• 3:08
  Speaker 1: So a pretty decent day here.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Sometimes we're coming in here and we're polishing turds, not
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: that we're not polishing turds all the time, but there's
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: more more turds to polish on this day as opposed
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: to some other days. So our lead story is from Indianapolis,
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: where Indiana Jones has been tagged. You can't tag Indiana Jones.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Why would you tag Indiana Jones? Come on, well, the
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: Colts if you didn't hear, and maybe not, maybe you
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: missed it. Here is the deadline day to tag players,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: and a few players around the NFL got tagged. The
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: most interesting one we start with that, and that is
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, who was given what they say is a
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: rarely used, the rarely used transition tag. So he got
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: that tag.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: You're it. There you go. So the Colts are gonna.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Give Daniel Jones thirty seven point eight million. Thirty seven
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: point eight million, that's the buy now rate for Daniel Jones.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: There in instead of the franchise tag. Which would have
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: paid him like an extra six million dollars on top
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: of that. And so that opens up the possibility since
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: it was not the franchise tag instead it was the
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: transition tag. It's all just red tape, bull crap bureaucracy,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: but it means that there is there's a way could
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: could Daniel Jones. Could Daniel Jones leave the Colt Yes,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: and the compensation would go to Indianapolis. So Jones can
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: can sign an offer sheet with another team next week
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: March eleventh. I know you're excited about that. Mark that
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: on your on your calendar app on your phone, March eleventh.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: There the Colts have will have five days, five days
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: to match or allow him to wild all go off
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: into the wild blue yonder and get out of.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Here Daniel Jones.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Now, as Vim's only used to say, it is interesting
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: to note that Indy picking up the tag on Daniel
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Jones means they decided not not to give any kind
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: of tag. They could not do two, so they didn't
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: give one to Alec Pierce, the wide receiver who they're
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: trying to sign it to a contract. So that is
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: a good jumping out point. Let us discuss the question
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: for the class, and you're part of the class. Thumbs
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: up or thumbs down on the Colts, picking Daniel Jones over.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Alec Pierce, that was the choice.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: So I've got Spaghettio's antibiotics and one eight hundred flowers,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: and we will combine all of these things together. We're
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: gonna make some Jimmy chungis is what we're gonna make.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Jimmy chumk all right, So ah, the thumbs up thumbs down,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: I'm going thumbs down, and I'll go another thumbs down
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: and then if I can get more thumbs down, I'll
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: get more. But Capitol d down, down, down, down, down, down,
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: down down down. To me, this is football malpractice. It
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: is you should not be doing this.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: What are you thinking? Seriously, what do you think? Indy?
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Now I understand the backstory. We talked about it.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: Indy traded a gaggle of draft picks. They got saucy,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: they got sauce gardener from the Jets, and so they
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: boxed themselves into this awkward situation where they were stuck
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: between the devil and the deep blue sea. And so
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: there's this financial broom closet and they felt they were
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: forced to double.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Down on Daniel Jones, but they were not.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: So it's a total panic move when you think about
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: you look at the resume of Daniel Jones and what
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: even when he did in Indy, and there's a lot
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: of people that are selectively telling you that Daniel Jones
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: was amazing for the Colts. And so again they were
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: right there, devil on one side, the deep blue sea
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: on the other, and they chose to toss out the anchor.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: No, you're not supposed to do that. Now, you're not
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: gonna hear this.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: A lot of players in the daytime, guys, they're suck ups,
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: most of them. So the reality is this, Daniel Jones
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: was on a proven deal in twenty twenty five.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: He didn't prove it. He didn't and so.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Why are you rewarding him with this this thirty seven
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: point eight million dollar contract. It's for Gayzy, is what
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: it is, right, And so what exactly did Daniel Jones
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: prove last year?
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's go through it.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: So he proved that as the season went on, he
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: got exposed right that for a while it was a
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: smoke and mirror show. And then eventually Daniel Jones turned
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: into the same stumble bum that we saw with the Giants.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: It was the same stumblebum. You know, he's fine for
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: a few games there at the beginning of the year,
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: and then the wheels on the bus came off. The
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: wheels on the bus, they didn't go round and round,
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: they came off.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: They did.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: They did.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: And so Jones, you think about his.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Wide angle wins in his career, look at his Pro
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: Football Reference played thirty two career wins in the NFL
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: as a starting quarterback seven years, thirty two wins and
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: then snap, crackle pop as in any and he wasn't
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: playing well before that, and then four or five games
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: that were el stinko and then he got hurt and
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: you're gonna reward him with thirty seven point eight million
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: because you're afraid he's gonna leave. You should drive him
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: to the airport and you're afraid he's gonna leave. That's insanity.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: It's absolute insanity, is what it is. And he's not
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: head and shoulder this is the main issue. Like if
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: there was no one else who was as good as
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: Daniel Jones would be.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Like, Okay, I get it.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: He's not head and shoulders above everyone. He's at the
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: same level you look at who's available, the contemporaries on
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: the market, the quarterback market. If he did the cola challenge,
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: let's do the cold of chan. Do the cold chan.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: You got to a tongue of Byloa, Kyler Murray, the
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: Little Fella, the Munchkin, and Daniel Jones. Those are the
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: three quarterbacks side by side. I call them the spaghetti
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: O's quarterbacks. And then why do I call them the
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: Spaghettios because they're overwhelmed, overmatched and overpowered on a regular basis,
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: thought of O's a lot of o's there, different cans,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: same crappy product, same flat soda. So that's the call
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: to challenge there, and the culture like, no, no, we
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: have to have our flat soda. We don't want someone
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: else's flat soda. We love our flat soda. Daniel Jones, baby,
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: oh my god. Meanwhile, wide receiver Alec Pearce who broke
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: out all year, unlike Daniel Jones, he did it all year.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: He didn't do it for five games or eight games
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: and then disappear. He did it the entire year.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: He was consistent, he was reliable to put a big
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: he was legit in his breakout year. And so the Colts.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: They could have punted on Daniel Jones. No lost there,
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: he's not that good and locked up Piers now they're trying,
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: they say, to lock him up, good luck on that,
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: more than that in a minute.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: And so instead they say, no, no, we really want
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: fool's gold. That's what we want. So the Colts they
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: picked the fools goal. Congratulations all right. Now.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Meanwhile, staying with the theme of the hour, as I
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: have just treated Daniel Jones like a pinata, there are
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: reports bouncing around the echo chamber here that say they wait,
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: wait a minute, Wait a minute, Minnesota, they don't have
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: a quarterback.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: They need a quarterback. What are you gonna do?
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: And that the Purple people eaters might make Eke and
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Rozo Minnesota vomit in his mouth. And they are said
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: to be exploring the possibility of going after Vanilla vic
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: That could be the move right there, Vanilla Bick.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: So question, how believable?
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: How believable are the whispers that the Vikings are going
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: to make some kind of offer to try to pry
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: away Daniel Jones. Not that they would have to pry
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: away that much, because I'm assuming the Colts they'll come
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: to their senses here and say, well, we're.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Not going to give them that contract whatever the Vikings offer.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: So I give this the very premise that the whispers
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: are true, that the Vikings are going to make this
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: run at Daniel Jones. I give this side And the
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: reason that I give this side eye is we know
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: that Minnesota has a blank square on the quarterback bingo card.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: They don't have any right.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: They've tried hope, they've tried cosmic intervention, they tried JJ McCarthy,
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: which apparently he's now outside the bubble of trust. So
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: he's out. The bubbles burst and that's it. Pop goes
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: the babble. So what do you do?
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: What do you do?
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: Well, you go shopping on the clearance aisle. And this
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: is the NFL's version of the rummaging through the dented
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: can aisle at High V. You're going through all the
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: dented cans there and all that stuff. But Minnesota they
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: have the pick.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Of the litter.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: That's the good news. I'll be Benny Bright, so that
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: you have to pick of the litter. Congratulations there. Of course,
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: the picket litter is all the cracked, damaged and warped
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: quarterbacks as we have laid out here, So you've got
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: to pick a litter. You're gonna need antibiotics because you're
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: gonna get cat scratch fever is what you're gonna get.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: And as for Daniel Jones, they would have to pay them,
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: if my math is correct, I'm using Malard math, about
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: forty million a year on average, a little bit more
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: than the Vikings thing, paying about forty million dollars a year,
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: which would be like paying for a thick steak at
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Ruth Chris Steakhouse and you're paying that price and you're
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: getting a microwaved hot pocket. No, I'm not here to
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: knock the hot pocket. I've had them. Some of them
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: are good, some of them are horrific. But it's not
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: the same as a nice steak.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: But wait, there's more.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: Oh, we're not done. No, you'd also to get Daniel Jones.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: You'd have to give the Colts compensation, a lot of compensation.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: That would be And again, we just laid out all
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: these guys who are about to say they've all got
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: warts and moles and all that stuff.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: That would be shrewd dumbness. If you decide on Daniel Jones.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: Now, if you do the malor math on that the
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: malarads that Danny Dimes ends up in the Twin Cities.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: I'll put that at plus five hundred, which, if you're
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: not good with math, that implies, based on malor math
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: a about a fifteen percent chance, about a fifteen percent chance,
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: which is higher than it should be, higher than it
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: should be. It should be because the Golden rule is
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: in play. And the only reason I'm going around fifteen
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: percent is the Golden rule, which is it's not what
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: you know, it's who you know. And it is true
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: that Kevin O'Connell seems to be calling the shots there
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: in Minnesota. He had Jones in the building for a
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: cup of coffee and they hung out together for half
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: a season, so there's a common bond. And to that,
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: I say, whoopedie, damn do That's what I say. I'm
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: leaving a fifteen percent chance on that. Now, last word here,
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: let's circle back. We talked about Alec Pierce, the wide
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: receiver who was hanging out there in Indian and the
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Colts decided that they wanted to tag Daniel Jones and said.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: Well, you know what, we want to keep you up.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: But yeah, okay, so we are told the Colts are
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: again very motivated to get Pierce and his contract done
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: as we're about a week away now from the start
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: of NFL free agency. So the question who's going to
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: be bidding, Who's going to be bidding for the.
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: Pending free agent wide receiver late of Indianapolis here, Alec Pierce.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: So this is one of those stories. I call it
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: a one eight hundred flowers story. Now why do I
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: call it that, because this is going to look like
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: The Bachelor NFL edition of The Bachelor. Imagine if you will,
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: Alec Pearce standing there in a nice tuxedo and there's
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: a bunch of teams, now not every team, but a
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: bunch of teams that are lined up, and they all
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: went and got their roses and they said, hey, Alex,
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: and will you accept this franchise tag Rose And then
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: he'll say yes or no and all that.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: And he would be crazy at this point not to
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: test the market.
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: So all you have to do is wait a week
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: and then you are able to take bids on it
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: from it. Of course, there's a legal tampering Piers. He's
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: gonna already know they probably are. Now his agent knows
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: who wants to pay him or not, but he did
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: have the breakout season as we talked about Alex Pierce
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: last year in Indianapolis, and you gotta think his agent's
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: phone and the text messages and all that will be
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: blown up like a mom and pop pizza shop on
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl Sunday, like there'll be a lot going on.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: And it really comes down it, does he want to
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: stay in Indianapolis? Okay?
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: Fine, you could stay there, or you could do some
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: dumpster diving with the Raiders or the Titans. Couple of
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: crappy teams like that that have money, bad teams with
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: cap space and no shame. You could say, what about
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: the Patriots They don't have any receivers there any good
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: and they got to the Super Bowl.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: Or the Buffalo Bills they don't have.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: Any receivers there any good and they got Josh Allen
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: that they need help there. Meanwhile, Pearce is sitting there
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: like a guy at auction. Do I hear thirty thirty million,
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: thirty million? Do I thirty one million, thirty one million
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: in the back, thirty one million man the brown hatton
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: back all right? Thirty two million, thirty two million, go once,
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: going twice, going three times? So thirty two million, someone's
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: gonna overpay. They always do, they always do.
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 16:58

• 25:22
  Speaker 2: and has able to been able to bamboozle the NFL
• 25:27

  Speaker 2: think that would be great. Ferg Dog writes and says,
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: Mick Cronin's haters this a non sequitor. College Basketball says
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Mick Cronin's haters are awfully quiet after another big UCLA
• 27:54

• 27:59
  Speaker 2: his song of as Sharman, let Mick cook, sign Fergdark, Yeah,
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: let him cook. So West, being of cooking, Matthew Stafford
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: went out and cooked. It looked like he was done
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: in the NFL. Then he put up an MVP season
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: for the La Rams, getting it done there and the
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: Rams would have, could have should have gone to the
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl. The NFL helped Seattle out there that phantom
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: two point conversion in Week sixteen, which really was the
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: secret sauce for the Seahawks going on to win the
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl, getting home field advantage, getting to buy all that,
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: all because of that bogus play, All because of that
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: bogus play. Well, I bring this up because Matthew Stafford
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: is heading into his final season under contract, and the
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: Rams are attempting.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: To not manipulate, but.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: Move some numbers around. Move some numbers, and the salary
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: cap is not real. I'm a salarycap truther. So you
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: got to move some stuff around, and you move a
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: decimal point over here, you put an extra number there.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: Stafford's thirty eight. We can return to the Rams said,
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: he's going to come back and play. Sean mcvayh commenting,
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: said that the Rams have had quote great dialogue with
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford and that he quote feels confident about working
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: out a new contract. Hello, do you wonderful?
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: There you go? And I don't see how that that goes.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: There's really not a lot to do.
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: It's like we're gonna be a one year deal with
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: some fake years for the salary cap, and then he'll
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: get paid a lot of money and he'll play one
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: more year and then that's it.
• 29:35
