Reaction to 49ers & Aiyuk ongoing battle, Dallas Cowboys pay CeeDee Lamb | Richard Sherman NFL

welcome to the new YouTube channel if you haven't already done it hit the Subscribe button to follow us all season long for updates and content so happy that you're here it's going to be a great year welcome back to yet another Richard Sherman podcast and first off ladies and gentlemen I just want to say thank you guys for all the subscriptions for following for watching our videos we' like to have a good time on here and we're going to have an outstanding season but Mitchell CD lamb $34 million a year Mitchell and as the person who said he wasn't a receiver number one he deserved every penny based off his performance last year and the year before he's their go-to guy the most Targets in the league I believe or right up there right one or two had a great season been phenomenally consistent for the for the Dallas Cowboys but people wonder why it's taking so long to pay these receivers and why why are why is this such an odd year and so many receivers holding out and so many receivers holding in and and what's the deal Mitchell and the same is true with with your boy Jamar Chase Jamar Chase one of the top receivers in the National Football League he wants to get paid like his LSU Brethren Justin Jefferson I mean that was a lot of money in that room at LSU Mitchell there was a lot of money in that room at LSU and Odell was throwing around a lot of money before they got paid too so Richard let's start with CD lamb though because as you mentioned last year this time you weren't his fan you know you didn't like him you said I don't dislike him I know you didn't dislike him as a human being but you said this this guy's not a wide receiver one I think he proved a lot of people wrong last year he's become one of the faces of the franchise in Dallas and they paid him as such Jerry Jones finally has to bite the bullet and pay this man Richard you got to talk a little bit more in depth about this wide receiving Market because to me these numbers have become so extrapolated I mean you got guys getting paid mid-30s now when it seemed like a couple years ago 20 million was top in and we thought that was a ton of money this is blowing that out of the water yeah mitro usually the the markets grow with the cap pretty consistently and it's usually percentages of the cap and and the league will never outright say it the owners will never outright say it but that's how they always systematically did it it'd be you know corners and receivers are right around 10 to 12% of the cap depending on which one it is what year it is sometimes a little higher sometimes a little lower quarterbacks are right between 17 and 20% of the cap higher or lower whatever I mean those numbers probably still just about they're still just about even but the receiver market and the corner market are usually married right around1 or2 million difference top receivers getting 20 the top corners probably getting 18 and then one day I don't know when it was I don't I think maybe Devonte or or Tyreek they broke it they broke the system you know one of those teams broke it in the corner receiver Market the gap between them just became tremendous I think the top Corner may be right around 21 million right now the top receivers at 35 it's never been a $14 million gap and that's the problem with the league right now Mitchell because if you ask any GM you ask any team you ask probably a casual fan the importance of each position when it comes to a football team if you're building a roster and you said who you picking first you go with your quarterback first so that's why they get paid the most then it's a debate if you're offensive guy you say left tackle if you're defensive guy you say d end or corner you know get to the quarterback things like that but you never say receiver I don't think anybody's building their team receiver first and no offense to the receivers they're doing a great job and hey it's it's their world we just living in it they they should be taking advantage as they are um but that's what's wrong with the market right now when receivers are getting paid more than left tackles then then the the algorithm is off mitro the team building algorithm is off and there needs to be a correction and I don't know when it's going to happen because for all intents and purposes the receivers are going to continue to push the market as they should and just like Trent Williams is looking at that he's looking at these receivers like you mean 35 million for a receiver I'm a left tackle and you telling me 28 29 million like no I want 35 rightfully so because the most valuable position it's it's a changer like receivers can get hurt and you can find a guy comparable you know maybe not top guys like Justin Jefferson and and Tyreek you know what I mean but you can find usually find a guy that can be productive and keep your offense going you know I mean you look at the Kansas City Chiefs last year what $30 million receiver did they have when they want it and that's back to back they don't got I don't think they've had a $30 million receiver when they've won it and not to say you can't do it that way but it's just rare it's rare to see a team do it with a receiver as your one of your highest paid guys um in this new day and age because it's such a it's such a a disproportionate number right now that it's getting ridiculous and that's why it's harder I caught this three years ago that Jamar Chase was going to have a hard time getting paid Mitchell I said it I remember it's still true because Mike Brown is not paying guys he had to bite the bullet and I'm sure he begrudgingly paid Joe burrow not because Joe Burl isn't talented and isn't a franchise quarterback or hasn't performed to deserve the money he has because Mike Brown doesn't want to pay anybody Mitchell he he literally wants to have 35 men roster if he could and have a couple guys playing both sides of the football I'm not saying I heard it out of his own mouth I'm not saying I've sat in meetings and heard him say things like that but that's the mindset they're dealing with so when it comes to paying a receiver 35 million because Jamar Chase has a has a great case to say hey Justin Jefferson got it my LSU Brethren got it I need the same thing he has a great case to say that he's been very consistent been Dynamic arguably one of the top receivers if not the top receiver in the National Football League but it's changing the way teams are building you used to pay Corners top money now Corners are looking at receivers like how is how are receivers getting 14 million more than us that doesn't that doesn't sound right and I don't know what's going to correct it but a correction has to come and it has to come soon so with the Brandon iuk situation it's only making matters worse in San Francisco because you really don't have to do anything but it's going to challenge a lot of things because as he sits on the sideline it's much easier when a guy's removed if a guy's removed and you're at home and you're chilling and the team doesn't see you it's it's cool you know what I mean you you can you can you can kind of get away with it the team's not seeing you like like man I hope he gets his money but it is what it is but when you're in inside the building and you're doing what you're supposed to be doing working out treatment staying in shape guys are seeing you just human nature kind of kicks in and you're like well if they start losing it becomes an issue if they're winning mitro it doesn't become an issue at all for anybody but ba but if they start losing I I would I would guess some conversation start to happen and I I you know ba starts to get leverage at that point but this is still a league where guys care about winning especially a team like that where the championship window is potentially closing because of these deals and because of the deals coming up and money you got to pay Trent more maybe you can manipulate that and move the third year to the second to the first guaranteed two years or something to get him to appease him and get him back in the building but they don't get Trent Williams paid the wheels the wheels are they're not off the the the the car mital but they're rattling they're rattling we had the appetizer last week now it's time to Feast college football is back

little bit on this wide receiver Market I got a little conspiracy theory you talked a little bit about the new era of conspiracies Rich this new era of the NFL uh one that when you played it was kind of trending that way but it seems that the NFL has given so much leeway to offensive players we've seen it with all the rule changes with the the pass interference calls we've seen it with the new hip drop rule we saw it firsthand Richard IND Detroit in the NFL draft when I think 80% of the first round picks were offensive players I mean you saw guys cornerbacks Top Flight to quarterbacks slipping and sliding all the way down my team the Detroit Lions one of the beneficiaries of that terion Arnold widely considered a top 12 top 15 Talent slides all the way to 24 Richard is this more that the wide receivers are that much more valuable or is it just that the league has changed the way the game is played so much to make offensive players that much more valuable they are not Mitchell because the game has not changed very much I mean other than those rules and they're they're getting worse every year but they haven't changed the value of the receiver position but you know what has these guy these receivers are showcasing when they get the spotlight and you got to give a lot of credit for Odell Beckham Jr not that he was the first one you know there were many Great Hall of Fame showman before Odell Beckham Jr but he brought another microscope to the position and then you got to give guys like Justin Jefferson Jamar Chase um Debo Samuels Brandon auk you know they're out there Aman raain Brown when they get the spotlight they're they're doing all the Tik Tock dances they're doing all the hip Trends and influencing these kids in a big way and that's the NFL's Market that's a big part of the market and they're having a well let's they're having a huge impact nationally and potentially globally especially for this game so they're at the Forefront of of these Madden covers of the Billboards of the NFL of the highlight tape whenever the NFL makes a video you see Justin Jefferson doing the gritty you see these receivers scoring touchdowns celebrating you know they're doing the Slime when it gets a first down things like that Mitchell that showcases these guys so outside marketing wise is phenomenal for those guys but it hasn't the game hasn't changed enough for one single receiver to be this much more valuable than than I mean they're putting the same value on it as a DN or a guy who can wreck a game you know there there aren't very many receivers that could just wreck a game out there right now they can be they can have great games I mean you've seen receivers go for 200 Tyreek goes off you know and have but we also saw those receivers get stopped we saw leria sne have his way with Tyreek Hill and Kansas City in the playoffs when it needs to happen when when you got to have it so it's not like these guys are like hey you get a great receiver Super Bowl no that's still the quarterback position and still only one quarterback that's consistently getting there so I don't know what's what's going to correct it and it's not it's not going to happen right now so guys are going to continue but Trent Williams is trying to do for the tackle Market what Devonte Adams and Tyreek heel did for the receiver Market he's trying to jump started above that $30 million barrier and I think he's going to be able to do it and rightfully so absolutely rightfully so well when you overpay I don't want to overpay when you pay a wide receiver this amount of money there's sacrifices that have got to be made on the other side of the roster and the quarterback Market this kind of leads us into the quarterback Market which has become more and more inflated as the years go on as the cap space continues to grow to think that these guys would be getting 50 million plus when we saw Daniel Jones signed for 40 million the other year you're like wait that Daniel Jones is this somebody else is someone I'm unaware of that Daniel Jones got 40 million bucks but but now the Cowboys have paid $136 million of CD lamb they're trying to figure out Michael Parsons and they got this lingering huge issue with Dak Prescott becoming a free agency next year Richard after seeing all these guys Trevor Lawrence Jordan love Tua everyone getting paid Jared goth like if you're Jerry Jones Richard how the hell do you handle this situ a well you don't have much of a choice if you're Jerry Jones this is the good and bad thing about homegrown talent that play at an all proo level you don't really got a choice just like he didn't have a choice with CD and CD knew that and his agency knew that it's pretty obvious what you gonna do without me what you you've backed yourself in a corner and I'm happy to push you even further into that corner you have to pay me and so with Dak Prescott got seeing Trevor Lawrence get 55 Trevor Lawrence what do Trevor Lawrence W Trevor Lawrence has a one and 18 record Mitchell when his defense doesn't cause a turnover I'm not going here nor there I'm just being totally objective about it that's tough that's a tough stat now when you start to hear whispers about hey it's the coach's fault at first it was hey Urban Meyers solved the pro Urban Meyer was the problem and Trevor Lawrence just needed a coach like Doug Peterson to get him back on to put him on the right track now they're kind of starting to whisper Doug Peterson's the problem and that's when you start to scratch your head Mitchell you start to look at common denominators and and I'm not a math math major but it's starting to to to look like that's a bit of an overpay but now he's up there with the top paid quarterback so now you're putting him in conversations with Josh Allen Joe burrow and then you have to ask yourself is it are these the same kind of guys and I don't think you're answering that and so when Dak Prescot when Dak Prescott comes to the table he's gonna say Trevor Lawrence got 55 million a year I was the second Team all pro last year I'm Trevor Lawrence is debatably a top 10 quarterback and he's getting top one top two money and so when you start to have those conversations you're going to say hey I'm not arguing Jared G's money because Jared G took his team to the NFC Championship he's playing at a really high level I'm not arguing Kirk Cousins money he's he he deserves the money he's been productive for a really long time you can argue burrow money Josh Allen Etc even Tu a Tong of vioa but you can't argue with him because there are at least probably 10 12 teams that would take him and start day one and they pay him $60 million and not B an eyelash because the quarterback position is so important to this game right now and so I don't know Mitchell Jordan love just got a lot of money he got 55 a year with with with a very short resume and you got to take you got to give him all the credit in the world because again I didn't think the Green Bay Packers could strike gold three times in a row and it looks like for all intents and purposes they have and they paid for it and so if he but it's a very very short window that that you've had to to Really diagnose and and observe GE in love and say h we're going to make a decision to give him $55 million a year and now we'll see we'll see how that affects the rest of the team because the reason it's San Francisco 49ers are able to do what they're able to do because they got a seventh round pick on a rookie contract that will change dramatically soon and again that's when that's when the unfortunate cuts and trades and renegotiations and and and it's starting to be magic and that's where Prague is going to have to earn his money uh and John Lynch they're going to have to earn their money trying to figure out those puzzle pieces that's why they're in a win Now must-win situation uh but we'll see I I just I don't know if he has a Cho choice because Michael Parsons is going to get that money he's got three First Team all Pros in his first what four years Mitchell that agent is walking up to that negotiation table saying hey a couple million more than bosar we don't even have a conversation right and how do you pay the three of them I I don't know if it's doable I mean one of these guys might be on the trading block and it's certainly not going to be Dak Prescott so decisions are going to be had to be made and and we talked about it last podcast this is what happens when you wait you pay a guy a year earlier you know you don't have to worry about this stuff as much that's why I love my guy Brad Holmes He Saw Penny Su you know he's still got another year on his rookie deal after this one hey we're gonna pay him now we're gonna take care of him now and guess what what he was was the number one paid tackle in football not any longer anymore Tristan wors now is and then like you just said you wait till Trump Williams gets paid because that number is going to probably go up three four million Brad Holmes is going to look like a Flatout genius um 100% football season is here and game time has you covered

just got named the starting quarterback in Pittsburgh the Pittsburgh Steelers Russell Wilson There was a camp battle going on between him and and Justin Fields you talked about it do you think this is the right move for the Steelers Mike Tomlin a Super Bowl winning coach going with a Super Bowl winning quarterback I don't think there was ever a battle um because in a situation where there's a battle I don't think it happens this way because Russell only played sparingly in the preseason I I want to say he missed a whole week of training camp in the QB battle person that misses a week of training camp usually is is against the ab ball and is going to have a hard time winning that battle but when it's not a quarterback battle that person's not worried about that I always thought tomlin's a fantastic coach never had a losing season one of the greatest coaches national football history National Football League history and you can argue with your grandma or somebody but I don't think he was going to go into the season with with an unknown you know whatever people may say good or bad about Russell Wilson I think he had a solid season last year um only played 15 games I think he had 23 touchdowns only eight interceptions I think he had a really solid season yards probably weren't there the yards per attempt weren't there but in the chaotic situation that he was in in Denver I think he made the best of it and he was able to put a solid product out there so I don't think you're gonna if you're Tomlin you're going to go with the unknown you got to hit at least give him a chance now if things are shaky for the first four games you know they start off you know one and three or are are one and four or something like that then I think you know the the noise to make a change obviously Tomlin has never had a losing season so you you'd start hearing that that noise gets loud get louder and louder but I don't think that's going to be the case I think he's the reason he's never had a losing season because he knows the formula that it takes to win football games and that formula is good defense run the football limit the mistakes from the quarterback and I think that's why they went and got Russell Wilson because he's not going to make a ton of mistakes he's not going to turn the ball over they don't need to pass it 25 35 times a game and so they'll they'll probably throw it 20 times 22 times a game they'll run it 35 40 times and they'll get out of these games they'll cause some chaos defensively with the old school Superstars cam Hayward TJ watt uh and the boys and and they'll continue to be a really good ball club and have a winning season so uh I don't know what what what will happen throughout the season but I know that Tomlin doesn't lose losing seasons and I'm not going to bank on him doing it now I don't see it either I mean Richard he took this team to the playoffs with I'm gonna rattle off these quarterbacks here and probably create a State of shock for you but can he pick it and yes my name sake Mitchell trabis uh took this guys these guys to the playoffs last year I mean you look at the Steelers schedule opening up with Russell starting and they play at the Falcons look like a tough team the Broncos will see the Chargers the Colts I mean those four games are all winnable I mean what is it going to take in your eyes for this team to move over to Justin Fields because I would think they want to at least take a look at him as their starter seeing that you know hey they might be able to get somebody at at a discount that they can keep long term unlike Russell Richard when does when does this change when do you see them giving him that shot well I only see it if they lose you know two three games in a row early on and I don't I don't know if I see that just because of tomlin's History more than I think it's something to do with Russell Wilson um and those games are are winnable Atlanta looks really good obviously they just um signed Justin Simmons uh they made a trade they they Kirk Cousins is gonna make Drake London and Kyle Pitts look better than they ever have I think that's going to be really cool but John Robinson looked really good in his first year he'll continue that growth I believe as as a playmaker um and so that'll be tough you know Denver you know Sean pyton will be on his prove it tour um and I'm sure Russell will be on his prove it tour like who who was right who was wrong in this situation and I think um that's going to be these games I I I wouldn't put anything past the Colts because they always seem to be a hard out for people and they'll do things the right way so but I don't I don't think I don't think Justin field showed enough in the preseason for them to go out and say all right man we're going to start him over Russell obviously it was clear and obvious what we're doing what he was able to do he's clear and obviously the better quarterback he's a great athlete and I'm sure they'll put packages in for him to to get him out on the field put the ball in his hands let him make some plays but I can't see them pulling Russell uh unless the wheels just absolutely fall off and tomlin's not going to let that happen yeah well we shall see another quarter back I want to talk a little bit about Josh Allen with the bills he was just named the most overrated QB by the NFL players I personally find that hard to believe I mean he won me my fantasy league last year Rich what what do you think of joshh Allen would you term him overrated no no I wouldn't ter term him overrated um he hasn't won the playoffs a ton he has the same stigma everybody else does but I don't think it's any fault of his own I think he's averaging 70% completion percentage 300 yards and not a a great number of turnovers in the playoffs so I wouldn't say I would call him overrated by any stretch I think he's one of the best quarterbacks in the National Football League and he's played that way so to call him overrated just seems uneducated and uninformed or hater uh because he let the league in in touchdown total touchdowns last year with like think 41 or 42 uh and he's and he's just really played at a high level even in the playoffs he he's just run into people that are better he's running into better teams better quarterbacks Joe Burrow's got him a couple times Mahomes gets him just about every time and you thought maybe it'll be this different this year it's January they're in Buffalo but he's just you know just can't get past him all right let's talk about your Niners Rich we we kind of touched on it a little bit but I want to take a deeper dive here like what level of worry do you have right now over this Brandon iuk situation because as an Outsiders perspective it's seems like it's a tremendously huge deal the fact that this could linger into week one you got to worry about paying him big bucks and then the back end of that you gotta worry about Trent Williams and Brock pie where does this dust all settle in San Francisco my worry level was at the beginning of training camp was probably at like a four I just trust John Lynch I trust Kyle I trust they've had a great organization but it goes back to your point the front office gambled and they Gam gble and this is the gamble that front offices take sometimes that sometimes it pays off sometimes it doesn't and you don't ever ever ever want to wish injury or think injury on a player but these front offices they got to let it play out just in case you know that just in case hey something happens you get a you get a knee injury you get an ankle injury then that price goes down substantially then we're negotiating from a whole different space but that's the risk you take when you wait you could go earlier and maybe get him for 25 and and everybody's happy hey we got him in year three for 25 you're not thinking hey he's going to cost 33 in year five you know what I mean right but I think they should have went early on him I think they should have went early on on Bosa I think they should have went early on a number of guys and and got those prices down but I mean we are here now so I'm concerned more about Trent Williams and I am Brandon hayuk because I think at least they're having conversations you know just a human nature element of it I think they'll be able to come to some sort of deal but Trent Williams is much more important to this offense not that ba isn't a tremendous asset and tremendously important in a in a foundational piece but that left tackle you could see it in the preseason I mean you don't want your starting quarterback getting hit I think I saw a drive I mean I saw one game where Brock dropped back 14 times and he got hit nine of them this is the preseason guys aren't running anything exotic they're not running any crazy pressures nothing that should confuse the offensive line but when you're missing such a huge the best left tackle in football it's going to show and and they're oine is designed to slide away from him let him take the hard job and everybody else hey we're blocking him by committee cool got that when you can't do that it exposes colon mckivitz a little bit it exposed you know it exposed a lot of things it Expos some some deficiencies uh within their offensive line and I think again it helps Trent case because he's like look I'll see what it could be without me do you really want to sign up for that because I'm not showing up until you give me what I'm asking for and I have no idea I have no idea what he's asking for I would guess it's 30 plus million um and I I would guess they find a way to get that done because if they start the season without him and and even then once he comes Mitchell he's a vet vet so not worried about Trent if I'm being honest I'm not I'm I'm not worried about him coming in out of shape or having to adjust or anything like that but there's that aspect well if memory serves me right wasn't Trent Williams out for that three-game losing streak last year that the Niners won on I I mean Richard this guy's value to this team I mean he might be the most valuable player for the San Francisco 49ers and and to say that about a left tackle might shock some people but he is that good and when he's not on the field it's no noticeable so the ners I think John Lynch has made one mistake over the last couple years maybe a couple maybe not paying these guys early but the biggest mistake I think he made was a contract for Javon Hargrave because that contract right there caused them to lose to Forest Buckner you know and now they got this Brandon iuk situation going on if you don't pay that guy and roll with who you got things might be a little bit different in San Francisco but hindsight is always 2020 rich and we'll see what happens from here but let's go a little bit further north Richard to your Homeland Seattle um I know you stopped by training camp for a little bit the Seahawks look pretty darn good in that last game they let they let the big dogs eat a little bit you saw DK get in the endzone you saw jsn do his thing like Richard what what are your thoughts about Seattle because they've kind of been a dark horse you know not I don't know what teams expect out of them this year is Seattle legitimate contender in the NFC West no question no question about it they're legitimate and I think it's they're poised to have a really great season and and obviously I think they make the playoffs uh because they were built well to begin with you know they have the receiving core that's explosive they have the explosive back in K9 they got a really solid offensive line that was really beat up last year both tackles were injured um I think Lucas is still on the shelf for a couple uh couple weeks um but they brought in uh George F to to help with that transition Charles cross is healthy again and he looks really good uh big monster of a man I think that's going to be good Gino looks as good as he's ever been if you keep him up upright and protected he's as good as anybody right now you can talk about his history and whatever I don't really care about that since he's been in Seattle and he's been the starter he's been really good most of the time now he's had moments where he struggled because they can't keep him upright nobody does well you getting hit in the face um every day you lose both to that's going to be tough on anybody on the other side of the ball I think is where they're going to take their greatest leap is because they built this defensive line and it had me scratching my head for a while Mitchell because I was sitting there like okay y'all are stockpiling a lot of defensive line men right now you got jiren Reed you got Leonard Williams you got Byron Murphy who you just took in the first round U and you're like all right that's a lot you still got you still got Boyer MAF on the edge you just traded for a linebacker to play Edge for you um who am I missing I'm missu who was out unfortunately nosu is out for the first four games but he was probably their best pass rusher and was probably going to benefit the most I I think jiren Reed is probably gonna benefit the most but he's up there and I think Byron Murphy is perfect for this system um and if you just talk about Justin matab matab from last year in Baltimore had a career year I think he had more than three sacks before Mike McDonald came in and changed that system and then he comes in and has I think 12 or 13 career year and that's crazy that's Aaron Donald numbers for a defensive tackle um and so that was really impressive but that that just goes to show what Mike McDonald likes um and a d lineman and his D lineman and they have such tremendous dep that's what's going to help him you got a lot more than the dline too rich you got a Wither spoon the kid was a stud last year I mean he's got that aggression I know you can speak a heck of a lot better out than I can towards cornerback play but goodness he's aggressive and then you got Tyreek Woolen fastest can be I mean Richard to me the Seahawks are a Darkhorse uh Contender there's always that team that rises out of nowhere and I think the Seahawks could be that this year no question I think the secondary is as good as anybody I think Tariq Woolen is set for a career year at the corner um I think Devon Witherspoon has been everything they could have imagine it more uh you just listen to Mike McDonald he glows when talking about him um they're really Dynamic they're playing fast they're playing confident my concern is that the linebacker um not not the down linebackers that they have but but the the guy the standup linebackers uh it's just a lot of unknowns there but in terms of the secondary and the corner Play It's been as good as ever um feel terrible for Arty Burns had an ACL injury in a preseason non-con contact you know it just didn't look like anything really happened on the play and you know he was having a really good training camp really really poised to make a big difference for this team and so he's out and that's a huge blow to that defense and I don't think enough people are talking about that and then you got Jordan love out there he's goingon to make a he's going to be really great Kobe Bryant moved to safety that transition is going really well um and so it's going to be fun to watch it's going to be fun and you just can see the amount of pride when I spoke to the team that's what I impressed upon them that that that I really liked when watching them is just the amount of pride every level you know even when the twos and threes come in they they take pride in getting stops getting the ball getting off the field getting three and outs uh making a difference making tackles and I just I just think that had slowly been sliding away over the last couple years but Mike's brought it back and uh and I'm excited and now was them running all vanilla stuff they weren't running anything crazy nothing exotic so when they really they they got your boy bone Knicks and Denver coming into town first week I think it's going to be a lot for a rookie quarterback to deal with the noise in Seattle the fans are passionate they're excited about a new change and a new team and the energy it's going to be tough for a rookie to come in here and get a win I want to discuss one last topic before we wrap here Rich the New York Jets right this is Aaron Rogers finally gets his moment after whatever it was five plays last year going down with the Achilles injury there's so much hype around this team I mean you see so many reports coming out that you know they're one of the top five rosters in football a lot of people are picking them to to go to the NFC or AFC Championship game like what are your true expectations of Aaron Rogers and the Jets is it is it just hype or is this is this more realistic it's definitely realistic I mean if you just look at the defense last year in the last couple years they've been really good that's why you've hate that that they're getting wasted you know I hate when great defense just gets wasted because of bad quarterback play or bad offensive play or injuries on the offensive side because they deserve to go in playoffs with how hard and how well they were playing against some of the top offenses because they got to deal with Miami and all their speed and Mike McDaniel's Dynamic play calling and buffalo with Josh Allen and everything stefhon Diggs was bringing before they got rid of him and so I I'm really excited for him I hope it pans out exactly like they just because Sal is a great dude a great coach they deserve it their fans deserve it they've been in a drought for a long time and I hope he goes out there and you know for everything Aaron Rogers is off the field and all the controversy and you know all the on that field he's still a savant he's still a problem and he's still an issue and he's still one of the greatest players to ever strap up cleats in the National Football League or any other Football League uh and so you give him all the respect in the world his teammates love him and I'm excited for Garrett Wilson to have his breakout gear after what he's had to deal with um even Lazar I'm sure he's excited for for to be back they're gonna have a tough tough first game going to San Francisco to Santa Clara Aaron has just not historically played well against the San Francisco 49ers you don't say rich but maybe that changes but um I think you got an interception ball in your house that uh that speaks to that a little bit that speaks to that yeah was a couple couple um games where the score was double digits uh but yeah it's it's it's really a great roster but they just got to put it all together on this season you know this is this is the Allin season they've had good season they've been a food story everybody's felt bad for the tackle situation I think they lost four or five tackles last year both on the right and left side um so I hope everything comes together and they can just get in the playoffs and make noise and just play to the to the standard and and and play to their potential you know that'd be fun to see no question well Richard next week I I I could not be more pumped up man
