Summary
Dan Hanzus & Marc Sessler are back for Day 2 of the annual NFL league meetings reacting to the latest news and quotes from Phoenix, Arizona. First, we tour through the latest NFL head coaches photo before providing an update on why Browns coach Todd Monken missed the picture. Eagles GM Howie Roseman and head coach Nick Sirianni insist that WR AJ Brown is currently on the Eagles, which is true, but that doesn't mean much going forward, especially when Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel is still talking about "upgrading the roster." Monken and Browns owner Jimmy Haslem have given QB Deshaun Watson a fresh start, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones sees long-term plans with WR George Pickens, and we react to more notable quotes. Then, the heroes square off head to head in a battle of guessing team win totals for 2026.

| 0:00.0 | Well, welcome to Heat the Call on NFL podcast. |
| 0:12.4 | My name is Dan Hansish, joined by my beautiful co-host, Mark Sessler, Justin Graver on the ones and two. A little three-man weave on the midweek show. |
| 0:26.6 | The second day of owners meetings in Phoenix, we heard from a lot of NFC coaches on the Monday program. |
| 0:34.5 | Now we'll hear from a lot of AFC figures, but, you know, it'll be all over the |
| 0:38.1 | place, and we're going to have fun doing it. Sussie, how you doing, buddy? I am doing better than I |
| 0:43.5 | normally was on the second or third day of the owners meetings we typically attended. There was, |
| 0:50.5 | there was one owner's meeting. There was one where, like, I mean, I know these guys show up looking in different states of disrepair, |
| 0:57.2 | but I actually missed the first 15 minutes of one because of a late wake-up, and that wasn't my favorite day covering the league. |
| 1:04.6 | But you bounce back because you're in Phoenix and it's warm and it's nice out, and you're sweaty and hot by about 11 a.m. |
| 1:10.6 | Yeah, I remember some of those Sessler owners meetings. Well, it wasn't just Sessler, by the way. I know, I know that would be a clever narrative, but there were, I mean, yeah, it was, uh, I, West was a great, um, operative with you, but, uh, yeah, sometimes just getting out of those meetings with everything being |
| 1:28.6 | in one place on the on the program was a victory. Uh, right, for the, around the NFL empire. |
| 1:35.6 | Sure. Um, but and yet we persevere. Uh, and now here we are watching it from the other side |
| 1:41.7 | of the glass. And, uh, we will get to everything that makes sense to hit because some of it is kind of silly. |
| 1:52.1 | Some of it might feel, you know, regurgitated. |
| 1:55.2 | But let's just see where the angles are, Mark, where people are coming from. |
| 1:59.2 | We're also at the end at the end of the show, |
| 2:02.0 | I have a little score to settle with you, the blind over under game where I have not seen it. |
| 2:10.0 | I hope, I hope you're being honest, Mark, when you say you haven't seen it either. They put out the |
| 2:15.1 | over under win totals for the various teams, and we're going to |
| 2:20.8 | enter into a competition guessing what those over-unders are. Yeah, I guess it's, I promise you that I |
| 2:27.4 | have not, because it's not the first thing I would dive into. I even put a note into our group |
