The Fumblerooski Podcast - Honor of a Lifetime -Ep 423 The Fumblerooski Podcast

Episode Date: February 6, 2026

On today’s episode, we recap the NFL Honors, from the crappy presentation and the controversial winners. Where does Matt Stafford’s MVP put him in the Hall of Fame conversation? 1st Ballot? Could this have been a Co-MVP Year? After this we look at the rest of the Award Winners and compare them to our preseason picks. Chris Costich and CJ Medeiros talk all this and more!

On today's episode of the Full Morooski podcast, the NFL honors has come and gone. We take a look at who won awards, who didn't win awards. It's going to be fun to talk about this. Let's just say that. This is the Fullmer's podcast. It may not have always showed it in the stat sheet, but you can see him making throws when he needs to make the throws. Back-to-back games where he has three touchdowns. Someone's got to get that six or seven spot.

He's an elite wide receiver as a rookie. truly a lose-lose scenario for both sides. Welcome to the Fulburrsky podcast by Power 818 Radio in Secret Weapon Consulting. We got CJ in the house with myself, Chris. Adam Tuck, not with us today, as we are also recording quite late after the NFL honors. We also just recorded with Squawking Eagles with Mike and Miguel over there. Great guys. Be sure to check out that episode as we talk about the Super Bowl as well as recent Eagles news as well. So be sure to check that out.

But NFL honors was Thursday night. And, you know, it was another award show that, of course, all eyes were on one award and one award only. The NFL MVP. It was down to Matthew Stafford and Dr. Drake May and Matthew Stafford wins the AP NFL MVP by the closest voting margin since 2003, which is a very interesting year. You know why? Because that's when Peyton Manning and Steve McNair were co- MVP that season, which, by the way,

both guys ended up losing to the Patriots that year. I needed to chill on the Pats Propaganda. We were just running Pats Propaganda over there at Squawking Eagles, and we're going to do it on. our Super Bowl special, which, by the way, Super Bowl special coming out tomorrow, tomorrow Saturday at 8 a.m. So be on the lookout for that for everything, the Super Bowl, our Super Bowl picks, prop bets, you name it.

Talk more about that at the end of the show. But in terms of this MVP race, the votes ended up being Matthew Stafford, of course, in first place, 365 points, 24 first place votes. Drake May, 361. points in 23 first place votes. He was off by five points and one first place vote. Oh, baby.

I mean, talk about close. And like, it makes sense that, right, that this was the closest MVP race since 03. Because since then, like, a lot of these MVP races haven't been much of debate outside of maybe like Brady. like Brady Rogers back in 21, 22. Or Alan Lamar last year. Or Alan Lamar last year. And neither of those races and both of those MVP races were very tight as well, very, very tight. And a lot of really good cases on both sides of the ball, no pun intended.

But in this case, especially, felt especially elevated, you know, because, you really had two really good cases to make for NFL MVP this season. And the vote showed that. Boy, that close to Drake May being MVP, huh, CJ? That close. Yeah, insane. Like one first place vote, man. Yeah.

It's weird, though. Well, I'm not saying Drake May should have won it or not, but I will tell you what's weird is someone gave a first place vote to Justin Herbert. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Joseph Herbert on a first place vote for MVP before he won a playoff game. Let that stink in. Yeah.

The other candidates, of course, McCaffrey, Josh Allen, and Trevor Lawrence, I think we talked about this already. Like Trevor Lawrence, like, sneakily ended up being like a top five MVP candidate this season. And Christian McCaffrey also winning comeback player of the year this year. We'll talk about that later on as well. but um obviously you and i both think that drake may should have been MVP i think that's pretty dry i i think that we both also didn't what i said i can see both sides of this i really can't as a like i get it i'm not mad especially because i kind of didn't want to risk the mbp curts as well

so you know do that what you will exactly uh and look like say that Matthew Stafford isn't deserving of MVP, like, you may as well shoot me over that. Like, because that would not be a true statement. Matthew Stafford is extremely deserving of this MVP. And this is probably going to go down as one of the better QB seasons that we've ever seen. And it was, you know, one-yard touchdowns doesn't matter. At this point, who cares? At the end of the day, he threw 46 touchdowns, which is insane.

Yeah. Another thing, too, what we, I think, need to think about is what this does for his legacy. The Super Bowl ring is one thing, but now with an MVP, this basically guarantees he's going to the Hall of Fame. I especially on the show was very iffy about it. Like, the ring basically made me say, okay, maybe not first ballot. And I'll say, I don't know if I still necessarily believe first ballot. but the MVP with that ring in L.A. and his numbers, he's going to the Hall of Fame. Like, it is official.

This made him a Hall of Famer. Like I said, I don't think it's going to be first ballot, but he has locked himself up a spot in Canton a few years down the line whenever he retires. Yeah. Because I don't think it's forward back the next season, which he said that in his speed. oh, hopefully we'll be in the Super Bowl next year. You didn't say that, but it was something like that.

But, yeah, I definitely think so. I think another thing you have to think about, too, like in terms of Matt Stafford, if he's going to be first ballot or not, too, is, like, think about the amount of passing yards, passing touchdowns. He's up there. Like, right now he's sixth all time in passing yards,

and he's currently seventh all time in passing touchdowns, which, If he plays another year, he'll easily pass Philip Rivers next season. And he could have potentially passed Aaron Rogers, like I said, depending, A, how long he plays, potentially even Brett Farb and Peyton Manning, too. I mean, there's a real chance that he could be top five all time in passing yards and passing touchdowns. I mean, and all those guys in that mix are all also a first ballot hall of famers. So, and I don't even need to read the list because you know who's in that list. Yeah, absolutely.

That would just be my take on it at this point of Matt Deppert's career. Yeah, he's definitely going to the hall. Also, just depends on who else is going to be in that class. However, what I will tell you speaking of that, next year's Hall of Fame class, we are getting some really interesting people there. I don't know if you saw. I did not. Because like there was a post.

Okay. First time eligible for next year's Hall of Fame. Ready? This is from Adam Schaefter. So there's always some people you look at it and say, come on now. Ready? I'm just going to go down the list of people he named and you tell me if they should or not. Or like, or if you're on the fence.

And this is for next year? Get next year of first time eligibles. I think we did this this time last year, so let's do it. Yeah. Rob Grunkowski. I feel like he has to be first ballot. Yeah. If he's not first ballot,

then just throw the building away. Like, yeah. You, like, he's debatably the greatest titan of all time. Yeah. Ben Rothusberger. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe not first ballot, but he should go.

Adrian Peterson. Yes. Yeah. Honestly, it sucks how a lot of. of people our age didn't where we were like in middle school maybe a little younger like we didn't really know like his prime because a lot of us just remember oh weird agent pierce on the saints and the cardinals and the titans but no no no he was he got an MVP right he was an MVP so come he won an MVP the year after he tore his ACL exactly oh and uh richard sherman is another one

i don't know how i feel about first ballot but i think he will get it yeah like you like there's denying he was the number one cornerback for like a couple years, but three or four, yeah. I feel like I'd have to be maybe convinced a little bit more about about first ballot.

But I was going to say, I could see Sherman being like year two. Yeah, Cam, Newton. Honestly, I'm not going to lie, I'm tilting no. I'm tilting no, too. It's tough because, like, Cam Neum was a freaking beast. Like, the passing number probably-

Outside of that one MVP season and his rookie year, you know? Yeah. I'm just going to leave it there. Like, outside of that, I mean. You can, like, outside of, and sorry to say, like, yeah, his passing numbers weren't the greatest, but the playmaking ability that he had, like, also still shows up on. a stat sheet in at least the running ability.

But yeah, no, not first ballot. All right. This one is going to be a very touchy subject. Antonio Brown. No. You know what? I'm just going to rip the Band-Aid off right now. I don't care.

I'm not afraid to get controversial. You all know that if you watch. I do not believe, given his antics off the field, given how he behaves, should he be in the Hall of Fame, the stats and the accolades and all that, they do not lie. Statistically on the field, yes, he should.

But given everything surrounding him, I do not believe the NFL is going to let him in. I just don't think they will. I'm not saying I agree with it. I'm just saying I can't see the NFL really letting him in. Which is unfortunate because, you know, the stretch of like 2013 to 2000. 18 he was

disgusting absolutely disgusting he was just a monster man and okay this is a bit of an underrated one center Alex Mac no yeah I kind of agree okay Andrew Whitworth

look okay okay not for a spell but I can see it I can see your two Eric Weddle no I don't I mean Gerald McCoy defensive tackle

honestly if he was on a better team like if he was on like a bigger name than maybe but spending most of his career in tampa now uh yeah i probably also part of it and okay all right this is one where it's like oh come on chef or why'd you sneak him in there he put in leviom bell no i'm sorry i love levi on's game but no he's not a hallfamer period yeah uh joe hayden first ballot hall of very good I can be convinced all of fame yeah safety Malcolm Jenkins

I could kind of see it I could see it too I'm maybe leaning no guard Brandon Brooks I don't know to really make it a decision I know we'll ask Mike from squawking eagles about it

linebacker Dante High Tower I wish but as a Pat's fans kind of like an Edelman thing where like absolute beast in the postseason but we'll see i i don't know it's on those things where i don't think he will but if he does you will not catch me complaining yeah like obviously we know dante hightower is like this beast linebacker and a huge leader of those pat's defenses that the second part of the pat's dynasty um and uh obviously he was a big component of the

28 to 3 comeback forcing a fumble of Matt Ryan. He stopped Marshawn Lynch at the one yard line, which next play later was the Malcolm Butler interception, which a lot of people forget about that. He's made a huge indent in NFL history that won't show up in the stat sheet of, you know, like the greatest plays of all time. Like, obviously, like, tackling, tripping Marshawn Lynch and getting them down at the one yard line is one of the greatest plays of all time because of what happened afterward. True. And there's one more.

Winebacker Ryan Kerrigan. No. No, he was a beast, but not. I will say, though, I definitely think Adrian Peterson and Grong should be first ballot Hall of Famers next year. 100%. 100%. And if they're not, like both of them, AP and Grong, then I don't know what to tell you.

Yeah. Since we're on the topic of the Hall of Fame, we may as well talk about who's getting inducted this season. Drew Breeze, Larry Fitzgerald, Luke Keechley, Adam Venetary, and Roger Craig. Roger Craig, a guy that's been on the ballot for quite a little bit. And now this is at the point where everything's becoming nostalgic and all these players I grew up watching are now getting inducted into all fame.

And like the crazier part two is like some of these guys like, they like just retired. Yeah, or at least that's how it seems. Yeah. They got in quick. Larry Fitzgerald though, first ballot, Drew Brees, first ballot. Yeah. These are all well deserved as far as,

Hall of Famers go. And if you're listening, check out the graphic we made for it on Instagram. That's Fombruski underscore podcast. Go like it. A lot of people should. But yeah, this was, I know there's a lot of controversy surrounding this class.

You know, Bill Belichick not getting in. Robert Kraft, getting Stonewall for the umpteenth year. Eli Manning also not getting in. But this is still a very good class. You know, they're all deserving of it. Roger Craig, it's been past time. Breeze and Fitzgerald being first ballot was right.

Vinintieri, Grace Kicker ever getting in, of course. The fact that on the Hall of Fame shirt, he's probably going to go in as a cult does not sit well with me, but I can't. It's not a choice to make. He'll be deeply getting his flowers was nice. Why would you think that Adam Ventieri would go in as a cult? He spent more years on the Colts.

I think that's how it works. Yeah, but more people know. Chris, it's about the shirt. It's not about how you remember it. It's about the shirts, Chris. You know what? I don't care. I will always remember him as page.

I don't know. You got to, it's about the shirts. Like, because look, I don't know if you've been to the Hall of Fame. But I have many times. It's wonderful.

It's really nice. I highly, if you all football, I do highly recommend it just for all people. And, you know, they sell shirts. It's like the logo and like all the cool lettering.

And on the back, it's got like all the names of that. And I need more people on the shirt. Damn it. trying to, oh, okay, now I'm thinking. Yeah, no, I'm just saying, like, it's all about the shirt. When it comes to the Hall of Fame, it's all about the shirt. People need, people must consider the shirt.

Like, consider it. What about my shirt, Chris? What about my shirt? But, yeah, I mean, Venetary. I mean, even on our graphic, I put him as a pat just because, you know, three of his four rings came from there. And they all, all those sewer bowls really did rest on his leg. So, yeah, I like them. I do.

Also, Larry Fitz getting in, like I said, perfect. Drew Breeze, probably top high QB all time getting in. Craig, I said it's been past time. Kekly, huge. So, yeah, honestly, all well-deserved. I can't complain. Fair enough. I was, I was trying to search to see if I could find.

because randomly when you were like it depends on the shirt, this and that. And the quarterback that came to mind for me for some reason was Jim Plunkett, right? And I was like, is he in the Hall of Fame? I doubt. But he's not. He's in the College Football Hall of Fame.

I don't know why I thought he was in the Hall of Fame because I was just like, well, he started with the Patriots and he spent most of his time with the Patriots and then he went to the Raiders for a couple of years and want to ring. But anyways. Yeah.

So in terms of this year's Hall of Fame, yeah. I guess the other thing I would really point out is like Roger Craig because he was inducted and Roger Craig's name was kind of thrown around a little bit because unfortunately involved with the Belichick craft scenario of not being inducted into the Hall of Fame. And one of the voters, I guess, was like, I voted for Roger Craig. because he had been on the ballot for a long time and figured it's time to get it in at this point.

And unfortunately, his name got thrown in like that. But I think like Roger Craig's still very deserving of being in the Hall of Fame. Very huge part of those, that 49er dynasty. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, well, you know, you got Joe Montana. and Jerry Rice and Primetime and Charles Haley and all them. But Roger Craig gets so underrated and it's really not right. Yeah.

But like I feel you mentioned those Niners Dynasty in the 80s and you have to mention Roger Craig. And a lot of those other guys that were on those teams are already in the Hall of Fame. So there you have it. Blue Kee, I'm very glad that. Lou Keekely got in. He deserved it. Yeah.

Stats don't show the type of football mind that he has or that he had. It's unbelievable. All right. We're going to take a quick break. When we come back, we're going to get into some more awards, including coach of the year, offensive player of the year, and defensive player of the year. This is the Homer's podcast.

It may not have always showed it in the stat sheet, but you can see him making throws when he needs to make the throws. Back-to-back games where he has three touchdowns. Someone's got to get that six or seven spot. He's an elite wide receiver as a rookie. Truly a lose-lose scenario for both sides. All right.

Let's talk about Coach the Year won by Mike Vrable. This was really up between obviously Mike Frable, Ben Johnson, Liam Cohen. Those were really the three top guys that. McDonald. And Mike McDonald. And Kyle Shanahan had too. He was also a nominee. But it was Mike Brable by a billion. And for good reason.

I mean, it's the biggest turnaround for a team in NFL history. I think even outside of the Super Bowl, this is the, it was the biggest turnaround in NFL history. Yeah, it was. And I see a lot of people in the comments saying things like, oh, all the other coaches were Rob. No, I'm sorry. Ben Johnson inherited a really stacked team. And the thing with the Bears, I don't know if the Bears were bad, but we did say they were the team that was a coach away. That's what we all said, is that the Bears were a coach away. He walked into a good situation.

Leon Cohen, I'll definitely give credit for. But the Jags were a wonky team. I don't know if they'll be able to do it again next year. Shanahan would have absolutely deserved it. Basically, like I said, working some real necromancy on that Niners roster. and McDonald as well, but the Seahawks were solid last year. So I don't know. I just still think it's a variable, like you said,

the biggest turnaround in NFL history. So, I mean, that's really what it has to be. And going to the Super Bowl, which I know it's a regular season award, but that is just coach of the year. And honestly, if you think differently, then you're just a hater, truthfully. Yeah, and like you said, like all of those coaches,

I mean, I'm talking like the newer coach, Well, Mike McDaniel had been in year two at that point or at this point. But in terms of like Cohen and Johnson, they had a good roster just needed the right guy at the helm to lead them at that point. And Mike McDaniel had been building something since last year. So, yeah. Mike Rayble, baby. I love him. Have you seen all the videos of him being like, yeah, I think we're just going to cut off six inches?

Yeah, I did see that. so funny. You dirty dog. You dirty dog, Mike. Speaking of Pat's coaches, Josh McDaniels winning assistant coach of the year. Look, I know the popular opinion here is Vance Joseph got robbed, but the Broncos' defense was good last year and it was good this year. For New England, you had a bottom three outfit on offense and you brought it into the top

10, maybe like the top five. I don't know if they were like five or six. that turnaround that fast without a true game-breaking wide receiver one with no like real like elite elite elite weapons and you know outside like Drake May but like you know you don't have someone like Bijon you don't have a guy like Puka

you don't have anyone like that yeah I'm sorry that that is assistant coach of the year yeah and we talk we end up talking about it too for earlier when we were recording some content for socials. Patriots have one of the best third quarter scoring teams in the league, too. Or actually, they do have the best third quarter scoring football team.

Just a random staff for you. You mentioned Van Gogh, though, Vic Fangio, Brian Flores, Clint Kubiak also up there as well. And obviously, Kubiak for good reason, too, considering he just got Iron as head coach. So in terms of the players of the year, offense player of the year went to Jackson, Smith, and Jigba. It's too bad Druski.

It doesn't really, didn't really know how to pronounce his name. Wow. Master. That's fine. So, yeah, J.S.N. Drake May, Chris McCaffrey, Pukin, Bijon, where you're the finalist,

J.S.N. one. I mean, you could make. make a great case for all those guys as well. I would have loved to also see Drake May as offense player of the year, but I mean, JSN was on the verge of potentially cracking 2000 at one point and undoubtedly the number

one wide receiver in the league. Yeah, absolutely. Once again, this was just well-deserved. J-S-N is the engine that makes the Seahawks offense go. It doesn't run through Darnal. It doesn't run through K-9. It runs through JSN and he's

he deserved it and more. Yeah. This just came to mind. I just realized we were supposed to be doing this, but comparing what we our predictions were from the beginning of the season. Do you have your

predictions, Chris, like actually? No, I, I, I, I don't. Because I have mine. I have mine. I'm a terrible person. I'm a terrible person, man. Well, I'm just glad you didn't need me to tell you that. I'm joking.

I'm a big Chris fan if you watch the show. We're all big Chris fans. But I'll tell you right now, my MVP, because we talked about Stafford, I had Joe Burrow. My offensive player of the year was Jamar Chase. What other position we talk about? We talked about Coach of the Year. I did get that right.

I did say it was going to be Mike Rable. I made it was the homerism in me, but I chose that. And yeah, spoiler alert, I did not get any of the others right. Yeah. I think I had Lamar for MVP because I also had Ravens going on in the Super Bowl this year. I had it either Rable or Ben Johnson for coach of the year. And I think I also had Jamar for offense player of the year. Defense player of the year, Miles Garrett.

I mean. Yeah, easy. I had Michael Parsons, and my only saving grace is that he was a distant, distant, distant second before he tore his ACL. Once again, heal up, man. You're going to be good. No, for real. Like, no Miles Garrett, no ACL, Tara Miles, or Michael Parsons was winning defense player

of the year. That's for sure. Yeah. I think I think I had either T.J. water, Miles Gara winning defense player of the year, preseason. Offensive rookie of the year, Ted McMillan. I picked Gentie.

Look, I know that was the obvious one, like the shiny object, but can you blame me? I just didn't expect the Raiders' offensive line to be that putrid. I didn't sue me. Yeah. I forget who I had as rookie the year. Maybe it was Ted. Maybe it wasn't.

Maybe I said it Bucca. Yeah, I think. I think Adam might have said it Bucca, honestly. I don't know. Which crazy how far he fell off, but he was also in the running for rookie of the year.

Jackson Dart, Trebionn Henderson, and Tyler, Tyler Shuck was in the running for it too. Yeah, he played really well. He played solid this year. Well, we'll give him that. Especially down the stretch. I also just love the intro highlights for the nomination Trevion on Henderson was

the highlights of all the big runs he broke. out this year. Classic guys. Classic. Way to really sell that he's not winning offensive rookie the year. Yeah. Defense of rookie the year.

Carson Swessinger. Swayshinger. UCLA legend. Yeah. Yeah. My pick was so stupid. See, look, I said it at the time. I didn't expect it to age well.

Look, and this is on me. I tried to get cute. I said I didn't think it was going to be anyone in the first round. I thought long and hard about it. I chose the Ravens Edgerusher Mike Green because he was supposed to be a first round pick, even though I had my reservations about him given some of the stuff that happened off the field. But this is why I shouldn't get cute with it. But then again, I probably wouldn't have called Swessinger anyway.

But it is what it is. Yeah. It was well-deserved by Swessinger, too. the fact that he was on the browns and overshadowed by miles garrett means a lot of people probably haven't heard of him i mean there was a concerning amount of people with a concerning lack of ball knowledge in the comments just going who who who who like when they when they announced who it was it's like good god like turn on a game how do you not know ball like that and for what it's worth for those who don't know uh swessinger

You know, there's 17 games in a year, of course. He played in 16, started all 16, had 156 tackles, two and a half sacks as a pass coverage linebacker, three passes knocked away, and two interceptions. Yeah. That's all he needed to hear. I had Abdul Carter as my defensive rookie year preseason. I know that for sure. and I mean he was good sometimes

but I think once like the news came out about him being a bit of a problem in a Giants facility I think that kind of wrapped it up but yeah who'd you say you had preseason for that

Mike Green on the Ravens Nice Come back player of the year Christian McCaffrey well deserved well deserved. Other nominees for this

was Stefan Diggs, Aidan Hutchinson, Trevor Lawrence, and Dak Prescott. But I mean, Christian McCaffrey was also being, was also nominated

for, of course, MVP in player of the year, our offense player of the year. So I think that tells you all you need to know about the type of season that McCaffrey had with the shit

that he had to deal with last year as well. yeah uh definitely deserved it i chose aiden hutchinson for mine and to be fair he did have i think like 14 and a half sacks or something like that this year so he wasn't undeserving it's just mcalfrey's staying healthy is like you know it's like seeing a unicorn kind of no shade to mcalfrey he's a great guy and a great player yeah but you kind of had to give it to him concerning the fact the rest of the Niners team falls apart. Damn, that substation, get rid of the substation, guys.

Come on. For real. It's worth a shot, even if scientists are iffy on it. Well, I'm sorry. Getting rid of the substation is worth a shot. You have to. You just have to. Protector of the year, went to Joe Tuny.

There's really no way to guess. Protector of the year, man. It's really not. Well, deserve, though. He's a beast. Like when he retires, he is going to the Hall of Fame. Yeah. So there were actually two rookies of the year, the AP and the Pepsi NFL rookie of the year.

The Pepsi NFL rookie of the year was Tyler Shuck. Who let Pepsi decide anything? I don't know. I don't know. And the Walter Payton man of the year was Bobby Wagner. Well deserved. If you watched it and talk about, you know, the stroke awareness, stroke prevention, the story with his mom, it's really, it's really powerful stuff. He totally deserved it, you know, like if you know about the work that he does, it's, it's truly amazing.

100% well deserved. I mean, it's Walts are paying man at the year. Like whoever wins at it, like everyone's deserving of it because. Yeah, literally all the teams, like everyone they put out, deserves it in some capacity. And there's really no like, well, who deserves it more? Now it's just they're all doing great work. Yeah.

I think there is one where I saw it was Blake Bortles on part of my take. And he's like, yeah, you know, because he was up for man of the year or something like that. And he ended up losing. He's like, what, feeding and giving water to the entirety of freaking Africa and I can't win Walt Japan Man of the Year. dude that's one of those things where you can't say it think it if you want but you can't say it i think it was well after you're retired but yeah i mean i know i know but it's like dude that's come on why are you doing it for the award bro yeah i'm not saying he is but it's like you can't

you can't say that yeah no um well that's all the scheduled content we have for you i got guess the only other thing that I have really on my mind is we didn't mention when we were talking about Tet, we didn't mention what he got some hot water with earlier today. Yeah, he said a very salty word on like a video game stream or something like that, and he apologized. That's where it starts and that's where it ends. Also, you know what? I got a bone to pick, actually, with the NFL honors. the woman who read off coach of the year,

how do you screw up the pronunciation of Rabel? Yeah. It's Mike Verbal. It's like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, look, I don't know. Look, I don't want to come off as too harsh. Look, I'm sure it's a big moment. I just, I feel like I'm being harsh. I don't want to, like, trash that, but verbal?

Yeah. Verbal. Like, it's not V-E-R, it's V-then. you know what it's fine like it's party more than anything like I don't want to just pile on because a lot of people were doing that and that's that's not who we are here I just it caught me off guard and they didn't get a chuckle out of me yeah I mean the honors in general just felt like a mess like they were using madden clips as actual clips at one for highlights and whatnot that was very weird yeah you mentioned the coach verbal thing uh the druskey incident that's a talked about that and fake crowd noise was getting pumped in good god maybe it's not the pro bowl that's just the problem maybe it's this maybe it's everything maybe it's what it's happening like the rot is real and the rot consumes yeah and look there's a cultural rot there that i think that's going on that you know with NFL honors like the NFL in general I mean like the

product on the field is good, but it's the everything else, like the, the sizzle to the product on the field's steak is, it's a little lacking and I'm not going to lie. Yeah. I'm just the messenger, though. Yeah.

I definitely think that they need, look, I like John Hamm, but I feel like they need a new host for next year, or I know they're going to get a new host, but I feel like they're going to get it. You know, who I, I want Dave Chappelle. Yeah, let's get Chappelle up.

Why not? Come on. Would that not be funny? Yeah, it'd be great. And coming from somebody who has seen Dave Chappelle live, I am 100% comfortable putting my stamp of approval on that and saying he's very funny. Yeah. Do it.

NFL. Do it. We must. Send it. Yeah. I guess the other thing I was going to talk about from the Ted McMillan video. in general. It's just,

just how funny it was in general, because like, everyone gets hyped up, right, when you're playing video games. Not like, for me, not to the point where I'm saying,

saying a slur, of course, but, um, CJ might think otherwise, but, I wasn't going to say it. I was so close to saying something to the effect of,

oh, I doubt it, but no, no, I don't think any of us on the show would. No, no. But anyways,

and so you know I get the emotion of feeling hype but it's just the reaction of like you know he says the N word and it's the reaction of the girl and she's like wait wait is he black yeah this is one of those things where it's like I heard about it and I just say well I don't have a horse in this race yeah I'm not going to be a word you're backwards into the bushes like, okay, dude, this ain't my place to comment on it. I'll see you guys tomorrow. Yeah, I'll let someone else decide that one. I mean, it's been quite a quick show.

I guess we'll spend another five minutes real quick to talk about things that I'm now getting mad about in terms of the Drake May, Matthew Stafford, MVP. Dude, let it go. Well, you mentioned... As a Pat's fan, do you want the MVP curse? No, no, you do not. Well, I'm just saying that like the... So Steve Baralt tweeted this. Or actually, pardon me.

This is a different tweet. Chris Brockman tweeted this. It's clinically insane that a vote for Ken Anderson Cost Belichick, the Hall of Fame, and a vote for Justin Herbert cost, Drake me MVP. I'm surprised we never thought about that until now. Never mind the Ken Anderson

vote and Belichick but the Herbert vote. That could have gone to Drake May we would have seen our first co-MvP since 2003. Imagine that. You know, coming from a

Pat's fan I really don't know how I feel about co- MVP. No. I just I don't like it. I mean, I don't know. If it comes down to it, like, yeah, that's how it gets voted.

Like, I mean, think about 2003, like McNaren, Pannan, Manning, we're having all-time years. Manning, of course, more than ever. But, like, you know, you get to a point where you really can't decide. You get a tie. Yeah. I mean, like, I hear you. I understand it. it, but I just, I just, I don't, I still don't like it.

Fair enough. Fair enough. All right. That's all the scheduled content that we have for you today. Super Bowl special coming out tomorrow at 8.m. We're going to be talking about Super Bowl prop bets, including Gatorade, coin toss. You name it. I'm going to be doing, uh, anytime touchdowns as well.

and taking predictions on who's going to score. And, of course, our Super Bowl game picks. Maybe, oh, we're also going to do a draft for it as well. We're going to do the draft. That's right. Yeah, okay, you know it. I can't wait. I can't wait for that as well.

I'm very excited. That was fun last year. Yeah, I'm very excited to see how we draft out the Patriots. That's going to be fun. Absolutely. See if Drake made. gets drafted. Yeah.

I don't know. What wait? Wait till Sunday. You'll find out. But yeah, it should be a good one. And, of course,
