| 0:00.0 | Welcome to GM Street, part of the Ringer Podcast Network. It is Friday morning. We're going |
| 0:10.4 | to call this the Friday Focus. We're heading into the division around this weekend and I |
| 0:13.8 | am joined by Mr. Michael and Barty. How are you doing? I'm great tape Fraser. How are you? |
| 0:17.4 | I'm doing our own weekend football. This is the, some claim is the best weekend in football, |
| 0:21.8 | right? I mean, we got all these games this weekend, four huge games, the |
| 0:25.1 | visual games we're going to see what these teams are made of. We're going to map out the championship |
| 0:29.1 | games, obviously, next couple of weeks and figure out who's going to go to the Super Bowl. |
| 0:32.9 | But first up before we get into the games themselves, I just want to talk about around the league. |
| 0:36.3 | Got a lot of firing, got a lot of high rings going on. Quickly, we touched on this, the John |
| 0:41.1 | Gruden press conference. Did you watch that? I did. What did you think about that? I mean, I have |

| 1:09.1 | that's John's moment right there. I mean, he's good at that. You know, he can, you know, |
| 1:13.1 | get right into it. And I love the fact that Mark Davis came out and said that the contract was |
| 1:17.9 | signed on December 31. So that's the thing to jump into. So now we have this whole thing. He |
| 1:23.7 | says that it was signed so much earlier. John Gruden doesn't talk about it in his last game. |
| 1:28.0 | The broadcast he said he tells Sean McDonough that it's still not a done deal. Apparently, |
| 1:32.2 | it already signed. So they already have a problem with that. And now they have to worry about the |
