27
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 4: And then I'm like I was looking, and I was

28
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 4: like and so I started watching it. And then my

29
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,559

31
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 4: out there playing ball.

32
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 3: They were playing ball.

33
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 2: I was. I was thoroughly entertained. Women are taking over

34
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 2: sporting world this week.

35
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 3: Like I just didn't. I didn't know anything about it.

36
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 5: I've never heard of it. Like you're breaking news to

37
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 5: me right now.

38
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 3: Yeah.

39
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 4: Man, the Boston Renegades won there, I guess, fifth straight championship.

40
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 4: They finished the season at nine to oho, and I

41
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 4: just was. I was enthralled. I didn't know. I didn't

42
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 4: know shout out to the Where again did you find this?

43
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 4: This was on uh, one of the sports channels.

44
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 2: It was just there. I mean, I was one of

45
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 2: the sports channels. We don't work doing something we don't

46
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 2: work for. Well yeah, yeah, yeah, you're doing something that

47
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 2: very few people younger than us do now, which is

48
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,239
Speaker 2: you were scrolling. I was scrolling through the TV. I said, yeah, yeah,

49
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 2: you were scrolling people. You don't people don't scroll anymore. Man,

50
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 2: They're just like on the streaming service, and they they

51
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 2: got a destination. People watch TV the way men shop like.

52
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm here to body shirt now I'm going

53
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 2: home like this whole peruse around. Let's see what we see.

54
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 2: That's that's you know, people don't do that anymore.

55
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 4: No, they don't. But this was this was pretty good, man.

56
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 4: It's pretty good football, though.

57
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: Running backs in this league.

58
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 4: Running backs everything quarterback, it's football.

59
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 3: It's NFL rules football or the running backs.

60
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,399
Speaker 2: In that league. As upset as the running backs are

61
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 2: in the NFL.

62
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 4: The running backs killing in this boy, they was whoa many?

63
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 4: But are they getting paid? No, I'm sure I don't.

64
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 4: Let me find out what the salary is.

65
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 2: It's right, please do well. I mean, that's been that's

66
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 2: obviously been front and center all week long. And I've

67
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 2: been waiting to talk to my man, the offensive lineman

68
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 2: whose job it is to make life this year for

69
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 2: NFL running backs for his entire career. You're where you

70
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 2: are because of making life easier for running backs. And

71
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 2: it feels like we are at like a crossroads. The

72
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 2: running backs certainly feel like they're at a crossroads right now.

73
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 2: So what do you think of all this?

74
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,239
Speaker 3: I think it's a shame. I think it's.

75
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 4: It's crazy how the position has been devalued. I think

76
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 4: the drafting structure, if I was a running back, I'd

77
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 4: never want to be drafted in the first round because

78
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 4: what we're seeing now is they're saying it's over for

79
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 4: you at twenty seven. So you basically just have that

80
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 4: five year contract, they pick up your fifth season option.

81
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 4: They don't want to pay you anymore. So if you're

82
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 4: twenty two coming out of college and you play for

83
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 4: five years and you're up for it up to be

84
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:04,159
Speaker 4: a free agent, they'll franchise you at the I think

85
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 4: it might be the lowest franchise in football going down.

86
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 4: And so to me it seems like, I mean, collectively,

87
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 4: they're gonna have to get together and make a decision

88
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 4: because the way it's set up now when you look

89
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 4: at the people who are winning Super Bowls right when

90
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 4: we look at Patrick Mahomes, the Chiefs with Patrick Mahomes

91
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 4: have never really had a dynamic running game.

92
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 3: They have never needed it.

93
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 4: So this notion of you don't need the running game

94
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 4: or running back or a premier running back to win

95
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 4: a Super Bowl is what the sentiment is. But it's

96
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 4: not necessarily true. Like you look at Tom Brady. Tom

97
00:05:55,400 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 4: Brady didn't really need running game to win a Super Bowl.

98
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 4: But we're looking at the outliers, right, We're looking at

99
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 4: you don't have Tom Brady or Patrick Mahomes any other

100
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 4: team right. Nobody has Tom Brady now, but no one

101
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 4: has Patrick Mahomes. So if you feel like, because they

102
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 4: did it, Patrick can win a Super Bowl and the

103
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 4: Chiefs can win a Super Bowl without paying a running

104
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 4: back or having you know, the best running back or

105
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 4: the league leading rusher in the league, So we.

106
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 3: Don't have to that's the problem.

107
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 4: That's the problem, because you're not going to get an

108
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 4: opportunity to get there if you don't really have a

109
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 4: running back in the backfield.

110
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 2: Well, except for what if I said it this way,

111
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,359
Speaker 2: we spend a whole lot of money on a running back,

112
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 2: we don't necessarily have the opportunity to spend the money

113
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 2: on that player you just described, which is actually what

114
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 2: we need. Because if I go around the league right now,

115
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 2: to all of the qbs and all of the teams

116
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 2: that people feel like are probably gonna win this whole thing,

117
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 2: most of them are going about it that way. Okay, well,

118
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 2: not just Mahomes, also Josh Allen, it's also the Philadelphia Eagles.

119
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 2: And before you say San Francisco forty nine ers, they're

120
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 2: doing it because of a unicorn.

121
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna say that. What I

122
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,119
Speaker 4: was gonna say with why was Philly so good?

123
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 3: Was it.

124
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 4: Because Jalen Hurts was a dynamic passer and all No,

125
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 4: they had the top rushing offense in the league.

126
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 2: Run game, right, yes, the run game, but how many

127
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 2: different people were able to succeed in that run game.

128
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 3: Well that's the whole point.

129
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 4: But if you get a Sanders and he got hurt

130
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 4: towards the end there, but he was one of the

131
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 4: league leading rushers, there's a reason we're looking at the

132
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 4: end product saying, well, you don't need it to get

133
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 4: to hear, but you're not looking at the work that

134
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 4: happened during this when he was carrying the ball and

135
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 4: he was verging five yards to carry right like, so

136
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 4: we don't look at that part. We're just looking at

137
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 4: the end like you don't really need it. There's no

138
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 4: success there if they don't have a dynamic running game

139
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 4: with dynamic running backs for Philadelphia.

140
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 2: Also, okay, but if they felt that way from about

141
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 2: Miles Sanders, why isn't he still on.

142
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 4: The team because running backs are now replaceable? That's the whole.

143
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 2: Motion now, and you just said it. You just said

144
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:36,239
Speaker 2: it like from an emotional standpoint. From a conceptual standpoint,

145
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 2: I can't disagree with anything that you're saying. I'm not

146
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 2: going to call it fair. I don't necessarily believe that

147
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 2: running backs should be devalued the concept in my brain.

148
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 2: But how do I argue with an NFL team that

149
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 2: says we can get the exact same production turn and

150
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 2: burn by putting somebody else in there for a lot

151
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 2: less money. So it essentially means we're asking for the

152
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 2: NFL to have a heart, and he from We've done this,

153
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 2: We've done this conversation about fifteen thousand different ways.

154
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 5: The NFL is not going to have a heart.

155
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 4: Let me ask you one question, and I just want

156
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 4: to find away an honest answer. So the Giants opted

157
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 4: to pay Daniel Jones. Yes, so without Saquon Barkley, you

158
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 4: think Daniel Jones can get them to the playoffs into

159
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 4: a super Bowl.

160
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 2: I don't know if Daniel Jones can get it with

161
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:40,319
Speaker 2: Sakwon Barkley. But I do think that James Robinson is

162
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 2: an interesting player. I'll say it that way. He's an

163
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 2: interesting player interesting. Hold On, don't laugh. I did not

164
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 2: say he was sa Kwon bark.

165
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 4: I mean you alluded to it, but you know even

166
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 4: to mention it in the same who I think.

167
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 2: No, it's not disrespectful because you're essentially what you're asking

168
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 2: me is, do I think an NFL team can win

169
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 2: with a James Robinson type as their lead back?

170
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 4: Yep, and and not at Patrick Mahomes at quarterback. We're

171
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 4: talking about Daniel Jones that you gave the money to,

172
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 4: and you didn't want to give the money to Saquon Barkley.

173
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 4: This is a direct example. This is a direct example.

174
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 4: Where were they going with where they're going without?

175
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 2: Right?

176
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,559
Speaker 4: If decides to sit out, where what what draft pick

177
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 4: do they get next year?

178
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 2: You're going your what draft pick do they get? The

179
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,839
Speaker 2: same place? You ended up in the same place either

180
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 2: way you or without them, which is not good enough?

181
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 5: So why pay it?

182
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 4: No, you're going to the layoffs, You're you're gonna have

183
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 4: a chance, You'll have a chance to win that division

184
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 4: or compete in that division with Barkley. You will not

185
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:56,719
Speaker 4: without circumstances. Circumstances, you don't think the Giants have an

186
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 4: opportunity to compete for that division with sakuon Barkley.

187
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're the third best team. I think that the

188
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 2: third best team out of four teams. That's what I

189
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 2: think even with him.

190
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 3: Did you just.

191
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 2: Yes? I did? Yeah, I did. All right, this is

00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 2: and e from Salam Watherdin Salam every single Sunday night,

218
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 2: five to eight Pacific here across all of these Foxsports

219
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 2: Radio networks. Thank you so much for being with us.

220
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 2: Look e from You're not just a businessman, You're a

221
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 2: business man. I know that. I know that. I know that,

222
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 2: and therefore I know what you know, which is that

223
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,200
Speaker 2: the market, in a matter of speaking, is always fair.

224
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 2: Now I'm not gonna say always always always, because sure

225
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 2: there is discrimination out there against all kinds of different groups.

226
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 2: But this isn't that they're not discriminating against a running

227
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 2: back so that they can pay a quarterback or a

228
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 2: wide receiver or even a left tackle. That's not what's

229
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 2: going on here. Worth on the market is determined by

230
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 2: that market and by the replaceability of whatever you provide,

231
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 2: and so like, I know, it's not fair, of course

232
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 2: it's not fair. And yes, sa Quon is special, the

233
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 2: same way Austin Eckler is special and Josh Jacobs is special.

234
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 5: They're all special. However, by and.

235
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 2: Large, across the league, we've also watched players who we

236
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 2: think are special and then we come to find out

237
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 2: that they're actually just a product of the system. And

238
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 2: with your history with names like Shanahan, you know this.

239
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:16,559
Speaker 2: You know this right, like orlandis Gary, Mike Anderson. Are

240
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 2: they good football players? Sure, but we got used to

241
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 2: the idea that whoever was back there was going to

242
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 2: run for twelve hundred yards because right, because there was

243
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 2: a system. So if there's a system and you can

244
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 2: plug and play, and if the nature of the position

245
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 2: itself causes such a repeated car wreck that by the

246
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 2: time you're thirty you are a lesser version of yourself,

247
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 2: I feel bad for you. But what is it that

248
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 2: the NFL is to do. They're not wrong, They're not

249
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 2: supposed to pay you at age twenty nine, just because

250
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 2: they want to thank you.

251
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 5: So what's the fix.

252
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 4: What I'm saying is plug and play systems are great.

253
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 4: Every team doesn't have that. The New York Giants don't

254
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 4: have a plug and play system.

255
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 2: That's Joe.

256
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 4: The Oakland Raiders don't have a plug and play system.

257
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 4: The Los Angeles Chargers don't have a plug and play system?

258
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:17,840
Speaker 3: Would they?

259
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 4: All three of those? They have dynamic running backs. So

260
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 4: if you are under the assumption that we can just

261
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 4: get anybody in here and have the success that our

262
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 4: young quarterbacks have been having without a dynamic running back, oh,

263
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 4: I can't wait to see this. That's all I'm saying.

264
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 4: If you're a team, if you're a team and you know,

265
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 4: like you knew in Denver the system, if you were,

266
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 4: if you can hold the ball and run it, you

267
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 4: can gain a thousand yards. Now it took TD to

268
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 4: be special and get two thousand yards. That's a dynamic

269
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 4: running back. To Clinton portis to be special and rush

270
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 4: back to back fifteen hundred yards seasons. You're welcome very much.

271
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 2: Clinton.

272
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 4: So you know, like even in Atlanta when I was

273
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 4: with Atlanta, we had the dirty Birds and Jamal Anderson

274
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 4: was back there that wasn't a system that was Jamal

275
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 4: Anderson being better than everybody else, right because when.

276
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 2: He got hurt, Maul Anderson, when he got hurt.

277
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 4: But when he got hurt, we couldn't run the ball

278
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 4: for twenty yards a game.

279
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 2: Right, which you could look at it and go, well,

280
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 2: that makes Jamal valuable, and the Falcons will look at

281
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 2: it and go no, because why would we pay someone

282
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 2: who can't stay healthy? Not at the time, It's not it. Look,

283
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 2: there's nothing fair about it. But even if I said, okay,

284
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 2: I'll acknowledge a drop off in production. If somebody is

285
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 2: going to get you four point five yards per carry

286
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 2: for or thirteen million dollars a year, but somebody else

287
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 2: canna get you four point three for three million dollars

288
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 2: a year, what do you think they're gonna pick? Right? Like,

289
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 2: even if I acknowledge how special some of these running

290
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 2: backs are, I mean, hell Eckler is a wonderful example here.

291
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:23,399
Speaker 2: Eckler is actually the closest thing to Christian McCaffrey that

292
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 2: this league has, and is the reason why I can

293
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:30,679
Speaker 2: justify paying Christian McCaffrey because he actually plays two positions,

294
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 2: if not more. And so that's the kind of thing

295
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 2: I'm talking about. But even with Eckler being the the

296
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 2: you know, the poor man's McCaffrey, I know damn well

297
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 2: that that organization's not paying him. Of course they're not.

298
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 2: They don't do that and they never will. So Eckler,

299
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 2: if he wants to hold out, good luck. Every draft

300
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:55,120
Speaker 2: pick almost always holds out there because that's the way

301
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 2: they're going to play it. So it can be not fair.

302
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 2: But we've watched these standoffs before. Le'Veon Bell is the

303
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:07,199
Speaker 2: most famous one. He's a celebrity boxer. Now, so what

304
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 2: are you gonna do? You're right, not fair? What's the answer,

305
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 2: what's the what's the running back supposed to do? If

306
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:18,120
Speaker 2: Barkley wants to sit the whole year out, newsflash, it's

307
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 2: gonna go well for him.

308
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not gonna go well for the Giants either.

309
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 2: That's I agree, But they have they're gonna stand off

310
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 2: and win in the long run. Like we could make

311
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 2: the cases, it has not gone well for the Steelers either.

312
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 2: It's not going well for the Steelers either, but I

313
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,160
Speaker 2: haven't been able it's gonna go better for them than

314
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 2: it is for Labia.

315
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, the league doesn't need any particular player at any

316
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:47,159
Speaker 4: particular time. The league will be just fine without Patrick Mahomes.

317
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 4: The league will be fine without Justin Herbert, right, They'll

318
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:55,199
Speaker 4: be you know, we won't be as excited sometimes, but

319
00:18:55,280 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 4: it'll the league will survive. All I'm saying is from

320
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:05,919
Speaker 4: a team standpoint, a winning standpoint, a giving yourself a

321
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 4: chance to win standpoint.

322
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,399
Speaker 3: I'm like, bro, you can do that if you want to.

323
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,400
Speaker 4: You don't offer the man the money you I mean,

324
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 4: they had an option to pay him before they paid

325
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,879
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones. That's why you could have got the discount.

326
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 4: What was Daniel Jones gonna do? What was he gonna do?

327
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 4: Hold out leave? Who was about to pay Daniel Jones?

328
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 4: That's a real question. Who was about to pay Daniel

329
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 4: Jones after one year of okay football? With Saquon Barkley

330
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 4: there to do most of the heavy lifting, who is

331
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 4: about to pay out but Daniel Jones forty five million

332
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 4: dollars a year?

333
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 2: No one could paying forty five millions of dollars a year,

334
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 2: But somebody probably would have paid him twenty five okay,

335
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 2: which is which is still time and a half for

336
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 2: what Sakuon Barkley is about to get if he shows up.

337
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 4: I get it, man, I just in terms of value.

338
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 4: I know this is a quarterback league and you feel

339
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 4: like you have to stack your value at the quarterback position.

340
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 4: But when you're stacking that particular value on someone who

341
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 4: doesn't hold the same level of value, that scratches. That

342
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 4: makes me scratch my head. Well, oh, I can't wait

343
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 4: to see these first six games without say, go on,

344
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 4: Barkley boy, is there?

345
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 3: What's the kid's name? You said? Looks? Oh? What did interesting?

346
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 2: James Robinson? James Robinson look interesting? He's James Robinson, guy

347
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 2: from Jackson. He's a good running back. Yeah.

348
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 3: A couple of years ago, he was a good running back.

349
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 3: He's a good running back. Yeah, a couple of years ago,

350
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 3: he was a good running back. Then he got hurt.

351
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,680
Speaker 4: Then he got hurt, got hurt, then he got traded.

352
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 4: Then he got traded. Yeah, so but where somebody? But

353
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 4: what another thing?

354
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 2: Twenty twenty he ran for over a thousand yards and

355
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 2: caught forty nine passes out of the backfield.

356
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 3: Oh he helped me win my fantasy football league.

357
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,400
Speaker 2: Damn right, yep, me too, me too.

358
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I know exactly his worth.

359
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 4: But if you had a choice to pick him or

360
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 4: say Quon Barkley to lead your team.

361
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 2: Barkley.

362
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 4: Okay, So what I'm saying is James Robinson is a

363
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:17,639
Speaker 4: good come in, get you some tough year. No defenses

364
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 4: are preparing for James Robinson, and they're nobody in there.

365
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 4: There in lies the value. No defenses are preparing. You're

366
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 4: right for James Robinson.

367
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 2: But what I'm saying is, if I'm the New York Giants,

368
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 2: do I want say quon'sduction for fifteen million a year

369
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 2: or do I want James Robinson's for maybe a third

370
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 2: of that at best.

371
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,199
Speaker 4: Maybe even Well, it depends on what your team goals are.

372
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,199
Speaker 4: That's that's That's an easy question. It depends on what

373
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 4: your If your team goals are to play seventeen games,

374
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 4: then absolutely right, you're at games. Sign him up, let's go.

375
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, he makes two million dollars a year.

376
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 4: Yes, If your team goals are ninety seventeen games, then yes,

377
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,880
Speaker 4: you won. You got you gonna hit your goal. Now,

378
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 4: if your team goals are to compete for division and

379
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 4: make it to the playoffs and try to make it

380
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 4: a run at the super Bowl, then you're you're failing.

404
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 7: The MLB payrolls to start the season, we're notably high

405
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 7: for teams like the Mets. You know, Yankees, Padres, Phillies, Angels.

406
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 7: Are any of them going to be making the playoffs?

407
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 7: Just officially? The Mets are still awful. They're down five

408
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 7: to nothing at Boston in the bottom of the fourth

409

Speaker 7: Hey Otani with his thirty sixth homer that leads the

417
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,879

Speaker 2: that it wasn't close. This is going to be a

461
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 2: bummer thing for Harmon because he's not a big name

462
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 2: and even though he's an American, Like, doesn't it feel

00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 2: something else to tell you about with these running backs.

468
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 2: But earlier this year, it was the Chiefs. Year before that,

469
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 2: the Rams twenty twenty one, the Bucks twenty twenty, the Chiefs.

470
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 2: Before that, it was the Patriots over the Rams. Twenty eighteen,

471
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 2: that was Philadelphia, Nick Foles over the Patriots. Year before that,

472
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 2: the comeback Patriots over the Falcons. Year before that, Peyton

473
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 2: Manning Denver beats Carolina twenty four to ten. Year before that,

474
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 2: New England twenty eight, twenty four, the interception thrown by

475
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 2: Russell Wilson. I'm all the way back at twenty fifteen

476
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 2: from which of those teams had a marque running back? Nobody?

477
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 2: So why are we talking about marquee running backs and

478
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 2: their ability to lead someone to a Super Uti Because

479
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 2: spoiler alert, I can keep going and we're not going

480
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 2: to get to anyone. Does that anymore?

481
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 3: Can I can?

482
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 4: I can you do me a favor? Which with that

483
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 4: list of games, can you tell me the quarterbacks?

484
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,880
Speaker 2: I can tell you all the quarterbacks tell me the quarterbacks. Yeah,

485
00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 2: so it went Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, tom Brady, Nick Foles,

486
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 2: tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, Tom Brady, Matthew Stafford, Patrick Mahomes.

487
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:18,919
Speaker 4: So you had two. You had two outliers there and

488
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford.

489
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 2: That's the and and by the way, let me yes,

490
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 2: his his well, but his name was Peyton Manning. But

491
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 2: let's be honest, right, that was a broken down Peyton Manning.

492
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 3: Well, let's just just just say this. You just named

493
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:37,160
Speaker 3: in that.

494
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 4: Arguably two of the well three of the top three

495
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 4: quarterbacks ever ever live. Of course, so yeah, I would say, no,

496
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 4: they don't. They probably don't need a marquee running back

497
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 4: to win the Super Bowl. I also will say, how

498
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 4: many teams currently have one of the top three quarterbacks

499
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 4: to ever play the game in the history of football?

500
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 2: Well, that would be one.

501
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 4: Okay, there we go. You don't have to have running

502
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 4: backs if you don't want to. But unless you have

503
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 4: one of those three guys and two of them don't play,

504
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 4: no more. Good luck. But that's all I'm saying. But

505
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 4: aren't you making my I'm not. What I'm saying is

506
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 4: like you you Yes, what I opened this by saying

507
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 4: people are confused because they think, Okay, well, look who's

508
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 4: winning the Patrick Mahomes just won the Super Bowl.

509
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 3: They don't have a dynamic running game.

510
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, but they have the greatest quarterback arguably to ever

511
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 4: play if he continues at this clip.

512
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 3: No other team in the league has that.

513
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 4: So if you're trying to base your success off of

514
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 4: what the Kansas City Chiefs are doing with Patrick Mahomes,

515
00:29:58,040 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 4: good luck.

516
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 2: You. You don't have that. No, but my rebuttal would be this,

517
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 2: and I'm not saying to be defeatist. Where is the

518
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 2: evidence that you're going to beat one of those guys

519
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 2: with an elite running back? Because even if we outliers,

520
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 2: because if I kept going a little bit longer, I

521
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 2: would have gotten to Russell Wilson and then Joe Flaps.

522
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 3: And without March, they don't do any of that.

523
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 4: What Okay, there under and for Eli Manning with Jacobs

524
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 4: and uh Ward and right, listen, then you can get

525
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 4: back to Marshall Falk. Then you can get to Terrell

526
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 4: Davis and like right.

527
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,479
Speaker 2: And we have to go back twenty years when it

528
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 2: wasn't such a passing league. Right.

529
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 5: My point is I don't hate running backs?

530
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 3: You hate running backs?

531
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 4: Were you in high school and did the run take

532
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 4: your prom date? That's the energy you have right now?

533
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 2: Mark, Okay, look at hey, hey, hey, listen to me.

534
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 2: You know how tough I am. You think I played football?

535
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 4: No, I'm saying you were just a regular guy and

536
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,959
Speaker 4: the star running back at the school swooped in too.

537
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 5: Did take my prom date? He ain't nobody take my

538
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 5: damn prom date?

539
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 4: No.

540
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 2: I had a skinny tie and a belcrow wallet, and

541
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 2: nobody was leaving me at the door hanging. That's how

542
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 2: it went. Okay. But even if we want to go

543
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 2: to the outliers in recent years, what do we find?

544
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 2: Nick Foles forty one points, hucking the ball all over

545
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 2: the yard? Matt Stafford, who's there? Running back? I wonder

546
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 2: do you want to know who led the Rams when

547
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:53,719
Speaker 2: they beat the Bengals, when they beat the Bengals twenty

548
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 2: three to twenty to win the Super Bowl?

549
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,719
Speaker 5: Can you name their leading rusher?

550
00:31:58,800 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 2: I don't know who that was?

551
00:31:59,560 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 3: Who was?

552
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 2: His name was Cam Akers? Okay, so actually a name

553
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 2: that's still out there. Do you don't know how many

554
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 2: yards he ran for twenty one twenty one? But how many.

555
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 2: I rushed forward doing the season to help them get there.

556
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 2: I can give you that. I can give you that.

557
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 2: I mean, so you have to look at the totality

558
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 2: of it.

559
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 3: Right with their time.

560
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 2: Making this season twenty twenty two, he ran for seven

561
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 2: hundred and eighty six yards. He caught thirteen balls for

562
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 2: one seventeen. I got nothing against cam Ephrom.

563
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 3: They also had the number one defense in the league.

564
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 4: You're making my point, know what I'm doing. I'm telling

565
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 4: you you either have Look, you have to have these

566
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 4: two things. Okay, you have to have a lockdown.

567
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,600
Speaker 2: Quarterback right one of the top five. Ever.

568
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 4: You have to have the number one defense with the

569
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 4: one arguably the greatest defensive interior lineman to ever play.

570
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 2: So why wouldn't I say way of this? So why

571
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 2: wouldn't I save all my money for that even if

572
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 2: I don't have it that year? Where are even if

573
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 2: I don't have it that yet, where you're gonna get

574
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 2: them from? You got to keep.

575
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 5: You your flexibility the draft.

576
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 4: Who knows who's gonna come? Liar, who's going They're outliars? Man,

577
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 4: This is what I'm saying the greatest from boy.

578
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 2: Why am I locking up five years of cap money

579
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 2: on the dude, that's not the key to the lock.

580
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 3: Hey, that man his money.

581
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 2: Why. You have to tell me why, and you can't

582
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 2: say because they're good. You gotta tell me what the

583
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 2: goal is and tell me that they can help you

584
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 2: unlock the key. There's just no evidence. I hear what

585
00:33:55,520 --> 00:34:00,080
Speaker 2: you're saying. I say, Kwan's amazing. But the Giants are

586
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 2: correctly looking at this by going, I'm not gonna win

587
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 2: us the super Bowl. It's not gonna win us the

588
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 2: super Bowl. You've argued on this show this year. The

589
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 2: Raiders are incentivized to lose. Why do they want just

590
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 2: Jacobs out there getting all kinds of yards for Jimmy Garoppolo.

591
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 5: They want Caleb Williams. Why would they do it?

592
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 2: I know it's fair, but that's not the NFL, so

593
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 2: not fair.

594
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,839
Speaker 4: If that was the case, why wouldn't the Giants sign

595
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 4: Saquon Barkley and get Caleb Williams. Our positioned themselves to

596
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 4: get Caleb Williams instead of tying wealth to a media

597
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 4: a mediocre quarterback for the next five years at a

598
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 4: price is way above its value. What are you doing there?

599
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 4: You're not a question, You're not doing anything. You're literally

600
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,920
Speaker 4: just throwing money out the window. Daniel Jones, he was

601
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 4: about to be out the league right without Brian David,

602
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 4: he was about to be out of the league.

603
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,319
Speaker 2: Brother, I hear you, all right. We can question it,

604
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 2: you can question it absolutely, But teams are terrified to

605
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,399
Speaker 2: be a laughing stock if there's no quarter.

606
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 4: I'm an offensive lineman. Man, Run the ball, player, I

607
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 4: hear you. Run the ball.

608
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:24,840
Speaker 5: The league used to be like when you played, the

609
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 5: league was like that.

610
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 4: Run the ball, man. League's not like that anymore. Let's

611
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 4: set the tempo. Let's not start the game with five passes.

612
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 4: Let's start it with full runs. I guarantee you we

613
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 4: get your first down.

614
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,319
Speaker 5: Tennessee Titan Football do exactly what you're saying.

615
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,480
Speaker 3: Perfect.

616
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 4: They are in the playoffs every year.

617
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 2: And what happens when they get every year?

618
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 4: Hey man, you gotta get there first to Giant's not

619
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 4: even gonna get there.

620
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,359
Speaker 2: They're not about to get there. Hey Tripp, we'll see, yeah,

621
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,759

00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,320
Speaker 2: talking about in a moment right here on Fox Sports Radio.

629
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:25,000
Speaker 2: Okay live tie Reck dot com studios. Just one year

630
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:32,320
Speaker 2: would be a disservice to the j E T s Jets,

631
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 2: Jets Jets get ready to eat from Salam. Your man,

632
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 2: Ayahuasca is playing into his forties.

633
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:45,799
Speaker 4: Just ask him. He not going anywhere if you say so.

634
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,400
Speaker 4: He said, so, all right, Well, do we listen to

635
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:54,719
Speaker 4: Aaron rodgerster? I mean, when did that become gospel? When

636
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:55,840
Speaker 4: did that become gospel?

637
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 2: It's not gospel, but it's interesting.

638
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 4: Hey man, I'm not listening to Aaron Rodgers. I'm just

639
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 4: gonna watch him play because the last time I saw

640
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 4: him play, he was garbage. So don't talk to me

641
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:16,160
Speaker 4: to death. You got a young team, they got dynamic talent.

642
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 4: Let's show some leadership and let's lead them. Let's take

643
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,160
Speaker 4: them to a place they haven't been in a long time.

644
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:28,320
Speaker 4: That's the playoffs. Then after the season, based on the success,

645
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 4: talk to me about how long you gonna play?

646
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,879
Speaker 2: Is that fit? That's fair? Right? Sure?

647
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 3: Like I don't want to hear any of that now.

648
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I mean he's answering a question, Hey, Aaron,

649
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 2: how long do you want to play? And he answered it.

650
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,240
Speaker 2: I do think people want to hear from Aaron Rodgers.

651
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,360
Speaker 2: Sometimes we want to hear from people we think we

652
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 2: don't want to hear from. I mean, I'm not gonna

653
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 2: name names, but go around to your national debate shows,

654
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 2: and how many people do you know who are like

655
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,959
Speaker 2: I really love hearing from that guy. No, no one's

656
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,439
Speaker 2: gonna say they love hearing from them, but they're gonna

657
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 2: tune in every day and they're going to react to

658
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 2: what they say. And Aaron Rodgers is a player version

659
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 2: of that. There's no doubt.

660
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,759
Speaker 3: I only watch those the people I want to hear from.

661
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,319
Speaker 2: No, I don't. I can't do the other stuff. Okay,

662
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 2: I hear you. I hear you. I think you're a

663
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 2: little bit more rational, a little bit more on the

664
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 2: inside than most. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I feel you. But

665
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 2: you know when Aaron talks, Yeah, we turn the MIC's on,

666
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 2: we turn the lights on, and we listen. For sure,

667
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 2: and the New York Jets are more interesting this year

668
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:39,359
Speaker 2: than they've been in the past. And I don't know

669
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:44,319
Speaker 2: if I think they're a playoff team, But if you

670
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 2: force me into the corner, I pick yes.

671
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:59,839
Speaker 4: In the AFC, yep, yeah, Okay.

672
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 2: I mean all four of those teams are gonna have

673
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:04,880
Speaker 2: for those divisions, are gonna have a winner now, right,

674
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:08,879
Speaker 2: and then you're gonna get three more teams. So let

675
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,319
Speaker 2: me say, what if I just say, take the four

676
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,320
Speaker 2: teams that we all have decided or winning the divisions,

677
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:18,400
Speaker 2: even though I bet they won't. But take the Chiefs, Jags, Bengals,

678
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 2: and Bills out of this. Okay, where do the Jets

679
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 2: rank with everything that's left then you have? Are they

680
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:29,320
Speaker 2: better than the Dolphins?

681
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,840
Speaker 3: I don't know. With the healthy two one, No, I

682
00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 3: wouldn't say that.

683
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 2: Okay, are they better than the Patriots?

684
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:38,120
Speaker 3: Get there?

685
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 2: Better than the.

686
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:41,800
Speaker 5: Patriots, Ravens, Steelers, Browns.

687
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:42,840
Speaker 3: Not better than the Ravens.

688
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 2: Okay, Titans, Colts, Texans.

689
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 3: And they not better than the Titans.

690
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 2: Really, I think they're better than the Titans.

691
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:56,920
Speaker 3: I wouldn't No, No, I wouldn't say that.

692
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 2: I mean Chargers, Raiders, Broncos, reason all those teams.

693
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,439
Speaker 4: The reason I say that is because the Titans may

694
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,720
Speaker 4: win that division, they might not be the Jags.

695
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,400
Speaker 2: Well, but okay, whoever's left over, right, I see what

696
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:11,879
Speaker 2: you're saying.

697
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I don't think they're better in Tennessee, and

698
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 4: I don't think they're better than Jacksonville.

699
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, of all those teams I just mentioned, they

700
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,359
Speaker 2: just got to be one of the top three, and

701
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 2: I think that that's moderately realistic. But more on that

702
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,200
Speaker 2: and another team where we need to ask that exact

703
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 2: same question coming up next on Fox Sports Radio.

708
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,719
Speaker 2: If the running back position is polarizing, then what is

709
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 2: the quarterback position? Plus there's actually developing news on this

710
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 2: running back conversation that we've been having for the last hour,

711
00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,840
Speaker 2: so we will get back to it. Mark Willard and

712
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:03,200

Speaker 2: be from, especially for those just joining us. I think

719
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 2: the synopsis of what you've said the first hour is, sure,

720
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 2: a great running back doesn't necessarily or clearly does not

721
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:38,359
Speaker 2: equal having a great quarterback. But most teams don't have

722
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 2: a great quarterback, So why not put the resources into

723
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,560
Speaker 2: a great running back If you don't, all right, hold

724
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 2: that thought and let's go to another team. Let's talk

725
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,760
Speaker 2: about the San Francisco forty nine ers for a second.

726
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,799
Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan, a guy you know well, said this week

727
00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 2: on NFL Network that he quote like all three options

728
00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 2: at quarterback and that's quote pretty cool to have that

729
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:13,279
Speaker 2: as a backdrop for his roster. Now, I'd argue he's

730
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:18,040
Speaker 2: only saying that because party is hurt. If brock Perty

731
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 2: wasn't hurt, I don't think you speak about your quarterbacks

732
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 2: in public that way. He's speaking about options because he

733
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 2: knows that the forty nine ers week one might need

734
00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:32,759
Speaker 2: to use one of the other two options. But to

735
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:36,720
Speaker 2: the point that you've made over the last hour, which

736
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:41,600
Speaker 2: is that quarterbacking greatness beats out everything else in the NFL.

737
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 5: Can you speak to this?

738
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 2: You don't want quote options at quarterback at all? Do

739
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 2: you know? I'd argue that it's not cool. I don't

740
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:57,359
Speaker 2: want options. I want one option, and I want that

741
00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 2: in a perfect world, to be abundant, clear, not just

742
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 2: for the fan base, but above all else for the

743
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:05,160
Speaker 2: locker room.

744
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, you don't want options. You don't want multiple options,

745
00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:16,279
Speaker 4: and you don't want no options, right because when you're

746
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 4: at those two precipice then you're losing. If you got

747
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:28,279
Speaker 4: more than one quarterback, you don't have a quarterback. So

748
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:35,840
Speaker 4: the notion of this is more of a political statement

749
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:40,360
Speaker 4: for him. I like all three options. You gotta remember

750
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:44,320
Speaker 4: the San Francisco forty nine ers just came off playing

751
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 4: and they were out of options in the NFC Championship game,

752
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:57,280
Speaker 4: literally out of options. So if you go into camp

753
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:03,479
Speaker 4: with three quarterbacks, one that you will be the starter

754
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:06,840
Speaker 4: at Rock Purty once he's healthy, then yeah, you feel

755
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 4: good about yourself. But knowing that you it came down

756
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 4: to you not having anyone, right, I mean that was

757
00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 4: I mean the forty nine ers were on their way.

758
00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:26,680
Speaker 4: They're making a dynamic run with the kid nobody had

759
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 4: ever heard of before, and he was playing great football

760
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 4: and all of a sudden, out of options, one play done,

761
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,839
Speaker 4: and so he feels good about the three options that

762
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,800
Speaker 4: he has because he just came from a place of none.

763
00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:48,800
Speaker 4: And I get that. I understand that going into training

764
00:44:48,840 --> 00:45:00,279
Speaker 4: camp with more than just a quarterback available means something, right,

765
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,680
Speaker 4: it means something. Now, you've got plenty of time for

766
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 4: Brock to get healthy. Trey Lance is there. Maybe he is,

767
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:07,960
Speaker 4: and maybe he's not developing.

768
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 3: I don't know.

769
00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 4: But then you bring in someone like a Sam Donald,

770
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:16,920
Speaker 4: who in that scheme probably will be a very successful quarterback.

771
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:22,880
Speaker 2: There are people here, and I know you know that

772
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:28,919
Speaker 2: this is a hotly discussed topic, even though training camp

773
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:32,640
Speaker 2: has only opened for rookies. There are people who believe

774
00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:37,879
Speaker 2: that what Kyle said last week, and tucked into the comments,

775
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 2: he said, I know people want it to be set

776
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 2: in stone, but it's not set in stone. People have

777
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:48,120
Speaker 2: translated that to mean it's an open competition at the

778
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 2: quarterback position. It's wide open. Now. I want you to

779
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:54,359
Speaker 2: tell me if I'm taking the wrong side on this,

780
00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:57,040
Speaker 2: because I've tried to coach the forty nine.

781
00:45:56,960 --> 00:46:01,080
Speaker 4: Er fan base through the idea of that. It's what

782
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,319
Speaker 4: you said, These are the things that he has to

783
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:06,760
Speaker 4: say in the sort of political climate.

784
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,880
Speaker 2: But also I think it's funny. And part of this

785
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 2: is excitement about the number three overall picking the draft

786
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 2: a year and a half ago and the controversy that

787
00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:20,080
Speaker 2: that brings in that he has barely played in talking

788
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 2: about Trey Lance. But the excitement at the idea of

789
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:28,080
Speaker 2: open competition. I'm like, if you are a fan of

790
00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 2: a team, you do not want a quarterback open competition

791
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:41,719
Speaker 2: in the month of August. Ever, what good comes out

792
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:45,239
Speaker 2: of that? It means by definition that neither one of

793
00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:48,719
Speaker 2: them is really that dude. And secondly, and this is

794
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:52,160
Speaker 2: what I'd really love to hear you speak on boy.

795
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:54,719
Speaker 2: That feels like that would mess up a locker room

796
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:58,240
Speaker 2: something awful, don't you think.

797
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:02,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, But I'm not. In terms of what's going on

798
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:07,160
Speaker 4: in San Francisco. They know their quarterback is there's no competition,

799
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:11,520
Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying. Yeah, it's yeah, they're fine. They

800
00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:14,440
Speaker 4: just need this kid to get healthy, they need him

801
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:17,920
Speaker 4: to be ready to go in September. But outside of that,

802
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,880
Speaker 4: the competition will be who's gonna be number two. Cam

803
00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:30,240
Speaker 4: can Trey Lance. I don't know, it's been what three years?

804
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:33,239
Speaker 4: Can he all of us say there three, you know,

805
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:38,360
Speaker 4: take steps forward. I mean he should be able to

806
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 4: beat out Sam Darnold though you know, well you would

807
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:46,960
Speaker 4: hope that, you would hope you got to You got

808
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:54,520
Speaker 4: also two first round draft picks, uh vying for second

809
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:57,520
Speaker 4: string job. I mean, that's a that's a pretty good

810
00:47:57,880 --> 00:48:03,120
Speaker 4: problem to have. Well, Oat, it's great talent in theory. However,

811
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:04,480
Speaker 4: it's also two guys.

812
00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:06,680
Speaker 2: It's two guys who have not progressed the way the

813
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:10,319
Speaker 2: draft they have to progress. They have underperformed. And I

814
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:12,840
Speaker 2: know people will go, but wait a minute, Trey hasn't played,

815
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:16,520
Speaker 2: and that that brushes aside all the time that the

816
00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 2: forty nine ers spend with him when it's not actually

817
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,600
Speaker 2: a game, and they're clearly not seeing the stuff that

818
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:25,120
Speaker 2: they want to see. To this point, here's something that's

819
00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:27,879
Speaker 2: more insider. And I've been meaning to ask you this

820
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:32,320
Speaker 2: because everybody when they look at this situation is looking

821
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,640
Speaker 2: for clues and Kyle, as we just said, he's not

822
00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:38,320
Speaker 2: going to give him. Oh, I like all three options,

823
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:42,680
Speaker 2: and that's pretty cool. And yeah, we'll just I have

824
00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 2: to wait and see, because Sam's awesome, and Trey's getting better,

825
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 2: and you saw what Brock did and blah blah blah

826
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:51,880
Speaker 2: blah blah coach speak. Here's what I want to know.

827
00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:58,560
Speaker 2: Brock Perdy's arm is badly injured at the time that

828
00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:05,760
Speaker 2: Free Agencies starts. However, all signs were good. The Niners

829
00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 2: and brought got the information that they wanted to hear. Yes,

830
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 2: this is a garden variety UCL we can do the

831
00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:20,759
Speaker 2: surgery and you can be in theory if there are

832
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:23,759
Speaker 2: no setbacks. Ready to go for week one and he

833
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:26,280
Speaker 2: went eight to o and the forty nine ers behind

834
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:31,320
Speaker 2: closed doors are saying, that's our starting quarterback. Meantime, number

835
00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:35,719
Speaker 2: three overall pick from two years ago is also sitting there.

836
00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:43,120
Speaker 2: Sam Donald signed for guaranteed money right away. What did

837
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:47,520
Speaker 2: they tell him to make him say? Yes, a guy

838
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:49,680
Speaker 2: who clearly would have had options elsewhere?

839
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:52,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, but what do you have the right options?

840
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:58,920
Speaker 2: Well, I would imagine that Sam Darnald, who started a

841
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:01,600
Speaker 2: bunch of football games down the stretch and is not

842
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:04,759
Speaker 2: that far removed from being a top five pick himself,

843
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:08,800
Speaker 2: I would imagine he could minimum find a clear path

844
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:11,160
Speaker 2: to the two for some team.

845
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:14,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, but where minimum? But where right?

846
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:17,719
Speaker 4: Okay, if you're a fan of Kyle Shanahan, which a

847
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:23,400
Speaker 4: lot of quarterbacks are, no, If you're a fan of

848
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:27,959
Speaker 4: the talent on the Sam Francisco forty nine team, which

849
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:32,960
Speaker 4: a lot of quarterbacks are boom, yes, then yeah, this

850
00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 4: wasn't very difficult. If he says, hey, look, we're not

851
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:41,479
Speaker 4: happy with Trey and how he's you. If you saw

852
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 4: what happened to us, we were one quarterback away, you

853
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:45,680
Speaker 4: can be that quarterback.

854
00:50:48,680 --> 00:50:50,759
Speaker 3: We're one quarterback away if we had you.

855
00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:53,919
Speaker 4: And also if we had you in that NFC championship game,

856
00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:55,360
Speaker 4: would have been in the Super Bowl.

857
00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:59,040
Speaker 2: Sure, but you could also start the year being deactivated

858
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:03,680
Speaker 2: a lot. And my that sounds embarrassing for either of

859
00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:08,640
Speaker 2: the top five picks who are facing that reality.

860
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:15,280
Speaker 4: At this point in his career. Where he is now, Yeah,

861
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:20,760
Speaker 4: the ego is gone your backup quarterback, brother, that's interesting,

862
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:24,240
Speaker 4: you're a backup quarterback. There is no ego. His trip

863
00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:29,400
Speaker 4: to where he is now is down. It's not up.

864
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:34,239
Speaker 4: He's not still ascending. He's descending. So where do you

865
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:36,080
Speaker 4: want to land? Do you want to land on the

866
00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:40,680
Speaker 4: on the bottom of as the Browns backup quarterback are

867
00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:45,000
Speaker 4: well right, like we're where are you trying to land back?

868
00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:47,000
Speaker 2: But some backups back up?

869
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:48,359
Speaker 3: Hey man?

870
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:50,359
Speaker 2: Like that they.

871
00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:54,760
Speaker 4: Ran out of quarterbacks in San Francisco. They're consistently running

872
00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:55,719
Speaker 4: out of quarterbacks.

873
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:59,520
Speaker 2: This is true. However, I also don't believe that that's

874
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:02,920
Speaker 2: the way Sam would look at it. Like, here's what

875
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:06,920
Speaker 2: I'm asking. Do you think that that the forty nine

876
00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:11,320
Speaker 2: ers looked at Sam and his representative and said, at minimum,

877
00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:15,399
Speaker 2: wink wink, we actually think you're ore too.

878
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:20,520
Speaker 4: I don't think they did it like that. I think

879
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 4: they said you got a real opportunity here. The rumors

880
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:25,880
Speaker 4: were out that they wanted they were looking to trade

881
00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:29,040
Speaker 4: Trey lance. That's what the rumors were. So you don't

882
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:30,560
Speaker 4: have to say what I'm getting it, but you don't

883
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 4: have to sell that because that's what was out there,

884
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:39,439
Speaker 4: that they're looking to move off trade lance. So yeah,

885
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 4: I'm coming in. Of course, you guys are trying to

886
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:44,279
Speaker 4: get It could have happened the next day. You don't

887
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:47,960
Speaker 4: you don't know, it could still happen. So what you

888
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:49,279
Speaker 4: want to do is you want to get to a

889
00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:52,840
Speaker 4: place where you feel comfortable. You think you can thrive

890
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:55,560
Speaker 4: and you think you can restart your clock as a

891
00:52:55,600 --> 00:53:00,000
Speaker 4: starter if something happens. That's his number. That was his number.

892
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:04,560
Speaker 4: Number one goal was to get to a place where

893
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:07,840
Speaker 4: if he've got a chance to play, he can reset

894
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:11,120
Speaker 4: his starting clock, because that's clock is over.

895
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:13,560
Speaker 3: He's run out of time there.

896
00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:24,920
Speaker 2: It's interesting, man, because as you said, it could still happen.

897
00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:29,799
Speaker 2: Whoever is going to end up being the three at

898
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,880
Speaker 2: the end of August, Boy, they end up in a

899
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:35,879
Speaker 2: real bad spot. I almost feel like, if Sam does

900
00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,160
Speaker 2: win that job, they've got to trade trade before they

901
00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:42,720
Speaker 2: tell anybody that trade didn't even win the two, because

902
00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:44,560
Speaker 2: the sure as hell can't tell the world that he's

903
00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:47,319
Speaker 2: the three and then ever get anything out of him

904
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:51,080
Speaker 2: going forward unless there's a total car wreck exactly like

905
00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:52,839
Speaker 2: last year and it ends up in his lap with

906
00:53:52,880 --> 00:54:00,439
Speaker 2: no choice, which could happen. But that's a bad look

907
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:04,880
Speaker 2: to end up listed as the three after the man

908
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,400
Speaker 2: has only started four games in his entire career be

909
00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:08,960
Speaker 2: a number three pick in the whole draft.

910
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:18,680
Speaker 4: I understand that it's just he really is in a

911
00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:23,400
Speaker 4: good spot right now. Sam or Trey. Sam Trey is

912
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:29,439
Speaker 4: look that that that's that that ship has sailed, has

913
00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:34,200
Speaker 4: it now? Oh yeah, he's San Francisco.

Speaker 2: said this year that Brock Purdy is quote incredibly unique.

930
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:32,200
Speaker 2: You and I seem to be on the same page.

931
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:34,759
Speaker 2: Forty nine ers know damn well who their quarterback is.

932
00:55:35,120 --> 00:55:37,759
Speaker 2: They just have to say it a certain way. The

933
00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:41,040
Speaker 2: two most obvious reasons being a because brock Purdy is

934
00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:44,759
Speaker 2: not yet fully healthy and cleared, number one, and number two,

935
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:48,160
Speaker 2: they have to be nice to Trey Lance, both just

936
00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:50,440
Speaker 2: to be nice but also to keep trade value up.

937
00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:53,719
Speaker 5: So if they truly do know who their quarterback is.

938
00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:58,319
Speaker 2: Does that put them in a category where we have

939
00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:01,839
Speaker 2: not been putting them so far? Because the forty nine

940
00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:04,440
Speaker 2: ers are the only one of the five to seven

941
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:09,799
Speaker 2: Super Bowl favorites who doesn't have that stud quarterback. It's

942
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:14,799
Speaker 2: Hertz and Burrow and Mahomes and Allen. Maybe some of

943
00:56:14,840 --> 00:56:18,360
Speaker 2: you will get to Doc or Lamar on that list,

944
00:56:18,880 --> 00:56:21,680
Speaker 2: or a Herbert, and then there's the forty nine ers

945
00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:24,640
Speaker 2: and people will go and they don't even know who

946
00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:28,360
Speaker 2: their quarterback is. And even if they do well he

947
00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:32,799
Speaker 2: I mean, my gosh, they're just winning with brock Purty.

948
00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:40,359
Speaker 5: System quarterback from what you see, and how.

949
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:43,560
Speaker 2: Many games do you have to see it before you

950
00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:46,920
Speaker 2: can believe what you see?

951
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:51,480
Speaker 4: When I saw it, Rock Parties, I saw somebody who

952
00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:55,560
Speaker 4: couldn't be sped up and who couldn't be shaken, which

953
00:56:55,600 --> 00:57:01,400
Speaker 4: is two ingredients you need in a stable, sustainable quarterback.

954
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:06,520
Speaker 4: It never seemed like it was too big for him ever,

955
00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:11,600
Speaker 4: and every game was completely too big for mister irrelevant.

956
00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 4: But you wouldn't tell. We would come on air and

957
00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:23,800
Speaker 4: talk about it, and right from the beginning that was

958
00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:28,800
Speaker 4: pretty good, or like we were living it together.

959
00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:32,800
Speaker 2: I can't wait, I can I say have o'clock Pacific

960
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:37,520
Speaker 2: on Sundays, like I remember, wait, we will have.

961
00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:41,600
Speaker 4: We would talk and we were saying, okay, well, I said,

962
00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:44,880
Speaker 4: I would throw things out there to you. What if

963
00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:48,800
Speaker 4: he wins this, what happens if he takes him to

964
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:53,840
Speaker 4: the playoffs, what happens if all of those things happened.

965
00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 4: Every single one of them happened, except for what happens

966
00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:03,720
Speaker 4: if they win the Super Bowl with sure Shore And

967
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:06,840
Speaker 4: that's because of a minute an injury. And I became

968
00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:09,560
Speaker 4: a rock pretty fan, Like I was like, yo, this

969
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:16,720
Speaker 4: is my guy, you know. Seventh Rounders United, and we

970
00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:21,960
Speaker 4: lived in and talked through that journey and we were

971
00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:28,120
Speaker 4: utterly impressed every single week. So what I saw was

972
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:35,000
Speaker 4: someone who was a starting quarterback in the NFL, and

973
00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:38,200
Speaker 4: he played like a starting quarterback in the NFL and

974
00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:43,120
Speaker 4: the toughest, biggest games on one of the most talented teams.

975
00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:43,880
Speaker 3: That's what I saw.

976
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:52,200
Speaker 2: A starting quarterback in the NFL. That's a layered statement now,

977
00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:57,760
Speaker 2: and I'm not obviously asking if there's some sort of

978
00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:01,080
Speaker 2: a comparison between what the forty nine have at quarterback

979
00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:08,000
Speaker 2: and those other favorites I mentioned. Of course, there's nobody

980
00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:11,880
Speaker 2: is confusing this with Mahomes or Alan or Burrow or

981
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:16,800
Speaker 2: or Jalen Hurts, although Jalen Hurts also a small sample

982
00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:20,880
Speaker 2: size of playing at his elite level, longer than Brock,

983
00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:25,240
Speaker 2: but still a small sample. Nobody went into last year

984
00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:27,520
Speaker 2: thinking it was gonna it was gonna look like that.

985
00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:30,880
Speaker 2: I guess what I play with all the time is this.

986
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:35,120
Speaker 2: You know, eight games is one thing in professional sports,

987
00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:37,200
Speaker 2: it's all about sustainability.

988
00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:39,920
Speaker 5: But how many games?

989
00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:43,280
Speaker 2: Because we've seen people go on a run and and

990
00:59:43,280 --> 00:59:46,520
Speaker 2: and throw this out to all kinds of sports. There's insanity.

991
00:59:47,400 --> 00:59:53,200
Speaker 2: I can even do Jimmy like Ryan Fitzpatrick, like Fitzmagic

992
00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:56,760
Speaker 2: will show up for four weeks and you're like, damn,

993
00:59:56,880 --> 01:00:03,000
Speaker 2: but it doesn't last, right, how many games before you go, Okay,

994
01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:07,439
Speaker 2: that's it, that's just who this is a season. Next

995
01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:11,120
Speaker 2: at the end of the season, okay, then you so

996
01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:12,040
Speaker 2: he's not there yet?

997
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:13,840
Speaker 4: No, No, no, he's not there yet. No, no, because we

998
01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:20,280
Speaker 4: got the same thing with uh with Jimmy Garoppolo, right

999
01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:25,040
Speaker 4: seven o seven as a starter, right, it was it

1000
01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:28,160
Speaker 4: three in New England and then he came right in one.

1001
01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:32,360
Speaker 2: They yes, well right they when they when he showed up,

1002
01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:34,600
Speaker 2: he won six in a row for an awful team

1003
01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:37,440
Speaker 2: that was one in ten before or or whatever. It

1004
01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:42,800
Speaker 2: was right like, yeah, we got one here right then,

1005
01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:46,400
Speaker 2: the injury average, they had never averaged points like this.

1006
01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:49,160
Speaker 4: No, no, no, this is because the team is better.

1007
01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:54,640
Speaker 4: The team is better. Okay, here's your state. What about but.

1008
01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:58,560
Speaker 2: Jimmy last year, Jimmy last year with the same team

1009
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:02,880
Speaker 2: was winning game, but not like about twenty three again,

1010
01:01:02,960 --> 01:01:07,160
Speaker 2: not like this score thirty three again.

1011
01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:09,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, you give me a full season of brock Purty

1012
01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:12,600
Speaker 4: playing the way he played and the way that they

1013
01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:16,439
Speaker 4: and I believe he can play, then sign me up,

1014
01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:18,960
Speaker 4: sign me up.

1015
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:20,000
Speaker 3: I'm in. I'm all in.

1016
01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:24,160
Speaker 2: Yep. But it's still an if. It's still an if. Yeah,

1017
01:01:24,760 --> 01:01:27,360
Speaker 2: I'm with you, I'm absolutely.

1018
01:01:26,840 --> 01:01:31,479
Speaker 4: With Asistency is the key in the NFL. One year

1019
01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:33,840
Speaker 4: does not make a consistent starter.

1020
01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:37,960
Speaker 2: No, But at the same time, like we don't we

1021
01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:43,320
Speaker 2: don't play with a fair deck if you will. For instance,

1022
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:47,800
Speaker 2: here's what I mean by that. Sure, no, forget my homes,

1023
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:52,440
Speaker 2: forget Burrow, forget Allen, forget stuff like that. But I

1024
01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:55,720
Speaker 2: could argue that Purty has already gone on a run

1025
01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:59,600
Speaker 2: that many quarterbacks we prop up have never done.

1026
01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:00,640
Speaker 3: We get that.

1027
01:02:01,280 --> 01:02:06,680
Speaker 2: But Justin Herbert, Justin Herbert never did that. No, Deshaun

1028
01:02:06,720 --> 01:02:08,080
Speaker 2: Watson never did that.

1029
01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:10,040
Speaker 3: Nobody did leave the league in passing.

1030
01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:14,000
Speaker 2: Go ahead, Okay, but I thought this was about winning,

1031
01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:16,600
Speaker 2: and I know I lost her right.

1032
01:02:16,600 --> 01:02:21,640
Speaker 4: Yea Lawrence passing with nobody on his team in terms

1033
01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:23,120
Speaker 4: of de John Watson.

1034
01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:27,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, well yeah, I get that. So uh, Dak Prescott,

1035
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:31,920
Speaker 2: Dak Prescott has never done that. No, No, he hasn't.

1036
01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:37,480
Speaker 2: It's interesting. It's interesting. I mean, there's a very very

1037
01:02:37,520 --> 01:02:40,400
Speaker 2: simple question that I feel like we'll get all kinds

1038
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:42,280
Speaker 2: of answers if you just go off to people and

1039
01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:44,000
Speaker 2: be like, hey, do you think brock Perty is good?

1040
01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:47,400
Speaker 2: And if you don't, what word.

1041
01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:47,880
Speaker 5: Would you use?

1042
01:02:48,640 --> 01:02:52,800
Speaker 2: I think he's pretty good. Well I knew what word

1043
01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:56,120
Speaker 2: you'd use. Good lord, all right, I'm glad you brought

1044
01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:58,880
Speaker 2: up Garoppolo because I got a question there as well.

1045
01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:01,720
Speaker 2: But here we go Steve de Seger, Come on, man,

1046
01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:05,920
Speaker 2: let's come on in here. No system quarterback here? What's

1047
01:03:05,960 --> 01:03:07,000
Speaker 2: this talent? There?

1048
01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:08,320
Speaker 3: He goes superstar.

1049
01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:11,640
Speaker 7: Most NFL veterans do report to training camp on Tuesday.

1050
01:03:11,760 --> 01:03:15,120
Speaker 7: Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo passed his physical, so he will

1051
01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:17,560
Speaker 7: not start camp on the pupp list after his broken

1052
01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:21,280
Speaker 7: foot last season. The Raiders unsigned running back Josh Jacobs

1053
01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:24,800
Speaker 7: could skip the preseason. He's currently subject to the franchise tag.

1054
01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:28,520
Speaker 7: Ravens wide receiver Rashad Bateman was reinstated from the did

1055
01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:32,160
Speaker 7: not report list. Bears wide receiver Chase Claypool was placed

1056
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:35,640
Speaker 7: on the pup list physically unable to perform. Cincinnati plays

1057
01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:38,880
Speaker 7: tackle Lyle Collins on the pup list. Denver says running

1058
01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:41,800
Speaker 7: back Javonte Williams will not start camp on the pup list.

1059
01:03:41,920 --> 01:03:45,800
Speaker 7: Vikings rookie wide receiver Jordan Addison reported to camp today.

1060
01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:48,960
Speaker 7: Denny Hamlin took the NASCAR Race at Pocono, his seventh

1061
01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:51,800
Speaker 7: Cup Series victory there and fiftieth win of his career.

1062
01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,600
Speaker 7: American Brian Harmon won the open by six strokes. John

1063
01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:58,840
Speaker 7: rom tied for second place, as did Jason Day. Rory

1064
01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:02,920
Speaker 7: McElroy tied for Brooks Koepka shot seventy five in the

1065
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:05,480
Speaker 7: rain and fell to a tie for sixty fourth place.

1066
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:07,000
Speaker 2: I was thinking, how.

1067
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:09,440
Speaker 7: Does this compare to a payout he got this weekend

1068
01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:14,240
Speaker 7: in Liverpool, to maybe a live golf weekend. Brooks Pepka

1069
01:04:14,280 --> 01:04:18,800
Speaker 7: earned thirty nine thousand dollars this weekend for sixty fourth place.

1070
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:22,200
Speaker 7: The answer is, there is no sixty fourth place in

1071
01:04:22,320 --> 01:04:27,160
Speaker 7: live golf. It's a shorter field and no cut. And besides,

1072
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:29,600
Speaker 7: if you finish dead last at a live tournament, you

1073
01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:32,600
Speaker 7: still get over one hundred thousand dollars. At the Women's

1074
01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:35,840
Speaker 7: World Cup FS one, we'll have a triple header starting

1075
01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:40,320
Speaker 7: late tonight two am Eastern Time, Italy against Argentina. Then

1076
01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:43,920
Speaker 7: it's Germany against Morocco. Then at seven am Eastern Brazil

1077
01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:47,080
Speaker 7: Panama on FS one. In Major League Baseball, the Sunday

1078
01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:49,560
Speaker 7: night game is in Boston and the Red Sox now

1079
01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:51,520
Speaker 7: leads six to one over the Mets. In the top

1080
01:04:51,520 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 7: of the eighth, Rafael Devers with a solo homer. He

1081
01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:58,440
Speaker 7: has twenty four home runs and seventy four RBIs Angels

Speaker 2: you'll see.

1132
01:07:30,040 --> 01:07:31,560
Speaker 7: That could not contain herself.

1133
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:35,160
Speaker 2: But you could put it that way. She was also terrified.

1134
01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:36,919
Speaker 3: I would have never shown up there.

1135
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:40,560
Speaker 7: No, I would terrify.

1136
01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:43,280
Speaker 2: Her, like can you imagine? Right, Like let's say I

1137
01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:45,200
Speaker 2: don't know what the woman does for a living, but

1138
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:46,600
Speaker 2: let's say she's a thing.

1139
01:07:46,760 --> 01:07:47,920
Speaker 7: Now that's the answer.

01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:54,240
Speaker 2: intom all.

1143
01:07:54,280 --> 01:07:56,760
Speaker 4: But I wouldn't even call it, like if you just

01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:00,760
Speaker 4: I wouldn't even call I'm good, just be like you know,

1145
01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:02,600
Speaker 4: I'm like, no, figure it out.

1146
01:08:02,800 --> 01:08:05,600
Speaker 2: But it was it was we all think of this

1147
01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:09,640
Speaker 2: as such like the dream. Everybody right, you won the lottery.

1148
01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:14,440
Speaker 2: This woman, though, she it was as if she wasn't sure.

1149
01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:17,479
Speaker 2: I didn't get all the context, but she wasn't sure

1150
01:08:18,479 --> 01:08:21,320
Speaker 2: if the ticket was what she thought it was, so

1151
01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:25,160
Speaker 2: she went back to the convenience store to check, and

1152
01:08:25,320 --> 01:08:29,559
Speaker 2: indeed it was, and then she starts crying. And now

1153
01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:33,760
Speaker 2: there's twenty five cameras who hit the lights and turn it.

1154
01:08:33,800 --> 01:08:37,679
Speaker 2: Can you imagine for any of us regular peeps, how

1155
01:08:37,840 --> 01:08:43,519
Speaker 2: terrifying that would be one point eight billion. Okay, put

1156
01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:45,240
Speaker 2: your face on TV. Here we go.

1157
01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:49,799
Speaker 4: It might roughly be five hundred and forty six million.

1158
01:08:50,120 --> 01:08:53,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it depends, depends, depends on if you take the

1159
01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:53,679
Speaker 2: lump something.

1160
01:08:53,760 --> 01:08:59,240
Speaker 4: Nobody at this point nobody's taking the lumps. I mean,

1161
01:08:59,280 --> 01:09:04,840
Speaker 4: nobody's taking the twenty years thirty is thirty years thirty, right,

1162
01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:07,040
Speaker 4: it was twenty I thought it was twenty. But nobody's

1163
01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:09,120
Speaker 4: doing that to give me my money, man, figure it out.

1164
01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:11,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you get less.

1165
01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:17,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you can also go broke without really Yes,

1166
01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:21,439
Speaker 4: you you want to love because you well you're not

1167
01:09:21,479 --> 01:09:23,920
Speaker 4: getting you know, what is that broke? But listen, what

1168
01:09:24,080 --> 01:09:25,200
Speaker 4: I don't wrong?

1169
01:09:25,280 --> 01:09:28,240
Speaker 7: Yea invest in a movie, invest in a restaurant that'll

1170
01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:29,760
Speaker 7: take care of a half of it right away.

1171
01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:33,280
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. But we act like

1172
01:09:33,400 --> 01:09:36,280
Speaker 2: at that number one billion, We act like the one

1173
01:09:36,360 --> 01:09:39,080
Speaker 2: check that you'd get every twenty years. We could live

1174
01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:39,960
Speaker 2: on one of those.

1175
01:09:40,680 --> 01:09:43,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, but that that doesn't happen because you know that

1176
01:09:43,479 --> 01:09:47,400
Speaker 4: check is coming again, so you overspend.

1177
01:09:48,160 --> 01:09:51,479
Speaker 5: But this becomes brewsters millions, my man life.

1178
01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:53,719
Speaker 4: But if you okay, say you get twenty million dollars

1179
01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:57,080
Speaker 4: a year and you buy a fifteen million dollar home,

1180
01:09:57,800 --> 01:09:59,800
Speaker 4: I think it'd be thirty. I think you get thirty

1181
01:09:59,840 --> 01:10:02,760
Speaker 4: min You buy a fifteen million dollar home, you buy

1182
01:10:02,840 --> 01:10:05,280
Speaker 4: two million in cars, you buy your mom a two

1183
01:10:05,320 --> 01:10:11,240
Speaker 4: million dollar house. You buy that thirty million dollars risk

1184
01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:14,640
Speaker 4: it's gonna grow right. In fact, you get it every January.

1185
01:10:14,680 --> 01:10:19,400
Speaker 4: First it's June, you've spent twenty seven million dollars, and

1186
01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:21,920
Speaker 4: you get you have to live the right like, so

1187
01:10:22,040 --> 01:10:24,080
Speaker 4: you get yourself in this situations.

1188
01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:28,160
Speaker 2: But I'm pretty supposing that you wouldn't be a massive buffoon.

1189
01:10:28,960 --> 01:10:30,679
Speaker 2: Have you seen the stories?

1190
01:10:31,040 --> 01:10:37,400
Speaker 4: Have you seen the there everyone is as a massive before?

1191
01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:40,559
Speaker 2: Who the hell would get a check for thirty million

1192
01:10:40,600 --> 01:10:42,280
Speaker 2: and be like, so I think I should spend it

1193
01:10:42,280 --> 01:10:43,080
Speaker 2: by tomorrow.

1194
01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:45,800
Speaker 4: When you're not used to having done it, when you're

1195
01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:47,320
Speaker 4: not used to having money.

1196
01:10:47,400 --> 01:10:51,040
Speaker 7: This relates discords es made, this this is real.

1197
01:10:51,760 --> 01:10:53,760
Speaker 4: But who's you can look at you can look at

1198
01:10:53,800 --> 01:10:56,479
Speaker 4: one hundred million dollar athletes and be like, how do

1199
01:10:56,520 --> 01:11:00,200
Speaker 4: they have zero dollars? Because when you're not, you to

1200
01:11:00,360 --> 01:11:03,760
Speaker 4: getting money and hangs on and family that you have

1201
01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:07,920
Speaker 4: for when fall come in, you lose your mind.

1202
01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:11,360
Speaker 2: But couldn't I argue then that you could? You could

1203
01:11:11,439 --> 01:11:17,040
Speaker 2: spend the lump sum something like. The cool thing about

1204
01:11:17,120 --> 01:11:19,679
Speaker 2: thirty a year is if I blow this, I got

1205
01:11:19,720 --> 01:11:21,719
Speaker 2: another thirty coming next year.

1206
01:11:22,520 --> 01:11:25,400
Speaker 5: I'd have to make the same mistake twenty times.

Speaker 4: Nah, give me mine, I'm no, I hear you, I

1219
01:12:00,240 --> 01:12:03,600
Speaker 2: from Salam Fox Sports Radio. Okay, these here are the

1220
01:12:03,720 --> 01:12:10,160
Speaker 2: tire Reck dot Com Studios, Wizard and Salaam Fox Sports Radio.

1221
01:12:10,360 --> 01:12:12,800
Speaker 2: Glad you're with us on this Sunday night. So you've

1222
01:12:12,840 --> 01:12:15,680
Speaker 2: heard to Segre say it a couple of times. Garoppolo

1223
01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:20,040
Speaker 2: past his physical Uh, that's big news for him. But

1224
01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:24,799
Speaker 2: you have also placed the Las Vegas Raiders very high

1225
01:12:25,479 --> 01:12:31,599
Speaker 2: on the Caleb Williams hotline, if you will, so, here

1226
01:12:31,640 --> 01:12:36,920
Speaker 2: we go. Garoppolo's gonna play, Josh Jacobs might not. How

1227
01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:39,960
Speaker 2: do you think that this is going to go? Fill

1228
01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:42,559
Speaker 2: in the blank. The Raiders will finish the AFC West

1229
01:12:42,680 --> 01:12:45,880
Speaker 2: in blank place, in fourth place.

1230
01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:52,640
Speaker 4: I agree with you, They're not one of those teams

1231
01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:55,519
Speaker 4: that can't have a dynamic running game.

1232
01:12:58,840 --> 01:13:00,360
Speaker 3: They need the running game.

1233
01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:05,320
Speaker 4: It takes the pressure off whoever's playing quarterback and allows

1234
01:13:06,560 --> 01:13:11,000
Speaker 4: DeVante Adams to be special. Without the running game, they're

1235
01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:14,759
Speaker 4: just gonna put a safety over the top, Sir, I say.

1236
01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:18,479
Speaker 2: A new quarterback this year. Obviously, they went six and

1237
01:13:18,520 --> 01:13:21,479
Speaker 2: eleven with that running game last year, so I guess

1238
01:13:21,800 --> 01:13:24,400
Speaker 2: I mean this hearkens back to the conversation that we

1239
01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:29,160
Speaker 2: had off the top of the show, which is I'm

1240
01:13:29,160 --> 01:13:32,040
Speaker 2: not in disagreement with you so much as to say

1241
01:13:32,760 --> 01:13:35,880
Speaker 2: I understand why NFL teams approach it the way that

1242
01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:40,120
Speaker 2: they do, because maybe the Raiders would have been three

1243
01:13:40,160 --> 01:13:43,439
Speaker 2: and fourteen without Josh Jacobs, but they were six and

1244
01:13:43,479 --> 01:13:47,759
Speaker 2: eleven with him, which amounts to essentially the same place.

1245
01:13:48,640 --> 01:13:51,599
Speaker 2: And in fact, you could argue, and I bet most

1246
01:13:51,640 --> 01:13:54,960
Speaker 2: general managers would. If you're going to stink and miss

1247
01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:58,040
Speaker 2: the playoffs, do it in epic fashion.

1248
01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:02,160
Speaker 5: Get me, Caleb Williams.

1249
01:14:01,640 --> 01:14:05,160
Speaker 2: Right, I want you would. Everybody would rather win three

1250
01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:07,240
Speaker 2: games than than six this year.

1251
01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:13,320
Speaker 4: Yes, yes you would. So if that's the play then

1252
01:14:13,360 --> 01:14:16,519
Speaker 4: of course you don't sign Josh Jacobs and you just

1253
01:14:16,600 --> 01:14:20,160
Speaker 4: go out there and be the Raiders. They're in a

1254
01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:22,960
Speaker 4: tough division. No one expects them to win, come in second,

1255
01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:25,160
Speaker 4: or make the playoffs in that division.

1256
01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:32,800
Speaker 2: Except for Raider fans. Yeah, right, well yes, and they

1257
01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:36,960
Speaker 2: expect it every year. Yes they do. They're like cowboy fans. Yes,

1258
01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:42,200
Speaker 2: they are not very realistic. That was a nice way

1259
01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:43,800
Speaker 2: to say it. That was a very nice way to

1260
01:14:43,800 --> 01:14:45,800
Speaker 2: say it. The whole thing is going to be a

1261
01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:50,920
Speaker 2: very interesting sort of reality. I can't wait to see

1262
01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:54,360
Speaker 2: what Garoppolo looks like as a starter for the first

1263
01:14:54,400 --> 01:14:58,120
Speaker 2: time away from Kyle Shanahan. I think that that's going

1264
01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:00,000
Speaker 2: to be very interesting. I think it's going to be

1265
01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:03,960
Speaker 2: fascinating to watch what the running backs in this division

1266
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:07,000
Speaker 2: and beyond do and we'll get to it coming up

1267
01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:08,880
Speaker 2: here at the top of the hour. But one of

1268
01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:11,880
Speaker 2: the other running backs in the division organized a big

1269
01:15:11,920 --> 01:15:15,400
Speaker 2: old thing with all of the running backs that apparently

1270
01:15:15,439 --> 01:15:18,639
Speaker 2: happen at some point earlier this week. That other running

1271
01:15:18,640 --> 01:15:22,360
Speaker 2: back was Austin Eckler, and he is sort of parenthetically

1272
01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:27,760
Speaker 2: involved in this conversation as well. But look, I know

1273
01:15:28,000 --> 01:15:31,240
Speaker 2: from you also know the way these things usually play out.

1274
01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:36,040
Speaker 2: The holdout is fine until you're actually losing money. And

1275
01:15:36,200 --> 01:15:39,600
Speaker 2: because Barkley and Jacobs, because these guys are on a

1276
01:15:39,640 --> 01:15:43,360
Speaker 2: franchise tag, they're not really going to lose anything until

1277
01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:48,240
Speaker 2: we get much later in this process. And usually the

1278
01:15:48,320 --> 01:15:51,880
Speaker 2: player blinks. I know Barkley has been outspoken that he's

1279
01:15:51,920 --> 01:15:56,800
Speaker 2: not going to blink. I sort of want to believe him.

1280
01:15:57,000 --> 01:16:00,360
Speaker 2: But Josh Jacobs, for as good as he's been, he's

1281
01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:03,800
Speaker 2: not say Kwon Barkley, and I have a hard time

1282
01:16:03,880 --> 01:16:08,040
Speaker 2: believing he's going to do anything other than eventually drop

1283
01:16:08,120 --> 01:16:11,599
Speaker 2: his shoulders and show up and play for ten million dollars.

1284
01:16:12,920 --> 01:16:13,160
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1285
01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:16,800
Speaker 4: I don't think collectively all of the guys are going

1286
01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:20,320
Speaker 4: to sit out. That would be nice and solidarity, but

1287
01:16:21,479 --> 01:16:25,560
Speaker 4: it wouldn't really move the needle. It's not like, oh,

1288
01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:28,320
Speaker 4: you need these four running backs or these three running

1289
01:16:28,360 --> 01:16:30,160
Speaker 4: backs to be in the league for the league to

1290
01:16:30,200 --> 01:16:37,080
Speaker 4: be watchable. So you know, Le'Veon Bell set out, he

1291
01:16:37,200 --> 01:16:42,960
Speaker 4: never recovered, was never the same in terms of his

1292
01:16:43,120 --> 01:16:49,439
Speaker 4: value or his productivity. So you know what I would

1293
01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:55,760
Speaker 4: suggest is you sit out for.

1294
01:16:57,680 --> 01:16:58,040
Speaker 2: What is it?

1295
01:16:58,080 --> 01:16:59,720
Speaker 3: If you're not on, you can sit all the way

1296
01:16:59,720 --> 01:17:01,280
Speaker 3: out to with the eighth game, I.

1297
01:17:01,200 --> 01:17:05,519
Speaker 2: Believe, Yeah, yes, it's either six or eight. I think

1298
01:17:05,560 --> 01:17:07,320
Speaker 2: you're right. I think it's I think it's eight now

1299
01:17:07,360 --> 01:17:08,679
Speaker 2: because it's seventeen games.

1300
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:16,160
Speaker 4: Yes, so make your statement. Hope your team goes oh

1301
01:17:16,240 --> 01:17:20,519
Speaker 4: to eight and you come in and then you go

1302
01:17:20,720 --> 01:17:22,200
Speaker 4: eight and oh.

1303
01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:26,040
Speaker 2: Well, the last time this worked by a running back

1304
01:17:26,120 --> 01:17:30,400
Speaker 2: it was EMITTT. Smith. Yes, yep, and the Cowboys blinked

1305
01:17:31,080 --> 01:17:33,880
Speaker 2: and said, here's a check. You can go ahead and

1306
01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:36,280
Speaker 2: fill that thing out and let's move on with our lives.

1307
01:17:37,280 --> 01:17:41,240
Speaker 2: But I would just contend that we slowly but surely

1308
01:17:41,320 --> 01:17:44,360
Speaker 2: slipped into this without realizing that this was going to

1309
01:17:44,400 --> 01:17:48,680
Speaker 2: be the collateral damage that took place. This is a

1310
01:17:48,840 --> 01:17:55,040
Speaker 2: passing league. We all know that now, So you're not

1311
01:17:55,320 --> 01:17:59,920
Speaker 2: going to put huge dollars into a spot that does

1312
01:18:00,120 --> 01:18:05,240
Speaker 2: not necessarily support you're passing. Now. I know some running

1313
01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:08,439
Speaker 2: backs do. That's why Eckler is an interesting guy. And

1314
01:18:08,520 --> 01:18:10,840
Speaker 2: even the guys who block, well, they're involved in the

1315
01:18:10,880 --> 01:18:14,920
Speaker 2: passing game. But that's moving the needle down to things

1316
01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:18,800
Speaker 2: that are a little bit less significant than how they

1317
01:18:18,880 --> 01:18:22,680
Speaker 2: run the ball through the hole. You know, and you

1318
01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:26,200
Speaker 2: see it everywhere. We're all focused on Barkley and Jacobs

1319
01:18:26,280 --> 01:18:28,120
Speaker 2: right now. We're not even talking about the fact that

1320
01:18:28,160 --> 01:18:30,400
Speaker 2: Dalvin Cook doesn't even play in the NFL.

1321
01:18:31,200 --> 01:18:32,880
Speaker 5: The it doesn't even play.

1322
01:18:33,640 --> 01:18:34,559
Speaker 2: The Vikings were like.

1323
01:18:34,560 --> 01:18:36,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're fine, we don't need you.

1324
01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:39,040
Speaker 2: And the rest of the league went yeah a moment,

1325
01:18:39,120 --> 01:18:40,200
Speaker 2: will we're fine too.

1326
01:18:40,240 --> 01:18:41,960
Speaker 4: He had some legal issues he needs to take. He

1327
01:18:42,200 --> 01:18:44,479
Speaker 4: got some stuff. He got some stuff. There's no two

1328
01:18:44,520 --> 01:18:46,920
Speaker 4: ways about it. I got you. But you know what

1329
01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:47,479
Speaker 4: I'm saying.

1330
01:18:50,120 --> 01:18:53,559
Speaker 2: If Dalvin Cook's name were justin Jefferson, boy, those legal

1331
01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:56,480
Speaker 2: issues wouldn't be a problem, would they.

1332
01:18:57,280 --> 01:19:05,800
Speaker 4: No, So look, I feel bad for my running back

1333
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:12,439
Speaker 4: brethren because I know how important they are to a team.

1334
01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:18,160
Speaker 4: It's nothing more demoralizing than taking the football and jamming

1335
01:19:18,160 --> 01:19:19,839
Speaker 4: it down the throat of an opponent.

1336
01:19:20,760 --> 01:19:21,240
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.

1337
01:19:21,360 --> 01:19:30,200
Speaker 4: It's beautiful science beautiful. So I hate that they're being devalued.

1338
01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:33,640
Speaker 4: But it is a business and this is what it is.

1339
01:19:36,439 --> 01:19:38,080
Speaker 2: You know. I'm looking around the league at some of

1340
01:19:38,120 --> 01:19:40,479
Speaker 2: these these the top pay guys right now and ask

1341
01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:44,280
Speaker 2: their teams if they would do it again if somebody

1342
01:19:44,320 --> 01:19:47,600
Speaker 2: gave him an opportunity to do so. You know, McCaffrey,

1343
01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:50,200
Speaker 2: as I said, that's two positions. The answer be yes.

1344
01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:52,519
Speaker 2: But what do you think what's going to happen to

1345
01:19:52,560 --> 01:19:53,760
Speaker 2: Derrick Henry after this year?

1346
01:19:56,439 --> 01:20:00,519
Speaker 4: He might be the yeah, but he is leah and

1347
01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:05,400
Speaker 4: rushing this year, somebody gonna pay him?

1348
01:20:05,600 --> 01:20:09,439
Speaker 2: All right? What did the running backs just do about

1349
01:20:09,520 --> 01:20:12,160
Speaker 2: all this? We'll have that for you coming up next

1350
01:20:12,200 --> 01:20:13,160

1356
01:20:28,040 --> 01:20:31,200
Speaker 2: sentence would have made sense. But has anything really great

1357
01:20:31,280 --> 01:20:35,320
Speaker 2: ever happened on Zoom? There's a reason I'm asking, and

1358
01:20:35,400 --> 01:20:37,840
Speaker 2: I'll explain in a moment. We're broadcasting live from the

1363
01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:54,680
Speaker 2: Mark Willard, Howdy, how we all doing on a Sunday night.

1364
01:20:54,760 --> 01:20:58,599
Speaker 2: Thank you for being with us here on Fox Sports Sunday.

1365
01:20:58,960 --> 01:21:01,120
Speaker 2: I mean it makes all of us roll our eyes,

1366
01:21:01,160 --> 01:21:04,640
Speaker 2: even though it has become a post pandemic necessity in

1367
01:21:04,720 --> 01:21:10,080
Speaker 2: our world. And that is the idea of being on zoom.

1368
01:21:10,520 --> 01:21:14,320
Speaker 2: It's hard. It's hard to stay focused for a long

1369
01:21:14,360 --> 01:21:17,839
Speaker 2: time on Zoom. It's hard to really be inspired on Zoom.

1370
01:21:18,439 --> 01:21:22,000
Speaker 2: But Ephraim, that's where it went down. It has been

1371
01:21:22,120 --> 01:21:27,000
Speaker 2: confirmed that many of the league's running backs took part

1372
01:21:27,160 --> 01:21:32,280
Speaker 2: in a Zoom call yesterday to discuss their depressed market

1373
01:21:32,680 --> 01:21:35,240
Speaker 2: for all of the players at their position. Let me

1374
01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:38,040
Speaker 2: give you some names. This is a high powered zoom.

1375
01:21:38,520 --> 01:21:42,160
Speaker 2: It was put together originally by Austin Eckler. Nick Chubb

1376
01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:45,880
Speaker 2: was there, say Kwon Barkley was there, Dereck Henry was there,

1377
01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:51,639
Speaker 2: Christian McCaffrey was there, Josh Jacobs was there. So they

1378
01:21:51,640 --> 01:21:54,880
Speaker 2: all got together, and there were certainly more to sit

1379
01:21:54,960 --> 01:21:58,320
Speaker 2: down and talk about it. However, here's the quote from

1380
01:21:58,400 --> 01:22:04,439
Speaker 2: Nick Chubb that I think matter quote right now, there's

1381
01:22:04,479 --> 01:22:15,160
Speaker 2: really nothing we can do end quote. I mean there's more,

1382
01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:21,080
Speaker 2: but that's essentially what he's getting at. Right now, there's

1383
01:22:21,120 --> 01:22:25,400
Speaker 2: really nothing we can do, which is fundamental to the

1384
01:22:25,439 --> 01:22:26,360
Speaker 2: whole conversation.

1385
01:22:27,280 --> 01:22:31,799
Speaker 5: The NFL is not like quote unquote doing this.

1386
01:22:33,520 --> 01:22:36,479
Speaker 2: Right, you're not suggesting that the league's owners in general

1387
01:22:36,479 --> 01:22:41,400
Speaker 2: managers are like, moaha, guess what we're going to do next.

1388
01:22:42,040 --> 01:22:46,439
Speaker 2: We are going to take down the running back position.

1389
01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:50,840
Speaker 2: Evil laugh, Like, No, they're doing it because it can

1390
01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:56,439
Speaker 2: because for their bottom line. It makes sense because the

1391
01:22:56,560 --> 01:23:02,040
Speaker 2: unfortunate nature of the position and the way NFL offenses

1392
01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:08,520
Speaker 2: have gone, it makes sense for them.

1393
01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:16,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, it does. That's just what the market is saying

1394
01:23:16,400 --> 01:23:30,360
Speaker 4: to you. Teams are winning super Bowls without dynamic running games. Oh,

1395
01:23:30,479 --> 01:23:35,120
Speaker 4: they have dynamic quarterbacks. But we can look past that.

1396
01:23:37,240 --> 01:23:43,559
Speaker 4: We're not looking past it. We're not looking past it.

1397
01:23:43,600 --> 01:23:47,280
Speaker 2: But if you're a team and you know you don't

1398
01:23:47,320 --> 01:23:50,920
Speaker 2: have one of those guys, but that's how you win,

1399
01:23:52,080 --> 01:23:54,559
Speaker 2: wouldn't you save your ear until you have a shot

1400
01:23:54,600 --> 01:23:58,320
Speaker 2: at one of those guys like the Raiders we just

1401
01:23:58,320 --> 01:24:02,519
Speaker 2: talked about as the best example. Why would I break

1402
01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:06,000
Speaker 2: off a bunch of money at Josh Jacobs rather than

1403
01:24:06,800 --> 01:24:10,080
Speaker 2: save that money maybe for Caleb Williams.

1404
01:24:10,200 --> 01:24:12,599
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you don't have to pay Caleb Williams that money.

1405
01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:15,720
Speaker 4: If you get Caleb Williams, you don't need to pay

1406
01:24:15,800 --> 01:24:19,120
Speaker 4: him like that for four years or three years.

1407
01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:19,639
Speaker 2: Right.

1408
01:24:19,720 --> 01:24:23,960
Speaker 4: So, yeah, you would want to pair the league leading

1409
01:24:24,040 --> 01:24:29,320
Speaker 4: rusher with a rookie quarterback to make his job easier.

1410
01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:33,800
Speaker 4: That's how you should be thinking about it. That's how

1411
01:24:33,840 --> 01:24:39,799
Speaker 4: this should be working. Like, we're going to bring Caleb

1412
01:24:39,880 --> 01:24:43,640
Speaker 4: in with one of the top receivers, one of the

1413
01:24:43,640 --> 01:24:47,320
Speaker 4: top running backs, We're gonna bolster up our offensive line,

1414
01:24:47,560 --> 01:24:50,400
Speaker 4: and we're going to give him the necessary weapons for

1415
01:24:50,520 --> 01:24:53,519
Speaker 4: him to do something special from jump.

1416
01:24:56,720 --> 01:25:00,400
Speaker 2: That to me makes sense. I get that, but I

1417
01:25:00,439 --> 01:25:04,439
Speaker 2: know it also makes sense to you that, Like, there

1418
01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:08,360
Speaker 2: becomes a quicker shelf life to all of this, the

1419
01:25:08,360 --> 01:25:14,479
Speaker 2: more of those positions that you try to satisfy. The

1420
01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:16,800
Speaker 2: forty nine ers have the highest paid running back in

1421
01:25:16,840 --> 01:25:20,840
Speaker 2: the game, and they fit the description that you just

1422
01:25:21,760 --> 01:25:25,440
Speaker 2: laid out there. In fact, they've got two young quarterbacks

1423
01:25:25,479 --> 01:25:29,759
Speaker 2: with very little experience, and it does feel like they've

1424
01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:33,280
Speaker 2: got a star at almost every other position on the

1425
01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:38,519
Speaker 2: football field, on both sides of the ball. But that's

1426
01:25:38,520 --> 01:25:41,800
Speaker 2: gonna come get him now at some point, that's gonna

1427
01:25:41,880 --> 01:25:44,880
Speaker 2: The only reason that they're able to do that right

1428
01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:49,960
Speaker 2: now is because they're paying their quarterback nine hundred thousand dollars.

1429
01:25:52,680 --> 01:25:56,479
Speaker 2: But now quite some time, they don't have to pay

1430
01:25:56,560 --> 01:25:59,120
Speaker 2: him for a while. But three years from now, if

1431
01:25:59,160 --> 01:26:03,519
Speaker 2: he is actually good, you think that they're gonna go, well,

1432
01:26:03,640 --> 01:26:10,120
Speaker 2: we need sixteen million dollars for running back Kyle. You

1433
01:26:10,200 --> 01:26:12,400
Speaker 2: know Kyle Shanahan, and you know, damn well, what he's

1434
01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:17,160
Speaker 2: gonna do. He's gonna bring in four udfas and see

1435
01:26:17,200 --> 01:26:17,800
Speaker 2: how's it go.

1436
01:26:19,960 --> 01:26:20,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1437
01:26:20,400 --> 01:26:28,639
Speaker 4: But once again, these are all things that are happening

1438
01:26:28,680 --> 01:26:34,840
Speaker 4: down the road. They haven't happened yet. So there's an

1439
01:26:34,840 --> 01:26:39,160
Speaker 4: opportunity for the San Francisco forty nine ers to be

1440
01:26:39,280 --> 01:26:43,839
Speaker 4: as good as they possibly can while they're not shelling

1441
01:26:43,880 --> 01:26:52,120
Speaker 4: out forty five million dollars a year four quarterback. That's

1442
01:26:52,160 --> 01:26:59,040
Speaker 4: the formula, right you. The Giants did the opposite. They

1443
01:26:59,080 --> 01:27:04,120
Speaker 4: gave them money to the quarterback who's just average and

1444
01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:07,360
Speaker 4: their best player, offensive player, best player on the team.

1445
01:27:07,960 --> 01:27:10,479
Speaker 4: They don't want to pay him that. That's just crazy

1446
01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:14,040
Speaker 4: to me. What would you have had them do at quarterback?

1447
01:27:14,080 --> 01:27:21,960
Speaker 4: If you were them, I would have let the market

1448
01:27:22,479 --> 01:27:24,320
Speaker 4: tell us what Daniel Jones was worth.

1449
01:27:25,240 --> 01:27:27,320
Speaker 2: Okay, I would have.

1450
01:27:28,360 --> 01:27:33,040
Speaker 4: If I wouldn't have felt pressured to give him that

1451
01:27:33,160 --> 01:27:36,720
Speaker 4: type of deal. I would have let the market. Now,

1452
01:27:36,720 --> 01:27:38,519
Speaker 4: if the market bear a that, then I would have

1453
01:27:38,520 --> 01:27:39,800
Speaker 4: matched it. I would ask him, if you want to

1454
01:27:39,800 --> 01:27:44,920
Speaker 4: stay here, we'll match that contract. But I wouldn't. I

1455
01:27:44,920 --> 01:27:49,160
Speaker 4: wouldn't have preempted, preemptively gave him that amount of money.

1456
01:27:49,960 --> 01:27:50,679
Speaker 3: I would have signed.

1457
01:27:51,120 --> 01:27:53,320
Speaker 4: I would have had a conversation with Daniels like, hey,

1458
01:27:54,120 --> 01:27:58,200
Speaker 4: I think we can we you know, I think you

1459
01:27:58,240 --> 01:28:03,640
Speaker 4: know having Saquon locked in, and I think that benefits

1460
01:28:03,720 --> 01:28:04,519
Speaker 4: us in the long run.

1461
01:28:04,560 --> 01:28:10,120
Speaker 2: What do you think, Well, I think more often than not,

1462
01:28:11,520 --> 01:28:17,439
Speaker 2: when NFL teams have a QB like that, history says

1463
01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:23,799
Speaker 2: they bite the bullet. If we're being real, the Raiders

1464
01:28:23,840 --> 01:28:27,360
Speaker 2: have known for seven years that they were not going

1465
01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:29,040
Speaker 2: to win the Super Bowl at the start of the year.

1466
01:28:29,640 --> 01:28:36,000
Speaker 2: I know Raider fans disagree. If we're being real, Cowboy

1467
01:28:36,080 --> 01:28:40,160
Speaker 2: fans should know you're probably not going to win a

1468
01:28:40,200 --> 01:28:45,200
Speaker 2: super Bowl with Dak Prescott as your quarterback. That's correct,

1469
01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:51,880
Speaker 2: if we're being real. The Minnesota Vikings know you're not

1470
01:28:51,960 --> 01:28:55,680
Speaker 2: winning the super Bowl Kirk Cousins as your quarterback. You

1471
01:28:55,760 --> 01:28:59,120
Speaker 2: can be very good with all of these players, but

1472
01:28:59,160 --> 01:29:02,000
Speaker 2: you're not winn the super Bow unless something real funky

1473
01:29:02,040 --> 01:29:04,920
Speaker 2: now happens. Because we went over the list and it

1474
01:29:04,960 --> 01:29:07,640
Speaker 2: was just like Brady and then Mahomes, and then Mahomes

1475
01:29:07,680 --> 01:29:11,599
Speaker 2: and then Brady Brady and then Brady alone. Peyton Manning

1476
01:29:12,720 --> 01:29:16,360
Speaker 2: threw in a Nick Foles when he beat Brady, right

1477
01:29:16,479 --> 01:29:20,880
Speaker 2: like a weird thing can happen, But it's pretty unlikely.

1478
01:29:21,560 --> 01:29:24,639
Speaker 2: The Arizona Cardinals are not going to win the super

1479
01:29:24,680 --> 01:29:30,560
Speaker 2: Bowl with Kyler Murray as their quarterback. But what decision

1480
01:29:30,680 --> 01:29:34,519
Speaker 2: did all four of those teams make? They paid him,

1481
01:29:35,200 --> 01:29:37,479
Speaker 2: they broke them off because they because you have to

1482
01:29:37,520 --> 01:29:39,880
Speaker 2: make because you have to make a choice. And the

1483
01:29:40,000 --> 01:29:47,520
Speaker 2: choice is we can either hold out for that dude,

1484
01:29:47,640 --> 01:29:49,960
Speaker 2: and even if we do, we're probably not going to

1485
01:29:50,000 --> 01:29:52,280
Speaker 2: get him, because a does that guy even exist? And

1486
01:29:52,320 --> 01:29:54,360
Speaker 2: if he does, can we get our hands on him?

1487
01:29:55,200 --> 01:30:00,280
Speaker 2: Or we can at least stay relevant, which is what

1488
01:30:00,640 --> 01:30:04,519
Speaker 2: I think makes these teams do this. It's like, if

1489
01:30:04,520 --> 01:30:09,040
Speaker 2: we've got Dak and we've got Kirk, we could go

1490
01:30:09,160 --> 01:30:14,840
Speaker 2: twelve and five. We might go nine to eight, but

1491
01:30:15,439 --> 01:30:19,600
Speaker 2: we've probably got like a sixty chance to make the playoffs.

1492
01:30:20,520 --> 01:30:22,920
Speaker 2: We'll make some money, will be relevant, will be a

1493
01:30:22,960 --> 01:30:27,160
Speaker 2: part of this show, and if something totally whack a

1494
01:30:27,200 --> 01:30:30,559
Speaker 2: doodle happens, maybe the sun is going to shine on

1495
01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:34,400
Speaker 2: our butt. And I think that that's what they choose

1496
01:30:35,080 --> 01:30:42,760
Speaker 2: rather than right, Let's let's go all in on rebooting

1497
01:30:42,760 --> 01:30:46,160
Speaker 2: at the quarterback position every four years until we get

1498
01:30:46,200 --> 01:30:48,080
Speaker 2: it right, which is what the Bears have been doing

1499
01:30:48,120 --> 01:30:52,040
Speaker 2: since you and I were born. It's a good point.

1500
01:30:53,320 --> 01:30:53,960
Speaker 2: It's a good point.

1501
01:30:54,000 --> 01:30:54,639
Speaker 5: So I get it.

1502
01:30:55,040 --> 01:30:57,280
Speaker 2: I get that's my answer. I don't think. I don't

1503
01:30:57,280 --> 01:30:59,840
Speaker 2: want to pay forty six million dollars in twenty twenty

1504
01:30:59,840 --> 01:31:03,720
Speaker 2: six for Daniel Jones. I think that's ludicrous, but I

1505
01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:04,519
Speaker 2: get why they did it.

1506
01:31:09,240 --> 01:31:14,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would. I would steer to signing our best player.

1507
01:31:14,600 --> 01:31:18,960
Speaker 4: That's just me, though. No, I you're not crazy, Like

1508
01:31:19,080 --> 01:31:22,639
Speaker 4: I'm like, what's the point if you're If you don't

1509
01:31:22,720 --> 01:31:26,760
Speaker 4: want to pay your best player and one of the

1510
01:31:26,800 --> 01:31:30,720
Speaker 4: top guys in the entire league. Then you just out

1511
01:31:30,720 --> 01:31:37,320
Speaker 4: here wasting time, wasting what do you think they're gonna

1512
01:31:37,320 --> 01:31:43,080
Speaker 4: do this? This conversation is not over yet. They did

1513
01:31:43,120 --> 01:31:47,719
Speaker 4: not come to a deal. Right, he has not signed

1514
01:31:47,720 --> 01:31:53,559
Speaker 4: this franchise tender. How do you think this is gonna

1515
01:31:53,560 --> 01:31:57,599
Speaker 4: play out long and hard? Hm?

1516
01:31:57,680 --> 01:31:59,759
Speaker 2: Hm? You think he's skipping a season?

1517
01:32:01,280 --> 01:32:06,920
Speaker 4: I think he'll miss eight games. I think he'll miss

1518
01:32:06,960 --> 01:32:15,040
Speaker 4: eight games. Man, I'm trying to I think it will

1519
01:32:15,120 --> 01:32:15,519
Speaker 4: how much?

1520
01:32:15,800 --> 01:32:20,439
Speaker 2: Yeah? And I look, Saquan was an early pick, so yeah,

1521
01:32:20,760 --> 01:32:25,320
Speaker 2: the second time draft. Yeah. Sometimes I look at NFL players, right,

1522
01:32:25,760 --> 01:32:28,360
Speaker 2: we know their financial structure is mats.

1523
01:32:28,720 --> 01:32:30,559
Speaker 3: But he's made some money. He's made He's.

1524
01:32:30,400 --> 01:32:33,400
Speaker 2: Made almost forty he's made almost forty million dollars, endorsements,

1525
01:32:33,439 --> 01:32:36,920
Speaker 2: all of the enemies. Yes, so more, I'm just on field.

1526
01:32:36,960 --> 01:32:40,320
Speaker 2: He's at thirty eight point six yep. So yes, this

1527
01:32:40,400 --> 01:32:48,080
Speaker 2: is a fifty million dollar player already. But sure he

1528
01:32:48,160 --> 01:32:53,120
Speaker 2: also knows he's got to maximize now because he's twenty

1529
01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:57,760
Speaker 2: six and so the next time he's up for a contract. Yeah,

1530
01:32:57,800 --> 01:33:01,559
Speaker 2: you can't hip up these three years. Oh right, If you.

1531
01:33:01,600 --> 01:33:04,240
Speaker 4: Sit out eight games, that's let's wear and tear. That

1532
01:33:04,360 --> 01:33:09,600
Speaker 4: benefits you, Yeah, that benefits you. Well, I have to

1533
01:33:09,600 --> 01:33:11,880
Speaker 4: start thinking about it like that.

1534
01:33:11,880 --> 01:33:14,840
Speaker 2: That's where it gets to a spot where I can

1535
01:33:15,040 --> 01:33:18,280
Speaker 2: understand the negotiating. If I just think about this as

1536
01:33:18,280 --> 01:33:22,040
Speaker 2: a business, I understand what Saquon's doing. I understand what

1537
01:33:22,080 --> 01:33:29,720
Speaker 2: the Giants are doing. However, who loses is everybody? All

1538
01:33:29,880 --> 01:33:34,679
Speaker 2: the Giants lose, Saquon loses, the fans lose, the NFL loses.

1539
01:33:34,760 --> 01:33:39,200
Speaker 2: And that's It's those particular situations where maybe there could

1540
01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:42,599
Speaker 2: be some sort of a conversation to happen somewhere along

1541
01:33:42,640 --> 01:33:46,719
Speaker 2: the line over how how this all works.

1542
01:33:48,479 --> 01:33:51,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, because nobody wants to see that without those guys

1543
01:33:52,760 --> 01:33:53,640
Speaker 4: in the backfield.

1544
01:33:53,960 --> 01:33:55,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, you want your stars on the field.

1545
01:33:57,880 --> 01:34:01,080
Speaker 4: You want to tune in and watch a team at

1546
01:34:01,160 --> 01:34:03,439
Speaker 4: its best or as close to its best as it

1547
01:34:03,479 --> 01:34:09,600
Speaker 4: can get.

1548
01:34:11,439 --> 01:34:14,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt, man. And you know, now the whole

1549
01:34:14,920 --> 01:34:17,519
Speaker 2: story around Saquon for the next month is going to be,

1550
01:34:17,720 --> 01:34:19,920
Speaker 2: you know, how far does he fall in your fantasy

1551
01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:22,800
Speaker 2: draft and where can you try to try to nab him,

1552
01:34:22,880 --> 01:34:25,479
Speaker 2: you know, for for some sort of a cheap price,

1553
01:34:25,960 --> 01:34:29,639
Speaker 2: And and that's that's not the conversation. And think about

1554
01:34:29,640 --> 01:34:32,960
Speaker 2: how many running backs where that's the case Jacobs and

1555
01:34:33,080 --> 01:34:37,599
Speaker 2: Dalvin and on down the list. All right, so there's

1612
01:38:43,400 --> 01:38:48,360
Speaker 2: about who's young and who's up and coming for the

1613
01:38:48,520 --> 01:38:57,960
Speaker 2: U s w n T because I get excited for

1614
01:38:58,040 --> 01:39:01,240
Speaker 2: the for the for the Women's World Cup, because this

1615
01:39:01,280 --> 01:39:04,320
Speaker 2: is where America's actually got a chance to win. Well

1616
01:39:04,400 --> 01:39:05,040
Speaker 2: we do win.

1617
01:39:05,200 --> 01:39:08,400
Speaker 3: We're okay, right, champions going for.

1618
01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:10,639
Speaker 2: Four, you know what I mean, the Women's World Cup,

1619
01:39:10,880 --> 01:39:14,639
Speaker 2: Like we can win this thing, and this is where

1620
01:39:14,640 --> 01:39:17,200
Speaker 2: that chance I believe that we will win actually works.

1621
01:39:19,400 --> 01:39:22,800
Speaker 2: But I'm just gonna call it what it was against

1622
01:39:22,880 --> 01:39:26,439
Speaker 2: Vietnam that was uninspired, like nothing that was you know,

1623
01:39:26,800 --> 01:39:28,760
Speaker 2: come on, man, you can tell me that you get

1624
01:39:28,840 --> 01:39:32,559
Speaker 2: up for it. I know, But I guess my question

1625
01:39:32,720 --> 01:39:36,280
Speaker 2: is this, Why are the lead players for this team

1626
01:39:36,560 --> 01:39:38,640
Speaker 2: the same players that it feels like have been the

1627
01:39:38,720 --> 01:39:41,920
Speaker 2: lead players for the last eight World Cups? You know

1628
01:39:41,960 --> 01:39:45,439
Speaker 2: what I mean? So listen, I don't follow it those

1629
01:39:45,800 --> 01:39:48,120
Speaker 2: to the same level you do. I'm gonna admit that

1630
01:39:48,240 --> 01:39:51,840
Speaker 2: right now. Tell me what I don't know? Why am

1631
01:39:51,880 --> 01:39:55,360
Speaker 2: I still hearing about Alex Morgan and Megan Rappino.

1632
01:39:55,600 --> 01:39:57,760
Speaker 3: Because their brands?

1633
01:39:58,520 --> 01:39:58,760
Speaker 2: Right?

1634
01:39:58,800 --> 01:40:02,639
Speaker 5: I understand that, But I mean, it's making forty?

1635
01:40:04,640 --> 01:40:05,320
Speaker 2: Is she forty?

1636
01:40:05,439 --> 01:40:06,639
Speaker 3: First of all? Slow down?

1637
01:40:06,800 --> 01:40:07,160
Speaker 2: Okay?

1638
01:40:07,720 --> 01:40:09,559
Speaker 3: Is she slow down?

1639
01:40:10,560 --> 01:40:12,680
Speaker 2: Is she? I'm asking you, I don't know.

1640
01:40:13,040 --> 01:40:15,960
Speaker 4: I don't know her eight eight, she's thirty eight. I'm

1641
01:40:15,960 --> 01:40:17,600
Speaker 4: not gonna put the woman's age out there like that.

1642
01:40:17,680 --> 01:40:21,160
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna be that guy. Okay, what are you doing?

1643
01:40:21,840 --> 01:40:25,680
Speaker 2: She's all right, she does. It's out there. Alex is

1644
01:40:25,720 --> 01:40:32,439
Speaker 2: thirty four. You know, they're they're all time grades but

1645
01:40:32,479 --> 01:40:35,920
Speaker 2: this is soccer. This is soccer. Man, Like, who's twenty

1646
01:40:35,960 --> 01:40:39,160
Speaker 2: two and flying around the field. That's what I want

1647
01:40:39,160 --> 01:40:39,400
Speaker 2: to know.

1648
01:40:41,240 --> 01:40:47,919
Speaker 4: Sophia Smith. Okay, raw business, raw business.

1649
01:40:48,720 --> 01:40:50,320
Speaker 2: They got what it needs, but they.

1650
01:40:50,200 --> 01:40:52,599
Speaker 3: Need oh yeah yeah yeah you sure?

1651
01:40:53,120 --> 01:40:59,120
Speaker 4: Yeah seriously three and nothing is uninspired. Man, they should

1652
01:40:59,160 --> 01:41:06,320
Speaker 4: have won that by ten. Trinity Rodman. I mean, the

1653
01:41:06,439 --> 01:41:11,520
Speaker 4: thing you realize when you watch soccer is it's always

1654
01:41:13,280 --> 01:41:18,280
Speaker 4: a combination of old and young. Are older, are veteran,

1655
01:41:18,479 --> 01:41:25,360
Speaker 4: seasoned and young? Right, I think back when Alex Morgan

1656
01:41:25,640 --> 01:41:28,840
Speaker 4: was that young that sees that you know, that up

1657
01:41:28,880 --> 01:41:31,800
Speaker 4: and coming one, right, and you had the Hope Solos

1658
01:41:31,880 --> 01:41:34,280
Speaker 4: out there, and you're like so all of the Brandy

1659
01:41:34,360 --> 01:41:43,320
Speaker 4: chastains and you know, like American women's soccer is light

1660
01:41:43,439 --> 01:41:49,080
Speaker 4: years ahead of the men of course, and shout out

1661
01:41:49,120 --> 01:41:53,120
Speaker 4: to them for winning equal pay and because it's it's true,

1662
01:41:54,360 --> 01:41:56,400
Speaker 4: more people watch them than they do the men's team

1663
01:41:57,720 --> 01:42:01,439
Speaker 4: because we get to watch them younger. Yes, they have

1664
01:42:01,520 --> 01:42:05,200
Speaker 4: more matches, and we get to watch them win. I mean,

1665
01:42:05,200 --> 01:42:07,839
Speaker 4: it's a it's a real thing. Like all our best

1666
01:42:07,840 --> 01:42:11,640
Speaker 4: male athletes are playing in the NFL, in the NBA,

1667
01:42:13,280 --> 01:42:16,519
Speaker 4: that's where they are. I said all the time, you

1668
01:42:16,600 --> 01:42:19,599
Speaker 4: put Lebron James on a pitch. If Lebron James grew

1669
01:42:19,680 --> 01:42:22,719
Speaker 4: up in the country with there was soccer is the sport.

1670
01:42:23,080 --> 01:42:27,400
Speaker 4: If you put that six ' nine freight train who

1671
01:42:27,479 --> 01:42:33,880
Speaker 4: probably when he was a young man, ran H four

1672
01:42:34,000 --> 01:42:42,760
Speaker 4: four at six ' nine, then you'd have him. Bape's

1673
01:42:42,840 --> 01:42:43,360
Speaker 4: what it be.

1674
01:42:44,479 --> 01:42:45,240
Speaker 3: Uh huh.

1675
01:42:45,560 --> 01:42:47,679
Speaker 4: So I just think, think of all our best athletes,

1676
01:42:47,680 --> 01:42:50,759
Speaker 4: the Kobe Kobe Bryant grew up playing soccer, tremendous soccer player.

1677
01:42:51,000 --> 01:42:53,719
Speaker 4: Think if he just took that energy and that mama

1678
01:42:53,800 --> 01:42:57,360
Speaker 4: mentality onto the pitch and not the court. Come on,

1679
01:42:58,160 --> 01:43:02,280
Speaker 4: but that's not what we're that's right. We allocate our

1680
01:43:02,360 --> 01:43:07,160
Speaker 4: best men's athletes to basketball football.

1681
01:43:07,560 --> 01:43:10,439
Speaker 2: That is what it is. Yeah, I get it. I

1682
01:43:10,479 --> 01:43:17,360
Speaker 2: get it. And we don't care. We don't care as much.

1683
01:43:17,880 --> 01:43:18,280
Speaker 3: We don't.

1684
01:43:18,800 --> 01:43:19,240
Speaker 2: We don't.

1685
01:43:19,280 --> 01:43:20,280
Speaker 3: We don't don't, we don't.

1686
01:43:20,439 --> 01:43:22,920
Speaker 2: And then that's not that's not some shot at soccer.

1687
01:43:23,000 --> 01:43:26,599
Speaker 2: That's just like it's life or death in many countries.

1688
01:43:27,439 --> 01:43:32,080
Speaker 2: It is not here, that's all. It's not that here, right, Yeah,

1689
01:43:32,240 --> 01:43:39,920
Speaker 2: exactly exactly, life or death. That describes our interactions with

1690
01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:41,800
Speaker 2: Steve de Seger. I don't know that I could live

1691
01:43:41,840 --> 01:43:45,920
Speaker 2: without them, and so, uh, we should do one more,

1692
01:43:45,920 --> 01:43:49,960
Speaker 2: don't you think I think we should. Let's let's let's

1693
01:43:49,960 --> 01:43:53,400
Speaker 2: get Steve de Seger in here for for what is

1694
01:43:53,439 --> 01:43:54,680
Speaker 2: going to be a true moment.

1695
01:43:58,160 --> 01:43:59,200
Speaker 7: Or there you go.

1696
01:43:59,520 --> 01:44:02,919
Speaker 5: Hold look, there you are, Hey Way, and there's your music.

1697
01:44:03,120 --> 01:44:06,840
Speaker 2: Come on now, guys, they with that, and then I'm like,

1698
01:44:08,200 --> 01:44:09,160
Speaker 2: this isn't going well.

1699
01:44:09,280 --> 01:44:13,280
Speaker 7: It's a leading union show and expecting the will. Uh

1700
01:44:13,560 --> 01:44:16,160
Speaker 7: just to tell you how things did in the TV

1701
01:44:16,320 --> 01:44:19,519
Speaker 7: ratings with the US opener, and I agree three, not

1702
01:44:19,640 --> 01:44:21,920
Speaker 7: think it could have been easily four or five or more,

1703
01:44:22,040 --> 01:44:25,520
Speaker 7: but more on that in the moment. But just by comparison,

1704
01:44:25,560 --> 01:44:28,400
Speaker 7: the NBA playoffs did well this past year. The TV

1705
01:44:28,520 --> 01:44:32,519
Speaker 7: ratings first two rounds in the national TV Games five

1706
01:44:32,640 --> 01:44:38,120
Speaker 7: point twenty six million, US soccer five excuse me, five

1707
01:44:38,160 --> 01:44:41,759
Speaker 7: point two three million soccer five point two six million

1708
01:44:41,880 --> 01:44:45,720
Speaker 7: on Friday night US Vietnam is therefore one of the

1709
01:44:45,760 --> 01:44:49,640
Speaker 7: top ten audiences all time for Women's World Cup. And

1710
01:44:49,680 --> 01:44:51,920
Speaker 7: this was not a semi or a final. This was

1711
01:44:52,040 --> 01:44:57,000
Speaker 7: a first round group play match. And by the way,

1712
01:44:57,080 --> 01:44:59,439
Speaker 7: Bay Area was one of the top markets since they

1713
01:44:59,520 --> 01:45:03,280
Speaker 7: certainly there's a Bay Area flavor to this US team.

1714
01:45:03,680 --> 01:45:07,200
Speaker 7: The Americans did win only three nothing against Vietnam, and

1715
01:45:07,280 --> 01:45:09,600
Speaker 7: that opener there were and they outshot him twenty.

1716
01:45:09,360 --> 01:45:11,559
Speaker 2: Eight nothing just for the rent, Yeah, they did.

1717
01:45:11,680 --> 01:45:13,479
Speaker 7: It was a little odd to see an opponent who

1718
01:45:13,560 --> 01:45:16,280
Speaker 7: really didn't have a priority of you know, scoring.

1719
01:45:16,080 --> 01:45:19,760
Speaker 2: The first half of the game. They never even crossed midfield.

1720
01:45:20,000 --> 01:45:23,559
Speaker 7: That's like, okay, it's like watching a Jets game.

1721
01:45:24,320 --> 01:45:24,759
Speaker 3: Anyway.

1722
01:45:24,880 --> 01:45:26,280
Speaker 2: Earlier in the day in the.

1723
01:45:26,200 --> 01:45:30,719
Speaker 7: World Cup, you had Spain even more so, completely dominate

1724
01:45:30,800 --> 01:45:34,920
Speaker 7: Costa Rica in its opener. They outshot him forty six

1725
01:45:35,000 --> 01:45:37,679
Speaker 7: to one and that was only a three to nothing

1726
01:45:37,760 --> 01:45:43,040
Speaker 7: final for Spain. Meanwhile, at the Women's World Cup FS one,

Speaker 7: our time, Jamaica tied number five ranked France zero zero,

1731
01:45:57,960 --> 01:46:00,640
Speaker 7: even though France had seventy two percent of the possession.

1732
01:46:00,920 --> 01:46:03,519
Speaker 7: Number three Sweden needed a goal in the ninetieth minute

1733

1735
01:46:09,960 --> 01:46:12,120

Speaker 7: Cup before. The Americans next game is Wednesday night against

1737

Speaker 7: Netherlands on Fox TV. This was the World Cup final

1738
01:46:19,360 --> 01:46:22,120
Speaker 7: four years ago, and in fact these two played in

1739
01:46:22,160 --> 01:46:25,200
Speaker 7: the Olympics two years ago in Tokyo in a quarterfinal

1740
01:46:25,240 --> 01:46:27,559

1772
01:48:07,479 --> 01:48:12,200
Speaker 7: The Dodgers do not have any pitching. Emmett Shean was

1773
01:48:12,200 --> 01:48:15,160

1776

Speaker 7: Ten inning wins for Philadelphia and Miami Minnesota one in twelve.

1777
01:48:24,680 --> 01:48:29,120

1778
01:48:29,240 --> 01:48:30,519
Speaker 2: the Dodgers don't have any.

1779
01:48:30,360 --> 01:48:32,519
Speaker 5: Pitching, neither does anybody else.

1780
01:48:32,840 --> 01:48:35,599
Speaker 2: I don't know if you've noticed this, and I've had

1781
01:48:35,720 --> 01:48:40,320
Speaker 2: JMS tell me this year, everybody's looking for the same thing,

1782
01:48:40,920 --> 01:48:44,479
Speaker 2: which makes it impossible to get You've got no All

1783
01:48:44,520 --> 01:48:47,000
Speaker 2: the teams think they're still in it, and they're all

1784
01:48:47,000 --> 01:48:49,679
Speaker 2: looking for the exact same thing. Killer's more starting pitching.

1785
01:48:50,200 --> 01:48:53,160
Speaker 2: Good luck, and if you do get one, you're gonna

1786
01:48:53,240 --> 01:48:54,360
Speaker 2: have to pay through the notes.

1787
01:48:54,439 --> 01:48:57,120
Speaker 7: Real teams like the Bruthes do have some pitching, but

1788
01:48:57,160 --> 01:48:59,120
Speaker 7: you're right, the dead well is in their leeway.

1789
01:49:00,439 --> 01:49:02,720
Speaker 2: The Braves do, and I would imagine the Orioles and

1790
01:49:02,800 --> 01:49:05,720
Speaker 2: Rays due though I could not name any of them,

1791
01:49:05,760 --> 01:49:07,680
Speaker 2: but they win all of their baseball games, so they

1792
01:49:07,760 --> 01:49:11,880
Speaker 2: must have somebody good correct, Oh goodness, gracious? All right?

1809
01:50:03,280 --> 01:50:08,960
Speaker 2: I like it's hard though. Baseball Hall of Fame Induction day.

1810
01:50:10,080 --> 01:50:14,200
Speaker 2: I've realized the last few when it comes around and

1811
01:50:14,240 --> 01:50:17,320
Speaker 2: people will go did you watch, And I'm like no,

1812
01:50:18,520 --> 01:50:22,640
Speaker 2: And there's like a little bite to my no and

1813
01:50:22,680 --> 01:50:27,880
Speaker 2: it's just because I don't respect the process anymore. There's

1814
01:50:27,920 --> 01:50:30,639
Speaker 2: too many what ifs, there's too many people holding things

1815
01:50:30,680 --> 01:50:36,000
Speaker 2: against too many different people. I've never been. I'd still

1816
01:50:36,040 --> 01:50:41,519
Speaker 2: love to go someday, but it's a museum that is

1817
01:50:42,040 --> 01:50:47,360
Speaker 2: tainted and misguided in my opinion, and therefore it takes

1818
01:50:47,439 --> 01:50:51,080
Speaker 2: away from all of the people who do end up there.

1819
01:50:53,800 --> 01:50:58,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just it doesn't have the same pop as

1820
01:50:58,520 --> 01:51:05,120
Speaker 4: a NFL or the NBA all the fame. I didn't

1821
01:51:05,120 --> 01:51:12,639
Speaker 4: even know it was happening today. So yeah, there's that. Yep,

1822
01:51:13,280 --> 01:51:19,080
Speaker 4: there's that. It's such a cloud hanging over it. It's tough.

1823
01:51:19,760 --> 01:51:23,479
Speaker 2: Well, the feel to me. The word that pops to mind,

1824
01:51:23,520 --> 01:51:25,599
Speaker 2: and it's never it's a word that, believe me, if

1825
01:51:25,640 --> 01:51:28,160
Speaker 2: I use it about another human being or an event.

1826
01:51:28,479 --> 01:51:30,720
Speaker 2: This is not a good thing. But it's exclusionary, and

1827
01:51:30,760 --> 01:51:33,920
Speaker 2: I know that people want the Hall of Fame to

1828
01:51:34,000 --> 01:51:36,880
Speaker 2: be exclusionary in a way. You can't just let everybody in.

1829
01:51:36,960 --> 01:51:39,880
Speaker 2: I understand that, but you do need to let the

1830
01:51:39,920 --> 01:51:43,400
Speaker 2: people in who deserve to be in, or else you're

1831
01:51:43,439 --> 01:51:47,599
Speaker 2: playing some sort of political game. You can look at

1832
01:51:47,600 --> 01:51:51,160
Speaker 2: this one of two ways. You can either point to

1833
01:51:51,200 --> 01:51:55,120
Speaker 2: the fact that you really never caught just about anybody

1834
01:51:55,560 --> 01:52:01,840
Speaker 2: red handed with anything. And then secondarily, there's literally zero

1835
01:52:02,040 --> 01:52:05,360
Speaker 2: chance that some of the people who have been inducted

1836
01:52:05,760 --> 01:52:09,639
Speaker 2: in the last ten years were not also juicing. There's

1837
01:52:10,080 --> 01:52:17,000
Speaker 2: zero chance of that. So why from the long standing

1838
01:52:17,160 --> 01:52:20,680
Speaker 2: Rose debate to the current one surrounding the Bonds and

1839
01:52:20,760 --> 01:52:24,439
Speaker 2: Clemens of the world. I just I don't know what

1840
01:52:24,520 --> 01:52:27,000
Speaker 2: the stuffy Hall of Fame thinks it's achieving by keeping

1841
01:52:27,040 --> 01:52:28,800
Speaker 2: them out. And I know it's the voters, not so

1842
01:52:28,920 --> 01:52:32,040
Speaker 2: much the Hall itself, but they're not achieving what they

1843
01:52:32,040 --> 01:52:32,799
Speaker 2: think they're achieving.

1844
01:52:34,600 --> 01:52:35,200
Speaker 3: No, they're not.

1845
01:52:36,439 --> 01:52:42,599
Speaker 4: And it look, baseball has a bunch of unwritten rules.

1846
01:52:42,760 --> 01:52:46,320
Speaker 4: They have a bunch of you know, this is how

1847
01:52:46,360 --> 01:52:50,479
Speaker 4: it's supposed to be, and it kind of sucks the

1848
01:52:50,560 --> 01:52:54,960
Speaker 4: fun and the energy out of the room. Yeah, even

1849
01:52:55,120 --> 01:52:58,479
Speaker 4: for something as pristine as the Hall of Fame induction.

1850
01:53:00,520 --> 01:53:05,080
Speaker 4: So they have a lot of things that they need

1851
01:53:05,120 --> 01:53:09,479
Speaker 4: to really work on to to put some energy around it. Man,

1852
01:53:09,520 --> 01:53:12,840
Speaker 4: it should be a big deal. It should be tremendous,

1853

1878
01:54:48,280 --> 01:54:51,040
Speaker 2: love the NBA. You might love the NBA even more

1879
01:54:51,080 --> 01:54:53,160
Speaker 2: than you love the NFL, but I'll love it this

1880
01:54:53,200 --> 01:54:56,839
Speaker 2: summer that was one of the most boring NBA summers

1881
01:54:56,880 --> 01:55:01,160
Speaker 2: I can remember. And maybe it's not over, and maybe

1882
01:55:01,160 --> 01:55:06,000
Speaker 2: it's not fair, but I'm blaming Damon Lillard and James Harden.

1883
01:55:06,400 --> 01:55:09,560
Speaker 2: I'm blaming them both because everything gets all held up

1884
01:55:10,120 --> 01:55:14,200
Speaker 2: when the stars ask for a trade. Lillard is a

1885
01:55:14,240 --> 01:55:17,800
Speaker 2: bigger deal right now. Harden is more of an offender

1886
01:55:18,200 --> 01:55:21,680
Speaker 2: because he asks for a trade every six months. It's

1887
01:55:21,760 --> 01:55:24,720
Speaker 2: like it's like his thing. We need to be traded

1888
01:55:24,760 --> 01:55:28,560
Speaker 2: in July or August, and then wherever we get we're

1889
01:55:28,560 --> 01:55:30,520
Speaker 2: not going to like that place. So we got to

1890
01:55:30,560 --> 01:55:33,880
Speaker 2: get traded again in February and then wait until July

1891
01:55:34,120 --> 01:55:36,840
Speaker 2: so that we can ask to be traded again. Like,

1892
01:55:36,960 --> 01:55:41,040
Speaker 2: let's just spotlight James Harden for a second. When when

1893
01:55:41,080 --> 01:55:44,920
Speaker 2: do the Kyries and the Hardens of the world realize

1894
01:55:45,040 --> 01:55:49,520
Speaker 2: it's not them, it's not the team, it's you.

1895
01:55:50,880 --> 01:55:53,640
Speaker 5: How many different places do you need to be uncomfortable

1896
01:55:55,200 --> 01:55:56,040
Speaker 5: before you go?

1897
01:55:56,280 --> 01:56:03,240
Speaker 2: Huh, common denominator, what's the common denominator me, I'm the denominator.

1898
01:56:05,280 --> 01:56:09,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, that would be. I mean, therapists get paid a

1899
01:56:09,240 --> 01:56:12,880
Speaker 4: lot of money to answer that question, right, and that's

1900
01:56:13,600 --> 01:56:20,120
Speaker 4: you know, self reflection. It's very difficult when you are

1901
01:56:21,400 --> 01:56:26,920
Speaker 4: the best in the world at something and you feel

1902
01:56:27,000 --> 01:56:32,280
Speaker 4: that everything revolves around you, and we get a lot

1903
01:56:32,280 --> 01:56:39,800
Speaker 4: of that. In terms of player movement. Now is a

1904
01:56:40,160 --> 01:56:42,640
Speaker 4: I'm anna sign an extension. I don't want to be here,

1905
01:56:43,160 --> 01:56:46,200
Speaker 4: send me somewhere else. Like that's what the narrative is,

1906
01:56:46,240 --> 01:56:49,400
Speaker 4: so anybody can go anywhere at any time. It's no

1907
01:56:49,480 --> 01:56:52,600
Speaker 4: longer you sign you have to be locked in. Teams

1908
01:56:52,600 --> 01:56:54,360
Speaker 4: are willing to I would be like, yoh man, you

1909
01:56:54,480 --> 01:57:01,600
Speaker 4: playing bro. Sorry, it is what it is. At some

1910
01:57:01,720 --> 01:57:07,120
Speaker 4: point it just becomes, you know, more than a distraction

1911
01:57:09,840 --> 01:57:10,520
Speaker 4: becomes silly.

1912
01:57:10,640 --> 01:57:14,000
Speaker 2: I mean, I would play with that idea. If I

1913
01:57:14,040 --> 01:57:16,800
Speaker 2: were the Portland Blazers, I would pay with that. I

1914
01:57:16,840 --> 01:57:18,680
Speaker 2: would play with that idea if I were the Portland

1915
01:57:18,680 --> 01:57:22,000
Speaker 2: Blazers right now. I've said this to you already the

1916
01:57:22,080 --> 01:57:26,320
Speaker 2: last few weeks. I'm not doing it unless it's good

1917
01:57:26,360 --> 01:57:32,120
Speaker 2: for us. You know, the hardened situation is tough man,

1918
01:57:32,240 --> 01:57:38,160
Speaker 2: because you know, he starts his career with Oklahoma City.

1919
01:57:39,400 --> 01:57:45,440
Speaker 2: At the same time, I understand, I understand why he

1920
01:57:45,520 --> 01:57:49,000
Speaker 2: leaves that situation. You know, he's kind of running as

1921
01:57:49,000 --> 01:57:52,600
Speaker 2: a six man. He was averaging sixteen point eight a

1922
01:57:52,640 --> 01:57:55,200
Speaker 2: game when he was twenty two in Oklahoma City. The

1923
01:57:55,320 --> 01:57:58,640
Speaker 2: very next year he becomes a perennial All Star and

1924
01:57:58,720 --> 01:58:01,960
Speaker 2: averages almost ten point it's more per game that equals

1925
01:58:02,080 --> 01:58:05,120
Speaker 2: money for a player. Out of that that I understand.

1926
01:58:05,600 --> 01:58:09,120
Speaker 2: And then you spend about eight years in Houston and

1927
01:58:09,240 --> 01:58:11,160
Speaker 2: come damn close to getting it done.

1928
01:58:11,800 --> 01:58:13,600
Speaker 5: So I get it.

1929
01:58:13,640 --> 01:58:16,920
Speaker 2: And there were three consecutive years of leading the league

1930
01:58:16,960 --> 01:58:20,600
Speaker 2: in scoring. That was all very successful. But from the

1931
01:58:20,680 --> 01:58:25,680
Speaker 2: moment that we got to twenty twenty and it's you know,

1932
01:58:26,160 --> 01:58:29,880
Speaker 2: Houston and then Brooklyn and then now Philly and now

1933
01:58:29,880 --> 01:58:32,880
Speaker 2: we're out again. This is a joke. Now this a

1934
01:58:33,120 --> 01:58:36,280
Speaker 2: I mean, come on, man. And I actually was starting

1935
01:58:36,280 --> 01:58:39,320
Speaker 2: to really almost have a newfound respect for the guy

1936
01:58:39,400 --> 01:58:42,680
Speaker 2: because of the way he approached this year. And he's like,

1937
01:58:42,720 --> 01:58:44,000
Speaker 2: you know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna go lead

1938
01:58:44,040 --> 01:58:49,840
Speaker 2: the NBA and assists. It's like, okay, okay, he's understanding

1939
01:58:49,840 --> 01:58:52,920
Speaker 2: that he's a two and not a one and I

1940
01:58:52,960 --> 01:59:00,560
Speaker 2: was digging it and now he's disgruntled again. It's hard

1941
01:59:00,560 --> 01:59:01,200
Speaker 2: to keep track.

1942
01:59:01,280 --> 01:59:04,840
Speaker 4: Man. If he goes to the Clippers, he's just gonna

1943
01:59:04,840 --> 01:59:08,040
Speaker 4: be it there at the Clippers and oh my.

1944
01:59:08,080 --> 01:59:16,200
Speaker 2: Gosh, Harden and Westbrook back together. M Kate ego want

1945
01:59:16,200 --> 01:59:21,760
Speaker 2: to be traded. He's gonna want to go. I mean,

1946
01:59:21,800 --> 01:59:24,960
Speaker 2: as you, as you a Laker fan, you should actually

1947
01:59:24,960 --> 01:59:29,280
Speaker 2: be rooting for this. I hope you please, yes, right, yes,

1948
01:59:29,640 --> 01:59:35,640
Speaker 2: yeah boy? The Clippers, the Clippers, right, and then Lillard. Man,

1949
01:59:35,760 --> 01:59:41,280
Speaker 2: this is turning into the Bush Gore election. Something, something's good, right,

1950
01:59:41,400 --> 01:59:44,120
Speaker 2: Something's gonna happen. And then like eight months later, you're like,

1951
01:59:44,160 --> 01:59:46,400
Speaker 2: I'm bored, Like I am bored out of my mind.

1952
01:59:46,440 --> 01:59:51,840
Speaker 2: Can we please because somebody just do something? All right? Man?

1953
01:59:52,400 --> 01:59:55,080
Speaker 2: As always great talking to you. We're one week closer. Man,

1954
01:59:55,120 --> 01:59:58,160
Speaker 2: we'll do it again next week. Uh for Ephram Salah,
