last time that we were in here. Football season was fun?
But my god, I am glad it's over.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 4: Let's see, like eleven weeks straight on the road, so
I am glad that it is over. Get a chance
to be home seven straight days looking forward to that
had fun, you know, the whole the whole journey was fun.
Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong. Last week was a lot of fun.
Speaker 4: Hosting the Super Bowl in your home state, and they
did such a great job, which I know we'll get
into throughout the show. But it is good to be
back and have a normal schedule this week.
Speaker 2: Elandra, what's up girl? How we feel? Great?
Speaker 3: Work last week? How was how was posting in the
birthday on Friday?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Post Malone was so fun.
Speaker 6: I'm really glad that you ended up convincing me to
go to it, because you know, I was a little
flip floppy at first, but I'm glad that I went
because it was so much fun. Like me and my
neighbor had the best time while we were there. So
great birthday overall because I also got to interview Dustin
Poier on my birthday, So it was just like a
surreal I don't know, hopefully a good sign for what's
to come this year.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Alandra on a Jamis level run with Stapleton into
Poier into Posty. Yeah, the nice little trio of of
moments there.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Jamis was the highlight of this week.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean there's like so much Jamis moments to
break down, but we'll get there as well later. If
you're a listening on the radio, who couldn't see bet
has the camera switched over to a Laandre Taylor behind
the glass there, Taylor doffed his zip up hoodie to
reveal a Tom Brady Buccaneers jersey. I can only imagine
what take you're about to start the show with today.
Speaker 2: What is going on?
Speaker 7: This is not a knee jerk reaction on my point,
it's going to sound it is not. I want the
Patrick Mahomes Tom Brady debate to end, Guys, I want
I wanted to stop. No, listen, listen right now you're
going to say Tyler, you're having a knee jerk reaction.
Tom Brady lost three super Bowls, correct my eight total
of fifteen points. This is the second blowout for Patrick
Mahomes and the Super Bowl. Now he also thirty one
to nine head to head to Tom Brady just a
few years ago. Yeah, Patrick Mahomes seven interceptions in five
Super Bowls Tom Brady played and ten of them only
had six twenty one to six touchdown interception ratio of
Patrick Mahomes ten to seven. I just like Patrick Mahomes
is a great quarterback. If he retired today, he would
be a no doubt top five quarterback of all time.
He's not Tom Brady goes, oh they after a Super Bowl?
Speaker 3: God, oh man, this is this is some truly master
level taking here, Taylor.
Speaker 2: So so let's deconstruggle.
Speaker 3: So you're just ignoring the fact that Patrick Mahomes, you know, arguably,
if he wants, is going to play like another ten years.
Speaker 8: I'm gonna argue that he's going to play another ten.
Speaker 2: Saying you're saying the debate is settled.
Speaker 3: Although Patrick Mahomes could still like the surpassed Super Bowls,
will vps all that all these sorts of things.
Speaker 7: First off, I didn't have the debate before this game.
I don't think he's going to get seven super Bowls.
Speaker 3: Well, of course, not because it's absurd, Uh, it's it's
it's damn near impossible.
Speaker 2: It's let be done by one man.
Speaker 3: So like, yeah, I agree with you saying he's not
going to do it, definitely on the on the easier
is not that heavy of a lift.
Speaker 2: But I don't know that I could support you.
Speaker 3: And the idea that this debate is over was last
night a big missed legacy opportunity. Absolutely not unlike I mean,
because not only would a super Bowl have brought him
one closer to that impossible number that Tom has, but
it would have been the three peet and everything else,
something that had never been done before, a crown jewel
that even Tom or something.
Speaker 2: But once again we learn.
Speaker 3: Just how hard it is to win in this league
and how close you can get only to come up short.
And dada, I would also do forget dude. I mean,
Tom lost to Eli Manning twice. You know a nine
and seven, Johnny.
Speaker 8: He lost to Eli Manning twice.
Speaker 7: The quarterbacks that Patrick Mahomes has beaten, Jimmy Garoppolo, who
is no longer a starting quarterback in the NFL. Jalen Hurts,
who was in his third season in his first Super Bowl,
and then just last year, Brock Party seventh round draft
pick who was also what's first Super Bowl?
Speaker 2: And how are you okay?
Speaker 3: I'll uh, you know what, because because I'm impressed with
how sharpened your knives were for this fight that I
had no idea was going to open.
Speaker 2: The show after the super Bowl.
Speaker 3: I'm just going to accept that I'm dealing with a
psychopath and I'm going to allow you the day and
just walk away. So I would say, you are right,
You are right. Congratulations. Patrick Mahomes is no.
Speaker 2: Tom Brady and he never will be.
Speaker 3: You and you just enjoy your Tom Brady Bucks jersey
back there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, why do you own that?
Speaker 7: Because I love Tom Brady. He's the greatest quarterback of
all time. Simple answer.
Speaker 8: I mean, that's that's as simple as it gets, guys.
Speaker 9: True.
Speaker 5: True.
Speaker 6: If we're giving off takes right now, I'm just gonna
say real quick, and I was gonna say this for
a Weekend Loser, but that was the worst Super Bowl
halftime performance.
Speaker 5: That I have ever witnessed in my entire life.
Speaker 3: So we're diving into it, okay, And I like Kendrick Lamar.
Speaker 2: I know that's what's weird.
Speaker 9: Man.
Speaker 6: I I like Sissy was she was, but it was
a terrible show.
Speaker 5: The sound was horrible.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I find it. I find it hard
to disagree. Uh and and again I'm I'm I'm with you.
Kendrick is probably in my top three top five most
listened to artists of all.
Speaker 2: Time, like, regardless of genre.
Speaker 3: He's one of the few guys that when when when
he releases an album, you know, I I immediately like
hop on it and listen to it all the way through,
not just like starting with the hits and then kind
of slowly discovered the album more and more.
Speaker 2: Like I guess, I don't know. I don't need.
Speaker 3: To too far trying to establish the fact that I'm
a fan, but I am a big fan. Damn is
one of the greatest albums of all time without it
now but whatever, So it's interesting and you know what's funny,
It's like again, I don't even the performance wasn't awful
in a vacuum in my opinion something it's worse than others.
Speaker 2: I'd tell you what.
Speaker 3: I don't think it was awful in a vacuum, and
it's an interesting symbolism and whatnot.
Speaker 2: But but.
Speaker 3: In the context of the city, the musical history, how
good Lauren Daigel trombone Shorty Dzu John Battiss, like, how
good all the run up? Oh the Southern Band playing
with a Harry Connig Junior, Like, how good all that
was in the run up to it? And then again
the historical musical scene that you could grab from in
New Orleans. To have no ill Usians or nods to
them was borderline insane to me. Yeah, And so again
I don't think I hate the raw performance, maybe as
much as others, but it came off as really flat
and really missing the mark. I think in context of
how what a celebration of louisiand of the entire weekend,
then how good all the pregame was? And then you
did that and it was just like, Okay, we're still doing.
Speaker 2: The Drake Beef thing. Yeah, like, okay, it's not about Drake.
What are we doing here?
Speaker 4: It was for a very small audience too, Like we
hosted a Super Bowl party and like four teenagers were
bobbing their head in the corner and everybody's like, what's
he saying. Yeah, I'm getting accused of being like racist
and a boomer online and everything, and it's just like,
I don't.
Speaker 5: Know, wait, so that is crazy.
Speaker 8: So like obviously that is not going to say that
for the West Coast.
Speaker 4: Dude, it's from Compton. That like that makes sense? Yeah yeah,
And I'm like you like, yo, we run up. Serena Williams,
also from Compton. Yes, would like in itself, Like I'm
not saying it was bad, but just with everything you
had building up to it, it didn't fit the same vibe.
Speaker 6: It's also like super Bowl halftime show has a vibe too,
and that wasn't it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you were.
Speaker 3: Saying like a little more poppy, a little more grandie, like.
Speaker 5: Like hype me up. Yeah, none of it hyped me up.
Speaker 6: None of it had me being like I don't know,
Like when Justin Timberlake did it a couple of years ago,
I was hype did it?
Speaker 5: Bruno Mars, like when did it?
Speaker 6: And then like the Red Hot Chili Peppers came out
with him and they did give it away Like that
was awesome, but it.
Speaker 2: Felt more like the weekend.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like that didn't get me fired out at all,
and you're like waiting for somebody else to come with him,
and then nobody ever did, and you're.
Speaker 3: Like, oh, it's over at least at least of the weekend.
Though we got the memes of loss the Golden House
of Mirrors, where I don't even know that we'll get
memes from this.
Speaker 2: We didn't.
Speaker 7: I mean, we didn't really have We didn't have a
set change, you didn't have anything. Look, shocker, guys, that
is not my musical genre of choice. It's my brothers.
My brother's twenty one years old. I mean, that's his
that's his area. I was talking to him last night,
like during the halftime show, and he was like, he's
just not the guy.
Speaker 8: He's not He's not big enough to do this show.
Speaker 3: No, I'll disagree with that.
Speaker 2: I mean, Kendrick Lamar is like, what I mean, I
don't know, I went the world.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's fine, but but.
Speaker 4: I think I think what a lot of people are
saying is it doesn't reach maybe the audience that's so
broad watching the Super Bowl.
Speaker 3: I just disagree with this said he's not big enough
to do the show's opinion.
Speaker 2: No, No, I know.
Speaker 4: Yet when he plays the song, everybody watching the super
Bowl or eighty percent have to be like, oh, that's that.
Speaker 2: Well, he has that catalog. Though they didn't play a
lot of.
Speaker 4: I don't think for like a certain like every demographic
that watches the Super Bowl, I.
Speaker 3: Don't know that they played a lot of his biggest
commercial hits though, Like they played some stuff off his
new new albums.
Speaker 2: No, I know, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: And then they should have again, like you gotta have
Wayne and others out there, like you gotta have some
of the New Orleans backdrop and combined with them and
do their songs.
Speaker 2: It's it was. It was. It was a bit too
cerebral and a bit too uh new.
Speaker 5: The best part of the performance.
Speaker 3: Uh it lacked, like y'all said, a little bit of
bombast and and and and kind of showmanship. But uh
but you know what did not to end on a
positive the pregame performances. I was loving all of the
run up uh to the game, like I said, lads
Lauren Daegil Trembone Shorty, even that the gy Got tribute
video that that was produced by Fox that they filmed
on on on on Bourbon Street, Southern Harry connic Junior,
The John bad teethed uh national anthem had goosebumps coursing
through my body.
Speaker 2: Dude, Like what what?
Speaker 9: What?
Speaker 2: What are?
Speaker 3: What are the most famous national anthems in history? Always
think about the old like hint one, I think it
wouldstock right. Yeah, the Whitney used.
Speaker 5: To want Chris Stapleton is recent, but it's pretty iconic.
Speaker 3: A few people mentioned that online when I was asking
for the most iconic ones. I think the bad Tea
should go down as like, in my mind, at least
this goes down as one of the more iconic one ever.
His wonderful jazzy New Orleans there, and he just exudes
an overwhelming positive energy.
Speaker 2: Does bass teeth, so.
Speaker 3: That smile, just the love that that comes out of
his face and his fingers and his voice.
Speaker 2: God, I love that man. So they all did awesome.
That was the the halftime show for me, shut out Southern.
They killed it.
Speaker 3: If you look, if you liked the halftime show, go
ahead and hoping the body for YouTube, je Juno consols
one of four five ESPN let us know what, well
you thought you liked about it, but just wasn't for me.
Speaker 2: But this was a massive ask for New Orleans.
Speaker 3: Let's get into the game when we get back, and
then we can talk about these.
Speaker 2: Around the game. Keep it locked right here on off
the bench.
Speaker 9: Off the bench, those critizens member back to sports talk.
Maybe off the bench.
Speaker 3: Was handing the guys welcome back, oh TV.
Speaker 2: Oh remember it's having a great.
Speaker 3: Day, all right, guys, Let's get into the game itself.
Yesterday as the Philadelphia Eagles dominate the Kansas City Chiefs
winning the Super Bowl, proving Patrick Mahomes is no Tom
Brady uh and and really creating a lot of an
resting storylines, especially for here Kellen Morten exitd coaching on tage.
Speaker 2: We'll get to do that in a bit and what
that means.
Speaker 3: But Jake, when you look at last night's game, I
know we're like, where, where does your head immediately go?
What do you what do you think was the biggest
storyline impressed you the most? It was a little free association.
You think about last night's game. What pops into your head?
Speaker 4: The Philadelphia Eagles defensive line. Yeah, it was the first
thing that popped into my head. They were dominant. The
Chiefs had no plan for them. They couldn't block them.
The Eagles got home with four consistently all night long.
And so when you get home with four, you drop
seven in the coverage, you're going to confuse even a
guy like Patrick Mahomes, and they confused him multiple multiple times.
He had really no idea what was going on because
he did not have time to process it. And to me,
like that was the biggest story. Now, Jalen Hurts played incredible.
Jalen Hurts is somebody that whatever the game needs him
to do, he can kind of change his play for
that singular game, and so he deserves a lot of credit.
But the Philadelphia Eagles defense, to me, and you look
at their defensive front and so many different players and
like it was guys that it wasn't necessarily just the stars.
I mean, Milton Williams had two sacks and they were
consistently just in.
Speaker 2: The backfield job.
Speaker 4: And to me, that was the difference in the game
because it got Mahomes office marker and they's such an
athletic front that he couldn't do all the improv stuff
that he normally does it well.
Speaker 3: And that's the thing it was. It was getting home
that defensive line. So zero blitzeres. That's like the big
tagline that everybody keeps talking about, right, zero blitzes, but
big fangio on the entire night and yet pressuring Patrick
Mahomes on sixteen of his forty two dropbacks a thirty
eight percent pressure rate.
Speaker 2: Eleven quarterback hits six sacks.
Speaker 3: But like you're talking about Jake somehow threading the needle
or accomplishing the goal that ever everybody always wants to.
Where you're getting pressure, but you're also you're so first off,
you're getting pressure without addingybody to the blitz and you're
doing it while maintaining disciplined rush lanes. Like you said
at the end there, Right, normally Patrick Mahomes has three four, five,
six moments where he scrambles.
Speaker 2: Extends in some way with his legs to get it done.
Speaker 3: But here, because of their discipline and how they rushed
him every time he sought to escape the pocket, there
was somebody there waiting on him with open arms.
Speaker 2: It was a consistent performance that boggled the mind.
Speaker 3: And it once again proves that there's no better way.
Speaker 2: And again cause you've said than done.
Speaker 3: It's a testament to how the Eagles have drafted, even
though Stick said it wasn't just stars. Is everybody getting done.
But there's just no better way to stop in the
league quarterback than if you can get pressure before. In fact,
one of the craziest sets that I read this year,
blitz is thing. This is the sixth time in a
Super Bowl where a defense has not run a single blitz.
Speaker 2: Those teams are six and zero, So you.
Speaker 3: Can feel how comfortable those defenses are in those games,
knowing what a distinct advantage that is, and shout out
to Vic Fangio, who was zero to eight against Patrick
Mahomes entering this game. The storyline, Jake, I mean, you
hit the big two to me in my mind, But
the storyline for me did start with Jalen Hurts because of.
Speaker 2: The narrative of his journey.
Speaker 3: Everything we highlighted last week, a bit of the always
the bride's maid, never the bride, being as good as
you can be, but never getting to call himself the best.
Right at Alabama, we all know what happened there, getting
so close sub to half. You still are so happy
your team won, Aster SAMs you the starting quarterback the
whole year, but it doesn't feel doesn't feel rights, he
saves him in the sec it goes to Oklahoma, It's
knocked out the playoff. There would have won a Heisman
any other year except Joe Burrow. Then he goes It's like, okay, well,
now I got to try to the next one. He
gets to the Super Bowl, has one of the best
Super Bowl performances we've ever seen, but one mistake ends
up costing him. And now Here two years later, after
a collapse in which him and his head coach were at,
you know, each other's throats, it.
Speaker 2: Looked like Navy he was all about to implode. Hell,
four games into this season.
Speaker 3: People thought Jalen hurts, maybe sucks, and this is all
this is all the context too. In the in the
middle of all this NFL career, he gets the big contract,
and he had all those great quotes about like, look,
you know, money's nice, what championships what it's about. But
he still had the big contract. It's like, oh, well,
can you win a championship?
Speaker 1: Now?
Speaker 3: Was he only there in the first place because he
was on a rookie deal? And now Here he SAIDs
two years after the most bitter disappointment of his career,
and he's a Super Bowl champion and a super Bowl MVP,
and he's someone who if you look out, he carries
himself the values he espouses.
Speaker 2: I find him.
Speaker 3: Incredibly tough to dislike, even with all that Alabama Crimson
Tide background.
Speaker 2: He is just he is likely.
Speaker 3: He is someone who you can say, if I played
with that man, I would follow him into battle.
Speaker 2: I would follow that man. And so you could see
him last night too.
Speaker 3: He's just so composed even after the game, as the
emotions are slowly starting to just seep through that that
kind of tough exterior that he's built up. And now
he's a super Bowl champion, a Super Bowl MVP, and
no one can ever take that away from him. And
he has super Bowl records. He broke his own Super
Bowl quarterback super Bowl Russian yard record, so perhaps with
the seven yards he had last timer, he's the only
quarterback in NFL history with multiple fifty yard rush games
in the Super Bowl First quarterbacks is Steve Young to
lead both teams in Russia. I mean, just a great dame,
great moment for Jalen Hurts, who now his legacy it's
bonafide take a massive step forward and he joins the
rare fight club and avoids the great but never cigar
because who knows if you ever make it back.
Speaker 2: But yeah, shout out to Jalen Hurtsman.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree with everything that you said. He's done
everything the right way. And in a day and age
where it's very easy to take your ball and go home,
he never really did that.
Speaker 2: Even when he transferred.
Speaker 4: He waited a year to see how it played out,
didn't go his favor, and when his team needed him,
he stepped up and won an SEC championship. And then
at the end of the year he goes and moves
on after that, but not you know, quitting on his team,
not stepping away. Then he goes and has a monster
year at Oklahoma and everything that he's done again he's
done the right way and his head down. Yep, you
don't hear any thing about Jalen hurts in the locker room,
all positive things. All his teammates love him, and so
it's very easy to root for him.
Speaker 3: And then obviously, storyline three and for many one has
to be the Saquon Barkley arc where last night he
ends up with a nice total yardage game. Now credit
to the Chiefs, they did a good job of shutting down,
shutting down Taquon on the ground, even though I do
appreciate and partially this is played with the lead, but
I do appreciate the Eagles still running to give him
twenty five carries.
Speaker 2: Right, there's something he.
Speaker 3: Said for sticking with that and being like, Okay, look,
we're still going to try this if you ever start
to try to prioritize guarding aj Brown and Avante Smith, like,
we are still gonna gonna take our shots.
Speaker 2: And obviously Jalen Hurts his legs.
Speaker 3: Were huge, the scrambles and they would drop into coverage
and even finding Saquan a couple times through the air.
But yeah, for Saquon Barkley Man, he finishes with over
twenty five hundred rush yards in a single year, breaks
Terrell Davis's record, but more importantly, punches back for the
value of running backs in the modern NFL age and
completes the complete and total dismantling embarrassment of the New
York Giants in their front office. Speaking of for an office,
Jeez Roseman freaking relax. So Eagles team that he's assembled
is actually insane, Like, again, how do I say they
have Devonte Smith aj Brown, Saquon Barkley, and Jalen Hurts
on the same team. Oh and that's a beginning to
an offensive line that's all like six ten, seven hundred
pounds without an ounce of fat on them. That's not
even getting into the incredible defense with All prod Zach Bond,
First team All Pro linebacker, freaking Cooper Dejane breaking the
curse white quarterback picks six in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 4: Crazy crazy, the entire defense, the way that they've drafted,
I mean it, it's just remarkable, remarkable how they've drafted
and all those you know, first round picks that they
used on positions that a lot of people don't want
to use first round picks on, like you know, up
front in the front seven. And then you're right, like
they got two of the best corners in the draft. Yeah,
and I mean Mitchell somebody way, ye like, even though
he dominated the Senior Bowl, like you still got to
go take a chance on that guy because he's coming
from Toledo. Well they did, and it certainly has paid
off for him. So like every button they pushed has
worked in their favor. They needed to get better at
that position, they went and got two rookies. They trusted
their rookies. They didn't try to hide them in the
Super Bowl. Yeah, they gave them the ability to go
be who they've been all season long. And so everything
they they did, every plan that they had, every button
that they pushed, worked in their favor.
Speaker 3: And to go back to, uh the sa Quan what
a what a moment right where when he leaves New York,
they're telling him, no, you're not good enough. We just
gave Daniel Jones forty million and we didn't pay him
forty to hand off to a fifteen million dollar running back.
Speaker 2: We don't need you.
Speaker 3: You're two injured, you're not good enough. And uh, well
he proved them wrong. Because make no mistake, I mean,
as as great as Jalen Hurts and the weapons are
that we just talked about, the single biggest difference with
this year's team compared to the last great Eagles team
is Saquon and Kellen Moore, who were about to talking
about more in a bit here. Kellen Moore's ability to
after four games at the beginning of the season say,
you know, what, what are we like? What are we
really doing here?
Speaker 2: What are we like? Why? Because again, the Eagles have
said this.
Speaker 3: When they originally signed Saquon, the idea was still going
to be Jalen Devontae Smith A. J Brown's kind of
the engine in Saquan as the supplementary piece, and Kellen
Moore's kind of like, you know, I don't think I mean,
we have incredible.
Speaker 2: Run blockers up front.
Speaker 3: Everybody's dropping a too high, you know, prioritizing stopping the
passing game. Why don't we lean into something that we
have that nobody else does in Saquon Barkley and let
him be the engine and go off meta and go
run first. And the results speak for themselves. So shout
out to Saquon Barkley as well.
Speaker 2: I mean, an incredible season.
Speaker 4: He might have saved a entire position group by himself,
well with Derek Henry and Josh Jacobs as well. But
obviously when you finish it with a super Bowl, it's
going to kind of stand out even more than the others.
Speaker 2: And it was one of the most special seasons that
we've had.
Speaker 4: And I know, nine guys have only ever done two
thousand yards, but for him to get the you know,
the record overall because of the postseason run that he
had as well. I mean, it's a top three running
back season that we've ever seen.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's it's truly truly mind blowing. Chad saying
they're glad that Taylor Swift was booed. Here's what I'll say,
Taylor Swift, dude, never forget who gave a million dollars
to flood relief after the twenty sixteen floods. Like, I mean,
you know, you can feel however you want to feel
about her music or whatever, but like she's been an
ally to Louisiana for whatever that's worth.
Speaker 2: I saw you move your mic when I mentioned Taylor Swift.
Taylor No, so he's named after No Take?
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, when we get back, let's talk about
Kellen Moore, who all signs are saying should be the
next head coach of the New Orleans Saints. Did last
night make you a little more excited? Less excited? What
do you didn't get the chat? We'll talk about it next.
You're on off the bench, Off the bench, go to
All Star. Toyota of batrouge dot com. All start toota
bat rush. I had a great experience at All Star
last week. Act Super Week Insane. We got a flat tire.
Tire just completely shredded. But I just recently got new tires,
right I was still under warranty, and so who gets
me in there gets the job done right away.
Speaker 2: You get to order the tire.
Speaker 3: But that was okay because I've got a rental car,
Mislea Sessions the next day tires doe and like I
I could go on with my week without a hitch,
a very busy week where I had to stay on schedule.
Speaker 2: All Star was there and that's what you get as well.
Speaker 3: At service, things like the great warranty, great car, go
to all Start, to to Baton Rouge and let the
car of your future find it there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can go there today if you're buying new,
if you're leasing, or if you're renting. And T Bob
and I have taken advantage of all three of those
processes and you can't as well. And everything's going to
be available, So no matter what your needs are, they're
going to be met over at All Star, All Star
Toy at Bats.
Speaker 1: Welcome in to the best morning sports this show around
off the event with Hester and T Bob.
Speaker 2: You know, let's run.
Speaker 3: So what you heard right there was the Eagles head
coach Nick Sirianni on the postgame stadium a stage. I
haven't just gott in the trophy talking to Terry Bradshaw
and telling Kellen Moore, hey, man, come on, maybe let's
run it back one more year. Obviously pitching more to
stay after Kellen Moore has been is heavily expected to
be the next head coach of the New Orleans Saints.
At this point, the only thing that would stop him
for me, the next head coach of New Orleans Saints
would be a Billy Donovan esque change of heart. Uh,
every everything you know, the the ink is essentially dry.
That he flew back with he's flying back with Philly.
He's flying back with the team to Philly. Then the
process will officially continue. But look, if you're someone, here's
what I would say, and let me know if y'all agree.
I don't care where you were at with Kellen Moore
going into all of this. It's impossible to emerge from
watching him win a Super Bowl and not feel better.
So let's say you didn't like him, you still feel
a little bet about I'm let's say you loved him,
you still feel even better about him.
Speaker 5: At least.
Speaker 3: That's that's exactly where I was. I was pretty tepid
on him. It's kind of like, okay, you know, making
that again.
Speaker 2: I think he's taking over terrible situation. We're getting all that.
But I definitely feel better now. I like the game plan. Taylor.
Speaker 3: You just highlighted a very good play call during during
the that a lot of teams failed to do last night.
Speaker 7: No, we were we were talking about but failing to
put good teams away. It was the Chiefs had the ball,
they were going forward fourth and five around like the
forty five yard line. The ball gets batted down the
first play of that drive. Instead of sitting on the
ball to round the clock out, Hurts throws at the
Devonte Smith a forty six yard touchdown on the first drive. Yeah,
for first playoff that driver, right after stopping them on
four down. That's how you put good teams away.
Speaker 3: Which even Brady in the booth, who was who's I thought,
all right last night, even Brady in the booth gonna
highlight that was unexpected? No, what was not expecting a
shot play there? And yet it was the no, no, no,
the true stake through the heart. We will not even
allow you to make us Atlanta two point zero. Jake,
how do you emerge out of this thinking about Kellen Moore?
Speaker 2: I think you feel better about it.
Speaker 4: I think that's somebody that showed you within the season
that he can change based on his best players. Because
this is a team that last time they played the
Chiefs in the Super Bowl, they had to throw for
three hundred yards. Well, this DNA of this team was
not that. It was to run the football, take chances
when you could. And they did that, and they did
it to DeVante Smith, they did it to aj Brown,
they to Dotson, they did it to multiple players, knowing
everything was set up.
Speaker 2: Off the run.
Speaker 4: And if you're in New Orleans, you know that you
still have a very equality running back and you're not
going to put all the pressure on the quarterback.
Speaker 2: You have to be an efficient quarterback.
Speaker 4: So I think when you look at what he did
with Justin Herbert last year when he was a Chargers
O seed, they.
Speaker 2: Had to pass the ball, right, they didn't.
Speaker 4: They didn't have a running game, and so for them
like that's what they had to do.
Speaker 2: Well this year it was the complete opposite.
Speaker 4: And so that gives you hope that he's going to
see what he has, see what he has available to him,
and he's going to put that offense out there and
not try to force something that is not there and
just based off the candidates that you had and basically
everybody kind of saying no thanks, this does at least
feel like somebody that you can get behind.
Speaker 3: Well, and again, now that now that it feels like
this is going to be the guy, you know how
my brain works, some an eternal optimists start to like
get excited about things like.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd much rather him over Joe Brady.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's got way more experience. Uh, you know what,
I don't hate it either. Fifty and three as the
starting quarterback in college football, man used to.
Speaker 2: Leading other big burly men and used to winning. Now
you swing in.
Speaker 3: I also love a head coach of Nick Sirianni's caliber,
which is funny to say because people have called that
into question for whatever reasons. Find him being like the
winningest coach over the last three years. Head coach of
Nick Sirianni's caliber, pitching him on the stage after the
Super Bowl, I think that speaks to how much he
thinks of Kellen Moore, And so yeah, I think it's impossible.
And I've be saying the very funny thing to me
and I haven't nailed guys the right analogy here, so
maybe y'all can help me. But the funniest thing is
you look at this Eagles team and mentioned how he
roseman the GM. It's the best constructed team I've maybe
ever seen in the modern NFL, where they're just so
complete everywhere. As we also said, they added two All
pros in the offseason, the first time a team in
the Super Bowl has ever had an offseason which they
added two All pros to free agency.
Speaker 2: And that doesn't even get to the drafting with like
Jayla Carter, we did all.
Speaker 3: We know it all, right, what do you think Kellen
Moore's gonna think when he when he walks in at
the Saints lock crew coming from Philly. I mean, he's
just like the thing that I'm kind of thinking of.
It's like Gordon Bombay when he comes and sees the
Mighty Ducks for the first time and he's, you know,
he's got his like fancy limo and he's used to
living large and everything's good, and then he just has
this ragtag motley crew of misfits only I don't know
if anybody's got a knuckle puck in him. You know,
what is he gonna think when he walks in and there's.
Speaker 2: Mickey Lubitz, that er, Howie Rose. I mean, maybe Alvin
maybe maybe Ak.
Speaker 3: It's just like it's definitely one of those moments was
gonna be like, oh okay, like, oh we got okay,
we gotta work we gotta work it out for us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, got a lot to do here.
Speaker 4: I think he realizes that. I mean, that's that's probably
why it took so long to maybe get this this
deal done. I mean, he realizes it's not all sunshine
and rainbows. It's not just going to be easy. You
don't roll the helmets out there with the roster that
they have, the quarterback situation that they have, the age
that they have, the cap issues that they have.
Speaker 2: He's like, Mickey, you want to trade up? Really? Are you?
Speaker 6: Are you?
Speaker 2: Are you sure? I wonder this, I wonder how much
personnel authority I'll have? Probably zero?
Speaker 3: Alba bars Wana, It's like the guy walking into the
burning department pizza meme. Yeah, it's it's not unlike that,
except Jason maybe, like he said, maybe with a little more,
maybe maybe with a little more idea of that the
house is already on fire before he opens the door.
I wonder the quarterback who eventually choose for quarterback. I
think the most fun option would be to cut car
he signed Jamis and let our king return home and
finally get a chance to shine.
Speaker 2: But I know that boat has sailed. I just love
that man so much.
Speaker 6: I can a thousand percent get behind that. I will
never forgive Mickey Loomis or Dennis Allen Fron that ever, it's.
Speaker 3: Their greatest crime against the city. Yeah, who knows what
would have happened if you never got hurt anyway? Back
to Cullmore though, Back to Cullmore, uh again, Like I said,
I think the base takeaway here, it's impossible not to
be more excited than you were previously. And from reading
you know, articles about how he's formed his offense over
the years and how obsessive he is, it doesn't have
a lot of ices, just football crazy. He grew up
son of a career high school football coach. Great old
stories take about him scouring the internet for plays just
for fun, like trying to desperately just study studying West
Coast study studying all the old offenses and that now
over the years he's created some his own Frankenstein's monster
of a system that is truly a blend of a
little bit of everything. And one thing that Nick Underill
highlights and normans of football is digestibility. Where his offense
is somewhere in the middle of It's not like full
high school like cut the field that happened. It's a
fifty to fifty Reid and go, you know, like simple
call is not that obviously, but it's also not the
Sean Payton like fifteen minute play call, where at a
certain point it borders on the ludicrous. He's somewhere comfortably
in the middle.
Speaker 4: So I think we can come back and ask Tayte,
even though he's got a Tom Brady jersey on today,
like his thoughts because he's gone through the Keller Moore
true murience.
Speaker 2: It's true, so Kellen Moore probably probably going.
Speaker 4: To be your next coaching Nortons. I interviewed Spencer Rattler
and above memes. I'm trying to think if we had
any other Saints players and they were like wink wink,
hush hush, yeah, Keller Moore, so like they've been told
yeah that too.
Speaker 2: It is again.
Speaker 3: I think the only thing that stops it is if
he has a last second, just like I actually don't
want to do this, which I don't think.
Speaker 2: I think he's ready.
Speaker 3: You know, you walk off after Super Bowl like this
strike callle the irontt for sure you got the ring.
Good job, all right? When we get back, let's close
out of number one of OTB off the bench.

Speaker 1: Welcome back to the best morning sports show around sorta
it's off the Bench with Hester and t Bob.
Speaker 2: Oh what's that in? Y'all?
Speaker 3: Welcome back to oh TV wrapping up another football season,
super Bowl last night, and your next New Orleans Saints
head coach, like the evolved in the super Bowl and
you'll you'll were right earlier when you were talking about
Kendrick's catalog. He still didn't play the Kendrick hits, but
the Kendrick it or not, you're right, It's still not
like Usher or any of these.
Speaker 5: It's just like a caliber.
Speaker 6: And like whenever I when they first said that Kendrick
was going to be the Super Bowl halftime performer. Again,
I like Kendrick Lamar, but there's a difference between being
an artist and being an entertainer, and there are some
people that are both, and to me, Kendrick is more
of an artist than an entertainer, like Usher is an entertainer.
Speaker 5: Lady Gaga, she's an entertainer.
Speaker 3: Bruno Mars means the ultimate entertainer exactly. You let Bruno Mars.
So we were, me and my wife were having fun
on the drive over, and we somehow found in the
whole of looking up because we saw, like, oh, Taylor
sits like the seventy fifth most played artist on Spotify. Yeah,
Bruno Mars is number one, no way really number one
in the entire.
Speaker 6: Worlds he plays to everybody, like everybody likes Bruno Mars.
Speaker 5: Who doesn't like Funk?
Speaker 6: You know?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it isn't like pop. I think Sabrina Carboner was
like twenty five, which is kind of insane to me.
Speaker 5: That is kind of crazy.
Speaker 2: I forgot what the rest of the top five was.
Bad Bunny was number fun. I don't remember the rest,
but Danny that loved Bad Bunny. Yeah, remember I mean
that that too. That was the crazy thing.
Speaker 3: Like that year, I think that Bad Bunny might have
been remember one, no, no, like it might have been
number one in the world. And me, being an old
white guy, I had never heard of Bad Bunny and
Danny had to uh because I saw actually the first
thing it saw was on like popular. I know he
is saying, he's literally like one of those popular in
the entire world.
Speaker 2: That's out of touch. I am like that type of show.
Speaker 6: I thought Chris Stapleton was more popular than post Malone,
and then I went to the post Malone show and
I was like, oh, there's oh.
Speaker 2: There's no way. Yeah right, no, I don't know.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 4: But also that that the Chris Stapleton that you went
to was like very kind of exclusive. Yeah, because when
serious Pandora put those on, they don't want big crowd.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and the post Malone one was even.
Speaker 2: Yeah's a blind spot for me. I could be wrong, Yeah, yeah,
I mean I think post is definitely more famous. Yeah
he is.
Speaker 9: Uh.
Speaker 3: I'll say this, shout out post He because I loved
white iverson back in the day. But as soon as
I saw that cigarette of a looking human being, I
did not think he was gonna make it. I was like,
this is white boy, and this is a nice one
hit wonder. I'm glad he shout out Anthony Davis. Hell yeah,
but I did not think he was.
Speaker 2: Gonna make it. And I was so wrong.
Speaker 3: He's so tout, he's got broad range, He's really evolved
in a lot of ways.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean Almas mentions bad bunnies wrestling.
Speaker 3: That's when I first saw him, was taking a bumpet
like WrestleMania, and then Danny explained me, know, this is one.
Speaker 2: Of the biggest artists in the entire world.
Speaker 3: Then I got obsessed with Camil Hermone on the Peloton
app and she used to play.
Speaker 2: A lot of bad bunnies, So yeah, I love that bunny.
Ta ta. You went through the Calimore experience of Dallas.
Speaker 9: Uh.
Speaker 3: Now, granted to be fair, it's been a hell of
a journey for more in which he's proved a lot
post Dallas. But where should Saints Fans heads be at
IVANDID he is the next head coach.
Speaker 7: Great because he's had success in three spots with three
very different quarterbacks, Dak Prescott, justin Herbert Jalen Hurts. He's
made it work with all three of those guys, like
he was okay at Dallas. That was also his first
offensive coordinator job. Yeah, you could say, oh, their offense
got better without him, Yeah, but McCarthy had been there,
done that. He goes to LA that was not a
good coaching staff that was with him. He's also under Sirianni.
He's learned how to win he's been in a good organization.
Speaker 2: I think it's great.
Speaker 3: So there you go, guys straight from the horses mouth Taylor,
somebody who has lived through uh Keller Moore. And it's
a good point. I mean that those are there's a
three very different quarterbacks in which he had success with
all three of them. And look again, I I hate
that having to glaze all the Bama boys a little bit,
but shout out to a meet native Devonte Smith.
Speaker 2: You know he's from the boot. Did he go to Bama?
Speaker 3: Sure, but it's important. I still I still really enjoy him.
He's he's out there, little little you know, a little
little muggsy Bogues type A is a little like David
Versuskaliit this tiny little man out there battling amongst the giants.
Lost a state championship game in the superdomen twenty sixteen.
Speaker 2: I called that game. Oh you called that game?
Speaker 3: And now here he sits eight years later, after losing
forty thirty six, he was seated on the field. There's
pictures all over the internet making the rounds seated on
the field, tears in his eyes. And now eight years
later he's a Super Bowl champion with a beautiful touchdout.
Speaker 5: Catch, fifth player in history to win the Heisman, Natty
and the Super Bowl.
Speaker 6: True, I'm gonna give you the break to.
