  Speaker 3: I gotta be honest, I haven't really given it much
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: in my reasoning.

• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Fred Tamara's not here. I don't know where she is.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Evan is sick, Alex I don't know, vacation vacation, so
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: it's the three of us and Matt.
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: So three amigoes.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but we'll ride three bulls, as someone dubbed us.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: I wanted to take some shots at Alex. Yesterday it
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: was National Women and Girls in Sports Day and she's
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: tweeting about it and I'm like, oh, so joy day.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: So you just don't have to come to work. But
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: I wanted to make sure that like wasn't something serious.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: You know, like every time you do something like that,
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: it's like, you know, someone's dressed up. Oh you know,
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: did you get the job? Oh no, I just came
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: from a funeral.
• 2:49
  Speaker 6: Well that was That was chrispher a couple of weeks ago.
• 2:51
  Speaker 6: He came in the office all dressed up and like, oh, Chris,
• 2:53
  Speaker 6: you look nice. What do you do when I gotta
• 2:54
  Speaker 6: go awake?
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Sorry?
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: So I figured before I know, to comment do appolism
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: and make myself look sillier than even normal.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: So as of late, as late as this morning, I
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: was hearing names reportedly being signed to the Patriots. Do
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: you have the latest list? You want to go over that?
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Just to kind of update with where we are, and
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: please note if something's not offend.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: I missed one this morning. I need to write this.
• 3:23
  Speaker 6: Well, I don't know if anything is technically official yet, right,
• 3:27
  Speaker 6: but the but yeah, yesterday we heard about Alonza high Smith,
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: who was with Elliott Wolf Darren green Bay had a
• 3:33
  Speaker 6: great career I had in the NFL. Scott Peters offensive
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: line coach, was assistant offensive line coach under Bill Callahan
• 3:42
  Speaker 6: in in Cleveland, and I think we got probably a
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: new favorite in the clubhouse. If there was like a
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: coaching fight off, like I think I'd probably go with
• 3:50
  Speaker 6: the Scott Peters guy.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: He played.
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: Oh, he looks, he looks tough, he looks mmmm, you know,
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: he said, we know what I'm here. Continue to work
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: down the list.
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: So Brian Belichick this morning was was you know reported
• 4:04
  Speaker 6: that he will be back. I know Mike Reese speculated
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: that that Brian would be back, along with with Mike
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: Pellegren or cornerbacks. I haven't seen an official or nothing official,
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: but no no direct report on Pelgrene, no other than
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: than Mike Reese's mentioning him.
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: And then I guess just I think those are the
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: main ones. I don't know if I miss guy, I
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: mean T. C. McCartney. Oh yeah, so he's quarterback. He's
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: going to be the quarterbacks coach. He was the tight
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: ends coach for the Browns.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: So I think that kind of we talked about McAdoo
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: on Tuesday.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: That can do.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: But yeah, most of this okay. So the one thing
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: that I think may have been a little bit different yesterdays,
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: not anybody knew, but the reports are now indicating definitively
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: what we've been talking about with two or three weeks now.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Elliott Wolfe has seemingly rested at the top of the
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: personnel chain. So if you want to call him general manager,
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: and I know that they're very big, somehow they haven't
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: had a general manager. Elliot wolf is your general manager.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: According to Ian Rappaport. And if you look at all
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: the moves Fred, the vast majority of these coaching hires
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: have at least touched Elliott wolf in Green Bay, in
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: some cases in Cleveland or a Wolf high Smith.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: And Alex Van pell.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: Jerry Montgomery, you know obviously the guys from Cleveland with
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: Van Pelton, McCartney. So these guys were, you know, when
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: Wolfe was in Cleveland. Some of them were with Wolf
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: in Green Bay. That seems to be the direction that
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: they're going.
• 5:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I mean, I I like Count high Smith.
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: I thought was you know, an interesting addition just to
• 5:46
  Speaker 6: get you know, continue to round out the the front
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: office staff and to bring some new blood into there,
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: you know, I mean, just sticking with the defense. I mean,
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: I like what I like the continuity that they're bringing back,
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: and I like that they're bringing back Brian Belichick Pelgreno
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: because I think, you know, I didn't want a ton
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: of turnover on the defensive side of the ball.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: When you look at last year and you know, let's
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: face it, the talent, you know, especially once Gonzales you know,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: was out and Jonathan Jones battling with injuries. You know,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: for some of the season, I think they did a
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: pretty good job mixing and matching and scheming it up
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: and competing in games.
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: It wasn't a disaster you know back there, No, no,
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: I mean, and they you know, they maintained their veteran
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: veterans in the front you know, and it's just guys
• 6:31
  Speaker 6: like Godshaw, Bentley guy, I mean, wise, those guys aren't
• 6:34
  Speaker 6: going to be you know, they were never going to
• 6:36
  Speaker 6: be full the tents and go home kind of guys.
• 6:38
  Speaker 6: But you know, just in looking at you know, free
• 6:40
  Speaker 6: agency and all that that stuff, it's you know, it's
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: such a hard thing. And I never heard Felgrimaz yesterday
• 6:45
  Speaker 6: talking a little bit about twenty twenty one, where you know,
• 6:47
  Speaker 6: it's hard. You got a bunch of money to spend,
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: but there aren't really those superstar kind of players that
• 6:51
  Speaker 6: you ideally would want to spend that money on.
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: They had to kind of go with, you know, John
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: neu Smith's of the world.
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: But you know, just in terms of looking at, you know,
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: some of the options at edge and on defense, Like
• 7:02
  Speaker 6: I know, it's not a big need and everybody wants
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: to talk offense and quarterback and rightly so, but I
• 7:06
  Speaker 6: think that that's maybe an area in free agency that
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: they could maybe try to make a little bit of
• 7:11
  Speaker 6: a splash and you know, just take some of the
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: weight off of Judean, you know, not make him such
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: this vital piece that he you know, he's our only
• 7:18
  Speaker 6: guy who can can really win off the edge one
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: on one, and let's face it, he's you know, thirty one,
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: thirty two. I mean, those days are limited, so well,
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: it's you.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Know, it's interesting. It's like almost a philosophy. You could
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: go at focus on building the offense for the future
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: and building the defense for now.
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: Yeah you know what I mean, Yeah, I think so.
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: And you know, we said it on the show last week.
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: All the defensive line basically everybody's up. And I mean
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: I'm saying right now, Christian Barmore would be my number
• 7:43
  Speaker 6: one priority. No disrespect on when you dugger ouch any
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: of those guys, but I would I would make him
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: the priority this offseason to lock him up and you know,
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: at least get one piece beyond this season.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: But uh, you know, nobody really wants to talk about
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: the defense or free agency. Everybody wants to talk about
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: the offense.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, that's the big escaping hole. But you
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: do have to, you know, you can't let what you know,
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: the defense slide. You have to at least be as
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: good as you were last year, if not better.
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, yeah, And I don't know, I just
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: I'm just kind of torn.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Uh, you have to be better.
• 8:15
  Speaker 6: I'm kind of torn on the offensive side of the
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: ball because on one hand, you know, we live through
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: twenty twenty two here with Matt Patrician and Joe Judge.
• 8:22
  Speaker 6: It's like, I don't I don't know how I could
• 8:24
  Speaker 6: look at any staff the same way I look at
• 8:27
  Speaker 6: that staff where just it was, you know, I get
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: everybody's kind of underwhelmed by cast offs, guys who you know,
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: haven't really done it yet. And I think that's what
• 8:37
  Speaker 6: we're kind of trying to work through right now. And
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: it's you know, there's a lot of connections though. That's
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: like the thing that I just you know, there there
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: are some connections to Shanahan, there's connections to I don't
• 8:46
  Speaker 6: know what the West Coast offense. There's a lot of
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: connections to a lot of different things. I don't know
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: what it's exactly going.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Unless you're like I don't know, I guess I unless
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: you're pulling guys, you know, from a lower position and
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: giving the you know, you know, a higher ranking position
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: here guys that are available or cast offs. They're guys
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: who you know are available, you know. So I think
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: they've done a pretty good job identifying guys who look
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: like they might be able to work together, you know,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: and get on the same page.
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: And you know, so they got three guys that were
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: on the same staff, yeah, Van Pell, Peters and McCartney.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: And as well as having experience in various places. You know,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: it's not like they were only at one place and
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: that's it, you know. So I like them, you know,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: varied experience, bringing it all together, yet also knowing each other.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: You know, you need that, especially with you're just starting
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: from scratch really with a new head coach. You just
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: want everybody to be on the same page, at least
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: for this season.
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: I like the way you guys talk about it because
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: I think it's so easy to say, well.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: What do they do?
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: Like what you know, what, what does that guy do?
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: What has he done? And let's face it, I can't
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: tell you the kind of job that Will Long did
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: last year. He was the Patriots tight ends coach. I
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: can't tell you that. You're trying to tell me that
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: these people that are pining about Scott Peters know how
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: the assistant offensive line coach in Cleveland did last year, right, Like,
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: So anybody's telling you this is a great hire, or
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: anybody's telling you this is a terrible hire.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: Is they don't know full of it? You really don't know.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: And other than like foot like inside football, people. That's
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about media people
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: like us.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and it don't we don't know.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: And all we generally do is we look at their
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: position group and you know where they you know.
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: And I think David Nijoku is an example of a
• 10:40
  Speaker 6: guy with a really good year last year.
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: So that's a little bit of a you know, a positive.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: That's you know, that's how Freddy Cochy after the coaching
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: staff way back in the day.
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and uh, And I would just say, you know,
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: I think there's a lot to like to go about
• 10:50
  Speaker 6: a guy named like Scott Peters who I mean, I
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: think everybody is universally enamored of the job Bill Callahan
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: does with offensive lines. And you know, when you are
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: starting over on the offensive line and it's it's all right, well,
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: this guy is trained under the best. I mean, I
• 11:02
  Speaker 6: think I definitely have a lot of respect for what
• 11:05
  Speaker 6: Cleveland's offensive line did. So you know, it's just one
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: hand you kind of stomp and kick that you're underwhelmed.
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: But at the same time, it's like, this is what happens.
• 11:12
  Speaker 6: Like when your team gets blown up, somebody's gonna come,
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: They're gonna bring guys that they know, and I mean,
• 11:17
  Speaker 6: how many times had the Patriots done that?
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: Oh, that's Patriots West. I mean, that's what happened to us.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Right now we're Green Bay here, they take people with them.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: It's the same thing. There's it's just comfort level. At
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: the same time, Elliott Wolf's not going to be bringing
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: people that he knows of that stunk, because now it's
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: kind of is if this works out, Elliott Wolf is
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: going to be like, we're gonna be giving him his flowers. Yeah,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: if you.
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: Will, well he could be the young young maam who
• 11:45
  Speaker 6: is you know really, so there's a lot at steak
• 11:47
  Speaker 6: for him to get this right. Do you think there's
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: a chance that there's some kind of promotion or something
• 11:53
  Speaker 6: after the draft, Like is this all kind of in place,
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: and that after the draft then we're going to kind
• 11:57
  Speaker 6: of announce the power structure of the personnel department.
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: It may even be before that, but yeah, I do
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: think there'll be a change. The offensive line thing is
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: the thing I like the best out of all of
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: the things that they've done, and one of the reasons
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: is something Fred said last week, you know about looking
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: for the offensive line coach my fear was they weren't,
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: and Fred was right, and I feel the best about that,
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: not you being right, he'll kick your but the like,
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: I just felt like all the guys that were under contract,
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: Like I do not like the other stuff on defense,
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: and we'll get to that later, but I just felt
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: like everybody that was under contract was going to be
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: welcomed back and didn't matter. You know that the offensive
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: line had no answers last year. Okay, so I like
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: the f This is no disrespect to Adrian klem but
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: I just I do feel like this benefit in getting
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: someone from the outside. And the reason why I like
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: this higher is what you guys just talked about. Worked
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: under Bill Callahan, who was widely regarded as the best
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: in the business. Okay, so you get a guy that
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: tutored under him and lost all of their offensive linemen,
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: which is one of the real strengths of that Cleveland team.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: They all got hurt and it didn't matter. They continue
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: to play pretty well. Now, was it the same, No,
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: there's a drop off when you have backups in there,
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: but it wasn't what the Patriots went through with their starters.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: So I have some confidence. Like Fred was right in
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: saying that they needed an offensive line coach. I like
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: this guy's profile better than Andy Dickerson's, who supposedly they
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: were interested. And then we know Andy from he spent
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: some time here way back in the day. This guy,
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: I like the fact that he worked under Callahan. So
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: that's the thing I like the best out of this.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: They needed to find some new blood.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: And when it comes to the modern athlete and wanting
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: to know why, these guys are going to be able
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: to give them wise. They've got experience, you know, where
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: they're going to be able to say, here's why I'm
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: teaching you it this way, Here's why I want you
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: to do this, you know, and they'll be able to
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: back up with experience, Like you know, I had this
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: guy and he did it and it worked.
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: I do have one minor concern on Peters because you
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: know me, I can't just be happy tube jacked. I
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: can't just be happy. No, Why did in Cleveland keep him?
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: That's that's my you know, Like they lost their line coach.
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: They had the assistant there. Why didn't they promote him?
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: Was you know, well, listen, I don't I think maybe
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: we would, maybe they maybe they wanted to keep I
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: know it will convinced him to come here.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: I think there must be a certain amount of infighting
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: over in Cleveland because you know, with Deshaun Watson and
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: all that stuff, there must be varying opinions about what
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: we need to do. And you know, some guy's probably
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: won and some guy's probably lost.
• 14:45
  Speaker 6: But I mean, I think, you know, to Paul's point
• 14:47
  Speaker 6: that the pedigree thing when you when you are rebuilding
• 14:49
  Speaker 6: like this, like these are the kind of guys that
• 14:50
  Speaker 6: you want to give opportunities to. And you know, we
• 14:53
  Speaker 6: talked a lot about how you know, maybe Bill had
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: a soft spot for giving guy a chance. But you know,
• 14:59
  Speaker 6: I just I think about Alex van Pelt. He's been
• 15:03
  Speaker 6: waiting for this opportunity, right, like, I mean, this is
• 15:05
  Speaker 6: like like this is it's it's evaded him. He's got
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: a humongous chance, you know, opportunity guy in his forties.
• 15:11
  Speaker 6: But even a younger guy like Scott Peters. You know,
• 15:13
  Speaker 6: this is if you'd have to be so worried about
• 15:16
  Speaker 6: I mean, look, it's either gonna work or it's not
• 15:18
  Speaker 6: gonna work, and they'll be out, you know, so that
• 15:21
  Speaker 6: I like, at least how they're kind of beating the
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: bushes trying, you know, like we don't have Dante Scarneki
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: and you need to find another guy who's going to
• 15:28
  Speaker 6: come in here.
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: I said, I think it's critical.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: I really think it's critical because I do believe that
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: if you have a really well coached offensive line, you
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: don't necessarily need everybody to be first round draft picks.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: If they're cohesive, if they communicate, well, they're on the
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: same page, their technique is well coached, you don't have
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: to everybody doesn't have to be Tyrone Smith.
• 15:53
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, but they just I mean, I would
• 15:55
  Speaker 6: say they they they have such a need right now
• 15:57
  Speaker 6: that it's like, I just hope they're gonna give Scott
• 16:00
  Speaker 6: Peter's a bunch of things to work with.
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: It's like they felt last year when we got out there,
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: It's like they're already shorthanded.
• 16:05
  Speaker 6: And then you know, Trent Brown was in and out
• 16:07
  Speaker 6: cold strange got hurt like three minutes into putting pads on.
• 16:10
  Speaker 6: You know, you instantly kind of felt that that's the
• 16:12
  Speaker 6: biggest thing is just how do you build up so
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: that you at least have competition, even if, like you said,
• 16:17
  Speaker 6: you don't have those super talented guys. But again, like
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: you know, quarterbacks, coach, offensive line, like, these are the
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: top positions in the draft. These guys, you know, are
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: gonna get probably at least some kind of say in
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: who they like or what kind of guys they.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: Want to work with, because those are the positions that
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: they need to The.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: Wolf of Washington Street? Is that hard at work?
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: What was Washington Street?
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: I think that's the name for Route one. Oh, we
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: work on Washington Street. You didn't know that that's the
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: name of the street that we work right over.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: I thought it was Route one.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: No, it's it's wasn't a Patriot place, it's what?
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: No, it is Washington Street. Yeah, so's a long way
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: to Grandma's house.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: But I thought it was pretty direct. I got I
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: got his.
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: You go left on Washington Street?
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: What route want?
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: Washington Street?
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Well, that's every root really has a name. This is
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: Washington Street, all right?
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: Something every day I live.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: You live in Sharon.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: I don't even know Providence Highway to something like that.
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: You're really going to confuse everything.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: That figure you live in Sharon, which is like it
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: abuts I never like, look at it, it abuts the highway.
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: Look at.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: He So we did get Mike, and I did get
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: a chance, very briefly to meet the new beasts, Alex
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: van Pelt and Jerry Springer.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: You guys sat down with him, Yeah, I did not
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: sit down with them. Well you were in the room.
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: We're in the room. Yeah, we listened.
• 17:35
  Speaker 6: But uh, but you know, to to your point, I
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: think a lot of you know, both the guys though,
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: you know what's most important people relationships. I mean, and look,
• 17:44
  Speaker 6: it's coach speak. I think every you know, everybody's gonna
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: say some version of that. But definitely Springer seems young.
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: Mike, He's got that energy, Mike, Mike.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: It's like.
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: But another guy who you know was in a assistant
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: and you know we can is it is that.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Like a requirement for Special Teams coach to be like
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: out of your head.
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: That's what I came out of it, And I think
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: it was kind of exactly what I was trying to
• 18:08
  Speaker 6: sell to stay to Paul. I'm like, you know, it's
• 18:10
  Speaker 6: it's the same kind of vibe that you used to get.
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: I mean, I wasn't here for what the old guy
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: Billy what's his name, who was the old Special Teams
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: quarter scottio I don't know what he was like, but
• 18:19
  Speaker 6: just from my experience with Cam a Cord, who's just
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: like always seems.
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: Like he's totally caffeinated. And yeah, we're gonna go out
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: there and we got to.
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: You know, talk about Scott O'Brien. We're not like, no, no, no,
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: neither one of them.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: It the new Remember that the old Cowboys went Joe
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: a visa viso Afazzano. Yeah, I mean he was wild
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: on the sideline. I love fred special type.
• 18:39
  Speaker 6: You gotta you gotta bring the energy and uh but
• 18:42
  Speaker 6: no they you know, they're both guys, like I said,
• 18:44
  Speaker 6: getting a chance, and I mean it's an opportunity for
• 18:46
  Speaker 6: them to to try to do it. I'm I'm just
• 18:48
  Speaker 6: interested in you know, it's I kind of dug into
• 18:50
  Speaker 6: these guys. I think did a show send you that
• 18:52
  Speaker 6: TC McCartney story. That's TC McCartney, the quarterbacks coach. Got
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: just an absolute crazy story. I won't go into it now,
• 18:58
  Speaker 6: but that is wild, but you can.
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: Google it it just like it's a pretty common story.
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: Paul knew it already I started.
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: No one sent it to me because you know, I
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: work downstairs now, so I'm on the pay no mind list.
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: But that was huge in the early early nineties when
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: Colorado was at the top of the college football chain.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: They won a national title around that time. That was
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: a huge story with those VALANESSI was a big deal.
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's so, that's uh, that's his dad. He's crazy.
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: But you know, just getting to know these guys and uh,
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: you know, we'll see we'll see a lot of young
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: guys and and and this is it.
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: So you know, he he spent some time though, TC
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: did under Shanahan, So you know, it's just there's a
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: lot of little roots going to different kind of West
• 19:42
  Speaker 6: Coast offense.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: And I like that Mayo is not afraid to hire
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: people who have a lot more experience than he does.
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: Now that's not saying much because he doesn't have a
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: lot of coaching experience, but you care these people.
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: Well, but I got the Wolf of Washington Street doing
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: all this time.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: But I'm sure that he has input, right, you know,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: and I'm not. It's you know, to be a leader,
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: you need to hire people who will tell you what
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: to do. You know, you want to hire people who
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: are smarter than you in a lot of areas. You know,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: if you're afraid to do that, then you can't lead.
• 20:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, I mean it's one of the biggest
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: questions we had going into this season was, you know,
• 20:22
  Speaker 6: what kind of input is jirob Mayo going to have
• 20:24
  Speaker 6: on offense?
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: What kind of visions does he have? Is he going
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: to want to just kind of set it and forget it?
• 20:28
  Speaker 6: And you know, there was a time I think when
• 20:29
  Speaker 6: we thought he would just kind of be like Josh,
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: you know, hire Josh McDaniels and be like, go do
• 20:34
  Speaker 6: something with it.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: I it's a great question.
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: I mean, I think it's one of the ones that
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: needs to probably be asked to draw whenever he's up again.
• 20:40
  Speaker 6: It's just, you know, what is your involvement with the offense, Like,
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: you know, what's kind of your you know, your vision,
• 20:44
  Speaker 6: what's your mandate to those coaches?
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: At the very least my points?
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, score points.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: I don't care how you doing. Score point period.
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: That's all I care about. But you know what, what
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: what's he looking for?
• 20:54
  Speaker 6: What kind of you know, are there players already on
• 20:56
  Speaker 6: the roster that he kind of gravitates towards or away from? Maybe,
• 21:00
  Speaker 6: But I know that there's been a lot of discussion
• 21:01
  Speaker 6: just about Cleveland. Their run game was something that Alex
• 21:05
  Speaker 6: Van Pelt brought up in the interview. So you know,
• 21:07
  Speaker 6: Paul brought it up right after the interview. He said,
• 21:10
  Speaker 6: you got one running back on the roster right now.
• 21:12
  Speaker 6: Who's who's banged up?
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: Right?
• 21:13
  Speaker 6: He's coming off a major injury. So you know that's
• 21:16
  Speaker 6: another position too. As I've been, you know, doing the
• 21:18
  Speaker 6: draft stuff, it's like running backs of priority, running backs
• 21:21
  Speaker 6: of priority.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: It is, everything's a priority an offense. But I was
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: listening to Catch twenty two a little bit with Alex
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: and Heaven and they were talking about, you know, the
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: draft and quarterbacks, and you know, which quarterback is going
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: to be best suited for the Patriots offense. We don't
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: have an offense yet, Okay, so how about what offense
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: is going to be best suited for the quarterback? Yeah,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: you know, instead of the other way around.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that they're they're assuming that they're going
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: to run something along the lines of what they would
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: have been.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: Pelt, Well, I think that I think that that's a
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: dangerous assumption. I think I think you taylor around your personnel,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: you know, force fee it.
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: I mean, you know, not to it was probably you know,
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: it's a little bit more coach speak, but they did
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: ask them that in the interview, not to give everything away,
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: but it was it was that tailoring, tailoring it to
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: your players. And you know, if you try to just
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: put players into your scheme.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: You have but you have a system, like, you can't
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: just change your system.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: You can tailor it.
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: Like the only way you would do that is if
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: you had like a Lamar Jackson type that's just not
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: like a conventional NFL quarterback. Yes, you would be stupid
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: to just say, no, we want you to run the
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: Tom Brady offense. We don't ever want you to run
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: the ball like, No, you have to tailor to the skills.
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: But I would think that you have a system that
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: and I think it will be similar to that sort
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: of Shanahan Kubiak kind of run, you know, under like
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: like Evan talked about last week under center, heavy play action,
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: half boots, taking shots down the field, but run dominant offense.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: I think that's what they're going to run. That's what
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: Van Peltz is, you know, done for four years.
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: And if that's true, it's running. I mean, how are
• 23:00
  Speaker 6: they going to do it with just a banged up
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: with Mundry Stevenson, like they.
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: Need at least that.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: You'll just get what's the best running back in the draft.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: Give me a napkin, I'll sign a guy.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: Who's who's the best running back in the draft this year?
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: Oh, don't look at me.
• 23:14
  Speaker 6: No, I I mean I just started dipping into that.
• 23:16
  Speaker 6: There's a you know, it's as usual though there. I
• 23:18
  Speaker 6: don't think there's not that Bejon Robinson type this year.
• 23:21
  Speaker 6: There's a lot of like, what's your kind of your
• 23:22
  Speaker 6: flavor in the mid rounds? Okay, you know there are
• 23:25
  Speaker 6: there are no Barkley, no, no, nobody, I mean nobody.
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: I mean maybe, let's face it, they're not you know,
• 23:30
  Speaker 6: they shouldn't be considering that anyway. But I just I
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: wonder if it's you say it's worth free agent too,
• 23:35
  Speaker 6: I mean, you know, go to free agency to I mean,
• 23:37
  Speaker 6: because you know, you get these guys coming off their
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: first contract. A lot of these guys are going to
• 23:41
  Speaker 6: shake loose, so you know, it's just it's just a
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: numbers game. Right now, you got one guy, like I mean,
• 23:45
  Speaker 6: if you're going to base your whole offense on running
• 23:47
  Speaker 6: the ball, you got to have at least a couple
• 23:49
  Speaker 6: that are actually the NFL players love that you can stay.
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: Hell, sign Austin Neckler sure to be more well rounded,
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: you know, run pass option than than Steven's And even
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: though Stevenson's got a lot of production as a receiver,
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: I don't look at him in that regard like like
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: Eckler or Kamara, you know, those kinds of those kind
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: of dynamic backs out of the backfield. But you're gonna
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: need some depth at running back obviously.
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: Does Kevin Harris get a shot too? But the shot
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: that we all, I think, Mike, you and I at
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: least thought last year he deserved. Yeah, you know, and
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: they went the Zeke rout and that was fine. Zeke
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: was fine.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: Could he come back?
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: I would hope not. I would hope you would use
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: your resources in a better way.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: But I mean, he didn't cost that much, did he?
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: Do you have to pay that for a backup running back?
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: Like three or four mili? Like, can't you just get
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: that on Kevin Harris's salary?
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: But I don't see why three or four million should
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: preclude him from being It doesn't.
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: It doesn't preclude you, but it might preclude you from
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: signing something else with three or four million, that's what
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: I would worry about.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean cap space fall over here.
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: Not cap space again. I don't know how many times
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: this needs to be explained to you. The cap space
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: they have, I think they have like the eighth or
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: ninth cap space football, Yeah, maybe even higher than that.
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: I don't think catspace is an issue. Yeah, money is.
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: Money is an issue for everybody. You don't let anybody
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: fool you on that. Jerry Jones, money is an issue
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: for There's a reason he doesn't pay coaches anything because
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: money counts.
• 25:15
  Speaker 6: I would just be very careful about extending on players
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: thirty plus years old.
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: And yeah, that's my point, Like Kevin Harris, give you
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: a reasonable.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: Like we're you know, in fact similar to and he
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: did the bigger piece of it too, which is.
• 25:28
  Speaker 6: Kind of a little bit of an epiphany that I've
• 25:30
  Speaker 6: had and we were talking about it yesterday. It's like
• 25:34
  Speaker 6: these quarterbacks in the draft and everything, like, if it
• 25:36
  Speaker 6: doesn't put you on a trajectory to challenge Josh Allen
• 25:40
  Speaker 6: and Patrick Mahomes and Patrick and Joe Burrow, that three guys,
• 25:43
  Speaker 6: then I don't want it.
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: I'm going to pull it tomorrow. I don't want it,
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: you know, like that I'm over it. Like that's that
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: like everything should be through that.
• 25:50
  Speaker 6: So it's like, you know, when we get into the
• 25:51
  Speaker 6: Kirk Cousins of it all, does that put you on
• 25:53
  Speaker 6: a trajectory to beat Josh Allen, Joe Burrow and Patrick Mahomes.
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: Oh I left out Jared Goff the way on my
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: list on Tuesday, thought about that later.
• 26:01
  Speaker 6: That's the goal, right, well, but you know, and that's
• 26:03
  Speaker 6: like kind of the overriding philosophy of like this overextending
• 26:06
  Speaker 6: yourself to sign a thirty one year old running back
• 26:09
  Speaker 6: at you know, maybe ya, it's affordable, but the possi point,
• 26:13
  Speaker 6: wouldn't it be better just to try Kevin harre And
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: if it doesn't work then.
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: And maybe he couldn't. Maybe if Kevin Harris played all
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: the time, maybe the ball security issues that we saw
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: a little bit as a rookie and even training camp
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: last year, at times I thought, yeah, maybe those would
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: be a problem. Maybe that's all it was. Yeah, you know,
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: and maybe that's why they went out and they felt
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: like they need to get Zeke, who again I thought
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: did a fine job. I thought he I thought he
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: was fine as a secondary back. I don't know if
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: Kevin Harris could chase down someone after an interception as
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: an example.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: But see I'm saying effort. I'm saying, if Kevin Harris
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: is on the team, Zeke's on the team, and then
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: you bring in a free agent who might be better
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: than both of them. And if Karen, if Kevin Harris,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: if Kevin Harris can beat out them.
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: Fine, but how many you need?
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: A statement? You need like five, at least five or
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: six running backs on your roster? Yes you do, Oh,
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: yes you do?
• 27:07
  Speaker 5: Paul.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: How many times have we said on this show the
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: last year, I know, but that wasn't good.
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: And how many games did you say, gees, I wish
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: they had not?
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: How many times on this show if we said what
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: are they gonna do with five running backs? And they
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: end up using all of them?
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, when they get hurt, you just go and get
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: somebody else.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: To replace you. You need a stable of running back.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: You don't want six, they don't. They don't all have
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: to be really good, but you need those guys.
• 27:30
  Speaker 6: I mean, I like, Paul, you know, the Eckler kind
• 27:32
  Speaker 6: of thing, like, you know, to get some quality and
• 27:35
  Speaker 6: you know, I don't need six. I just need somebody
• 27:38
  Speaker 6: needs to go with Ramandre and a rookie that you know,
• 27:41
  Speaker 6: four fifth round somewhere in there, somebody that you can carry.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: Four guys including Harris and Zeke.
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: Why does it have to include Zeke? Because why does
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: it have to have a thirty three?
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: How old is he?
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: I don't know?
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: Why does he have to have a thirty something?
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: You need your backup, but you have maybe two other
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: guys you bring in that are better right now? You know,
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying why not?
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: And I'm not listening. This is not a Kevin A'm married.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: Whenever you put him on social media.
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: Now I get it, Yeah, I see he's I mean
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: he's only twenty nine, you know. I mean, but a
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: thirty year old running back?
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Like why?
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: Like, I just don't understand why you have to have
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: a thirty year old backup runner.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: You don't have to have it.
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: But like, if I'm now playing at a high level,
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: like like you know, like Derek Henry or something, roll the.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: Dice to me. If it's four million, why not, I I'm.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: Because you can use that in so much better ways
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: I could running back.
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: I mean, I I'd rather put it to somebody else.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: I don't.
• 28:35
  Speaker 6: I if they brought back Elliott, I'd be fine with it,
• 28:38
  Speaker 6: but I don't really, I'm not really gonna buy.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: I'd rather put it to someone else.
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: What is it like that money?
• 28:45
  Speaker 8: You know?
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: If I'm going to do it for a running back,
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: I want that. I want a dynamic guy who's going
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: to make plays, right.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: Not a guy on the back and get him too.
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah huh, well, how much you want to invest in
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: running back?
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: This is my point that you don't run heavy team.
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: You don't need six guys.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: If you're a run heavy team, you better have some
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: running backs.
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: I mean Cleveland was a run heavy team last year.
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: They lost the Star and they were fine. Now were
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: they a super Bowl threat?
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: No, they weren't.
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: They had too many injuries to be a super Bowl threat.
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: But they filled it in with Kareem Hunt, that guy, Yeah,
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: what's the other guy's name? Ford? I think we forget
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: and then old friend Pierre Strong okay Pete who played
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: like one game. Like, you don't need six running backs.
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: You could just have like your practice squad guys fill
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: and you have sixteen practice squad spots. Now put a
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: guy on that. You have a running back or two
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: on your practice squad. And when that game comes up
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: that Echolo has heard, he's got the high ankles bring
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: because he does get hurt a lot.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: You move a guy up from the practice squad, we'll see,
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: we'll see.
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: Like it just it doesn't have to be a position
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: that requires a lot of financial research.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: I don't consider that a lot of financial resources. But
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: you know, frugal Paul over here, all of.
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: A sudden, I would rather have a four million, five
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: million dollar receiver as my third or fourth receiver then
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: running back like I might be able to make a
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: play or two with him. Maybe someone like Kendrick Bourne
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: years ago, who was okay in San Francisco but was
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: looking for a bigger role. Maybe you could find someone
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: like that, only better than Kendrick Bourne, you know, and
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: all of a sudden, he's looking to make the next step,
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: and you can get him for say six or seven millions.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: If I have to choose. If you're saying I can't
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: have Zeke if I have this wide receiver, then okay,
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: see you later, Zeke, And I'm not. I don't think
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: that's the case.
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: And it's and I'm like Mike, if they if they
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: sign Ezekiel Elliott. I'm not gonna sit there and say, well,
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: there goes that season. No, Like no, because it's a
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: running back and it's irrelevant, and I'm not gonna be
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: I'm not gonna pout because they signed a running back.
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: It's not going to be the difference between winning and losing.
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: But it just feels like the kind of move that
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: is for this year and not really an eye to
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: the future.
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: And you know, it's like, it's fine, but I'd prefer
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: to be thinking about trying to plug guys in who
• 31:03
  Speaker 6: are going to be here long term and get them
• 31:04
  Speaker 6: experience and building towards building beating.
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: It's along the lines of Patrick the amount of talk
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: that we continue to hear about, go get Kirk Cousins,
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: go get Baker Mayfield, and I just don't understand why
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: you would want to do that same kind of thing
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: with this. At some point, just embrace the fact that
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: you're rebuilding and try to rebuild now. If you don't
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: get a quarterback in the draft early in the draft
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: and you need somebody to come in and play, you
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: can do that, whether Jacoby Brissett or somebody, I mean,
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: even Garoppolo isn't going to cost you forty million.
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: Now I'm with lockstep. I'm lockstep with you on this party.
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: I really am.
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: Just rip the band aid off and accept the fact
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: that we need two or three draft classes stacked together
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: with good decisions on the bar Moars of the world
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: and the Gonzalezes of the world. The good decisions pain
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: the young talent that they have with the hopes of
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: getting better next year and then getting better a little
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: bit more than in twenty five. That's what that you know.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: And I'm not telling you you shouldn't have any aspirations
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: to win games next year. Like no one goes into
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: a year and says we're not gonna win any games
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: this year. Like you get get better, get younger, and
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: get more talented should be the number one goal. And
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: I don't think Ezekiel, Elliott and Kirk Cousins do that
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: for you. You might win more games, but then in
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: twenty five you're back to square one because those guys
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: are not big part of your future.
• 32:37
  Speaker 6: Put that one on Paul Talk, that one. That one
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: should be noted. It's a good, good Paul rent I
• 32:41
  Speaker 6: like that one. Paul's TikTok start they're doing.
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: Some work yesterday Paul's Oniktok the look on his face.
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: Had to do a couple of takes.
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: But you got to dance, right, Is that what it was?
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: It was a TikTok dance.
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: I did not dance. Oh, and I didn't have to
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: do that many takes either. I don't know what Saya
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: was telling you up there.
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: So it was like pulling teeth.
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: Now, it was definitely pulling teeth. I didn't want to
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: do it, but as predicted, my son kind of thinks
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: he might have to transfer it now.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: Eight five five pass five hundred is the ag ticket outline,
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: web radio at patries dot com. Is the email address?
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: Anything else? Before we open it up to the listeners.
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: We are going to get to our super Bowl pick
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: at the end of the show.
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: I don't really have to hurry for that.
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: Well, I have some thoughts things, So I'm with Freddy
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: on offensive line. Like I think the offensive line coach
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: was needed, and I like the profile. I like the
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: guy who worked under one of the very best. I
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: like the idea of that. I don't know if you
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: can coach at all. I don't have no idea if
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: he's any good I just like the fact that he
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: tutored under Bill Callahan. I really like.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: That's all.
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: That's all you can get when you said you didn't
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: like something on the defensive.
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: I don't like bringing back the Belichick guys, guys that are, yeah,
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: the guys that are holden to Bill. I worry about
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: back and forth with Bill. I don't I don't like it.
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: I don't like it.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: He's not coaching, so but you know, there's no intel
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: to really like worry about.
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: But it's not intel that I'm worried about. It's what
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: would you do it that way?
• 34:20
  Speaker 9: Dad?
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: No, oh me. Neither didn't seem right to me either. Well,
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: that's what I'm worried, I know.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: But Gerard's a Belichick guy too. In terms of who
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: we learned under for defense was I mean a lot
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: of what he learned from Bill. I'm sure he's gonna.
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: Use Based on reports last year, it didn't really seem
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: like those two were costectic.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: But that's not because of defensive philosophy.
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: You know, Do you understand what I'm saying, Mike at all?
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: No?
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not asking if you agree with I do,
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: but you don't have.
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: To know I don't. I don't.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: That has nothing to do with coaching the defense.
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: I'm talking about just in generation.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: I know what you're talking about.
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: Can I be blunt? We had an introductory press conference
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: where we couldn't seem to stop blaming everything on Bill Belichick.
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: I think that's just going to stop when they're coaching
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: the team and no one's going now but nothing. And
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: then you got two guys that were that are in
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: the league for one reason and one reason only, and
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: that's Bill Belichick, and they're going to be hearing this
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: negative stuff about Bill Belichick. Well, and I hope that's
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: my that's my concern.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: And if Gerard Mayo is smart, he will put an
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: end to that.
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: But he wasn't smart enough to not do it at
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: the press conference. But so I don't have any confidence
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: whatsoever that that's not gonna happen. Smart, when they're in
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: the building.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: He will put an end to that. And in terms
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: of coaching the defense, I think Mayo is going to
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: use a lot of what he learned from Bill Belichick.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: So I think that that part of it will be okay.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: But I hear what you're saying, Yeah, and that's that
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: can't happen.
• 35:42
  Speaker 6: I know, well, and I think, you know, I think
• 35:44
  Speaker 6: Brian probably realizes he's the only one of them left
• 35:46
  Speaker 6: in the NFL right now. And you know, this is
• 35:48
  Speaker 6: for as much as it's like go somewhere else, and
• 35:51
  Speaker 6: you know, like he's not going somewhere else, but it
• 35:53
  Speaker 6: is a chance for him to, you know, under a
• 35:55
  Speaker 6: different system, with different coaches, playing under DeMarcus Covington. Now,
• 35:58
  Speaker 6: I'm sure there'll be some tweaks to the system. I
• 36:00
  Speaker 6: like Brian, I like Pellegrino. I think they've done it both.
• 36:03
  Speaker 6: I mean, I hear what Paul's saying to me.
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: Pellegrino is just like Belichick, just like Brian Belichick. Like,
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: I don't worry about Covington. Covington came into the league whatever,
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: you know, Covington cut his teeth under Bill too. I
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: think that's a fine hire. I'm not as worried about that.
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: Pellegrino is a lacrosse coach, friends with the Belichicks.
• 36:21
  Speaker 6: Like there's a difference, Yeah, but he's done a good
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: job and he's been around for a while. And I mean,
• 36:25
  Speaker 6: you know, you get some credit for developing Gonzales last
• 36:28
  Speaker 6: year out of the gate and letting him get in there.
• 36:29
  Speaker 6: And you know, I think of all the position groups
• 36:31
  Speaker 6: that they've had, I think he can point to, you know,
• 36:33
  Speaker 6: the secondary for having good.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: Coaching, and that might be a factor. Maybe Gonzales likes Pellegrino,
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: you know, and it's like, yeah, keep them. They have
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: a good relationship. He's coached him well.
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: And I hope you guys are right.
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I hope you too.
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: I'm concerned about it. I'm concerned about it, all right.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: Eight five to five pats five hundred is the ace
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: ticket hut line. Let's get to the phones, which are
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: stacked up Patty's and Agawa. What up, Patty?
• 37:01
  Speaker 10: What's going on?
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: Hey?
• 37:03
  Speaker 11: Hey, hopefully my phone's a little bit better today.
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: I know, really, so, I just wanted to make it's.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: Not it's terrible. Yeah, yeah, it's not good. Call back,
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: call back. Let's go to Eldred in North Carolina. What's up? Eldred?
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: Here he is, Hey, let's go.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: What's up.
• 37:27
  Speaker 10: I'm hoping I was hoping it will be there.
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 37:30
  Speaker 4: He's sick a little bit.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: But but Mike, yeah, I didn't forget you, man, come on,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: let's go.
• 37:35
  Speaker 10: I know, but but but this girl walk by with
• 37:39
  Speaker 10: a gym step on and think.
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: I forgive you for that.
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: Eldrick, Yeah, I forget.
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: I did not have that in Eldrid Bingo. I didn't
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: have it.
• 37:48
  Speaker 10: Did you?
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: Did you hunt your horn at her.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: A little bit?
• 37:51
  Speaker 5: No?
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: I was looking at it.
• 37:51
  Speaker 10: I couldn't hont.
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 37:55
  Speaker 10: I don't think you need to work. Get back.
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: She's done, get back?
• 38:00
  Speaker 10: Uh show u uh. North Carolina gave Evan a rude
• 38:04
  Speaker 10: awakening about Drake May but uh, and then he kind
• 38:08
  Speaker 10: of scarfed us a little bit. But if I won't
• 38:10
  Speaker 10: tell Evan was Evans. We ain't knocking you for WoT
• 38:13
  Speaker 10: somebody like that. But see, we see him every weekend.
• 38:16
  Speaker 10: One thing we do. We watch, you know, college and
• 38:19
  Speaker 10: all that, and his case at his feet. He's not
• 38:23
  Speaker 10: too much accurate. I don't know how he got sucking.
• 38:26
  Speaker 10: There'll be the second best quarterback in the in the
• 38:28
  Speaker 10: in the crap if I was Pennick or what you card,
• 38:30
  Speaker 10: I be mad on the what about that? Because he
• 38:32
  Speaker 10: haven't won that he ever did that much, you know,
• 38:35
  Speaker 10: and he has played from the shotgun when all the
• 38:38
  Speaker 10: stuff underneath. But his accuracy throws, it's not good down
• 38:43
  Speaker 10: the field or whatever, and him and Pennies ran about
• 38:45
  Speaker 10: the same thing that Penny did from the shotgun in
• 38:48
  Speaker 10: underneath he did it from the shotgun. Well, penalty from shotgun,
• 38:51
  Speaker 10: but he did under these two. Let's play action pass
• 38:53
  Speaker 10: and taking deep shot. PENNI is a whole lot better
• 38:55
  Speaker 10: than he is, you know. But I'm gonna say this
• 38:58
  Speaker 10: isn't gonna let it go. Story last year before the
• 39:02
  Speaker 10: draft with the whiskey tavern a bar, and we have
• 39:06
  Speaker 10: a little little drinks the dinner. But pick when when
• 39:09
  Speaker 10: the Panthers picked Rice Young, I did wrong. Pick should
• 39:12
  Speaker 10: have got dropped, anybody said everybody booth me a couple
• 39:16
  Speaker 10: of weeks ago later.
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: This is the Alex van Pelt of the trunking business.
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, it's Ben Ben.
• 39:26
  Speaker 5: No.
• 39:26
  Speaker 10: But I did say that some of the people are
• 39:28
  Speaker 10: still there. They pay for my dinner. Eighty dollars dinner.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: Wow, right, okay, all right, all right.
• 39:35
  Speaker 10: We'll see you next week.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah you will, Thanks later, uh Sam and Saint Catherines
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: writes in Paul, arguing that he wants Eckler over Zeke
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: because Zeke is too old, when Eckler is a couple
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: of months older than Zeke is peak, Paul.
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: But he's better. Wow, but he's that's a talent difference,
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: not an age defer. Okay, all right, all right, And
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: and I like Eckler better than rmondre Stevenson. Like, I'm
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: not signing Eckler because I want to back up running.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: Matt and carlsbad Paul, Why why do you strongly hold
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: the opinion of fans who want a specific player but
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: not a seemingly huge price tag. Your stance has been
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: if you like the player, why do you, as a
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: fan care about what the price tag is? However, today
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: you keep what are we talking? You think keeping Zeke
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: is a bad idea because of his price tag? Please
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: explain the difference. He doesn't like the player, He just
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: doesn't like the player.
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not that Like what I mean this is
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: not hard like. Eckler can be a like a he
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: can be a front line starting running back. And by
• 40:35
  Speaker 3: the way, he's like an MVP. If I'm going to
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: be completely honest, I'm not really interested in signing Eckler either.
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: I'm saying, if you're going to sign a running back,
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: a veteran running back, get a good one.
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: Paul would have the first team that has no running back.
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: No, they would all they would all be young guys
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: on rookie contracts. Everybody talks about the quarterback needs to
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: be on the rookie deal. That's the secret, Sauce. The
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: running back on the on the rookie deal is where
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: you make your money. Productive running backs and then you
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: let them go and then get another guy because you
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: could just draft one in the third or fourth round.
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: Every year there's guys that are productive.
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 41:10
  Speaker 4: No, it makes me wonder what they might do with
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: Stevenson after this.
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: She'll be rounding me up over there.
• 41:15
  Speaker 10: I see.
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: You draft them, play them, you get them out.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: That's what it is, right, they get the running back.
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: And I understand Fred that you need to have running
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: backs and you need to run the ball a little bit.
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: I'm not telling you that I just want to throw
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: the ball sixty times every game. I don't want to
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: do that. I don't honestly. I just don't think that
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: you need to have like the best running back possible
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: all the time. There are a few exceptions. I would
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: take Christian McCaffrey on my team absolutely. I just mentioned
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: as Austin.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: Eckler would take Christian McCaffrey.
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: You know, the last four or five years of Austin
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: Eckler I would absolutely like to have on my team.
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: I liked Alvinmarra. I like Alvin Kamara. Terrific career. I'm
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: no longer interested now, but terrific productive player. Absolutely. I
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: don't need to draft Jamiir Gibbs at twelve. I don't
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: need that.
• 42:14
  Speaker 12: No.
• 42:14
  Speaker 6: I mean, I'm with you, and I think that's like
• 42:16
  Speaker 6: we spend so much time talking about this stuff and
• 42:18
  Speaker 6: then it's like you actually have to prioritize, Like you
• 42:20
  Speaker 6: can't just say I want the best that I want
• 42:21
  Speaker 6: the best tackle.
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: I want the best like he kind of have. You know,
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: there has to be a philosophy. It has to be
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: a middle class mic. There has to be. It has
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: to be. It has to be strong, strong, middle stress.
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: Yep uh, Lucas Will has to be someone visiting your
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: house on Christmas Eve.
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: Lucas is the North Attleborough. What's up Lucas?
• 42:38
  Speaker 13: Hey, guys, I'm just wondering, with all this talk about
• 42:40
  Speaker 13: the draft, why don't we take the third pick that
• 42:45
  Speaker 13: we have, whether it's Jene Daniels and Drake may or something,
• 42:50
  Speaker 13: and while we just one of their receivers that they
• 42:54
  Speaker 13: played with in college, one of them is gone, right,
• 42:56
  Speaker 13: and that's drafts. Yeah, so why don't we train it
• 43:00
  Speaker 13: up basically, get like.
• 43:02
  Speaker 3: Trade up with what one of the receivers, Well you're.
• 43:06
  Speaker 4: Not gonna get, yeah, trade down Walker from U n C.
• 43:11
  Speaker 13: And then we trade up with like another second and
• 43:14
  Speaker 13: playing on or something.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, there's there's a lot of ways to do it.
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: Thanks for the Carl Lucas. I mean, I don't know.
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's.
• 43:22
  Speaker 4: Hard to Walker didn't have a great week at the
• 43:23
  Speaker 4: Senior Bowl.
• 43:24
  Speaker 6: I mean, I'm not gonna get Neighbors and and and
• 43:27
  Speaker 6: Jayden Daniels together like a's much.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's the.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: Idea of you know, Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase is
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: great and Jalen Waddle you know, you know, and all
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: that stuff. But those guys are going to go high
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: in the draft. So in this case, Neighbors is Jaden
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: Daniels's teammate. You you can't trade up to get Elik Neighbors.
• 43:47
  Speaker 3: If you take Daniels at three, you don't have anything
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: to trade up with you, I mean, unless you're like
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: forfeiting next year, No way, And I don't think people
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: want to do that right right now. And I don't know,
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: are you guys big on that? Like the college teammate thing,
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: I think, I don't think it hurts, but I don't think. No,
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: it certainly doesn't hurt. But I'm so much for the connection.
• 44:07
  Speaker 4: More just the connection to which school. And you know, well,
• 44:10
  Speaker 4: they played at Alabama, but it's not that they played together,
• 44:12
  Speaker 4: it's that they played at Alabama in the SEC, right.
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: I like, real quick, off the top of your head,
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: who was North Carolina's top receiver.
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: Walker, isn't it?
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: That's what you want him?
• 44:22
  Speaker 4: Not really?
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: Like yep, Malik Neighbors signed me up. Yeah, I would.
• 44:27
  Speaker 3: I would absolutely take him. He's a really good player,
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: you know. But I don't have any problem if I
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: get Drake May and Romadunza. Yeah, and I don't need
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: Pennix to go with the DNA because they played together.
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: Jake's at State Farm. What's up, Jake?
• 44:45
  Speaker 14: Hey, guys?
• 44:45
  Speaker 13: How you doing all right?
• 44:49
  Speaker 14: So a long time, first time here, so Stoff just
• 44:52
  Speaker 14: want to thank you for making the work a lot
• 44:54
  Speaker 14: easier and listening. And I think twenty eleven I missed
• 44:59
  Speaker 14: the Fred Paul and you guys are still going strong.
• 45:02
  Speaker 15: Anyways, I know you guys the house, so I gotta hurry.
• 45:07
  Speaker 14: But seems like you guys have just been flooded with
• 45:10
  Speaker 14: draft talks. I wanted to throw something different at you,
• 45:12
  Speaker 14: a little off season fun. I'm building an all time
• 45:16
  Speaker 14: team for the past. Sometimes I do it for Madden games,
• 45:19
  Speaker 14: sometimes just do it on paper for fun.
• 45:21
  Speaker 15: But my question to you guys is.
• 45:24
  Speaker 14: Who would you put for the starting three at linebackers
• 45:27
  Speaker 14: and then who would you pick for the three starting
• 45:30
  Speaker 14: running backs? Because those are the two positions to struggle
• 45:33
  Speaker 14: with the most.
• 45:33
  Speaker 13: And I'll take it.
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: Off their Patriots all time team or is this this
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: is Patriots right? Yeah? Well tipp It obviously is number
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: one for the linebacker.
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the three best linebackers of Patriots history.
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: I mean high Tower tipp It. I mean, is do
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: you consider McGuinness the linebacker.
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: Or I think if you're only going three, you got
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: to consider him an end. But if you're going four,
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: then McGuinness is probably one of the outside guys. Yeah,
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: I mean Steve Nelson, I mean Rabel.
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: There's a lot.
• 46:09
  Speaker 3: There's a lot, yeah, yeah, And it depends like the
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: not the sound ill Evan on you. It depends on
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: what you're playing.
• 46:16
  Speaker 6: Right, yeah, three four four three even front, Yeah, running back, though,
• 46:22
  Speaker 6: I Corey Dillon's got to be near the top.
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: Oh, Curtis Martin, Curtis.
• 46:26
  Speaker 4: Mark, Curtis Dylan, and uh, what do you say?
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: Three ye Corey Dillon at one year? I'm out on Dylan.
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: It's a good year.
• 46:33
  Speaker 3: It was a great year, best year in Patriots history
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: running back.
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: But I think Curtis Martin, you know, you look back
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: at the year where they broke the NFL record for rushing.
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: But it was a committee.
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: It wasn't like one guy Cunningham would would deserve consideration
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: but Sam Bam. But Martin would be my pick, even
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: though it was only three years. But Dylan did not
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: like literally fell off a cliff.
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: I remember watching him try to run into six ouch.
• 47:01
  Speaker 6: Fuck Kevin fuck I mean Patriots specific Like, I don't
• 47:06
  Speaker 6: know if I would put him up. Excuse me, is like,
• 47:08
  Speaker 6: you know, all time running backs in the league. But
• 47:10
  Speaker 6: like in terms of what he meant to the Patriots
• 47:12
  Speaker 6: and what he provided for them.
• 47:14
  Speaker 3: Is he the best third down back the pat I
• 47:17
  Speaker 3: think so?
• 47:18
  Speaker 4: I think so.
• 47:19
  Speaker 6: I mean Veren short Wood had short short time. I
• 47:23
  Speaker 6: mean James White maybe, but Ron.
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: Burton, Yeah, it's a good I think the running the
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: third down back is a good argument because I think
• 47:34
  Speaker 3: that you could make an argument that Kevin Falk would
• 47:36
  Speaker 3: have been much more productive if he played when Veren
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: and White did sure, you know, accentuated that a lot more. Yeah,
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: Falk is probably.
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: The You can't argue with James White's productivity, especially in
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: the big moment. I mean he was always there for yeah.
• 47:54
  Speaker 3: But so as fuck though, right Jimmy White.
• 47:56
  Speaker 4: I mean i'd lean Falk on that one. I think
• 47:58
  Speaker 4: just I think bigger body will work and you know,
• 48:01
  Speaker 4: the longevity.
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: But to me, you know, and I know they both
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: played you know, in the eye or whatever and as
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: a traditional running back, but they're almost like different positions
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: than Corey Dillon.
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: Wash. That's why that's why they're calling him. But that's
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: why we're doing it. That's this way, don't That's why
• 48:21
  Speaker 3: we're calling him third that's the whole part.
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: But the caller said running back.
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: He's like, you know, that's right. I mean, I know,
• 48:29
  Speaker 3: the different bath like, that's why we broke it up.
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: But the caller didn't, So we're getting away from what well.
• 48:35
  Speaker 3: My my answer to his question was Curtis bart My answer, Yeah.
• 48:39
  Speaker 4: Paul always brings it back to the scheme. You know,
• 48:40
  Speaker 4: it was like four three three four.
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: Le Mike knows, I can't get enough of the ex's
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: and o's. But break it down, bro, if you don't
• 48:49
  Speaker 3: know ex's and o's, there's no sense to even watch.
• 48:51
  Speaker 4: Somebody you have to fill in for. You're doing a
• 48:52
  Speaker 4: great job making us sound.
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: Let's get back to the phones. Go to Chris with
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: a T I A N what's up? Christian?
• 49:06
  Speaker 8: Hey, guys, uh bred, you definitely don't need five running
• 49:10
  Speaker 8: backs anymore, six six, you know, like especially on this team,
• 49:16
  Speaker 8: Like I don't care if they're gonna run the ball
• 49:17
  Speaker 8: at most, you need three. I just I just not
• 49:22
  Speaker 8: the NFL anymore. Like I take like Paul, I take
• 49:25
  Speaker 8: Christian McCaffrey in a hockey but anybody else. Like That's
• 49:29
  Speaker 8: one thing Bill was was right on about recycling the
• 49:33
  Speaker 8: running backs like that. He was he was totally right
• 49:36
  Speaker 8: about that. Just just changing him in and out every year.
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: And that's fine. But I'm not saying that like I'm
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: just saying that, why not Zeke, you know, as a backup.
• 49:47
  Speaker 3: And I told saying, but I told you that I
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: agree with you and Mike if they resigned, Zeke, I'm
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: not gonna it's not gonna bother me. I just think
• 49:55
  Speaker 3: that they would. I would rather somebody else. But it's
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: not gonna kill me. I know, it's not you know,
• 49:59
  Speaker 3: it's not gonna buy was a kid.
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: Running backs were the top of the draft.
• 50:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I know.
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: And I know that's changed. That's not happening anymore, you know.
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: But I mean, even if you.
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: Go to like two thousand and one, the running back
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: was the focal point of the offense. Like it's just
• 50:12
  Speaker 3: a different game.
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: I understand that. I understand that.
• 50:17
  Speaker 8: I wanted to get your thoughts and I joined the
• 50:19
  Speaker 8: show late about like a half power. But did you
• 50:22
  Speaker 8: guys talk about the Lombardi interview at all on Pelgrim?
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: We have not talked about that.
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: We didn't get on get into that last show. Yeah,
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: it was a good it was a good interview. Ut
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: I think I think Mike caught him in a lot
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: of like, you know, contradictions.
• 50:37
  Speaker 4: You think which might cut which Mike.
• 50:39
  Speaker 3: Felger Lombardi and a lot of contradictions, you know, like
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: when Lombardi says, well, you know, they're last in the
• 50:45
  Speaker 3: league in cash spending. Well, you know, like, so let's
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: let's let's look into that, you know, like, why do
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: you think do you think that was Well, I don't know.
• 50:51
  Speaker 3: I wasn't you know, I'm not in the building. Like, oh, okay,
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: I'm glad. I'm glad that you are the insider. And
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: Felger's the moron who doesn't know what he's talking about.
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: He's not inside the building like you are. But then
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: when you're asked to explain yourself, you you too were
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: not inside the building. Yeah, got it.
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a nice trick.
• 51:08
  Speaker 4: There was a lot of fact checking going on afterwards.
• 51:11
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I didn't. I didn't think much of Lombardi before
• 51:13
  Speaker 8: an interview, and I.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: Think even less of him now.
• 51:16
  Speaker 3: The problem that's why we get along, bro.
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: The problem with Lombardi is he's not bad. Like I
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: read his book. It was a good book, but the
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: one but he you know, he has to admit when
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: it comes to the subject of Bill Belichick, I'm biased,
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not objective.
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: Basically, his his whole goal on that interview was to
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: let everybody know, here are the three or four reasons
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: why they stunk. They were really good. Bill did a
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: really good job, but the quarterback let him down. They
• 51:46
  Speaker 3: don't spend any money, and he wasn't allowed to do
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: what he wanted to do. That's the bottom line.
• 51:52
  Speaker 8: The teacher to wise Crow too, like we know we're
• 51:56
  Speaker 8: you know, we our record says something the effect of,
• 51:59
  Speaker 8: you know, but we weren't a bad football team, No,
• 52:00
  Speaker 8: you were four.
• 52:02
  Speaker 3: Well that's the other thing, like, you know, his big
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: thing was like Felger's going with Bill's track record without
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: Brady and Lombardy jumps ugly on him. It's a lazy narrative.
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: But meanwhile, he just got finished saying that was a
• 52:15
  Speaker 3: really good team last year that got let down by
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: its quarterback. They lost a lot of close games. Well,
• 52:19
  Speaker 3: if you weren't offering a lazy narrative, you'd know that
• 52:22
  Speaker 3: most of those close games the Patriots scored last in
• 52:25
  Speaker 3: to make it close, and they didn't really have a
• 52:28
  Speaker 3: lot of close games, and it wasn't just about poor
• 52:30
  Speaker 3: quarterback play.
• 52:32
  Speaker 11: You know.
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: And then he goes off and I don't know if
• 52:34
  Speaker 3: you heard so there was a lot of like little subtle,
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: subtle jabs he rips Mac Jones left and right and
• 52:41
  Speaker 3: basically drops that on Robert Kraft's lap and then he
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: goes and then then what are you gonna do? You
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: replaced him with someone who's even worse. Oh okay, so
• 52:50
  Speaker 3: now you saddled with two bad quarterbacks. It wasn't just one.
• 52:55
  Speaker 3: Like somehow Cleveland was able to find ways to win
• 52:58
  Speaker 3: games with four different.
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: Quarterbacks the team. I mean, that was part of his job.
• 53:02
  Speaker 3: But Lombardy wasn't having it in true fashion.
• 53:06
  Speaker 16: You know what.
• 53:07
  Speaker 3: It reminded me of Fred when you used to argue
• 53:09
  Speaker 3: with Andy and you would have Andy and Andy would
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: lash out from the corner, just throwing haymakers and saying
• 53:16
  Speaker 3: the same stupid thing over and over again. Hyperbolic. Right,
• 53:19
  Speaker 3: that's what Lombardi kept doing. I mean you must.
• 53:22
  Speaker 16: Believe, I mean, you must have been on the sixth
• 53:24
  Speaker 16: floor of Daily Pluzzle, like you must believe us Weald
• 53:26
  Speaker 16: after the law. I mean, why would Bill Belichick give
• 53:29
  Speaker 16: a rat ass about what Mike Flegler think? Like, when
• 53:34
  Speaker 16: you're beating an argument, you just keep repeating stupid stuff
• 53:38
  Speaker 16: that has nothing to.
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: Do with the argument, over and over again. And that
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: was kind of I'm surprised Felger didn't jump ugly on him.
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: I can't believe he did, because we all know that
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: they do. Listen to what these people say.
• 53:50
  Speaker 3: Imagine the care Imagine saying to Felger, like, you can
• 53:53
  Speaker 3: think what you want to Felger, I know that you
• 53:54
  Speaker 3: make fun of me my shows. You Imagine saying to
• 53:57
  Speaker 3: Mike Felger, You've never been able to talk to Bill Belichick,
• 54:00
  Speaker 3: right right, like talk about lazy narrative. Yeah, Like, Mike
• 54:06
  Speaker 3: Felger probably had as close a relationship with Bill as
• 54:09
  Speaker 3: anybody on that beat at any time in that twenty
• 54:11
  Speaker 3: five years, Closer than any of us, way closer about us.
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: I was never on that I didn't even have a relationship.
• 54:17
  Speaker 3: Were you ever on the boat? No, the Six Rings?
• 54:20
  Speaker 3: Were you ever to Nantucket House? Nope, I can tell
• 54:23
  Speaker 3: you Felder was I know, wow, I.
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: Know trying to him out.
• 54:28
  Speaker 3: Absolutely absolutely.
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 54:31
  Speaker 6: The thing with the Bill narrative too, though, right now
• 54:32
  Speaker 6: this is just hard for me, is like and you
• 54:34
  Speaker 6: know all that stuff like that we talked about for
• 54:35
  Speaker 6: the last four years, and it's just like, I but
• 54:38
  Speaker 6: like just the state of the offense right now, It's like,
• 54:42
  Speaker 6: how did Bill Belichick let this team get to this point,
• 54:45
  Speaker 6: and even if he was still here.
• 54:47
  Speaker 4: Do you how do you salvage it? I mean we're
• 54:48
  Speaker 4: talking it's multiple years he's been on the I mean,
• 54:52
  Speaker 4: what happened to the reset year in twenty twenty, I
• 54:53
  Speaker 4: mean we're four years later.
• 54:54
  Speaker 3: Oh oh, that was a great year of coaching. He
• 54:57
  Speaker 3: went seven and nine with.
• 54:58
  Speaker 6: A guy who can't throw the ball, who picked the
• 55:01
  Speaker 6: who wanted to have a guy who can't throw the ball,
• 55:03
  Speaker 6: And that's where I agree.
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: Well, actually it was kind of it was kind of
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: a good coaching. It was a good coach, but that
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: wasn't all of his job. You know, that was only
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: part of his job.
• 55:11
  Speaker 6: He did not do a good coach I think for
• 55:13
  Speaker 6: that first week against Miami when they kind of sprung
• 55:16
  Speaker 6: it on him, you know, and all right, well that
• 55:17
  Speaker 6: was good.
• 55:18
  Speaker 4: Because it was a little different, but you know, and
• 55:19
  Speaker 4: then it flamed out.
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: And I know, but Cam Newton was god awful.
• 55:24
  Speaker 3: You know, is better than Mac Jones.
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: I'm not even sure that Paul at this point he was, Yeah.
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: He was last year, not twenty one, twenty one. Mac
• 55:35
  Speaker 3: Jones was a lot better than anything Cam Newton did.
• 55:37
  Speaker 3: But the other part, like what Fred said, I can't
• 55:38
  Speaker 3: believe Felger, you know, didn't respond like that's the kind
• 55:41
  Speaker 3: of stuff Like all Felger said, well, who's responsible for
• 55:45
  Speaker 3: putting the team together, you know? Was Bill? And then
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: I would have gone a step further if I were Felgrim,
• 55:51
  Speaker 3: like the reason why they're so lacking on offense is
• 55:54
  Speaker 3: because Bill doesn't believe in it. And this is the
• 55:57
  Speaker 3: same style of play that he's tried to use for
• 55:59
  Speaker 3: twenty five years that is not really working anymore without Brady.
• 56:03
  Speaker 3: It's not a lazy narrative to say that they had
• 56:05
  Speaker 3: eleven different seasons without Brady and never won a playoff game,
• 56:08
  Speaker 3: but one playoff win. Sorry, do you think any.
• 56:11
  Speaker 6: Part of it with Felger is a very experienced radio person,
• 56:14
  Speaker 6: was when you have somebody on the ropes like that
• 56:15
  Speaker 6: and let him just kind of let him go.
• 56:17
  Speaker 3: I do think that's what he did. And I know
• 56:20
  Speaker 3: Tony and Murray got a lot of christ Now, I
• 56:22
  Speaker 3: would not have done what Tony did. You guys know
• 56:25
  Speaker 3: me well well enough. There's no way I could have
• 56:27
  Speaker 3: sat that out right, There's no way I would hear
• 56:29
  Speaker 3: sat down. But I think Tony looked at it that way,
• 56:33
  Speaker 3: like this guy's making a fool of himself. Mike is
• 56:36
  Speaker 3: doing fine. I'm gonna sit out.
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And you don't want it, like he is a
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: guest on your show, you don't want to. I think that.
• 56:42
  Speaker 3: I think that was part of it too, this whole thing,
• 56:44
  Speaker 3: like I don't know what I was coming on for.
• 56:46
  Speaker 3: You came on looking for a fight. Lombardy went there
• 56:50
  Speaker 3: looking for a fight.
• 56:51
  Speaker 5: Think.
• 56:51
  Speaker 3: Oh, the whole thing about the fake Patrick Pass account
• 56:54
  Speaker 3: that he retweeted.
• 56:56
  Speaker 4: I don't know what that is it was about.
• 56:58
  Speaker 3: There's a fake Patrick Pass account.
• 56:59
  Speaker 4: Then even I know this, Jesus, I don't do social media.
• 57:02
  Speaker 3: You don't, Okay, maybe on TikTok, I'll teach you how
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: to do I'll teach you that. I'll teach you the
• 57:08
  Speaker 3: ins and outs of TikTok. But there's a fake Patrick
• 57:12
  Speaker 3: Pass account that said that.
• 57:15
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 57:15
  Speaker 3: Basically, Felger was able to convince the Crafts to move
• 57:19
  Speaker 3: on from Belichicker. Felger was able to convince the crowd
• 57:23
  Speaker 3: and Michael Lombardi quote tweeted and said preach In other words,
• 57:32
  Speaker 3: I didn't know that he spelled preach wrong too. So
• 57:39
  Speaker 3: in fairness I don't. I believe Mike thought it was
• 57:41
  Speaker 3: real too. It was really Patrick passed too, like neither
• 57:44
  Speaker 3: one of them knew it was a fake.
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: Account, but still knowing thinking that it was real makes
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: that tweet or that response by Lombardi's right.
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: But that's what I'm saying. He came in looking for
• 57:56
  Speaker 3: a fight. You can't then pretend, is it Flegler?
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 58:01
  Speaker 3: Like that's like it's like John Dennis.
• 58:03
  Speaker 12: Like.
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: Like you're so above you. I don't know your name.
• 58:07
  Speaker 3: You're exposing yourself as a fraud. Right, all right, as
• 58:11
  Speaker 3: you see Paul's foods here, it's pizzas here.

• 1:00:03
  Speaker 5: I get to host today's episode, so I'm super excited
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 5: about that.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 4: I gift for all you do.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: Yes, thank you.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you're like great. I don't have to do it today,
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 5: but as always, we're to get started with some trivia,
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 5: and with the super Bowl coming up, I figured might
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 5: as well have some super Bowl themed trivia. So first question,
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 5: what was the average ticket price for the first ever
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 5: Super Bowl? Let tell you what it was, certainly not
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 5: what it is now, all right, super Bowl twenty seven. Okay,
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 5: so by defeating the Bills fifty two to seventeen, which
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 5: coach became the first person to win a national championship
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 5: and a super Bowl title. I have no idea then
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 5: looking at super Bowl thirty three, which Hall of Fame
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 5: quarterback rode off into the sunset after winning MVP honors
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 5: and the super Bowl that year. So a little bit
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 5: of history lesson Yeah yeah, found them on CBS dot com. Oh,
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 5: but we have a super Bowl coming up this weekend.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 5: The San Francisco forty nine ers and the Kansas City
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 5: Chiefs for super Bowl fifty eight. This is it. Well,
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 5: maybe it's been rumored to be the super Bowl that
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 5: nobody wanted, but it is a rematch of the one
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 5: from twenty twenty. How are you feeling. Let's talk about
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 5: the Kansas City Chiefs for a second. How did they
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 5: get here? How do they get this?
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 9: I don't think they're that good. Like the defense, it's
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 9: the defense. Stagnol is an unreal defensive coordinator. He stuffed
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 9: us twice in the Super Bowl or yeah, one of
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 9: the two I forget. So really defense, I mean the
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 9: wide receivers for the Chiefs just haven't.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: Been all that.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 9: But that's how you kind of prove greatness as a quarterback,
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 9: which Mahomes has done, which is you elevate the players
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 9: around you. Yeah, and he's done that. I mean they
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 9: hit on Rashie Rice and even Tony when he catches
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 9: the ball, he's when he catches what he doesn't he's
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 9: doing what he's doing. But yeah, I think just solid,
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 9: good enough offense and elite defense.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah, No, I think Patrick Mahomes recently came out and said, like,
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 5: sometimes you just have to lean on the fact that
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 5: your defense is out playing the offense and lean into
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 5: what you have. And it's gotten them this far.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 9: I mean, like it doesn't help when when Kelsey decides
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 9: to be a football player. Oh yeah, See, he had
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 9: a bit of a lull there and now he's been
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 9: going off.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, And I think he was quoted saying that he
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 5: wants this Super Bowl more than anyone that he's played
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 5: in before. So he's fired up, he's ready to go.
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 5: Of course, there's all the Taylor Swift Is she going
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 5: to be there? How is she going to be there?
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: Too? We did some prop bets for the last one,
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: so yeah, so.
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 5: I think we'll certainly see how that plays out. But
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 5: I mean on the forty nine ers side, they were
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 5: twelve and five on the season, won the NFC West,
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 5: their first in the NFC. Like, they've been dominant all season.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 5: I think with Kyle Shanahan and Brock Purdy, they've they've
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 5: really just hit their stride. Their roster is beyond stacked.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 5: Like I talked a lot about, just like the playmakers
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 5: that are on this team on my own podcast, Playmakers Perspective.
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 5: Check it out. You've got Deebo, Samuel, George Kittle, Christian
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 5: McCaffrey like on offense, and then their defense is also
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 5: playing lights out. You've got Nick Bosa, Chris Fred Warner, Like,
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 5: I just think all around, this is on paper a
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 5: more talented team. It's just going to be if they
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 5: decide to show up.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 9: It's it's it all comes down to party. The games
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 9: they lost is Purty being bad and he did almost
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 9: everything in his power to lose that game against the Lions.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 9: It takes some buck sometimes, and you know if he
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 9: gets that out of his system and just plays within
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 9: himself and just gets the balls to his Avengers, yeah
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 9: he will, Like there's no like they pretty much. My
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 9: thought is they can't go down. If they go down
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 9: by two scores, Oh, it's gonna be very hard from
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 9: the comeback because I mean the Chiefs held the Ravens
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 9: to what however many points?
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 5: It was, Like, Yeah, I think it's crazy because all
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 5: playoffs the forty nine ers have had to come back,
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 5: which is something that they couldn't really do all season
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 5: and then figured it out in the off season or
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 5: in the postseason obviously, But I agree, if they're down
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 5: two scores to the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes is Patrick
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 5: Mahomes in the playoffs, like, I don't know how you
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 5: come back.
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 9: You're gonna you're gonna get the nitpicky calls against like
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 9: for Mahomes, like it's all gonna happen, so you just
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 9: like you kind of. I don't want to say, play
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 9: a perfect game, but you can't turn the ball over?
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, who do you?
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 5: Who do you think is gonna come out on top?
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 9: I don't know if I'm doing to want or think yeah,
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 9: yeah there's two maybe because you know, I don't. I
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 9: think the Chiefs defense is too good for it to
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 9: be like too high scoring a game. I'm gonna go
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 9: like twenty one seventeen, forty nine ers fair, I think they.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 9: I think Shanahan finally gets it done.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 9: I don't know who MVP will be. It'll go to
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 9: whoever the quarterback is, but it might be like you know,
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 9: like fifty one, like Tom Brady was an MVP, but
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 9: James White, yeah did all the dirty work.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 5: But I feel like it would be tough for the NFL,
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 5: if like the forty nine Ers win, to not give
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 5: it to mister irrelevant. I feel like it has to
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 5: have like that's the storyline. If you're a Super Bowl
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 5: champ like you and you're mister irrelevant, I feel like
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 5: you have to.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 9: It's just funny because like, you know, perty's gonna end
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 9: up being like twenty five for like thirty five. Yeah,
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 9: but somehow it's gonna be like one hundred and ninety
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 9: yards like that. But like, and the McCaffrey's gonna have
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 9: three touchdowns.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 5: Oh absolutely, I hope McCaffrey has an absolutely unreal game.
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 5: I also think the forty nine ers are gonna find
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 5: a way to win. I think it's gonna be a
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 5: little bit more high scoring because I do think the
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 5: Chiefs defense is eventually gonna wear out just a little bit.
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 5: So I'm thinking more twenty seven twenty one, forty nine
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 5: Ers get a last second score to really kind of
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 5: steal the deal. But I don't know. It's gonna be
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 5: an exciting game. It gonna be exciting halftime performance. Yeah, sure,
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 5: so sure, I'm excited about that. It's certainly gonna be good.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 5: And I think, like it's crazy because as decorated and
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 5: as amazing as Kyle Shanahan is, like, he hasn't won
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 5: a Super Bowl.
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: You gotta get it done.
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 5: He's got to get it done. He's technically oh and
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 5: two in the Super Bowl.
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 5: Ohen won as a head coach and then he was
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 5: also the oc Falcon, so we know how that turned out.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 9: I am my The main thing I want, honestly, what
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 9: I want is a high scoring, classic game that I
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 9: don't need to be worried about and not have a
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 9: dog in the fight.
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 9: But the past two Super Bowls, in my mind, have
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 9: been ruined by the refs. Fair and I mean, we
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 9: had you like the Bengals Rams, they didn't call a
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 9: flag the whole game, they called them last drive, and
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 9: then they just ruined the game last year with that
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 9: nippicky call. So yeah, just there be ref issues all year,
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 9: and I just don't want them to ruin a great game.
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and you know what, that's I think that's what
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 5: everyone is hoping for. I know nobody really wanted this
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 5: Super Bowl matchup, but I think it's going to be
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 5: high scoring. I hope it's really best team wins. But
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 5: we'll step to see what happens. And thank you for
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 5: letting me host. Today is the last one I'll probably try.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 3: To call in.
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 9: Yeah, thank you for helping get this this little show
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 9: off the ground.
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 1: We're gonna miss you.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 4: But all right, we want to we want to wrap
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 4: it up.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 5: It's been fun, it's been real. Let's get back to
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 5: pictures and filtered.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 18: When someone accidentally threw away the school play costumes, oh no,
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 18: replacements were shipped with FedEx and with picture proof of delivery,
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 18: everyone could focus on the perfect opening night FedEx Where
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 18: now it's next for residential delivery only.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 3: And now great moments in.
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 4: History they had.
• 1:07:18

• 1:07:20

• 1:07:23
  Speaker 3: Now, it's now, it's now.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 19: It's definitely a thing. No, but all I saw, I
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 19: mean I saw like Meghan had like one hundred scream screaming,
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 19: but they had just won. Like what is she supposed
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 19: to put to the.
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 1: Library face face face like just shing Freud.
• 1:07:43

  Speaker 1: Not the as I said, shoden Freud.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 3: He went over to many he said in two different ways.
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 3: Neither one of them was correct. Shotting fucking all.

• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: the email address. Let's go to Scott and Wellesley, shall
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 1: we Scott Scott.
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 13: Hey, guys, how are you good?
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 1: By Scott Hey.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 12: Two questions that you guys. Number one, an l a Wolf,
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 12: like you know, it seems like he's the guy who's
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 12: running things out. I was wondering why there's no clarification
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 12: on that. And are you guys concerned? I mean, he's
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 12: been employed during these bad drafts. Are we supposed to
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 12: assume that Elliot Wolf had all these great ideas and
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 12: other scouts had all these great ideas and Bill just
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 12: overruled him and everything was Bill's fault.
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 1: Yes, we're supposed to assume that.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 12: Yeah, yes, you are you guys aware, like you know,
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 12: anything that picks maybe the Elliott might be offensive offensive
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 12: direction that he made.
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 1: Going, that's a good it's a good question.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 3: That's a great question. I don't have anything.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 4: I was doing a great bit before the show.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 6: Or it was just like Christian bumber mine cold strengths
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 6: that was built, that was built, that was built, you know,
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 6: like Tom tug.
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 4: Mine mine DeMaria Tuglas was mine.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 5: Right right?
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 1: Not mine?
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 4: Not mine? No, that's a that's a great question. I
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 4: mean I think that's uh, it just.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 12: Seems like it seems like, you know, he's been here
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 12: for a little while. You think you haven't you think
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 12: people if he was in fact, let's just say he
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 12: didn't want to pick Ni Kila, Harry or Strange or
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 12: Juwan Williams or whoever, you know, all these guys.
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 13: Yeah, somehow you know about that, and so I'm hereous.
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 3: Just the other question, Well, we didn't.
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 1: Hear anything before you go on, Before you go on
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: from this particular subject. We don't hear any specifics. But
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 1: we have heard of Bill overruling his scouts. We have
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: heard that, but Harry is the one that Yeah, but
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: nothing specific. Yeah, go ahead, Scott.
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 8: The other question I had for you.
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 12: Guys is about Beth Jones. I mean everyone, you know,
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 12: everyone's doing the Bombardi impression. You know, I realized he
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 12: has was I realized he's not very good, but nobody
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 12: was set up for failure or the mis guy for
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 12: all the reasons that you guys know. Do you think
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 12: there's any chance he could go somewhere else and be
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 12: kind of like a Jim Blunkett Part two where he
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 12: basically leaves the Patriots not really that strong arms, but
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 12: maybe he goes around, gets some weapons and he could
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 12: be a useful quarterback in the NFL.
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 4: I would say my useful would be would top out
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 4: at like a backup that maybe would come in and
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 4: play some games for it. I don't really see him
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 4: ever being a long term.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 3: Stat I mean, I think he could be useful for
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 3: a bad team as the starter, but I don't think
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 3: he could be Jim Plunket.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And then you know again, part of his issue
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: isn't just the tangible physical stuff, leadership qualities.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 3: And that's part of the whole thing. Yeah. I do
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 3: think he had a lot of things stacked against him,
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 3: and I think he handled them all extremely poorly.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: Thanks Scot, appreciate the car.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 3: There are very few perfect scenarios like San Francisco, right,
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 3: they have the great roster around the quarterback, whoever the
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 3: quarterback is. Now, the problem is it's considered this quarterback
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 3: proof system that Shanahan is pretty tough to play for
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 3: in this easy quarterback system. So even that where they
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 3: have a lot of talent and supposedly the reads are
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 3: straightforward and they make it easy for the quarterback, and
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 3: a lot of average quarterbacks have looked better than average,
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 3: you know, under that system. But he's tough to play for.
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 3: So even in a good situation like that, there's there
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 3: are flaws too.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 1: We had some trivia at halftime, did we.
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, just let's go me and you. What was the
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 3: average rings outside Tommy Gunn.
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 1: What was the average ticket price for the first ever
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl?
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 4: Oh, boy, Deuce, I'm gonna say eighteen dollars.
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 3: Well, I'm going to say fifty dollars.
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 1: Twelve twelve dollars, Mike.
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 4: Circle square unless it was Jeopardy rules in that you
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 4: were no Jeopardy.
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: And I hear like the average price right now now
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 1: it's like six grand, seven grand.
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 4: Oh boy, I wish I had done it.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 3: But face value, the average price is seven grand.
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 3: Wow, yeah, like I think I think rockets. Oh one,
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 3: I want to say my ticket was two fifty.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, because the nine to eleven. Was that anything to
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 4: do with it?
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 3: I don't think so.
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember I think Houston, mine was twelve hundred bucks.
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 3: Well, you and then you ended up getting you know,
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 3: remember you guys had decoration tickets. No no, no, don't
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 3: be don't be still, you got super boring. But you
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 3: get a ticket and the price of the ticket is loll.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: Oh, it tells you.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 3: Now we did get a complimentary I think we get
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 3: two red and iye, wow.
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 1: Well we did because we were working. If you just
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: got flown down. But you got one for you, one ticket,
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 1: But we got one for ourselves, right.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 3: Right, one for yourself and you and I got one
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 3: for ourselves and one for whoever we wanted.
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 1: Right, but you were in the press box.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 4: You got to so we know.
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 3: So we didn't need it.
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: We never needed it.
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 3: That gave us too, That gave us two, got right,
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 3: be tough choice.

  Speaker 3: like chicken tenders.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 4: That's what it's all about. It's about the food. I
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 4: don't know what's the.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 3: Game we'll have. We'll have a good amount of family
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 3: on both sides. I think my parents are coming.
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 1: That's a big party.
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 3: That's great, not that big. I don't think TJ's got
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 3: the rolodecks that will did, so it'll probably only be
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 3: about ten of TJ's.
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 4: You've probably got a lift too.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 3: I mean, like it used to get to the point
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 3: where it's like everybody was downstairs and like all the
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 3: quote unquote adults would be upstairs. But I would get
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 3: stuck downstairs and like sitting on the floor at my
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 3: own house.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 4: The disrespect.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: Uh would you yell at the kids, Paul make fun
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 1: of them?
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, he's just yelling at the refs, like during
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 4: the game.
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 3: I try not to do that. I try not to
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 3: be my normal self watching a game because like my
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 3: in law, my mother in law, Will, its kind of
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 3: like rolling there he goes again.
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 1: It's like Will no Will.
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 3: What Will does is the opposite. He he wants to
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 3: see if he can get me to it on.
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: I don't know that I like it.
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 3: Dad, Like Marcus Smart's pretty good today, you know, smile
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 3: one of those things.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 1: Uh, Nicks in New Jersey? What's up? Nick? Hey?
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 10: Hey, hey, hey, So I just had a quick one
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 10: for you guys.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 11: With March thirteenth coming up around the corner here for
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 11: the next season. I just wanted to know a couple
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 11: of names that you're that you're looking for the Patriots
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 11: to resign and then also some free agents and maybe
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 11: like three and three free agents to bring in and
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 11: some new guys to resign.
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, resign. I don't it's not really a resign,
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: but I want an extension of in a redo of
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 1: Christian barm War right now.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I'd say that I would like I'd like
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 6: to retain Hunter Henry. I think that's you know, there's
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 6: just there's nothing out there really for tight ends on
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 6: the market.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 4: Maybe Dalton Schultz.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 6: You could you could talk me into swapping Hunter Henry
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 6: for Dalton Schultz maybe, but there's just nothing, Like I mean,
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 6: you need a body there, you need an NFL starter.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 6: He's one of the only ones even in the draft.
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 6: It's really hard to do.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 3: You want to pay Henry as little as possible.
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he disagrees with you.
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, no, I mean it's but you know, look,
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 6: it's it's kind of thing where you'd love to you
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 6: know maybe. I mean, there's just not a way to
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 6: see getting an impact tight end in the draft right away.
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 4: So just what are you going to do?
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 5: You know?
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 4: And another thing I noted too was.
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 6: Uh, you know, Farah Brown had some experience in Cleveland,
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 6: so these coaching staff is has some familiarity with him.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 6: It's just, you know, general, you need some bodies there
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 6: at the position. I'm I'm probably alone on this. I
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 6: could I could take it or leave it with him.
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 6: When you Doug I was gonna say, what about on
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 6: when you I'm take it or.
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 3: Leave it with him, because like if I would, I
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 3: would resign one.
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because let's just say you get a tackle, you know,
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 1: not necessarily Joe all, but you get a good tackle
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 1: in the second round or something like that. Having on
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: when you there too is you know, now you're you know,
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 1: if Andrews plays again, you're gonna you've got.
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 3: But that's only if he wants to play tackle.
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 4: Right and when you yeah, and I think you could
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 4: do better.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: You don't think you could get a right tackle later
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: in the draft or something.
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 3: No, No, I'm saying if you if you're retaining a
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 3: when you to play tackle while you have the rookie
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 3: play the other side, Yeah, that's great if as long
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 3: as the one you wants to play tackle he kind
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 3: of has said he doesn't, so you did it because
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 3: he had.
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 1: You wouldn't want to sign him if he wants to
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: play guard, I'm not as I.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 4: Just think that's where he's best, Like I want him
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 4: to play at his best position.
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 3: I would I would resign him. I said that at
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 3: the beginning, Like the one guy you know out of
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 3: all of them, you know, I think dogger, you could
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 3: make an argument for and in a WHENU those two
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 3: theo's the only two that I'm really interested in. But
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 3: I would be more interested in the when you play
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 3: in guard than tackle because I don't really think he
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 3: wants to play tackle, and I don't think he's a
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 3: great tackle. I think I think he's a good guard.
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 3: So you resign him at guard money, okay, But I
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 3: would like if again, I would resign them because I
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 3: think that they need to have at some point they
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 3: need to draft guys and then resign them, like and
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 3: they haven't done that consistently in a long time, so
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 3: I would resign them. But like if they lose them Fred,
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's like a kind of an old school
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 3: Patriot philosophy of I just drafted four guys in the
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 3: last two years that for interior offensive line, Like I
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 3: can get by with some combination of strange. So Mafi
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 3: Jake Andrews, you know, in David Andrews, I have five
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 3: guys to play three spots.
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 4: That's where I am.
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 3: That's where I am.
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 4: I just I think you could do better at right
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 4: tackle than mikeel Win. You and you know it's you.
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 6: I mean, I don't know exactly what they think of city.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 6: But he played, he looked okay, and I'm fine with
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 6: you know, and it keeps drawing the comparisons, like, don't
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 6: let these guys get away. I think Michael when he
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 6: was fine, But like I just think you need to
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 6: recalibrate things a little bit.
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 4: I don't know. I just I don't think he's I
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 4: don't think he's the best you can do.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: Attack.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 3: I think offensive lineman, I really do. I think people
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 3: that you know.
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 4: Put that money towards his tackle.
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 6: You know, just some other names that I've kind of
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 6: jotted down a couple of other running backs just to
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 6: throw out there, Paul, because I did have Eckler down
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 6: on my little short list. But Tony Poulard, Denvan Singletary,
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 6: DeAndre Swift were a few.
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 6: Calvin Ridley, I think they should take a shot at him,
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 6: Curtis Samuels at least free agents.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 3: That just guy I would go after. That's a big
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 3: that's a big ticket item.
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 4: Big fish. Jonathan Greenard from Houston. I liked him coming
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 4: out of the draft.
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 6: I just think you need you need an edge, you
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 6: need some kind of front seven presents that that you
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 6: bring in.
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're getting a little long in the tooth for sure.
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 16: For sure.
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 6: And then just on the back end with like Dougar,
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 6: you know, do they say, look, we want to go
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 6: a little bit more of the free safety route. We
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 6: don't want to have three strong safeties that we're playing.
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 6: We want to keep Peppers in there. He's under contract.
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 6: He's only I think like six months older than Dougars,
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 6: So you're kind of talking about the same guy. But
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 6: you know a few guys Avery McKinney, Jordan Fuller, Cameron Curl,
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 6: Jeremy Chin, Jeremy Chin, more of a strong safety type,
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 6: but just a freew free safety types that hey, let's
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 6: get some range and some speed on the back end
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 6: to compliment Peppers. We're not going to be, you know,
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 6: as crazy with the strong type end strong safety compliment Peppers.
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 4: My god, you know anybody else?
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 1: How about.
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 3: I know it's not a good class.
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 4: No I had.
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 6: I had Jonah Williams on there. I know a lot
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 6: of people have kind of can you know, considering him.
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 6: But he's another one that you know, was a left tackle,
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 6: couldn't really play there.
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 4: They moved him to right tackle.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 6: But you know, I think that's a better investment than
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 6: you know saying when you were gonna Jeff right, and
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 6: I would I would consider Kenny Moore too, just as
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 6: a slot guy, you know, a little bit older. Not
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 6: don't love it, but I just I think the slot
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 6: position unless you bring Miles Bryant back and you know,
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 6: like McConkie, McConkie.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 3: Talking about I know you're going to play cornerback too,
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 3: but he probably could.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 6: But Kenny Moore, good little you know, slot player, just
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 6: as a you know, compliment to Jonathan Jones or or
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 6: you know, are you still in love with Jonathan Jones
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 6: moving into the slot on third down and then you
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 6: just get another outside guide that to kind of compliment him.
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 3: He's talking about defense, well he's talking about he's talking
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 3: about Kenny Moore and you mconkie, well, I just I
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 3: just think listeners, I don't want to.
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 1: I don't want to. I looked up from the emails
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 1: and I heard.
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 4: Slot and he just mconkie, he mccakey did.
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 1: L from Wisconsin. It must be really nice to be
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 1: fred and have full faith that everything they do is
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 1: the right thing.
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 3: I want to defend you in Yeah, I don't think
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 3: you've been like that.
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 6: I mean, I just think there's a baseline of where
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 6: we're starting over, especially on the offensive side of the ball.
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 4: Like you can look at it any way you want
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 4: to look at it, like I choose to go in
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 4: with Hope.
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, like these guys are no good
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 1: because they're not all Kyle Sham. I'm sorry. You know,
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 1: there's only one of him, and he's not available, and
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 1: so we've got to do what we can do.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 6: I realized part of the thing with Ben maculdo that
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 6: that just kind of rubs me the wrong ways. He
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 6: looks way too much like the principal from Ferris Bueller's
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 6: Day Off. Yea, Like, I just I can't unsee that
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 6: every time I look at him, it looks like.
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 1: I don't know why any guy would have a mustang,
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 1: mister Rooney, What is the thing with mustaches?
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 5: Rooney?
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 1: You know, ladies like him, friend, Ladies like mustaches.
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 4: It's a flavor saver.
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 1: And I you know, I kind of know the joke there,
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 1: what's behind that, but I'm not going to say it.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: Let's see, Tim writes in Love the Show, With all
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 1: of these packer guys now on our staff, do you
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 1: think DeVante Adams could be in play this offseason. I
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if we see some former Packers on
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 1: the team next year.
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 4: No, I mean he's not available, is he?
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 3: Who?
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 1: DeVante Adams from the Raiders.
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 3: No, he just won his power struggle. We've got the coaches.
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's too Babishan Gary resigned with cream Bay. I
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 4: would have taken him.
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 1: Let's see, Alex, who's this? I don't know. Somebody hasn't
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 1: received their T shirt from the trivia?
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 3: What good job?
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 1: Alex? Matt is so mad from North Carolina? Yeah?
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 4: Did you put posterage on it?
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 5: Now?
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 4: Did you put it in a bag?
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 1: And in the context of the post Belichick era beginning,
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 1: this is from Dan and Lynchburg. I put together a
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 1: quick over undergame uh number one number of bro hugs
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: in the Patriots war room visible on the TV broadcast
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 1: during the draft under two and.
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 3: A hey over these are good Dan, Dan?
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 5: Got it?
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 3: Guy? Yeah? Yeah?
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 1: Over number of long snappers whose average annual contract value
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 1: will exceed Joe Cardona's in twenty twenty four. He's currently
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 1: ranked third over under two and a hey.
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 3: Under those days are all under those days are.
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 4: The long snapper market is expled loading?
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and number of twenty twenty four undrafted UFL oh
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 1: UFL wins A team would have with Bill as a
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 1: head coach, Josh McCanns oci and Jimmy g at quarterback.
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 1: Each team plays ten games, so this is the new
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 1: UFL spring Ley.
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 4: Oh Jimmy G. They probably do some damage. He has
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 4: over under nine and a hay how many games do
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 4: they play?
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 5: Ten?
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 1: I just said it. Yeah, the first question was a
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 1: real good one.
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 3: I swear there's gonna be a new sheriff in town.
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 3: It's gonna be different.
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 6: I would love to just see Bill coach high school
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 6: football for the year and make a TV show about it.
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 4: I think that that would just be hilarious.
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 6: Like I mean and like that kind of like the
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 6: comedy of it, all of like all these kids, like
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 6: bra you know, and like Bill having a deal with
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 6: like all of the kids.
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 3: Bill coaching tj oh my god, that would be so fun.
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 4: Jill, I got that drizz bro.
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 1: Look at that riz.
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 3: He guys a little pancake thing. Coach, did you see that?
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you're needing person have just.
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 1: Blocked the phones, but you know what, you know what,
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 1: Belichick wouldn't have to worry about parents?
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 4: Oh God, right.
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 1: Can you imagine a parent complaining, you know, my kid
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 1: doesn't play enough, or you wouldn't have to worry about that.
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 3: You're a little bit removed from this. Yeah, he absolutely
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 3: would deal with that if you like, can't think.
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 1: They wouldn't care that it's Bill Belichick.
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, he might not have to deal with why did
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 3: you run the ball because people would probably step back
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 3: and say, Bill probably knows more about football than me.
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 3: But if little Johnny's not playing and.
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 4: He just lays into Little Johnny when little Johnny can't run,
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 4: I mean he can't pass.
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 3: If little Johnny's not playing and little Johnny's dad thinks
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 3: he should be, he's telling Bill Belichick, I will guarantee.
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 4: You Nantucket too, a lot of Nantucket parents.
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 1: Oh, Tom and Chicago. As I think about roster construction,
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 1: there are so many ways to approach this thing. I'm
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 1: fully aware that it's going to take two or three
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 1: years to really be competing for championships. Besides quarterback, O
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 1: line of wide receiver, how important you see running back,
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 1: tight end? The list of priorities we just talked about
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 1: that tight end is much higher up. Running Back Blake
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 1: Korham from Michigan is someone who would be great as
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 1: a mid round pick. But I also understand you can
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 1: solve the running back spots in lots of different ways.
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 3: I like Blake. Yeah, And I think you know, late
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 3: day two, early day three, sure.
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 4: You probably just don't. Off the top of your head.
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 4: I was watching an Oregon kid running back.
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 3: He was I forget his name, but I know he's
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 3: number seven if I'm not mistaken.
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm blanking on his name right now.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 3: But see, that's my problem is I watch guys and
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 3: then I forget their names, and I just because I don't.
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 3: I mean, in fairness, I don't care that much, but
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 3: there are guys that catch my eye and I'm like, oh,
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 3: I like that that the skills that can Yeah, the
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 3: UNH translate.
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 4: The un H kid looked pretty good at the Senior
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 4: Police Jersey.
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 1: Love them Chad in Atlanta, so I've heard grumbling that
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 1: Ben McAdoo has a keen eye for quarterbacks.
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 3: Not sure how true it is, but very true.
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 1: Apparently the Giants tried trading up from Mahomes via mcado's suggestion,
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 1: and he also was on record saying he thought Josh
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: Allen is far and away the best quarterback in his draft.
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 3: He thought the guy that went seven should have gone won.
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: So it would seem his evaluation for quarterbacks is pretty
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 1: pretty Not sure how we would take that, maybe with
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 1: a grain of salt, but it does give me hope
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 1: that they now have legit help in choosing the right
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 1: guy at quarterback if he's in the draft.
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 6: I mean, I think they've got I mean, I don't
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 6: know what you know, Ben mcadoo's doing or you know,
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 6: but I just I think they've got a lot of
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 6: voices that will.
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 1: Well, here's the thing, chime in what I want them
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 1: to do. I'm going to make a suggestion and I'll
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 1: send it to football Right now, Ben McAdoo has to
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 1: put who he thinks is good in an envelope. We'll
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 1: steal it out and then we'll open it up next year.
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 1: Because none of this twenty twenty hindsight stuff.
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 8: No.
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 3: Well, I will say that I did a little research
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 3: on some of that stuff, and the is it seventeen
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 3: Josh Allen draft? Was that twenty seventeen Baker Mayfield number
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 3: one overall? Okay, let's just say whatever. That year was
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 3: the year that Mayfield went one, Josh Allen went seven.
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 3: It was either seventeen or eighteen. I think it was
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 3: seventeen whatever.
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 1: He was.
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 3: Extensively quoted in a New York Post I think article
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 3: in July. So the draft happened in April and in July.
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 3: So this is before they've played, and he said he
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 3: had Josh Allen won, Lamar Jackson two, Baker Mayfield was
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 3: six out of his quarterbacks. Now he was wrong on Mayfield,
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 3: but the other two he had one two Josh Allen,
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 3: Jan Jackson. And that was before they played, so that's
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 3: not fraudulent. You know, it was after the draft, but
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 3: it was before they had taken an NFL snap. So
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 3: just you know, I mean, as Fred likes to say,
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 3: I'll give him as flowers. Yeah, but like he that
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 3: absolutely was an accurate thing. Now he had Mason Rudolph
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 3: over Baker Mayfield. Like that one probably didn't come out
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 3: Josh Rosen, I think, oh, Jeff in Canada, oh yeah,
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 3: we just gloss over those. I worry about the Craft
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 3: family exceptions. I know they own this show and they've
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 3: been amazing owners. I'm just concerned that they'll want to
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 3: get back to the playoffs asap, which sounds good, but
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 3: I question.
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 1: If it really is the right plan. One of the
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: sixteen teams in the AFC, we're in the bottom quarter.
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 1: We are not close to competing for a spot. Oh,
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 1: of the sixteen teams, I'm sorry. In the AFC, we're
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 1: in the bottom quarter. We're not close to competing for
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 1: a spot in the super Bowl. So my hope, my
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 1: hope is Wolf and Mayo don't reach and push for things,
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 1: be smart about it, focus on being really competitive in
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six season.
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 3: Oh, you have to look at it that way anyway.
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 1: If the quarterback is there, take him. But if he isn't,
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 1: be comfortable trading back and getting a more sure thing.
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 1: Don't sign any free agents over twenty eight years old,
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 1: because they're not going to be peaking when you're ready
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 1: to compete in twenty twenty six. When does the panel
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 1: honestly believe this team would be ready to compete to
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 1: be the AFC representative for the Super Bowl.
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 4: When they have a quarterback that can compete with Josh
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 4: Allen and Joe Burrow and Patrick Mahomes. I think that's
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 4: the waiting point, you know, and there's no easy way
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 4: to get It's everything Paul was saying about mccadoo having
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 4: an eye for court, like it's great.
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 1: I mean like if somehow they got Caleb Williams and
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 1: everything that people on Paul's side of the streets say
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 1: are true about him, then they could compete next year.
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, and I think, like I expect I don't.
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 3: Mean twenty title.
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 1: I don't mean twenty twenty four. I mean twenty twenty five.
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 4: Uh huh okay, yeah, I mean I just I think
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 4: that they should be competitive.
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 4: I don't know if they're going to compete for titles,
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 4: but they should be competitive. I don't think when by
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 4: this year. I think they should be competitive.
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 6: Like, you know, twenty twenty one I don't think was
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 6: a great team. I thought that team was competitive. They
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 6: had their holes. But you know, if you can get
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 6: a team that all plays kind of hard and you
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 6: can you know, win six seven games at least if
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 6: you know that kind of thing. I'm just saying competitive,
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 6: you know, Like, yeah, I mean it's not like this year.
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 3: They were competitive last year because I mean, as much
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 3: as I make fun of it, they did have a
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 3: lot of close games.
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, But I don't know. I don't really feel they
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 4: were all that competitive last year. I think. I mean,
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 4: we watched the.
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 3: Games, I agree, but if we're just saying six or
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 3: seven wins.
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, almost double r up.
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 1: Competitive means, you know, the last week of December, you're
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 1: either in the playoffs or fighting for a spot, and
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 1: you have a chance to win a game.
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 3: But the emailers talking about a lot more than that,
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 3: the els talking about competing for a title. Yeah, And
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 3: I think there's a huge difference between twenty twenty one Patriots.
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 3: To Mike's point that he just made in competing for
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 3: a title, I would.
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 4: Agree, and I think that that.
• 1:33:51
  Speaker 6: But you know, twenty twenty one is the model for
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 6: as we continue to test stack talent and these guys develop.
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 6: You know, it's not like we got a bunch of
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 6: free agents and this might be the pinnacle of what
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 6: this team looks like in this kind of because that's
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 6: what it was, right And I'll.
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 3: Tell you the big difference to me from twenty twenty
• 1:34:06
  Speaker 3: one to now is these teams are better. Like you
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 3: had two cupcakes over the Jets that you do not
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 3: have anymore. They are they're further in that rebuilding thing
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 3: than you are. Now. Again, are they competing for a title?
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 3: Probably not unless Aaron Rodgers comes back and is Aaron Rodgers,
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 3: you know, like they have because they have the same
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 3: problem that you're going to have. And that's why the
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 3: whole idea of don't reach for the quarterback, just take
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 3: a good player later. That's great. I would totally agree,
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 3: but at some point, if you don't get the quarterback,
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 3: it's not gonna matter. You're gonna be the Jets. And
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 3: again we've gone over the picks that the Jets have
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 3: made in the last three four drafts. They've had some
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 3: really high end hits. Sauce Gardner, Garrett Wilson, Elijah Vera,
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 3: Tucker quinnin way, I they have some really good players.
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 3: And I even think, is it Jermaine Johnson, Yeah, pro bowler, right,
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 3: like pro Bowl whatever, But he's a pretty good player
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 3: into the first round, like they eat a Hall, you know,
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 3: br Breese Hall another one. Yeah, No, I mean, I
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 3: like if they don't have a quarterback, so they're not
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 3: a threat to do anything.
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 4: I just think if you don't get the quarter if
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 4: you don't get a quarterback in this draft, or at
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 4: least you don't get one in the first two days
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 4: that you know you like, otherwise you're taking a flyer.
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 4: It's like, at least I want to come out of
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 4: this year feeling like the pieces are in place, and
• 1:35:32
  Speaker 4: when you know, we have a tackle. Now, we've got
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 4: a good wide receipt. You know, we got Pop Douglass
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 4: and this other guy who are That's what I'm you know,
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 4: and you're like, look, the table is set. I don't
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 4: know when we know how they're gonna do it next year,
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 4: but I like the general sentiment of the email, and
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 4: I think that's what goes into why we all kind
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 4: of feel like if they had the trade down, you know,
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 4: messing around with some of the mock drafts, it's it's
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 4: amazing what you can do with an extra day two pick.
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 6: I mean, just how much one extra pick in those
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 6: two rounds, how much flexibility it offers you.
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 4: Then, other than just having one two three for that league, you.
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 3: Can get good quickly. It doesn't have to be three
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 3: four year projects. You can get good quickly. If you
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 3: just have to be good, you have to hit good
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 3: at the draft.
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 1: I mean Tony from Hampton Virginia. I have a worry
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 1: about getting Green Bay's twenty ten island a misfit toys?
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 1: Do we think getting this band back together is the
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 1: right answer to build upon? Maybe the sum is greater
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 1: than the individual parts. Why has Justin Fields talked about
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 1: as a top fifty fifty trade prospect? I see him
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 1: no different than Mac or Zach Wilson. You take away
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 1: his running and he's worse than those two legs go
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 1: out after five to six years, So you wouldn't You
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 1: shouldn't be building a team thinking he's always going to
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 1: be a runner. I wouldn't give away more than a
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 1: six round pick for Fields. I guess this is a
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 1: lot of propaganda by Chicago.
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 3: I disagree. Hold on now, I'm not telling you I
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 3: would make a trade for Justin Fields. But he's a
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 3: better passer than you're giving him credit for. Even though
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 3: he's a work in progress, he's far better than Zach
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 3: Wilson and Mac Jones were last year. I'm not talking
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 3: about all three years, but in twenty three he was
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 3: far better than those other two last year, both as
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 3: a passer and a runner. Lamar Jackson doesn't seem to
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 3: be slowing down by the way, as a runner, do
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 3: you think he's about to win his second MVP tonight?
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 5: Right?
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 3: Is that tonight?
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 4: Tonight?
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 1: Tonight? Yeah?
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 6: And it's more about it's more about being like Mahomes,
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 6: you know. To me, it's more about escaping and having like, look,
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 6: when he.
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 3: Needs to go, his legs don't seem to be given out.
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 3: And there is a guy who's dealt with a lot
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 3: of injuries.
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 4: And never and never a guy that has an explosive burst.
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 6: But you know, like, you don't necessarily need to be
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 6: lamar fast to be an effective runner as a quarterback,
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 6: you know, and even as you get older, like it,
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 6: Fields is just smart and can learn to pick a spots.
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 6: I mean, I'm kind of generally the same. I don't
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 6: love reclamation projects, but certainly not in the first I'm
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 6: not making two rounds of the draft. I wouldn't trade
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 6: those picks.
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 3: For just I'm not making a move for Justin Fields
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 3: and then thinking check that's done. No, that's a roll
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 3: of the dice, Like, can I maybe get a guy
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 3: who's a little bit closer to being ready than someone
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 3: I'm going to draft? Like, if you add your choice
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 3: between Jayden and Daniels and Justin Fields. I would say
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 3: the ceiling for Jayden Daniels is probably higher because you
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 3: haven't seen him play yet, right, But the floor might
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 3: be higher with Justin Fields because he's got three years
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 3: of the stuff that he can't do to fall back on.
• 1:38:34
  Speaker 3: Maybe he gets better and he starts at a higher
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 3: level and maybe he can be good, and then if
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 3: Daniels doesn't work out, you have the better player. But
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 3: I agree with you if they want that draft pick,
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 3: because you're picking so high in the round, I'm not
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 3: interested in probably the second round either. It would be
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 3: a third rounder for me too. But I certainly don't think.
• 1:38:53
  Speaker 3: Do you think red like if you had Justin Fields
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 3: like that solves your quarterback issue?
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 1: It could, yeah, but you feel like it did. I
• 1:39:02
  Speaker 1: don't know.
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 3: I honestly, Yeah, I'm with you. I think there's a
• 1:39:05
  Speaker 3: there's a lot of unknown.
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Arthur's in New York. What's up Arthur?
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 12: And it has to go in guys.
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 20: I wanted to go back to something spread was sorry
• 1:39:15
  Speaker 20: Paul was talking about earlier about the offensive lineman and
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 20: potentially walking down a tackle in the draft. But I
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 20: just think that it's kind of like a notion that
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 20: if you take a tackle early, he's a lock.
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 12: To be a stud.
• 1:39:28
  Speaker 3: No bike if you take I never said, I know,
• 1:39:31
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying.
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 20: I'm saying in general like this is like, oh, let's
• 1:39:34
  Speaker 20: just take Joe all.
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 10: We know he's going to be good.
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I do not subscribe to that theory.
• 1:39:39
  Speaker 20: Yeah, but like when I think about like these tackles
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 20: going super high in the draft, I remember the twenty thirteen.
• 1:39:43
  Speaker 12: Draft with Eric Fisher and Luke jokel.
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 20: Yeah, we're fighting over you know, who's going to go
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 20: higher there. So I think, really there's no safe pick,
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 20: whether it's receiver or tight end. So I think you've
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 20: got to go after the quarterback. And I've called in
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 20: before talking about how much I love Jayden Daniels, but
• 1:39:59
  Speaker 20: I wanted to drop a the stats to show how
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 20: explosive he truly is.
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 3: Can you can you can you do me a favorite
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 3: and not do that?
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we got we have other calls to do. But you, Arthur,
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 1: you have been very good and make.
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 3: You hang up on him. I would just say, like
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna play the same the same thing, Like I
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 3: don't understand because there's no guarantees. You got to take
• 1:40:19
  Speaker 3: the quarterback. No, which one do you think is the
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 3: best guarantee? Like, I don't I don't want to just
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 3: take quarterback because tackles bust too. I want to take
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 3: a quarterback if I think the quarterback is good.
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 1: Who's the best guy on the board.
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 3: And if they if they think of Daniels the way
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 3: Arthur thinks of Daniels, I want them to take Daniels.
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 3: If that's how they feel about Jayden Daniels, then take
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 3: them absolutely.
• 1:40:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, thanks Arthur.
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 3: But I don't need stats in college like to tell
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 3: me the guy's good. I know he's good. You won
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 3: the Heisman. I know he's great, Arthur.
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he's Jaden Daniels Asian or but
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 1: he should be.
• 1:40:52
  Speaker 3: I mean seriously, like he just won the Heisman Trophy.
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 3: He just had a phenomenal season. He had like six
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 3: hundred yards in one of the games. We know he
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 3: was very productive in college. I think we all know
• 1:41:03
  Speaker 3: that Matt's in Virginia Beach.
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 1: What's up? What's up, Matt?
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 15: Hey, how's everybody doing today?
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 1: Good?
• 1:41:10
  Speaker 3: Good man?
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 15: I just had a quick question. We've been talking a
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 15: lot about offense. I like to shift gears to defense,
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 15: and uh, just ask you guys, it's a guy like
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 15: Chase Young, if he were to make it the free agency,
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 15: how willing would you be to take a look at
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 15: him and bringing him in you know, he's a wonder
• 1:41:27
  Speaker 15: to prove it deal or longer term contract.
• 1:41:30
  Speaker 1: I think that to me, the thought of Chase Young
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 1: is better than the player like he makes plays.
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 3: I'm just curious why why that should be a guy
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 3: that you're interested.
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's consistent.
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 3: There's a prime of his career, Yeah.
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 1:41:43
  Speaker 6: I was doing some research on him, and a lot
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 6: of what I've read have kind of backed up the
• 1:41:47
  Speaker 6: things that we heard of kind of play when he
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 6: wants to play and one of those kind of guys.
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 4: So those things a little scary to me.
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 3: Do you think he's as good as people think? I
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 3: think what he wants to be, Yeah, I mean, if
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 3: he is, then I would put.
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 4: In But I don't know.
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 6: I just again trying to rebuild culture, trying to you know,
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 6: bring in guys that are on the uptick. I would never,
• 1:42:07
  Speaker 6: you know, shoot down a flyer on a guy like that,
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 6: but to give him a big thing of money, and
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 6: you know, I'd rather go that kind of like greener
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 6: direction of you know, somebody who's a little bit more
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 6: of an all around player.
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 3: Now, if you don't you don't like the player, I totally,
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 3: I totally rep I respect that I would.
• 1:42:25
  Speaker 1: Take him, but like to make him, you know, the
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 1: big free agent priority.
• 1:42:29
  Speaker 3: No, yeah, because you don't think he's that good.
• 1:42:31
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's worth the money.
• 1:42:32
  Speaker 5: No.
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not disagreeing with either one of you. Honestly,
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 3: I'm letting you guys fight that one out. Yeah, I
• 1:42:41
  Speaker 3: mean I I've seen in San Francisco that sort of
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 3: taking plays off kind of thing. Well, you don't notice
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 3: him for a quarter and then all of a sudden,
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 3: he's all over the place.
• 1:42:49
  Speaker 4: Wasn't that what the Washington guy said to us?
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 3: But like, I don't, I don't hold the Washington thing
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 3: against him because.
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 4: He wanted to get out of there.
• 1:42:56
  Speaker 3: Right now, he's playing for a Super Bowl. Like, if
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 3: he's not motivated now as he's like one game away
• 1:43:02
  Speaker 3: from being a free agent trying to win a Super Bowl,
• 1:43:05
  Speaker 3: he ain't ever going to be motivated, all right in
• 1:43:07
  Speaker 3: that regard, I agree with you, speaking of Super Bowl.
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 1: I know we have more calls. Maybe we'll get to
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 1: them if we finish up here. But we do need
• 1:43:13
  Speaker 1: to get to the big game.
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 3: We really need fifteen minutes for that.
• 1:43:17
  Speaker 4: We might we'll see, can we say Super Bowl?
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 1: First we have to go over what the standings are
• 1:43:23
  Speaker 1: going into the big game.
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 3: Okay, so last week we all went one and one.
• 1:43:30
  Speaker 3: I think I read these offs before with a spread.
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 3: Evan went two and oh and then the rest of
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 3: us were one and one. So the totals for the
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 3: playoffs are Fred eight and four. I'm sorry, Fred ten
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 3: and two. Yeah, thank you, Paul and Evan eight and four,
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 3: Mike seven and five, Alex six and six.
• 1:43:52
  Speaker 1: So I've won the playoffs.
• 1:43:54
  Speaker 3: That is right over, you have clinched it.
• 1:43:57
  Speaker 1: Unless we want to, you know, give more weight to
• 1:43:59
  Speaker 1: this game, like it's double or nothing or something. Anyway.
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 3: With the spread, Fred also leads, but he can he
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 3: can be caught, depending on I think I just using
• 1:44:08
  Speaker 3: my deductive reasoning, I think I'll have a chance to
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 3: catch him. Fred is eight and four, Paul and Evan
• 1:44:14
  Speaker 3: are seven and five. Mike and Alex have been eliminated
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 3: four and eight. At no point did that make any sense.
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 3: So now you're just playing for the dumber from having
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 3: heard that. Okay, may God have mercy on your soul.
• 1:44:27
  Speaker 1: All right. So now the Super Bowl Sunday at six
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 1: point thirty on CBS, Nickelodeon, Paramount plus.
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 3: Plus and Univision get a plus at AH so.
• 1:44:41
  Speaker 1: Various ways to watch. The twelve and five forty nine
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 1: Ers are the visiting team against the eleven and six Chiefs.
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 3: Theniners are favored by two two, And.
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 1: The Chiefs are taking this personally why because they they
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 1: think it's disrespectful. Oh the Chiefs.
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 5: No.
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 1: I thought the Chiefs are favorite. No, no, no, they're
• 1:45:06
  Speaker 1: a favorite. But the Chiefs are upset because they feel
• 1:45:10
  Speaker 1: they're disrespected.
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 3: I think Fred should win this because evidently he's the
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 3: only one paying attention to anything going up with this game.
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 6: I kind of haven either. It's hard to pick against
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 6: Patrick Mahomes. That's that's the hardest thing right now. I
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 6: think everybody is now just like kind of accepting that
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 6: he's really good and that he can single handedly, you know,
• 1:45:26
  Speaker 6: win win games.
• 1:45:27
  Speaker 4: With them, but not Patriots fans.
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 1: But I am.
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 6: I'm going to go with San Francisco in this game
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 6: just because and part of this, I'm going to tie
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 6: it back to the three podcast. You know, Bruski talked
• 1:45:37
  Speaker 6: a lot about learning how hard it is to play
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 6: defense in the Super Bowl and what a grind it is,
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 6: And I just think, over the course of a sixty
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 6: minute game that.
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 4: Is spread out over close to four hours, probably San
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 4: Francisco's weapons are just going to be too much. You
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 4: know that that they're gonna get going. They're going to
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 4: be the ones with the gas at the end.
• 1:45:54
  Speaker 6: And I think you got to respect the Chiefs, but
• 1:45:57
  Speaker 6: I think that in the end that just the overall
• 1:46:00
  Speaker 6: ount of weaponry that the forty nine ers have is
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 6: going to be the difference. So I'm going to take
• 1:46:03
  Speaker 6: the forty nine ers to win this game. I do
• 1:46:07
  Speaker 6: think it will be close, but I'm going to say
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 6: San Francisco twenty four Kansas City eighteen.
• 1:46:15
  Speaker 3: Do you have any picks from Alex or Evans?
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 4: I do Evan actually chiming in? This is from Evan directly.
• 1:46:21
  Speaker 4: I'm picking the Niners BT dub for my guy Kyle,
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 4: So I.
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 1: Don't even know what that means.
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 3: Kyle Kyle Shanahan fro offense dub. By the way, Oh
• 1:46:32
  Speaker 3: Jesus BT dubbs man.
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know if it was like Buffalo wow woe.
• 1:46:37
  Speaker 4: I was speaking slang. You know you got that Riz.
• 1:46:42
  Speaker 3: He goes Buffalo, So you have nothing from Alex.
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 1:46:50
  Speaker 1: Wow, she's just given up.
• 1:46:51
  Speaker 3: She's eliminated.
• 1:46:53
  Speaker 1: Exactly. Color finish. The race's South Beach, the race.
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 3: In South Beach.
• 1:46:59
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 4: I think she's in Miami.
• 1:47:01
  Speaker 3: It's good for her finish. So I am taking Kansas City.
• 1:47:07
  Speaker 1: Because I hate Patriots fans and that will make them upset.
• 1:47:11
  Speaker 3: It is kind of because of hatred, but you have
• 1:47:13
  Speaker 3: the wrong hatred. Kyle Shanahan, Yeah, I just think that
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 3: he is such a pompous, douche flame guy. I agree
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 3: with something Mike said. I think it's awfully hard for
• 1:47:25
  Speaker 3: me to sit back and think of Patrick Mahomes as
• 1:47:27
  Speaker 3: an underdog and bet against him. And I think the
• 1:47:31
  Speaker 3: Chiefs have sort of gotten something going offensively. I think
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 3: the Niners have not looked good in the postseason, so
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 3: it's not just a hope pick. I think the Niners
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 3: really played with a lot of fire and their two
• 1:47:44
  Speaker 3: playoff wins, and I think against Kansas City, if they
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 3: build that kind of a hole for themselves, they will
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 3: not climb out of it. So I think it will
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 3: be a little bit higher scoring. I think both defenses
• 1:47:55
  Speaker 3: are okay but not great, and I do think the
• 1:47:59
  Speaker 3: weapons on Sam Butacisco are great. And I think Patrick
• 1:48:02
  Speaker 3: Mahomes is great. So I'm going to take the Chiefs
• 1:48:04
  Speaker 3: thirty one to twenty seven.
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 1: Okay, this is a This has the makings of a
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 1: really good game, like whether or not you're just like
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 1: into the flash or into the substance of football. I
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 1: think everyone's going to be pleased by this game. There's
• 1:48:21
  Speaker 1: a lot of things we know. We know Mahomes is
• 1:48:23
  Speaker 1: a winner. We know he's going to play his best,
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 1: you know, and he's Patrick Mahomes. We know that the
• 1:48:30
  Speaker 1: Chiefs have also had trouble.
• 1:48:32
  Speaker 3: But he's against Brady.
• 1:48:34
  Speaker 4: What does that have to do with anything.
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 3: We know he's a winner. How do you call him
• 1:48:37
  Speaker 3: a Winter Fred?
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 1: Okay, But we also know that the Chiefs have been,
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 1: you know, struggling scoring points. That's a fact. That's a fact.
• 1:48:43
  Speaker 1: But we also know that the Chiefs defense has played
• 1:48:47
  Speaker 1: well enough to you know, keep them in games, and
• 1:48:50
  Speaker 1: Mahomes always does enough when it matters most. So we
• 1:48:53
  Speaker 1: know that on the other side of the ball. We
• 1:48:56
  Speaker 1: know that the forty nine ers have a collection of
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 1: hell on on offense that we haven't seen it a
• 1:49:02
  Speaker 1: long time. You know, maybe Miami is a little bit comparable,
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 1: but I mean it's just and you know, so that's
• 1:49:10
  Speaker 1: huge for them, and their defense is okay, it's not great.
• 1:49:13
  Speaker 1: The one thing we don't know in this game is
• 1:49:16
  Speaker 1: how Purdy's gonna be because he's never been there before.
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 1: And to me, that's the key. I you know, what
• 1:49:24
  Speaker 1: can Kansas City's defense do to force Purdy to be
• 1:49:28
  Speaker 1: the guy, because that's what I would be aiming to do.
• 1:49:31
  Speaker 1: Take McCaffrey out as much as we can make him
• 1:49:33
  Speaker 1: throw the ball, get after him, put him under pressure,
• 1:49:36
  Speaker 1: rattle him early. So that's the key. So you would say, okay,
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 1: so you're picking the Kansas City Chiefs.
• 1:49:43
  Speaker 3: No chance.
• 1:49:43
  Speaker 1: The problem is, I think I think the forty nine
• 1:49:47
  Speaker 1: ers have so much talent and Shanahan is a good
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 1: enough offensive mind that he's going to be able to adjust,
• 1:49:54
  Speaker 1: just like he did against the Ravens that second half,
• 1:49:57
  Speaker 1: they kind of ran away with it, even though in
• 1:49:59
  Speaker 1: the first half struggled. I think they think they have
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 1: so many answers to whatever Kansas City will throw at them.
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 1: The question is can pretty execute in this game in
• 1:50:12
  Speaker 1: the biggest of stages. That's the question. So if you
• 1:50:16
  Speaker 1: don't think he can, you're picking the Chiefs. I think
• 1:50:18
  Speaker 1: he'll do enough to be able to, you know, with
• 1:50:22
  Speaker 1: his cast of characters. I think he'll end up winning
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 1: thirty one twenty four, it's going to be forty.
• 1:50:29
  Speaker 4: Nine ersty party comes through.
• 1:50:32
  Speaker 3: Sorry, I thought I would have a chance.
• 1:50:35
  Speaker 1: I did.
• 1:50:36
  Speaker 3: I thought I would have a chance if I was
• 1:50:37
  Speaker 3: right and he was wrong, that I could catch him.
• 1:50:39
  Speaker 15: Yeah, and I do.
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So I gave you But what like your reasoning
• 1:50:45
  Speaker 3: the things.
• 1:50:45
  Speaker 4: We know what we don't know? No, it is one
• 1:50:48
  Speaker 4: thing we don't know, what is brock perty.
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 3: The figuring it out and changing in the Ravens like
• 1:50:54
  Speaker 3: you were talking about the Niners and then you were
• 1:50:56
  Speaker 3: talking about.
• 1:50:56
  Speaker 1: The what do we got?
• 1:50:57
  Speaker 4: And look who is charging in not out?
• 1:50:59
  Speaker 1: Whoever they played? Whoever the forty nine ers played this.
• 1:51:02
  Speaker 4: ALEXANDROF.
• 1:51:03
  Speaker 6: Francisco, she ways in with a Chiefs upset thirty five
• 1:51:06
  Speaker 6: to twenty eight. Swifties overwhelmed NFL buying Super Bowl merch.
• 1:51:11
  Speaker 1: Thirty five to twenty eight. Okay, okay, job Alex No,
• 1:51:15
  Speaker 1: I meant whoever forty nine is played in the NFC
• 1:51:17
  Speaker 1: game the second half, they just kind of like so
• 1:51:20
  Speaker 1: they adjusted and they ran away with it.
• 1:51:22
  Speaker 3: First of all, yeah, they won by a field goal.
• 1:51:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:51:25
  Speaker 3: Second of all, the offense was basically consisting of a
• 1:51:29
  Speaker 3: ball off a guy's face for fifty one yards and
• 1:51:31
  Speaker 3: then a fumble inside the twenty like the scrambles. And
• 1:51:35
  Speaker 3: I don't know how the Ravens got into it, but
• 1:51:37
  Speaker 3: I think he misspoke on the Ravens.
• 1:51:39
  Speaker 1: But no, I just I think I think the forty
• 1:51:44
  Speaker 1: nine ers have They just have so many answers to
• 1:51:47
  Speaker 1: whatever you throw at them, and in Shanahan knows how
• 1:51:50
  Speaker 1: to use it.
• 1:51:51
  Speaker 3: It's really not what what are we got?
• 1:51:54
  Speaker 1: Time? Yeah?
• 1:51:55
  Speaker 3: Goo ahead. It's a good offense. There's a lot of
• 1:51:58
  Speaker 3: teams that have a lot of weapons. You're just not
• 1:52:00
  Speaker 3: used to seeing them because we get stuck with watching
• 1:52:02
  Speaker 3: a team that doesn't have any. Oh, Paul, come on,
• 1:52:05
  Speaker 3: but you you don't think, like, just as as a
• 1:52:07
  Speaker 3: point of comparison, you don't think the Eagles have a
• 1:52:09
  Speaker 3: comparable amount of weapons to San Francisco couple. You don't
• 1:52:12
  Speaker 3: think a J. Brown, DeVante Smith and Dallas godd Or
• 1:52:15
  Speaker 3: similar to Brandon Ayuk, Deebo Samuel and George Kittle.
• 1:52:19
  Speaker 1: And throwing Christian mcket don't forget him.
• 1:52:21
  Speaker 3: DeAndre Swift isn't as good as McCaffrey, not even close,
• 1:52:24
  Speaker 3: but in that realm, and Jalen Hurts is nine thousand
• 1:52:28
  Speaker 3: times better than Rock Purdy. Like that's the biggest gap
• 1:52:32
  Speaker 3: out of all of those plays. So, like, I think
• 1:52:34
  Speaker 3: there are teams that have good weapons.
• 1:52:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I mean, you're not wrong.
• 1:52:38
  Speaker 3: I just we're talking about San Francisco like that. There
• 1:52:40
  Speaker 3: were seven pass you know, like this is this unstoppable
• 1:52:43
  Speaker 3: thing that can't be slow. I saw them get slowed
• 1:52:46
  Speaker 3: a lot this year.
• 1:52:46
  Speaker 1: The versatility of Deebo Samuel and McCaffrey, both in the
• 1:52:50
  Speaker 1: run game and the passing game.
• 1:52:52
  Speaker 3: You know, it's they're good. It's a good offense. Yeah, yeah,
• 1:52:56
  Speaker 3: thank you. There are other good offenses too.
• 1:52:58
  Speaker 1: Okay, but they're not in this Super Bowl. But I'm
• 1:53:00
  Speaker 1: we're only dealing with this.
• 1:53:02
  Speaker 3: You're talking about the Niners like it's this unstoppable force. Yeah,
• 1:53:05
  Speaker 3: they've been stopped. They were stopped by Green Bay.
• 1:53:08
  Speaker 4: They have been stopped two weeks ago. Go back to
• 1:53:11
  Speaker 4: my point, it's just I think they just have so
• 1:53:13
  Speaker 4: many pieces that can score quick.
• 1:53:15
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 1:53:15
  Speaker 4: And that's what I feel like is going to happen.
• 1:53:17
  Speaker 6: Nor the end of the game, when it's so hard
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 6: for any defense to get a stop, that all of
• 1:53:21
  Speaker 6: a sudden, it's now McCaffrey for twenty, you know, and
• 1:53:23
  Speaker 6: then Debo on an end around for fifteen.
• 1:53:25
  Speaker 4: You know, like those kind of things.
• 1:53:26
  Speaker 1: And that's the other It might not happen. But but
• 1:53:28
  Speaker 1: here's you know, here's the thing I give you, Kansas City,
• 1:53:31
  Speaker 1: they've got that experience. A lot of teams that get
• 1:53:34
  Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl, they're adrenaline, you know, they're all,
• 1:53:37
  Speaker 1: you know, ready to go. First half, and then second
• 1:53:40
  Speaker 1: half you see a lot of points because the defenses
• 1:53:43
  Speaker 1: are just tired.
• 1:53:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah that's Tom Brady's then, you know, they're just tired
• 1:53:47
  Speaker 3: a lot.
• 1:53:48
  Speaker 1: But I think Kansas City knows that they know how
• 1:53:50
  Speaker 1: to handle themselves in the Super Bowl. They've got that experience,
• 1:53:54
  Speaker 1: and it's very much like the Patriots. You know, the
• 1:53:57
  Speaker 1: Patriots leaned on that experience toward you know the second
• 1:54:02
  Speaker 1: half of the dynasty because they knew what to expect,
• 1:54:05
  Speaker 1: they knew the difference between the first half and the
• 1:54:07
  Speaker 1: second half, and I do think that's huge.
• 1:54:09
  Speaker 3: To Freddy's point, I do think that if the Chiefs
• 1:54:11
  Speaker 3: are gonna win, they're gonna need to get out to
• 1:54:13
  Speaker 3: a lead and then hold on because I think if
• 1:54:15
  Speaker 3: they get in a shootout and it goes back and forth,
• 1:54:17
  Speaker 3: I think San Francisco's offense is better. I do agree
• 1:54:20
  Speaker 3: with Freddy that San Francisco has more options offense.
• 1:54:23
  Speaker 1: But here's the thing that would worry me, even in
• 1:54:25
  Speaker 1: a shootout late party like he's gonna make that mistake
• 1:54:30
  Speaker 1: and Mahomes isn't proper.
• 1:54:31
  Speaker 3: Right, But I feel like Mahomes needs to put an
• 1:54:33
  Speaker 3: amount of points on the board that San Francisco can't
• 1:54:36
  Speaker 3: get to because of party. Do you know what I mean?
• 1:54:38
  Speaker 3: If they're able to play the game on their terms
• 1:54:40
  Speaker 3: and be balanced and go back and forth, I think
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 3: San Francisco will be fine offensively. I think the Chiefs
• 1:54:46
  Speaker 3: are gonna slow him down early and get a lead.
• 1:54:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and then and then it's like, do you really
• 1:54:51
  Speaker 4: trust Rock Purdy to be able to have the Brady
• 1:54:53
  Speaker 4: last minute drive?
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 1: You know, Mahomes, we know what you would do.
• 1:54:56
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't feel great about that, but I also wouldn't
• 1:54:58
  Speaker 3: feel great, Like you know, a lot of baitis like
• 1:55:01
  Speaker 3: that throw that Garoppolo couldn't make when they played Kansas
• 1:55:03
  Speaker 3: City last time. I don't have a lot of fit
• 1:55:05
  Speaker 3: unless it goes off of the defensive back's face. Again,
• 1:55:08
  Speaker 3: like I don't. I didn't see much from Party in
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 3: these two games, and I've been a big Party defender
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 3: to Evan, right, so I'm trying to be fair. I've
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 3: kind of been wrong.
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 1: Well, I think he bailed himself out with his legs,
• 1:55:20
  Speaker 1: which was kind of a pleasant surprise for he did.
• 1:55:22
  Speaker 3: He moves, he moves well, and he did make some
• 1:55:24
  Speaker 3: plays with his legs when he had to. But he
• 1:55:27
  Speaker 3: hasn't been good in the games. He's been good when
• 1:55:29
  Speaker 3: he's had to be. And you know, obviously you'll take
• 1:55:33
  Speaker 3: that if you have those options, a really good game
• 1:55:36
  Speaker 3: or not coming through in the clutch or so so
• 1:55:39
  Speaker 3: during the game, but coming through in the clutch. I
• 1:55:40
  Speaker 3: think would all take that.
• 1:55:41
  Speaker 1: But all the people that are like, how can you
• 1:55:44
  Speaker 1: bet against the Chiefs, they're right. I mean, you know
• 1:55:49
  Speaker 1: that experience in Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid I think
• 1:55:53
  Speaker 1: gives them, you.
• 1:55:54
  Speaker 3: Know, so a good one. I think it should be
• 1:55:56
  Speaker 3: a good matchup. I think the Niners have been the
• 1:55:57
  Speaker 3: best team all year. Over the balance of the seven
• 1:56:00
  Speaker 3: team games, they were the best team. But it doesn't
• 1:56:03
  Speaker 3: matter who's the best team on Sunday.
• 1:56:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so I'm excited. I can't wait. You know, I
• 1:56:08
  Speaker 1: won't be having the big you know gala that Paul
• 1:56:11
  Speaker 1: will be here. Just be me and my wife, Paul
