1
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Richard Sherman podcast. And I know

2
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 1: this isn't a Dallas Cowboys podcast, but it's an NFL podcast.

3
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: And Jerry has done it again. He shocked the world

4
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 1: with insanity. They have traded Micah Parsons to the Green

5
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: Bay Packers for Kenny Clark in two first round picks

6
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: on top of the Green Bay Packers giving Micah Parsons

7
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 1: a four year, one hundred and eighty eight million dollar

8
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: deal with a one hundred and thirty six million guaranteed.

9
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: Those are the details that Schefter tweeted out, so usually

10
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 1: you can trust those, but it looks like forty seven

11
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 1: million per year for Micah Parsons going to Green Bay,

12
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: which changes the dynamic of that team drastically, throws them

13
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: deep into the contender conversation. One of their huge weaknesses

14
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: was just getting to the passer and being consistent on defense.

15
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: And they got a game wrecker in MICHAEH. Parsons, a

16
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: four time Pro bowler, a three time All Pro, and

17
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: it leaves the Dallas Cowboys with a head scratching pass

18
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 1: rush and they didn't have a great pass rush last year.

19
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 1: Michael Parsons Vissu's four games, still ends up with twelve

20
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: sacks seventy five pressures. And now you say, hey, we

21
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 1: got two first round picks. That doesn't help you. Now

22
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: you have your franchise quarterback. Now the window is just closing, slowly, slowly, slowly,

23
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 1: but surely closing on every team, every team that has

24
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: their quarterback right now, the window is on its way

25
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 1: closed because they get older and older. And there's so

26
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: much that I don't understand about this. But the biggest

27
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: part I don't understand is you paid Dak Prescott sixty

28
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: million dollars when you didn't have to pay sixty million dollars.

29
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: The going rate the top of the market was fifty

30
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: five million at the time, and you said, hey, you

31
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: know what, we care and love Dak so much. We're

32
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 1: gonna go five million per year over above the highest

33
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: paid quarterback in the National Football League because that's how

34
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: much we care about our quarterback. Okay, it's your world.

35
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,239
Speaker 1: You do that, Jerry. You pay c d Lamb top

36
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: of the market. Okay, you do that, Jerry. You pay

37
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: Trey Diggs top of the market at a time, Okay,

38
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:20,920
Speaker 1: you do that, Jerry. But when it comes to the

39
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 1: four time pro bowler, the All pro, no off the

40
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: field problems. You say, ah, we don't want to do that,

41
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: we don't want to pay top of the market. You

42
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 1: could have got when when Nicholas John Bosa got paid.

43
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: They could have gotten Micah Parsons at thirty four maybe

44
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: thirty five million dollars per year, and he would have

45
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: been happy, everybody would have been happy. He would still

46
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: be making that maybe maybe they'd be arguing that he

47
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: should be up for an extension or something now, but

48
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: you'd have him and he would have gotten paid and

49
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: everybody's happy, and you got him for an affordable rate.

50
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 1: You would have saved ten million dollars a year going forward,

51
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: so maybe you would have had a little bit extra

52
00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: for an extension. But you wait until the last year

53
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: of his contract, and the salary cap has jumped I

54
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 1: don't know, thirty forty million dollars since then, so of

55
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 1: course the number four defensive end at the top paid

56
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: nine quarterback is gonna be higher. And you say, you

57
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: go into public and you call him somebody else's name,

58
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 1: you call him Michael Parsons, like, I can't even quantify

59
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 1: the level of disrespect that is, I can't even quantify

60
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: that to not only just be a guy on your team,

61
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: but to be one of your best players. And you

62
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: not even know my name, and that you know my name,

63
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: and that you go into a press conference and call

64
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: me somebody else's name, like, my goodness, I can't and

65
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: I understand Jerry's older, but that's that, Oh, that's an

66
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: unforgivable mistake. You can't do it, and that's what that's

67
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: the disrespect. He took it as and that's what everybody saw.

68
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: Then to double down on it, talk about how the

69
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: games he missed, he missed five games in his career

70
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 1: for your team, five games. He eats the league in

71
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: QB pressures, in speed of pressure. Since he's came in

72
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one, he's made four Pro Bowls. No arrests,

73
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: no off the field issues, nothing, For all intents and purposes,

74
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 1: he's been a consummate professional in every since the imagination.

75
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 1: He's what you look for in a pro productive, the great,

76
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 1: consistent leader, competitive, you got it cool. And you say

77
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 1: we don't want to pay him or you don't want

78
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: to do a deal with his agent, then you make

79
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: up things that that you say his agent said, I

80
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 1: mean all these things were digging a hole deeper and

81
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 1: deeper and deeper for Jerry Jones, and you knew that. Hey,

82
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,160
Speaker 1: it's getting to the point. Micah Parsons is not going

83
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: to play for the Dallas Cowboys. He could play this

84
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: game with you guys as long as he wanted to.

85
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 1: He could have faked the back injury as long as

86
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: he wanted to. I rolled my ankle at going out

87
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,479
Speaker 1: there rehabbing. I can't. I gotta keep go on. And

88
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: you you would have had to pay him. This is

89
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:07,679
Speaker 1: all because of you, Jerry. Now you're already porous defense.

90
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: They they struggled last year. You didn't get a ton

91
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: of pieces to to improve that. Now. Will health help

92
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 1: health and a secondary help that sum, Yeah, no question

93
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 1: about it. You get you get healthier in the secondary.

94
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 1: Hopefully Trey Diggs is healthy. Hopefully you get your guys back.

95
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 1: But to lose arguably a top ten player overall in

96
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: the National Football League on that defense that wasn't ranked

97
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 1: very high and and really without him on the field,

98
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 1: the EPA for your defense is among the worst in

99
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,280
Speaker 1: the league. It's a head scratching move for a team

100
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: that that prides itself on being contenders, an owner that

101
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: prides itself on being in the mix and having a

102
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: winning team and all that, like, this does not get

103
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: you closer to that. This doesn't get you closer to

104
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 1: a super Bowl. This is if this gets the Green

105
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 1: Bay Cockers closer to the Super Bowl, no question about it,

106
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 1: no question about it. They have their holes, they have

107
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: their weaknesses. They're not a perfect team by any stretch

108
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: of imagination. But they are closer today to being contenders

109
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: and contending for a Super Bowl than they were yesterday.

110
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 1: And I understand two first rounders and the forty million dollars.

111
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: They're super young team. You got a young quarterback, you

112
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 1: got young receivers, you got a young defense. You don't

113
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 1: have a lot of high, high number guys. And sure

114
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: they'll have to make some adjustments in the future and

115
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 1: and and rearrange some things, but they're showing their team, Hey,

116
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: we're serious about winning. We're serious right now, we want

117
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 1: to win right now. We think we got a good

118
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 1: enough team, and we're going to show you guys we're

119
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: serious now and in the future about winning. What message

120
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: is this sending to the Dallas Cowboys. Micah was beloved

121
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 1: in that locker room bias teammates by your best guys

122
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 1: by Dak Prescott, by by CD Lamb, by Trey Diggs.

123
00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: So you're sending away one of your most impactful players,

124
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: your most beloved players. Fans loved him. The only thing

125
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: that could could remedy this for Jerry Jones, his winning

126
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: and I nothing about what has happened, says Oh, this

127
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 1: team is gonna be primed to make a run to

128
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl this year. If they do, color me surprised.

129
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: Color me surprised. I don't know football as much as

130
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: I think I do. I think they have enough offensively

131
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: to compete with anybody. I think George Pickens is a

132
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: great addition. I think that dolphensive line. Obviously they lose guiding,

133
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: but I think they're talented enough to make a run.

134
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 1: But defensively they have a lot of question marks. They

135
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: did not play well last year with or without Michael Parsons,

136
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 1: but going into the season without him just did not

137
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: seem like a I mean any stretch of imagination anybody

138
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: would have fathomed they would be going in without Michael

139
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: Parsons to start Week one, and they're gonna play the

140
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers so he's gonna have his revenge game

141
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: very early on. I expect him to have to create

142
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:03,119
Speaker 1: chaos for the Dallas Boys and have another great Pro Bowl,

143
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 1: All Pro season. So, long story short, I don't get it.

144
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: I do not understand Jerry Jones or the lodge behind this.

145
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 1: Everybody understands first round draft picks are what they were

146
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: are you've drafted well cool. I understand that Kenny Clark,

147
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: solid guy, you know, impactful guy. He's gonna he's gonna

148
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: help your defensive line. But he's not gonna help and

149
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: take three three offensive linemen to block him each and

150
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 1: every play. He's not gonna have the effort. He's not

151
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 1: gonna have the production that Michael Parsons does. If he does,

152
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 1: then that'd be a huge addition to the Dallas Cowboys.

153
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 1: But I just don't feel like they won this trade.

154
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 1: I don't feel like they won this as a team

155
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 1: trying to compete for a championship this year, as a

156
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: team who's already paid their franchise quarterbacks sixty million dollars.

157
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 1: They paid him sixty million dollars in Still to this day,

158
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: there's not a quarterback within five million dollars ap wy

159
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 1: of Dak Prescott. Like that's that's how crazy that deal was.

160
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: Like he did it last year and there's still not

161
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 1: a quarterback that burrows five million dollars off Mahomes per

162
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 1: ap y. I think Mahomes might be under what Micah

163
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,959
Speaker 1: Parsons just got. But you know, there's other things going

164
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 1: on in Kansas City. You know, I'm sure he'll he'll

165
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: change some things. They it's a longer term deal, et cetera,

166
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: et cetera. He's trying to make sure they have money

167
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 1: to pay other guys, which is why they keep finding

168
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: themselves in the super Bowl. What five of the last

169
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: six years they find themselves in the super Bowl. But

170
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 1: that's a story for a different day. They're gonna have

171
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: to do something by Jair. They're gonna have this gotta

172
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: be the last draw for Dallas Cowboys fans. And I

173
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 1: know this is the beginning of the season and everybody's

174
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: looking for optimism and reasons to have hope in their team.

175
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: But this just is a head scratching move by every

176
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: stretch of the imagination. I'm trying to find a way

177
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: to spin it where you guys can can feel good

178
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: about it, But you just lost arguably your best player

179
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: for future draft picks that may or may not amount

180
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,679
Speaker 1: to good players, Like, not anybody that's Kenny Clark's is

181
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 1: gonna help you this year. But those two first round

182
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: draft picks are gonna do nothing for you this season,

183
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,959
Speaker 1: And maybe they'll do something for you in the future,

184
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 1: but right you're looking for right now, And if you're

185
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 1: gonna make this trade, you should have made it at

186
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 1: the draft so you could have drafted somebody to at

187
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: least help you this year. Oh my god, this is

188
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 1: just it's just crazy. It's just crazy. But enough about

189
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Let's talk about what this means for the

190
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers. The Cheese Hits. They had a good

191
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 1: defense last year. They had a top five defense in

192
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: total yards per game. They had a top six defense.

193
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: They were number six in scoring per game. They were

194
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: even surprisingly for the first time in fifteen years, they

195
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 1: they averaged under one hundred yards rushing aloud per game.

196
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 1: They were number seventh in the league. So you're talking

197
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 1: about a defense that was trending in the right direction.

198
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 1: Trending in the right direction. They they were fourth and turnovers,

199
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 1: tied for eighth in sacks, and then you add Micah Parsons.

200
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: You talk about a team that talks about, hey, we're

201
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: serious about winning and taking the next step, taking the

202
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: next step and getting ourselves in the mix. You trade

203
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: for a player like this when you have a defense,

204
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,439
Speaker 1: a top five defense already, and you're like, hey, this

205
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 1: will get you over the top. Yes it will. It

206
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: will definitely get you over the top. Last year, Rashwan

207
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 1: Gary was their most dominant player, had a twelve percent

208
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,199
Speaker 1: win rate. Michael Parsons has a twenty percent win rate.

209
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: So you talk about the good only getting better. The

210
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: NFC North is a juggernaut right now. We already know

211
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 1: what the Detroit Lions are. We already know what the

212
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings have done. Obviously they're gonna have to We're

213
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,719
Speaker 1: gonna have to see what the young quarterback can do.

214
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 1: But floor as in that defense, they had a phenomenal

215
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 1: season last year, four team wins. If I'm not mistaken.

216
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears revamped that offensive line, a new head coach.

217
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,079
Speaker 1: They're looking better. Their their defense was it was pretty good.

218
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 1: Obviously they lose ebra flus, but they make the unncessary adjustments.

219
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 1: They have talent. Then Johnson's doing what he can with

220
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams. I mean, it's Caleb Williams, I'm sure, but

221
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 1: it's it's It's gonna be an interesting ride this year.

222
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 1: This this is one of those moves that may divide

223
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 1: a franchise or at least a fan base for the

224
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, and this is something that has Green Bay

225
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 1: Packers fans jumping for joy. A great defense just got better,

226
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 1: A really, really good team just became a great team.

227
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: They were on the fringe of contention. You're like, hey,

228
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: what they need another piece? Like who who was their

229
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: go to guy? Who's there? Like they have it? They

230
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 1: have it. And so if if they can do what

231
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: you expect them to do offensively, and they can run

232
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 1: the ball and Josh Jacobs does what he does, I

233
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 1: think this is going to be a really I mean

234
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: maybe a thirteen win team in Green Bay in a

235
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: very I mean the top three defense, if not the

236
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: best defense in football. But I can't take that away

237
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 1: from the Denver Broncos with everything they did last year

238
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 1: and what they have coming back Defensive Player of the

239
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 1: Year and Patrick Certain But this is a great move

240
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 1: for Green Bay and what a job they are doing

241
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,959
Speaker 1: right now. I can't wait to see how this plays out.

242
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see the game against the Green

243
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 1: Bay Packers versus the Dallas Cowboys. I'm gonna have my

244
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: popcorn ready. I'm gonna be tuned in the rivalries, the

00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: Now we're gonna move on to other news. In the

262
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 1: NFL forty nine, ers pick up Marquez Valdez, Scantling, they

263
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: pick up Brian Robinson. They you know, everybody's practice squads

264
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 1: could field up. There were There weren't a lot of

265
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 1: other notable moves. Amari Cooper goes back to the to

266
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Raiders. Obviously, this Michael Parson's trade is

267
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: the huge, the huge news of the day. But I'm

268
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: sure there are other moves that are gonna be made

269
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 1: regarding draft picks. There's been I Adam Thielen went back

270
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: to the Minnesota Vikings for I think a fourth and

271
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 1: fifth from the Carolina Panthers, and they sent us seventh

272
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: and uh fifth back that way, our seventh and a

273
00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 1: fifth to carra tow back to Minnesota, which is a

274
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: cool move for them. Cool move for the Minnesota Vikings

275
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: and Adam Field and getting the movie his family back

276
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 1: where it all started and getting to make a run

277
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 1: with them. Obviously, they're gonna be missing Addison for the

278
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 1: first three games because of the suspension, so just some

279
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: security there and strengthen their receiving corps I'm sure Kevin

280
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: O'Connell appreciates that. He'll fit right in. Veteran guy. Might

281
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 1: be the oldest receiver in the league. I think he's

282
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: thirty five. So good move for the Minnesota Vikings. The

283
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 1: season's right around the corner. It's gonna be a great year.

284
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 1: I'm excited. First game of the season, the Seattle Seahawks

285
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 1: versus the San Francisco forty nine ers. That's gonna Obviously,

286
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 1: that's a game I am totally invested in. I am

287
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 1: gonna be watching that from start to finish, pre game,

288
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 1: see how these two teams compete, see how it all

289
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 1: shakes out. San Francisco hasn't been very healthy and hasn't

290
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 1: seen their full ones out on the field in a

291
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 1: real game yet. Uh. Seattle hasn't put their total first

292
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 1: team defense out there in a game, but their offensive

293
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: line looks better. That run game and run scheme that

294
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 1: Kubiak is putting out there looks phenomenal. Uh. Obviously, you

295
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 1: know what you're gonna get from JSN and Cooper Cup

296
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 1: looking to get K nine healthy if he's healthy sharp,

297
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,119
Speaker 1: and they looked good in the preseason. Uh. San Francisco

298
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: still has Trent Williams, Christian McCaffrey, brock Party got his money,

299
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 1: he looks great. Uh. Nicholas John Boso be healthy, Fred Warner,

300
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 1: Diamador and Leonor you know, the normal suspects. Uh. And

301
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 1: the big question mark will be that defensive line. If

302
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,639
Speaker 1: if the defensive line can hold up and and be impactful,

303
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 1: and the D tackles can can hold up the young

304
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: D tackles, it's gonna be a great year and a great,

305
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 1: great competitive NFC West with the Rams obviously doing kidding

306
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,479
Speaker 1: DeVante Adams and continuing what they were able to do

307
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:57,159
Speaker 1: last year. They took the Eagles to the wire, uh,

308
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,199
Speaker 1: and had a chance to go to the NFC Championship

309
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: game and that snow game. And as long as they

310
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 1: have Matthew Stafford, I think they got a chance to

311
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 1: be in the mix. So the NFC West will be

312
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,919
Speaker 1: competitive as ever the Arizona Cardinals, you know, leave a

313
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: It's up to be. It's to be seen what Kyler

314
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 1: Murray is gonna do. Is he gonna be able to

315
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 1: stay healthy? If he stays healthy, what are they going

316
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,439
Speaker 1: to be able to do? One wise, it's kind of

317
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 1: been a roller coaster for those fans. I'm sure they're

318
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 1: saying the same thing, but as always, the season preview

319
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 1: is coming up soon, stay tuned. As always, I appreciate you.

320
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 1: You could be anywhere in the world, but you here

Speaker 1: with me and man I thank you for that. Have

322
