53:59 ↗

Yeah, he was outstanding this year. I think Mike's point is correct and wondering if he could sustain that touchdown rate. I would not expect him to, but he is still a guy that. Top 10 next year? That has it. He's usually right around there. Ryan Tanna Hill, Drew Brees. I'll take Brees. Well, if they, if they cost the same, I would definitely take Drew Brees. Well, that's fantasy finish. That's what I'm asking. Yes. Yep.

54:26 ↗

Impressive year. The other guy I just wanted to bring out because he, oh, he just dominated. He dominated the commercials. He dominated the offseason. And, you know, let's, let's 2020 vision here. Number 20, Baker Mayfield, consistency rank of number 20s. So many 20s. He was drafted as the quarterback four. Man, someone should have put him as a bust in the ultimate draft kit. But, oh, wait, didn't you guys?

54:55 ↗

Oh, yeah, you did. We have a opinion. What would you like? O'Dell Beckham was not himself. He wasn't there at all last year. So I don't, you know, the hype was out of control. That was always the argument. I'm not going to sit here and say that I thought, or I doubt you will either, that you'd get a 20th overall season from Baker with the weapons that he had. I don't think any of us saw that. But what we saw was that rising average draft position and said, well, you know what? He's not going to return on that.

55:23 ↗

Right. Some of us went further than that and said that the entire team was going to be a cesspool of disaster, and that would be Jason, who actually, they didn't win the Super Bowl this year, so you're one for two on your demise. Hot stat from our editor-in-chief, the Borgogan, Kyle. Cyborg. That's what we're going with. We're going with Cyborg. No, Kai-Borg. Oh, Kyborg. Okay. That's not bad, right? Come on board. With the Kaiborg. Talked about Baker-Mayfield.

55:52 ↗

On his breakout campaign, 20 touchdowns, zero interceptions in the red zone. That is insane. It was like old school Marioita. That is, it's not sustainable. Those are one of the things that we highlighted of, look, he's not this good because nobody is that good. And in fact, he went completely the opposite direction and was tied for the lead in red zone interceptions and having the worst completion percentage.

56:19 ↗

among qualified starters in the red zone. And I don't think he's that guy either. Let me ask you what he is. Do you believe in Baker Mayfield the future valuable fantasy player? Ooh, fantasy.

56:34 ↗

Yes, but future is the key for me there because I think he's going to have a very long career and I think he's going to be good and he'll have decent fantasy years. Next year, which is what really matters, I think you've got to worry about how good this run game and how much they want to center the team around the run game, especially coming. Better career statistics. Baker Mayfield, Derek Carr, when it's all said and done.

57:02 ↗

Since Mike said that Carr is incredibly average, I'm using average as the barrier. Do you actually believe Baker's better than average? I do believe he's better than average. Career stats. Stefansky's going to be around for at least a couple years. Maybe. He'll get, I'm saying, I think he'll get at least two. Maybe they have success and he's there a long time, but I'm just saying minimum two years. Zero games this year for Baker of.

57:27 ↗

25 or more points. Zero great games. I think Baker will have the better stats. If for no other reason, the league is becoming more and more of a passing league. And, you know, we always talk about the younger generation, their stats will always just outperform the older generation. I'd like to bet on Baker in that situation for longevity's sake and the idea that.

57:49 ↗

He'll play longer than Carwill with a starting job, but I'm not so sure about it. It's a nasty, good question. All right, I think that'll wrap it up for us. Again, a reminder, head to beat theballers.com if you want in on that Super Bowl, beat the ballers competition, 10,000 buckaroos. Also, ultimate draft kit.com, get on the lowest possible price and get entered into these contests. Sunday.

58:13 ↗

So yes, this Sunday. You can go now and you can look at it. But Sunday, you can actually take care of things. The Super Bowl dip. The moment you've all been waiting for the dip, fellas, if you're like me, you're not very handy around the kitchen. If you left that sentence open, we were going to fill it. That's why I handled it. If you're like me, not so blank, we were going at it. Not so good at saving lives.

58:39 ↗

Okay. Yeah, I have that one forever. But no, so the dip, a half pound of sweet Italian sausage. You brown it up. Then you take one can of rotel. I use the mild because my family is averse to spices because they're a bunch of cowards. And then one block of Philly cream cheese. Do not use substitute cream cheese. Use Philly, not a sponsor.

59:03 ↗

But I'm just telling you your mouth. For the dips sake. Yes. So half a pound sweet Italian sausage, browned up, one can, rotel, one block, Philly cream cheese. Just throw that in any kind of slow cooker until it's melted and hot and ready to go. And you're going to look like a Super Bowl party hero. All right. It has become a staple of the Super Bowl parties here at Foot Clan headquarters. I'm sure we'll be sharing some of our festivities around the Super Bowl with you.
