00:00All right, well, it's over and it was over before the game was over because thanks a

00:10lot.

00:11Chiefs.

00:12Thanks a lot, dude.

00:14I think we could have put the love out there and created more resistance.

00:18Oh, I agree.

00:20Gee, I mean, they rolled over going into milehead yesterday and you know what?

00:29This is what sucks about sports.

00:32When you don't control your own destiny and you're relying on somebody else to do something,

00:41right?

00:42It was like you just mad.

00:44It's such a bad.

00:45Yeah.

00:46Like they have nothing.

00:47They literally have nothing to play for.

00:50And we're begging that they go out and play like they went.

00:52They're playing in the Super Bowl.

00:55It's a very pathetic feeling.

00:56It's a very pathetic.

00:58After I saw that, all right, that even before I saw that, the Saints and the Falcons just

01:06watching those two games.

01:07That was great.

01:08How was that trashy division?

01:10That was the best part of the day by far.

01:12Yes.

01:13They have both those games going.

01:14Both those games going on and you're like, this is fun.

01:18Bryce Young was, was, was cooking Michael Pennix, a nice little duel.

01:23And then you had Mike Evans going for the record.

01:25It was, it was a fun one o'clock slate, but I mean, that was crazy.

01:33Like just going back and forth.

01:34And then, and then they did the NCAA, uh, tournament box.

01:39Yeah.

01:40The score of the other game in the corner of like, it was, it was, it was, it was fire

01:44yesterday, man.

01:45Cause the Saints got out that I could give a rat's ass about what kills me.

01:50That was, uh, that was, that was as low as the football guy yesterday because the worst

01:54division had the most exciting games.

01:56Oh my goodness.

01:57It was, I'm like, wait a minute.

01:59What?

02:00And then I started thinking, what happens if both teams lose?

02:02Cause right now it's not looking good.

02:04I believe if both teams lost, uh, the bucks had, they, they had the better record, but

02:08the same, but the Falcons had the tiebreaker, they beat them twice this year.

02:12Right.

02:13That's what we were going for.

02:14That was what the look was.

02:15But I'll tell you what, how about Bryce Young?

02:18Yeah.

02:19Yeah.

02:20Get, you know, Andy Dalton gets into a fender bender and then all of a sudden, uh, Bryce

02:22Young has a little bit of resurgence at the end of the year.

02:25You know, you know what it is.

02:27It's I don't understand for the life of me, how a team can invest so much time and so

02:39much money in a player, right.

02:43And then throw them out there and say, win us a game.

02:46Like it's no matter who it is, it's still a prospect.

02:51He still needs development and the, some players need more development than others.

02:58Some don't need any like, but you still have to go through that process.

03:04And so many players get thrown into the fire without doing the kind of the legwork of what

03:12it takes to play that position.

03:14And then we go, Oh, he's a bust.

03:16He ain't the guy when in actuality he probably shouldn't have been playing yet because he

03:19wasn't ready.

03:20Like, like Spoh is too much, right?

03:26Spoh does it with his young bigs.

03:28It's too much.

03:30But in some instances in football, you can see it too.

03:35You can see, Oh, this guy needs just a little bit of work.

03:39He needs to see somebody do it or something like that.

03:41And these teams ruin quarterbacks that way.

03:44And thank God Bryce Young got to sit.

03:46He wouldn't have been playing all year, right?

03:50He wouldn't have been playing all year.

03:51Dalton was healthy and he learned some things.

03:53He picked up some stuff watching and he's played a lot better since he came back.

03:59Let's get to a headlines here brought to you by Doral Volkswagen, Doral Volkswagen shoes

04:02run with 300 new Volkswagen miles in the stock of the T1, the tiles and the Atlas.

04:05Remember when it comes to Volkswagen, the great deals are at Doral Volkswagen dolphin

04:09season ends.

04:10They lose 32, 20 to the jets booth.

04:15They finished the season eight, nine, and then Steven Ross shortly after their releases

04:20a, a statement.

04:23Is this a new thing, releasing statements that you're not firing people?

04:26Is it like this became the, this became the thing yesterday throughout the league.

04:30Cause there were three of these that were surprising with getting out ahead of it.

04:36I guess so.

04:37Cause you know what the questions would be for the next week, but I listen, here's what

04:42I would say about Chris career.

04:45He has a very close relationship and has had a very close relationship with, um, Steven

04:54Ross.

04:55So it seems to me that the two of them would sit in a room and he would stay on board in

05:04some capacity and save face while going out and getting a new GM.

05:11That's, that's how, that's how this, you know, kind of is playing out.

05:19I'm sorry, frog boy.

05:20I just lashed out at him in the private chat.

05:22I know like too much, like, you know, you guys have to see PFF on Bryce young, more

05:31Bryce young.

05:32That is the most research you've done in the history of this show where you've given us

05:36so much Bryce young data that I'm just like, Hey, we get it.

05:40He's been good.

05:42You guys are talking about mechanics and how long, no, dude, he talked to Rod wave.

05:48He got good.

05:49That's what we need to do, man.

05:51It doesn't didn't to a love Rod wave.

05:53Didn't work out for him.

05:54They didn't meet him.

05:55He's just listening to him.

05:56You got to meet him.

05:57You got to talk.

05:58That's our problem, guys.

05:59We're just missing a little Rod.

06:00I guess, I guess, but, but it's still, you know, because does anybody know about Caleb

06:08in Chicago?

06:09What's going to happen to him?

06:10They switching coaches.

06:11They're doing this.

06:12He's have a new system.

06:16Might have Brian Flores.

06:17Oh, good luck.

06:20There's Brian Flores.

06:21Actually, there's a, there's some Anthony.

06:22I don't know.

06:23You listen.

06:24It was not good for Anthony Weaver's final resume because the jets cooked his defense,

06:29but there was a supposedly reports going into the weekend.

06:31The bears were doing a lot of the, their due diligence on, on Bob and weave.

06:35Now, my question is this, when you have a number one pick and you take Caleb, do you

06:49have to, do you go in an offensive minded head coach or do you go with a defensive minded

06:54head coach and risk kind of what happened to tour?

06:58I listen, I don't know.

07:02I don't know.

07:03I think, uh, I think from their standpoint, maybe, I mean, maybe they pull a, uh, they,

07:08what they did with McDaniel with Boyer in the first year, maybe they just keep their

07:11offensive coordinator.

07:12I don't know.

07:13I don't know.

07:14He tried to sell that.

07:15I don't know.

07:16He was just saying, I'm just saying like the, clearly your primary investment in the last

07:28couple of years has been your quarterback.

07:30Right?

07:31In fact, you've invested in two quarterbacks in the last five years.

07:35Um, that being said, would it not, but like, who's the guy found to go to, uh, a defensive

07:45guy?

07:46Well, here's the thing though.

07:47Who are the candidates right now that are hot?

07:49Like it's going to be the biggest one is Ben Johnson.

07:51Yeah.

07:52But there's a lot of the, okay.

07:53So you try, he might stay.

07:55Yeah.

07:56Ben Johnson seems like he is like being the offensive coordinator.

07:59I'm good.

08:00Right.

08:01I love it.

08:02I love it here.

08:03Like, I don't think he's leaving unless it's the, the quintessential position and he ain't

08:06leaving for the division to get his teeth kicked in for a few years.

08:10No way, dude.

08:11Hey, there's a couple of places that I'm not going and, and, and one is Chicago, um, and

08:19the other three teams are secure.

08:22So you got, uh, you got O'Connell.

08:25There was all these rumors yesterday that they were going to maybe trade O'Connell because

08:28he was, they said afterwards it was, it was crazy that that wasn't true.

08:33But Jake laser, like he's a, he's a pretty reputable guy.

08:36Like he's not a, like see what I mean about see how these things play out.

08:42Like the fact that there's even any conversation about that team and about moving coaches is

08:54crazy.

08:55Uh, Doug Peterson just got fired.

08:58So I guess he's available.

08:59I mean, is it C and here's the other thing, like how much of it is the owner and how much

09:10of it is the coach?

09:13Because here they, they kind of have the same situation we think we have down here is that

09:18you keep switching coaches, but the GM is still there and they hate him.

09:24They hate everybody.

09:25Everybody hates you and walk you up there.

09:27Right.

09:28So, so how do you, how do you go about that?

09:30Because I think they showed you how they went about it.

09:32They kept the GM and they fired the coach.

09:34He might have, he might have, you know, the ear of the owner and like, yeah, like this

09:41is, this is two things.

09:43It's getting back on track or covering your ass.

09:48Right.

09:49A GM can cover his ass.

09:50A coach can, right.

09:52He's out there.

09:53He's out there.

09:54That, that record speaks to him more than anything.

09:57And they're not gonna all of a sudden say, you know, it's not the coach's fault.

10:01It's the GM's fault.

10:02Nobody ever says that.

10:03Um, uh, the, the giants are keeping everybody day ball and Joe Shane.

10:09They got a hell of that.

10:12That one to me is the most surprising.

10:14So far, part of it is, you know, you're going to get a quarterback.

10:21What are they second or third?

10:24No, the third and the Browns and the Titans are above them.

10:27And the word is the, the Titans apparently love cam ward.

10:32Yeah.

10:33So they might not get a quarterback or that, I mean, they're going to trade up.

10:37I don't know.

10:38The, you think, see, Oh, I guess the Brown, well, I would have thought the Browns would

10:42have like, you don't think the Browns are going to, you don't think the Browns are ready

10:44to get there.

10:45Deshaun Watson.

10:46Air.

10:47No.

10:48I don't know.

10:49It's too much against the cap.

10:51So what do you do?

10:52Do you take your door?

10:55That's what I'm saying.

10:56I don't know.

10:57Right.

10:58Or trade down.

10:59Hmm.

11:00Like it, like clearly the, the Browns are in the worst position to have the second pick

11:09because if you pick a quarterback with everything else going on around your team, defense getting

11:15older, offensive line, getting older, running back, I mean, maybe done trying to, you know,

11:23play the style of football you want to play, then like the one position that would set

11:31you back is having a quarterback and having him sit.

11:34Right.

11:35Because that means you've done absolutely enough to improve your team immediately.

11:40So I like do you, but, but you're doing Sanders, you put them on defense, you can put them

11:46on offense.

11:47You can do a number of Hunter dude.

11:49I mean, Travis Hunter.

11:50Sorry.

11:51I don't know why I did that.

11:52Travis Hunter.

11:55I don't like I should do her and, and, and cam have a lot of, they do a lot of common

12:04things.

12:05Right.

12:06Both of really cool.

12:07They do that little slow scramble thing.

12:10Right.

12:11So I don't, I don't know.

12:13I don't, I don't know how these teams go about it.

12:16The dolphins are what 13th, 13th, right in the middle, right in the middle, right in

12:21the middle.

12:22Just start, just start just, yeah.

12:24Right.

12:25Right.

12:26In the Marino spot.

12:27No.

12:28Marino was in the twenties.

12:29No, I'm just saying his number.

12:30Okay.

12:31You know, we'll get into all things.

12:33Dolphins.

12:34Steven Ross gives out a statement.

12:35Apparently wants out to finish the season, I guess with a torn hip, you know, sits on

12:43the sidelines and fell asleep, fell asleep in the fourth quarter.

12:48Who could blame them?
