Can I can I tell you something? Okay, let's go. Tell me something. I am coaching my son's two second grade, third grade flag football team this year. Okay, okay, so we had our first practice, Wednesday . Do you know anything about the flag? Because you know it's a little different. So look, my boys been playing now. This is their third year playing. So I've been going to all the games. I've been watching. They do seven on seven. They're still young. They're trying to get now, they're throwing the ball a little bit. It's mostly handoffs, mostly counters, you know what I'm saying? Flag pulling techniques. So yeah, I'm excited about it. My boy out there, Joey. The team name, listen, my older son, Joe y, he was born in Cleveland. He wants his team name to be the Cleveland Browns. My younger son, Jetty, his team name is the Pittsburgh Steelers. So I got a Steelers team and I got a Browns team in the house. So both of my boys, Jet was born in Pittsburgh, he's there. The Steelers are playing. And I got my boy Joey. He was born in Cleveland. And he's a Brown. Okay. Okay. All right. So do they ain't gonna never play each other? No, no, no. They did they different age groups. I got a first grader and I got a third grader. Okay. Yeah. At some point, at some point they they may. When they get to, when they get to when they get to high school, middle school, high school. Yeah. Yeah. College. College for sure. College for sure. Who uh who's going to want to go , you know, and play for your um moder and who's going to want to go and play for maybe some someplace different you know saying my both of my boys they so my older boy joey he's he's he likes sports. He's into it. My my thing is this. I'm not living vicariously through my children. I'm not forcing them to play sports. They don't have to play sports. I want them to do what they love to do. You know what I'm saying? So my oldest boy, Joey, he's getting into it. So if football's not his thing, sports, he's playing football and basketball. Keep it open. I just want him to be in team sports. I just want him to be involved in something. And whatever he likes, I'm gonna support it. My younger son, Jet T , my seven-year-old, he loves football. He's watching our highlight tapes. He knows TJ Watt, Minka Fitzpatrick, were his favorite players when I was playing for the Steelers. Loves, still, still loves TJ. So like that T I can't teach him. I can't, I can't teach him. He's he's dad. He's just trying to catch over the head, over the head fade balls. Just dad, throw me the ball. He's just trying to catch it over the shoulder. So, you know, I'm gonna sew into that. That's good seed. I'm gonna sew into that. I'm gonna keep giving him knowledge. Right now, try your best. It's not about how many touchdowns you score. I need effort, son. I need you to try your best. Be paying attention. You know what I'm saying? So that's where we at with it right now, Debo. I understand why one is kind of into the sport real hard into another one. Yeah, you know, it ain't really there. I'm gonna do this or that. You know what I'm saying? One was born in Cleveland, as you said, it's kind of something that, you know, grew up around. And he was like, yo, it's no hope there. And he was, I understand you had to get that out of him. Because when he came to, you know, Pittsburgh, he realized, like, oh, it is hope in you, you know, being able to win. He's seeing this. He's understanding this. And it's a it's a great thing for him. And your other son, he was born there. So he's like, hey, let's go. Football, football, let's go. Still us, you win championships. You know what I'm saying? It's not just for the, you know. No matter what I do, you manipulate it into that. I'm not manipulating nothing. I'm just speaking facts. The people . Like Joe, you told me something. I can't, I can't even speak. I can't even say what I think it was. I'm just giving my opinion, Joe. Okay, no, you do, all right, whatever devo all right for sure i'm just letting you know i'm coaching this football my boys out here we working and you just making it you that's why your son is this born in cleveland he just you know it's no hoe no i'm just saying like you know you said your other son, he's like really into, into, you know, he had something he he he he lived through something. You know this. He understood, you know, the the legacy. You know, your other son, he was in there, he was like, Yeah, I like the sport, you know what I'm saying, but you know, I'm into it, but I ain't into it, you know what I'm saying? Cause it was like parents. It was like no. Parents out here, people that that people that have children know you can't teach, you can't they gonna do what they wanna do. They gonna like what they're gonna like. It just happens. I ain't gonna give you that. I ain't gonna give you that. Yeah, they're gonna like what they want to like. They ain't gonna do what they want to do. I'm here to just feed it so and sowing the good seeds. I need effort. I need you to try your best. Yes, sir. That's what I need. And you talk about losing. That's where it starts. I'm just I'm just I'm just you know always doing that every time. Oh, I was just thinking like like I was just thinking like it just it hits me like that, you know what I'm saying? Because I was I was born and raised in Agron, Ohio. Okay. You know. And look at you now. And I I wasn't really a sports fan like that. I watched sports because my dad did it. You know what I'm saying? Sounded like my son Joe. And look where I look look and it wasn't until they went on head and left and they fought to keep those sorry colors that I transitioned. Guess where I transitioned to? Where'd you transition to? The Pittsburgh Stellars . Boy. And you see what it transitioned me into. I went from being a good for you, Debo. I'm glad it worked out for you. It worked out that's good. That's good. I'm happy for you. I'm happy for you. But it all started in Ohio . True statement. True state. True state. It can't take that from you. Can't take hey, you can't take it from me. I can't. That's you from that you from Ohio. I can't I can't even blame you for it because you ain't had no choice of where you went. You know what I'm saying? You went to who wanted you first, and they was like yeah we gotta get him you know yeah yeah you know all that good cleveland love uh uh that's yeah yeah yeah yeah okay yep from the fans uh yes yes sir yes sir organization something totally different. You know what I'm saying? When I shoot out my love, I'm giving it to the city and to the fans. Then people, what ? They embrace me with open arms. Yes. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Okay. Yes, sir . Joe. Yes, sir. And uh what's what's this guy's name? Ben Solid? Yep. He uh he said that the he he ranking the stillers as number one, you know what I'm saying? Well, no shit, you know. Finally, somebody come to the damn senses of uh uh over there ESPN, like oh, they're they're number one. Um uh what? That's uh that was the epiphany that y'all that y'all came to? No . No. We've been we've been saying this, babe. We've been saying this since from the gate. Omar Khan is cooking okay they made the man head oh snap they made the man head chef a couple years ago right uh but they didn't they didn't let him make his own menu and now he can now we don't went from um we don't went from like a a a no star a no star mission restaurant to right now we like a we like a two-star mission restaurant you know what i'm saying okay the only thing that would make it a three-star Joe is Joe Burrow. But hey, okay. Don't worry about nothing. I've been hey, I've been I've been working on it. Look, but that's what when I'm saying this too, Debo is when we're looking at this of them ranking the steel as being the top team, it's because everybody's worried about right now, quarterback. If you didn't address the quarterback, quarterback, quarterback, all right, what since what we would have what we would have did? Malik, Mal ik uh the quarterback from um the man that signed from Miami uh the the quarterback that signed some Miami yes that was the only quarterback that was really out there so if we didn't make that decision and didn't think that was the move we addressed what we needed. We lost our running back. We went and got uh Riddle. We we went we needed a wide receiver. We went and got Pittman Jr. Do you know what I'm saying? So what we're doing is making moves in the right spots, getting our team right, building, like Ben said, build the team first, and then you get the quarterback, and everything's gonna be good. Because quarterback don't gotta do nothing crazy. Quarterback gotta come in there and be a legit quarterback, not do too much. So I'm I'm loving the way, and that's why my man Ben is kind of understanding what's going on. No question, baby. They said we need a receiver. We said check. Check, mate. We lost, we lost game. Well, they said, okay, check. Here come Dottle . Okay. They said we need DV. We said check, check. We went on here, got two. And then signed uh sign signed uh what's his name? Um uh uh Sante Jr. Yeah immediately to make sure we had something else before we even got the other two, which was uh what was it, Dean and Brisker. Mm-hmm. Like, what we what we talking about ? What we talking about, Joe? Then you talking about your D tackles too. Can't forget about the big man, hey, hey. Can't forget about the big man that's gonna let Queen run free. Sebastian Joseph Day. Yes. Run stopper. We need that. Big check . Take up two. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. And the linebackers do what they're supposed to do. Let them run free. It's still early. And the all the players that we got is names, but each person is still gonna have to perform. You know what I'm saying? Like looks good on paper. We don't know. You know what I'm saying? We're trying to get things done. We're not saying we you gotta win it on the field. We gotta get it done. It all gotta come together. But I'm liking the play. You gotta get it there there. You gotta get him before you can go ahead and see how it's gonna transpire. We got what we have. Well, we got what we have . Where you going, Joe? My man, I don't my my my phone, my my joint about the die. Listen, we got what we have, and this is what we needed to do. We got guys that played this well last year and now they're here. And hopefully they keep elevating, okay . Number one. Yes. Being over there, ESPN . Oh , what what a great uh animal understand. I don't know. Observation. Observation was not really observation. You're probably listening to us. But hey, we ain't gonna trip on it. We appreciate you. Next time, just give us some credit. All right. But you know who they got at uh what is that? 22 ? Who uh Cleveland Clowns, sorry, Cleveland Browns. I get that mixed up sometimes, all that 's and they about to drop to 32 because Miles Garrett , they don't restructure my man, they they don't they don't restructure my man's deal. The Browns made a rare contract modification to modify the language to Garrett's deal.ste Inad of having him have his 29 million roster kick in on March 25th, the Browns and Garrett quietly agreed to language that would hold off on his roster bonus until the week before the start of the 2020 season. And the only reason Garrett would be okay with earning that massive lump sum of money immediately not earning it, sorry, immediately, is if he could be trad ed to a contender this off season.

We got that clip can can we play the clip make it happen Dak Prescott leading our team right now I need you to take toy mom take a couple pic ks and give them to Cleveland so you can pick me up. Please. I love to play in Dallas. Hey, hey, that that was that was a message over there to Jerry Jones and uh I I I know it was a little while still is still relevant you know it was only 2017 okay let's you know and uh Joe yeah I know uh the market what it was like in Dallas when they was trying to get old uh Crosby over there. Okay, and they was they was willing to give just one first, but but I believe I believe they may be willing to give two for this. I I me personally just looking at the situation, you know what I'm saying, Cleveland, what what kind of money you think you make off the field? You know this, Joe. What kind of money you think you make off the field in Cleveland, Joe? It ain't it ain't really that kind of area for that kind of stuff. But in Dallas, Dallas, man, that man could probably make another 40 a year off the field. Oh Lord, my yeah, so make some good Joe. Hey Joe, what do you think of the moves the Cleveland Browns just made here and with your your GM over there Mr. Barry with the boiling chicken. How do you what do you think of this move, Joe? I think this is a smart move. It's a smart move. It's a business move. It's letting the Browns, end of the day let, it giving us more time to see after the draft if Miles is gonna still be there. Miles has already said that he wants to go. He's still he will be there for sure if he's gonna play for the bread. Miles is a Miles a hired gun right now. Love Miles to death. He's gonna be in put in Cleveland if he has to to get paid for sure. He loves the city and all that, but end of the day, he would definitely might not mind leaving and going play for another team. So that's already said. He said he wanted to go. And then when you get paid, you're gonna have to do what you gotta do. So he's still there playing. Love it, respectful. And he's going hard because he just broke the record. So for the Browns, you have a baller, a generational talent, a hall of fame player. If you can get crazy amounts of assets for him, you always keep that window open. You think two is enough? No, no, if I'm the Browns, I'm not doing it unless for three, three first round picks for Miles. And I'm keeping that for teams to I'm leaving it open. I'm gonna have to get a crazy haul for him. Because end of the day, if Miles Garrett broke the record and we still only won four games, so there is more holes to fill than just miles draft capital and all that stuff so we can have a future plan if we can get three first round picks for miles then you start listening to that then that makes it a more more more reason for us to do something because with Miles breaking records with him being generational talent, it hasn't been enough for the Browns to win a championship. And giving him his bread, it is what it is. We can we need more. So we can get three first-round picks, happen to get uh um another defensive end, these rookies, somebody we can trade, we can just get, we need more assets. So as much as they can get from Miles , try to see, keep the wind, keep the doors open. But if you're not getting enough, then keep them on the team. Him moving the sign of bonus back just gives them more time. Like it's like once you give him that bonus, then you know you're not trading them. You're not moving them because you already paid them that bread. Once you want if you pass it back until right before the season starts, then that gives you all that time during training camp, all that time before the season to if you need to trade them and somebody's like, man, no, bump that. Our team looks good during training camp. All we need is Miles Garrett, we'll give him the three first round picks. Then if you're the Browns, you always keep that window open because with Miles, you still aren't a Super Bowl contending team. So you always gonna, if you're if you're Andre andrew Barry, keeping that window open to be able to get as much capital as you possibly can because he is a baller and we haven't won as many games as we want as we can as we i mean we won as much as we can with him with breaking records with being MVP. So you think somebody'll give up three first rounders? If they don't, then we keep him . So this was just a move, just this is just a move just for just for length, just to see if somebody can. Look, and then next season, and look, we could we start going one and five, who knows? I think I think I think you'd be smart to take two. I I I hear I hear you, but if I'm them , I I'm trying to I'm I'm going to I mean throw another one in there maybe it's murder or fourth win but if man max got two I'm not giving you three all right well that's what he's gonna chill okay we'll see we'll see what uh two first and the second two first two first and the second. Something, something outrageous because Mad Max. Two first and the third. What about two first and third? Two first and three. DM Joe. DM Joe right now, two first and third. Who what team are you? Where are you picking ? I'm trying to first and third. Yeah, okay . Two first and third, right? Two first and third. I'm two first and third. I'm listening to you. How you how you how you not and you just said yourself the man had 23 sacks and y'all still couldn't get no more to go ahead. You need help in a whole lot more positions than that . I'm taking it then . I'm taking it. I'm taking it. Listen. Anything more than two first. I listen, I love this move. I love this move for Cleveland. You know? And hey, Barry, I'm 100% with you. This is the best move you can make . I love it. I love it a lot. Oh, please. And even if, listen to me, but even if they don't give you no more than two, it's still worth it. It's still worth it. Listen to me . We need, we need, we need to get some more bodies in there. You know, it's it's you just you just need you just need more. And when when it comes down to it, hey , look here. Where do y'all think's my where uh where do y'all think miles plays uh next year? Peep it out, it's either Cleveland or Dallas. Right now , they saying, they saying right now, they saying it's it's is it's Dallas. 58% saying Dallas. Hey, check the chat. The poll right there. Hey, y'all let me know where y'all think he's playing. A that that off the field money that a it's just gonna be what do you think Dallas? You what do you think Dallas go will offer Cleveland to get Miles ? Two two first the two first okay two first and if they stutter a little bit they might throw a third two first and the third. Two first and the third you, know what ? Sign, sign, sign me up. Sign me all the way up. Sign me all the way up. I was trying, I'm trying to over I'm trying to over get because I'm I I'm like if we gonna get rid of Miles, I I don't want to. I love Miles, he's been the best player, but when you're trying to go really build, we need to buy, baby. Got a new coach in there, man. He ain't a don't forget. He ain't been in contact with the the with the new D coordinator yet now. Yeah. Is that is that gonna be a problem? No, that's not a problem. Miles is gonna ball out. I'm telling you wherever he goes . I know, I know all the defense people that we got, you know, like like like TJ and and and Cam and all them boy. They don't talk to the coordinator that we got. I'm just saying . I'm just saying, Joe . Do they let I think that's the coordinator? First thing I got to do, I gotta talk to I got I gotta talk to my guys that's gonna be leading the charge for me. I want you I want to talk to you, let you know my plan, where we going, where we're headed, how we go do it. I need the buy-in, baby. I need the buy-in. I need you to get them the buy-in. They're gonna get the buy-in on when OTAs start. When I show up on there with my notepad locked in, then you'll know that they don't know. Like what you see. What you mean? How you know I like what you see in ? You go buy in anyway? How you gonna what you mean? We here. Yes, listen, we ain't had no conversation. We ain't had nothing. I come in here and you got me playing the two technique. That's on look, if that's what the defense calls for, if that's what defense calls for, who you gonna come? This is the coach, this is the defensive coordinator. Now you now you the coach. Defensive coordinator. Listen to me, Debo. That's the type of I don't want to coach you. I don't need you on my team. I don't want you on my team. I don't want you on my team. Play you, you the outside backer. So play outside backer. All right, bet. When I'm when the coach comes in and tell me, Joe, you corner you right now, you gotta play cover two. What I'm gonna say, nah, I'm a better man corner. Shut up, Joe. Play cover two. All right, bet. All right, I'm gonna hold down this cover two. All right, that's what I'm gonna do. So I'm gonna go play the defense exactly the way you call it, and then it don't work. Now I'm looking at you crazy like this. Well, I did your cover two. And and you know what I'm saying? Give him a shot. I'm gonna buy all the way in from the beginning. Put him at the two. Put him at the two, put him at the two or the three technique and tell him just play the defense I done told you to play. D Ball , he just had 23 sacks. Huh? No, no. You go roll with that. No, no, no. See, no, see. He's not gonna put my own. Look, we tal'kre abouting miles. If we talk about miles, if we're talking about miles, he's not gonna put him in the two. That's the thing. I'm just saying, what if we ain't got nobody to stop nothing, man? Why would he know? Man, that's that's good that that's on that's on y'all. That's on y'all. But if that's gonna make the team win, Miles might have to go in there, hold it down. You know what I'm saying? We talked about our man. Do you guys sometimes you might gotta do the ugly things? I don't know. Get dirty a little bit. If it works , you gotta come in with somebody in, but like same time your defensive coordinator's not gonna be dumb enough, I would hope, to put Miles at the two when you have him that just had 23 sacks. Maybe for a look. You know what I'm saying? Debo you just out here just like to make me mad you know me I like to I like to come up with things that make difficult decisions make no you come up with sometimes you just say stuff that don't make sense just to try to make me mad and be like, yeah but, what if they do that? Hey, I'm just listen, I can't, I can't help what your reaction is to a hypothetical. All right, so what what would what what if you came in and Dick LeBoe just was like, all right, bet, Debo, would Dick Lebo put you out at corner? And if he told you to go out there at the end of the day this time, you gotta go out to the play. If Debo told me to play corner and he said I could play it, you damn right I would. There we go. Okay., Okay okay , okay. You damn right, because Dick LeBoy ain't never ain't never he would never set you up. He was disgusting. That is that is a uh like that is the high est disrespect of form I ever heard in my life. What ? Uh comparing your D coordinator to to Dick LeBeau and what Dick LeBeau would do. Are you out of your mind? Well then not okay. Every sense that you had left all seven senses or six, whatever it is. I'm done with this shit. Zero disrespect. Zero disrespect to dislike Dick Lebau. Zero disrespect. Zero. Zero. Zero. Debo. That's that. You know what? I my bad. My bad. I did not mean that. But you know what I'm talking about. You done put yourself on mute . Joe, look here, man. Yes. Your boy, your boy male kyper over here he said something that i finally uh totally agree with about shado sanders he said shado sanders over ty simpson the browns don't need quarterback, he said. Thewn Bros don 't have to worry about Ty Simpson. They're they're they're they've got a better quarterback in Shadora Sanders than Ty . He exceeded expectations by miles considering what he is, what he had to do to over come obviously better than Dylan , I think he's the Browns quarterback for the future. Joe, what do you think of that Joe? That's I'm not here to give a Shador love speech, but since he was coming out, nothing changed when it was versus him and Ward coming out of the draft, in my opinion. So he had him draft ranked high in his draft board he was gonna be one or two for mel kyper he was up there for me too so when people then all of a sudden back down and he goes as a fifth round draft pick in my view he never changed nothing changed in my view of Shador . So giving him the opportunity to have a line, have a year in the in the system, have a year where he has actual real wide receivers that he can hand it off to with the running game. You know what I'm saying? Like a true chance to be a starting quarterback. And that's where Mel Kuiper, I and I think that we speaking on the same level. People are looking at Shador since he went in the fifth round like a fifth round quarterback. I am not. I'm still looking at Shador like the quarterback I thought could have gone one or or two, him Ward in the draft. So Ward had a good year, but it wasn't nothing electric. You wouldn't like Ward was had to be in a quarterback competition, but he's the starting quarterback for the Tennessee Titans moving forward. Wasn't the best. Same if Shador was a starting quarterback, had that title for the Cleveland Browns, that was his rookie season. Now the next year, he has another year, boom, under his belt, offseason, go through the whole thing, being able to get additions, being able to get other receivers, being able to work with them , work with the ones during OTAs, during training camp. He was working with the practice squad. He didn't get any reps. So the season happened, rookie year, it's a lot going on. You're a quarterback, just things moving, changing pace. So now I think him having his full offseason, I thought he would have been a first-round pick last year. Now it's his second year coming in like Cam Ward. I'm kind of looking at uh Shador 's progress like I'm looking at Cam's. Wasn't the best, but still has things he can work on, he can do better. But now he's his second year. Believe in him. Let's go. Let's let's see what he can do. So with me, I wouldn't take Ty. I don't think he's better than Shador, in my opinion. You other people may think he is. So let that that to each his own. I'm not saying Ty Simpson isn't the bad quarterback. Hope he gets into the league, does well, has doesn't people don't judge him off of his rookie season, lets him get around a team that's actually, pretty good. You know what I'm saying? Depending on what teams he falls to, he might not have to do too much. He might look better than Cam Ward did. You know what I'm saying? So I think situationally, you just can't put stuff on quarterbacks that fast and be like, no, he's the starter, no, he's the bench player, no, he's not good. We've seen it with a lot of quarterbacks. Tua look good. He was able to get another contract. 50 million dollars. Kyler Murray looked good. Uh Sam Darnold looked good and then did didn't look good. Then started looking good. So it's like different situations. Each quarterback being in a different team, being able to have time to work. So I'm with Mel Kuiper because I'm I'm like I'm a Shador guy. I think that if he gets the chances to go out there and really just play football, he will be a great, he'll be a starting quarterback in this league. Yeah i'ma i'ma agree with you and male on this one i just i don't even i don't even know if i think ty simpson even gets taken in the first round, dude. I just don't see anyone there to taking because it's it's not really an upside that he could offset that what teams would be needing to get, you know what I'm saying? Like just just looking at it. Like his whole thing of his abilities, you know, to be able to like read and process, you know, the defenses fast enough so that you know he can anticipate the throws like he's waiting for guys to get open and then you know making the throw you can't do that in NFL because that window as soon as that window opens it'll close on you and then when he's pressured he, panics a little bit. You know, he tries to speed up his process. He stops looking down the field, you know, for open receivers, you know, stuff like that. And what, he only got a full one year actually starting. So it could be an experience while all that is. You know, it's just I think it's too much of a risk to take on a first round pick. Um the quarterback position ain't really that strong. What is it? Uh Mendoza, he'll go to the Raiders, obviously, because who they got? Some dude O'Connor or something over there. That's the only quarterback. I think that's the only quarterback they got on their roster right now. So he's going to go there, I think just simply because of that. And after that, you know, I don't hang a good guy. I don't think another quarterback come out of the first round. You know? I think for with the with the Browns, if we want to do that , we need to go ahead and get offensive line and we need to get a wide receiver. So somebody else that can we still we addressed the we addressed some line we I know that's what I'm saying. We got two firsts. So one of them first needs to be if we can get either Tate early, I'm saying that after you get rid of Miles, you get two more . Get two . Um that's just building. That's that's what I'm saying. That's a lot of that's a lot of good capital. That's a lot of good capital for some players. And I like position, positional players. We need to get a tackle, we need to get a receiver in our out of our first two picks. And then we get some more, then it's just depth. You can get, you never can have too many linemen. Get another lineman for sure. A baller. Like, so this definitely offensive line. Then we yeah, I think they'd be on the right path. Yes, sir. But again, what ? It's the Cleveland Brown, so Tax Act can think of a million things more fun than filing taxes. Tax Act is going to name some now. Sitting in traffic, folding a fitted bed sheet, listening to your co- worker talk about his fantasy team. Digging a hole. Digging an even larger hole next to that original hole. Unfortunately, TaxAct's filing software can't make taxes fun. But TaxAct can help you get them done. Tax Act. Let's get them over with. Easter has arrived at Target. Dive into the fun with up to 25% off seasonal faves. Like best of fits that keeps you stylish from brunch to iconic egg hunts or the sweetest goodies to fill baskets and bring the magic. Make Easter extra special a target Kinda gotta be a little less than optimistic when they get opportunities to be able to go in. The thing is, I like where it's moving to, I don't look at making miles, moving the money to a bad thing. It's just giving us more options. I mean, y'all not too good at picking the right options, though. Let's, you know. Come on. Right. I mean, well rather have them than not. Now it's just on now it's on him. Now we got now. We literally can look at Barry with the picks that he picked and see who who it is. Time will tell. But like the Junkins, hit. Okay. Tight end hit. Okay. Now we get some more. Let's see. A linebacker. Defensive player of the year. Rookie of the year. Okay. Like not bad. Now more time. Listen, y'all had both defensive player of the year, rookie of the year, and y'all won what four games ? Trout. I'm tired. It's not look, it's not as bad as it looks. We need we need some more for sure. I'm saying it's gonna be all right. Now listen, we gotta get a lot of points on the board. I understand. We gotta get some points on the board. Listen, you say you get a lot from I understand you get a lot from house, but what you're going to have to realize is you're going to now take away those two to three guys that are blocking him that allowed your other guys to do what they did. So now that rookie linebacker that was running around doing everything. He gonna have some. You know what I realized too, my man. So we're gonna get a lot for Miles too because for Micah Parsons, they got two firsts and a player and they had to give him a new contract. Miles is coming under under a deal of 40. He already coming with the deal. So they don't have to restructure his contract. That's good business. So they don't have to give him a new deal. We already coming with the smooth. Would they care if they had to give him a new deal if they got him. Y'all just made it easier for somebody else to get him. Yeah. Yeah that that's good for that's that's good. That's good for your business, yeah. I understand Joe. Understand. Hey, Joe. Speaking of Joe, we got another Joe. Joe Flacco over there with the Bengals. He had he had a little something to say about, you know, nobody's starting him, signing him for a starting uh position. Listen . What the hold up is. I probably do feel that way. I feel like I have unfinished business. That's part of why I'm still here and playing and and doing all those things and and and not being one of those guys to go sign somewhere. Yeah it pisses me off a little bit. But but at the same time like I'm I'm very happy to be here. And that's and that's also why I don't see this as the end. Like I I that's just not how I'm viewing it in my mind. Like I feel like I can help a team win. And yeah, it may be in a different role here, but I do st still think I can help this team win in that role. Um I had a lot of fun with Joe and Joe's the guy. Um and believe me, I wish I was a guy somewhere. And I think teams are dumb for not having me be that guy. But it is what it is. And that's I'm not gonna let me, I'm not gonna let them or it get me down. I'm gonna be the person I am and just approach football the way I always have. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Hey. How you feel? No. Debo, you tell you tell me first how you feel about how you feel about Mr. Flacco . Hey, he said dumb. He said they dumb. Joe, Flacco, Joe Flacco , I'm talking to you, man . Hey, I don't know uh what or like who you're talking about. I would love for you to give me some clarity on the team or the teams . If that's what you're saying, you know, I've they're dumb, stupid for not signing you to come in there and and start so you're obviously looking at a team or starters that are currently on a roster and you're you're better than or whatever and you could be the starting quarterback there and I don't have a a a roller
