Derek Jeter's, rookie season.

5

So let's get into it.

Welcome, welcome, welcome.

9

Hey, Lana.

10

Thank you for coming and

11

this wildness that's going on.

12

Yep.

13

It is pretty crazy.

14

It's, I getting wild.

15

We're not even like, I mean, we

got the games to talk about, girl,

16

but what about these coaching

vacancies and all the, the stuff?

17

So I'm excited to talk to you about that,

especially given, your community and

18

I'm sure everything that they're saying.

19

So shall we, uh, jump in?

20

Let's do it.

21

All right.

22

Well, we both called that we

thought the Seahawks were gonna,

23

were gonna win and they Sure.

24

As they sure did.

25

41 to six.

26

Any, uh, anything about that?

27

I know that you miss your old coach.

28

I would miss him very much as well

if I saw him doing that old thing.

29

Just doing it, honey.

30

Watching Mike McDonald beat

the Seahawks was like watching.

31

I've never had an ex I miss, but if I

ever had to have one, it would be him.

32

It was like watching my, my ex just get

married to like this amazing woman who

33

cooks Happy Lunch dinner for Himm Happy.

34

I'm sure we would, it,

it would've been great.

35

I get it.

36

I'm with you.

37

Well good.

38

Well, now that, , San

Francisco can stop celebrating.

39

I guess they got their

Super Bowl in Philly.

40

That's what they said.

41

That's what people were like.

42

We 49 ERs Fans really

wanted to keep arguing.

43

You don't gotta argue like you, like,

why are you arguing with Eagles fans?

44

They're like, well, our beef

was only with the Eagles fans.

45

Well the Eagles fans really

didn't have any beef with y'all.

46

Y'all made it up.

47

We don't care.

48

Like, you're not in the NFC East.

49

We don't, and you know what's annoying?

50

I, I went to Phil.

51

They kept trying to bring up,

make this rivalry with y'all.

52

And I'm like, I don't

like why we don't need it.

53

We, we, there's nothing.

54

You are on the rivalry kind of more so is

with the Rams, if we gonna do something.

55

'cause we both have been

go, we've been going at it.

56

But like we, I just saw

you're not a factor.

57

Right.

58

You are a non.

59

They're just mad because we knocked their

quarterback out in like the playoffs.

60

And I'm like, look, you

were on like the third one.

61

It wasn't like, but anyway, let's

talk about how I was on the Philly

62

website this today, and then apparently

they dropped like this who were

63

playing our home in away games.

64

Absolutely.

65

And for whatever reason

we're playing the NFC West.

66

Ugh.

67

I'm so annoyed by that.

68

We have to play the NFC West next,

season and then we for the A FC South.

69

Oh, you don't, you don't look at it.

70

You don't look at it.

71

I look at it for like, I look at, I

always look at our schedule for two years.

72

Yeah.

73

Well they just published the

74

So the Ravens home and away opponents are

posted already for the next three years.

75

Oh.

76

So we know all, we already know, I knew

last year we were playing the Falcons.

77

Yeah.

78

And I knew, I figured it was an away game.

79

Yeah.

80

So.

81

That's funny that you, that's

funny that you didn't know that.

82

I love that.

83

You a nice surprise today.

84

Well, you know, like on the, I just went

to Philly, it just, they just posted

85

as news and so they posted it and,

and I was just like, oh, I don't wanna

86

do, I don't want to deal with them.

87

They just, it's just, y had to

deal with a 49 ERs again, and

88

the Rams, I'm like, dude, we have

to constantly play these guys.

89

I just don't feel like it.

90

Yeah.

91

It was interesting because a lot of

ladies, a 49 ERs fan thought I was

92

coming for them and I was like, no,

I'm just making a joke about Cancun.

93

Like y'all were talking ma

up to the, so much, much.

94

And so when y'all got to

Cancun, y'all were getting booed

95

because what was the reason?

96

Mm-hmm.

97

What was the reason you felt like

it was okay to talk all their trash?

98

Mm.

99

It's just they, it is

the most, but anyway.

100

We'll, give them their.

101

You know, 41 to six.

102

Bless you.

103

Now onto the other NFC game.

104

The, the Bears and the Rams.

105

What a moment.

106

What a moment.

107

, You thought that the bears were gonna win.

108

I thought the Rams would win,

and I wanted to be wrong.

109

I thought the bears were gonna

be Yeah, I just thought the

110

bears were gonna pull it out.

111

They did not.

112

Bears lost 17 to 20.

113

There was this beautiful,

, throw that Caleb Williams.

114

Made.

115

And it just, he was like running

back, running away from his

116

own, touching his own goal line.

117

And then he launches this missile

in the air and it, everybody,

118

my mouth, my, jaw dropped.

119

Sean McVay jaw dropped.

120

Everyone's jaw, jaw dropped

when they saw him throw that

121

missile of a football in the air.

122

And then his like tight end,

I think just catch it just

123

definitely was his tight end.

124

He just made it look.

125

He was just like, okay, boom.

126

You know, I was like, dang, this is,

I was like, they practiced that often,

127

often it looked very much practiced, but

except for that scramble, the scramble

128

did not look, , the scramble reminded

me so much of a Lamar scramble because

129

I felt like the past was just insane.

130

Insane.

131

So shout out to them on that.

132

, What was your view on that game?

133

I, I do have a, an opinion, , on

the coaching, but what was

134

your, what was your view?

135

I felt like that game was so

good and it was, it just kept

136

me on the edge of my seat.

137

Of course.

138

I was really

139

not surprised by the score at all.

140

Mm-hmm.

141

I was just a little disappointed

in Chicago's defense.

142

Okay.

143

, I didn't think like Ma Matthew Stafford

had to do anything in particular

144

that made him look like amazing.

145

Okay.

146

Um, I didn't think he, I'm

not a Matthew Stafford hater.

147

I like, you know, I like, like I, you

know, I'm neutral on Matthew Stafford.

148

Right.

149

If, you know, I'm assuming people voted

for him as MVP, because I guess he.

150

Pretty much was the most

consistent quarterback this season.

151

Mm-hmm.

152

Mm-hmm.

153

Um, including his interceptions.

154

But, I just truly, and I think

the rest of America truly enjoyed

155

Caleb Williams this season.

156

Mm-hmm.

157

And it hurt to watch it in that way.

158

Yeah.

159

Yeah.

160

You know what's funny?

161

One, I found that, the, that I

thought that Ben Johnson overplayed

162

his hand and there were, oh, yeah.

163

I should have said that part.

164

Yes.

165

Mm-hmm.

166

It would.

167

Yeah.

168

Go ahead, Ilana.

169

I'm sorry.

170

No, I was gonna say, you know, to

your point, it's like there were

171

multiple times where y'all could

have just kicked it for three point.

172

Mm-hmm.

173

You know, but he went for the fourth

and threes and the fourth and fours,

174

and I get it, the Rams defense.

175

You know, you think you're very

confident in your offense to

176

be able to do fun trick plays.

177

But why did you go away

from your running game?

178

Why exactly they, your running

game was you were, you were beating

179

the ranks with your running game.

180

There was no need for Caleb

to have to be a superhero.

181

Exactly.

182

This.

183

And that's probably why the lions lost

in the playoffs because you don't ha

184

and I say that because, when he used

to be the coach for the, the lions.

185

Mm-hmm.

186

You don't have to.

187

There was no need to, there was

no need to do anything special

188

against the Rams basic football.

189

Mm-hmm.

190

Basic football management

when it comes to the playoffs,

191

it's not about anything fancy.

192

It's not about, it's

not about a high score.

193

It's about winning.

194

I don't give a, I'll give full nanny

if it is not, don't turn the ball over.

195

Play defense.

196

That's it.

197

That's all.

198

And I definitely blame Ben Johnson for

going away for the, from the run game.

199

It reminded me a bit of, I was

so irritated, it reminded me

200

a bit of how your old coach

used to show up in Kansas City.

201

Mm-hmm.

202

Against Kansas City.

203

And I was like, you don't

abandon what got you here.

204

Mm-hmm.

205

And I, it looked like they

were running the ball.

206

Fine.

207

That's what it was like.

208

Weird.

209

But also, I.

210

If you keep getting stopped,

then obviously they're

211

catching something, right?

212

So mm-hmm.

213

What can you do that's different

so that they don't read you?

214

I was actually surprised

by Chicago's defense.

215

I didn't, I knew that they, they

ranked pretty good, pretty high

216

when it comes to, turnovers.

217

But I didn't think that they were

like over and above this , excellence.

218

Right.

219

But I was actually really impressed

by the defense for Chicago.

220

, Oh yeah, they were good.

221

Yeah, they were.

222

I thought they showed up in that game and

it's just unfortunate how things happened.

223

But I'm just saying, I think

that decisions, Ben Johnson was

224

out here, coach Dean Campbell,

225

we just gonna go for it on fourth

and fourth and fourth and three.

226

Yeah, it was like Dan

Campbell took over his body.

227

He was like, Hmm, how can I, and then

there's, how can I be Dan Campbell too?

228

How can I be Dan today?

229

But no, but shout out to the Bears.

230

They put together a really great, um, you

know, first season under their head coach.

231

And it felt like Caleb

really came into his zone.

232

And it just shows like really

good coaching can help, just,

233

it's just like LeBron says, right?

234

You can be extremely talented, but

you gotta go in and you gotta practice

235

and you gotta work on your craft.

236

And, but you need to surround

yourself with the people that

237

help you work on your craft.

238

And, so shout out to them.

239

Agreed.

240

Agreed, agreed.

241

Okay.

242

Both of us thought that the Broncos

and like in that Broncos Bills

243

game, that the bills were gonna win.

244

Oh, we did.

245

Broncos won 33 to 30 and over time,

but again, this is another one.

246

I got some thoughts about it, but

I'm curious what you're, you know, I

247

don't know if we can talk about what

happened after and all this drama and

248

all these little drama stories going on.

249

Drama, drama.

250

But let's just talk about the game first.

251

Any thoughts initially on the game?

252

So, funny story, y'all, you were there.

253

People are normally I would, that would

be my funny story, but funny story.

254

I didn't watch the game until

the fourth quarter in overtime.

255

My son was like having a meltdown.

256

Oh no.

257

Funny story.

258

My son threw my phone into a hole in

the steps and it is currently still,

259

it is still sitting in the wall.

260

Oh no.

261

So in the middle of the second quarter,

I had to go, no, I waited till the half.

262

Cried on my way out the door to, oh no,

like the store to go get a new phone and

263

had to watch the game in the T-Mobile

store with a Broncos fan and, oh no,

264

he got into this argument because I

was like, you guys didn't play anybody.

265

He's like, well, who did y'all play?

266

And so we didn't even watch the whole

game 'cause we got into like this big

267

oh Lord, fight about like strength

of schedule and what that meant.

268

And like, it was like a, it was

like a healthy, a healthy debate.

269

I love it.

270

And so I'm watching the guy like

panic about like, the bills coming

271

back then he was like, oh, the

bills are gonna come back, man.

272

This is supposed to be our revenge game.

273

And I said to him, Bo n only

played in the league for a year.

274

What revenge?

275

I'm like, y'all are making up

storylines to hype y'all selves up.

276

This is kind ridiculous.

277

He's like, yeah, because we were supposed

to be in the playoffs last season.

278

I was like, really?

279

When he was a rookie, I

was like, when y'all lost.

280

So the bills in Buffalo, this revenge,

Kansas, a city dominated through your

281

division for so long and y'all Yeah.

282

I don't understand, like 49

ERs fans and, Broncos fans.

283

Y'all are delusional.

284

Y'all make de y'all are making

up rivalries that don't exist.

285

Please stop just making it up.

286

Let stop.

287

Let, stop.

288

Why don't you go and pick on like

someone in your own, conference

289

or, I'm sorry, the division.

290

Like this is, you're doing too much.

291

Yeah, let not, you're doing much.

292

Let not, let's just not, but

yeah, he wasn't the only one.

293

I've, I heard people that were

Broncos fans in the group chat.

294

Shout out to that group chat.

295

They were all like, yeah,

this is our revenge game.

296

What are y'all talk like what, because

I'm, I'm thinking, I like when we talk

297

revenge game, are we talking like all the

way back into the eighties or something?

298

No, girl.

299

They were talking about last season.

300

Wow.

301

Card.

302

We need to start, we need to start helping

people understand what a true rivalry is.

303

Uh, 'cause people just wanna start

slapping that word on everything.

304

And you just, you gotta have history.

305

You gotta have some history.

306

It has to be a, a bit of a tension there.

307

We don't like you, you don't like us?

308

That's it.

309

And we have those within our

divisions, obviously, like mm-hmm.

310

Billy, absolutely.

311

We have such disdain for Dallas Cowboys.

312

Anything that we would rather

see the entire NFL beat them.

313

Then them win against anybody else, right?

314

Even our worst enemies.

315

But you can't start picking random

things just 'cause it the internet

316

on in your social media feed said so.

317

That's not how this works.

318

That's not how this works.

319

Guys got girls, I will say this.

320

I got a couple thoughts on

the Broncos bills game one.

321

I wanna hear what you gotta say, girl.

322

One.

323

Shout out to the Broncos for putting

together an offensive effort because

324

they definitely surprised me, because of

the fact that they didn't seem to have

325

as much offense or consistent offense.

326

It wasn't consistent all season.

327

So no lost to Mark Marcus Mariota.

328

Shout out though to, you got

two weeks to focus directly on

329

either a Bills or a Jacks team.

330

That's right.

331

And then one week to focus solely on

that, the benefit of having that top seed.

332

Two, the bills.

333

Josh Allen, he did the same thing

in, at the end of the Eagles game.

334

He was overthrowing his receivers and

it was so, it was just like either a

335

little bit too high or like a little

bit too far to this side or that side.

336

And I just felt if you can't nip

that, I guess maybe that nervous

337

energy or that, like in all of that

in the bud, like you're gonna continue

338

to overthrow your receivers at the

end of the games in crucial times

339

on the field.

340

I did not agree with the,

the interception call.

341

But then Joe Burrow read us all

for filth and was like, y'all

342

need to get your lives together.

343

And I was like, I okay.

344

Can I can get it.

345

But, um, I don't know that I, I, I, I

feel, I, I don't think you can hang your

346

whole hat on a ref's call in overtime.

347

Right.

348

And they were making really good movement.

349

Why not just continue to run the ball

and just get into field position?

350

Why not hold yourself accountable?

351

Especially, why would you like

throw a toss up past like a five

352

eight, like running back, right.

353

Wasn't it James Cook?

354

That, that, that went for it.

355

Mm-hmm.

356

Doesn't make sense.

357

Right.

358

And then, oh, go ahead.

359

No, I was just thinking yeah, if it's

cooked, so that's another thing I

360

hate, that's an, oh, sorry, my accent.

361

My, my Baltimore tongue

just came out real strong.

362

One thing about the Buffalo Broncos

game is that like, the overtime was

363

so tense that I was like, nauseous.

364

I was like, oh, I just,

I, it was so tense.

365

I was, I can't do this.

366

I was like, I literally,

I'm not even recruiting.

367

And I'll say this to our

audience and thank you.

368

Thanks y'all for DMing me

about like the podcast.

369

I appreciate it.

370

Oh, what?

371

Appreciate good stuff.

372

Yeah.

373

They say good stuff.

374

Oh, I can't believe the

podcast is almost over.

375

I'm like, oh, y'all are so sweet.

376

For the season, we do 20,

the season, we're year round.

377

We are here all year.

378

But you're right.

379

I'm sorry.

380

Keep going.

381

No, you're fine.

382

I was just thinking like I will

be, but our topic, it's ending.

383

Yeah, totally.

384

Yeah.

385

But I will just say , I'm

not gonna lie to y'all.

386

, I, did not want Josh Allen to

get a ring before Lamar Jackson,

387

but at the same time I was like, yo, if

nobody's gonna if anybody's gonna get it

388

this year, like from the a FC, while all

these other people, he's always compared

389

to are out, this is your path, bro.

390

And yeah, he like, it just kept

overthrowing his receivers and

391

he was overthrowing everybody

at the end of the game.

392

That had to be his

worst game in two years.

393

Yeah.

394

Him and CJ Stroud had pretty terrible

games, but we're not there yet.

395

The other thing about the Broncos game

is that, you know, our favorite , coach,

396

, Peyton wanted to say that he, yeah.

397

What, and shout out to Bo Nicks

and the rest of the like Yeah.

398

Shout out to Bo Nicks though.

399

Shout out to them.

400

Give them their flowers.

401

Amazing, amazing game.

402

Like everybody else in the organization.

403

Great job preparing.

404

You did your thing.

405

Yep.

406

But good fix.

407

But Bo Nicks during the game at the

very end of the game, broke his, A

408

bro broke, broke a bone in his ankle.

409

Yeah.

410

'cause yeah.

411

Let's be, yeah.

412

I'm so glad you said that.

413

More clear.

414

He broke a bone in his ankle, right?

415

Not the entire John, just the bone.

416

Yeah, because when he was walking, I'm

like, he ain't, doesn't look broken in me.

417

So, especially 'cause we've seen

some broken ankles this season.

418

All right.

419

Ball.

420

And I can't get scatter

boo out of my head.

421

Like, that was nasty, was gross

because, and I was, it was my fault.

422

Like I, I went back to watch it.

423

Oh, and that happened in Philly.

424

That happened in Philly?

425

Yeah, it happened in Philly.

426

. That was just him.

427

You can't be coming down and but again,

this is taking care of your body and

428

knowing and making a business decision.

429

But him and Jackson Dart gonna

have to learn that's on them.

430

, But basically with Bo Nicks, Peyton,

Sean Peyton said that, or Coach Peyton,

431

I'm gonna call him, coach Peyton said

, that he believed that the break came

432

in, like one of the end of the seat

like, like third or second to last play.

433

And the play that they showed was

him running and then getting tackled.

434

But he walked, he got up and

walked and was fine and walked.

435

What I saw was actually when they

were trying to censor the ball for

436

the field, for the field goal was

when he got people toppled on him.

437

And that's how it happened.

438

So I don't know if Sean Pay or Coach

Payton has said something different.

439

We don't know.

440

I don't know if he's changed as soon

because he just had got, he just got

441

off the field, so maybe he did, but

I'm like, nah, my guy was toppled

442

over and that's what happened.

443

And so shout out to Bo next.

444

Hopefully he'll have a speedy recovery,

but he will not be the quarterback

445

going to the a FC championship game.

446

Rather it'll be the guy that came off

the bench to replace Russell Wilson

447

last season or two seasons ago.

448

So we'll see.

449

And he's very confident.

450

Sean, coach Peyton is very confident

in that quarterback, and I can't, I

451

don't have his name, so I'm sorry.

452

Listeners intern.

453

Any thoughts about to, to wrap

up our Bronco's bills analysis?

454

No, I'm sorry.

455

Again, y'all didn't watch the whole

game, so I don't really hear that.

456

The end was just like, to your point,

I was like on pins and needles.

457

Last, but not least, kind of

sad about it, but the Patriots,

458

, beat the Texans 28 to 16.

459

We both thought that the Texans would

win that game and we were wrong.

460

Uh, CJ Stroud just had a , really bad day.

461

, So one, let's also just paint the picture.

462

It was, they played in Foxborough, which

is Patriot's home in Massachusetts, and

463

there was, it was like snowing, sleet,

things that are happening in the game.

464

So they've, so there's some level of like

snow and impact of weather going on there.

465

Nico Collins, is the number one

receiver on that team, and he is mm-hmm.

466

Like an all pro.

467

Receiver, he suffered a concussion in

the game last week against the Steelers.

468

And so he was out.

469

And then in the first like quarter, , his

other, CJ's, other top receiver went out.

470

Mm-hmm.

471

, Schultz with a calf strain calf injury.

472

So he's got his, he is got his running

back still, but then he was, you know,

473

passing to the receivers he had left,

he just kept throwing it to the baby.

474

He, CJ Stride kept throwing

it to the Patriots defense.

475

It was real.

476

It was.

477

I think the snow impacted it too.

478

I think it was the weather was a

big impact and them not being Nico

479

was a big impact in my opinion.

480

You develop a you, you develop

a relationship and a rapport.

481

There's a reason why Devonte

Smith and Jalen hurts when Jalen

482

launches that ball down the field.

483

He knows that Devonte's gonna be there.

484

They've been together since college.

485

Right.

486

So it's, but I felt bad.

487

I actually had to turn it off.

488

I was just, I just felt stupid.

489

I wish la like Lamar and rash.

490

Sorry.

491

, Soon as you said that, I'm sitting

here getting angry about like

492

the chemistry being so

off in my locker room.

493

Mm.

494

Anyway, who, whoever your

new head coach will be.

495

But so anything else on

the Patriots, Texans game?

496

I guess right now it's still gonna

be the Bills and the Patriots

497

going, I'm sorry, the Broncos and

the Patriots going at it in Denver.

498

Sorry, I'm laughing 'cause that's

what we thought it was going be.

499

Right.

500

Broncos versus the Patriots, they're gonna

be meeting in, in, in Denver and there's

501

gonna be the Seahawks, hosting the Rams.

502

Another divisional opponent, going at it.

503

Any predictions for who's

gonna come out on either side?

504

I think the Super Bowl will be

the Seahawks versus the Patriots.

505

I do think the Seahawks are gonna win.

506

And, sorry, wearing sayings?

507

I think it's gonna be the Patriots

just because that they're qb,

508

they've got QB one and then, and

the Broncos are with their backup.

509

QB

510

two.

511

Sophomore quarterbacks made it to the two.

512

To the A FC.

513

What does that say about the A FC?

514

I think that the A FC just, it was kind of

like the control alt delete kind of reset.

515

Hard reset.

516

It was ti we don't, it

looked tight in this season.

517

I don't expect it.

518

Yeah, I don't expect that

this is gonna be the same.

519

Like next season.

520

Yeah.

521

I think this is like a free season.

522

Everybody who has sophomore quarterbacks

enjoy because this is the last time you're

523

going to get this opportunity, buddy.

524

But it's like, when, remember when

Jordan retired in the mid nineties,

525

it was kind of a free for all.

526

And so the Knicks ended up in

the finals against Houston.

527

So it's, oh, that was so random.

528

So it's like, well, the Knicks, you

know, they were very competitive,

529

but the Bulls always, you know, yeah.

530

It's always Bulls.

531

Bulls in the, in the Eastern conference.

532

But the, so I feel I liked it though.

533

I liked that it's unpredictable.

534

I like that it was different and fun.

535

I know everyone wants this dynasty idea.

536

They want this.

537

No, you have to be great.

538

You have to like, I can't

stand it with the announcers.

539

It's , or the commentators,

both teams can't win the game.

540

Okay.

541

All teams don't win the game.

542

Okay?

543

Unless everybody's gonna tie every time.

544

And so they're so harsh, and I'm

just, but I'm like, there's only

545

gonna be one team that wins and,

okay, so y'all better figure it out.

546

They're professionals.

547

These are professionals with whole

coaching staffs, like mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

548

You know, I feel like they, we should

think about these professionals more

549

in like,, the college thing, where it's

like every, every year it's gonna be

550

a new, kind of, a new set of people.

551

Not brand new, spanking new, but like,

it's gonna be new people that are gonna

552

be a part of this organization because

everyone gets hired and fired, right?

553

Mm-hmm.

554

So we that it's gonna be,

Seahawks, Patriots, the Crane Bowl.

555

, The crane Bowl is what

the nickname was because.

556

So Frazier Crane was part of

Cheers back in the eighties.

557

And then, , he moved out to

Seattle to do his radio show.

558

Frazier.

559

Yeah.

560

It's my favorite move.

561

It's my favorite.

562

It's one of my favorite shows I love, but

I Frazier I never think about that part.

563

Oh yeah.

564

We, they called it the Crane

Bowl back when Brady was in it.

565

And so now we might get another crane

bowl, so that would be kind of great

566

anyway.

567

I know.

568

Even realize people call it that.

569

, You know, it's funny.

570

It was in the, when

Twitter was Twitter mm-hmm.

571

When Twitter was like threads now.

572

And people used to like, they, that they,

people knew that back then that I like,

573

I love watching old Frazier's reruns and

so they act, they would send me like,

574

oh look, they called it the cream bowl.

575

, So are we ready to talk about what

happened in, in Buffalo after that loss?

576

Let's talk about it and

let's talk about it.

577

So Sean McDermott, who's been, , with the

Buffalo Bills for eight seasons and or

578

eight years, , was handed his pink slip.

579

, It was announced, , by ownership,

but the person who is the GM of

580

the team was promoted to head

of president, head of football,

581

operations president and President.

582

Yep.

583

So there's a lot of the analysts are mad,

like they just are like, they're mad.

584

They're not mad.

585

They're just like, why are you

going to promote one person

586

and fire another person?

587

Mm-hmm.

588

It kind of reminds me a little bit

of what happened with Denver, in

589

Denver with the coach and the team.

590

So, I'll stop there.

591

The girls are mad though.

592

The, they are some, they got

some shots going back on folk.

593

I think that, from what I've heard is

like the GM that was promoted mm-hmm.

594

In Buffalo also goes on the radio

and like talks about the team.

595

Like why are you going

on the radio at all?

596

What are you doing?

597

Are you talking about the press

conference they had today?

598

No, I'm talking about just radio.

599

Oh, stop.

600

Like he goes into Buffalo

Radio sports shows.

601

Yep, bro.

602

But now, but today we learned from

the press conference that he, you

603

know, is the favorite of the owner.

604

Yep.

605

We learned that apparently

he didn't want Keon Coleman.

606

Nobody wanted Keon Coleman, but

Sean McDermott, we learned that

607

Sean McDermott is basically

blamed for everything in Buffalo.

608

And we also learned that Sean

McDermott wanted to get better talent.

609

He wanted a, a more talented roster.

610

And he said he went and he advocated

for himself and his team, and he

611

said, look, this is not a Super Bowl.

612

Mm-hmm.

613

Roster.

614

Mm-hmm.

615

It was five weeks ago.

616

Five weeks ago.

617

And they felt, and apparently they

pushed back and they said, well figure

618

it out, but let's take, and they

fired him, take a beat five weeks ago.

619

What did we know about

the A FC playoff race?

620

That was about December, early December.

621

Okay.

622

Let's say mid-December.

623

We knew that they could be

facing the Ravens again.

624

We knew that there was a toss up between

the Steelers and Ravens going on Uhhuh.

625

We knew, and that a FC North was,

it was not clear what was happening.

626

We knew that Kansas City was either

outta the playoff race or would, or

627

was on the way, was headed out, right?

628

Yeah.

629

So then we also know that the

Patriots are on a run, so the bills

630

likely aren't gonna get the number

one seat like they, they have.

631

So they were gonna have to

be on the road essentially.

632

So they knew kind of going

into December that there was

633

an op, there was an, there was.

634

Possibly one of the foes.

635

And they had already beaten the Ravens

earlier in the season, but they knew

636

one of his Josh Allen's foes was

gonna be potentially in the playoffs.

637

Mm-hmm.

638

And especially going into that Cleveland,

Pittsburgh game, I, a lot of people

639

thought Pittsburgh was gonna win it.

640

So, you know, even arguably if it, like

you're having that conversation, you're

641

like, yeah, it looks like Pittsburgh

will win out because it'll be Cleveland.

642

So if you think about it like that

ownership team, like the executive and

643

the owner probably was like, well, I

don't think they're gonna have the same

644

road bumps, that they've had in the past.

645

Mm-hmm.

646

So why can't you make

it work with this team?

647

And I, and so I just think about it

from that perspective of like, when

648

that hap that conversation happens,

you know, there they were looking at

649

what the playoff race looked like.

650

Mm-hmm.

651

And.

652

I personally, I, okay, so

let me say it this way.

653

The reasons that they gave the

owner said that it was what?

654

The devastate, the how The locker

room was devastated after that game.

655

Oh, yeah.

656

He said, I went over to Josh and Josh.

657

He couldn't look up at me.

658

He wouldn't even, he was crying.

659

Josh's tears.

660

Josh was tears.

661

What led to Sean McDermott's exit the

loss in Denver, how devastated that

662

locker room was and Josh's tears.

663

It's like, really?

664

Those aren't good reasons.

665

My girl.

666

I think everybody, like the reasoning

is not good, but I do think that.

667

I personally believe that they should

have parted ways with him, like

668

last season or maybe a season ago.

669

And it's just because it just feels like

it's round, peg, square, you know, hole

670

or whatever, square peg, round hole.

671

It just didn't seem like they were

making any like momentum or like any

672

leeway into getting further and further.

673

It just felt like they kept

on coming up every obstacle.

674

I mean, they just weren't getting to the

Super Bowl and they have a, they had a

675

talented roster until Josh, Shane left

and they all left and all of a sudden this

676

guy comes in and it's a, it's what it is.

677

So I thought they should have parted ways

and I wasn't gonna be surprised if they

678

parted ways, but the way that they did it

didn't, does not make any sense at all.

679

No, it didn't make sense at all.

680

And, I knew they were

going part ways soon.

681

I just didn't know.

682

, I didn't think it was going

to come like in that way.

683

Right.

684

In a way that they were trying

to put everything on him.

685

, And it shouldn't, that wasn't cool.

686

That wasn't cool at all.

687

I also just wanna say that I

don't, I feel like the, that Sean

688

McDermott is a talented coach.

689

It just, I just don't think it was working

with the bills, and the owners in the,

690

they had a press conference today and

that's where the comments about poor Keon

691

Coleman, he is, he's just catching strays.

692

He out here in Cancun, catching strays

from the owner, reminds, been a little bit

693

of Woody Johnson, what he did, um mm-hmm.

694

To Justin Field.

695

Right.

696

To Justin Fields.

697

But the Keon Coleman comment,

they, what they're not reporting

698

is that the, that there was.

699

Clarification that happened,

from, the, I guess the, now

700

the GM slash head of football.

701

He actually did say that, to clarify the

owner's remarks, it was that he was all

702

in on the personnel that they wanted.

703

He just wants, he just doesn't

want to, he doesn't, he said

704

that he was in on personnel.

705

He didn't necessarily

agree with the draft order.

706

Yeah.

707

He said he didn't want Coleman.

708

He said, but he's being a team

player Who said about somebody?

709

No, that's what the owner said,

but that's what the owner said.

710

Yeah.

711

But Bean actually clarified it

later in that press conference, and

712

that's kind of pushed to the bottom.

713

But Bean did say that he did.

714

He is.

715

He's good with the personnel.

716

He was fine with who they chose.

717

He was with his coach.

718

He just didn't agree on the

draft order necessarily, but

719

he had to, he clarified it.

720

So we just wanna make sure

we tell the whole story.

721

Oh yeah.

722

Because they're not

telling the whole story.

723

Like all the sport, like the media

folks are not telling, they're

724

not talking about how it was

clarified, but, oh, that's my vote.

725

I posted it.

726

No, you're fine.

727

I just read the ESPN article.

728

Like I read, I started continuing to

read and I was like, oh, he actually did

729

clarify that he was on, he just wasn't a

agree in agreement to take Keon so high,

730

but he's like, it's on us to develop him.

731

He be, he's said, they, he's been

here for two years and he has two

732

years left on his contract and it's on

them to develop him, moving forward.

733

And he said that the real issues really

is more about maturity and Keon gets it.

734

Yeah, that's what he said.

735

That's really his problem.

736

So.

737

That, , the topic on the Buffalo

Bills, I mean, it gets us to a good

738

place right where we can start talking

about these coaching availabilities.

739

So, uh, Atlanta, wow.

740

Atlanta, the Atlanta Falcons, , the Larry

Hawkins have, offered, and I guess we

741

haven't yet seen a press conference, but

it's been, I guess rumored and kind of

742

confirmed that Kevin Stefanski is gonna

be taking over the home in Atlanta.

743

They said he gonna pull out, they

said, they said he gonna pull out of.

744

He gonna pull out of it.

745

That's what people, that's the

joke, but I don't think he, , I

746

mean, , but we, we gotta get,

we're gonna go back to that one.

747

'cause the, there was some tweeting

going on, , but the New York Giants, the

748

tweet, some beefing the New York, right.

749

New York Giants, , head coach job went

to John Harbaugh, Tennessee Titans

750

hired Robert ELA from, he was the

Jets head coach, and he went to San

751

Francisco as the defensive coordinator.

752

Now he's with Tennessee Titans and then

the Miami Dolphin, Jeff Halfly, uh,

753

from, he's a, he's the, uh,, defensive

coordinator of the Green Bay Packers,

754

uh, as the Miami Dolphins head coach.

755

, so all that being said, we have

a bunch of still vacancies, but

756

curious what your thoughts are.

757

I don't understand why Miami went

with that particular head coach.

758

, Do you mean not like a

defensive coordinator.

759

Why did they go with the

defensive coordinator?

760

And also they had Anthony

Weaver right there.

761

So my under, when I've heard

other analysts talk about this

762

is that they, that, I guess

it's just a known belief that.

763

Miami's strength is really their defense.

764

And if we bring in a defensive

coordinator and you can kind of manage

765

the offense just to be able to not

turn the ball over and to score some

766

points, then you lead with defense.

767

And that's my understanding is that's

why they went that way, which I didn't

768

know that's how people felt about Miami.

769

Well, they don't have no choice because

they done gave that boy a million trillion

770

dollars to throw be inception the game.

771

So what they going to do?

772

What, the only way you going to

win the game is with your defense.

773

And you gave two in the world and the

guy that, , and they had the person,

774

the guy that had the most tackles.

775

The season.

776

Oh, he was on the Dolphins?

777

Yeah.

778

Yeah.

779

I remember we when you told me that.

780

We talked about that.

781

So yeah, I, yeah.

782

Okay.

783

I can get with that.

784

But they, to me, you can't just

ignore the roster for that dolphin.

785

They don't care.

786

They don't care.

787

They're serious over there.

788

But yeah, they unserious to me.

789

Right.

790

Because my thing is, you coulda

figured out something, a way to

791

do something with tour contract.

792

Mm.

793

Kat, Mike McDaniel,

794

IEL was the one making sure that they got

to the playoffs the past couple years.

795

Mm.

796

But it's a new start.

797

I guess that's the strategy is go forward

with the, I guess, defense, um, defense.

798

But it was so crazy because they was

like, they were like, yeah, Mike, um,

799

Mike McDaniel's gonna stay here in Miami.

800

He's gonna help with the GM search.

801

And then he got two days later, might

be, they said during the exit interview,

802

he found out, I think it was, he was

with, I think he was with Waddle.

803

Like it was like one of the

players was like, yeah, we

804

were in, uh, our X interview.

805

Yeah.

806

Awkward.

807

I've also heard the same with the

Robert, Sala in Tennessee, that their

808

defense is gonna have to carry them for

a couple seasons until Cam Ward gets

809

developed and, you know, there's, they're

able to, you know, rely on that unit.

810

So, but you know what, that's

how it should be for a Can

811

Ward and a Nashville stadium.

812

They getting a new stadium right there.

813

See?

814

So where's it gonna be?

815

Across the street from the old one.

816

Oh, okay.

817

They like still, I think they open,

no, I almost open this next season.

818

I say that they say.

819

I'm excited for Ka Ward for that.

820

I wonder if he was looking at the,

I know he went to the game, but I

821

wonder if he was like, dang, maybe I

should have stayed one more season.

822

Right.

823

Well, yeah.

824

I thought he put together

really, he did great.

825

Really solid rookie, especially given that

your head coach got fired in like October.

826

Oh yeah.

827

And somebody was saying who was, today

you just said it and then also Harry

828

Douglas mentioned it on the radio

today, radio today that, Tennessee's

829

defense wasn't the problem this season.

830

It was the offense.

831

Yeah.

832

Their defense was serious.

833

And that's what, that's what happened

with the chats when Robert, oh Lord,

834

we played them this, I just realized

I, I gotta play them this season.

835

Oh, lord.

836

And.

837

The Titans, , I'm sorry.

838

And , the one concern that people

have about the Titans is just

839

ownership and their decision

making, and that's all gonna stay.

840

I got a question, but mm-hmm.

841

That's all.

842

We gonna stay, we're gonna stay.

843

But they did have a change of like,

who's calling the shots now from before.

844

So we'll see what happens.

845

, Giants, , you know, I good for them.

846

It's the greatest

organization in the world.

847

, Yeah.

848

Good for them.

849

And we'll see how it all shakes out.

850

And that's all it got say about that.

851

And the fourth quarter, in the

fourth quarter of every game, did you

852

know that John Harbaugh has 17, 17?

853

Fourth quarter comebacks where

he had the lead and, yeah.

854

And lost.

855

And they lost 17, number one,

since they started recording.

856

Recording it, recording that

857

I am aware, and if you notice,

the Giants are not, if you notice,

858

the Giants had the same problem.

859

The football Giants of New York,

they had the same exact problem.

860

, They actually were up, what, 19 to like

three or six on the Broncos in the fourth

861

quarter walking into the fourth quarter.

862

The Giants had an incredible

lead on the Broncos, so it's

863

gonna be a perfect marriage.

864

They're twins.

865

Perfect, perfect.

866

They're saying that your boy, uh, the

OCS is gonna go with him, but we'll see.

867

Well.

868

No one else is going to hire him

with the damage he's doing right now.

869

He's going, well, they're

not saying that though.

870

They're like, they, they put

him in the conversation as if he

871

could get hired somewhere, so.

872

Well, no, what I'm saying is I don't

think any organization in their right mind

873

would hire him because he's going around

having like interviews on radio stations

874

and Oh, no, he's talking publicly.

875

Yeah.

876

He's like, you didn't

see the interview He did.

877

Where he's, he said, I know I could

have been a better coach for Lamar.

878

Could we have had a better relationship?

879

Yeah.

880

, Should I, do I regret, you know,

losing in the a FC championship in

881

2023 and not running the ball more?

882

Yeah, of course I do.

883

And I'm just like, bro, you coulda

just capped this for the world.

884

This is your oc, the

former, the Ravens oc?

885

Mm-hmm.

886

Yeah.

887

Who, who's like, I have heard

nothing about this Raven search,

888

like of any interest someone

said that they would like.

889

Steven a said that they would like to

see Raheem Morris go to the Ravens as a

890

head coach, as a what, as a head coach.

891

And then he said, but now he wants

to see, oh, Steven a don't even

892

know who the coaches, all that's

available unless one of his producers

893

tell him, please leave me alone.

894

So before we jump to the Ravens though,

about who do you wanna fill that spot?

895

Uh, talk, let's talk about this

Kevin Stefanski thing because,

896

so, you know, , we all know Kevin

Stefanski, two time coach of the

897

year, shout out the best coach ever.

898

He's the goat ever voted

Hall of Fame coach.

899

He's be, he turned it around in

Cleveland for about a couple seasons.

900

He went through like 11 Q quarterbacks

and, um, and so he's, he's.

901

Seen, I guess, as a great offensive mind.

902

I, I'm assuming.

903

Um, and so he ended up getting

the role, the getting the head

904

coaching position in Atlanta.

905

And, , there wasn't a great reaction.

906

, Social media had social media

things to say, but then Mr.

907

Baker Mayfield had felt a certain type

of way and he got on the Internets

908

and, , had, you know, he felt like

they threw him away like trash.

909

Mm-hmm.

910

And he's looking forward to seeing, uh hi

Stefanski twice as, twice a season now.

911

And he said I was shipped, I was

shipped away like a piece of trash.

912

Mm.

913

So he entered the chat on him.

914

Real quick, real quick.

915

So shout out to Baker.

916

You know, I'm not.

917

His biggest fan.

918

Oh, he say, shipped off

like a piece of garbage.

919

He, he, uh, he gets real sassy.

920

And this is a sassy one that I am,

that's, I don't really be liking him.

921

Like I don't like him, but yeah.

922

Oh, here it goes.

923

Here.

924

Baker Mayfield failed,

is quite the reach pal.

925

Still waiting on a text or call

from him after I got shipped

926

off, like a piece of garbage.

927

Can't wait to see you twice a year.

928

Coach.

929

If I was a funk, master flex, I'd

be like pushing the, the shop.

930

Bam, bam, bam, bam, bam.

931

Mm-hmm.

932

Mm-hmm.

933

Uh, yeah.

934

And then there's, there's some tone

deafness that has been, you know, uh,

935

we're, we're kind of, we just got rid

of Rahim and I'm gonna throw this guy in

936

who's been super disrespectful to, uh.

937

Shado Sanders.

938

Mm-hmm.

939

So there's been a bit of a little, if

it's ruffling, some feathers, we'll see.

940

We'll see it.

941

Like we might back out

if he continues to go on.

942

He better not mess with Bijan.

943

That's all we got to say about that.

944

Or anybody there.

945

Do you think that people who are saying,

and you, you know, you're, you know how

946

to be neutral, do you think that it's

wrong that people don't want him because

947

of the way that he treated Shaa wrong?

948

No, I don't think wrong.

949

Wrong, think he's more crazy.

950

I don't think it's wrong.

951

I don't, I don't, I didn't

like the way that they, he

952

treated, let me say it this way.

953

We don't know all the inner workings

that happened in that organization.

954

Like, he could have been told

to do certain things, so I just

955

wanna make that fairly clear.

956

Mm-hmm.

957

But the way that he coached him and

the decisions that were being made.

958

It just really didn't make a lot of sense.

959

Mm-hmm.

960

, Not having him on the field,

he's a starting quarterback.

961

Not having him on the field

for the first three or four

962

plays of a game was just weird.

963

So, I don't know, I, it could

just be a personality thing.

964

It could be like, yo, this isn't

quarterback that I want, and Okay.

965

Uh, but just don't mistreat

who you got down there.

966

That's all I'm said.

967

Mm-hmm.

968

'cause Bijan is a, talent,

is a generational talent.

969

So, and here's my thing.

970

Jim Schwartz was the head

coach of the Detroit Lions.

971

He went to Philadelphia Eagles

as the defensive coordinator,

972

won a Super Bowl there.

973

Left, , with the regime when

they decided to, , give Doug

974

Peterson his walking papers.

975

He went to Cleveland as a defensive

coordinator and the defensive, his

976

defensive team, his group do all right.

977

He has, that's who I want.

978

Exact leader.

979

That's who I want, is my head coach.

980

I know everybody keep asking me,

and that's who I actually want.

981

You want Jim Schwartz?

982

Mm-hmm.

983

That's interesting.

984

Talk to me about that.

985

He is from Baltimore.

986

Oh, he does give, he, he gives mm-hmm.

987

City boy vibes.

988

Mm-hmm.

989

I mess with Jim.

990

I mean, Jim, like anybody who gets

us the Super Bowl is a k in my book.

991

So I like Jim Schwartz.

992

. I like a DI want a defensive minded coach.

993

I wanna get back to our roots

of being a defensive team.

994

I think so.

995

The identity has been lost.

996

So things, as much as I'm okay with us

being a offensive led team because we

997

have a generational talent, and Lamar

Demetrius Jackson Junior, but I also

998

think Lamar could just be Lamar, right.

999

Without having to worry about,

without having to listen to

00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:23,129

all of these people in his ear.

00:47:24,149 --> 00:47:28,139

So I think if we were to get like

a Jim Schwartz or a Brian Flores, I

00:47:28,139 --> 00:47:31,659

don't think we're gonna get Brian, I

don't think we're going to get, okay.

00:47:32,259 --> 00:47:33,849

Um I like Brian Flores as well.

00:47:34,089 --> 00:47:37,699

I like him and I don't think we're

gonna get him, because he just

00:47:37,699 --> 00:47:40,219

did his second, I, he did his

second interview with Pittsburgh.

00:47:40,759 --> 00:47:44,059

But anyway, if I could choose,

it would be Brian Flores or

00:47:44,059 --> 00:47:46,619

Jim Schwartz, , to defense.

00:47:47,244 --> 00:47:49,384

I wanted Mike make the, well,

you know, originally I told you

00:47:49,384 --> 00:47:51,334

I wanted Clint Colby at Oh, no.

00:47:51,334 --> 00:47:51,694

Mm-hmm.

00:47:52,264 --> 00:47:54,244

I told you I wanted Cliff Kingsbury.

00:47:54,454 --> 00:47:54,994

Yes.

00:47:55,564 --> 00:47:57,964

See, I really thought

that's where he was going.

00:47:59,944 --> 00:48:00,754

Cliff Kingsbury.

00:48:00,934 --> 00:48:01,234

Mm-hmm.

00:48:01,319 --> 00:48:02,914

I thought he was going to the Ravens.

00:48:03,214 --> 00:48:04,624

Wait, has he been claimed by anybody else?

00:48:05,164 --> 00:48:05,494

Hmm?

00:48:06,334 --> 00:48:07,444

Has he been claimed by anybody else?

00:48:07,444 --> 00:48:07,864

I don't know.

00:48:07,864 --> 00:48:08,164

No.

00:48:08,164 --> 00:48:08,464

No.

00:48:08,464 --> 00:48:11,414

I, when he, they departed,

he departed ways.

00:48:11,444 --> 00:48:13,244

He departed ways with the commanders.

00:48:13,244 --> 00:48:16,124

I just knew that he was going

through doing our last podcast.

00:48:16,124 --> 00:48:16,394

Yeah.

00:48:16,694 --> 00:48:18,914

I was like, oh, this is

the Ravens right here.

00:48:18,914 --> 00:48:19,094

Me too.

00:48:19,724 --> 00:48:24,119

But they have to do their diligence

and there's a new set of coaches

00:48:24,119 --> 00:48:26,894

that are now available to interview.

00:48:27,344 --> 00:48:30,434

There gonna be another new set, right.

00:48:30,484 --> 00:48:32,864

, After this, , upcoming week.

00:48:33,164 --> 00:48:38,424

You think that, I mean, usually people

are poached off of the teams that gets

00:48:38,424 --> 00:48:43,734

the Super Bowl, but like, you know, I,

there was like a thing where you had

00:48:43,734 --> 00:48:48,444

to wait until cer a certain timeframe

to be able to reach out to coaches.

00:48:48,504 --> 00:48:48,894

Oh yeah.

00:48:48,894 --> 00:48:51,184

Because Kubiak is with,

the Seahawks, right?

00:48:51,424 --> 00:48:51,814

Yeah.

00:48:52,384 --> 00:48:52,679

Oh yeah.

00:48:52,684 --> 00:48:52,744

Yeah.

00:48:52,744 --> 00:48:57,664

And , , , Eric Bmy, like they had just

announced that Kansas City asked him

00:48:57,664 --> 00:49:02,104

to come in for an interview, which

would just be a steak dinner maybe

00:49:02,104 --> 00:49:05,074

at 15, 11, whatever they call it.

00:49:05,134 --> 00:49:06,064

00:49:06,244 --> 00:49:06,424

Yeah.

00:49:06,424 --> 00:49:07,894

They said he already signed his contract.

00:49:07,894 --> 00:49:08,404

He's back.

00:49:09,184 --> 00:49:10,264

I love that for him.

00:49:10,654 --> 00:49:12,274

I wanted him to be ROC,

00:49:16,564 --> 00:49:18,244

but I guess you can't have too much too.

00:49:20,254 --> 00:49:21,694

Too big of a stickler, I guess.

00:49:21,699 --> 00:49:23,419

What's up with your OC situation?

00:49:23,419 --> 00:49:26,059

Like, people are crashing out, so why?

00:49:26,059 --> 00:49:27,064

It's only been a couple days.

00:49:27,384 --> 00:49:27,769

I don't know why.

00:49:27,769 --> 00:49:34,399

People, if, if you, if you have any sort

of, uh, level of following football, why

00:49:34,399 --> 00:49:42,289

would you think that the former coach of

the Miami Dolphins would come to BROC when

00:49:42,289 --> 00:49:50,599

the, his former defensive coordinator left

after one year and cited that he felt like

00:49:50,599 --> 00:49:52,999

the, there, the culture was just, was.

00:49:53,959 --> 00:49:58,039

Too flexible, was it, there was no

structure at all in the locker room.

00:49:58,159 --> 00:49:59,389

He had a lot to say.

00:49:59,439 --> 00:50:02,794

, Our Vic Fangio, our defensive coordinator

had a, yeah, , they don't get along.

00:50:02,974 --> 00:50:04,204

They don't mess with each other.

00:50:04,474 --> 00:50:07,384

So why would they, we

already did that with Matt.

00:50:07,384 --> 00:50:09,034

Patricia and Darius Slay.

00:50:09,424 --> 00:50:12,214

And that was a player

to a coach having beef.

00:50:12,484 --> 00:50:14,494

Matt, Patricia was the defensive court.

00:50:14,524 --> 00:50:16,184

, Was, , when did y'all have met Patricia?

00:50:16,664 --> 00:50:20,684

He was in Detroit and it was the Super

Bowl after we won the Super Bowl.

00:50:21,344 --> 00:50:21,734

I'm sorry.

00:50:21,734 --> 00:50:26,414

After we went to the Super Bowl

and, , then we lost Gannon and

00:50:26,414 --> 00:50:28,184

Jonathan Gannon and, , Shane Steichen.

00:50:28,429 --> 00:50:35,054

So Matt, Patricia came in to, I

guess be an assistant coach to Nick

00:50:35,054 --> 00:50:37,334

Sirianni, whatever his role was.

00:50:37,394 --> 00:50:41,324

He was supposed to be in the, like , , the

room with, I guess with the defense.

00:50:41,924 --> 00:50:43,824

And, , he ended up.

00:50:44,469 --> 00:50:46,299

I mean he only lasts like a year with us.

00:50:46,299 --> 00:50:50,119

And then he went , and joined, I think

he's in college football now with Ohio.

00:50:50,119 --> 00:50:51,409

I think he's Ohio State.

00:50:52,099 --> 00:50:54,344

I wanna say he's Ohio State , intern.

00:50:55,124 --> 00:50:58,964

But Matt, Patricia was with us, but

there was a beef between Patricia

00:50:58,964 --> 00:51:01,994

and Slay when Slay and him when

Slay was his player in Detroit.

00:51:02,199 --> 00:51:06,944

'cause Mape believe he was a coach

for a season or two in Detroit and

00:51:07,424 --> 00:51:09,224

it was kind of weird and awkward.

00:51:09,254 --> 00:51:12,344

Can you imagine a coaching staff

where you want Joie to hopefully

00:51:12,344 --> 00:51:13,664

hang around for two seasons?

00:51:13,664 --> 00:51:14,294

A minimum.

00:51:14,804 --> 00:51:19,814

I would take any random off the

street OEE over anybody who's gonna

00:51:19,814 --> 00:51:22,334

make Vic Fangio get be annoyed.

00:51:22,664 --> 00:51:24,284

Like that's not how we're going roll.

00:51:24,284 --> 00:51:27,794

So that would be some

bring a MO type stuff.

00:51:28,154 --> 00:51:30,044

I do think though that the, that.

00:51:31,214 --> 00:51:33,914

Day ball is, is who I was

hearing as the front runner for

00:51:33,914 --> 00:51:35,744

the OC position in, in Philly.

00:51:36,194 --> 00:51:39,194

I think it's so weird when people

do that, like do that whole

00:51:39,194 --> 00:51:41,924

like in, um, conference thing.

00:51:42,089 --> 00:51:44,204

I don't, I, it's just weird to

me and maybe it's 'cause I'm a

00:51:44,204 --> 00:51:46,244

Taurus, but my thing is like,

00:51:46,324 --> 00:51:49,384

i'm not hiring , nobody that was

with the Giants, with the Cowboys.

00:51:51,494 --> 00:51:53,714

There's insights that can be had.

00:51:54,224 --> 00:51:54,374

Yeah.

00:51:54,914 --> 00:51:58,874

But the doll day ball thing is that

Oh, he wasn't, he's not a bad coach.

00:51:59,174 --> 00:52:02,204

But no, I mean, the day, the

thing , is that day ball coached

00:52:02,534 --> 00:52:05,174

Jalen in college and then No.

00:52:05,179 --> 00:52:05,339

Mm-hmm.

00:52:05,819 --> 00:52:12,254

Sirianni, he was, Sirianni, I think

was worked for him in Kansas City

00:52:12,254 --> 00:52:15,914

on his offensive Co when he was

the OC or something like that.

00:52:15,914 --> 00:52:17,954

So I think there's just a, so

that, I mean, it makes sense.

00:52:17,954 --> 00:52:18,224

Yeah.

00:52:18,224 --> 00:52:19,634

It was just more of connecting.

00:52:20,054 --> 00:52:20,264

Yeah.

00:52:20,264 --> 00:52:22,994

'cause Jaylen went played

for him in Alabama.

00:52:22,994 --> 00:52:27,284

, Yeah, so I think this how secretive

it is and everyone's really nervous

00:52:27,314 --> 00:52:28,844

'cause we want a really good candidate.

00:52:28,844 --> 00:52:31,154

So hopefully we'll get a good candidate.

00:52:32,094 --> 00:52:34,029

, I hope y'all get a good candidate.

00:52:34,164 --> 00:52:36,774

I hope we get like a super solid, solid.

00:52:37,074 --> 00:52:40,434

People are trying to say Joe

Brady, I guess from the Bills,

00:52:40,554 --> 00:52:43,674

, especially the way that they, the

ownership just talked about them.

00:52:43,884 --> 00:52:44,634

I don't know, man.

00:52:44,634 --> 00:52:45,744

He might be a free agent.

00:52:46,044 --> 00:52:49,044

Do you think it would be smart though,

for the bills to bring back, , day ball?

00:52:51,324 --> 00:52:51,474

Mm,

00:52:55,224 --> 00:52:55,674

no.

00:52:55,674 --> 00:52:59,869

Nah, I'm really, I'm con

like, , I felt like I don't know

00:52:59,869 --> 00:53:01,009

nothing about the bills today.

00:53:02,164 --> 00:53:04,384

I was like, oh, that's how

y'all act up in Buffalo.

00:53:07,294 --> 00:53:10,264

They got that new park

that their new, , stadium.

00:53:10,594 --> 00:53:11,794

They don't know how to act.

00:53:11,794 --> 00:53:12,754

They act rural.

00:53:13,114 --> 00:53:13,534

So, and bogie, huh?

00:53:13,534 --> 00:53:13,654

Maybe.

00:53:14,524 --> 00:53:15,694

You said the prices done already?

00:53:15,694 --> 00:53:16,744

Went up on the seats.

00:53:18,514 --> 00:53:20,554

I said, oh, Lord of Mercy.

00:53:20,644 --> 00:53:24,424

Um, all right, so Arizona

Cardinals position is still open.

00:53:24,634 --> 00:53:26,134

It's not very highly coveted.

00:53:26,464 --> 00:53:29,314

Uh, but we'll see who ends up there.

00:53:30,244 --> 00:53:34,714

But Las Vegas Raiders, Tom Brady had

candidates coming down to visit him,

00:53:34,714 --> 00:53:38,449

uh, when he was at the, uh, my, the CFT.

00:53:38,469 --> 00:53:39,924

Did they even announce that?

00:53:40,344 --> 00:53:40,644

Huh?

00:53:41,154 --> 00:53:42,984

They even, did they even

announce their interviews?

00:53:43,569 --> 00:53:45,279

No, I haven't heard anything.

00:53:45,279 --> 00:53:48,849

But they did say the candidates

were encouraged to meet Brady

00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:51,099

at the Miami Indiana game.

00:53:51,879 --> 00:53:57,669

Uh, Browns, uh, obviously Mike Aniel

took, withdrew his name from that search.

00:53:57,849 --> 00:53:59,289

The Pittsburgh Steelers.

00:53:59,649 --> 00:54:04,959

I, so Brian Flores, you know, is

the Miami Viking, I'm sorry, is the

00:54:04,959 --> 00:54:07,899

Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator.

00:54:07,929 --> 00:54:10,989

That's the same position

that Mike Tomlin had, right?

00:54:11,199 --> 00:54:11,319

Mm-hmm.

00:54:11,619 --> 00:54:13,089

Before he was hired.

00:54:13,174 --> 00:54:17,709

And so I'm curious if there's gonna

be a little bit of a continuity

00:54:17,709 --> 00:54:19,809

there, but Brian Flores, I

think that's what it's gonna be.

00:54:19,989 --> 00:54:22,509

00:54:22,689 --> 00:54:26,769

Um, and so we gonna pray for him

and hope he gets that Buffalo

00:54:26,769 --> 00:54:28,059

Bills, you hear that too?

00:54:28,384 --> 00:54:28,674

Pack.

00:54:30,234 --> 00:54:31,224

I'm talking to Tua.

00:54:31,524 --> 00:54:31,824

Oh.

00:54:32,004 --> 00:54:38,184

Mm mm And, uh, anyway, so Buffalo

Bills, uh, they've got, uh, day

00:54:38,184 --> 00:54:42,474

balls as being rumored, but I

don't know that, I don't know.

00:54:42,474 --> 00:54:44,724

I like seeing what he did with the Giants.

00:54:44,784 --> 00:54:48,534

I would feel if you, if he like, why

would you hire him back as a head coach

00:54:48,534 --> 00:54:50,244

after what he just did with the Giants?

00:54:50,334 --> 00:54:51,144

I just,

00:54:53,454 --> 00:54:57,714

but that's what I'm saying,

like mediocrity, like Mm girl.

00:54:57,714 --> 00:54:58,254

Yes.

00:54:58,584 --> 00:55:03,494

But, I will say someone who follows

the organization a little bit closely.

00:55:03,494 --> 00:55:08,804

Just talked actually about Joe Shane and

how he's really good at finding talent.

00:55:09,284 --> 00:55:11,534

And to be fair, , the Giants.

00:55:13,004 --> 00:55:14,594

All of a sudden they're stacked.

00:55:14,774 --> 00:55:18,044

And me and you talked about this,

that they look like they could

00:55:18,044 --> 00:55:19,814

contend if they had the right coach.

00:55:19,904 --> 00:55:21,374

I don't know.

00:55:21,374 --> 00:55:24,224

But that's what's crazy is that we

talked about it before Hardball went

00:55:24,224 --> 00:55:29,144

there, and I'm so irritated that

I called it before he went there.

00:55:30,014 --> 00:55:30,729

Oh God.

00:55:31,184 --> 00:55:31,964

I said it though.

00:55:31,964 --> 00:55:34,604

I said The Giants are gonna be a problem.

00:55:35,774 --> 00:55:37,994

And I said it before her ball went there.

00:55:38,774 --> 00:55:40,899

So I will say that's, am

I regretting it or No?

00:55:42,999 --> 00:55:43,269

Whatever.

00:55:43,269 --> 00:55:43,869

We didn't know.

00:55:43,869 --> 00:55:46,959

We didn't know , that the Ravens

were gonna do that though, did we?

00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:53,014

I hate the feeling, but I wasn't,

but I wouldn't have thought, I

00:55:53,014 --> 00:55:55,959

wasn't confident that Harbaugh would

be the one to go to the Giants.

00:55:55,989 --> 00:55:57,189

You know, I don't know why.

00:55:57,189 --> 00:55:58,059

I just didn't,

00:56:00,699 --> 00:56:03,699

I would've thought that he

would've wanted to go south.

00:56:05,994 --> 00:56:10,644

Hardball wants to go where hard ball's

gonna look good and where it's easy,

00:56:11,184 --> 00:56:16,554

his job is already done for him in,

at the Giants, be pretty, walk around.

00:56:16,584 --> 00:56:19,614

He's a good looking man, so he can

just kind of walk around and be pretty.

00:56:19,809 --> 00:56:20,229

Mm-hmm.

00:56:20,529 --> 00:56:26,244

And lifting 200 pounds, it's a rough,

it's, it is a very rough media market.

00:56:26,304 --> 00:56:26,784

Oh baby.

00:56:26,784 --> 00:56:31,759

That market is going to, they eat you

up , and I mean, look at Mike Brown.

00:56:31,789 --> 00:56:34,489

He, they don't even, they're not

even giving him a full season before.

00:56:34,489 --> 00:56:37,939

They're talking about Mike Brown, the

head coach of the Knicks need to leave.

00:56:38,599 --> 00:56:41,329

I'm like, this man does have some

rings on under him though, right.

00:56:41,629 --> 00:56:45,379

, Yeah, I don't under, I

understand what I understand you.

00:56:45,379 --> 00:56:49,969

Everybody's so quick to wanna fire

somebody without just giving it time.

00:56:49,999 --> 00:56:51,859

But again, the Knicks, I mean,

00:56:53,869 --> 00:56:56,029

it's just a different

organization than , when I was.

00:56:56,614 --> 00:56:57,274

A fan.

00:56:57,499 --> 00:56:58,834

It was just, it was different.

00:56:58,954 --> 00:57:00,264

But I digress.

00:57:00,594 --> 00:57:04,344

I was, I'm a Pat Riley stand, so

I messed with Pat Riley and them.

00:57:04,344 --> 00:57:07,254

So next one that's still up for grabs.

00:57:07,304 --> 00:57:08,984

So Eagles, oc, we just talked about that.

00:57:08,984 --> 00:57:13,574

Commanders OC and DC didn't they just,

I feel like they just filled , a role,

00:57:13,664 --> 00:57:18,734

, the commanders filled one of their

positions that they were hiring for.

00:57:19,124 --> 00:57:19,754

Oh, I forgot.

00:57:20,234 --> 00:57:22,934

I think on the OC side

it must have been the oc.
