Speaker 1 (00:04):
Unafraid Show Daily Live. All right, so the NFL playoffs.
We know who's playing in the Super Bowl, Chiefs and Eagles,
but there's a lot more storylines because why can't Josh
Allen beat Patrick Mahomes And is Josh Allen then overrated?
Who would you take if you were starting a franchise,
Jalen Hurts or Jayden Daniels.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Oh, don't be a prisoner of the moment. I got
the answer for you as well.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Flau J Johnson and South Carolina had a big problem.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
So there's LSU South Carolina. We got to talk about that.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
And NFL owners have no clue what they are wanting
when it comes to hiring coaches. That and more here
on the Unaffraid Show, Like subscribe, get notifications and tell
a friend, let's get to it. We don'll start with
(01:04):
these NFL playoffs because watching Patrick Mahomes and watching the
hate about Patrick Mahomes and what these Chiefs are accomplishing
and people trying to diminish it, it's funny to me.
I do not understand why people, well, I say it
like this, I do not believe that you could have
(01:25):
watched that game with a clear conscience and say the
referees are helping Patrick Mahomes. You can't like at no
point in time can you say, oh, well, how about
that catch? No catch, simultaneous catch always goes to the offense.
The ball hit the ground. The ball can hit the
ground as long as the ball doesn't move. They both
(01:47):
had a holder, but the ball didn't move one single
solitary inch. So come on, man, let's understand what is
at stake right now. The Chiefs are in line for
their first three peak, and in the first three peat
in NFL history, Like, there are a rare amount of
(02:08):
teams that have even made it to three straight Super Bowls,
and they are now in that conversation with the So
the Chiefs, Now, you got the sixteen to eighteen Patriots,
you got the ninety to ninety three Bills, but they
actually went to four straight and lost all four.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
And then you got the seventy one to seventy three Dolphins.
That's it. Those are the only teams in the history
of the NFL to ever do that.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
And you got Josh Allen and you had Patrick Mahomes
playing in that game. And the narrative surrounding this is
very interesting because Josh Allen has been propped up like
he's a guy that has been pointed to by so
many people in the media. Oh, he's probably the most
talented NFL quarterback of all time.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
He might be the great like all of those things.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
And there there are so many people that wanted him
to beat Patrick Mahomes because then they can elevate him
to Oh, we got a new sheriff in town. This
is a rivalry that we want. No what we are
actually watching. We're not even watching Michael Jordan versus the NBA,
because there were plenty of really great players who won
(03:17):
on Michael Jordan's watch. You got Kareem Magic Bird, Shaq,
Kobe one, Tim Duncan won, Isaiah Thomas won.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
All of those dudes won.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
It's not just Ewing Barkley Stocking him alone that got
shut out. There were plenty of people that won during
Michael Jordan's whole entire run. What Patrick Mahomes is doing.
This ain't normal AFC Championship game. First year starting. If
it weren't for an off size penalty against Brady, he
(03:51):
would have won that and been in the Super Bowl
his first year. Starting next year, super Bowl win third
year goes to the Super Bowl again, Brady both tackles out,
loses AFC Championship game. You're five Super Bowl win, your
six Super Bowl win, You're seven. Now he's back in
the Super Bowl. If you want to win a championship
(04:12):
since Patrick Mahomes has been starting so for seven years,
you gotta go through Kansas City. We have never seen
a run like this in sports in the modern era,
Like we got to go back to like the Bill
the Bill Russell Celtics days, and we're in the era
of free agency. So to see this and people not
(04:35):
really be able to comprehend it and don't like it
and want to diminish it is incredible to me.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
That's the part that is that I don't understand.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
And but the reason that Josh Allen cannot beat Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Twofold, first of which is.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
The have you ever known some body who wants to
win so bad like that that they want that promotion,
they want that the life that they want, They want
to win that football game, and they leave no stone unturned.
So there is no part of me that believes that
Josh Allen is neither prepared, that he is not working enough,
(05:20):
that he's not watching enough film that he that none
of those things are the issue. Have you ever known
somebody that wants something so bad and e squeeze it
so tight like that their whole effort is directed at that,
but when it comes down to the actual execution, it
just doesn't. Like for some reason, they can't get over
(05:41):
the hump. It's always something in the way like that
that they're just sisipist pushing a rock up the hill
and then once they get damn near to the top,
it rolls back over. That's who Josh Allen is, and
it's because he wants it so bad and he doesn't
know how to relax in those moments and not care.
(06:02):
You're like, George, why would he need to not care.
Let's look at Kobe Bryant for example. Kobe Bryant under
Michael Jordan, any of the greats, Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes.
They understand the gravity of the moment, the gravity of
losing a championship, the gravity of it. But what they
(06:22):
do they don't care in that moment they are in
the zone they are playing. They're like, Okay, I'm not
gonna be concerned. Like they're not thinking, oh, should I
be conservative here? Should I go be aggressive. No, they
are reacting and playing because they have done all the preparation,
and at the end of the day, you're either gonna
win or you're gonna lose. If you're so worried about
(06:45):
the outcome in the moment or even in the preparation
to it, that gets you all tight. The greats, the
ones who execute when it matters the most, They understand
and do not care about the result until the result
is had. Because you're either gonna win or you're gonna lose.
There's two true outcomes. There's no ties allowed. And that's
(07:08):
the first reason. And because there's a lot of people
that are gonna point out that Josh Allen is zero
to four against Kansas City and that the Bills average
twenty eight points. You know, he's got a thirteen hundred yards,
eleven touchdowns, one interception, and that this Bill's defense is
giving up thirty eight, forty two, twenty seven and thirty two.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
But here is the truth.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
There are three to four plays a game that are
separating these dudes.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
That is it.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
This isn't some monumental gap, even though it feels like
a monumental gap. Prime example, I remember when my son
was so he's freshman in college now, and he was
a junior, I believe, and he was starting to get
scholarship offers and interest and all of that stuff. And
I remember telling him, I said, son, you have come
(07:59):
eighty five percent of the way on one hundred mile journey.
You've gone eighty five miles. But the last fifteen miles
that you're about to go to actually sign and go
to college and all of that stuff. And then obviously
it starts over them, but that that last fifteen miles
is going to be harder than the first eighty five
(08:21):
because this one straight up hill.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
The first eighty five was flat.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Yeah, there's some hills every now and then, but the
last fifteen straight up And that's what Josh Allen is
dealing with. And the second reason why is it has
nothing to do with him. It has to do with
he is just playing against the greatest quarterback that has
ever tied up shoes.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
That's it. That's it.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
And yes, there is the you know, the Bills was
the game plan right and everything else, But here is
the thing that just rubbed me the wrong way that
we have seen so many that like if you open
up your Twitter app, you open up TikTok whatever it is,
and there are so many people breaking down, Oh what
(09:04):
Josh Allen did wrong on that play where he threw
a ball to Dalton k and Kate that Dalton k
and Kate should have caught. They're like, oh, he should
have thrown the orbit. There is nothing more frustrating to
actual football players or actual basketball baseball players. When you
have somebody who may understand the game, know the game,
(09:24):
and you know and have a.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Good feel for it.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Try to tell you what somebody what Josh Allen should
have done when two unblocked defenders are coming and in
the heat, when they have no clue how hard it
is when you're leaning there to try to get the
ball back to the orbit. And he made a great
play to begin with. So here is the issue, and
(09:51):
this is going to sum up that play in because
people will come up with all the takes.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Here is the truth.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Spags the the Chiefs defensive coordinator won he was setting
that play up. He had that in his back pocket
because and they fool Josh Allen.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
When you watch the video, he looks to the left first.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
And the reason why he looks to the left first
is because he thinks he's protected on the right side
because he's not thinking that that Duffy for sure is
not going to blitz. He's thinking that something else over
here is going to trick him. This is why he's
looking over here. And then all of a sudden he
(10:37):
feels pressure and two unblocked defenders and he's like, oh, ish,
like I gotta do something here, and he made a play.
If dalkon kin k catches that ball, it's a whole
different story. But what does this mean for Josh Allen's legacy?
Is it worse off or better off than Lamar Jackson?
(11:00):
That's the question, because Lamar Jackson has been like the
last couple of weeks crucified on this app after losing
to Josh Allen on a drop pass that he hit him,
that he hit Mark Andrews writ in the stomach. Everybody's
breaking it down. Oh my gosh, the Lamar he just
(11:22):
oh paper MVP can't get it done, all of this stuff,
and I'm wondering, where is the same energy for Josh Allen. Now,
mind you, both things are actually stupid, right because people
act like that just because you are a great player,
that you are somehow entitled to a championship.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
They want this Pollyanna world.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Everybody gets a chance, you'll get a ring that There
are no happy endings for most people in sports. Your
happy ending is Josh Allen's contract and his life that
he gets to live, the all the accouterments that come
with it for being in longtime NFL quarterback, Buffalo legend,
(12:10):
everything that comes with it.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
That's your win. That's your happy ending.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Lamar Jackson may never get a title, bub Joe Burrow
may never get a title. Neither may Josh Allen. There
are no happy well, excuse me, there are very few
happy endings in sports. And people want that happy ending.
They're like, oh, you gotta get it done. No you don't.
(12:35):
It doesn't work that way. Just because you are a
special talent, that does not entitle you to a championship.
These things are earned, they are not given. And there
are three things that it takes to win a championship,
no matter how great you are. There's obviously talent, there
(12:56):
is health, and then there's luck. Those are the three
things that matter and your and your talent is obviously
one two help.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
Look at the Detroit Lions, health.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Absolutely derailed their season is it different if they're if
all their defensive players don't get hurt, probably, are they
in the in the Super Bowl?
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Probably? Or maybe that's the difference, and then you need
a little bit of luck.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
But how can we try to minimize what Lamar Jackson,
what Josh Allen, what Joe Burrow, what every team in
the AFC has been up against with Patrick Mahomes the
last three years with the Chiefs.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Oh damn, my god, Oh.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Hamstring crap ha ha oh hold on the old old
NFL issue. Doubt here moving the legs all right, So
what they've been up against is basically miss stake free football.
That's what the Chiefs have been playing, turnover free football
for basically three straight years.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
And people are wondering, oh, oh, I wonder why this
is so.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
The biggest determination between winning and losing in the NFL
is turnovers turnovers and when they turn the ball over
one time in three years in the playoffs, and people
were like, oh, it's the Raps. No, they do not
beat themselves. That's why Josh Allen can't win. Now, the
(14:38):
next question is, would you take Jalen Hurts or would
you take Jayden Daniels If you were starting an NFL
team right now.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
And those are your two options.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Because the narrative coming into the game on Saturday, well
Sunday was was that Jalen Hurts was the fourth best
quarterback left out of the four and he was the
player holding the Eagles back and what does he do
twenty for twenty eight two forty six touchdown and three
rushing touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
I mean that that was the narrative.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
And then about Jayden Daniels is that he might not
that he actually might be enough himself to overcome the
massive talent discrepancy between the two teams, and that he
was the most ready to play and everything else. But
here is what I will tell you. This is Jalen
(15:34):
hurts second super Bowl in five years in the NFL
five years. But you're telling me that you would take
a rookie over that. We're talking about a dude who
dresses like somebody's uncle. And he is a great leader,
great leader of the franchise. He controls his whiteouse, even
though that they even though the AJ Browns a little bit,
(15:54):
you know, you know, he's a malcontent at times. Keeps
that on the radar company. Man, everything that you need
to do that's what you got, but you want to
trade it for a lottery ticket. So if Jaden, I'm sorry,
If Jalen Hurts has been to the Super Bowl twice already, granted,
(16:17):
teams matter.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
I told you.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
There's luck, there is talent that are involved in winning
and losing. So how are you going to take a
guy in Jadeen Daniels As exquisite as this year was,
the sample size is so small, so small, and there's
(16:44):
a saying, if you can do it once, it's an accident,
you can do it twice.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
You can really do it.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
So jade Daniels got to prove that he can replicate
this season again. Dude, he's got to prove that he
can replicate it again before I'm willing to trade in
my Jalen Hurt stock for Jayden Daniels. Let me repeat
that for you. If you do it once, it's an accident.
(17:11):
If you do it twice, you can really do it.
So there is not a snowballs chance in hell I
am trading in my Jalen Hurt stock for Jaden Daniel stock.
At this point in time, I got a dude who's
lead me to Super Bowls regularly twice in five years.
But but there's questions, oh, oh my god, look at
(17:34):
sa Quon's carrying him.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
We sure do may throws. Do may throws?
Speaker 1 (17:44):
And the organization is doing a great job so and people,
oh well, it's got so much help. That's part of
winning Super Bowls. Yes, the organization has been good, getting
Saquon Barkley trade for aj Brown, and their defensive drafting
has been absolutely insane because all four defensive players that
they picked in twenty twenty four played at least sixteen games.
(18:08):
Come on, man, and the Giants they basically gave him
sakwon Barkley, So whose fault is that? Come on man,
And the fact that Nick Sirianni, their head coach, was
on the hot seat when this year started, is laughable.
The man has won what he went ninety eight the
(18:30):
first year or eight nine, then ends up eleven wins,
thirteen wins, fourteen win.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Like this is the guy you want to fire? Okay,
all right, all right.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Jobs would be safe and secure for a little bit
right now. And the commanders, yes, the future is bright,
but we know how the NFL works. It is set
up for you not to have long term success. So
who are you taking hopping the comments Jayden Daniels, or
are you taking Jalen Hurts right right now? Because I'm
(19:03):
taking the guy who's a little bit more underrated at
this point in time, even though his success has been shown.
All right, Next thing up, and you guys make sure
that you guys like subscribe get notifications because remember Unafraid
Show Daily Live is here Mondays and Wednesdays twelve thirty Pacific,
three thirty Eastern time, and then you have the College
(19:26):
Football Show on Tuesday, College Football Apostles on Thursday Boom,
and then on Sundays we got to College Football Show too.
We're going to get into our speaker series where we
are going to be traveling around talking to industry leaders
in college football, head coaches and everybody else in between.
So y'all stay on tap for that.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
All right.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
The next thing I wanted to talk about before we
get to the NFL hires and how NFL franchises have
no clue what they're looking for with their coaches. I
want to talk about what happened with LSU and South
Carolina in women's basketball.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
You're like, George, how does this matter? Well? Check this out?
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Stay stay with me here because this is an extension
of angel recent company at LSU and that rivalry with
Don Staley and everybody at South Carolina. So what happened
is is Friday, Don Staley in South Carolina gave Kim
Moki and LSU their first loss of the season, and
(20:26):
now Staley is five and zer against LSU, huge pay raise,
four million dollars a year, everything else. But here is
where the controversy happened is that after the game, the
in house DJ for South Carolina decided to play a
song called cut Friends, and the rapper's name was Camouflage
and that was and he played it well, it was played.
(20:48):
She played it right after the final buzzer sounded. Now
here's the issue though, because you're like a song the
how could the song have been that bad?
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Okay, here's the issue.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
The rapper his name was Camouflage Jason to kill Johnson,
and I say was because the dude was killed over
twenty years ago, Like, okay, why does that matter? Because
his daughter is LSU star Flage Johnson and he got
(21:19):
killed while Flage was still in her mother's womb. And
the DJ, known as DJTO is a female graduate of
South Carolina older like not not a young DJ and
essentially acknowledged on her personal Instagram that that was a
troll job. She got suspended for the game, but it
was Flage that called it out because I'm not sure
(21:41):
if anybody even knew that that that had happened. I
believe that this was one hundred percent out of bounds. However,
I was trying to think because I always try to
look at things from both points of view. So is
(22:02):
it possible that the DJ knew that that was Flage's
dad but didn't know that Flag's dad had died?
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Is that possible?
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Is it possible that yes, it was a I mean
because social media for teams and all of this stuff,
they trade jabs all the time. But the question is
where's the line? Where's the line? Because I saw this
as completely I'm like, ah, that was that was? That
(22:34):
was too much playing her dad's song. Had her dad
been alive, one hundred percent in bounds, one hundred percent
in bounds.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
I am here for it. I'm not mad.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
But the fact that the man had passed away and
that this is something that there is no doubt that
Flaj Johnson has been dealing with. I know this more
than anybody, probably well, very few people under standing this
like I understand this because my family, we have a
blended family. My oldest daughter, her dad passed away when
(23:09):
she was ten weeks old, ten weeks so I understand
how she feels about the absence of her father, her
biological father. So I can even imagine how Flaje feels
about this because I have been through it. I have
(23:30):
seen my daughter talk about it. We have extensive conversations
throughout the years about it. So I understand how this
could be extremely hurtful, and truthfully, a one game suspension
would probably not be enough for me. If if there
(23:51):
was any way to know for sure what was in
the DJ's art, if the DJ knew that the man
was dead, I need, if I'm flop J I need,
I want, I want to pound a flesh, to be
honest with you. But if the DJ didn't know, if
djt O didn't know, now I'm gonna offer a little
(24:14):
bit more more grace and now the world knows. So
that's that. What do you think should happen to the DJ?
Should the DJ have been fired? Or was this that
far out of bounds?
Speaker 2 (24:27):
All? Right?
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Next thing up, the NFL, the owners, they have no
idea what they want when it comes to hiring coaches.
And this is why you've had so much drama this
offseason when it have come to coaches. Now the Chicago
Bears and other teams, have they interviewed ump team candidates?
(24:50):
Like how are you interviewing like fifteen guys for your
head coaching that you even announced for your head coaching job?
Speaker 2 (24:56):
How other interview in nine ten? Well guys?
Speaker 1 (25:00):
So what has happened is what typically happens is when
they are looking for head coaches, they obviously, you know
the new hot shots in the league. You got Aaron Glenn,
you got Ben Johnson, They're all hot shotting around the league.
You know, feels good, and those names are always going
to be at the top of the list. But then
(25:21):
a lot of times these owners will hire search firms
to tab who the next coach should should be. But
the owners don't know what they really want because if
you are going to tab a search firm, you have
to give them better criteria or somebody.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
To help you.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
You can say, do I want an offensive coach? Do
I want a defensive coach? Do I want a players coach?
Do I want somebody who's been a head coach before.
What are the things that I'm actually looking for as
opposed to oh oh well, oh yeah, I resonate with
that guy right there, right right there. And this is
exactly the problem that there has been with the Rooney
rule in the NFL. It is not that like that.
(26:05):
Of course, there is inherent bias in people and all
of this stuff. I do not believe that this is
just for the majority of like I'm could there be
a racist owner, sure, right, but that for the most
part that this is just not overt in your face racism.
I believe that this comes down to people's personal bias.
(26:27):
And because if I sit down with somebody that I'm
interviewing to hire for the Unafraid Show, of course I'm
looking for competency on the on the resume, right, so
that's given, you know, once you pass the resume competency.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Now we get to talking.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Now as the boss, at some point in time, there's
somebody that I'm going to feel good about that I
resonate with, whether he reminds me of my son, my uncle, nephew,
my dad, like, something is going to strike where I
believe in this person. And this is the problem is
that there are so many NFL owners who are obviously
(27:11):
older that do not like what we heard about Mike
Tomlin when he interviewed outside of the Steelers.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
It's always a little two hip hop.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
Turns out, this is one of the best leaders of
coaches that we've had in the NFL in a very
long time. That this man is a ultimate leader. But
the owner didn't resonate with him like that, and that
is one hundred percent understandable. But the question is how
do you change those things because the owners have to
(27:40):
start getting a criteria for what they want, and this
is why you've had drama surrounding it.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
And one of the.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Drama situations was with Liam Cohen going to the Jaguars
from Tampa Bay because the dude signed five years at
twelve million dollars. That's a lot of money for Liam Cohen,
who was not It didn't feel like being sought out
and high prioritied by other teams in the NFL. So
(28:09):
here's how this drama goes. So the Bucks encouraged Cohen
to do a zoom interview, then they make him a
verbal offer to be the highest paid assistant in the NFL.
Cohen then agrees doesn't show up to sign his contract
because he actually went to do an in person interview
with the Jags. Dude snuck out the back door while
the parents are sleeping upstairs. And then the Jags were
(28:31):
afraid that the Bucks would make Cohen a promise to
be the head coach in Wadon, so they canceled their
interview with Robert Salah and told Cohen that he could
pick the new GM. Now, mind you, the Balki who
was the original Jags GM, He's not been on the
top of the list for other for coaches in terms
(28:52):
of the guy that they wanted to build the team with.
So then the Jags adventure like if it will will
fire a balt And then that's where things turn with Cohen.
Because Cohen he helped Baker Mayfield lead the league in touchdown passes.
He's gonna be The Bucks are gonna be on their
third OC in three years after firing Byron Leftwig and
then losing Dave Canalis to the Panthers, and now Todd
(29:16):
Bose is on an expiring contract. So this is a
whole another piece of drum and it's because the team
didn't really know what they wanted, and then they ended
up having to settle for Cohen, who may turn out
to be a great coach. And fans they want a
big shiny name, but big shiny names ain't always.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
It got to get good people.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
And then look a look at what Dallas did with
the what Jerry Jones did hiring Brian Schottenheimer.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
Could he be successful? Guest?
Speaker 1 (29:49):
But does this also look at look like the exact
same thing that Jerry Jones has been doing, hiring coaches
who he he's gonna be able to bully around and
still call all the shots with the team. Think about that,
because Brian Schottenhammer came to the Cowboys as a consultant
(30:11):
before he replaced Kellen Moore as offensive coordinator two years ago,
and you wanted to allegedly keep Mike McCarthy. So how
did this happen? How did this happen? I mean, but
just they think about this. The only other Dallas Cowboys
head coach to be hired without coaching experience was Dave Campo,
(30:33):
who was fifteen and thirty three from two thousand to
two thousand and two. I'm just saying, I mean, and
so Jerry Jones didn't know what he was doing. Now,
there is one team that I do feel like had
at least a real plan, and that's the Las Vegas Raiders.
(30:56):
They're trying to stabilize what's going on. Do I think
that they should have fired Antonio person No? Do I
think he had a fair chance.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Nope.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
But they hired Pete Carroll on a three year deal.
Dude has only had four losing seasons in his career,
and this is a move to stabilize the franchise. Because
Pete Carroll's seventy some years old.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
He ain't gonna be coaching that long.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
But if you can get three years of stability to
build up a program, build up a culture, and then
he either bounced and help you hire the new coach
or he stay around because he's having fun and y'all
are winning. That's the difference is that the Raiders wanted
(31:42):
Ben Johnson, then when they couldn't get him, they were like, nah, no, no,
We're going with Pete Carroll, which makes sense for a
team that's been relegating or to bottom feeding for two decades. Basically,
So you guys, let me know what you guys think.
How did the hires go? Who would you have hired
(32:02):
and I thank you for your time, I thank you
for your energy. This is the Unafraid Show, Come back tomorrow.
All sorts of content, peace out,
Unafraid Show Daily Live. All right, so the NFL playoffs.
We know who's playing in the Super Bowl, Chiefs and Eagles,
but there's a lot more storylines because why can't Josh
Allen beat Patrick Mahomes And is Josh Allen then overrated?
Who would you take if you were starting a franchise,
Jalen Hurts or Jayden Daniels.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Oh, don't be a prisoner of the moment. I got
the answer for you as well.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Flau J Johnson and South Carolina had a big problem.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
So there's LSU South Carolina. We got to talk about that.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
And NFL owners have no clue what they are wanting
when it comes to hiring coaches. That and more here
on the Unaffraid Show, Like subscribe, get notifications and tell
a friend, let's get to it. We don'll start with
(01:04):
these NFL playoffs because watching Patrick Mahomes and watching the
hate about Patrick Mahomes and what these Chiefs are accomplishing
and people trying to diminish it, it's funny to me.
I do not understand why people, well, I say it
like this, I do not believe that you could have
(01:25):
watched that game with a clear conscience and say the
referees are helping Patrick Mahomes. You can't like at no
point in time can you say, oh, well, how about
that catch? No catch, simultaneous catch always goes to the offense.
The ball hit the ground. The ball can hit the
ground as long as the ball doesn't move. They both
(01:47):
had a holder, but the ball didn't move one single
solitary inch. So come on, man, let's understand what is
at stake right now. The Chiefs are in line for
their first three peak, and in the first three peat
in NFL history, Like, there are a rare amount of
(02:08):
teams that have even made it to three straight Super Bowls,
and they are now in that conversation with the So
the Chiefs, Now, you got the sixteen to eighteen Patriots,
you got the ninety to ninety three Bills, but they
actually went to four straight and lost all four.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
And then you got the seventy one to seventy three Dolphins.
That's it. Those are the only teams in the history
of the NFL to ever do that.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
And you got Josh Allen and you had Patrick Mahomes
playing in that game. And the narrative surrounding this is
very interesting because Josh Allen has been propped up like
he's a guy that has been pointed to by so
many people in the media. Oh, he's probably the most
talented NFL quarterback of all time.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
He might be the great like all of those things.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
And there there are so many people that wanted him
to beat Patrick Mahomes because then they can elevate him
to Oh, we got a new sheriff in town. This
is a rivalry that we want. No what we are
actually watching. We're not even watching Michael Jordan versus the NBA,
because there were plenty of really great players who won
(03:17):
on Michael Jordan's watch. You got Kareem Magic Bird, Shaq,
Kobe one, Tim Duncan won, Isaiah Thomas won.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
All of those dudes won.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
It's not just Ewing Barkley Stocking him alone that got
shut out. There were plenty of people that won during
Michael Jordan's whole entire run. What Patrick Mahomes is doing.
This ain't normal AFC Championship game. First year starting. If
it weren't for an off size penalty against Brady, he
(03:51):
would have won that and been in the Super Bowl
his first year. Starting next year, super Bowl win third
year goes to the Super Bowl again, Brady both tackles out,
loses AFC Championship game. You're five Super Bowl win, your
six Super Bowl win, You're seven. Now he's back in
the Super Bowl. If you want to win a championship
(04:12):
since Patrick Mahomes has been starting so for seven years,
you gotta go through Kansas City. We have never seen
a run like this in sports in the modern era,
Like we got to go back to like the Bill
the Bill Russell Celtics days, and we're in the era
of free agency. So to see this and people not
(04:35):
really be able to comprehend it and don't like it
and want to diminish it is incredible to me.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
That's the part that is that I don't understand.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
And but the reason that Josh Allen cannot beat Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Twofold, first of which is.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
The have you ever known some body who wants to
win so bad like that that they want that promotion,
they want that the life that they want, They want
to win that football game, and they leave no stone unturned.
So there is no part of me that believes that
Josh Allen is neither prepared, that he is not working enough,
(05:20):
that he's not watching enough film that he that none
of those things are the issue. Have you ever known
somebody that wants something so bad and e squeeze it
so tight like that their whole effort is directed at that,
but when it comes down to the actual execution, it
just doesn't. Like for some reason, they can't get over
(05:41):
the hump. It's always something in the way like that
that they're just sisipist pushing a rock up the hill
and then once they get damn near to the top,
it rolls back over. That's who Josh Allen is, and
it's because he wants it so bad and he doesn't
know how to relax in those moments and not care.
(06:02):
You're like, George, why would he need to not care.
Let's look at Kobe Bryant for example. Kobe Bryant under
Michael Jordan, any of the greats, Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes.
They understand the gravity of the moment, the gravity of
losing a championship, the gravity of it. But what they
(06:22):
do they don't care in that moment they are in
the zone they are playing. They're like, Okay, I'm not
gonna be concerned. Like they're not thinking, oh, should I
be conservative here? Should I go be aggressive. No, they
are reacting and playing because they have done all the preparation,
and at the end of the day, you're either gonna
win or you're gonna lose. If you're so worried about
(06:45):
the outcome in the moment or even in the preparation
to it, that gets you all tight. The greats, the
ones who execute when it matters the most, They understand
and do not care about the result until the result
is had. Because you're either gonna win or you're gonna lose.
There's two true outcomes. There's no ties allowed. And that's
(07:08):
the first reason. And because there's a lot of people
that are gonna point out that Josh Allen is zero
to four against Kansas City and that the Bills average
twenty eight points. You know, he's got a thirteen hundred yards,
eleven touchdowns, one interception, and that this Bill's defense is
giving up thirty eight, forty two, twenty seven and thirty two.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
But here is the truth.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
There are three to four plays a game that are
separating these dudes.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
That is it.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
This isn't some monumental gap, even though it feels like
a monumental gap. Prime example, I remember when my son
was so he's freshman in college now, and he was
a junior, I believe, and he was starting to get
scholarship offers and interest and all of that stuff. And
I remember telling him, I said, son, you have come
(07:59):
eighty five percent of the way on one hundred mile journey.
You've gone eighty five miles. But the last fifteen miles
that you're about to go to actually sign and go
to college and all of that stuff. And then obviously
it starts over them, but that that last fifteen miles
is going to be harder than the first eighty five
(08:21):
because this one straight up hill.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
The first eighty five was flat.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Yeah, there's some hills every now and then, but the
last fifteen straight up And that's what Josh Allen is
dealing with. And the second reason why is it has
nothing to do with him. It has to do with
he is just playing against the greatest quarterback that has
ever tied up shoes.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
That's it. That's it.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
And yes, there is the you know, the Bills was
the game plan right and everything else, But here is
the thing that just rubbed me the wrong way that
we have seen so many that like if you open
up your Twitter app, you open up TikTok whatever it is,
and there are so many people breaking down, Oh what
(09:04):
Josh Allen did wrong on that play where he threw
a ball to Dalton k and Kate that Dalton k
and Kate should have caught. They're like, oh, he should
have thrown the orbit. There is nothing more frustrating to
actual football players or actual basketball baseball players. When you
have somebody who may understand the game, know the game,
(09:24):
and you know and have a.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Good feel for it.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Try to tell you what somebody what Josh Allen should
have done when two unblocked defenders are coming and in
the heat, when they have no clue how hard it
is when you're leaning there to try to get the
ball back to the orbit. And he made a great
play to begin with. So here is the issue, and
(09:51):
this is going to sum up that play in because
people will come up with all the takes.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Here is the truth.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Spags the the Chiefs defensive coordinator won he was setting
that play up. He had that in his back pocket
because and they fool Josh Allen.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
When you watch the video, he looks to the left first.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
And the reason why he looks to the left first
is because he thinks he's protected on the right side
because he's not thinking that that Duffy for sure is
not going to blitz. He's thinking that something else over
here is going to trick him. This is why he's
looking over here. And then all of a sudden he
(10:37):
feels pressure and two unblocked defenders and he's like, oh, ish,
like I gotta do something here, and he made a play.
If dalkon kin k catches that ball, it's a whole
different story. But what does this mean for Josh Allen's legacy?
Is it worse off or better off than Lamar Jackson?
(11:00):
That's the question, because Lamar Jackson has been like the
last couple of weeks crucified on this app after losing
to Josh Allen on a drop pass that he hit him,
that he hit Mark Andrews writ in the stomach. Everybody's
breaking it down. Oh my gosh, the Lamar he just
(11:22):
oh paper MVP can't get it done, all of this stuff,
and I'm wondering, where is the same energy for Josh Allen. Now,
mind you, both things are actually stupid, right because people
act like that just because you are a great player,
that you are somehow entitled to a championship.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
They want this Pollyanna world.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Everybody gets a chance, you'll get a ring that There
are no happy endings for most people in sports. Your
happy ending is Josh Allen's contract and his life that
he gets to live, the all the accouterments that come
with it for being in longtime NFL quarterback, Buffalo legend,
(12:10):
everything that comes with it.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
That's your win. That's your happy ending.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Lamar Jackson may never get a title, bub Joe Burrow
may never get a title. Neither may Josh Allen. There
are no happy well, excuse me, there are very few
happy endings in sports. And people want that happy ending.
They're like, oh, you gotta get it done. No you don't.
(12:35):
It doesn't work that way. Just because you are a
special talent, that does not entitle you to a championship.
These things are earned, they are not given. And there
are three things that it takes to win a championship,
no matter how great you are. There's obviously talent, there
(12:56):
is health, and then there's luck. Those are the three
things that matter and your and your talent is obviously
one two help.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
Look at the Detroit Lions, health.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Absolutely derailed their season is it different if they're if
all their defensive players don't get hurt, probably, are they
in the in the Super Bowl?
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Probably? Or maybe that's the difference, and then you need
a little bit of luck.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
But how can we try to minimize what Lamar Jackson,
what Josh Allen, what Joe Burrow, what every team in
the AFC has been up against with Patrick Mahomes the
last three years with the Chiefs.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Oh damn, my god, Oh.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Hamstring crap ha ha oh hold on the old old
NFL issue. Doubt here moving the legs all right, So
what they've been up against is basically miss stake free football.
That's what the Chiefs have been playing, turnover free football
for basically three straight years.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
And people are wondering, oh, oh, I wonder why this
is so.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
The biggest determination between winning and losing in the NFL
is turnovers turnovers and when they turn the ball over
one time in three years in the playoffs, and people
were like, oh, it's the Raps. No, they do not
beat themselves. That's why Josh Allen can't win. Now, the
(14:38):
next question is, would you take Jalen Hurts or would
you take Jayden Daniels If you were starting an NFL
team right now.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
And those are your two options.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Because the narrative coming into the game on Saturday, well
Sunday was was that Jalen Hurts was the fourth best
quarterback left out of the four and he was the
player holding the Eagles back and what does he do
twenty for twenty eight two forty six touchdown and three
rushing touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
I mean that that was the narrative.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
And then about Jayden Daniels is that he might not
that he actually might be enough himself to overcome the
massive talent discrepancy between the two teams, and that he
was the most ready to play and everything else. But
here is what I will tell you. This is Jalen
(15:34):
hurts second super Bowl in five years in the NFL
five years. But you're telling me that you would take
a rookie over that. We're talking about a dude who
dresses like somebody's uncle. And he is a great leader,
great leader of the franchise. He controls his whiteouse, even
though that they even though the AJ Browns a little bit,
(15:54):
you know, you know, he's a malcontent at times. Keeps
that on the radar company. Man, everything that you need
to do that's what you got, but you want to
trade it for a lottery ticket. So if Jaden, I'm sorry,
If Jalen Hurts has been to the Super Bowl twice already, granted,
(16:17):
teams matter.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
I told you.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
There's luck, there is talent that are involved in winning
and losing. So how are you going to take a
guy in Jadeen Daniels As exquisite as this year was,
the sample size is so small, so small, and there's
(16:44):
a saying, if you can do it once, it's an accident,
you can do it twice.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
You can really do it.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
So jade Daniels got to prove that he can replicate
this season again. Dude, he's got to prove that he
can replicate it again before I'm willing to trade in
my Jalen Hurt stock for Jayden Daniels. Let me repeat
that for you. If you do it once, it's an accident.
(17:11):
If you do it twice, you can really do it.
So there is not a snowballs chance in hell I
am trading in my Jalen Hurt stock for Jaden Daniel stock.
At this point in time, I got a dude who's
lead me to Super Bowls regularly twice in five years.
But but there's questions, oh, oh my god, look at
(17:34):
sa Quon's carrying him.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
We sure do may throws. Do may throws?
Speaker 1 (17:44):
And the organization is doing a great job so and people,
oh well, it's got so much help. That's part of
winning Super Bowls. Yes, the organization has been good, getting
Saquon Barkley trade for aj Brown, and their defensive drafting
has been absolutely insane because all four defensive players that
they picked in twenty twenty four played at least sixteen games.
(18:08):
Come on, man, and the Giants they basically gave him
sakwon Barkley, So whose fault is that? Come on man,
And the fact that Nick Sirianni, their head coach, was
on the hot seat when this year started, is laughable.
The man has won what he went ninety eight the
(18:30):
first year or eight nine, then ends up eleven wins,
thirteen wins, fourteen win.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Like this is the guy you want to fire? Okay,
all right, all right.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Jobs would be safe and secure for a little bit
right now. And the commanders, yes, the future is bright,
but we know how the NFL works. It is set
up for you not to have long term success. So
who are you taking hopping the comments Jayden Daniels, or
are you taking Jalen Hurts right right now? Because I'm
(19:03):
taking the guy who's a little bit more underrated at
this point in time, even though his success has been shown.
All right, Next thing up, and you guys make sure
that you guys like subscribe get notifications because remember Unafraid
Show Daily Live is here Mondays and Wednesdays twelve thirty Pacific,
three thirty Eastern time, and then you have the College
(19:26):
Football Show on Tuesday, College Football Apostles on Thursday Boom,
and then on Sundays we got to College Football Show too.
We're going to get into our speaker series where we
are going to be traveling around talking to industry leaders
in college football, head coaches and everybody else in between.
So y'all stay on tap for that.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
All right.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
The next thing I wanted to talk about before we
get to the NFL hires and how NFL franchises have
no clue what they're looking for with their coaches. I
want to talk about what happened with LSU and South
Carolina in women's basketball.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
You're like, George, how does this matter? Well? Check this out?
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Stay stay with me here because this is an extension
of angel recent company at LSU and that rivalry with
Don Staley and everybody at South Carolina. So what happened
is is Friday, Don Staley in South Carolina gave Kim
Moki and LSU their first loss of the season, and
(20:26):
now Staley is five and zer against LSU, huge pay raise,
four million dollars a year, everything else. But here is
where the controversy happened is that after the game, the
in house DJ for South Carolina decided to play a
song called cut Friends, and the rapper's name was Camouflage
and that was and he played it well, it was played.
(20:48):
She played it right after the final buzzer sounded. Now
here's the issue though, because you're like a song the
how could the song have been that bad?
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Okay, here's the issue.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
The rapper his name was Camouflage Jason to kill Johnson,
and I say was because the dude was killed over
twenty years ago, Like, okay, why does that matter? Because
his daughter is LSU star Flage Johnson and he got
(21:19):
killed while Flage was still in her mother's womb. And
the DJ, known as DJTO is a female graduate of
South Carolina older like not not a young DJ and
essentially acknowledged on her personal Instagram that that was a
troll job. She got suspended for the game, but it
was Flage that called it out because I'm not sure
(21:41):
if anybody even knew that that that had happened. I
believe that this was one hundred percent out of bounds. However,
I was trying to think because I always try to
look at things from both points of view. So is
(22:02):
it possible that the DJ knew that that was Flage's
dad but didn't know that Flag's dad had died?
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Is that possible?
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Is it possible that yes, it was a I mean
because social media for teams and all of this stuff,
they trade jabs all the time. But the question is
where's the line? Where's the line? Because I saw this
as completely I'm like, ah, that was that was? That
(22:34):
was too much playing her dad's song. Had her dad
been alive, one hundred percent in bounds, one hundred percent
in bounds.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
I am here for it. I'm not mad.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
But the fact that the man had passed away and
that this is something that there is no doubt that
Flaj Johnson has been dealing with. I know this more
than anybody, probably well, very few people under standing this
like I understand this because my family, we have a
blended family. My oldest daughter, her dad passed away when
(23:09):
she was ten weeks old, ten weeks so I understand
how she feels about the absence of her father, her
biological father. So I can even imagine how Flaje feels
about this because I have been through it. I have
(23:30):
seen my daughter talk about it. We have extensive conversations
throughout the years about it. So I understand how this
could be extremely hurtful, and truthfully, a one game suspension
would probably not be enough for me. If if there
(23:51):
was any way to know for sure what was in
the DJ's art, if the DJ knew that the man
was dead, I need, if I'm flop J I need,
I want, I want to pound a flesh, to be
honest with you. But if the DJ didn't know, if
djt O didn't know, now I'm gonna offer a little
(24:14):
bit more more grace and now the world knows. So
that's that. What do you think should happen to the DJ?
Should the DJ have been fired? Or was this that
far out of bounds?
Speaker 2 (24:27):
All? Right?
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Next thing up, the NFL, the owners, they have no
idea what they want when it comes to hiring coaches.
And this is why you've had so much drama this
offseason when it have come to coaches. Now the Chicago
Bears and other teams, have they interviewed ump team candidates?
(24:50):
Like how are you interviewing like fifteen guys for your
head coaching that you even announced for your head coaching job?
Speaker 2 (24:56):
How other interview in nine ten? Well guys?
Speaker 1 (25:00):
So what has happened is what typically happens is when
they are looking for head coaches, they obviously, you know
the new hot shots in the league. You got Aaron Glenn,
you got Ben Johnson, They're all hot shotting around the league.
You know, feels good, and those names are always going
to be at the top of the list. But then
(25:21):
a lot of times these owners will hire search firms
to tab who the next coach should should be. But
the owners don't know what they really want because if
you are going to tab a search firm, you have
to give them better criteria or somebody.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
To help you.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
You can say, do I want an offensive coach? Do
I want a defensive coach? Do I want a players coach?
Do I want somebody who's been a head coach before.
What are the things that I'm actually looking for as
opposed to oh oh well, oh yeah, I resonate with
that guy right there, right right there. And this is
exactly the problem that there has been with the Rooney
rule in the NFL. It is not that like that.
(26:05):
Of course, there is inherent bias in people and all
of this stuff. I do not believe that this is
just for the majority of like I'm could there be
a racist owner, sure, right, but that for the most
part that this is just not overt in your face racism.
I believe that this comes down to people's personal bias.
(26:27):
And because if I sit down with somebody that I'm
interviewing to hire for the Unafraid Show, of course I'm
looking for competency on the on the resume, right, so
that's given, you know, once you pass the resume competency.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Now we get to talking.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Now as the boss, at some point in time, there's
somebody that I'm going to feel good about that I
resonate with, whether he reminds me of my son, my uncle, nephew,
my dad, like, something is going to strike where I
believe in this person. And this is the problem is
that there are so many NFL owners who are obviously
(27:11):
older that do not like what we heard about Mike
Tomlin when he interviewed outside of the Steelers.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
It's always a little two hip hop.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
Turns out, this is one of the best leaders of
coaches that we've had in the NFL in a very
long time. That this man is a ultimate leader. But
the owner didn't resonate with him like that, and that
is one hundred percent understandable. But the question is how
do you change those things because the owners have to
(27:40):
start getting a criteria for what they want, and this
is why you've had drama surrounding it.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
And one of the.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Drama situations was with Liam Cohen going to the Jaguars
from Tampa Bay because the dude signed five years at
twelve million dollars. That's a lot of money for Liam Cohen,
who was not It didn't feel like being sought out
and high prioritied by other teams in the NFL. So
(28:09):
here's how this drama goes. So the Bucks encouraged Cohen
to do a zoom interview, then they make him a
verbal offer to be the highest paid assistant in the NFL.
Cohen then agrees doesn't show up to sign his contract
because he actually went to do an in person interview
with the Jags. Dude snuck out the back door while
the parents are sleeping upstairs. And then the Jags were
(28:31):
afraid that the Bucks would make Cohen a promise to
be the head coach in Wadon, so they canceled their
interview with Robert Salah and told Cohen that he could
pick the new GM. Now, mind you, the Balki who
was the original Jags GM, He's not been on the
top of the list for other for coaches in terms
(28:52):
of the guy that they wanted to build the team with.
So then the Jags adventure like if it will will
fire a balt And then that's where things turn with Cohen.
Because Cohen he helped Baker Mayfield lead the league in touchdown passes.
He's gonna be The Bucks are gonna be on their
third OC in three years after firing Byron Leftwig and
then losing Dave Canalis to the Panthers, and now Todd
(29:16):
Bose is on an expiring contract. So this is a
whole another piece of drum and it's because the team
didn't really know what they wanted, and then they ended
up having to settle for Cohen, who may turn out
to be a great coach. And fans they want a
big shiny name, but big shiny names ain't always.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
It got to get good people.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
And then look a look at what Dallas did with
the what Jerry Jones did hiring Brian Schottenheimer.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
Could he be successful? Guest?
Speaker 1 (29:49):
But does this also look at look like the exact
same thing that Jerry Jones has been doing, hiring coaches
who he he's gonna be able to bully around and
still call all the shots with the team. Think about that,
because Brian Schottenhammer came to the Cowboys as a consultant
(30:11):
before he replaced Kellen Moore as offensive coordinator two years ago,
and you wanted to allegedly keep Mike McCarthy. So how
did this happen? How did this happen? I mean, but
just they think about this. The only other Dallas Cowboys
head coach to be hired without coaching experience was Dave Campo,
(30:33):
who was fifteen and thirty three from two thousand to
two thousand and two. I'm just saying, I mean, and
so Jerry Jones didn't know what he was doing. Now,
there is one team that I do feel like had
at least a real plan, and that's the Las Vegas Raiders.
(30:56):
They're trying to stabilize what's going on. Do I think
that they should have fired Antonio person No? Do I
think he had a fair chance.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Nope.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
But they hired Pete Carroll on a three year deal.
Dude has only had four losing seasons in his career,
and this is a move to stabilize the franchise. Because
Pete Carroll's seventy some years old.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
He ain't gonna be coaching that long.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
But if you can get three years of stability to
build up a program, build up a culture, and then
he either bounced and help you hire the new coach
or he stay around because he's having fun and y'all
are winning. That's the difference is that the Raiders wanted
(31:42):
Ben Johnson, then when they couldn't get him, they were like, nah, no, no,
We're going with Pete Carroll, which makes sense for a
team that's been relegating or to bottom feeding for two decades. Basically,
So you guys, let me know what you guys think.
How did the hires go? Who would you have hired
(32:02):
and I thank you for your time, I thank you
for your energy. This is the Unafraid Show, Come back tomorrow.
