We are back again on the axis of football, char a lot has gone down some interesting headlines to discuss this week. Tyler Murray finally gets his money. Show me the money as they say the Cardinals did, but there's a caveat char and I will talk about that. Do the Niners veterans prefer Jimmy G over trade land, some rumblings at a Niner camp coming out this week, and we've also got some developments, Jerry Jones at cowboy camp making some potentially cryptic comments on Mike McCarthy and his status. And Tom Brady, the goat gets yet another weapon. Julio Jones headed to Tampa. We'll talk about that and what that means for the bucks and their chances coming up in 2022, but shark. Let's kick it off with the big news over this past week, Kyle Murray getting some cash baby a five year extension, 230 million, 160 million of that guaranteed. But we said char, there is a caveat and that is that Tyler Murray in the contract. It states that he must. Complete four hours of independent game study per week. Interesting. I'll I'll bite my tongue on my initial opinion on this sharp. When you first heard the news, let's talk about two things. The news of the Kyle Murray contract extension, and then this kind of interesting caveat addendum within the contract, your initial thoughts, buddy. Well, before I say anything good to hear your voice again, buddy. And for those of you that don't know, we didn't record last because some elitist some, some friend of mine, who's an extreme elitist who pretends not to be least who lives in a castle in Dallas, was spending a couple weeks in Maui. So or whatever. So we had to wait for his majesty to come back. No, no, listen, listen the family would've had my head on a stick if we didn't, if we didn't do Maui this year. So right. You know, I was, I was, I was, I was a, I was a host situation. What can I say? Right, right. But there's, there's worse places you can spend. You can spend some time AB absolutely. Maui's one of my favorite places. Did you enjoy it before we get going? I mean, I mean, is the sky blue? Yeah. I need go now, you know, as you know, shark, when you get kids that. You know, it's more of a trip than it is a vacation. I'm not, I'm not, you know, sipping you know my ties tropical drinks on the beach or anything, I'm working on five, six hours in the pool. I'm, you know, feeding and cleaning and bathing and you know, but it's a lot of fun. It's what, what about your, your slew of 20 helpers that you travel with you in your, in your entourage cabinet? Oh, For, for the record, char char is this is a complete fib now. but no, I wish, I wish I wish, man. Well, it's good to have you back, buddy. It's good to be back and look, it's great to be, even though we're not physically in the same place. It's great. We're both in California right now. I'm in the bay area. You're in SoCal. So we're both in town in the same time zone for the first time in, and I don't know over a year. So that is true. COEs. Back to his roots, he's celebrating the champ, the NBA champion. His his, his NBA champion, golden state warriors. But you know, that could change on, on, depending on who's who's the better team by, by the year. No, come on, come on. I'm giving you a hard time. I think the fact that I've been a cowboy fan this long proves I'm definitely not. That is true. That is true. That's very true. Appreciate man. Good to be chatting and yeah, man. Let's you know, let's, let's get way. What other side note? I apologize for the noise quality. I, I went back and listened and I realized that one of my cats had chewed on the microphone wire. So my apologies that's been rectified now. So It, it sounded horrible. God, God almighty. When I was listening to it, I wanted to punch myself. But anyways, let's get back to Carl Murray. So a couple, couple things. I, I guess the millennial strategy of passive aggressive. Oh, I'm taking off my social media is working. You know, so if you're out there, go and go and start go and start blocking your. Your employers on social media, maybe you'll get a raise. Again, we both have, we will see the same way. We look at color Mary, the same way. He's a highly talented athlete. And you know about me. I, I, I haven't bought into him even when they were seven and oh, I didn't buy into him. And my reasoning for it. Was that something off on the sidelines, I would see bottom. I didn't like, do you recall that? I mean, like I kept saying, there's something I don't like about it and The fact that they put an addendum in there that he has to do film study. It's it's I mean, come on. Well, I mean, and, and think about, I mean, do, do you, could you ever, and this is why I'm saying Tyler Murray. I don't, I don't put him in that operational. No. Could you imagine, I mean, Tom Brady's obvious, but even let's take some of the newer guys, you know Josh Owen, all the homes, Josh Allen, right, right. Aaron Rogers early in his career. Could you imagine any of these guys. Ever getting something like this in their co I mean, it would, it would be unthinkable. And in fact, you know, I would go as far as to say, if that were to happen, that team would be taking a massive negative hit in the quarter of public opinion because of what we know about the greatness of those quarterbacks. I, I, you know, I don't know what the, I, I can't speak. And I felt fandom, but for me, when I saw that, I was like, oh, okay. Like, it's interesting, but it's, it's not completely shocking to me because I don't put Kyle Murray in that same echelon. And then another thing that I would say sure, interesting. And, and here's where I have, where I kind of take issue is that Kyle Murray last December. Okay. He was quoted on a radio show. He said, quote, I think I was blessed with the cognitive skills to just go out there and just see it before it happens. I'm not one of those guys. That's going to sit there and kill myself, watching film. Wow. I don't sit there for 24 hours break down the team and this team and that team and watch every game because in my head I already see so much. And that was according to 98.7 Arizona sports. There was a local radio show out there in, in Arizona. So like he kind of already put it out there, right. For better or for worse. And and so he seems like not to say he doesn't watch any film, but he clearly is a guy who, who maybe doesn't think he needs to watch a, as much film in particular. And he's now char the funny thing too, is he's now come back and there's been some criticism directed towards him and people like you and me kind of saying, Hey, well this, if, if the team is put on this, this, this caveat, what, what must mean something about his work habits? And he, I think yesterday came out and said, quote, to think that I can accomplish everything that I have accomplished in my career and not be a student of the game and not have that passion and not take this serious is disrespectful. And it's almost a joke. To me, I'm flattered. I wanna say, I want to say flattered that you all think that at my size, I can go out there and not prepare for the game and not take it serious. It's disrespectful. I feel like to my peers, to all the great athletes and great players in the league, this game is too hard to play with. The position that I can play in this league is just too hard. So. He came out and attacked and said disrespectful. I don't think the issue is that he's not, no one's saying he's not watching any film. The question is, and we take that previous quote from last December, and now the Cardinal's putting this in the contract, right? I don't, is it crazy to say that maybe Murray is not as big on watching film, but maybe some of his peers are, it's not crazy to say KU rush. Here's the thing, which statement from Carla Murray, are we supposed to. The one that he made on radio several months ago or this statement right now. Yeah. And the fact that's team that has to put this on there. And part of me wonders part of me wonders that, is that a way for, is, is, is that a passive aggressive way that the Cardinals set F few to Carla Murray by, by disclosing that, and I'm putting it in the contract, but hardly gonna know that he's watching film at home hard, hardly gonna really monitor that. Well, and, and it's, you know, I was reading some of the, and it's funny you say that. Sure. And I, I, I agree with you. I think it could be, it could be it's either. I mean, it could be both like, Hey, F you for putting us through all this and the social media Bonanza and all this stuff, we're gonna kind of put this in there. But if you actually look at the, the addendum, there's some pretty, pretty clear language in there. Right. Basically what it says is that he will, Murray is gonna need to study. Material provided to him by the club in order prepare for the club's next upcoming game. It says that he will receive credit for completing his film study, according to the contract. However, it also states that. The time that Murray spends in mandatory meetings doesn't count right. Of course it doesn't the independence study, but it's, to me, it's funny, they have to spell all this out. Right. And then it's saying it also states that he will not get credit if he's not studying or watching the material while it plays on his tablet. Or if he's doing something that can distract him or draw attention elsewhere, like watching TV, playing video games, browsing the internet. Right. Like this seems like, you know, hard, you gonna monitor it, a kid, a kid's rules. You put on a wall, right? Not an NFL, but course here's the thing. Hard. You gonna monitor that? They're not gonna monitor it. Exactly. Can't but, but the thing is though the point is isn't, it, it kind of funny that they're putting this verbiage, right? NFL contract. It's something I would tell my son like, Hey, don't, don't have the TV while you do your homework, you know? Right. Like, and, and that's why I ask, is this an, a few statement to him? That's, that's why I'm asking that. Yeah, it's almost embarra. It's a little bit embarrassing. Right. Funny thing is Monday, this past Monday, when cliff Kingsbury was asked about this. He basically was like, Hey, I didn't have anything to do with the addendum. I'm just, my job is just to develop him as a player. right. Right. So it's like cliff Kingsbury was like, don't look at me, dude. Right. Like, right. I was, I wasn't buying this thing. So the coach is trying to absolve himself a bit, cuz I think he even realizes maybe this is a little bit. Language is, is a little bit ridiculous also. And he has to ha he has to be on good terms with him on the field. So but to me, this is partially an F few statement. Kyle Murray, there's no way in hell. They're gonna be able to monitor that improve whether he's watching it or not. This is just an absolute, like you embarrassed us. You put us through this. Here you go. You basically held our feet over to fire. And God more than what you deserve. And and you know what, here's our way of showing the world that you are a child. You're not a professional that you know, that you're not a team first guy that, you know, here's our way of showing that you're a prick. That your selfish prick. Could, could you imagine, like what, what would Patrick Rome say if in this contract with the chiefs that said they would watch film and by the way, no video games are TV in the background. Come on, man. Like that, that's just, it's, it's crazy to me that they're that have they put this language in there. And, and yeah, it it's it's I agree with you that it's partially an FVU, but I is there, is it possible char that there is a legitimate concern from the Cardinal. On his level of preparation. If we're gonna piss money, we want some assurances as you're gonna prepare, because we're maybe we're maybe not super confident or as confident if we'd like to be into preparation currently that you've showed us so far. Well, well, let's look at it this way. When both you and I, who are not fans of his right. We're not fans of his as a football player. We're enormous fans of this as a talent, right? Yeah. When, when we look at it, we were like, he's got the arm strength. He's got, you know, he, he he's, he's got the speed. He can run around. He's electrifying. He's exciting. Okay. He can win games on his feet on and with his arm, but yet there's something about him that we don't like. There's something that, that, that, that we're like, he is not one of those top A-list franchise quarterbacks. Right. What, what does it leave? It leaves us that, that his perspective or, or, or his demeanor towards. Football and the profession of, of, of being an NFL football player. He's not fully vested in it. Kuru that's that's, that's what we didn't like about it. When I look at it and I see his demeanor toward his freaking toward his teammates on the sideline. And I'm like, kuru, I don't like the way he looks. I don't like the way he looks at people. I don't like the way he rolls his eyes. I don't like the way he's not, not near his receivers or his lineman. I don't like. So I saw that and, and I don't know why you derived a decision that you did about his professionalism, but, but obviously there's something missing from it. He is not fully vested into the game of football. He is for me. It's and, and you, you, you have much better insight this than I would show, but for me it was just simply a couple of things, right? His bilanguage and his facial expressions. Yes. He always looks like he's pissed off. He always seems like it's not good enough. It's always seems. At somebody else's fault that he's putting up that like, oh my God, I have to put up with a crap. Yeah. That's and then to me, I just don't like, like, God bless him for what he's been able to get out of, out of his. But I personally, if I was running a franchise, I wouldn't hand him the key to, because I don't believe that his style of play is scalable. Right, right. What happens when his legs aren't what they used to be. Right. He's so he creates so many plays outside of the pocket. Because of his legs and his quickness, you know, in a few years, that's not gonna be at age 30. Yeah. At age 30, just like a running back. I don't believe that he's really and by the way, please, don't extrapolate this to think. Maybe I don't believe in like Lamar Jack Lamar Jackson is a unique, explosive running talent call. Murray's quick and elusive. Don't compare that to a Lamar Jackson news of an extremely lethal weapon. He can score from anywhere in the. Kyle Murray. I'm saying when collar Murray he's short, he can't see over the lineman as it is Kyle Murray is he loses when he loses the quickness. He's not gonna be able to get out. He made the rush anymore and he can't see. So what are you left with? Right. So that's, that's my issue with co Murray, right? Not as a person, but am I gonna hand the keys of the franchise? No, I, I wanna witness something. You said char you mentioned his teammates, right? I'd be curious if you can kind of put your figuratively, your, your, your helmet back on. If you were one of his teammates and you're seeing the headlines about this film study addendum in his contract, did, is that something you don't think twice about or does that stand out to you? How does that go over with you? If you're thinking about yourself as a teammate of color Murray, my. My feeling is that if this is the, again, it's not like he's a new quarterback to the system. He's been there for about three years now, two, three years. However, he's been there. Oh, three years. Okay. So the, the guys that have been there, they know, they know about the fact that maybe. He doesn't understand or like, you know, because look during meetings, coaches ask you, coaches put, put you in situations and, and they say, Hey like they would ask me sharp. What's a down a distance, you down a distance here's third and seven or longer. What defense do we expect from them? If, if we come up with this formation and I should, I, I would, I need to spur off. Five different defensive fronts that we might see and what kind of blitzing and, and what kind of personnel we might see. And I was expected to know what kind of protection we're gonna try to put towards that. And, and, and now, now multiply that exponentially for a quarterback. Okay. He has to know he has to, not only does he need to know blocking patterns, he has to know route tree. He has to know the defensive and the coverages and. And I, I just, I can only imagine that he's been in those meetings and they've asked him questions to the point where he is like or just like says something and look you, you can only bullshit so much for so long. So I don't agree. I don't think I agree with you. I don't think that you'd have language like this, unless like something tangible has happened to lead you to believe we need to do this right. To feel good about the, and by the way too, we talked about this in the production side meeting. This deals, essentially almost a mirror of Deshaun Watson in terms of the, the annual money that he's gonna be getting. The only difference is the Deshaun Watson deal is fully guaranteed which is, is a pretty big difference, right? Co Murray's is I think 160 million guaranteed. So about 70 million difference in guaranteed money which, you know, Deshaun Watson that's, that's a, that's a hell of a deal that he got. But essentially from a, just you take the annual. Yearly salary about 46 million that's that's the neighborhood that he, that he can I say something to that too? Rush? Sure, please. What's what's Kyle Mary's last final year. Do we know let's let's let's assume, let's assume it's the average let's let's assume it's around 45 to 50 million, right? Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I, even though that his contract is only guaranteed for what hundred, and you said hundred 30 million, I think 160 guarantee. Okay. 160 guarantee. Basically. Yeah, I actually, the only year is not guaranteed is the last is the last year. It, it, it goes, it, it, it's not actually, it is different than the Watson contract and that the Watson contract is fully guaranteed and it's basically a fixed the 40 to six point whatever million every year Murray's is a little bit is a little bit all over the place. So I believe he's let's see, 30 million. For 2239 for 2338 for 24, it kind of fluctuates. And then, and then the final two years, 2026 and 2027. He goes to actually, wow. The 20, 26 number, it goes to, it goes to 42 million and then 36 million for 20, 27. So he's, it is a little bit up and down in terms of the annual annual salary he'll be getting. Right. So here's what I'm gonna say when they sign him to this much and they give him 130 mil million guaranteed. Even his non guaranteed money cor. Is gonna be guaranteed until the, his second to his last year, because one of two things is gonna happen for again. You never know, but these are the most things, you know, the most likable things to happen is that he will either before that final year of his contract, he will either re-sign or sign an extension, or he will be cut before that final year. So my, my point is that that's 36 million. So really. His entire contract is guaranteed minus of 36 million. Right. So look at, look at it because they're not gonna KU, they're not gonna guarantee him all this money and cut him in two years or three years. No, they're not. It's it's not. So so, but people have to, people have to really put that into mine about like, oh, his is only 130 million guaranteed to Sean Watson was 230 million crew right now from the look of it. Kyle and Murray got basically 198 million guaranteed. Yeah. I mean, he's still gonna be a very rich man. Right, right. And this, this really, I really wanna see what that will do to the to, to the Cardinals coming up with, with some of their players, because look, I, I call it the Joe Flaco effect, you know, of, of, of winning the, of winning the super bowl. And, and again, from a player's per perspective, God blessed them both. Yeah. Except Kyle, it hasn't come near winnings a role, but right, right. Joe Flaco did it at least by being in super bowl. So not only that, I mean, Joe Flaco played likes out in every playoff game that, that, right, right. He, no, he, he, he got paid, but let's look at the only time that we saw that the Ravens weren't really a serious threat. Was the years after they won the super bowl with Joel flyout quarterback. Yeah. That's fair. Yeah, because they couldn't sign people. They had to let people go look, look when you guys, when, when you're Dallas Cowboys signed Dak Prescott last off season, what did I say to you? I said, this is a death nail to Amari Cooper and Ezekiel Elliot. Remember that? Well, yeah, Cooper, Cooper. And we'll yeah. We'll we'll, we'll talk about, and, and, and this is, this is Zeke's last year with the Cowboys. I, I can tell you that. I can tell you that. This is I agree. These, these contracts and these giant contracts have, have repercussions for the rest of the team. Yeah, for sure. There's no question about it. Salary, cap era. You can't, you can't escape that. And yeah, the question is, you know, is, is Kyle Murray, like, and again, we talked about this, when you, when you back up the Brinks truck for Patrick Mahomes. It's not necessarily as big of a deal because he can he's, he's probably worth a couple touchdowns, a game and then what you get from another quarterback. Right. So he can cover up some flaws. He's worth every penny. He is worth every penny. Yeah. Is, is Tyler Murray that, and the question becomes, I guess it's not easy if, if you don't wanna resign him. Then what do you do right then? No, they, they, they had to correction. They had to sign them. They had to sign them. They, they had no choice. It's, it's like one of those things, like, I, I feel not that I feel terrible for ownership and management you know, cause I'm, I'm a former player, but, but put yourself in their shoe. What are you supposed to do? Yeah. I mean, it's, it's, there's not much, there's not much you can do. You've gotta hit your wagon of this guy. I just don't. I just don't know. I mean, I, the question is, cause what's what we're trying to. We're trying to win a super bowl is now that you've giving him this big contract and presumably, you know, not able to necessarily go out and, and, and build a well rounded team. Is he going to be that force multiplier that overcomes that and gets you to super role? I, I, when things are going well, he will be no, here's a, this is what I don't, don't like about him when things are going well, he will be. But as soon as shit hits the fan crew, she's one of those guys that starts rolling his eyes or, or instead of, instead of picking up his old line saying, it's okay, if fellas I got hit, you know what, I'm fine. I got you. You get beat. I got you covered. Instead of that, he's sitting on his ass by himself. Rolling his eyes. I don't like. I I, as a team leader, I don't, I don't like that. And, and look, and I think that Rams proved it, that you can, you can put a really great team together and go and get yourself a, a B rated quarterback. And again, I, you know how I feel about Matt Stafford? I, I think he's been unrated for, for long time, but B plus, right? Yeah. B plus in terms of dynasty type quarterbacks at his age, at, at, at this stage of when the Rams got all right. Mm-hmm so look the S will two, one with. Let's let's let's not forget, like the Cardinals were tomb with, with with col McCoy. And let me ask something. If, if you. Again, I really don't like the makeup of, of the Cardinals team. I, I think they're, they were, they're not as good as that seven old record, obviously as, as, as we saw. But look, you got guys like Matt, Ryan that are, that, that are out there, that, that are capable of, of taking the team to the super bowl. You got, you got a lot of guys out there. That could do what you could do. And, and I really, I, I really wanna see, I, I, I really want to know what, you know, what you, you listened to that show with Michael Lombardi. What did he have to say about the cap repercussions of this? To be honest, I have, I have not watched the, this week, but I mean, Michael McArthy, I'm interested to see what he would've to say. He calls Kyle Murray, the mayor of Munchkinland. That's very funny. That's pretty funny. so he actually just, now he just reversed him as the mayor. Because he said the mayor much on. So people just know when he says the mayor, people just know he's talking funny about right. Funny. That's funny. So I'm my guess is he was not a fan of it. Yeah. I mean, yeah. I mean, I, I can only imagine what he's going through saying, I can only imagine that he probably hates this. But to, and one thing that you said when, when you said you're not you know, you're, you're not comparing him to Lamar Jackson you're 100% correct. Lamar Jackson is a Michael Vick. Whereas Kyle Murray is a duck. That's not, I mean, to me, that's not a terrible comparison. I'd say maybe he was a little more, he's a little more dynamic than Doug flu, but, but you know what? I'm talking about a terrible comparison. No, it's it's and, and look, Doug's Doug. Flu's a winner now. So the, oh yeah. The one thing that I liked him, because look, I played against Doug flu. Plenty of times up in Canada. All right. And by the way that guy, I think you're talking more just physically, because his mentality too, he doesn't, I don't think very different mentality than Dougie was a freaking champion and he was a leader. All right. So but I'm talking about physical characteristics of, of, of a small guy. Small hands who's just quick and, and, and, and, and needs to rely on, on, on his legs to, to, you know, throw the receiver open or, or make a completion. That's what we're talking about. Lamar Jackson is a guy that's like, are you kidding me? He's like, I, I get excited when there's nobody open. Cuz I wanna see what he does. He was, I mean, again, not, not that I wanna use this, you might of Colin Kaepernick. How, how, like, when Colin would just run with those long legs and you're like, wow, what's he gonna do? You know? So yeah, your, your comparison was absolutely right. Lamar Jackson is, is a different story than Kyle Murray. And, and I just want to, I literally talk to me in two, three years about the Cardinals. Yeah. And, and, and sure. And back, back to your question, you know, Michael Lombardi did, I did see on his Twitter, he basically said he doesn't believe in these incentive based contracts because basically, you know, the, the incentives doesn't change the core fundamentals of the person, right? Like if a person doesn't naturally really work hard. You know, is an incentive really gonna change that. Or even if it does change it on paper, is that, is that hours of work really gonna amount to anything. So he doesn't, he doesn't, he was not a fan of the move. When he, he said he made a comparison. He said that basically the, the Cardinals organization is like the entourage guys. Except with no manager. So he thinks that's maybe that goes back to what you said. Sorry about like, Hey, why don't we just go on social media and, and, and grab our employer and then we can get a bunch of money too. Right, right, right. No, that's, that's that's funny. And yeah, look one final thing. And I don't, I don't, again, we both. Love the talent and we think he's dynamic. So I don't wanna make it seem like we're shitting on him. God bless you Kyler for, for getting paid brother that's so again, as a football player, I, I, I say that, but as somebody who analyzes these things, we have to look back and, and, and say that the fact that they put something like that, that, that, so now I know that his demeanor and, and, and. And, and the way he is for his team. I don't like, and now his work ethic, I don't like, because here's the thing, offensive lineman need to be smart, cuz they need to know five positions of what everybody's exactly doing. Plus a blocking fullback. Plus the running back, knowing where the running back's going through. We don't have to know pass pass routes with the exception of having to know if they're deep, you know, how, how long the quarterback's gonna hold onto the ball. So now I can only imagine, imagine if I had to know exactly what each route pattern. Of the receiver was and what the reads of the receivers were. And you're telling me he's not the first guy into the into the facility, not the last guy out. And he has to be told to watch film. Are you kidding me? Are you freaking kidding me? Yeah. So it's it's yeah, I, no, we'll see. I mean, look, maybe he'll mature, maybe home mature. That's what I'm saying. There's one or two ways can go, right. Either. you know, maybe he gets pissed off and and, and continues doing what he's doing and, and goes down rabbit hole further. Or maybe he takes it as an opportunity to say, Hey, I'm, I'm actually going to prove my naysay is wrong. And I'm gonna take this side. Look, I, I got the money at the end of the day. Like, you know, despite this, this addendum I'm getting paid, I've got them and they show the commitment to me. I'm gonna hunker down and prove. Yeah, yeah, he has to look to see, okay, I got the money, I got the fame. The only thing I don't have is a super bowl ring. And what do I need to do to get a super bowl ring? I mean, yeah. I mean also how about, how about a playoff win? First of all right. I don't think he has one of those yet, but yeah, right. Yeah. Agreed. And, and look, I like, what I wanna see from Tyler is can you actually sustain. Success across an entire NFL season, not the first 5, 6, 7 games. Right. Can you actually sustain that through the middle, through the end of the regular season, because it's, it's, it's been a steep drop off it weren't for that, whatever, the seven and oh, if weren't for that hot, hot start, they had, they would've missed the playoffs again, it was the same thing with the previous year. Right. They, they, they start hot and like, please spare me. The first two months of the season, when he's gonna look good and electric and say, I told you so no, talk to me around Thanksgiving time. Talk to me sick of December. And then we can say, okay, has he actually taken the next step? No, you're absolutely right. Yeah. I, you know him, him, him torching, the, the Jaguars in September is not gonna impress me. I'm sorry. Or, or even, or again, the only good thing that came out of, out of the way he played last year is he made me look really, really. That's that's the only thing. So I took, I took a lot of victory relapse on, on that with, with saying that the Rams are the best human division and, and so on and so forth. So let's so, so let's, let's break that down. And you know, and by the way we talk about this, you know, looking at the schedule you know, their, their early season schedule actually, isn't, isn't all that much of a cakewalk, right? You got chiefs, Raiders, Rams. To start off, which is, which is not necessarily a, a cakewalk. If you told me to go, oh, and three, I wouldn't be shocked because they're all three playoff teams. Right. So we'll see about that. But sharp we'll, we'll wrap up the Colin Murray thing. How do you think he responds to this? Does he take that leap next year? Is this contract a springboard for you know, kinda looking back at his career and saying, this is, this is the inflection point that allowed him to really look, you know, just concentrate on his level of. To the next level, or do you think we're gonna see some form of more of the Sam Kyler? Unless if they bring a. That he, that he will listen to like a former player or, or like a coach that, that he respects that. Because right now he's looking at it, he's saying I'm, I'm above everything here. I, I, I, I am above the Cardinals. I'm above everything. And look, look that they just, they just proved me. Right. They just paid me all this money. Unless if they bring him a guy, they can sit down and, and, and, and get him and get him straight. I, I think this is gonna turn out bad. I don't think he's gonna learn. Cause up to this point, he has only been rewarded for his foolishness. Yeah, I, I, I just don't think, and for me, it's as simple as you, you, you can't change a person's who they're at their core and who, what his demeanor is. He can't change that he's short and he can't change it over time. He's gonna lose quickness, like to me. Right. All those things are still true. Right. So I, I, I just, I, I, I don't know how much you could expect him to sustain a little, but I think that's probably why over the course of a season, As he gets more beat up, he gets less and less and productive. He's he's brittle. Remember use that term. He's brittle and it's not a fuck, like, dude for that size and that frame, right? Like he's got, he's gotten so much, it's not a knock on him personally. It's just, it's just a reality of what he has. We good? I think we talked about his demeanor, his demeanor. Yes. That is a knock that something in his control. But it's kind of seems to be who he is, unless that can change vastly. You know, I, I don't think we should expect too much different out of color Murray than what we've already seen. Okay, well, sure. Let's now move on to. Some news coming outta Niners camp around Jimmy G Sean Salisbury, Shar reporting, by the way, do you remember Sean Salisbury on ESPN back in the day? Wasn't he a quarterback? He was a former, I think he played choir for the Vikings back in the day. Right. He was one of ESPN's top NFL analyst and it was a good guy. I actually, I, I, I met him a couple times. When I would cover Cowboys training camp in Oxnard, in Southern California, and he'd come out for ESPN sometimes. And he told me, he told me, bro, there's not a day that goes by. I don't count my lucky stars that I get to talk about football for a living for ESPN. A few years later, he was fired from ESPN for let's just say He, he took a, a picture of an area of his anatomy that should not be shown to others. And he showed it to some female colleagues. He pulled the Brett far, just say that pulled, he pulled the bread farm. He pulled the bread farm. Right. Except he doesn't have probably the clout that Brett far has. And so he was fired. He was fired. Nevertheless Sean Sal Salisbury is a reputable NFL reporter. He does still cover the league. Has some good analysis and insight. This has never really recovered from, from that incident but in any case, Sean Salberg in a Houston radio show last week said he spoke to someone close to the Niners and around their QB situation, who told him many of the Niners veteran players prefer Jimmy G to. It is to be fair. It is, there were no names mentioned. Right. And so it could be, you know, who's actually saying this. But we also to be fair of sure. We also did hear things like this last year, too, as the season was winding down veterans like Jimmy veterans enjoy Jimmy's presence. Right. They, they think they can win with Jimmy. Right. And so this is not anything necessarily new, but interesting situation, obviously we know. That trail land is the guy. There's no question. Niners are, are, are moving on and going with trail land, there's even a report. I think that came out yesterday that said that Niners are pretty much allowing Jimmy you to come and go and pleases, they're not gonna mandate anything. I think it's actually in their best interest to still tell'em stay away. The last thing they want from him is to suffer some kind of injury that would, they would deplete his trade value further. So there's no question about who the guy is, but just, I don't know, a as, as, as a, as a former player hearing the veteran. Rumble this way, and this has not been the first time it's has come up. Does that tell you anything about the organization and the makeup and, and how they view the quarterback position that, that we we should know about? No, not, not really. It it's look, it's a situation where there's a team favored and the organization has a vision of, of how to move forward. And but why not then just say, you know, why not just say, Hey Trey's the guy and they did, they said, they said that they came out and said, this is Steve. I'm talking about when you, when you, if you're a veteran player talking as a source, right. Like mm-hmm, why not just, you know, to other players and just say, Hey, Trey's our guy. You know, we, you know, Jimmy's great, but like, we want, we want Trey, right? Like, like, why not? As a, if, if you're a veteran player, even talking to, even if you know, it's gonna be off, the comment's gonna be off the record. Why even make an off record comment like that, supporting saying, we, you know, I think, well, we don't know what the question was. We, we don't know what the questions were and we don't know what the responses were because it's, it's a very big, it's a very big and broad statement that the veterans would prefer Jimmy G to play. Some, some, some veterans, we don't know how many, we don't know what number he spoke to. We don't, we don't know anything. So so that's, that's why I can't really answer as to why the, for nines would. Something about it or not now having said that I, I held a position few weeks ago, a few months ago that you know, Jimmy G's situation is different than baker Mayfield. That baker had to go. It was a toxic situation. And, and I, and I thought that the, for United could hang on to Jimmy G just in case of an injury or they could get good value trade for him. If, if a, if a quarterback gets hurt somewhere else now, If there's any valid to the statement of of Sean Salsbury, then, then they need, they need to, they need to get rid of him because at the first sign of trouble, if that kid loses a couple of games for you, then, then the mum mumblings and rumblings will start. Yeah, I think they, I mean, I think they wanna get rid of him. I think they had just probably botched his his trade value. Oh, absolutely. They did the whole, the whole trade process. Absolutely they did because, you know again in one of those, in one of my many days that I sit there just drinking a little bit of tequila and, and thinking to myself, I, I would've, I would've liked to see, I would've liked to see a three way trade between between San Francisco, Cleveland and, and, and, you know, and, and the Panthers. They would swap their picks and, and Cleveland would get Cleveland would get Jimmy G until Deshaun comes back, baker baker comes to, you know goes to the Panthers and the Panthers give something to the 49ers. So, but again you know, wishful thinking like that, but yeah, they've, they've Def definitely watched up the trade because here's a thing who better to have as, as a backup for Tampa bay bucks on, on, because they have what a year, maybe two more years left with to. To move forward and, and win a championship. What a better backup to have to Tom Brady than, than, than Jimmy Garlow he's. He's not gonna wanna to do that. He, he, he, he graduated new England as Tom Brady's backup. And actually, I think it got pretty heated between them towards the end of his time Jimmy shack, you know what SHA and Kobe. Didn't talk for a long time. Also shaman had wrapped after he won the championship. Well, those guys can play on the court at the same time. You can't have, you can't have two guys quarterbacks in the field at the same time. Yeah. But, but you know what people grow up and, and, and people change. And if you tell, look, Jimmy right now wants, wants to have a wants to have a a job which, which he will have. And, and you go on a team with Tom Brady where you can pick up a, when you can pick up another championship and then take over for. In in two years. Why wouldn't you want to do that? Yeah. It's it's I think on paper it's it's logical. I just dunno how realistic that would be in terms of what, what about, what about Seattle? What about Seattle? Yeah. And the problem there is, you're not, you're not gonna trade in a vineyard division, right? Unless you getting over on them. Right. I mean, so what, what about, so I, I can, I can name it. I can name a couple other kids. It's just the, the problem is the Zealand chairs run out, even, even the baker situation. It's a competition between him and Dar, right? So he didn't, he didn't go somewhere where he is the outright starter. So there's in that sense, there's nothing for Jimmy. I think the Niners need have to wait for there to be some kind of an injury or something has to change. And I agree with you sharp because it's, it's, it's, it's dangerous to go into his season with. Not a rookie quarterback cuz Lance rookie was last year. But with essentially a rookie quarterback cause he has, he didn't really play much. This is his first year as the, as the fulltime starter to then say, okay, we're gonna hand this to you, but you've almost got like this, this linear shadow over you right into your point. Anytime things go bad naturally in that situation, the back of quarterback's gonna be the most part, especially, and look, look, I, I Don. I'm not a huge fan of Jimmy Barlo. I think he takes a lot of unnecessary SS, you know, throws some unnecessary interceptions, but look, they he's efficient. They've won a ton with this guy. They've made two very deep playoff runs with this guy. It's not shocking to me. The veterans think thing and win with them. They think they can because they have right. So it's not like you absolutely. He's not like any other random backup on a team with a, with a new quarterback. Right. He's a guy who's taking him to his bowl, taking him to a commerce championship, made some deep playoff runs. Right. And, and he seems very well liked. Right. We talk about collar Murray's talent and his demeanor not being the best. Jimmy's almost like an inverse. He doesn't have a ton of you know, wow. Off the charts, talent. But he's clearly a guy that his, the locker room likes and rallies around and respects massively, and that counts for something doesn. Absolutely does it. Absolutely does. You know, he's a leader, but, but look, there's always gonna be rumblings. There are always gonna be people that, that think like, you know, are like, what are you doing? We can win with Jimmy. We can win now. And also there's look, players, players develop relationships, plays our relationships. So I, I, I remember my first junior Canadian league when I had a lot of success, my guard. That I loved. I mean, he, and I thought like, we didn't even need to make any calls. We just knew each other so well, they, they, they replaced him with somebody that was better and I hated it and I was grumbling and, and so and so forth. But then, but then I learned, you know, I'm like, okay, well, he's gone now. And, and I gotta, I gotta play with this guy who ended up being a phenomenal player, way better than the guy that I had. So, and I think, I think to part of this too short, I think this stuff's easy to talk about because it's just, we're in the off season. There's not a lot of football. If, if trail is the talent that think he is, and if Shahan can, can kind of groom him up the way we know he can, as a, as a, as one of the most brilliant offensive minds in football, it might not be very long before. There's no competition at all. That wouldn't shock. I wouldn't shock me either. I think we're, we're talking about it now because there's just, there's been, there's nothing happening on the field. Right, right. But. There is a reality where it's like, if you're the Niners, we probably ideally don't want to enter the season with Jimmy on the roster because of you know, wanting to show confidence in, in our new, in our new quarterback. So it isn't a month that to keep track of. What do you think ultimately happens? Do they end up finding a trade partner before the season? Or do we see some kind of an injury or something down the road? Where mid season made. They, they get'em somewhere before the trade deadline. The, the, the best scenario for the SNIS is if, if, if they trade him to some AFC east opponent, you know? So yeah, somebody gets an injury and, and they trade, you know, they trade'em over there or to, to, you know, God knows one of, one of those themes where they don't have to face them. Twice a year or, or every year. So that's the best case scenario. If that, if that doesn't happen, I think they just, they just do what the Texan did with Sean Watson last year. They just, they just them. And to me, if you just, if, if you're, if, if I'm solely looking at the Niners making a super bowl run to me, actually, ideally if they have Jimmy G on the roster and trance comes out and just balls out, His lights out. He's clearly starter, but if you were to get hurt, you gotta like Jimmy G you can come in and run the offense. That's not a bad place to be, but you also have to see that trail comes out and is like the bonafide number. One guy clearly shows that he can take the reigns of the offense, take him to the next level. We don't know if that's gonna happen yet, but I think in that scenario, having Jimmy G as a backup, if you wanna make a deep playoff run, isn't a bad thing. Assuming he behaves himself, which I think he's a team player he will. Right. Because if you have an injury, your season isn't over right at quarterback, right? No, I, I, I agree, but that's not gonna happen though. That's yeah, that's more fantasy land. Right? Right. You'd love to have two starting caliber guys on the team. So look, we'll, we'll see how it all plays out with the Jimmy drama and, and all that. I think the Niners are doing it the right way. Keep him away. I said, I'll tell him we don't wanna see you in the building. just stay, stay, stay home, stay healthy. No reason to get injured. And we will we'll we'll try and work on something. You know what trade'em to the Raiders. Why not? Why not trade'em to the Raiders for, for a conditional pitch? I mean, as, as a backup, the thing is the thing is, I think part of this too, is you wanna do right by Jimmy. For what he's done for the organization. Right. Great. A of the Raiders isn't really doing right. He's I mean, they, they just locked up their car, right? I mean, so, so, you know, he wants, the problem is you wanna do right by him by sending him somewhere where he has a chance to start. But, but how many teams opportunity doesn't exist right now? How many teams are there for Jimmy G to be a Bon you know, locked and loaded starter there there's just, right, right now, there's not enough. There's not enough shares one team Seattle. What? That, that, that's it. That said one team of Seattle. Sure. You're right. I think if the Niners at XOX weren't in the same division, he'd probably be a cer, right? Yeah. That's fair. So it's so, so, so that's the reason if Jimmy G goes anywhere this year, More than likely, unless we're talking about an injury, he's gonna be a backup kuru. Yeah. He's, he's, he's, he's gonna be a backup. He's asked six. He has to accept that. Right. And, and look, I'm a big believer in analogs and, and, and I'm looking at I'm like, you know what? He would be a good backup for Derek Carr in case the case of an injury where the office doesn't have to change and not much of a drop off, he wouldn't be a, a bad backup for Tom Brady. If, if, if something happens, yeah. You know, it's those are the, you know, send, send them to the Redskin, send them to the commanders. He might, he might start, he might start sooner and later you'd be doing well for the, I I think, I mean, I already think Heineke, he's gonna eventually come in for once. So there you go. That that's gonna it's it's gonna complicate it earlier. Ads. There just there isn't a clear cut situation though. You know what I mean? And that's, and that's a struggle. You, you wanna hear something though? We gonna hear something it's gonna probably gonna make you laugh because who do you think I would want the 49ers to bring in as a backup trail land? Come on Tyler Murray no, no, no. Somebody that doesn't have a job right now, you know? It's my boy. Oh, oh, Kaepernick Kaepernick. No cam Newton, baby cam Newton. Oh, cam Newton. I'm sorry. Actually, I should ask you question. Come on. You know, I love you some cam Newton. I love me some cam Newton. Would, would that be a good backup for him? I mean, can he still throw, I mean, come on, come on. You have a power back. Okay. But, but you're talking about somebody, like if Trey misses a week or two, you don't have to change the offense. You don't like, you still get somebody dynamic. You still get that's fair. You're boy. Yeah. Know. We haven't talked about it for so long. I, I forgot, but yeah, if we were mid-season I would've got that immediately. I just a while or Chicago, Chicago should take cam Newton. I right, right on field analog. Yeah. All right. Enough enough on, on the beautiful Jimmy G let's let's go to some potentially cryptic comments comment at a Cowboys camp. So chars is kind of funny a couple days ago. Jerry Jones stayed next right next to Mike Mike McCarthy. He was addressing the media as he always likes. He's always the one that has to address the media first, or he, he likes doing that by the way, he would do this. When I was at Cowboys camp when parels was the coach during while Parel was running practice, he would walk over to the media during practice. And he would tell us the free agent moves they've made. And the latest news before parcel could announce it in the press conference. He just, he just likes being first. He just, even with parcels, he would sneak it. Right. He would tell we signed this guy and that guy. So anyway so in, in typical Jerry Jones fashion, he was dressed in the media. McCarthy's sitting right next to him and he DEC he decided. To voluntarily without the media asking him to voluntarily address the issue of Michael McCarthy's job security and BA, but basically what he said was he said, quote, he wouldn't be sitting here today. If I didn't believe he was the man to lay this team to a Superbowl. But then right after that, he said, quote, and I have choices. So some people said, okay, Well, what is that? What, why do he have to say, and I have choices, right? Is he just trying to flex and say I'm the Cowboys owner? Or was it in reference to something more? Right. And I think when we, when you think about the fact that that Dan Quinn turned down multiple head coaching interviews to stay in Dallas, right? You've also got rumblings of Sean Peyton. He stepped away for it a little bit. There's no secret of the ties. He's got to the cowboy. Right. So we can kind of begin to form some thoughts around when Jerry Jones, I, and I have choices, what he means by that. But do you see anything cryptic about that? And, and I also, the other thing I would, I would be risk if I didn't mention was Jerry Jones to me had as a cowboy fan, kind of the goal to say, we think we're more competitive than we are were last year. We feel really good about getting into super bowl. They've lost Fannie Gregory. They've lost Collins. They've lost Atari Cooper. They've lost guard Charing guard, con Williams. They've lost Cedric Wilson. They've lost some key parts yet. He says we're in a better position to compete super bowl. You know, you wonder is this kind of Jerry Jones putting on a bit of a an acting job, although, well, knowing the deck's not stacked in our favor as much this year. McCarthy's a sitting duck. I'm gonna use this year to justify it and then bring the guy I really wanna bring on what do you make of all this, honestly. Okay. Look, I'm not sure that we're not just putting more things into it than it was. Could it be that he's basically saying that it's not that I don't have choices. I believe he's a man. I've had other choices. Think of it this way. If, if you were to tell a lady. That I, I wouldn't be with you if I didn't think you were everything I wanted to be and all that. And trust me, I, and I I've I've I've got some choices too, so it's just, it's it's it's, it's a bit of a dig. Isn't it? It's just it's. So who isn't it okay. To a woman? Yes. To a woman. Yes. But to other men, To other men. Yes. I'm just saying to, to, okay. Okay. So you don't put any weight in the fact that he's saying that, that he actually does have choices. Right? And, and, and that his point is, is because to me, to me, Dan Quinn, why would Dan Quinn decide to stay in Dallas? Okay. Now, now you're tying shit together. That might be true, but it's not what Jerry Jones said. All Jerry Jones was saying is that. I got this guy in here. It not like he was the only, its not like he's the only coach on the market. So do you, I have choices. So do you believe Jerry Jones when he says, I believe this is the man to get us who the ultimate goal of Subaru you, do you believe that he believes that in his core? No. Okay. So then some of it was posturing. Well, that's Sherry Jones, Steve. I mean, come on. You think this? Nobody asked him nobody. He just volunteered this. I, I believe me. If, if you ask Sherry Jones, he's gonna say all I'm saying is that I'm not desperate for a co I could get different coaches. I believe this's the man for the job. It would be shocking to me if you, I don't think it's cry. I, I think it was just trying to be complimentary, but we were just tying shit that we know to be true. We know here's the difference. It would not be shocking to me if Jerry Jones on his chessboard, doesn't already have some things lined up in his mind if Mike McCarthy fumbles this season, of course, whereas other coaches, other owners don't have that same train of thought about their current coaches, right? Like you don't know, that's not true. Okay. Would, do you think the chiefs or the Steelers or the bills or any of those teams have a plan beer plan C if their team doesn't play well with you? No, but, but, but here's, well, here's one thing you're not taking into account. We haven't talked about coaching vacancies coming up, and this is gonna sound shocking. I was thinking about it. What coaches are in the hot seat? This. I'm like has to be, McCarthy has to be one of'em McCarthy is the clear cut. Only. I'm not saying that he like this, his seat might not be very hot, but name one other team where the coach is less job security than Mike McCarthy, every single team this is for. And I was thinking, I'm like, oh my God. For the first time we are going to a season where there's, I, I can't actually figure on any coaches being on a hot seat. And then I start thinking about it. I'm like, well, even though they won the division last year, Mike McCarthy, Mike, McCarthy's probably the, the, he probably has the warmest seat out of any coach. And I I'm thinking about it. You're right. Because all the teams that were awful last year have new coaches. So these, all the new coaches, right? I, I, I can't, yeah. It's almost like think of a, a team that doesn't have a new coach who that coach is now on the hot scene. I don't think you have one may, maybe. Maybe cliff Kingsbury, if the Cardinals totally implode, like maybe I, I don't know. Yeah. But, but right now, what right now, maybe Pete, Carol, right? Maybe like the, the Seahawks just totally tanked this year without their core. And they realize it's just time to, it's just time to move on from each other. Yeah. But, but he'll, he'll get another year or he'll retire right now. I don't think there's any hot season in the NFL right now. I think there's Mike McCarthys is the warmest seat. In the NFL right now. It, it is because you look at the talent he's been given and what he is been able to produce. Right. It's it's, there's, there's an imbalance there. I, I agree. I agree. So, so, so that, so that's, so that's why you're not gonna find my point is Jerry Jones is posturing. That's the point is he, he knows that we know that he knows that. Right. And so it would be shocking to me if he has an awardee in his mind, lined up the next. Potentially, or the next question question, is what's he thinking or is he thinking about Dan or is he thinking about his buddy? I think, think, I mean, come on. Right? Who values friendships more than Jerry Jones, right? How you think about his buddy? Yeah. Sean Payton. So bringing Sean Payton and, and make Dan associate head coach in charge of defense, something like that, that, that would be. Incredible. We, we, we would lose courage for about three weeks and look, and it's it's, it sounds counter corrected because that would mean the Cowboys gonna have to struggle this year for that to happen. Right. But I'm totally down. I'm totally, I would much rather have that than have like McCarthy barely win the east. When a, when a, when a wild car, a playoff game and then tank in the division, like, like, I don't wanna, I don't need to see that again. You know, like, Hey, I just, I just list, you know, people that are listening somebody mentioned what if, what if, what if Jimmy G gets sent to Detroit? That that would be a possibility, but again, I don't wanna go down that line. Siberia, that's Siberia, right? Okay. Char let's go. Let's go from from, I guess, that, that topic to the topic of greatness on the other side of the house, Tom Brady gets another weapon. Yes. Julio Jones, the all come on, receiver to Tampa. He's not the player used to be, obviously he had a fairly productive season with Titans last year. And now obviously for Jones, this has gotta be about a. Playing with the great Tom Brady B really as his career begins to kind of wind down, playing on a team that has an opportunity win a Superbowl. Right. I also think about the books last year, char down the stretch, they had a lot of injuries at water receiver. Antonio brown was her God. One was hobble Evans battles and injuries, right? Like they just didn't have all their guys their full core healthy. Down the stretch last year. And so it is not a situation where, and, and by the way, they, so they've got Evans and Godwin locked up, they all assign Russell gauge this off season, a really nice slot piece for them. So it's not like you're gonna need Julio to come in and do a ton. Whereas last year, Tennessee, I think, was asking him to really be a true, like X on the other side of AJ brown, if anything. I'd say Julio for the playoffs. If, if I were them, because they don't, they don't necessarily need Julio for 17 games, but it's a nice signing. He's a veteran guy. He can run the routery. He's still got some physicality to his game. I like the, the addition, but is it gonna be, oh, Julio's gonna. Go back to having a 1500 yard season. No, that Julio doesn't exist anymore, but I think it's a very nice piece in a good addition for both sides. What do you think? Right. Well, let's, let's look at it this way in the off season last year, everybody's talking about Julio going to Tennessee and nobody was talking about ag green going to Arizona. We were kind of like Fu fooling dead. Ended up that AJ green had was more of a factor with Arizona than, than Julio was with with the Titans. Yeah. They asked AJ green to go basically play ex X receiver outside. Just, just run up the field and, and catch a jump shot, you know jump balls, catch a jump balls. And, and he was doing that. And. Okay. I flew food. Like when, when you were saying Julio Jones and talent and, and, and everything I think it's a fantastic move for the bucks because now you have, what do they do with Evans on that side? They just thrown the ball and he catches touchdowns. Right? Mm-hmm they're gonna be, they're gonna have two of those guys on either side now. Yeah, and, and, and you're gonna, you're gonna have God win and you're gonna have Russell G you know, running the slot and, and keep in mind they lost. They lost. So now you have a guy that Tom can just basically throw it up in the air and, and, and have him catch it. If, if Julio's, if Julio is gonna be happy getting five catches, four catches a game for 60 yards, 70 yards. I think he's very happy with that. No, I'm not telling you through course of a season. I'm saying like, if, if that's basically what they're asking them to do. Yeah. Just like, you know, get, get some jump balls and, and get some first downs and couple of touchdowns. I think it's a great move because now, now you can, now Tom has two guys that he can basically just, he, he's not even a guy that I would necessarily even need to have active every week, especially given Julio's, you know, in injury, but like Julio only played 10 games last year. Right. He had 434 yard. So not, not, not amazing across those 10 games, but like he's a guy who I almost, I wanna make sure he's healthy for the playoffs more than anything else. I think the problem with that was that the problem with that was that Tennessee asked him to do too much. Yeah. Agreed, agreed. So, so I think the bucks, they're a much different situation where you've. A good stable of guys who can come in and take some of that pressure off of Julio. Right? Evans, Godwin we've talked about Russell G. Tyler Johnson, another great player, Scotty Miller, the speedster, right? They've got some nice pieces. Julio does not and have a lot of pressure on him coming in. And I, I would love to see him stay healthy and be used sparingly enough to where he can actually be, be an impact maker in the playoffs. It's I think the fact that he's not gonna be the number one target on any route. Is is gonna, it's gonna help him because when you ask your receiver to be the number one target of a quarterback in, in a given play, he has to make several moves and, and that's where really injuries can happen. Like, you know, cuts on the field with a guy on you, bumping you doing all that stuff. If, if I'm the bucks I'm gonna have Julio run three routes, I'm gonna have him run a, I'm gonna have him run a nine route. I'm gonna have him run a comeback and I'm gonna run a, have him run like a slot, you know, slant or in pattern. That's. So where he's on, where he's only making one cut. Yeah. Where, where the older receivers get in trouble is they start pulling, you know, the soft tissue stuff is making multiple cuts on the same plate. Yeah. Yeah. If you, if you ask Julio, because that's look, that's what AJ green did and by the way, he's, he, he's always been a big, he's never been a small shoe. He's a big guy. He's always been. Yes. He, him and AJ green are, are basically the, the same guy. And look what Arizona did with AJ green. He just, he literally played the side. That's all AJ green did last year, but it worked. It worked really well. It worked and that's all they gotta do. That's all they gotta do. And, and that's, I think that's gonna be a good supplement for losing bro. And, and I, I think, I think it's a great move for them. And to your point, he just can't get, he just can't get injured. And that's why I say you just need to have Julio, just, you know, even on run plays, don't block, just, just run nine routes, not run your run your receiver off the off the line of scrim. That's what I'm saying. Don't even have an active every week. He's not a guy you need active every week, but, but it's, it's, it's a nice piece for Tom Brady. I mean, I would've loved to have seen this, this this happen maybe six, seven years ago when Julio was in his prime. that would've been amazing, but but nevertheless, we'll take it. Julio is one of my favorite players star. I actually have a t-shirt that says I have Julio Jones on my fantasy team and I'm gonna beat you. So he's, he's a guy that I've always admired as a, as, as a fan from afar. And yeah, he always, he always killed him cuz he never scored touchdowns for me years that I had him. But, but man, this guy was just such a productive player for many, many years. And I just love to me, he's a pro and his prime, the prototype. Oh yeah. I mean a guy that's built like that is explosive and can run the route tree and is man, I don't, I think Julio Jones, if you wanted to build. A guy in a laboratory, right? Oh yeah. That was a per receiv. It doesn't get, well, I would do Megatron close of that. I would do Megatron number one, but Julio is a pretty close second Megatron to me wasn't as explosive speedwise as Julio five tight end play wide receiver. Julio can, Julio could score anywhere on the field, the ball. So and at that size, and that frame is just incredible to watch. So I'm excited to see how this plays out for the bucks and Tom Brady. And yeah, it's, it's definitely gonna, gonna help them and hopefully keep them off the injury bug on the receivers. As the season progresses sharp. That's what we got this week. Next week, we will get back and wrap up our final divisional preview going south. NFC south AFC, south will wrap and that'll wrap up our, our divisional coverage as we get in the thicker training camp. We'll have some training camp headlines coming out as well. We'll talk about and, and much, much more man preseasons coming up. Yeah, we're gonna have we're what? Only a few weeks away or from our preseason action, so, oh yeah. Let's get it rolling, baby. We'll yes, sir. I'm already doing market tight ends and fullbacks, but it'll be fun. I'm already doing my fantasy mock drafts. I've been doing a whole bunch of it's getting that time of year, but we're not sure Kuro might go. And his mansion in the Hamptons. What you, what you think?
