I think you should also throw in. I mean, the mug is nice. Stickers good on my wife's t-shirts. I'm sure awesome. African peace.

0:10.8

Yeah, you could have them. Set it down there. Jeez. You got a mug and this purse. Yeah, right.

0:17.6

Oh, I won't wish that on anybody. Even if you guess my top 10 perfectly, we will not be sending you one of the African geese in my house. Okay, that will not happen.

0:28.2

We're not going to torture you that way. Okay, it's a full-time job taking care of these damn geese and they're noisy. All right, so I'm still stuck with them. They're they are getting a little bit better. They're getting more comfortable. Okay, they kind of just hang out in one area of the yard a little bit. They're like a little scared to venture. I think they're starting to see the chickens who walk everywhere and they're like, huh, let's get out there a little bit with these guys. Well, look at my house. I know it might not. Now again, like I've told you before, we get the big dog that's running around too. So it's definitely helped us. Yeah. And these things.

0:58.2

Things are supposed to, I mean, this is a big bird. Like this is a big bird. Like I like you would think like even a fox might go, I don't know about that. I'm not sure. Coyote. Okay. Yeah, but a fox I think would be like, he's bigger than me. I'm not sure I can handle this. So that's what they're kind of handy for at least for now. We were experiencing some some trickle down foul effects, trickle down from from the chicken massacre. We had last week. Right. So we have one left. And she is so stressed out. She's laying eggs that are like smaller than

1:28.2

like a golf ball. And we, we googled it. They do this when they're really. They're heard animals. They like to be part of the pack. Right. So that's the issue. There is thinking about watching all of her friends get killed. Or she's like, where is everybody? Exactly. We have eggs that are, it's like hail. Yeah. That's funny. That's funny. I know. Yeah. It is. It can be affected by that. Maybe your African geese would like him for a snack. I mean, maybe I don't think they seem to just want to eat grass. That's all I know so far. We've tried to give them other things. They could care less about it. So that's where we are. And yes, we won't be giving you any geese.

1:58.2

If you do guess the Christians top 10 correctly, we've got great entries. And we'll hit all that soon because we're getting close. We are to the top 10, baby. Yeah. I mean, we got a good one today. We got 16 to 13 today. Right. Am I right about that? Yes. It's those four 16 to 13. My addition and subtraction is at a elementary level still here. The group is a four if thrown. Yeah. But we're going to get into something today. I mean, it's an interesting group right here. This is some really good quarterbacks. Yes. Established.

2:28.2

And you know, not a lot of question marks about this group here. And we'll break it down because it's pretty nuanced as far as picking it picking apart these these four guys right here. Is it safe to say that we've hit this space of your quarterback ranking where the, I guess, poor and average are well behind us. The great. Yeah. Still out of head. But in this area where you may not love this certain quarterback. Right. But these guys are all either good or really good. Yes. I think we're getting to that area for sure. Where you you could sit here and I think the guys we even talk about today, even though they might not be the same.

2:58.2

Sexiest. I'm still going to go, no, this is still a franchise quarterback. Right. And you're not going to just get let this guy, you know, out the door for, for nothing. Right. You know, you don't want to do that. And I would even argue. Again, even with just what we saw if you're watching on YouTube, that little graphic there that just showed Baker may feel the Mac Jones. I would really say right there. Is almost where I would start to go. At least from Mac Jones to Baker may feel than above. I feel like we have a list of guys where I go. I know what I'm getting from that crew. Okay. I know what they are.

3:28.2

They can improve on some things. But I'm pretty sure what they are. Yeah. I'd like to see Mac Jones arm get a little stronger. But I know what he is. Yeah. Baker may feel that I know he's got incredible big time arm talent and some really special things. He's just got to be a little bit more, you know, consistently accurate and just take a little that gunslinger mentality out of his game. But like, I know what he is to where I would say the guys below that are still like, I'm not sure if I trust him or what he is or his leadership skills or what he's going to do under pressure.

3:58.2

He's young rookie that he's got potential. But I got to see it first a little bit here. A little more to be able to throw him up into this group of guys here. So I think that's where we're at in this little grouping today. I like to think about it in terms of like tears and like lines of demarcation and driving and thinking about the guys you're going to address today. Right. First the ones that you already have. So Baker may feel is the last one. He's at 17. Yeah. Baker. Could he have shown up at like 16 or 13 or do you feel like the we've hit a spot where there's there's a big gap or at least a six

4:28.2

significant one between these four guys and Baker. No, no, I don't. I think Baker could could easily like, you know, again, last year's a tough year to evaluate and some of that. And again, I think with Baker too, there's effect on the team and leadership. But also, there seems to be a little bit of a negative effect there too. I think if we're going to be real about it. But like Baker may feel, I think we could sit here and go, no, if there's just a little little nuances. He can clean up in his game. He can be above his talent is greater than some of these guys we're going to talk about today. A lot of times his

4:58.2

production has been. It is. I mean, again, Baker may feel last year. It was a few spots above where he was this past year as far as being ahead of 17. And again, not that I care about where last year or anything like that. But Baker may feel has the type of talent. And he is an arm for me to be top 10ish. All right. I don't know if he'll ever be top five ish. But he does the, I think the top 10ish or if he was 9 10 11, I could see him hunkering down there.

5:28.2

For a number of years with the type of talent he has as long as he continues to grow a little with the things we discussed a minute ago, just decision-making. Refine the mechanics a little bit. That's the one thing when you go back and make Baker may feel that's just too many balls of I'm going to throw it as hard as I can and feet and arms and everything are all over the place. And you're just like that and going to work every throw throw by throw here in the NFL. It's a little stuff like that that he's got to clean up. But there's a lot of good to his game too. So we're little ways away from the final four. But we do have the next four 16 through 13. You know,

5:58.2

already to get rolling. Let's get a roll in there. Mr. Brown shirt guy with the button down today. I think it's black. It's black. I couldn't tell I was going to ask you that. I wasn't sure if it was a dark. It is a black. Okay. Yeah. All right. So we're, uh, you're Navy. We got the dark light was hitting us. I'm always dark. We're not contrasting. No, we're not. And we're not definitely nobody gets too bold with the color here when it's when it's the two of us. No, I'm black, blue and gray. I know people make fun of me all the time. And I'm like, this is what I do. And it's simple and easy. And I'm not that smart.

6:28.2

You used to it. Yeah. Okay. Quarterback number 16. Yes. Quarterback number 16 Kirk cousins, Minnesota Vikings 16 last year as well. 16 was you 16 last year as well. Again, I haven't looked at my list from last year. A whole lot of you are either way. Well, look at that. I love some of these pictures because I look at the the throwing positions at times. And, uh, it things jump out just there. But here, I think the first thing I'm going to start out by with Kirk cousins is the ultimate system quarterback. I mean, we're talking about the

6:58.2

ultimate system quarterback. A guy that if the system is really good and creative and you give him and can teach him answers and checks and balances, he will take advantage of every fucking bit of it. He really will. Oh, you taught me the square root of 64 is eight. And I'm going to know that this guy here is four inches away from where it usually is. And that means it's cover four and cover. He'll be all over that. And he's going to dissect you and kill you that way. So that's where he's very special in that aspect. And then added on to that, you know, his

7:28.2

ability, I think that also makes him special or really damn good is the there is no hesitation in his game when he sees it and knows what he's looking at.

7:38.9

conviction is huge. It is right. I mean, you could tell in this game. Just as far as his ability to read and react and pull the trigger and throw is this. It's up there with the top guys in football. When he knows what he's saying. Oh, wait, I play action pass. I'm, oh, wait, it's the coverage. I thought it was still. And he can diagnose where guys

7:58.1

are and let it rip as good as anybody in football. So that's where he is special. Yeah. And he's smart that way. He's pretty accurate

8:04.8

thrower. Really? Yeah. Yeah. He's he's he's a very good down the ball down the field. Thrower. All right. And yes, like you said, he's very accurate. I mean,

8:13.0

if you're open 10 yards over the middle five yards, Lance, whatever, he's going to put it on the money for the most part. It's the
