Speaker 1 (00:00):
How do you do? It's our number four, our number four.
As we iron out the wrinkles on the Ben Malers
Show podcast here in hour four, how sincere is defensive
end Trey Hendrickson's good bye note to Cincinnati they did
not franchise tag him. Where does Hendrickson end up? Next?
Are the Bengals now cooked without edge rusher Trey Hendrickson

(00:23):
returning to that defense? And also we have three musketeers
of the franchise Tag, the real franchise Tag Breeze Hall,
George Pickens and Kyle Pitts. Which one is going to
make the biggest stink over being the franchise tag player.
We'll talk you about that and more. Settle and have
a great rest of your Wednesday here this fourth day
of March. Here it is our number four. Hey Trey,

(00:48):
go away, go away, go away, go away, go away.
Welcome In the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Mahler Show. We are in the the air ev rewares.
We talk to talk talk Talk Talk, Talk talk, and
we do the hippo hip hop coast to coast, border,

(01:12):
the border and beyond on the vast and colossally powerful
microphones of FSR ammundating live from the Grand as we
have a grand old time hanging out together the world
famous Fox Sports Radio studios now out back. John and
Joanna in SoCal in the San Gabriel Valley remind us

I leave this hour from the wacky world of pro
football and by by Bengals kind. We'll go to Cincinnati,
where a player who wanted to go somewhere else last
year didn't get his wish. Now he's gotten his wish.

(02:45):
The Bengals did not use the franchise tag on a
defensive end, Trey Hendrickson, and that means that a player
who is an All Pro and way back in twenty
twenty four is now available to sign with your NFL team.
Hendrickson's time was Cincinnati done after five seasons. Now, he

(03:07):
gave a very emotional, very emotional goodbye. I don't you
saw this or not? No, Henderson posted a heartfelt thank
you letter to the organization, his teammates, his coaches, and
the staff. The fans was on the socials. It was
on the socials. And so that's a good jumping off point.

(03:28):
Let us discuss the question as we discussed this, how sincere?
All right? How sincere was Trey Hendrickson's goodbye note to
the Cincinnati football team. So I've got Italian job, Skippy,
Peanut Butter, and Drone show, and we will combine all

(03:51):
of these things together and we're gonna have the Gobbegol.
We're gonna have the gobbegool, all right. So to lead
off here, this based on what we know about Trey
Henderson in the public theater, this is some it's saucy,
it's it's weak. Sauce. Right, it's corporate poetry. No, I'm

(04:14):
so cynegal, How cynegal are you? That? I see these
players that change teams, and every year a bunch of
players change teams, and they go from city to city
and they change uniforms and all that stuff. And I
look at this and I just roll my eyes because
so much of it is just blooney, right, blooney. Trey

(04:34):
Hendrickson was not writing from the heart. He was writing
from the PR department, is what he was doing here.
And he means kind of passed through Cincinnati and that's it.
And then the Bengals were the cream filling in the
oreo of his career, meaning that he started a lot
of people don't know this, but Tray Henderson started with

(04:56):
the Saints, played four years, not much, but played four
years in New Orleans, went on to the Bengals, and
his next stop, whoever pays him, that's where he's gonna go.
I don't blame him, but that's the reality. Nobody believes
in the NFL these days. In the Irish goodbye, I'm
a big Irish goodbye guy. I like the Irish Goodbye.

(05:16):
In the NFL, it's always the Italian job. It's always
the or go the Italian exit, you know, and you know,
the hugs, the kisses, the leftovers, have some more, have
some more leftover. Yeah, I don't want any more left
take the leftovers. And then you got, yeah, another conversation
at the door, and uh yeah, listen, it's it's wild

(05:38):
they follow you your car, just let me, let me go.
So nobody does that, and so this becomes a paint
by number situation. You change teams, right, you change teams,
and what do you do? You post a note or
they used to buy newspaper as John Harblass still bought
a newspaper add and Baltimore, my god, when he left

(06:02):
the Ravens to go coach the Giants where they fired
him Henderson, he can't come out and say, listen, I
didn't like my time in Cincinnati. There were no other
good players around me. They didn't pay me what I
was worth. And by the way, I don't like the
nickname Porcolopolis or whatever it is, and I don't like that.
So it's a dumb nickname for a city and all that.

(06:23):
And so instead he plays the game. And that's that. Now.
The other question is where does Trey Hendrickson go next.
This is always the most fun. It's always the most fun.
You get out the big board there like you're a
weather reporter and you look at the chart. You look
at the jet stream and he's sorry, which way's the
jet stream going? Is there? Is there a high? Is

(06:44):
there a low? What's going on with that? So the
NFL traveling Circus continues with Trey Hendrickson, who's just another
pass rush mercenary, who can be yours if the price
is right, can be yours, and using the mallor crystal
ball to try to determine where Trey Hendrickson is going
to go up and go to. In this traveling circus,

(07:07):
you look at it. You got horseshoes, You've got hibernation,
the rodeo, and patriotism, all of those things. So you
start with Indianapolis. That makes a lot of sense. And
we've talked about the theme overnight. If you've been with
us all night, I know you may just get up
this hour and hear this hour, but we've talked about
it most of the overnight, and the reality is that

(07:31):
it's not how good you are, it's who you know
oftentimes to get you paid and the former Bengals defensive
coordinator is now hanging out in Indianapolis, So that would
be the Horseshoes. That would be the Horseshoes, right, Rodeo,
We mentioned that hibernation, but the Horseshoes would be the
Indianapolis Colts. And the coaching staff knows him. They've got

(07:54):
some wiggle room they can get rid of some people,
make some more money appearing all that Dallas. They need
a defensive headliner. They had one, but they sent him
off to Wisconsin for some cheese curds from the Packers
New England. Also, they need some star dust. They got
to the Super Bowl, but they didn't have the star dust,
and it was it was really a lot of trickeration

(08:17):
to get there playing a bunch of tomato cans and
ham and eggers. And you're gonna be playing better opponents
you would think next year. So it's gonna be harder
for the Patriots. And I mentioned I don't know if
we mentioned Chicago, but Chicago that would be the Hibernation.
The Bears, Monsters of the Midway and all that stuff,
and they need a real monster to get to the
quarterback there in Chicago. So anyway, you slice it anyway

(08:40):
you slice it. Hendrickson will have a new uniform. And
as always, you follow the money, follow the money, pal,
follow the money, always money, money, money. Gott follow the
money right now. Furthermore, keeping the beat going. And the
other question regarding the defensive edge from Cincinnati. Are the

(09:05):
Bengals now cooked? Are the Bengals now cooked without Trey
Hendrickson coming back and he's he's out, he's not coming back,
so they're not gonna pay him. He's gone. That's it.
Game over. It's game over. So on the surface, you
would say yes. If you look at the last five
years for the Cincinnati football team, the last five years

(09:28):
with Trey Hendrickson in the lineup, the Bengals have a
five to sixty nine winning percentage. They're ten games above
five hundred with Trey Hendrickson playing on the defense. When
Hendrickson is a wall when he doesn't play, Cincinnati is
twenty four and fifty one and one. By the way,

(09:52):
I'll throw that one in there, So my math tells
me that is twenty seven games under five hundred when
Hendrickson does not play. If my math is career, that
that is a three twenty two winning percentage numbers might
be off a little bit, but never let just being
a contrarian here. Forget the math because I use Mallard

(10:12):
math being a contrarian. I don't buy this story that
the Bengals are completely screwed here without Trey Hendrickson. And
while Stanley cardiac Stanley in Cincinnati, who had a heart
attack on the air, loves his Bengals, and I don't
think just Josh does. He's a cowboy fan. I don't
know about justin my guys in Cincinnati. I know Dick

(10:34):
and Dayton, big fan, big fan Dick and Dayton of
the Bengals. But I'm gonna be Benny bright Side here.
And the reason I'm gonna be Benny bright said, While
it is true that Trey Hendrickson put up great stats
and the record was better with him than without him
in the lineup, and he certainly had an impact on
the games and all that, however, he did miss a
lot of time. He was not readily available. And if

(10:58):
you look at the impact that he had for the
Bengals here, Trey Henderson, he was like an item on
the McDonald's menu, the McRib a seasonal item, if you will,
good when you see it. Can't really build the full
menu around it because it only comes out for a
few months a year and then that's it. And Cincinnati
finished thirty first in defense last year. Now I did not,

(11:24):
I did not did not play in the NFL, but
I do know that if there's only thirty two teams
in your thirty first, I don't think that's great. I
don't think, oh, you're being mean, you're a meani. I
just don't think that's great. So that means the good
news is the bar can't get much lower. And no one,
no one is saying that the Bengals have to put

(11:47):
off a two thousand Ravens or eighty five Bears defense.
They just need to be somewhat competent, be able to
chew gum and walk at the same time. That's it.
Use the skippy peanut butter approach, as I call it,
and you spread that peanut butter that money, You spread
that money around. And there are ways this is going
to shock you. There are ways to improve defensively. You

(12:09):
don't have to suck in perpetuity. You can get better.
Get some high motor guys, overachievers. Scheme it up. Coach
it up, all that stuff pass rush by committee and
Trey Henderson, one of the knocks on him was that
he was always only worried about sacks. He didn't play
the run very well, and that was a weakness, and
that was a weak spot. So you got to be
better than that and just put a lunch pale defense together,

(12:34):
do it that way and climb from the bottom five
to the middle of the pack. And then I believe
Joe Burrow never seems to stay healthy. But if Burrow
stays healthy with Jamar Chase and he got some wiggle
room to crank up the old the smoker and start smoking.

(12:54):
And so I don't believe they're doomed. I don't believe
they're doing They just need to obviously do a better
job coaching. That would be the start. Get some better player, sure,
all right. Meanwhile, elsewhere on franchise tag day, always a
big day. Will always look forward to it. Man, is
it exciting? One of my favorite days of the year. Yeah,
one of my favorite days of there. So running back
Bryce hall Bresall got a fourteen point three million dollars

(13:21):
franchise tag from New York Meeting that he will continue
in the cockpit there with the Jets. Suck Suck, suck,
and the Jets would get not one, but two first
round draft picks as compensation if he were to leave.
Now he wasn't alone. Dallas wide receiver George Pickens, George, George,

(13:43):
George got the franchise tag. Atlanta tight end Kyle Pitts,
the player that's only had about three good games in
his career. Kyle Pitts gets the franchise tag because Atlanta
doesn't know what they're doing, and so those guys are
all attacked. So the question. You've got the three musketeers
of the authentic og franchise tag. Three musketeers Breese Hall
with the Jets, George Pickens with the Cowboys, and Kyle

(14:06):
Pitts with the Falcons. So here's the question. This can
be a group project if you want, which one of
the three musketeers of the franchise tag, which one is
going to make the biggest stink or stank if you like. So,
after a proper minutes long Mallar style deliberation of the

(14:29):
available evidence, the answer is obvious with a capitol oh,
capital oh obvious, Yes, Slim Pickens. George Pickens to me,
it's not even close to me. This is not even close.
And I'm excited with the future holds. I know everything's
bigger in Texas and Jerry Jones, in Jerry's world. As

(14:52):
the guardian of Jerry's world. It's the NFL's version of
a fireworks warehouse, and and there's a gas station and
then the gas is leaking, and yeah, it's a combustible situation.
It's a tender box, is what it is there and
just waiting to explode, just waiting to explode. The Cowboys

(15:15):
already backed up a couple of bank heists and gave
the truck of money to Cede Lamb as the top
wide receiver for the Cowboys. So we know that. Do
you think there is a world in the multiverse where
Jerry Jones thirty years plus, this guy's been the GM
of the Dallas Cowboys. Do you think Jerry Jones wants

(15:37):
to pay two Divo wide receivers? Do you think he does?

Speaker 2 (15:42):
So?

Speaker 1 (15:42):
This is no of course, DoD So this is going
to be a Texas drone show, and I get the fireworks,
the smoke machine. Over to the right. You'll have Jerry
Jones doing his weekly radio hits in Dallas, and he'll
be giving information. You'll have agents leaking stuff. It's kabookie
Theater is what it is. Calling down to the theater,

(16:02):
buy a ticket, fun for all ages, Kabooki Theater. And
Pickens will be the gasoline. Jerry Jones will be out
there on his yacht smoking a cigar. Got the stogy,
He's good to go. The franchise tag would be the
pressure cooker, so you got that. And Pickens, it seems,
based on what we know of George Pickens, he's not
exactly the kind of guy that's gonna downplay things and

(16:24):
just keep his head down and keep working. And he's
not that guy. You're not that guy, Pal, You're not
that guy. He's the guy that handles conflict like a
toddler with a drum set, bang bang bam bam, that
kind of thing. So I'm not saying that Breece Hall's
not gonna complain. I remember doing monologues with Breece Hall
wanting out of the Jets, being upset that he wasn't traded,

(16:48):
So he'll he'll raise a little bit of a hullabaloo.
I don't know much about Kyle Pitts. I don't know
if he's gonna do anything, but it doesn't matter because
Pickens is the one that's going to detonate George Pickens.
And this is great because new Off's we're trying to
think what's gonna carry us between now here we sit
in early March. We got to get through the rest
of March, which is gonna be Pro Day season, and

(17:08):
then we've got April with the NFL Draft, and then
free agency is gonna happen again, and the new league
year starts next week. But this George Pickens cowboy situation,
this is it pandemonium. I don't know about that. I
don't know about pandemonium. But it is three months of
talk radio content. And if you're in the content business,

(17:29):
this is great. This is This is like going down
to Costco and buying a big tub of mayonnaise. It's
gonna last for a while. It's gonna last for a while,

Is.

Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yeah so this guy he founded a like A chinese
consumer electronic, company and he purchased a share of The
Miami dolphins and the team was evaluated at twelve billion.
Dollars oh my. Gosh, yeah one person he bought one

(26:00):
of the. TEAM i didn't even know you could buy
one percent and it's worth well that obviously not worth twelve,
billion but eight percent is one percent of twelve. Billion,
now while you seem, impressed you didn't call about, that,
though you did not call about.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
