| 0:00.0 | former offensive coordinator of the Kansas City Chiefs, the former head coach of the Chicago Bears, he's going to be the new play caller, new OC of the New York Giants. We know that Todd Munkin was the number one option. Todd obviously got the head coaching job with the Cleveland Browns. Nothing you can do about that. And so this was John Harbaugh going to plan B. And there were a lot of names mentioned. I kind of preferred Cliff Kingsbury. The Giants decided not to go in that direction. Connor Hughes had a report that they were very interested in Charlie Weiss Jr. For anyone who's called up about him, but he decided to stay at LSU where he's now at. And eventually they made the decision on Matt Nagy a hire that I think most giant fans are like, okay? Right. Okay, we'll see. Yeah, I just, I don't understand the negativity coming in on the mad. Yeah, there's a lot of it. I see it from a lot of people just doing negativity. Can I just tell you real quick what the negativity is? And you've already kind of dismissed a lot of it. And I understand it, but I just want to explain it. I'm like the explainer in chief. Who said that? |
| 0:54.3 | Obama said that, right? He said that about Clinton, actually. He's like, he's the explainer in chief. |
| 0:59.8 | Anyhow. Speaking of Epstein files, but whatever. I'm sorry, what was they? They will testify, |
| 1:06.7 | though. They will. I did see that. The rankings offensively. That's it. And I'm not saying that's a good reason. I'm saying that's the reason. The Chief's rankings offensively have gone backwards. The rankings in Chicago went backwards. And that's it. And you can absolutely, and you already had Tiki Polk holes in that, it is certainly a flawed thought. Of course it's a flawed thought. I'm just explaining to you where the negativity comes from. But two years ago, they were in the Super Bowl and they got destroyed by the Philadelphia Eagles. Why? Because their offensive line was like Swiss G's. So that's Matt Nagy's fault, who's the offensive coordinator, not Brett Feitch's fault, or Andy Reed, who was the play caller. And if we say good things, like they were in the Super Bowl, the answer is, well, that's not Matt Nagy, that's Patrick. That's exactly right. And Andy Reid. Yeah. I just, I guess my point would be people are used to being so beat down that they, they jump to negativity first, because they feel uninspired. Correct. And said they'd rather be inspired by somebody they have no idea about. But that's just what I was going to say. Who on this list of the people they were talking to would people have not had this reaction about? Cliff Kingsbury. Charlie Weiss Jr. Who's 28 years old. Right. Whatever the heck he is. Oh, he'd be awesome for our office coordinator. I can't wait. |
| 2:18.7 | Based on what? |
| 2:34.0 | His connection to Jackson, Dart. Who cares? I'm just giving the answer. It's not the same thing. I'm just the explainer in truth. I understand what you're saying, but I'm just, I'm just telling you that it's ludicrous people's reactions about things that they're so uninformed about. Well, I'm going to give you my reaction. Or biased about it's biased. |
| 2:35.5 | I'm going to give you my biased reaction to the Jets decision, which has not been made yet, but here's where things stand. They're interviewing Frank Reich today. It's been reported, Zach Rosenblatt, has the report that he's in Florent Park today. And the three names that have been attached to this job are Greg Roman, Daryl, Daryl, and Frank Reich. |
| 2:53.0 | Evan, those are three fantastic names. I want you to rank those three names in order because |
| 2:59.3 | the Pick 3 Quick 3 is brought to you by New Jersey Lotteries green ball promotion back |
| 3:05.0 | again on Pick three evening drawings. |
| 3:07.6 | So you have three veteran OCs. |
| 3:09.4 | Yes. |
| 3:09.9 | Your preference order on the pick three quick three here. |
| 3:12.6 | And you'll probably see what Tiki described, which is biases and being uninformed, |
| 3:17.8 | but my raw animalistic opinions on these three gentlemen. |
| 3:20.6 | And you're going to get it. |
| 3:21.6 | Here we go. |
| 3:22.0 | Number three, that means I don't want him. |
| 3:24.0 | Or I would want him the least is Darrell Bevel. And you want to know why? Let's bring it all back to what I said about four minutes ago about rewatching the Seattle Seahawks against the New England Patriots. Oh, come on. The one play. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The one play. Am I wrong? When I think of Dryl Bevel, what do you think? I'm just curious. What do you think? I think trying to go save Urban Myers' ass down in Jacksonville. That's what you think of? And it didn't work. By the way, that was the last time he was an offensive coordinator. That was four years ago. I know. Since then, he's been the quarterback's passing game coordinator for the dolphins. By the way, I agree with you. Thank you. But it's not for Super Bowl, whichever one that was. Well, I'm giving you. It was 49. 49. Because it's 11 minus 60 or 60 minus 11. That's how I figured it out. I don't know numbers. I know years. I'm a years guy, or 60 minus 11. |
| 4:15.2 | That's how I figured it out. |
| 4:16.4 | I don't know numbers. |
| 4:16.9 | I know years. |
