Full transcript with timestamps
kind enough to join us once again with so much happening is Sports Illustrated's Albert Brer. Good to see you, Bird. How are you, buddy?
Hey, Rich. How we doing? Sorry, I was coming in hot. Uh got caught in a little traffic on my on the way home.
No kidding. Oh, no. Yeah, it's um there was I think like when when there's even the prospect of a snowstorm now up here, which you're a native to the Northeast um
a lot of people get on the roads. Um, and I don't know if they're emergency shopping at the grocery store or whatever, but uh, yeah, it was pretty busy out there.
Well, uh, you know, from what I hear what's coming in New England that, um, we're going to there's going to be a captive audience for sure
for the AFC Championship game uh, with the snow hitting. Uh but before we get to anything for championship weekend, I would love to know your thoughts backstory uh of the firing of Shawn McDermott that led to a
press availability of owner Terry Pigula and the new GMP [clears throat] president of football operations of um uh the Buffalo Bills in Brandon Bean. What led to all of that? What do you have? Yeah. So, I think what you've seen over the last week is a lot of the tension and pressure that was on everybody over the course of the last three or four months spilling out. Um, I don't think and and you can I mean you can see it by the way their interviews list has been kind of cobbled together now. You know, I don't think that there was any major discussion between ownership and anybody else in that building about doing this. Yet, you know, I think as November became December, as December became January, as the AFC bracket materialized and um there's no Joe Burrow in there, there's no Lamar Jackson in there. Most of all, there's no Patrick Mahomes in there. Um there was just this tension and pressure
that didn't exist before in that building. And I think, you know, when you look at Josh Allen's emotion coming out of the game, when you look at Shawn McDermott's reaction to the officiating coming out of the game, and now this with Terry Pigula, it's almost like all of that has spilled out. Um, you know, like this has been, I think, one of the most well-run organizations in the sport over the last nine years since Shawn McDermott and Brandon Bean got there. And so, I mean, to me, it's really eye opening watching that. I mean, it's like watching a car crash in real time, you know, over the last few days there. And so, um, they still have good people there and I trust they get it right, but the optics of it aren't good. You know, throwing a player who's still on your roster and Keon Coleman under the bus the way that they did. Um, and I think like I don't think it was all that graceful the way that Terry Pagula
talked about Shawn McDerman either. You know, it kind of felt a little bit like you're kicking a guy when he's down. Um, which I'm sure, you know, if he had a second chance at that, maybe he would word some of the things a little bit differently. Um, you know, and then I think the optics of of promoting Brandon Bean. I think Brandon Bean's one of the most capable general managers in all of football. However, you have to understand the way this is going to look, you know, and um you I think of the scene from Office Space where I can't remember what the guy's name was, but I I the character, you know, the main character in Office Space and um the other guys had just been let go and um you know, they they go to tell him and then he's like he's like, "Well, yeah, I got promoted. I know it's not fair."
you know what I mean? Like it just sort of felt that way. And um you the reality of it is like this is sort of a restructure for them and they're going to what Pigula has in the NHL um with the Sabres, maybe what he's more comfortable with, which is you're going from having um your coach and GM report to ownership to now having the coach report to the GM and the GM report to ownership. So they're they're restructuring a little bit here. At least that's the idea. We'll see if whe we we'll see it whether whether or not like whoever the new coach is changes that at all. Um but a messy week alto together and a restructuring of the organization that's part of it and it's hard not to think that when you listen to the words right and you listen to them say like what happened in Denver was the reason why it sort of I think brings to light you know just how tense and how scattershot everything's been
there the last few days because it does make it sound like it was an emotional decision rather than rather than one that that you normally take some time clear heads and things of that nature and pagula still seem to be hot. He seemed to be not only hot about the way it ended in Denver, but also um the way he's clearly attuned to narratives that have been ascribed to his general manager and one particular player and Keon Coleman. And unfortunately for them um you know, one of the more shared pieces of video I saw on socials yesterday, Albert, was the hard knocks in which Brandon Bean is clearly on board with Keon Coleman. not his own idea, but let's place that aside for the moment and say, so you're saying there's a new structure in Buffalo. Um, basically the structure that John Harbaugh just undid with the Giants. So if Brier, I'm sorry, if if if Brian Dable comes to Buffalo, he'd be familiar
with that setup of of co of reporting to the the general manager. And is that part and parcel of of what's going on there? I mean, Dave Ball would be a familiar choice. Um, and one that I think maybe does need to be sold to the fan base in terms of his wins and losses, but what what do you think, Albert?
It's kind of interesting because a couple days ago I heard probably not. Um, but I think Josh Allen's involvement in this is a factor and Josh is very very close with Brian Dval. And so, you know, I I do think that they're going into this with an open mind, but you can clearly see like a lot of the guys that they're bringing in have connections. Joe Joe Brady works there now, right?
And then you have Brian Dal who was there this morning and you have Anthony Lynn who worked there previous to this regime. So like there's familiar faces that are coming in to interview there and um you know like so it kind of that's why I said when they when they bring when they put this list together it does feel a little bit like all right like we've got to kind of cobble something together and and and hustle something together and kind of collect what we're doing you know because it it it just didn't feel like this is something where okay I'm pulling the list out of my drawer and it's been ready for two months and here we you know, and obviously they're later and part of that is, you know, the fact that they were in the second round of the playoffs, which puts them behind the other nine teams that had openings. It's only six now, or it's only five now, but the other nine teams that had openings
had a jump start on them. Um, or head start on them. So, I, you know, I I think Dall's candidacy is is interesting because I think this is going to be a Josh Allen centric hire. I would also say that this is a golden opportunity that for them and I think all those guys realize it that you may never have this sort of carrot to put in front of coaching candidates before where you've got Josh Allen a few months from his 30th birthday in the prime of his career. He's the best player in the sport. You're going into a new stadium.
I mean, if you're doing this again in four or five years, you don't know that Josh Allen's going to be still in the same state he is now based on um you the mileage he's already got on his body, you know? So, I think you have to treat this as a golden opportunity. So, they're going to go through these interviews. Would I be surprised if you take a big swing? If they they were to take a big swing, I wouldn't be surprised because that's what this sort of opportunity dictates, at least in my mind.
Albert Preer from Sports Illustrated is MMQB must read every single week here on the Rich Eisen Show. What who pops next? Ravens pop next. What what's your what's your general sense here?
I I think like the the Ravens situation is is another one that's interesting and I I put them in the Steelers category and that one um they've made very successful off the board hires. John Harbaugh and Mike Tomlin were off the board hires, right? Like that wasn't anybody's hot candidate in ' 07 or ' 08. And they have a lot to sell. So this isn't like some sort of reclamation project for anyone coming in. And I think you know the flip side of it is for that reason the candidates have to fit them as much as you know they have to build something for their coaching candidates. So I think it's at least interesting that Jesse Mentor was just in there yesterday. He worked there before.
They know him. They've been able to see Mike McDonald success in Seattle. Mike McDonald and Jesse Mentor worked together in Baltimore and Mentor succeeded McDonald at Michigan and had similar success and now Jesse Mentor is cancelling his interview at the Browns today. Um, just interesting. Mentor also interviewed with the Raiders the day before that. They're Michigan connections there too with Tom Brady and John Spyc. Um, so that's an interesting name. I think Brian Flores is seen as a program fit for Baltimore. Um, you know, I but I but I again like I look at them as one, you know, Clint Kubak's another one that has some some ties there. Um, I think that's one where they can be patient and let the process play out.
Um, but it wouldn't shock me if you know Jesse Mentor wound up being the guy. Yeah, that that that wouldn't shock me either. So, uh, who are the Browns looking at? Well, I mean, like I think I I felt like all along like Jim Schwarz sort of had the inside track here. I think they want to keep Jim Schwarz in the building. U based on what they they know about him. And if you really drill down like if we're being fair about this, Jim Schwarz, his time in Detroit, you know, his third year they broke through. He took over a winless team. His third year they break through and make the playoffs for the first time in forever. And I think what kind of took them down there was more a roster building thing than anything else. Like I think he really believed he had really believed um that he he like that he could make it work with kind of some weward players and they had a disastrous draft in 11 with
Nick Fairley and Titus Young and Mikuel Lashure where um that like Jeff Fischer Titans model didn't really work for them. Um, but I think there's some there's some merit to the idea of of Jim Schwarz. And again, I think they'd like to keep him in the building in some capacity. And then you look at the young offensive names. Grant Yiddenski is going to be in there tomorrow, the Jaguars offensive coordinator. He's only 30. They're hoping for a chance to talk to Nathan Schilhhouse, the Rams pass game coordinator early next week when he's allowed to to to to do a second interview with them.
So, I I I I think Jim Schwarz I think their preference is to have Jim Schwarz as part of the equation. And you know, I think it'll either be Jim Schwarz or one of these young offensive guys with Jim Schwarz as the defensive coordinator.
So, let's talk Raiders, Albert. What's happening with them? Uh, another Tom Brady hire, uh, with him in the mix and they've got the first overall pick as well. So,
um, obviously that's going to be part of the interview process, visions of, uh, Fernando Mendoza or who they think is the first overall pick. What are you hearing about the Raiders approach here?
So, they're very cognizant that the quarterback is going to have to be accounted for in all of this, right? Like, so that does not mean you have to hire an offensive coach. However, if Jesse Mentor, who they like a lot, is going to get the job, there's going to have to be a detailed plan for, okay, here's our offensive coordinator, here's our quarterback's coach, here's how we're going to bring him along. And when we lose our offensive coordinator, if that happens in a year or two, here's the guy who's going to replace him who I'm going to put on my staff right now.
I think it has to be something like that, right? For them to be convinced not to go with an offensive guy. So, I think Miner is in the in in the running. And um presuming he has a plan for all of that, which I he's really sharp and he's interviewed really well. I I I would think that that that that box would be checked by him. I think he's in the running. Uh Davis Webb to me might be the most interesting name though. Um he's incredibly well thought up. He hasn't coached for very long is the problem, but he played in the league recently. He's my understanding like got like a a passing relationship with Tom Brady, but he's got two offensive coordinator names that I know are on this list that have tight connections to Brady. and one is Brian Dal who could wind up going to Tennessee as the coordinator, could go to Buffalo as the head coach, but Brian Dball is one name for Davis Webb. They were together both
in New York and Buffalo when Davis was a player. And the other is Cliff Kingsbury who almost went to Vegas a couple years ago as a coordinator who's tight with Brady. And so I I think Davis Webb has a ton of head coach qualities. And I think part of it is the same thing with the Rams. the Rams had with McVey, right? Like which is like I remember talking to the Rams front office people when they hired Shawn and the whole thing was well we can hire him now a year early or we just won't get him at all because if he doesn't get a job this year he's going to get one next year and we're not going to be looking for one next year. Right?
So, I think with Davis, that's part of the logic is do we go in early on a guy, a year early with a guy, bring in an experienced offensive coordinator who can work with the quarterback and just bet on this guy's upside. And so, I think Davis Webb has a shot in Vegas under that sort of of setup.
Albert Brer here on the Rich Eisen Show. All right, let's turn to Championship Sunday before I let you go on with the rest of your Thursday. your your uh opinion of Jared Stidum's readiness
is what I've talked to a handful of people about him who've worked with him, coached him over the course of the last um few days. So, his story is fascinating. Had kind of a rough upbringing. Um was a blue chip high school quarterback at a at a at a Texas small school powerhouse. Goes to Baylor. Was going to be the guy there. Then then he gets caught in the crossfire, the Art Briles thing. No fault of his own, of course, but winds up transferring to Auburn. Not a great system for a young quarterback there, but he makes it work. And then the Patriots gamble on him. And they take him in 19 with the idea like this guy is going to be a good guy to have in the pipeline. Sort of like Jimmy Garopppolo was a few years earlier. He had a chance to start in 20. He had a back injury that kind of limited him a little bit that off season. And then COVID wiped out OTAAS and mini camp. And then Bill goes and signs Cam Newton um on July 1st
and the opportunity to start goes away. The Patriots then draft M. Jones the next year. So that window that he had to become the starter there had shut, but Josh McDaniel still thought enough of him when he got to Vegas the next year to trade for him. And then they tried to bring him back the following year but got outbid by Shawn Peyton who brought him in as Russell Wilson insurance. And then STDM stays the next year when Knicks is drafted. And now they reup with him again at two years and $12 million. So Shawn Peyton like the idea that he can handle my offense because he's played for Josh McDaniels. I'm told he's been fantastic behind the scenes the last couple of years. a key part of Boon Knicks's development and having the right sort of quarterback room. He's got swagger. He's got a skill set that's not that different than Nick's. Now, my question would be with with with Stidum, can he make the four or five throws at
the end of the game that Bon Knicks was making consistently? There's a reason why Bon Knicks was coming back in all those games. Seven fourth quarter comebacks, another one in the playoffs that broke a Broncos record, the franchise of John Elway and Peyton Manning, right? Knicks was making those throws at the end of the game. so can can steer to make those throws. But I can just tell you just talking to people, he's not going to shrink to this moment. Like what people who know him best and the people who coached him say is if this guy makes a mistake, it might be a couple picks because of overconfidence, but he's going to go out there and swing it. And if Shawn Payeyton makes this work and wins a Super Bowl for Jared STDM, Shawn Peyton walks into Canton, I think.
Don't you? Of course. Yeah. Right. Yeah. So, don't you think Shawn Payeyton Don't you know Shawn? I know Shawn
Don't you think Shawn would love to see to to to to to say to everybody right now, "Watch this."
Of course. Yeah. I mean, he he'd love to do that. And he'd love a shot at the Rams, who, as you know, went to the Super Bowl in Atlanta rather than his Saints,
you know, um with the with the pass interference that wasn't called. I mean, we Yeah. his his competitiveness and his sort of you know hackles are are very we're we're familiar with it and it's very famous.
The bottom line though is a guy hasn't I have the number right here. He hasn't thrown a pass in 749 days.
And that's that's the difference, right? Because that's the difference because like we can make the comparisons to Jeff Hostetler and Nick Fos and and even Tom Brady, right? And and Kurt Warner, those guys all had runway, right? Like Warner like Warner, Trent Green got hurt in the summer. Yeah. Tom Brady, Drew Brezo got hurt in September. like Fos and Hostettler are closer, but both those guys had regular season games that they started at the end of the year leading into the playoffs. So, this is different. You know what I mean? Like, this one is not the same as those. And that's why I I can't wait to see how he plays, Rich. I mean, you know, you'd like to see every team be at full strength and that's not really possible because of the nature of the sport. Um, and you'd certainly like to see the best quarterbacks going, but um I just think this is a fascinating story. I mean, I I just can't get out of my head how well
Teddy Bridgewwater played in an emergency situation for the Saints in 2019. Went 5-0 when Drew Brees got hurt. It like it I just I don't know if Jared Stdum would work for for 17 games, you know, as a starting quarterback for for the Broncos. But do I think that Shawn Peyton might be able to make it work for two? I mean, he might be able to.
What's your take on the NFC Championship game before I let you go? Yeah. So, like I think that I I I think the Seahawks are the best roster left. Um I think they've shown that, right? Like so we saw how complete they were. I mean that the first the first quarter of that game against San Francisco was like the definition of complimentary football, that cliche, right? Like it was kick return for a touchdown, turnover on downs, offense cashes it in, turnover, offenses cashes in, right? So, um I think they're the most complete team left. I think like the Stafford Ram like these Rams are very different than the Rams that were there four years ago.
And I think part of it is Shawn McVeyy's reaction to Kyle Shanahan having his number and he knew they had to get tougher and he knew they had to get more rugged and over the summers in the last couple of summers they've gotten um you know they've had longer practices they've had more contact they've invested in the lines of scrimmage. Kevin Dodson coming over from Pittsburgh to play at guard has become one of the best guards in football. They invested in Jonah Jackson. That didn't work out as much, but that was another investment up front. The defensive front verse Fisk, uh Kobe Turner, Young, like all those guys are big, rugged guys, and they were built to build beat the NerS.
They're built to beat the Seahawks, too, you know, to stand up to a really tough Seahawks team. So, I I think if the Rams are going to win this game and beat a really really good Seahawks team, the formula is going to be let's take let's turn this game into a street fight and you know, we'll get to the point where there's five minutes left and then number nine goes down on the table as our trump card. You know, I um it's a very different way that they won the Super Bowl four years ago, but I think there's a real path to victory there and what's going to be an unbelievable environment for football.
All right, man. Stay uh stay uh warm. Uh stay out of the snow there. Well, I'll be in Denver and then Alabama, so I'm actually missing it, but I appreciate your concern.
Oh boy. Oh man. Family minus dad without the in a snowstorm. I got you. Emily feels Emily feels great about it. Let me tell you.
Listen, we we all know who the allstar in that the All Pro in that house is. Uh Alabama's in reference to the Senior Bowl, correct?
Senior Bowl is right now, man. Here we go. Mhm. Here we go. It's that time of year. Well, obviously look for my uh my my request for your time that from there, too. As always, thanks, buddy. You be well.
All right. Thanks, Rich. Albert Brer here on the Rich Eisen Show. Yeah, Albert.
