- 0:31Speaker 3: tell everybody that you were here first, that's right, and
- 0:33Speaker 3: then you can be.
- 0:33Speaker 1: Possessive of it.
- 0:34Speaker 3: Like that alt indie band that first started blowing up
- 0:37Speaker 3: and he said, wow, you didn't even really know they're.
- 0:39Speaker 4: Oh Exam before they got popp U. I was buying
- 0:41Speaker 4: their CDs outside of the.
- 0:42Speaker 1: Shad, like the early stuff. Yeah, like the early stuff.
- 0:45Speaker 3: Oh my god, that's your favorite size is not even
- 0:47Speaker 3: like the fifteenth best song that they have.
- 0:49Speaker 1: You're on their reddit saying what are your favorite deep cuts?
- 0:51Speaker 1: Love it? Love it? Yeah, you would get a Huddle
- 0:53Speaker 1: reddit before they sold out. You got to get a
- 0:55Speaker 1: Reddit page. That's huge for us. That's a good start.
- 0:57Speaker 2: As it turns out, we have an x page, a
- 1:00Speaker 2: Facebook page, and a YouTube page, streaming live and of
- 1:02Speaker 2: course the iHeartRadio app worldwide.
- 1:05Speaker 1: Great Comments took Fox.
- 1:07Speaker 2: Sports nine to twenty in Milwaukee, in Fox Sports ten
- 1:09Speaker 2: seventy in Madison. It's good to be here talking to
- 1:13Speaker 2: you now. Matt Lafleuur gets his extension. We've been talking
- 1:16Speaker 2: about that, and we're reacting to the reaction. People that
- 1:19Speaker 2: are mad are going to be mad. Some people it's
- 1:20Speaker 2: just their default setting to be mad, generally speaking. So yes,
- 1:24Speaker 2: wouldn't have been happy, Like what would have made you happy?
- 1:26Speaker 2: I think what's gonna make people happy is winning games
- 1:29Speaker 2: and winning playoff game. That's it what it is, and
- 1:32Speaker 2: I think Matt Leflure has a chance to do that.
- 1:33Speaker 2: The idea that he can't or somehow won't is like,
- 1:37Speaker 2: to me, kind of silly. And I go back to
- 1:39Speaker 2: what I've been saying for the last little bit here.
- 1:41Speaker 2: Like Andy Reid, they got sick of him in Philadelpia,
- 1:44Speaker 2: I get sick of just going and winning the division
- 1:46Speaker 2: and going to playoff games and stuff.
- 1:47Speaker 1: We need something more.
- 1:48Speaker 3: Well, And maybe I'm wrong, Drew, because I think my
- 1:51Speaker 3: favorite coach in the division is the one that has
- 1:53Speaker 3: not won a playoff game. And that would be Kevin O'Connell.
- 1:56Speaker 3: But I'm with you there that when you have a
- 1:59Speaker 3: guy who is a top top ten head coach in
- 2:03Speaker 3: the league and a top ten play caller in the
- 2:06Speaker 3: league in a sport that is so predicated on offense,
- 2:09Speaker 3: when you're not going to be able to grab clearly
- 2:13Speaker 3: one of the two, if not both.
- 2:15Speaker 1: In the next hire, it's the wrong move to move on.
- 2:18Speaker 3: But you said it right there, the part that Packers
- 2:20Speaker 3: fans are going to now want our playoff game wins
- 2:25Speaker 3: and home playoff games as well. And I think this
- 2:28Speaker 3: is the interesting part that you and I hear on
- 2:30Speaker 3: Pat Packers OATESI all the time. Is I just want
- 2:32Speaker 3: to hear him say something different.
- 2:34Speaker 1: Right.
- 2:35Speaker 3: It feels like we're almost to the point where I
- 2:37Speaker 3: don't know why. I just don't like the way you
- 2:40Speaker 3: said it, and it's I just wish he wouldn't say
- 2:43Speaker 3: well it starts with me, or I've heard him say
- 2:46Speaker 3: this so many times now I need to see some different. Well,
- 2:49Speaker 3: he did say something a little bit different this year.
- 2:51Speaker 3: I thought it is a season in press conference when
- 2:52Speaker 3: he said it also would be nice to get some
- 2:54Speaker 3: home playoff games, so at least identifying and making it
- 2:58Speaker 3: a little bit clearer of Hey, the first thing we
- 3:00Speaker 3: need to do is win the NFC North because last
- 3:03Speaker 3: year it was we need to not almost get swept
- 3:06Speaker 3: in the North. Well, they rectified that by going four
- 3:09Speaker 3: and two in the division this year four and three
- 3:11Speaker 3: if he count the playoff game.
- 3:12Speaker 2: But the next thing, because they laid down against Minnesota
- 3:16Speaker 2: the last game.
- 3:17Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, one for sure.
- 3:19Speaker 3: And you know three of those games happened without Micah Parsons,
- 3:23Speaker 3: which definitely changes the equation. Okay, so everything's optics, and
- 3:26Speaker 3: you're right, people, Jeff Hafley was a breath of fresh air.
- 3:29Speaker 1: His his buddy.
- 3:29Speaker 2: He's gonna win every press conference he has in Miami.
- 3:32Speaker 2: Might not win a lot of games, they're gonna win
- 3:34Speaker 2: a lot of press conferences.
- 3:34Speaker 1: Okay, Now, people, you.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Kind of gloss over the fact because you like him
- 3:39Speaker 2: and he's new. You gloss over the fact that he
- 3:43Speaker 2: was in charge of the defense that coughed up all
- 3:45Speaker 2: those leads. They gave up twenty five points in his
- 3:48Speaker 2: last fourth quarter, in the fourth quarter, and then he
- 3:49Speaker 2: got He was one of the first guys hired in
- 3:52Speaker 2: this cycle. So what does that tell you? You're right, it's
- 3:54Speaker 2: seven eight years. The message gets stale. And here's the thing,
- 3:57Speaker 2: here's another old guy moment. Huddle up, boys, take helmet's
- 4:00Speaker 2: not a chair.
- 4:01Speaker 1: Not a chair.
- 4:03Speaker 2: I come from the era where press conferences weren't there
- 4:05Speaker 2: was no internet, and that wasn't streamed, and not everybody
- 4:07Speaker 2: saw everything. You read a couple of comments from the
- 4:10Speaker 2: presser and you maybe saw one or two sentences on
- 4:13Speaker 2: the news, but that was it.
- 4:15Speaker 1: Now you get wildewill.
- 4:16Speaker 2: So people have the ability to get sick of Matt
- 4:18Speaker 2: Lafleur saying it starts with me and the same things
- 4:21Speaker 2: a time or time, and after seven years, even winning coaches, their.
- 4:24Speaker 1: Message gets hired. People get sick of it.
- 4:26Speaker 3: Well, and we don't need you guys to you guys
- 4:29Speaker 3: at least filtered through all the you know, garnerisms in
- 4:33Speaker 3: writing the stories, to all the stuff that would have
- 4:35Speaker 3: been the exact same thing, and get a little bit
- 4:37Speaker 3: more of the story to your point. The accessibility to
- 4:40Speaker 3: the league has made all of this so clean and
- 4:43Speaker 3: you hear it. And frankly, I think it's one of
- 4:45Speaker 3: the reasons why people fell so in love with Jeff Hafley,
- 4:48Speaker 3: not necessarily because his defense was the attacking in your
- 4:52Speaker 3: face zero coverage, that your zero cover zero looks that
- 4:56Speaker 3: you wanted and in your face press coverage. No, it's
- 4:59Speaker 3: because you listen to and you love the way he
- 5:01Speaker 3: talked and also one of the reasons why we all
- 5:03Speaker 3: forecasted that he was going to dominate the interviews that
- 5:05Speaker 3: it founded.
- 5:05Speaker 2: That's a great point, Billy, Yeah, yeah, we're also warped
- 5:08Speaker 2: in that it's the Jordan Brady stuff, like you forget
- 5:12Speaker 2: Brady and Belichick. Well, first of all, Belichick, if you're
- 5:15Speaker 2: not winning super Bowls, how do you get away with
- 5:18Speaker 2: that at the podium. You're you're the CEO of an organization,
- 5:21Speaker 2: You're you're the face of it, You're the personality. And
- 5:24Speaker 2: when you're that abrasive and curmudgeon le hilarious because he
- 5:28Speaker 2: won one. There was a nine year period where they
- 5:31Speaker 2: didn't win. Correct, they didn't win the Super Bowl for
- 5:34Speaker 2: nine years in Brady's peak, and then Brady won four
- 5:36Speaker 2: after that. Right, So it to me, it's like, is
- 5:40Speaker 2: that era gone and we're so warped by why can't
- 5:43Speaker 2: everybody be the Patriots?
- 5:44Speaker 1: Why can't we win? Every year?
- 5:45Speaker 2: You forget and people you pull back and you say
- 5:48Speaker 2: all right, let's fire this guy. Let's let's move on.
- 5:50Speaker 2: He hasn't done it for us.
- 5:52Speaker 1: I love this talk about the seventh seed like that
- 5:54Speaker 1: means anything, right, Oh, they would have made the playoffs.
- 5:57Speaker 1: It win the seventh seed.
- 5:58Speaker 2: The same people who were poo pooing division championships with
- 6:02Speaker 2: no playoffs success, sing what doesn't matter if you don't
- 6:04Speaker 2: win the playoffs. Now they want to win division titles. Okay,
- 6:06Speaker 2: that's that's the standard. Okay, the goal bulls does move.
- 6:09Speaker 2: You're absolutely right about that.
- 6:11Speaker 3: And then I think you also have to factor that
- 6:12Speaker 3: indifferently with the looks at a six team playoff format,
- 6:16Speaker 3: they give you two buys where it is easier when
- 6:18Speaker 3: you're one game away from the NFC or AFC title game.
- 6:22Speaker 3: For the run with New England of going to all
- 6:24Speaker 3: those NAFC title games a lot of times they only
- 6:26Speaker 3: need to win one and they were still the two seed.
- 6:28Speaker 3: They're beating upon a brutal division. So it does always
- 6:30Speaker 3: add context to it. But like you, you do need
- 6:34Speaker 3: to be able to see development, and I think that's
- 6:37Speaker 3: the other part of this that kind of gets missed
- 6:40Speaker 3: in a lot of the only victories and losses conversation,
- 6:45Speaker 3: which again it's a result driven business. I'm not saying
- 6:47Speaker 3: that's not the number one decision maker, but the development
- 6:50Speaker 3: that you've seen out of especially significant offensive players Christian Watson,
- 6:55Speaker 3: Romeo Dobbs, Jordan Love most importantly, and that's a part
- 7:00Speaker 3: of it where that is still the biggest core and
- 7:03Speaker 3: that is still the most important guy when you're talking
- 7:05Speaker 3: about this this building and this operation moving forward, as
- 7:10Speaker 3: much as Brian Gouda, Kunston, Matt Lafleur for sure ed
- 7:13Speaker 3: policy and then rust Ball in the Triumph of Power,
- 7:16Speaker 3: the most too important, the two most important guys going
- 7:18Speaker 3: forward that if this team is going to win a championship,
- 7:21Speaker 3: are going to be in the one jersey and in
- 7:23Speaker 3: the ten jersey, and however easy, however more simplistic and easier,
- 7:29Speaker 3: you can make their jobs the better and the easiest
- 7:32Speaker 3: way to see another step forward in Jordan Love's development,
- 7:35Speaker 3: which I thought this year was clearly the best of
- 7:37Speaker 3: his career, is by not changing the offense that he's
- 7:39Speaker 3: about to have exactly.
- 7:41Speaker 2: And that's the kind of newty and like, oh they're settling,
- 7:43Speaker 2: they're complacent, and they just want to, you know, sell stock,
- 7:46Speaker 2: and so people get people to go to Titletown and
- 7:48Speaker 2: go down the sledding hill and they don't care about winning.
- 7:51Speaker 1: Again. This is a team that just traded for Micah Parsons.
- 7:54Speaker 1: You're telling me that lot of talk and around the league.
- 8:01Speaker 2: Okay, Like you know, McDermot gets fired and he had
- 8:04Speaker 2: a pretty good run but didn't win the big one.
- 8:06Speaker 2: He was up against the monolith that was the Chiefs.
- 8:09Speaker 2: The Floor has been in the playoffs six out of
- 8:12Speaker 2: seven years, including the last three with the youngest roster
- 8:14Speaker 2: in the league, the youngest roster ever won.
- 8:17Speaker 3: A playoff game. And also Jordan Love is phenomenal. I
- 8:20Speaker 3: think he's great. He's not Josh Allen. And a lot
- 8:24Speaker 3: of those playoff games have not been at home, and
- 8:25Speaker 3: they haven't lost. As much as the Packers have raised
- 8:29Speaker 3: some of their playoff losses to an art form, they
- 8:31Speaker 3: haven't done it in some of that fashion. And the
- 8:33Speaker 3: other part is, and this is the alignment conversation that
- 8:36Speaker 3: I think is going to be interesting whenever they do
- 8:37Speaker 3: announce this group of extensions, because it really is a
- 8:41Speaker 3: grouping of extensions. It's three guys that are all getting extended.
- 8:44Speaker 3: We only talked about two mostly one of them in
- 8:47Speaker 3: the floor. But and however, the triangle of power starts
- 8:51Speaker 3: to build up, where the buffalo thing is a clear
- 8:55Speaker 3: and obvious power struggle.
- 8:56Speaker 1: I think the more and more we get posts more
- 8:59Speaker 1: to love it. It is.
- 9:01Speaker 3: One guy gets elevated and promoted, the other guy gets fired.
- 9:05Speaker 3: One guy was bitching and moaning about the roster all
- 9:07Speaker 3: year long. The other guy put together the roster. They're
- 9:10Speaker 3: moving into a new stadium, and they needed to say
- 9:13Speaker 3: one of you is gonna stay because this has got
- 9:15Speaker 3: too toxic. That part hasn't seeped in in Green Bay
- 9:20Speaker 3: at all. And that's that's the clear and obvious difference
- 9:22Speaker 3: where maybe the wins and losses in the playoff situations
- 9:25Speaker 3: could be somewhat simpler.
- 9:26Speaker 2: And again, like Lafleura just navigating that transition from Rogers
- 9:31Speaker 2: to love and developing love. Go back and watch the
- 9:33Speaker 2: film of Love's first start at Arrowhead when his mom
- 9:37Speaker 2: and Ronica were up in the top row. Looks like
- 9:39Speaker 2: a different quarterback. He's a different dude. And that's and
- 9:42Speaker 2: look at Malik. What did Malik Willis have to recommend
- 9:45Speaker 2: him coming out of Tennessee where Lafleur created a game
- 9:47Speaker 2: plan and just nurtured that guy into where he's gonna
- 9:49Speaker 2: make it gajillions, gonna make right, he's.
- 9:51Speaker 1: Gonna make a lot of money off of that.
- 9:52Speaker 2: And Lafleur did that and six out of seven years
- 9:55Speaker 2: going to the playoffs again, three with the youngest roster
- 9:57Speaker 2: like that ever been to a playoff. Is a oppressive
- 10:00Speaker 2: Maybe not so much here because everybody wants to win
- 10:02Speaker 2: all the time.
- 10:03Speaker 1: Yeah that, And I think this is going to be interesting.
- 10:05Speaker 3: As our five to one to five texters said, I
- 10:07Speaker 3: just like a Packers coach who didn't make head scratching
- 10:09Speaker 3: decisions sometimes, I wonder where his head's at during games.
- 10:13Speaker 3: And we still have not found out what processes will
- 10:17Speaker 3: be tweaked this year, because that is a part of
- 10:20Speaker 3: the conversations, and I think that's been certain for part
- 10:24Speaker 3: of this is how on earth are we going to
- 10:27Speaker 3: make sure that the in game process we're maybe taking
- 10:30Speaker 3: a take off of your plate here or helping you,
- 10:33Speaker 3: in aiding you and making some more of these decisions
- 10:36Speaker 3: of the game management while you're also calling plays.
- 10:38Speaker 1: Because he's not giving up play calling, I.
- 10:39Speaker 2: Sing interestingly, Robert Saligs is going to get the job
- 10:43Speaker 2: in Tennessee Ramond's boy, and he has said, like in
- 10:47Speaker 2: his first go round he lets someone else call the defense.
- 10:50Speaker 1: He's like, no, I'm gonna call the defense because that's
- 10:51Speaker 1: what I want to do.
- 10:52Speaker 2: Right, And so a lot of people are like, well,
- 10:54Speaker 2: if flif Floyd give up play calling, he could be
- 10:55Speaker 2: more of the CEO and have more of the three
- 10:58Speaker 2: hundred and sixty degree view of things, and stuff wouldn't
- 11:01Speaker 2: have fallen through the cracks, like, oh, we wouldn't have
- 11:03Speaker 2: ten guys have to take a time because we only
- 11:06Speaker 2: have ten guys on the field on the defense, right.
- 11:08Speaker 2: I don't know if that's the case or not. I
- 11:10Speaker 2: don't know if that's like oversimplifying things, no, and I
- 11:14Speaker 2: don't I don't think that's the case. I think the
- 11:16Speaker 2: other part of it is bringing in and what you
- 11:18Speaker 2: saw successfully with this defensive coordinator Jeff Haffley's the most
- 11:22Speaker 2: successful coordinator hire of Lafleur's career. Oh yeah, right, Like
- 11:27Speaker 2: Jerry is stuck with too long, Joe Berry stuck with
- 11:29Speaker 2: too long. Now he was kind of forced to keep
- 11:31Speaker 2: Mike Patton from the conversations and quickly was able to
- 11:34Speaker 2: move off him. The Modra and Menenga and potentially Rich
- 11:37Speaker 2: Pasacia on the special teams coordinator is going to be
- 11:40Speaker 2: a case of it. But I think the one part
- 11:43Speaker 2: of the operation that we saw work very successfully with
- 11:47Speaker 2: Halfley is somebody that was a head coach of the defense.
- 11:52Speaker 1: And that will be.
- 11:53Speaker 3: One where, sure, if you become more of a CEO,
- 11:56Speaker 3: I can have eyes on this, but I'm empowering in
- 12:00Speaker 3: and also paying somebody who's been a head coach to
- 12:02Speaker 3: be the coordinator of the defense that this is on
- 12:05Speaker 3: you and we're gonna con hopefully be successful with two
- 12:09Speaker 3: kind of full operations. And if you look at the
- 12:11Speaker 3: teams that are still playing right you look at the
- 12:13Speaker 3: teams that are still playing, you see the teams that
- 12:15Speaker 3: are the most successful right now. Vrabel is the CEO
- 12:19Speaker 3: version of a head coach. Josh McDaniel is also the
- 12:21Speaker 3: highest paid offensive coordinator in the league.
- 12:25Speaker 1: Is calling his own plays.
- 12:26Speaker 3: McDonald's calling the defense, and Sean Payton's calling the plays.
- 12:30Speaker 3: So all of this thought of well, it'll be so
- 12:32Speaker 3: much better if you get somebody else to call the plays,
- 12:35Speaker 3: I don't know that the playoff teams are showing you
- 12:37Speaker 3: that that's exactly true.
- 12:38Speaker 4: I don't think he wants to do it, like you
- 12:39Speaker 4: said many times billion and I think that that's why
- 12:42Speaker 4: you want to he Lafleur wants a decordinator that's going
- 12:45Speaker 4: to run the defense. It's gonna be a head coach,
- 12:47Speaker 4: so we can spend more time while the defense is
- 12:48Speaker 4: out there focusing on fixing the offense, because that's what
- 12:51Speaker 4: he's in. He's in his iPad all the time while
- 12:53Speaker 4: they're out there. So that that's the reality of it.
- 12:55Speaker 4: Remember guys, when Jeff Hafy was hired, none of us
- 12:58Speaker 4: brought his name up. I mean there was there were
- 13:00Speaker 4: a million names brought up. Everybody was speculating who the
- 13:03Speaker 4: next DC was gonna be. And I don't remember anyone saying,
- 13:06Speaker 4: I think they're gonna go pluck the head coach of
- 13:08Speaker 4: Boston Cottage. So you never know what's gonna happen. It
- 13:10Speaker 4: might be someone.
- 13:12Speaker 2: So where do we go after Halflee Raheem Morris is
- 13:14Speaker 2: out there, he's tight with Lafloor.
- 13:15Speaker 1: Jim Leonard turned him down once. Jim Leonard. Uh, well, now.
- 13:21Speaker 2: What if Jim Leonard gets elevated in Denver? You know
- 13:25Speaker 2: what if he gets elevated in.
- 13:26Speaker 3: It could be But the interesting thing there is Vance
- 13:28Speaker 3: Joseph who would be a retread. Now somebody that's a
- 13:32Speaker 3: or second opportunity guy at a head coaching job. It
- 13:35Speaker 3: doesn't look like he's gonna get one for how long
- 13:37Speaker 3: this is going with the Denver defense, Drew, you mentioned
- 13:40Speaker 3: two names.
- 13:41Speaker 1: That are clearly at the top of the list.
- 13:42Speaker 3: We're absolutely gonna see if Matt Lafleur is a guy
- 13:46Speaker 3: that can go back to somebody that turned him down,
- 13:48Speaker 3: right because reportedly Jim Leonard said him good here at
- 13:50Speaker 3: the University of Wisconsin and everything happened in Madison for
- 13:54Speaker 3: a couple of years, that would be Raheem Morris has
- 13:57Speaker 3: been the cleanest one and the one that makes the
- 13:59Speaker 3: most sense. But why can't we do what Minnesota has
- 14:02Speaker 3: done so many times? Why can't we be the team
- 14:05Speaker 3: that as his contract ended and expired in January of
- 14:09Speaker 3: twenty twenty six and he's interviewing for defensive coordinator jobs,
- 14:12Speaker 3: he didn't get a head coaching job. He needs to
- 14:14Speaker 3: be the number one candidate for every defensive coordinator position available.
- 14:18Speaker 1: There we go, Billy, I like that one.
- 14:19Speaker 4: Now Let's go get bi Let's go pluck floras from them,
- 14:22Speaker 4: hes go make them it makes.
- 14:25Speaker 2: Your head spin what Floras would do with Michael Parsons.
- 14:27Speaker 2: I'm telling you, let's head coaching job it would be.
- 14:33Speaker 2: And now where's the waxy build up there with Kevin
- 14:36Speaker 2: O'Connell and Flora is like, what's the.
- 14:39Speaker 3: That's a good question, because you know Flora or O'Connell
- 14:42Speaker 3: said a couple of days ago. You know, I got
- 14:44Speaker 3: a lot of confidence that he'll be back as the
- 14:46Speaker 3: defensive coordinator. And you know, maybe it's one of those
- 14:49Speaker 3: deals that you just he has to right, wrong or indifferent.
- 14:53Speaker 3: I think Brian Flores needs to prove it more than
- 14:55Speaker 3: anybody else that he can be a head coach again
- 14:59Speaker 3: because he is the only active candidate that I believe
- 15:02Speaker 3: the lawsuit is still active against the NFL.
- 15:05Speaker 1: That's a difficult thing for an owner to bring in.
- 15:08Speaker 3: Uh So, maybe it's like he just feels he has
- 15:11Speaker 3: to go around different places to prove the word again
- 15:16Speaker 3: and improve that he has it. But also, you got
- 15:18Speaker 3: a lot of change potentially coming in that Vikings defense,
- 15:21Speaker 3: where here you'd have continuity in the in the secondary,
- 15:23Speaker 3: you might get some new corners. He'll test those corners
- 15:26Speaker 3: absolutely so. But you know Micah Parson's got potentially kway
- 15:30Speaker 3: Walker back already, Adrian Cooper in the middle, Tyron Hopper
- 15:34Speaker 3: to play with hopefully a healthy DeVante.
- 15:36Speaker 1: Why that'd be an appetizing thing to be.
- 15:38Speaker 3: Able to put in front of him as well as
- 15:40Speaker 3: you know, like four or five million bucks you're gonna
- 15:42Speaker 3: have to pay him. He'd be the highest paid defensive coordinator.
- 15:45Speaker 3: But if he is interviewing for coordinator positions, he needs
- 15:50Speaker 3: to be at the top of everybody's list.
- 15:52Speaker 1: And this one in particular, how did Raheem Morris do
- 15:55Speaker 1: in his last DC job with the Rams.
- 15:57Speaker 3: I believe they won the Super Bowl if I'm not
- 15:59Speaker 3: mistakes wonder Yep, it's just.
- 16:00Speaker 2: One yeah, and he's been a head coach at two
- 16:06Speaker 2: spots yep, champ in Atlanta.
- 16:08Speaker 4: The problem is there's head coaching jobs open, So some
- 16:10Speaker 4: of these guys.
- 16:11Speaker 1: That's the thing, you know, That's.
- 16:13Speaker 3: The thing That's where Flora is to me is the
- 16:15Speaker 3: is the interesting one arm And because if I'm Pittsburgh
- 16:19Speaker 3: very interested in Flores, right, he had already been.
- 16:22Speaker 1: In the building.
- 16:22Speaker 3: I believe Tomlin and the Steelers were the first team
- 16:25Speaker 3: that hired him post lawsuit against the NFL.
- 16:28Speaker 1: Right, So the Rooney family is not afraid of it.
- 16:31Speaker 3: But I don't see a lot of people beating the
- 16:36Speaker 3: drum uh for the other ones to be head coaches.
- 16:39Speaker 3: But you also had you know, Anthony Campanelli was in
- 16:41Speaker 3: the building last year and now he's getting head coaching
- 16:44Speaker 3: uh interviews as the Jaguars DC with one year. So UH,
- 16:49Speaker 3: it's an ever changing position. It's one that you're probably,
- 16:52Speaker 3: if good, gonna have to change time and time again.
- 16:56Speaker 3: The Morris one with the connection with him and the floor,
- 16:59Speaker 3: the friendship that have and the amount of time that
- 17:02Speaker 3: they've worked together. Morris was also the only guy that
- 17:07Speaker 3: doesn't get talked about on that Redskins staff back in
- 17:11Speaker 3: the early twenty tens under Mike Shanahan that was also
- 17:14Speaker 3: a head coach.
- 17:15Speaker 1: So he's got.
- 17:16Speaker 3: Some real connection with Lafleur that if it wouldn't be
- 17:20Speaker 3: Flora's I think it would be there. People are also
- 17:22Speaker 3: linking that Christian Parker to the Green Bay Packers, a
- 17:25Speaker 3: real fast Riser or somebody that interviewed already if they
- 17:29Speaker 3: want to.
- 17:29Speaker 1: Do the contuit. I think DeMarcus Covington's already in the
- 17:32Speaker 1: building and he's.
- 17:32Speaker 3: A candidate around the league and from last week's rhetoric
- 17:36Speaker 3: and conversation online. Well, they're just gonna hire prim with
- 17:39Speaker 3: him because it's the cheapest thing to do, right, Like
- 17:42Speaker 3: if that, if that is the case, and again this
- 17:44Speaker 3: will be a push comes to shove conversation. If anybody
- 17:48Speaker 3: in twelve sixty five and in the Green Bay Packers
- 17:51Speaker 3: cares at all about what people are saying online, they don't.
- 17:55Speaker 3: But if there's any merit to what's being said online,
- 17:58Speaker 3: I think you might be able to see with how
- 18:00Speaker 3: this plays out. Do you go and spend top shelf
- 18:02Speaker 3: on a defensive coordinator like you did it special teams
- 18:05Speaker 3: and you've stuck with on special teams?
- 18:08Speaker 1: Or is there more shuffling underneath.
- 18:11Speaker 2: Matt that still is here to come interesting And we're
- 18:13Speaker 2: not even talking about the guy who might be as
- 18:15Speaker 2: important as anything else. The third leg of the tripot
- 18:18Speaker 2: russ Ball and the salary cap management packers have been.
- 18:21Speaker 2: There are teams that look at them and go, how
- 18:23Speaker 2: are they doing it? Like how do they always get
- 18:25Speaker 2: to keep guys? And there's gonna be some change and
- 18:28Speaker 2: the roster. There's gonna be some guys dropping off and
- 18:30Speaker 2: coming on board because there's some guys that need to
- 18:32Speaker 2: get paid. But the Packers have managed that as well
- 18:34Speaker 2: as anybody because they've never had to bottom out. They
- 18:37Speaker 2: didn't have to go like way the Patriots did post Belichick.
- 18:40Speaker 2: Look what the Saints did post Drew Breese. They're still
- 18:42Speaker 2: wander through the wilderness, right and the Packers have been
- 18:45Speaker 2: rolling along and you know this and it's the Yeah,
- 18:50Speaker 2: it's but it's like, oh, people can consistency complacency.
- 18:53Speaker 1: Well, the flip side of that is, you know.
- 18:56Speaker 2: Success, Yeah, sustained says right there that other team's competitiveness Conso,
- 19:03Speaker 2: no question when we come back, we're gonna do a
- 19:05Speaker 2: little buying or selling. We're bringing back some of the
- 19:07Speaker 2: elements from previous shows and dusting them off.
- 19:09Speaker 1: We're gonna be buying her selling. Be ready.
- 19:11Speaker 2: You can get us on the nicol a lot Com

- 20:02Speaker 2: and armand bringing it to you.
- 20:06Speaker 1: I'm glad we took Monday off.
- 20:07Speaker 2: It would have been great to have like our Lafleur
- 20:09Speaker 2: takes a day earlier. But it's a good first show
- 20:13Speaker 2: with the National Championship game being a classic and the
- 20:16Speaker 2: floor dude, it's hard to beat.
- 20:18Speaker 3: And I'll be honest with you, I enjoyed it because
- 20:22Speaker 3: it allowed me to do what Armond sorry and said
- 20:25Speaker 3: Bears fans did a week ago, and that was be
- 20:29Speaker 3: awful work and consume all of the hate.
- 20:31Speaker 1: Content that I possibly could. I watched Ben.
- 20:33Speaker 3: Johnson's postgame press conference. I watched Caleb Williams postgame press conference.
- 20:38Speaker 3: I listened to AM one thousand all over the place,
- 20:41Speaker 3: and I.
- 20:42Speaker 1: Took in a little bit of the score.
- 20:43Speaker 3: It was beautiful to just drink all of their tears
- 20:47Speaker 3: in and enjoy the fact that now we got to
- 20:49Speaker 3: figure out what to do with all those cheese graders,
- 20:51Speaker 3: I forget. I'st you could make some phenomenal you know,
- 20:55Speaker 3: single man the worst dad nachos, those are the best, right,
- 20:58Speaker 3: just spread that she use those chimps that you're gonna
- 21:02Speaker 3: throw the microwave. You can do a nice deal with that.
- 21:04Speaker 3: What you can also, uh, you know, babies love shredded cheese.
- 21:09Speaker 3: Little ones love shredded It eats a lot of shredded cheese.
- 21:12Speaker 3: Do you start doing that instead of buying it in
- 21:14Speaker 3: the bag, You're actually gonna say a decent amount of money.
- 21:16Speaker 4: I opened the fridge and she doesn't see what's going on.
- 21:19Speaker 4: She's on alert in her seat, and I just start
- 21:20Speaker 4: shaking that bag. Yeah, girl, there's no doubt about it.
- 21:26Speaker 4: But I mean they were even the pal Mark games,
- 21:28Speaker 4: tread and cheese. I'm like, get out of your.
- 21:31Speaker 1: Mother couldn't believe it.
- 21:32Speaker 4: Now.
- 21:32Speaker 1: My mother was pissed.
- 21:33Speaker 3: She said, if I would have been that security guard,
- 21:36Speaker 3: you know, you're picking this up, someone that up. You're
- 21:39Speaker 3: cleaning this up if you're gonna do And Leroy was right,
- 21:42Speaker 3: that's still cheese. It is still sorry.
- 21:44Speaker 4: It's so it was nice to soak that in a
- 21:48Speaker 4: little bit. They're still coming at me on on my
- 21:50Speaker 4: Twitter mansion.
- 21:51Speaker 1: But you did ask for it again.
- 21:53Speaker 2: Didn't you lay out that they're not going to make
- 21:55Speaker 2: the playoffs next year, that because the market's gonna correct.
- 21:58Speaker 1: They won a lot of close games this year. We
- 22:00Speaker 1: seen it before.
- 22:00Speaker 3: I think you went even harder than that, didn't you.
- 22:02Speaker 3: Did you say they wouldn't be five hundred.
- 22:04Speaker 4: I said they won't even be five hundred next year,
- 22:06Speaker 4: and I said, bookmark me, and boy, have they man
- 22:09Speaker 4: some pretty nice.
- 22:11Speaker 3: To you?
- 22:12Speaker 1: I asked you to do waiting. Oh my god.
- 22:16Speaker 2: The thing with the Bears is they had all their
- 22:18Speaker 2: offensive linemen healthy the whole year, and now they got
- 22:20Speaker 2: some cap stuff to worry about.
- 22:22Speaker 1: They do, but see that's the thing.
- 22:24Speaker 4: They they have a first play schedule to deal with.
- 22:27Speaker 4: They have to worry about the turnover aggression that might
- 22:30Speaker 4: happen to the Packers this year.
- 22:32Speaker 1: The reality is I could be wrong, but I don't.
- 22:34Speaker 1: I really don't think I will be.
- 22:36Speaker 4: I think they're gonna win seven or eight games, and
- 22:38Speaker 4: that's the reality of it.
- 22:39Speaker 3: Now.
- 22:39Speaker 1: It could be if calem keeps getting better, then I
- 22:42Speaker 1: might be.
- 22:42Speaker 3: You did also predict the Vikings would have the number
- 22:45Speaker 3: one overall pick this year. Yeah.
- 22:47Speaker 1: Well you don't get them all right, Bill.
- 22:49Speaker 3: No, But I mean, I'm just saying your hate bold predictions,
- 22:52Speaker 3: you at least own them. And this one I thought
- 22:55Speaker 3: was actually a little lighter than I thought you were
- 22:56Speaker 3: gonna got.
- 22:57Speaker 1: I didn't that controversial.
- 22:59Speaker 3: I thought you were gonna a most guarantee the Bears
- 23:01Speaker 3: are gonna have a top ten pick next year. Yeah,
- 23:02Speaker 3: and I'm glad you you cushioned yourself a little bit here. However,
- 23:08Speaker 3: there's there's a lot to it, and they got a
- 23:10Speaker 3: lot of offensive linemen that are gonna be question marks.
- 23:13Speaker 3: Drew their left tackle is a question because they kind
- 23:16Speaker 3: of liked the rookie and now he's gonna be out
- 23:18Speaker 3: for mostly all of next year as well, so they
- 23:22Speaker 3: got some questions to do. However, they look like they
- 23:25Speaker 3: got a great quarterback like talent wise, looks like he's phenomenal.
- 23:29Speaker 3: Looks like Ben Johnson is a really really good head coach. However,
- 23:33Speaker 3: they have now played the same amount of playoff games
- 23:35Speaker 3: that Mitch Trubisky and Matt Nagge did.
- 23:37Speaker 1: For The Man Show.
- 23:38Speaker 2: Hey, it's time for a little buying or selling our
- 23:40Speaker 2: little props here. You can hit us up with yours
- 23:42Speaker 2: eight seven seven seven N one three not quite. We
- 23:47Speaker 2: are buying and selling, and I will open the bidding
- 23:49Speaker 2: by saying, are you buying or selling the fact that
- 23:52Speaker 2: the way ESPN presented the National Championship Game, they've figured
- 23:54Speaker 2: that out and that means they will do a good
- 23:57Speaker 2: job when they get.
- 23:58Speaker 1: The Super Bowl a year from now.
- 24:00Speaker 3: Well, I'm okay, Drew, I'm glad you said this because
- 24:02Speaker 3: I must sell it a tick because I thought they
- 24:05Speaker 3: would have done a better job on Sunday with the
- 24:07Speaker 3: divisional game. Now, granted, they funneled everybody to either ABC
- 24:11Speaker 3: or ESPN, and I don't know if it's what their
- 24:14Speaker 3: contract difference is with the NFL and college football. My
- 24:17Speaker 3: wife massive Pat McAfee fan, so we watched the field
- 24:21Speaker 3: Pass last night and not for the Herb Street and
- 24:25Speaker 3: Follower broadcast. However, I couldn't get enough, and my second
- 24:28Speaker 3: streen was on the skycast because I love the end
- 24:31Speaker 3: zone copy and being able to see the replay how
- 24:34Speaker 3: I want to see of the All twenty two. So
- 24:36Speaker 3: I think they knock it out of the park with
- 24:38Speaker 3: the college one, but I don't know if the NFL
- 24:40Speaker 3: is going to give them an opportunity to have all
- 24:42Speaker 3: of those different strings, the bells and whistles, and all
- 24:44Speaker 3: the resources they are going to force into it. Plus
- 24:47Speaker 3: they're going to have to do it in pretty quick order,
- 24:49Speaker 3: right to go from the Cohonball Championship to the super Bowl.
- 24:53Speaker 3: It is an interesting thing that they're going to be
- 24:54Speaker 3: presenting the Super.
- 24:56Speaker 1: Bowl because I like the alternate ways of watching.
- 25:00Speaker 4: Now.
- 25:00Speaker 3: Granted, I can't say I check out on the Amazon copy,
- 25:02Speaker 3: even though I love Saam Schwartz and the genius behind
- 25:06Speaker 3: the Prime Video Analytics spot of it, I can't say
- 25:09Speaker 3: I watched that cast. But I like having alternate opportunities,
- 25:14Speaker 3: and the different camera angles is a big one. Also,
- 25:16Speaker 3: they've they've done different calls with the local broadcasts along
- 25:21Speaker 3: with the TV and if you you give me that
- 25:23Speaker 3: during a Super Bowl, especially now, Grant it'll be ESPN,
- 25:27Speaker 3: so we'll still have to suffer through ROMO whenever CBS
- 25:30Speaker 3: gets it again. But I would like to see them
- 25:33Speaker 3: have more leeway in the different kind of broadcast because
- 25:36Speaker 3: that's the difference I see in the two.
- 25:38Speaker 1: So I'd sell it a toeck.
- 25:39Speaker 2: Are you buying or selling the fact that somebody in
- 25:41Speaker 2: the truck are working a camera. Knew that a Bella
- 25:44Speaker 2: Danger was in the crowd for cheering from Miami. Actually
- 25:47Speaker 2: has been she's been getting before. Uh, they don't google
- 25:52Speaker 2: her at work people. But she's an adult film star
- 25:55Speaker 2: who actually happens to have I think now matriculated from
- 25:58Speaker 2: the University of Miami. I think she might have graduate
- 26:00Speaker 2: within her she's been pursuing a degree there and she's
- 26:03Speaker 2: just he's a big Canes fan. Oh yeah, I mean
- 26:06Speaker 2: she's been all over the place. But they flashed her
- 26:09Speaker 2: out for a second and then got her got she
- 26:12Speaker 2: was off, and it's like if you know, you know,
- 26:14Speaker 2: it was one of those deals where if you know,
- 26:16Speaker 2: you know, you had to throw the shots. Are you
- 26:18Speaker 2: are you buying her selling that they knew, but they were.
- 26:21Speaker 2: They were just like they're putting the hand over the
- 26:23Speaker 2: stove a little bit like, oh that's enough, quick quick shot.
- 26:27Speaker 4: Arm Oh there's smirking in the truck. When they do that,
- 26:30Speaker 4: I think they know what they're doing and they know
- 26:31Speaker 4: what people or looking to see.
- 26:33Speaker 3: Let's but is producer yelling go to shot for Is
- 26:37Speaker 3: that guy sitting back saying shot for the director? I've
- 26:42Speaker 3: seen four shots of that before. I would be interested
- 26:45Speaker 3: to see. I also would like to know how many
- 26:48Speaker 3: times in the truck they saw a bellow danger and
- 26:51Speaker 3: and if the camera guy was just locked in there
- 26:53Speaker 3: right when they do the crowd shots man and he's
- 26:55Speaker 3: scanning through, maybe maybe the camera guy finds the one
- 26:58Speaker 3: cute little kid that's doing, you know, chugging soda throughout,
- 27:03Speaker 3: or the one guy that drinks four beers during the game.
- 27:06Speaker 3: And this guy's like, well, look at this is this
- 27:08Speaker 3: is just a very very excited Canes fan. They're like, hey, Bob,
- 27:11Speaker 3: hey Pete, we didn't get a two hands on the camera.
- 27:15Speaker 1: Let's do the whole shot. Let's do the whole stadium here.
- 27:17Speaker 2: We didn't get a Brent Musburger moment, right, No, girls, No,
- 27:23Speaker 2: they didn't, of course not.
- 27:24Speaker 3: Peter herbs Street wanted to every red blood in America.
- 27:27Speaker 3: Peter hurb Street was barking on the on the set,
- 27:30Speaker 3: but quieted that one doubt they saw they were buying
- 27:36Speaker 3: it all.
- 27:36Speaker 2: Right, you're buying are selling that it's a big deal
- 27:38Speaker 2: that Jannis is going to be a ten time All Star.
- 27:41Speaker 2: He said that was one of his goals and that
- 27:44Speaker 2: in this you know, clunker of a Bucks season to
- 27:46Speaker 2: date the first half.
- 27:47Speaker 1: They did win yesterday and almost pooped away lead.
- 27:49Speaker 2: But are you buying that that the All Star Game
- 27:52Speaker 2: will be a pivot point for Jannis in the whole
- 27:55Speaker 2: discussion about whether he's going to be traded or out
- 27:56Speaker 2: and what's going to happen.
- 27:57Speaker 3: Well, I'm gonna sell it because I don't think it's
- 28:00Speaker 3: happening this year, right. I think it's gonna happen potentially
- 28:03Speaker 3: more in the off season. However, now everybody is watching
- 28:07Speaker 3: NBC's coverage of the NBA. Everybody was watching it yesterday,
- 28:11Speaker 3: and Carmelo Anthony said that he thinks, you know, maybe
- 28:14Speaker 3: the way Giannis talked to Sam Amock of The Athletic
- 28:19Speaker 3: He said, he thinks that Giannis has already told the Bucks,
- 28:22Speaker 3: I'm in for the next deal.
- 28:23Speaker 1: I'll sign the extension.
- 28:25Speaker 2: There is that financial element where he can make more
- 28:27Speaker 2: money staying than going.
- 28:29Speaker 1: He can make more money.
- 28:30Speaker 3: He can also go into free agency and never actually
- 28:34Speaker 3: demand a trade. He can say I'm not gonna sign
- 28:36Speaker 3: an extension, and then you know, the employee gets told
- 28:40Speaker 3: that he gets traded.
- 28:41Speaker 1: Because he is just an employee. As he said, But
- 28:44Speaker 1: I'm selling it.
- 28:44Speaker 3: I think there's more conversation behind closed doors, and he's
- 28:48Speaker 3: either closer to extending with the Bucks. Here's the other
- 28:52Speaker 3: one retiring and going playing in a different league for
- 28:56Speaker 3: oodles more money, way more money, and potentially closer to
- 29:01Speaker 3: his uh to his home.
- 29:02Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 29:02Speaker 4: I think he's beyond frustrated with losing, but I'm very
- 29:05Speaker 4: optimistic about the situation with the Bucks, more than most
- 29:07Speaker 4: people are. And I think every time he has one
- 29:10Speaker 4: the Bucks have a negative moment, or he shows any
- 29:12Speaker 4: frustration or had the booing moment, everybody jumps on that hole.
- 29:16Speaker 4: He's just gonna be gone, and they're mostly now Bucks fans.
- 29:18Speaker 4: And that's to me where I get frustrated a bit,
- 29:21Speaker 4: because it's like it seems like most people want to
- 29:23Speaker 4: move on from the honest business, which I don't really get.
- 29:25Speaker 4: So I'm selling any idea that the All Star Game
- 29:28Speaker 4: is going to be any sort of entree to conversation
- 29:31Speaker 4: around him leaving. I'm buying him being here, and I
- 29:33Speaker 4: think the Bucks are going to keep trying to win.
- 29:35Speaker 4: The frustrating part is they can't seem to string together
- 29:37Speaker 4: wins and get a team, and then that is what's frustrating.
- 29:40Speaker 4: Honest and where a lot of the negativity comes from
- 29:43Speaker 4: is when he can't win.
- 29:44Speaker 2: He's frustrated what we all are. So I appreciate the
- 29:46Speaker 2: competitors side of that. I also here's here's my last
- 29:50Speaker 2: submission here. You're buying are selling that moving on from
- 29:53Speaker 2: Doc Rivers at this time would be the prudent move
- 29:56Speaker 2: for the bucks.
- 29:57Speaker 1: I'm buying that. Yeah, I'll buy it. I'll buy I.
- 30:00Speaker 2: Am, but with a caveat, with a disclaimer. Only if
- 30:03Speaker 2: you get the guy and you have in your sights
- 30:05Speaker 2: the guy who's gonna be the guy for four years.
- 30:08Speaker 2: Moving Darvin Ham over twenty four inches to the next
- 30:11Speaker 2: chair isn't gonna really change things fundamentally.
- 30:13Speaker 1: I don't think. No, it's not gonna put the paddles
- 30:15Speaker 1: to the season.
- 30:16Speaker 2: But if if there's a guy you have who's available
- 30:19Speaker 2: now they Taylor Jenkins or somebody like that, or somebody
- 30:21Speaker 2: that you have your eye on that you want to
- 30:23Speaker 2: bring in now and move forward, then they could write
- 30:26Speaker 2: the check and buy back out.
- 30:27Speaker 1: But otherwise it's like you're gonna ride the seat. This
- 30:29Speaker 1: was supposed to be a gap year.
- 30:31Speaker 2: Anyway, they're paying Dame not to play, and it's like
- 30:33Speaker 2: this is supposed to be a gap year, absolutely.
- 30:35Speaker 3: Well, and does it almost feel like they're doing a
- 30:36Speaker 3: silent tank, right, because the Bucks do if I remember correctly,
- 30:40Speaker 3: they do get their first They do get a first
- 30:43Speaker 3: round pick this year, they can trade it on draft night.
- 30:45Speaker 3: They just get the worst of like two different teams
- 30:48Speaker 3: or three different teams pick which all are bad teams.
- 30:51Speaker 3: So they should get a still decent pick. It'll be
- 30:54Speaker 3: interesting to see because Drew, they are going to make
- 30:58Speaker 3: a change at some particular point in time. But I
- 31:01Speaker 3: think there's something too also, the new president coming in,
- 31:04Speaker 3: the new ownership getting their guy in here, and then
- 31:09Speaker 3: maybe we we fully hand over the pink slip of
- 31:12Speaker 3: the organization and the operation coming.
- 31:13Speaker 2: Up in the offseason could be. And that's where that
- 31:16Speaker 2: one rolls through. What do you got first buy er?
- 31:17Speaker 2: Cell Billy?
- 31:18Speaker 1: All right, let me let me hit this one with you.
- 31:19Speaker 3: Guys, because Tom Pelasaro just added this a couple of
- 31:22Speaker 3: minutes ago that Super Bowl winning head coach Mike McCarthy
- 31:26Speaker 3: will interview Wednesday for the Pittsburgh Steelers. McCarthy, a candidate
- 31:30Speaker 3: for the Titans job before withdrawing his name on Monday morning,
- 31:36Speaker 3: has turned down other inquiries, he has focused on the
- 31:39Speaker 3: Pittsburgh job, where he's considered a strong candidate. He is
- 31:43Speaker 3: a Pittsburgh guy. Are you buying Mike McCarthy to the
- 31:46Speaker 3: Pittsburgh Steelers to coach his hometown team?
- 31:48Speaker 2: Man, there's no sentiment in the NFL, but it would
- 31:53Speaker 2: be a good fit, don't it.
- 31:54Speaker 1: I mean, he just with the fans like it. Honestly,
- 31:58Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 31:59Speaker 2: I don't know what he did with I mean, what
- 32:02Speaker 2: was what was your take on his tenure in Dallas?
- 32:06Speaker 1: I thought I thought it was good, not great.
- 32:08Speaker 3: I don't know that he was the reason why they
- 32:10Speaker 3: lost those playoff games. I think that they had some
- 32:13Speaker 3: some bigger holes. But uh, I think he's a really
- 32:16Speaker 3: good coach. I don't know why he doesn't get brought
- 32:18Speaker 3: up in the conversations of the Peyton and the Hardway.
- 32:23Speaker 3: Sean Payton and Mike McCarthy have almost identical records, But
- 32:26Speaker 3: Peyton's got a better pr agent.
- 32:28Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, because he just says this like he's a genius.
- 32:31Speaker 2: Their records are almost identical, right, but Peyton's refer to
- 32:35Speaker 2: McCarthy seene as this.
- 32:36Speaker 1: Kind of bumbling guy.
- 32:37Speaker 3: I also think the interesting one here, arman, is the
- 32:40Speaker 3: the McAfee part of this, where McFee Pittsburgh guy.
- 32:44Speaker 1: He had McCarthy on all year long.
- 32:46Speaker 3: I think Pat McAfee is probably the most famous guy
- 32:50Speaker 3: in Pittsburgh outside of Ben Roethlisberger and Paul Skeens right now.
- 32:54Speaker 3: So if he if he stamps the higher I think
- 32:57Speaker 3: some Pittsburgh fans might be in on it.
- 32:59Speaker 1: That's an interesting point. I bind it. I think it
- 33:01Speaker 1: makes way too much sense.
- 33:02Speaker 4: I mean, if Mike McCarthy, first of all, with this,
- 33:05Speaker 4: with this many jobs open and this kind of hiring cycle,
- 33:07Speaker 4: what's available, what meets on the shelf, If he doesn't
- 33:10Speaker 4: get a job now, I don't think it's gonna happen.
- 33:12Speaker 4: I thought he's gonna get the SAME's job last offseason.
- 33:14Speaker 4: I think he's being selective though, to be honest with you,
- 33:16Speaker 4: and I think there's a lot of teams that would
- 33:17Speaker 4: love to have him, and I don't know why you wouldn't.
- 33:19Speaker 4: I think this is a guy that's an experienced coach,
- 33:22Speaker 4: obviously has had success with multiple touchdown organizations, and he's
- 33:26Speaker 4: a guy that has shown you he can be the
- 33:28Speaker 4: stalwart of the an organization, that he can be a
- 33:31Speaker 4: stately influence.
- 33:32Speaker 1: I think it makes too much sense for him to
- 33:34Speaker 1: be in Pittsburgh.
- 33:35Speaker 2: Yes, does his probability of getting the job in Pittsburgh?
- 33:39Speaker 3: Does it hinge on whether Rogers is back or not? Well,
- 33:43Speaker 3: and that's the other one here. Do you if McCarthy
- 33:47Speaker 3: is in Pittsburgh, how does Aaron not come back for
- 33:50Speaker 3: one week?
- 33:50Speaker 4: Right?
- 33:50Speaker 1: You have to?
- 33:51Speaker 2: Or does it hurt get along with it? Was it
- 33:55Speaker 2: fraid to where they could they work together again? I
- 33:57Speaker 2: think they probably could.
- 33:58Speaker 1: But I think they could. I think they want Does
- 34:01Speaker 1: Aaron want to go to Minnesota for a year?
- 34:03Speaker 3: I thought about that last j McCarthy, don't make don't
- 34:07Speaker 3: make arm in this set.
- 34:08Speaker 1: I just sweat out another spring.
- 34:11Speaker 4: That was the most he that was the most nerve
- 34:14Speaker 4: racking few weeks. I just sweat that big thing up.
- 34:18Speaker 1: Man. I don't know, because if I'm the Vikings, I'm
- 34:20Speaker 1: begging him to come. But well they didn't.
- 34:21Speaker 3: Yeah, they didn't want him last year. They didn't want
- 34:23Speaker 3: to be in the Aaron Rodgers business. Last year. I
- 34:25Speaker 3: would I'd potentially urge them to this offseason if they'd
- 34:28Speaker 3: be interesting. I gave you one more here. I hear
- 34:30Speaker 3: the music play ahead because this one might not be
- 34:33Speaker 3: sports related, but I think it was. It was clear
- 34:36Speaker 3: and obvious to my life yesterday. You buying are selling
- 34:39Speaker 3: grilling in the cold because I had I had taken
- 34:42Speaker 3: some some meta that I had to cook yesterday, and
- 34:45Speaker 3: your boy busted the tragger out in the minus twenty
- 34:48Speaker 3: seven degrees and smoked some ribs. Now, I felt really dumb,
- 34:53Speaker 3: but also felt pretty manly when I walked that bad
- 34:55Speaker 3: boy back in and unwrapped and had all the steam
- 34:59Speaker 3: flowing through it.
- 35:00Speaker 2: I'm buying you doing it, and I'm selling me doing
- 35:02Speaker 2: it because you do that, and.
- 35:04Speaker 4: I'll be like, yeah, man, absolutely, I generally buy grilling
- 35:07Speaker 4: in the winter, but there's no way that that meat
- 35:09Speaker 4: is gonna cook right when it's cold.
- 35:13Speaker 1: I was assaulted.
- 35:14Speaker 4: Get the moist strug'smos leaving at room temperature supposed to
- 35:17Speaker 4: get that, SERI, but it's this coal.
- 35:18Speaker 1: The way this steam is coming on. You're telling me
- 35:20Speaker 1: a tragger machine is.
- 35:24Speaker 2: I'll give my blackstone up to four fifty or so
- 35:26Speaker 2: and sear those smash burgers up.
- 35:28Speaker 1: That'd be pretty good. I did. Als.
- 35:32Speaker 2: Hey, there's a lot of decisions being made in the
- 35:35Speaker 2: National Football League as we speak.
- 35:36Speaker 1: The coaching carousel continues to uh to whirl and UH.
- 35:41Speaker 2: I made a great decision a couple of years ago,
- 35:43Speaker 2: had my hip or place Orthopedic Associates of Wisconsin. My
- 35:45Speaker 2: pals at o AW the best in the business, world

- 36:04Speaker 2: a year and a half. Don't do it. Don't you say,
- 36:07Speaker 2: Ah'll get better. I tried to go physical therapy. I'll
- 36:09Speaker 2: just stretch more. No, I needed a hip or place.
