Hi everybody, and welcome in. I want to 18 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 1: talk about the Green Bay Packers, a seventeen point come 19 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: from behind win. I don't think Jordan Love's great. I'm 20 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: not sure if he's even very good. I'm not sure 21 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: if he's good. He was twenty two to forty four. 22 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: Some drop passes, some really bad throws, but it's the 23 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: largest comeback in Packers history. I said this about Aaron Rodgers. 24 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: Some guys are great when it's all set up, when 25 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: they play close, so they play with the lead. I 26 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: always said the body language for Aaron Rodgers. If he 27 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: got behind big, he changed the way he played. He 28 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: became more cautious, more sale like he mailed in the game, 29 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: just wanted to protect his passer rating. Whether that's true 30 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: or not, that's something I've been saying for about seven 31 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: eight years or longer than Aaron Rodgers. So Jordan Love 32 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 1: trails seventeen to nothing, but he's got that young, naive, 33 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: optimistic we're never out of it till the game ends feel, 34 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: and I think players pick up on that. I think 35 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: teammates pick up on that. Now, did he get a break? 36 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 1: Derek Carr got hurt. Yes, he got a break. Lots 37 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: and lots of breaks happen in football games. I mean, 38 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: good God, if you watch the Vikings Chargers, each team 39 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: was trying to lose the game, like games are all 40 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 1: about breaks and opportunities. Jordan Love got an opportunity full 41 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 1: steam ahead, head down, optimistic, positive body language, positive energy, 42 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: and came back to win. If Derek Carr doesn't get hurt, 43 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: they don't win that football game. Derek moves the chains, 44 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: Jamis Winston comes in. He's going to be more three 45 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: and outs, more mistakes. Now, the Saints could have won 46 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: it with a field goal, but again they didn't. But 47 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: my takeaway and Jordan Love, I don't know what he is. 48 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: He's young. I said, I want Thanksgivings the time. He's 49 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: been sitting for three years. Give me to Thanksgiving. I'll 50 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: have a strong, more definitive opinion. He missed some easy 51 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: things today. He looked a little rattled today. But the 52 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: Packers have always done a really good job of drafting, developing, 53 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: avoiding chaos. They don't they can't get top free agents, 54 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 1: but in a weird way, it helps them. You never 55 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: have to deal with, you know, outside of a farvar 56 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers ego, you don't deal with a lot of 57 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 1: nonsense in Green Bay, right. You kind of know what 58 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: you have. You never feel like you have the most 59 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: talented team, but you have a talented team. But I 60 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: like the fact that Jordan Love biggest comeback in Packer history, positive, optimistic, 61 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: keep grinding These games last forever. I mean, good God, 62 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: the Jets didn't do anything all day and almost won 63 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: the game in a hail Mary. Just stay keep moving, 64 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: keep grinding, keep getting first downs. Sometimes it's just a 65 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: game of attrition. And the Packers win a game they 66 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: probably shouldn't have yet, they got a break. But I 67 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: was happy for Jordan Love. Twenty two of forty four 68 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: is not Joe Montana, but he's a kid. He's young. 69 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: When you're young, especially when you're young, these wins feel 70 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: like two. You know that's going to carry over to 71 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: the next game. That optimism. They get into that locker 72 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: room and they know they were down seventeen to nothing. 73 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: That's a big, big win for the Packers. So the 74 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: Dolphins drop by seventy. Burger beat the Broncos seventy to twenty. 75 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 1: I had said multiple weeks ago that I thought the 76 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: biggest potential tsunami in the league was Denver because of 77 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: the different personalities between Russell Wilson and Sean Payton and 78 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: the pressure for both to succeed quickly. The defense, which 79 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 1: carried the team last year is now really bad. Vance 80 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: Joseph is coaching it. It's horrendous. It's not the most 81 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 1: talented defense. They don't get a great pass rush on 82 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: a consistent basis. Bradley Chubb is now over the Dolphins, 83 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 1: so they could use at the trading deadline some defensive help. 84 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,919 Speaker 1: But this is an embarrassing loss the free I still 85 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: think they have a lot of talent. I still think 86 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: they can win games. But so much of Russell Wilson's legacy, 87 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: his reality is locker room stuff. Russell has always been 88 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: more popular out of the locker room than in it. 89 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, by the way, has often been popular in 90 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: the locker room, but takes some criticism out of it. 91 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: And that's a real thing. It doesn't really matter what's 92 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 1: set outside the room, what is inside the room. It 93 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: feels like to give up seventy points, like Miami's really good. 94 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: I think Miami is the best team in the league 95 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: right now. San Francisco is the best roster, Miami's the 96 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 1: best team. So the fact that Miami won doesn't shock me. 97 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:37,919 Speaker 1: I stayed away from it. I didn't want to touch it. 98 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 1: A lot of the wise guys like Denver and I'm like, 99 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,159 Speaker 1: no thanks. I think Miami is so creative, so clever 100 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: in the red zone. It's a master's class on how 101 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 1: to score points. Just total deception inside screens. I mean 102 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: almost as a rule, whatever they do initially, they'll go 103 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: the opposite way. Eventually they're just all sleight of hand. 104 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: It's like a classic, you know, magician with cards like 105 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: you just can't keep your eyes on where they're going. 106 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: But seventy to twenty feels like there's locker room issues. 107 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 1: And I always thought this was a big lift for 108 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: Sean Payton. He had to change the culture, the old 109 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:17,599 Speaker 1: line Russell Wilson, and it's not working and it's getting worse. 110 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 1: This sounds crazy, but I wouldn't be shocked if eventually 111 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson doesn't start, they blow it up. Russell Wilson 112 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 1: has always been aspirational, but the truth is he's never 113 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 1: been a great pocket passer. There's questions if you look 114 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: at Seattle, how great of a leader he was. I 115 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: thought he was until he left and got banged on 116 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: by four or five different ex teammates. I've never seen 117 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 1: that in my career, in my life of doing this, 118 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: I've never seen a star quarterback leave somewhere. I mean, 119 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: there are even people in Chicago that spoke up for 120 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 1: Jake Cutler. I didn't think. I didn't think anybody like 121 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: Jay Cutler. I'd never heard anybody bad mouth Aaron Rodgers. 122 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: When he left Green Bay, Russell got tagged by about 123 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: six four five six guys, and so I don't know 124 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: what this locker room is like, but I think we're 125 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: headed again. You could have lost today thirty four to thirty. 126 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: Thirty four to twenty seven been competitive. You could have 127 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: lost today. It's not that. Seventy to twenty feels like. 128 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: It's much much deeper than that. It's a cultural issue. 129 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: It's a locker room issue, it's a quitting issue, much 130 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: deeper problems. And Sean Payton's gonna win this thing. Okay, 131 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: Sean Payton coaches can coach to their seventy Belichick still 132 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 1: puts up great defensive game plans. He's gonna win this battle. 133 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: I don't know how they're going to get out of 134 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: this contract. They're gonna have to draft another quarterback. I 135 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: think they clearly will. Who would have thought in a 136 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: great college quarterback draft class Denver, Listen for all the 137 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 1: picks they gave up, the Broncos do have a first 138 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: round pick, and they need some defensive line help. But 139 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: I would draft a quarterback. The only way to get 140 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: out of this Russell Wilson thing if it doesn't work 141 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: is to hit in a quarterback. You don't have to 142 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: pay him for four to five years. That's your only hope. 143 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: And then eventually if it doesn't work this year, I'm 144 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: not even sure if Russell Wilson would be on the roster. 145 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: You just move him. But I mean, that sounds like hyperbolic. 146 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: I don't think it is. I don't think it is. 147 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: This is not This is going to be a personality 148 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: clash between Peyton and Russell Wilson, and Peyton's gonna win it. 149 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 1: Sean Payton's gonna win this. It's not going to be close. 150 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: And now for a segment called Making It Luke Easy, 151 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: brought to you by Morgan and Morgan, America's largest injury 152 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: law firm, and Tua made it look easy today twenty 153 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: three of thirty six four touchdowns on a passer rating 154 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: of one fifty five point eight.

The difference between retaining 167 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 1: a job and getting fired is often a play, and 168 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: I thought there was a chance that if the Chargers 169 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: lost today that Brandon Staley would have been fired on 170 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 1: the flight home. They remain so undisciplined, defensively bad defensive 171 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: penalties multiple times today bailing out the Vikings, who didn't 172 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: really generate a ton of offense. They had a great 173 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: touchdown to Justin Jefferson, who tends to score most of 174 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: his touchdowns in Minneapolis, but this defense, again, Justin Herbert 175 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: doesn't have Austin Eckler end of the game didn't have 176 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 1: Mike Williams and Herbert, so Herbert a lot of his 177 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: passes were underneath twelve yards in almost in lieu of 178 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: a running game. But there was a moment at the 179 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 1: end of this game, and again Hindsight's twenty twenty. But 180 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: it was fourth down in an inch, fourth down in 181 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: a foot, fourth down in this whatever, deep in their 182 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: own territory, punt it Minnesota. Kirk Cousins had been under 183 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,719 Speaker 1: intense pressure the entire game. You're a defensive coach. You're 184 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: getting tremendous pressure on Kirk Cousins. Punt it, make them 185 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: drive seventy five yards and win by a touchdown. Instead, 186 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,559 Speaker 1: Brandon Staley decides, I'm going to go for it deepen 187 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,599 Speaker 1: my own territory, and then I'm going to give it 188 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: to my least skilled offensive player. Herbert could roll out Keenan, 189 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:41,719 Speaker 1: Allen Everett, they have multiple receivers Palmer. No, they give 190 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 1: it to the backup running back who gets stuffed. Wow Wow, 191 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:53,319 Speaker 1: and an interception retains Brandon Staley's job. I think that's 192 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 1: how close it is, you know. Once again, Herbert puts 193 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:02,079 Speaker 1: up massive numbers. Herbert most the air free Herbert without 194 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: his star running back Mike Williams, gets hurt. If you're 195 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: scoring twenty eight points a week and that's what the 196 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: Chargers do, and the quarterback's got a passer rating in 197 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: the hundreds and is throwing for over three hundred yards, 198 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: you have to win those games. And the Chargers almost 199 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: gave it to a Viking team that can't run the 200 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: football and couldn't protect their quarterback. Think about that, couldn't 201 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: run the football, couldn't protect the quarterback, and they have 202 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: a quarterback and Kirk Cousins who's not hyper athletic. You 203 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: watch that game, there was no question. If you take 204 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson out of that game. Of the top twelve players, 205 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: eight nine were Chargers and they hold on for dear life. 206 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: What do they do well? They rush the passer pretty well. 207 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,679 Speaker 1: I think that's because of the people they've drafted, and 208 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: they have a really nice passing attack, again because of Herbert, 209 00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: Mike Williams, Keenan Allen, because of really good players. But 210 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 1: I don't think there's a team in the league that 211 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: is worse on attention to detail, A talented team that's 212 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: worse attention to detail than the Chargers. Brandon Staley keeps 213 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: his job, but they tried to give that thing away 214 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 1: half a dozen times with dumb penalties in key spots. 215 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,959 Speaker 1: We're back with another week of football, and Draft Kings 216 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: Sportsbook is keeping us in on all the NFL action 217 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: great offers.

But I think this is 229 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: just how Pittsburgh's gonna win. And I think that they're 230 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,559 Speaker 1: basically when they face offensive lines they can manipulate. I 231 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: did think their defense got a bit gas, Jimmy could 232 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: go to a second or third receiver. You couldn't do 233 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: that in the first half, couldn't do that in the 234 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: first three quarters. So I mean, I think every great 235 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: defense if they're on the field enough, and that's the 236 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: problem with the Steeler defense. They're fantastic. But this team 237 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: leads the league in three and outs. You know, they're 238 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: kind of an old school If they beat you over 239 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: the top, they can't they can't really run the ball. Pickett, 240 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: we'll let it loose. He moves okay, but it's a 241 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,839 Speaker 1: big play offense. Occasionally. This is your O line and 242 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 1: Kenny Pickets your quarterback. 243 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, one thing that's pretty clear is that 244 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,839 Speaker 2: I agree. One thing that's pretty clear is that they 245 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 2: drafted Najie Harris pretty high and he's just not that good. 246 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 2: He just looks kind of like an average, you know, 247 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,839 Speaker 2: run of the mill running back. Can you pick His 248 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 2: athleticism actually is one thing that makes him a little 249 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 2: more functional, because arm talent is nothing special. I mean, 250 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 2: you watch two guys to night that. 251 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 1: Just do not have great arms. 252 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 2: I mean, Jimmy Garoppolo's arm to me is getting dramatically worse, 253 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 2: you know, and I think the Steelers TJ Watt, I 254 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 2: don't know if they're gonna win enough games usually to 255 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 2: be the defensive player of the year. I guess JJ 256 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 2: Watt had some years, but they were still making the playoffs. 257 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 2: If this team's not a playoff team. But he has 258 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 2: twenty five sacks, I mean, he's on a torrid pace 259 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 2: right now. He's a fantastic player. But offensively, I'm with you. 260 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 2: I mean, I just you don't it's not pretty. 261 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I was thinking about this today that 262 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: I counted outside of about eight NFL teams Kansas City, Burrows, Fine, Cincinnati, 263 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 1: the Rams, Stafford. I still think has a couple of 264 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: really good years left if they can protect him. He's 265 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: still really good. Philadelphia, Baltimore, Buffalo, Jacksonville. There's about eight 266 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: teams right now that shouldn't draft a quarterback. Everybody else. 267 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: If I'm New England, I draft a quarterback. I don't 268 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: think they're in love with Mac Jones. Las Vegas obviously, Denver, 269 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: New York Giants. Minnesota absolutely drafted quarterback. Despite the NFL 270 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: altering rules for the last decade, all favoring offense. John 271 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: About eight teams in this league can consistently score and 272 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: that's about it. And I think these two teams tonight again, 273 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 1: these quarterbacks when pressured, oh, lines are both really average. 274 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: Points are a premium, and I think that this is 275 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: why they keep altering the rules. A lot of your 276 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: better athletes. These edge rushers. We can't find offensive linemen 277 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: in this league. There's just too many good edges and 278 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: these there's edge rushers everywhere. You can't block Max Crosby, 279 00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 1: you can't block TJ. Watt. I just look at this. 280 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: I think I looked at the Steelers and their recipe is, Listen, 281 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: we can win ten games a year just on defense 282 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 1: and a couple of over the top plays. 283 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 2: Well, if you look at it, everyone thinks Matt Canada 284 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 2: is the village idiot, and I think a lot listen. 285 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 2: I'm not saying he's Kyle shanahana McVeigh, but his personnel 286 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 2: is not great. We're on the flip side, Josh McDaniels. Now, 287 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 2: this is second opportunity in what fifteen plus years. Obviously, 288 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 2: the Denver thing a long time ago. He tied his 289 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 2: hands to t bow, tried to be Belichick two point 290 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 2: zero and that was He's ran out of the building 291 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 2: within a year and a half. This is not going well, Colin. 292 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 2: And he tied himself immediately to Jimmy Garoppolo. Who listen, 293 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 2: I know people love to be like, well, perty would 294 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 2: look the same. Jimmy Garoppolo is just not a very 295 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 2: good player right now. His arm strength has greatly diminished. 296 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 2: His decision making is horrendous. I got a text a 297 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 2: night from an NFL EXECU that was like, how do 298 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 2: you have DeVante Adams and Josh Jacobs And they basically 299 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 2: had seven points, you know, fifty five minutes of the game, Like, 300 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 2: what is going on this guy? Listen. Obviously, when you 301 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 2: have Tom Brady, you're going to be a better coach. 302 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 2: But he was viewed as just an excellent scommat x's 303 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 2: nos chess player, and you're watching him now as a 304 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 2: head coach. It just looks terrible, Colin. I don't know 305 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 2: how else to say it. He just he looks over 306 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 2: his head a little bit and a lot. He's tied 307 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 2: himself to Jimmy Garoppolo. 308 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:15,719 Speaker 1: Mike McDaniels so creative and clever with Miami and Shanahan 309 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 1: is as well as you called him. Mike McDaniel, the 310 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: Ivy League, Shanahan and then McVeigh I think also falls 311 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: into this. Really clever Andy Reid we know is reddy clever. 312 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 1: There's a very small handful of guys that are that 313 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: can really do their magicians and they can do a 314 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 1: lot of different things. Right. I kind of feel like 315 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels has an offense. This is what it is. 316 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:44,679 Speaker 1: He needs the right left tackle, the right quarterback, Whereas 317 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: I think Shanahan, McVeigh, McDaniels can kind of use their 318 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: personnel and there can be limitations at quarterback, limitations on 319 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 1: the offensive. Miami doesn't have a great offensive line, Rams 320 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: don't have a great offensive line. Doesn't matter, they figure 321 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: out a way to make it work. I kind of 322 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: feel Josh McDaniels is one of those you know, you know, 323 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 1: you ever have a college professor or I you know, 324 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 1: and he's good, but it's basically the same lecture for 325 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: thirty years, Like this is kind of the act he has. 326 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,679 Speaker 1: Really he hasn't really added to it. It's the same 327 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: tricks of thirty years ago and he's never updated things. 328 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: And I kind of feel like Josh McDaniels has an offense. 329 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: It's only as good as the quarterback. It bombed with Tebow, 330 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 1: it was great with Brady, and it's limited with Garoppolo. 331 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: It's not super clever. It's predicated on who's throwing the ball. 332 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 2: I would say. The other thing is these New England guys, 333 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 2: they always hire other New England guys. Where McDaniel's a 334 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 2: good example, he'd never worked with Vic Fangio. Hires mcfangiel. 335 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 2: Why he's the best defensive coordinator in the market. They 336 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 2: need to upgrade that side of the ball. And you 337 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 2: look at you know, Josh McDaniel, what does he do. 338 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 2: He goes get Patrick Graham, who was with Joe Judge, 339 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 2: who was with Bill Belichick, and they've all worked together. 340 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 2: They all stay so insulated as a group. Where these 341 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 2: Sean McVay, he's gone outside before, brand know, Brandon Staley, 342 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan had never worked with Steve Wilks. You gotta 343 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 2: be okay with thinking outside the box. Sometimes on you 344 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 2: on your position coaches, but specifically the coordinator on the 345 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 2: other side of the ball. I mean, the Raiders defense 346 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 2: is just they've been drafted high for fifteen plus years 347 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 2: and they're just always terrible. I mean, look, they draft 348 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 2: a guy in the top ten. That's the other thing. 349 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,439 Speaker 2: Personnel wise, you draft that guy you know from Texas 350 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 2: Tech over Jalen Carter and Collins Arse was saying, it's nice, 351 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 2: it doesn't look very good. You take that guy seven 352 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,360 Speaker 2: to eight. I mean, he's got to have some impact 353 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 2: on the game, and he looks, you know, like a 354 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 2: mid round pick at best. 355 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, their best players Max Crosby, who I think was 356 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: a fifth rounder and a directional school in Michigan, and 357 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: he's their best player, and their on defense best player. 358 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 1: Devonte Adams Fresno State, guy who's been good in the 359 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 1: league for a long time. All Right, I want to 360 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 1: talk Cowboys. So the Cowboys were missing three offensive linemen 361 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 1: starters and I and so there's some of that. Up 362 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: to four different offensive linemen played. And I think the 363 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: red zone is where average offensive lines go to die. 364 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 1: It's congested. You need the push. Teams that have great 365 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 1: old lines like Philadelphia are generally great in the red zone. 366 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 1: It's hard enough to block. It's really hard in a 367 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: congested space when you have a limited playbook, right half 368 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: your playbook you can't use when you're at the seven 369 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 1: yard line. You know, so when you're going backup offensive lineman. 370 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: For at one point Dallas wasn't gonna be great in 371 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,360 Speaker 1: the red zone. But I do think it points out 372 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: when I watched Dallas played, I think more than they 373 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 1: want to admit, Dak's Kirk Cousins with more mobility. There's 374 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: a way Dak is good. He plays with the lead. 375 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 1: He throws thirty four times or fewer. It's complimentary throwing. 376 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 1: It's play action throwing. Mike McCarthy trailed late in the game. 377 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 1: He was still running the ball, and Mike's thing is, 378 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 1: I'm not going to have him throw forty five times 379 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: a game. I know how this turns out. He'll throw interceptions, 380 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: make mistakes, he'll get dogged all week in practice. I'm 381 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: not going to have Dak confidence going to the tank. 382 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: And so they played kind of conservative trailing in the game. 383 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,199 Speaker 1: That was my take is that Mike's like, listen, I 384 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 1: know the outcome. He's got a bad record, and I 385 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 1: think Mike kind of fell like, I'm not going down there. 386 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: We're just gonna we're just gonna run the ball if 387 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: we can get one of these things. And I feel 388 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 1: it like with Dak, there's a way to play now 389 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: everybody's crushing McCarthy for the game plan. And again they 390 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: moved the ball. They actually ran the ball pretty well. 391 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: They moved the ball. They were just bad in the 392 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 1: red zone. My takeaway is I don't think McCarthy's a 393 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 1: great coach. And I kind of watched Dallas and I thought, oh, 394 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,640 Speaker 1: this is this is not how, this is not how 395 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: they win with Dak. That's my take. 396 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 2: Well, today's a good example on McCarthy. They get in 397 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 2: the red zone, they're one to five, right, they could 398 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 2: not Like you said, they moved the ball. They ran 399 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 2: the ball for almost two hundred yards. Pallard looked fantastic. 400 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 2: When I have Ceedee Lamb, Tony Pollard and Brandon Cooks 401 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 2: and I get within the ten or five yard line, 402 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,360 Speaker 2: I have to have a couple of plays using motions, 403 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,719 Speaker 2: some trickeration that Andy Reid, the McDaniel, that Sean McVay 404 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 2: to just get some layup walk in place. You saw 405 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 2: it all around the league today with these innovative offensive minds, 406 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 2: and you watch them, you're right, they're missing guys the 407 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 2: offensive line penalties today, Remember a couple years ago they 408 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,959 Speaker 2: led the league penalties. That was cropping up again today. 409 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 2: But understandable sometimes when you have new faces at you know, 410 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 2: in your front five. But to not have just a 411 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 2: couple go to easy walk in touchdowns today because let's 412 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 2: face it, Arizona's played pretty well this year, yep. I 413 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:18,239 Speaker 2: mean they were very feisty Week one against Washington. They 414 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,439 Speaker 2: were kicking the shit out of the Giants for a half, 415 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 2: and today they brought it. I mean, they were flying around. 416 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 2: If you didn't know that, all of us thought they 417 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 2: were gonna suck you go. This is a solid NFL team. 418 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 2: The quarterback looked good defensively, they were flying around. But yeah, 419 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 2: I mean I listen, Dak's been who he's been for 420 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 2: half a decade now, right. He hasn't changed. He's been solid. 421 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 2: But like that pick toward the end of the game, 422 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 2: which ultimately at that point in time they were gonna 423 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 2: they probably weren't gonna win anyway, But that's kind of him, 424 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,880 Speaker 2: you know, Cousins does like you said the same thing. 425 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,199 Speaker 2: And this is where I get back to to not 426 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 2: have just whether it's a zone red play, the Dak 427 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 2: can get a walk in. Jordan Love had that play 428 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 2: today on the goal line where he scored touchdown that 429 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 2: kind of you know, got the momentum back for them. 430 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 2: It feels like sometimes McCarthy's just kind of banging his 431 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 2: head against the wall and listen, I thought Dallas was 432 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 2: a legitimate Super Bowl contender. You watch games like today, 433 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,880 Speaker 2: the coach and the quarterback. Man, if they're not, you're 434 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 2: going to have to beat some really good offensive play 435 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 2: callers and some really good quarterbacks. And McCarthy, man, there's 436 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 2: a reason he didn't win a lot of those NFC 437 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 2: championship games. It's not like they went to four Super 438 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,719 Speaker 2: Bowls and only won the one with Aaron Right. They 439 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 2: went to five NFC Championship games, and beside the one 440 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 2: they won, they never won any of those games. 441 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: For a limited time, you can save up to forty 442 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: percent off on an NFL Plus Premium annual subscription when 443 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 1: you sign up through Plus Play from Verizon plus Play. 444 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 1: It is a platform where you can shop, manage, and 445 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: save on the subscriptions you already love.

Get it before it's gone. One of 458 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: the things that is really interesting, Jimmy Johnson was really 459 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: outspoken about Brandon Staley and if you watch, I watched 460 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 1: every second of that game. Both those teams were trying 461 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: to give that game away the Chargers outside of Justin Jefferson, 462 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: and maybe that there's a safety for Minnesota who's really 463 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: good the Notre Dame Guide's been in the league for years. 464 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 2: Harrison Smith. 465 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Chargers have better players all of the field. 466 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: It's not even debatable, better old line, better pass rush, 467 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: just have better roster. But what was remarkable about Brandon 468 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: Staley going for it on fourth down at the twenty 469 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: four is it Minnesota Number one had no timeouts left, 470 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: had struggled to block increasingly in that game, struggled to 471 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 1: block the Chargers front. So no timeouts, you punt it. 472 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: Let's say they fair catch it at the thirty thirty five. 473 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 1: They need a touchdown to win. They have no timeouts left, 474 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: and the pressure has increased on Kirk Cousins, who's not 475 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 1: a big throw the ball down the field, not a 476 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: deep ball thrower anyway, And they really had abandoned a 477 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 1: lot of that because they just didn't have time to 478 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,719 Speaker 1: set up for that. They couldn't get the protection. And 479 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: he goes for it, and then not only does he 480 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,919 Speaker 1: go for it, the worst skill player on the field 481 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,679 Speaker 1: is the guy who gets the ball, the backup running 482 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 1: back because Austin Ecker didn't play. And I'm like, what timeout? 483 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 1: That wasn't a tough one, no timeouts. I mean, you're 484 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,439 Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator, you're getting great pass rush and they 485 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: can't call a timeout. They have to get into the 486 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 1: end zone. I thought it was almost a fireable. I thought, 487 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 1: if they lost that game, you could fire him flying 488 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,199 Speaker 1: back home. Now that is am I overreacting to that? 489 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 2: Well, I thought if they lost the game when today started, 490 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 2: before the ball even kicked off. I don't see how 491 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,360 Speaker 2: you didn't fire him. Now, I'm not shocked at him 492 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:16,959 Speaker 2: going for it. This is what he's been doing for 493 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 2: two and a half years. Like he's gone for it 494 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 2: in insane time. Remember a couple of years ago against 495 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,919 Speaker 2: the Raiders, he went forward like I think at the 496 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,160 Speaker 2: twenty yard line, not even at the twenty four. Now, 497 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,120 Speaker 2: it was earlier in the game. But I also think 498 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 2: when you talk to people around the league, these owners 499 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 2: and a lot of gms, and you know t LESCo 500 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 2: are very numbers driven and are very pro the quote 501 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 2: unquote go for it or Historically that was never the 502 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 2: case in football. It was much more conservative, always punted 503 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 2: and played defense. Which is that tide has clearly shifted 504 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 2: to me, like he's gonna go for it. He's been 505 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,880 Speaker 2: doing stupid shit his entire tenure as the Charger coach. 506 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 2: It's more just about the way the defense looks. They 507 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 2: look like a really good big twelve team. They can 508 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 2: score on anybody, can't stop a soul. You're talking gaping holes, Colin, 509 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 2: Where is everybody? Does anyone know what's going on on defense? 510 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 2: It happened a lot for Lincoln at Oklahoma forever. It's 511 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 2: like we're not on the same page here. 512 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: The Chargers are returning all their starters. Now they have 513 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: the kid from us see the rush in, but essentially 514 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: it's the same starting group and there's they're a bad 515 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 1: third and long defense. It's like, guys, So they didn't 516 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 1: play j. C. Jackson today, And my takeaway was, when 517 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: you play the Vikings, you can't let Justin Jefferson get 518 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: over the top. And J. C. Jackson just doesn't have 519 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: He's not football smart. I don't know him personally, he's 520 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 1: not football smart. It's why, by the way, it's why 521 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 1: Belichick let him go. And Belichick just gave up on him. 522 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,640 Speaker 1: You know, say what you want about Belichick on offense, 523 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,479 Speaker 1: you almost never beat New England over the top. And 524 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: so the Chargers didn't play him. And my take is 525 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 1: he's just not football smart, like he just is in 526 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: the wrong spot. He bites on anything. And so they said, 527 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 1: if Justin Jefferson doesn't meet us over the top, we're 528 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 1: gonna sit J. C. Jackson and we'll just keep everything 529 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 1: in front and Kirk has to drive. And by the way, 530 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 1: it mostly is effective against Kirk. That's a heavy penalized team. 531 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,479 Speaker 1: It's a heavy turnover team. The game plan was solid. 532 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: There was at least two moments, could have been three 533 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 1: where they stopped where they bailed the vikings out with 534 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: defensive penalties Like I'm second and twenty third and fifteen. 535 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 1: You're like, guys, there's a lot of veterans on this field. 536 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: This is just defensive coach returning starters, guys that have 537 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 1: been around multiple undisciplined penalties. 538 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 2: I I, and I like you could justify firing them. 539 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 2: I think even with the win, like, where's this going? 540 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 2: What are we doing? It's the same thing every week, 541 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 2: win or lose. They always look the same. How often 542 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 2: does an eight to ten yard completion turn into twenty 543 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 2: seven yards? You know, defenders running into each other bad angles, 544 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 2: and they get so many explosive plays. That is a 545 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 2: pretty basic seven yard you know, slant route that goes 546 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 2: another twenty six yards. That's why they were able to 547 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 2: constantly get back into the game because they can't tackle 548 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 2: a soul. The defensive backs now for two and a 549 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 2: half years, never feel like they know where they're supposed 550 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 2: to be. Ever, like you say, JC Jackson, they just 551 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 2: waved the white flag on that one they said, all 552 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 2: this money whatever, healthy and active. Yeah, but the guys 553 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 2: that were out there today, And this is what I 554 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 2: think people are so critical of him that he's a 555 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 2: defensive head coach. He's really when you're a defensive coordinator, 556 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 2: you're in charge of the coverages, like that's the most 557 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 2: important thing, right, the coverages against you know, and clearly 558 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 2: the coverages he's calling, his players do not know how 559 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 2: that he wants them to execute it because they're all 560 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 2: over the map on any given call, Guys out of position, 561 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 2: guys wide open. It does look like a college team 562 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 2: that is having to win, you know, on a weekly basis. 563 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 2: Forty eight to forty five, that's kind of the way 564 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 2: they have to play. But in the NFL that's very 565 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 2: difficult because you're margin feir so small offense, you're going 566 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 2: to screw up sometimes. I mean, he was forty to 567 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 2: forty seven today. Now he got lucky on the one 568 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 2: touchdown that could have been a pick. But he is 569 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 2: playing really, really well, and I know that sometimes it 570 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 2: gets pushed back, why don't you win more? If you 571 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 2: just watch the Chargers play, you will understand why he 572 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 2: just doesn't quote unquote win more. 573 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean he basically without Austin Eckler, they have 574 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 1: no run games. So it's a short passing game. And 575 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: I don't think there's a quarterback in the league maybe 576 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 1: Mahomes who is better on the catch it. Throw it 577 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: to the perimeter. That's not as easy as it looks. Herbert. 578 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: It is a complete layup. He must have had eighteen 579 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 1: of those today, maybe twenty five. Catch it, throw it, 580 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen, It doesn't matter. Gerald Everett. By the way, 581 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 1: that's not a layup for a lot of guys in 582 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 1: this league. It is a layup for Justin Herbert, just 583 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: out even crossfield throws easy stuff. So pivot to this. 584 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: It's very obvious that, you know, Zach Wilson, he's not 585 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: a franchise quarterback, and I think we all knew that 586 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: coming into the season. They're gonna punt on him. Think 587 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: I think the Chicago Bears are very likely going to 588 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: have the number one pick, you know, Arizona Josh Dobbs 589 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: as a backup to Kyler. Murray's actually a pretty good 590 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: quarterback room if Kyler. If Kyler's centered and ready to go, 591 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 1: that's a hell of a quarterback room. That would not 592 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: be your issue. I just think, like you said, they're feisty, 593 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 1: they're fast, they they're competitive at home. They're gonna win 594 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: five or six games. If Kyler comes back, they go 595 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 1: wins six or seven. Josh Dobbs can certainly make throws. 596 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: You know, good kid in the room, moves well. They'll 597 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 1: win games justin fields can't play. Like you watch this 598 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: like you can tell how teams defend him. They don't 599 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 1: think he can play, they don't think he can see 600 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: the field. They don't respect him so much to this 601 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 1: game is predicated on Coaches will tell you what they 602 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 1: think of their personnel. They'll also tell you what they 603 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: think of their personnel. And I think Kansas City came 604 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: into this game and said, we're going to be hyper aggressive. 605 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 1: We don't care we can make mistakes. I watching him today, 606 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, I'm trying to be a good guy, 607 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 1: right like everybody in the media is trying to be nice. 608 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson came in kind of cocky. It was easy 609 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 1: to go he can't play. But when a guy comes 610 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 1: in it's a big city, you know, he doesn't have 611 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 1: a huge attitude. You see some tools. I thought after 612 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: today I'm like, wow, this is nobody in that building, 613 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 1: No way. Ryan Poles thinks this is the future, right. 614 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 2: I think the question is is everyone in major trouble? 615 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 2: I mean they had a really rough week obviously, the 616 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 2: situation with their defensive coordinator. The quarterback, like you said, 617 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 2: he's just he's a bad football player, Like you can't 618 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 2: not only not franchise. These guys aren't starting quarterbacks. And 619 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 2: I think you would ask yourself, well, would you want 620 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,959 Speaker 2: him as your backup? Because Joshua Dobbs. Some of these 621 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:52,920 Speaker 2: guys you see as a backup, like they can function. 622 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 2: Look at Jordan Love Now, he was a backup for 623 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 2: a while. He's a functional player. How good they're ceiling is, 624 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 2: I don't know, but justin fields can't complete passes. At 625 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 2: one point in time today they were getting destroyed. It 626 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 2: was in the fourth quarter. He had sixteen pass attempts. 627 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 2: They don't even trust to throw them. When he said 628 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 2: this week the coaching comment, which if you watch him 629 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 2: say it, I don't think he was trying to drive 630 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 2: a bus over the offensive coordinator, but he was basically admitting, 631 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 2: like they want me to run a normal NFL offense 632 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 2: where I go one to two to three, and we 633 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 2: try to pass like these other teams and I can't 634 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 2: do it because I turn into a robot and I 635 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 2: don't know how to function. Part of being a great 636 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 2: quarterback is kind of blending that instincts with the robotic nature, right, 637 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 2: because some of these throws you gotta just turn into 638 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 2: a robot, dump it down for four yards, right and 639 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 2: think at lightning speed. I mean you're talking less than 640 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 2: three Mississippis that ball you're firing around, knowing the coverage, 641 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 2: knowing the hot routes. There's a lot going on. It's 642 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 2: why most people have no shot to do it. And 643 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 2: he is completely overwhelmed. I thought his physical tools I 644 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 2: liked him as a college prospect. They don't translate really 645 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 2: like to me. His the our motion doesn't feel very smooth. 646 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 2: Clearly now he's like trying to guide it, but he 647 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 2: has no clue where the ball's going. They are a mess. 648 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,280 Speaker 2: Calling for as shitty as as Denver was today seventy points, 649 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 2: you could argue that was even worse. There was a 650 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 2: moment where Denver was feisty early That game was just 651 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 2: it was a Taylor Swift party. 652 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's you do get to a point in Chicago, 653 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,839 Speaker 1: and I've said this, some of it's cultural. They don't 654 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 1: do offense well. They've never had a star quarterback. Al 655 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: Sean Jeffery is their best receiver. They've had very few 656 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: great offensive lines. I mean they it's weird about this, 657 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: John and I. It's almost like every Laker team almost 658 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: that's ever won a title has been flashy, and every 659 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 1: Celtic team that's ever won has been feisty because Boston's feisty, right, 660 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 1: and LA's glitzy. Every Detroit team that's been great has 661 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 1: been tough. Same with Pittsburgh. Like you become your city 662 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 1: or something, you become the culture around you. In Chicago 663 00:34:56,680 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: is a Midwest nobs tough, hit in the mouth, you know, 664 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,319 Speaker 1: beer and Bratstown right, Like it's it's my favorite big 665 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,359 Speaker 1: city in the country. But it's just authentic. It's real. 666 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: They love they I can name six great linebackers for 667 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 1: the Bears. I can't name two good receivers. And so 668 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:16,760 Speaker 1: they don't do offense well. They don't have a sentence 669 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: for it. They don't. They're not a touchy feely organization. 670 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: I mean, you can go to Kansas City. It could 671 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 1: be Lenn Dawson, it's Alex Smith, it's Patrick Mahomes. They 672 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,800 Speaker 1: had Joe Montana. I mean, Kansas City's had like seven 673 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 1: different quarterbacks, Green Bays, Bart Start, Brett Fahr, Aaron Rodgers, 674 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: Jordan Love may make it. They just know how to 675 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: develop quarterbacks. Chicago doesn't. They're still celebrating the eighty five Bears. 676 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 1: So to come in there, Let's say Kayleb Williams goes there. 677 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 1: I don't trust this staff, do you? 678 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,840 Speaker 2: I think depending on what comes out about this defensive coordinator. 679 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 2: And I'm not laying the blame on anything he did 680 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 2: in his personal life or even if it crossed over 681 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 2: professionally on Eberflus, Like, these are grown men making millions 682 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 2: of dollars, But there are moments where you can look 683 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 2: back and go, that was the beginning of the end, 684 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:09,760 Speaker 2: and that situation, all the rumors floating him having to resign. 685 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 2: Clearly people reporting today that it wasn't anything criminal, it 686 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 2: was inappropriate. It'll be very fascinating as information comes out. 687 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,360 Speaker 2: But Caleb's dad has been on record about the situation 688 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,879 Speaker 2: in the draft, this situation, they have a defensive head 689 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 2: coach whose defense is it couldn't be any worse. I mean, 690 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 2: it's as bad as it gets. The staff feels overwhelmed 691 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 2: the quarterback, which isn't their fault. I mean, these guys 692 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 2: didn't draft him, but is getting worse by the week. Yes, 693 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 2: So the narrative and the negativity surrounding this operation when 694 00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 2: the season ends is gonna be at an all time high, right, 695 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 2: I mean, it's just gonna there's gonna be a lot 696 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 2: of negativity from every angle. And you just wonder a 697 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 2: guy that is viewed as this all time great player, 698 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 2: who's got some strong opinions, and he's got some money 699 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,319 Speaker 2: and his dad's involved. Like, I don't think it's a 700 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 2: lock that they just don't make a us about this. 701 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 2: And I had people like DM and me. Do you 702 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,359 Speaker 2: think that they would push the ownership to hire an 703 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 2: offensive coach. It's kind of hard in football to do 704 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 2: maneuvering like that. This isn't basketball. But I do think 705 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 2: that in the next month or two, if I'm the 706 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 2: owner of the Bears and I've known people that worked there, 707 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 2: and that place is very old schools, yes, defense very 708 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,320 Speaker 2: people that have worked several places, they're like, it's actually 709 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 2: much closer to a mom and pop shop for some 710 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 2: you know organization. Yeah, for five billion that anyone could 711 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 2: even fathom. Right, they need to do a lot of 712 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 2: just kind of looking in the mirror and changing. But 713 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 2: as long as the ownership is the ownership, I don't 714 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,240 Speaker 2: know if things are going to dramatically change, which is sad. 715 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,399 Speaker 1: You know, the ownership went to Bill Pollion. He went 716 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,919 Speaker 1: and got Matt eberflus So. And I don't know much 717 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 1: about Matt eberflus I have two people that know him, 718 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,839 Speaker 1: like him, nice guy. He inherited. You know, they had 719 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 1: to move off ropewand Smith, they had to move off 720 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 1: some defensive players. They're starting over. Then you become very 721 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,800 Speaker 1: beholden to your GM and who he can draft. But 722 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,720 Speaker 1: it's interesting. I've thought about the Bears, like where would 723 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: you go if you flushed it and started over? And 724 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley does not want to coach right now? NFL football? Okay, 725 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 1: So you're like, Okay, the college guy, Ryan Day is 726 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 1: more served to me. He's more high emotion. He's a 727 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: college coach, not a pro coach. We saw it again 728 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 1: this week and I like him, but he's raw, raw guy. 729 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 1: So Kellen Moore, I don't think is ready for Chicago. 730 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 1: I think he would get the Charger job if Staley 731 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 1: got fired, So the Chargers wouldn't let him go there. 732 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh would make them probably too uncomfortable. 733 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:38,879 Speaker 1: Well, Harbaugh is somebody. I Harbaugh would go pro if 734 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,359 Speaker 1: Caleb Williams came out. I think it's the perfect time 735 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 1: now Harball wants control of personnel. So could they do 736 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: a situation like Sean Payton where Sean Payton comes in, 737 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 1: Harball comes in is not the initial GM. They just 738 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 1: make it work for a year and then I think 739 00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:57,319 Speaker 1: Sean will basically take over some personnel here pretty quick. 740 00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 2: I would agree. 741 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,319 Speaker 1: So, but I I if I was, I just don't 742 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 1: feel good at it. And I'm not saying Justin Fields 743 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:07,720 Speaker 1: can play it. Today was just like, by this is bad. 744 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 1: I think I'd start over. I think I would just 745 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:13,800 Speaker 1: flush it out and start up. Listen. A couple of 746 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 1: years ago, Ryan Polls to GM drafted VELAs Jones in 747 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:19,760 Speaker 1: the third round. Wide receiver, USC who transferred to Tennessee 748 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 1: couldn't play a lick at either place. It's like watch film. 749 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,319 Speaker 1: He couldn't. He couldn't, he couldn't track the ball. He's 750 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,439 Speaker 1: a receiver who couldn't track the ball like I saw 751 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 1: that pick it. I'm like, Okay, they don't know what 752 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:29,879 Speaker 1: they're doing. 753 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 2: Well, I can't get over Week one when Chase Claypool 754 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,760 Speaker 2: did what he did, which was nothing and didn't even try, 755 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 2: and they got embarrassed and they just didn't cut him 756 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,400 Speaker 2: the next day to kind of draw a line in 757 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 2: the sand as their organization, this will not be tolerated. 758 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 2: An Andy Reid, a Pete Carroll, that would never be allowed, 759 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick and back. And you've been talking about this 760 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:50,800 Speaker 2: for a long time. Think about some of the coaches 761 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 2: right now. Robert salom Was, Zach Wilson, ebra Flus with 762 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 2: Justin Fields, they can do nothing to help that guy 763 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,080 Speaker 2: besides just philosophically be like, run the ball more if 764 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,680 Speaker 2: they can't be in the meeting room coaching them up, 765 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 2: designing plays. So even when you get into a pinch, 766 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,800 Speaker 2: if you're Sean McVay last year, you can influence Baker 767 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 2: Mayfield when you pick them up off the scripe because 768 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 2: you're the guy gonna be working with them, or Kyle Shanner, 769 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,879 Speaker 2: all these Lafleur with Jordan Love, they can work through 770 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 2: things like you saw today it was not going well. 771 00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 2: Then Lafour's on a knee over with them, Robert Salaz 772 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 2: just on the sideline as Zach Wilson's running for his 773 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:27,880 Speaker 2: life skipping balls. He has no Mike Tomlin with Kenny 774 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 2: Pickett when things go bad, like, what can he actually 775 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,839 Speaker 2: do besides some Ryan day raw Ross beaches. And I'm 776 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 2: not saying they're not, you know, capable and obviously accomplished 777 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 2: and know what they're doing leading a group of men, 778 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 2: But when it gets into the schematics and the coaching 779 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 2: specifically of that position, these defensive coordinators that are head 780 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 2: coaches just can't do much beside build some confidence by 781 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:51,759 Speaker 2: whispering in their ear. 782 00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I think that's why I think with Chicago, 783 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,120 Speaker 1: I think you kind of burn it down started over. 784 00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 1: I think you go get a Caleb Williams. And I'm 785 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 1: not saying if Kingsbury would get a second shot. It 786 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 1: felt like he was a little over his skis, but 787 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 1: he did get them to the playoffs. And I know 788 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 1: Kingsbury at USC and Caleb have a great relationship and 789 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 1: he feels like he could he I don't know if 790 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 1: he'd ever want to go. You know, he to me, 791 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,240 Speaker 1: he's either I think Cliff would like to get another 792 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,560 Speaker 1: pro job and I but it's you know, basically, Chicago's 793 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,320 Speaker 1: a cold weather Arizona where you don't trust the ownership, 794 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:28,399 Speaker 1: you don't trust the front office. You just you're as 795 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 1: good as your quarterback. But as little confident as I 796 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,160 Speaker 1: have in justin fields, I think there's a lot of 797 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,279 Speaker 1: blame to go around. And to your point, I don't 798 00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:40,439 Speaker 1: think these defensive coordinators can figure it out. I do 799 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 1: want to want to talk before we go, and I'd 800 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,400 Speaker 1: said this earlier. Yeah, Denver's defense has been a mess 801 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,319 Speaker 1: this year. So obviously not all the blame goes on 802 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:55,279 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. But this is going to be a fascinating 803 00:41:55,800 --> 00:42:00,800 Speaker 1: cultural situation because Russell's never been really popular in the room. 804 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 1: He's been popular with public media, but not in the room. 805 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,400 Speaker 1: He leaves Seattle, he got dogged by like five guys, 806 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,640 Speaker 1: and so that's big to Sean Payton. I know Sean 807 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 1: well enough. In the room is what he really cares about. 808 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 1: That's why he said those things stop kissing babies? Mean, 809 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 1: who gives a shit what anybody outside the room thinks? 810 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:25,239 Speaker 1: Win the room over I wonder if Sean Payton has 811 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 1: already made a decision like I'm out on this. This 812 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: guy isn't me. It doesn't work because they're really polar 813 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,800 Speaker 1: opposites in terms of personality. How long before he bails completely? 814 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 2: I mean, I think he could make a change in 815 00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 2: the next three or four weeks and just justify it. 816 00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 2: We need a spark though. Obviously today Russell didn't give 817 00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 2: up seventy points. I mean seventy points. Colin, Yes, I 818 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:50,000 Speaker 2: don't know how you shake that. I never thought they 819 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 2: were a great fit, just personality wise. Clearly Russell is 820 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:58,839 Speaker 2: not the same and this organization needs a complete blow up. 821 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 2: The problem is, what do you do right the contract 822 00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:05,440 Speaker 2: for several years, from dead cap money to cap space, 823 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:07,879 Speaker 2: the bonus you paid him, you're kind of stuck with him. 824 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:11,239 Speaker 2: He has no trade value, so you can't really get 825 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 2: rid of him. Essentially, you probably one year if you 826 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 2: did get a really high pick, which they keep giving 827 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:17,919 Speaker 2: up seventy points, I'll promise you they will get one. 828 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:21,240 Speaker 2: Do you just cut them, take the enormous dead cap 829 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:23,800 Speaker 2: for like the year because it accelerates on your books, 830 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,279 Speaker 2: and just roll with a young quarterback and just kind 831 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 2: of cut bait and move on. You know, the Eagles 832 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:30,960 Speaker 2: were all were lucky with Carson Wentz right, they were 833 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,319 Speaker 2: able to kind of just get rid of them, and 834 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 2: even though and it actually ended up giving them a 835 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,360 Speaker 2: first round pick from the Colts. But a lot of 836 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 2: times in these situations you can unload it, and this one, 837 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 2: to me is not going to be an unloading situation. 838 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 2: But he's got the quarterback, Like you said, the GM. 839 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:49,240 Speaker 2: He didn't hire this GM like this GM. He's playing 840 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 2: nice for a year. This is this happens all the time, 841 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:54,960 Speaker 2: and then he'll get bringing his own guy is the 842 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,520 Speaker 2: defensive coordinator Vance Joseph. Look at his resume lately. 843 00:43:57,560 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 1: It is no he'll get he'll get wack differs. 844 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 2: Defense this year was good and now today, I mean 845 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 2: they quit. The only way to give up seventy points 846 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:08,520 Speaker 2: is by quitting and tapping out and literally not trying. 847 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 2: So he's going to have an entire organizational He probably 848 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 2: thought he had some you know, uh in terms of 849 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 2: making some steps forward this offseason, but it's clear that 850 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:20,879 Speaker 2: they're worse than last year. Like it's pretty crazy because 851 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 2: at least last year the defensive coordinator that's now in Carolina, 852 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 2: they were good on defense at least for a long 853 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:28,839 Speaker 2: percentage of the you know, the season, until they kind 854 00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:30,760 Speaker 2: of ran out of juice. But I think Sean Pay's 855 00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,560 Speaker 2: got to blow the entire thing up, and the rough situation, 856 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 2: you're just kind of stuck unless you want to cut 857 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,520 Speaker 2: him and just take you know, historically high dead cap. 858 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 2: But then you got to rehaul your defensive staff. You 859 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:44,799 Speaker 2: don't have that, you know, your draft picks. Uh, There'll 860 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 2: just be a lot of pressure on this team because 861 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 2: they are nowhere close. I mean today was I mean, 862 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 2: is that one of the most embarrassing days in the 863 00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 2: history of the NFL? You think for one given team. 864 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:56,479 Speaker 1: It's it's really ugly. You know, I was thinking about 865 00:44:56,480 --> 00:45:01,240 Speaker 1: this so Sean and I, I'm not like a close close, 866 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,759 Speaker 1: but you know, we have a nice relationship, and you 867 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:06,879 Speaker 1: know when you know, he had called me a couple 868 00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 1: of times about Fox and negotiating a TV deal, and 869 00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:13,880 Speaker 1: he really wanted to live in Manhattan Beach and coach 870 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:18,399 Speaker 1: the Chargers, and I thought he was just gonna wait 871 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,400 Speaker 1: for a year because neither I didn't think Brandon and 872 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 1: Staley was gonna last. And then we were communicating a 873 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,239 Speaker 1: lot and then all of a sudden, Sean and I 874 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:29,920 Speaker 1: weren't communicating a lot and then, and my takeaway was okay, 875 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 1: So I didn't want to bother him and pester him. 876 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 1: That's his you know, I've been doing this long enough. 877 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 1: I know when somebody stops communicating, you're probably a negotiation. 878 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,480 Speaker 1: And I didn't know exactly who, but I kind of 879 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 1: felt Denver because that's the stuff I was hearing about. 880 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:45,680 Speaker 1: And I got to be honest, I was surprised he 881 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:50,160 Speaker 1: took the job because he had said on the air 882 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:54,120 Speaker 1: there were concerns about Russell Wilson right and I. And 883 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:56,960 Speaker 1: this wasn't private conversation he had. You know, there's concerns 884 00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 1: about basketball and Grass does does he does he have it? 885 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,760 Speaker 1: So it's just so interesting because I would have bet 886 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,719 Speaker 1: my four oh one K a year ago that he 887 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,520 Speaker 1: would have just stayed. Fox was paying him. I imagined 888 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 1: good money. I know, good money. He would have just 889 00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 1: stayed and just waited for the Charger situation. But you know, 890 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 1: it's funny with coaches. They always you know, I've seen 891 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:24,960 Speaker 1: and friends years ago Mike Dunlevy took a clipper job, 892 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,360 Speaker 1: and I'm like Mike. He took the Blazers of the 893 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 1: Western Conference Finals and arguably, you know, outplayed the Lakers 894 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,520 Speaker 1: shack and Kobe. But you know, somebody offers you fifteen 895 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:36,600 Speaker 1: and eighteen million bucks or whatever it is, and I 896 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 1: just I don't think this was ever an ideal fit. 897 00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:42,359 Speaker 1: But money talks, and I think I look at it 898 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 1: now and I think, yeah, all the things I thought 899 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:48,759 Speaker 1: could possibly go wrong, not his GM, Russ and him, 900 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 1: don't click, tough division. They're all realities today. 901 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 2: Don't you think The wild card in this situation is 902 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:57,520 Speaker 2: this ownership. I mean, this family top two or three 903 00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:01,319 Speaker 2: wealthiest family in the world America, and they are not 904 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:05,440 Speaker 2: used to failing ever, So you know who knows the 905 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:09,560 Speaker 2: dynamics they are obviously Sean is you know, a very driven, 906 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:13,400 Speaker 2: intense individual. This family's used to things. I mean they've 907 00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:16,280 Speaker 2: been on I wouldn't say easy street, but their business 908 00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 2: that has been kind of on cruise control. 909 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:18,600 Speaker 1: For a while. 910 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 2: This has to be a shock to their system about 911 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:24,000 Speaker 2: what they're witnessing. And then the nature of unlike when 912 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 2: you own even major corporations, they just don't get talked 913 00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:29,160 Speaker 2: about like they do in terms of you drive around 914 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,880 Speaker 2: Denver tomorrow, turn on sports radio. Everyone's you know, talking 915 00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 2: shit about the thing you own. It's some people can't 916 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 2: especially new the new owner syndrome. That could be overwhelming 917 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:39,640 Speaker 2: and things could get weird, Things get weird fast. 918 00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:43,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, the you know, I think, you know, the minute 919 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 1: he could he signed Jarrett Stidham. I think he had reservations. 920 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 1: You know, Sean went and looked at every throw Russell 921 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 1: Wilson made, and I'm sure he saw things from the 922 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,640 Speaker 1: pocket right co Sell comes on my show weekly. He's 923 00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 1: been saying it for years. Russell Wilson from the pocket 924 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:02,759 Speaker 1: leaves a lot of throws out there. Sean saw that, 925 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:05,000 Speaker 1: and so he went and got Stitt. Him a guy 926 00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:08,880 Speaker 1: that can run his offense complete easy throws. So I 927 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:11,360 Speaker 1: just don't think this relationship is going to work. I 928 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 1: don't think this is all on Russell. But you know, 929 00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:16,719 Speaker 1: you give up draft capital, you pay him, You're going 930 00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:19,319 Speaker 1: to take the heat. And I do think the team 931 00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:23,760 Speaker 1: quit today. So does that say the locker room's not great? 932 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:26,240 Speaker 1: The locker rooms divided? I mean, you don't see teams 933 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 1: in the NFL quit. Maybe once a year we see 934 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 1: a team quit. You don't see him quit in week three, 935 00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:37,400 Speaker 1: Like that's a problem. It's week twelve, right, everybody's you know, 936 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: everything's put on film. So guys just don't quit in 937 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 1: this league. You just don't Monday, it's on film week three, 938 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 1: guys quit like that. That tells me there's a cultural issue. 939 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:49,279 Speaker 1: And Russell's the biggest star in. 940 00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 2: That room, saving grace for Sean those He has the 941 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 2: Raiders and the Chargers in his division. So it makes 942 00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 2: it a little bit easier if you could ever just 943 00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 2: get a couple of pieces in there and get it 944 00:48:58,800 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 2: rolling in. 945 00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:02,399 Speaker 1: The right direction, right, John Middlecoff three and out.
