You're live in New 3 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,759 Speaker 1: York City, Tuesday, November thirtieth. A new team is in 4 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 1: the NFC playoff picture. We'll get to it. My name's Kay. 5 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 1: We got Peter Schrager, Kyle Brant who Wild Champion Michael 6 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 1: Robinson to tell us what went down between the Washington 7 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 1: football team and the Seal. Russ says, we're in a 8 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 1: storm right now and that thing surges to the nation's capital. 9 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: La honey, have a day conservative two twenty three and 10 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,320 Speaker 1: a touchdown a seventeen fifteen win for Washington. That is 11 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,520 Speaker 1: very much alive in the NFC playoff push. But let's 12 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 1: go to the other side of things. Pete Carroll and 13 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson after a nationally televised loss again for Seattle. 14 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: Else just aren't coming, man, We can't. We can't get 15 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 1: these games one And you know what, I'm not accepting it. 16 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: And uh, I'm not taking the sideways step. I'm not 17 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 1: stepping anywhere but forward. And you're gonna keep driving to 18 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: get the very next chance we get and go get 19 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: a win and get going and Uh, I don't expect 20 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: these these guys at any time to do anything but 21 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 1: that we're gonna keep just stepping forward, to keep moving 22 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: and battle their way through it. It's it's been really frustrating, obviously, 23 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: and uh, but you know, I'm just not accepting we're 24 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 1: just gonna keep going, I think, Um, from a player's standpoint, 25 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: I mean, we just day in and day out, we 26 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: work our butts off, offensive side, defensive side, special teams. Um, 27 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: you know, we're in a storm, you know, And uh, 28 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: you know, I believe that we have to keep going, 29 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: and the only way to get to the other side 30 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: is just believing that the water's gonna calm down a 31 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: little bit and we'll be able to get through it. 32 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: Been left in the dust by the rest of this 33 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: competitive NFC west of three and eighth, three and eighth. 34 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: It's so weird. There's six games back from the Cardinals 35 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: in the NFC. They're the fifteen seed, they're head of 36 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: only the winless Lions. So disappointing, isn't the word? And Rob, 37 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: you've had all night, all season, and a couple of 38 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 1: hours this morning to sort of chew on this. You 39 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: said that they're parted they're headed towards separation, divorce change 40 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: at the very least, what is the future hold to 41 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson and company. Yeah, let's set the scene a 42 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: little bit. I mean, this past offseason, you get your 43 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: franchise quarterback and Russell Wilson, without being prompted, he just 44 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: goes out there and says teams that he would like 45 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: to play for. Not saying I want to be traded, 46 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: but if I was traded, these other teams I want 47 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: to go to. Right, So you set that scene. You 48 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 1: talk about how you wanted to be involved in, you know, 49 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 1: player acquisition, bringing players in, you want to be in 50 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: the decision making process, all of these things. And then 51 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: you come in this season as the leader of this 52 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: team and you don't play well. Then you get hurt 53 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,399 Speaker 1: and you come back too fast and the team still 54 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: isn't playing well. I think it can't be overstated when 55 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: your franchise quarterback makes a statement like that in the 56 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: off season as the leader of a team. Yeah, the 57 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,119 Speaker 1: guys in the locker room gonna look at your little funy, 58 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: They're gonna look at your So you don't believe in us? 59 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: Why are you here? Then? Like if I was in 60 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: that locker room. Those would be the questions I'd be 61 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: asking my franchise quarterback number one, number two. I do 62 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: think he came back too early. They wanted to talk 63 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: about him being a great healer and in challenging his 64 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: body to get back. Let's just be honest. Russell Wilson 65 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: is not healthy right now. The finger is affecting his 66 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: accuracy right, and being a quarterback, you have to be 67 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: accurate throwing the football. So I don't see a scenario well, 68 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll and Russell Wilson both come back to the 69 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks. I just don't see it. And you know, 70 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 1: I think Russell and his wife would like to be 71 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: in another city where you know, maybe her you know, 72 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: her business can get going and her career can get 73 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: going as well. But uh, I can't see them back 74 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: in this building. And I can't see Russell Wilson and 75 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: Pete Carel together and the powerful full stuff coming from you, 76 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: a former Seahawks legend and a Super Bowl winner of 77 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: the team who was with both those guys. Cans a 78 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: toothpaste out of the tube. You know that market, You 79 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: know that, like once he said that is it all 80 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: shore or can you pull it back in and maybe 81 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: find a way to reconcile. I think it's a host 82 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: to two man. I mean, I'm just talking to talking 83 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 1: to people on Twitter, talking a lot of the fans 84 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: who I mean, they love the Seattle Seahawks right at 85 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: the end of the day, everybody that I'm talking to online, 86 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 1: it's just like, you gotta press reset. It's time, right. 87 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: How about you just get something for Russell so that 88 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: you just not you know, so that you don't have 89 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: any you're bearing the cupboard at the quarterback position. I 90 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: think while he's under contract, you gotta get something back 91 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: for him. And I can't see and I know we 92 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: talked about this earlier, Peter and I can't see John 93 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: Snyder in that building without Pete Carroll is just a 94 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,559 Speaker 1: whole weird dynamic. And you talked about their contracts being, 95 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 1: you know, still going for another five years. That's a 96 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 1: tough It's just gonna be a messy off season my 97 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,559 Speaker 1: old team. It's gonna be an interesting team to watch. 98 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll is under contract through twenty twenty five. He's 99 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: seventy years old. John Schneider last playoffs signed a five 100 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: year extension on an extension he already had, so he's 101 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: there till twenty twenty seven. So look, these contracts. These 102 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: are billionaire owners. They can say, okay, well, fine, pet's gone, 103 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: We'll eat the costs, and that's what it is. But 104 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: they also don't love losing money. And to be wrapped 105 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: up with a GM and a coach for the next 106 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: seven years is a lot. Russell his contracts. A little 107 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: different question is can you trade Russell Wilson? Like not, 108 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: can you get something for him? You can get a 109 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: lot for him. Can you be the GM John Schneider 110 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: who's won a Super Bowl with can you be the 111 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: guy to say I'm the one who traded Russell Wilson 112 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: from Seattle, maybe the most beloved Seahawk of all time, 113 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: the only Seahawks quarterback to win a Super Bowl. He's 114 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 1: got the Walter Peyton Man of the Year thing last 115 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: off season. Aside, like, can the Seahawks actually trade Russell Wilson, 116 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: Because that's what's gonna have to take. They're not gonna 117 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 1: cut him, and it's gonna have to deal with either 118 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: him being holding out, being runhappy, or the Seahawks actively 119 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: saying it is time to press that button. The issue 120 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 1: here with the Seahawks in the near future. They're not 121 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: lushed with picks. Usually when you lose, it's like, all right, 122 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 1: at least be the first draw. Look at the top 123 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: ten picks right now in the draft. If we were 124 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: going to bring tomorrow that five one the Jamal Adams trade, 125 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: the Seahawks gave up their first round pick, which actually 126 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: ended up being the Jets pick last year and this 127 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,840 Speaker 1: year's first round pick, so like, can't You're not really 128 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: taking a quarterback in the first round. You don't have 129 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: a pick. So it's almost just like fire the coordinators. Okay, 130 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: they fire the coordinators every years. There has to be 131 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: a major change or we're just gonna say this was 132 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 1: a wash year. Russell was injured. We need to go 133 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: at it one more time. Let's bring the band back together. 134 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: I'm just not sure what it has to hear if 135 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 1: the toothpicks is already out of the tube and it's like, hey, 136 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: the damage is done, Let's put a wrap on this 137 00:06:57,800 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: and let's start a new era of seahaw quickly. What's 138 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: the market for him? Like teams will like one? Yeah, yeah, 139 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 1: I think I think teams would be lining up the 140 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: knocking down doors to get Russell Wilson probably two first 141 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: round picks. If Matt Stafford can get two first round picks, 142 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: I think Russell couldn't be get too, maybe even two 143 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: first round picks. It always, this seems always happened with Seattle, Griffy, 144 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: Sean Camp, Brady Johnson, Hey Rod, like those guys leave. 145 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: It's it's heartbreaking. But if if this isn't going to 146 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: become a Pete or Russ thing like that is not 147 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: a thing like Pete has to go, you can't trade 148 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson and you just don't see it, Like find 149 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: me the time a Hall of Fame superstar quarterback is 150 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: traded in his prime. Recent examples, So look at Rogers 151 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: wild circumstances, massive media stuff, very personal. Still didn't happen 152 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: to Shaun Watson, wild circumstances, very personal. They still wouldn't 153 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: do it. They still you can't as a GM, as 154 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: an owner and be like, yes, press the red nuclear 155 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: button and trade Russell. Don't think of any well Satt 156 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: Stafford got traded, okay, but a little bit different, and 157 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: you know they got a quarterback back. So I would 158 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: say the same thing to Seattle, like it's as ludicrous 159 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: as it is to trade Russell Wilson. Still there is 160 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: no plan B, there is no draft pick coming. But Kyle, 161 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: I hear you on that. What do you think? But 162 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: do you sit and continue to play this type of football? 163 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: You owe it to those twelves out there to compete, 164 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: even John Snyder. You owe it to the NPT, You 165 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: owe it to this fan base to compete in competing 166 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: at the general manager job is looking at your team, 167 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: understanding the right pieces and the wrong pieces, getting the 168 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 1: wrong pieces out of there, getting right compensation for those pieces. 169 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: That's how you compete at the general manager level. So 170 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: I would I would just push back a little bit 171 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: and just say, yeah, you don't usually see, you know, 172 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame superstar quarterbacks being traded. But at the 173 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: end of the day, the front office has to compete 174 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: two types of teams out we got a great quarterback 175 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: and we don't. I think those twelves this morning are 176 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: would be terrified of the prospect of losing Russell Wilson. 177 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: I think that'd be apoplectic for them. That is their 178 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: whole existence, that he is the whole franchise. They keep 179 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: Pete or they whatever they want to do with Pete. 180 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 1: Russ is gone. We aren't We're in the We're into 181 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: the upside down. He's the franchise. You can't. It is 182 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 1: peculiar and as eccentric as he can be. And it's 183 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 1: up and down as his players right now, like he's 184 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: the man in Seattle. Is that it's best? Yeah? Okay? 185 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: Winning championships always in the playoffs? Right? What was the 186 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: identity of this team? Defense one in the football? But 187 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: Russ made some place too, and Russ is very highly paid. 188 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: Now this is why it's tough. They can't run that 189 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: back thing? Is it to Rus? How much of it's 190 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 1: up to Russ Shriggs? Because if you're Russ and you're 191 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: already scruntled last year. If I'm looking when I'm making 192 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,439 Speaker 1: a decision to come back to a job, to pick 193 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 1: up an option to read to do another contract even 194 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: if things aren't good, now, I'm thinking to myself, what 195 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: are they going to offer me? What's going to be better? 196 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: What changes are going to be made on the production 197 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,439 Speaker 1: side or leadership? I don't see it there they change 198 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: they this whole season. It seemed like it was on 199 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: Shane Waldron, We're gonna this is the only change they made. 200 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 1: They made it two days after they lost in the playoffs. 201 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: It was almost like a knee jerk reaction, and it 202 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: was all on him and clearly does not panned out. 203 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 1: So they don't have a first round pick, they don't 204 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: have cap space. They can't say, well, we'll change the 205 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: production staff, we'll change what this looks like and make 206 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: it better. So if he was already to scruntil last year, 207 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: why would he ever want to come back next year? 208 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: They can't offer him anything. Question, that's a valid question. 209 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: That was my whole You don't pick up the option, 210 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: you don't come back to the job, and you were 211 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: pissed last year. That's what I'm saying, is a new 212 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 1: head coach. I mean, if that tickles his fancy, if 213 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: that's what he's into, and I don't know that it is. Yeah, 214 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 1: but that's the only option, and that's very expensive. He 215 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: under and he's under contracts. It's they can't help him out. 216 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: To you, I love that you're brought at the point 217 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: about their hamstrung completely. They don't. They can't help him 218 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: find a better wide receiver duo than lock it in. 219 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: Metcalfe not wrong, Tom Pella Sarah joining us now, Tom, 220 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 1: Good morning football to you. I hope you're enjoying the 221 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: hockey Twitter, It's probably on your timeline in your DMS. 222 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: Let's check it on a couple of injuries, there's big 223 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: implications in the NFC playoff picture. What is going on 224 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: with Aaron Rodgers his toe and then Dalvin Cook injured 225 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: as well. Never read the replies. Kay Packers quarterback Aaron 226 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: Rodgers did gather additional opinions Monday on his fractured left 227 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: pinkie toe and at this time, Rogers does not plan 228 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: to undergo surgery. Instead, the plan is to rest in 229 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: rehab over this bye week and hopefully he'll be feeling 230 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 1: better by their next game on December twelfth against the Bears. 231 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: Rogers has barely practiced in recent weeks because of this injury, 232 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: which has caused him pain, but he has not missed 233 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 1: the start. Elsewhere in the NFC, North Vikings running back 234 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook is expected to miss a little bit of 235 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 1: time after dislocating his shoulder during Sunday's loss to the 236 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: forty nine Ers. This is similar to an injury the 237 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 1: cookhead back in twenty nineteen. The Vikings held him out 238 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 1: for the final two games of the regular season. That year, 239 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: he was back for the playoffs. Any time that the 240 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: player dislocates his shoulder, it's a good bet that he 241 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: also tore his labor. But as long as there is 242 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: no bony injury, you can rehab that you can regain 243 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: your strength and range emotion, then return to play with 244 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: a harness, as Cooked has done for the past couple 245 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: of years. You can always have surgery if you want 246 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: to after the season, so this is nothing long term 247 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: for a Cook, but he is not expected to play 248 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: this week against the Lions. Okay, thank you so much. 249 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 1: Will NFC North update there. Here's the segment. It's called 250 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: we in or we Out? I say a statement and 251 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,079 Speaker 1: then we've bat around the table. You tell us at 252 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: home whether you're in or you're out. These usually too 253 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: very well on Twitter because they're polarizing takes. Well, here 254 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: is one that is an interesting one. The Bengals on 255 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 1: Sunday beat the snot out of their division rivals Steelers 256 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: forty one to ten. Take listen to what Joe Burrow 257 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 1: had to say after the win over the mighty Steelers 258 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 1: in week twelve. Were right where we want to be. No, 259 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: we have high operations this year. You know. We can't 260 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 1: let up now, though. I think we started out strong 261 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:07,719 Speaker 1: and then we kind of skidded a little bit there 262 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 1: in the middle of the season, and now coming down 263 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: the stretch, I think we're really hitting our stripes. We 264 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: gotta keep having great, great, great weeks of practice, and 265 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: I think we have the guys that are excited about 266 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 1: where we're at, but not satisfied. All right. So he 267 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,440 Speaker 1: was a first overall pick a few years ago, but 268 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,319 Speaker 1: justin Herbert won Offensive Rookie of the Year. And then 269 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: there's all these other guys in that conference. Joe Burrow 270 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals is quietly having a really good season. 271 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: But is he first team All Pro? Is he the 272 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: best in his conference? Here's the question or the statement. 273 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow is the best quarterback in the AFC? Right now? 274 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: It's final, Go Peter, Peter? Why do we like to do? Is? 275 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: I guess? Because we're all TV to me, it's about 276 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: which what do you? What do you like? Right? I 277 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 1: don't think Joe Burrow is the best quarterback in AFC. 278 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: I would personally take Josh Allen first. I would take 279 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahon after that, I would take Lamar Jackson, and 280 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: I know people will are, you know, saying Lamar Jackson 281 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: just really figured out how to throw the ball in 282 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,559 Speaker 1: the National Football League, But that got superman. He's the 283 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: lead running back for the Baltimore Ravens and he's starting 284 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 1: to push the ball downfield. Forget about those four interceptions. 285 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,839 Speaker 1: But I will tell you this, Joe Burrow is playing 286 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: with a lot of confidence. And I'm not so sure 287 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: there's another quarterback in in the AFC that injects is 288 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: much confidence until the rest of the guys around and 289 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: I will give Joe Burrow that they play with a 290 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: little bit of a swag. Now. I keep remembering this 291 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: SoundBite from earlier in the season when he was talking 292 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: that stuff like, don't z robe blitz me, don't you 293 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: can't z row me. That's the attitude that I'm saying 294 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: out of the Cincinnati Bengals. They're fighting now, they're getting 295 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: after it. That's what I would say. I'm not gonna 296 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: say he's the best quarterback in the AFC, but I 297 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: will say he had jackson most confidence in his team. 298 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: I love Joe Burrow. Is he playing the best in 299 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 1: the AFC right now, I'm gonna say no, because to me, 300 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 1: it comes down to consistency, It comes down to wins, 301 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: it comes down to numbers. And I think it's Mac Jones, 302 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: which is so kind. I'm crazy. I mean, six straight wins, 303 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 1: and don't give me this nonsense. If the defense cares 304 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 1: and the run game cares, if they do, no, listen, 305 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow had wins the past two weeks. He has 306 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: three hundred and thirty eight yards through the air. Mac 307 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: Jones has five hundred and seventeen yards over his past 308 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: two wins. Don't tell me that he went up against 309 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: the Titans defense that has been nasty of late and 310 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: he put up a three hundred yard game against him. 311 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 1: He's getting it done. He's not turning the ball over. 312 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow throws interception. Yeah you got twelve of them. Thanks. Yeah. 313 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: So there's and we're talking about who's playing the best 314 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 1: right now, it's Mac Jones. Like having him credit right now, 315 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 1: right underline. I tell his eyes highlighted circle. Sure, seventy 316 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: two points. I get it. Burrow's just almost there, right, 317 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: he almost like he's almost ready. I have to be 318 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: out on this. Mahomes threw five touchdown passes the last 319 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: time we saw him. Anyone on a buy and Peter like, 320 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 1: I'm way in on your quilted sweatshirt, but I'm out 321 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: on Burrow right now. If you were to ask me 322 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: to invest in a young quarterback in his first three seasons, 323 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: I'm taking Joe Burrow number one. There's something that Mike's 324 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: talking about. He has this cool I hate using the 325 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: words swagger because it's so overused, but he has this 326 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: ridiculous confidence from how he dresses to how he acts. 327 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: The only thing I don't like about Burrow is he 328 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: still thinks he's invincible, and he still throws his body 329 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 1: all over the place, even after a really bad injury. 330 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 1: He also threw interceptions on three straight plays against Chicago Bears. 331 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: He's still got that little bug in his system that 332 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: he can work out, you know, upgrade the software next year. 333 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: It's almost therapeuter. But I have to be out taking 334 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: over Herbert were young quarterbacks first. It's a great question, 335 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: and I think I would, Yes, I would dusin. Herbert 336 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 1: still makes the huge mistake too. He had a couple 337 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: of bad ones in the the last game. You know it's 338 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: really you look at that draft, Burrow went one, two 339 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: win five, Herbert win six in the off season, where like, 340 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: how could you pass on Herbert Head Dolphins fans might say, hey, 341 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: the last month blay Ball who was playing better than 342 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: So it's interesting how these things work out. And we'll 343 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: be analyzing all three quarterbacks for years to come, all 344 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: the same kind of questions. It is all right. Key. 345 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: Twitter came out of the woodwork on Sunday. They love 346 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: to weigh in our things, and they're weighing in on 347 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: a few key injuries that were sustained in the NFL 348 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 1: in racing weeks. First it was Aaron Rodgers's toe and 349 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: letting everyone know that, hey, look I've got a broken toe. 350 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 1: Sean O'Hara had some real thoughts on all the toe talk, 351 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: and then Vita Veay I got a tooth knocked out. 352 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: Vita played right through it. Fine. Hockey Twitter came out 353 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: and said, that's any given day, any given game. So 354 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: here's the statement. This is for all of our sports fans, 355 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: not just football. Hockey players are tougher than football players. Kyle, 356 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 1: are we in or we out? I'm gonna do the 357 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 1: two thumbs up. I'm weigh in I don't think they're 358 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: faster or stronger, more athletic, but man, they're sitting or 359 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: being like, hold on, somebody, guess they're tooth knocked out, 360 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: and you have to do a whole segment about it 361 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: if we do a segment when they don't have their 362 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: tooth knocked out. Classically trained in this. I played college football. 363 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 1: I remember there's a moment we were out on the 364 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: bars on a Saturday night and the word got out 365 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: that one of the hockey players from our university had 366 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: messed with one of the football players and it did 367 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:03,920 Speaker 1: not go well. A friend of mine on the football team, 368 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: you guys all know, who's very big and was very 369 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 1: biligerant at the time. He told me about it, and 370 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: I'm like, what are you gonna do something about it? 371 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: Is there gonna be a problem, You're gonna go? And 372 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,199 Speaker 1: he goes, hockey players take care of their business. They 373 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,360 Speaker 1: can police themselves. I'm out on that one. I was like, dude, 374 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: you you're looking to fight everybody, and it's just like, 375 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,199 Speaker 1: they take care of their business. I respect it, and 376 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: at that moment I knew that he was about this 377 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: big and the hockey players are tougher I'm gonna go hockey. 378 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 1: I was all over the map on this question. So 379 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: from you know, my experience with hockey's very minimal. It's 380 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 1: the Bash Brothers from you know, Mighty Ducks, and then 381 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: it's me bartending edy bar that closed at three in 382 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: the morning in Saint Louis, and then at three in 383 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 1: the morning after the games, these hockey players from the 384 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 1: Blues that will remain nameless would just come into the 385 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: bar and we'd stay open until about six in the 386 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: morning for them to hang out. And I'd be like, dude, 387 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: your eyeball is like hanging out your eyeballs, like hanging 388 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: out of your socket, like you have like what they had, 389 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:56,159 Speaker 1: all huge gashes. I'm like, it's just Halloween makeup. And 390 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: they would just be like, oh well, and they're fighting 391 00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:59,919 Speaker 1: over buck Hunter and Golden Tis still in the core 392 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: and I'm like, I'm listening to Rage against the machine. 393 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: So that's a level of toughness that I witnessed firsthand. 394 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: Although I'm sure alcohol numbs that kind of stuff or 395 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 1: makes it worse, I don't know. But then I thought 396 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: about it, and I thought Julian Edelman Steve Smith to 397 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: be these five eight five nine five ten six foot 398 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 1: wide receivers in the slot, Juice Landry who go and 399 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 1: get crushed knowing what's on the other side and still 400 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: make those catches. Anyway, I thought it has to be them. 401 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: But I think you're both tough. It's equal. Everybody's tough. 402 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: Hockey and football. Well, I'm just gonna say football is 403 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: tougher just because I don't know much about hockey. It's 404 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 1: all good. Had my cousins, they played hockey in Philadelphia, 405 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I was scared of the ice. 406 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 1: I was scared of the maids, scared of all of 407 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 1: that stuff. And you played Maids of Stealing Nintendo. No, 408 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: I did not. And I was a duck Hunt type 409 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:48,160 Speaker 1: of tough. I was one of those types of guys. 410 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: I've gotta say football players just because I've been through it. 411 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: I know exactly what those guys go through. It's a 412 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 1: lot of hitting every single play. But man, those those 413 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,640 Speaker 1: damn hockey guys. Man, I lost my frontals for I can't. 414 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 1: I can't, I can't deal with this. I gotta go football. 415 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: Uh no, no, no, no no. We were in the mouth 416 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: guard all the time. You know, Vitave wasn't wearing a 417 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: moth guard. Mike, you weren't wearing a moth guard in 418 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 1: the spring game, Peter, the bad news. Now now you're 419 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: going to incur the wrath of boxing and Mma Twitter, 420 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: who are going to come in out of the dressing 421 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: room and you're screwed too, just like I wouldn't mess 422 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: with Tidmi, Bob Probert, Alia, Frady, Claude Lemieux, look out, 423 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: Claud lemie might be the toughest player to ever played 424 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 1: My message, Mario though hot take. I will Naro Lemieux maybe, 425 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: but not Claude lemiev Um. Tom Pella Sero is gonna 426 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: be on the show, right, He's a Minnesota guy. Would 427 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 1: be very curious to hear that's hockey country what it is. 428 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 1: Thoughts are on this too as well. Might be that 429 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: was a good round and you are you out? We 430 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 1: now welcome to the show a man who has won 431 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: three Super Bowls as a vice president of player personnel 432 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 1: with the New England Patriots. He's been a general manager elsewhere, 433 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 1: and now he is on the NFL Network with slides 434 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 1: and gentlemen, let's welcome back Scott pe Morning. Everyone, Happy Tuesday. 435 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday's right unless you're an LA Rams fan. As 436 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 1: they Rams wake up this morning. They are currently still 437 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: in the playoff position, but they have lost three straight games. 438 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 1: They look out of sorts, and with all of the 439 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 1: moves that they've made this season, there clearly were higher 440 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: aspirations when they made those deals at the trade deadline. 441 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: So a few weeks ago, we asked you, if you 442 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,880 Speaker 1: are still a believer in this Rams team. Two more losses, 443 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 1: what do you got to say? Now? You know, Peter, 444 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: you asked me right as they were making those changes 445 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: to their roster, and I said at the time that 446 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: the jury was out because I wasn't sure what they 447 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: were going to be as they added those pieces. Since 448 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 1: they've added those pieces, meaning ob j and von Miller 449 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: there O and three, And we've talked about this before, 450 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: whereas you can add talent to your team, but your 451 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: talent has to fit. This is a team game that 452 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: matters is on relationships and chemistry and people doing things together. 453 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: So right now, they won so many games at the beginning, 454 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: right they were seven and one before they acquired these 455 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: two players and lost the three straight. At seven and one, 456 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,360 Speaker 1: they're likely going to be a playoff team. They did 457 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,439 Speaker 1: enough at the beginning of the season. They have a 458 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: somewhat friendly schedule coming up at the end run, so 459 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: I do expect them to win or you know, make 460 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: the players possibly win the division. But to me, the 461 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,679 Speaker 1: bigger issue is I don't see them as a championship 462 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:31,919 Speaker 1: football team right now. I see them a team with 463 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: a lot of star power names, but not necessarily a 464 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,879 Speaker 1: championship football team. So I'm still not sold in all 465 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 1: in on the Rams. How about the same of the 466 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 1: NFCA that has both Scott. Let's talk about the Buccaneers. 467 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 1: You've said this before. It doesn't matter if you have 468 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 1: Tom Brady. You can't just run the same team out there. 469 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 1: You can't just run it back and expect to win 470 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. You gotta get better, you gotta evolve. 471 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: When you look at this Bucks team that just had 472 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: a great win over the Colts, who is a player 473 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,400 Speaker 1: somewhere in their roster who has made a huge improvements 474 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 1: from last year and could be the difference in this 475 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: year's team. Kyle, to me, it's Leonard Fournette, right, He's 476 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: been playoff Lenny. Last year he was playoff Lenny. He 477 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: had a better playoff season than he did a regular season. 478 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 1: His rookie year with the Jacksonville Jaguars, he was better 479 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: in their playoff run up to the AFC Championship Game 480 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: than he was in the regular season. But this year, 481 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: Leonard Fournette is coming along as a better player. He's 482 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: in the top fifteen in the NFL in terms of 483 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 1: rushing but most importantly what he is he's number three 484 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: overall in terms of running backs in the number of 485 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: receptions that he has, So he's again become a really 486 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: important weapon for Tom Brady and the importance of a 487 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 1: running back and the Tom Brady passing game where it 488 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: enables Tom to drop and dump things off, is critical. 489 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: So what you can see is they've developed chemistry, and 490 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,640 Speaker 1: chemistry hit the leader, Tom Brady on offense is so important. 491 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 1: So to me, Leonard Fournette has been an important part 492 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,400 Speaker 1: of this offense continuing to move forward where they've had 493 00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: some other issues. Yes, Scott, I've said Leonard Fournette. I 494 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,479 Speaker 1: think he's the glue to this offense. He can do 495 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 1: it all, and he helps this offense be versatile enough 496 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 1: to be able to play any game that an opposing 497 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,239 Speaker 1: defense presents to him. But yesterday we asked what was 498 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 1: the most impressive part of the Patriots resurgence from their 499 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,120 Speaker 1: seven and nine twenty twenty season and now, how would 500 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 1: you answer that question, Mike rob I would say that 501 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: it's the way that this collection of players from the 502 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:30,120 Speaker 1: outside has come together as a team. Again. They brought 503 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 1: in a lot of pieces in parts very similar, a 504 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: little bit different, but similar to what we did in 505 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 1: two thousand and one. But we signed a lot of 506 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 1: free agents. They brought in a lot of very good 507 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 1: players that really didn't have relationships with one another, didn't 508 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: know one another, They weren't sure where the leadership was 509 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,679 Speaker 1: coming from. They knew it was good to me McCardy. 510 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: They knew it was gonna be High Tower. They weren't 511 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: so sure if it was gonna be mac Jones. They 512 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: knew it was going to be Andrews on the offensive line. 513 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 1: These guys have come together and it was interesting. I 514 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: was up there for several days in training this year 515 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: and watched the team. I saw the talent, I saw 516 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: the relationship. I saw the guys interacting me myself. This 517 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 1: might be something pretty interesting to watch if they can 518 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: get on our role this year, and they've done that 519 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 1: so to me, the collection of the players from the 520 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 1: outside that have come together reminds me of a lot 521 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 1: of teams that again are better as a sum than 522 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: the individual parts opposite of a team. We were just 523 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: talking about mm Well, said Paoli. I want to talk 524 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,199 Speaker 1: about Sean O'Hara. If you know Shan O'Hara, he's like 525 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: the most pleasant, affable man on the planet. So I 526 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: was very amused when he was on our show last 527 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 1: week and he was in as a co host and 528 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: he read real Beef. He had a real issue with 529 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers with quarterbacks giving away too much information about 530 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: their injuries. And then the next day we came back 531 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: and we were laughing because Aaron Rodgers propped his foot. 532 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: We do have to see that. I don't. I don't 533 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,120 Speaker 1: need to see it, Okay, So he puts his bare 534 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 1: foot up to the camera which everyone has seen, to 535 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 1: give us a step at us in details on his toe. 536 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 1: What is your take on quarterbacks being so vocal about 537 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 1: their injuries. Sorry, that threw me awful. I didn't know 538 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 1: if that was toe cheese or cheese kurds he had 539 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 1: on that footage anyway, So I'm with Shawn O'Hara one 540 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: on this, I couldn't agree with them more because there's 541 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 1: a lot of quarterbacks it seems their injury information is 542 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: getting out either through them directly in the case of 543 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, or their camp. But it also seems like 544 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,640 Speaker 1: there's a lot of players where that information, their injury issues, 545 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 1: their circumstances are coming out more and more this year. 546 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: I remember when I was first in the NFL with Belichick. 547 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 1: You know, when we started at the Cleveland Browns, and 548 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 1: it was like top secret information. No one could talk 549 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: about injuries. It was taboo. No one talked about injuries. 550 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:49,959 Speaker 1: But it was never said as to why we couldn't 551 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 1: talk about injuries. It was just you don't talk about injuries, 552 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: so you don't do it. A couple of years later, 553 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 1: I started to notice that there was this group of 554 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 1: coaches and people who believe in not talking about injuries, 555 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 1: and it all kind of came in the Parcels tree. 556 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 1: But when I was with Parcels in ninety eight ninety nine, 557 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: he explained it, and his feeling was this that if 558 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: a player was talking about injuries, he was trying to 559 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 1: do one of two things. He was either trying to 560 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,719 Speaker 1: protect himself in case he failed. So if he didn't 561 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 1: play well, of course he didn't play well because it 562 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 1: was an injury. But if he played injured and he 563 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 1: was successful, well, then he was some sort of superhero 564 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,439 Speaker 1: and he was bigger and better than the rest of 565 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 1: the team and separating himself from the team. And it 566 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 1: was something that Parcels really didn't like because it was 567 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 1: about the individual trying to protect himself or elevate themselves. 568 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: So I'm a big believer and come from that camp 569 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: that injuries shouldn't be talked about because really it becomes 570 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 1: about self more than the team. Yeah, it's true, all right. 571 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 1: Today is the fiftieth anniversary of the release of one 572 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: of the greatest movies of all time, Brian's Song. Earlier 573 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: in the show We Played, We In or We Out? 574 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:58,399 Speaker 1: So let's ask you a question, Scott. Brian's song is 575 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: the greatest football movie ever made? We in a In? 576 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Brian's Song? Yet fifty years ago 577 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,399 Speaker 1: today it was released one of the greatest football films 578 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 1: or the greatest football film of all times? Got a 579 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,919 Speaker 1: lit it up here. Brian Piccolo, who unfortunately succumbed to cancer, 580 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:21,160 Speaker 1: was a teammate of Gail Sayers. They had this incredible relationship. 581 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 1: It was in the late sixties early seventies when race 582 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: issues were at a boiling point and they came together 583 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 1: and this story, this movie, you know, with James Kahn. 584 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: I don't care how many football movies come out. Brian's 585 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 1: Song is the best football movie of all time. James Kahn, 586 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 1: Billy D Williams as the great Gail Sayers, one of 587 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 1: the greatest films nineteen seventy one, Scott, Let's celebrate Brian's 588 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: Song today. Let's celebrate you as well. Great job on 589 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 1: the show. I was all, thanks, everybody, have a great week, Jake. 590 00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 1: And look at the AFC playoff picture of the Ravens 591 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: at the top, just barely. They've got those Titans and 592 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 1: the Patriots nipping at their heels. Shreets, what steams out 593 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: to you? Here? Quickly? The thing that stands out of 594 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 1: the Dolphins are suddenly back in the picture after we 595 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 1: buried them to be dead at the end of the 596 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: October more wattle talk. We love it. Back to you, 597 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 1: Which of the top teams in the AFC do you 598 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: trust the most? Right now? When it comes down to it, 599 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: if you're telling me we've got this team versus any 600 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 1: other team, I'm still taking this team. It's to Kansas 601 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: City Chiefs. And I know you might roll your eyes 602 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: and said, well, what about the first twelve weeks of 603 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: the season. I know, but when it gets to January, 604 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: I know Mahomes has done it, I know Andy's done it, 605 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,719 Speaker 1: and I know that Tyreek killing Travis Kelsey are going 606 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: to be a problem for whatever defense. So as much 607 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: as I respect what the Patriots are up to it 608 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 1: as much as I love Josh allenen are at their 609 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 1: best in January, who do I trust? Right now? You 610 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 1: have to beat the Chiefs before I can pick you 611 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 1: to be the team in January. Still going Kansas City 612 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: and then the Champs. I want to say the Buffalo 613 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 1: Bills so bad. Oh. I want to say the Bills, 614 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: but I can't. My football eyes would not allow me 615 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: to say to Buffalo Bills. So I gotta go the 616 00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens. And I know you guys ought there to 617 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 1: look at it. Let me saying, Lamar Jackson just through 618 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: four interceptions, but guess what, they still won the damn game, right? 619 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: They play great complimentary football. I think Greg Roman is 620 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: going to have a plan, a rushing plan for later 621 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 1: on in the season. Lamar Jackson, yes, he's been the 622 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 1: top running back for this team, but great Roman has 623 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: also giving them tools in the passing game. Right, you 624 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: better cover Mark Andrews. That's the guy that he's always 625 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: gonna throw the football too. And defensively, they showed me 626 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 1: in this last game that they can be dominant defensively 627 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: and win a game strictly off their defense. I think 628 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: it's the Baltimore Ravens and people, you know, you may say, oh, 629 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson throwing the ball didn't always uh you know, 630 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 1: and always putting the ball in the right place, but 631 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: it's the unpredictability of the way that he plays that 632 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: gives defenses fits. Lamar retweeted at Mimia said a picture 633 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: of him throwing with the caption bleep it. Mark anders 634 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 1: is out there somewhere, he retweeted, which is funny. I 635 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: like the Bills too, but they haven't earned the trust 636 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: right now. I'm gonna with a one in three team. 637 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: They're not gonna Patriots. It's about when you play and 638 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: in this crazy AFC, if everything's nuts. I just always 639 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: looked the two things, head coach defense, head coach defense. 640 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 1: I'm going with the Patriots. They're the number one scoring defense. Peter. 641 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: All the virtues you extolled about the Chiefs, if I've 642 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 1: been there in January, like I got your buddy and 643 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 1: Chiefs Patriots FFC title games sounds pretty tasty to me. 644 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: Patriots right now, six game winning streak, defense, Belichick can't 645 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: beat it. So true. Let's take a look at the 646 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: NFC guys and the current standings. How it shakes out. 647 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: It looks like a three team race for the one 648 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: series in the NFC. The Cardinals will come out of 649 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: there by. They have a half game leon the Packers 650 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: and sit a game up on Tampa right now, Shrigs, 651 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: who do you trust them as? I'm going green Bay. 652 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: I'm going with Rogers. He's playing with nine toes right 653 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: now and it still looks amazing. And they're so injured, 654 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 1: they have so many bang up players and they still 655 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 1: win every week. They're only getting healthier. Buccaneers are, of course, 656 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: there's vending champions to get. Rogers and Green Bay haven't 657 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: even seen their best days yet. They don't even have 658 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 1: their healthiest lineup and they're still winning games against good teams. Yeah, 659 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: I'm picking Green Bay as well. How Come I don't 660 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 1: trust theirs on a cardinal I don't know what. I 661 00:31:58,240 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: don't know why I don't trust They won two or 662 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: three without Kyler and DeAndre went up and I still 663 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: don't trust them. Weird up like the Green Bay Packers. 664 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 1: Zero playoff experience, but sometimes you don't even need it. Listen, 665 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: I have a tough time fun. But the reason why 666 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: I trust the Packers more than the Bucks I just can't. 667 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: I can't get there. I mean, they're great. They may 668 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: be met in the NFC title game again. Packers figure 669 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: out a way every year to mess things up. And 670 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers, I still think, are a son and they're 671 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 1: getting health here. I mean it's Tampa, it's stock, it's chalk, 672 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 1: but it's Tampa, Arizona, I know. And Chief's Patriots. Yeah, 673 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 1: fans hit us up at three. I am with you 674 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 1: two out of three. They haven't messed it up in 675 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: the playoffs. We haven't seen that. You don't know what 676 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 1: you don't know? Oh yeah? People really excited about our 677 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: next guest.

Cool Man, cool Man. 683 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 1: Glad that you could be a part of the should 684 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 1: this morning. Now, I've been a part of some great 685 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: Russian attacks, a block for Frank Gore, Marshal Lynch amongst 686 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 1: some others. You're part of one now with Jonathan Taylor. 687 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 1: But what kind of role do you bring to the 688 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: cold ground attack every Sunday every Sunday. You know, I 689 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: feel like I'm a dynamic playmaker, a little bit different 690 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: than j T. Where you know, he's the bruiser. You know, 691 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: I'm the one that you know is a lightning so 692 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 1: to speak. And you know, just watching JT and the 693 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 1: season has happened to have been great. But you know, 694 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 1: also for me, you know, my job is to make 695 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: sure the offense to see fishing when JT comes out, 696 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 1: and you know, I think I've been doing a good 697 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 1: job of that so far. Naim loves seeing you. Welcome 698 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 1: to the show where all wearing these hoodies at least 699 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 1: we have him here at the breakfast table. So can't 700 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: wait to talk about your work with Muscular District Association. 701 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: And I've talked about this extensively throughout the years, and 702 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 1: we'll get to that in a bit. But Jonathan Taylor, 703 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,080 Speaker 1: your teammate, He's put the league on notice, leading the 704 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 1: NFL and rushing guards and rushing touchdowns. Where does Taylor 705 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 1: belong in the MVP race Because, like I'll tell you now, 706 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 1: his quarterbacks seem to be running towards it, they're running 707 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 1: away from it. You know, JT fits right in the conversation. 708 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 1: You know, I'm like, like I said before the season, 709 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,319 Speaker 1: you know, Jat's going for the league and notice he's 710 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 1: thinking that next step and we're all watching it. You know, 711 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 1: I'm happy to be a building and help him do that. 712 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,400 Speaker 1: But you know, I think Dat's running away with it, 713 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,400 Speaker 1: you know, if he can keep going with the momentum 714 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 1: is having. I mean, they say the QBS, what they say, 715 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 1: quarterback is an MVP award, But you know, I don't 716 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 1: really think so. I think any position win in if 717 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:35,720 Speaker 1: any position to win it, I think JAS can definitely 718 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 1: win it. Moment What a guy, What a teammate. You 719 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: nearly are the whole package. JT's running himself into this 720 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 1: conversation very very often too. Sometimes now he might have 721 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 1: to tell people what this is. You know what this is. 722 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 1: This is the A receptor you know it? Uh, the 723 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: reality show that you're involved with this year right now, 724 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 1: Hard Knocks even had a clip when we showed up 725 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 1: on the Colts offensive meeting room.
