00:00several landing spots for Bill Belichick next season, which are not being discussed.

00:07Um, and you brought up the Bengals based on the way the season has begun for them.

00:17Yep.

00:17You brought up the Ravens, which is a wild one.

00:21Well, if you really, you know, if you put on your aluminum, what is it?

00:26Aluminum hat, your tinfoil hat, and you start going down the wormhole.

00:30There was audio of something that Lamar Jackson said after the game.

00:35We know Bill loves Lamar Jackson.

00:38And we know Lamar and Habbaugh kind of have been button heads for a while.

00:44Habbaugh has been there forever, but he can't get them over the hump.

00:48Last time they won a Superbowl was 2012.

00:50Well, there is an NFL insider, Curtis,

00:54who suggests they know where Bill will end up next season.

00:57Yeah.

00:57So on the Bill Simmons podcast over the weekend and, uh, he was, sorry,

01:02there's crazy things potentially happening in the world that we can't discuss yet.

01:05Um, so yeah, that, that, we gotta get it.

01:09Gotta get another source.

01:10I've just reached out to somebody.

01:12That story is, if that's accurate, it's wild, but go ahead.

01:16Yeah.

01:16Sorry.

01:17Uh, so, um, let's get to, can we get to the important stuff?

01:20Okay.

01:21So, uh, Bill Belichick is a free agent and this gentleman, Mr. Ruiz, I think it's Stephen Ruiz.

01:28Correct.

01:28On the Ringer podcast discusses what he believes to be the destination that Bill is heading to.

01:34Bill Belichick is going to be coaching the Jaguars next season and we'll know it by New Year's.

01:38Like it won't be official, but it will be the worst kept secret in the NFL that Joe,

01:43that Bill Belichick is going to be the next coach of the Jaguars.

01:45Well, first of all, I know some beat reporters down in Jacksonville and I think,

01:48you know, there's already whispers there.

01:50I'll, I'll, I'll start with that.

01:51I think like the way ShotKhan is kind of ramping up his coaching hirings.

01:55Like he starts with like the no-name GM who are no-name defensive coordinator and Gus Bradley.

02:01That doesn't work out.

02:02He goes with Doug Marone.

02:03He goes the other side, another, you know, assistant.

02:05And then he goes for the splash hire.

02:07He goes with Irvin Meyer, the guy who's won, but he hasn't won at this level.

02:10And then the next one is Doug Peterson, the guy that's won at this level, but hasn't done it

02:14consistently.

02:14The one who hasn't like done it again.

02:16I think next in line is, is Bill Belichick.

02:18And then my, the real reason why I believe this is because like we talked about earlier,

02:22like ShotKhan is a hands-off owner.

02:25I don't think he's going to get spooked like Atlanta did when Bill Belichick comes in and

02:28goes, I want to run the organization like this.

02:31I want to have GM powers.

02:32I want to be able to hire my own coordinators.

02:34I want to be able to like decide the, the direction of this franchise.

02:39I like it.

02:41Ah, bad news for Mac Jones.

02:43Oh yeah.

02:44That's Bill's first move.

02:45He's going to get his ass cut quick.

02:48I have a question for the room.

02:49Which would you rather have as an organization?

02:52What the Jags have right now, or what the Patriots have at quarterback?

02:59Um, we don't know.

03:02We don't know what Drake may exactly.

03:04That's the problem, but that could be a boat.

03:07I'll take Drake May.

03:08I'd take Drake May.

03:09Really?

03:10Yeah.

03:10I Trevor Lawrence has had many years.

03:13I don't think he's the real problem, but I don't think he's a guy that elevates at this

03:19point.

03:19You should be elevating people and he's not.

03:21I also, it is, it always, it is big about the coaches that you have, right?

03:26And it's really big about who the coach is.

03:29The guy that's coaching.

03:30Well, didn't Peterson come in as the quarterback whisper that one with folds.

03:33Yeah.

03:34I mean, that's a good point.

03:35That almost got Carson Wentz and MVP.

03:37Yeah, that is a good point.

03:38So, you know, maybe, maybe it isn't the coach in that case.

03:41Didn't he make the playoffs his first season?

03:45No, not his first season, his second season.

03:46It was the first season with Doug Peterson.

03:48Right.

03:48And they came back from what was like 28, nothing against the chargers and ended up

03:51winning that game.

03:52Right.

03:52I believe you had Herbert in that game.

03:54I tell you, that's a, I mean, that's a good landing spot for bill, but I still think there

03:58are going to be other opportunities out there that are going to be more ready.

04:02Organizations.

04:03We've talked about Dallas.

04:05We've talked about Philadelphia.

04:08Buffalo looks like they're good, but who the hell knows what happens.

04:12But if they get bounced in the first round, are they really.

04:16If Buffalo doesn't reach the AFC championship, I'm with wiggy.

04:19They call Belichick.

04:20The jets is another one.

04:23You know, I, I just think bill is going to pick an organization where he thinks he can

04:28win it all quick.

04:29Yeah.

04:30And that's, that's why I don't know.

04:32I don't know.

04:32I think that's the Cowboys.

04:33I don't, I don't think that's the Jaguars.

04:36I don't think that's the, I mean, I don't know.

04:39Maybe it is the jets.

04:40I guess it's, it's Cowboys or nothing.

04:43In my opinion, Eagles, Eagles, Eagles.

04:45Also, no BC has got a great coach.

04:48That coach will be on with us Thursday.

04:50Bill O'Brien cannot wait.

04:52Thursday, six 45 on this show.

04:54Um, but I mean, it's the most ready organization.

04:59If you were to drop bill in, I'll tell you.

05:05I liked the jets.

05:07I like, cause out of the three quarterbacks, Dak Prescott and Jalen hurts.

05:13And Aaron Rogers, I would say, obviously if Aaron Rogers is healthy.

05:18Yeah.

05:18He's the better of the three.

05:19It's going to be, what is he going to be 41 next season?

05:22Yeah.

05:22But it's only going to be for, you know, one or two years.

05:24I mean, that, that's it.

05:26That's all it's going to be.

05:26I'm not saying if you're, if, if bill was coming back to coach and he was going to be

05:30coaching for, let's say the next seven or eight years, I would probably say, ah, maybe

05:34Dallas is a better landing spot for him because Dak Prescott will be there for a while or

05:39even Philadelphia, but I'd probably lean more towards Dallas.

05:42Um, but when you start to look at just like one or two years, the rosters that are in place.

05:50Has bill done enough Curtis to change the image that may be out there around him and

05:56relating to young players and being a hard ass and whatever the issue was when it came to

06:03Arthur blank and the rest of them there, I could just talk for the fans of other teams

06:08outside the region.

06:09One of my best friends is from Philadelphia.

06:11I was talking with him over the weekend in Philly.

06:13They are ready for bill over Sirianni.

06:15There is not that angst that exists, you know, cause it's not your team.

06:19You don't feel that day-to-day day-to-day thing.

06:21The Eagles are right on the cusp of a championship.

06:24They believe Nick Sirianni is impeding their growth and they want Belichick.

06:29And all you need are one or two teams, right?

06:31And you don't think Dallas fans would love Belichick.

06:34Of course they would.

06:35Right.

06:35That's why I said Dallas fans jets fans would love Belichick.
