00:00
You had mentioned to me that you think they should perhaps go get Tannehill.
00:10
Well I'll tell you what, Tannehill is the best available quarterback out there right
00:13
now guys.
00:14
If you look at the market, you got Blaine Gabbert, you've got Tannehill, Tannehill is
00:18
a capable quarterback but let's be real, if you're the Minnesota Vikings right now, listen,
00:24
your win total was six and a half coming into the year.
00:27
You sort of have to know the rooms gone around you, right, and whatever business you're in
00:30
and know what your competitors are up to.
00:33
The Detroit Lions are in like Super Bowl mode right now, they spent all their money, they're
00:37
all in, right.
00:38
The Green Bay Packers, they're on the rise, like they're knocking on the door right now.
00:44
I think they're going to be battling, they're right there with Detroit in my opinion.
00:47
The Bears are up and coming.
00:49
If you're the Vikings, you're sort of in between.
00:51
Like even with J.J. McCarthy this year guys, they were going to win what, seven games?
00:56
Their win total is six and a half, like there wasn't this big projection to begin with and
01:00
I like the over, Scott, I got, I'm out now.
01:04
That's why I always tell people if you're betting NFL futures in the off season, in
01:07
the summertime, only bet teams you like the under because not good things are going to
01:11
happen to teams.
01:12
Only bad things happen to teams before the season starts, so never bet on overs.
01:15
I like the Vikings over six and a half before.
01:18
I don't anymore because like you said, bro, Mullins, so we had one good night on a Monday
01:23
night with the Niners or something four years ago, Scott, and I agree with your take.
01:27
He's just another one of these dudes.
01:29
He's good enough to hang around in the NFL.
01:32
I don't think, I think the NFL should give some other guys some chances to be honest
01:35
instead of sort of repeating the same guys over and over again all the time.
01:39
But if you're the Vikings, Scott, why not just sort of top out?
01:43
I hate to say it, but get a big time drop pick, get, you know, build up your, you know,
01:47
you got to stockpile a little bit.
01:49
O'Connell, you're not getting fired, bro.
01:51
You have J.J. McCarthy coming in hot next year.
01:53
He'll be your quarterback.
01:56
If you're Minnesota, Tannehill, or no one's saving your season.
01:59
Another guy to keep your eye on too, guys, is Trey Lance, all right?
02:04
And I don't think that Trey Lance, he's not the next Jordan Love.
02:08
He would have, it would have come alive by now.
02:11
But the thing is, he's a very good athlete.
02:13
He's a free agent after the year.
02:15
And Dallas don't know what's going to happen with Prescott.
02:17
So I don't know if they, I think they won't want to sit on them, but expect teams to start
02:21
calling Dallas now about Trey Lance.
02:25
And I think Tannehill's at the front of the line here, Scott, but from what, you know,
02:28
all reports, and I don't pretend I didn't speak to anybody with Harbaugh's crew, but
02:33
a lot of reports out of LA are that they're a little bit worried, just like you and I
02:38
talked about, about Justin Herbert, bro, about his, about his health.
02:42
And they're starting to realize, dear God, we cannot have Easton Stick as our starting
02:46
quarterback.
02:47
So it looks like the Chargers are in talks with Tannehill.
02:51
So if you want Tannehill right now, guys, if you're an NFL team, you better move fast
02:55
because Tannehill's agent's phone is ringing and buzzing right now.
