00:00
I saw that T.J. Watt Instagram post of him giving the peace sign to everybody.
00:06
He was kind of giving one of these.
00:09
Of course, that puts everybody into a frenzy.
00:12
You know, it can't just be, what is this about?
00:14
Why is it? He doesn't have any message there.
00:15
What is going on? What is happening?
00:17
It is bizarre.
00:18
These guys like screwing with everybody and doing stuff like this.
00:23
There's no, nobody knows why he posted that.
00:26
Listen, he's a great player.
00:30
And I love him being on the Steelers.
00:33
And I thought that at the end of the year, he faded off horribly.
00:38
I really did.
00:39
Like, I mean, like I watched, I went to the games.
00:43
He didn't have any sacks.
00:45
He didn't do anything.
00:46
In the playoff game, he did nothing.
00:49
I mean, he didn't even have a tackle.
00:51
So, you know, peace sign, you're leaving.
00:56
No deal, new deal.
00:58
I don't even care anymore.
00:59
Like, you know, what's next?
01:02
The injuries that your brother had?
01:04
Like, is your body going to break?
01:05
I kind of feel like it's the same bloodline, right?
01:07
Like, I'm all about genes and bloodlines.
01:10
Like, we've seen him injured.
01:12
Seen his brother injured.
01:13
When's he going to start getting injured?
01:14
Let me tell you when you start getting injured.
01:16
When you get older.
01:17
Now, this guy is not old yet, but he's going to be soon.
01:21
And when he's older, it's going to happen.
01:24
And then what?
01:24
You want to give him some big gigantic contract now?
01:27
When he's, you know, let's face facts.
01:30
Like, I'm not wrong.
01:31
Like, at the end of the year, he did nothing.
01:32
In the playoffs, he did nothing.
01:34
Am I wrong, Carver?
01:35
Or I hear at some point, like, he did nothing.
01:38
So, you're talking about a guy that I love and I think is great.
01:41
But I don't believe he's worth this gigantic contract that he wants.
01:47
And that he's worth all this tons of money.
01:49
I really don't.
01:51
Like, I think that it's the beginning of the end for him.
01:53
When I see him now, at the end of each year, either injured or not making plays,
01:59
not making tackles, not getting sacks, I know he gets doubled a lot and everything else.
02:03
That's not my problem.
02:05
But if you want the big bucks, you got to make those plays.
02:09
I mean, I can see why the Cowboys are giving Parsons all that money because he's young.
02:14
This guy Watt's been around.
02:16
He's been around.
02:17
Let's not act like he's some newbie.
02:20
So, I think it's a very dangerous situation they're in with him in terms of contractually.
02:27
Fair enough?
02:29
Fair enough.
02:31
You're not wrong.
02:32
He had a really bad second half in playoff.
02:35
He did not play well.
02:36
He lost the defensive player of the year outright and deservedly.
02:41
Deservedly so this past season.
02:43
And I did see that Vrabel video.
02:47
We couldn't play it for several reasons.
02:49
One, it was like a cell phone vid from one of the guys who wasn't supposed to be using
02:54
his cell phone in the meeting.
02:56
And you had language and all that.
02:57
But I think he made his point pretty clear that it's a new day in New England with Mike
03:04
Vrabel running the ship now with those guys.
03:07
No hoodies, no cell phones.
03:11
Don't be late.
03:12
I'll give you one call.
03:14
I got a problem.
03:16
Don't call twice.
03:18
Don't do it again.
03:19
I'll give you one.
03:19
And then you start calling.
03:20
I got a problem.
03:21
I'm going to be late.
03:22
Don't do it more than once.
03:24
And he let the lay of the land.
03:26
The laws have been thrown down.
03:28
The gauntlet has been thrown.
03:29
Don't be, don't treat the kitchen staff, the weight room staff, don't treat any of them
03:35
poorly.
03:36
Don't treat anyone poorly.
03:38
He gave you all the rules to live by there in Foxborough going forward.
03:43
Mike Vrabel.
