  Chris Landry one more segment on a Monday got a Landry football dot Com also
• 0:03
  on x at Landry Football Chris before we kind of peek at the Super Bowl
• 0:07
  and of course we'll talk about that next week in detail. But the Lions
• 0:11
  and Ravens just way too early looking at those teams. Of course, a
• 0:15
  lot it's kind of happen with the draft. We'll see what happens with the
• 0:17
  free agency. Are they going anywhere? Do you anticipate maybe a step back
• 0:22
  just kind of a ten thousand foot quick flyer for both both of those organizations.
• 0:27
  I thought it was interesting what Dan Campbell said last night, and it,
• 0:33
  boy, it shocked me when he said it, because you don't hear
• 0:36
  coaches say this. But it's what I think of all the time. I've
• 0:41
  been blessed in my career to finished several Super Bowls and be on the winning
• 0:49
  in being on the losing end, and I've been in the conference championship games,
• 0:54
  and I tell people that it is the toughest loss that you can have.
• 0:58
  You know, losing the Super Bowl is really tough because you get that
• 1:03
  close to winning it all and you don't get it done. But there's something
• 1:07
  Jake about making it to the super Bowl. It's kind of like making it
• 1:11
  to the Final four. You it's an accomplishment in and of itself. When
• 1:15
  you lose the conference championship game. I mean, that's I mean, it
• 1:21
  sucks. I mean, it is awful. It is in fact, it
• 1:25
  is. It is one of the things that got me out of the business
• 1:30
  and into consulting because ulcers and health problems. I didn't handle it well at
• 1:34
  all. And I just then Campbell said last night, and everybody thinks,
• 1:40
  well, they made this jump in Detroit, and look how it's gone.
• 1:46
  I don't know. I mean, he's built a good culture. We'll see
• 1:49
  if Ben Johnson takes the Washington job, if he's the guy, we'll know
• 1:53
  here in probably twenty four forty eight hours. Who leaves, it's not be
• 2:00
  the same team that the division is getting tough for. Green Bay's really getting
• 2:05
  to better and Young Chicago's getting better. In Minnesota will have to make some
• 2:09
  kicks. This This may have been their best chances is I mean up you
• 2:15
  know that much. I don't know that they're gonna get back. It's just
• 2:21
  remember it when it used to be. At least I remember when it used
• 2:23
  to be where, you know, in their seventies eighties, before they had
• 2:28
  better free agency, you can pick at the end of the season who was
• 2:30
  going to be in the two or three best teams in next year because you
• 2:36
  know who they were going to bring back, and you know you don't necessarily
• 2:38
  know who they were gonna add it. But the young guys will only be
• 2:42
  death pieces. Now it's a crap shoot. I mean, I know Kansas
• 2:45
  City's good every year and gonna be good, but I don't know that I
• 2:47
  can say the same for Detroit. I don't know if they're even a playoff
• 2:51
  team that I think they probably will be, but it's gonna be difficult Baltimore,
• 2:57
  They've got to figure out how to take that next step. They've got
• 3:00
  some of the same issues as well. They've probably got a better overall roster
• 3:04
  than Detroit. But that's what I feel bad. I sit here. I'm
• 3:07
  excited for Kansas City and San Francisco, don't get me wrong, but I'm
• 3:12
  gonna tell you I suffered more in losses like this than I ever enjoyed the
• 3:16
  wins. I know that's bad, fat but I am feeling really bad for
• 3:22
  those and I do every year for the teams that lose, because it may
• 3:25
  never be as good as it was this year, and you've got to fight
• 3:30
  that, and you've got to fight that in your building to make sure that
• 3:34
  you don't allow it to get that way, because you're gonna have to add
• 3:37
  some new pieces, maybe some new coaches, and you know, because some
• 3:40
  of them are gonna leave. I think it's gonna be quite the challenge for
• 3:44
  both of them, particularly Detroit, who they've got to figure out. You
• 3:47
  know, hey, look, this is something that they're going to build on
• 3:51
  now. The expectation is, hey, you're not gonna sneak up on anybody.
• 3:55
  You're going to be expected to win. And that's a different position that
• 3:59
  they've been in obviously in the decades. I know you'll look at it all
• 4:04
  week long, and of course we'll talk about it next week, but just
• 4:06
  way too early. Which way do you lean forty nine Ers or Chiefs.
• 4:12
  It's gonna be hard to convince me that the Chiefs won't win this With Andy
• 4:15
  Reid two weeks to prepare and a Patrick Mahomes, those are two advantages that
• 4:21
  you just did. And I'm just gonna say this. I looked at the
• 4:26
  tape again today and I late last night I was looked at at it.
• 4:30
  I mean, San Francisco got out played by Green Bay and Detroit, and
• 4:34
  they deserve to be here. But I got to tell you they are not
• 4:39
  getting away with that. Against Kansas City. They're going to have to play
• 4:43
  light years better. I thought that they would need to play quite a bit
• 4:47
  better against Detroit. I thought they would beat Detroit. I thought they would
• 4:53
  play a lot better, and they didn't. They got dominated in the first
• 4:57
  half. That Detroit running game absolutely ran over them. And if Kansas City
• 5:03
  can run the football and you've got Mahomes making plays left and right, I
• 5:09
  you know, no, I don't. It's a long way, but I
• 5:13
  can't see myself envisioning ticking anybody but Kansas City in this game. And I'm
• 5:18
  not gonna you know, certainly the Niners are absolutely capable of winning it,
• 5:23
  but not the way they played the last two weeks. I can tell you
• 5:26
  They're gonna have to play better, and if they do, then I'd like
• 5:29
  their chances. I know, their favorite, but they don't look like the
• 5:32
  favorite when I break down the tape, So they got They're gonna have to
• 5:35
  play much better. In my view. Chris Landry talking NFL Football, Monday
• 5:40
  edition of the program on Exit Landry Football Landry football dot com. Chris College
• 5:44
  question, we'll get you on your way here. I was looking at some
• 5:46
  recruiting stuff over the weekend with a lot of the classes that are kind of
• 5:49
  you know, coming together and the final rankings. We'll have the national signing
• 5:53
  they part two in a couple of weeks, but that's kind of a nothing
• 5:56
  burger compared to what we get in December. And you know, when you
• 5:59
  look at the ACC, the boy Miami has really done a great job in
• 6:01
  the transfer portal the last three years they have done good, are very good,
• 6:08
  five, eight, and thirteen on their class rankings. Depending on the
• 6:10
  outlet you look at, you can make a case that they have the best,
• 6:13
  at least on paper this year the best roster talent in the ACC.
• 6:16
  Florida State's right there, Clemson's right there, they get cam Ward. But
• 6:20
  then I look at Mario Cristobal, who's I believe seventy five and seventy four
• 6:25
  in his career, spent some time in what I call the Nick Saban rehabilitation
• 6:30
  camp before he took the job at Oregon, with that roster the way it
• 6:35
  looks, I mean, it looks like they should be really really good this
• 6:39
  year. But then you look at Crystaball, is it fair to say that
• 6:43
  he is somewhat of a liability for any roster if that makes sense. Yeah,
• 6:47
  he looked he's in. First of all, it's the transfer portal in
• 6:53
  the modern age of recruiting is which is what flipped things in the favor of
• 6:57
  Florida State over Clemson, And it's what's putting Miami over Clemson because they're doing
• 7:01
  a better job of acquiring talent thing Clemson is. So they're not just closed
• 7:06
  the gap, they've closed it in going the other way. But you hit
• 7:14
  on it. I think Florida State's the well coached. They did a really
• 7:16
  good job with Mario. It's more than just the debacle against Georgia Tech in
• 7:25
  the sideline mistakes that team underachieves, you know, quarterback development, how the
• 7:30
  players develop in that system. They've got a really good sugar daddy or two
• 7:35
  that's involved in the collective that's allowing them to get a lot of talent and
• 7:39
  they're doing a good job. Can he put a staff together that's going to
• 7:43
  do a better job coaching than what they've done before, or is it going
• 7:46
  to be a contender underachieving I would make from a roster standpoint, I would
• 7:50
  agree with you. They look like the best looking roster in the acc they
• 7:56
  took. You know, cam Ward who's now got experienced in a lot of
• 8:01
  experience, and I think that can be a difference for them. But I
• 8:05
  you know, I don't trust them until I see much more improvement in terms
• 8:11
  of the week to week game planning, in game day adjustments, in sideline
• 8:15
  management that has cost them, and I don't know that I would trust them
• 8:20
  at this stage of being any better until I see it. Chris Landry always
