Speaker 2 (00:32):
Let's get this, punies, you're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 3 (00:39):
Popp it, come on, Coot, pop it, pop it Yeah,
Poppy if you will bad bad Coop Nick to pop
that earsh make that pop yeah?

Speaker 1 (00:50):
And then but that Jonas, that's that's impressive humor. That
works for you, going money.

Speaker 4 (01:04):
Hey, listen, I gotta tell you, of all the songs
Brady's ever picked, this is easily the best one.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
This is clearly the best one.

Speaker 5 (01:12):
But I'm calling my shot right now. But I will
have a new song on Monday, and it's gonna turn
up this show. That's all I'm gonna say. I'm not
the type. I'm not the type to oversell you, but
I don't know why I didn't think of the song sooner,
but I was working out yesterday and I was like,

(01:33):
oh yeah, oh yeah, this is the next one. Oh yeah.
I'm just telling you right now. Once you hear it,
it's gonna take you all back. I mean, I don't
know about Jonas LeVar. For sure, I could tell you
his mind's gonna go back to the like one of
the great experiences had why he heard this song and
he's gonna be like, oh no, and we're gonna lose him,

(01:53):
Like we're not gonna get LeVar back for another segment
just because of this song.

Speaker 6 (01:57):
I promise you that.

Speaker 5 (02:00):
That's my guarantee you will lose LeVar because he's gonna
get lost and one amazing time that he had while
listening to the song.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
Putting a lot of pressure. That's a lot of emphasis. Pressure.

Speaker 6 (02:12):
Tell me Monday, which by the way, will be Saint
Patrick's Day.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
So excited for that. Nice, But you tell me Monday
when you hear I have to take say Patty's Monday off?
Why because I might have a Saint Patty's Saturday and Sunday. Damn.

Speaker 6 (02:26):
Yeah, A lot of people do celebrate before when it's
on a weekday.

Speaker 5 (02:29):
Yeah, there's certain holidays that we should probably just all take,
make a like a national federal holiday and give people
the time off just for safety, like the Super Bowl. Again,
some people get after it. They really need to just
give people that Monday off to recover. Same thing could
be said for Saint Patrick's Day when it's on a weekday,

(02:49):
Like I don't know if it's on a Monday, give
him Tuesday off or give him Monday off, but just
give people a chance to recover.

Speaker 4 (02:55):
Okay, those years where Saint Patty's Day falls on the
opening day of the tournament, on the third, it's just
a you are a b uscleel.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
You are buckled from nine to nine. It is over.
So yeah, we will. Who knows what kind of shape
we're going to be in.

Speaker 5 (03:11):
Is that like the one time you got so drunk
when you were with me, you went a little bit
cross eyed.

Speaker 4 (03:14):
Oh god, you know, I think you're misremembering how that
night actually went.

Speaker 6 (03:19):
No, I'm not. I mean I just remember like you
look at me and like, man, your eyes doing some weird. Buddy.

Speaker 4 (03:24):
There's only one time where I've been throttled around you,
and that was the golf tournament.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
That was one of them.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (03:32):
Actually, to be honest with I think I was drunk
twice because I think we were on the course and
then we had boneless wings afterwards, and then we went
out after.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
That time game and it was just, yeah, it was over.

Speaker 5 (03:41):
There was one time we did a show and after
the show we went and grabbed a bite at a
bar and we sat there for a while. We had
great service. You weren't as high on the service, but
it was a great service. Then I think by now
you've come around on how good the service was.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
But yeah, I mean, you know it'll work.

Speaker 6 (03:58):
But I would I went to get my uber.

Speaker 5 (04:01):
I looked back because I was like a little bit
concerned because you seem like you were pretty hammered, and
then you made this like cross eyed look at me.

Speaker 6 (04:06):
I was like, Ice, he's pretty jacked by the way.

Speaker 4 (04:08):
You know what year that was and what year was
the fact that I remember this is twenty nineteen, complete loser. Yeah,
because that was the final game of the NFL regular season.
I believe the Browns had just fired Freddy Kitchens and
the Sunday night game was Seahawks Niners, and the Niners
won in Seattle, I believe, which I think like clinched

(04:29):
the one seed for them, and had they not won,
they would have been like the five or the six
or something crazy like that. But yeah, that was that
was a fun night. Yeah, it was a good time.

Speaker 6 (04:38):
This was in nineteen or eighteen.

Speaker 1 (04:39):
Are we doing it this year? What's Saint Patti's Day? No?
Are we? Are we going to accues of it this year?
When is it July? Like getting an invite in July?

Speaker 6 (04:49):
Yeah, I'll give you the exact eight.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
I'll never get an invite. I know it's an.

Speaker 6 (04:54):
Open invite, but I will definitely send you an invite.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
So yeah, I just want an official invite. Yeah, I
want to come those peopauts. Oh jeez, I want to
go to the event that I want to go to
the event.

Speaker 6 (05:11):
Have this? That was all right?

Speaker 1 (05:13):
That was so random? Danny Dimes Rich Yeah, okay, Yeah,
here we go.

Speaker 4 (05:19):
And we'll probably be driving there on some tire Rack tires,
so I've had to do that. They're doing this show
live from the tire rack dot Com studios tire rack
dot Com.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
We'll help you get there.

Speaker 4 (05:28):
An unmatched election, fast free shipping, free road has a
protection and over ten thousand recommended installers, tire rack dot
com the way tire buying should be. All right, So
explain to me this Monty Carlo that the culture driving Brady, Like,
explain to me what this money with the car?

Speaker 5 (05:48):
So, you know how a lot of these gambling websites,
they'll they'll have some sort of model, and what I
mean is like a projection, and you can pay however
much for a service and you can actually, you know,
be able to get whatever the computer models spit out.
And a Monte Carlos scenario in this case is they
take the simulation to do it ten thousand times, and

(06:10):
so ten thousand times is enough to make you feel
pretty positive about you know what the outcome is more
than likely to be.

Speaker 6 (06:17):
And so in this case they did it with the Colts.

Speaker 5 (06:20):
I don't know why they did with the Colts, but
probably because there's a thought that, all right, you're signing
Daniel Jones to a one year deal for fourteen million,
And as we discussed earlier this week, is that a
sign of oh, they're all in on this guy. I mean,
you took Anthony Richardson in the first round the top
but ten, right, top twenty, whatever it was, and you've
paid him close to twenty five million over the course

(06:42):
of the time he's been there, and you're still trying
to figure out what he's capable of, even on an
only fifteen game sample size for his starts. But this
whole Monte Carlo simulation spit out that the Indianapolis Colts
will actually be better off with Daniel Jones than Anthony
Richardson a quarterback, at least in regards to their their.

Speaker 6 (07:05):
Win percentage or total of wins.

Speaker 5 (07:07):
I think with Daniel Jones is a little under eight,
is like seven point nine, and with Anthony Richardson was
like six point five. And you know, you got to
wonder when you see an article like this or report.
All these teams have like very big data and analytics departments,
and when they're analyzing some of the stuff, I'm sure
there's a fact.

Speaker 6 (07:27):
I mean, if we've got an ownership group.

Speaker 5 (07:29):
That's looking at Madden ratings for players, I'm sure we're
looking at a little bit of everything. And there's probably
some people in that front office who looked at that
sort of scenario and said, yeah, actually, Daniel Jones style of.

Speaker 6 (07:39):
Play with nettis more wins.

Speaker 5 (07:41):
And if you're in a scenario like Chris Ballard, like
Shane Stike and who feel like they might have to
win next year in order to keep their jobs. You
might want to go with the veteran guy who, yes,
he's gotten a greater sample size, and I think you
have a better idea of what he is, but you
also can deal with that and maybe that helps you
get more wins as a opposed to Anthony Richardson, who

(08:02):
you've got fifteen starts. In those fifteen starts, you see
some highlights, you've seen some low lights, You've seen everything
in between. But when it comes down to you know
what he is as a quarterback. Yet it's still kind
of a big question mark and maybe some people would
say it's not moving in the right direction. So I personally,
I'm not a fan of what this model spit out

(08:24):
because I still am a believer that Anthony Richardson, if
they coach him up, if they get him doing all
the right things, can be a hell of a player
in this league. And I think you have to when
you made the draft pick, give him that opportunity. I
just don't know how long that opportunity is going to
be this season for the Colts, depending on you know
that win loss record.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
I think it's a I think it's a I mean
a dangerous move. I think it's dangerous in the sense
that if you're really bringing Daniel Jones in because you're
investing in him to be your starter, and you are
indeed conceding that you're not confident in moving forward with

(09:06):
your high draft pick and Anthony Richardson, I think that
that if that's the mood that this team is taking,
if that's the stance they're taking, I wonder how pronounced
that will be to Anthony Richardson and how much of
a part that will play in his mental emotional going
into that building and preparing for the season. And if

(09:27):
you're going to do that, if you're going to approach
it from the standpoint that you feel like Daniel Jones
is the better option for your team at this point
in time, to me, what makes it dangerous is did
you not pay attention to how it played out in
New York for him? Like I don't think he was
a horrible quarterback in New York and probably was in

(09:52):
some cases was blamed for a lot of things that
maybe didn't really fall shouldn't have fell on him to
be blamed for But no the less, it did happen,
and it didn't end well for for Daniel Jones.

Speaker 6 (10:05):
In New York.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
So if you're putting your your cards and your chips
in the middle of the table, betting on Daniel Jones
to come in and be the guy that writes your ship,
I think that's a dangerous proposition if it's me I
had at least unless I saw it, because I'm not
close to the situation. Unless I saw something so bad,

(10:27):
so terrible and Anthony Richardson that made me just totally
lose all faith, all hope that this guy can be
our franchise quarterback and lead us to playoffs and possibly
to Super Bowls, then I'm moving on. But if I'm
doing that based off of those circumstances, make no mistake
about it. I'm not making that decision by bringing in

(10:48):
Daniel Jones. I mean, that's just me. I'm not that's
not That's not the direction I would take this in. Say, Yep,
we're done with with Richardson, this doesn't work for us,
Let's go with Danny Dimes Like, I don't feel like
that's the the end result. That's the conclusion you should
get when it comes out of what you're you know,
you're simulating to figure out who your next quarterback is.

Speaker 4 (11:09):
Would it changed your mind if you couldn't depend on
him From a health standpoint, he also took a knee
and opted out of a game, and you know, we're
a couple of years into this whole thing, like those
feel like, all right, we've got to start looking elsewhere.

Speaker 1 (11:25):
We might have you know, we might have missed on this,
And yeah, I think it was.

Speaker 4 (11:29):
James Boyd of The Athletic had a report that he
said they're thinking or their perfect world or perfect scenario
would be that Daniel Jones comes in, he shows Anthony Richardson,
you know, professionalism, how to prepare, dedication, et cetera, et cetera,
behind the scenes helps him out in that regard, and

(11:50):
then Anthony Richardson's the guy moving forward. So we yeah,
that's a great thought and all, but it still goes
back to the other issue, which is from a health standpoint,
like he's missed a lot of games through a couple
of years, and it does feel like the only reason
they're making this move was the same reason they benched
him last year for Joe Flacco, because you couldn't depend

(12:11):
on the guy when he opted out of a game.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
He's got so much talent, but they took him four overall.

Speaker 4 (12:17):
And it's like, I just wonder if stich In, if
Chris Ballard are sitting here going, hey, man, like this
is everything for us this year. If we don't perform
well and make the playoffs, we're probably both out of
a job.

Speaker 1 (12:30):
Like, and you're putting that on Daniel Jones to be
your your your game changer, your your savior of your
job and the season ahead. I mean, how y'all feel
about it?

Speaker 6 (12:42):
Do worse? I already said how I feel about it?

Speaker 5 (12:44):
Like, if you're going to go down, you'd rather go
down with the guy that I feel like gives you
the highest up side and a chance.

Speaker 1 (12:52):
I mean, I mean I get that, but do you
feel like that he gives you that? Do you feel
like that if that were you? Do you feel like
Daniel Jones gives you that that opportunity?

Speaker 6 (13:01):
Here's no, because no, no, no, That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (13:04):
Like I kind of went slid more toward you got
to find out why you have an Anthony Richardson.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
But I still a believer in Anthony Richardson.

Speaker 5 (13:09):
And here's the thing that bothers me the most about
this entire conversation is the guy started one year at
Florida one year, and in that one year.

Speaker 6 (13:17):
He was incredibly wrong.

Speaker 5 (13:18):
It was the exact same things that we're talking about
now that you solve then. But there were some throws,
there were some plays you would say like, man, if
you can just develop him, hone in on that. And
so I think the hard part is you're entering into
year three. It's a pivotal year. It's got to be
his year though, to see what he is capable of becoming.

(13:39):
And I truly am a believer in Shane Steiken. I
think he's a great offensive mind. I don't think if
things don't go well it should be on him. Chris
Ballard made the decision to draft Anthony Richardson. Chris Ballard's
been there, and since he's been there, I don't think
they've won the division.

Speaker 6 (13:55):
And they've they've tried multiple times.

Speaker 5 (13:57):
It's not for lack of effort to make the quarterback
situation work, but it just hasn't. So whether you want
to put that whoever you want to put that on that,
that's fine, but you know, Ballard ultimately is the one
who's making those decisions.

Speaker 6 (14:09):
You know.

Speaker 5 (14:10):
The hard part about the development of Anthony Richardson is
like he has to want to be developed, you know,
Jonas you just laid out the case of like what
this whole scenario is with Daniel Jones, y already had that,
like you literally just you had that.

Speaker 6 (14:25):
So it's hard when you look at that.

Speaker 5 (14:26):
And by the way, you had that his first year
because Minshew came in and allowed them to be competitive
until the final game of the season as a backup,
and Flacco kind of had them rolling until about you know,
the last you know, two games of the season as
a backup. So like the problem is at some point
and maybe they're to this point now with what happened
last year, that he has to want it. It's not

(14:49):
like he doesn't have the resources. It's not like he
doesn't have the infrastructure built around him. He does, Like
Anthony Richdon has to make the decision to say, I'm
going to change however I'm conducting myself, whatever my practice
habits are, whatever I'm doing that's caused me to get
benched and cause me not to become the player I
can be because I truly believe if you were able

(15:10):
to take his high level plays and you could somehow,
you know, replicate those more and bring up his floor
and allow him to play at the level.

Speaker 6 (15:19):
That you can.

Speaker 5 (15:19):
You see at times he will. He could crush the league.
He is that physically dominant as a runner, his arm strength,
the throws he can make. It is crazy to me,
but he's gotta won it. And that's where I think
the Colts are at right now. And I think again,
when job security starts come on line. To answer your question, LeVar, Yeah,

(15:41):
like guys are gonna say, well, we're gonna put it
in Daniel Jones hands, because with Daniel Jones you have
a better idea of what you're getting.

Speaker 6 (15:47):
And the one thing about the NFL is they want
to know who you.

Speaker 5 (15:51):
Are day in and day out, because the coaches feel
like if they know who you are as a player,
then they can work around your weaknesses. They can put
a game plan together to play to your strengths and
avoid some.

Speaker 6 (16:03):
Of those weaknesses.

Speaker 5 (16:03):
That's what good coaches can do. I do think Shane
Steichen and his staff can do that.

Speaker 6 (16:08):
So we'll see.

Speaker 5 (16:09):
But I don't know, man, I just I hope for
the young man's sake that that that switch flips, because
I think if it does, people are gonna be really surprised,
or maybe they won't be. You know, maybe they see
it too, but I think they'll be really impressed with
what they see from them.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
I just wonder, why wouldn't you try to figure out
something with Anthony Richardson. Isn't there some value there? He's
on a rookie contract. If you don't feel as though
you got what you wanted out of it, or something
concerns you to the point of where you would bring
in a guy like Daniel Jones, where you're saying it's

(16:44):
a great point. You know that this could be our
guy of the future. Why wouldn't you try to figure
out how to get value out of Anthony Richardson right now? Wow,
hold on to me.

Speaker 6 (16:54):
My guess is that they still feel like there's a
lot there for him.

Speaker 1 (16:56):
You know, I just feel like you're doing and listen,
these are grown men. You're an adult, and you're a professional,
so you have to deal with the competition. Everybody is
always fighting to keep their job every single year. I
don't care how big your name is, but I just
think that when you take into consideration what Daniel Jones

(17:19):
represents could not be like super damaging to Anthony Richardson. Like,
I just feel like that's damaging. You're bringing in a
situation where it could be confusing, it could be you know,
it could deteriorate relationships, it could split the locker room.
There's a lot of different things that it could do

(17:40):
when you make these types of decisions that you may
look at and say down the line, that probably didn't
put Anthony Richardson in the most healthiest of conditions to
be able to develop into the player that you wanted
him to develop into. So if you're going to create
those those conditions for your starting top draft pick, why

(18:00):
are you keeping him? Why are you keeping him? I mean,
I know people will say, hey, stop, you got to compete,
Like compete if you if you can't do it, then
you shouldn't be in it. And you're probably right, you
would be right in that estimation. I just think to myself,
why would you put why would you put your top
draft pick in a position where you you're you're putting

(18:21):
more doubt in him than you are belief if you
ask me, Unless there's a different conversation taking place behind
the scenes that I'm unaware of.

Speaker 6 (18:30):
I think.

Speaker 5 (18:30):
I think the other end of the conversation though, in
regards to him, is you you have to have a
backup there too, though, because he also has gotten injured.
I mean, forget about the play that you know, he
took himself out on. I think he's probably.

Speaker 6 (18:42):
Grown from that moment, but he's been He dealt.

Speaker 5 (18:44):
With back injury or back issues for a long time,
which I've kind of popped up. He obviously got hurt
his rookie season, so he've got one or two starts,
maybe three starts at most. So there's all those things
that pop up where if you are in a make
or break year, you do you have to have a
veteran guy that you can rely on, because there's a
good chance, with how physically he is as a runner,

(19:05):
that he could get hurt.

Speaker 6 (19:06):
Something could happen. So that's the other end of that conversation.

Speaker 4 (19:10):
It's two pros and a cup of Joe here on
Fox Sports Radio, LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with
you coming up next here from the Tirack dot Com Studios.
Apparently we've got a brand new beef that is building
up in the National Football League.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
We'll get into the details on that for you here
on FSR.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and
a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Errington, and
Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern, three am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 4 (19:40):
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe, Fox Sports Radio,
LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with you here. Coming
up a little over fifteen minutes from now here from
the tiraq dot com studios. We are going to continue
to take a look around a busy offseason.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
In the NFL.

Speaker 4 (19:56):
That'll be yours here again little for fifteen minutes from
now from the tireraq dot com studio. So apparently there's
a little bit of a beef going on in the
NFL that I was not aware of.

Speaker 1 (20:13):
I was not aware that this was actually a thing.

Speaker 4 (20:16):
But DeMarcus Lawrence, who just signed a deal with the
Dallas Cowboys, or excuse me from the Dallas Cowboys, with
the Seattle Seahawks. He was talking upon his arrival in
Seattle about his feelings about the city of Dallas and
the Cowboys, and he had this to say.

Speaker 7 (20:35):
You know, Dallas is my home. I made my home there.
You know, my family lives there. You know I'm forever
going to be there. But you know, I know for
sure I'm not going to win a super Bowl there.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
So yeah.

Speaker 4 (20:49):
So Micah Parsons caught wind to the video quote, retweeted
it on x and said this what rejection and envy
looked like? This clown ass with a clown emoji, to
which DeMarcus Lawrence responded, calling me a clown won't change
the fact that I told the truth. Maybe if you

(21:09):
spent less time tweeting and more time winning, I wouldn't
have left. So we've got one former cowboy and a
current cowboy going at it, and I gotta be honest
with you. I mean, DeMarcus Lawrence is probably right he
wasn't gonna win a super Bowl in Dallas.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
But MICHAEH.

Speaker 4 (21:28):
Parsons is not fond of the commentary there, So go ahead, que,
I mean, LeVar, I'll take it after Q.

Speaker 6 (21:37):
I'd love you set me up like Debbie.

Speaker 5 (21:41):
Here's the one thing I'd say, all right, it's I'm
not just really sure where the beef comes from what's
going on here, all right, DeMarcus Lawrence, he's not an
interesting past. I would focus more on him and what's
happened in his career. Do you recall like he had
back to back double digit SAX seasons for Dallas. He
was on the trajectory that you're looking for with the

(22:03):
player of his caliber. Remember you got franchise tagged, played
great that year and kind of hit at the right
spots'd anou one hundred and five million dollar contract. Since
that time, he's really struggled, I mean with sack, production, injuries,
all of it. In fact, like I think he subsequently
took a pay cut like year after year there in Dallas.

(22:25):
Now I think he's making a little more in Seattle
than what he was, you know, making in Dallas before.
But it's odd because I would have thought when Micah
got there and you had DeMarcus Lawrence, like this was
gonna be a tandem that plays together forever, and we
were gonna start talking about that tandem as you know,
those edge rushers that helped finish a game for the

(22:47):
Cowboys if.

Speaker 6 (22:47):
They were ever gonna win a Super Bowl.

Speaker 5 (22:49):
And it's unfortunately been anything but that, and it's not
because of Micah. It's more been because of DeMarcus Lawrence.
So I was more curious about the signing in general.

Speaker 6 (22:58):
For Seattle.

Speaker 5 (23:00):
It feels like one of those signings that you know,
what do you like? What kind of player do.

Speaker 6 (23:04):
You think you're getting?

Speaker 5 (23:06):
I mean, in all seriousness, if you go back and
look through kind of you know his stats and how
he's played and everything, it's like, is that the move
that you're you're kind of trying to make at this point?
If you're Seattle in a year that you know you're
bringing Sam Darnold, you're putting a lot of eggs in
that basket. Defensively, that's Mike McDonald's calling card. I don't
know how really good they were last year. Maybe he

(23:27):
feels like they're a better scheme fit for him. But
that was more of the angle I kind of had
on this was it's, look, you know.

Speaker 6 (23:33):
Player Beef's player beef. That's between whatever those two had
going on.

Speaker 5 (23:37):
But I would say this like going to Dallas if
you were a Micah Parsons and then getting there and
seeing what DeMarcus Lawrence was before and then what he's
been of late, it probably was disappointing. You know for
a lot of people, there are a lot of Dallas
Cowboys fans. After signed one hundred million dollar deal. There's
a couple of things I started thinking. First thing I

(23:59):
thought was Boise State took an l to the Niitney
lines in the Fiesta Bowl. That that could be where
some of this kind of you know, originated from.

Speaker 1 (24:13):
Is that. You know, you're looking at Micah and you're
like or you're looking at the situation and you're like,
you know, well, the Nitney lines were better than the
Boise State what are they Mustangs? What are what are
the what's their broncos? Okay, yeah, all right, Maybe maybe
he felt a certain type of way about that starting there.

(24:34):
You know, maybe the beef maybe resonated from maybe a
little trash talk about the college playoff. Obviously Lawrence being
from Boise State and Micah being from Penn State. You
know who knows which. By the way, Micah was was
he at the get No, that was an Orange Bowl anyway.
Then I started thinking also an extension of of that

(24:57):
would be I started thinking about all of the conversations
about the relationships being reported that Micah has strength relationships
in the building and those mounting strains on relationships could
play a part in how Jerry Jones and his son

(25:18):
Stephen looked at re signing him back to this team. Well, clearly,
now you have another one to add to the list
of people that maybe we spec you could speculate didn't
didn't have a great relationship with Micah. I think you
can confirm now that there's safe to say there's a
disconnect between him and the Marcus Lawrence to say say

(25:42):
what Micah said with the jealousy and envy part, there's
something happened. There was an interaction there. It was made evident,
at least in Micah's you know, estimation, that the Mark
is jealous of him, that he's envious of him, and

(26:04):
now he had the opportunity to say it. DeMarcus Lawrence
responding the way that he did, in a lot of
ways confirms if you're thinking Mica thought a certain way
about how DeMarcus Lawrence felt about him, he confirmed it
in his response. I didn't think it was the best
of comebacks for DeMarcus Lawrence because we all know that

(26:28):
DeMarcus Lawrence was on that team that didn't win more
and he only played seven games and didn't contribute any sacks,
any force fumbles, any anything really of significance. Excuse me,
excuse me, excuse me. He did have sax he had
seven sacks or three three three sacks, my bad, one

(26:49):
force fumble. It just wasn't very significant contribution to this
team this year. So I think when you look at
at it, when you look at it from a critical perspective,
clearly coming back with with the response is saying we
would have won more if you wasn't tweeting. More like

(27:11):
as your focus on the fact that this man has
taken over for Bleacher Report and has a significant, you know,
role in what it is that they they rolled out
with this new platform that they launched, does that hit
you the wrong way? And if so, why why can't
you guys work together figure it out and be the

(27:32):
better for it? Why does it have to be you know,
drama between the two of you. And I mean, he
felt comfortable and Micah felt comfortable enough to call him
a clown on Twitter, which I thought was in a
lot of ways he could have been. He could have
been bigger and better for it. I think he was
offended or hurt by the fact that he said what

(27:53):
he said, But you can't have beef with Micah Parsons
on on a response when you're statements are basically taking
a shot at the Cowboys and their personnel. And that's
why I left. They're not going to win. You guys
are losers. Basically, you're not going to win. So I'm leaving,
getting the hell out of here.

Speaker 4 (28:12):
I mean, I'm team DeMarcus in this all the way
I think. Uh, I think he represented himself nicely, he
got paid, uh, And I think everything he said.

Speaker 1 (28:21):
I think you're being an instigator, but I don't. You
can't instigate me on it because I don't care. That's there,
that's their that's their situation. I mean, do you buy
do you buy into what DeMarcus Lawrence said? Like to me,
if you buy into what DeMarcus Lawrence said, then it's
it's it's all but fair for for Michael Parsons to

(28:42):
respond the way that he did. That is some clown
s to sit there and jump out there and say,
on your way out, I knew I had to leave
here because we ain't winning no Super bowls all life.
What about all the.

Speaker 5 (28:53):
Guys well the Seattle I mean like like let's be
honest with ourselves, like who's got a better chance right out?

Speaker 6 (29:00):
The Dallas Cowboys or the Seattle Seahawks.

Speaker 1 (29:02):
I would too.

Speaker 6 (29:03):
I mean, I don't think it's particularly close, cause you
look up the betting odds.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
I look them up.

Speaker 6 (29:10):
Oh here we go. Now Jonas doesn't have the betting odds.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
But.

Speaker 1 (29:15):
Always up. Do you really have?

Speaker 4 (29:17):
Yeah, the Dallas Cowboys and the Seattle Seahawks identical odds
to win the Super Bowl.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
That's that's disturbing.

Speaker 5 (29:29):
I would take the under of Seattle right now versus
Dallas at this moment.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
I mean, look, he's right though, they're not going to
win a Super Bowl. And I know this is something
you don't have to say it, well, you don't have
You don't have to take a parting shot at your
your your your teammates like you might be looking at
it like I'm taking a parting shot at the organization,
and that's maybe more justified, but you got to take

(29:56):
into consideration. When you do that, you're taking a shot
at all of the people that are remaining on that
roster and working there. You're basically saying, y'all stink. So
I'm out.

Speaker 4 (30:06):
I'll say this though as far as the emojis go,
Michael Parson's clearly won because he used the clown emoji,
and DeMarcus Lawrence used like that little purple devil emoji,
and the clown emoji is sneakily, the piasso, the Payaso
emoji is sneakily a really insulting, immature and funny way

(30:29):
to respond to somebody, to totally dismiss anything they have
to say. If you just send me a clown emoji,
it's wonderful.

Speaker 5 (30:36):
To Levar's point, though, it's like, look, Dallas paid you
one hundred and twenty eight million, one hundred and twenty
seven million or whatever it is over the course of
your career.

Speaker 6 (30:45):
Like, I don't know that you.

Speaker 5 (30:46):
Need to take a parting shot to justify why you're
in Seattle. I mean, the reality is it's probably they
were going to pay you more than what you were
going to get paid in Dallas. And if you go
back through that high water mark of a contract, you know,
DeMarcus Lawrence was he kind of started to take some

(31:07):
pay cuts, you know, after that one hundred million dollar contract.
You know, he went from that to a three year,
forty million dollar deal, whereas the average annual value is less.
His signing bonus was half of what it was, and
my guess is Seattle was willing to pay him more
so than what Dallas was going to And mind you,

(31:27):
he's making less with the Seattle Seahawks than under his
previous contract, the extension he signed and reworked contract after
one hundred million dollar deal. So it does seem unnecessary.
I don't Again, I'm not going to speak to a
relationship between two players.

Speaker 6 (31:41):
I have no idea. Maybe it is the Bowl game
or something.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (31:47):
I don't know, but I would just say this, it
seemed unnecessary, and I think there's some validity to what
LeVar was saying.

Speaker 6 (31:53):
Like DeMarcus Lawrence was that guy.

Speaker 5 (31:56):
He was that guy defensively for them at one point
in time for a couple of years on that team,
and after Micah Parson's rookie season, that all shifted drastically
where I'm sure everything off the field, what's going to Mike,
going to Mike going to Micah? And I'm sure that's
frustrating after being that guy for a couple of years
in a place that is arguably the biggest brand in

(32:18):
the NFL.

Speaker 4 (32:20):
I just thought it was disappointing to find out that
a great player like Micah Parsons spends more time tweeting
than can.

Speaker 6 (32:27):
We actually sing on?

Speaker 1 (32:28):
Can we look?

Speaker 5 (32:29):
Can can you guys research on their Twitter accounts or
x accounts?

Speaker 6 (32:33):
Who is tweeted more?

Speaker 1 (32:35):
Good call?

Speaker 6 (32:36):
Like, let's see, let's see what the total tally is.

Speaker 4 (32:39):
Yeah, let me do a deep dive here, let's do
a deep dive. It's a Micah Parsons. Geez, can you
even find Yeah?

Speaker 1 (32:46):
You can? Did they show that now? Sure you can? Yeah?
I don't know. No, maybe you can't. Yeah. I remember
you used to be able to see how.

Speaker 4 (32:55):
Many many tweets you can really find out who the
losers are?

Speaker 1 (33:00):
Yeah, I guess you can't see it now because they
used to have the amount of followers. The amount of
tweets they just have. Yeah, they just have follow us.

Speaker 4 (33:12):
What would you do if DeMarcus Lawrence had said, hey, Micah,
maybe if she changed your number, you know, things would
improve over there? What if what if he went after
Stick City like that?

Speaker 1 (33:22):
Then you got a deal. I will say this, DeMarcus Lawrence,
that is nowhere near its close to the followership that
Micah has Micah has five hundred and fifty nine point
six thousand followers, while DeMarcus Lawrence only has three hundred

(33:42):
and seventy five, which that's not bad.

Speaker 4 (33:44):
Well, Michah wins Google AI says that Micah Parsons has
ten thousand, five hundred and sixty five tweets as of today.

Speaker 1 (33:52):
And how many does the Marcus Lawrence have? Ten thousand?
That's a lot of tweets. Yeah, it will not answer.

Speaker 6 (33:59):
Here's the different and all that. Like one, DeMarcus Lawrence
is older.

Speaker 5 (34:03):
He probably you know, came into the league at a
time where like it wasn't as big of a deal,
so he's probably not tweeting as much. Mike has lived
in an era where that's like all they've known is
social media.

Speaker 1 (34:13):
Mike is more soologically advanced.

Speaker 6 (34:15):
He's no, I'm not even saying that. I'm just saying, like,
the kids are different.

Speaker 5 (34:18):
Like I've got a cousin, for example, it's in high
school and I have his cell phone number. If I
text him, no response. If I DM them on Instagram,
he'll respond, oh really yeah, And I'm like I don't
get it, but like again I don't And I talked
to his sisters about it, and they're like, yeah, we're
just on social media apps more. We don't actually don't
check our I message app or WhatsApp for example, any

(34:40):
messaging app. And I'm like, dude, I'm a dinosaur, Like
I don't get any of it, Like like you sent
a text, master's an email call or something. I'm great
at responding. I think you guys would admit I don't
really respond on social media. It's like the exact opposite.
But that's how a lot of these young cats are now.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
And they do it depending on what what their behavior
patterns are. They do it on their spam accounts. Like
they have regular accounts that your parents can see, and
then they have these spam accounts that they post the
type of pictures that they're not. They're not so much
keen on you as a parent seeing and they don't
think we know and mine are sleep right now. But

(35:19):
just know, if you ever hear this played back, I
do know about your spam accounts. I know what they are.
I have them, and I have ways of looking at it,
even though you have it to your private friends accounts.
So anyways, that's an interesting thing because a lot of
those pictures are and videos are very in manner risky,

(35:40):
but you can always erase it as if it didn't happen.
The conversations disappear, the pictures that are sent, and the
messages are they they they disappear. Everything disappears in social media.
But now they've made it so you can unsend and
undo text messaging too, so you have kind of the

(36:00):
same type of deal. I will ultimately tell you if
you're communicating over social media because you think the conversations
and the pictures and all that stuff disappear. Bottom line is, hey,
they can screenshot it, or they can have another phone
and screenshot it. So don't think you're safe, don't post it,
don't do it. Win in doubt, don't do it. Yeah,

(36:22):
there you go. What you should do is go to
Tractor Supply. You in line.

Hopkins signing in Baltimore and Gardner Minshew signing on to
be the backup in Kansas City.

Speaker 5 (38:17):
It's a good signing for Baltimore and Lamar. I mean,
more help there. Plus it gives Diapa chance that winning
a super Bowl, so that makes some sense. I mean,
I think it's gonna be interesting to see Minshew in
Kansas City because I mean, look, I know Pete Prisco's
not a big fan of him.

Speaker 6 (38:36):
I think he's an awesome dude. He's a funny, funny character.
He's pretty accurate thrower if you watch me.

Speaker 5 (38:44):
Man. Maybe some people question his decision making, but you know,
that's a spot on a team that it's important because
you know, Minshew might never play during the course of
next season, and he also may have to come in
potentially you know, win him a game that could be
Onnumental for them trying to.

Speaker 6 (39:01):
Get to another super Bowl, And we've.

Speaker 5 (39:03):
Seen that from Chad Henny, We've seen that from some
other backups that have been there. So it's just it's
one of those positions that is, you know, not valued
until it's valued, and there's a lot.

Speaker 1 (39:13):
Of pressure when he does have to come in there
and perform. I don't give it much thought at all,
Just not at all. You'll go back up to Patrick,
that's it. What's peach problem?

Speaker 6 (39:24):
So Mahome gets hurt and they're there like, well now
it matters.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
Yeah, what's Peach's problem with Gardner? Minshew? Why's he got
a problem with him?

Speaker 6 (39:31):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (39:31):
I mean statistically, he had like actually a decent season
when he was thrust it.

Speaker 6 (39:35):
Into play before you know, he was really supposed to.

Speaker 5 (39:38):
Well as because fools got hurt, remember yeah, and then
all of a sudden he went into play and he
actually did all right. But it's Pete, you know, he's
got a problem with everyone.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
I mean, I'm not mad at Pete for this one,
just saying I'm Minchi fan, but I'm just saying I
ain't mad at.

Speaker 4 (39:53):
Peep back like did Gardner Minshew give Arizona State that
work when he was a.

Speaker 1 (40:00):
Zoom. I'm trying to see here. Probably nothing.

Speaker 4 (40:02):
Maybe that's where it comes from. I don't know why
anybody would not like Gardner minsh.

Speaker 1 (40:05):
Just hang out with Patrick Mahomes and enjoy being Patrick
mahomes is back up and be you know, be a personality.
So what he is, Yeah,
