Speaker 1: The Around the NFL Podcast. He is bringing in Jim
Speaker 1: Cheebow for a workout. Welcome back to another edition to
Speaker 1: the Around the NFL Podcast. My name is Dan Jansas
Speaker 1: and I am joined by the room filled with heroes,
Speaker 1: Mark Sessler, Chris Westling and Greg ros It thought. What's up? Boys?
Speaker 1: Oh you if you heard little little pop a little
Speaker 1: pop in uh Westling's drawl just now, it's because vacation day,
Speaker 1: big guy. Hello seniors, major case of seniors. Senior. Right
Speaker 1: is west leaving for Tybee Island phoning it in all day.
Speaker 1: Hey Dan, his his liver may never be the same
Speaker 1: west Uh tell us a little bit about your Tybe
Speaker 1: trimp coming up. Well, my liver will be fine. It's
Speaker 1: been conditioned by Tybee, which is the most self indulgent
Speaker 1: place on earth as far as I know. All you
Speaker 1: have to do on Tybee is go to the beach,
Speaker 1: hang out at huckapoos, and make fun of tours for
Speaker 1: new listeners. This is year old, uh place of residence
Speaker 1: for how many years? Seven years or some seven and
Speaker 1: a half year until the NFL Media news group plucked
Speaker 1: you up at the long arm of Greg Rosenthal. What
Speaker 1: uh tds queuing up the Chris Westling uh philosophical music.
Speaker 1: So speak philosophically about Tybee what it means? I you know,
Speaker 1: I think if you read Joseph Campbell, who you know
Speaker 1: speaking of philosophy, B making different guy. You know, you
Speaker 1: you have to leave home to become a man. And
Speaker 1: that's when I became a man. I think growing up
Speaker 1: in Ohio. You know, you're stuck in this provincial town.
Speaker 1: You don't learn things on your own, you know, try things.
Speaker 1: You have to go away. And I went to Tybee
Speaker 1: became a man, and uh, you became a man on
Speaker 1: the most self indulgent spot. Well, I survived. I survived.
Speaker 1: I had no inkling that I might become a writer
Speaker 1: when I moved to Tybee, I was. I had just
Speaker 1: started to deliver. I got a job with Pizza Hut
Speaker 1: delivering pizza's. I ever actually delivered the pizza because I
Speaker 1: got bronchitis. And Greg contacted me like that day, asking
Speaker 1: if I wanted to work for rodor World. By framing
Speaker 1: yourself within the Joseph Campbell context, you've essentially called yourself
Speaker 1: the centerpiece of the hero's journey. Aren't we all in
Speaker 1: our own Yes? But that's that's what's happening here. That's
Speaker 1: I believe it wasn't rescue rescue the situation here. What
Speaker 1: are your thoughts right now? It would be great to
Speaker 1: actually have a spinoff podcast. West and sess tok philosophy.
Speaker 1: I like it. High download numbers, I would I think
Speaker 1: it would get downloads. Dan, I'm saying high download number.
Speaker 1: I think it would. I was being dead serious. Well,
Speaker 1: not really, not big show coming up today. We got
Speaker 1: a big one. Um. Not a lot of news that
Speaker 1: has slowed down obviously in terms of what's happening in
Speaker 1: the NFL post owners meetings, post Combine, pre draft. However,
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean we don't have a lot to talk about.
Speaker 1: We're going to get into. So a nice piece that
Speaker 1: Chris Westling wrote up and I did read it Greg
Speaker 1: about top NFL records that can go down this season,
Speaker 1: NFL records high, you know, the type of records that
Speaker 1: people talk about. West laid out a bunch of players
Speaker 1: who have a chance to break some big time records.
Speaker 1: And then the rest of us, Mark, Greg and myself
Speaker 1: will you know, throwing a couple of our own maybe
Speaker 1: if anybody thought of any um, so we'll get into
Speaker 1: that and uh, you know, whatever else tickles our fancy,
Speaker 1: you know, some jibber jabber basically on a slow news
Speaker 1: thing in the NFL. Lots of fun, yeah, a lot
Speaker 1: of fun and TV behind the glass. How you doing, buddy?
Speaker 1: What's going on? Guys? And I gotta say my favorite
Speaker 1: problem of the show now is Greg's reaction once I
Speaker 1: played the money drop at the top, because Greg gives
Speaker 1: this one second facial review of what he thinks about
Speaker 1: it today, it was like a little head not to Mark,
Speaker 1: who acknowledged. I was like, yeah, that's cool, that's all
Speaker 1: right now, that wasn't It wasn't okay, one, that's funny.
Speaker 1: Drop is also about when you check out whoa oh man, Hey, hey,
Speaker 1: well Ion said the money. The money tag is my
Speaker 1: favorite part of the show. It's I think, you know
Speaker 1: you look forward to Yeah, I look forward to signature. Yeah.
Speaker 1: It's just a nice strong It changes every time. So
Speaker 1: it's funny because I wait for my queue to start
Speaker 1: the intro of the show, so I never, very very
Speaker 1: rarely doesn't even like pop in my head what it was.
Speaker 1: I don't even know what it was today. What was it?
Speaker 1: It said, we're gonna have Tim Tebow in for a workout.
Speaker 1: Oh well that's not true. Uh titt. Let's let's do
Speaker 1: some news. That was a good one shown behind the glass.
Speaker 1: That was his master work. Is that correct? Well, Sean
Speaker 1: just me liked it. You know. It's like snort move
Speaker 1: the Belichick passive aggressive flem move Flembo I call him basically,
Speaker 1: you know, lifting his leg up on the reporters. That's
Speaker 1: his that's offensive. That's your hero, Greg. By the way,
Speaker 1: he's a genius um. All right, So let's a lot
Speaker 1: of nasal problems. Fair enough, let's get into some news.
Speaker 1: Will start with a player, Rolando McClean, who actually visited.
Speaker 1: He made a visit to the Throne of Ease, and
Speaker 1: you would think once you walk into the castle, you
Speaker 1: don't leave. But he did leave without a contract and
Speaker 1: ended up going back and ending up with his old
Speaker 1: team who is now his current team again. Rolando McClain
Speaker 1: and the Cowboys have reached a one year contract where
Speaker 1: three million in bass salary and another one million in
Speaker 1: playing playtime incentives. According to NFL Media's Albert Brier, this
Speaker 1: went down on Wednesday. The former first round linebacker, as
Speaker 1: I said, visited the Patriots, but decided to stay in Dallas.
Speaker 1: Uh Mrs McClain Mark Sessler coming off a year or
Speaker 1: he bounced back and and got his career back on track.
Speaker 1: And now he's got a one year deal. Not a
Speaker 1: lot of security, but up to four million dollars. Not
Speaker 1: bad for a guy that was a washout. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: I know the Patriots were in the mix, but I
Speaker 1: guess if you're McLean, or if you're his agent, you
Speaker 1: want to have him go back to the only place
Speaker 1: that's worked, and that was Dallas. I think Dallas probably
Speaker 1: they want him back because they can put him in
Speaker 1: the middle, move Shaun Lee over, get him out of
Speaker 1: drop Shawn Lee back more and not having his injury
Speaker 1: prone But McLean, you know in the article we coffees
Speaker 1: had two failed retirements. Okay, so you can get him
Speaker 1: on the field and get them to work anywhere. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't go change it up and start over somewhere else.
Speaker 1: I thought the Cowboys were gonna have a worse linebacker corps.
Speaker 1: A couple of weeks ago, you know, they had lost
Speaker 1: Justin Durant. Looked like McClean wasn't coming back. Greece. Carter's
Speaker 1: gone called Bruce Carter is going and now they have
Speaker 1: an upgraded I mean, if Sean Lee can stay healthy,
Speaker 1: you've got mcclan and Anthony Hitchins, who as a rookie
Speaker 1: last year was really strong against the run. He probably
Speaker 1: got more money from the Cowboys, has a little bit
Speaker 1: of incentives. And there's a logical starting job with Dallas.
Speaker 1: There wasn't with New England. If everyone was healthy. If
Speaker 1: Gerard Mayo is healthy, don the height Tour was healthy,
Speaker 1: I think claim would have just been a backup who
Speaker 1: needs him? Jerk the moving on. The Baltimore Ravens have
Speaker 1: added another quarterback, his name noted around the NFL punching bag,
Speaker 1: Matt Shob who sides a one year deal where three
Speaker 1: million dollars. He most likely unless he gets beat out
Speaker 1: in camp again, which is happens a lot with mattch Shop.
Speaker 1: Let's face it will be the backup to Joe Flacco
Speaker 1: this season, getting the giving the team a veteran option
Speaker 1: behind their iron man quarterback. Flacco has never missed a
Speaker 1: start since entering the league regular season and playoffs, So uh,
Speaker 1: if you want to this is one of the cushiest
Speaker 1: gigs in the NFL. Potentially sliding into a veteran backup,
Speaker 1: making nice, nice little bank as the backup to Joe Flacco.
Speaker 1: Chris Wesley. Yeah, I think there's a major difference between
Speaker 1: what the Raiders did last year trading for him, giving
Speaker 1: him eight million guaranteed upfront, proclaiming him a guy who
Speaker 1: can lead us to the playoffs, and calling him a
Speaker 1: guy on bar with Philip Rivers and Peyton Manning, and
Speaker 1: then the Ravens just say, oh, we're gonna sit him
Speaker 1: on the bench behind a guy who never misses again.
Speaker 1: By the way, the guy that was responsible for all
Speaker 1: that build up still employed as a general manager for
Speaker 1: that well, there are certain people in this room who
Speaker 1: think he's a good general manager. That's not true at all.
Speaker 1: I just like, you know, poking you in the ribs
Speaker 1: by pointing out Reggie mackenzie. They had a good draft
Speaker 1: last year. If if John Schneider someone else drafted, had
Speaker 1: those two picks and got mac and Carr, we'd be
Speaker 1: singing their praises. I Schnyder wouldn't have Khalil mack because
Speaker 1: he doesn't finish with two. He did. They didn't have
Speaker 1: a good record the first well, John Schneider doesn't have
Speaker 1: to go out and cut the entire free agency class
Speaker 1: that he overpaid last spring. So fair, no more. Antonio
Speaker 1: Smith another one? God yeah that last doing a great
Speaker 1: job last year. Maurice Jones. Drew said Matt shop can
Speaker 1: lead us to the super Bowl, and a month later
Speaker 1: Lamar Woodley said, Oh yeah, We're definitely going to the playoffs.
Speaker 1: All three of the people involved in that sentence have
Speaker 1: been cut a year after they were signed. Fine backup though,
Speaker 1: why not? Mark wrote a a wrote a piece on
Speaker 1: the around the NFL site today. Great great piece. Trendis
Speaker 1: in fact, he spoke. He wrote about Matt shob explaining, Hey,
Speaker 1: hey does t was that accurate? Hey? Hey does that
Speaker 1: was okay for everyone? Uh? This is what he had
Speaker 1: to say to the Hayds. I had a rough year.
Speaker 1: I learned from it. I've got a lot of football
Speaker 1: left in me. Oh they're referring to the last year
Speaker 1: the year before. Well they actually weren't clear about that
Speaker 1: in the piece, but he could ask he could talk
Speaker 1: to either. Only through ten passes last year, and two
Speaker 1: of them were picks. The year before, he set an
Speaker 1: NFL record for pick sixes and four straight games. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is the time of year where it gets sketchy
Speaker 1: writing these articles because you've got John Harbaugh coming out
Speaker 1: and saying what a great fit he's gonna be, and
Speaker 1: you've got match Shops saying I got a lot left
Speaker 1: to me and we have to eight basically five months
Speaker 1: to make it all not true, which it isn't true.
Speaker 1: And last offseason we heard the Raiders calling Matt Shop
Speaker 1: right up there with Philip Rivers, I would take him
Speaker 1: over ten backups that could come. I mean, what have
Speaker 1: you seen on film and last two years it would
Speaker 1: lead you to say that nothing in particular. By the way,
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna step in right now, maybe the first
Speaker 1: time it's ever happened. I'm just gonna throw out a
Speaker 1: news item and just throw it to you guys out
Speaker 1: of nowhere. I'm not comfortable with this, but we're not
Speaker 1: exactly college football experts, but I feel like we should discuss.
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston had his pro day this week. Count coming
Speaker 1: out of it, Mike Mayock said he's not sure if
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston is going to be, you know, the number
Speaker 1: one pick. He's not there yet a lot of discouragement
Speaker 1: about this. Jamis Winston Pro Day. Dan's making a face.
Speaker 1: West doesn't like pro days at all. He just ranted
Speaker 1: about it yesterday. I had to listen to music just
Speaker 1: to avoid the Pro Day. What do we think? This
Speaker 1: is what I think anybody that knows college football, which
Speaker 1: is not really this room, myself included obviously, but they
Speaker 1: tell you that if you really want to get a
Speaker 1: get a guy right in the draft, don't worry about
Speaker 1: the Pro Day or the combine so much. Look at
Speaker 1: the tape and you know, Teddy Bridgewater last year is
Speaker 1: the ultimate example. Uh, the guy that had such a
Speaker 1: bad Pro Day he almost fell out of the first round.
Speaker 1: And now a lot of people, uh, including Greg it's
Speaker 1: his boy, straight up Teddy Bridgewater. So I'm not am
Speaker 1: I gonna get worked up about a stupid Pro day?
Speaker 1: Who cares? If only we had I care as much
Speaker 1: as a match shop signing thirty games of tape to
Speaker 1: just grade Jameis Winston on instead of what he did
Speaker 1: against No Defense and the other issue with the Pro Day,
Speaker 1: and the people were freaking out about this yesterday. Don't
Speaker 1: you're in your home place, You're with all your your people.
Speaker 1: It should be an absolute home run. Just make it
Speaker 1: as simple as possible to make these guys look good,
Speaker 1: and they put him through a hundred plus throws. It
Speaker 1: was an outrageous work out. He was sweating like a
Speaker 1: crazy man. What you didn't help him? Brooms, things being
Speaker 1: thrown at him. I would say the last two days
Speaker 1: of Twitter, between the Pro Day and April Fools Shenanigans,
Speaker 1: have been the two worst back to back Twitter days
Speaker 1: in a long time. Will I really check out on
Speaker 1: a fortnight long bender? I really just brought this up
Speaker 1: because I kind of wanted to hear West rant about
Speaker 1: prow days in general theast. You know what, I can
Speaker 1: see timing guys in the forty or whatever in a
Speaker 1: pro day, but a quarterbacks pro day. Didn't we learn
Speaker 1: from the mistakes of last year. Everybody's gotta pipe down
Speaker 1: on April Fools Day, by the way. You know, it's
Speaker 1: something that it ends up usually just singling out someone
Speaker 1: for ridicule and then everyone laughing at them, and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not you know, I'm not saying that.
Speaker 1: You know, I have a history of playing the fool
Speaker 1: in the on this day, but I don't like it.
Speaker 1: That's where I stand. What do you mean, what don't
Speaker 1: you like you don't like anyone doing these these Like
Speaker 1: Greg Jettings said he was going to sign with the team,
Speaker 1: and even though we thought it was probably an aprils,
Speaker 1: we did have to monitor his Twitter account just to
Speaker 1: make sure. I remember when we were kids and people
Speaker 1: used to play tricks on each other like prank's. Now
Speaker 1: it's like April Liars Day. I wish you weren't. Everyone's like, oh,
Speaker 1: I just lied about something. That's a good trick, but
Speaker 1: it's not. Sometimes things, magical things happen on April Fool's Day,
Speaker 1: like Dan created his own video today of fellow NFL employee.
Speaker 1: Social media grew with Dwayne Munt trying to put out
Speaker 1: a helmet unsucceeded. Couldn't he couldn't get his helmet off?
Speaker 1: Is that? What is the name of the video? People
Speaker 1: should watch this mo money more problems. His last name
Speaker 1: m u N and I'll tweet it out. Um yeah.
Speaker 1: And Greg Jennings, by the way, I my first things
Speaker 1: think is to bury him, because it's like, Greg, stop
Speaker 1: propping yourself up, as you know, a key figure in
Speaker 1: the NFL in two thousand fifteen. But I guess he
Speaker 1: was just having some fun. I don't want to get
Speaker 1: too heavy on the guy. Yeah, but it's another example
Speaker 1: that if anything got worse because of Twitter, it was
Speaker 1: April Fool's Day, because you know Greg's up at midnight
Speaker 1: and monitoring Greg Jennings Twitter feed. There are better things
Speaker 1: to do with one's life. Greg. Okay, if I move
Speaker 1: on with the script, Yeah, that's fine. I enjoyed that
Speaker 1: we got it was perfect, good, good bit. Uh, moving on.
Speaker 1: Kurt Warner is a NFL media analyst, but you may
Speaker 1: know him also as a former League m v P
Speaker 1: Super Bowl m v P. He's one of one of
Speaker 1: a cadre. Is that good. It's a good way to pronounce,
Speaker 1: but of QB gurus that have been working with Colin
Speaker 1: Kaepernick h during the off season, attempting to get the
Speaker 1: quarterback to find some consistency in his game. After an offseason,
Speaker 1: Warner on NFL Network on Wednesday explained where he's at
Speaker 1: with Kaepernick after there, I guess they're done training now. Basically,
Speaker 1: the gist of it was they need to figure out
Speaker 1: a way where Colin Kaepernick needs to figure out a
Speaker 1: way to balance his athleticism and being a quarterback. And
Speaker 1: the the interesting thing I took out of it was
Speaker 1: Warner saying, when I was a player, I wasn't an athlete,
Speaker 1: so I was just worried about being a quarterback. Kaepernick
Speaker 1: needs to find that balot of being an athlete at quarterback.
Speaker 1: And in a little Kaepernick news, his UH two thousand
Speaker 1: fifteen salary became fully guaranteed on Wednesday, so he's locked
Speaker 1: in for twelve million this year. West. Do you think
Speaker 1: we're gonna see a jump in Kaepernick's ability or numbers
Speaker 1: this year and as a player, or we've already seen
Speaker 1: the best of Colin Kaepernick. I have no idea. All Right,
Speaker 1: we'll be back on Monday with another go ahead. I
Speaker 1: like this analysis better when I wrote it last November.
Speaker 1: Kurt Warner says the same thing I wrote. We both
Speaker 1: worked in grocery store analysis. The only difference is he's
Speaker 1: won a couple of Super Bowls and played in the NFL.
Speaker 1: I think making scratch, like Kurt wonder if I played football.
Speaker 1: To be fair to you, he only won one super Bowl,
Speaker 1: so he's only one ahead of you. All Right, he's
Speaker 1: still got a chance. He's still got a chance. Dan, Yeah,
Speaker 1: way to play with me like that man? That was
Speaker 1: not fair. Get my hypes up. I thought the show
Speaker 1: was over. Oh wow, Aper fills guys April hilarious. Every
Speaker 1: day he takes you one step closer to Brian Billick
Speaker 1: being chained to the studio doing the podcast for eighteen minutes,
Speaker 1: looking at his watch the whole time. It's coming back,
Speaker 1: coming back in three months. I do want to go
Speaker 1: back and look at Kaepernick this offseason. We got some
Speaker 1: time and why Much with a taser in his back? Billok,
Speaker 1: straight up chain to the desk and and TD loving
Speaker 1: at all because it's an eighteen Do they know your name?
Speaker 1: I know you work with him? Do they know your name?
Speaker 1: Will take you out of at a grocery store where
Speaker 1: they recognize you? I said Much a week ago talking
Speaker 1: about game changes. That's my boy, man. Well, Much is
Speaker 1: recognized as one of the best guys um in terms
Speaker 1: of the on camera talent behind the scenes. I don't
Speaker 1: I don't know, but we're not Billick, Bills not gonna
Speaker 1: recognize you what that's my boy, Brian, Mr Mr. He
Speaker 1: called him Brian, Brian. Mark your thoughts on Colin Kaepernick
Speaker 1: in I like the fact that he's you know that
Speaker 1: warners working with this offshoot collection of rebel signal callers
Speaker 1: or as you said, cadre. Good for him seeking out
Speaker 1: help because the one problem I think he faces is
Speaker 1: an offensive coaching staff that, outside of losing Greg Roman
Speaker 1: and Jim Harbaugh, has no new faces to help him
Speaker 1: along or show him in anything new that Forts needed
Speaker 1: to go out and get people to press him and
Speaker 1: push him and show him how to play the position
Speaker 1: from a different angle, and they didn't do that. I
Speaker 1: think we're gonna do a series in July or so
Speaker 1: kind of players under pressure, just for a week, not
Speaker 1: a big making the leap type of thing, but one
Speaker 1: of them has got to be Kaepernick. I want to
Speaker 1: go back and watch him. Maybe I'll maybe I'll write
Speaker 1: the Kaepernick one because I want to see what went wrong,
Speaker 1: because his stats aren't really that much worse, but just
Speaker 1: my memory and my notes and everything from the year,
Speaker 1: it felt like he took a pretty big step back.
Speaker 1: I think their line was not what he played with
Speaker 1: the year before that either that was part of it.
Speaker 1: He was one of the I think he led the
Speaker 1: league or second in the league and sack, but he
Speaker 1: exacerbated that yet by what Kurt Warner talked about he
Speaker 1: doesn't know whether to be a quarterback or an athlete.
Speaker 1: He doesn't know when to hang in there and go
Speaker 1: through his reads or not. Mark Sessler wrote a piece today,
Speaker 1: Marcus cranking away. I don't know what happened today, guys busy.
Speaker 1: The Dallas Cowboys have reached across the Atlantic for their
Speaker 1: next big find. According to Mark, the team has signed
Speaker 1: British player a f Obadas. That pronounced correctly, Mark, I
Speaker 1: think you spelled it correctly. I don't know how it's pronounced,
Speaker 1: just n into. By the way. The Nigerian name alright,
Speaker 1: very good after the defensive end. He appeared in five
Speaker 1: games for the London Warriors last year of the British
Speaker 1: American Football Association National Leagues. They got a shorten that mofo.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what this all according to nfl uk
Speaker 1: dot com. And by the way, the UK, not just London,
Speaker 1: not England. And you know, certainly you know Scotland's involved
Speaker 1: in Wales and Northern Ireland and certainly not the place
Speaker 1: you brought up, West Guernsey, not in the mix. I
Speaker 1: was on that. Uh so, yeah, that's going on. So
Speaker 1: you know, I figured we have a strong listenership in
Speaker 1: the UK. So if you know anything about f A
Speaker 1: obadably pretty excited right now, or if the band Fenel,
Speaker 1: or if you worked with him at the warehouse where
Speaker 1: he was a warehouse Grace Foods outside of London, a
Speaker 1: warehouse stockman. Well, I had you do this piece, Mark
Speaker 1: because I thought there were some similarities between you and
Speaker 1: f A you know both, you know, traveling around Nigerian
Speaker 1: I love football, but kind of wandering through difficult jobs.
Speaker 1: And then the NFL comes Colin with the big opportunity.
Speaker 1: You took advantage of it. Will will A well he
Speaker 1: I mean that's right. My side of the story has
Speaker 1: been successful. His to come and I'll continue to write
Speaker 1: about him. The odds are similar. Um moving forward. Uh, Finally,
Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski is continuing continuing, this is like everything that's
Speaker 1: happened since the Super Bowl is the pre party for
Speaker 1: the summer of Gronk. So this is the pre party
Speaker 1: going on. He was on Jim Rome the Jim Rome
Speaker 1: Show recently, and Jim, who's still at it all these
Speaker 1: years later, is asking the Patriots tight end who is
Speaker 1: his dreams spouse? Um. Actually, the way the question was
Speaker 1: framed was if there was a woman clad in a
Speaker 1: red swimsuit that would save you in the ocean. Who
Speaker 1: would it be? And this is what Grant had to
Speaker 1: say eloquently, are um, Margot, Robbie, you know that lady
Speaker 1: off the Wolf of Wall Street? Yes? Yes, yes, all right?
Speaker 1: That one? Why why that one? Uh? I watched The
Speaker 1: Wolf of all Street and I was like, damn, man's
Speaker 1: a genius. Also was asked about who is dream spouse
Speaker 1: would be? Uh So, ladies, pay attention to this part.
Speaker 1: All right, you really want me to describe? Lay it out?
Speaker 1: Bro all right, clean's cooks, makes big cash, stays at home,
Speaker 1: lets me do whatever I want? All right? Does that
Speaker 1: seem mark? Does that seem fair to look for someone
Speaker 1: that cleans cooks, makes big cash, stays at home, and
Speaker 1: lets me do whatever I want. I like the idea
Speaker 1: of a woman making big cash because she should be
Speaker 1: paid anything. We're paid to do the same job. She
Speaker 1: stayed at home making cash. Well, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: people that work from home. I mean, the idea that
Speaker 1: someone would have to sit in an office chair every
Speaker 1: single day is antiquated. It reminded me of the spammers
Speaker 1: in each of our NFL dot com articles, like my
Speaker 1: brother in law makes seventy an hour working from home.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's what he's looking for, that spammer. How great
Speaker 1: is it to be grant that you just say anything
Speaker 1: mildly funny like Margot Roby as an answer to who
Speaker 1: would you like? And everyone just dies laughing at an audience.
Speaker 1: Just big you tweeted that out just as his own opinion,
Speaker 1: he would be I would fire, I would be let
Speaker 1: out of the news room. That would be it. I
Speaker 1: can found a flaw in gronx logic here. Surprising is
Speaker 1: that maybe if she makes big cash, why does she
Speaker 1: also need to be cleaning and cook? I thought about
Speaker 1: that too, to be honest with you. But if you
Speaker 1: read between the lines, I think, and this is not uncommon,
Speaker 1: I think he's looking for his mother, but also somehow
Speaker 1: his mother as an earner on some level. You know,
Speaker 1: a mother earn a lot of a lot of end.
Speaker 1: West you're you're not married yet. I don't imagine this
Speaker 1: is how you are. But a lot of single guys
Speaker 1: when they when they're not married for a while, it's
Speaker 1: because they're trying to find a replacement for their dear
Speaker 1: old mum. And maybe that's where gronks at No, I'm
Speaker 1: not married. Uh. A lot of it goes back to
Speaker 1: the girl who engaged herself to me, and that freaked
Speaker 1: me out about marriage for a while. So then I
Speaker 1: lived in sim for eight years. But you know, so
Speaker 1: you're not looking for a mother or I don't think
Speaker 1: the least of your sins you need to worry about,
Speaker 1: you know. Um, all right, and that's what's happening. Alright.
Speaker 1: So we talked about at the top of the show,
Speaker 1: we're gonna get into a piece from West. And it
Speaker 1: is funny whenever we pull up these articles, there's some
Speaker 1: NFL now um hit on top of it. It's very
Speaker 1: hard to look at. It's a shot of West, myself
Speaker 1: and Colleen Wolf Colleen Wolf, um obviously looking elegant and professional.
Speaker 1: West and I looking like West and I. I mean,
Speaker 1: I've seen us look worse, but it's not always easy
Speaker 1: to see, you know. The auto play at the top
Speaker 1: of the page. Thank you guys, look good. Thanks Mark,
Speaker 1: Thanks Mark. Um. All right, so let's get into Colleen's
Speaker 1: gonna be on the show soon. She's gonna be on
Speaker 1: next Monday. Colleen will be on Monday's show, filling in
Speaker 1: for Chris Wastling, who will be on Tybee doing Tybee things.
Speaker 1: We might have to call Tybee by the way, Oh
Speaker 1: it's a tradition. Yeah. Um So anyway, so let's go
Speaker 1: through some of these potential um, you know, possibilities for
Speaker 1: records that can go down in the year um and
Speaker 1: what West's list has. Let's see if seven seven different records, okay,
Speaker 1: that could crash to the turf, and and the first
Speaker 1: one is the one I'm I think has the best
Speaker 1: chance of going down to the one I hope, I hope, hope,
Speaker 1: hope it happens. Michael stray Hands twenty two and a
Speaker 1: half sacks set in two thousand one. West predicts it
Speaker 1: to be J. J. Watt. I certainly can get behind
Speaker 1: that logic, and I just wanted to happen because that
Speaker 1: record needs its dignity. Back after Brett Farvan straight stray Hand.
Speaker 1: Uh really they colluded and they they said, let's take
Speaker 1: this record down. Brett Fard sliding at Strayhand's feet in
Speaker 1: a meaning meaningless game at the Metal ends in two
Speaker 1: thousand one. So this record took it from a jet.
Speaker 1: Also Mark Estineau, which I don't like. This record needs
Speaker 1: its dignity bad. J J. Watt give us twenty three sacks.
Speaker 1: I like that one was Yeah, I would like to
Speaker 1: see J. J. Watt do it, if not for the recognition.
Speaker 1: You know a few people here were griping that J. J.
Speaker 1: Watt got robbed of the m v P award. He
Speaker 1: gets more acknowledgement if he breaks records. It's just how
Speaker 1: great he is. Well, you are against that, though, you
Speaker 1: you want? You wanted Rodgers as m v P. Right.
Speaker 1: I think that Rogers is the most valuable player in
Speaker 1: the NFL and has been for four years. I think
Speaker 1: this one will go down. That's a good pick. I
Speaker 1: think it could just as easily be Justin Houston that
Speaker 1: takes it down. He has von Miller or Alden Smith
Speaker 1: v Von Miller was the other name that that stuck
Speaker 1: out to me. I like the fact that they get
Speaker 1: to go against the Raiders twice a year. All those
Speaker 1: players gotta get a Raiders shot in every fifteen minutes
Speaker 1: on this show. Well, I just the last year, you know,
Speaker 1: Justin Houston half his sacks were against Donald Penn and
Speaker 1: Cliff Barnes lining up on different sets. There's always someone
Speaker 1: weird that pops up in this category though, not that
Speaker 1: they're an untalented player. But someone will pop up with
Speaker 1: a giant number and fall off the next year. I
Speaker 1: will know. I I think Watt is the hands down
Speaker 1: most logical pick. But it is strange to me that
Speaker 1: you go from gas to notice stray hand and it's
Speaker 1: been another fourteen years since someone's broken up. That's why
Speaker 1: it's to me, of all the ones that West has
Speaker 1: listed here, it's the one that's most likely to go down.
Speaker 1: I mean, Jared Allen almost broken a couple of years back,
Speaker 1: and almost went down last year. It's just a matter
Speaker 1: of time at this point, especially with the more passes.
Speaker 1: Every year the NFL breaks the record for the most
Speaker 1: passes in the season by all teams. But that's why
Speaker 1: why it's amazing that why does even the most logical guy,
Speaker 1: because he's not truly like that's not the main main
Speaker 1: part of his job, he gets it done. But and
Speaker 1: they'll have Clowney back potentially, Yeah, because we don't know
Speaker 1: we're going to get out of Clowny. But I was
Speaker 1: his name I popped in my head, is like a
Speaker 1: dark horse to maybe one day break at the record,
Speaker 1: but we don't know if he's ever going to be
Speaker 1: the same guy again. We've heard some whispers that haven't
Speaker 1: been too promising, but hopefully Clowny gets all the way back. Uh,
Speaker 1: you're mess with me. That's all I know. Back the back.
Speaker 1: I like that. Haven't done that in a while. How
Speaker 1: to get it in? Uh? Well done. Peyton Manning broke
Speaker 1: two major records, passing yards seventy seven and touchdowns. He
Speaker 1: threw fifty five, breaking I guess Tom Brady. I'm fifty
Speaker 1: and Tom Brady broken. Uh. Peyton Mannings record who he
Speaker 1: threw forty two thousand four. This is one of those
Speaker 1: records where you kind of know the numbers and and
Speaker 1: the numbers translating football doesn't always work out that way.
Speaker 1: Fifty five touchdowns, the passing yards to me, I don't
Speaker 1: get that excited about, uh, but the touchdowns. I think
Speaker 1: West thinks Aaron Rodgers has a chance to get fifty
Speaker 1: five touchdowns more. Um, West's out Andrew luck as the
Speaker 1: guy can throw over fifty seventy seven yards. Greg will
Speaker 1: start with you on this one. Uh. Do you like
Speaker 1: either of these? I like both of them. Unfortunately, I
Speaker 1: these made a lot of sense. I like to agree,
Speaker 1: disagree like to hire people who don't like don't make
Speaker 1: sense in the well, No, not so much that, as
Speaker 1: I you know, it's good podcast material and uh it's
Speaker 1: fun to go back and forth with the other scientists.
Speaker 1: But Rogers for the most touchdowns. I like that that
Speaker 1: he's coming off a season where he's the m v
Speaker 1: P but everything is still in place, so much continuity
Speaker 1: to just keep cranking it, go up and up. I
Speaker 1: think it's hard for both of these two fault. The
Speaker 1: one thing with that Broncos Peyton Manning scenario that year,
Speaker 1: it was even going into the season you could tell
Speaker 1: they had everything lined up for a monster year. My
Speaker 1: question with the Colts, Andrew Luck is the perfect guy
Speaker 1: to do it yardage wise, but what you just got
Speaker 1: Frank Gore and you've got Pep Hamilton who probably truly
Speaker 1: wants to more balanced offense. They want to run the ball.
Speaker 1: Or is he going to be put in the best position.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's not the best quarterback, but a bad offense
Speaker 1: that can't run the ball that has the most Yeah,
Speaker 1: it might not be good news for the Colts of
Speaker 1: Luck ends up throwing yds, is what you're saying, right, Well,
Speaker 1: I think haven't we heard they want to seek a
Speaker 1: little bit more balanced. Still, he's he's he's capable of
Speaker 1: monster games. Yeah, I don't think that thirty two year
Speaker 1: old Frank Gore's running the ball three times. No, but
Speaker 1: it's better than the situation they had last year. It
Speaker 1: is better. I just I think there's still a past
Speaker 1: first team. I my prediction, and I think they're both
Speaker 1: good options. I think the Manning two thousand thirteen season
Speaker 1: is one that's gonna stand for a long time. It's
Speaker 1: gonna have the type of legs that Marino's eighty four
Speaker 1: season had. I think uh An himself said right after
Speaker 1: he did it that I expect this to fall within
Speaker 1: a year or two. Yeah, and I I mean, I think, well,
Speaker 1: he's being humble obviously too. But I think it's gonna
Speaker 1: be very difficult if you I'm not good at math.
Speaker 1: I've I've said before, I posted a forty on a
Speaker 1: state mandated UH test as a junior high school. Yes, yes, sir,
Speaker 1: fifty five divided by sixteen? What is that? It's like
Speaker 1: three and a half touchdowns a game or something? Yeah,
Speaker 1: A little under that that like that? Uh, that's that's
Speaker 1: very hard to do. I just don't think it's gonna
Speaker 1: go down. That was correct way of telling you I
Speaker 1: am good at math. He was right, he nailed it.
Speaker 1: I mean it's like I don't know, I guess itunds
Speaker 1: like at me. I think, if you want to be
Speaker 1: good at math, just guess a lot. So that that's
Speaker 1: my fit feeling on it. I could be wrong, and
Speaker 1: you know, probably am. But Calvin Johnson had nineteen hundred
Speaker 1: sixty four yards of receiving in two thousand twelve. Uh
Speaker 1: here here was the least surprising one on the list.
Speaker 1: West says Odell Beckham. He's going nuts and he's gonna
Speaker 1: drop a two k on us eventually. West tell us
Speaker 1: why Odell Beckham is stands the best chance. Well. Through
Speaker 1: his first nine starts ever in the NFL, he did
Speaker 1: things didn't know wide receivers ever done in their entire career.
Speaker 1: He was His nine Stars pro rate to a hundred
Speaker 1: forty four catches, two thousand one yards and sixteen touchdowns,
Speaker 1: and they started doubling double teaming him by the end
Speaker 1: of the year, and his receiving totals would go up
Speaker 1: every week even when they doubled him. Now, if Victor
Speaker 1: Cruz comebacks. He comes back healthy, he'll lose a few targets,
Speaker 1: but if if he's uncoverable, which he proved to be
Speaker 1: even against Richard Sherman, You're still gonna throw the ball
Speaker 1: to the guy. I think it's that's super logical and
Speaker 1: it's an offense. I mean Ben McAdoo, we know he
Speaker 1: likes to throw the ball, dating back to what he
Speaker 1: had with Green Bay. I'm gonna throw another name out.
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan teamed up with Julio Jones and a less
Speaker 1: explosive Roddy White. I like to fit. We saw Andrew
Speaker 1: Johnson blow up with Kyle Shanahan in years past. So
Speaker 1: just another guy out there who is capable of having
Speaker 1: those kind of games where you can compile this type
Speaker 1: of yardage over our whole season. I like that one better.
Speaker 1: I don't like the Beckham because I don't see the
Speaker 1: Giants throwing quite as much potentially, and Eli mannings his quarterback.
Speaker 1: It's kind of the quarterback winning this award too, so
Speaker 1: I'm gonna was his quarterback. I'd rather go with Calvin
Speaker 1: john Yeah he was, but they're gonna year after year,
Speaker 1: plus there's gonna, hopefully in their minds. I think have
Speaker 1: more weapons and be able to run the ball a
Speaker 1: little bit. Kelvin Johnson's great, he's the best receiver in
Speaker 1: the NFL, but he also has golden take. Taking a
Speaker 1: hundred catches away from him, was it crazy? I wonder
Speaker 1: if Shane vereen could pull some yards you away from
Speaker 1: Beckham each week. I don't think so. I don't think
Speaker 1: that you're dropping back and purposely targeting Shane vereene. He's
Speaker 1: more of a dump off guy. I think, uh, And
Speaker 1: we talked about this on NFL Now West. I I
Speaker 1: agree with Beckham's a superstarred yards is kind of where
Speaker 1: I had him. I'm looking at the end of his season. Uh,
Speaker 1: eleven for one, thirty against Washington, against Tennessee, twelve for one,
Speaker 1: forty three and three against Washington, eight for one and
Speaker 1: two against St. Louis, twelve and one, eighty five and
Speaker 1: one against Philly. So I guess not a lot of
Speaker 1: great defenses there. But if he's being double teams, he's
Speaker 1: being double teams and that's pretty impressive. I mean. St.
Speaker 1: Louis not only double team him, they try to take
Speaker 1: him out of the game physically. Remember that with cheap
Speaker 1: shots because their coach told them to do that. How
Speaker 1: about the Marius Thomas maybe, well, all right, let's do
Speaker 1: you love the Julio Jones one. It's possible Marvin Harrison
Speaker 1: had a hundred and forty three catches and two thousand two,
Speaker 1: West says, Antonio Brown uh stands the best chance. I
Speaker 1: like that he had a hundred and twenty nine catches
Speaker 1: last year, and if he just adds one more per game,
Speaker 1: as West points out in his article, that would get
Speaker 1: it done. I don't know if anybody could point out
Speaker 1: a better option than Antonio brown for that record. Julian
Speaker 1: Edelman Julio Jones again from Julio Jones. I mean, honestly,
Speaker 1: Damarrius Thomas not terrible with with the other Thomas gone now,
Speaker 1: although Kevin Patrick told me this morning there's zero percent
Speaker 1: chance that this actually happens zero. He said, zero percent
Speaker 1: chance that Marvin Harrison's record falls. Well, it's pretty low.
Speaker 1: Of all of these one, I think that's a tough
Speaker 1: that's one of the tougher ones to get to. Antonio
Speaker 1: Browns had put up one is incredible, and that it's
Speaker 1: hard to imagine he'd repeat the never been a better time.
Speaker 1: What if to happen, though, what if Lavian Bell gets injured? Okay,
Speaker 1: I mean there are most of these records fall because
Speaker 1: something like that happens. Uh here's what I like. Guy
Speaker 1: like Randy Moss twenty three receiving touchdowns in two thousand seven.
Speaker 1: Of course, that is the sixteen and o regular season
Speaker 1: by the Patriots ended eighteen and one. Greg a little
Speaker 1: fun fact, uh Mark uh West throws out Dez Bryant,
Speaker 1: and before I throw two, I will say that I
Speaker 1: think Brian as somebody that I drafts Brian every year
Speaker 1: in fantasy because he's my favorite player to watch. And
Speaker 1: nobody has a better nose for the end zone than
Speaker 1: Dez Bryant with the football as a wide receiver. That's
Speaker 1: why they their season ended because he was stretching to
Speaker 1: try to turn that final fourth down play into a
Speaker 1: touchdown and the ref stole from him. You know whatever.
Speaker 1: But uh West thinks, says, Brian can get twenty three touchdowns.
Speaker 1: But Dez has a weird thing where he can disappear
Speaker 1: for stretches, which has always been odd to me, and
Speaker 1: then he'll just kill a team for a quarter. So
Speaker 1: his lack of consistency and in game basis, I think
Speaker 1: would stop him from getting that high your thoughts, Mark, sure,
Speaker 1: I mean you got Cold Beastley in Dallas too, So sorry, West.
Speaker 1: He's gonna do a lot. Damn. I love him. He's
Speaker 1: the blonde man, beautiful receiver. That's one of my favorite
Speaker 1: players in the league. But I again, I go to
Speaker 1: Marius Thomas because again you lose Julius Thomas had how
Speaker 1: many touchdowns less you're twelve, So again, I just think
Speaker 1: that he's gonna be the centerpiece of an offense that's
Speaker 1: gonna lean on him. They don't have. I don't I
Speaker 1: I'm just throwing out there by the only one that
Speaker 1: thinks that the Broncos are going to really come down
Speaker 1: to earth offensively this year. I really think peyton Man
Speaker 1: was going to look old tomorrow. That will tell you.
Speaker 1: I agree with you. I didn't go with the Mark
Speaker 1: de Marius Thomas because he's not a great jump ball guy.
Speaker 1: He doesn't win battles on jump balls nearly as much
Speaker 1: as other guys built like him, like like Daz and
Speaker 1: Jolio Jones. Yeah. I immediately think of all the teams
Speaker 1: that will score the most amount of touchdowns, but there's
Speaker 1: not a lot of logical candidates there, Dallas and Dez Bryant.
Speaker 1: They had one of the top five offenses. I think
Speaker 1: he's the most logical because at the Green Bay they'll
Speaker 1: spread it around, Patriots spread around. Gronk really, except for
Speaker 1: two and eleven, hasn't really had a huge touchdown number.
Speaker 1: Gregg raises a fist like, yes, you're right, you're our supervisor,
Speaker 1: and finally West saves this one for last week. This
Speaker 1: is one of my favorites, if not my favorite. The
Speaker 1: rushing all time rushing title holder, which is one that's
Speaker 1: been standing now for over thirty years. Eric Dickerson h
Speaker 1: ran for five and eighty four. Adrian Peterson, of course,
Speaker 1: came within eight yards of tying that record a couple
Speaker 1: of years back, and Chris Wesley still thinks Adrian Peterson,
Speaker 1: whether he's on the Vikings or wherever, has the best
Speaker 1: chance of any running back in football of beating Dickerson.
Speaker 1: What why not? I love all these people who think
Speaker 1: that because he's gonna turn thirty and he took a
Speaker 1: year off, that it's actually gonna hurt him. I mean
Speaker 1: the same people have to been doubting him a lot
Speaker 1: more coming off of a shredded knee a couple of
Speaker 1: years ago. I think he's He's obviously the most likely
Speaker 1: of any running back to do it. Plus he's the
Speaker 1: angriest runner the NFL see since maybe Earl Campbell, And
Speaker 1: so how angry is he gonna be now? After Smith? Angry,
Speaker 1: what's happened over the last year, and just fresh legs.
Speaker 1: I could see it. I could see one of my
Speaker 1: one of my initial thoughts when I saw this was
Speaker 1: he I would say, he hasn't even better chance to
Speaker 1: break the touchdown record. I feel like that one's a
Speaker 1: little more you could break the touchtar. Let's do it
Speaker 1: twenty eight, I think rushing, Oh has he ever had
Speaker 1: more than? How about single season carries for sixteen? The
Speaker 1: Vikings clearly, in their own way, try to just use
Speaker 1: up as much Adrian Peterson as they can before saying
Speaker 1: so long to him. Well, it's one of with the
Speaker 1: way that the free agency shifted some of the bigger
Speaker 1: name backs around too, it's one of the few chances
Speaker 1: where Adrian Peterson's on the field, no one's taking carries
Speaker 1: away from this guy. He's gonna have the chance. I mean,
Speaker 1: had C. J. Spiller not gone to the Saints. I
Speaker 1: would have liked mark ingram as a sneaky potential guy
Speaker 1: if he if he fulfilled his potential because they're gonna
Speaker 1: run the ball so much. But yeah, that's the Saints.
Speaker 1: They throw no matter what's um, let me throw one
Speaker 1: thing out there, because we Mark talks himself out of
Speaker 1: best won this argument on this Adrian Peterson actually, and
Speaker 1: we're not right. We're a team. Let's um. Let me
Speaker 1: throw one thing out there about Peterson because we we
Speaker 1: talked about how the Eagles are right to to make
Speaker 1: a move and get rid of a Seawan McCoy because
Speaker 1: he was coming off a season that wasn't as good
Speaker 1: as the season before, and he was at an age
Speaker 1: around twenty eight where maybe it's the right time to
Speaker 1: get out. If you look at the difference between Peterson's
Speaker 1: two thousand twelve season where he had twenty yards and
Speaker 1: two thousand thirteen, where he had twelve hundred and sixty yards,
Speaker 1: his yards per carry dropped a yard and a half,
Speaker 1: averaged forty lest yards per game. His numbers dropped off
Speaker 1: across the board, and they weren't close to what he
Speaker 1: did in two thousand twelve. Same ages McCoy at the time.
Speaker 1: Then he sits out football for a year and I
Speaker 1: was gonna come back, and we're gonna assume that he's
Speaker 1: gonna be the same guy always was when he's thirty
Speaker 1: years old and running back. I'm just saying, like you know,
Speaker 1: you point to every other play or ever, you know,
Speaker 1: it's probably not a good chance for him best. He's
Speaker 1: not every other player ever. He's entirely different than any
Speaker 1: running back we've seen in our lives. And in the
Speaker 1: difference in that two thousand thirteen stat line, is that
Speaker 1: a that that Vikings offense really held him back. And
Speaker 1: when you just watched him week to week, I still
Speaker 1: think he was the best running back in the league
Speaker 1: or one of the top two that year. So the
Speaker 1: numbers didn't blow in an offense. If he's in Minnesota
Speaker 1: this year, that's going to allow him to have nor
Speaker 1: and I wouldn't like it. If he goes to the Cardinals,
Speaker 1: it's better. And but I think when when you watched
Speaker 1: them that year, he was even a lot better than
Speaker 1: those numbers indicated, whereas McCoy not so much. So there
Speaker 1: we've got an answer for you, all right. That's I mean,
Speaker 1: it's fun. It's fun answer. I would love to see
Speaker 1: him come back with a ton of heat. I think
Speaker 1: it's it would be fun to see him chase that
Speaker 1: record again. But we'll see Rand's up. Do you have
Speaker 1: any records? Do you think he'll be broken punter average?
Speaker 1: I'm really like, um, that gentleman out of Tennessee who
Speaker 1: just got the big contract, Brett Kern. No, listen, that's
Speaker 1: solid and he's putting some real Hank ten Old Kearney. No,
Speaker 1: I don't really have one. Actually I was. I was
Speaker 1: starting to dip into the passer rating thing. I like
Speaker 1: passer rating more than other people. I think it's cool. Uh.
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers I think said it two years ago or
Speaker 1: three years ago his first MVP season two eleven. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that maybe he could break his own record,
Speaker 1: but I agree, but I didn't want to promote. Passer
Speaker 1: rating is a statistic. Yeah, I know it's not. People
Speaker 1: don't like passer rating. Breese could break the completion percentage
Speaker 1: for like the fourth time in his career. I think he.
Speaker 1: I think he owns either the top two or three
Speaker 1: completion percent Not very fun. How about this one? Blake
Speaker 1: Bortles sets the all time sacked in a season record
Speaker 1: was in the top ten I think all time last
Speaker 1: year with the Jacks top twine. And they haven't too
Speaker 1: much to fix the line that is. I love you.
Speaker 1: Guess you're not picking the Jaguars to be any good
Speaker 1: this year? Well, I think they'll throw a lot and
Speaker 1: he'll get sacked a lot. Could happen. I've got one
Speaker 1: for you though. Here's another one. David Carstile love that record. Yeah,
Speaker 1: by ye seventy six. For a little while last time,
Speaker 1: Channa Hill was on pace for it, and he I
Speaker 1: think he ended up with more than Bordles. Kaepernick was
Speaker 1: up there, Borders was up there. Now this is a
Speaker 1: random step, but game winning drives in a season? Would
Speaker 1: you guys try to guess who holds this record? By
Speaker 1: the way, go around the table, little win West's toaster,
Speaker 1: who holds the record for game winning drives? Yeah, right now,
Speaker 1: you got it. He tied it. I was also going
Speaker 1: to say, and just for the record, it's actually a
Speaker 1: tie like that, ridiculous by West. Jake delm holds it
Speaker 1: with him something. Oh it was early in his career.
Speaker 1: I remember that. Yeah, the two thousand three, that's very good.
Speaker 1: Panthers team. Jake Plumber, one of the men tied with
Speaker 1: it wasn't Don Pastroni's look, he's looking at the list.
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson breaks it this year nine, I mean we
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, he'll do it because just gonna win
Speaker 1: fifteen games and maybe they'll be they'll be behind in
Speaker 1: a bunch. What does that even mean? Cover of you
Speaker 1: have to be losing at a certain point or is
Speaker 1: it just four? I think that means a fourth quarter
Speaker 1: you have a touchdown drive to win the game, to
Speaker 1: take the lead. And I never really love that stat myself.
Speaker 1: I don't believe it's touchdowns. So I think if you
Speaker 1: seem to think that game winning, is there any how
Speaker 1: about on the flip side you kind of hit one
Speaker 1: with sacks? Is there anybody that could set a sad
Speaker 1: record in two thousand fifteen? Uh, you know, for stinking well,
Speaker 1: stinky Trent Richardson for what with the record. But he'll
Speaker 1: never get enough carries to be the lowest yards for
Speaker 1: carry average. I don't know if it's just being in
Speaker 1: you know, an absolute that I need him to get
Speaker 1: one carry and I went a sandwich. No one, no
Speaker 1: one is going to touch George Blanda's record for interceptions
Speaker 1: in a season forty two, that you'd be benched by week.
Speaker 1: Someone asked that, Um in response to my article, I said, yeah,
Speaker 1: I said exactly what Mark said, that quarterback will be yanked.
Speaker 1: He's seven clear of number two on the list, which
Speaker 1: was Vinny Testaverdi with the Bucks. And even that was
Speaker 1: back in eight eight. No, no one on the list
Speaker 1: is from that to Vinny was color blind. He had
Speaker 1: the Greg restfliction and they were going to play on
Speaker 1: no matter what. Yeah, that was the joke that he
Speaker 1: was throwing the wrong uniform. And he's done a lot
Speaker 1: of important work raising awareness for other color blind people.
Speaker 1: He's kind of he's kind of the guy we've always
Speaker 1: looked towards as a member of the community that lets
Speaker 1: everyone know we it's okay, it's okay, it's okay. Um.
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston could throw thirty five interceptions for the Bucks.
Speaker 1: That's I thought about him for the sacks to just
Speaker 1: because it seems like he's gonna try to keep every
Speaker 1: play alive. You know, interceptions a college, interceptions were crazy.
Speaker 1: So that's a that's a great one. See it all
Speaker 1: comes back around. Now you're glad I brought up Winston. Yeah,
Speaker 1: one last thing before we go the big giveaway day
Speaker 1: over at the NFL media headquarters mentioned Dwayne Munn, or
Speaker 1: social media coordinator, unable to get his jet's helmet off. Uh.
Speaker 1: You know, we all put in emails for your favorite
Speaker 1: team or whatever, and then they give it to you.
Speaker 1: And it does bring up an interesting thought, like West,
Speaker 1: what team would you ask for? Which helmet would you ask?
Speaker 1: We're considering you retired from being a Bengal span It's
Speaker 1: a very difficult decision. I have eliminated whole divisions here. Basically,
Speaker 1: you have the Bengals on one hand, because I could
Speaker 1: give it to multiple family members or friends as a
Speaker 1: Christmas gift or something like that. That's or you know,
Speaker 1: I've got a list of like five teams that i
Speaker 1: could choose between. But I'm definitely not picking an NFC
Speaker 1: East or a FC East team because I can't stand them.
Speaker 1: They get way too much media attention. I'm not taking
Speaker 1: any get a Titans helmet and be done with it.
Speaker 1: What's taking any West teams? Because you know football started
Speaker 1: in the Midwest. I'm definitely taking a Midwestern team, So
Speaker 1: I've got Packers Steelers, Bears, Colts, and I could even
Speaker 1: think about the Falcons because of my time spent in Georgia,
