's been rumors about 808 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,800 Speaker 3: him just loving the college life and wanting to play 809 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 3: even beyond this year. So I want to see how 810 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,080 Speaker 3: he comes out and plays. But I think the success 811 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 3: of his team will help a lot with him being 812 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:05,760 Speaker 3: a repeat winner. 813 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:09,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, name, image and likeness has changed everything. Believe me, 814 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 2: Kayleb Williams is making millions and millions of dollars millions, millions, 815 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 2: millions of dollars as the USC quarterback this year, and 816 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:20,359 Speaker 2: that's great. I have one hundred percent for that. But 817 00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 2: it is a little bit different now because you are 818 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:27,080 Speaker 2: being paid. You're a professional in that sense. And so 819 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 2: as far as duplicating or repeating or I put it 820 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 2: this way. When I look at the Heisman Trophy, it 821 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 2: is not a It's not a career award. It's a 822 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 2: season award. During the college football season, I do updates 823 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:44,280 Speaker 2: every single week. You know, what are my top three? 824 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 2: Everyone's got to play a game. But what happened last 825 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 2: year is zero bearing on this year. Everyone starts with 826 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,279 Speaker 2: zero and zero and you start a new Now at 827 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,920 Speaker 2: the end of the year of KYLEB. Williams is the 828 00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,399 Speaker 2: best player like I felt he was a year ago. Yeah, 829 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 2: Kumi gets my Heisman vote. 830 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 3: What does he need to do for you to stand out? 831 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 3: To be that guy? 832 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:09,080 Speaker 2: USC's got to get to the college football that's I agree. 833 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 3: The team. 834 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:13,440 Speaker 2: He leads USC to a Pac twelve championship, remember they 835 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,799 Speaker 2: got blown up by Utah last year, and gets into 836 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 2: the playoff and puts the kind of numbers he did 837 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 2: a year ago. Believe me, he has a great chance 838 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 2: to win the Heisman Trophy. 839 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:21,839 Speaker 3: All right. 840 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 2: Coming up on the other side, we get back to 841 00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 2: the NFL and a blunder of blunders by the San 842 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 2: Francisco forty nine ers.

Notre Dame is blowing 856 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 2: out Navy. They just got to the end of the 857 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:14,840 Speaker 2: third quarter, Notre Dame leading by a score of thirty 858 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 2: five to nothing. In their quarterback Sam Hartman, Have I 859 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 2: mentioned him yet? Today? He's eighteen of twenty two, two 860 00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty six yards, three touchdowns, no picks. My 861 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 2: favorite comparison here is ty Lavitai. The Navy quarterback is 862 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 2: one for four for two yards. Yeah, yeah, I love Navy, 863 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,480 Speaker 2: I mean Navy. Let's see how many times they have 864 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 2: run the ball in this game. They have run the 865 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 2: ball thirty six times and they have thrown four passes. Army, 866 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:42,239 Speaker 2: we see the same thing year and a year out. 867 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 2: This is why I love about college football. 868 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:44,959 Speaker 9: Right. 869 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 2: So Navy, obviously they've had this offense forever. Yes, they 870 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 2: literally had games where they have thrown zero passes, so 871 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,319 Speaker 2: this is not anything new to them. But I love 872 00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:59,920 Speaker 2: the diversity that when you watch Navy and it come 873 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,919 Speaker 2: fuse other teams because you're facing an offense that you're 874 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,879 Speaker 2: not familiar with. That's why Navy. We've seen them pull 875 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:09,080 Speaker 2: big upsets, including over Notre Dame in the past. It's 876 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:09,960 Speaker 2: not happening today. 877 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:13,120 Speaker 3: But the reason why they catch you off guard during 878 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,239 Speaker 3: the season because it depends on how short that week is. 879 00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 3: If you don't have time to prepare for that that 880 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,320 Speaker 3: option attack that they're going to bring out, it can 881 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 3: They can score a lot of points that way. And 882 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 3: so you know, it was smarter Notre Dame to schedule 883 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:27,359 Speaker 3: them the first game of the season. Yeah, that had 884 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 3: all off season to prepare for this, So I knew 885 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 3: Notre Dame would come out ready to play this one, 886 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 3: especially with the addition of Hartman. Yes, you know, a 887 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:37,600 Speaker 3: sixty year quarterback that helps. 888 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 2: This doesn't surprise me at all. No, absolutely so. And 889 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 2: then later on USC will take on San Jose State. 890 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 2: And then, as we mentioned, next week, there is no 891 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 2: NFL none. Preseason ends tomorrow and then we have a 892 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:54,640 Speaker 2: dead week in the NFL while we have Week one 893 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 2: of college football. So college football will get a full 894 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 2: spotlight next week and then we're off to. 895 00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:01,759 Speaker 3: All right. 896 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 2: So the big story I have see in the NFL 897 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 2: this week was first the announcement by the forty nine 898 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,720 Speaker 2: Ers that Sam Darnold was going to be the backup 899 00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:11,479 Speaker 2: quarterback to Brock Purty. And we knew where this was going. 900 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 2: It didn't take long. The Dallas Cowboys offered a fourth 901 00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:19,360 Speaker 2: round pick to take Trey Lance. So let's rewind a 902 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 2: little bit here. So a couple of years ago, the 903 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 2: forty nine Ers made this trade. They traded three number 904 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 2: ones and a third, by the way, to move up 905 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 2: to the number three overall pick in the draft. They 906 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 2: were sitting at twelve, sitting at twelve, which, by the way, 907 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:39,879 Speaker 2: the way that draft went, they could have had mac 908 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 2: Jones at twelve. There's a lot of different options. But again, 909 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:47,240 Speaker 2: remember and then we were speculating. There were some wild 910 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 2: rumors that mac Jones was going to go third overall, 911 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 2: and I'm like, why would you trade all that draft 912 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,200 Speaker 2: capital to move up. Mac Jones isn't going to go 913 00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:59,360 Speaker 2: that high in the draft. I didn't think he was 914 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,760 Speaker 2: going to be that guy. But they ended up taking 915 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 2: Trey Lance, who played one year essentially of FCS football. 916 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 2: His numbers were outrageous. I mean, he had over eleven 917 00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:13,280 Speaker 2: hundred yards rushing, He had twenty eight touchdowns, no picks, 918 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:17,279 Speaker 2: then throw a single interception that year. But you know, 919 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:21,359 Speaker 2: at the FCS level, North Dakota State is like an 920 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:25,799 Speaker 2: FBS school playing in the FCSH Yes, I mean they 921 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 2: dominate to such a degree of won so many national 922 00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:33,239 Speaker 2: championships over the years. They have just better talent than 923 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 2: everybody else. 924 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 3: They take the field whip. 925 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 2: But that being said, when they announced that they were 926 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 2: taking Trey Lance, all I could think was is that 927 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan felt limited with Jimmy Garoppolo, very similar to 928 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 2: what the Chiefs situation was with Alex Smith and drafting 929 00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:54,040 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes, where they felt that he physically could do 930 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:56,360 Speaker 2: more things than Alex Smith and take their offense to 931 00:44:56,400 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 2: the next level, which obviously he did. It didn't work 932 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:04,319 Speaker 2: obviously with Trey Lance. Let's start with why didn't this 933 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:08,280 Speaker 2: work and why in hindsight, this was an ill fated 934 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 2: decision by the forty nine ers. 935 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,319 Speaker 3: Well, it didn't work because he hasn't had a chance 936 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,920 Speaker 3: to show that it could work. The time that he 937 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:16,560 Speaker 3: was there, he was hurt, so he got injured early. 938 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 3: He didn't have a chance to really go through the fire. 939 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:22,840 Speaker 3: And you be a consistent starter in his league. So 940 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 3: the panic button here. Obviously, when you go for a 941 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,279 Speaker 3: guy that high and the results aren't being yielded the 942 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 3: way that you would like them to be, changes have 943 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 3: to be made. Do I think they abandoned the situation 944 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:39,280 Speaker 3: a little quickly based off his just even having tape 945 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:43,120 Speaker 3: to show what he can do. Yes, But also when 946 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,440 Speaker 3: you have a guy that stepped into that position and 947 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 3: brock Purdy and played well and did operate at your 948 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:52,840 Speaker 3: offense the way you wanted it, then that's the coach's 949 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:55,800 Speaker 3: choice to make that decision. But to say Trey Lance 950 00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:59,320 Speaker 3: is the biggest bust ever or put all the blame 951 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 3: on him, which I know we're not at the moment, 952 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 3: but outsiders are putting blame on him from not you know, 953 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:08,000 Speaker 3: living up to that number three status. You tell them 954 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 3: to pump the brakes. I put the attention, and I 955 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 3: put the blame on Shannon had and your boy Lynch 956 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,440 Speaker 3: for moving up and trading those picks to take that 957 00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:22,759 Speaker 3: said player at that position when we know and hindsight 958 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:25,400 Speaker 3: always is twenty twenty, right, we could see that he 959 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,960 Speaker 3: would have been available at twelve. So you look at 960 00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:30,200 Speaker 3: that and say, we give the boo boo, and we 961 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:31,879 Speaker 3: get to slap on the hands of those two, not 962 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:32,839 Speaker 3: not Trey Lance as much. 963 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:37,400 Speaker 2: For me, when you have playmakers like McCaffrey yep and 964 00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:42,720 Speaker 2: Deebo Samuel George Kittle a lot, all you really need 965 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:46,880 Speaker 2: is a quarterback to get their ball from them to 966 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,440 Speaker 2: those players, right, I mean, and this is the irony 967 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 2: in this entire situation. If you were to go back 968 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,520 Speaker 2: see they you wouldn't even have taken Mac. They're not 969 00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 2: going to take Mac Jones's Jimmy Garoppolo exactly. Jimmy Garoppolo 970 00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:05,040 Speaker 2: always the crazy thing about Garoppolo was he just couldn't 971 00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:08,400 Speaker 2: stay healthy. And the other problem with Garoppolo was is 972 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:09,840 Speaker 2: that when he was hurt. 973 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,120 Speaker 3: They were losing exactly. 974 00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 2: I mean, it was the start contrast for Kyle Shanahan 975 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,640 Speaker 2: with Jimmy Garoppolo as his starting quarterback, and when he 976 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 2: was out was like night and day. So you just 977 00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:24,360 Speaker 2: need a quarterback in that Shanahan offense that can get 978 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:27,759 Speaker 2: the ball in the hands of the play makers, which 979 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:31,640 Speaker 2: is exactly what brock perty is. I don't know what 980 00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 2: he was thinking that Trey Lance was going to do. 981 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 2: Because again, for a quarterback, two things, two things to 982 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:40,680 Speaker 2: be a success. Yeah, two things you have to be 983 00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:44,080 Speaker 2: able to do to be a successful quarterback. One is 984 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 2: complete percentage, high percentage of passes. This is a league 985 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:51,320 Speaker 2: where you got to complete sixty eight sixty nine to 986 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 2: seventy percent of his passes. And the other thing is 987 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,200 Speaker 2: you have to be able to think quick on your feet. 988 00:47:57,360 --> 00:48:02,240 Speaker 2: You have to recognize defenses instantly. Playing an FCS schedule 989 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 2: for a year really put Trey Lance back and his 990 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:11,320 Speaker 2: ability to recognize constant looks, new looks with NFL defenses 991 00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 2: because they're going to change week to week. Teams are 992 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 2: going to find out what your weakness is and if 993 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:19,800 Speaker 2: you don't recognize that instantaneously, you can't be a successful quarterback. 994 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:22,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, but the recognition part comes with time. Yes, none 995 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:25,400 Speaker 3: of them are going to come into this thing NFL 996 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 3: already and be able to read defenses the way they will, 997 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:32,440 Speaker 3: you know, after they've played some games. And so again, 998 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:34,719 Speaker 3: he just hasn't had the simple size to show that 999 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:37,359 Speaker 3: that can be done. I know obviously in practice, I'm 1000 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 3: sure they see more of him than we do. So 1001 00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:42,000 Speaker 3: I mean, he's probably not doing that well in practice 1002 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,160 Speaker 3: as far as reading as well. But you got to 1003 00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:45,880 Speaker 3: throw those guys in the fire and see what he does. 1004 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 3: And he just hasn't been available and that has hurt 1005 00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 3: him the most. And I think with the thinking of 1006 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:54,520 Speaker 3: what you just said, having game managers, there has been 1007 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:57,320 Speaker 3: you know, moments of that. You know, those type of 1008 00:48:57,360 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 3: guys winning your Super Bowls. You look at Trent Dilferd 1009 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 3: in Baltimore, right, but who got released after this the 1010 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:04,919 Speaker 3: next year. At the end of the day, you see 1011 00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 3: the talent and the infusion of talent in the league 1012 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 3: now where these dual quarterbacks are coming in and having 1013 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 3: all the success and being flashy and you know, being 1014 00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:15,040 Speaker 3: able to make plays out of nothing, to do the 1015 00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:18,960 Speaker 3: things that those quarterbacks can do. You see that and 1016 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:20,960 Speaker 3: you get greedy. I think as a front office guy 1017 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:23,279 Speaker 3: or a coach, you want to add more to the 1018 00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:25,239 Speaker 3: you know, more fuel to the fire. And that's what 1019 00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:26,239 Speaker 3: it seems like they tried to do. 1020 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:27,920 Speaker 2: All right, So let's get into the head of the 1021 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:34,279 Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys. Yep, why are you pursuing Trey Lance? I 1022 00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:39,600 Speaker 2: mean now, Shanahan came out today trying to defend the 1023 00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 2: whole Trey Lance situation, just explaining that he felt more 1024 00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:46,799 Speaker 2: comfortable with Sam Darnold's a backup quarterback, and that they 1025 00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:48,719 Speaker 2: were not going to get rid of Trey Lance. But 1026 00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:52,000 Speaker 2: Trey Lance wanted an opportunity to be someone else's number two. 1027 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:54,440 Speaker 3: Okay, which sounds. 1028 00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:57,959 Speaker 2: Ridiculous, but okay, no, everybody wants to be the one. 1029 00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:00,279 Speaker 2: No one's like I want to be somebody's too. He's 1030 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:04,320 Speaker 2: obviously the two in Dallas. So Dak Prescott, it's a 1031 00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:07,000 Speaker 2: team that won twelve games a year ago. Dak Prescott's 1032 00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 2: won a lot of regular season games, hasn't done a 1033 00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:13,560 Speaker 2: whole lot in the postseason. So are the Cowboys trying 1034 00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:17,640 Speaker 2: to light a fire under Dak Prescott? And do you 1035 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:20,520 Speaker 2: really light a fire under Dak Prescott by bringing in 1036 00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:24,040 Speaker 2: someone like Trey Lance. He's not exactly shaken in his 1037 00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:26,759 Speaker 2: boots right now. And how much time are you going 1038 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:30,040 Speaker 2: to have to actually develop Trey Lance, because now you 1039 00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:32,840 Speaker 2: picked him up right as we get the regular season underway. 1040 00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:34,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's gonna behind the eight ball again here, and 1041 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:38,160 Speaker 3: so you just put him in another situation to, you know, 1042 00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 3: to possibly fail. I mean, you get a guy that 1043 00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 3: late in the season, you know he's not going to 1044 00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:45,640 Speaker 3: be able to develop and be the number two guy 1045 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:47,680 Speaker 3: and be ready to go as the season starts off. 1046 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:50,120 Speaker 3: So you know, I guess, get him in your system, 1047 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 3: teach him what he needs to be taught in that system, 1048 00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:54,879 Speaker 3: and move forward. But I mean, they weren't the only team. 1049 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:56,360 Speaker 3: The Cowboys went the only team in the mix. I 1050 00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 3: heard Buffalo is in that mix, and so why was 1051 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:00,839 Speaker 3: Buffalo in that mix as well? Who knows? I think 1052 00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:01,560 Speaker 3: you know. 1053 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:05,359 Speaker 2: First of all, here's here's something I always know. So 1054 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:08,360 Speaker 2: every NFL team has their own draft board. Uh huh, 1055 00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:10,919 Speaker 2: we have no idea if you're not in that room, 1056 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:15,799 Speaker 2: the order in which they have players ranked. It is 1057 00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:18,200 Speaker 2: not far fetched to believe that we're a lot of 1058 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:21,120 Speaker 2: teams that had Trey Lance listed as their number one 1059 00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 2: quarterback in that draft. Sure, and they never forget that. 1060 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:29,719 Speaker 2: They never forget that. You know, Sam Darnald was a 1061 00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:33,480 Speaker 2: very similar situation where remember it was him and Baker Mayfield. 1062 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 2: A lot of felt that Donald should have been number one. 1063 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:38,640 Speaker 2: He ends up three. But people don't forget their own 1064 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:42,480 Speaker 2: draft forards just because he didn't work out there, or 1065 00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:46,360 Speaker 2: maybe didn't work out there if he puts on our uniform. 1066 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:49,759 Speaker 2: We remember, and I'm sure there were a lot of 1067 00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:52,960 Speaker 2: teams that felt like the forty nine ers did that 1068 00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:59,279 Speaker 2: Trey Lance was a rare talent that unfortunately just never 1069 00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:00,799 Speaker 2: materialized for the forty nine ers. 1070 00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:03,000 Speaker 3: And everybody thinks that you can bring a player into 1071 00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:05,080 Speaker 3: your system and you can make them a better player 1072 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:06,880 Speaker 3: or make them the player they're supposed to be. So 1073 00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 3: you know, that's kind of what's happening here. I don't 1074 00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:12,760 Speaker 3: know what Dallas, I don't know their interior, their their 1075 00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:16,000 Speaker 3: ulterior motives in this situation, but I think you know 1076 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,879 Speaker 3: number one Dak's going to be, you know, talking about 1077 00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:23,280 Speaker 3: an extension here pretty soon, and so you bring somebody 1078 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:25,880 Speaker 3: in to show him that you may not have as 1079 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:27,640 Speaker 3: much leverage as you think you have. That can also 1080 00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:28,399 Speaker 3: be a play here too. 1081 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you look at how little Trey Lance has 1082 00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:32,840 Speaker 2: played in the last five years, he red shirted the 1083 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,600 Speaker 2: year at North Dakota State, played the one year, played 1084 00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:39,040 Speaker 2: one game, the next year shut down with COVID, and 1085 00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:42,560 Speaker 2: then his two years in the NFL. I mean, that's 1086 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 2: a limited snack. 1087 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 3: That's winning the lottery, That's what that is. He made 1088 00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 3: a lot of money. He made a lot of money. 1089 00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:50,200 Speaker 2: All Right, we got other NFL news we got to 1090 00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 2: get to on the other side. We're going to start 1091 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:56,400 Speaker 2: taking a look at some of these division races. A 1092 00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:59,560 Speaker 2: couple of divisions were teams you would not have expected 1093 00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:03,560 Speaker 2: a year go. Are suddenly overwhelming favors to win their 1094 00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:08,840 Speaker 2: division this season? Are they for real or are they pretenders? 1095 00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 2: We'll break it down. This is Fox Sports Saturday. 1096 00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:15,840 Speaker 7: He stands in the shotguns. Jeremiah Love ships from the 1097 00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:18,640 Speaker 7: right to the left, blitz coming Hartman wide receiver screen 1098 00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:21,160 Speaker 7: to the right, twenty five twenty, running to the fifteen 1099 00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:23,840 Speaker 7: to ten and into the end zone. Coast Ton Colsey 1100 00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:26,919 Speaker 7: broke a tackle at the line of scrimmage and then 1101 00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:29,960 Speaker 7: sprints it across the strike from twenty five yards out. 1102 00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:35,839 Speaker 2: That's Paul Burmeister, Notre Dame Sports Network and Notre Dame 1103 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:38,600 Speaker 2: leading Navy by a score of forty two to nothing. 1104 00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 2: Inside four minutes to go. In this game, Sam Hartman, 1105 00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:47,200 Speaker 2: the sixth year quarterback after five years at Wake Forest, has. 1106 00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 3: Put his name right there in the chase for the Heisman. 1107 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:52,400 Speaker 2: Nineteen of twenty three, two hundred and fifty one yards, 1108 00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:56,359 Speaker 2: four touchdowns and no picks. All right, once again, we're 1109 00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 2: coming you alive from the Tirak dot com studios and 1110 00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 2: football fans, be sure to tune into Fox Sports Radio 1111 00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:05,719 Speaker 2: every Saturday and Sunday morning three hours before kickoff for 1112 00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:09,480 Speaker 2: Countdown to Kickoff, presented by bet MGM.

I want to talk about two teams in particular, 1123 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:46,160 Speaker 2: who a year ago this time were coming off seasons 1124 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:49,439 Speaker 2: in which they edorned the top two picks in the draft, So, 1125 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,040 Speaker 2: in other words, two worst teams in the league, and 1126 00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:54,520 Speaker 2: then both had winning seasons a year ago. So you 1127 00:54:54,560 --> 00:54:57,680 Speaker 2: go from the first and second picks in the draft 1128 00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 2: to nine and eight seasons. One the Jackxonville Jaguars, it 1129 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:03,040 Speaker 2: was good enough to get into the playoffs had the 1130 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 2: miracle comeback against the Chargers to move on to the 1131 00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:08,439 Speaker 2: second round. And the Lions, of course nine to eight, 1132 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:11,799 Speaker 2: including knocking Green Bay and Aaron Rodgers out of the 1133 00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:15,200 Speaker 2: playoffs by thumping him in that last regular season game. 1134 00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:19,280 Speaker 2: So these two teams are favored to win their divisions 1135 00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:23,560 Speaker 2: in the AFC South and the NFC North. Let's start 1136 00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:28,759 Speaker 2: with the Jacksonville Jaguars. When you think about what Doug 1137 00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:34,040 Speaker 2: Peterson inherited after that Urban Meyer fiasco, the previous year 1138 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:38,880 Speaker 2: might have been the worst hiring of a coach in 1139 00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:39,880 Speaker 2: NFL history. 1140 00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:41,160 Speaker 3: And by the way, I don't want to take. 1141 00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:44,400 Speaker 2: Anything away from Urban Meyer's collegiate career. He'll be in 1142 00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:47,400 Speaker 2: the College Football Hall of Fame someday. But he was 1143 00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:51,160 Speaker 2: ill suited obviously to be an NFL coach, and a 1144 00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:53,120 Speaker 2: lot of people worried what kind of effect it was 1145 00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:55,279 Speaker 2: going to have on Trevor Lawrence. And then you bring 1146 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:59,120 Speaker 2: Doug Peterson in and a guy that's won a Super Bowl, 1147 00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:01,839 Speaker 2: and you could see a team that struggled for much 1148 00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:04,399 Speaker 2: of the season caught fire at the end of the year. 1149 00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:06,959 Speaker 2: Everything started to click and then all of a sudden, 1150 00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 2: you're into the postseason. 1151 00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:11,080 Speaker 3: So are we to. 1152 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:15,520 Speaker 2: Expect that Jacksonville builds off what they did a year ago, 1153 00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:19,719 Speaker 2: especially with that hot finish, or is it conceivable that 1154 00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:23,600 Speaker 2: there's still a lot of question marks about Jacksonville that 1155 00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:27,400 Speaker 2: have to be rectified before we can really start calling 1156 00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:30,720 Speaker 2: them a perennial playoff contender. 1157 00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:35,560 Speaker 3: Well, very very conceivable to think that this team could 1158 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:37,960 Speaker 3: be a little bit ahead of themselves. I think when 1159 00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:40,600 Speaker 3: you struggle the way they did and you find success 1160 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 3: late in the year, obviously the taste of what that 1161 00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:46,719 Speaker 3: brought them was was a unique feeling. Right, you got 1162 00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:51,040 Speaker 3: a chance to see the work, the proof and the putting. Right, 1163 00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:54,040 Speaker 3: you go through adversity, you get better, you build, and 1164 00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:56,759 Speaker 3: then you start to have success. Now you have to 1165 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:59,319 Speaker 3: build in that success, and you have to build in 1166 00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:03,000 Speaker 3: that success coming out in the next year, which you 1167 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:06,319 Speaker 3: know we talk about this before, that stuff doesn't carry over. 1168 00:57:07,239 --> 00:57:10,000 Speaker 3: It's a whole new year. But the mindset in the 1169 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:13,040 Speaker 3: building needs to carry over. So we're going to see 1170 00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:15,680 Speaker 3: once the real games kick in. I think they are 1171 00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:19,120 Speaker 3: and should be favored, but I'm saying pumped the breaks 1172 00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:22,040 Speaker 3: on them being perennial, perennial, perennial good team. 1173 00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:25,640 Speaker 2: They started last year two and six, right, Their last 1174 00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:27,600 Speaker 2: nine games here were seven and two and finished on 1175 00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 2: a five game winning streak. I tend to agree with you. 1176 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:34,560 Speaker 2: I think if you trace back to teams that have 1177 00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 2: breakout seasons, and this is not true across the board. 1178 00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:41,480 Speaker 2: There's always exceptions. But I remember, for instance, the forty 1179 00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:44,600 Speaker 2: nine ers, when Joe Montana and the forty nine ers 1180 00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:46,760 Speaker 2: came out of nowhere to win that first Super Bowl. 1181 00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:48,880 Speaker 2: And by the way, there was no Jerry Rice in 1182 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:52,640 Speaker 2: those days, no Roger Craig. I mean, it was they 1183 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:55,920 Speaker 2: People want to somehow diminish what Joe Montana did. He 1184 00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:58,440 Speaker 2: won two Super Bowls before Jerry Rice ever showed up. 1185 00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 2: So start doing a little. But anyway, but the next 1186 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,040 Speaker 2: year was a shorten year because of the strike. They 1187 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:07,040 Speaker 2: had a losing record, they missed the playoffs and then 1188 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:08,920 Speaker 2: the next year they got right back into it and 1189 00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:13,400 Speaker 2: never looked back. Sometimes and even Tom Brady remember the 1190 00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:16,280 Speaker 2: year after they won that first Super Bowl, they missed 1191 00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,720 Speaker 2: the playoffs, Yes, and then they came back to went 1192 00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:22,680 Speaker 2: back to back Super Bowls. I'm a big believer in 1193 00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:25,920 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence, so am I, and I think what really 1194 00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:27,840 Speaker 2: took him to the next level is what he did 1195 00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:31,120 Speaker 2: in that playoff game. He threw four picks in the 1196 00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:33,680 Speaker 2: first half of your first playoff game. You're just thinking 1197 00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 2: to yourself, the moment's too big for him. Yeah, and 1198 00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:38,200 Speaker 2: then he comes back before touchdown passes. 1199 00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:40,920 Speaker 3: Oh, it was. It was incredible. I remember watching that 1200 00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:44,000 Speaker 3: game and not even watching it. I was not home, 1201 00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:46,400 Speaker 3: but I was seeing the updates, and I saw the interception. 1202 00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:48,880 Speaker 3: After the interception. At the interception, I'm like, Oh, this 1203 00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 3: game's over. This is bad. Then I get home and 1204 00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:55,920 Speaker 3: I see the score, I'm like, what happened? So I started, 1205 00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:59,440 Speaker 3: you know, I actually taped the game and rewatched it 1206 00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:02,960 Speaker 3: and was like, Wow, for him to have the moxy, 1207 00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:07,320 Speaker 3: to have the mindset of being able to bounce back 1208 00:59:07,360 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 3: after what he just put out there in the first half, 1209 00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 3: first first quarter, really it wasn't even the first half, 1210 00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:14,919 Speaker 3: because as the half grew, he got a little better 1211 00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:16,880 Speaker 3: and better and better as the game went on. But 1212 00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:18,760 Speaker 3: to see him bounce back and do that, man, I'm 1213 00:59:18,920 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 3: a big believer in Lawrence, and he's obviously had success 1214 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:24,520 Speaker 3: on every level and been the guy on every level. 1215 00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:26,080 Speaker 3: So to be able to show that in the league, 1216 00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:28,240 Speaker 3: it's it was pretty good. And then you talk about 1217 00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:31,400 Speaker 3: Doug Peterson, right, the quarterback whisperer, and what he's been 1218 00:59:31,440 --> 00:59:34,760 Speaker 3: able to do with guys that aren't as talented as him. 1219 00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:38,560 Speaker 3: I mean, this guy's the limit for the guy, Doug Peterson. 1220 00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:40,840 Speaker 2: You know, you remember the ironing about Doug Peterson when 1221 00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:45,880 Speaker 2: the Eagles hired him. The hiring was panned by everybody 1222 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:50,400 Speaker 2: because he was, you know, the coordinator for Annie Reid 1223 00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:53,640 Speaker 2: in Kansas City rooms. Like you do understand that Annie 1224 00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:58,440 Speaker 2: Reid calls all the plays right, like he's he's not 1225 00:59:58,680 --> 01:00:00,960 Speaker 2: really the coordinator in Kansas City. 1226 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:02,960 Speaker 3: Well, we saw something in Philly, didn't we. 1227 01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:07,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, he made Carson Wentz really good before 1228 01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:11,120 Speaker 2: he got hurt. And then the moves he made to 1229 01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 2: put Nick Foles in a position to succeed, scrapping the 1230 01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:18,000 Speaker 2: offense going back in time trying to figure out what 1231 01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:21,560 Speaker 2: is the offense that Nick Foles runs best. They went 1232 01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:24,000 Speaker 2: back to the early time in his Eagles career when 1233 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:27,120 Speaker 2: he put up some astronomical numbers. They put that offense 1234 01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 2: in and they win a Super Bowl. 1235 01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 3: That's coaching. Oh, that's coaching one on one. And we 1236 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 3: talk about it a lot in the NFL. A lot 1237 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:36,160 Speaker 3: of those guys are so set on the systems and 1238 01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:39,960 Speaker 3: not putting their players in the best position to succeed 1239 01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:43,000 Speaker 3: by being stubborn with their systems. But they have a 1240 01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:47,560 Speaker 3: guy like Peterson who obviously is very aware of what 1241 01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:49,280 Speaker 3: his players can do. And I think that's the best 1242 01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:49,919 Speaker 3: sign of a coach. 1243 01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:54,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I think that Jacksonville, even if they 1244 01:00:54,640 --> 01:00:58,439 Speaker 2: take a slight step backwards, don't worry about this team. 1245 01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:02,840 Speaker 2: This team, I mean, every team has deficiencies. Every team 1246 01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:06,480 Speaker 2: needs to strengthen certain areas of weakness. Again, they were 1247 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:08,280 Speaker 2: on a roll at the end of last year to 1248 01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:10,200 Speaker 2: get into the playoffs, winning in those last five in 1249 01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:12,400 Speaker 2: the years. But I do think down the road that 1250 01:01:12,560 --> 01:01:15,680 Speaker 2: Jacksonville will be a perennial playoff contender. What about the 1251 01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:18,640 Speaker 2: Detroit Lions. We're going to get into the Lions because 1252 01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:21,560 Speaker 2: we don't have many seasons where people are talking Detroit 1253 01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:24,480 Speaker 2: Lions as a contender. But that's the case in twenty 1254 01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:27,160 Speaker 2: twenty three. So right now, let's find out what is trending. 1255 01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:30,000 Speaker 2: He is wearing Notre Dame green today, but he says 1256 01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:34,120 Speaker 2: it's US Open tennis. When does the US Open begin 1257 01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:36,080 Speaker 2: in a couple of days. Yes, it does. They're just 1258 01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:41,360 Speaker 2: finishing qualifying right now. The always the men's final has 1259 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:44,680 Speaker 2: coincided with the first week of NFL Sunday, right, this 1260 01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:45,760 Speaker 2: is correct. 1261 01:01:45,880 --> 01:01:46,920 Speaker 3: Yes, that's a tradition. 1262 01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:49,840 Speaker 4: That is a tradition. And you know you're talking about 1263 01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:53,600 Speaker 4: in your great tease. Nobody writes or does them without 1264 01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:56,680 Speaker 4: even writing them teases like you, Yes, off. 1265 01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:58,200 Speaker 2: The top of your ear. Some well known people in 1266 01:01:58,240 --> 01:02:00,760 Speaker 2: this industry that bragged that they write thirteens. 1267 01:02:00,840 --> 01:02:02,959 Speaker 4: Yeah, And so I caught myself there because I said, 1268 01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:04,000 Speaker 4: you're right, but you do not. 1269 01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:07,240 Speaker 2: Let's just make that clear. From the Detroit. 1270 01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:10,920 Speaker 4: Lines to somebody you've been lionizing as a quarterback. 1271 01:02:11,240 --> 01:02:13,520 Speaker 2: Is a segue me. Come on, I don't even have 1272 01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:15,240 Speaker 2: to be set up or it was just it was 1273 01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:15,760 Speaker 2: like a lot. 1274 01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:19,200 Speaker 3: But the next yeah, I mean I trigged ahead. Smash Carrie. 1275 01:02:19,240 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 2: When you hang out with this guy, learn a lot 1276 01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:22,120 Speaker 2: you do. 1277 01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:23,240 Speaker 3: So, yes, you do. 1278 01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:25,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. So who we're talking about? 1279 01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:28,880 Speaker 4: Obviously, Sam Hartman two hundred fifty one yards passing four touchdowns, 1280 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:33,120 Speaker 4: and this number thirteen Notre Dame team is dominating forty 1281 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:35,080 Speaker 4: two to three against Navy two minutes to go in 1282 01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:37,320 Speaker 4: the fourth quarter, game that has over fifty thousand people 1283 01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:41,880 Speaker 4: watching it on hands in Dublin, Ireland, a one sided 1284 01:02:41,920 --> 01:02:46,480 Speaker 4: affair soon to be over, where Navy has forty three 1285 01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 4: yards passing on seven attempts in just three completions. At 1286 01:02:51,760 --> 01:02:55,360 Speaker 4: eight pm Eastern time, another team inside the top twenty five, 1287 01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,880 Speaker 4: number six USC featuring Caleb Williams. They will be on 1288 01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:02,280 Speaker 4: the field at home to host and welcome in San 1289 01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:05,200 Speaker 4: Jose State and that game, of course, as mentioned eight 1290 01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:08,360 Speaker 4: pm Eastern time. With college football in the works with 1291 01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:11,880 Speaker 4: week zero, we do have final preseason games popping up 1292 01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:14,880 Speaker 4: all over the place. In the NFL, the Chiefs silver 1293 01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:18,720 Speaker 4: the Browns thirty three to thirty two. Blaine Gabber one 1294 01:03:18,760 --> 01:03:22,600 Speaker 4: hundred and sixty nine yards passing two touchdowns, sacked once, 1295 01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:27,600 Speaker 4: and Deshaun Watson in a QB in spot duty for Cleveland. 1296 01:03:27,640 --> 01:03:31,200 Speaker 4: Five completions ninety two yards, one interception, two fumbles, one 1297 01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:34,439 Speaker 4: was recovered by the other team. The Bills take care 1298 01:03:34,520 --> 01:03:38,920 Speaker 4: of the Bears twenty four to twenty one. Josh Allen 1299 01:03:39,040 --> 01:03:42,640 Speaker 4: in his limited duty five of seven passing forty nine yards. 1300 01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:45,360 Speaker 4: As far as the Cardinals and Vikings, it was a 1301 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 4: tight one eighteen to seventeen Cards they prevail. Jared Hall 1302 01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:53,880 Speaker 4: was the only one inserted in at quarterback four Minnesota 1303 01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:56,040 Speaker 4: in the entirety of the game, and he was sacked 1304 01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:59,320 Speaker 4: six times and threw it for one hundred and seventy 1305 01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:02,480 Speaker 4: eight yards.

Right? So, Valentine's Day was coming up and 1391 01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:33,080 Speaker 2: we were going to promote a new product at the 1392 01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:35,760 Speaker 2: time called the Vermont Eddy Bear. It's been around a 1393 01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:37,800 Speaker 2: long time, but it was a new product. So I 1394 01:08:37,840 --> 01:08:42,160 Speaker 2: got this idea, and so I told her that, you know, 1395 01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:45,160 Speaker 2: this new sponsor, the Vermont Teddy Bear, actually wants to 1396 01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:50,519 Speaker 2: film a commercial, like a commercial of me giving my 1397 01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:54,160 Speaker 2: girlfriend a Vermont Eddy Bear for Valentine's Day. 1398 01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:57,040 Speaker 3: Okay, So what I did. 1399 01:08:57,000 --> 01:09:00,040 Speaker 2: Was I called the NBC affiliate in San Diego, my 1400 01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:03,200 Speaker 2: dear friend Jim Lazovik, longtime sports anchor at the time, 1401 01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:06,680 Speaker 2: and told him what I was doing.

I actually 1404 01:09:15,479 --> 01:09:18,880 Speaker 2: bought a Vermont teddy Bear. I even arranged for a 1405 01:09:19,040 --> 01:09:21,160 Speaker 2: limo to pick her up from her house to bring 1406 01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:24,040 Speaker 2: her to the station, saying it was all covered by 1407 01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:27,439 Speaker 2: Vermonteddi bear. So she really was there and even had 1408 01:09:27,479 --> 01:09:30,760 Speaker 2: a rose on her seat in this limo. So she 1409 01:09:30,840 --> 01:09:33,320 Speaker 2: gets to the studio, She's all dressed up. I'm dressed 1410 01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:37,479 Speaker 2: up because again she thinks we're filming a commercial. I 1411 01:09:37,520 --> 01:09:40,320 Speaker 2: get it farmer on teddy Bear.

She pulls the bear out, posing for the 1414 01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:52,360 Speaker 2: camera like the Vermont teddy Bear is as cuddly as 1415 01:09:52,680 --> 01:09:53,439 Speaker 2: Steven Jell. 1416 01:09:53,320 --> 01:09:54,240 Speaker 3: You know, one of thing. 1417 01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:57,840 Speaker 2: And I'm you know, my heart's pounding and check O, 1418 01:09:58,280 --> 01:10:01,080 Speaker 2: why why it's the bear holding there?

They had a fireworks show off the eighteenth Fairway 1528 01:15:03,080 --> 01:15:06,280 Speaker 2: at La Costa. Because I was born on the fourth 1529 01:15:06,320 --> 01:15:09,160 Speaker 2: of July, so they knew this and there in May 1530 01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:13,160 Speaker 2: their fireworks going up being shot off the fairway he was. 1531 01:15:13,320 --> 01:15:16,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, he stops.

Once again, we're coming to life from 1535 01:15:24,640 --> 01:15:26,720 Speaker 2: the tiraq dot Com Studious. Let's get back to some 1536 01:15:27,040 --> 01:15:32,880 Speaker 2: real stories here, namely the Detroit Lions. To put in 1537 01:15:32,960 --> 01:15:37,840 Speaker 2: perspective talking about Brandon, how old he was when the 1538 01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:41,360 Speaker 2: engagement happened in Februar eleventh, nineteen ninety three, when I 1539 01:15:41,479 --> 01:15:44,759 Speaker 2: was born. We'll put it this way, the Lion Lions 1540 01:15:44,760 --> 01:15:47,800 Speaker 2: have not won a championship since I was born. They 1541 01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:52,240 Speaker 2: won their last championship in nineteen fifty seven. I came 1542 01:15:52,320 --> 01:15:54,839 Speaker 2: the following year. Maybe I'm a jinx to the Lions. 1543 01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:57,880 Speaker 2: But even more impressive is the fact that not only 1544 01:15:57,920 --> 01:16:00,759 Speaker 2: have the Lions not won an NFL championship since nineteen 1545 01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:05,000 Speaker 2: fifty seven, they've only won one playoff game since nineteen 1546 01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:07,519 Speaker 2: fifty seven. 1547 01:16:07,680 --> 01:16:09,839 Speaker 3: Extreme futility, I mean. 1548 01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:14,240 Speaker 2: Extreme now, this is you know, even the Barry Sanders years, they. 1549 01:16:14,080 --> 01:16:15,760 Speaker 3: Won one playoff game. 1550 01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:19,479 Speaker 2: All right, made the playoffs five times during Barry's ten 1551 01:16:19,520 --> 01:16:23,880 Speaker 2: year run, but only one playoff win. You look at 1552 01:16:23,880 --> 01:16:27,439 Speaker 2: that NFC North right now. The Bears are not good. Yep, 1553 01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:31,680 Speaker 2: the Packers have a new quarterback. The Vikings were a 1554 01:16:31,680 --> 01:16:35,839 Speaker 2: team that was actually outscored last year. It was thirteen 1555 01:16:35,880 --> 01:16:38,760 Speaker 2: and four, they won eleven. They were eleven to zero 1556 01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:41,680 Speaker 2: in one score games. That's not gonna happen again. And 1557 01:16:41,720 --> 01:16:45,680 Speaker 2: then you have the Lions, but again, they are the 1558 01:16:45,800 --> 01:16:50,160 Speaker 2: Lions sort of like the Podrays this year, where everyone 1559 01:16:50,280 --> 01:16:54,160 Speaker 2: was predicting glory for the Podres, there's still the pod Ras. 1560 01:16:54,280 --> 01:16:58,120 Speaker 2: They find ways to lose. I know, Dan Campbell's very popular, 1561 01:16:58,280 --> 01:17:00,639 Speaker 2: love them. He mentioned today it's going to be tough 1562 01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:03,000 Speaker 2: the final cutdown because they're cutting a lot of good players, 1563 01:17:03,040 --> 01:17:05,600 Speaker 2: which is a good thing. We have actually a surplus 1564 01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:06,280 Speaker 2: of good players. 1565 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:06,800 Speaker 3: I know. 1566 01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:09,120 Speaker 2: One thing, their defense better show up this year. Outside 1567 01:17:09,120 --> 01:17:11,560 Speaker 2: of Aiden Hutchinson, they don't have a whole lot defensively. 1568 01:17:12,280 --> 01:17:16,320 Speaker 2: But is this finally the year that we can say, yes, 1569 01:17:17,040 --> 01:17:19,840 Speaker 2: believe in the Lions there for real? 1570 01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:22,720 Speaker 3: This is the year that we say that it's a 1571 01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:25,840 Speaker 3: little bit by default because the division isn't isn't a 1572 01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:28,760 Speaker 3: really good division this year. I mean, I can tell 1573 01:17:28,760 --> 01:17:30,200 Speaker 3: you that it is not a good division right now 1574 01:17:30,200 --> 01:17:33,280 Speaker 3: because I'm still thinking green Bay has a shot to 1575 01:17:33,280 --> 01:17:36,320 Speaker 3: make the playoffs, right so with Jordan Love, because their 1576 01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:39,120 Speaker 3: core is pretty solid and they're bringing a lot of 1577 01:17:39,160 --> 01:17:41,439 Speaker 3: those guys back, but neither here Nord there. This is 1578 01:17:41,479 --> 01:17:45,240 Speaker 3: the year Detroit gets in the playoffs, and not only 1579 01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:47,719 Speaker 3: do they get in the playoffs, I see them winning 1580 01:17:47,720 --> 01:17:49,920 Speaker 3: the game in the playoffs. So that's how I feel 1581 01:17:49,920 --> 01:17:51,920 Speaker 3: about the Lions right now. All right, where is their 1582 01:17:51,960 --> 01:17:54,760 Speaker 3: main threat in this division? Their main threat I think 1583 01:17:54,920 --> 01:17:56,880 Speaker 3: is green Bay? Green Bay. I think. 1584 01:17:56,880 --> 01:17:59,040 Speaker 2: So the kind of rookie season is Jordan Love gonna have. 1585 01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:02,000 Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be it's gonna he's gonna outplay 1586 01:18:02,160 --> 01:18:07,080 Speaker 3: I mean, not rookies, a starter. He's gonna outplay I 1587 01:18:07,120 --> 01:18:10,040 Speaker 3: think the baseline of what people think he's gonna play. 1588 01:18:10,200 --> 01:18:11,880 Speaker 3: I don't think he's gonna be Ganny Rodgers by a 1589 01:18:11,880 --> 01:18:13,400 Speaker 3: long shot. I don't think he's even going to be 1590 01:18:15,160 --> 01:18:17,360 Speaker 3: you know, golf. But I think he's gonna give them 1591 01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:19,680 Speaker 3: a chance to be competitive, and so I would see 1592 01:18:19,720 --> 01:18:22,479 Speaker 3: them being the biggest threat. But that's that's how that's 1593 01:18:22,479 --> 01:18:24,760 Speaker 3: how futile that division is, and I think Detroit is 1594 01:18:24,760 --> 01:18:27,280 Speaker 3: gonna benefit from that. But also a benefit from the 1595 01:18:27,320 --> 01:18:28,960 Speaker 3: fact that they are a really good team as well. 1596 01:18:29,600 --> 01:18:30,240 Speaker 3: Jared Goff. 1597 01:18:30,800 --> 01:18:34,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, Remember, in order to get Matthew Stafford, you not 1598 01:18:34,240 --> 01:18:35,880 Speaker 2: only had to give up golf, you had to give 1599 01:18:35,960 --> 01:18:39,200 Speaker 2: up two number ones, right to get him off the books. 1600 01:18:39,320 --> 01:18:41,720 Speaker 2: I mean, that's how desperate the Rams were to get 1601 01:18:41,840 --> 01:18:45,080 Speaker 2: rid of Jery Goff and get Matthew Stafford. Now they 1602 01:18:45,080 --> 01:18:47,760 Speaker 2: won the Super Bowl, A case closed. Right, if you're 1603 01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:49,800 Speaker 2: a Rams fan, you're like, I can live with it, 1604 01:18:49,880 --> 01:18:53,120 Speaker 2: even if they are terrible. Now the over runners only 1605 01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:55,439 Speaker 2: six and a half this year for the Rams. But 1606 01:18:55,600 --> 01:18:58,160 Speaker 2: Jared Goff, if he does what he did a year 1607 01:18:58,200 --> 01:19:00,680 Speaker 2: ago and builds out on in Detroit, I mean, he 1608 01:19:00,720 --> 01:19:03,960 Speaker 2: could be the Lions quarterback for a lot of years ahead. 1609 01:19:04,040 --> 01:19:07,719 Speaker 3: But that's the beautiful story here. We're acting like golf 1610 01:19:07,840 --> 01:19:11,519 Speaker 3: wasn't successful in la as well. Right, he was fine here. 1611 01:19:11,560 --> 01:19:13,559 Speaker 3: I mean he was especially when Todd Gurley was on 1612 01:19:13,600 --> 01:19:15,760 Speaker 3: top of his head exactly. But that's the point. I mean, 1613 01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:19,320 Speaker 3: a lot of these guys aren't Patrick Mahomes, and these 1614 01:19:19,320 --> 01:19:22,040 Speaker 3: guys need help, and so you build around those guys, 1615 01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:24,800 Speaker 3: and you see Detroit and Dan Campbell, he's given him 1616 01:19:25,120 --> 01:19:27,040 Speaker 3: a level of confidence that he hasn't had in a while, 1617 01:19:27,080 --> 01:19:29,639 Speaker 3: and so he has the tools. He was the top 1618 01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:31,320 Speaker 3: one of the top picks in the draft. He has 1619 01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:33,720 Speaker 3: the tools. So putting them on a really good team 1620 01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:35,080 Speaker 3: is going to be really, really exciting. 1621 01:19:35,080 --> 01:19:37,519 Speaker 2: To see my brother in law Chris, who is a 1622 01:19:37,520 --> 01:19:40,880 Speaker 2: dear friend of Iowa Sam. They hung out together like 1623 01:19:41,120 --> 01:19:43,960 Speaker 2: house and looks like a tight end. He is a 1624 01:19:44,200 --> 01:19:48,719 Speaker 2: lifetime Lions fan, wow, his whole life. In fact, every 1625 01:19:48,800 --> 01:19:51,960 Speaker 2: single year they live in Iowa, he makes the trip 1626 01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:55,680 Speaker 2: to Minnesota to see the Vikings and Lions play. He's 1627 01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:59,200 Speaker 2: been doing that every year forever. It's an annual event 1628 01:20:00,160 --> 01:20:03,000 Speaker 2: for his sake that they finally have a breakout year. 1629 01:20:03,040 --> 01:20:04,519 Speaker 2: But I'm going to say the same thing I said 1630 01:20:04,560 --> 01:20:08,040 Speaker 2: about Jacksonville. I think the Lions have the right coach 1631 01:20:08,160 --> 01:20:10,080 Speaker 2: and I think they have the right ingredients to be 1632 01:20:10,439 --> 01:20:14,080 Speaker 2: a perennial playoff contender. But they could also have a 1633 01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:16,240 Speaker 2: step backwards this year. I don't think it's going to 1634 01:20:16,280 --> 01:20:20,360 Speaker 2: be fatal here.

Adam Kaplan our Fox Sports 1667 01:22:01,600 --> 01:22:04,400 Speaker 2: Radio NFL Insider it's going to be joinny US here 1668 01:22:04,479 --> 01:22:07,720 Speaker 2: in about twenty minutes. I wanted to get to the 1669 01:22:07,720 --> 01:22:11,439 Speaker 2: one non football story that really was a huge story 1670 01:22:11,479 --> 01:22:13,679 Speaker 2: in sports, and that was the arm injury to show 1671 01:22:13,680 --> 01:22:16,960 Speaker 2: hey Otani that has shut him down from a pitching 1672 01:22:17,040 --> 01:22:20,679 Speaker 2: standpoint for the rest of the year. We don't really 1673 01:22:20,680 --> 01:22:23,679 Speaker 2: have a full idea of the full extent of the injury. 1674 01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:28,599 Speaker 2: Remember he had Tommy John surgery five years ago, and 1675 01:22:28,960 --> 01:22:31,880 Speaker 2: we don't know if he has to go back that road. 1676 01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:35,639 Speaker 2: But the timing is interesting. I'm not going to say 1677 01:22:35,640 --> 01:22:38,040 Speaker 2: it's the worst thing possible for him, but it's an 1678 01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:41,200 Speaker 2: interesting timing because obviously he's a free agent at the 1679 01:22:41,320 --> 01:22:43,479 Speaker 2: end of the year, and there's a big difference between 1680 01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:49,480 Speaker 2: sho Hey Otani pitcher, slash DH and show hey Otani 1681 01:22:50,040 --> 01:22:56,080 Speaker 2: DH only absolutely, I mean some teams are going to 1682 01:22:56,160 --> 01:22:58,920 Speaker 2: have to look at it. Only takes two teams to 1683 01:22:59,000 --> 01:23:03,599 Speaker 2: suddenly really go for it, and he could still make 1684 01:23:03,680 --> 01:23:10,080 Speaker 2: a record salary. But if he's only at EH bed discussion, 1685 01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:12,760 Speaker 2: he's going to be grossly overpaid. I mentioned the fact 1686 01:23:13,080 --> 01:23:16,240 Speaker 2: a couple of times about how long can he keep 1687 01:23:16,280 --> 01:23:20,800 Speaker 2: this up? Even if he had not suffered the arm 1688 01:23:20,880 --> 01:23:23,760 Speaker 2: injury I was looking at because I'm looking at him 1689 01:23:23,760 --> 01:23:26,920 Speaker 2: because he's had obviously some arm troubles during his career. 1690 01:23:27,479 --> 01:23:30,160 Speaker 2: He's not the starting pitcher that's going to start thirty 1691 01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:33,120 Speaker 2: plus games a year, especially if you want him for 1692 01:23:33,240 --> 01:23:36,440 Speaker 2: the real games exactly. I mean, when you have potentially 1693 01:23:36,479 --> 01:23:38,720 Speaker 2: four rounds of the playoffs, you're looking at six or 1694 01:23:38,760 --> 01:23:43,759 Speaker 2: seven postseason starts. So he's really about a twenty five 1695 01:23:43,960 --> 01:23:48,240 Speaker 2: game starter pitching over the regular season. Take that into account. 1696 01:23:48,280 --> 01:23:51,559 Speaker 2: Obviously can be a full time DH. But it's going 1697 01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:55,720 Speaker 2: to be interesting to see how teams approach this. What's 1698 01:23:55,720 --> 01:23:57,719 Speaker 2: your guess, I mean, is there a chance he stays 1699 01:23:57,760 --> 01:23:59,439 Speaker 2: with the Angels or is he still going to make 1700 01:23:59,479 --> 01:24:00,000 Speaker 2: the big money? 1701 01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:01,639 Speaker 3: How is this going to play still no, he's still 1702 01:24:01,640 --> 01:24:04,720 Speaker 3: going to make the big money. He's such a he's 1703 01:24:04,760 --> 01:24:08,000 Speaker 3: such a game changer, obviously. I think for me, if 1704 01:24:08,040 --> 01:24:11,080 Speaker 3: I was somebody a GM coming to get a talent 1705 01:24:11,160 --> 01:24:14,960 Speaker 3: like show, Hey, twenty five games, there's definitely a cap 1706 01:24:15,040 --> 01:24:17,479 Speaker 3: on pitching for me. Yes, it has to be. He's 1707 01:24:17,479 --> 01:24:21,160 Speaker 3: such a valuable pitcher, but he's such a valuable hitter 1708 01:24:21,200 --> 01:24:22,600 Speaker 3: as well, and so you bring him on as a 1709 01:24:22,640 --> 01:24:24,920 Speaker 3: DH as well. I mean, he's got it with forty 1710 01:24:24,920 --> 01:24:25,400 Speaker 3: home runs. 1711 01:24:25,400 --> 01:24:27,160 Speaker 2: He's a guy that he's cleaning the majors with forty 1712 01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:27,679 Speaker 2: four home. 1713 01:24:28,479 --> 01:24:32,680 Speaker 3: He's going to improve your your outfit as soon as 1714 01:24:32,720 --> 01:24:35,400 Speaker 3: he walks in the room. So I think that's the 1715 01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:37,320 Speaker 3: language in the contract is going to have to be 1716 01:24:37,360 --> 01:24:40,680 Speaker 3: really exact. And if I'm bringing them in, I'm not 1717 01:24:40,720 --> 01:24:42,559 Speaker 3: letting them pitch up with twenty five games. I'm gonna, 1718 01:24:43,160 --> 01:24:45,840 Speaker 3: you know, spread that out and make sure he's in 1719 01:24:45,880 --> 01:24:47,320 Speaker 3: the lineup as a hitter for me because he's that 1720 01:24:47,360 --> 01:24:49,800 Speaker 3: good at that as well. Well. 1721 01:24:49,840 --> 01:24:51,680 Speaker 2: You're really going to have to get a physical on him. 1722 01:24:51,800 --> 01:24:54,880 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, look, he's by the way, he's 1723 01:24:54,920 --> 01:24:57,320 Speaker 2: going to continue to play. The season isn't done. It's 1724 01:24:57,360 --> 01:25:00,280 Speaker 2: going to dh for the rest of the year. As 1725 01:25:00,280 --> 01:25:02,800 Speaker 2: far as pitching, he's pitched his last game this season. Now, 1726 01:25:02,960 --> 01:25:06,840 Speaker 2: I don't know about off season surgery. If he has surgery, 1727 01:25:06,920 --> 01:25:09,240 Speaker 2: it's different than let's say it's something that can heal 1728 01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:11,519 Speaker 2: on its own, and then he figures to be one 1729 01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:14,360 Speaker 2: hundred percent once the season begins. These are all factors 1730 01:25:14,720 --> 01:25:20,599 Speaker 2: because again, his greatest value to any team, as big 1731 01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:24,320 Speaker 2: as his bat is, is as a pitcher. There just 1732 01:25:24,479 --> 01:25:27,960 Speaker 2: aren't a lot of starting pitchers that are the caliber 1733 01:25:28,040 --> 01:25:29,160 Speaker 2: of sho Heyo Tani. 1734 01:25:29,360 --> 01:25:31,920 Speaker 3: What's his actual diagnosis the game with the elbow? What? 1735 01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:32,559 Speaker 3: What was it? 1736 01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:34,559 Speaker 2: It was a it's an elbow. 1737 01:25:34,680 --> 01:25:36,360 Speaker 3: What would the exact injury? 1738 01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:39,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, let me get me because I heard about it 1739 01:25:39,200 --> 01:25:42,160 Speaker 2: and with some kind of strain, or let me see 1740 01:25:42,240 --> 01:25:45,320 Speaker 2: this O tawny injury here, I might make sure l 1741 01:25:45,479 --> 01:25:48,680 Speaker 2: that's right. It was the UCL. Now you're familiar with UCL. 1742 01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:51,639 Speaker 3: And so my question would be is if they were 1743 01:25:51,680 --> 01:25:54,240 Speaker 3: in the thick of the playoff race, would he be 1744 01:25:54,320 --> 01:25:57,320 Speaker 3: on the shelf or they shelfing him for other reasons 1745 01:25:57,400 --> 01:25:58,040 Speaker 3: right now as well? 1746 01:25:58,439 --> 01:25:58,559 Speaker 4: Well? 1747 01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:00,839 Speaker 2: First of all, the Angels aren't going to be any playoffs. 1748 01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:01,400 Speaker 3: They're done. 1749 01:26:02,240 --> 01:26:04,479 Speaker 2: That is out the window. All right, so explain to 1750 01:26:04,560 --> 01:26:10,639 Speaker 2: us a UCL tear. So they're saying it's a UCL tear. 1751 01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:14,439 Speaker 2: Now he had Tommy John surgery five years ago. What 1752 01:26:14,760 --> 01:26:16,920 Speaker 2: are we talking about the UCL tear. 1753 01:26:16,960 --> 01:26:20,280 Speaker 3: It's just you're not able to all the muscles surrounding 1754 01:26:20,320 --> 01:26:23,360 Speaker 3: that are it's detached from that, so there will be. 1755 01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:25,400 Speaker 2: Why does it not effect is hitting? Then? 1756 01:26:25,640 --> 01:26:27,840 Speaker 3: Oh? Yeah, because it's the arm angle. It depends on 1757 01:26:27,880 --> 01:26:29,840 Speaker 3: how he's throwing the ball. I mean, normally you can 1758 01:26:29,960 --> 01:26:32,559 Speaker 3: do all the things with the UCL still, but. 1759 01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:35,639 Speaker 2: He was having blistered problems. There was a multitude problem 1760 01:26:35,680 --> 01:26:38,320 Speaker 2: when you're throwing the ball one hundred miles an hour. Also, 1761 01:26:38,720 --> 01:26:41,320 Speaker 2: is some of his breaking stuff is nasty and he's 1762 01:26:41,320 --> 01:26:42,479 Speaker 2: throwing that stuff hard. 1763 01:26:42,880 --> 01:26:45,799 Speaker 3: Is those arm angles hard? Yes, and so that would 1764 01:26:46,080 --> 01:26:48,360 Speaker 3: there would be pain there. It would also be moments 1765 01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:50,679 Speaker 3: where where it feels like it's catching, so it would 1766 01:26:50,720 --> 01:26:53,160 Speaker 3: be uncomfortable. It's not like it's an unbearable pain. 1767 01:26:53,320 --> 01:26:55,200 Speaker 2: Is this an injury that can heal on its own 1768 01:26:55,280 --> 01:26:58,120 Speaker 2: or is it something that can only be corrected with surgery? 1769 01:26:58,400 --> 01:27:00,800 Speaker 3: Oh? That one, I don't know. Yeah, I'm not sure. 1770 01:27:01,360 --> 01:27:05,040 Speaker 8: It's the Olner collateral ligament is what UCL stands for. 1771 01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:07,240 Speaker 2: So are they saying Brandon that he's going to have 1772 01:27:07,360 --> 01:27:09,920 Speaker 2: surgery or what's what's he's probably going to need surgery 1773 01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:14,240 Speaker 2: usually a UCL tier. Yeah, it calls for Tommy John surgery. Okay, 1774 01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:17,040 Speaker 2: I got it. I would guess the Angels are done. 1775 01:27:17,080 --> 01:27:18,960 Speaker 2: I think you have like a two percent chance of 1776 01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:20,960 Speaker 2: making the playoffs, which almost is zero. 1777 01:27:21,120 --> 01:27:24,000 Speaker 8: So you can still swing though, you can still swing 1778 01:27:24,040 --> 01:27:26,639 Speaker 8: a bat, and he's still. 1779 01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:28,759 Speaker 2: Out there swinging, Like you said, at least the majors 1780 01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:29,439 Speaker 2: in home runs. 1781 01:27:29,520 --> 01:27:33,160 Speaker 8: Bryce Harper recovered from a UCL same similar injury. 1782 01:27:33,520 --> 01:27:36,240 Speaker 3: But how long is it recovered? Well, again, he's. 1783 01:27:37,080 --> 01:27:40,479 Speaker 8: For pitching is like over a year. But for hitters 1784 01:27:40,520 --> 01:27:43,840 Speaker 8: like Bryce Harper, he actually broke the record. He came 1785 01:27:43,880 --> 01:27:44,639 Speaker 8: back the quickest. 1786 01:27:44,800 --> 01:27:46,960 Speaker 2: I remember this, So that's what he had right he 1787 01:27:47,040 --> 01:27:49,080 Speaker 2: was out, like yeah, he was only out like seven months. 1788 01:27:49,200 --> 01:27:50,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, but he wasn't pitching. 1789 01:27:50,360 --> 01:27:52,519 Speaker 4: And the stats for pitchers coming back from a second 1790 01:27:52,600 --> 01:27:55,759 Speaker 4: Tommy John a second UCL, they're not they're not great. 1791 01:27:55,920 --> 01:27:57,920 Speaker 2: Like you can usually get by on one Tommy John, 1792 01:27:57,960 --> 01:28:00,120 Speaker 2: but when the second one hits, it's really bad. When 1793 01:28:00,200 --> 01:28:03,559 Speaker 2: Verlander sat out an entire year at age what thirty eight, 1794 01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:07,320 Speaker 2: came back with that cy young season last year for Houston. 1795 01:28:07,640 --> 01:28:09,880 Speaker 2: I'm always suspicious of anything that happens to Houston. 1796 01:28:09,920 --> 01:28:11,200 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, it's hard. 1797 01:28:11,520 --> 01:28:13,479 Speaker 2: It's hard for me not to be suspicious of what's 1798 01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:16,439 Speaker 2: happening in Houston. And by the way, it's amazing Verlander 1799 01:28:16,479 --> 01:28:21,640 Speaker 2: goes back to Houston and suddenly this amazing something in 1800 01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:25,080 Speaker 2: the water there, I guess in Houston. Well, I again, 1801 01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:28,519 Speaker 2: somebody's gonna roll the dice on this. There's no question 1802 01:28:28,600 --> 01:28:31,800 Speaker 2: about that. Even if he is shut down from a 1803 01:28:31,840 --> 01:28:35,160 Speaker 2: pitching standpoint, it actually could work in your favor. I mean, 1804 01:28:35,200 --> 01:28:37,920 Speaker 2: look at the Dodgers right now. The Dodgers are flying 1805 01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:41,759 Speaker 2: along like usual. They've had all kinds of injuries. Bueller's 1806 01:28:41,760 --> 01:28:43,760 Speaker 2: been out all year. They're hoping that he's going to 1807 01:28:43,800 --> 01:28:47,320 Speaker 2: be back late in the season. They just lost Gonsolin 1808 01:28:47,400 --> 01:28:50,360 Speaker 2: for the year. May was out for the year. Arias 1809 01:28:50,400 --> 01:28:53,240 Speaker 2: has been up and down all season long. Kershaw was 1810 01:28:53,240 --> 01:28:55,000 Speaker 2: shut down for part of the year. It doesn't matter 1811 01:28:55,000 --> 01:28:56,840 Speaker 2: if they can get guys healthy at the end of 1812 01:28:56,880 --> 01:28:59,320 Speaker 2: the year. If they can bring back Bueller and he 1813 01:28:59,360 --> 01:29:02,680 Speaker 2: can actually get a couple starts in going into the postseason, 1814 01:29:03,160 --> 01:29:07,280 Speaker 2: changes their fortune. So having Otani out for half the 1815 01:29:07,400 --> 01:29:10,840 Speaker 2: year as long as he's still daching and got that 1816 01:29:10,840 --> 01:29:11,559 Speaker 2: bad in the line. 1817 01:29:11,520 --> 01:29:13,840 Speaker 3: I was about to say, yeah, you're losing. You're losing 1818 01:29:14,120 --> 01:29:16,280 Speaker 3: one aspect of what he does, but you're still getting 1819 01:29:16,320 --> 01:29:18,559 Speaker 3: a guy that obviously can still play right now with 1820 01:29:18,600 --> 01:29:20,040 Speaker 3: the injury. So he's going to be able to play. 1821 01:29:20,040 --> 01:29:21,160 Speaker 3: It's not like he's missing time. 1822 01:29:21,880 --> 01:29:24,519 Speaker 2: But it's still a big risk, right, I mean think 1823 01:29:24,520 --> 01:29:28,320 Speaker 2: about it. Isn't there a possibility that he could still 1824 01:29:28,400 --> 01:29:31,000 Speaker 2: further injure himself even if he's just hitting. 1825 01:29:32,520 --> 01:29:35,479 Speaker 3: I would think so if if Bryce Harper set out 1826 01:29:35,600 --> 01:29:38,639 Speaker 3: for all this time, right, yeah, but I think that's 1827 01:29:38,680 --> 01:29:40,639 Speaker 3: going to be attributed after the season. If he needs 1828 01:29:40,680 --> 01:29:43,800 Speaker 3: the surgery, which you know was Brandon just said, then 1829 01:29:43,800 --> 01:29:44,840 Speaker 3: that's that's a risk. 1830 01:29:45,080 --> 01:29:47,800 Speaker 2: Wow. Well we'll see how that plays out, all right. 1831 01:29:47,840 --> 01:29:50,600 Speaker 2: Coming up on the other side, this man has been everywhere. 1832 01:29:50,680 --> 01:29:54,320 Speaker 2: He has been covering all of the different NFL training camps. 1833 01:29:54,680 --> 01:29:59,040 Speaker 2: We got one last week of preseason football.

And Adam, I 1850 01:30:54,880 --> 01:30:57,120 Speaker 2: can't believe. I'm still trying to figure out why we 1851 01:30:57,200 --> 01:31:00,360 Speaker 2: have a dead week between the end of the priests and. 1852 01:31:01,040 --> 01:31:01,599 Speaker 3: On this start. 1853 01:31:01,680 --> 01:31:03,960 Speaker 2: I didn't even realize that a couple of years ago. 1854 01:31:03,800 --> 01:31:05,599 Speaker 3: And the last year, I'm like, we're the games. 1855 01:31:05,960 --> 01:31:08,800 Speaker 10: I know, it's tough. We got called football. I know, 1856 01:31:09,080 --> 01:31:12,360 Speaker 10: I called hump week or you know, the lead week. Yeah, 1857 01:31:12,680 --> 01:31:14,160 Speaker 10: it's kind of weird. I mean it's for those of 1858 01:31:14,240 --> 01:31:15,840 Speaker 10: us who've been on the road, like myself for four 1859 01:31:15,840 --> 01:31:17,960 Speaker 10: weeks a better part of it. It's time to kind 1860 01:31:17,960 --> 01:31:20,879 Speaker 10: of catch up. But we've got to move to Tuesday, 1861 01:31:20,960 --> 01:31:23,439 Speaker 10: when we get down to fifty three man rosters for 1862 01:31:23,560 --> 01:31:26,759 Speaker 10: initially by four pm Eastern and then it practice squats 1863 01:31:26,760 --> 01:31:29,800 Speaker 10: the next day. But yeah, clubs now are there. It's 1864 01:31:29,840 --> 01:31:32,080 Speaker 10: all about week one and who they're matching up against, 1865 01:31:32,120 --> 01:31:34,720 Speaker 10: and that's what they're they're pointing to. And then we've 1866 01:31:34,720 --> 01:31:36,679 Speaker 10: got some players who still have not signed new deals, 1867 01:31:36,720 --> 01:31:40,160 Speaker 10: which has been fascinating, and boy, without a deadline, man, 1868 01:31:40,360 --> 01:31:42,000 Speaker 10: things just don't seem to get done. 1869 01:31:42,320 --> 01:31:42,679 Speaker 3: Adam. 1870 01:31:42,720 --> 01:31:44,559 Speaker 2: A couple of years ago, we're all talking about what 1871 01:31:44,640 --> 01:31:46,719 Speaker 2: are the forty nine ers gonna do with that third 1872 01:31:46,760 --> 01:31:49,400 Speaker 2: overall pick? You can trade three number ones a third, 1873 01:31:49,439 --> 01:31:51,400 Speaker 2: you move up, and then all of a sudden we 1874 01:31:51,400 --> 01:31:53,920 Speaker 2: heard Mac Jones. I'm like Mac Jones, I mean, do 1875 01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:56,760 Speaker 2: you like him? I mean, I mean Mac Jones. You're 1876 01:31:56,800 --> 01:31:59,960 Speaker 2: gonna move up for Mac Jones. And then it turned 1877 01:31:59,920 --> 01:32:03,320 Speaker 2: out to be Trey Lance and now he is an 1878 01:32:03,320 --> 01:32:07,880 Speaker 2: ex forty nine er. Let's pull back the curtain here. 1879 01:32:07,960 --> 01:32:10,679 Speaker 2: I mean, obviously the forty nine ers are just getting 1880 01:32:11,160 --> 01:32:15,599 Speaker 2: destroyed as the worst draft pick ever considering how much 1881 01:32:15,720 --> 01:32:18,880 Speaker 2: draft capital they gave up to get Trey Lance. But 1882 01:32:18,920 --> 01:32:23,080 Speaker 2: what is the real story on why they weren't amorated 1883 01:32:23,080 --> 01:32:25,400 Speaker 2: with Trey Lance, why they were willing to give us 1884 01:32:25,439 --> 01:32:28,719 Speaker 2: so much draft capital to get to him, and why 1885 01:32:28,760 --> 01:32:30,920 Speaker 2: did they give up on him when they did. 1886 01:32:31,120 --> 01:32:32,479 Speaker 10: All right, we're going to take We got to go 1887 01:32:32,520 --> 01:32:33,920 Speaker 10: through everything here. This is going to take a little 1888 01:32:33,920 --> 01:32:35,559 Speaker 10: bit of time here. So let me go back to 1889 01:32:35,600 --> 01:32:37,479 Speaker 10: the twenty one draft. And I talked to a general 1890 01:32:37,520 --> 01:32:41,439 Speaker 10: manager recently. He was actually at the workout for Trey 1891 01:32:41,520 --> 01:32:44,080 Speaker 10: Lance at North Dakota State in the spring of twenty 1892 01:32:44,080 --> 01:32:47,240 Speaker 10: twenty one, and he told me, look, if you watch 1893 01:32:47,360 --> 01:32:50,519 Speaker 10: them there, you confirmed what you saw on tape. He 1894 01:32:50,560 --> 01:32:52,439 Speaker 10: was only a one year starter anyway, just over one 1895 01:32:52,479 --> 01:32:53,960 Speaker 10: year at North Kota State. 1896 01:32:54,320 --> 01:32:54,840 Speaker 2: Very raw. 1897 01:32:55,920 --> 01:32:58,440 Speaker 10: You love the skill set in terms of you armstrength, athleticism, 1898 01:32:58,720 --> 01:33:01,080 Speaker 10: A pretty high character kid. 1899 01:33:01,560 --> 01:33:01,680 Speaker 8: Uh. 1900 01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:03,479 Speaker 10: This GM said, Look, he's got to sif for two 1901 01:33:03,560 --> 01:33:05,000 Speaker 10: years if you were going to draft him. That's simple 1902 01:33:05,040 --> 01:33:07,320 Speaker 10: as that he just won't be ready. And the hope 1903 01:33:07,439 --> 01:33:09,479 Speaker 10: is and then the year two, hopefully he's your back up. 1904 01:33:09,600 --> 01:33:12,360 Speaker 10: Year three he'll start well let's not forget as we 1905 01:33:12,439 --> 01:33:14,920 Speaker 10: fast forward it. Lance was going to be their starter 1906 01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:16,960 Speaker 10: until he got hurt. He was their starting, and then 1907 01:33:16,960 --> 01:33:20,800 Speaker 10: he got hurt. They smartly kept Garoppolo, and then what 1908 01:33:20,920 --> 01:33:24,360 Speaker 10: happened was, uh, the number two quarterbacks should have been 1909 01:33:24,800 --> 01:33:27,519 Speaker 10: should have been Nate Sudfeld, but they cut him and 1910 01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:31,479 Speaker 10: everything rolled downhill, and then somehow they went to Brock 1911 01:33:31,520 --> 01:33:33,479 Speaker 10: perty as you know, because they were forced two, they 1912 01:33:33,560 --> 01:33:36,320 Speaker 10: ran out of quarterbacks, and for a short period of 1913 01:33:36,320 --> 01:33:38,920 Speaker 10: time he was terrific. I mean, thrown into a playoff race, 1914 01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:41,680 Speaker 10: he was remarkable. But what the Niners did, and this 1915 01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:43,920 Speaker 10: is what my talks with him right after that Eagles 1916 01:33:43,960 --> 01:33:47,080 Speaker 10: game here in Philly said, so, I said, someone high 1917 01:33:47,120 --> 01:33:49,280 Speaker 10: up with the Niners said, hey, so you're looking forward 1918 01:33:49,280 --> 01:33:50,720 Speaker 10: to the U when brockets back. 1919 01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:52,760 Speaker 2: We'll have to see when he can get back. 1920 01:33:52,800 --> 01:33:54,719 Speaker 10: You about the you know, in terms of the competition, 1921 01:33:54,760 --> 01:33:55,839 Speaker 10: because there won't be a competition. 1922 01:33:55,880 --> 01:33:57,640 Speaker 2: He's their starter. You know, you have to understand you're 1923 01:33:57,680 --> 01:34:00,320 Speaker 2: not being around him like we have. He's our guy. 1924 01:34:00,360 --> 01:34:02,880 Speaker 10: I'm like, yeah, but what about Lance is like, well, 1925 01:34:02,880 --> 01:34:05,880 Speaker 10: when Trey's healthy, he'll be our backup. I was kind 1926 01:34:05,880 --> 01:34:08,840 Speaker 10: of dumbfounded. But I understood and I got the reasons why. 1927 01:34:09,520 --> 01:34:14,480 Speaker 10: Pretty great leader did unbelievably well under pressure. Players responded 1928 01:34:14,520 --> 01:34:17,360 Speaker 10: to him, handled everything that was thrown at him. They 1929 01:34:17,400 --> 01:34:20,760 Speaker 10: wanted to see this thing through, which, obviously, as you're 1930 01:34:20,760 --> 01:34:22,920 Speaker 10: bringing up Steve would well then say, well, wait a minute, 1931 01:34:22,920 --> 01:34:25,920 Speaker 10: you gave you, you swapped ones, you gave A two, 1932 01:34:25,920 --> 01:34:27,880 Speaker 10: future twos and a three. How in the world are 1933 01:34:27,920 --> 01:34:32,040 Speaker 10: you not going to open this competition? The person said 1934 01:34:32,040 --> 01:34:33,800 Speaker 10: to me, it's real simple. We have our guy of 1935 01:34:33,840 --> 01:34:35,800 Speaker 10: the future, and I just was kind of like, why 1936 01:34:35,840 --> 01:34:38,360 Speaker 10: would you not open it up? But I can only 1937 01:34:38,360 --> 01:34:39,960 Speaker 10: go by what I was told privately at which I'm 1938 01:34:39,960 --> 01:34:40,760 Speaker 10: telling you right now. 1939 01:34:41,080 --> 01:34:43,560 Speaker 3: Well, it's pretty crazy. Yeah, that story is. It's remarkable 1940 01:34:43,600 --> 01:34:46,439 Speaker 3: when you hearing you say. Even the plan or the 1941 01:34:46,479 --> 01:34:49,160 Speaker 3: reports you know, from other gms out there were saying 1942 01:34:49,160 --> 01:34:51,479 Speaker 3: that he'd be your guy by year three. This is 1943 01:34:51,560 --> 01:34:53,519 Speaker 3: year three now, so I know to not even give 1944 01:34:53,600 --> 01:34:55,719 Speaker 3: him that chance to carry he was their. 1945 01:34:55,600 --> 01:34:57,280 Speaker 2: Guy year first of all. He was their guy year too, 1946 01:34:57,280 --> 01:34:57,680 Speaker 2: and they not. 1947 01:34:57,600 --> 01:34:59,719 Speaker 3: Got hurt exactly, And that's the other. 1948 01:34:59,560 --> 01:35:01,479 Speaker 2: Part Hotel appreciate they would have been. 1949 01:35:01,479 --> 01:35:03,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, we talk about not having enough take not having 1950 01:35:03,479 --> 01:35:07,040 Speaker 3: enough equity put into this thing to even know what 1951 01:35:07,160 --> 01:35:09,840 Speaker 3: you have, it's remarkable. But let's move on from that 1952 01:35:09,920 --> 01:35:14,639 Speaker 3: to another another situation that popped up this weekend where 1953 01:35:15,040 --> 01:35:18,880 Speaker 3: Josh Jacobs has finally signed this contracting. The Raiders got 1954 01:35:18,920 --> 01:35:20,720 Speaker 3: that done. Tell us about that a little bit. 1955 01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:23,920 Speaker 10: Yeah, So what happened was, this is not We've got 1956 01:35:23,920 --> 01:35:25,720 Speaker 10: to go back in time here. So I'd heard at 1957 01:35:25,720 --> 01:35:27,920 Speaker 10: the Super Bowl, believe or not, that they were probably 1958 01:35:27,960 --> 01:35:29,920 Speaker 10: going to put their tag on him and not negotiate 1959 01:35:29,960 --> 01:35:34,240 Speaker 10: prior to the tag deadline of late February, and that's 1960 01:35:34,280 --> 01:35:37,559 Speaker 10: what happened. So I'm like, Okay, well they it sounds 1961 01:35:37,560 --> 01:35:39,400 Speaker 10: like they're probably going to want him to play one 1962 01:35:39,439 --> 01:35:39,720 Speaker 10: year deal. 1963 01:35:39,800 --> 01:35:40,719 Speaker 2: But let's see what happens. 1964 01:35:42,040 --> 01:35:45,960 Speaker 10: I mean, the Giants made a much better effort than 1965 01:35:46,000 --> 01:35:50,320 Speaker 10: the Raiders did of extending Barkley's contract when comparatively to 1966 01:35:50,439 --> 01:35:54,559 Speaker 10: Josh Jacobs the offer, and they didn't make any offers 1967 01:35:54,560 --> 01:35:56,880 Speaker 10: the Raiders until the final week to ten days I'm 1968 01:35:56,920 --> 01:36:00,200 Speaker 10: told of the July seventeenth deadline to extend off one 1969 01:36:00,280 --> 01:36:04,400 Speaker 10: year franchise tag. The guarantee structure year two with so 1970 01:36:04,520 --> 01:36:08,000 Speaker 10: team friendly was embarrassing. It was basically a one year structure. Now, 1971 01:36:08,400 --> 01:36:11,680 Speaker 10: to their credit, to the agent's credit, they found a compromise. 1972 01:36:11,800 --> 01:36:15,120 Speaker 10: They got an enhanced one year deal. It's a little 1973 01:36:15,160 --> 01:36:19,360 Speaker 10: bit better than the Barkley deal. So much so that 1974 01:36:19,400 --> 01:36:22,720 Speaker 10: he can make twenty six million over two seasons off 1975 01:36:22,760 --> 01:36:24,479 Speaker 10: of the TAG, which is better than the TAG number. 1976 01:36:24,520 --> 01:36:27,240 Speaker 10: It's actually better. We've not seen this before, so I 1977 01:36:27,280 --> 01:36:30,120 Speaker 10: give his agent credit. But the fact of matter is 1978 01:36:31,520 --> 01:36:33,160 Speaker 10: they wanted to go year to year. That's what they're 1979 01:36:33,200 --> 01:36:34,840 Speaker 10: doing here. It's very clear to me, and I think 1980 01:36:34,840 --> 01:36:36,720 Speaker 10: part of it, guys is they'll never say this, but 1981 01:36:36,760 --> 01:36:39,439 Speaker 10: this has been my feeling talking to people close the situation. 1982 01:36:40,280 --> 01:36:42,640 Speaker 10: This front office did not draft Josh Jacobs. They have 1983 01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:44,519 Speaker 10: no allegiance to the player. Yeah, they know he put 1984 01:36:44,520 --> 01:36:47,519 Speaker 10: the team with Superman last season. He was unbelievable. What 1985 01:36:47,560 --> 01:36:50,559 Speaker 10: he did was one of the best jobs in raater history. 1986 01:36:50,600 --> 01:36:52,719 Speaker 10: The running back position. You can go through Marcus Allen, 1987 01:36:52,800 --> 01:36:54,880 Speaker 10: some of the great running backs, but this is a 1988 01:36:54,920 --> 01:36:57,520 Speaker 10: great job that he did. They were not competitive without him. 1989 01:36:57,880 --> 01:37:00,519 Speaker 10: But the fact of matter is when you look at 1990 01:37:00,520 --> 01:37:04,920 Speaker 10: this position and as he goes into his fifth year here, 1991 01:37:06,040 --> 01:37:09,360 Speaker 10: it's just these running backs fall off the cliff. Usually 1992 01:37:09,640 --> 01:37:11,400 Speaker 10: you're six or seven. It's very rare for a guy 1993 01:37:11,439 --> 01:37:13,200 Speaker 10: to play at an elite level by your sevens. 1994 01:37:13,240 --> 01:37:15,040 Speaker 2: The way it is, all right, speaking of running backs, 1995 01:37:15,080 --> 01:37:18,040 Speaker 2: Jonathan Taylor, so he seems to be the last unfinished 1996 01:37:18,040 --> 01:37:20,400 Speaker 2: business here as far as he's running backs are concern 1997 01:37:20,520 --> 01:37:24,040 Speaker 2: and Kary and I were talking earlier about the Anthony 1998 01:37:24,120 --> 01:37:29,200 Speaker 2: Richardson situation, and if you take Jonathan Taylor out of 1999 01:37:29,240 --> 01:37:33,920 Speaker 2: the mix, wow, I'm really going to make it tough 2000 01:37:33,960 --> 01:37:37,879 Speaker 2: for a very raw rookie quarterback. But what's the latest. 2001 01:37:37,920 --> 01:37:40,160 Speaker 2: Is he going to be a Miami Dolphin? What kind 2002 01:37:40,160 --> 01:37:42,479 Speaker 2: of offers are there out there? There was some reports 2003 01:37:42,520 --> 01:37:46,719 Speaker 2: the Dolphins actually did call the Raiders about Josh Jacobs 2004 01:37:46,760 --> 01:37:50,919 Speaker 2: and they insisted they weren't trading them. The Taylor situation 2005 01:37:51,040 --> 01:37:53,719 Speaker 2: seems to be different. But what's the latest on his Yeah, 2006 01:37:53,760 --> 01:37:55,360 Speaker 2: so a couple of things here. 2007 01:37:55,400 --> 01:37:58,799 Speaker 10: So he was here with the cults when they practiced 2008 01:37:58,840 --> 01:38:01,040 Speaker 10: with the Eagles, not wearing any cult stuff. It's kind 2009 01:38:01,040 --> 01:38:04,720 Speaker 10: of weird. So look, here's the way I understand it. 2010 01:38:04,800 --> 01:38:07,479 Speaker 10: As of the last hour, the Dolphins are the one 2011 01:38:07,479 --> 01:38:10,360 Speaker 10: team to watch here. They're just barring something unforeseen. Yes, 2012 01:38:10,400 --> 01:38:13,120 Speaker 10: I understand how the teams could come in. They were 2013 01:38:13,160 --> 01:38:15,439 Speaker 10: heavy into Dalvin Cook, but he got a better deal 2014 01:38:15,479 --> 01:38:17,400 Speaker 10: with the Jets. They had a certain number in mind, 2015 01:38:17,439 --> 01:38:21,880 Speaker 10: because remember Dalvin Cook is twenty eight years old. But 2016 01:38:22,120 --> 01:38:24,280 Speaker 10: when you come to Jonathan Taylor here and the reason 2017 01:38:24,360 --> 01:38:26,400 Speaker 10: why the cults are not getting what they'd like to 2018 01:38:26,400 --> 01:38:30,400 Speaker 10: get is because a you have to extend his deal. 2019 01:38:30,800 --> 01:38:33,080 Speaker 10: The deal out he'll be looking for from talking to 2020 01:38:33,080 --> 01:38:35,240 Speaker 10: people will be at least fifteen million a year. That's 2021 01:38:35,240 --> 01:38:38,760 Speaker 10: what Alvin Kamara got three years ago. Alvin Kamara is 2022 01:38:38,760 --> 01:38:40,759 Speaker 10: the second ice paid running back to the National Football 2023 01:38:40,800 --> 01:38:44,640 Speaker 10: League fifteen million a year, Christian McCaffrey sixteen point zhe 2024 01:38:44,680 --> 01:38:45,280 Speaker 10: to five million. 2025 01:38:45,280 --> 01:38:46,240 Speaker 2: No one's come close to that. 2026 01:38:46,280 --> 01:38:50,880 Speaker 10: Derrick Henry is the closest at twelve five Derek Henry's 2027 01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:53,320 Speaker 10: deal with three years ago. I mean, these running back deals, 2028 01:38:53,320 --> 01:38:56,040 Speaker 10: guys are not getting it better, they're getting worse. Miles 2029 01:38:56,040 --> 01:38:57,960 Speaker 10: Sanders of the Panthers got the best free agent deal 2030 01:38:58,479 --> 01:39:00,720 Speaker 10: when we talk about guys who left teams. Yeah, six 2031 01:39:00,760 --> 01:39:04,080 Speaker 10: point two five million. So it's just the problem with 2032 01:39:04,120 --> 01:39:07,120 Speaker 10: that position. There's nothing you can do about it. All that, 2033 01:39:07,240 --> 01:39:08,960 Speaker 10: you know, we know the running backs have their meeting. 2034 01:39:09,040 --> 01:39:10,680 Speaker 10: You know they had their Zoom meeting, it didn't you know, 2035 01:39:10,720 --> 01:39:13,200 Speaker 10: they just sort of air their grievances. But there's nothing 2036 01:39:13,200 --> 01:39:15,040 Speaker 10: you can do. And one thing I do want to say. 2037 01:39:15,920 --> 01:39:17,720 Speaker 10: My job's to call it down the middle. But I 2038 01:39:17,760 --> 01:39:20,400 Speaker 10: would urge Jim Mersy if they cannot make if they 2039 01:39:20,400 --> 01:39:23,479 Speaker 10: don't want up making a deal, stop running your mouth 2040 01:39:23,520 --> 01:39:27,280 Speaker 10: publicly and disparaging your running back. Not smart because I 2041 01:39:27,280 --> 01:39:29,200 Speaker 10: don't know Jon and Taylor personally, but I know people 2042 01:39:29,200 --> 01:39:29,840 Speaker 10: are close to him. 2043 01:39:29,840 --> 01:39:31,559 Speaker 2: He's just a hell really good dude. 2044 01:39:32,360 --> 01:39:34,320 Speaker 10: But when you tell him you're not going to extend 2045 01:39:34,360 --> 01:39:38,120 Speaker 10: his contract, don't say anything publicly. There's no reason why 2046 01:39:38,160 --> 01:39:40,160 Speaker 10: would you make the situation worse. And Jim Mersey cannot 2047 01:39:40,200 --> 01:39:41,240 Speaker 10: help himself unfortunately. 2048 01:39:41,320 --> 01:39:43,120 Speaker 3: Yeah no, yeah, yeah, He's had a history of that. 2049 01:39:43,200 --> 01:39:45,080 Speaker 3: But moving on from them as well. You know, I 2050 01:39:45,160 --> 01:39:47,160 Speaker 3: got to talk about my jets with you, so sure. 2051 01:39:47,200 --> 01:39:49,000 Speaker 3: I know it's the last preseason game today and I 2052 01:39:49,040 --> 01:39:51,120 Speaker 3: know Aaron Rodgers is going to see a little action today. 2053 01:39:51,360 --> 01:39:53,960 Speaker 3: Do you know what that plan looks like and how 2054 01:39:54,040 --> 01:39:54,960 Speaker 3: much will he play today? 2055 01:39:55,280 --> 01:39:58,559 Speaker 2: Yeah? I was. 2056 01:39:58,960 --> 01:40:00,559 Speaker 10: I believe it's going to be a on a quarter 2057 01:40:01,080 --> 01:40:02,960 Speaker 10: and the only reason why they want into play is 2058 01:40:02,960 --> 01:40:05,280 Speaker 10: because he's not been in the game with his group. 2059 01:40:05,320 --> 01:40:08,240 Speaker 10: He's only practiced. And this is a new group and 2060 01:40:08,280 --> 01:40:10,200 Speaker 10: they're playing by the way in their home stadium because 2061 01:40:10,240 --> 01:40:12,920 Speaker 10: it's the snoopy ballts the Giants versus the Jets, and 2062 01:40:12,960 --> 01:40:14,000 Speaker 10: you know he's already out there. 2063 01:40:14,640 --> 01:40:16,840 Speaker 2: Uh. And by the cool thing is they're there. 2064 01:40:16,880 --> 01:40:20,600 Speaker 10: Their whole starting unit is out there, except except I 2065 01:40:20,600 --> 01:40:22,639 Speaker 10: don't think Dwayne Brown's playing their left tackle. 2066 01:40:23,240 --> 01:40:25,800 Speaker 2: He just came back off of pup. But you know that. 2067 01:40:25,880 --> 01:40:28,040 Speaker 10: I have to tell you, guys, the big issue with 2068 01:40:28,080 --> 01:40:31,479 Speaker 10: the football team is the state of their tackles. Dwayne 2069 01:40:31,479 --> 01:40:34,360 Speaker 10: Brown is it just got activated and they don't know 2070 01:40:34,400 --> 01:40:36,800 Speaker 10: who the right tackle is. Makai Beckton's taking snaps at 2071 01:40:36,800 --> 01:40:40,200 Speaker 10: the right tackle the only thing they to carry. I'm 2072 01:40:40,200 --> 01:40:41,960 Speaker 10: probably gonna pick them to win the division. I really 2073 01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:45,160 Speaker 10: want to, but I'm very worried about their tackle situation. 2074 01:40:45,240 --> 01:40:47,080 Speaker 10: I know one person with the Jets said, hey, Aaron, 2075 01:40:47,160 --> 01:40:50,240 Speaker 10: Aaron can help us. He's got the quick release. I said, yeah, 2076 01:40:50,280 --> 01:40:54,439 Speaker 10: but they're going pressure them. Teams know how to pressure 2077 01:40:54,479 --> 01:40:56,920 Speaker 10: because you know, they'll just blitz off of one side 2078 01:40:57,200 --> 01:41:00,320 Speaker 10: or or double one side. It's just that it's the 2079 01:41:00,320 --> 01:41:02,120 Speaker 10: only thing to rail in the Jet season is the 2080 01:41:02,240 --> 01:41:03,080 Speaker 10: stay of their tackles. 2081 01:41:03,320 --> 01:41:05,920 Speaker 2: Is it possible c J. Strau will not be Week 2082 01:41:05,960 --> 01:41:07,360 Speaker 2: one starter for the Texans. 2083 01:41:07,400 --> 01:41:09,120 Speaker 10: I don't know why they haven't named him, not that 2084 01:41:09,160 --> 01:41:12,759 Speaker 10: you have to. It would stun me. It just because 2085 01:41:12,800 --> 01:41:15,040 Speaker 10: he's remember he started these games, But like, why else 2086 01:41:15,080 --> 01:41:18,960 Speaker 10: would you do that? Yeah, I know teams don't think 2087 01:41:19,000 --> 01:41:21,519 Speaker 10: it's really necessary to name a starter, but they're going 2088 01:41:21,560 --> 01:41:21,960 Speaker 10: to have to. 2089 01:41:22,720 --> 01:41:23,000 Speaker 2: Uh. 2090 01:41:23,040 --> 01:41:26,719 Speaker 10: And you look at that situation with with Damico Ryans. 2091 01:41:26,840 --> 01:41:30,559 Speaker 10: I'm a little surprised at that one. Again, it's it's 2092 01:41:30,640 --> 01:41:33,400 Speaker 10: just when you when you're starting a new here with 2093 01:41:33,720 --> 01:41:35,040 Speaker 10: a new regime, and why would you. 2094 01:41:35,000 --> 01:41:36,360 Speaker 2: Not do that? But they have time? 2095 01:41:37,680 --> 01:41:39,240 Speaker 3: Are you ready for your bye week? 2096 01:41:39,720 --> 01:41:42,160 Speaker 2: I don't understand a bye week before the season begins. 2097 01:41:42,240 --> 01:41:44,000 Speaker 2: It's ridiculous. Well let me ask you this. 2098 01:41:44,640 --> 01:41:47,000 Speaker 10: Okay, So they have this, they've not rep they've not 2099 01:41:47,040 --> 01:41:49,519 Speaker 10: replaced this week, and teams like it because they could 2100 01:41:49,520 --> 01:41:52,360 Speaker 10: actually have practice without the media able to watch. You 2101 01:41:52,439 --> 01:41:54,559 Speaker 10: only get the first fifteen minutes because you can't watch 2102 01:41:54,600 --> 01:41:56,559 Speaker 10: the whole practice. Now, teams kind of shut you down. 2103 01:41:57,120 --> 01:41:59,559 Speaker 10: I don't know what there could possibly be to alleviate 2104 01:41:59,560 --> 01:42:02,040 Speaker 10: this issue. Like I said, college football when we started 2105 01:42:02,040 --> 01:42:04,920 Speaker 10: this interview here discussion. I think college football, which I'm 2106 01:42:04,920 --> 01:42:07,439 Speaker 10: not a huge fan of. I'll watch it, but you 2107 01:42:07,439 --> 01:42:11,840 Speaker 10: know I'm a big NFL guy. Now, baseball Pennant races, no. 2108 01:42:11,720 --> 01:42:13,720 Speaker 2: Doubt I'll enjoy that. But I don't know. There's not 2109 01:42:13,800 --> 01:42:16,320 Speaker 2: much you can do here. No, I mean they give 2110 01:42:16,439 --> 01:42:19,560 Speaker 2: week one, this is week zero, week one of the 2111 01:42:19,600 --> 01:42:23,600 Speaker 2: college football season to them. But again it's ridiculous. I 2112 01:42:23,640 --> 01:42:26,880 Speaker 2: mean if we had to wait till September seventh, Adam. 2113 01:42:26,920 --> 01:42:28,679 Speaker 2: In the meantime, we'll talk to you next week though. 2114 01:42:28,800 --> 01:42:31,640 Speaker 2: You'll have plenty for us.

This 2138 01:43:28,720 --> 01:43:31,160 Speaker 4: is his second drive and he leads the Jets to 2139 01:43:31,160 --> 01:43:33,840 Speaker 4: what is now in this final preseason game, seven to 2140 01:43:33,880 --> 01:43:37,000 Speaker 4: nothing against the Giants, eight twenty three left in the 2141 01:43:37,040 --> 01:43:39,760 Speaker 4: first quarter of the other game in Washington, where the 2142 01:43:39,760 --> 01:43:42,599 Speaker 4: Commanders are trailing the Bengals seven to nothing, Jacoby Brissett 2143 01:43:42,920 --> 01:43:45,720 Speaker 4: getting the starting nod at QB in this game four 2144 01:43:45,760 --> 01:43:49,040 Speaker 4: the Commander's forty three yards passing Jake Browning at the 2145 01:43:49,120 --> 01:43:51,760 Speaker 4: helm as QB won for since he has a touchdown 2146 01:43:51,840 --> 01:43:55,519 Speaker 4: throat to his name.

They gave Patrick Mahomes that long 2244 01:48:26,720 --> 01:48:33,080 Speaker 2: term deal and he's already grossly underpaid. Right Another guy 2245 01:48:33,120 --> 01:48:37,160 Speaker 2: that's grossly underpaid is Travis Kelcey. Now both those guys 2246 01:48:37,160 --> 01:48:40,839 Speaker 2: are making up for it by making millions off the field. Kelsey, 2247 01:48:40,840 --> 01:48:43,000 Speaker 2: I believe and his brother have the number one podcast 2248 01:48:43,080 --> 01:48:46,120 Speaker 2: out there.

They had hot dogs 2258 01:49:10,360 --> 01:49:13,960 Speaker 2: and they ran out of buns. They had chips in 2259 01:49:14,000 --> 01:49:18,840 Speaker 2: a bag that just said chips. Wasn't even a brand nothing, 2260 01:49:18,880 --> 01:49:23,920 Speaker 2: it said chips. And they were serving sodas in Dixie cups. 2261 01:49:24,760 --> 01:49:30,840 Speaker 2: In other words, cheap, sheep like it was stunningly cheap. 2262 01:49:31,760 --> 01:49:33,960 Speaker 2: How long can they get away with this?

Kansas City, your New England's all those teams. 2270 01:49:54,520 --> 01:49:58,960 Speaker 3: They're very very reserved and very well kept when it 2271 01:49:59,000 --> 01:50:00,880 Speaker 3: comes to the money such a and they keep it 2272 01:50:00,920 --> 01:50:03,360 Speaker 3: close to the best, and they issue it out to 2273 01:50:03,479 --> 01:50:06,400 Speaker 3: multiple places and multiple positions. They don't believe in overpaying 2274 01:50:06,439 --> 01:50:09,920 Speaker 3: for their their even their top talent. They don't.

As long I mean, Chris 2284 01:50:35,439 --> 01:50:36,759 Speaker 2: Jones is doing it right now. 2285 01:50:36,560 --> 01:50:39,599 Speaker 3: As long as their main guy is happy number fifteen, 2286 01:50:39,960 --> 01:50:42,719 Speaker 3: it's going to keep maintaining it. Yeah, well, because guys 2287 01:50:42,720 --> 01:50:44,960 Speaker 3: want to play with him, and so you know, at 2288 01:50:44,960 --> 01:50:46,439 Speaker 3: the end of the day, yes, we want our money. 2289 01:50:46,439 --> 01:50:49,320 Speaker 3: We want to get paid, and that will eventually happen, 2290 01:50:49,600 --> 01:50:52,479 Speaker 3: either if it's there or somewhere else. But in the meantime, 2291 01:50:52,520 --> 01:50:53,880 Speaker 3: you got a chance to win. They're going to win 2292 01:50:53,920 --> 01:50:55,040 Speaker 3: and maximize that right now. 2293 01:50:55,800 --> 01:50:59,320 Speaker 2: I would imagine you watched last year's AFC Championship game 2294 01:50:59,360 --> 01:51:02,240 Speaker 2: when the Chiefs I only beat the Bengals. Yes, Chris 2295 01:51:02,360 --> 01:51:05,280 Speaker 2: Jones was unblockable in that game. Yes, if Chris Jones 2296 01:51:05,320 --> 01:51:07,040 Speaker 2: is not in that game, the Bengals were back to 2297 01:51:07,080 --> 01:51:07,800 Speaker 2: another Super Bowl. 2298 01:51:08,800 --> 01:51:10,920 Speaker 3: Oh, if they don't pay Chris, if they don't play 2299 01:51:11,000 --> 01:51:13,559 Speaker 3: chis drones. Chris Jones, it's a mistake. 2300 01:51:13,680 --> 01:51:17,240 Speaker 2: By the way, he's he's forfeiting one point one million 2301 01:51:17,280 --> 01:51:21,160 Speaker 2: per game, and he said I can afford it, So 2302 01:51:21,400 --> 01:51:23,840 Speaker 2: he sounds pretty serious that he said, I'll see you 2303 01:51:23,880 --> 01:51:24,439 Speaker 2: in week eight. 2304 01:51:24,720 --> 01:51:27,760 Speaker 3: That's a great position to be in to forfeit that 2305 01:51:27,880 --> 01:51:32,120 Speaker 3: much money. But I'm just you know again, I mean money, money. 2306 01:51:31,960 --> 01:51:34,479 Speaker 2: Talks, money talks, and it only takes a few guys 2307 01:51:34,479 --> 01:51:37,360 Speaker 2: in a locker room to suddenly turn everybody against the 2308 01:51:37,439 --> 01:51:41,280 Speaker 2: organization saying this is absurd. We're winning championships, or in contention, 2309 01:51:41,520 --> 01:51:44,200 Speaker 2: we're we're going deep in the playoffs every single year. 2310 01:51:45,320 --> 01:51:47,360 Speaker 2: We want to get paid. 2311 01:51:47,360 --> 01:51:50,080 Speaker 3: Right, No, and they should get paid. It's not me 2312 01:51:50,120 --> 01:51:51,920 Speaker 3: saying they shouldn't get paid or not. But you can't 2313 01:51:51,920 --> 01:51:53,360 Speaker 3: pay them all. You can't pay them all. And you 2314 01:51:53,360 --> 01:51:57,160 Speaker 3: started paying those guys these these contracts are even served. 2315 01:51:57,160 --> 01:51:59,800 Speaker 3: Plus then you can't keep the other guys that you 2316 01:51:59,800 --> 01:52:01,479 Speaker 3: need in your core to be a winning team. So 2317 01:52:01,800 --> 01:52:04,200 Speaker 3: that's just the situation. Chris. I'm sure he's gonna get 2318 01:52:04,560 --> 01:52:06,520 Speaker 3: he's gonna get paid. They're going to have to eventually 2319 01:52:06,600 --> 01:52:09,240 Speaker 3: bend to that. In some to some regard, he's still 2320 01:52:09,240 --> 01:52:11,720 Speaker 3: good a player. I mean, you go down the line 2321 01:52:11,760 --> 01:52:14,479 Speaker 3: the pecking order of that team, it's Patrick Mahomes and 2322 01:52:14,520 --> 01:52:17,639 Speaker 3: then obviously you know Kelsey's right there, and then it's Chris. 2323 01:52:17,720 --> 01:52:18,880 Speaker 3: So you gotta take care of them. 2324 01:52:19,080 --> 01:52:20,960 Speaker 2: I mean, Quinn Williams. There's a lot of great obviously. 2325 01:52:21,040 --> 01:52:23,400 Speaker 2: Aaron Donald at the top of the mountain. I Christian's 2326 01:52:23,439 --> 01:52:26,759 Speaker 2: right behind Aaron Donald as far as interior defensive lineman. 2327 01:52:26,920 --> 01:52:28,559 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I agree. 2328 01:52:28,880 --> 01:52:29,160 Speaker 4: Cool. 2329 01:52:29,720 --> 01:52:32,240 Speaker 2: So we'll see how that affects the Chiefs. And indeed 2330 01:52:32,520 --> 01:52:34,439 Speaker 2: he doesn't show up until week eight. All right, coming 2331 01:52:34,479 --> 01:52:36,080 Speaker 2: down on the other side, we're gonna put a wrap 2332 01:52:36,120 --> 01:52:40,479 Speaker 2: on week zero of the college football season.

I want to 2381 01:54:53,040 --> 01:54:55,600 Speaker 2: ask him for one quick question, Krect, what is the 2382 01:54:55,720 --> 01:54:57,760 Speaker 2: Padres game plan for twenty twenty four? 2383 01:54:58,480 --> 01:54:59,320 Speaker 3: What would you do? 2384 01:54:59,480 --> 01:55:01,880 Speaker 2: Since I still don't know how a j Preller has 2385 01:55:01,920 --> 01:55:04,000 Speaker 2: a job, but I guess he's, you know, in for life. 2386 01:55:04,040 --> 01:55:06,560 Speaker 2: But if you're going to sit down and consult him 2387 01:55:06,600 --> 01:55:10,000 Speaker 2: to make up for this year's mess, how would you 2388 01:55:10,040 --> 01:55:10,560 Speaker 2: go about it? 2389 01:55:11,040 --> 01:55:13,880 Speaker 8: I would try to move one of the big contracts. 2390 01:55:13,960 --> 01:55:17,520 Speaker 8: I mean, I don't know, it's it's it's just a 2391 01:55:17,560 --> 01:55:20,240 Speaker 8: really sticky situation. I mean, in a dream world, I 2392 01:55:20,280 --> 01:55:23,080 Speaker 8: would love to move Bogart's contract because I really didn't 2393 01:55:23,160 --> 01:55:27,720 Speaker 8: understand that signing when they made it. And then I 2394 01:55:27,720 --> 01:55:29,720 Speaker 8: would take, you know, use some of that money to 2395 01:55:29,720 --> 01:55:32,680 Speaker 8: at least try to retain Kim for a long term deal, 2396 01:55:32,680 --> 01:55:34,280 Speaker 8: because he'll be gone at the end of twenty twenty 2397 01:55:34,280 --> 01:55:37,440 Speaker 8: four if they can't resign him. Obviously, Soto is on 2398 01:55:37,520 --> 01:55:40,720 Speaker 8: the horizon as well. Blake Snell is having a cy 2399 01:55:40,840 --> 01:55:41,880 Speaker 8: young season and. 2400 01:55:42,080 --> 01:55:42,920 Speaker 3: He's a free agent. 2401 01:55:43,000 --> 01:55:43,840 Speaker 2: He's a free agent. 2402 01:55:44,200 --> 01:55:46,839 Speaker 8: So yeah, it doesn't really matter, man, because college football 2403 01:55:46,840 --> 01:55:47,720 Speaker 8: starts in ten minutes. 2404 01:55:48,160 --> 01:55:48,680 Speaker 3: Exactly. 2405 01:55:49,000 --> 01:55:53,840 Speaker 2: I'm glad, baby, I am glad you said that. Do 2406 01:55:53,920 --> 01:55:55,840 Speaker 2: I look any difference since the last time we spoke? 2407 01:55:55,920 --> 01:55:58,600 Speaker 3: Kind of snazzy. I think you made a quick change 2408 01:55:58,600 --> 01:55:59,840 Speaker 3: in the bathroom. I think came back. 2409 01:56:00,160 --> 01:56:02,800 Speaker 2: Run from here directly to my TV station to do 2410 01:56:02,840 --> 01:56:06,440 Speaker 2: a Raiders pregame show. I'm going to be talking about 2411 01:56:06,760 --> 01:56:11,360 Speaker 2: Divine Diablo. Yes, that is one of the best names 2412 01:56:11,360 --> 01:56:13,480 Speaker 2: in all of foot and by the way, he's a 2413 01:56:13,520 --> 01:56:16,480 Speaker 2: little bit of a bit of a secret, but I 2414 01:56:16,760 --> 01:56:19,640 Speaker 2: am going to make the point if he doesn't progress 2415 01:56:19,680 --> 01:56:21,920 Speaker 2: to where they think he is. This is the linebacker 2416 01:56:21,960 --> 01:56:25,040 Speaker 2: for the Raiders. He's like an undersized linebacker, great speed, 2417 01:56:25,120 --> 01:56:27,880 Speaker 2: covers a lot of a field. That whole defense is 2418 01:56:27,920 --> 01:56:31,080 Speaker 2: dependent on him developing as a dynamic player. 2419 01:56:31,120 --> 01:56:32,560 Speaker 3: That's been a dynamic player, but he has to be 2420 01:56:32,600 --> 01:56:35,800 Speaker 3: the leader to the middle. Linebacker is such an important 2421 01:56:35,800 --> 01:56:39,080 Speaker 3: position in football, especially now with the way they spread 2422 01:56:39,120 --> 01:56:42,240 Speaker 3: the field and being able to communicate to all those 2423 01:56:42,280 --> 01:56:45,600 Speaker 3: guys their assignments in the middle, not only making plays 2424 01:56:45,600 --> 01:56:47,560 Speaker 3: for himself but putting other guys in position as well. 2425 01:56:47,600 --> 01:56:49,520 Speaker 3: And so it's gonna be big to see. And I 2426 01:56:49,560 --> 01:56:51,520 Speaker 3: love that lavender colored shirt too. By the way, yes, 2427 01:56:51,640 --> 01:56:53,760 Speaker 3: I go purple tie. I actually have sort of a 2428 01:56:53,800 --> 01:56:56,760 Speaker 3: gray suit. It works out well. I did not coordinate these. 2429 01:56:56,800 --> 01:56:59,080 Speaker 3: I have zero.

It's coming gone. But I'll say you look 2435 01:57:12,200 --> 01:57:14,360 Speaker 3: really good though.
