bread or go hungry that TV Dennis born 80-inch whatever yeah and and don't forget this oldie but a goodie the worst actress award goes to talking about tongue-tied three Trump detention centers about

one thing after another after another and now they're all trying to audit people I guess who work there or audit my pillow people who are answering the phones there's like five or six audits going on I mean they're just trying to shut down their phone incoming phone lines which you know a huge part of the audience for my pillow probably uses the number they're not technically savvy they're not

out I probably should that they know then you're from this audience when you use that number but I'll bet it's a lot of people who use the number and now they're going after his phone room it's just

and the Seattle Seahawks are up seven nothing with the ball on their own 20 so we'll see Giants no Saquon Barkley tonight gonna be tough for them to come back France says the game is a mess they're all over the place I haven't had a chance really to check it in cuz I'm on the show but yeah seven nothing Seattle we'll check the score a little bit later and some sad news especially for our Red Sox fans over the weekend former Red Sox knuckleballer Tim Wakefield dies at the age of 57 ESPN news terrible right yeah Tim Wakefield the knuckleballing workhorse of the Red Sox pitching staff who bounced back if they're giving up a season-ending home run to the Yankees in the 2003 playoffs to help Boston win its curse-busting World Series title the following year has died he was 57 the Red Sox announced his death in a statement Sunday Wakefield had brain cancer according to former teammate Curt Schilling who disclosed the illness on a podcast leaked last week without Wakefield's consent the Red Sox confirmed an illness at the time but did not elaborate saying Wakefield had requested privacy Wakefield told ESPN in 2011 that he learned the pitch as a boy from his father Steve when the two of them would play catch in the backyard at home in Melbourne Florida it was something to basically tire me out Wakefield said his dad shown him at a pitch relying on the old-timey pitch that had largely fallen into disuse he went on to win 200 major league games including 186 with the Red Sox behind behind only Cy Young and Roger Clemens in franchise history so the third greatest pitcher on the Red Sox ever passes away yesterday at the age of 57 57 everybody's dying young like we're already down three years from our median lifespan since before car this cancer David's catching a lot of people unfortunately yeah I said but are they getting cancer because of some of them because of the Vax you know could be kicking off stuff you know this is crazy I know so many young people are dying yeah I don't know how long that illness was and though let's get to a big D let's get bad news Europe holds off the United States to win Ryder Cup this is Marc Schley back of ESPN I'm sorry I'm not supposed to be talking what was the title they did what Europe holds off the United States off they try to be nice what can I tell you Monticello Italy Tommy Fleetwood has never won a PGA Tour event in the United States but the Englishman sure had broken plenty of American hearts when the Ryder Cup is played on European soil Fleetwood won the clinching point for the European team with a three and one victory over Ricky Fowler in the 44th Ryder Cup at Marco Simone Golf Club on Sunday the Europeans needed 14 and a half points to win back the Ryder Cup and Fleetwood's win after Fowler conceded on the 16th hole gave them a 15-10 lead with three matches left on the course and their eventual 16 and a half to 11 and a half victory big D it was America's American teams seven straight Ryder Cup defeat outside the US it last won in a road match at the Belfry Inn was this walk-wisher England in 1993 so they don't do too good when they go over the line there big D that's for sure and that's a wrap in sports back to you big deal time did well we have to go to break all right let me talk to you about birch gold you know last month the g20 announced a plan to impose digital currencies and digital IDs on their respective populations central bank digital currencies essentially allow the government to track every purchase you make they could even allow officials to prohibit you from purchasing certain products or easily freeze or seize part or all of your money a government-issued digital currency I mean you don't need to be a brain surgeon to figure out what a disaster that

be nice to have some gold you can fall back on all right 18 past the hour live from studio 6b a bunch of other stuff I want to try to get to I know we got Charlie Kirk coming up here in the next half hour 15 20 minutes or so but I think the other important thing that I came across today that I think I want to just draw some attention to because given the state of the Republican Party and the things we're talking about tonight I think the other thing that we should talk about is the other side and the other party who seemingly never has the issues that the Republican Party has on anything they rally the wagons they circle the wagons they blink arms and they burn the place down on their way through to get to where they want to get like and I and I draw the California at the top of the show what Gavin Newsom did with the Senate seat to point out the difference and they are just they are just viciously effective in putting their best radicals in the places to fight their most radical fights in the Republican Party just does not do that we don't have any fighters people still talk about the Senate as if it's 51 49 or 52 48 whatever the hell the numbers are it doesn't even matter it's 90 10 Democrats that's what it is the Senate is 90 10 that's too much damn it okay let's go by the vote last Friday it's that it's 51 49 or 52 48 whatever it is it's 85 15 and I still think that's being generous Democrats use issues to push for total control that's the headline Democrats are playing a game of hide-and-seek with the voters they hide what they're up to and the voters do very little seeking the game revolves around the philosophical mystery at the core of this party who are the Democrats what do they believe Democrat leaders especially the older ones still speak the language of caring but their policies say otherwise they're no longer the party of the New Deal offering an array of programs to help families children and working men and women instead based on their current priorities they are the party of the international managerial elite as represented by Joe Biden Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton this international elite hiding in plain sight has its own agenda rarely reported on by the mainstream media but it's been made public as the great reset of the World Economic Forum the great reset has little to do with the well-being of you or the people of this country two current issues today provide insight into the philosophical foundation of the Democratic Party today climate change and transgenderism two things that we have been speaking about that the Republicans could have get couldn't could have gotten behind in this funding priorities that were been debating here over the last weeks two of the many things that we look at and go now we're not funding that anymore in polling Democrat voters rank climate change as an important issue but less important than health care education and abortion rights transgenderism is well down the list of voter priorities transgenderism and climate change are problematic issues men cannot become women and women cannot become men gender is not a social construct but a physical reality no matter how often you assert the opposite it will not become true likewise climate change everyone knows that man-made climate change is destroying the planet the entire scientific community is united in agreement well both of those statements are false but they're never debated the science upon which climate catastrophe assertions are based is not settled just ask Nobel Prize winning scientists dr.

"Seahawks gave Geno Smith a three year deal and this is a win win because I looked at Geno Smith and I thought, all right, I had a really good year, 17 starts, 30 touchdown passes, 11 interceptions, led the league in completion percentage, career backup, and he is revitalized his career in Seattle, and I thought, okay, do something smart. And find that kind of middle ground that safe landing for everybody. And I always go back to a quarterback like Mitchell trubisky. If trubisky said to the bears, pay me $28 million a year, $30 million a year. Give me three years for $95 million. Give me 60 guaranteed. He'd still be there. Now you might say they're better off with Justin Fields, but I'm just talking about from the quarterbacking standpoint. When you go, hey, I'm next up. I want 45. I want 50. All I want to do is find a safe landing area where I can continue to be a starting quarterback, get great money, life-changing money without going to a backup role with somebody else. And you know, it feels team friendly. But Seattle had the leverage here because they could say to genome, we got a top 5 draft pick. We are going to use that on a quarterback. And they might use that on a quarterback because who knows the next time they'll be up in that area. Of the draft. But for Geno, take the money, get the money, guaranteed money, you can be the starting quarterback for at least two more years. Maybe you're going to outplay the numbers in your contract. Maybe you would get another contract after this. But don't, it's like Daniel Jones with the Giants. Daniel Jones should be looking at that safe soft landing area. Not $45 million a year. Would I pay that based off one really good year? No. I wouldn't. Now, do I franchise him and say, all right, let me see you do it again. Even if you gave him the non exclusive and you paid him 32 million is somebody going to sign him to a deal and then give you two first round draft picks for Daniel Jones. I don't think so. Therefore, I'd say to Daniel Jones, we'd still like you to be our starting quarterback, but we don't want to pay you what is commensurate to some of the great quarterbacks of the game. You've got to make it a little team friendly. Now I'm all for the player getting whatever they can get, but you got to be smart in a situation like this because you don't want to price yourself out of a starting job. And you're playing in New York. But if you want to bet on yourself, just say franchise tag me and I'll prove it again. Saquon Barkley. What do you do with saquon Barkley?

"It's recognizing the golden child Tessa. That's that has been an overhang. You know, because of the Twitter spider web. Dan, do they have to come out with new models? The original Model S isn't that the same as it's been for ten years. And they all look like that. Do they need to come up with anything? How do they talk about that? Well, they do because then you start to get into four 1919 going into 1927 where GM basically overtook them because they worked in innovate. I think if you look, the CyberTruck coming out later this year. I think potentially an SUV, you know, in terms of some of the roadster and some others, they're going to need to expand that from a penetration perspective. But then you take a step back. We are in the early days of the biggest transmission to the auto industry since 1950s. I mean, the CyberTruck will be huge when it comes out. It's just a bummer that it keeps getting delayed and delayed and delayed and everybody else gets to some extent in advantage the Ford has gotten great reviews. Paul loved it. It looks very traditional. The Chevy seems like it's going to be even better. The GMC Hummer is like on another level. The CyberTruck could be a better product than all of those, but it's just coming so many years late that everybody with a $150,000 to spend an electric truck has already done it. And now if you look at this stuff coming at GM and Ford, it is a renaissance that I believe has happened in Detroit. And that's why for Tessa, it's about me sure that this window opportunity, they don't lose. But the ultimate takeaway here is that they are put in iron fence around their backyard by the price cut and that call last night felt I'd say exactly what the bulls needed to sort of take this house. The way I always forget to mention rivian. And I shouldn't, because we have listeners who love the Riviera. Yeah, they look pretty cool. They look amazing. What do you think about the company about rivian? Is it gonna be a challenger? Because they have also got production nightmares, the likes of which Elon Musk would have dreamt of back in the day. No doubt, missing a lot of time rivian. At their factory in Illinois, I'm bullish on rivian in terms of where they could take this. Clearly there have been just massive speed bumps coming out of the gate. They need to navigate that, but they are going to be a player for many, many years. Dan, you're a football giant New York Giants football Giants fan. What do they do with Daniel Jones and saquon Barkley? Oh, I think they resign. Both and especially the goat SAE Kwan, I think that's a no brainer that they have to re sign them. Okay. All right. I mean, that's in my opinion, those are two. I think that proved that this year that now I'd be shocked if they don't re sign them. How about pennsylvan football increasingly abolish? They had a good year. Didn't beat Ohio State or Michigan, but still a good year. And still have those bruises that I'm wearing after beating two time PAC 12 champ and I believe they're a top 5 team next year. I think that they've now made that weep into the elite category. All right. And bullish on Penn State football. I just configured my Tesla Model X and it's only a 122 5. So it's not insanely easy, dude. I know, but I didn't add the auto full autopilot full self-driving feature. So I'm saving like $6000 there. All right, Dan ice, what security? Joining us here in our Bloomberg interact is broker studio talking all things Tesla. This is Wimbledon. Now your company news headlines. From Bloomberg world headquarters, I'm Steve rappaport, better numbers and a better forecast drive Tesla into the green, the stock opening higher after the electric automaker topped expectations in the fourth quarter. Tesla also says it's on track to deliver about 1.8 million vehicles this year representing a production boost of about 38%. Elon Musk on a call with analysts predicted output of nearly 2 million vehicles without unexpected disruptions. Shares of meta platforms are up after the tech giant announced it will reinstate former president Trump's Facebook and Instagram accounts, more from Bloomberg's Kurt Wagner. We kind of expected I think this is what Facebook was going to do because what they'd said was they needed to basically figure out, is there still a heightened risk of violence in this case, right? That's why he was suspended after January 6th. And it's been two years, right? So I think it would have been hard for them to come up with a good reason to keep him off and said they're bringing him back and saying, if he has more violations, he'll be suspended again quite quickly. Meta says suspensions for future violations will range from one month to two years depending on the severity of the offense.

"I don't think we're going to have much of a choice. And if we do that, then we're going to have to run it back with saquon too because if we don't have him, then we don't. So I think this is going to be a really tough off season for Joe Shane because I want to see how he structures all this. How long would you make a sake home Barkley deal? How long would you make a Daniel Jones deal? I have no idea. I mean, and by the way, saquon 35 carries today, which is just, I mean, it's always good when you get a lot of carries, 'cause that means you had the win, but you had the lead for most of the game. But boy, what a nice thing for saquon Barkley to have games where he carries the ball 35 times. And it's not like last year where it's like 35 carries for 48 yards. Yeah. Open space and just, I mean, we've said this on the show before, but there was legitimately a time where I felt so warped in the upside down and there were certainly plenty of NFL folks who were saying this, but that we thought that saquon had a problem. Like they were like, oh, what Penn State if you look all the runs are kind of like this and you know, he never really actually learned how to run behind an offensive line and you convince yourself that that's true. And you're like, yeah, 'cause like Joe judge would have been able to figure this out or pat Shermer would have been able to figure this out or Ben mcadoo. Well, it turns out no. Because all of their offenses are bad too, and this one is really good. And good for them. It's really neat. It shows what you're able to do when you just coach the F out of a game. And Brian dabel is coached the F out of 7 games now already. Yeah. And by the way, before we go on to the next one, my three second draft take right now on the quarterbacks. Bryce young? Will levis, no one else for me. Two, that is it. And then where would Daniel like an already seasoned Daniel Jones factor into that? Oh, he'd be third. He'd be thrown on that list. There's not a, if it's not Bryce young or will levis, I don't want him on my team on my imaginary but you mentioned team at Harvard. But you would rather both of them than Daniel Jones. Yeah, but that won't be now. Both those guys should be off the board top 5. And no one else should go round one is my take care. Tough blow for abracadaniel here.

"Well, this was a fun one for the show, Connor. Boy, abracadaniel recovers from a bad red zone interception. It sort of got beat up some protection issues, Jeffrey Simmons, boy. Jeffrey Simmons is quite the player. If I do say so, but this ends up being Daniel Jones getting it done in the end and saquon Barkley pretty much looking like what saquon Barkley was supposed to be coming into the NFL. Can you imagine a more satisfied person on earth right now today than saquon Barkley? I thought you were going to say Dave gettleman. No. No, because here's the thing. Saquon Barkley ended up sort of dying for Dave gettleman since, right? Yeah. Dave gettleman drafted saquon Barkley as the capstone of this masterpiece that had no foundation or no blueprint or no plan. He was just like here. A franchise running back. Now, now it's working. And every giant's coach that came after that was like, why didn't he help us out with anything else? Like Quinton Nelson, could I please have Quinton Nelson? But Brian dabel was the first coach to look at this and just be like, all right, you know, this isn't going to be great, but we're going to be able to get him in some space. We're going to be able to move him around. And that's exactly what they did. They got him involved, and they utilized him as a really fast and strong 225 pound person who can beat you with athleticism. What a novel concept. Long plays, big plays, two from Barkley, one long touchdown to Sterling shepherd, and they just kind of hung around. The defense is still not particularly good, but they were certainly good enough to keep this one from getting out of hand. I mean, it was a 13 zero game and that they came back and obviously they win it late. On a two point conversion and then get a little bit of help from a good old Randy Bullock. Pulling that kick. But yeah man, this is satisfying and again, like on top of sigma Barkley, you had kadir's Tony not terribly involved in the office, but when he was, it was just kind of like, wow, this guy is really difficult to tackle. You know, they had sort of a broken wide receiver option pass where he turned it into a 5 yard gain where a lot of guys would have either thrown an interception or, I don't know, lost 11 yards on the play. So Watson neat stuff here. Was he worth the first round pick? I mean, that's not that's not for me to say, right? And this is a really difficult place to judge him because of the regime that he came in with. All that kind of stuff. I don't know if he was the first round receiver or not. I'm not, you know, I'm not angry scout. I don't know these things with absolute certainty. But what I do know is that all these players were used situationally the way that we all assumed they would have been used when they were drafted.

CEO of X2, Mark French, on How His Product Has Disrupted the Market
"Now. A couple of questions. I have here for you one. Is you guys are operating this business. And i would say that it is. It is disruptive what you're doing from what i can tell. The brand seems to be disruptive. What do you accredit the the rapid growth to do. What do you attribute the rapid growth to why is it. Being such a disruptive success. I would say there's more people coming to the category now right so there's certain people that would never try an energy drink right that more health conscious consumer really was not interested in putting in other bodies some of these beverages that had you know some you know ingredients that you can't even pronounce so as more people. Are you know looking for energy solutions. Whether it's a coffee drinker. That wants something. A little bit cleaner lighter Or you know somebody that might be drinking other energy drinks but is trying to live a healthier lifestyle. You know. i think that's really where the disruption comes in also. There's never really been a brand that you know was built in the locker room in this energy category right so you know. We're really fortunate that Death net recently featured us as a sports drink. Innovator we're not really a sports drink. We're not a hydration drink or something that you might take Before you want to do some exercise or if you wanna just have a little bit more energy and focus throughout the workday but you wanna have it with clean healthy ingredients and you know the other reason why people might consider us to be somewhat. Disruptors is just because of you know this athlete a model. there really haven't been athletes like saquon. Barkley labonte david kawhi leonard and now kendall tool who's one of the top peleton athletes That are joining a company like ours as shareholders and partners in the business. I think it's just you know shedding some light that there is renovation innovation in the energy category and that's where we could probably be looked at as being somewhat

"saquon" Discussed on Fantasy Focus Football
"I mean people question twitter like thousand percent. I accept that people are panicking. About about ezekiel elliott and tony. Pollard is more more realistic. I'm sorry here's one. That i think is more real because i really believe. There's been so much rhetoric about how zeke had worst case scenario matchup. There's been enough fantasy guidance. would you trade. If you had josh jacobs offered saquon barkley what you do it. Yes really yes. Oh my gosh. No i would not. Wow okay so. This is a good conversation here. I think just jacobs. That's tough defense in baltimore. He he had fourth most yards after contact. Anybody and we well. He ran well. I think you're taking one game. And your overreaction theater. It's not but i'm not reacting. I like for sake wine with saquon this okay. I'm gonna tell you why i've been. I've been anti saquon this here. Tell you is to find your bell. I'm going to tell you. And all of america especially those watching on. Espn fantasies facebook page. And that is this. That saquon barkley is going to have passing game. Usage like both teams have offensive. Line concerns all jokes aside. Josh jacobs is a good runner. He's a good. Nfl runner they. I'm not. I'm not anti josh. Jacobs the nfl player. I am not a legitimately not. He's legitimately talented. Nfl running back but that offensive line. He's not going to be involved in the passing game and that offensive line has some questions and impressive victory but like he bailed you out with the touchdowns like if he didn't get the touchdowns and you're sitting here with like three point four fantasy points or four point four fantasy points. You're like what just happened right. And the game they want and a game in which they put up thirty three point but he did get the touchdown but like you know what those are. Those are hard to count on onto saying. I think saquon gets a more consistent. They both have offensive line issues. I think saquon has more passing game. Involvement has over the second half of the year. we'll have more big playability. And i think ultimately the good i'll say for you guys. Would you take a board bet against a fun. Yeah sure you have josh. Jacobs jacobs rest of the season. Yeah i'll do that you okay. All right i say saquon barkley has more fantasy points. The rest of the year from week to on that josh jacobs i say josh jacobs has more fancy points in saquon. Barkley the rest of the year. Put it on board honestly like i. I'm having a hard time. We just made the bet but the day. Yeah break the tie so by instinct. I wanna lead to find you. Just because she's lying or more importantly she's not not you right. However i have to like i have to have some process involved in my rankings and to cut bait after one week when i had saquon i think it was like twelve spots hiring back rankings feels a little bit knee jerk to me. I know sake on this year. I have zero shares of saquon barkley in any league. That i play in and i'm comfortable with that and i'm is outside my top thirty for week. Two running back rankings against the washington football team on thursday night. I would not be starting saquon barkley this week. That being said we thought the narrative was the same all off season. Right if he gets right saquon barkley can be the fantasy difference maker. Here's one. I think you could possibly maybe get last one here and then maybe get josh shake for nausea harris. Who had a bad game. Yeah that's and also about offensive line. Yeah it's a new york. Second i think nigeria nigeria's played every offensive snap. I will keep dodgy. Minute wouldn't have a new york minute for them. But i'm saying in the new york second times faster people in new york true move things forward. 'cause we got rolling here. Just quickly on the raiders pass catchers. You mentioned brian edwards four catches on five targets for eighty one yards. He's a monitor from me right. Not ready to invest in bryan edwards. Lot of came late and really the entire raiders. Passing game is about one man..

New York Giants RB Saquon Barkley Questionable to Play vs. Denver Broncos
"Saquon. Barkley is listed as questionable after practicing all week. But i think really laura what they're saying to us is we have to list them on the injury report. The we expect saquon barkley to play on sunday against the denver broncos. I do not expect him however to be his normal one hundred percent workload self. The giants are being smart with him as they have all off season

"That's mike's three point. Conversion four week one. here's mine. Beware of the electrical outage in dc. I the chargers game with austin actors situation with his hamstring injury. Being up in the air. That makes it if it would make justin herbert's job even that much more difficult against that washington front and for as much mike is the chargers have upgraded their offense of line. It is week one. You still aren't necessarily sure on if everything's going to work as one cohesive unit beware of the electrical outages in dc for the chargers mainly because of that washington front and hamstring number. Two all bark. No bite is my headline there. And i'm talking about saquon barkley. There's all this talk saquon ramping. Up hundred percent is going to be the guy. I just don't think mike that the giants can throw him out there and expect that he's going to have twenty four to thirty carries in this game against denver. And honestly that's probably the last thing you wanna do. A guy that you still have under contract for a couple more years and is coming off of a serious knee injury. So as much of the positivity that you're getting from from the giants in saquon barclays availability for week one. Be cautious all bark no bite against denver and finally purple rain vikings in cincinnati. It's the if there was a lock. I guess that would be my lock in with that. I would try to play as many vikings as good against the cincinnati bengals. It's my three point conversion dacca way right. I wanna see what cincinnati is. That offensive line's still concerns. Me and i think short fields for captain kirk and company adam feeling and the the whole band of merryman. Hell even chris herndon. The fourth might be worth a daily. Now he's not as for saquon barkley a couple of days ago. They were still saying you're going to be ready for week one. Oh that that. That's not very encouraging. And i like rope-a-dope opportunities like they did it with dak prescott. And then all of a sudden there was a burst of positivity and he comes out on the scene like a beast and lasts. Because you know you brought up the charges. Just jackson is going to be the number one guy. Go cats while the waiver wire right now are three point conversions in before we wrap up i just because it was only fitting for me being a moron implying ronald jones in week one knowing full. Well what. Bruce arians was going to do that mike was. Let's bring it back for our epic fails it probably gimmie three epic fails.

"Nothing much other than the few wins. Just kidding No i think will be a good team Saquon barkley come back. I think that'll help him out Daniel jones has a lot to prove people ready to run him out of new york if he doesn't advanced him and make them look like a team that could compete in division. Dave gettleman saying based on players he signed in picked. I think that they will compete. Though i liked joe judge competitive nature as a head coach. they're probably they're probably nine. I would say probably nine ten win type team. Nine or ten wins really. That's what i think. I think there are anonymous. Say i thought that before the preseason what bothers men okay you could talk about like what you can and can't tell the preseason what bothers me so much though you come into a job if you're gettleman and you know what the issue is. It's the old line year in and year out. It's the offensive line. You say that's your priority. You gotta fix that. That's what you say. The introductory press conference hog. Molly's you gotta fix the line guys. It's not just that. They miss on draft. Picks like they pass up. Better lineman for less reliant in first round flowers and thomas. it's they also don't cutch coach up because like flowers leaves the giants now. He's a starting tackle. he's pretty good. He was no good with them so the line. Both from drafting and development remains a glaring weakness. Jay and i'd love to believe key that they could win ten games and i thought maybe they could before i saw the light and the preseason again yeah only their second. This is on the second unit. Second time around with this office staff. So you gotta give them an opportunity to develop those guys think about it. They fired offense. Allying coach in the middle of the season. Every team in this division has weaknesses for sure. All right so i understand. I've harped about the line for a long time. It is what it is right now. You gotta go out there and do what you gotta do what you got so if i look at the giants of saying okay struggles a little but we still have a lot of offense of talent. Defense is middle of the pack defensively. They got better be good if they got a lot. Better last year. Right okay so eagles. Are we putting him in that conversation. Continue for division not really. We're not sure to upset with jalen hurts. Defense we talk about the dallas cowboys always being a glaring issue. What they bring to the table offensively and in washington. What do they get offensively. We're ryan patrick. So look i think this is a division of questions about a lot of teams and it's about which team can actually grow them. I think the potential there for dallas and for the giants are probably higher. Because i don't see ripest. Patrick really going to another level this year insulate for to washington football up. Look who we have. We have a man now. Ladies and gentlemen who five thirty eight when they were on. Espn once did a thing. Who's the most clutch quarterback in the history of postseason. Eli wanted by their metrics. They invented by so much they redid it. They said no. No one can be this far ahead of everyone else. They actually redid the way they did it. And guess who one ally again but this time. It was close over joe montana and areas the most clutch quarterback according to five thirty eight in the history of football in the playoffs ally. Welcome to the show and thank you for winning. Those two super bowls as the giants fan. Never gotten to do that for you. Personally thanks for coming. Max regret to be grabby on with you guys. You were with a daniel jones as a rookie and we've heard a lot of people think that he can take that step forward this season. What are you expecting from the giants quarterback this year. Yeah i do. I think he will to take that step forward. Just because i think the fact that it is his second year within this offense last year you know a new offense new head coach new offensive coordinator. He's a young quarterback and it's not just him. It's a new left tackle. They were trying to learn. New offense new lou saquon early just a lot of things that were that. Make it tough. I think the fact that you know had a more of an off season this year. you know. Build that relationship with coach geared And they've put some weapons behind them getting sake one back at the offense line would be better in their second year so i i've seen firsthand just how hard daniel works. I know how important it is to own for him to be a successful player. I know he knows this year is a big year form. But he's not that's not going to put pressure on admits that is going to make him Excel and do better. So i'm rooting form And i think he has the work ethic the skill set to make those plays now. He's he's made the mistakes he's gonna learn from those and i think he can go out there and have a big year alive hadn't haven't played in this league for very long time and having success that you had you know the importance of having a dominant running back in a running game. Would you play saquon barkley and week one. If he's healthy. Assume you know. I've always wondered why. Why sit some guy week. One and also their plan. You know week to their full. Go what what's happening and that one or two weeks after his head you know Ten months to recover. So i know the giants will be sparked. And do it's right but if he's rain to play i think you've got to get them out there getting reps and whether he's a starter where you might not get thirty carries week one but you know just to get them in the game. Get his confidence going. Get his feel back going catching the football field and the rush taken a hit. All those things need to happen. A little bit for him Just to get back in the feel of things. So he's such a dominant player They need him To be successful this year running. The football catching the football. And then when he's on the field it changes the game plan Of the defense and they got to prepare for different things and so it should open up other players. And they have the skill set on the outside kinney golladay and sterling shepard seven-day grim and these guys to get them get them the ball. Let them make some plays. Eli speaking of skill. Set you and your brother. Peyton have a skill set which will be on display on monday night football. Which we're all excited to pay attention to the raiders versus the ravens. What kind inside can you provide about. What what would that feel like for you. You and your brother to be on the same talking about football some nazem doing all your lives. Yeah you know it's it'd be fun just the fact that you know i. I don't think i've watched the monday night. Football with my brother in twenty five years since he was probably in high school and And we would watch together and so the fact that he'll be doing it from denver. I'll be doing it from from a house in new jersey. But we'll still be on the couch ethic. That's the feel is what would it be like to watch a football game. Peyton and eli in their living room and this is what you're getting at so it'll be us telling stories..
First Take
"saquon" Discussed on First Take
"The ball as a quarterback but his thought ooh because of the lack of protection. He made nate solder yes. They sold the patriots gave up on him. The highest eight left at one again right. You told me that. He didn't sign beckham to trade maybe trade. He's lied to us. He's lied to you. Molly even lied to you and he's lied to me. You told me this offense. A line was rebuilt was better suited to be able to protect danny docile. We can have a true assessment of what it was and then we watched the patriots and they don't have no elite pass. Who do it looked like. It was a turn. stop turn. I mean daddy. Don's running for his life. I think. Danny dom maybe a franchise quarterback i think he's a league but we won't find out he's gonna be ryan tannehill. He's going to go somewhere else. And we're going to realize that. They had josh allen but they never was able to see if he was josh allen because they couldn't protect saquon barclays fold to have newton blood. Right you take. Somebody's second overall. I expect christian. Mccaffrey right he's going to have to be able to. He's gonna have to be adrian peterson. He's going to have the comeback from that injury in. Show me two thousand yards. Because they had the fifteen million dollar elephant in the room I don't know he was. He lied to you. Well that's not. There's no surprise there saying lots of people in carolinas well and he botched up. I mean the way they handle josh normal years ago. Give me started with that. But here's the deal brighter future. I still would have to say the giants right now. Really and i'm gonna tell you why first of all you just finished talking about you. Still believing danny. Don's i do all right. A lot of people believe zag wilson. We know that he's bereft of weapons at this particular moment in time. You don't have the weapons necessary if you'd in new york jets air side of the ball we ain't seeing. I don't see anything there. Okay so that's number one number two. If you looking at danny downes. What do they pick up in the off season. You still got still shepherd. He picked up kennedy golladay. Saquon barkley is coming back and by the way. Give gettleman credit for this. We do believe in. Joe judge we do we do we like we like. I understand that. But he's still got still got him. He's there so rob solid. We'll see what happens. I believe he's going to be good. I think he's going to do a good job. Douglas i don't know i i don't know that's what i'm saying. That's why i'm rolling with jumpings. Because i feel like you at this point right now you gotta coach gioja. You got a piece like saquon barkley. Danny donna no scrub okay. I'm looking at it. From that perspective you got galilee. You got you got individuals you could throw the football too so i'm looking at it from that perspective and i'm saying to myself i'm not going. I'm not gonna sell out the giants from this. I think and in the nfc east. Let's face reality. Seventeen games now. Okay not sixteen. We know that in all likelihood you need eight or nine win so you could win the division in the nfc east just who they are and so as a result of that we could see the giants battling for playoffs last two or three weeks of the season just like they were last year. I don't let out you don't believe in the team i think. Washington's defense is elite. I think the suspect. We'll see where ryan fitzpatrick. He's got an imagine. Dallas cowboys office is big tom. Their defense is trash. Let's see if that's going to change. Okay i'm just talking about last year. So washington had the defense. Dallas has the offense the philadelphia. Eagles don't have much okay. We all know the wholesale changes they needed to make. I think the nfc east is wide open. Even though i still say the dallas cowboys should win division because their offense is just that op our they should whether they will not remains to be seen. I'm just saying when i look at that. You don't wanna told me about buffalo. You told me about miami. I'm tell you about new england. Where the hell hell's that leave the j. but what's the question mark a few brighter future. We talked about president. We're not talking about whereas. I'm sorry we're talking about future right and what. The giants failed to do is to build the basement they have no foundation was built off all banks blonde. Does the jets have acted aveer tucker moses. Those are the building blocks the foundation. That office line damon woody. Nick mangold into brigger. Saw i also. He has to first round draft picks next year and i would argue that. Corey davis is elite number. One receiver he only went thousand yards. Last this is the jesse. Dams isn't a disappointment right. I feel like loss and when he comes back ben healthy the jets have believe arguably if loss and when it got hurt. Probably one of the best defensive lines we think about quinny williams showed rankings. Who's the former pro bowls and kara lawson who is ready to have a breakout year. Franklin got is going to have a breakout year you talk about blake martinez versus cj mosey. See these people forgot. He's a four time pro bowl. Yes well it isn't that got it. Is that while don't slip. Don't get me wrong mayor. Respect to him and what he has accomplished last. How much is he hat. Helmets tank so between now years last time we saw him. What did he do the he had a. He had a touchdown. Okay and a pig in one half football right own better coach. Ooh that's tough. That's all solid unproven solid foundation. That's where i'm going. And i ain't trying to cast shane. Cj moser because. I know that brought the ball. I don't get me wrong but at the end of the day when we save foundation. Will you talk about the building blocks. I'm like to me. it starts with coaching. Joe judge. I like what i see from him well. We got better every week as long as i was concerned was unknown with solid. We don't know what he used coordinator. But we dancer. Noah joe douglas's able to our he's been i would also tell you that. This is the jets organization to hired adam gays. You know he's high usually if you're doing a press conference we start taking patients call trying to say all right we got. We got paid danny blind. He just looked. Talk to tell you that much but in the end now douglas came in after you still have to just dismissed. They did hire pat. Sermons are still hanging out in the nets here in new york. That's pretty much run selling dogs. All we vote tomorrow is the big day teflon. Tom and the defending champion buccaneers. Take on dock and the cowboys start the. Nfl season the return almost their entire roster from last season. Looking forward to previewing that tomorrow. Michael stray hand will be joining us. So we'll be talking all things football bar tell me. Should the bucks beat the favorites to go back to the super bowl. No listen the good thing is they brought everybody back. They're going to have great continuity. But listen like when you're when you're full you're not hungry right. What happens when you bring new people on the team as you get your rings. Not that i've ever experienced that. But from people i know have experienced. Then what happens is is a group on a team that wants to get their ring right. So you're running back and listen to last time. Somebody's one back the back. was tom. brady early thousands so it happens but listen. You have to be be better. Be lucky than good. Sometimes listen they still have the win that division. Because then ed division they lost twice to the saints and sean payton know something about them and yeah. It wasn't with mike thompson. It was drew brees. But i would say that james winston what he showed in his preseason is a good thing owner jerry loss first of all first of all. Your take was utterly ridiculous. That's number one but but talk to was just talking about what you know. Forget that they just go do it. You try to tell me. James winston.

I mean have you not seen me looking at my phone. I constantly breaks yeah fund. Exactly my phones. My phone blows up. You know this. So let's talk so anyway. But i was just gonna say i thought this is interesting. I'm in the so we did. A league would attend team celebrity league for stephen as world. And we're gonna be talking about it on on his show starting tomorrow and like every week. Okay and stephen. Smith played fantasy for the first time which was great. He was my one person to invite. The i went running back running back in the first round. The first two rounds wound up with equity and gibson my right eye and antonio gibson i love got third came back around in the and the fourth the best wide receiver available with cd lamb grant. Yeah exactly one of field. Favorites came back around in the fifth and the best of wide receiver was amari cooper. Like all right and then. I came around the sixth. There'd been a quarterback ron but dak was still out there. And i'm like whatever let's go. How about them cowboys. I went back. I don't know what you like. I just thought that would be a fun experiment. Just see what that's like. Any season-long stanley. There's always something to do in best ball in but in a season long sort of ten team league. I thought that was kind of an interesting thought experiment. I don't know if you were by cabinet early. Interest to top twenty to top twelve running backs and top five quarterback. I'm only against your. You're rooting interest for your washington football team. You see when lose lose. Look i'm with you. That's what i did and scott fishbowl. That was my paths. Do trying to win that thing like a big tournament right and looked at the dallas offense. We've talked about this off. Season should be the highest volume offense in the nfl so good quarterback to potential. Look if you made a shortlist of teams that have to top twelve fantasy receivers this year. Dallas is on that list question with lamb cooper. I also i also knowing stephen as long standing relationship with the cowboys cowboys fans and knowing that we'd be talking about the league on his show. I thought this might was some fun contents fund. I'm excited about listening. Stephen name was great last night. I'm actually. I'm really excited about this league and surprise well it does mean. He'd never done it before. I have not to derail the podcast. But i'll just say this every i do things right every year as i've already done it. Whatever i always ask people to invite one person that's ever played fantasy. And i have known steve for a decade and i have asked him every single year to try fantasy football because he is he is one of these star of. Espn he has. He's a easy massive celebrity. And getting somebody like steven a. To embrace the game and talk about it and would be great and just his personality the frustrations and the joys of fantasy football. I think he would. He would really enjoy it. You know what i mean. And i think it would be great and i think is fans would enjoy seeing him do that and he's never wanted to do it until this year. He came to me and said i'm ready. Let's do a fantasy league. So i was like he's like can you get me a league. I'm like steven. I get you a league. And so i'm excited about it. So i think it's great for the fantasy football industry anyone with anytime somebody that has a platform as largest as embraces it. It's good for the game. And i'm just excited about that. And he was all over his instagram of talking about it today and last night and so anyway. I'm excited about that. I'm looking forward to him and michael. Irvin doing eight minutes on stephen as matchup every monday. More absolutely for good spirited. Tv let's get to the questions that we still have as. We are just about ready to start the nfl regular season and i grabbed the low hanging fruit. And i did it because one of us are going to have to do it and to me. There is no question bigger as we get to the nfl season. Saquon barclays health. And what is going to look like this. You're at saquon barclays best. We know this for a fact. It happened his rookie season. He is the best player in fantasy football and he could literally spinach as the highest scoring running back. Maybe the highest scoring player in fantasy however it feels unlikelihood reach that plateau given the fact that he is currently still getting better from an acl tear. The giants have talked about having the bigger picture in. Mind this year with saquon barkley. But we don't know is that if he's not gonna end up as rb one. Where's he going to finish because if he finishes as somewhere between rb two in rb six. None of us should be surprised but we play in the warm league. Matthew i have picked fourteen. I there's a chance not a good one but a chance at saquon is still there. I think a lot of people are extremely nervous and hoping that somebody else take saquon. Barkley ahead of them and their drafts. He is the ultimate mystery going into this season. He really is i. I will tell you what. I know mike is going to cringe at this own. This so last night in this stephen a-league again i had i had picked seven to ten team league and barkley was still there for me in the second and the second Equity know he's right. I followed my ranks but barkley was there to me in the second i just like and i. I don't have nearly enough antonio gibson whatever. This is a fun league. Go with my heart. And i took antonio gibson over saquon barkley which is probably the dumb fantasy move. But i'm all in on antonio gibson and he's one of my favorite players..

"saquon" Discussed on The Stephen A. Smith Show
"Right. We have about two minutes for saquon barkley right now. Listen a march if it's a show called kishan j. will max. I recommend it what he said on that show earlier today. I and he's right about the fact that you don't get you. Don't get the the hit. Do all the things you used to be able to do to make sure guy is ready. But you're never ready coming off a sale. You're never ready until you have that kind of sudden epiphany until you go in there and actually do it so you can wait around. You can wait around the the to tell you booth out of the league and the point being is that when when you're you know physically able to perform and you're ready to perform still mentally. There's still a hurdle you have to get over and you'll never you'll never jump over that hurdle until you get into a game so at some point you gotta play. I hear if saquon is ready and key has made this point like if your health you're healthy you gotta play the issue with me with saquon is like a couple years ago. He obviously wasn't healthy. In the second half the season wouldn't complain. They played them anyway. Maybe it made things worse. Jd play saquon or not. I don't play them week. One i i get. I give them a week i. There's nothing that can hurt. There's nothing to lose well. What if you compete denver if you play them but you're still thinking short term long term key. The thing to me is the. Nfc east might be tight. You may not need a ton of wins to win the division and maybe a game like that does make a difference. You play saquon against denver. Yeah you gotta play a maximum prior to stink marks lead coming on. I told you guys exactly what he was going to say. Because you play a guy like that that that's why we draft any. We didn't drafting the holding off two week three week. Four to see no. We know that he's capable of taking care of himself. We've put into all the test all the drills. All the football acclimated things to show us. He can cut. He can change direction he can stop on a diamond gift. Change and restart backup. We've done all that so now. Guess what we're ready to roll him out against the denver broncos because with him on the field it gives us the best chance to win but key are in the business of winning. We're not in the business of saving players in packaging. Them up is sitting on the bench with each other. I think listen. I think it's interesting because obviously that's a legitimate point of view. Just saturday did not share that. It's not just like you played for a long time and shlaim earth late. And so everyone who plays gonna agree because jeff saturday was saying no and for the reasons that jay was pointing out so even played in the league for a long time one championship played at a high level. Aren't going to see eye to eye north carolina. You do have your use an excellent when you do have a lot invested in saquon. you'd spit the second overall. Pick in the draft on him and he is capable of doing amazing. Things are not believe he's fully healthy. Is that what it is i get. I get worried that maybe he is an i understand. He can go through all the protocol. But i honestly don't know because if you just don't agree with key if what you're saying jay is he's just too valuable. You risk injury on in every game if you're running back as part of the way but if you're saying he's not healthy that's different if he's been padded practices for a while then. I'm concerned but if he just started last week. I'm like okay. That seems like there's been some caution rap. J what do you think what do you think padded practices do for you. I'm talking about contact key. Do nothing you're not taking to the. They're not that she you in practice if you up and that's pretty wait till you hear what one hall of famer thinks. Could be unstoppable coming up. Thanks for listening to kisangani. We'll match the podcast. Check the guys out live weekday mornings from six to ten eastern on espn radio..

And so everyone who plays gonna agree because jeff saturday was saying no and for the reasons that jay was pointing out so even that played in the league for a long time one championship played at a high level. Aren't going to see eye to eye. Because what north carolina you do have your use an excellent when you do have a lot invested in saquon. You'd spit the second overall. Pick in the draft on him and he is capable of doing amazing. Things are not believe he's fully healthy. Is that what it is. I i get worried that maybe he is an i understand. He can go through all the protocol. But i honestly don't know because if you just don't agree with key if what you're saying jay is he's just too valuable risk injury on in every game if you're running back as part of the way but if you're saying he's not healthy that's different but he's been if he's been padded practices for a while then. I'm concerned but if he just started last week. I'm like okay. That seems like there's been some caution rap. J what do you think what do you think padded practices do for you. I'm talking about contact key. Do nothing you're not taking to the. They're not that she you in practice. Third you up. And that's pretty. Wait till you hear what one hall of famer thinks.

"Okay so those three running backs. I think we agree on zee. Mci delvin and zeke. Alvin kamara latavius. Murray has always been that insurance back. And we've seen it for a long time. But this year tony jones kind of popped a little bit in the preseason and i'm curious does one of these two need to be rostered and if there is one of them does which one do you like more than the other two roster behind alvin kamara needs to be rostered. I mean the fact is that chimera missed. Just four games in in his career right so he's very healthy running back having said that. I think it preferred jones to marie at this point like there were rumors that murray might not make this team that he was on the roster bubble and it appears again. You never know with sean payton. Guess we'll sort of see but it feels like jones is ahead of murray. I don't mind picking jones. Because by the way murray has had standalone value. Like i think they're going to be especially with michael thomas out for the first six weeks. I think they're going to be more run heavy. Then people think i know. They named james the starter. It's not tastes them hill so they may throw more but like i still think they're going to be more run heavy than people. Think even with winston honor center. And so i do think jones has some you know some flex appeal in twelve team or deeper leagues. So yeah i mean but do they need to be rostered. Must i probably would say no intend team standard. I think i agree with you. But you're looking at twelve teams. He is absolutely god that you're you're saying i'm keeping my eye on him. And jones is out there in a zillion league yes only drafted into percents league so he is absolutely out there on a watch out there on the waiver wire. What about saquon. Backup devante booker. I mean that's a guy that we've talked about. I mean saquon obviously defined you. We've talked about the injury history. We know that that's going to be something that he's going to have to do with this. We've heard that he's on track to be able to play week. One is ending changed with that. I don't think anything changed. I in fact. I think that has been floated for two weeks now. So i feel like it's the same report every single day. They said wednesday would be a big day. Where on tuesday right now wednesday. Another pat practice joe. Judge saying he wants to reserve the right to see how he comes. Through the week. I thought by the way joe judges comment talking to reporters yesterday very interesting because there was a hint. Somebody didn't sake one's name but they were talking about. If you have a player who's coming off injury. The question was sort of post about a guy who who you might not use at full strength. I don't remember exactly how the question was framed. But judges response was i can only control volume and intensity so he only wants a guy who he feels. Comfortable can play at one hundred percent. He can limit the volume but he's not going to try and have a guy play at less than one hundred percent. I understand that it's actually a very good approach. The challenge will be that. I believe that if they do bring saquon back on sunday which they might That it will be the first test the first dipping of the toe in the pool against real contact and i do think the limit the volume. I understand what you guys are saying. You start him anyway. Few draft him. You could my question back to you would be. Would you start devante booker as well. If you thought for sure saquon was going to be limited this first time no no because sequence going to get some touches you want to answer this when you. You're good all right. we're on the same page. This is like what you basically are going to have it in quantity. You're gonna have committee. You're going to have a committee against a tough bind. What bye-bye is gonna be a tough match-up burn week one. What that may send longer than week one. You just don't know i'm with you. And then they have another game on thursday night. Exactly you sister this question. Because i think here's yeah. Let's say first round pick came around. I was picking up the eighth spot. And i took saquon barkley. Sure understanding everything that's defined. You're talking about and what we're talking about that. There will be a committee because saquon is not fully healthy right. Do i have to roster devante booker. In order to make sure that i at least have something from that back or is it or do you just so i am so people are very different split on this right and as to whether or not you should have insurance and buy insurance. I mean like the backup adding about your to your number one. Pick in essence. We covered the ones that we like. Right there's one. Other one that i think is interesting but like so. I'm a believer in that. Because it's one of those things it's like it's like actual insurance right like you don't like writing a check every month but then you know you. Suddenly somebody plows into your car. And you're like thank god. I have it right to the same thing you hope you know. It's like you hope everyone stays healthy. You hope you never have to use this backup running back. But oh chris. Mccaffrey is gonna miss all these games. I'm glad i have. Mike davis as opposed to having to go to the waiver wire and try to beat out nine other people or blow my budget or whatever it is to try to get that backup running back like i think so..

"Okay the problem with taking a quarterback right off the bat. If you take travis henry okay or where these other dude time running back mccafferty okay. They're gonna get you. They're gonna get you three hundred point those running backs all right if you take mahomes all right. He's going to get you that as well. But you've got sixteen before it comes back to you. Okay and the chances of you having a big time receiver or a good running back. Okay is going to be slim and none all right. You need if you're the door fine. Don't you find that. There are only two or three running backs every year. who really go off. I mean other than that. How many times have you seen running backs. Just flop well. Two years ago mccafferty was my first pick. Okay and that's your dessert okay. He won the championship two years ago. Okay last year. I did what you did. I took homes and i still won the championship. Sal okay but hold on. Hold on john okay. I was drafting into number two slot. Right and i was gonna have nobody basically available to me okay. Moms wouldn't have been there. No good receiver know that running back. So at that point i just i just went ahead and went with it all right dave. That's the heart of my argument. That if i don't take him he won't be there when he gets back. When i when it comes back around to me and i'll get i'll just get a guy you know i'll get i'll just get. I won't get anybody that's gonna completely book. Thank you for the phone call. Bergman is in studio and listening to this bergman. You think i'm being an idiot yes i absolutely do. I was in your league for a little while. So this is why have an idea of why league. I finished in the money every year. Yeah well good for you. But here's the problem you're league has dumb rules. Your rules are gone. They're awful where i think it's fifty yards per for point and it's actually for a point to get into any quarterback in twenty for running and twenty running back. Also you only get four points. Which i think you were talking about before. For every for every touchdown so we get six or they they oh they moved it up because it used to be four but either way. It's then point. Value doesn't work enough in your favor to go after a quarterback. There you need other guys that are going to get you point running back. That's going to get you one hundred yards and a touchdown and same with receivers right. So if the first three picks are christian. Mccaffrey alvin kamara and saquon barkley. Or let's say derrick henry. Let's say derek. The it goes christian mccaffrey. Derrick henry saquon barkley you to use the fourth. Pick on alvin kamara on a saints team. That might stink. When i know mahomes is gonna throw three. I'm with john. it's yes. I do want to go there. What would you do with the fourth pick. I would go with him. I would go with a running back. Or i would go with with stuff wide receiver like if mike. Thomas is coming back healthy. I'd probably go for the first month. So yeah it's finding the right. I don't have the i. I don't have in front of me. Who the best wide receivers. The best running backs are shor yet. Davante adams would be a great one. He's talking about how he's one of the best receivers in the league now. He has rogers with them still. So that's a guy would go. I would go with somebody. That's going to get you points. And weekly one hundred yards and touchdown right but you can find you can find so many other last caller was right. The other last caller was right. You can find other quarterbacks elsewhere. Here's the thing. Our league as you know is so unpredictable that i think it'd be gone by the time i get to the fo. He will be no. You're league. I bet you mahomes goes in the top three to be honest with you. I bet you get stuck with one of these stiffs. You want me to know that you're going to be better off because of it especially in that league want points. Here's jay in torrance. He says people always get this wrong. J what do you think. I honestly think you're being stubborn I mean if you do the math you start to to be running back to and then one the flex right mahomes projected score score one hundred and twenty fantasy points more than aaron rodgers he was accused of. Qb fix so. If you wait on a running back you're losing sixty seventy points on the year from that worming bag position from a projections k. Isn't your argument that there's going to be more than three good running backs. What if it goes through the mass makor you. What if it goes. Mccaffrey henri camara. So i either take saquon barkley coming off of a of a catastrophic injury on a bad giant so you you take galvin cuckoo's projected more. They've saquon and camara. And i got to watch the viking games. Come on man to watch him. But if you wanna i i wanna thank you. Championship with troy. Smith is my quarterback. Had a baller running backs in my flex and the my running back spot and also to greg's point with the right receiver. Have you can i. I mean it depends on how the draft goes. But i'm not taking a stud wide receiver high. I mean in this passing league receiver to have a thousand yards. Eight touchdowns gone shreve played. Believe right so. I think they were. I got i got chubb. Johnson taylor nj dobbins because everyone was reaching from a homes and receiver event. I'm gonna crew all right. Thanks man for the phone call. We'll see how it goes violent for what it's worth. I want to fantasy championships. Streaming quarterbacks one was the air when tom brady got hurt in like we re and the other one i forget who it was because it was so long ago but just just so you know it's possible all right coming up next.

"Ceiling in terms of rushing yards and probably the lowest floor. I guess maybe antonio gibson you can make a case. Because he's so unproven. You can make the same case for naya harris but among the first round running backs. There aren't a lot of guys who could realistically have an under one thousand yard season without an injury. And i could see that happening with aaron jones i could see rushing yards. You mean i married aged one. Taking on a couple. Extra carries aged aaron jones dropping thirteen carries per game and then him going back to twenty nineteen efficiency where he was four point six yards per carry and that would probably be enough to get him under a thousand yards for full rushing yards for a full season. Maybe he has. Last year touchdown efficiency instead of twenty nineteen but they all that i think that's all possible But that's leaving out. The one thing that. I think is likely to be much better for him this year. The receiving that's the best one game. Yeah but he had We had nine rushing touchdowns in fourteen games. That's it feel like you had more than eleven total touchdowns and fourteen. Yeah it was. It was low after nineteen and sixteen games pass three years. The packers have had fifty percent reference. Those twelve running back touchdowns for jason garrett offenses the packers offense as averaged eighteen running back touchdowns over and there's a chance maybe dylan gets half those. That would be a problem for aaron jones. But i think it's just so unlikely that we're going to see those fifty targets or sixty targets on a sixteen game pays go. Aj dylan's way. I don't think he probably gets half that. Which should mean an extra two to three targets per game for aaron jones which should cover up any real risk that he loses in the running game. I guess it's just. It's not inconceivable that aj dylan is just so good like he is derrick henry good and he just demands carries. And you know. Maybe that's possible. I think that's probably the downside. Risk jones is what if and i don't think this is likely. But what if he's not the best running mechanism backfield and he gets into a fifty fifty split. Well that's a good thing about jones. I mean he's not just a product of the officer. He's awesome you know. He's proven that he's a great player. It'd be hard for dylan to unseat him. It's it's hard to make a bus gays against them. Especially if you get them in the second round looking at adp since july thirtieth so not even a week he is. He's eleventh he's ahead of chubb and barclay and davante adams is the first wide receiver off the board so it's been adjusted a little bit. It's that should be the case. Yeah adams is aid than hill than kelsey is ten then aaron jones. He's our be eight still ecuadoran. Jonathan taylor going ahead of him. But taylor that still don't know where his adp is going to settle in. So would you guys take aaron jones. I would go. I would go jones. But i've got. I've had jones the top five running back all summer. So i'm not i'm leaving there obviously okay. I can't wait for this one antonio gibson. I'm just surprised that he's going as early. As top. Sixteen pick fifteenth adp fifteenth and adp. Make a bus case for antonio gibson..

"Kind of a bust right. Yeah i just want to say this since kareem hunt's arrival okay you're and a half ago basically season and half ago. He's averaged nineteen carries per game in wins. This nick job knocking nick. Chubs areas averaged nineteen carries per game and wins and fourteen carries per game in losses so brazil little downside. We all expect the ravens to be or the browns to be really good. But if if they're not you know that's that's something consider okay. He has been a super safe and non pr. But you're not going to get a ton catches so he's such a great player. I talk about that. Class of players is something. I said before the podcast. But derrick henry last isn't had basically the best rushing season a really are the best rushing season running back could have in the fifth most rushing yards ever and he had the fourth most rushing touchdowns in a season over the last ten years. It's hard to realistically have a better season. The derrick henry and he was also number three running back. It was the thirty second best runningback season. Npr points per game over the last decade. That's amazing that is when you're talking about the that is very very very best. Furs of what a niche. Oh a derrick henry. Ajay dobbins a josh. Jacobs can do. I think that highlights what should be the case against them. Which is that you need things to go incredibly incredibly right for them to be truly elite fantasy running backs. And if i'm drafting at one to turn. I'm not satisfied with someone who i think probably has top eight upside. I want someone who could realistically break into that. Top three this strictly for obviously. He's got her sugar or even have pr. It's mostly relevant. But yeah it's it's certainly different. Yeah what we should all play happy. Pr okay davante. Adams is next if you thought tyreek hill was tough first of all. The atoms is probably not going behind tyreek hill anymore. Now that adam. Now that aaron rodgers is back he'd be better if he were adam. Rogers personally i think but this is a tough bus case to make anybody wanna give it a shot with about the ads. He is really really reliant on volume in a way that some of the other elite wide receivers aren't he's usually in the eight yards per target range lassie's at nine point two. So if you return to the eight yards per target range and let's say the packers only throw the ball to him nine times a game instead of eleven. You can probably see a scenario where you know. If there's some bad touchdown regression. Maybe he has eleven hundred yards and seven touchdowns on ninety catches and he's just like a good rb wide receiver to found. I don't know how that would be a star player. Yeah with everything going against roy..

One of our one of the coolest guests in the history of this show happening sixty third birthday to kevin bacon. Wow back here on the rich man Okay so bill. Barnwell is like the jets. Would trade zach wilson for aaron rodgers right now because we just went through conversation senior. Nfl writer about you know which teams would jettison. Their plans. Not quarterback plans for aaron rodgers. Right now because yeah you want to swap out like you know you want to swap out A rookie quarterback for aaron rodgers. Of course you'll do that. Obviously but if you just chosen him second overall and you've made a whole big to do out of it like do you think the forty niners trade trae lance for aaron rodgers right now after everything they trade everything up because you've given up multiple first round picks in the future for aaron rodgers which is what it would take to get them to which is what it would take to get him which is probably what they would have done to get him if he was on the market when they made the trade for trae lance. But that would never happen. The niners would never the packers would never say uncle and trade him to the forty niners but would they just would they because we're just removing the only reality is the plans part not like what it would take to make the whatever jet. I mind trick the obi-wan-kenobi They'd have to pull on brian. Gouda koonce these are the draft picks. You're looking for and he'd say yes to sending him to green to san francisco. Wish it never happened. I don't know if the jets would do it or should do it jet fans. He's he he talked about jets fans who he knows them. I know them. I know one right here. And i know tons of jets fans. Who would absolutely say we've already taken green bay's disgruntled quarterback. Oh come i'm telling you they we talk farve straight from green bay so we're gonna take the current version of the farm. Who's now on the role of five. Take him same number of mvp's same number of champs number years member of years passions. We already did that. How great did that work out. There's now there's extenuating circumstances than not the same human being a little snake and that and that and that farve was nearing the end of a career and did not look like rogers just appeared on. Tv and montana. Right right that you would but far did have a season with minnesota after the jets coughed him up. Damn near one super bowl may almost made it if he didn't throw it across the middle to new orleans. Nfc championship game. There definitely jets fans like we already taken that guy from green bay screw it. Let's go with the kid in joe. Douglas we trust. There's no question in my mind. The question is am i that jet fan and right now. The jets aren't ready to win. In what ever you think. Even if you think they might be with aaron rodgers if rogers playing till he's forty four and doing the brady thing tilles forty four. Then you have to do it beat after doing. That's the question. Is he gonna play like brady to lease forty. Four z. Wanna play tilles forty four. 'cause that mu trading for somebody would six high functioning quality goat years remaining. You're getting six left. But i think you hit on the big question. It's the want as the desire there. Does he want to play that. I i don't know. I'd i'd need to know the answer. That question seems like brady. That's all he wants to do. Is point foot correct. Maybe rogers the same way. It's just a different personality tourism. Where it on his sleeve. Ar twelve system or anything like that. you know. also don't forget brady weiqi said at the in in the match in in one of the best soliloquies that i've heard from him. He's a late bloomer. Aaron rodgers was a late drafty but he could have easily been the first overall pick in the draft. The rogers also junior college. I did go. I know that he was late. Bloomer in that respect yes that's correct in that respect but still in terms of the. Nfl hit oh. We always talk about rogers. You waited forever in that draft room and that that created a fire him and brady's like hold my You know avocado tequila. Rogers also three years to start radiated hutu right away at one. Oh man so. If you didn't that guy yeah you get them but will he turn into breeze which is like hits forty one and he can't on as a problem doesn't look the same anymore. Oh is that the ultimate conundrum again. I think this is gonna come back from the brink and and in rajasa a play for the packers issue somehow anyway and then we'll kick that can down the road for your and or to see how it goes down the eleventh anniversary of the decision. Tj jefferson has some thoughts on that. That'll be fun next. Giants traded right giant straight out. Daniel jones for him. The washington football team will take him inning heartbeat the philadelphia eagles who take him any heartbeat. I think most teams in the week. Probably you know what. Let's literally talk about it. You know the steelers were take him any heartbeat The ravens would not the bengals. Bengals would not. I think they're going to stick with joe borough even with his surgically repaired. Knee there bright. I know barnwell said the bills would have a conversation. I don't think so all now. Nothing's rap guy. He was runner up. Challenge the guy. That's it and the same way that i'm mike. Charges have a conversation about justin. Herbert and get rogers in there. No chance you do that. Trade in a heartbeat. The packers would do that truth in a heartbeat. Packers would say yeah. I phone call. If they're saying we're going to trade aaron rodgers. Would you tom to lesko. Yeah you ought them. Because that's the quarterback we'll take back and then joe jordan level be like thanks for the thanks of the reps. Where does he honestly eagles. No i know that fell.

NFL WEEK 3: Our official predictions for who wins this weekend
"So. I gave talk about. Obviously a game that still sits our my mind from last week. The Atlanta Falcons go our land Alcan's play. The Chicago bears this week. Chicago was to know the Falcons are all into one o'clock on Fox. Obviously, the Falcons. About that the shambles, the the. Disgusting performance that we saw last week losing a game that they should've never lost Dallas cowboys now going to Chicago bears team defensively is still one of the better teams in the NFL. Immature bisky while not playing. Ultra, great. Still playing well enough for them to win. If, you look at this game, you would think the Falcons will win because one of the Falcons do have going for them as they do have one of the better offenses in felt even to the two weeks you've seen that. And they're going to a bears team that. Can Be, offered to challenge America can be limited. So the Falcons you put up points. The game should be over now the falcons defense does have some questions, but I do think they would put voices should be enough to create distance in the bears it'd be able to pick up the whip. Obviously the bears are companies just gave a lot of confidence. As they should. To An older, start the season I mean. I saw some Falcon fans tweet about it. They don't necessarily want the T. Blues remember they're only to the of this dot over by any stretch. But people really what? Dad Queen Gone. And so. It's Cadillac Party. Wants. To lose. The ship but the Chicago bears going to three eight. Oh probably be one of the young shockers of this early season. I'm going to very hastily picked the Falcons to win this game. I think they they are the better team. Now whether they actually leads to the results on Sunday we'll see but I'm going to go the Falcons to win this game as they are the better team to me. I, Think Matt Ryan will continue his great start to the season. I think are often will continue to click. There are questions of Julio. Jones will play this Sunday I. Think he will. He usually plays to injuries when his Julio not move something now he did. Have a setback in practice but. You know I think. He should be able to go. and honestly, if he didn't would be great for my fantasy team either but I got kindergarten if I need to step up or racial gauge. So yeah. But yeah with the Falcons. Next game forty niners, giants, I've this Games interesting. Remember last week. The point is playing metlife stadium loss Garoppolo MOATS are. Bosa, Thomas they lost a lot of guys last week. And the. Giants team who? Looks like they'll probably be at the bottom of the barrel the NFC east. Especially after losing saquon Barkley. For? The. season. When I players were scared to play at metlife stadium because they felt like the the stadium turf in and everything was the reason for a lot of those injuries that they had last week when they played the jets. Now. I it's. It's interesting to see what it's GONNA be 'cause they're playing a backup quarterback backup running backs they got sued offensive Lineman. I still don't have Richard Sherman. You have a lot of injuries. and. So this may be a winnable game for the giants I mean, you don't really know what to expect from the forty niners this week. So it'd be you say here they of Jimmy, Garoppolo at least played to me I. Think you would be like, okay for eight hours I think we'd still be able to win, but we don't know how good the Ford back for Norwich backup QB may play. I mean, luckily, the void ours have a lot of defensive talent still. So it's not like older pleaded they have nobody but. It. Isn't as comfortable as A. But I would still in my right mind, go with the four years to win the game.

New York Giants Confirm Saquon Barkley Tore ACL, Out For The Season
"There are terrible injuries all over the NFL yesterday alone. Nick. Bosa. From the niners Saquon Barkley from the giants both suffered torn ACL statistics show that through two weeks nfl record twice as many significant injuries as last year. It's actually at least six players suffered a torn acl including just recently Seattle Seahawks linebacker Bruce Irvin Eleven, injuries to starters in the one o'clock games alone John Do you think these injuries have something to do with the fact that there were no preseason games. Well. For example, the Rams don't play any of their starters in preseason games I think is in the spirit of your question i. think it has something to do with no camp no real camp they kind of shotgun training camp and I don't know how you could make the opposite argument that it has nothing to do with it. I wouldn't tied to preseason games what I would do it to the fact that there was very little tackling. Yes in. The game started and the other thing is I know Kyle Shanahan the niners felt like the field wasn't ready like the field I think he played in the meadowlands and he's got play there again next week because he played the jets and now he's GonNa, play the giants. Players on both teams going down. So I don't necessarily think that the facilities were one hundred percent prepared either I think again, I think the spirit of your question is the fact that they fast tracked everything and started the season. Because of Covid is that having any do with the injuries I don't know how you could say it doesn't I think it has to yeah. I mean I I completely agree I mean between training camp and preseason games where guys at least get a sense for what they get a reminder of what getting hit is like. I think they're I think they would be better off. It is an extraordinary number of injuries and none worse than Christian McCaffrey who's gone for four to six weeks and his the stalwart of my fantasy team just loyal to John Ireland how about? Yeah. I cleaned your clock thinking Matt Ryan. But. How about how about Saquon out for the year? Yeah. Entirely out for the year Bosa gone for the with a tornado. And that means that the giants I. It might be a race between the giants and the jets who the worst team football is. The whole new. York City area has to just garbage football teams because the jets are a mess and now the giants have no running game. So it's going to have it's going to have after-effects. All these

Dr. David Chao talks injuries
"Dr Child always good to have you aboard for the show. Thanks for having me. So when we look at some of the injuries that kind of flakes of the skill position talents We had a big one again in Tampa and it seems to be history repeating itself last week we talked about Mike Evans. His hamstring hamstring the season ending scenario. That played out there. Lo and behold Chris Godwin goes down with what looked like a similar injury last. We saw him carted off in the tunnel in Detroit. Coincidence there is there something going on in Tampa as it pertains to their wideouts in their hamstrings as we get into the tail end of the season they run them ragged and they throw the ball lot. That's probably the only Only Lincoln Yeah and if you really WANNA go conspiracy theory Mike Evans last week. You Scott Miller Another wide receiver earlier in the game in Chris Godwin in early in the season Perriman had a hamstring issue. So if you really trying to go that way but I think it's just coincidence and maybe some of it is They're still slinging the ball around quite a bit Four hundred fifty yards for James Winston This week so so they were running a lot of routes and so forth as we talked about Mike Evans Hamstring with significant and with only three games left. We thought you and I are candidate. I think the same something's GonNa fall for for Chris Godwin here. You know there's only two weeks left there the bucks out of it The hamstring is probably going to be longer than that and he's probably headed into reserve so What does that mean I mean? Had you know from a fantasy site look for paramount. Because Winston's going to have to you. Who else is left? That's a blow. Be still my heart God. What has been the Horse Dr John? That's gotten me in the fantasy. Football finals beat up on her. Dear friend Clay Travis this past past week and in a massive showdown GonNa help that somebody else on my rosters able to step up and fill that void pain savior jokes. Because I know you're gonNA take cheap shots I'm not at all I'm not at all actually gonNA transition to another wide receiver with Adam Phelan. There was talks that he wasn't going to return until he was one hundred percent. Healthy Limited. Snap count this past against the chargers. What do you think that was maybe score or Israel setback therefore Adam feeling well? I think it's a original part of the plan in preparation. Maybe the seven snaps were only because of because of the score but he was never gonNA play fifty Think about it this way first of all if you look Ah. The history of what happened with Phelan was supposed to be a minor hamstring. You played it. Two weeks aggravated missed. Many more weeks. Try to come back to fast in in Practice aggravated again. So they've been burned twice with aggravation. Do you think they were GonNa be burned a third time when next week. They have the Monday night game against against the packers which is for the division and then even the week seventeen game against the division rival bears. This were the LA chargers not that you look past with them. But I don't care who it was only made medical sense to bring him back a little more slowly this type give them a few game raps so that he can and be good to go for the packers. I think you'll see. EEOC normal reps against the packers next week but there was no way he's going to see normal routes this week and so even when Schefter after said he was going to play and be fine. I never thought he would. But you know we all know coachspeak right. It's just another example of coachspeak another guy that's critical to the Vikings offensive successes. Delvin Cook suffered another shoulder. Injury couldn't return against the chargers. Obviously you mentioned the importance of the Monday night. Game against the packers will Delvin Cook play and if so how effective can you be. Well here's a good news. Bad News Bad news is he got hurt again and you didn't finish the game the bad news. It's actually a new injury and that's also the good news it's a new injury if it were the SC join again the right Septa. You'd have to say. Even when he plays against the packers he's one hit one play from being out against. This seems to be something to his left shoulder by video. I can't tell you exactly what it is. There's which sometimes good news because if he dislocated I could tell you. I don't think that's the case. I can't tell you exactly what he has. But it's new to the left shoulder and I think there is okay. Good chance I would expect that he will play and be good to go against the packers And I think that's part of where they said Look L.. Let us live to fight another day Dalvin and rest the rest of the game here in terms of feeling like they have a game in hand out in Los Angeles makes percents with a capable fill in like Mike. Boone had two touchdowns he actually had the second highest sparks score among running backs in two thousand eighteen draft only behind saquon so hard running running in athletic last Vikings Guy One ask you about. That's crucial to the defense's cornerback. Xavier Rhodes went into the chargers game with an ankle. Injury already played through it left left with what appeared to be a calf injury. Does he have a shot to play against Green Bay it's GonNa be hard Calf injuries linger CT Way Hilton. And uh-huh this even though he was GonNa want to at the quarterback position. It's pretty hard to break in driving the ball. If you don't have your staff there then you add the lingering ankle. I mean when you talk about multiple injuries and one of them being calf especially the positioning place as optimistic as I am on Dow Cook able to go. I'm not pessimistic and league's exist your roads being able to go last one. I want to ask you about beforehand it back to todd. The timeline probably doesn't work if it's a high ankle sprain but The seasons on the Line Right Philadelphia Dallas does lane. Johnson have a chance to play this week. I think he does first of all learning clean. Johnson Yasser Heikal Spring He might get some pre-game quote acupuncture to play area. I mean it's it's that big give a game and the other thing is he. You know Yes he's a tackle so he's a little more in space and I can guard. But but certainly it's easier to for a Lineman Wiedeman an offensive lineman to play through high ankle than some other skill position. So I think he's GonNa try everything you can to go. The question is If he can royal factor if you will be I think you're GONNA try all hands on deck type game coming up Sunday for the division and I know a lot of our board listeners Dr Chow who have been writing this Eagles Eagles train with the division future since the beginning of the season. So we'll all sit with wait and wait with bated breath as they go into that one against maybe resurgent cowboys team is short home underdogs but but before we get there. We do have a Monday night. Football game and clearly. The biggest injury around this contest is with. Ty held a lot of optimism through colts camp but you look through some of the lingering signs for T. Y.. Hilton this calf injury. Do you expect him to be able to give it a go tonight. And if if even tries how effective do you believe. He can be out there as a viable deep throat against the Saints Defense. Well you know. There's there's there's two two thoughts here the he will play thought and he won't play thought if you go by what the head coach says and very fulmer to him. Even Situation Frank Reich is if he plays on Monday. We'll be at one hundred percent. I E not playing short of a hundred percent. Well if that is actually true. He's not playing period. There's no way that cafeteria one hundred percent is lingered this long another couple of days. He's been full practice all all week and other days isn't GonNa Change Anything. There's no way he's hundred hundred percent for tonight's game. So we're going to stick to what Frank Reich really sad. Ty He's already told US T Y Hilton's not playing but we all know coachspeak and we all know this is. The colts is kind of last chance. They kind of have to win to stay in it to have any chance to stay in it so That may push what t y Hilton does and you may try. Try and go always interesting to see these guys and who's able to gut it out. As it becomes a war of attrition at this point in the season especially with playoff berths hanging in the balance team saw hang on for dear life in their respective conferences.

Eli Manning returns as NY Giants' starting quarterback
"If you look last season Eli complete sixty. Three percent of his passes in the two games against Philli. Five hundred seventy passing yards in. It initially looked like he was going to have all his weapons tonight. But Evan Ingram. I guess was scratched Saturday afternoon. Shurmur said he thought he would play on Friday. So that is a big loss expecting Evan Ingram to go but now he's out and he was a went back looked at both meetings last season the first go round the giants outgained Philly by point eight yards per play. The Second Meeting New York goes into Philly puts up over. Four hundred yards of offense outgained the eagles by one point four yards per play. So I can tell you when this game reached ten we did see a by on Eli in the giants it was a value bet Nothing huge coach to quickly go over this. Because I don't know how much time we want to spend. I think if you're looking at the giants it's not a lot paying. The answer is not a lot like as I'm talking hogging motivating the speed at. There's two things that are that are somewhat relevant. Here right in the first is Eli against the Eagles Defensive Line in the pressure that can be created their right. Allies always hated pressure. We kind of made that joke years ago. He looks like a fish out of water. When pressures on and you gotTA drops the game the ground and got him squiggle we've seen him duck out of throws over the years right? A lot of his mistakes. Come when guys are barreling down on this season and it's only two game sample size. But there's a reason he was replaced it's because he has a passer rating of fifteen when he's under pressure and the eagles are top. Ten in pressuring. I'm not sure how Mike remers at right. Tackle is going to be able to handle Brandon Graham the night and if you read. The tea leaves their Brandon Grams Hoping for transactions at seven and a half now there's a couple bonuses and escalators that he would like to achieve so so get thirteen tonight. That's going to be one of the match ups to watch right pressure on. Eli Specifically Brandon. Graham against Mike remers at right tackle. I guess the second question. B Saquon against the Eagles defense. It's probably going to be tough sledding right. The giants online doesn't create a lot of space Four saquon in the ground game. You look. They're twenty six and then justed line yards on the other side. You have an eagles defense. That's eighth and defensive. Rush efficiency seventh in rushing success rate. You would think the goal for Phillies to shutdown saquon Maki lie beat them internally. I can tell you that gym shorts and the Eagles defense or embarrassed last week at Miami. They've said as much the unit thought they were turning a corner. They're becoming the strength of the team. Last week's performance kind of came out of nowhere. I would expect them to rebound a little bit here On that side of the ball

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase responds to support
"Adam Gates in his first season as head head. Coach of the New York jets his record today to end seven nevertheless interesting time for a vote of confidence jet CEO. Christopher Johnston said yesterday Ah Adam gays will return for the two thousand twenty season here is the jets CEO. I want to ensure you there would be no changes changes in coaches Adam. How's the trust of this team as the trust Sam? Joe's trust he has my trust. He's a good man. He's a good coach. There is a lot of work to. There's a great deal of to everyone understands And we're just getting started. I feel really good good Memphis team moving forward anytime you get support from ownership the way that the staff Scott supported. The old has gone way. Obviously we wanted We got a lot of games are jobs improve this team and go out and try to win games every week. And he's with us through every step within our communication with him so he kind of knows what we've been trying to do how we're we're trying to fix things that are that are wrong so no to get his support for him to Kinda see what we're trying to do. It's that's an important step fluish. Well that was Adam Gatien course responding to the SAGA lineup. Was He trying to avoid eye. Contact Tech High. We're out here. Do you find that the timing at all interesting or Steve. Young made the point. Yesterday Robert was a good time to do it. So people stop asking the question. I mean it is a good time. Just say. Hey He's going to be here next year but look he's been there one year having hasn't been a great year for him but you know look overall head coaching record. He's about forty a two percent. When winning percentage he wins about forty two percent of the time? So you know. It doesn't look so great for him moving forward but look he's got the support Ownership they're going to give him one more year and I can guarantee that next year if they're in the same position that they're not going to be so lenient on giving him another year. So Oh you look at what. NFL coaches are nowadays. They have guaranteed contracts. I highly doubt they WanNa give him a nice contract and then just release him halfway through his I well it gets to be an expensive decision. Yeah and that's a really great point because ownership obviously is invested in their pick. They want their pick to look good exam. You know you don't WanNa WanNa give up on what you decided so quickly although that has happened to certain coaches inside right around the league. But you can't forget that even even when Todd Bowles was there that the jets were ten and six in their first season and it was really bad. Blow to this team to the supper loss against the Miami Dolphins and just some of the adversity city that they've gone through since Particularly when there's been a lot of expectations with Sam darnold presidents on that team. Well Yeah. He was brought in large part to work with a young quarterback to develop SAM. Darnold help him take the next step. What's interesting is that they share the same stadium with the giants are struggling as well? Now in this case Pat Shurmur is in his second year as a head coach. But look they're coming off the bye. They've lost six straight. What's the word around his future? Well Adam gays was asked recently just how secure he is in his job in one of the ways in which which he retorted. What's to say I'm built for this? Just projecting confidence which you would expect the head coach to do. But I would be remiss to mention that some of the reporters in New York noted that was kind of the same something that Ben mcadoo said three weeks before the giants got rid of him and and clearly this is not the adversity or excuse me what they were looking to results wise to be having right now coming off of in two years of What they endured under Ben mcadoo but the reality is promising as Daniel Jones has looked particularly when he's throwing the ball With with the return of Saquon this is not what they were looking for. They're still suffering losses even with saquon on the field. I mean he has not had over sixty five rushing yards in the last three times he played. Hey only had two one hundred rushing yard games. That was in the first two weeks Daniel Jones continues to have issues with the interceptions. Fumbles and things of what have you and it has has. It was altered in wins. And you can't neglect the fact that this is in New York and teams with that media pressure there as well. It won't stop. It's hard to perform with a rookie quarterback though in this in this league it's not they had veteran it didn't it didn't work out. He still there by the way. He's still there. But look in this league. It's hard for a young quarterback to come in and be successful and I just think that we're witnessing growing pains of a young quarterback trying to figure his way Out through a hard schedule last year at this time he was done you know now. He's about halfway through so I mean it's it's a lot more difficult. I agree with you. Rob The only issue of course with the New York giants dances. They've had a lot of these same problems whether it was a long-term veteran quarterback or a yet stroup Such a great point. And so then you start to have to ask other kinds of questions

That is a good daddy. They take care of his kids. Well at the risk of upsetting. I'm going to once again point out that the latest of the latest it is example of the negative side effects of lebron's addiction to fame the thirty four year old basketball star claims to have identified football's most unique challenge and further claims to have invented solution class helmets players being assigned a helmet and do not have no voice and no one knows who they are because of the helmet and no one ever truly know on that there's actually a person inside there and not taking that seriously they will be seen by uninterrupted did and this right here is the farce glass helmet and meaning behind it is all these great athletes athletes that play our wonderful sport football will be heard and we'll be saying because they are at the end of the day they are people as well. They take these helmets off and they are people when they have the helmets on as well so when i first saw this. I thought it was a comedy skit. Get thought lebron was having some fun and then i watched a four minute youtube video titled the glass helmet project tackling one of football's most unique challenges. Oh sweet jesus. I think the broader series the bronze side kick maverick carter some nondescript former n._f._l. Player andrew hawkins and an artist artist are pushing the notion that glass helmets or symbolic glass helmets would liberate and humanize oppressed n._f._l. Players i can walk down the street. Be the star football team and nobody knows who i am because people don't recognize you. Ah as players were kind of looked at as warriors or gladiators right and gladiators aren't people who you remember their name take a lot of people when it comes to football they cheer for the laundry in the sense that they refer their teams more than having a direct connection with the players hopefully one day we'll see glass is home is on the

NBA Draft 2019: Latest 1st-Round Order, Predictions
"And ladies and gentlemen, we have a new mock draft out Mel kiper Jr's three point. Oh is here with us. And we are looking forward to the draft. Mel will join us in just about an hour to talk about the new mock draft. But there have been some changes in the draft specifically one less quarterback. Now going in the first round then in mel's two point oh mock draft. So we have four in the two point oh mock draft with Daniel Jones from Duke rounding out of the last pick of the draft to the patriots in the first round of thirty two. There are only three quarterbacks now in the first round, according to mel's latest mock. And obviously a retirement might be a big reason why and the quarterbacks have changed as well. Right. As far as where they're they're going. Well, Cuyler he still has Tyler going number one derozan. Well in his last draft Cuyler going number thirteen to the dolphins. So now and this draft he hasn't going number one. He had. Dwayne Haskins going number six at a giant Kyle Murray. Going number thirteen to the to the dolphins. Drew lock going fifteen to the Redskins and Daniel Jones going thirty two to the patriots. So as you mentioned Daniel Jones now out of the first round, according to the latest mock draft by Mel kiper, just three quarterbacks Murray number one. The main says Dwayne Haskins at number six, and you start to hear reports that the giants may go defense was six and then was seventeen go quarterback. But right now twain Haskins at six and then drew lock sitting there at number thirteen for the dolphins. Does the only three quarterbacks in this latest first round. Yeah. Going to be very interesting because we know what the giants listen one thing. Dave Gettleman has made very clear he does not feel beholden to tell us his plan. And so I don't feel overly beholden to believe. A lot of what we're hearing coming out of the giants can't because if you've got a guy who's basic messages trust me, I got this. Well, then we understand he doesn't feel like he has to tell us the truth. So as we hear these things. Coming out. We also understand this time of year is about deception to an extent it's trying to manipulate the draft order trying to manipulate the opinions of certain players. So that you can try and put yourself in the best position to get the guys you ultimately want. So it makes it difficult to try and read the tea leaves it is although I have to say on cattlemans behalf. He said all of last spring saquon Barkley is a generational talent with the second overall pick. And that's where he went. Look, I think we all agreed. There has to be a quarterback in the giants future. Whether it's at six or seventeen trade now Cleveland, but it would not surprise me in the least if Dave Gettleman waited until the second or third round to take a quarterback this Dave Gettleman, he created that created, but he he made the term a more of a vernacular in the NFL draft hog molly's when he was the GM of the Carolina Panthers. He loves the big guys to hog mollies. And let's be honest. This draft is going to be decided outside of Kyla Murray. More than anything else about the big defensive lineman in this draft. The hog Molly is on the defensive side of the ball. So depending on your draft grades for your quarterbacks you could take one of those at six and then a quarterback at seventeen it all depends again on your on your draft great. If twain Haskins is highest on the board and draft grades. You don't pass that up. If you have a Dwayne Haskins drew lock. And whatever other quarterback equal in grades. You know, maybe use that seventeen pick baby can trade it up somehow to get one of those guys as I said, this always comes down to grades. Do. You have a choice amongst grades. Are you close enough in quarterbacks where if you don't get one you try and get the other? But we'll see we'll see, you know, one of the biggest changes in from the last two this for Mel was they had the patriots taken Daniel Jones a quarterback, and this one I serve Smith junior the tight end from Alabama going, and that would not be shocking at all you have really three out of the top tight end Hopkinson the kid from Iowa teammate, Noah Fant, and then Smith junior all three likely to go in the first round a three first round tight end to on the same team come on. And what would that tell you as we saw? The patriots jump into the first round and take a running back and Sony Michelle at the end of that. And now to see in the next year three tight ends going. We've talked about this. However, you want to split it. Last year were Quinton Nelson. Went in the top ten in the draft as an offensive guard. We saw roquan Smith going the top ten as a middle linebacker. The middle of the field is worthy. NFL is being built right now. And other teams are starting to catch up to what the patriots have done for years. The way that we've seen teams export that specific area and three tight ends in the first round would hammer that home not denying that. They are guys that are certainly probably more talented than usual tight end groups. We're used to seeing but it's also about value. It's why you see running back taking it to overall by the giants last year. I mean, the other thing is I think they're more interior linemen in this first round then quarterbacks right? Like, a not tackles guards and centers. There are more of those according to males latest mock than there are actual quarterbacks being taken which would be very unusual. So the top five in this new draft that Mel kiper put out is Kylie Murray. Number one of the cardinals Nick both the D N number two to the forty Niners. Number three. Josh Allen the outside backing backer pass rusher going to the jet number four Cornyn Williams. To the raiders and number five guy making a pretty big jump. Devon white going to Tampa Bay at five in the last mock draft he was number eleven to the Bengals now in mel's draft. He is sitting at number five number six twain Haskins seven Joon Taylor. The offense attack from Florida going to Jacksonville sweat, the D N going to the lions at eight Sean, Gary the D N going into the bills from Michigan and TJ Hopkinson. The tight end going to the Broncos at number ten. Here's here's what I wanted to talk to Mel about and one of the issues that I have laid on me big fella with with this draft comes, you know, some some point and one of them is there are few prospects in new first round projection who are making their debuts because of their combine performances. There are four guys who have jumped into mel's first round who weren't out there before again based on the combine combine performances. I don't understand that. I don't I don't understand that. If you wanna say. You looked at the combine to go back and look at tape of them. But to say, they're combine performance jumped them up that doesn't compute to me. Well, I think that's I think that's the assumption though, is because of their performance you went back and look and that. That's fair. That's why I want to ask them. How did this? Make you go back and study them more. Because if you're just basing things off the combine I got a real issue with that. Yeah. I I don't think you would do that or teams. But at the same time, you look at the positions of the majority of the players that would be involved in that. And I think this could be true for teams as well. It's interior offense. It is right. Three interior offensive linemen Terry McLaren the wide receiver, but when it comes to interior offensive lineman. You wanna talk about an area where the scouting grossly lags behind to actually great and overall draft. It's a difficult area for a lot of people to see and understand because you don't have the benefit of a lot of stats. You don't have the benefit of even the combine members necessarily always translating to production. So when those guys go and they paying and they flag in the model somewhere for what they do at the combine. And then you go back and spend some more time looking at a guy like Lindstrom who wasn't going to be a big name. He wasn't like, you know, Gary bradberry from North Carolina State won the Remington award this year. Like that guy was a stud Boston College was a middling. Okay. ACC team this year. So Lindstrom wasn't getting the credit. He deserved even being as good as he is. So you go back now, and even these NFL teams, maybe we're late to the party on some of these guys all of a sudden start giving them an extra. That's why I want to ask I just wanna make sure with Mel that because I'm just reading from the combine performance, and again, let's put a name. To those you mentioned McLaren the wide receiver who is one of the others. Chris Lynch reminder, you just mentioned from Boston College now. Number twenty one to Seattle Eric McCoy interior linemen going number twenty two to Baltimore. Right and the Garrett bradberry. The Senator from North Carolina State who is you mentioned one the Remington award is the best center in the country number thirty one to the LA Rams where they have an aging center, and John John Sullivan. And that was that was one of the things have been saying for the Rams the last couple of years that dynasties been built on the interior. If you land a guy like that good, Lord or you winning out it is. So we'll see how that plays out. Now, the one thing that I find interesting he he has drew lock the third quarterback Mel dozen his latest mock going thirteen in Miami. I'm telling you don't take out Denver at ten in Cincinnati of eleven in play for quarterbacks. I mean. Yeah. Denver made the play for Joe flacco. But John Elway has messed this up a couple of times with all due respect. I mean, that's just outside of getting Peyton Manning. He has not figured out the quarterback spot there at ten they might be in play for quarterback. And you have Andy Dalton with his situation with the Bengals and his contract situation. I, you know, I think that there's a really good chance that they could be in play with a quarterback there, by the way, by the way, Mel kiper Jr's mock draft not the biggest item related to the draft this week. That will have news for you guys. What more on that coming up later? This week

I'm doing great excellent. You know, it's funny this week. I heard I don't know if you heard this. But. Greg Williams who to me. Why don't really work in Cleveland locally in the week? And I have no desire for Greg Williams to remain the long-term coach Gregg Williams. I think he's about as old school is old school gets and he referred to some advanced analytics this week. And I almost was brought to tears Sam because well, I think I think that all sports need to have a good balance between old school scouting and new school analytics you'll so many old school football guys are so hesitant look where we are in baseball. Now. Right. The sport is completely run. Everybody has an analytics department in basketball and football is dragging their feet a little bit more in some organizations, but the here an old school coach like Greg Williams referred to some advanced analytics. That was that was wild for me to hear it must have. I don't know if you heard it. But it probably would've made you happy. If you did. Yeah. I think you're right football is behind baseball. And how that kind of stuff is gone, but everybody understands that it can help you how you present it to all of these people know, so head coaches are often the last guy to get on board. But it's because you need to present it to them in in the right away. Now, there's a ton of ways that say the PS database can help is those guys. But if you come to them initially where you know, something they don't wanna hear they're not going to buy. But if you immediately show them something, you know, a fancy pretty grasp the chosen exactly what they've been saying for years, suddenly they're all on board. So I think a lot of teams the league you're just starting to sort of see this time where the analytics guys or people that have been using the stuff within the Bill. Building for years are finally starting to figure out how to present it to coaches added presented to general manager is and you know, the guys bad again in front of the media. And that's when you're starting to see this filter out. I think it's been used a lot within the building for years already. But now we're starting to see those guys use it on a daily basis and get the headline stuff sent to them in a way that they're they're much more comfortable with gesturing at an and actually taking it on board. We're talking with Sam Monson pro football focus lead analysts Sam. Baker Mayfield has had a tremendous season. As a rookie as put up some big old school numbers if you will. But when when you went from a pro football, focus perspective when you guys run the numbers on what he's done. How would how does he great out compared to some other rookie quarterback's of the past? Yeah. I think you do need to go to quarterbacks with a pass because he hadn't shoulders above any other rookie season right now. He's a top ten grade quarterback in the NFL. He's tense overall. Just one physician behind Russell Wilson. So you're already talking about it really really well graded player right off the five. And obviously pro football focus was very high invade your Mayfield coming out were the guy is the winter by for him saying that he was the best prospect in this draft in it really wasn't close to the next guy. I think so far. That's that is being born out. We have seen better performances in the past rookies. I think that twenty twelve season was a pretty incredible year for rookie performances. Obviously it didn't last because RG three in particular had a phenomenal season that year, and then tours and really hasn't been the same player since. But you know, Baker Mayfield is looking as good as we've seen any rookie quarterback. Look probably dating by twenty twelve season. We're seeing some really impressive play from him. And I think his play generally has been better than even the statistics suggest because you had one of the highest rates in the NFL right five and drop rates. And unlike most of the times when a receiver drops the ball, it's an incomplete passes. It's not doing that much damage to your passer rating, or whatever but Baker mayfield's have multiple assets that have been hit his receivers and my hands and ended up as interceptions. So those are taking a sledgehammer to operating over the course of the season. It's ninety three. Point four right now. And this is a season where passing is exploded operating ninety three point four is nice great at the moment. But it's his performance has been way better than that. We're talking with Sam Monson lead analyst pro football, focus Sam, let's talk about another rookie and that saquon Barkley who probably be battling Baker Mayfield for rookie of the year. From an offensive standpoint. There's been other good rookie running back but saquon Barkley make over two thousand total yards this season. How does he compare to Todd Gurley Leonard four nets and some of the other big rookie seasons from running backs? Yeah. I mean saquon Barkley just moved into first edition CFS running back rankings. He's the the number one guy right now through the through part of the season. He's been incredible. He's been everything that everybody who was championing him saying he would be coming out. I think he's been better than we thought. He might be there. The idea that he was a perfect running back prospect that don't think really holds up work holes in his game in particular. This tendency to to be a bit. Reggie Bush in terms of wanting to balance everything outside to look for that clay, but he's gotten a lot better in his first year at not doing that at taking ugly yards when they're there. And that's all there to be had. And it's still maximizing goes explosive plays getting huge games. Those are there. So he has been fantastic. I think again he's been as good as any rookie running back the receipt for a number of years. Really? He's I guess he's played as well. As Alvin Kamara did last year as a rookie on he's done more fulltime base. So he already has you know, two hundred more snaps than Kamara managed all last season playing that same kind of rate is Amari Cooper. Has memorial Cooper's play been much better. Or is just a the players around him made him much better. I think it's a bit of both, you know, playing wide receiver it so difficult to play. Well, if the ball isn't coming in your direction off the ball is coming in your direction in attachable manner. Having you can do about it. There's only so much fancy route running against air. You can do if the ball isn't coming your way. So I think we're seeing Amari Cooper was always a quality route runaround player that would get consistently open. And now we're seeing what happens when you target that guy. He's still a very good player and I play put up big numbers. And obviously, that's that's meaning that his greatest better because he's being given the ball and that talent is being maximized. So you know, I think that that was always there that that talent that play was always inherited his game. Even in Oakland. The raiders just weren't making use of it. We're talking with Sam Monson pro football focus lead analyst. Sam. I know you guys today had an article about projecting Cuyler Murray's pro potential. I'm curious because obviously he's a top ten pick and major league baseball. He's giving compared to Ricky Henderson. He signed a four and a half million dollar bonus. There would have to give it back obviously at a even a better year than Baker Mayfield did this past year in college, which is hard to believe. But obviously, you know, people make a thing about the thing about Baker mayfield's hike, which I thought was over rated. But obviously calamari isn't even close those big as as Baker Mayfield. A what is his potential d do you think he could be a good NFL quarterback? I think he could be, you know, you're right people that the highest the big question Mark because people did make an issue out of Baker Mayfield. Tighter on Baker Mayfield is short for an NFL quarterback. But not, you know, it's not unprecedented. We've seen quarterbacks Baker Mayfield type successful in the past. They're not obviously, not as many as there are as you know, six with three quarterbacks, but those guys have existed and they've been good in the past. I don't I don't know that we've ever seen quarterback that is Kyla Murray's Hite house significant success at the end up, right? You know, he is going to be when we get the official number on him. If it ever gets that far he's going to be significantly shorter than even a guy like Russell Wilson. And you would be in legitimately uncharted territory. When it comes to that. Now, if you're going to do that, you have to be there has to be something else to say, well, okay. That's not going to be a problem because of this and his grading has been incredible. His is great this season at Oklahoma has been basically everything is as as good. As Baker mayfield's grade had been on that was the best we've ever seen from a quarterback, right? The best seasons we've ever seen at college with one of his own. So he has a level of the best play. We've ever seen coming out of college from a college quarterback. And we've been doing this going back to two thousand fourteen but we've seen some pretty good quarterbacks over that's fine. You know, we went back, and we also graded James Winstons freshman seasons. We have got Carson Wentz you got Jared Goff. We've got right. And they got all these guys and Carl Amari stacks up to those guys. Sorry.
