1 00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: The volume. What is going on everybody? How are we doing? 2 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,760 Speaker 1: I am I'm excited to be here, well, given this 3 00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:23,279 Speaker 1: is my house, but I'm excited to be talking about 4 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 1: football because that's what we do. I did a podcast 5 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: yesterday with Colin, so you can find that on his 6 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: YouTube channel. You can find that wherever you listen to podcasts, Apple, Spotify, 7 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:35,919 Speaker 1: you guys know the drill. So I did not do 8 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 1: anything on the three and Out podcast feed channel. But 9 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: I'm excited to talk a little ball today because Sean 10 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: Payton had some comments that I went, wow, he's not kidding. 11 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: He loves this team. A lot of positive momentum, kind 12 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 1: of a little different vibe right now in Chicago. So 13 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 1: we'll dive into those two teams, which Colin and I 14 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: have talked a lot about the young quarterback, so I 15 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 1: kind of want to piggyback of what we've been discussing. 16 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: And then I was looking today on the DraftKings app. 17 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: There's one team I've been a hit on betting on 18 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: the divisional futures today and I got four bets that 19 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: I really like. One is one of my favorite bets 20 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: on the board. So we'll do some of this leading 21 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: up to the season, but I do want to hammer 22 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: on some future bets as we kind of work our 23 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: way into week one and today we will do some 24 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: divisional winners. So I love to gamble. I saw a 25 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,960 Speaker 1: story today that talked about love to gamble, I mean 26 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 1: betting on yourself. This guy will dive into it. This 27 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: guy turned down a lot of money from Zuckerberg to 28 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: run his AI operation. That was just just an incredible 29 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: eye opener. It's like Jesus, this is insane. But before 30 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: we dive into any football and Sean Paige, you know, 31 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you about my friends, my partners in 32 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: the official ticketing app of this podcast. I'm not a 33 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: big fomo guy. I'm really not, but I saw something 34 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 1: this weekend that gave me fomo more. Wallen is doing 35 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: a little stadium tour sell it out left and right. 36 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: He was in San Francisco this well, actually San Jose 37 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,959 Speaker 1: playing Levi's Friday Night. He walked out with Barry Bonds 38 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: and Steve Young and the place went nuts. You know, 39 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 1: I think Barry sixty one and Steve sixty three, they 40 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,119 Speaker 1: look fantastic. I don't know. I will die to look 41 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: like they do in their sixties. But then then Saturday, 42 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: I was like, God, that's pretty cool. He walked out 43 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 1: with George Kittle, who's slamming beers, and Trent Williams. So 44 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: if you want to go see Morgan Wallen, he's on 45 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 1: his big tour this offseason or I guess this summer. 46 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: It's not. Some people are in season if you're a 47 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: baseball player, But if you want to go check that out. 48 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 1: You can search by concert venue, you can search by artists. 49 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: It does not get any easier. Obviously, football is right 50 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: around the corner. If you want to go to a 51 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: college game, if you want to go to a pro game, 52 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: there are some incredible early season college matchups.

You know 62 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: It's funny when you when you have a young son 63 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: on the way, you start thinking about life a little 64 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: bit differently. You start thinking like what am I going 65 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: to do to raise this child the right way? And 66 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: you start thinking of all these different angles of like 67 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: how am I going to instill confidence? How am I 68 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: going to give this young man the belief in himself 69 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: to go take on the world, to go follow and 70 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: chase your dreams, Because chasing your dreams and doing something 71 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: big in life take some confidence. Like it's hard to 72 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: do things in life when you are young, and I'm 73 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: talking in your teens, in your twenties, hell in your thirties, 74 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: without older people accomplish people, people that you look up 75 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: to that believe in you. That is a very very 76 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: powerful thing. I know that just speaking from my own experience, 77 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: I've been very lucky to have people believe in me 78 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: throughout my life, starting with my parents, leading into my 79 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: professional career. Sitting here right now, to have Colin Coward, 80 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: who is I would say, as big of a champion 81 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: for myself and you know, a guy that has you know, 82 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: been behind me and led the way that I couldn't 83 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: pay like I can't even quantify what that has meant 84 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: to me personally, professionally, and I'm sure many people listening 85 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 1: right no matter what industry you're in, people that kind 86 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: of show you the way that have done it, that 87 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 1: have accomplished things that you want to accomplish, is a 88 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 1: powerful thing because confidence as a young person can come 89 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: and go, and it's very very easy to lose. It's 90 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: the older you get, the more experiences you have, the 91 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: more things you've seen. It was harder to really rattle 92 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: a thirty eight year old Peyton Manning, a forty one 93 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: year old Tom Brady, like Jeff Bezos, Phil Knight, some 94 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: of these guys, they've seen some shit. So even a 95 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: quote unquote bad business like pretty easy to kind of 96 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: shrug your shoulders, dust yourself off, and come back swinging. 97 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: Obviously for those guys a lot of cash, but you 98 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 1: know what I mean, And when you're twenty three, twenty five, 99 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: twenty eight, like, your life experiences, even if you've seen 100 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: some shit, are nowhere near what a lot of people 101 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: that are older than you. When Sean Payton is, you know, 102 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: one of the more accomplished coaches in the NFL. He's 103 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 1: won a Super Bowl, he is widely considered one of 104 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,919 Speaker 1: the best offensive minds of his generation. And let's face it, 105 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: he's kind of a no nonsense, no bullshit guy. Now 106 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 1: he's a big talker, big bravado, kind of cocky, but 107 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: I don't think he just throws out things if he 108 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: does not believe him. And he had some comments today 109 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 1: that made me go, whoa one. Just he's clearly a 110 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: big believer in his team. He thinks they are going 111 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: to be really good. Last year they won ten games. 112 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: This year, they obviously have higher expectations and definitely starts 113 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: with him and he said that I've coached six teams 114 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: that I thought could win the Super Bowl, to the 115 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: championship games, some to the playoffs. This is my seventh 116 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: team that I think has that. So he believes in 117 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,359 Speaker 1: his career that this Denver Bronco team is as good 118 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 1: as some of those Saints teams obviously won won a 119 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, he has countless others that got back to 120 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: conference championship games and had a team that was just 121 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,799 Speaker 1: peppering playoff bursts on a yearly basis throughout the twenty tens. 122 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: So he knows what a really good team looks like. 123 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 1: But you can't be a really good team. I don't 124 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: care how good your defense is, and let's face the 125 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: Denver's defense is awesome. I don't care how good your 126 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: offensive line is. Their offensive line is really good. Their 127 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: skill positions. I think they feel a lot better about 128 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: their skill group this year than they did last year, 129 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: especially a running back. But you can't do it without 130 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: a quarterback. And I think sometimes in the NFL, like 131 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 1: we've seen a lot of story, especially now that a 132 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: lot of these player podcasts, and you know, older players 133 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: have voices and guys talk about their experiences, and guys 134 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: that have had really, really good careers, they say early on, 135 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: like I don't know if that offensive coordinator really loved me. 136 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: You know, I got drafted here, but the defensive scheme 137 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: did not fit my skill set. And then the position 138 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: coach turned on me. He didn't think I was any good. 139 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: It was just weird vibes. It wasn't until I got 140 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: to coach X. It wasn't until I got to organization 141 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: Y that I thought, Okay, these guys believe in me. 142 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,239 Speaker 1: I believe in myself, and we're off to the races 143 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: and I can thrive. Some people are lucky enough to 144 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: go to a place, and that place and that coach 145 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: are all in on that guy. We've the best example 146 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: in recent I would say NFL history would be Patrick 147 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: Mahomes and Andy Reid. Patrick Mahomes couldn't have, you know, 148 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: written a script to get him to a place better 149 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 1: than the Chiefs. And Andy Reid's belief in him, the 150 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: organization's belief in him, and it's been perfect, and they've 151 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: had borderline unprecedented success for like six years, right at least, 152 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: you know, non Patriots. But a lot of guys, you know, 153 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: go to places where it's like, ah, the GM wanted me, 154 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: the coach didn't, or the coach wanted me, but the 155 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: organization is not a big believer. The owner is kind 156 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,119 Speaker 1: of on the fence. Happens all the nime. And here's 157 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: the thing, Sean Payton. Next year, Drew Brees is Hall 158 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: of Fame eligible. I got a news flash. He's going 159 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: to walk right into the Hall of Fame. He is 160 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: going to be a first ballot Hall of Famer. So 161 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: Sean Payton's got a pretty good idea what a really 162 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: good quarterback looks like. And Sean Payton said this to 163 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,559 Speaker 1: Charles Robinson of Yahoo that I went damn. He doesn't 164 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: like this guy. He freaking loves him. This is Sean 165 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: Payton on bow Knicks. He's going to be one of 166 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: the top four or five quarterbacks in the NFL in 167 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: the next two years. That's what we're seeing right now. 168 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: He doesn't take sacks. He's got an exceptional arm. He 169 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 1: threw the longest ball of the season last year at 170 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: sixty seven are yards against Cincinnati. He can run, he 171 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: can throw it in funny body angles. Sean Payton's all 172 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: in on this guy. He told you last year. I 173 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 1: think there's a decent chance that will never know because 174 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: it's easy to do the exercise when you draft tenth 175 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 1: or fifteenth or twentieth to go, we would have taken 176 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: this guy number one. He was our favorite player in 177 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,319 Speaker 1: the draft. That gets said a lot, and it's easy 178 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: to say. It's easy to justify. We love this guy. 179 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: He's one of our favorite players. But if I put 180 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos last year at number one, I'm not 181 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: saying it's a lock that bo Nicks goes number one, 182 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 1: but I think there's a decent chance that Sean Payton, 183 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: who gives zero Fox And I also think it's easier 184 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:29,199 Speaker 1: the older you get is accomplished as you are. And 185 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: let's face it, financially it helps. Like he's got a 186 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 1: lot of money in the bank right now. He's not 187 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: worried about perception on the outside because we saw a 188 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: couple of years ago he couldn't stand Russell Wilson and 189 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: it was easy for him to turn on him because 190 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: that wasn't his guy. He definitely didn't sign him. And 191 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: one thing that you see right there, and I heard 192 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: Diana Russini say this, she knows Sean really well. He 193 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 1: hates when guys hates it takes sex. Like that's not 194 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: a pet peeve with him. That's like a deal breaker. 195 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: He's out on you. We all know people that like, 196 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 1: if you do something, do cross them, whether it's personally, 197 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: whether it's our friend, whether it's someone we work with, 198 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 1: Like you're done, you're dead to them, right And some 199 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: people it's like, God, just take a deep breath. They're 200 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: not that bad, Like give them another chance. But some 201 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: people we all know these people. I'm not necessarily like this, 202 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: but I know some people that are like this. I've 203 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: definitely worked around some people that are like this. They 204 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: just won't give you another chance, and it was clear 205 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 1: early on in that season Russell Wilson was dead to 206 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 1: Sean Payton, and he was lucky the owner had a 207 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: lot of money, didn't care and let him do whatever 208 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 1: you want, and he punted. But now he's all in 209 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: on this kid. And listen, this guy like for a 210 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 1: long college career, saw some stuff and he's got some 211 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,959 Speaker 1: scars and you know, just some He's gone through a 212 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 1: lot of adversity. Like he's got a unique background and 213 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: track record of adversity for a young player. I would 214 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: say the same thing for Michael PENNOCKX. They're your typical 215 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: Like Caleb Williams basically showed up to college. Everyone was 216 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 1: on their knees saying, do you want to blow where 217 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: you want a handy? And then for the next three 218 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: years he got unl limited money. No one could stop 219 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 1: talking about him, and it's been a little hard for 220 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: him and he got Ben Johnson now saying like, yeah, 221 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: this a lot going on here. He just said yesterday 222 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: our practice was so sloppy. I expect more at this 223 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: point in time in camp. Ben Johnson a couple of 224 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: weeks ago said, I think like there are three or 225 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: four days in the camp. There really isn't a ton 226 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 1: of carryover from what Caleb was asked to do from 227 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: a play call standpoint or anything of that nature before. 228 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: I mean, he's always been very comfortable as a shotgun quarterback, 229 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: going back to college and even last year, he's very 230 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: comfortable in the two minutes. He's very comfortable with tempo plays, 231 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: and so now we're asking him to be a little 232 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: more structured in terms of the play call. Sometimes there's 233 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 1: multiple calls, you know, there's shifts, there's motions, there's more 234 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 1: going on mentally than probably there's ever been for him. 235 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: And so at this point this thing will start slowing 236 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 1: down and he's going to be able to catch up 237 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: and his physical ability will take him over from there. 238 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: But right now, because mentally it is what it is, 239 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: he's playing a little bit slower, and obviously there are 240 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: a ton of clips with Caleb just being completely overwhelmed, 241 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: whether it's in team drills or inaccurate. I don't know 242 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 1: if Caleb's going to be a star as of right now. 243 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: I would bet against it. But I do know the 244 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 1: power of confidence, and I know the power of belief. 245 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: And just because you get pick number one once you 246 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: go through the season in which he did, and now 247 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: you get the opposite of this coach coming in who's like, 248 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,439 Speaker 1: I know my shit works. Even if I got to 249 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 1: change my offense a little bit to try to bring 250 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: out some of your strengths that are different from Jared Goff, 251 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: my offense is predicated getting rid of the football, fast, 252 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: reading the defense, and getting rid of the rock. I 253 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: think there are some parallels with Ben Johnson's success in 254 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 1: Detroit and the way Sean Payton likes to run his offense. 255 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: Even if I'm going to be open minded and make 256 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: some changes, bo Nix is a lot different player than 257 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:58,079 Speaker 1: Drew Brees. You can use some running attribute attributes of 258 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: Bo into your playbook you wouldn't have with with with 259 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: Drew Brees, just like you can with Caleb Williams that 260 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 1: you couldn't have with Jared Goff. But there are some 261 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: non negotiables. There are some fucking deal breakers, and that's 262 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: holding onto the ball, taking sacks and ruining the flow 263 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 1: of the offense. You have to play within the play call. 264 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: It's one thing Russell Wilson could never really do. The 265 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: difference is for like four or five years with Russell Wilson. 266 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: He was one of the most incredible playmakers in the 267 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: history of the NFL, and then as athleticism kind of dipped. 268 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: He clearly didn't want to take hits and he wanted 269 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: to dominate from within the pocket. He couldn't do it, 270 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: and all these offensive coordinators are turn on the guy. 271 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: So I think when you look at John Payton, it's 272 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,439 Speaker 1: easy to have confidence in believe a lot of gms 273 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: and coaches do when they make the draft pick. But 274 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 1: you eventually then got a play right and become a 275 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: good player, and for them to believe in you, I 276 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 1: have to see it. I'll never forget like the Brock 277 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: Purty experience where I knew, like Trey Lance was done 278 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:01,679 Speaker 1: because the star players didn't believe in him, Trent Williams, Deebo, Samuel, 279 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 1: Fred Warren, Er, George Kittle. Yet when Brock came in, 280 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,200 Speaker 1: all those guys, all their chips were in the middle 281 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: of the table. Was like, I'm telling you, guys have 282 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: no c You guys don't understand how good this guy is. 283 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 1: They were the ones saying it. Oftentimes coaches will say 284 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: it because clearly like they need to instill this confidence. 285 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: But when you hear it from the players, when you 286 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: hear it, when you hear it from the team, especially 287 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: a team full of like accomplished guys, like they're not 288 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: bullshitting with you. You know. It's the thing with Justin 289 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: Jefferson about JJ McCarthy's like, yeah, he's got some work 290 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: to do, which of course he does, has some work 291 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: to do, but like sometimes work to do doesn't ever 292 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: turn into a good player. And I listen, I told it. 293 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: I said this to Colin yesterday because in the history 294 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: of the league, you know, if you have four first 295 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: round quarterbacks or five first round quarterbacks, there's never been six. 296 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: We know the percentages of first round players that hit, 297 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: it's around fifty percent. And when it comes to quarterbacks, 298 00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: obviously there was an awful year in twenty twenty one 299 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: where they all flopped except Trevor Lawrence, and that's still 300 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: a work in progress. He's just a highly paid guy. 301 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: But you know, Zach Wilson, Trey Lance, Justin Fields, Mac Jones, 302 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: they've all been on countless team since that is more 303 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: of an outlier from a negative standpoint, but typically, like 304 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 1: not all these guys are going to the Pro Bowl, 305 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: and Jayden Daniels is gonna be good Like c J. 306 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: Stroud had a down year. We all know he's good, 307 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: you know, Jayden Daniels, even if he doesn't have like 308 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: an all Pro year, I think he's gonna be a 309 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: good player. Like he's not. It's not a whiff, Like 310 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: he's going to be a good player in the NFL 311 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: for a while. Bo Nicks this, this is real, like 312 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: it's not. Now. How good is he Sean Payton top 313 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: four or five quarterback in the league. I don't know, 314 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: but I know he's gonna be good. Why because his 315 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: head coach where offense is his baby, on a team 316 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 1: with a loaded, bugging defense and now clearly like a winning, 317 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: high level culture. Like it's gonna work. I would say, 318 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: Mike vrabel Drake may like kind of betting on that. Again. 319 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: Do I think he's gonna be a top seven quarterback. 320 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: I wouldn't go that far, but I think he's gonna 321 00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: be a solid player in the NFL. Some of the 322 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 1: other guys are gonna JJ McCarthy, Caleb Williams, Michael Pennix. 323 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: I like Michael Pennix the most out of the next 324 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: three guys. Like I love Michael pennis in college, but 325 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: like I just bet against Atlanta. You know, I know 326 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: we got Drake London toss and Rahee Morris in practice 327 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: to the ground when he's trying to jam at the 328 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. But like fifty percent hit, Like if 329 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: Jaden and Bow are hits, you got to pick one 330 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: of the next four guys. And I don't know, gets 331 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: a little iffy quick. But Sean Payton's belief, his confidence, 332 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 1: he can't even fake it. Where Ben Johnson and listen, 333 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: he's a new coach. You come in and the pressure 334 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 1: Like sometimes in practice, there are certain things that happen 335 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: in training camp that would mean nothing to me. You 336 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: could tell me Travis Kelcey dropped every pass he had 337 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: twelve targets in practice during group and team You couldn't 338 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: even write. If you wrote that as a headline, I'd 339 00:16:55,320 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: be like, who cares? Joe Burrow threw five picks in practice. 340 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: Who gives a shit? Right? But there are stuff going 341 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 1: on in practice, like when Ben Johnson is talking about 342 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: it and these videos come out, you're like Jesus, And 343 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: it's the opposite with Bo Nicks in Denver. It also 344 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: shows you and listen in fairness to Caleb, and who 345 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: knows whether he would have been good or you know, 346 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: some star regardless where he went. But it does matter 347 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: where you go who's coaching you. It's like remember those 348 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: quotes in that book app excerpt about Caleb and his 349 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: dad who wanted to go to Kevin o'condall. They wanted 350 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: to go to an offensive infrastructure and a guy that 351 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 1: knew what he was doing and said, they got Eberflus 352 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 1: And now they got this guy that you know. I 353 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: think hoping this works out, but if it doesn't, he'll pivot, 354 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: He'll get another quarterback. Pro golfers drive for show and 355 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 1: but for some dough.

We haven't 384 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: talked much about this upcoming season in terms of odds. 385 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 1: Obviously we'll talk about Week one and definitely the college 386 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 1: football Week one. I've already looked at that slate. I'm 387 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,919 Speaker 1: pretty excited about three or four of the games. But 388 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: I thought some future stuff, whether it's you know, Rookie 389 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 1: of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, MVP over unders, 390 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: what we'll get into. But today I was looking at Uh, 391 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 1: this is why I love to gamble. I mean, I 392 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: saw a story today that just excited me. We'll get 393 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: into that after we do this, but it's like, I 394 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: love gambling so much, and I did this last year, 395 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 1: and I talked out of the Chargers, and of course 396 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: they made the playoffs. You get them four to one. Hew, 397 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: the Broncos are like eight to one to make the playoffs. 398 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,640 Speaker 1: So you can get some pretty tasty odds in August 399 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 1: on teams if you like them, either to make the 400 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 1: playoffs or to win the division. And one team that 401 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: I think is a lock. Like sometimes you don't get 402 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: good odds, like for twenty years the Patriots, you are 403 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:26,160 Speaker 1: getting good odds. The Chiefs play in the toughest division 404 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: in football, and they're the only team out of the 405 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: Ravens Bills that have plus odds, but still it's like 406 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: the Chiefs win it every year. Their odds are plus 407 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: one fifty right now. You know, the Ravens I think 408 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: were like minus two hundred and the Bills who have 409 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: won it like six straight years? Now are you got 410 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 1: to bet like three hundred and thirty dollars to win 411 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: one hundred? So it's like, yeah, I'm not betting on those. 412 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: I do think the Houston Texans, who are clearly the 413 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 1: best team in that division, who have won this division 414 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: two years in a row with CJ and Demico as 415 00:20:56,119 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: head coaching quarterback, they have a chance right there with 416 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: Denver to have one of, if not the best defense 417 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: in the NFL. You would think that offensively, they were 418 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 1: clearly out of whack last year. The offensive line was terrible, 419 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: the play calling was awful. That they can flip it 420 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 1: around a little bit and just have more cohesion on 421 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 1: offense and just have a better EBB and flow to 422 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: their play calling, because as the season went on, you're 423 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: watching like what is Bobby Slowick doing, and what he 424 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 1: was doing was getting ready to get fired, and that's 425 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 1: what happened. But I think the Houston Texans at plus 426 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: one to ten, Like there is a few locks, right, 427 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: especially in the AFC, Like the Chiefs. Let's face it, 428 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 1: I mean it got a little harder last year even 429 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: though they won fifteen games. They're gonna have a year 430 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,360 Speaker 1: and they might go on a fifteen year run, right, 431 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: assuming Andy's healthy and can coach that they could have 432 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 1: another six seven years of winning at a high level. 433 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 1: One of those years they might not win the division. 434 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 1: Happened to the Patriots the year Tom Brady got hurt. 435 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: They still won eleven games. They lost the division. One year. 436 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: You could win twelve and a team in your division 437 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: win thirteen. It could happen, right to me. The Ravens like, 438 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,120 Speaker 1: it's not crazy. If everything went right for the Bengals 439 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: and they had another incredible offensive year, maybe they could 440 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: win twelve assuming Trey comes back, everything works right, and 441 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 1: the Steelers the defense is unreal. You win eleven twelve games, 442 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 1: like it's foresee. The Bills like, no chance. They don't 443 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,159 Speaker 1: want to. That would be the biggest shocking probably in 444 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 1: the league. Like the Bills feel like a lock to 445 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 1: win the division. I just look at the Houston Texans 446 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: and I go the Indianapolis Colts today put out that 447 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:33,439 Speaker 1: it's Anthony Richson or Daniel Jones at quarterback. Anytime you 448 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 1: want to be a playoff team and you have to 449 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 1: put two guys with or in the middle as your 450 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 1: starting quarterback, I'm out now. You guys know where I stand. 451 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:42,919 Speaker 1: I think Daniel Jones is gonna end up being the 452 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 1: starting quarterback, but you know, at the end of the day, 453 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: they'll probably both end up playing throughout the year. I 454 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: think the Colts, you know, got some issues. The Titans, 455 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: who I actually think are going to be better because 456 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: defensively it's pretty solid. Their quarterback situation could not have 457 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 1: been in a worse last year. I mean, Will Levis 458 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: knew that he was probably about to get cut and 459 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: it was like, oh, yeah, cut my shoulder, because who 460 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 1: gets surgery right before training camp. Little weird situation there. 461 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: But the Titans are going to be improved just because 462 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: I actually think cam Ward is going to be pretty 463 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: solid NFL player. But they're not sniffing the division championship, 464 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: and the Jags are the Jacks like on paper, they 465 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 1: don't look that terrible. Travis Hunters playing both ways. Can 466 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 1: Liam Cohen resurrect Trevor Lawrence. Defensively, they got some pieces 467 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: on the defensive line. But I just don't see how 468 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: the Texans don't win this division for a third time. 469 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: Plus one ten love that, I would say. Speaking of 470 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, I've been I've bet against them just based 471 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: on like, oh, this is the year. You know two 472 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 1: years ago the Ravens were gonna beat him the Niners 473 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. Last year is like, oh, this is 474 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: the year the Bills take him down, right, and it 475 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: hasn't happened, right. Hell, then I take him in the 476 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,640 Speaker 1: Super Bowl and they get blown out one of these years. 477 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: I think the Chiefs are gonna be good, but like 478 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: you get the Broncos, like, I just think there's value here. 479 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 1: Denver last year went three and three in the division, 480 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 1: and if it wasn't for a block field goal, they 481 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: would have beat the Chiefs. They would have gone for 482 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 1: in too. They went six and two at home, which 483 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: obviously mile high. The elevation is a advantage for them, 484 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: and they have an onlygue defense, as we know, the 485 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 1: coach loves the quarterback. I just think there's value there. 486 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,920 Speaker 1: Plus three hundred and I think I'm going to put 487 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 1: a just a chunk of change on there. I'm not 488 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 1: putting them on the same tier as the Houston Texans, 489 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: who feel like a lock. But I do think there's 490 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 1: value with the Denver Broncos, who we might look up. 491 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: By mid season, they were one of the best teams 492 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 1: in the league. You guys know where I stand when 493 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: it comes to the NFC North. I'm taking the Packers 494 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: to win this division. I think listen, Minnesota's roster is awesome, 495 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 1: their coaching staff's really good. We know nothing about their quarterback, 496 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: and if it turns out he's just average a best, 497 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: maybe a little bit below, that can derail the season. 498 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: Like if you it impacts the way you call plays, 499 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: and then if he's off, it puts so much pressure 500 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,400 Speaker 1: on the defense to be perfect. Never forget last year 501 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: early in the season, when they came out the gates swinging, 502 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: they were up like twenty eight to nothing, twenty eight 503 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,879 Speaker 1: to nothing before you'd even blink. I remember two of 504 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 1: their first three games of the season were against the 505 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 1: Texans and the forty nine ers, and they just beat 506 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,959 Speaker 1: the shit out of them. And Darnold's making these incredible throws. 507 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: He hit this bomb against the Niners. I remember they 508 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 1: killed the Texans, Like, God, how good is this team? 509 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 1: But a huge reason was the quarterback, right, because when 510 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 1: your quarterback's making plays, everything builds off that. Their defense 511 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: was humming. Now roster wise, they're better this year than 512 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:44,120 Speaker 1: they were last year, but their quarterback threw thirty five 513 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 1: touchdowns the Bears, I don't even know if the head 514 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:50,159 Speaker 1: coach likes the quarterback. And then the Lions. I'm not 515 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:53,679 Speaker 1: overreacting to the Hall of Fame game. I know Coward 516 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 1: thinks the coordinator changes, right, he judged the third stringers, 517 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 1: but like they do have two pretty big coordinator changes. 518 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 1: And Johnny Morton, you know, for a guy the Dan 519 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:09,479 Speaker 1: Campbell loves and John Gruden loves and Sean Payton loves, 520 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: why wasn't this guy more dominant offensive coordinator throughout you know, 521 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: the course of his career. This is a guy. It's 522 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: not like he's thirty years old. I mean, this is 523 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 1: a guy in his mid fifties. And then defensively, like 524 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: losing Aaron Glenn is a real thing. He was easily 525 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,199 Speaker 1: one of the best defensive coordinators of the last four 526 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 1: or five years. Like you would put him on a 527 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: tier with like a Fangio A sala A, Demico Ryans 528 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: Mike McDonald like he was big time and there's just 529 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: gonna be a drop off. Most guys at defensive coordinator. 530 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 1: To me, it's easier to find offensive coordinators, right, not 531 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 1: saying that every offensive coordinator is gonna be good. We 532 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 1: see a lot of guys flame out. But if you've 533 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: studied long enough with the right people and just the 534 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: instincts of calling play, especially if you're a former quarterback 535 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 1: or you know, former skill guy, it's kind of comes 536 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 1: naturally to you. Defensively, it's twofold. One you need the 537 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: talent on that side of the ball, and two you 538 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 1: like have to be pretty smart, so you can't. It's 539 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: not just it's like you know, on offense, it's very cerebral. 540 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: You don't have to be a super tough guy if 541 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,439 Speaker 1: you're an offensive coordinator. That's why we've seen some of 542 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: these quarterbacks, like Andy Reid's an outlier. He's a former 543 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 1: offensive lineman. Most guys are former quarterbacks, and I would 544 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 1: say quarterbacks aren't like the toughest guy in the room. 545 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: But defensively, you kind of got to be a tough motherfucker, right, 546 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: But you also got to be really cerebral, Like, yeah, 547 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: Vic Fangio when you listen to him, talk like pretty 548 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 1: old school, pretty rough, but he's brilliant and he knows 549 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 1: his defense inside and out. So like, is there gonna 550 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: be a drop off on defense? They were winning games 551 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 1: last year on defense with me and you playing linebacker 552 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 1: and dB and defensive line. I don't know if there's 553 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: a margin for error losing Aaron Glenn like that. So 554 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: I just think there's a lot of question marks in 555 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: the division that has a ton of talent. In Green 556 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: Bay plus two fifty like I'm taking, and then I 557 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 1: think the best value in the entire league is this 558 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: Seattle at five to one. I think sometimes the Rams 559 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 1: are discussed like they're the Eagles or the Chiefs. They 560 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: won ten games last year, and listen, they played the 561 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 1: Eagles better than any team in the playoffs. They had 562 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: them on the ropes and it felt like they were 563 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: driving to win the game. I mean technically they literally were, 564 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 1: and they were hot at the end of the season. 565 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: But I think we talk about them like they're a 566 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: fourteen to fifteen win team. One currently, their quarterback is 567 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 1: week to week with a back injury and we're talking 568 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: three plus weeks now and no end in sight. And 569 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: if they got to play Jimmy Garoppolo, if they've been 570 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: winning ten games with the thirty seven, thirty six, thirty 571 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 1: eight year old Matt Stafford, they're not winning ten games 572 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: with Jimmy Garoppolo. I don't care how much Sean McVay 573 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: gasses them. Uth. The forty nine ers, who I still 574 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: think are pretty valuable, and they are they favored to 575 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 1: win the division, got a lot of question marks. One, 576 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: they just had to cut a kicker today because they 577 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:55,479 Speaker 1: were in a kicking competition, but they needed the roster 578 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 1: spot because they have so many injuries at training camp. 579 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: Their team is not as deep as it was in 580 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: years past. They had to let a lot of guys go. 581 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: They're gonna be very dependent on young rookies. Which listen, 582 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: rookies gonna have a good game. Rookies can have a 583 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: good month, but most rookies, even guys that go on 584 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 1: to be Hall of Famers, don't have great rookie seasons. 585 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: And then the Cardinals, like I know, they're getting a 586 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: lot of like underground, They're like this hipster pick right 587 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: now is like the Cardinals I'm just not picking a 588 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: team with Kyler Murrays or starting quarterback to win the division. 589 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 1: The Seattle Seahawks went ten and seven last year. They 590 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: had the same record as the Rams. They were the 591 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: best play of Sam Darnold's career when he threw the 592 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 1: game winning touchdown against them in Seattle. From winning eleven 593 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: and just winning the division, the thing that jumps out 594 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: to me is they went three and six at home. 595 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 1: They were not very good at home. Well, I would say, 596 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: like this Seattle team, there's gonna be a lot of 597 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 1: buzz coming into the season. I'd imagine at worst they're 598 00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: gonna be four and four at home. Honestly, they should 599 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: win five or six games at home because of the 600 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 1: schedule this year and the teams that the NFC West plays, 601 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 1: the two South divisions, pretty big advantage. They had an 602 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 1: excellent draft. Sam Darnold, Like, even if he's not the 603 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: version that we saw in Minnesota. Guy just chucking touchdowns 604 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 1: to Justin Jefferson. Throw thirty five touchdowns? Why can't he 605 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: throw twenty seven? Clint Kubiaks the offensive coordinated. They're gonna 606 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: run the Shanahan system. He already knows it. They got 607 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: some good pieces on offense. I'm not saying this is 608 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: I think the Texans are gonna win the division. I 609 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: think the Packers are gonna win the division. I think 610 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: Denver there's just value there. I wouldn't bet my life 611 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 1: savings on it. I think this is by far the 612 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: best value on the board and worth taking a flyer, 613 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: because I think there's just so many question marks. Arizona's 614 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: just a yearly question mark. The forty nine ers, I mean, 615 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: are they gonna what are they gonna look like by 616 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: the time the season comes around from an injury standpoint, 617 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 1: and the rams fucking quarterback can't even practice. And it's 618 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: not one of those like, hey, we're just giving him 619 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,959 Speaker 1: the reust. His back hurts and he's already old. And 620 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: let's face it, for a guy thirty six thirty seven 621 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: years old, he's pretty weathered given how many hits he take. 622 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: And I love the guy, but if he's gonna be 623 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: missing games, like, I'm just not buying into them. With 624 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo, and speaking of I love gambling, it's one 625 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:24,959 Speaker 1: of the greatest stories I've ever seen because the balls 626 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: it would take and the belief in what you're doing 627 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: would it's second to none. And I'm a huge believer 628 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: in betting on yourself. And you know, your gut and 629 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: your instincts in life have to carry you sometimes in 630 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 1: big decisions. I know some of you are very trying 631 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: to be very objective and break things down, just try 632 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: to quantify everything. I'm a bigging instincts and gut guy, 633 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: so I've made decisions before based on gut. I'm not 634 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 1: saying it's always gonna work, but to me, it tends 635 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: to lead you in the right way. This AI AI, 636 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: I can't even speak artificial intelligence arms race is insane. 637 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 1: I mean, Mark Zuckerberg is paying people, stealing them from 638 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: other companies and paying them like their their Luca or 639 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 1: Yannis or Steph Curry. And he's paying people hundreds of 640 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 1: millions of dollars, people in their late twenties early mid thirties, 641 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 1: like their NBA players. He's giving them two hundred and 642 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 1: fifty million dollar contracts. I saw this tweet today that 643 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 1: just blew my mind that Zuckerberg offered this guy to 644 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: be the head CEO of this crew that he's built 645 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: one point five billion dollars. He's trying to build the 646 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: AI dream team. And he wanted this guy to be 647 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 1: his lead dog. He offered Andrew Tullock, a next meta 648 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: and top tier talent, a four year contract that included salary, 649 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 1: equity bonuses that totaled around one point five billion dollars. 650 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 1: You know what Andrew said. He said no because he 651 00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: owned three point seventy five percent of his own AI 652 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: startup thinking machines. I mean, that's got like, you know, 653 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 1: some sci fi movie written all over it. But evaluations 654 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 1: keep pumping. The thought is that it's a potential three 655 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 1: plus billion dollar pay day for this guy. Here's the thing, 656 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 1: Zucker's Zuckerberg's offer getting the know he needs this to survive, 657 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: this Andrew character until his own company IPOs, and there's 658 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: no guarantee. And listen, everyone in the finance world thinks 659 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: this AI bubble is going to go on for a while. 660 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: And it's not even a bubble. It's a real thing. 661 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 1: I've known people in the alcohol industry that I had 662 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 1: a buddy telling me a story, Like last year, I 663 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 1: was actually at my wedding about some of these craft 664 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: breweries that you know, years ago, within the last five, ten, 665 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: fifteen years, were the apple of everyone's eye. And these 666 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 1: big you know, Budweiser, Corps, Light or Miller Cores like 667 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: the big dogs would pay fifty eighty one hundred and 668 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 1: two hundred million dollars for these little guys and they 669 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,959 Speaker 1: would sell out and they'd become really rich and it 670 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: was awesome. And then there was a line when beer 671 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 1: wasn't selling at the same rate and craft breweries weren't 672 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: valued it the same way. And some people that turned 673 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:13,359 Speaker 1: down valuations of seventy five million dollars thinking that within 674 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 1: a year they would get one hundred and eighty million dollars. 675 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: A year came and they were told, we don't want 676 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 1: to buy your business, and your business is now trending 677 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 1: in the wrong way, and you got either going out 678 00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 1: of business written all over you or just kind of 679 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 1: surviving on a yearly basis written all over you. So listen, 680 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 1: I commend this cat takes balls, it takes stones to 681 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: turn down. A lot of human beings, over the course 682 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 1: of their life, will say no when it comes to money. 683 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: It's like, hey, this new job, I'm making one hundred 684 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 1: and twenty five K. You're offering me one hundred and 685 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,399 Speaker 1: sixty K. But I got to move. I don't want 686 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: to do it. Athletes do it, people do it all 687 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 1: the time, but one point five billion dollars to say 688 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 1: no on the fact that your thing is gonna hit 689 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 1: you talk about belief. You think Sean Payton believes in 690 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: bo Nick's this guy believes. I mean, he couldn't believe 691 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 1: anymore because to turn down that type money for your contract, 692 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 1: it's not like tying my entire life in for four years. 693 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:19,720 Speaker 1: It even fails. I'm filthy rich. So you gotta commend 694 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,839 Speaker 1: him for I guess having stones in a belief in 695 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 1: his own company. Okay, let's do a little mail bag 696 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: at John Middlecoff. At John middlecof is the Instagram fire 697 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,239 Speaker 1: in those dms? Get your questions answer here on the show. 698 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 1: Here's the thing. We're gonna go rapid fire because I 699 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: got a lot trying to get to everyone. I know 700 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 1: I'm still missing a lot, but I'm really trying. I 701 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: really am. So if I've left you out, either re 702 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 1: hit me back up or keep firing in there. Question 703 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 1: for the bag. If you were starting to franchise today, 704 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 1: who are the guys you would take over? CJ. The 705 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: point of this is the future, So considerations keeping guys 706 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 1: like Stafford out next five to seven years. Well, I 707 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 1: don't think the top four changes, right, Mahomes, Allen, Burrow, 708 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: and Lamar are just their locks to be the first 709 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: four guys taken. Then I think you start having conversations. 710 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,360 Speaker 1: I think last year I had him as my fifth quarterback. 711 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 1: I had him above Herbert. You know, Jared Goff was 712 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,760 Speaker 1: coming off a really really good year. You know Dak, 713 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,640 Speaker 1: Jalen was. I just had him above all those guys, 714 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:40,839 Speaker 1: and then Jayden Daniels appeared. So I would say, right now, 715 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:45,880 Speaker 1: again we have more CJ. Stroud information, I would take Jayden, 716 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 1: but I think then you could have the conversation of 717 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 1: him for the next five to seven years in the 718 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 1: mix of all these guys like Eagles fans like you 719 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,320 Speaker 1: taking Jalen Hurts like, yeah, I've seen Jalen play excellent 720 00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: super Bowl? Like can he throw from with in the 721 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 1: pocket for the next five years? I mean that's a 722 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:04,399 Speaker 1: question mark. It's why he gets argued over all the time. 723 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,280 Speaker 1: What's brock perty going to look like with all these randos? 724 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 1: How's Jared Goff gonna do without his offensive coordinator Dak? 725 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 1: What the hell is going on there? Right? So I 726 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:20,839 Speaker 1: think he's somewhere between six and seven would come off 727 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 1: the board. I think he's a lock to be a 728 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,680 Speaker 1: top ten off the board, and I think he's probably 729 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 1: either six or seven, depending on who you talk to. 730 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 1: Did you see Jerry Jones said to the media that 731 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:35,799 Speaker 1: he offered Micah Parsons almost two hundred mil guaranteed. There's 732 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 1: no way that's the case. Right question for the pot? 733 00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,319 Speaker 1: Jerry I said this to Colin yesterday. I really think 734 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,399 Speaker 1: he's starting to lose it. I mean, hearing him talk, 735 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 1: I think he's rambling on listen. Jerry's always had the 736 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,800 Speaker 1: gift to gab. He's a salesman. He's an elite salesman 737 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: in his heyday. I think's hey day's over. If he 738 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 1: was an athlete, he would get cut right. If he 739 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 1: was an artist, he would not be putting out any 740 00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:02,000 Speaker 1: number one hits. If he was a chef restaurant would 741 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 1: probably be going under. It's like you watch him talking 742 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 1: like cherry. How is this guy still so active here 743 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,520 Speaker 1: in front of the mic. Loves it which listen to 744 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 1: each his own. It's some guys don't like it, some 745 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:15,840 Speaker 1: guys like it. He's definitely not turn it off. In 746 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 1: his mid eighties. But I think everything coming out of 747 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 1: his mouth, it's getting really bad. There's no disputing it. 748 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,959 Speaker 1: Me hired Brian Schottenheimer to be his head coach, saw 749 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 1: Coward learn ran about his backward advisor. Big Vikes fans, 750 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 1: You and Colin are my guys. But all I hear 751 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 1: is the JJ McCarthy reservations. While I understand some, I 752 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 1: think everyone forgets that the organization said no to Aaron bleeping' 753 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,880 Speaker 1: Rogers who wanted Minnesota and said he would play for 754 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 1: five to ten million dollars. Doesn't that speak volumes to 755 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,800 Speaker 1: the belief they have in JJ. We have a ready 756 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: now Super Bowl contending team. I agree, Yet the Vikes 757 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,760 Speaker 1: brass says we're rolling with JJ over Rogers. I feel 758 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 1: like that's forgotten, not discussed enough. Wouldn't that manipulate the 759 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 1: thoughts and reservations about him from you guys the media? Well, 760 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:09,839 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people look at Rogers last 761 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,040 Speaker 1: year like it's over. I don't want to be in 762 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 1: business with this circus, right he If it starts going weird, 763 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:20,800 Speaker 1: he goes on McAfee and starts turning on me. He's 764 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 1: not playing nearly at the same level. I know he 765 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 1: can still spin it, but he doesn't move as well. 766 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 1: And the conversation wasn't just to sign Aaron Rodgers, because 767 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:32,879 Speaker 1: I think week one, Aaron Rodgers is a better player 768 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: in JJ McCarthy. Even if JJ McCarthy's good, right, he's 769 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 1: just veteran. He's just gonna be better immediately the circus 770 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 1: he brings in and the attention also the what it 771 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: does to JJ, It's like this could derail any chance 772 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 1: he's ever good, right, I mean it's a huge risk. 773 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 1: There are variables signing Rogers that are different than you know, 774 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 1: signing other quarterbacks, right, So I think it's more than 775 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:02,720 Speaker 1: just a belief in JJ. It's just did we want 776 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:06,400 Speaker 1: to be in the Aaron Rodgers business. Think of the 777 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: last couple quarterbacks, Kirk Cousins and Sam Darnold, pretty low 778 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 1: key quarterback operation, right, even JJ is good or bad, 779 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: Like he's kind of a low key, high level cat. 780 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: Not that Aaron's not, I mean all kumbay al right 781 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 1: now in Pittsburgh, but he's probably the most famous guy 782 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:29,959 Speaker 1: now that Brady's retired in the NFL. Right, I guess 783 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 1: Travis with Taylor Swift would be near the Top and mahomes. 784 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 1: But so the hooplaw of is fame, it's hard to 785 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:40,560 Speaker 1: be really famous. Like what also, if Aaron shot, can 786 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 1: you bench him in week six for JJ? So all 787 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 1: that stuff is discussed when they said no to him. 788 00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:48,839 Speaker 1: So I think it's more than just they think JJ 789 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,360 Speaker 1: McCarthy's better than Aaron, because I don't think it's just 790 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:55,240 Speaker 1: that simple. But I hear what you're saying, and listen, 791 00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 1: here's a simple reality when it comes to JJ McCarthy 792 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 1: more specifically than any other quarterback. We have no clue, 793 00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 1: absolutely none. How it's gonna go none. Like I think 794 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 1: I got a pretty good idea how Kayleb Williams plays. 795 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 1: I've been watching Kayleb play for like three straight years. 796 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 1: He's kind of always played the same, so I'll be 797 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:14,719 Speaker 1: a little stuned if he plays differently. Like I think 798 00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 1: I have a pretty good idea what I'm gonna get, right, 799 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:18,000 Speaker 1: Like I kind of know what I'm gonna get with 800 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:22,879 Speaker 1: Bo Nicks, I'd say I don't quite know. With Drake 801 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:24,800 Speaker 1: May and Josh McDaniels, I have to see with that offense. 802 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:27,839 Speaker 1: I know what Michael Pennix looks like. I've seen him 803 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:31,319 Speaker 1: sling that that pill for years at Washington. I got 804 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,960 Speaker 1: no clue what JAG's gonna look like passing offense. Well, 805 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 1: he's never played in a passing offense. How's that gonna work? 806 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:40,319 Speaker 1: What expectations do you have for DK and Pittsburgh. They 807 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:41,919 Speaker 1: made the trade and gave him a ton of money, 808 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 1: but he really hasn't matched come close to his best season, 809 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 1: which was twenty twenty with the aging Rogers new system. 810 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 1: Will he have a good year do you expect? This 811 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 1: is a good question because you can probably get him 812 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:57,880 Speaker 1: a little bit as a fantasy sleeper. I think the 813 00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 1: last couple of years for him. Now he's been a 814 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:04,960 Speaker 1: little banged up, But I think the first three years. 815 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:10,360 Speaker 1: I don't know if no one had more touchdowns in 816 00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,879 Speaker 1: NFL history, but he's right near the top. His first 817 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:19,759 Speaker 1: three year production from a touchdown standpoint was seven, ten 818 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 1: to twelve. So he had twenty nine touchdowns through his 819 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 1: first three seasons and did not miss a game nineteen 820 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:30,360 Speaker 1: twenty and twenty one. Twenty twenty two, he had a 821 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,920 Speaker 1: good year. He had ninety catches, six touchdowns, but one 822 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 1: thousand yards. Last year was weird. Now he got banged up, 823 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 1: sixty six catches, five touchdowns. I think they would take 824 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 1: the twenty three season where he was a full time 825 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:45,960 Speaker 1: you know, he didn't miss a game, well, I guess 826 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: they were. Were they playing seventeen games in twenty three? 827 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 1: I think they were, so maybe he missed one game. 828 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 1: He had sixty six catches and eight touchdowns and averaged 829 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:57,360 Speaker 1: almost seventeen yards to catch. Would they sign up for 830 00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: that right now? Sixteen games, sixty six catches, seventeen yards 831 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:04,879 Speaker 1: of catching eight touchdowns. I think they would. I think 832 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 1: in a perfect world they probably like the catches to 833 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 1: be closer to eighty. But I think seventeen yards of 834 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 1: catching eight touchdowns and playing basically every game, I think 835 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: that's what they're shooting for because last year he averaged 836 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:24,759 Speaker 1: less than two yards. You know, twenty three was his 837 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 1: highest yards per catch, Like you want him to be 838 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 1: an explosive down the field guy. And if you think 839 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,760 Speaker 1: about Rogers' best wide receivers over the course of his career, 840 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: you know, Jordi Davante, they were not players like DK Metcalf. 841 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 1: When has he ever played you know, Greg Jennings, Donald Driver, 842 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:49,320 Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson, He's never really had I mean DK doesn't 843 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,000 Speaker 1: really exist. He could have the history of the league, 844 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:54,960 Speaker 1: but it'll be interesting to see how it works. But 845 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:56,719 Speaker 1: I think they would sign up right now for eight 846 00:43:56,800 --> 00:44:01,800 Speaker 1: nine touchdowns. Given Trayvon Diggs growing off the field issues 847 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 1: like his recent injury from messing around, the five hundred 848 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,680 Speaker 1: k fine for not using the Cowboys trainer, and him 849 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,880 Speaker 1: inserting himself into the Micah Parson negotiations, what do you 850 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:15,920 Speaker 1: think the Cowboys could realistically get in return for him? Well, 851 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,399 Speaker 1: he signed a huge contract right what year we now, 852 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 1: twenty five? Was that two years ago? And then he 853 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 1: tore his ACLU. I haven't broke down the film because 854 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:28,239 Speaker 1: they were so bad last year. But I don't think 855 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: you're getting a lot for him, given that he makes 856 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 1: a lot of money. Everything that happened, I think, yeah, 857 00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. My guess is not it's not worth 858 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 1: trading him unless he becomes such a big headache. I 859 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:46,839 Speaker 1: also think chiming in on Micah Parsons like, I don't 860 00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:49,760 Speaker 1: think the front office cares that they want your teammates 861 00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,479 Speaker 1: to back up your teammates. So like Ceedee lamb Dak, 862 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 1: those guys supported him. I don't think that's that weird. 863 00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:57,839 Speaker 1: I think the other stuff with them being mad at 864 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:01,680 Speaker 1: him for the leadership stuff, not using the facility in 865 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 1: the offseason when they talk to him about leadership like that. 866 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 1: That's on the Cowboys, like you know this guy, you 867 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 1: pay this guy, and then did you change? Was he 868 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:12,799 Speaker 1: always like this before? I think the Cowboys have just 869 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:18,319 Speaker 1: become such a zoo. Yeah, des Bryant arguing with it's 870 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:21,440 Speaker 1: not the Cowboys fault necessarily, but Des Bryan inserts himself 871 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 1: with the Jerry Jones comments, and then Nicki Minaj starts 872 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,799 Speaker 1: talking about people beating other people's moms. It's like, what 873 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:31,160 Speaker 1: the fuck is going on here? Why has Joe Gibbs 874 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:34,280 Speaker 1: never brought up in the discussion of all time greatest coaches? 875 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:36,719 Speaker 1: He won three Super Bowls, which is tied for third 876 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:39,440 Speaker 1: all time, with three different starting quarterbacks, none of which 877 00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:41,839 Speaker 1: were Hall of famers. All the other coaches in this 878 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:45,400 Speaker 1: conversation had Hall of Fame quarterbacks. The goat coach is 879 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:48,839 Speaker 1: certainly up for debate. This is one of those like 880 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,840 Speaker 1: if you wanted to argue, like how good me and 881 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:56,319 Speaker 1: Joe Green was or Kenny Stabler or Bill Russell or 882 00:45:56,400 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 1: Jerry West. A little before my time, it's hard for 883 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 1: me to feel great, Like how great of a player 884 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 1: was Howie Long. I don't know. I never saw him play. 885 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:10,240 Speaker 1: My Howie Long experience was the John Travolta. I forget 886 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:12,719 Speaker 1: the movie what it was called, but it was really good. 887 00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 1: It was in like the Desert and Grand Canyon. It's 888 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:18,280 Speaker 1: a thriller in the action movie in the mid nineties. 889 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 1: But that's like, God, how he's a pretty good looking guy. 890 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,239 Speaker 1: What the hell's that movie called? Off? To think of 891 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:27,600 Speaker 1: it later, my point is arguing over Joe Gibbs like 892 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:29,840 Speaker 1: I'd never watched them coach, so it's hard for me 893 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:35,239 Speaker 1: to go Joe Gibbs versus Chuck Nol versus I don't know. 894 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 1: Clearly pretty impressive guy, I mean, went to run NASCAR, 895 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 1: has very very successful teams. But you're right, he never 896 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 1: gets talked about. I can't answer that question. As a 897 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 1: Giants fan, I can't help but admire this stability of 898 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers organization and the solid job that 899 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:57,319 Speaker 1: Lafloora has done. But do you think the Packers once 900 00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 1: again don't make a deep playoff run Lafleur might be 901 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:03,560 Speaker 1: in danger of gaining the Kyle Shanahan reputation, creative play 902 00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 1: caller who can't get over the line. Well, every coach 903 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 1: until they win a Super Bowl is a guy that 904 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 1: can't get it done and when it matters most. I mean, 905 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:15,640 Speaker 1: no one holds that more right now than Kyle. Right. 906 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 1: Marty Schottenheimer held it for a long time, then Andy 907 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 1: Reid held it and went from Marty to Andy to 908 00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 1: now Kyle. Now the difference. You know, Marty passed and 909 00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:30,120 Speaker 1: never won a Super Bowl. Andy didn't just get over 910 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 1: the hump. He became a freaking legend. You know. I 911 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,240 Speaker 1: would bet now, does it happen San Francisco? If Kyle's 912 00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:38,719 Speaker 1: gonna coach twenty plus more years, he's going to win 913 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:44,440 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl? Right. Lafleur still is like, has a 914 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,600 Speaker 1: little while to go before you get to that point. 915 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:51,560 Speaker 1: I would say, but this is a big year for 916 00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:55,879 Speaker 1: la Floor. It really is. Kevin O'Connell has often talked 917 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 1: about as one of the top OC's and Brian Flores 918 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: gets similar praise on the defensive side. But I don't 919 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 1: really see it. O'Connell zhen two in the playoffs and 920 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 1: lost last year's Week eighteen game against the Lions. With 921 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 1: a division on the line. The Vikings were favored in 922 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:13,080 Speaker 1: all three of those games. His play calling is extremely 923 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 1: pass heavy. His reluctance to run the ball has felt 924 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,880 Speaker 1: like it's a major hole. On the other side, flores 925 00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 1: defense looks incredible against the average and bad teams, but 926 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:27,719 Speaker 1: the moment they face the top offense with a good quarterback, 927 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:30,439 Speaker 1: they often get lit up. Just look at how many 928 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,400 Speaker 1: points they've given up to teams like the Packers, Lions 929 00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:36,000 Speaker 1: and Rams, or any of the top tier teams the 930 00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:39,720 Speaker 1: last two years. I don't see any performances that stand 931 00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:44,319 Speaker 1: out as impressive defensively, So why are they still Why 932 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:46,880 Speaker 1: do they still get so much credit as one of 933 00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:50,439 Speaker 1: the best coaching duos in the NFL. Well two years 934 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:53,040 Speaker 1: ago they punked the Niners when the Niners went to 935 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:56,319 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl on Monday Night Football on defense, and 936 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:58,360 Speaker 1: brock Perty said after, like, I didn't even know what 937 00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 1: I was looking at. I think Brian Flores is pretty good. 938 00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:05,319 Speaker 1: I think he's widely considered. I'd say, as we sit 939 00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 1: here right now, Vic Fangio gets the universal praise as 940 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 1: the best non head coach defensive coordinator. Mike McDonald, if 941 00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 1: he was in that situation, would be right there too, right, 942 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 1: but he's a head coach. Defensive coordinator, but elite defensive minds. 943 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 1: I think Flores is easily a top three or four 944 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:25,359 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator in the league. Robert salis probably up there too. 945 00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:27,400 Speaker 1: I think Dennis Allen's pretty good too. I mean, there 946 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:30,839 Speaker 1: are some excellent defensive coordinators, and Flores's elite. I'm with 947 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:34,120 Speaker 1: you on Kevin O'Connell. He's an impressive guy. He looks 948 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:38,959 Speaker 1: the part former quarterback, well spoken, I mean, like drawn 949 00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:41,040 Speaker 1: up in a lab to be a head coach. But 950 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:44,280 Speaker 1: I've seen him in the biggest moments not be able 951 00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:49,440 Speaker 1: to pivot because he's not like the Shanahan tree. He 952 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:52,280 Speaker 1: never coached under Kyle, but he kind of because of McVeigh. 953 00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:56,919 Speaker 1: Mcveigh's a lot different than Laflora, than Kyle, than even 954 00:49:56,920 --> 00:50:00,760 Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel. Those guys love running the ball. Sean McVeigh 955 00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:04,600 Speaker 1: wants to pass. Kevin O'Connell is like Sean. The difference 956 00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:06,960 Speaker 1: is Sean will pivot in game if he has to. 957 00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:10,920 Speaker 1: Shawn's a great adjuster. I can't remember the Giants game 958 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,880 Speaker 1: three years ago when they lost to fucking Daniel Jones 959 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:18,920 Speaker 1: at home that's a horrendous loss. Last year, you know, 960 00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: to lose the Lions game and to lose the uh 961 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:27,440 Speaker 1: who they play? Oh, the Rams game in Arizona. Your 962 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:31,160 Speaker 1: offensive line is decimated with injuries, your quarterback early on 963 00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:33,920 Speaker 1: looks a little rattled. The easiest way to settle the 964 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 1: game down. I understand, when you're down thirty five to seven, 965 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:39,839 Speaker 1: you're not gonna call runs. But early on the game 966 00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:43,120 Speaker 1: you can settle the game down. But former quarterback likes 967 00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:44,719 Speaker 1: to chuck it and then everyone's like, oh, it's Sam 968 00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:47,760 Speaker 1: Darnold's the idiot. No one was critical of Kevin O'Connell 969 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:49,239 Speaker 1: ast year. I felt like I was the only guy 970 00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,320 Speaker 1: that talks for a living that even brought it up. Besides, 971 00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:54,520 Speaker 1: if you're like a local guy or a fan like 972 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:57,560 Speaker 1: every national, guys like Kevin O'Connell can do no wrong. Well, 973 00:50:57,600 --> 00:50:59,720 Speaker 1: I don't know, I canny win a playoff game first, 974 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 1: Yet he's compared to like Kyle and McVeigh. Matt Lafleur 975 00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:06,399 Speaker 1: went on the road and won a playoff game. Wake 976 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:09,800 Speaker 1: me up. When Kevin O'Connell wins a playoff game he's 977 00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:12,760 Speaker 1: been favored in. Like you said, both the playoff games 978 00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:15,239 Speaker 1: three years ago, he lost to a nine to eight 979 00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:18,600 Speaker 1: Giants team that is one of the least talented teams 980 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:21,440 Speaker 1: to win a playoff game in a recent memory. Because 981 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 1: even if you wanted to say that about the Washington 982 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:26,120 Speaker 1: Commanders last year, their quarterback was like having one of 983 00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:29,600 Speaker 1: the great years a rookie's ever had. Daniel Jones threw 984 00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 1: fifteen touchdowns. So I'm with you again. I like him. 985 00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:35,960 Speaker 1: He's a good coach, but he gets talked about like 986 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:41,160 Speaker 1: he's second coming of Bill Walsh. A question for the bag, 987 00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:44,040 Speaker 1: what was your reaction when you became a scout for 988 00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:47,319 Speaker 1: the Eagles. Could you believe that you were technically in 989 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:50,160 Speaker 1: the NFL when you got fired? Did you try to 990 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:54,200 Speaker 1: get another scouting gig or would you if a team called. 991 00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:57,839 Speaker 1: I would say I was pretty thrilled. I mean I 992 00:51:57,880 --> 00:52:02,080 Speaker 1: had paid for my flight to interview. Typically, like once 993 00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:04,800 Speaker 1: you get in the league and you're interviewing with other people, 994 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:08,440 Speaker 1: they fly you out, they put you up. In twenty ten, 995 00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:10,320 Speaker 1: when I was a GA and I got hired in Philly, 996 00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 1: I paid for my flight out there. I paid for 997 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:17,440 Speaker 1: my hotel, which was in the hood and was basically 998 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:20,160 Speaker 1: like a prostitution ring being run out of there. But 999 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:22,359 Speaker 1: you know, I had to pay for it, and I'm, 1000 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 1: you know, twenty four, twenty five years old. I don't 1001 00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:27,080 Speaker 1: have any money, so I get the cheapest flight possible, 1002 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:29,879 Speaker 1: I get the cheapest hotel room possible, and I got 1003 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:31,560 Speaker 1: the job on the spot. And it was pretty exciting. 1004 00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,400 Speaker 1: It was pretty cool. Not gonna lie, but you know, 1005 00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:39,200 Speaker 1: getting offered twenty two grand no health insurance. I was 1006 00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:41,719 Speaker 1: doing like cartwheels down the street. I went out, had 1007 00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 1: some cocktails and had dinner somewhere in South Philly. I 1008 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,759 Speaker 1: don't know, it's cool. It was exciting time in a 1009 00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:51,640 Speaker 1: young man's life. It was yeah, it was really cool. 1010 00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:54,200 Speaker 1: It was awesome for anyone that people at Fresno State 1011 00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,280 Speaker 1: did help me get there my family. It was cool 1012 00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:59,400 Speaker 1: when I got fired. I did try, but I just 1013 00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,480 Speaker 1: didn't know that many people in the NFL, you know now, 1014 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:04,560 Speaker 1: like looking back, I got friends all over the place. 1015 00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:06,879 Speaker 1: I know way more people sitting in my chair now 1016 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 1: than I did then. I wouldn't. I mean, I'm not 1017 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 1: never this is what I do for a living. But 1018 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 1: I kind of tried. I mean I called around, but 1019 00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:19,640 Speaker 1: didn't work out at the time. I mean it worked 1020 00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 1: out a big picture for me. You start looking in 1021 00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:28,400 Speaker 1: the mirror, you go, I graduated college with you know, 1022 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:32,400 Speaker 1: an ag business kind of degree. Then I get a 1023 00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:35,920 Speaker 1: master's degree in like sports management or something. I got 1024 00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:40,920 Speaker 1: multiple degrees. I've only worked in football at Fresno State 1025 00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:43,279 Speaker 1: and in the NFL, and then you get fired. Even 1026 00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:46,480 Speaker 1: if I wanted to pivot, I'm like, how can I 1027 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:48,880 Speaker 1: walk into a job if I wanted just like a 1028 00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:51,520 Speaker 1: more normal job, like to sell insurance or go work 1029 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:54,920 Speaker 1: at Facebook, or i know, go work at Bank of America. 1030 00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:56,440 Speaker 1: It's like, what have you been doing. It's like, yeah, 1031 00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:58,879 Speaker 1: I've been evaluating the practice squad of the Green Bay 1032 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:02,319 Speaker 1: Packers in the Arizona car Like, uh, do you know 1033 00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:05,440 Speaker 1: anything about interest rates? No? But I really have a 1034 00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:08,200 Speaker 1: good feel for the backup guard situation for the New 1035 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:11,320 Speaker 1: England Patriots. You know. It's like, Oh, you want to 1036 00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:13,719 Speaker 1: talk about there's a couple of young sophomores at the 1037 00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:16,239 Speaker 1: University of Washington. I think we should keep an eye 1038 00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 1: on to hire here at the Bank. No, uh, linebacker 1039 00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:21,880 Speaker 1: and tight end. I think they got a hot, bright future. 1040 00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:26,800 Speaker 1: He started thinking, You're like, my skills and what I've learned, 1041 00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,759 Speaker 1: and I feel pretty confident in those skills. And if 1042 00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:32,399 Speaker 1: I would have got if someone would have hired a 1043 00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:34,640 Speaker 1: young John when he was down and out back in 1044 00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:38,799 Speaker 1: the league, I would have been equipped to handle whatever role. 1045 00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:42,000 Speaker 1: I'd worked in house, I'd worked on the road. But 1046 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:44,720 Speaker 1: if I were gone and tried to get a normal 1047 00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:51,960 Speaker 1: job outside of football, I didn't have any skills. I remember, 1048 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:54,400 Speaker 1: you know, you're just kind of desperate because you're like 1049 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:58,160 Speaker 1: twenty eight, twenty nine years old. You don't really know 1050 00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:00,759 Speaker 1: what to do at the time. Actually, the first couple 1051 00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 1: of months and I started calling, I had met Joe 1052 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 1: Lacob's son, Kirk, who's now is like the assistant GM 1053 00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:10,359 Speaker 1: of the Warriors, and I remember reaching out to him. 1054 00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:13,239 Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, do you guys have any opportunities. I'm 1055 00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:14,960 Speaker 1: like and looking back, like, what would I have done 1056 00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:16,759 Speaker 1: with the Warriors now? Granted, if they would have hired me, 1057 00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:18,920 Speaker 1: I would have been part of the dynasty. Maybe I 1058 00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:20,880 Speaker 1: would have been one of the most unique sporting careers, 1059 00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:24,319 Speaker 1: worked in the NBA, worked in the NFL. He was like, no, 1060 00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:26,320 Speaker 1: we don't really have anything. I don't even know what 1061 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:28,759 Speaker 1: I would have brought to the table. Hey, you want 1062 00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:31,560 Speaker 1: to talk to usc football. But then I just got 1063 00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:33,439 Speaker 1: a job in radio and kind of never looked back. 1064 00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:37,680 Speaker 1: Sometimes you realize, like, let's say it all ended tomorrow, 1065 00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:42,040 Speaker 1: like that there's podcasts and sports talk just stopped, and 1066 00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:45,840 Speaker 1: I couldn't do it starting tomorrow August fifth, I could 1067 00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:49,560 Speaker 1: not do anything under that umbrella. What would I do? 1068 00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:53,960 Speaker 1: I mean, what if I wanted to create a business, 1069 00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:56,319 Speaker 1: if I wanted to go interview places like what are 1070 00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:59,880 Speaker 1: my skills? Talk football? Like talk I can sell? I mean, 1071 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:04,360 Speaker 1: I am essentially a salesman, but like everything I've done 1072 00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:09,719 Speaker 1: has mainly been related to football, or I could break 1073 00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:12,480 Speaker 1: down like Cam Young's win just to day on the 1074 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:17,320 Speaker 1: PGA Tour set a record made nineteen point one million 1075 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:20,960 Speaker 1: dollars before his first win. Tommy Fleetwood will break that 1076 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,560 Speaker 1: record if he ever wins, but he might not. But 1077 00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:25,400 Speaker 1: these are type conversations that I would have in like 1078 00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:36,320 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. Some real estate firm delete 1079 00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:38,839 Speaker 1: me makes it easy, quick, and safe to remove your 1080 00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:42,280 Speaker 1: personal data online At a time when surveillance and data 1081 00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 1: breaches are common enough to make everyone vulnerable.

I'm tired of it. I 1087 00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:07,200 Speaker 1: don't want to get text message, I don't want to 1088 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:10,320 Speaker 1: get any more phone calls. And as someone who is 1089 00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:12,840 Speaker 1: an active online presence, as I'm sure a lot of 1090 00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:16,600 Speaker 1: people do, we are very, very vulnerable.

Does having a belly or 1100 00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,480 Speaker 1: you're a super jacked play a factor in college or 1101 00:58:02,480 --> 00:58:06,320 Speaker 1: in the NFL? Have you ever seen linemen that maybe 1102 00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:09,200 Speaker 1: didn't have the best physique, but we're super strong, or 1103 00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:13,600 Speaker 1: linemen that were really jacked but easy to move. I 1104 00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:17,200 Speaker 1: think you're way less judgmental if the guy is a 1105 00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:20,360 Speaker 1: good player, what his body type is. If you have 1106 00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:24,760 Speaker 1: a belly, like you know, a noticeable you're kind of flabby, 1107 00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:28,600 Speaker 1: and you're not a good player or an average player, 1108 00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:32,640 Speaker 1: then you get discriminated against big time. But if you're 1109 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:37,160 Speaker 1: just good your body type. You know, some guys naturally 1110 00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:39,840 Speaker 1: are a little more cut up, some guys are bigger, 1111 00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 1: some guys just fluctuate, you know. I'd imagine I'm trying 1112 00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:48,320 Speaker 1: to think like every guy's body type is a little 1113 00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:52,320 Speaker 1: bit different, but you know, you some people need that 1114 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:54,480 Speaker 1: extra weight to help them anchor. I think if you're 1115 00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:57,440 Speaker 1: a really good player and a good athlete, having a 1116 00:58:57,520 --> 00:59:01,440 Speaker 1: quote unquote belly doesn't matter es Actually for an offensive lineman. 1117 00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:04,640 Speaker 1: I think sometimes with the defensive lineman, it goes, hey, 1118 00:59:04,680 --> 00:59:06,360 Speaker 1: this guy could lose a little weight, Especially if I 1119 00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:08,320 Speaker 1: got a belly and you're playing at three thirty. It's like, hey, 1120 00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:11,240 Speaker 1: if you if you cut fifteen pounds, you would be 1121 00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 1: that much more explosive. I saw Jordan Davis, the Eagles 1122 00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:20,840 Speaker 1: defensive lineman, has I think drop like twenty five pounds. 1123 00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:24,640 Speaker 1: It looks good. So I think in people one knock 1124 00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:26,200 Speaker 1: on him as he'd get out of shape and it 1125 00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:29,880 Speaker 1: would hurt his ability to play late in the games. 1126 00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:33,640 Speaker 1: So if you have a quote unquote belly and you're 1127 00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:35,840 Speaker 1: good and you're in shape, like it's you just got 1128 00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:40,600 Speaker 1: to carry that weight to slow guys down. I can't 1129 00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:44,680 Speaker 1: think of You know, some guys get big. You know, 1130 00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:47,720 Speaker 1: Trent can get big. I mean last year I thought 1131 00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:49,920 Speaker 1: when he showed up after holding out, he looked like 1132 00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:52,400 Speaker 1: he was three hundred and eighty pounds, and now he 1133 00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:54,840 Speaker 1: might play at three hundred and forty pounds. But like him, 1134 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:58,120 Speaker 1: like Jason Peters, some of these guys are just such 1135 00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:00,000 Speaker 1: physical freaks. They can be three hundred and thirty three 1136 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:03,480 Speaker 1: hundred and forty pounds and not look that fat. And 1137 01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:07,000 Speaker 1: some guys like Lane Johnson's a good example. Joe Staley 1138 01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:10,600 Speaker 1: was like this, they look way more in shape when 1139 01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 1: they're playing really well than quote unquote fat. But I 1140 01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:17,680 Speaker 1: bet you know what's Jason Kelsey retire now two forty 1141 01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:22,800 Speaker 1: regrets on the wedding and the baby love the show. 1142 01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:25,880 Speaker 1: I wanted to ask two part question do you watch 1143 01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:30,240 Speaker 1: NFL Red Zone at all during an NFL season? Second question, 1144 01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:33,120 Speaker 1: what do you think of ESPN buying Red Zone. All 1145 01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:36,240 Speaker 1: my friends watch Red Zone and we love not having commercials. 1146 01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:39,840 Speaker 1: Just curious if you think Red Zone will change and 1147 01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:45,320 Speaker 1: have more commercials with ESPN as the owner. Well, typically 1148 01:00:45,360 --> 01:00:50,080 Speaker 1: my setup in this office. We actually might be moving 1149 01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:52,880 Speaker 1: offices here, might be building one on the side of 1150 01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:56,160 Speaker 1: my house and then looking to have one just outside 1151 01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:58,240 Speaker 1: of the house as the family expands, so we can 1152 01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:03,600 Speaker 1: have a little separation between home and work. But I 1153 01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:07,360 Speaker 1: have to have multiple TVs and I typically throw up 1154 01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:10,680 Speaker 1: all the games right, especially now with YouTube TV, I 1155 01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:13,640 Speaker 1: can I have a sixty inch TV and like a 1156 01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:16,400 Speaker 1: fifty forty inch TV and I can have like six 1157 01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:19,400 Speaker 1: seven games going. Now, if we get to a number 1158 01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:22,520 Speaker 1: where I have an extra box, I will put on 1159 01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:25,840 Speaker 1: Red Zone. But I don't watch Red Zone like I 1160 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:27,880 Speaker 1: would if I wasn't doing this. So I try to 1161 01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:30,840 Speaker 1: have all the actual games going on, so I can, 1162 01:01:31,160 --> 01:01:34,080 Speaker 1: you know, especially the main ones, but they I have 1163 01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:38,400 Speaker 1: the sound whatever the best or most important game is 1164 01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:41,040 Speaker 1: going on, So I never really have the Red Zone 1165 01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 1: sound on. Now, aren't there two separate like direct TV 1166 01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:49,320 Speaker 1: or the package their Red Zone and whatever was on 1167 01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:53,320 Speaker 1: cables Red Zone? So isn't there Scott Hansen, and there's 1168 01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:57,400 Speaker 1: Andrew Ceciliano. I feel like I've watched Scott Hansen forever 1169 01:01:57,520 --> 01:02:00,400 Speaker 1: at least, you know, had him on the box. So yeah, 1170 01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:03,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not not against red zone at all. 1171 01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:06,200 Speaker 1: I just for what I do. I can't focus on 1172 01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:08,960 Speaker 1: it as much what I use it for because it's 1173 01:02:09,000 --> 01:02:13,240 Speaker 1: usually a little delayed that if there's a touchdown or 1174 01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:16,080 Speaker 1: a big play. If I'm watching like six games at 1175 01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:19,400 Speaker 1: one time, and like the Colts Texans game and I 1176 01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:22,520 Speaker 1: missed it, then I look over and a minute later 1177 01:02:23,040 --> 01:02:26,400 Speaker 1: Scott Hansen will throw to Jonathan Taylor going seventy yards. Right, 1178 01:02:27,520 --> 01:02:29,960 Speaker 1: I would not be as worried in the short term. 1179 01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:33,520 Speaker 1: Here's the thing. ESPN bought the NFL Network, which the 1180 01:02:33,600 --> 01:02:36,280 Speaker 1: NFL wanted out of business. Right, the NFL is making 1181 01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:40,040 Speaker 1: so much money from football, they don't want in on 1182 01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:42,960 Speaker 1: the media business. It's not lucrative enough for them to 1183 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:45,520 Speaker 1: waste their time fucking with That to me is as 1184 01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:47,680 Speaker 1: simple as it gets when it comes to why they're 1185 01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:51,120 Speaker 1: getting away from it. It wasn't financially worth it for 1186 01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:54,919 Speaker 1: them to be in the media business. But two, they 1187 01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:58,840 Speaker 1: get ownership in ESPN. So if you want to be 1188 01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:01,880 Speaker 1: in business with me, the NFL, even if you purchase 1189 01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:07,040 Speaker 1: something from me, like CBS, ABC, NBC when they purchase 1190 01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:12,160 Speaker 1: the league's product, play the games, the NFL still tells 1191 01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:15,480 Speaker 1: them what to do. Now, they can't totally tell you 1192 01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 1: how to run your business. But if Roger Goodell and 1193 01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:21,840 Speaker 1: the powers to be like Scott Hanson running the red zone, 1194 01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:25,880 Speaker 1: he will continue to run the red zone. So my 1195 01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:29,480 Speaker 1: guess is Scott Hansen is at least safe for a 1196 01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:31,680 Speaker 1: little bit. There are some funny memes and stuff going around, 1197 01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:34,920 Speaker 1: like how ESPN will have Kendrick Perkins or Steven A 1198 01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:37,680 Speaker 1: on there. I wouldn't be that worried at least for 1199 01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:40,080 Speaker 1: a year or two. But yeah, I mean you never 1200 01:03:40,120 --> 01:03:43,200 Speaker 1: say never when stuff like this happens. I do think 1201 01:03:43,200 --> 01:03:46,840 Speaker 1: you're safe for the at least the foreseeable future, because again, 1202 01:03:46,880 --> 01:03:52,760 Speaker 1: the NFL has equity in ESPN. Now, even though ESPN 1203 01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:55,800 Speaker 1: bought their properties, it's kind of a weird business transaction 1204 01:03:56,200 --> 01:04:00,240 Speaker 1: that still needs like government approval, which I'm sure get 1205 01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:04,400 Speaker 1: taken care of. What are your favorite your three top 1206 01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:08,960 Speaker 1: TV series? I would say number one of all times 1207 01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:11,960 Speaker 1: as Sopranos, and I would say one B is the Wire. 1208 01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:16,520 Speaker 1: I would say those are easily at the top. You 1209 01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:19,680 Speaker 1: know a lot of people I feel not even hipster, 1210 01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:26,680 Speaker 1: but I think it's it's like you feel like you're smart. 1211 01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:30,680 Speaker 1: If you say mad Men, I'm pro John Hamm and 1212 01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:35,360 Speaker 1: I watched the majority of the show. I thought it 1213 01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:41,640 Speaker 1: was a little overrated. I would say Breaking Bad again good. 1214 01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:44,800 Speaker 1: I think some people put it at the near the 1215 01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:49,320 Speaker 1: top of the mountain. It was solid. I think Sopranos 1216 01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:51,240 Speaker 1: and The Wire are just in a completely different level 1217 01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:54,320 Speaker 1: for me. And there's nothing that I've watched and I've 1218 01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:57,120 Speaker 1: watched I watched a lot of TV. Not proud to 1219 01:04:57,120 --> 01:05:00,800 Speaker 1: say I should be reading more, but there's not a 1220 01:05:00,880 --> 01:05:04,920 Speaker 1: major television show over the last twenty plus years a 1221 01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:11,240 Speaker 1: series that I have not watched. I'm watching a show 1222 01:05:11,280 --> 01:05:15,520 Speaker 1: right now called high Town on Netflix. We're on season two. 1223 01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:18,440 Speaker 1: It's really good. It's I'm not putting it with the 1224 01:05:18,480 --> 01:05:23,240 Speaker 1: Sopranos or The Wire or anything, but it's it's it's 1225 01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:31,520 Speaker 1: it's pretty freaking good. There's another show I know what 1226 01:05:31,680 --> 01:05:37,000 Speaker 1: was a show called This show became pretty toxic because 1227 01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:41,360 Speaker 1: Kevin Spacey got accused of some pretty hainous shit, but 1228 01:05:42,240 --> 01:05:45,560 Speaker 1: one of Netflix's first big hits, House of Cards with 1229 01:05:45,640 --> 01:05:48,760 Speaker 1: Kevin Spacey. They tried to last season when he got 1230 01:05:48,800 --> 01:05:52,240 Speaker 1: canceled and he wasn't in it. The show was a joke, 1231 01:05:52,920 --> 01:05:54,640 Speaker 1: but I'd say the first three or four seasons of 1232 01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:59,480 Speaker 1: House of Cards, we're pretty special. I was always a 1233 01:05:59,520 --> 01:06:04,960 Speaker 1: sucker to Dexter. Maybe it wouldn't age as well. Californication 1234 01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:07,440 Speaker 1: is another sleeper. I love that show Back in the 1235 01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:11,560 Speaker 1: day with David Dukeveny question for the bag. With all 1236 01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:15,360 Speaker 1: the NFL contract talk about Parsons talking about Jerry try 1237 01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:17,400 Speaker 1: to do a backdoor deal with that as agent, it 1238 01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:19,480 Speaker 1: got me thinking, do you think players in the past 1239 01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:21,760 Speaker 1: have gotten paid a little something extra under the table 1240 01:06:22,040 --> 01:06:29,480 Speaker 1: to avoid hurting the cap that is one hundred percent? 1241 01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:33,720 Speaker 1: Your question has been talked about four decades and the 1242 01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:37,960 Speaker 1: answer is yes. Think about all the different industries we 1243 01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:44,080 Speaker 1: all work in and listen with with technology it is. 1244 01:06:44,760 --> 01:06:48,440 Speaker 1: I couldn't walk into the Ferrari dealership and hand them 1245 01:06:48,480 --> 01:06:51,040 Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty thousand dollars cash in a bag 1246 01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:53,760 Speaker 1: for a Ferrari right, You're not allowed to do that. 1247 01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:56,800 Speaker 1: I couldn't knock on the door of a house and say, hey, 1248 01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:58,880 Speaker 1: I'll offer you two point five million dollars. I have 1249 01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:02,520 Speaker 1: it into briefcase like, this isn't the seventies or the eighties. 1250 01:07:03,120 --> 01:07:05,680 Speaker 1: So there are levels in which you have to do stuff. 1251 01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:10,880 Speaker 1: But one thing that I think definitely happens is the 1252 01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:17,600 Speaker 1: team helps players get marketing deals, especially with their sponsors. 1253 01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:21,080 Speaker 1: So if you play for team whoever, and you are 1254 01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:26,560 Speaker 1: a key player, and I give you my bank who 1255 01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:29,160 Speaker 1: is a big sponsor in my airline, and they pay 1256 01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:31,800 Speaker 1: you money right now, you do stuff for them, But 1257 01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:35,640 Speaker 1: I facilitate that deal. I mean people always said Tom 1258 01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:42,160 Speaker 1: Brady the his what was it called TB twelve, His 1259 01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:45,880 Speaker 1: office was in the Craft building across the street from JILT. 1260 01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:48,680 Speaker 1: I mean that to me is nothing. What's five thousand 1261 01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:52,560 Speaker 1: dollars rent a month? But it's like who knows what robbercraft? 1262 01:07:52,920 --> 01:07:55,880 Speaker 1: Guess what it's called business. I'd do it too, but 1263 01:07:55,960 --> 01:07:59,320 Speaker 1: there's a difference of like can I buy the guy 1264 01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:02,400 Speaker 1: a ten million dollar mansion in my community? Like I 1265 01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:04,920 Speaker 1: don't think you can do stuff like that, But I 1266 01:08:05,280 --> 01:08:13,000 Speaker 1: think stock tips business ventures, you know, I know the 1267 01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:15,600 Speaker 1: forty nine ers had a lot of guys invest into 1268 01:08:15,640 --> 01:08:19,120 Speaker 1: the soccer team internationally. Now it's above board, like you 1269 01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:25,040 Speaker 1: can just be an investor in stuff. But yeah, I 1270 01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:27,519 Speaker 1: mean I think I think a lot of shady stuff 1271 01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:32,800 Speaker 1: has happened over the years in all sports. I mean, 1272 01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:37,360 Speaker 1: the Warriors have been funneling those guys deals forever. Question 1273 01:08:37,400 --> 01:08:38,960 Speaker 1: for you, I realy saw a clip of you and 1274 01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:41,080 Speaker 1: Colin talking about top ten quarterbacks of all time, and 1275 01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:43,880 Speaker 1: notice Breeze and Rogers getting left out for guys like 1276 01:08:43,920 --> 01:08:49,120 Speaker 1: Bradshawn Aikman. I don't think you saw my list because 1277 01:08:49,160 --> 01:08:52,600 Speaker 1: I do not include Trey Aikman and Terry Bradshaw in 1278 01:08:52,720 --> 01:08:56,280 Speaker 1: my top ten. Aaron Rodgers are better. Trey Aikman's more 1279 01:08:56,320 --> 01:09:02,360 Speaker 1: accomplished clearly than Aaron Rodgers. Aaron better player. I can't 1280 01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:05,000 Speaker 1: even speak on Terry Bradshaw, he played before it was alive, 1281 01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:10,320 Speaker 1: but I would have Aaron Rodgers. You know, Drew Brees 1282 01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:12,240 Speaker 1: is unique. I mean, he's a first bout Hall of Famer, 1283 01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:16,720 Speaker 1: but he's a dumb quarterback. So these guys that play 1284 01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:22,040 Speaker 1: outside in inclement weather like like to meet, Rodgers is 1285 01:09:22,240 --> 01:09:25,439 Speaker 1: on a different tier than Drew Brees. Both some of 1286 01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:28,120 Speaker 1: the great quarterbacks of all time, But to me, Rogers 1287 01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:31,160 Speaker 1: is close to the top five. Then Drew Brees is 1288 01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:35,000 Speaker 1: sneaking into the top ten. But I don't put Treykman 1289 01:09:35,040 --> 01:09:37,320 Speaker 1: in the top ten quarterback, No shade in him. I 1290 01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:40,760 Speaker 1: just big Commanders fan and season take it over. I 1291 01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:43,040 Speaker 1: think the take that Jayden will have a sophomore slump 1292 01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:46,360 Speaker 1: because CJ. Stroud struggled at times last year after losing 1293 01:09:46,400 --> 01:09:48,600 Speaker 1: all three of the starting receivers as lazy analysis. I 1294 01:09:48,640 --> 01:09:52,280 Speaker 1: also think it's disrespectable as CJ. I don't think it's 1295 01:09:52,400 --> 01:09:54,720 Speaker 1: about lazy analysis or anything. I think you just you 1296 01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:59,360 Speaker 1: gotta be very careful that putting together elite careers, like 1297 01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:02,800 Speaker 1: good players have a down year and early on in 1298 01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:08,680 Speaker 1: your career, the more information these defensive coordinators have on you, 1299 01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:11,599 Speaker 1: the more difficult it gets. I'm with you. I would 1300 01:10:11,640 --> 01:10:16,120 Speaker 1: be stunned if we look at the Commanders and their 1301 01:10:16,200 --> 01:10:20,960 Speaker 1: offense feels like the Houston Texans did last year. But 1302 01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:23,400 Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin is a question mark, and I would say 1303 01:10:23,439 --> 01:10:27,000 Speaker 1: the more and more Cliff Kingsbury has coached typically as 1304 01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:29,559 Speaker 1: the years have gone on, it happened in Arizona now 1305 01:10:29,600 --> 01:10:32,840 Speaker 1: obviously Jade and I like more and Kyler, but like 1306 01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:36,400 Speaker 1: has he adapted, has he changed. You know, some of 1307 01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:41,559 Speaker 1: the stuffs out of Jayden's control. Now, when you throw, 1308 01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:43,200 Speaker 1: when you're that good in the pocket, when you throw 1309 01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:45,000 Speaker 1: that beautiful of a deep ball, when you have that 1310 01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:47,720 Speaker 1: ability to run. Yeah, I mean, I don't expect to 1311 01:10:47,800 --> 01:10:50,920 Speaker 1: fall off. But is he more likely to throw twenty 1312 01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:55,920 Speaker 1: eight touchdowns or fifty touchdowns? Football's heart. We see plenty 1313 01:10:55,920 --> 01:10:58,320 Speaker 1: of all time quarterbacks finish their careers on different teams, 1314 01:10:58,360 --> 01:11:00,760 Speaker 1: Brady to the Bucks, Peyton to the Broncos. Hypothetically, if 1315 01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:03,120 Speaker 1: you had to place a bet, which of the top 1316 01:11:03,400 --> 01:11:06,519 Speaker 1: which of these quarterbacks will end up leaving their current 1317 01:11:06,560 --> 01:11:09,000 Speaker 1: team first, whether it be because the player or the 1318 01:11:09,080 --> 01:11:12,799 Speaker 1: organization decision, Who would it be and why? Patrick Mahomes, 1319 01:11:12,920 --> 01:11:18,000 Speaker 1: Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson. I would say Patrick Mahomes 1320 01:11:18,040 --> 01:11:21,920 Speaker 1: one percent would not be would be dead last on 1321 01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:26,439 Speaker 1: the list of going to another team. Listen, you never 1322 01:11:26,439 --> 01:11:29,080 Speaker 1: say never, like you said Peyton and Tom Brady, but 1323 01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:32,320 Speaker 1: it would have to get really, really ugly. I would 1324 01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:36,360 Speaker 1: say Lamar just because I think that's a good question. 1325 01:11:36,400 --> 01:11:41,080 Speaker 1: I don't know, but Josh Allen get hurt too. I'd 1326 01:11:41,120 --> 01:11:45,519 Speaker 1: probably go one A Lamar, one B Josh and then 1327 01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:50,240 Speaker 1: like at twenty five, Patrick Mahomes, I wouldn't even include 1328 01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:53,599 Speaker 1: any of those three. I'd include Joe Burrow. I would 1329 01:11:53,600 --> 01:11:56,439 Speaker 1: say Joe Burrow. I mean, look what Carson Palmer once 1330 01:11:56,520 --> 01:12:01,200 Speaker 1: upon a nime did I quit? So I would say 1331 01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:03,080 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow would be the guy over Josh Allen and 1332 01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:05,880 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. And Lamar Jackson won two MVPs and could 1333 01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:07,960 Speaker 1: have won his third last year. Josh Allen just won 1334 01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:11,400 Speaker 1: the MVP. Those guys aren't going anywhere. It'd be Joe Burrow. 1335 01:12:13,080 --> 01:12:15,800 Speaker 1: Do you see Roger Goodell pulling in Adam Silver and 1336 01:12:15,840 --> 01:12:19,040 Speaker 1: forcing a star player to a great team. I say 1337 01:12:19,080 --> 01:12:22,200 Speaker 1: this because what would Joe Burrow look like with Sean 1338 01:12:22,280 --> 01:12:27,080 Speaker 1: McVay speaking of Joe Burrow. Uh, you know a lot 1339 01:12:27,120 --> 01:12:32,439 Speaker 1: of people have said John conspiracy conspiracy theorist, like you 1340 01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:36,760 Speaker 1: saying that Adam Silver forced Luca to the Lakers and 1341 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:40,280 Speaker 1: then gave the Mavericks Cooper flag. The difference is the 1342 01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 1: reason that conspiracy conspiracy theory was somewhat believable is because 1343 01:12:45,960 --> 01:12:49,720 Speaker 1: markets really matter in the NBA. The NBA Finals with 1344 01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:54,200 Speaker 1: Indiana and Oklahoma City, for like a stretch of their 1345 01:12:54,200 --> 01:12:57,080 Speaker 1: three games, game two, game three, Game four in Game five, 1346 01:12:57,439 --> 01:13:01,280 Speaker 1: So really four games did like two million more views 1347 01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:04,640 Speaker 1: than the Hall of Fame game. But if it had 1348 01:13:04,680 --> 01:13:07,679 Speaker 1: been Lakers Knicks, they would have done twenty million people watching. 1349 01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:12,639 Speaker 1: Last year the World Series Dodgers Yankees, what happened huge ratings. 1350 01:13:13,120 --> 01:13:17,360 Speaker 1: Baseball and basketball are very dependent on the markets and 1351 01:13:17,479 --> 01:13:20,799 Speaker 1: the superstar players. But the superstar players on the big markets. 1352 01:13:21,280 --> 01:13:25,360 Speaker 1: The NFL is unfaced. You could have Chiefs Cardinals and 1353 01:13:25,400 --> 01:13:28,200 Speaker 1: one hundred million people are gonna watch. Now, if you 1354 01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:31,519 Speaker 1: got Cowboys trying to think who's the biggest team in 1355 01:13:31,560 --> 01:13:33,240 Speaker 1: the AFC, well, I mean technically is a Chief It 1356 01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:36,679 Speaker 1: just doesn't matter. It just does not matter. Cowboys haven't 1357 01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:39,720 Speaker 1: made the conference championship game in thirty five years, and 1358 01:13:39,800 --> 01:13:43,920 Speaker 1: it has not matter thirty five years, thirty years. It's 1359 01:13:43,960 --> 01:13:46,880 Speaker 1: a great question though, when on this saw the other 1360 01:13:46,960 --> 01:13:49,320 Speaker 1: day you were discussing what defines award adding and you 1361 01:13:49,360 --> 01:13:53,200 Speaker 1: mentioned mahomes lamar Burrow but left off hurts. By your 1362 01:13:53,240 --> 01:13:58,040 Speaker 1: definition and what we've seen, he's proven to be just that. Yeah, 1363 01:13:58,160 --> 01:14:01,000 Speaker 1: I would include him. I can't list everybody all the time. 1364 01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:04,000 Speaker 1: I think a lot of these quarterbacks are really tough. 1365 01:14:04,520 --> 01:14:08,760 Speaker 1: I think most good quarterbacks are tough guys. It's hard 1366 01:14:08,760 --> 01:14:10,960 Speaker 1: to be a good quarterback and not be a tough guy. 1367 01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:14,840 Speaker 1: And Jalen is I mean, you can't be that good 1368 01:14:14,840 --> 01:14:18,040 Speaker 1: at the toush push and be that strong and not 1369 01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:21,559 Speaker 1: be a tough SOB. So yes, I would say Jalen 1370 01:14:21,640 --> 01:14:26,760 Speaker 1: Hurts is a war daddy. But most good quarterbacks are 1371 01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:30,880 Speaker 1: gonna be, you know, war daddies, right, especially running quarterbacks 1372 01:14:31,680 --> 01:14:36,920 Speaker 1: Lamar Cam Newton, Michael Vick, Jalen Hurts, I listen, Kyler's 1373 01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:42,400 Speaker 1: not a US Jayden Daniels. I think these guys, it's 1374 01:14:42,400 --> 01:14:45,080 Speaker 1: hard to be a good quarterback, especially if running is 1375 01:14:45,160 --> 01:14:50,519 Speaker 1: part of your repertoire, and not be pretty dynamic with 1376 01:14:50,560 --> 01:14:53,599 Speaker 1: your physical toughness and mental toughness. So I would say yes, 1377 01:14:53,720 --> 01:14:56,880 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts would fall into the category of war daddy. 1378 01:15:00,160 --> 01:15:00,799 Speaker 1: The volume
