| 0:00.0 | Hello, everybody. Welcome to the Rode World Football Show. I'm Patrick Dardy. |
| 0:20.2 | I'm in why I said my name before the date. April 9th, Thursday, 2026. I'm joined by Danny Carter. I'm joined by Kyle Dvorchick. I'm joined by banter. I posted my annual coach rankings this week. It is the talk of the 10th. It really is. Colin Coward is talking about it. Not a bit. Not a joke. |
| 0:37.9 | We're going to talk about it a little later after we get to some news. C.J. Stroud's fifth year team option has been exercised. We'll talk about his future in Houston. We'll go to Devon A. Chan's future or lack thereof in Miami. They keep talking them up. They keep not extending him. And we'll talk about Malik Willis's near-term future |
| 0:55.1 | in New York City, as in will he play in week one as he returns from his torn ACL. The coaching |
| 1:00.7 | article, Denny and I went through kind of 32 to 17 on Tuesday. Today we're going to focus on the top |
| 1:06.9 | half of the board. A debate at the top, Sean McBey, number one this year, whether or not that |
| 1:11.5 | makes sense. Some of the old goats, Sean Payton, Jim Harbaugh, who we prefer, The Eternal, |
| 1:16.8 | Nick Siriani debate. The Eternal, should I rank a young coach really high after one good |
| 1:21.5 | year debate? Kyle might weigh in on his favorite, or at least favorite new hires. When we run |

| 1:56.3 | As always, we have Bryson DiCambeau, down horrific. |
| 2:05.9 | He's 80th out of 91 players in the field in Strokes gain on approach. Not good. But most importantly, I want to talk about the opening |
| 2:11.5 | ceremonial T shot. That's a thing? I did not know this is a thing either so they have like an |
