to the fantasy footballers podcast with your host, Andy Holloway, Jason Moore, and Mike Wright.
Oh, welcome in.
Andy Mike and Jason, the fantasy footballers, back with you.
Andy is tickled.
Well, I just, if we hit the button where, you know, Al Borland, the producer extraordinaire,
he's just like, it's like, are we ready to go?
Let's go.
Let's get the show started.
And then he just throws back a meat start.
stick. I just
He made me laugh.
Currently chewing.
How are you doing, owl?
Doing great.
You waited
till that moment? He waited till that moment.
That's why it was funny to me.
I think Josh, Papa Josh has set a precedent
that you can eat a meat stick anytime.
Typically, we've got like 30 seconds
at the top of the show before anything is thrown
our way. Oh, so you thought I wouldn't
throw to you. I thought it was my window.
You know, you could, your window
could also be before. Yeah, you've had a
window of like hours. Oh man. Too busy getting ready for this awesome show.
Ah, okay. Nice save. Tuesday, March 17th. Jason Moore is here.
Happy to be back. Back in the building. You didn't miss nothing. Yeah. Anything happened in the NFL
while I was going? All of Mike's dreams came true with Ken Walker. Some. Some.
Romeo Dobbs. All of his dreams were shattered with Trey Benson and Vince in it.
That's the total TLDR. The big dreams worked out.
Yeah.
The smaller dreams is not as much.
You have to sacrifice.
We know that CMC, he had to drain the lifeblood of all of his teammates.
And I get like, Trey Benson, I guess if that's how it has to go for Ken Walker to fly.
Right.
Yeah.
Sorry, buddy.
You're going to take that deal.
Sorry, my guy.
Get your applications out there.
A lot of sacrifice.
Welcome in, one and all.
We have a very important episode today.
It is our coaching changes episode.
We're going to talk through kind of zoom out a little bit, talk through all of the,
big hires and changes. It'll give us another chance to
talk about the Cardinals for a second.
Jason, I just hate them. I'm so
happy to hear that, man.
They just hate them. I just hate them. I just hate them. I don't have a
care of the world. Hate them from the top down.
Mike is just living in some sort of, they can study this in books
what he's doing to his mind. Nah, we're good, man. So who's your team in
2026, Mike? Don't have one. Okay. Don't need one. Okay, new approach. Don't need one.
Actually, no, correction. Borrow's
McLeon. Ah, his fantasy team.
That is one of the helpful
things, and everyone out there can know this,
especially those that are fans of the Cardinals,
the Browns, the Jets,
the Falcons. Yes, I'm including the Falcons
now. Aw.
The Raiders. If you're a fan of
those teams, you always have your fantasy team to
distract you. It is a massive difference since
I started playing fantasy.
10, 15 years ago. My days were ruined
by the Cardinals. Now I do.
I hide behind my fantasy team.
Now your days are ruined by your fantasy team.
Yeah, that's fair.
It's way better.
But yeah, we got a big important episode today.
We do have some news to catch you up on stuff we haven't had a chance on the show to talk about yet.
And we'll get right to it.
Ultimate draft kit.com if you want the UDK pre-order, the Dynasty Pass.
You want to check that out.
Lowest possible price right now at Ultimate draftkit.com.
I do not believe we're including any complimentary meatsticks in the UDK this year,
although we will consider that.
as long as Al pays for him.
Into the news we go.
News and notes from around the league.
Well, we have not had the chance on the show to talk about the signing of Kyler Murray.
Mike and I had the Thursday show.
I think we inferred that, you know, we knew that Kyler was traveling.
It was the most probable situation.
So it ends up being a one-year deal that includes a no-tag clause,
so they can't, like, start him and do well and then tag him for next year.
They'd have to sign him to a contract.
I was smart by Murray's care.
Very, very smart because that's exactly what I would do if I was the Vikings.
Yes.
Get a great year out of them and then be like, ha-ha.
Gotcha.
Well, I bet they wish they had done that with Sam Darnel.
Sure.
In hindsight.
But the Vikings, all of the public comments, all of the Kevin O'Connell discussions,
all of the perspective they want us to adopt is that J.J. McCarthy and Kyler Murray
will have the opportunity to equally compete.
for the starting job, which I think is true, is-ish.
Yeah, no, it's the opportunity is there.
The ability is not really a competition.
It's like when Papa Josh and the Falcon did the foot race thing, it's like you have a
right.
Yeah, exactly.
Both of you have the chance to win, but.
But one of you turns out so slow.
Very slow.
So really an open competition.
We'll let you figure out who that was.
Well, I mean, we would all assume it's Papa Josh.
Because of the age?
Because he's so old.
Right.
It's not.
And he won.
It's not.
Just remember, there is a chance.
It's very small.
There is a chance Kyle loses the competition.
How would that make you feel?
Mike, it would be happy.
I'd be very happy.
Yeah, Mike would be very, well, because he is a J.J.
McCarthy stand.
Yeah.
And then also, like we talked about this on the show on Thursday, Jason.
Like, there's two perspectives to take on J.J. McCarthy.
and I was surprised that Mike is still in on him because Kevin O'Connell, you know, Mike, you're a big fan.
Oh, yes.
He's always succeeded.
So then one argument is like, well, if you can't succeed with J.J. McCarthy, that is the greatest indictment on McCarthy possible.
The other perspective is that he'll figure it out with J.J. McCarthy.
Not the one I take.
But I think Murray barring injury will probably have his job on lockdown.
I do agree. I'm just saying how funny would it be?
for all of this hullabaloo
Kyle Murray is here to save the Minnesota Vikings
well I will say this Minnesota doesn't know it yet
but that's what they want
that's what they should want
Kyler to lose
yeah because that means JJ McCarthy is
really stepped up because I don't think of it
I think it's closest because it's Kyler's job
so that means that JJ would have to be
that superior in camp that much of a difference maker in camp
and that's what you'd want as a Minnesota fan
is a long-term solution at the position
Kyler okay if Kyler succeeds
that's awesome.
How far does that go and then how many years do you want to make a big financial guarantee to
Kyler?
Right.
I think he's perfect for the Vikings.
Sorry, Vikings fans.
He is the perfect quarterback to get you to the playoffs.
End of the road there.
Like he's not going to win a Super Bowl.
Kyler is it.
Yeah, the one playoff experience with Kyla Murray was, that was one of the worst games of a
quarterback that we have ever seen in the playoffs.
Aaron Donald had his way.
Yeah, Kyler and the Cardinals did nothing in that game.
So fantasy-wise, yeah.
I mean, it's great for the potential of Justin Jefferson to be back for Jordan Addison.
For the offense in general, you really didn't have a lot of hope very often with the Vikings' offense last year.
In fact, your most valuable time was Carson Wentz.
So that says it all.
It really says a lot.
And they still were above 500 and won their last five games.
It's a very good team.
And Kyler is definitely enough.
Like if you look at the...
Just put the other names that could go there, right?
Like if it was Gino Smith or it was Aaron Rogers or Kirk Cousins or Joe Flacco,
like Kyler's the best of those choices.
Yeah, he is.
So they have to be encouraged that at a minimum they have a backup plan that is existing there.
Rashad White signs a one-year $2 million deal with the Washington Commanders.
which now puts their backfield as a
I mean, Echler's still under contract, right?
Or no?
No, I think he's done.
Okay.
Then that's a mistake by me.
I mean, he's obviously recovering from a major injury, Achilles tear.
But I thought he was still under contract.
If he's not, is Jacori-Kraske-man-in-Rashad White right now?
Echler is an unrestricted.
Okay, okay, so he's gone.
This is, I think, a really important pick and player for fantasy
right now
before the seventh pick
in the NFL draft
happens.
You have to kind of
call your shot
on whether Jeremiah I love
Rashad White
on a $2 million deal
does not preclude you
from taking Jeremiah.
Oh no, this is, I mean...
But should Jeremiah Love not be there?
Yeah.
Then this is,
then this really matters.
Rashad White.
Matters for Jacori Kroski Merritt, too.
It's a little baby deal for Rashad White.
And I mean, they're just,
they're building.
team ASU over there.
Brandon IUC is definitely next.
For Washington.
Interesting. Yeah, because Rashad White,
Jaden Daniels. Yeah.
Boy, I wonder where Jeremiah loves going.
We did this on the footcast.
I think we were walking through those picks,
or maybe it was the Thursday show.
I lose track at this point.
But to me, it's really Tennessee.
I don't think that it's going to be New York.
And I know we don't want it to be with Cam Scoutaboo.
But I do think, I put my chips in Tennessee.
I think that...
Which then I think
Rashad White is a very interesting
dynasty acquisition.
Yeah.
You've never believed in the talent, though.
No.
No, but he will catch a lot of passes.
Yeah.
Do you see the several videos
and the images in the debut
of the new Titans jerseys?
Yes.
I like them.
Fabulous.
Oh, okay.
Fabulous.
Delightful.
Wonderful.
Well done.
Falcons are getting new ones this year too, thank goodness.
That was like a two-year trial.
Was it the Falcons where...
I love New Jersey's, by the way.
No, well, no, we had that, but we had like...
Who was the team where we couldn't tell the number?
Oh, yeah, that was the Falcons.
Bejohn and Mooney.
The number one...
A seven and one was a seven.
Yeah, Jason was outraged on a weekly basis.
It was dumb.
The number one, the numbers...
mean things.
But you really, I'm going to be honest with it, you should be able to tell the difference
between Darnel Mooney and B. John Robinson.
Okay.
Fair.
But when things are going fast, it's just a point.
Wait, not what?
Yeah, that's fair.
Mooney.
That's true.
Who was it?
Get out of here, Mooney.
Which running backs were like the one number off?
What?
Corum and Kyron.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
That one's annoying.
Where you're like, touchdown four.
What?
Corum.
22, three.
Dang it.
Yep.
How about this move?
The Seahawks signed Emmanuel Wilson to a one-year deal,
adding to their pile of backfield options.
Did you see their comments on George Halani as well?
No.
You did not.
I did not.
They said that they are the belief around Seahawks people
is that they believe he has a lot more to offer
and they want to get him more opportunity.
Hey, I've seen how they believe in Charts.
So that makes sense.
Yeah, I mean.
They saw Emmanuel Wilson.
and they were like,
hmm.
Yeah.
Charbs,
Emmanuel Wilson.
Wilson's actually,
he's fine.
I think this is a very important signing for fantasy with Charbonnet.
Like his ACL surgery was February 20th.
That is,
he will not be ready to start the year.
Like he might not be ready until October,
November.
There were a lot of people,
probably doctors,
I'm guessing,
that agreed with a lot of urinary medical analysis on the last show.
Oh,
about the Achilles.
The Achilles?
We're stacking them.
Even some people are on board with me where you just, you have a gap year between college and the pros where you break everything.
And you let it heal stronger.
People are really getting on board from what I'm hearing at least three or four of them.
Amari DiMarcato, one year deal.
Which, oddly enough, they're no longer allowed to practice anything in the medical field.
Who is it?
The doctors who agree with us.
Oh, certainly.
Yeah, they've been revoked.
Chiefs signed Amara DiMarcato, depth piece there.
Perfect, perfect.
It doesn't really matter.
Tutu Outwell to the Dolphins, Calvin Austin to the Giants.
I mean, 2-2.
Oh, no.
Calvin Austin to the Giants is a nice addition.
Calvin Austin had, he made plays.
He's not going to be Wondale replacement, but it's also, he's a good player.
Sure.
He's what they wanted Jalen Hyatt to be.
Yeah, I mean, he actually will make plays, in other words.
Yeah, get down the field fast, get open, it stretches field.
I can't believe McVeigh let Tutu go.
I know, right?
It's like always been his dude.
Well, there's AJ Brown rumors.
We're recording the show a little bit early, by the way.
So if AJ Brown has been randomly traded and we're talking about it now, I apologize.
But you imagine AJ Brown to the Rams?
Chill out.
Yeah.
L.A.
Don't do that.
Hold down.
Maybe the right mathematical process to go through.
Because you got Puka and he's a legend.
But maybe two veteran stars equals one veteran.
veteran star. Maybe that's the way you should be looking at it. Adams plus AJ Brown
equals 17 games played. Maybe that's the way you should look at it when you add
the, you know, like they should add Mike Evans and then they got to add
Keenan Allen. Do you know what I mean? Sure. San Francisco, you get, you add those two guys
and you'll get 17 weeks. I mean, it would, Brown,
Brown to the Rams would be ridiculous. They will be, and then they added Trent
McDovey, they're going to be really good. I'm saying for the Rams. I just realized guys,
Kyle Murray is going to be the Rams quarterback in
27.
Like that's the plan.
Because there was all the rumors that they wanted him,
but he would have to sit for a year behind Stafford makes sense.
So what does he do?
He goes signs a one year deal with a no tag clause with Sean McVeigh's buddy.
It's like, hey, go play over there for a year.
The farm team is the vice-ex opportunity?
Yeah, call on it now.
Oh, man.
All right.
Let's jump right in.
coaching carousel.
All right, we have a lot of names to get through,
but let's go ahead and recap what we're seeing for 2026.
Last year in 2025, we had seven head coaching changes,
the year before eight, the year before five, and then nine.
So this year we have 10, and 21 new offensive coordinators,
which is wild, because there are 32 teams.
Oh, man.
Well, because teams keep hiring defensive head coaches.
Yeah, those numbers actually math.
out pretty good. Like if you have the most new head coaches, a lot of those are going to be
standout offensive coordinators. So let's do a quick, let me get a quick reaction from
both of you to the results of the seven hires of last year. I thought it was pretty good.
There are a couple of... I was going to go one by one, but...
Oh, all right.
It's just a lay of the land. I think it was a successful... It was a successful year to
atrocious ones and then everyone else was pretty good.
So Ben Johnson, obviously.
Great.
Two thumbs up.
Awesome.
Liam Cohen.
Yeah, considering there was, what, seven last year?
Kellyn Moore.
You have three coaches that I feel, or in Rabel.
So four.
Four coaches that you feel good about the direction of the program.
Aaron Glenn?
He's not one of them.
Pete Carroll.
And that's the other.
Those two are outright just catastrophes.
One of them still got the job.
Which I think is a large,
catastrophe.
Like, it would have been less bad if he didn't have...
More egregious, Jason.
The New York Jets retaining the services of Aaron Glenn.
Okay.
Or the New York Jets trading for Gino Smith.
Oh, man.
I'm going to say retaining Aaron Glenn.
Okay.
Because Gino Smith is probably the best quarterback they've had since Gino Smith.
Every bad team needs...
and I know this is a Cardinal Finn.
Every bad team what you need is a
you need a story.
It may be an improbable one, but you need the way
that you could succeed this year.
There has to be some remote...
35% target share, Garrett Wilson.
Well, fantasy, yes, you'll succeed.
That's their best chance of succeeding.
But I'm just saying there are some teams this year
that I do not have the story for. That's all I'm saying.
Like, I don't have a story for the Cardinals.
Jacoby Brissette as a starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals is not a story.
The story is the number one pick.
Yes, that is the story.
The story is how do you get the number one pick?
Right now, they're projected to have the most cap space in the NFL next year.
So this is a 2027 plan so they can lose to the...
What's your jet story?
Oh, that one is tough.
I mean, obviously, number one pick.
Gino just proved he can do that.
You know?
So that's...
He's already proved he can get you.
That's why they brought him on.
Who do we bring in?
ensure the number one pick.
Oh my goodness. Do the Cardinals and Jets play this year?
Because that would be a very important game.
That would be a very important game.
That's the one that has to go up to Alaska and play the...
Some fast facts on the coaching changes over the last decade.
NFL teams hired 70 head coaches in the last decade.
Only 33 of the 70 had NFL offensive play-calling experience of the 70.
So it's 47%.
seven of the 10 new hires this year did.
So maybe that trend is starting to change.
Younger coaches perform.
We've been trying to help.
Yeah.
We've been trying to put the word on.
Telling you what you need to do.
Younger coaches perform better in year one than their aged peers.
30s, if you're in the 30s as a first year head coach, almost a 500 winning percentage.
If you're in your 40s, 0.424, so 42% winning percentage.
And if you're in your 50s, you're over a coach.
45% do I have some great news for you guys the Arizona Cardinals do in fact no play the New York Jets in Alaska
it's in Arizona unfortunately it is in Arizona it's a home game but holy crap I I'm pretty sure
that will decide the the order of the top three I believe the Cardinals have a much more difficult
schedule oh thank goodness yeah thank goodness the uh
The Cardinals' home schedule includes the Eagles, Broncos, and Lions.
Yeah, who am I?
Do you realize the fun irony of Arch Manning and Marvin Harrison being the tandole?
Yes.
I mean, that is.
Like running it back?
It's like running it back, yeah.
All right, let's get into it.
Ten teams with new head coaches.
I don't think they will be as good.
Sorry, Arch.
Let me just understand something.
But becoming Peyton is a, that's far away.
Just ask Marvin.
how easy it is to become dad
it's not a guarantee
if you guys have had this
backwards philosophy where you're abandoning your home team
yep
but let me understand
are you putting it because you're not switching teams
like I can get more on board with it
are you setting it aside are you putting it in the closet
yes you're putting it in a box
it's on a top shelf I need a step stool
oh you as well
oh yeah yeah I'm in the attic bro
oh you are you a ladder wow
yeah I mean I could see mine
Your attic doesn't have one of those pull-downs, the auto pull-down ladders?
You have to bring a ladder?
No, we have those in Arizona?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't.
So you guys both have placed your fandom in, like, a cardboard box and threw it up in the attic?
Yeah.
Next to some old clothes and amendments?
Mine's next to other teams, boxes, and I'm just...
I will say it's hard to, after this long of a history of rooting for one team,
to, like, really get on board with someone else.
Yeah, we say we don't care, but this.
then all of this news we're talking about.
I was like, we want them to get the number one pick.
If you had the number one pick, you'd be pretty excited.
I would be.
Okay.
You guys are just working through some stuff.
The Cardinals, new head coach, Mike LaFleur.
They at least got this one, right?
Yeah, checks a lot of boxes.
You've got young.
39 years old.
Good.
Offense.
Good.
McVeigh, Shanahan trees, both of them.
Great.
Hair is questionable.
Hair is, at 39, the hair's a problem.
It's just the style, though.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's got good hair.
Yeah.
It's just what he's doing with it needs to change.
Yeah.
Which, I mean, to be fair, this is the analysis that you'll need.
Jonathan Gannon, it was not the hair.
It was the stuff underneath.
It was the brain.
The brain.
Whizpops.
The Cardinals.
You got to fire in your bed.
Oh, yeah.
How'd you drive here?
Oh, man.
Take the bus?
How did we ever not know how bad it was going to be from day one?
I mean, we did.
All right.
Cardinals should have watched that have been like,
you have failed your physical.
With Gannon?
Yeah.
So does the floor,
if you think they're playing,
this is the hard part of the NFL, right?
You say you're playing for 2027.
This is a first time head coach.
He's not playing for 2027.
Correct.
This is the hard part about getting the number one pick,
is you can come in and we believe he's a talented coach.
They got the coach higher right.
They were the number one passing team in football last year,
and Jacoby starts.
I mean, 40 pass attempts per game.
We talked about this.
Like, if you bring in Jacoby Brouss, it's not inspiring for Cardinal fans.
It's really good for Tray McBride.
It's really good for Michael Wilson potentially securing more of a wide receiver
two, three fantasy role, Marvin Harrison being something.
There is stability in that.
Yeah.
Same way with Daniel Jones and Alec Pierce.
You keep the name that you already know.
Obviously, the fantasy implications are what we're talking about today.
This is phenomenal.
You've got a young, offensive-minded head coach from a running tree and a passing tree inheriting a team.
Like, I made a lot about towards the end of the year, Jacoby was throwing the ball 40 times a game.
He was on pace for 700 pass tickets.
It's not going to happen again.
This is as close as you're going to get where the defense, they're not investing in this team.
They are not making this team like where you're really going to be competing for the playoffs in year one.
Yes, Michael Flore will be trying to win games.
He's a young first time head coach.
But Montiawson, the GM is not investing in the 2026 Cardinals.
The defense is going to be bad.
I think Josh Sweat may be requested a trade.
He actually said he didn't.
Yeah, that came out.
Yeah, but they do that sometimes.
They come out and they're like, no, I didn't.
And then they get traded.
And it's like, but regardless, I think it's going to be a bad defense and a good offense, despite the fact, I mean, Marvin Harrison, we'll have the debates right now. I know Michael Wilson is being drafted ahead of them. You guys.
In basketball? Yeah. Really? Yeah. I mean, it was like a month ago. Yes. Michael Wilson looked great. Tray McBride obviously is awesome. And the running game should work with this scheme. So I think there will be plenty of fantasy goodness. What was your reaction to Tyler Algear?
As we go through the coaching changes, if there's a relevant free agent you didn't get to talk about them, I'll get your like two second thoughts.
Yeah, I mean, it was really an anti-Trey Benson.
What's that?
That was your time, sir.
All right.
I think that the run game will be a 1A of James Connor until he's injured and then a 1A of Algear.
The Cardinals did suffer the most injuries in football last year.
40 players missed a total of 318 games.
That was the worst in the NFL.
We talked about the final four teams in the NFC
combined didn't have as many players on the injured reserve as the Arizona Cardinals did.
So were they a bad team? Yes.
Was their offense really productive for fantasy?
Yes. Is Michael Four a good offensive coach?
Yes.
So is Nathaniel Hackett going to do anything as the new offensive coordinator?
We hope not.
We hope not.
Especially considering last year he was a defensive analyst.
Cardinals are plus two, six.
for fewest wins in the NFL.
They have the longest odds of a Super Bowl
of all teams. Yeah. That would
correlate with how bad we expect him to be. How is
Hackett still getting jobs?
This was like an important, like,
Networking. Yeah, it really was.
I mean, person to person. I mean,
stop it. LaFleur wanted to hack it, bad.
Brother, you got to be a head coach.
It was awful. You got to be an OC for the Jets.
It was awful.
Like someone else, someone else gets an opportunity.
He was mid-season fired by the Broncos, right?
Isn't that what that was?
Believe.
Like a real quick firing?
I believe that's okay.
That's, man.
We'll take a break.
That's like three years ago.
I don't remember.
We don't know.
All right, we don't have to talk about the Cardinals anymore.
They were one of the 10 head coaching changes.
We'll move on to the Atlanta Falcons who are eight and nine.
They have a collection of left-handed quarterbacks now.
new head coach Kevin Stefansky, who we love.
So that is, you know, their story feels a little bit similar to the Cardinals where like the actual head coaching hire we have good confidence in.
LaFleur, Sophansky.
But beyond that, you look at the rest of the offseason moves.
Very weird.
But they will, you know, I do believe in Stafansky.
I don't have the same view that you have on lumping them in with the Jess and Browns.
a whole week talking about the free agent pickups. That was a good time. Yeah. That was a good time.
The Falcons, I mean, obviously they brought in a hodgepodge of unimportant people, but with Stefanski there, you know how good his running game has been, how dedicated he is to the run, the fact that they've got Beijian here. And honestly, like, Pinnix, I don't know that he can really be what they hoped when they drafted him. And Tua can come in here and win games.
You think Tua wins a job?
Because they also put it out there yesterday
that it was like both players know they're coming in to compete for the job.
I think Tua wins the job.
The offenses for Kevin Stavansky have ranked in top 10 in rush attempts
every year from 2019 to 2023.
To your point.
Their offensive line was middle of the pack at 14th.
They do not have a first round pick because of poor decisions.
Yeah, I mean, they're dealing with James Pierce situation.
as well.
They need wide receiver help, I don't think.
No.
Zakias is the answer.
He's the perfect answer.
35% target share, Drake London.
It's fair.
They got a new offensive coordinator, Tommy Reese.
Zach Robinson was there, who we liked.
Are we going to be
just brought back into Kyle Pitts?
Right now?
I think so.
I mean, the Stefansky, you were like, hey, top 10 in rushing attempts and all those.
And they've given us, at least the Cleveland Browns over the past few years.
There has been fantasy tight ends that-ins.
This is the Browns moving over here, too.
Tommy Reese is the Browns offensive coordinator.
Yeah.
At the end of the year, I do think that he'll be a top six tight-in.
So it's a tight-in one.
But it will be irrelevant.
I mean, I brought that up on the things to remember.
Although, man, the Things to Remember episode, I was thinking about this.
Uh-oh.
One of my things to remember was that if you're not taking basically Brock Bowers and Trey McBride,
then just check out.
Just punt completely.
Don't fall like, I got to have the next guy.
And then after that, after that episode, dude, the DJ Moore and the Michael Pittman maneuvers.
I'm like, oh, Warren and Boblin.
Yeah, I'm like, oh, come on.
I'm supposed to remember not to draft those guys
And now you're making me really hot and bothered
If you want to put Warren and Loveland
Into the year four guys of a
Draft one of these four or log out
Yeah
If you want to leave Fanon out of it like we would
Yeah you know
I mean it is super ironic that
I mean it was that was part of the issue
Was the target share now both of those guys could
Legit lead their teams and targets
I think they're both players I'd be fighting for
as of right now.
But, you know, at the time of you saying it, that wasn't the case.
Right.
Anyways.
We obviously saw it coming.
Baltimore, new head coach, new offensive coordinator.
It's wild.
We had the show, we were talking about Rico Dowdle going to Pittsburgh, right?
And how I still cannot process moves to Pittsburgh without seeing Mike Tomlin's face
and how he will treat the offense.
Same thing as with Harbaugh here in Baltimore.
I feel like those two stalwarts for so many years,
it's really hard to process how a team functions
when you've seen Baltimore and what they've done
and all of a sudden it's Jesse Mentor.
All of a sudden is Declan Doyle, that offensive coordinator.
Declan Doyle.
Is that a comment on his name?
Doyle rules.
Well, yeah, there is.
I just, that's, it's intense.
Declan.
He is. Declan.
30.
Get over here, Declan.
You're grounded.
He's 30 years old.
3.0.
Oh, he can still be grounded.
He can still be grounded, for sure.
He rides his bicycle to work.
You know, obviously Sean McVeigh was 30 years old when he got hired as a head coach.
So he's very interesting, well regarded.
But I don't know.
I like young.
You know this guy played Madden.
You know what I mean?
Like, you know, like yesterday.
Yesterday, last night he was playing Madden.
I want that.
The big concern I have right now in my.
Like you've shared it when we've talked about losing Patrick Ricard and Lyndonbaum.
Lindenbaum.
Their offensive line.
Yeah.
You know, you, this was, by the way, Declan Doyle was the offensive coordinator for the Bears last year.
Yeah.
No, no, we like that.
He drew up that sweet fourth downplay where, uh, where, where Caleb went backwards for 20 yards and then chucked it.
That was all him.
Amazing work.
Um, defensive coordinator.
Jesse Menor was the defensive coordinator of the Chargers in, uh, 24 and 25.
but the offensive line is is concerning yes you know they they they lost Isaiah likely in free agency
another you know one of the more explosive weapons yes mark andrews is under contract he's in
the sunsetting part of his career day flowers is there baitman but i i just think it is thank
goodness they have their first round pickback oh my gosh because they could really use an old lineman
yeah and another first round pickback
from the next year.
And let's be honest, we'd all rather have two first round picks and Hendrickson.
For sure.
Then we would Max Crosby and no first round picks.
But, you know, you don't get to like, you don't get to go all the way to the end.
I think you do, man.
Everybody, everybody is so big mad at the Ravens.
And I'm like, you should be.
I'm like, good for you.
You make your team better.
You did what you should do.
If I was a Ravens fan, I'd be like, sucks for you.
I mean, it does suck for all the teams that were like, they went out and spent money, like the Raiders and the Cowboys who wanted Max Crosby, now they can't get them because they signed other guys. I mean, it's within the rules.
Yeah, it's. So it's now a matter of do those teams want to do. It did make their team better. I saw, I saw immediately like that the entire NFL is going to have a hard time like working with the Ravens of this. No, they're not.
If a deal makes sense for a team, they're going to work with the Ravens again.
This feels like a fantasy trade, though, where, and we've been down this road with certain people, where the deal's like a handshake deal, or it's almost done, and then they get the reaction of the league.
Oh, yeah.
And then they go, let's put the poll up.
What do you guys think?
You like this deal?
And then you get the reaction, and you get to go, nah.
That's Bush League.
That's what this is.
Nah.
This is Bush League.
Oh, it was, yeah.
Fantasy.
There's no question this is Bush League.
It was the correct move for the Baltimore Ravens.
And it was Bushley.
I can agree with that.
Yeah.
Okay.
Buffalo, new head coach, new offensive coordinator.
They were 12 and 5 last year.
Why not change your head coach and your offensive coordinator?
And then keep your offensive coordinator.
That's right.
Joe Brady becomes the head coach.
The head coach, which is good.
I think it was the right move.
They hit their cap with McDermott?
Yeah.
Yeah, no, I can see that.
And we'll, I mean, it's going to bear itself out this year.
They already made the move for DJ more.
But this was a run first.
team, Joe Brady, there is stability, right? Normally when you lose your offensive coordinator,
or rather your head coach, you have massive instability. It's not good for fantasy players to
not know what to expect. You can know what to expect on this team. For James Cook, for Josh
Allen, you have the same guy, and they were a run first team. They led the NFL with 109
rush attempts inside the red zone. Joe Brady, 36.
years old.
This isn't really a coaching change.
I mean, for fantasy football, right.
For us, it isn't.
For us, it is not a coaching change at all.
The offense is being run.
Joe Brady called plays last year.
Joe Brady's calling plays this year.
He'll have someone additional to help him design and run stuff.
It was a defensive-minded head coach at the top prior to this.
So this is just more of the same.
Personally, I love this for fantasy.
I don't think it's a, I don't.
think it was the right move or higher for the bills, but I get why they did that. And really,
there's, we can't look at this team and say anything different about what to expect from the
offense. Other than the loss of, yeah, Gilliam, full back Gilliam is gone. They lost their left
guard as well. So those are, I mean, just like the Ravens will have some question marks at the
O line, as will the Buffalo Bills.
Who were six, I think?
Yeah, they had a very strong line.
And so, you would,
being that strong of a unit already,
they should be able to figure it out,
but those things matter.
This is also a deeper office of line draft.
They don't necessarily have like the one superstar elite
tackle that's, you know, the number one pick.
But I think that these teams will be taking linemen in the first.
Jason, we didn't get your, let's get your
couple moment reaction to DJ more to Buffalo.
I mean, I adored that move for literally everyone,
only from a fantasy football standpoint,
contracts and price don't matter to me.
So is it good for Josh Allen?
Yes.
Is it good for DJ Moore?
He's probably the biggest winner because he looked dead for the Bears.
And then you look at the Bears,
You go, okay, Colson Loveland has the opportunity to be the number one target,
or Luther Burden, or Roma Dunes.
Like, it hurt nobody.
Like, Caleb is not a down arrow losing DJ Moore, but Josh Allen is an up arrow.
So, and it, the only person it may be hurt, so like, Khalil Shakir, don't care.
Well, in 2024, so two years ago, Alan was the first top five fantasy quarterback that didn't
have a top 36 wide receiver because Shakir was 38th.
he did it again last year.
Two consecutive years where he didn't have a top
36 wide receiver option.
I do not believe that happens this year.
I think DJ Moore will easily finish in the top 36.
Yeah, I think you're probably right.
So that's the lay of the land with the Buffalo Bills.
Why not talk about the Cleveland Browns who lose Kevin Stefansky?
They got a new head coach.
It's Todd Monkin, the offensive coordinator out of Baltimore,
say in indivision.
They were 5 and 12 last year.
They punted the ball the most in the NFL.
93 times.
That's DeFansky.
That's true.
Todd Monkin comes in 60 years old.
I don't know the 60 year old staff.
It's not going to work, man.
This is not.
Look, I know we all like Todd Monkin from a fantasy standpoint.
He likes to air it out, play fast, do great things as a lot.
What's my age again?
Honestly, I didn't realize that's what that drop was.
Yeah.
I thought that was the actual.
song.
60-year-old first-time
head coach for the
Browns who don't
have a quarterback in place.
It's just this is a placeholder
for two years.
That drop had not been used since 2017,
by the time. Let me give you some sweet stats
about old dudes taking over.
Eight first-time head coaches over the last
25 years that were
four older.
They averaged 6.4 wins in
year one and only Mike Zimmer and Bruce Ariens lasted more than three years.
This is, this feels like, um, like a lifetime achievement award.
Right.
I'm happy for Monkin.
Like he was, he will be able to tell his grandkids that are now 20 in, in their 30s, maybe,
um, that he was a head coach.
That's so mean.
It's so mean.
It's, but seriously, dude, that's, I mean, congrats.
Yeah, I mean, it, that Monkin was desired.
to go with Harbaugh.
That was, you know, that was the intent.
But then he had the opportunity to land a head coach deal.
In his 30s.
And he will probably be the OC for Harbaugh again in the near future.
The Raiders changing.
Should we talk more about the Browns and what to expect that offense?
Maybe for a moment here.
Their offensive line was 31st.
They have Quinn-Jadkins injured.
He'll be coming back.
the entire offensive line is changing over this offseason.
Their quarterback is.
Deshawn Wardson, maybe?
I mean, right now, I think the answer should do her Sanders.
Yeah, it's one of those two.
Yes, the answer is Sanders, but if you get to camp and it's Gabriel Sanders-Watson,
and it's actual competition, not a, we're just going to give the job to Sanders to see if he can do it.
if they go with who is the best right now, Watson will win the job.
Man, Watson was real bad, though.
He was.
I mean, he was, he was never certifiably the worst in the league.
It was.
Not a pro bowl or like Shadoer.
We talked about this back in the day.
When it was first happening, it's hard to remember how good Deshaun Watson was.
There was a reason that amidst all the allegations, he was given.
guaranteed or whatever.
Given unbelievable.
He was given over $200 million.
Yeah, it was $200 million.
It was 100% guaranteed contract.
And Picks.
And Picks.
Yes.
Because he was that good.
How much was it?
It was, yeah.
It was 200 plus.
Yeah.
What were they thinking?
And they weren't alone.
The Falcons tried to get.
That's how good he was.
But I remember bringing this up.
Like, sometimes these are human beings like Tiger Woods.
Tiger Woods was unstoppable.
Right.
And then he had a personal issue.
230.
230.
And it was like, you're just not.
the same player again. And Deshaun Watson has never, he never got back to being done. He was
one of the worst players I've ever seen. Yeah. So, I mean, I don't think it's impossible. It should
do or beats him. But if I had to call him a shot right now with the first time head coach,
I think it will be. So with all of that in mind, Harold Fanon Jr. Can he overcome? I mean,
he played with the same crappy options last year and was awesome. Yeah. Yeah. Las Vegas,
new head coach, new offensive coordinator. They're making moves this offseason. They acquired Max
Crosby recently from the Baltimore Ravens.
No, Clint Kubiak.
I'm excited.
Yeah. I think this was the best hire of the offseason.
You're going to get Fernando Mendoza with the number one overall pick.
First thing you do after Cubes comes in the door is you get a center to upgrade a
change's line.
That is what the best center.
I mean, this is just.
It's not hard, man.
Just good football maneuvers.
Yeah, I mean, an offensive line makes mediocre players good.
Everything better.
Good players great.
Great players, legendary.
Fix the offensive line.
I think the real question is going to be, you're going to have a, we know it will be an improved run game.
You're going from the nepotism failure of Pete Carroll's son as the offensive line coach that was reported to be just an abysm.
abysmal catastrophe and the offensive line stunk to a cube.
Reported by my eyes.
Yeah.
To a cubes led run game that we know is good and upgraded offensive line with a center
we know is good.
And then you've got Ashen Genty there.
But you also have a clear and obvious want, desire, declaration for a running back by
committee situation.
will be like the coaching change here.
Is it an up arrow for Genti?
Yes. For me it is. For me, I'm
all in on Genti. Really? Yeah, I am.
I am not, and I said this when that
report came out of the committee. I'm not convinced
that, you know, I put zero stock in the, just because it wasn't the
guy that they drafted. This is a top five pick.
I think Ginty's got the goods.
I think you need, he's the
best player on the offense outside of ours, right?
I mean, this is, it's him and Bowers right now.
You sound like me talking about Walker.
Other than the top five.
I can't give you the top five pick part of the argument.
But yeah.
No, I, look, if the difference is,
the sentiment is negative around Genty, he'll end up on my guy.
It's not, that's what's going to end up happening.
I don't think it should be negative.
But there, we just, as of right now, you still have to wait.
Because who is the RB2?
They, there's no one on the team right now.
At least there shouldn't be a,
a player on the team who
takes a ton of...
There's nobody that is going to matter to me.
They're not drafting Jeremiah Love.
And once you go beyond Jeremiah Love,
I'm not going to care about the name that you tell me.
They have too many needs to take like a second round pick on Coleman,
which would be just about it.
I mean, I agree.
I was worried when that news came out.
If you told me it was Aaron Jones,
I'd have been like, oh, crap.
A little bit of, oh, crap.
With, yeah, with Aaron Jones being gone,
Tyler Algier being gone.
There's no free agents left to really come in and compete and split.
So I don't disagree.
I do think it is an arrow up.
We'll take a break.
We'll talk Miami.
All right.
It's Malik Willis's team.
The Miami Dolphins, brand new head coach, brand new offensive coordinator.
Bobby Sloick, welcome back to the prime time.
It worked so well in Houston.
Jeff Hayfully taken over Mike McDaniel,
over in Miami. They make the splash on Malik Willis. Jason, we didn't get to hear the thoughts.
Malik Willis to Miami. It was your pick. That was the one that you hit. And he basically said at the
press conferences because of those guys. He just knew these guys from his time and the Packers.
I don't know, man. It's hard for me. I know you're in on Malik Willis as a talent. You believe in
him. You made that really clear. I'm not there. I don't think we've seen enough.
to know if he is really actually good or not.
That much is a guaranteed truth.
Like whether you believe or not,
we definitely haven't seen enough to be like proven.
Yeah, and they gave him a lot of money
and they kind of, they acted like it was proven.
So I don't view this as necessarily smart.
I also think it'll be a down arrow.
You know, you bring in a defensive head coach
and Bobby Sloick as the offensive,
coordinator and a mobile
quarterback.
I don't think this
is going to be great for the Jalen Waddle
type. Just the passing
volume I would not expect to
be. I would think that their plan is going to
come in here and improve
the defense, run the
ball better. You know, that's probably
their best player is arrow up for H-hand
for you? Not really
because I think it'll be neutral
because the receiving game
will probably go down for him
as the, you know, rushing attempts go up for the team.
So I'm not, I'm not like anti this, but I'm not excited for things.
Here's the nice thing for A-chan.
This was a 29th ranked offensive line that he produced at the level that he did last year.
A, I mean, he's an A consistency, probably the most consistent running back.
Yeah, he was the only one that did not have a bust game.
I mean, dolphins right now are the team directly behind the Cardinals, with the highest
size to finish last.
So that's not.
not great. No. I don't love either higher, but I do think that Malik Willis for fantasy will be very good.
I think that's where I'm pretty... But just for him. You've got the cheat code for Malik Willis.
And I think Jaylon Waddle without Tyreek Hill, it's pretty clear he's going to be the...
I mean, he's going to be the linchpin of the offense, right? I know. Are they bringing back the
Walrus? Kidding. I doubt it. Yeah. I mean, not... I mean, I don't know. I don't know how the Miami fans are
feeling right now. They pick at 11.
Sloick was like, I mean, to be clear, he was a head coaching
candidate. Oh yeah. He was on fire
because rookie sensation,
you know, C.J. Stroud was like, oh man,
the offense and it was him and Ben Johnson.
They were the two hot commodities. He should have
taken a job. Well, I mean, it worked for Ben Johnson to not
take the job. They both went back. Turns out Ben Johnson
was good. Right. And then you had the next
year of Sloak with C.J. Stride and you went,
what happened? I will be
curious to see if Miami spins some picks on
some of the top tier wide receiver talent. That
would be, if you add another big name here,
it's going to make it really hard, like you said, if the passing
volume isn't where it was before,
and you add a bigger, a Denzel
Boston or Concepcion or
something, or even somebody higher,
because they pick at 11. I mean, they could
get Tyson. They could end it with one of the
big three. Kate, something like that. Not impossible.
That'll be something to watch.
But the Giants,
Four and thirteen last year, fourth in the NFC East.
Hello, John Harbaugh.
You sad?
I just you would.
You're sad at Madanaggy.
Yeah, I mean, it's like.
Yeah, what is that?
Expound on your.
Because that's how the higher feels to me.
It was like, oh, well, this guy just is such a long, tenured coach.
Of course, we need to, we got to get this guy in.
And you're like, and he's been fine.
Like the Ravens.
have been fine.
You know what I mean?
He's older than Monkin.
And I would say, yeah, but he's not a first.
Yeah, he's a very experience.
But it's the, like that team feels like they really, for who he had, you had a quarterback.
I mean, very few teams actually have a quarterback.
You have a true franchise quarterback in Lamar, and you really, really underperform.
So that's where it feels more of a, eh.
This is, I don't feel like I've heard this.
from you yet.
You've been working through it.
Because you love Jackson Dart,
you love neighbors.
I feel like this is a bit
of a resignation to,
like you'd love to believe differently.
Yeah. So in, in terms of the
players, I still believe in them.
And I still believe in Jackson Dart.
You just don't get the,
like your pit crew
is not nearly as
strong as it could have been for them.
It doesn't mean you can't still be solid
and great for fantasy.
But,
with Harbaugh as the head coach
and then Matt Matt Nagy is just the
what?
He's gonna say the worst.
Oh, it was just the worst?
Was it reported that Cliff Kingsbury
was coming here for a minute?
Yes.
For a moment.
Yeah.
And then it was like, oh yeah.
Sing it in the streets.
Yeah.
And he's like, gotcha.
It's.
He took the mask up.
The budget magician.
And it was Matt Nagy.
Yeah.
Who failed as a head coach and then
goes to the Kansas City Chiefs
and their office just
falls apart?
The Giants were very good when Dart was on the field last year.
They were only minus 13 and 12 starts in terms of point differential.
They were minus 47 without him.
He is a really good player and the offensive line is good.
And if they add to it at the fifth pick and they don't go Jeremiah Love,
which I don't think they will.
I mean, they were the ninth ranked offensive line last year.
Like perhaps the Giants...
He protecting this dude that is already trying to hurt himself.
Maybe the Giants at the, while everything was going on,
if they didn't feel confident they could get LaFleur or Kubiak in,
so they just were like, well, let's get what we,
a well-respected person that we think can turn the program around.
I just feels a little disrespectful to John Harbaugh to categorize him as an inferior
hire to Michael Flore.
Well, I'm calling it an inferior hire because we know who Harbaugh is.
We don't know who Matt LaFleur is yet.
But I think that's exactly why they hired.
I think we know that he's good.
That's why you hire.
While you're disappointed that you didn't get a Super Bowl win and you didn't necessarily...
He did.
I'm saying the Lamar Jackson era of the Ravens has been disappointing only in the playoffs.
He has not been disappointing in the regular season.
I mean, they've been one of the most dominant teams over the last five years.
Super Bowl odds very high.
They have disappointed in the playoffs.
But I think, you know, for fantasy football, I think you can get a lot out of this team.
The glass half-full perspective needs to be the way that Vrable performed with New England.
Like Vrable came in, he was struggling.
It's culture.
In Tennessee, and he changed the entire culture of the organization.
That's what I look at with Harbaugh.
It's like the struggles for Vrable were much more significant than Harbaugh at the end of his tenure there.
So where he's not bringing in majestic play calling.
Maybe you get that with the floor.
You get some kind of special offensive system.
And that's where you look at Nagy and you can't get excited about offense.
Right.
I completely understand and see that, but I want this team in games.
I want this team in games that matter as the season goes on.
And by goodness, please make Camp Scataboo relevant again.
They did.
I'm looking at this offense.
It's Scataboo.
They have Tracy, right?
They paid for Singletary.
This offseason.
That's not a team ready to bring in another body.
That's smoke.
That's a smoke screen.
The whole, we're looking at Jeremiah 11th.
not happening. The Pittsburgh Steelers are now coached by Mike McCarthy.
I say the same thing for him. And their offensive coordinator is Brian Angelico,
who's replacing Arthur Smith. Replacing Arthur Smith sounds great. Yeah. We can get on board
with that. We had some great times in Dallas with Mike McCarthy. Who's their quarterback?
That's not important. Oh, okay. That's silly me. But it's Kirk Cousins. Really?
I mean, he's
Who's left?
Who's left?
It's Aaron?
Yeah, Aaron Rogers.
Or it's Kirk or it's Howard.
Which you would think if
I would think if it were Rogers
and you're the Pittsburgh Steelers,
you can't do it again, right?
You can't just be held hostage by Aaron Rogers.
Oh yeah, you can.
No, you can't.
Because you don't have another choice.
You've volunteered for a hostage situation.
You went in and you strapped your arms together and you locked the door behind.
Hey, uh,
from the outside.
You tighten this for me.
Jason, we didn't hear your reaction.
My hands are too wiggly.
We didn't get to hear your.
So they, uh, for a moment there, Caleb Johnson looked like you might have a role in this team.
And then they signed Rico Doudal.
How was that 15 minutes?
It was.
It was the best time of my life.
Yeah.
No, I, I, I've, I've moved on.
I moved on.
I moved on completely.
Carillon double. You double up on carryout. No, no, no, no, no. I have punted him off the bridge.
You might want to stay away from Johnson's.
Agreed. Agreed. David Johnson was awesome. That's true. It's just Kay Johnson's.
Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Got to figure out your Johnson rules, as you call him.
Kevin Johnson was good. Yeah. It's a basketball thing. Maybe my love for KJ has seeped over to the NFL.
I mean, just don't fall in love with bad running backs.
Oh, that's it.
That was it.
That was it right there.
Mike, Mike.
I was with you on Carrie on.
I was not on Caleb, though.
Carry on got injured.
He was going to be so good.
I hate.
Both times.
Caleb is not an injury.
No.
Pittsburgh Steelers 10 and 7 last year.
This was a 10 and 17.
They hit their, uh, their whatever, McDermott moment.
They're done.
The Tomlin arrows over.
Tomlin steps down.
McCarthy takes over.
It was good for fantasy with McCarthy in Dallas with CDLAMP.
We got an amazing wide receiver one CDLAM here with Mike McCarthy.
Dak Prescott was good.
There is a bit of the same argument for Mike McCarthy that you can make with the
hardball hire and the Brable Higher.
It's kind of a stabilizing presence.
Not an inspiring play calling situation,
but Arthur Smith was frustrating as well.
I mean, you've got Michael Pittman.
Pity City. Now in Pittsburgh, you've got D.K. Maccalf, you've got a quarterback at some point.
Are you mostly negative, mostly positive? What's the view of this hire?
I'm fine with the hire personally. From a fantasy football perspective, Mike McCarthy can get enough out of the passing.
It really comes down to the quarterback. I don't look at the Steelers and say, this is a downgrade for fantasy football, bringing Mike McCarty.
in to replace Mike Tomlin.
To me, it's a wash, is how I view it,
and I'm hopeful that maybe it actually is an improvement.
They'll play a little faster, throw the ball a little more,
but it really, they can't do that if they don't have a quarterback.
And honestly, they don't have a quarterback,
because I don't think Aaron Rogers is good enough.
Kirk Cousins probably isn't good enough.
What are you supposed to do when you're 10 and 7?
And you won your division?
because if you
like if you won your division and you succeeded
and
these are your quarterback options
like rebuilding you don't have a pick for that
yeah it's tough
I don't think there's an answer here
that's not Russell Wilson
we know that from years gone by
Tennessee three and 14 last year
full overhaul
there were 30th and points per game
I think we talked about it last week
Cam Ward was much much better
over the back half of the year
10 touched
down's one pick over the last 10 games.
Robert Sala takes over. Brian Dable,
offensive coordinator, maybe back
where he belongs, you could say. Certainly
as an O.C. Certainly where his blood
pressure medicine wants him.
I mean, that dude, that dude
went through it in New York.
Because he did have, he had the combination
of like not doing well and
really having some terrible luck.
Yeah. Oh, for sure.
For sure. And I think
I don't think this is like
Brian Daibald did not win as a head coach
but I don't think he is a bad head coach
You laughing at the bald squad?
I am laughing at what is being titled the bald squad
Their entire coaching staff is bald
It's the largest
It's absurd you gotta go look at the pictures
Robert Zala Brian Daebel you know that's
Gus Bradley bald
Unbelievable
I mean it's like 10 deep
This is I mean there had to have been genuinely
a team barber that just got laid off.
I don't know when the naming.
I don't know when the naming rights for the stadium, but like Gillette.
Oh my gosh.
Someone out here really needs to get on this.
It's comical.
Sala getting another shot, not in New York.
You like to hire?
I understand it because when you go to the jets and you fail,
it's probably
there's a good chance it's not
completely your fault
I mean
I mean just like an Aaron Glenn
maybe it's not completely as
well and
goodness
head coach of the
Buccaneers
who had his opportunities
Todd Bulls
Todd Bulls had opportunities in New York
yeah you're right
I mean
I'm on the team of I don't like when my
I don't want my franchise to hire
a defensive guy at head coach
because
done you lose your O.C.
see and you just have to keep replenishing that part of your team.
But where it stands right now as these two guys, I think it's all right.
It's good for Cam Ward, I think.
Brian Dable being there, I think, is a benefit to him.
This was one of the worst offensive and defensive teams last year.
Robert Salas should be able to do some things to fix the defense.
There were 28 points per game last year.
I'm kind of cool with it.
And now they got New Jersey's.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Sometimes you've got to look fresh.
And wigs.
I expect Cam Ward to take a step forward.
I think they'll add a big weapon beyond.
I mean, they already signed Wondale Robinson.
Please.
But I mean, if you take an offense, like Cam Ward for all of his flaws,
and I recognize how many there were in the beginning of the year,
this was one of the worst teams in football.
This was a bad offensive ensemble.
You add Juan Dale.
Let's say you add Tyson or you add.
Well, I don't think they'll get one.
I think it'll be Jeremy I take love.
Okay.
Well, even that is a massive help to Cam Ward.
Jeremiah Love can catch the football.
Jeremy Love can take that pressure off of you to be everything for your team.
Yeah, you can do that.
I think this is one of the sneaky resurgent teams.
I don't know if it happens this year, but I do like the hires.
It's hard to be the number one pick because 50% of number one picks in the last decade have a new head coach.
in year two. That's how it works, right? You're a bad team.
Yeah, and that's the thing about this team. Okay, let's say the Tennessee Titans, they surprise.
They have their, an eight win team.
Eight and nine, yeah.
Brian Dable's getting interviews to be a head coach.
That is true. Like that, and then that'll be a problem.
So it's like, if you succeed. We keep telling you how to avoid this.
If you succeed, you fail. You're going to fail.
They should flip-flop to keep.
Oh, that's the way.
Because Robert Salah, you guys did great D.C.
We're going to, we're going to fire.
We're going to demote.
Has there, if we ever had two?
No, there's no way.
There's no way there's ever been co-head coaches.
There should be here.
This is the perfect scenario.
They're both bald.
You can't tell which one's walking down the hall.
Yeah.
No, you can tell.
The table's got a beard.
That's the difference.
Yeah, one's got a beard.
One's got a belly.
They're both.
Dable.
Anything else from the Titans that you want to talk about?
I mean, I think adding Jeremiah love, all of a sudden, this team's really exciting and fun.
I will call them fun.
I would not call them exciting with Jeremiah Love.
You like the Wondale signing, Jay?
It's fine.
I mean, we all three predicted them to sign him to, you know, have Wondell essentially follow Brian
Dayball over here.
They needed it, and he's a good
wide receiver, but I am less
bullish on Cam Ward's
step forward than you are.
Yeah. And so if it doesn't happen, if it
doesn't happen, then you're just left
with mediocrity. We have any final
numbers, Kyle, on the Free Agent Predictions episode?
Did you happen to track any of that stuff?
No, we're still
waiting on a couple signings.
Good work.
Yeah.
He doesn't want to call the game before.
the game is over. What signings are we waiting on? Aaron Rogers? Everything and nothing.
Yeah. Okay. Yeah, I got you. You're very smart. Smart person. All right. Thursday, we're going to do
some trending or ending and talk about a couple other offensive coordinator changes. And,
yeah, a lot's going on right now. The NFL drafts right around the corner. We're always updating
our pre-draft rookie rankings, which are changing. And you can check all that out at
Ultimate draft kit.com. The dynasty passes out right now. We'll be back.
