Transcript
- 0:00Bag alert, bag alert, bag alert, bag alert, bag alert folksy.
- 0:07I keep telling you guys, and you guys don't listen, but I keep telling you guys, this
- 0:11is exactly why we are the greatest football podcast in the world.
- 0:16Because you know why?
- 0:17Just as I was getting ready to finish editing and put out the previous episode, guess what
- 0:21happens?
- 0:22Bam!
- 0:23Boodle Baker gets paid.
- 0:24Kirk Cousins gets benched.
- 0:26All the crazy things happen either when I'm recording, when I'm done recording, or when
- 0:32I'm about to record.
- 0:33It happens every time.
- 0:35I'm just saying, just trying to make a connection.
- 0:38They're coincidence, I think not.
- 0:39But as I just said, Boodle Baker gets paid.
- 0:42Kirk Cousins gets benched.
- 0:44Michael Pinnick's is in.
- 0:45Okay, we have to talk about the ins and outs of that, all the financials and whatnot.
- 0:49Broncos vs Chargers preview tonight, Texans and Chiefs, and Steelers and Ravens on Saturday.
- 0:58We got a loaded episode.
- 1:00We got a loaded weekend, a pre-Christmas gift for all the football junkies in the world,
- 1:08okay?
- 1:09Because you know why?
- 1:10We got football on Saturday starting at 11 o'clock.
- 1:13Okay, and then we got football on Sunday, then you got football on Monday, then you got
- 1:18football on Wednesday.
- 1:20It's just a whole bunch of football just everywhere, okay?
- 1:23But this is the 56th episode of the Football Junkies podcast, okay?
- 1:28I am your host with the most, okay?
- 1:30I'm your chief bagrodomist.
- 1:32I am your chief head of the table, all things related to football from Mock Drass, which
- 1:38we'll be talking about fairly soon.
- 1:40Just you wait, still looking at some all 22 footage from a few people, okay?
- 1:44Just giving you a heads up, okay?
- 1:46As well as everything related to the bag alerts and money related to football, okay?
- 1:52But guess what?
- 1:53I am all these things or more, but I am your GM who currently is not on a team right now,
- 2:00but don't you worry about it, okay?
- 2:02Don't you worry your little head, my fellow football junkie, because guess what?
- 2:07The most important thing that you must remember is I am your host, Kale.
- 2:12You already know how these episodes go.
- 2:14You already know how these intros go.
- 2:15So guess what?
- 2:16On three, one, two, three, let's lock in.
- 2:22All right, folks, let's just get into the meat and potato.
- 2:46Let's get into the meat and potatoes of everything that is going on in the league right now,
- 2:56okay?
- 2:57So yes, yes, yes, we got football on Saturday, but before we get to that, we got football
- 3:04tonight.
- 3:05But before we get to that, we got to talk about the bag alert, the surprise bag alert,
- 3:09if we can be honest here, okay?
- 3:11So Buddha Baker, safety for the Cardinals, ain't a three-year, $54 million extension
- 3:18to stay with them folks.
- 3:2030 million guaranteed, and he will be making 18 million a year, okay?
- 3:25Now when we look at his stats this year so far, 142 total tackles, two sacks, three past
- 3:31afflictions.
- 3:32When you probably read these stats and when you probably look at his stats, you're probably
- 3:36thinking, they pay 18 million for that?
- 3:39Listen, Buddha Baker is someone who has been loyal to the team through and through, okay?
- 3:46He's been with them when they were tanking.
- 3:49He's been with them when they're winning, like they like how they're winning now.
- 3:53He's been through it all, okay?
- 3:55And what better way to reward a player who has been loyal to the organization through
- 4:00and through, who was supposed to be a free agent after this season, but now with this
- 4:05deal, of course, he's now locked in.
- 4:06And most likely he will retire a Cardinal.
- 4:10So all in all, it's a great situation, okay?
- 4:13Because similar to the Garibald situation, you have somebody who was looking for a new
- 4:17deal and had no problem hitting free agency next year at all.
- 4:22And so both of those teams realize the impact that they play on their teams, not just on
- 4:28the field, but also off the field, in the locker room, in practice, every aspect of
- 4:34the team.
- 4:36They play a major role in it.
- 4:37And what better way to reward those type of players than to make them a Bronco as well
- 4:44as a Cardinal for life.
- 4:46And so all in all, it's a really good situation because again, Cardinals are winning right
- 4:50now.
- 4:51The Cardinals are going to continue to be a problem if they hit on their next draft as
- 4:56well as their free agency class.
- 4:59If they hit on both of those things, this team is going to be way more competitive than
- 5:05that one year when they had AJ Green and DHop and JJ Watten company.
- 5:11So all in all, congratulations to Budo Baker.
- 5:14You're probably going to be a Cardinal for life.
- 5:17Now let's get into a more spicier situation.
- 5:21I think everybody has been talking about since the news is broken.
- 5:24That is the Lenta Falcons have benched Kirk Cousins.
- 5:28Yes, that's right, Kirk Cove, big Kirk Cove.
- 5:30The person that they just gave $100 million to in free agency.
- 5:34Now before we get into all the business side of everything, let's just read the statement
- 5:39and then we'll get into all the business side and performance side and everything associated
- 5:44with that.
- 5:45So this is the official statement from head coach Raheem Morris.
- 5:47That's basically what he says.
- 5:49And I quote, after review, we have made the decision.
- 5:53Michael Pennings Jr. will be the Atlanta Falcons starting quarterback moving forward.
- 5:57This was a football decision.
- 5:58We are fully focused on preparing the team for Sunday's game against the New York Giants.
- 6:02And I quote very short sweet until the point quote, but let's just be real here.
- 6:09I think they realized that they reached for Kirk Cousins.
- 6:12And the reason why I say that is because since week 10, Kirk Cousins has only thrown for
- 6:19one touchdown in nine interceptions.
- 6:23That is 17 consecutive quarters without a passing touchdown.
- 6:28According to next gen stats.
- 6:30Shout out to them.
- 6:31That's not good.
- 6:32That's not good at all.
- 6:34They were thinking that when they were going to get Kirk Cousins, they were going to get
- 6:37the same Kirk Cousins that the Vikings had all those years.
- 6:41Well, newsflash here, folks.
- 6:43The reason why you're not getting that person is because for one, you have now a defensive
- 6:49minded head coach.
- 6:50And we've all seen that defensive minded coaches do not adequately address the offense as much
- 6:58as they do the defense.
- 6:59Kirk Cousins was in a situation with the Vikings where you had a two headed monster in both
- 7:05Jordan Addison and Justin Jefferson.
- 7:09You had TJ Hawkinson.
- 7:11You had Dalvin Cook for, you know, for those few years, you had a complete offense, not
- 7:15saying that the Falcons aren't.
- 7:18But when you compare the talent wise, the Vikings have more talent on their offense than they
- 7:24do with Falcons.
- 7:25That's just what it is.
- 7:26When we look at everything, I think the Falcons did not expect for them to be where they are
- 7:33right now, because right now the Buccaneers are eight and six.
- 7:36The Buccaneers right now are in the driver's seat to win this division.
- 7:41The Falcons are seven and seven, as I just said.
- 7:44Now when we look at the Falcons schedule, the remaining games that they have, they have
- 7:49to go against the Giants, commanders and Panthers.
- 7:53The Giants, that's a steamroll.
- 7:55But those last two games, those are two games you're going to have to fight.
- 7:59This is what I will say, though.
- 8:00This is an opportunity to see exactly what do they have in Michael Pinnick's, because
- 8:05Michael Pinnick's is sort of like bow nicks, a quarterback who has a lot of experience,
- 8:11has a high ceiling.
- 8:12It can definitely change the franchise.
- 8:15Okay.
- 8:16But I wonder what made Raheem Morris want to make this change now, because prior to this
- 8:23move, he was reassuring everyone and saying that Kirk Cousins was going to be the quarterback.
- 8:29So what exactly transpired from when he made his last statement to this statement?
- 8:36Because granted, I understand that yes, you guys did pay a lot of money to get Kirk Cousins.
- 8:42Yes he was paid to be the franchise quarterback.
- 8:45Yes he was supposed to be, you know, the bridge quarterback until Michael Pinnick's is basically
- 8:51ready to take things over.
- 8:53But at the same time, though, you're not about to make this move if you haven't thought
- 8:58about either releasing him, trading him, or just completely just getting rid of him all
- 9:05together.
- 9:06You just haven't.
- 9:07I really think about this.
- 9:09They just pay Kirk Cousins a hundred plus million dollars this off season, and now they're
- 9:15just going to get rid of him after just one season.
- 9:18Come on now.
- 9:19Not to mention they probably have thought about maybe he would have a trademark.
- 9:25Maybe that could help us out in the long run because again, as I've said before and I will
- 9:29continue to say this quarterback draft class is not good.
- 9:34It is not solid.
- 9:35And right now, there's not a lot of quarterbacks that you can flat out say, Oh, that can be
- 9:42my franchise quarterback.
- 9:44Oh, that's a quarterback that I can develop.
- 9:46Oh, that's a quarterback that in the right situation, we might be able to bring the best
- 9:51out of it because a lot of the quarterbacks realize, listen, my draft value right now
- 9:56is not where I want it to be.
- 9:58So let me just go back for another year, build it back up and let's try this thing again.
- 10:03Because as of right now, the only two quarterbacks that everyone is, you know, head over heels
- 10:09for is Cam Ward inch a door.
- 10:11That's it.
- 10:12Quinn Ewers.
- 10:13That's a question mark.
- 10:14And then the question mark is only going to get either bigger or smaller within the college
- 10:21playoffs.
- 10:22If he puts on a clinic in the playoffs and when at all, hey, you just put yourself in
- 10:30the first round category, sir.
- 10:31But if you don't, if you are a one in done, then that's it.
- 10:36Then you already know that guess what?
- 10:38Most likely you're going to be drafted either in the second, third, fourth or fifth round.
- 10:43That's just what it is.
- 10:44Just being honest with you guys and then not to mention there are multiple teams that need
- 10:49a quarterback.
- 10:5049ers.
- 10:51I would not be surprised if they would entertain going after Kirk Cousins because remember the
- 10:57Kyle Shanahan connection with Kirk Cousins because Kirk Cousins was in Washington when
- 11:03Kyle Shanahan was on the Washington staff.
- 11:05I'm just putting out connections here.
- 11:07That's just what I do.
- 11:08I'm just saying because right now with all of the leagues coming out, probably
- 11:14from Brock Purdy's camp, alluding that he wants to reset the market or he wants to get
- 11:19close to resetting the market is something that if I'm John Lynch, we're not one to
- 11:24entertain because you know why I've already done it for all the other players.
- 11:27I done done it for Nick Bosa.
- 11:29I done done it for Trent Williams.
- 11:31I done did it for the receivers.
- 11:33I done did it with this person.
- 11:34I done did it with that person.
- 11:35I done did it for everybody.
- 11:36I'm tired of resetting the market and I'm not holding up a Lombardi trophy.
- 11:41And if I'm being real here, if they feel like they can maybe they can maybe do one more,
- 11:48one more shot at this thing to win a Super Bowl, I think why not give Kirk Cousins a
- 11:54chance?
- 11:55You have a veteran quarterback.
- 11:57He probably would be fantastic in that situation.
- 12:00And most likely you probably wouldn't have to give up a whole lot just to get him.
- 12:05Now granted, if you want to try to negate taking on all that money, then most likely
- 12:11you will have to give a first round pick just to justify everything.
- 12:15Just so you don't have to take on, you know, the remaining part of this contract, but instead
- 12:20just take on probably his guarantees, which happens to not be a whole lot.
- 12:26Just saying shoot, even the Giants, if you feel like there is another position that you
- 12:31want to draft high on, or if you feel like you've already addressed, you know, your
- 12:36other positions and free agency and you feel like maybe you would prefer to get a veteran
- 12:41quarterback and a rookie quarterback, then okay, cool, make that move.
- 12:45But as of right now, there's probably a few teams that would be interested at going after
- 12:51someone like a Kirk Cousins.
- 12:52But who knows, but just know this, you heard it here first on who the football junkies
- 12:56podcast.
- 12:57Let's get into the Broncos and Chargers game tonight because I believe this is going to
- 13:02be a dynamic game.
- 13:03Okay, it's a divisional game.
- 13:05So you already know how feel about divisional games.
- 13:08So guess what?
- 13:09Let's just get into the meat and potatoes of the junkie nuggets.
- 13:12Okay, so the Broncos are one in five against teams who are above 500 and eight in O against
- 13:19teams that are 500 or worse.
- 13:22On top of this, all right, the Broncos have generated the second highest pressure rate
- 13:26at 38.6% while blitzing quarterbacks at the second highest rate at 38.4%.
- 13:34Since week 15, Lat-McConkie leads the Chargers with 63 receptions and 873 receiving yards.
- 13:42The Chargers have the 12th highest pressure rate at 38.1%, which is the single highest
- 13:50percentage since 2018, which was 38.3%.
- 13:55Now when we look at all of these junkie nuggets and whatnot, expect the Broncos to blitz heavy
- 14:03against Justin Herbert.
- 14:04Now I'm not saying they're going to do it, you know, all four downs, but there is a good
- 14:08chance that this Broncos defense is going to try to go after Justin Herbert.
- 14:13Nick Benito is starting to look like a top 20, maybe top 15, pass rusher.
- 14:19The defense for the Broncos has been going off recently.
- 14:24If I am a team that is in the playoffs already, okay, some point to Steve, there's possibly,
- 14:30that has to go up against the Broncos, that's a tough matchup.
- 14:33Okay, that's not a team that you can just look over because, you know, they don't have
- 14:37this person or that person or they don't have a star player in this position, that position.
- 14:42No, this team is going to be a problem for other high seated teams in the playoffs because
- 14:50this defense is playing with house money.
- 14:52That offense, they're playing with house money, okay?
- 14:55Bone Knicks has been doing his thing and I think people have not been talking about it
- 15:00as much, but Bone Knicks right now, to me, I feel like it's probably the rookie of the
- 15:06year, just saying.
- 15:07But when we shift things over to the Chargers though, I want to see exactly how are they
- 15:12going to try to attack this Broncos offense because we know that the Broncos pass rusher
- 15:18is going to try to go after Justin Herbert.
- 15:20And I want to see exactly how will they be able to adjust to the different types of blitzes
- 15:25and schemes that the Broncos are going to try to throw at them.
- 15:29As well as how are they going to be able to use Lama Conkey?
- 15:33How are they going to be able to use JK Dobbins?
- 15:35I want to see exactly what will the Chargers offense do when they have to go up against
- 15:42a divisional team like the Broncos who right now have been playing lights out.
- 15:48They've been holding their own with some of the best teams and granted, I understand that
- 15:54they've probably been looked over, but this isn't a team you can look over.
- 16:00They got everything right.
- 16:01If they hit on their next draft and on free agency, I guarantee you they will be able
- 16:07to compete against the Chiefs.
- 16:08I am willing to die on that hill today.
- 16:11Now my expectations for this game, it's probably not going to be super high scoreings, probably
- 16:15very low in the mid 20s.
- 16:18I sound like meteorologists right now, but I'm not trying to so forgive me about it,
- 16:22but most divisional games, they're not going to be super high scoreings going to be low.
- 16:26We already know that this game has major playoff implications.
- 16:30You already know this game is going to be good.
- 16:33Now let's focus on the Texans and Chiefs because this one will be more interesting.
- 16:38So since 2018, the Chiefs average five yards per play without Patrick Holmes compared to
- 16:456.3 yards per play with him on the field.
- 16:48The Texans have the third highest pressure rate in the league at 38.2% and one of the
- 16:54teams will have multiple defenders who are generating 50 or more pressures.
- 17:00The Chiefs have won 50 consecutive one possession games, including the playoffs and the Neil
- 17:05Hunter and Will Anderson are the only team made duo in the league with at least 10 sacks
- 17:12each.
- 17:14Now if it was me personally, if I'm Andy Reed, I probably would not start Patrick Holmes
- 17:19this game.
- 17:20I wouldn't.
- 17:21I would rest him, let him just, you know, rest his ankle, put Carson Wentz in, see what
- 17:27you have with Carson Wentz, see if he still hasn't.
- 17:30If he doesn't, okay, cool.
- 17:31You know what you have to do once the season is over with.
- 17:34But right now you need to rest Patrick Holmes because next week you have to go up against
- 17:38the Steelers and you know that is going to be a major game.
- 17:43You know that game has major implications to it when it comes to the seeding.
- 17:48Not saying that this one doesn't, but I feel like that one is a little bit more than this
- 17:53game right here.
- 17:55Now when we look at it for the Texans though, the Texans defense is a defense that not a
- 18:00lot of people are talking about.
- 18:02But that duo of Will Anderson and the Neil Hunter is like Shakikovic in the early 2000s,
- 18:08dominant.
- 18:09That's the best way to put it.
- 18:11And you know what, I truly believe the Neil Hunter and Will Anderson are going to go off
- 18:15in this game because you know why?
- 18:17When you have two tackles that always want to get off super early, yes, I'm talking to
- 18:22you Chiefs fans because you guys all know it.
- 18:25Jawon Taylor and that other tackle, they're getting off super early and no one is calling
- 18:30about it and no one is saying anything about it, but they need to say something about it.
- 18:35They're going to be chopped cheese.
- 18:37They're going to be Jamaican beef patties and cocoa bread to the Neil Hunter and Will
- 18:42Anderson because you know why that team has been able to generate a lot of pressure.
- 18:48They have been able to close the pocket and go after the quarterback.
- 18:53And I think this is the game where they should be able to do with the most.
- 18:57Now for the Chiefs, I think things are a little bit more complicated for them because you're
- 19:01still waiting for Hollywood to get back.
- 19:04You know, my homes just got injured, so you want to try to have him rested and prepared
- 19:08for for the remaining schedule.
- 19:11However, news just broke recently.
- 19:13I just checked my notifications because my phone's been going off for like the past 30
- 19:18seconds or whatever.
- 19:19I just checked it.
- 19:20Patrick Mahomes will be playing against the Texans.
- 19:23That has been confirmed by Andy Reed.
- 19:26Patrick Mahomes will be playing on one hand.
- 19:28I understand the move because they realize that right now the number one seed is still
- 19:33up in the air.
- 19:34The Buffalo Bills could still get it.
- 19:36Other teams could still sneak in and get the number one seed.
- 19:40So they want to make sure that they lock that number one seed up.
- 19:44Most likely they'll probably rest, you know, all their starters after after they face the
- 19:49Steelers.
- 19:50So and the best for last, the Steelers and the Ravens.
- 19:53And we have some breaking news.
- 19:55Okay, George Pickens and Justin Fields have been ruled out for the game and TJ Y is off
- 20:02injury designation.
- 20:04So let's just get into everything.
- 20:05So as of right now, we have seen that this offense, of course, is not as effective, is
- 20:13not as dominant or spectacular without George Pickens.
- 20:17And now that George Pickens is out, I don't know how things are going to go.
- 20:21But I don't know that this is that this is I wasn't expecting this.
- 20:27I'm going to be honest with you.
- 20:29This is my real reaction.
- 20:30Like I'm I am reacting in real time about this because I would have thought that George
- 20:36Pickens would have been able to play because from on the clips that I've seen, he's been,
- 20:40you know, running routes, he's been doing the exercises and things look pretty good.
- 20:45Now you could definitely tell that he does have a hamstring strain because you can see
- 20:51that one of his legs is just like it looks like it may be a little bit painful for him
- 20:55to do it.
- 20:56But dang.
- 20:58So then that means Kyle Island is now going to be the backup quarterback for Russell Wilson.
- 21:03Oh, man.
- 21:05This game.
- 21:06This this is a gun when I keep telling y'all that this was a gunling.
- 21:12This is exactly what I mean.
- 21:14This is a gauntlet, folks.
- 21:16But let's just get into these junkie notes, though.
- 21:19Ma'mar is one in four against the Steelers with a 66.2 passer ready.
- 21:24Gary Canary is second in both yards per contact, yards before contact, excuse me, at 478 in
- 21:31second in yards after contact at 993.
- 21:34He's only trailing behind Saquon Barkley.
- 21:37The Steelers defense has allowed 5.6 yards per carry, which is two more full yards per
- 21:44carry when Cam Hayward is off the field compared to when he is on the field, which is only
- 21:513.4 yards per carry.
- 21:53And then the last two starts, Russell Wilson has only averaged 143 passing yards per game
- 22:00without George Pickens.
- 22:01But in his first six starts with George Pickens, he averaged 271 passing yards per game.
- 22:10Now I'm going to go on a little bit of a tangent and a little bit of a rant, but I'm going
- 22:14to save that for later.
- 22:17I'm going to save that for last.
- 22:19But this is what I will say, though.
- 22:20This makes this game even more important because George Pickens is out.
- 22:28Most likely there may be a few other people that are going to be out.
- 22:31So that means Arthur Smith has to come up with a better game plan because what he came
- 22:37up with against the Eagles was not good enough.
- 22:40And granted, we saw some creativity and with that creativity, guess what happened?
- 22:45You got to first down and more.
- 22:47So you have to continue to try to do something different because right now what we are seeing
- 22:53is a play caller who is a little bit inconsistent.
- 22:58He'll have three or four drives where he's, you know, creating some some really good some
- 23:03really good plays and, you know, they're productive and putting points on the board and whatnot.
- 23:09And then next thing you know, he's reverting back to things that aren't as successful.
- 23:14And then we're just stabbing.
- 23:16That's not how you want things to go, especially with this game, because if we win this game,
- 23:22we lock up the division and one better way to lock up the division than against your
- 23:27division rivals home.
- 23:29That's the best way to do it.
- 23:31So you have to you have to get in your bag.
- 23:34I'm talking about not at the top part of the bag.
- 23:36You got to get in the bag bag.
- 23:38I'm talking about at the bottom where that little hole is in the bag.
- 23:42You got to go deep and you got to scoop and you have to come up with some better game
- 23:48plan because right now George Pickens isn't probably going to come back until either the
- 23:54chiefs game or the bangles game.
- 23:56So you have to prepare for that.
- 23:58Start using Mike Williams more.
- 24:00Start using Pathfire move more.
- 24:02Start using the people that you have currently in a more creative way.
- 24:07And I guarantee you you can still be a little bit more effective without George Pickens.
- 24:14You can do it.
- 24:15But the only way that you do this is if you are able to scheme things up better.
- 24:21The Eagles knew, oh, most likely they're going to run the ball without since George Pickens
- 24:27is not going to be playing.
- 24:28And so guess what they did?
- 24:29They loaded up the box.
- 24:30They loaded up that defensive line and say, guess what?
- 24:33Try it.
- 24:34I dare you.
- 24:35Try it.
- 24:36And that's exactly what happened.
- 24:38So we have to be better with this game.
- 24:42And then not to mention, then you got to prepare for the chiefs.
- 24:46Man, Omar, you might want to try to go and get OBJ just saying.
- 24:52But this is my little bit of a rant here because I've been arguing with some people
- 24:59on Twitter, you know, because, you know, Steward's fans can be a little bit delusional sometimes.
- 25:06And that's OK, you know, for those, for those don't know, yes, I do have a Twitter GM Kale.
- 25:11OK, GM Kale or at Sir Football Junk.
- 25:16OK, I have been arguing with a lot of people on Twitter because everyone has been saying
- 25:22that, you know, oh, Omar messed us up.
- 25:25He put us in a bad situation.
- 25:27We got to get rid of old Marwa.
- 25:29What?
- 25:30What?
- 25:31What?
- 25:32What?
- 25:33What?
- 25:34What?
- 25:35What?
- 25:36What?
- 25:37What?
- 25:38What?
- 25:39What?
- 25:40What's going on?
- 25:41What?
- 25:42Named the GM has whiffed on the position of need.
- 25:43You named the GM and most likely when you look at their track record, they have wiffed
- 25:45on something.
- 25:46This is Omar's first whiff.
- 25:48And it's OK.
- 25:49It happens.
- 25:50But we can't say that.
- 25:51Oh, it's the end of the world because we didn't go and we didn't get a receiver.
- 25:57It sure he tried to rewrite his wrongs by getting my Williams.
- 26:01OK, that's perfectly fine.
- 26:02I wouldn't be surprised if we tried to get OBJ after this game. I just wouldn't and that's okay
- 26:08But what you cannot do is just flat out just say that Omar Khan is a bad GM when literally he's cleaned up the books
- 26:15He's hit on his draft picks. He's hit on his free agency signings
- 26:20What more do you want if Omar Khan was any other teams is GM?
- 26:26They would be head over heels for this guy. They will be like, yo, this dude is great when it comes to Steelers fans
- 26:34No, we are now in the situation
- 26:37We were we can now have cap flexibility when we are no longer strapped
- 26:43You know when it comes to the cap space
- 26:45That's amazing. We can finally actually do something and why Omar Khan had to do that Omar Khan had to fix the offensive line
- 26:53He had to fix the quarterback position. He had to fix other positions. We are still a work in progress folks
- 27:00It's gonna take time before our Super Bowl window open. So until that time happens sit back
- 27:07Relax, enjoy the ride
- 27:09Look outside see take a few pictures do whatever okay and even for people that are talking about the draft for next year
- 27:16Everyone is saying that
- 27:18Receiver is our number one priority in the draft. No, it is not the receiver class is not that good
- 27:24Out of outside of Luther Burton the receiver from Arizona. I'm sorry. I cannot think of your name right now
- 27:30But it's not meant to be disrespectful. Isaiah Bond save you on Williams. I'm aka
- 27:37Ibuka if I'm not mistaken. I'm sorry if I'm butchering your name as well
- 27:41There's not as many, you know, why receivers that you can be like man. That's the first round receiver right there
- 27:48No, you might as well just want to go in free agency and get and get one because why there's gonna be multiple veteran receivers
- 27:55Who are looking to win? You're gonna have Kenan Allen. You're gonna have Stefan digs. Deontay Johnson de hop
- 28:03Mike Williams, you're gonna have a plethora of different receivers that you can go after hell
- 28:08You can even go for a big fish and try to get tea higgard from the bangles. I'm just saying
- 28:14I'm just saying here. Steve's fans. We have to be a little bit more patient
- 28:19I understand that at that time the move that they made was you know controversial
- 28:25I get all that but we have to
- 28:28Relax and I'm gonna end my rant here. I'm gonna end this episode here
