- 4:43Speaker 8: to get a little thinner back there. Yeah, let's just
- 4:46Speaker 8: grow the hair out one time in my life because
- 4:48Speaker 8: I've never had hair. Yeah, So this was thirteen. I
- 4:52Speaker 8: think I started. I potentially started in Oakland. Maybe I
- 4:59Speaker 8: can't remember when, but I started, but I had it
- 5:01Speaker 8: going into the twenty fifteen season. That's when I had
- 5:05Speaker 8: got it long enough. Man Bun not a big deal.
- 5:08Speaker 8: But then we had our first child in September, and
- 5:13Speaker 8: like later in September, I assume it was later a
- 5:15Speaker 8: couple weeks after Huck was born, we had our newborn pictures. Yeah,
- 5:20Speaker 8: newborn photos, so like it takes a while to get those,
- 5:22Speaker 8: you know, edited or whatever it is. Once I saw them,
- 5:26Speaker 8: I saw the hair that afternoon, it was gone. You
- 5:33Speaker 8: saw it like a professional. I saw a professional photo
- 5:36Speaker 8: of our first child's newborn photos, and I was like, nope,
- 5:41Speaker 8: this isn't it. I've been trying for a while. I
- 5:44Speaker 8: thought i'd look sweet. It didn't look sweet. We looked terrible.
- 5:51Speaker 8: I was sitting in the barber chair that day. Yeah,

- 6:09Speaker 3: end goal was there.
- 6:11Speaker 6: So uh, Jordan, good morning.
- 6:13Speaker 4: Good morning.
- 6:14Speaker 9: I'm doing all right, man, you know it's another day.
- 6:17Speaker 9: But I had a question for y'all because you guys
- 6:19Speaker 9: have been known to be mustache guys always wanted to
- 6:22Speaker 9: commit to a mustache. But how could like howus you
- 6:25Speaker 9: guys got the beers growing back? It's kind of hard.
- 6:28Speaker 9: We you can grow a beard and not, you know,
- 6:29Speaker 9: not fully commit to the mustache. So how can y'all
- 6:31Speaker 9: commit to the Just a stash? Always wanted to just
- 6:34Speaker 9: hop out my dad sometimes just a stash. I don't
- 6:38Speaker 9: feel like I'm just a stash guy, don't know.
- 6:41Speaker 5: Yeah, you just had you got to do it. I mean,
- 6:45Speaker 5: there's one life. You gotta live it.
- 6:46Speaker 9: You only got one life. And it's not like it
- 6:47Speaker 9: doesn't grow back.
- 6:48Speaker 8: Yeah, its situation, right, no person, not like cutting off
- 6:52Speaker 8: a finger, not a beard.

- 15:31Speaker 3: was ten to nothing. Northeastern. This is a two and
- 15:35Speaker 3: six baseball team coming into the game and they jump
- 15:40Speaker 3: on you, and it was ten to nothing after the
- 15:42Speaker 3: top of the third. Heading into the bottom of the
- 15:45Speaker 3: third inning, it's ten to nothing. And the pitching that
- 15:48Speaker 3: you showed this weekend certainly was not there on this
- 15:52Speaker 3: week day. Now you ended up coming up with some offense,
- 15:56Speaker 3: certainly late in the game, score three in the ninth,
- 15:58Speaker 3: but it was not a great showing, to say the
- 16:01Speaker 3: least by the LSU pitching staff. And so now you've
- 16:04Speaker 3: got a couple of losses, one to McNeice, you know,
- 16:07Speaker 3: a couple of weeks or week ago, ten days, and
- 16:10Speaker 3: then you lose this game to Northeastern, and look at
- 16:13Speaker 3: LSU baseball. So no matter who you lose to, you
- 16:15Speaker 3: people are going to start the panic. But for this game, Matthew,
- 16:20Speaker 3: it was a pitching staff. Right. We talked about the
- 16:22Speaker 3: hitting not being there over the weekend. This time you
- 16:25Speaker 3: flipped it. It was a pitching staff. Zach Collen, who's
- 16:28Speaker 3: somebody that you have trusted for a long time. He
- 16:31Speaker 3: comes in, he goes one and two thirds, gives up
- 16:35Speaker 3: five hits, four runs all earned. Did strike out four,
- 16:39Speaker 3: but he wasn't able to kind of shut the door
- 16:42Speaker 3: after they scored four runs, to kind of give you
- 16:45Speaker 3: an opportunity, to give you a chance to try to
- 16:46Speaker 3: play catch up.
- 16:48Speaker 8: It was just a lot of bad for the LSU Tigers. Yeah,
- 16:51Speaker 8: it was not good, especially early on in the lineup.
- 16:54Speaker 8: The coldtree continues, certainly for our the hitters and line
- 17:00Speaker 8: up and the pitcher's not good. Certainly, if you get
- 17:03Speaker 8: jumped up on on Northeastern and they're up to nothing
- 17:06Speaker 8: on you, nothing has gone your way, nothing's gone real well.
- 17:08Speaker 8: And it was a weekend of the bats being cold,
- 17:12Speaker 8: but for the most part good pitching. The pitching got
- 17:14Speaker 8: a little bit better as we got into the game yesterday.
- 17:17Speaker 8: I guess if you want to find some silver lining
- 17:21Speaker 8: is you did get seventeen batters at bats yesterday, so
- 17:24Speaker 8: you got you did get a decent amount experience, and
- 17:27Speaker 8: towards the end of the game they made a little
- 17:29Speaker 8: bit of a made a little bit pushed a lot
- 17:31Speaker 8: of scored some runs, made it at least a little
- 17:36Speaker 8: bit competitive towards the end. I was in and out
- 17:38Speaker 8: watching the game yesterday.
- 17:39Speaker 5: We had baseball, right, we had you know, we had
- 17:41Speaker 5: all the things, we had the homeworks and all that
- 17:42Speaker 5: good stuff.
- 17:43Speaker 8: So I was in and out watching it. Hey, one
- 17:46Speaker 8: guy I did notice popped out on the screen. Connor
- 17:52Speaker 8: Binge only faced one batter, but my guy, it was
- 17:57Speaker 8: a good batter. Guys throwing gas ninety six ninety six
- 18:01Speaker 8: mile an hour drafted to an eighty five mile an
- 18:03Speaker 8: hour breaking ball, struck him out on a ninety six
- 18:05Speaker 8: mile hour fastball, blew up by him. I mean you
- 18:07Speaker 8: did point him out at the beginning of the show.
- 18:09Speaker 8: You're like, Hey, who's who's that that team a year ago.
- 18:13Speaker 8: I think he needs a little bit more run on
- 18:14Speaker 8: the weekend. He's been almost exclusively a midweek pitcher this year.
- 18:18Speaker 8: But yeah, the guy's got some talent. I think he's
- 18:20Speaker 8: gonna be a star based off that won at Battle Saw.
- 18:22Speaker 8: It's the best pitcher you've seen this year. That's one
- 18:24Speaker 8: of the best, one of the best.
- 18:26Speaker 5: I've been watching some baseball now, I've been watching some baseball.
- 18:30Speaker 3: Well, you got to get some of these issues ironed out,
- 18:34Speaker 3: and you're still, you know, eleven to two baseball team.
- 18:38Speaker 3: We don't forget what you've done, you know against Notre
- 18:41Speaker 3: Dame in Central Florida, when you go back to Indiana,
- 18:43Speaker 3: when you go back.
- 18:44Speaker 6: To the tournament, you played down there in Florida.
- 18:46Speaker 3: But some of the things that did not show up
- 18:49Speaker 3: at all early in the season, they you know, they
- 18:51Speaker 3: show up in a midweek game against McNeice and then
- 18:54Speaker 3: over the weekend you win the games, right, you win Friday, Saturday, Sunday,
- 18:59Speaker 3: but it was not in dominant fashion like I think
- 19:01Speaker 3: a lot of people thought it would be. And then
- 19:03Speaker 3: you lose this game. So that leaves you with a
- 19:06Speaker 3: road game on Wednesday against Louisiana Lafayette. You've got a
- 19:09Speaker 3: weekend series in the box against Sacramento State. Then you've
- 19:13Speaker 3: got a midweek game against Creighton before it starts. Then
- 19:18Speaker 3: you travel to Nashville, Tennessee Charles Hawkins Field and you
- 19:22Speaker 3: play Vanderbilt. So whatever things that have kind of I
- 19:27Speaker 3: don't want to say fallen apart here, but whatever started
- 19:30Speaker 3: to get a little creaky, you got to get those
- 19:32Speaker 3: things fixed out right now because you don't have a
- 19:35Speaker 3: lot of time and you got to go on the
- 19:39Speaker 3: road to Vanderbilt and then you've got Oklahoma come in
- 19:42Speaker 3: to the box as far as SEC play, So I
- 19:45Speaker 3: know you probably got some thoughts on the thirteen to ten.
- 19:47Speaker 3: I don't know if you worked the game last.
- 19:49Speaker 7: Night or no, but I watched it in its entirety,
- 19:51Speaker 7: and like people are gonna point out, oh, they scored
- 19:53Speaker 7: ten runs, they got ten hits. Six of the hits
- 19:55Speaker 7: were from pinch hitters, guys that didn't start the game.
- 19:57Speaker 7: So six out of the ten your every day Yeah,
- 20:00Speaker 7: like Eddie Yamman who had a big two run shot
- 20:03Speaker 7: at the end of the game. He was two for three.
- 20:05Speaker 7: He was really good. Daniel Harden went in, got a hit,
- 20:08Speaker 7: Patrick got a hit. But like, these guys aren't Jack Ruckert,
- 20:12Speaker 7: These guys aren't in your everyday lineup, like Zeth Dardar
- 20:16Speaker 7: over two, Zach York over two, Josh Pearson or John
- 20:21Speaker 7: Pearson who got to start at first, he struggled at
- 20:24Speaker 7: first base. I think we saw how valuable Zach York's defenses.
- 20:27Speaker 7: Last night they started Zach York at DH. You gave
- 20:29Speaker 7: Pearson a shot. It didn't go well, But you know,
- 20:32Speaker 7: I seen you guys at text last night. First two
- 20:37Speaker 7: weeks of the season, after the second weekend, I had
- 20:39Speaker 7: to host for you guys, and my thoughts were, Look,
- 20:42Speaker 7: I understand it didn't go well for Zach Cowen, but
- 20:44Speaker 7: he of all people I trust to get this corrected.
- 20:48Speaker 5: I don't know if that's the case anymore.
- 20:49Speaker 7: I mean we're in week four of the season, and
- 20:52Speaker 7: really after that A and M game a year ago,
- 20:55Speaker 7: he struggled through the back half and it is carried over.
- 20:58Speaker 7: I mean, he goes an inning in two thirds, five hits,
- 21:01Speaker 7: four runs all of them earned, did strike out four.
- 21:04Speaker 7: I mean, that's just that's not gonna get it done.
- 21:07Speaker 7: He has been touched up every time he's been out there,
- 21:10Speaker 7: like I mean, yeah, he's he struck out some guys,
- 21:12Speaker 7: but I mean they are just crushing the ball off
- 21:14Speaker 7: of that Zach Cowen right now. And I don't really
- 21:18Speaker 7: know how that gets better. Because you put him in
- 21:20Speaker 7: midweek instead of the weekend to try to work through that.
- 21:22Speaker 7: He hasn't even been able to work through it in
- 21:24Speaker 7: the midweek right now. I mean he's going through it.
- 21:27Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's somebody. Whenever he decides to come back
- 21:29Speaker 3: to Lshue, everybody's excited because he's had big moments in
- 21:31Speaker 3: You're right after they and it did. It did fall
- 21:34Speaker 3: down quite a bit, but you know in the postseason
- 21:37Speaker 3: he did have big moments again. Right, So he raises
- 21:40Speaker 3: play back up and you're gonna need guys like that, Like.
- 21:43Speaker 6: There's gonna be a moment where you need him.
- 21:45Speaker 3: And he's done in his entire career, not just at LSU,
- 21:47Speaker 3: but everywhere he's been.
- 21:48Speaker 6: And that's somebody that you got to be able to
- 21:50Speaker 6: count on.
- 21:50Speaker 3: That's why he went in in that situation, because you
- 21:52Speaker 3: give up four runs in the first like all right, hey,
- 21:54Speaker 3: let's stop the bleeding here, let's put Zach Cowen in,
- 21:56Speaker 3: and then he can't stop it, and then all of
- 21:58Speaker 3: a sudden you look up, you've given up eight.
- 22:00Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 22:00Speaker 8: At some point the like, let's just stay on Zach
- 22:04Speaker 8: Kllen here for a second, and like, look on the
- 22:07Speaker 8: first a bit hand of the air I hadn't watched
- 22:09Speaker 8: all his outings, right, I hadn't seen it. But when
- 22:11Speaker 8: a picture that shows promise, that has shown potential in
- 22:14Speaker 8: big moments and shown that he can do it, but
- 22:17Speaker 8: then he's got all these different moments that stack up
- 22:19Speaker 8: on top of each other, not living up to expectations.
- 22:22Speaker 8: From a picture standpoint, it is a lot of it
- 22:25Speaker 8: is a confidence situation if your picture relies on movement,
- 22:29Speaker 8: and so when you're moving the wall, you've got to
- 22:31Speaker 8: snap your wrists, you got to snap the ball off
- 22:32Speaker 8: your hand.
- 22:33Speaker 5: That takes confidence to do that.
- 22:35Speaker 8: And if you're not thrown with your complete confidence, you
- 22:38Speaker 8: don't get the movement and you're just throwing straight lasers.
- 22:41Speaker 8: I mean straight balls get a hit, but even to
- 22:47Speaker 8: seam fastball like it doesn't have the movement that it
- 22:50Speaker 8: usually would have on it if you're not thrown with confidence,
- 22:53Speaker 8: and that's something that needs to be worked out.
- 22:54Speaker 5: Like it's March third right now.
- 22:57Speaker 8: Certainly a confident situation happened in the batter's box for
- 23:01Speaker 8: LSU with what they're starting with their starting lineup.
- 23:05Speaker 5: But we've seen it. I don't know.
- 23:07Speaker 8: I mean, it's nothing to be certainly worried about. You
- 23:11Speaker 8: don't want to see your team go out there and
- 23:13Speaker 8: struggle on the mount and struggle in the batter's box.
- 23:15Speaker 8: At least for the rest of the weekend. Our pitchers
- 23:19Speaker 8: are pitching their tails off. When we were not hitting well.
- 23:21Speaker 8: I think we were hitting what they say last night,
- 23:23Speaker 8: like one fifty on the weekend leading up into the
- 23:25Speaker 8: game last night, and it.
- 23:27Speaker 5: It's not any better. Yeah, they'll get it turned around. Guys.
- 23:31Speaker 5: It's just confidence.
- 23:33Speaker 3: Again.
- 23:34Speaker 6: You've got very few opportunities before you.
- 23:36Speaker 3: Start SEC play, and if anybody's going to do it,
- 23:39Speaker 3: it's certainly going to be Jay Johnson.
- 23:41Speaker 6: But you got to go on the road again on Wednesday.
- 23:44Speaker 3: You got a game against Louisiana Lafayette, and you've got
- 23:46Speaker 3: the weekend series against Sacramento State, the game against Creighton,
- 23:50Speaker 3: and then it is on It is Vanderbilt in Oklahoma.
- 23:53Speaker 3: Your first two series, it's on the road against Vanderbilt,
- 23:56Speaker 3: it's at home against Oklahoma, and we are very close
- 23:59Speaker 3: to having SEC baseball take place. All right, we will

- 26:36Speaker 5: Hey, did you.
- 26:36Speaker 8: See the the Saints just keep getting wins. Mickey limis
- 26:42Speaker 8: crashing it Marshall Lattimore got released yesterday.
- 26:46Speaker 3: He did Uh. They saved eighteen and a half million
- 26:52Speaker 3: dollars by doing so.
- 26:55Speaker 6: The commanders did, uh. And you got him for three
- 26:58Speaker 6: draft picks.
- 26:58Speaker 3: You're seeing him and another draft choice to the commanders,
- 27:03Speaker 3: and he got hurt, had had hamstring issue.
- 27:06Speaker 6: Didn't really play a whole lot there.
- 27:09Speaker 8: So yeah, Mickey just stacking the victories, stacking the wins
- 27:13Speaker 8: right now.
- 27:14Speaker 9: Breaks my heart, breaks my heart. But you know I
- 27:17Speaker 9: said on Hunt Show, I gotta get credit where's due.
- 27:19Speaker 9: Mickey might be in his prime again, and it breaks,
- 27:22Speaker 9: like if y'all know, breaks my heart to even say that,
- 27:24Speaker 9: to admit that, but gotta call it what it is.
- 27:27Speaker 9: This I'm not gonna say this could be like the
- 27:28Speaker 9: hurt you look back at this like the Herschel Walker trade.
- 27:30Speaker 9: But this could be a franchise altar in trade. If
- 27:33Speaker 9: you're on a sinker Quincy Riley, keep it up and
- 27:35Speaker 9: then you know, Devin Neil, We'll see what happens, especially
- 27:37Speaker 9: if you take a running back first round. But you
- 27:38Speaker 9: know Devin Neil, he had good moments. If you didn't
- 27:41Speaker 9: get hurt, you he had good moments. But you're on
- 27:42Speaker 9: a Sinker and Quincy Rodley looking like there be two
- 27:44Speaker 9: starters for you next year. And you got that for
- 27:47Speaker 9: you know, I get it a lot of more. I
- 27:50Speaker 9: don't necessarily blame the Commanders. I get it, but you
- 27:53Speaker 9: don't have to go all in. They needed a cornerback
- 27:55Speaker 9: at the time. Even though if you checked the track,
- 27:58Speaker 9: the track record Latimo is every year he was getting
- 28:00Speaker 9: more hurt and missing less games. But he had to say, man,
- 28:03Speaker 9: but Mickey might be in his prime again. Sucks, but
- 28:06Speaker 9: I love it a little bit.
- 28:08Speaker 7: How great would it be if Saints brought back Marshawn
- 28:11Speaker 7: Lottimore on the veteran minimum and he like balled out again,
- 28:15Speaker 7: got all those draft picks and you've still got Marshawn Lottimore.
- 28:17Speaker 9: I would love that. That would be That would be
- 28:20Speaker 9: like the perfect world.
- 28:21Speaker 5: I would be like that Sunny Weaver junior on Draft
- 28:23Speaker 5: Day type of steel. Bring back the a Lottimore, Mike
- 28:26Speaker 5: Evans fights.
- 28:28Speaker 4: See he even gonna be a TAPA next year.
- 28:29Speaker 3: You know it's agent so well. What the Commanders did
- 28:33Speaker 3: when they got Latimore was what the Dolphins did when
- 28:36Speaker 3: they got Tyreek Hill, when they got Bradley Chubb. You
- 28:40Speaker 3: go for everything because you feel like your windows open.
- 28:44Speaker 3: So you make trades, you give up assets, and you
- 28:47Speaker 3: spend a lot of money. Right, So you give up
- 28:50Speaker 3: assets for Tyreek Hill, Bradley Chubb and then you give
- 28:53Speaker 3: them extensions and you're going for everything. You are swinging
- 28:57Speaker 3: for the fences. Well, now for the Miami Dolphins, like
- 29:00Speaker 3: they're in a spot where they don't have money to spend. Nope,
- 29:04Speaker 3: they don't have veteran players, they got a new coaching staff,
- 29:07Speaker 3: they don't have a quarterback like Washington tried to do
- 29:10Speaker 3: that because Jaden Daniels made it to the NFC Championship game,
- 29:13Speaker 3: and they're like, hey, I think we're close. We just
- 29:16Speaker 3: need to add some veteran pieces, some guys that are
- 29:18Speaker 3: over thirty on one year deals and see if we
- 29:20Speaker 3: can get it done.
- 29:21Speaker 6: And then you make a move like Marshaun Lattimore as well,
- 29:24Speaker 6: Yeah debo, that's a yeah debo.
- 29:26Speaker 3: This year, it's like, we think we're close, let's go
- 29:29Speaker 3: make these moves, right, you signed back Bobby Wagner. Bobby,
- 29:33Speaker 3: and then when it doesn't work, you got to find
- 29:35Speaker 3: a way to get some cap space. You got to
- 29:38Speaker 3: make some moves and so like that's a cap casualty.
- 29:40Speaker 3: It's what we always call them, right.
- 29:42Speaker 8: One of the hardest positions to play in football is cornerback,
- 29:47Speaker 8: one of the most physically difficult, hardest positions to go
- 29:51Speaker 8: out and be successful, but it continues to be some
- 29:56Speaker 8: of the most overreacted and overpaid and overmoved positions. Look
- 30:01Speaker 8: at what the Colts did this year when they got
- 30:03Speaker 8: off to that hot star Daniel Jones was like in
- 30:05Speaker 8: the MVP, they give up two first rounders for saust Gardener,
- 30:08Speaker 8: who ends up getting hurt, and then if never, they
- 30:11Speaker 8: didn't even make the playoffs, like a complete disaster. And
- 30:14Speaker 8: like in a situation where that owner was doing all
- 30:19Speaker 8: the right things, she was like she was the she
- 30:22Speaker 8: signed a move, she co signed to move, she was
- 30:24Speaker 8: a talking like she was. Everybody was talking about her,
- 30:26Speaker 8: how involved she was, and like Aero pointed up for
- 30:29Speaker 8: her for that for the Colts and everything and everything
- 30:32Speaker 8: was going great rightfully, so they decided to go all in.
- 30:36Speaker 8: But like, cornerback seems to be this place where people
- 30:40Speaker 8: feel is going to make a huge impact on the
- 30:43Speaker 8: overall outcome of your team, and it never really does.
- 30:47Speaker 8: One cornerback's not going to get it. I'd rather have
- 30:50Speaker 8: three decent ones than one stud one.
- 30:53Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with that.
- 30:54Speaker 7: It was it just seemed like all year we were
- 30:57Speaker 7: all waiting for the Colts to come back down to earth.
- 30:59Speaker 7: And maybe it was because we were bidden by you know,
- 31:01Speaker 7: Daniel Jones in New York. People don't want to trust him.
- 31:04Speaker 7: But I kind of felt that way last year about
- 31:06Speaker 7: the Commanders. I kind of though the season was a
- 31:07Speaker 7: little bit of fools goal. I mean, I remember we
- 31:10Speaker 7: did the little bold predictions or whatever, and mine was
- 31:12Speaker 7: they're not going to make the playoffs.
- 31:14Speaker 5: Not because Jayden and Jayden was great.
- 31:16Speaker 7: They faced eight backup quarterbacks Jayden and Daniels' rookie year
- 31:19Speaker 7: in the regular season, like, yes, credit to them. They
- 31:21Speaker 7: made it to the playoffs. They made the run, got
- 31:23Speaker 7: to the NFC Championship game. But that made them think
- 31:27Speaker 7: we are one or two pieces away. The team was
- 31:29Speaker 7: never one or two pieces away. Jayde Daniels carried them
- 31:33Speaker 7: to that playoffs and then went on a historic run.
- 31:35Speaker 7: That team had a lot of work to do, and
- 31:37Speaker 7: look the same, said Mickey Limis. Took advantage of a
- 31:39Speaker 7: desperate team and now you see what happens.
- 31:41Speaker 8: A historic season from a quarterback will make anybody think
- 31:44Speaker 8: you're right to play right.
- 31:45Speaker 5: And they just weren't.
- 31:47Speaker 7: I mean, I think I brought it up. It was
- 31:49Speaker 7: a Trey Lance had started one career game. It was
- 31:53Speaker 7: against the Commanders when he was with the Cowboys last season.
- 31:55Speaker 8: I mean that's and now I don't want to diminish
- 31:58Speaker 8: what a star corner can do. But like if I'm
- 32:01Speaker 8: a GM or an organization and I somehow draft into
- 32:05Speaker 8: require a star cornerback, I am looking.
- 32:10Speaker 5: He is always on the market.
- 32:12Speaker 8: He was always for sale because people have keep proving
- 32:14Speaker 8: that they are going to overpay in assets for a
- 32:18Speaker 8: stud cornerback. I want really good ones. I don't know
- 32:22Speaker 8: if I want a star one because of what they demand.
- 32:24Speaker 8: I mean, look at what Jalen Ramsey's career, how much
- 32:26Speaker 8: has he made and like where where has he ever
- 32:29Speaker 8: made an impact on the overall team?
- 32:32Speaker 9: Well, I mean the Rams needed him. They needed Jalen Ramsey,
- 32:36Speaker 9: they needed them.
- 32:38Speaker 4: I think.
- 32:40Speaker 5: I forgot about.
- 32:41Speaker 3: But the Rams also had to add other stuff.
- 32:44Speaker 9: Like he was not their final piece, but he was
- 32:47Speaker 9: a move that helps prope.
- 32:50Speaker 8: Star corners, like almost like a quarterback, Like if you
- 32:53Speaker 8: can get him on a rookie.
- 32:55Speaker 5: Look at the Legion of Doom the Yeah they were
- 33:00Speaker 5: there and you were there.
- 33:02Speaker 3: Can you get the name right?
- 33:03Speaker 5: Yeah, well Sherman what they were all on like Rooky
- 33:07Speaker 5: contrac your.
- 33:08Speaker 7: Point, like Sherman wasn't a rookie, but he didn't have
- 33:09Speaker 7: that big money deal yet. Earl Thomas didn't have that
- 33:12Speaker 7: big money deal yet. Your fourth guard was Byron Maxwell,
- 33:15Speaker 7: who like nobody knew.
- 33:17Speaker 5: It was Brandon Browner at the time.
- 33:19Speaker 7: Yeah, and a little happened, looked actually did What did
- 33:24Speaker 7: the Saints to do though? They overpaid for him, and
- 33:28Speaker 7: again the next year they slot in Byron Maxwell.
- 33:30Speaker 5: They were back to the Super Bowl. It didn't matter.
- 33:34Speaker 6: This is a defensive heavy draft.
- 33:36Speaker 3: Like every coach in GM I talked to and Indy
- 33:39Speaker 3: was like defense, defense, defense. And when you look at
- 33:44Speaker 3: some of the teams that were bad, bad on defense
- 33:47Speaker 3: last year, Let's look at the teams that go from
- 33:50Speaker 3: thirty two, thirty one, thirty and twenty nine in yards
- 33:54Speaker 3: giving up the Washington Commanders, the Cincinnati Bengals, the Dallas Cowboys,
- 33:58Speaker 3: Chicago Bears. What do those teams all have that usually
- 34:01Speaker 3: is very hard to find quarterback? They've got that part,
- 34:06Speaker 3: which is the hardest part figured out. They just don't
- 34:09Speaker 3: have the defense. And we're talking about the very bottom
- 34:12Speaker 3: the last four teams in yards given up, Bears, Cowboys, Bengals, Commanders.
- 34:18Speaker 3: They've got to hit on this draft. This draft has
- 34:21Speaker 3: depth to it. It's got edge rushers, it's got stackbackers,
- 34:25Speaker 3: it's got safety, safety, it's got everything that you need
- 34:29Speaker 3: and want, and it's got some real depth to it.
- 34:33Speaker 6: Like those teams, they have to hit on defense.
- 34:35Speaker 3: They can't miss because they got the hardest part figured out.
- 34:39Speaker 3: Now you've got to go put together a defense. And
- 34:42Speaker 3: I don't really have faith that Cincinnati's going to do
- 34:44Speaker 3: it a cheap but they don't.
- 34:46Speaker 6: I had a thirty twenty.
- 34:49Speaker 3: Five minute on air, five minute off the air conversation
- 34:51Speaker 3: with Steven Jones, who's obviously a decision maker for the Cowboys,
- 34:56Speaker 3: and he said defense seven or eight times, Like he said, Hey,
- 35:02Speaker 3: we just tagged George Pickens, we got Ceedee Lamb, we
- 35:04Speaker 3: got Deak Prescott, we got Javonte Williams back. We're good
- 35:08Speaker 3: and we're not even looking. He's like, we're looking all
- 35:10Speaker 3: at defense in this draft.
- 35:12Speaker 8: They got a couple of first rounders. Yeah, and hopefully
- 35:15Speaker 8: like the goal for them is another Micah Parsons.
- 35:20Speaker 3: They got twelve and twenty.
- 35:21Speaker 6: I'd rather pick twelve and twenty than move up and
- 35:23Speaker 6: pick seven.
- 35:24Speaker 7: Yeah, And to Jake's point, two years ago, the Cowboys
- 35:28Speaker 7: were second to last in rush defense and last in
- 35:31Speaker 7: rush offense, like a lot of teams. It came out like, oh,
- 35:35Speaker 7: Dallas reset the running back market because they gave Javonte
- 35:38Speaker 7: Williams three years twenty four million on like Thursday, and
- 35:41Speaker 7: that that kind of reset the free agent market. But
- 35:43Speaker 7: they had to do that. Now you're one extra piece away,
- 35:47Speaker 7: like you got your running game figured out, Go show
- 35:49Speaker 7: up the D line and it's actually okay.
- 35:52Speaker 4: Is Quinn Williams still on the Cowboys?
- 35:54Speaker 5: Williams?
- 35:54Speaker 4: So they got another guy.
- 35:55Speaker 5: That traded for Ny Clark.
- 35:57Speaker 4: Oh, what all.
- 35:57Speaker 9: They need is a pass rush? They straight, we'll get
- 35:59Speaker 9: some some BB's the Cowboys.
- 36:02Speaker 5: But all your pointing out is defense right now, which I.
- 36:04Speaker 9: Mean I said, you got Kenny Clark and Quinn Quinn
- 36:07Speaker 9: Note Wilson Williams. Goodness, racist at everybody but him. Williams
- 36:11Speaker 9: up front, like that's a that's stout.
- 36:12Speaker 8: I was being a little sarcastic when I said they
- 36:14Speaker 8: got two picks. Try Maybe it's kind of like that
- 36:17Speaker 8: scene from Family Guy where he's on a game show
- 36:19Speaker 8: and they're like, you can have a boat or you
- 36:22Speaker 8: can be the door number two, the mystery door. He's like, well,
- 36:26Speaker 8: a boat's a boat, but behind the mystery door could
- 36:29Speaker 8: be anything.
- 36:30Speaker 5: It could even be a boat. I'll do that. Yeah,
- 36:36Speaker 5: they just need a pass rusher. It's pretty amazing.
- 36:38Speaker 4: A lot of teams can say that. Not everybody pass rusher.
- 36:43Speaker 9: It's like, man, dude, if the Cowboys, because that offense
- 36:46Speaker 9: last year was just I love watching the Cowboys, but
- 36:49Speaker 9: they get.
- 36:49Speaker 5: A people over there, my gosh, I'm marking the table
- 36:54Speaker 5: on that one.
- 36:55Speaker 9: You know, hold on, you know I was part time
- 36:58Speaker 9: Cowboys last because I had Dack on fantas side. I
- 37:00Speaker 9: read out like Taylor, Hey, Dak lighting it up. I'm
- 37:02Speaker 9: telling you you're lighting it up fantasy wise. This is listen, people,
- 37:06Speaker 9: fantasy football. Dak was a good quarterback. List don't care.
- 37:09Speaker 9: Nobody says he was definitely a good quarterback. Stats don't lie.
- 37:13Speaker 4: He was Dak. If anybody gonna slink it, Dak was
- 37:15Speaker 4: gonna sling it.
- 37:17Speaker 8: I do have a a draft question that I would
- 37:23Speaker 8: like to ask you guys. He's got a lot of
- 37:25Speaker 8: NFL talk this morning already. I'd like to ask you guys,

- 39:07Speaker 3: Central plumbing dot org, Central Plumbing dot org. One of
- 39:12Speaker 3: the things that certainly was talked about and heard often
- 39:15Speaker 3: was a free agency at the NFL scouting combines. So
- 39:19Speaker 3: I don't know if your question had to do with
- 39:20Speaker 3: free agency or if it was with a draft. Okay,
- 39:25Speaker 3: floor's here, sir, Oh you want me to go? Uh
- 39:28Speaker 3: yeah this Mike Son, Yeah, got a hot mic, all right,
- 39:32Speaker 3: so check this out. I was thinking about it.
- 39:34Speaker 8: It's a question that I've been thinking about, not this
- 39:36Speaker 8: specific question, but it's a player I've been thinking about,
- 39:38Speaker 8: which is Ty Simpson going into the draft. Of course,
- 39:41Speaker 8: the Alabama quarterback largely projected to be the second quarterback
- 39:45Speaker 8: taken off the board. I'm thinking about his draft position
- 39:49Speaker 8: and where he's going to fall, where he's going to go.
- 39:51Speaker 8: And they were talking about a little bit more a
- 39:53Speaker 8: little bit on the Early Morning Show today, kind of
- 39:55Speaker 8: like kind of got me thinking a little bit more
- 39:57Speaker 8: about it. But do we think that Ty Simpson, the
- 40:02Speaker 8: second quarterback that's projected to be taken in the draft,
- 40:05Speaker 8: will fall outside of the first fifteen picks this draft?
- 40:09Speaker 7: Yes, yeah, because I don't I don't think any quarterback
- 40:12Speaker 7: is going to be taken in top fifteen outside of Mendoza.
- 40:17Speaker 5: So yeah, I think we'll go first, right, Mike.
- 40:19Speaker 8: So, so there was a there was an ESPN draft
- 40:22Speaker 8: analyst that recently said that I'd be I think I
- 40:24Speaker 8: think he said something like, I'd rather be picking twenty
- 40:26Speaker 8: five than five this year if I need a quarterback.
- 40:29Speaker 8: And yeah, but my my thought is this, if you
- 40:31Speaker 8: look at the free agents, and you look at the
- 40:34Speaker 8: free agents out there, you got tuh Kyler, Murray Kirk Cousins,
- 40:38Speaker 8: Malik Willis, Gino Smith. Not the best crop of free
- 40:41Speaker 8: agent quarterbacks ever.
- 40:42Speaker 4: Nope.
- 40:43Speaker 8: The best time to ever get a quarterback is certainly
- 40:46Speaker 8: if you can take a gamble. If you're going to
- 40:48Speaker 8: take a gamble on Kyler Murray, it's rumored that he's
- 40:50Speaker 8: going to get at least twenty five million. Kyler Murray, Yeah,
- 40:53Speaker 8: let's played terrible, right, terrible, as you know, he's played
- 40:57Speaker 8: for the Cardinals.
- 40:58Speaker 5: Has not lived up to the hype to.
- 41:01Speaker 8: All these players are going to make a ton of
- 41:03Speaker 8: money if you can take somebody. I believe that somebody
- 41:07Speaker 8: there's a chance that somebody's gonna move up and say,
- 41:10Speaker 8: all right, I'm gonna ta you instead of taking a
- 41:11Speaker 8: gamble on Kyler Murray and paying him twenty five to
- 41:14Speaker 8: thirty thirty five million dollars whatever he's going to get, Like,
- 41:17Speaker 8: let me take somebody in thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, pay him
- 41:21Speaker 8: seven million dollars and if they work, yeah great, If not, fine,
- 41:26Speaker 8: Kyler wasn't going to be the long term answer anyway.
- 41:30Speaker 8: This day and age in twenty twenty six, the importance
- 41:33Speaker 8: of quarterback, and they'd get I think I think the
- 41:34Speaker 8: Kenny Pickett Draft there was only one quarterback taken in
- 41:36Speaker 8: the first draft. Yeah, quarterbacks are going to get overdrafted always.
- 41:40Speaker 8: And remember I think even Dan ar Left dan Anlowski
- 41:43Speaker 8: said this recently too. For the first eight or nine
- 41:45Speaker 8: games of the season, Ty Simpson's tape was better than
- 41:49Speaker 8: Fernando Mondeza's, or at least as good, So you can't
- 41:53Speaker 8: unsee that. So what he has, I think people are
- 41:56Speaker 8: going to over overdraft him potentially and move up just
- 42:00Speaker 8: because it is worth the risk to try to hit
- 42:04Speaker 8: and miss on a quarterback where for five, four or
- 42:06Speaker 8: five years you're only gonna pay quarterbacks seven or eight
- 42:08Speaker 8: million dollars. Now, maybe it's not a maybe maybe it's
- 42:11Speaker 8: like a luxury thing too. Maybe it's the Rams moving
- 42:13Speaker 8: up and taking him because you know what, you're paying
- 42:17Speaker 8: Stafford all this money, but Stafford's not gonna be there
- 42:19Speaker 8: in two years, and so you have this backup quarterback
- 42:24Speaker 8: for like I said, seven eight million dollars you pay
- 42:27Speaker 8: at Stafford an ungodly amount, but in two years you're
- 42:29Speaker 8: gonna have a lot of cap space to being people
- 42:31Speaker 8: around a new young quarterback. So I think it's interesting
- 42:36Speaker 8: and in this day days and the draft, certainly quarterbacks
- 42:38Speaker 8: are gonna get overdrafted. I think there is a chance
- 42:41Speaker 8: that somebody moves up. Maybe not anybody in the top
- 42:43Speaker 8: fifteen right now, but somebody moves up to take a
- 42:47Speaker 8: flyer on somebody like ty Sipson.
- 42:49Speaker 6: When you stay move up, what do you think the
- 42:51Speaker 6: ceiling of moving up?
- 42:52Speaker 11: Like?
- 42:52Speaker 3: What range are you talking about?
- 42:54Speaker 8: If fifteen is right around that, right around that over under,
- 42:59Speaker 8: if like I was going to set a Vegas over under,
- 43:02Speaker 8: like that's where it would be. Certainly not top ten, sir,
- 43:05Speaker 8: I don't definitely not eleven twelve, So thirteen through eighteen probably.
- 43:10Speaker 3: I did see a mock draft earlier. I believe it
- 43:13Speaker 3: was on ESPN dot com that had the Cardinals trading
- 43:16Speaker 3: back into the first round with the Houston Texans. So
- 43:20Speaker 3: the Cardinals gave their second round and fourth round picks
- 43:23Speaker 3: to move up back into the first round, just like
- 43:27Speaker 3: Ty Simpson, twenty.
- 43:27Speaker 7: E twenty one with the Steelers would be maybe the
- 43:31Speaker 7: spot if they don't bring Rogers back. You meentured fourteen
- 43:35Speaker 7: and fifteen. That's Ravens and Bucks. Neither of them were
- 43:38Speaker 7: taking a quarterback in round one.
- 43:40Speaker 8: This might be controversial too. If I'm the Texans, I'm
- 43:43Speaker 8: doing everything I can to replace c J. Strad, Why
- 43:46Speaker 8: would you not.
- 43:48Speaker 1: Have?
- 43:49Speaker 8: Nobody thinks that either their GM certainly said it was
- 43:51Speaker 8: moronic to think that we try to move on from him.
- 43:54Speaker 8: The Texans get just think about it. The Texans get
- 43:57Speaker 8: to the Super Bowl, they don't win it. No one's
- 43:59Speaker 8: going to beat the Sea except the Rams this year. Hey,
- 44:03Speaker 8: the Texans get to the super Bowl with Joe Flacco
- 44:05Speaker 8: as our quarterbale with.
- 44:09Speaker 3: With Tua mm hmm.
- 44:12Speaker 5: To your point, it doesn't turn the ball over as
- 44:14Speaker 5: much as c J. Stroud Stroud. I know people call
- 44:19Speaker 5: him that, but I mean, I know your head. You
- 44:22Speaker 5: don't watched the film of c. J. Stroud and see
- 44:24Speaker 5: how elementary he played. I'm just saying, is two is
- 44:28Speaker 5: not good, but at least he can be semi accurate
- 44:31Speaker 5: with the ball.
- 44:31Speaker 3: I'll tell okay, when we come back in our.
- 44:33Speaker 5: Number that, don't underestimate how good that defense actually.
- 44:36Speaker 3: When we come back an hour number two, we can
- 44:38Speaker 3: have the quarterback conversation, because if you need one, this
- 44:42Speaker 3: is literally the worst year to need one. I mean,
- 44:45Speaker 3: that's the worst year to possibly need a quarterback that's
- 44:49Speaker 3: going to change the math for your team.
- 44:51Speaker 6: And we'll have that conversation when we come back here.
- 44:54Speaker 2: On off the bench, all right, if you're in.
- 45:01Speaker 3: Louisiana and you want the best care possible. You already
- 45:04Speaker 3: know the name Oschner Health from primary care to specialists,
