I want to hear Belichick break down the kickoff rule, how to attack it, and how to defend it. What a year for him to be not coaching. He would crush this.
I enjoy Florio. I completely get why some don’t, but I think you just have to learn how to take him seriously. I think he stoically jokes a lot and people don’t get it. You also have to remember his job.
@@FatTony_Football I agree, he's good at his particular brand of commentary. I especially enjoy his breakdown of contracts and the legalities of the league. He did a great job of describing the gruden lawsuit from a neutral observer's point of view.
Jared Goff took the Rams to the playoffs for the first time in 12 years in his 2nd year with the Rams and then took them to the Super Bowl the next year. Jared Goff won the NFC North for the first time in 31 years and took them to the NFCC for the first time in 33 years in his 3rd year with the Lions. Why in the world would they play around and not pay him? By the way, if Kirk Cousins took the Vikings to the NFCC, he'd still be a Viking, and if Dak had taken the Cowboys to the NFCC, he already would have a new contract that would make him the highest paid quarterback in the NFL. Lastly, could Mike stop saying the Rams gave the Lions a 1st round pick to take Goff? He has literally no proof that happened and just made it up out of whole cloth, and the Lions have NEVER treated Goff like he was a throw-in.
Goff didn't take the Rams to a Super Bowl, the Rams took him to a Super Bowl...... and he had one of the worst games i've ever seen in that Super Bowl lol people gotta stop trying to analyze the biggest TEAM sport on Earth as if it's nothing but a tennis match between 2 QBs.... this isn't how football works.... put Goff on the Panthers last year and you think "he" is gonna win the division and go to the NFC Championship game? lol get a clue dude, learn how this sport works
@@mattcarberry368 Jared Goff had 4,688 yards and 32 touchdowns for the season and allotted for 307 of the total 378 yards the Rams gained in the NFCC game. quarterbacks who do that aren't "carried" anywhere. Maybe, you should figure out "how the sport works."
As a Cowboys fan I agree 💯 with Mike in his take. Drives me nuts.. along with the constant word salad that spews from any member of the Jones family in the front office
I totally agree with you Mike, it makes no sense to play Russian roulette with the ball. Kick the ball out and let the opponent have the ball back at the 30 yard mark. SIMPLE!
not really how it works. People think Miami have leverage on Tua because of their personal opinions on the players value, but in reality Tua has majority of the leverage. Whats Miamis plan if they dont resign him? get Tuas final year of contract play that is probably going to be awkward as hell considering he is on a team that doesnt want him so his performance will probably drop? And then what? Tank a season to get a high draft pick to then yolo draft a new QB the year after and then after 2 dead years, finally re enter the QB carousel yet again that you dont know when it will end?
@@TheSpencer1000 Draft a QB and send him packing. Tua ain't that good. They know it and he knows it. If he were, he would be signed and you know this. Mediocre to solid QBs get what they earn. Draft a QB next year and kick him out the door.
@@TheSpencer1000 The odds are bad because the guys picking the QB's were bad. Tannehill was a converted WR and not a very good one. Pat White ran a college offense that didn't look anything like the pros and it showed when he arrived. Skylar Thompson was another bad choice. Chad Henne, a Michigan QB, was bad because other than Tom Brady, give me a Michigan QB that has succeeded in the NFL? We've had drafts where the majority of the QB's work out, and vice-versa. Get better at recognizing talent.
When it comes to Jared Goff's contract the Lions are not competing with other teams, they are face the issue of what options are available to them without him.
DAK PRESCOTT IS NOT THE GUY. They didn't make a mistake in waiting on paying Dak in his first deal. The mistake they made was actually paying him to stay. He wasn't the guy then, and he isn't the guy now. There has never been a player that the media wanted paid Mahomes money, more than Dak Prescott, for doing absolutely nothing that matters in this league.
Here’s the question - If Dak is gone, would his replacement be as good? If you are not certain they would be, you keep Dak. Because Dallas had been fortunate. Romo took over in 2007. He was a former undrafted free agent who they got lucky with, followed by a fourth round pick who they got lucky with when the former FA got hurt. So for 17 seasons, the Cowboys have not had to worry about the most important position in football. There is value in knowing what you have. If Dak is gone, then what?
@@brianrobinson116 Stop worrying about the "then what". Once you've made the decision to move on from Dak, then you know what you have to do. Elevate Trey Lance, AND draft a QB next year. They got Dak in the 4th round in 2016. They could have drafted a QB in any one of these 8 years. There are QBs in this league still playing, that were drafted from the 4th round all the way to the last pick in the draft. The Cowboys went 5-1 with Cooper Rush at QB. Let Dak go.
Eventually what you'll see probably in the next CBA or Two will be an exchange of fully gaurnteed contracts for pay scaling on deals similar to the NBA.
They were ALWAYS willing to pay Dak the franchise QB reset AAV/guarantee back in 2018…Dak wanted a much shorter deal than QBs typically sign so he could negotiate a third contract within 3-4 years to maximize earning power. Which is what we’re seeing here…the dude basically just signed and is already up again. The Cowboys refused and decided to take the extra years they wanted prior to giving him a deal….so he played through years 4 and 5…then got the shorter (4 years/ 3 guaranteed) that he always wanted. He got his deal…the Cowboys got 5 years of play prior to this point rather than the 3-4 Dak wanted. So here we are. It was NEVER the Cowboys not signing Dak…it was Dak not taking the deal.
Is mahomes really the only qb smart enough to sign a team friendly contract? I dont get it brady and mahomes both did it and are making the difference up in endorsements. Especially a guy like tua who is barely top 10 if that.
He didn't. He signed a contract that has 45m APY. At the time of the signing the cap was 205m. His APY was 22% of the available cap. The cap has gone up 50m since he signed that. 22% against the new cap is 56m APY.
@@dustingodin5323 you don't understand how his contracts works what so ever so just walk away. It's a 10 year contract which is unbelievablely team friendly most athletes want 3 to 4 so they can redo the deal faster after the cap and contracts have went up. It's also a backloaded contracts so the first year of that contract he made 20 mil then averaged around 30 to 40 mil the next 4 years. Not sure where you're getting this 22 percent idea but no player has ever been paid in correlation to a set percentage of the cap. His contract because of length also allows them to restructure to free up cap space every year. His cap hit has averaged about 6th or 7th highest the last few year. 2026 his cap hit will be close to 60 or 65 mil in which case they will extend him which will spread that cap hit even farther down the road. It's one of the more complicated and team friendly deals in sports history. About 3 weeks ago albert breer on this very show was asked who had the best bang for buc contract in the nfl was and his answer was mahomes's contract. I really didn't even go that far into detail on this either so educate yourself fool.
Everyone gets the offensive line wasn’t very good except Tua, who has literally had the some of the worst rated o lines throughout his careers and last year had 3 starting or lineman out… I still wouldn’t pay him top dollar but cut the guy a break
What is a qbs incentive to do better and work at making his skill better when he knows he will get paid no matter what there is no consequences to falling short and being a erave at best
I think the reason Good not Great QBs get BIG money is because they are fan favorites. AND, even with Average QBs, stability is always good for winning.
Difference between Goff and Tua is Goff and the team keep getting better and are now Superbowl contenders while the Dolphins have tanked in the playoffs just like the Cowboys.
I think poor Mike and\or Eisen are suffering from who is best ! The smarter one is the more one wants to prove it. No worries, the NFL(game of football), is tops and there is nothing anyone can do to change this: even Reid said he would play in the parking lot...
Florio the imposter. Everything he says he stole from Chris Simms and conveniently never gives him credit for coming up with the idea. I see it happen every day. Simms, because he actually does his job of watching film and studying front offices (he worked in one), played in the NFL, says something smart and insightful that we’ve never considered before. Then you immediately start hearing Florio saying it, parading around like he’s some football genius and came up with the thought himself. It’s bullshit. He couldn’t even break down cover 2 on a whiteboard. The most simple defense. And he’s been a “football analyst” for over 20 years. How do you explain that? He’s just too entitled, too comfortable stealing from Simms and his hard work every day. I wish Simms would blow a whistle on this bullshit intellectual property theft
Isn't this the same guy in Florio who won't give credit for the Patrick Queen interview? A small content creator in steerlers_DB and you can't even give him credit for his interview while you and NBC steal his clip. Wow

He would’ve already signed some European rugby return specialist and formulated a perfect return attack
That would probably be the only way his Patriots would score.

I’m all for players getting their money but honestly I don’t necessarily think next man up should reset the market every time.

Realistically speaking, Tua should sign any reasonable deal he gets. As a QB, he has a great situation.

Colts used a fifth round draft pick for a kickoff returner (Gould). But go ahead, talk about the Cowboys some more.
1974 was the season they moved the goalposts. That was a huge rules year.
When it comes to Jared Goff's contract the Lions are not competing with other teams, they are face the issue of what options are available to them without him.
Florio is fast tracking his way everyone’s pay no mind list
So how come it’s ok for the Vikings to let Cousins walk, but it’s not ok for the Cowboys to do the same with Prescott? How is that remotely objective?
"why do players salaries keep going up?!" He asks. The answer is because the cap keeps going up. Its really not hard to understand.
Dang Pat catching strays
Here’s the thing to do with the kickoffs, kick it so damned high but short of the end zone. No return pinned deep. High and not too deep.
