2:51 eastern only on peacock which is where you will find us that's our streaming Partner download the app if you haven't done so to be able to watch this program and uh our radio Affiliates around the country let's clean up hour one's poll question and then turn our attention to hour two Greg Olen NFL and fox analyst will stop by in about 20 minutes what do you have Satan in 2024 would you rather be the Lions offensive coordinator or the head coach of the Washington commanders right now that's at 69% would rather be the OC in Detroit who would have thought you know if I would have said that a few years ago hey would you stay as the OC of the Lions or take the coaching job of the commanders that's awesome I don't know if he had the opportunity to take the job with the commanders unless he was taking their salary that they were offering as opposed to his and maybe Seattle as well 15 million for a guy who hasn't coached

3:44 before as a head coach that's a little steep that's a little steep so it's being presented in Detroit of kind of the hero returns he's coming back to the staff Eminem joked that he was going to have a Dis Track if Ben Johnson left the Lions he goes all right I can stop writing that I don't have to do a diss track on uh Ben Johnson leaving the Lions yeah Paul is the word Johnson easy to rhyme with britzy I'll leave this up to you as he well you could probably use it as a uh an adjective verb a noun right yeah yeah he could have fun with that yes he could I would think so but doesn't have to worry about that no diss Track by uh Eminem So Ben Johnson is staying that means the commanders and Seahawks is still open for business the Orioles sold yesterday for 1.7 billion the Angelos family and I was wondering like it feels like billion doesn't seem like a billion the way it used to so you 1.7 my initial

4:45 reaction was man that's all they got for it and I'm thinking yeah maybe that's the going rate for a baseball team plus you know you're sandwiched between Washington DC and Philadelphia you're in a city that you know financially could be struggling and the Orioles are still a great brand great ballpark but uh the Angelos family I don't know if there's you know what the working Dynamic was or is with that family with the team but 1.7 billion for the Orioles and uh seems like it's weird to say man that sounds like a good buy but we're a good dot dot dot buy not a good buy but uh I I think because we get drunk with these numbers with NFL franchises where you go how much did the uh commanders go for 5.6 billion or Denver went for $5 billion and you know we look at some of the other franchises it's a little bit different Steve Balmer overpaid for the clippers but he could afford to overpay with the Clippers he wanted to have a

5:50 franchise and he got it but sometimes you look at these franchises and they're not all worth what the Cowboys are worth or the Yankees are worth or the Dodgers are worth the Lakers yes PA does it feel like to you guys in the past two years more sports teams have sold in a kind of a block of time not and for high record prices I mean of course the Market's going to go up but it almost feels like some of these owners are cashing out at the peak of the market and I've seen some stories from like Fortune magazine that says you know U Daniel Snider cashed out not because of the pressure of the NFL because this was the time and Mark cubin sold what I think 40% of his franchise he still controls it because this is the time to do so it's almost like a market move more than a sports move yeah it felt like that when people said why would Cuban be selling you know his beloved Mavericks and Cuban's a

6:39 businessman and I think that maybe sold off some of the teams so he could do something you know different business-wide with you know the whole shopping area around the Mavs uh arena there or get a new Arena as well so it seems like a a a a bigger play a longer play a different play for him I don't know about the other owners but it might be the time to get out maybe the numbers are bloated certainly with the NFL or at least it always seems like that and then you look back 20 years from now and you go how much they pay for that like you know when uh the Patriots were sold what was it a couple hundred million dollar that you pay for that like some of these where you go yeah that's a good return on your investment yes e well was it the Carolina Hurricanes they were sold like 6 years ago or at least like 50% of it or something was bought for like $400 million or something which feels like a

7:34 bargain yeah but I don't know yeah Paul the Angeles family paid one 173 million in 1993 so they made uh almost exactly 10 times profit okay good for them got a break good for them all right uh our two pole question Satan well would you like a Greg Olsen specific poll question sure in honor of Our Guest sure Greg Olsson should chill at Fox and buy his time or get out find a new home and no other options there that's it those are basically the two he could either stay or go I'm not sure what the third one would be would you ask for a trade if you're Greg olon no I'm serious for nowc to be named later yes or a cartoon El Michaels was traded for a cartoon right if you're if you're Greg okay but NBC already has Collinsworth ESPN has Aman CBS has Romo where is Greg Olsen going to go to be the number one analyst I don't know where did you go thank you Tony Tony what do you think could Greg Olen take over your job with

8:40 Jim Nan I I don't really know is he coming here is he going somewhere else he should be able pick that I love at the very end when you say what are you what would you do he only said that one time but it's like for me it's it's the punctuation on every sentence he says not what I'm here for Tony I think that's your job they may run and they may throw Jim what do you think I don't know this is a big call what would you do not exactly in sightful you know oh man H we're just having fun you like watching Meet the Press and the guy goes to the you know the Pres you know what should we do here with this situation I don't know what would you do that's not what I'm here for yeah I know war or peace I don't know what would you do I don't know what would you do yeah what would you do with Putin well I don't know what would you do Chuck Todd making decisions yes Todd does the seem that long ago when we were talking about how

9:43 does he go into his crystal ball and predict every play before it happens how do we get to this place I know I know plus he's going to have that Standalone game doing the Super Bowl everybody's going to have an opinion on Tony everybody and I don't think it helped Tony that he had the previous game over the weekend and then it led into Greg Olsen's game so you could compare those two and that's what a lot of people did and I thought Greg olssen had a really good game like it's I I just football fans know football I think you want to know what did you pick up in the moment like what what did you see that I didn't see without being lectured on it and I think that's really the key Tom Brady says that he's been studying broadcasters here you you have to be yourself and that's the hardest thing in this business when somebody says just be yourself well you don't know who you are Tom Brady doesn't know who he is as a

10:42 broadcaster now as a quarterback or maybe a guy who talks about football behind the scenes with his buddies but when every word is going to be analyzed and he's got this massive deal and we're going to expect Tom Brady to be Tom Brady the quarterback the greatest of all time and there have been a lot of guys who have done this uh Jim Brown Joe Montana I mean I I've worked with a number of guys who were great players they weren't great broadcasters and sometimes it takes somebody who wasn't a great player because the great player may have a hard time understanding why they're great they just do it whereas the guy who has to watch others do it to try to be better to try to compete it feels like that they're more analytical they they they see it whereas you know I just do it like if I said to Josh Allen explain you know how you do what you do he might not be able to do it or Michael Vic Patrick Mahomes they might not be

11:48 able to explain it and I always go back to when I ask John mackenro how do you do what you do and he goes I I don't know I just do it like it's all reactionary but I mean you prepare for that moment but in real time Tom has to be ready to go and tell you what just happened and I'm sure he has the football acument to be able to do it can you get it out in let's say 20 seconds cuz that's what it comes down to it's play byplay then you look back the analyst says what I saw this this is why this happened then they show a replay and then you say a little bit more and then you come back play byplay so it's 20 seconds it's 20 seconds back to play byplay might be 30 seconds might be 10 seconds hey be quiet the official is going to give us the call on this we're going to commercial break like all of these things where somebody going to be talking in Tom Brady's headset and it's different than you know the offensive

12:46 coordinator or Bill bich talking to you prior to you know the start of the play he's going to be hearing things you got to talk sometimes when somebody's talking to you you got to get along with that play-by-play voice you know he has to be able to see I think Jim Nance does an unbelievable job because he does have to kind of fit into Tony Romo's world because you got to go okay Tony and then he'll say what he says and then sometimes he may go long or he might say something it's a question and Jim has to get it back to the the game itself you know Joe Buck has it easy he's been friends with Troy for such a long period of time they know each other U too can work with anybody Collinsworth can work with anybody having that I you know I thought herb Street and Al Michaels you know it took them a little while to sync up but her's been working with Chris Fowler for a long period of time and Al

13:39 was working with Chris Collinsworth there is and even when I did Sports Center and I'd have a certain co-host working with them to understand sort of what they do how they do it uh Kenny M would be different than you know working with Rich ISAC and and you would have to adjust that way because every you want every body to be at their best and I think that'll be a challenge for Tom and it's not can you be critical I think that was the common mistake that I had I remember interviewing Troy when he was ready to take over the job this is many many years ago Joe Buck had a golf tournament in St Louis and I remember talking to Troy and he's just getting into broadcasting and I said you know are you able to be critical and it's really not that I think you have to just what you see you say what you see you don't go out of your way to be mean-spirited but you have to be honest with what you see if it's a bad call uh

14:38 a bad pass somebody should have had something know then then you call them out because that's the fans know that they want you to you know point out oh my god look what just happened there and I think that'll be important for Tom you don't have to be highly critical as much as you have to be highly analytical and I think there's a difference in that all right so the poll question for hour two is what SE no Conor we're going to say should Greg Olsen stay or go uh basically yeah uh yes yes okay you could stay and be the number two team there Tom's got a 10-year deal by the way and you know who negotiated that rert Murdoch's son at Fox yeah personally negotiated that yes Paul but Greg's kind of in the position where like Tom Brady's backup quarterbacks were a few years ago like Matt Matt Castle or garoo he came in because Brady decided to wait a year did really well probably overachieved and and had a big

15:43 stage this weekend now feels like he's being you know big-footed by Brady but there was a contract in place but it it's working out I think very well for Greg it it may take a year the last guy I want to be a backup quarterback to is Tom Brady well he plays forever yeah and he doesn't he got injured one year but the exposure that Olen got this one year because Brady sat a year is but he can't capitalize on it I I'm taking Olen to get a pay raise in the next year well I mean okay give him a pay raise I think I think it makes quite a bit yeah I don't know I think there's going be some shifting next year all right let me take a break uh Greg will join us here coming up next here on The Dan Patrick Show be sure to catch the LIVE edition of The Dan Patrick weekdays at 9:00 a.m.

20:21 Olen Fox NFL amas for the second straight year the journo is giving fans a chance to win free pizza the kicker dinks at any point in the Super Bowl Uh Kevin and Greg will team up with dejo to celebrate the all proo combo of pizza and football and discuss the big game's unpredictable outcomes and uh for more on this special discounts uh to enter for a chance to win go to djo ds.com Greg olssen joining us on the program Greg good to have you back uh let me go back to the fourth down call by the Lions and you said they disguised their coverage the Niners disguised their coverage on Jared gof when do you realize this and how that's going to affect the play and what you're going to say on TV yeah so what happened was so what a lot of teams do is they use their backs to their tight ends and they put them in unconventional formations where maybe they're outside the receiver or they're in the slot and they they want to get

21:22 tells so what happened there early and we came back and showed the replay is Dre Greenlaw was walked on jir Gibbs he was he was the furthest receiver out to the right so that was The Mantel for Jared Goff so you see Goff he brings Gibbs in from being out wide to put him back in the back field next to him in the gun and then gof gives the hand signal or the check or whatever the play is going to be so you'll see green law comes back in with them so it looks again that's a Manel you know a lot of the times and give credit to San Francisco and wils they ended up just zoning it out they ended up just shelling it out and they're running mad you know which is like guys Crossing each other like running shallow drags trying to run interference and run their mans and you know run their man coverage into each other and um they were running a man type concept against what ended up looking like man but playing like Zone

22:13 and that's why gof had nowhere to go early he tried to flush and get it late down the field to Aman Ross St Brown and was just off balance and didn't get enough on it so those are critical moments in the game right that's the chess match back and forth pre- snap tells post Snap tells um and in that critical moment they San Francisco got the stop they needed yeah and you did a great job in seeing it and saying it because you got to do it quickly play happens now what happened do you watch on the monitor or do you watch onto the field yeah so my process is so I have two monitors so I have my telestrator which is like the production that's what everyone sees on their TV at home right that's I have no bearing on that that just is just a copy of whatever is being broadcast into you know into the homes I have a sky cam which is like you know the cable cam behind the quarterback so I have that monitor and then I have an

23:05 all 22 but those are all on delays so they're on about a 4-second delay from what's actually happening on the field so I watch it live on the field which in essence is like an all 22 like you know from above and then I see it and then by the time Kevin is done with his call I can then either go to the all 22 or the sky based on what I want to see and then I can either confirm I can find analyze numbers get my make sure what I saw live is actually what I see and then by the time it's on my telestrator by the time it's you know Kevin is done and I got to jump in to talk I have a pretty good sense I saw it live I saw it on a quick little 4-second delay so I'm pretty certain that what I'm going to say is what happened and doesn't always play out that way but that's the me you know that's the method that I've developed in the booth the last couple years and and it's helped me just make sure what I say

23:55 I'm confident is what really happened and players will talk about the game slows down when you play the game like after a couple of years you eventually see it differently quarterbacks talk about it it slows down a little bit as a broadcaster did it slow down for you where it became easier oh absolutely you know the my my first year I I think I I always joke now with with our with our producer um Z I always say like I'm when I first started doing this I only had like a couple camera angles and it was probably for the best you know they probably had more just didn't want to overwhelm me so my replays were you know behind the defense behind the offense every once in a while in all 22 like from above or just like an ISO shot it's just all right it's gonna be on you know CD lamb or it's gonna be on you know whoever that was it and I would just do my telestrations and do my but then when I as I kept going I

24:47 realized oh my God there's a million more cameras and you just get more comfortable you get more fluid hey whatever they throw up on the telestrator it's not going to catch me off guard anymore but you know why watching the plays unfold on the field was always very natural to me I'll tell you the biggest transition Dan that I had was for my whole career watching game film I would always watch it from behind the offense so that was my perspective of seeing NFL football forever and now we sometimes do it from behind the defense they call it pit or you do it from like a a corner sideline where so you want to talk about the left guard but now you're doing it from behind the defense so he's actually on the right and you know so like little things like that I had to like retrain my brain that okay for 14 years you watched film like this well this isn't film this is live television and we're not going to just show the same camera

25:41 angle for three hours every weekend so little things like that you get better at and uh you know my my team spent a lot of time with me helping me progress through a lot of those things early on let's look at the Lions calls with a fourth down um did you agree with the call s and the plays that were called because they you sometimes you can call the right play but it doesn't turn out well but I'm curious from your perspective now three days later did they make the right calls on those fourth down yeah so first and foremost I think going for it was the right move for for multiple reasons and I know this has been like the hot button topic now since the game ended and we said it very early in the game right there's there's a way to be aggressive in the NFL there's two ways you can be aggressive in your play calling which we didn't think was what they were going to do I don't think Detroit wanted to come out and throw the

26:32 ball 50 times and throw it downfield and hold the ball and let that rush and I think that plays into the teeth of this San Francisco defense so they ran the ball we said hey lean on your run game run the ball run the ball and and they did in the first half especially but you can be aggressive in your game in your game strategy in your game management right and that's where Dan Campbell has no one's run more fake punts no one's converted more no one's attempted more fourth Downs are converted more that's been his style since he took over three years ago trying to build this winning culture there so when you're in a game like that against San Francisco the best part of your team if you're Detroit is your offense so if you're gonna put the burden if it's a coin flip decision or it's a I if I'm Dan Campbell I don't blame him for always putting the load on his offense it's the best unit of the

27:21 team they scored 31 points and lost yeah the notion that more conservative game management was the answer to score more points that's just not how the NFL works so the notion of hey just take the points there's no take the points on 48 yard field goals these are not gimme chip shots so I think that's where people lose it's like hey 48 yard or just tie the game up well last year in the Super Bowl we watched Harrison Buckner on Fourth and three in the first quarter hey San Francisco it's 77 just I mean Kansas City City go take the lead early get the lead and he doed it off the left crossbar he's the best kicker in the league they thought they were taking the points on Fourth and three and the score so like that's the narrative we have to stop when the kicker misses it it's the kicker when they go for it and they don't make it it's the coach we're talking to Greg Olsen NFL and fox analyst joining us

28:21 courtesy of Douro for more on what he's doing Douro ds.com uh since you played the position how would you defend Travis Kelce if you're the 49ers whether it's their safety or their linebackers what does he do and how do you stop what he's doing from your perspective man it's it's hard you know what he's doing is unprecedented and you know I've been on record calling his games and set it on broadcast and it I think we're starting I never thought anyone would ever catch Tony Gonzalez from a production standpoint from a lang longevity of his career and what he was able to do was was pretty remarkable when you saw Tony compared to the you know two three four guys as far as production and what he was able to accomplish over a long time I think Kelsey's either arrived already or he's nipping at his heels because he should have had 8,000 yard seasons in a row he didn't play in the last game I think he

29:18 needed like 15 yards so in essence he was going to get it it wasn't that big of a deal to him his Playoff records I mean when you're breaking Jerry Rice's records you're entering a new Stratosphere of production in the postseason but as far as stopping him I don't I don't know if you're ever going to like completely shut him down I I do think the challenge of Kelsey is he's not running conventional routes that you can really prepare for it's not hey he's going to run 14 yards and hook a left and he's going to catch this ball two yards outside the hash mark So on your Zone drops drop there right you're not because if you drop there he's going to stop his route and end somewhere else like he's playing improv in the moment real time decision route running and momes sees it the exact same way so it's very hard so I how I would defend him I think you got to get on him I think the more space he has to run and weave and

30:09 find feel him and Mahomes are just playing at a different level than maybe anybody ever so I think you got to get on them I think you got to reroute them I think you've got to be at the line of scrimmage getting them with people behind you to help I I don't think this is like hey one zone coverage one concept one player this is a group effort and you have to be really good in critical Downs because when it matters the most Mahomes is throwing him the ball so you better have an answer for him and very few teams have given your situation at Fox now as a broadcaster what do you want to do moving forward I want to call top games you know and I I I feel you know two years ago and when everything unfolded and you know obviously I've known Tom was coming for you know over you know two years year and a half whatever you want to call it and uh you know that part of it we always knew it was a matter of when

31:01 we didn't know exactly when the timeline you ended up not coming this past season which gave me a second year with Kevin in the booth with the A Team but you know going forward my my goals haven't changed you know my goals when I started out calling games with Fox you know three years ago was I aspired to be a top broadcaster I really thought I could do it I thought if given the opportunity and the chance I could show people that I could do it and I got the opportunity and fox was kind of enough to give me that and I think over the last two years we've really changed the narrative I think we've changed where hey this is just a placeholder this is got to being like no this this guy can do it so my my goals and aspirations if anything have even gotten more committed to I want to call top games I want to call games in front of 57 million people and and dive into the biggest moments and why it's

31:50 happening and I feel like we've done as good a job as that as anybody in the industry over the last couple seasons and where that is how that is when that is I don't know right there's so many moving Parts out of my control but my goal is to be a top a broadcaster again and I'm gonna do everything in my power to achieve that and um that's been the goal that I've laid out since I entered this field upon retirement three years ago would you ask for a trade we I'm not really in the business of making demands you know I'm not sitting here holding anyone's feet to the fire fox understands the position I'm in understand what my aspirations are um and you know we're not sitting there banging the table and saying we you have to let us you know I we're not in that we're not doing that you know we we understand what we signed up for uh they understand where I where I am and being at this stage of my career of

32:44 where I want to go and I think we're all we understand the delicate situation that we're in right I I I understand when Tom Brady's looming over your shoulder it's the biggest news in sports I get it he's Tom Brady he's someone I've respected for damn 20 years um so I I I understand the the uniqueness of what's going on and I feel like we've handled it as well as we could for the last two years and if I can get another opportunity to call top games at Fox or somewhere else we'll we'll cross that bridge when we get there if I put you and Brady in the octagon and the winner gets to call the top games on Fox that'd be quite that'd be quite the pay-per-view I think Tom stays in better shape I think he he works more than I have uh I'm my my men's tennis my men's tennis clinics on Wednesday nights I don't think uh I don't think have me quite in fighting shape and I'm not I'm not fighting Tom Brady that that's a

33:39 losing battle uh you're probably not gonna win uh give me the plug that you and Kevin are working on uh Before We Say Goodbye well we talked about earlier with the dink from last year so again for the second year djo's got this fun program where if one of the kickers dinks the ball you know so for for those who don't know dink is like the ball hits the upright the crossbar and makes you know makes the dink noise which there was one last year the Chiefs kicker Harrison Buckner um which again was fourth and three and he DED it so we can leave that there um if you register you go to joural dinks register uh you enter if there's a dink in the Super Bowl you get a chance to win free pizza and football the Super Bowl win free pizza it's a win for everybody but the kicker I guess you did a great job and you're doing a great job answering these questions I know that you're getting the same ones over and over and

34:31 everybody thinks there's going to be a different answer so uh good luck with this and uh there's no shame in if you're calling you know the second best games on Fox you I mean you you're you're still doing it for a living and that's really important but wanting to be better greater that's the important part uh you know that game should not mean less because it's not as important as you know that the Marquee game so good luck with that As you move forward and you and Kevin certainly made a wonderful team thank you Greg I appreciate it thanks for having me that's Greg Olsen NFL and fox analyist former tight end went to three Pro bowls and uh first round pick by the Panthers yes PA that was well handled by Greg ol yeah I it was a both a confident answer but using the word word we often you know like we here's what my team my people you know it was very well answered with your question because it's

35:25 it's a tough situation he's in yeah because you can't say you know I'm better than Tom and he might be better than Tom it's better if we say he's great than if he says he's great yeah but his confidence was great yeah well he should have that now you called a game in front of 57 million people I mean I handed out a Super Bowl trophy in front of 100 million but take that yeah yeah haven't asked me back though you chose like Ben Johnson yes I did I chose not to hand out the Super Bowl trophy cuz your demands were also crazy or yes I had crazy demands there uh Marcus Marcus I only want to hand it to Tom yes he retires I retire yes if Tom's not playing I'm not handing out Super Bowl trophy uh hey Marcus what's on your mind today hey morning Dan first time long time 56150 Ah that's awesome bucket list check excellent hey first off Dan I've been driving about 70,000 miles a year for about the last 20 years I cannot St

38:22 wise on this show I will have intimate conversations with some of the biggest names in sports in music entertainment in fashion and we will discuss the wise in their lives everybody Welcome Rick Ross to the podcast my God my brother Melo Lindsey Bon Pal Gasol Pat Riley D welcome listen to the why with Dwayne Wade on the iHeart Radio app Apple podcast or wherever you can get your podcast what's up people this is Cam Jordan all proo defensive end with the New Orleans Saints I'm known for my work on the field there's pressure he'll go down that is going to be Cam Jordan but I also do work off the field as host of the off the edge with Cam Jordan podcast if you've tuned in I appreciate you if you haven't no better time than now to catch up on the great combos we've had with guys like the eagles Darius Slay the Steelers cam Hayward and Max Crosby from the Raiders but it's not all ball here yes I'm the son of a former NFL

39:27 player but I'm also a husband a father of four and I got 34 years of life experiences to share with the people so when I'm not befriending babies let me see this baby baby Hi how are you today or taking selfies with fans hit it oh no you weren't even ready Perfect come see me right here on the off the edge with Cam Jordan podcast get new episodes every Wednesday through the playoffs and superow 58 listen on the iHeart Radio app Apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast the NFL playoffs are here here and there's no better way to stay up to date on the latest from our league than listening to the around the NFL podcast join me Dan hus and my pals Mark cesler and Greg Rosenthal for upto-date news with just a touch of Mirth we just wrapped up our 11th regular season together wow 11 years can you believe it Mark 11 Seasons it feels like more it's s dog we've made it through 18 weeks of regular season football now the fun

40:18 starts the postseason because this is when football is really back football is back we've been doing this together a long time in the playoffs always offer up something we haven't seen before we'll preview and recap every game we make sure you don't miss out on any of those historic plays along the way I'm ready Greg is ready are you ready cess dog I'll be here so you should listen to every word we say about every play we watch playoff football let's go the around the NFL podcast is all you need as we make our way through the playoffs into Las Vegas for Super Bowl 58 listen to the around the NFL podcast on the iHeart Radio app Apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast he the call I'm looking at the numbers here since Dan Campbell took over as the Lions head coach 54 games he's gone forward on fourth down 123 times he's converted 65 times at 52 almost 53% nick serani uh he's at 63% Kevin stefansky is second on the

41:19 list at almost 50% that the Browns have gone for it 107 times and inverted 53 times but as Greg Olsson said look he agreed with them going for it on fourth down that's who you are your offense is the best side of the ball I really believe that Dan Campbell knew his defense it wasn't a question of if but when they were going to allow San Francisco back into this and I think they got to the point where and he got to the point where he needed to go forward to continue to put pressure on them but Greg Olson's right if you said the lions were we going to score 31 points you would think that would be enough know the Lions defense certainly didn't live up to uh its portion of the game all right uh time to play the Tom Brady game the allnew Tom Brady game and Paulie takeover is the host of the allnew Tom Brady game thanks Dan all right game show music for it's a two-part game um how is Tom Brady used next year

42:23 by Fox as a straight game analyst or are other elements mixed in with him part two if you were predicting the re reaction to Tom Brady's first couple weeks on air they will be what I'll go to fritzy first two parts I think that they're going to have him try to do a little of everything I think it's going to start within the uh in the broadcast Booth but he should be expected to have other roles and I know we had talked about this before in TV and movies and stuff but as far as the sports I think they're going to try them out in the studio as well through the course of that first first season and I think the reviews are going to be mixed but they will be negative at first and then we will gradually uh he'll gradually improve and then we'll gradually notice that Improvement if that makes sense uh hopefully Tom uses brevity too when he's broadcasting there uh SE not go to you I'm sorry what was the question again

43:15 okay a long time ago what will Tom do and how will it be received Bas yeah yeah that's uh well I think he's going to be in the booth that's pretty clear uh I think it's going to be a negative I think that Tom Brady is a big name but he has a lot of people who really don't like him um so I don't think he's going to get a warm reception okay more polarizing Tom Brady or Taylor Swift Marvin he's going to be in a booth cuz they're paying him a ton yeah and the review is going to be negative even if it's unfair they're going to be negative regardless be in the boo I think the reviews will be hey he's surprisingly good I think people will be surprised at how Tom S we're not used to hearing Tom do a game and I think when we hear it how he fits in with the Cadence there there's a there's a like a syncopation here that happens it's you have to understand the rhythm of the game the role you play I

44:19 think people will be pleasantly surprised at Tom's performance yes eeden this is not meant to be disrespectful to the job at all but but Tom Brady I feel like is bigger than that job and to me the thing that I'm really struggling with is obviously you want the name on your team but what do you do with them to me it's not well put them in the booth and he'll call Lions games you know I just don't think that that's what you should do with him and I think he might be very good in that role and he can probably analyze a game just as good or not better than anybody I think that you need to get him with players cuz that's where where you really see his personality come out and you need to get him on the field with guys where they're like ah yeah Tommy and you get to see the real Tommy come out or or the we see Tom Brady but players know Tommy we need to get find Tommy and get him on TV just like bellich when you here man

45:12 he's got a great sense of humor oh dude's hilarious you need to find that guy and have him be a broadcaster I don't know that Tom Brady is going to do it but if you could get Tommy now you really have something yeah Paul yeah I think he'll be used in the booth because that's his a contract but I think think he's going to take over stray hand's role of doing the player interview for the pregame show Tom will sit with momes Tom will sit with saquan Barkley and it'll be a big chunk of the pregame show and I think he'll do cins at halftime they'll go to Tom out in the at the thing they'll be use them like the way the Manning cast you know they don't just let the Mannings do the Manning cast they're in in all other elements of it pton but does the Manning cast feel elevated over just calling a game even though there's more people who are watching watching the game itself but I'm just thinking of of Tom's

46:00 contemporaries that you know you have Payton running a business John Elway was you know running a team um you Joe Montana is not doing anything now but um I'm just wondering Tom doing a game you know Troy's doing games as you know Hol of Famer yeah see see the problem with doing another Manning cast is that you're doing another Manning cast you're going to do a worse version of what they're already doing just perception wise it's not going to be as good they're going to try to improve on something that doesn't need to be improved on right now well I'm not saying he should do that I'm saying is what the Mannings do feel elevated from just calling a game like they're on constantly you see them all the time they're having fun they got their buddies there whereas Tom's going to be calling a game and not every game's going to be you know the Lions against the 49ers with you you know 51 million people so that that's what I was

46:59 sort of wondering is it going to be exciting enough for Tom Brady yeah Paul like the Mannings have an entire business they have a whole production company and I kind of thought that's the way Tom would go I think people were surprised when he took this job well he's also involved with the Raiders but I don't know if he's to what degree if the owners have approved that but being involved in ownership okay yes uh Marvin you guys are just talking about the excitement of being out there and being at stadiums him being in the studio that might be after one season all right this is enough I can't be in a stuffy studio in wherever they student in Los Angeles oh no and and that happened when I did football night in America you know Drew Brees if you go into the studio it's sterile like these guys are so used to going into a stadium and you're being with people and you feed off the crowd and Drew Brees went in there and you

47:53 know didn't enjoy it even Tony dunie and Rodney Harrison when they went in there you know I said look it's a sterile environment you have to create the excitement the tension because you don't have to create that when you go to a football field go into into a stadium even if you're not playing it's there and even when we would be on the road whether it was for a conference title game or we would be at the Super Bowl that energy you could tell the former players former coaches it was different completely different when you get out in the elements as opposed to being in a studio coming up next hour I think the NBA has a scoring problem there's too much scoring Jim Jackson former all NBA guard NBA on TNT will join us coming up also it's Steph Curry against Sabrina iesu Three-Point Contest I love that she uses the WNBA ball from WNBA three-point range and he of course abides by the NBA rules I love
