Speaker 2 (00:14):
Ian.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
How's it going, buddy?
Speaker 4 (00:15):
What's going on? Guys? How are you?
Speaker 3 (00:17):
We're We're doing good.
Speaker 5 (00:19):
We were just sitting here talking about some of the
moves that have been made in the assistant coaching ranks
in the NFL one New York and one of course
in Las Vegas.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
A little bit of a little bit of a busy
couple of weeks.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Gosh right, it really has.
Speaker 5 (00:35):
So what I want to ask is, just as we
sit here today and Vance Joseph is the is obviously
the defensive coordinator here and has had a terrific year
in Denver, I mean, is he one of the names
you're hearing, like one of the primary names you would
hear that in the next cycle would get an interview
or two?
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Yeah, I mean I would say if I had to
guess right now, based well, and look, we'll see how
many jobs are open all that my guess. If he
gets a request from every place like, I think that's
the kind of candidate he is. Now, you know, who
knows who's going to get what job. That's that's hard.
Sometimes that's fit. Sometimes you know, there's a lot of
things up in the air. But my guess is he
(01:13):
gets probably all or most of the requests. I mean,
that's that's kind of where he's at. Like if you
were to say to me, like, who are the top
coordinators this year, he's for sure in the top five
and probably in the top three. So I don't you know,
we'll see how long he's in Denver. But these are
great problems to have, they really are. Yep.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Yeah, it's better to have that than I guess the
opposite issue. As we look at UH.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
At it, which, as we talked about, some other.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Teams have, yeah, very much, So look at it. Look
at the Raiders, UH.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Leading ship, Kelly go highest paid offensive coordinator didn't even
last a full year. Is Pete Carroll maybe one and
done there in in Vegas? Or is this about retooling
that offense and give it another shot?
Speaker 2 (01:55):
No, I would say this based on the situation. They
fired two coordinators. They're one of the worst teams in
the NFL. They have plenty of offensive dysfunction and general dysfunction.
It's possible. It's all possible. I don't know whether the
season is going to go. Maybe Greg Olsen, you know,
in his third stint as offensive coordinator interim offensive coordinator,
(02:16):
maybe it clicks and maybe they start winning some games
and it all looks better if I mean they, you know,
lost at home to one of the worst teams in
the NFL and look terrible doing it, like that's that's
not what you're had in mind. That's not how you
make progress. So you know, we'll see, but I would
not say it is going well, and I would think
everything is on the table for the Raiders.
Speaker 5 (02:36):
So ian at this point, if if you were to
list your top maybe top three, four, four five coach
of the Year candidates, what would that.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
List look like? Okay, so I would say, you know,
Shame Steichen would probably be on the list. I would say,
let me see who else. Sean Payton would probably be
on the list. You know, Kyle Shanahan would be another one.
Just given the injuries they've had, certainly that would that
(03:08):
would make a lot of sense.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Maybe Mike Rabel, Yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Think Mike Rabel would probably be on the list. To
Coach the Year is so hard because it's.
Speaker 6 (03:18):
Really like coach of the best job done versus the expectations. Yeah,
that's why I would say Saint sych And because it's
like no one expected the Colts to be good. But
like if you told me that Broncos would take like
a huge step forward, I'd be like, that makes sense.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
You know, if you said to me Rabel would get
the Patriots head in the right direction, I would say, like,
that makes sense. So it's a weird award. It's kind
of like comeback Player of the Year, honestly, puff For coaches,
it's like who does the best against the well expectations
that we previously had for them. That's why it's such
a strange award.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Well, talking to speaking the Broncos, the opponent on Sunday
Night football coming up Washington, jayde and Daniels back at practice.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Is there any chance that he's playing in that game?
Speaker 2 (04:01):
It doesn't seem so. He has not been cleared for contact.
And you know, like there are different situations we've had
this year where like, let's say a player you know
exceeds expectations and is ready quicker than you expected. Or
whatever it is. You know, when doctors get involved, that's
when gamesmanship kind of goes out the window, and that's
when it sort of gets real. Like with all that
(04:22):
Joe Burrow was doing this past week for the Bengals,
you know I and I was reporting on a lot
of it. Sources kept saying to me, this, he's doing great,
it's awesome. He looks like Joe Burrow. The doctors just
need to clear him. And when you hear that, you
pump the brakes. Same thing with Aaron Rodgers. You know,
I knew Saturday night that he wanted to play, was
dying to play, and then he still hadn't received clearance,
(04:45):
And I'm like, probably not playing right, And so I
would say, Jade and Daniel same thing. It's not been
clear for contact. You know, that's generally an indication that
he's probably not playing ty.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Would he rap a board at raps sheet on Twitter?
Speaker 1 (04:57):
Last one for me, Ian, you know you we're talking about,
you know, quarterbacks that weren't being clear you, Aaron Rodgers
and all that.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Shnoor Sanders getting the start.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Again this week for Cleveland, even though Dylan Gabriel was
theoretically clear. Is this more an indictment of you know
what Gabriel hasn't been able to do todate or is
this just want to get another look at your door
or something else?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Yeah, I think it's wanting to get another look at
shootou because like the reality is, with all due respect
to the Browns, like it doesn't matter, you know, like
if you win five games or four games that who cares, right,
you're gonna get a good draft pick, You're gonna be
in a position for a quarterback, doesn't matter. You'd like
to learn these seasons where you're like it's sort of
like a lost season, like you'd like to learn, And
so being Shador lots them learn as much as possible.
(05:37):
They saw two months of Dylan Gabriel, who you know,
has not proven that he can be a viable long
time start in the NFL, which you know, we've learned
a million times that you know, what could happen six
years from now who knows right but now right now,
which is okay. I think they'd like to know more.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
Like Shador has something where you'd like to see him
under the lights, Like I always remember, you know, when
I covered Nick Saban and Alabama, you would always say,
you really don't know anything until the lights come.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
On, and should her a little bit. Seems like a
player who's who who gets better when the lights get brighter,
And so I think they'd like to see more of that.
And I'm like, I'm kind of enjoying this, to be
totally honest. The craziness everyone, you know, it reminds me
of you guys, know this one reminds me of TVO. Yeah. No,
I totally get that audition and I know for sure
they're right. It's been really fascinating.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Yeah, that's one of those one of those great ones
that that maybe keeps fans divided and arguing on the
internet for for years to come.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
You and I appreciate it as always, Buddy, Okay, thanks guys,
