• 0:45
  Speaker 2: So you're not so crazy because you're alone.

  Speaker 1: Man. What I really liked though, is that no one
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: was talking about the Cowboys. I kind of was liking.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: That you weren't, because when no one talks about them,
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: it means they're not very good.

  Speaker 1: Right, And that's when we were going to surprise.
• 1:01

• 1:20

• 1:23
  Speaker 2: For a ninth year, in a row Y'ahoo Sports simulated
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: an entire NFL season using the Madden video game. In
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: this year, the simulation picked the Dallas Cowboys to win
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. Dude, that would be This is the
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: closest he's gotten to it in so long, because this
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: is actually exciting.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: For him, so excited I could taste it.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: Beating the Denver Broncos thirty one to fourteen behind a
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: dominant rushing attack led by Dak Prescott.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: What that's when you know it's false.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Da can run, he can run.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: No it Since he broke his leg, it's definitely a
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: whole different ball game for him.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been different, dude, But look how Jack de
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: is though that what is that doing? Put your shoulders
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: down in plow people, That's what it means.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: Hey, you don't want that from your quarterback, do you.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: Josh Allen does it all the time and has he
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: won a Super Bowl?
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: No, he's not. YEA.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: On a flip side, Madden projected the Jets to be
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: two and fifteen, so definitely sounds probable. All right, Yeah,
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: any new news with the WNBA that you've seen recently?
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: No, I haven't seen anything. What are they doing over there?
• 2:24

• 2:26
  Speaker 2: got fired? It just happened.
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: Okay, then no, have I seen the wrong thing? You
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: can look at where she fired up maybe or something.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Have you seen those memes where it's like somebody fired
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: in a small letters he goes up to be the
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: next leader people are. The problem with that is I don't.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: I haven't seen she was fired.
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: Okay, then I'm probably wrong. It is like two days ago.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Why would she get fired?
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: I don't. I don't know.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: I just not very well liked. And there's been she
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: was doing a press conference and she was saying, hey,
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: everybody on the internet relaxed because there was a video.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: I think it was after the there was a maybe
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: even after the Sophe Cunningham thing where she goes out
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: and checks on the other player first and not your
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: own team. Yeah, own player, Oh dang, but who knows
• 3:05

  Speaker 2: you fact check me on that?
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: How many w I have no idea.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Dude, did you say ten?

• 3:27
  Speaker 2: them off, but it's on my phone, but go ahead.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: I could probably do five or six.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: What can you name?
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Indiana fever?
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Indiana Fever? That's correct? Do you have to do the
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: city and the yeah, because otherwise if you just do
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: the city, that's kind of cheating because you're just chasing
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: NBA cities.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Okay, okay? Uh, Chicago Sky.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Two LA Sparks, three Vegas aces. Oh wow?
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Good? One one of them is the sun? What's the sun?
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: It can't be the Phoenix Son because there's already the
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Phoenix Sons. All right, give me Phoenix Son.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: No, the sun is an etiquette, that's right, because it's
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: the Mohegan Sun. It's not because of how hot the
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: sun is. It's because of that. I believe that's what
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: it is. Moving to Houston.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: Oh are they really didn't know that?
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Again? Guys, I just read stuff. I'm pretty sure they're
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: moving to Houston.
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: Well, the coach has not been fired, by the way, okay, yes,
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: in twenty twenty seven, they are moving to Houston.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: Wow, yeah, okay, how many do I get? Five? I
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: think that's it?
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Okay, Well let me think.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Mmm, there's got I haven't said any Texas ones, right,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: there's got to be Texas ones.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Well, you know it's not Houston because Houston doesn't have
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: a team yet. The right of the Sun.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: I would think Dallas would have one. No, I don't know.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: That's it. I'm done.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Okay, so you got five out of fifteen. Okay, thirty
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: three percent if I give you the city, give me
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: what you think the mascot is.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Okay, you got it.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: And some of these, you know, but the Atlanta.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: The Atlanta hmm, the Atlanta Brave Vets. I have no idea.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: Interesting, I have no idea.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: So are they kind of hawk?
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: No, I've never heard a team named this before. And
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: my assumption, I'm gonna do a lot of assuming and
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna kind of count on you as a fact
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: check me as we go that this name is based
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: off of civil rights.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: The Atlanta Roses Roses.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: No, that would be some I mean it would yeah,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: that'd be kind of cool.
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you are correct, Bobby, really yep.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: So the Kings, Okay, you're getting closer. The Martin Luther's okay,
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: but no, but you're in You're in the You're in
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: the ballpark, the rev revs. No, but what's something famous?
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Go back to where you were just at Go Martin Luther.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: What's something famous about him?
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: The dreams, the dream Oh, the dream the Atlanta dreams.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Oh wow, that's really cool. I like that, all right.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: The Chicago Okay, it's got to be some kind of bear.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: You've already nailed it. You said it earlier.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Yes, And why are they sky Skyline?
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: I'd assume Okay, Wendy City sky Skyline?
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: Yep?
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Is that right?
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Yep?
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Okay, the Connecticut Sun, which I do believe is the
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Mohegan Son because I think they played in like the
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Mohegan Sun Arena or something.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Okay, they're moving.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: To Houston because Connecticut Son doesn't make sense because it'd
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: be the Connecticut Cold.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: Seems purchased and ownership by the Mohegan Native American tribe.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay, Dallas. I knew this makes no sense
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: to me, and I'm sure I'm missing something. But all
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: I know about the Dallas team is that Pagebacker's place
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: for them?
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: See, man, they missed, they missed on this, and they
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: should have been the cowgirls.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: That feels like childlike the Dallas Cowgirls does. Does the
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys sound childish?
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: No, because cowboys are a real thing. But I'd say
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: girls are cowboys. If there's a woman and she's like,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: I think she's a cowboy, like in real life, like
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: in real life ride and horses. I don't think you go,
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: there's three cowboys and two cowgirls out there. I think
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: it's all five cowboys.
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: I need a hint on this one.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: I don't have it hin.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: It doesn't make sense.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: I don't know why. And I bet you there's a reason.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: I bet it's like a Pegasus horse or something.
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: Oh okay, did you really just throw that?
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Is it a Pegass horse?
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: Well? Yeah, draws inspiration from that?
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: No? What?
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: What?
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: What's what? I don't have it up. I just have
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: the teams up. So okay, I don't have any research.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: It's are you gonna you can guess the Pegas horse?
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: The mobiles?
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: What?
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: What the do you thinking of the gas station? Like
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: the Yeah, because that's a that's a sign on the skyline.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: There's a neon the pegasus on the buildings.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: What does a pegasus horse do?
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Fly? Okay, flyers?
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: Okay? Close?
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Wings?
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: Yes, there you go, the Dallas wings. What does it say?
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Why is it the Dallas mascot?
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: The Pegasus has served as the grief mythology symbol of
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: Dallas since nineteen thirty four.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Okay, so there is that symbol on one of the
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: buildings downtown at Magnolia Building. Like we're even learning about
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: our own country here, this one. I would get it,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: but I don't know why they're named this Golden State
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: and this is the newest team, I believe. I don't
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: even know what this is.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: The Golden State bridges.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: No, that would be fun. Yeah, the London bridges or
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: the Golden gate Bridge.
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: Your bridges on not bridges.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: This to me feels like a viking, like a Minnesota viking.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: But I don't know what it.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Is, Okay, close, Golden State.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: It feels like somebody in a boat that's like taking
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: over land. Is that what that is? Or is it
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: kind of like a demon?
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: Uh?
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: No, warrior?
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: Okay, I know it from a Marvel movie.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: So it's a kind of warrior. That's kind of cool.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: It's a playoff with then the warrior.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Do you know what it is? The valkyrie?
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: What's a valkyrie?
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: I would have never heard that. Inspired by fearless, powerful
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: warrior woman from Norse mythology.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, don't know that one.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: A lot of mythology here.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Indiana fever boom, Las Vegas aces my scambling boom. I
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: wonder why the fever? Let's think about that. Why is
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: Indiana the fever most flu in the winter?
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: Indiana?
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: What's hot about Indiana? Or that gives you the fever?
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: That chill? So the Pacers are like the pace car
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: from the race Car, right, Pacery five hundred? Yeah?
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the Colts they came from Baltimore.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so a name that migrated with the team. Why
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: the Fevers named the fever?
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: What's it say?
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: A tribute to the intense passionate basketball culture.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not And it's my favorite team. And let's
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: make it a Los Angeles Sparks kind of makes sense.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: L A sparkly yeah, fire sparkly like glit. Yeah, that's

  Speaker 2: is not on the periodic table. No, but it is
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: something that is not man made. It is natural, but
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: finding it changed the course of mankind finding it and
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: creating it.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: Light.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: You're almost there, bulb. Almost go further the opposite way, though,

  Speaker 2: Okay, but the opposite of freezers, no no, no, no, no, no, no,
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: the opposite okay, but the opposite of freezing.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Melting, the melting pot.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: If I played Passport with Eddie and we were on TV,
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: I might just stab them in the neck right in
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: the middle of the show. He said, the opposite of freezing,
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: the melt melt melting? What did modern what did man discover?
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: The fire? They are fire Portland fire, and I would
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: assume because thoughts trees up there.
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: Forest fires celebrates Portland's athletic passion and resilience, paired with
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: a modern logo featuring a rose on fire as a
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: nod to the Rose City.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: That's lame and the Trailblazers because they are the trailblazers.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: But the rose is stupid. I mean, rose would have work. Sorry,
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: the fire thing is stupid. Rose would at least work,
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: is it would have made sense called the Rose City.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: But fire.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: I have never heard of the Portland fires.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: Just another fire?
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: Oh fire, Yeah, never heard of the light bulbs?
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: Seattle. There's only three left?
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Are they? Something like like like the hockey team? What
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: are the grackles or something? Crackles crackles, you know, like, yeah, yeah, cracking.
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: That's the NHL team. It's nothing like that.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: Okay, Seattle, the Seattle rain, that'd be great. Why did
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: they call themself the rain?
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: Okay, you're so close, really, thunderstorms, You're very close. You're
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: dancing on top of it. The Seattle storm. Yeah, there's
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: two left. I'd bet one hundred bucks you don't get
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: this one.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: What do you got?
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: I've never heard of this one.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: That's crazy that we've never heard of a team, a
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: professional team Toronto. Oh the Toronto Bagetts, Well that be
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: frank A Paris. Yeah, they're French there.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: No, that's well Montreal is probably it would.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: Be more like the bag d Oh, they don't speak French.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: They probably probably some give me a hint, like what's
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: it element?
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: If this? This would work better in Nashville. Oh, guitars,
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: No ed worked.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: The music notes.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not directly on music, but it's something.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: That that's slight music.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but it could also be used in other forms
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: of oh sound people like people. I don't know why
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Toronto would pick this out than the alliteration.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: People, Oh Toronto. So it's with a te Toronto talkers Toronto.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: If people are moving around quickly, travelers, Okay, if they're
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: moving around quickly, but also it has something to with music.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: They're not together not it's not people moving around dancing.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: But I'm saying independently it could be the tangos, it
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: could be people how they're moving around, but it could
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: also be something that's used in music. How it's defined
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: the Toronto travel clefts. That's too musical.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: Okay, it's.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna get's gonna give it to you.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: But like the speed of a song tempos, the Toronto
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: I've never heard of that. Are they good?
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: I've never heard of either? And now have WNBA League pass?
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah you do.
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a public name your teen campaign.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well that was a joke.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: Oh that's a bad one.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: Like, let's say we win this one.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: The bag gats are better?
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah, thank you.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: One more. I think you might get this one because
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: I think it might ring a bell. Come on, the Washington.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: Wizards, the Washington Congress.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: No, but you're more in the ballpark with the first
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: one Wizards, because obviously that's the NBA team, and I
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: think this is probably based off of that.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: The Washington it is. Yeah, but I don't even know
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: why the NBA team is called the Wizards.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Probably alliteration, but I don't know, right because they were
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: the Bullets, and they had to change from bullets. You
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: can't be a bullets.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: Were they the bullets?
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: That's a cool name. I don't know. The Washington Bullets
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: was kind of cool.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: It was cool, but I wonder what maybe I lost
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: shootings in DC.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: You know, let's just do it crime, how to crime,
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: go with it.
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: They were the Packers at one point.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Their big rival was the Memphis Carjackers.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: They were so good, scrappy team, scrappy.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: Scrappy, Saint Louis Home invaders, the city's highest crime rates,
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: like crime thing.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Oh man, all right, what are we doing? Washington? The Washers,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: the Washington.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: There's no alliteration, but it's close to like it's in
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: the ballpark of the Wizards, like it's based off the Wizards.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: Okay, the witches. Ye oh, that'd be crazy, the Washington Witches.
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: But no, no alliteration, but you're you're dancing in it.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: M fortune tellers, the Washington.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: If we were to do charades acted out, yeah I can,
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: but it's just okay magicians. No, okay, ready, here we go.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: One first word, first word? One who knows? What are
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: you doing with that?
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: One?
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Bubby? The other? One word? One word? Got it?
• 20:01
  Speaker 6: Oh?
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: The god, the lizard, the sweaty lizard. The do that again.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: We'll do what you're doing again. Oh, I'm surprised. What's
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: on my skin? I have it all over my skin.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: I can't get it off. It's all over me. I'm
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: a goo goo. You have goo all over you. Dude,
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: I'm from Wizard. I don't even know where we're going
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: the Wizards.
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: I don't know what else I could do.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: But what were you doing? Can you describe what you
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: were doing?
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: If I tell you, you'll know what it is. You
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: know what I was doing?
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know the name of the Yeah, you
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: have to look up the name of that.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: I wasn't doing rain, but I was doing oh snow, no.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: Light, rain, drizzles, the drizzles, missed the mystic that's it.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: There are the mystics. Nice, I've heard of that.
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's it.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: That's interesting. You're the way you acted out missed.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: What kind of turned pervy when I was like licking myself. Yeah,
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: I just want to show those like water and it
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: could be No, I got you. Okay, Well we can
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: do real sports now you want to Mike going to break? Yeah,
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: it's break, all right, come back with Mike Sando. We'll
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: talk quarterback tiers. That is coming up. All right, Let's
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: welcome in Mike Sando, senior NFL writer for The Athletic
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: and The Man behind the annual NFL Quarterback Tiers project.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: It's one of the best off season windows for me
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: into how coaches, executives, and decision makers view quarterbacks. This year, Mike'
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: served fifty NFL coaches and executives, so twenty one execs,
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: twenty nine coaches, and had them place thirty five veteran
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: quarterbacks into five tiers. I listened to him when he's
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: on every other show, so I'm super pumped he's on
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: with us. Mike, thank you for the time.
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: Hey, I love it, and you've done your homework. That's
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: good detail. I'm excited for the conversation based off of that.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: I'm curious and with Tier one, obviously we were gonna
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: have too, which is Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes. I'm
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: curious if anyone thought maybe we wouldn't put Mahomes in
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: Tier one because of his injury.
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: No, there was no hesitation there.
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: I think that one thing about the quarterback tiers for
• 22:16
  Speaker 6: the most part, sometimes it's.
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: Like a little bit of a delay on the reaction
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: to things.
• 22:22
  Speaker 6: So somebody like that is so well respected, and I
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: don't think it's declining physically like I think we've seen
• 22:27
  Speaker 6: other players Peyton Manning at the end, you know, couldn't
• 22:30
  Speaker 6: really throw, or Drew Brees's arm left.
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: Him when he was way up there.
• 22:34
  Speaker 6: Those guys get knocked down, and obviously Aaron Rodgers has
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: gone way down. But I don't think anyone sees, you know,
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: a drop off in his play physically. Obviously there's an injury,
• 22:43
  Speaker 6: but he's kind of in the Tom Brady chair, I think,
• 22:46
  Speaker 6: where you're not just completely doing a new evaluation every
• 22:51
  Speaker 6: year probably on him. There were those some acknowledgments that
• 22:56
  Speaker 6: this is, you know, it's kind of getting to the
• 22:58
  Speaker 6: point where it's time to you know, have a that
• 23:01
  Speaker 6: a great, great season for him.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Do the executives or the coaches that you talk to
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: and just to stay on Mahomes for a second, do
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: they factor in the support that these players have, meaning
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: wide receivers or running backs, because that's what I think
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: about Mahomes, like he hasn't had a lot of help.
• 23:18
  Speaker 6: Totally agree, I think for I think he has earned
• 23:22
  Speaker 6: it so much because he's been such a great quarterback
• 23:24
  Speaker 6: winning championships, and he's won a championship without having a
• 23:26
  Speaker 6: great defense too in the past. But when you take
• 23:30
  Speaker 6: away everything and you basically have you know, no good
• 23:33
  Speaker 6: weapons and no run game.
• 23:34
  Speaker 5: I mean, that's about as hard as it can get.
• 23:36
  Speaker 6: And I think we've seen Mahomes do the best he can,
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: especially using his legs, running for his life sometimes and
• 23:42
  Speaker 6: just to keep drives alive. They become a team that
• 23:45
  Speaker 6: the Chiefs games have fewer possessions in the inner game,
• 23:47
  Speaker 6: you know, because they're just grinding it out, and that's
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: Mahomes just doing maybe burning the candle at both ends
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: to do it, and it caught up to him physically.
• 23:55
  Speaker 6: So yes, people understand that and give him the benefit
• 23:59
  Speaker 6: of the doubt. With that, somebody like Justin Herbert, you know,
• 24:02
  Speaker 6: at a certain point, I think the reasons for his
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: not getting over the hump feel like excuses. And I
• 24:07
  Speaker 6: think a few people have put him even in tier three,
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: so he doesn't have the he gets some benefit of
• 24:12
  Speaker 6: the doubt.
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: He's the top of tier two, near the top.
• 24:14
  Speaker 6: But you know, there's less patience for somebody who hasn't
• 24:17
  Speaker 6: really done it at any point in his career.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: And I guess the last twenty five years or so
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: of me, like really paying attention to sports, even on
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: a somewhat granular level, I've never seen anything like Matthew
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: Stafford where the guy is really good and then it's
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: is he going to retire? He has to announce he's
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: not going to retire because he's getting you know, quote
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: unquote so old. But then he's a ninety nine on
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: Mad and then he's still tier one. I've never seen
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: it happen like this before.
• 24:42
  Speaker 6: Absolutely, And I think that's so when he was in Detroit,
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: everyone said tier one talent, but there's something missing, is
• 24:48
  Speaker 6: a bad organization, he's risking the ball too much, you
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: know whatever, And I think you do see that talent
• 24:56
  Speaker 6: coming into a really good situation with a good code
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: and a good team around him made a huge difference
• 25:04
  Speaker 6: for him now. Also, they sort of remember that he
• 25:07
  Speaker 6: had a couple of years there where it was kind
• 25:08
  Speaker 6: of cautioned to the wind with the drop back passing game,
• 25:11
  Speaker 6: and I think that that ended up being, you know,
• 25:14
  Speaker 6: maybe being too much, like it's too much of a
• 25:17
  Speaker 6: good thing, and Stafford needs some some rains or just
• 25:21
  Speaker 6: some structure. And I think mcveighs done a good job
• 25:24
  Speaker 6: of reincorporating the run game, you know, putting him under
• 25:27
  Speaker 6: center some Obviously they do the thirteen personnel which is
• 25:31
  Speaker 6: even though those guys can spread out, it's not just
• 25:33
  Speaker 6: a light spread offense. So I think that's helped him
• 25:38
  Speaker 6: as he's gotten older a little bit, the way you
• 25:40
  Speaker 6: know Rogers was helped by it in Green Bay when
• 25:44
  Speaker 6: to a greater degree they went to a you know,
• 25:48
  Speaker 6: under center type of an offense and saved him from himself.
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: A little bit.
• 25:53
  Speaker 6: As an older player who doesn't move around as well,
• 25:56
  Speaker 6: you don't want to have to be back there, just
• 25:58
  Speaker 6: just drop back pass.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: All the time, we talked about Mahomes and how there
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: could be at LA or he just deserves Tier one
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: because of what he's done even though he was injured
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: into last year going into this year. But Joe Burrow
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: has been injured so much and he's in Tier one.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: I feel like that injury conversation is a bit different
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: because Mahomes is kind of a one off that happened
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: at the end of the year, Like will he be back?
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: Does that factor in whatever a player has been injured
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: multiple times over.
• 26:23
  Speaker 5: Years, Yes, and I thought it might factor in more
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: with Burrow.
• 26:27
  Speaker 6: But I do say this, if you look at the
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: definition of Tier one, carries his team each week, expertly
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: handles peer pass situations. That's when both teams know we
• 26:36
  Speaker 6: have to pass the ball. Who's more nervous our guys
• 26:39
  Speaker 6: or their guys? And Burrow is the epitome of the
• 26:42
  Speaker 6: one who the defense fears when he's going to throw
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: the ball. He's a great passer, and I think that
• 26:48
  Speaker 6: is always going to carry the day more than duel
• 26:52
  Speaker 6: threat where the passing's okay, are good.
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: And so you combine the fact that he's.
• 26:58
  Speaker 6: He's been to a super Bowl and he's so he's
• 27:02
  Speaker 6: had some playoff success, certainly more than like a Lamar
• 27:05
  Speaker 6: Jackson or Justin Herbert, and he's seen as maybe the
• 27:09
  Speaker 6: best passer in the league. I think that shows you
• 27:12
  Speaker 6: what the voters value and why he's there instead of
• 27:15
  Speaker 6: slipping to the top of tier two, where Lamar Jackson is.
• 27:19
  Speaker 6: He fell out of Tier one narrowly, but fell out
• 27:21
  Speaker 6: of Tier one and had had a hard time being
• 27:24
  Speaker 6: in Tier one before that because he was perceived to
• 27:27
  Speaker 6: He's perceived, in the absence of playoff success, to really
• 27:31
  Speaker 6: be reliant on the running, which you know, doesn't hold
• 27:36
  Speaker 6: up as well in the mind of voters in terms
• 27:39
  Speaker 6: of you know, when the game gets really hard and
• 27:41
  Speaker 6: you got to throw the ball, that's not as big
• 27:44
  Speaker 6: of a factor.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: Did most of the people you talk to consider Josh
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: Allen to be the best quarterback in the NFL right now?
• 27:50
  Speaker 6: I don't know about that, because Mahomes finished ahead of him.
• 27:52
  Speaker 6: I think you could say that if we're playing a
• 27:56
  Speaker 6: game tomorrow, set aside Mahomes' injury, like on any given day,
• 28:01
  Speaker 6: Josh Allen might be a tougher matchup. Does that make you,
• 28:05
  Speaker 6: you know, a better quarterback sometimes when it matters, right?
• 28:09
  Speaker 6: And I don't think the league was quite ready to
• 28:12
  Speaker 6: say that, although I'm sure you know. I think some
• 28:15
  Speaker 6: of the voters do think that Josh Allen may be
• 28:18
  Speaker 6: the maybe the best right now, but I don't think
• 28:21
  Speaker 6: it's overwhelming.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: We have a massive Dallas Cowboys fan on this show
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: that is not me, but he is Dak one hundred
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: percent all the time. Dak makes Tier two? Where does
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: Dak fall in Tier two?
• 28:33
  Speaker 6: So Dak Prescott moved up five spots. It was one
• 28:35
  Speaker 6: of the big surprises to me. He got as many,
• 28:38
  Speaker 6: just about as many Tier one votes this year as
• 28:40
  Speaker 6: he's gotten his whole career before that. I didn't see
• 28:42
  Speaker 6: it coming because I just always thought Hey, Dak's good,
• 28:44
  Speaker 6: not great. I think most voters see him that way.
• 28:47
  Speaker 6: But something happened for him to move up, and I
• 28:51
  Speaker 6: think some of it is some of that stuff around
• 28:54
  Speaker 6: him is pretty good now and so maybe that helps
• 28:55
  Speaker 6: him shine. But I think I wonder if there's some
• 29:00
  Speaker 6: acknowledgement of two things. One that you know, the playoff
• 29:04
  Speaker 6: stuff's always been what people point to with him, but
• 29:07
  Speaker 6: it's kind of a thirty year problem with some pretty
• 29:09
  Speaker 6: good quarterbacks, at least him and Dak and Romo. And
• 29:13
  Speaker 6: is Jerry Jones getting a little bit of, uh more
• 29:16
  Speaker 6: of the blame for that in the absence of Dak
• 29:18
  Speaker 6: having just blown up in the playoffs recently. I think
• 29:20
  Speaker 6: if if Dak had a four interception game in the
• 29:22
  Speaker 6: play if they'd made the playoffs last year and had
• 29:24
  Speaker 6: a bad game, I think it would hurt him more
• 29:26
  Speaker 6: than missing the playoffs, if that makes sense in terms
• 29:29
  Speaker 6: of where he's at. It's been a while since since
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: he's had the bad playoff game. And then also I
• 29:34
  Speaker 6: think the league's gotten so young at the position that
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: Dak has appreciated for his ability to as a veteran
• 29:39
  Speaker 6: quarterback to kind of play the position the way it
• 29:41
  Speaker 6: used to be played. Is somebody who is in command
• 29:44
  Speaker 6: of the whole show, kind of running it and really
• 29:46
  Speaker 6: has a feel for what's going on out there.
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: That's fewer and fewer quarterbacks in the league today.
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: How do these guys feel about Jalen Hurts. We hear
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: a lot of yapp and I see him go to
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: a super Bowl and win a super Bowl, but then
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: everything coming from inside the locker room. But generally the
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: p people who know what do they think?
• 30:01
  Speaker 6: I think they feel like he is limited as a player,
• 30:04
  Speaker 6: and you can't take away those super Bowl moments. If
• 30:07
  Speaker 6: he didn't have those, he'd be a lot lower. Probably
• 30:11
  Speaker 6: he's barely holding on on the border of tier two
• 30:13
  Speaker 6: tier three. I think you could make a case that's
• 30:15
  Speaker 6: too low based on what he's done in two super Bowls.
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: But if we played this game, what if we said,
• 30:21
  Speaker 6: you're a team in this league, would you trade your
• 30:25
  Speaker 6: quarterback for Jalen Hurts? How many would Jalen Hurts be
• 30:29
  Speaker 6: even lower than he is now. I think there's guys
• 30:31
  Speaker 6: below him that you wouldn't want Jalen Hurts to take
• 30:34
  Speaker 6: over for the Saints.
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: Would rather have tighter.
• 30:36
  Speaker 6: Shuck than him, right, I mean, they just would if
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: the Eagles signed Jalen Hurts to a top five money
• 30:44
  Speaker 6: deal in the league right now and said he's won
• 30:46
  Speaker 6: super Bowls, this is our guy for the next five
• 30:48
  Speaker 6: years and we're locking in. Would I think some Eagles
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: fans would be like, good for Jalen, But man, I
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: don't know how would you would you be excited as
• 30:55
  Speaker 6: an Eagles fan or excited as a Cowboys fan?
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the super Bowl, you know, because we say
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: nap Dak didn't win in the playoffs, so we're gonna
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: hurt him a little bit. But you know, with Jalen Hurts,
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: he's been and one it's almost like a double standard
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: that you're holding these guys to. But again, like you
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: and you talk to the guys that know, like they're
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: able to see a lot of things that we aren't
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: able to see. And so the Jalen Hurts thing is
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: so interesting. Even in college, it was the same thing.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: He's amazing, he gets benched, he goes to Philadelphia, he's
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: not good, he starts, he's awesome, he get So it's
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: just been a Jalen Hurt soap opera.
• 31:28
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Like would the would the Cowboys be if those
• 31:33
  Speaker 6: two teams traded quarterbacks.
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: How would the betting lines change.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: This year pretty dramatically, I would think, right, you'd.
• 31:40
  Speaker 6: Think that the Eagles chances would go up and the
• 31:42
  Speaker 6: Cowboys would go down.
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, So that's probably our answer.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: So did Sam Darnold make a big jump?
• 31:49
  Speaker 6: I mean a pretty big jump. I mean he went
• 31:51
  Speaker 6: from Tier three to Tier two. He's he had been
• 31:53
  Speaker 6: in Tier three even when he was with the Jets.
• 31:55
  Speaker 6: I mean, people kind of liked him coming out, But
• 31:58
  Speaker 6: he's not going to make a huge push up farther
• 32:00
  Speaker 6: than that to the top of Tier two because I
• 32:02
  Speaker 6: think people understand that for two years now with Minnesota
• 32:05
  Speaker 6: and cl he's had great defenses and those were really
• 32:08
  Speaker 6: the reasons why his team won primarily.
• 32:11
  Speaker 5: And he did his part.
• 32:12
  Speaker 6: And there were certainly times when they needed him to
• 32:14
  Speaker 6: you know, spin it and drop back and throw the ball,
• 32:16
  Speaker 6: and he did it, including in the championship game against
• 32:19
  Speaker 6: the Rams.
• 32:19
  Speaker 5: You know, he played great.
• 32:21
  Speaker 6: But he's not carrying the team every week, right, he
• 32:24
  Speaker 6: doesn't do that every week. He wouldn't want him to
• 32:26
  Speaker 6: try to do that every week. He's perfect in Tier
• 32:28
  Speaker 6: two because he can do it, but just in doses
• 32:32
  Speaker 6: and so there definitely is a whole or two in
• 32:34
  Speaker 6: his game. He can be loose with the football, you know,
• 32:37
  Speaker 6: that sort of a thing. And so I don't think
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: the sex are nervous having him at quarterback, but they
• 32:43
  Speaker 6: want to keep the context of it the way that
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: it is now instead of saying, we got we're going
• 32:49
  Speaker 6: to be a quarterback driven team.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: Are there any of these guys that are just like
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: a season away with some postseason success to being Tier one?
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: And I think of a guy like maybe a Jordan Love,
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: Like that's who comes to mind? Any of these guys
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: that you think of that's one season away from being
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: respected the higher.
• 33:04
  Speaker 6: Tierily easily Herbert and Lamar Jackson, or they've been in
• 33:07
  Speaker 6: Tier one before, So that's kind of that's a super
• 33:09
  Speaker 6: simple one. I think that Jaden Daniels was at number
• 33:13
  Speaker 6: six after his rookie season and dropped to thirteen some
• 33:17
  Speaker 6: concerns about.
• 33:17
  Speaker 5: The team, injuries, and then his team.
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: He was two and five in the games he started
• 33:20
  Speaker 6: last year, So if he repeated his rookie season, I
• 33:23
  Speaker 6: think he would go to Tier one. I think he'd
• 33:24
  Speaker 6: be right there on the border, but he'd be close,
• 33:27
  Speaker 6: so he could definitely do it. Jordan Love I think
• 33:30
  Speaker 6: would go to the doorstep of Tier two. I do,
• 33:33
  Speaker 6: I think and press probably true of any of those guys,
• 33:36
  Speaker 6: even Jayden Daniels.
• 33:38
  Speaker 5: For the most part. One great season pushes.
• 33:41
  Speaker 6: You to the doorstep for the most part, and you've
• 33:43
  Speaker 6: got to kind of do it again. And so, you know,
• 33:46
  Speaker 6: unless it was just an MVP type season with the
• 33:49
  Speaker 6: playoff push, I think that could get him there, But
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: I don't necessarily anticipate that.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: Does a guy like Aaron Rodgers see this and get
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: mad that he's fallen too? Tier three.
• 33:57
  Speaker 6: Probably probably wouldn't. But yeah, I'm sure he looks at
• 34:01
  Speaker 6: this and goes, you know, it is what it is.
• 34:04
  Speaker 6: But what's interesting about Rodgers is the coach has ranked
• 34:07
  Speaker 6: him a lot higher than the personnel people. The coaches
• 34:10
  Speaker 6: like a guy who can run the whole show, and
• 34:13
  Speaker 6: they you know, you almost don't have to coach him.
• 34:16
  Speaker 6: He's almost coaching your team, and he's almost coaching your coaches.
• 34:20
  Speaker 6: He's coaching the referee when he's out there first name basis,
• 34:24
  Speaker 6: you know when he's when he's he's his cadence is
• 34:27
  Speaker 6: so good. He's going to draw them off side and
• 34:29
  Speaker 6: throw it over their heads on defense. If if you're
• 34:31
  Speaker 6: late subbing on defense, he's going to catch you. All
• 34:32
  Speaker 6: those little nuances of the game, you know, appeal to
• 34:36
  Speaker 6: a coach, but I think a personnel person is looking
• 34:38
  Speaker 6: at it going, we got to this guy might not
• 34:41
  Speaker 6: make it through the season.
• 34:42
  Speaker 5: He can't be our guy. He can't get out of
• 34:44
  Speaker 5: his own way, he can't move.
• 34:45
  Speaker 6: And by the way, when he goes on McAfee and
• 34:47
  Speaker 6: says whatever he's going to say, what's our owner going
• 34:49
  Speaker 6: to think?
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: Right? I think that the GMS feel Rogers differently.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Two guys with extremely high ceilings. But we're gonna wait
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: and see another year. Drake Man Caleb Williams. Your thoughts
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: on those guys and why was Drake ahead of Caleb
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: because they went to the Super Bowl?
• 35:03
  Speaker 6: Basically, yeah, I would say that's probably true. And I
• 35:07
  Speaker 6: think that Caleb Williams is a little more volatile. I
• 35:09
  Speaker 6: think the ceiling could be higher for Caleb Williams on
• 35:12
  Speaker 6: any given day, but maybe the consistency is what needs
• 35:16
  Speaker 6: to be seen there.
• 35:16
  Speaker 5: And so it's.
• 35:17
  Speaker 6: Always a tough one for me when people ask which
• 35:19
  Speaker 6: of those guys is more likely to go to cheer
• 35:22
  Speaker 6: one because I feel like May is a little bit stabler,
• 35:25
  Speaker 6: but also a little bit less, a little bit lower ceiling,
• 35:29
  Speaker 6: you know, in terms of the spectacular plays, I think
• 35:32
  Speaker 6: if we put together a list of every quarterbacks spectacular
• 35:36
  Speaker 6: plays over the last two seasons, you know, the top
• 35:38
  Speaker 6: five of Caleb Williams might be as good as anybody.
• 35:41
  Speaker 6: But when you run around that much, you know some
• 35:43
  Speaker 6: bad things can happen too. So Caleb probably just needs
• 35:47
  Speaker 6: another year. He could pass Drake May. I really think
• 35:50
  Speaker 6: that he could. His rookie season raised so many questions
• 35:54
  Speaker 6: about him and probably put him in a little bit
• 35:57
  Speaker 6: of a hole coming into this year.
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: I like Cam Lord, who never had a shot because
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: the Titans are terrible. He's Tier three, he was also
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: a rookie high ceiling, or he's in such a bad
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: place that who knows.
• 36:12
  Speaker 6: I think there was a wide range of opinions. I
• 36:15
  Speaker 6: think some people were pretty high on it and some
• 36:17
  Speaker 6: people weren't at all. And so my guess is that
• 36:20
  Speaker 6: is that just people's evaluations coming out of college speaking
• 36:22
  Speaker 6: louder than what we've seen, because you do have to
• 36:24
  Speaker 6: discount it a little bit when you factor in it
• 36:27
  Speaker 6: with such a bad situation and even though he played
• 36:29
  Speaker 6: the whole year. I don't think a lot of people
• 36:31
  Speaker 6: were watching him as much either, So I think the
• 36:35
  Speaker 6: jury's very much out on him. As far as a
• 36:38
  Speaker 6: consensus in the league.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: Do people when they give you their votes, is it
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: all anonymous and they're like, Sander, do not tell anybody
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: what I'm voting for.
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: It's a given.
• 36:47
  Speaker 6: H It's a given that I would never do that,
• 36:48
  Speaker 6: But I, you know, people, I have a good relationship
• 36:52
  Speaker 6: that way with people to where we can have really
• 36:55
  Speaker 6: open and frank conversations in this context and they know
• 37:00
  Speaker 6: that I'm going to handle it in a way that
• 37:03
  Speaker 6: doesn't you know, burn them or put them in a
• 37:06
  Speaker 6: bad situation, because otherwise they would be like all these
• 37:08
  Speaker 6: interviews that are done on the record where no one
• 37:11
  Speaker 6: wants to say anything. And that's that's a compromise worth
• 37:14
  Speaker 6: making on a subject like this to really get the
• 37:18
  Speaker 6: unvarnished opinions as long as me, the person putting.
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: It together is tries to be fair to the players too.
• 37:24
  Speaker 6: You can't just put in, you know, off the cuff,
• 37:28
  Speaker 6: personal sounding types of attacks, so I try not to
• 37:33
  Speaker 6: do that.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: Final question, what do these Tier three guys? Could you
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: see the ceiling being high enough that they could eventually
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: be a Tier one guy.
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: Let me let me just refresh myself on it, and.
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: It could be none. It could be none, you know.
• 37:46
  Speaker 6: Bone Yeah, I would say in tier three, I'm just
• 37:49
  Speaker 6: going to go through them. Bonex, I don't think we'll
• 37:51
  Speaker 6: get to Tier one. Rogers, no Stroud, I don't think
• 37:54
  Speaker 6: so high to Daniel Jones, No, Bryce Young, no Kyler Murray,
• 37:57
  Speaker 6: no Dart, I don't think so. I think Dart has
• 37:59
  Speaker 6: to prove it, stay on the field. Cam Ward, I
• 38:02
  Speaker 6: would lean towards no, but jury's out to a no.
• 38:04
  Speaker 6: Tyler Schuck I think could go to high two at
• 38:06
  Speaker 6: some point. I don't know about one.
• 38:08
  Speaker 5: Cousins know. And that's it.
• 38:10
  Speaker 6: So yeah, it's slim pickings for Tier one futures among
• 38:13
  Speaker 6: those guys in my opinion.
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: When I got like, Anthony Richson makes the list and
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: he's not a starter, how do you affect like, how
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: does that affect who you're going to put even put in?
• 38:23
  Speaker 6: So I had a list of I think thirty five
• 38:26
  Speaker 6: quarterbacks made it in, but I probably had forty to
• 38:28
  Speaker 6: start with. So like, for example, I start after the
• 38:31
  Speaker 6: draft when the draft. Once the draft happens. We kind
• 38:33
  Speaker 6: of know the quarterback situations, but Rogers hadn't signed with Pittsburgh.
• 38:37
  Speaker 6: So when I start doing this, I have Rogers on
• 38:39
  Speaker 6: there in case he does. I have Mason Rudolph on
• 38:41
  Speaker 6: there in case, you know, there's somehow for some reason
• 38:43
  Speaker 6: going with.
• 38:44
  Speaker 5: Him right or there.
• 38:45
  Speaker 6: I think there were some other backups around the league,
• 38:48
  Speaker 6: you know that I would have on that list, And
• 38:50
  Speaker 6: then at the end, I'm like, Okay, we don't need
• 38:52
  Speaker 6: to put on this guy because he's not going to
• 38:56
  Speaker 6: compete for the starting job right now, right But in
• 38:59
  Speaker 6: other teams, I would have put to a Tango Vloa
• 39:02
  Speaker 6: and Michael Pennix for the Falcons because we don't really know.
• 39:04
  Speaker 6: In fact, I had three on there for Cleveland, including
• 39:07
  Speaker 6: Dylan Gabriel, because who knows what's going to happen. You know,
• 39:10
  Speaker 6: it could be a situation where Watson, Deshaun Watson reinjures
• 39:14
  Speaker 6: his leg and now they're going to let the other
• 39:16
  Speaker 6: two guys compete.
• 39:17
  Speaker 5: You got to have Gabriel in there. So I do
• 39:19
  Speaker 5: that and then pair it down.
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: You guys can read his articles at The Athletic. One
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: of my favorite writers. This is one of my favorite
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: things all year that comes out. You do such a
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: great job, Mike. Thank you so much for the time,
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: and it gives us something to talk about until games
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: finally start, because man, this is what's so great about
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: We get to finally talk about something I know.
• 39:37
  Speaker 5: I love it. We have actual, tangible stuff, so we're
• 39:40
  Speaker 5: getting there.
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: Thank you. Have a great day.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: All right. Let me run something by you, guys. I
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: have some friends that I haven't seen and probably I
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: don't know fifteen years, it's been a while. They hit
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: me up. They say they're coming to Nashville, Okay, and
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: they want to go get some drinks. It's a couple,
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: they're married, but they're not coming with kids or anything.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: And they're like, maybe we'll go to a bar, take
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: take us downtown, show us around. And I was like, dude,
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: I haven't been downtown like to drink like that in
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: a long time. And I'm thinking, I don't even if
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: I want to catch up with these people. I don't
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: want to take them to a bar and like try
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: to yell over the music. I want to. I want
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: to catch up fifteen years, what's been going on in
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: your life? I feel like I'm too old for.
• 40:29
  Speaker 4: The bars, specifically downtown.
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: I mean, they gotta go.
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: They've never been here.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: They've never been here.
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: You gotta take them downtown.
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: But what am I gonna do?
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: It's not about you. It is, but it isn't. At
• 40:40
  Speaker 4: the same time, like if you've never been to Nashville,
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: no matter your age, like you guys could be like
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: suck it up and be like, you know what, I
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: gotta take them downtown. They got to experience and then
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: maybe like even in like an afternoon and then you
• 40:52
  Speaker 4: guys can go somewhere off downtown after a couple hours,
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: maybe d dinner.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: Day drinking, yeah.
• 40:57
  Speaker 4: They I mean, day drinking is the best.
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: When's the last time you win day drinking?
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: Probably before well, before you got married.
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: No, before the kids.
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: I don't know, at least a year, a year and
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: a half maybe, yeah, but day drinking is the best,
• 41:16
  Speaker 4: especially on Broadway. But they just have to experience at
• 41:19
  Speaker 4: least for a little bit, maybe not the whole time,
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: but just for a little bit.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: To my go to when people are like, hey, I'm
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: coming to town for the day or whatever, like would
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: love to catch up with you. My go to is like,
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: all right, come to the house.
• 41:30
  Speaker 5: That's the best.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, like that's literally what I hit him with.
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: Come to the house, but it's a twenty minute drive.
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: Usually they flew in town, so like they're uber in,
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: it's a long uber And then you got to deal
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: with four kids, like one of them's gonna punch in
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: the nuts at some point, you.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: Know what I mean, Like, I hate Nashville.
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: It's not what they really want to do. But at
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: the same time, I'm like, I don't really want to
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: go to the bars, Mike, what do you think I.
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: Think because it's Nashville, it's such a tourist destination. You
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: have to bite the bulleting. Oh last time I did
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: this when I had somebody in town. I feel like
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: I've aged out of bars at this point at thirty five,
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: because I just started looking around at the people around me.
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, these people look like ten years younger
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: than me. Now, that was the first time I felt
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: too old for the bar exactly.
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, trust me, I feel that way too,
• 42:17
  Speaker 4: especially here in Nashville. It's a younger city, like twenty
• 42:20
  Speaker 4: mid twenties. A lot of people still like living that single, fun,
• 42:24
  Speaker 4: crazy life. So I'm not saying you're wrong.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: There is there a place downtown where they can get
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: that vibe, but at the same time I can actually
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: hear what they're saying and we can talk.
• 42:36
  Speaker 5: No.
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: Two, you can't even walk on Broadway and have a conversation.
• 42:41
  Speaker 4: That's not even in a bar.
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking about.
• 42:43
  Speaker 4: I'm trying to think of something because you know, like
• 42:45
  Speaker 4: every bar has multiple floors. Man, I love Roberts Western World.
• 42:51
  Speaker 4: It's like an older one.
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've seen it.
• 42:53
  Speaker 4: They have a little I think they have a little
• 42:54
  Speaker 4: upstairs area maybe there.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: That's not a bad idea what you saying, Mike.
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: There's a place I like that's my go to. It's
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: La Jackson. It's on the top of a rooftop of
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: a hotel and it's not like downtown Broadway, but there's
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: a like the rooftop. It's kind of spread out where
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: you can still hear the other person talking. It's not
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: like music blaring the entire time. It also depends what
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: time you go.
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: That's a good idea. I think rooftops definitely have that
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: vibe where you can sit and talk. I don't know
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: if they want to rage, like what the wife she
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: rages really like I think she still because she texted
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: me the today like for sure she was drunk and
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: it must have been like three o'clock in the afternoon.
• 43:31
  Speaker 4: Okay, she's a day drinker. Perfect dude. The stage, the roof,
• 43:36
  Speaker 4: rooftop of the stage is really good. It's usually not
• 43:39
  Speaker 4: too crazy. You can get out on the patio and
• 43:40
  Speaker 4: have a conversation. Is your wife, It's just gonna be
• 43:44
  Speaker 4: you, you think.
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: I think that it would probably just be me. I'd
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: love for her to go, but our schedules are so busy, Yeah,
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: that I don't know if she can get away. And
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: that's another thing too, Like how am I gonna tell
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: my wife? Like all right, yeah, see you at three,
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: Like I'm not going to go out and come home
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: at you know, two in the morning.
• 44:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you go out at like one in the afternoon,
• 44:06
  Speaker 4: come home at like seven, Perfect dude.
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: They drinking a part of me, boys, like part of
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: me is like what if I just go back to
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: old Eddie? Oh no, like that that.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: I'm not coming home.
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: I'm going drinking at this boy, when you drink, you
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: always drink with the intention to get drunk. No, I
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: don't do that anymore. And it's shocking to me when
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: people that's still the goal of every night I know.
• 44:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, no, I don't even Yeah, it's crazy. I
• 44:35
  Speaker 4: used to drink. I'm back in the day, like I
• 44:37
  Speaker 4: would want to get blocked out every single night. That
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: was your goal to go out and get blacked out,
• 44:41
  Speaker 4: blocked out. Why, I don't know, because it was just
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: like the Okay, who can get the most f up?
• 44:47
  Speaker 5: Like you or me?
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: Like after a football game in high school, my buddy
• 44:50
  Speaker 4: and I would just grab a bottle each and it's like,
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: you can't get up until you finish that bottle.
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: What on earth, dude? I did not want to go
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: out with you.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: No you didn't.
• 44:58
  Speaker 4: You didn't, but trust me.
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: Now, and we never did. Actually, yeah, yeah we missed.
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: We missed our times.
• 45:04
  Speaker 4: That's true. Huh. When I moved here, like you were
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: out of that face for sure. Yeah, all you guys
• 45:10
  Speaker 4: when I moved here, I got five years ago.
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: Mike was never really in it.
• 45:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: I don't think Mike, have we ever? Nah, you didn't really.
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever drank around you.
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: By the time I got here, I kind of stopped drinking.
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: I would drink like once or twice a year. Yeah,
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: like my early twenties when I went I didn't really
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: go hard because I didn't go out and drink.
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: I didn't go to bars.
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: I would just sit at.
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: Home and drink.
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: My goal every weekend was like, there's gonna be one
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: night where I finished a case of beer. You were
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: a beer drinker. I love beer, Liller lights. I drink
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: Paps blue. I was like any cheap beer and that
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: blue ribbon was my go to, Like getting a six
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: pack of Tall Boys of Paps that was like six dollars.
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: That was my go to.
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: You just sit on the couch and just like watch
• 45:51
  Speaker 4: movies and drink beer.
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: We'd have friends over, like our group of like three
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: or four other nerd friends, and we'd all just drink
• 45:56
  Speaker 3: beer hang out and that was my favorite thing to do.
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: And why did you stop drinking? Like just because you
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: weren't in the mood anymore.
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: I got pretty unhealthy where I would drink and then
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: I'd be like, all right, let's walk and go get
• 46:09
  Speaker 3: some fast food. And it was kind of just like
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: this vicious cycle. And then I got to like three
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: hundred pounds. I was like, I gotta cut the beer.
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: Dude, that's crazy because that did go hand in hand,
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: like if you drank, yeah, it's like we've got to
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: go get water burger. Oh yeah, you gotta go get
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: junk food.
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: And this is when I was living in Austin, So
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: I lived in an apartment where everything around me was walkable.
• 46:29
  Speaker 3: So there was like a taco belly here, a water
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: burger here. I knew it was dark days when I
• 46:33
  Speaker 3: would walk to the lawndo on Silvers, I'm like, I
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: want some.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: Fried fish right now.
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: I want that film that stays in your mouth from
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: the fried food.
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: And the worst thing is you wake up the next
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: day and you're like, oh, I just feel the grease.
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: That's what I was gonna ask you, Kevin, because like
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: you're all black out. You want to get black out.
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: But what were the next days like for you? Ah?
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: Well, when I was younger, I mean, shoot, dude, wake up,
• 46:55
  Speaker 4: dude again hair of the dog? Oh yeah, I hear
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: the dog. Dude again, let's go. What are we doing tonight?
• 46:59
  Speaker 4: Like to plan? But I mean as of even when
• 47:03
  Speaker 4: I moved to Nashville. I was thirty when I moved
• 47:05
  Speaker 4: to here. Yeah, and you know, Nashville is crazy. And
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: the first year I went pretty hard too, and then
• 47:10
  Speaker 4: I realized like, Okay, this isn't I would lay in
• 47:13
  Speaker 4: bed literally all day the next day, like just lay
• 47:15
  Speaker 4: in bed and just watch.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: You knew that was coming, Like you knew that Sunday
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: or whatever day was going to be rest day.
• 47:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, if I had a day, I would never like
• 47:24
  Speaker 4: go out and go ham and then come to here
• 47:27
  Speaker 4: the next day.
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 47:28
  Speaker 4: But yeah, like a Friday or Saturday, I knew I
• 47:30
  Speaker 4: had a whole day. If I wanted to just waste it,
• 47:32
  Speaker 4: I would, And after a year of doing that, I
• 47:34
  Speaker 4: was like, I need to get my my life together.
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: You would, though, dude, I remember when you first moved here.
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: You would go out on my Monday night to go
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: see a show or something.
• 47:43
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, I would say yes to everything because
• 47:45
  Speaker 4: like you want free you want tickets to go see
• 47:47
  Speaker 4: Morgan Wallan or whatever. And I'd be like, absolutely, it's
• 47:50
  Speaker 4: a Wednesday night. I don't care, dude. The craziest for
• 47:53
  Speaker 4: me is like, we're probably here. We moved here, and
• 47:55
  Speaker 4: I'd say, like two years after we moved here, Uh,
• 47:58
  Speaker 4: some guy that worked in our building was like, hey, man,
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: Pearl Jams playing in Memphis.
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: You want to go with me. I'm like, that's not
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: a Thursday night. He's like, let's do it. So we
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: went to Memphis, watched Pearl Jam, drove all night back
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: and I went straight to the radio station.
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, didn't sleep.
• 48:14
  Speaker 4: Don't you look back at that and you're just like,
• 48:15
  Speaker 4: how why, why?
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: Why would you even do that?
• 48:19
  Speaker 4: Like that sounds awful.
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: I want to go downtown to here on a Thursday night.
• 48:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah exactly, Yeah, that sounds awful.
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's crazy, crazy days.
• 48:27
  Speaker 4: So all right, you gotta let us know what you do.
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: Then I'm kind of leaning towards hitting him again with it.
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: Come to the house, and then if they really just
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: want to go out, I'm just gonna say, hey, I'll
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: give you like a couple hours they drinking. Yeah, that's
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: two hours, and I think I'm gonna do a rooftop. Yeah,

• 48:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm jealous.
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: We're definitely at that age though, we're so old.
• 48:52
  Speaker 4: I know that is true. And then even when you
• 48:54
  Speaker 4: do do it, you look forward to it, and then
• 48:55
  Speaker 4: the day comes and you're all tired of like day,
• 48:57
  Speaker 4: I don't even know if I really want to do this.
