Inside the episode

66 passages
54:20 ↗

The fire defensive coordinator. Kyle, help me out here. Anarumo, not origami. Samsonite. Lou Anarumo was the fault. So to me, it's like, you've got the best freaking offensive football. You're doing all the right stuff. I know what you're saying there. Obviously, the defense was the issue for this team. And they went to the Super Bowl with Zach Taylor. But there were, there are still just on a on a game by game basis, play calling a decision making and cowardice that I think is. You've never forgiven him for P. Ryan. Oh, it's Super Bowl. That's one of a hundred, man. No, you didn't even remember that one. You bring it up. Yes, you did. You bring it up all the time because you have particular plays you don't like. And maybe you're right. Maybe this is one of those teams like that needs to make the change to take further advantage of Joe Burrow. I mean, the Bulls did it.

55:12 ↗

With Jordan, right? They moved on from winning seasons. Yeah, from a good coach to a great coach. The Warriors did it, right? They won a lot of games with Mark Jackson, went on to Steve Kerr. Like Harbaugh coming into the Chargers feels like what I want to have happened for the Bengals. But to be fair, I don't know that there's a hard ball sitting out there. Is there a great coach that doesn't have a job? I mean, Bill Belichick was available. I do not want Bill Belichick coaching my team. I think everyone thinks that, including NFL teams. Yes, they have.

55:43 ↗

They have proven that. It's like, you're the best, but like, no, thank you. He's just, he's, he's, he's so old. Yeah, he is, he is quite old. But Pete Carroll got a job. Carol, yeah. And I, would you have been more excited for the Raiders with Carol or Belichick? Um, oh, that's a good question. That's funny because I, my, my answer is, I think it's Carol. Yeah, mine too. Carol, because Pete Carroll is more willing to do something like bring Chip Kelly in where Belichick will come in and. I mean, the greatest coach of all time. Bill Belichick with no Tom Brady. Mm-hmm. The end there. One of them went and won a Super Bowl. The other one faded into the mist. I wish. Why can't you just have, like, co-head coaches, like two? Brilliant offensive mind, brilliant, defensive mind. That's kind of what the coordinators are. Yeah. No, but that's all there is. There's just two. So there's no coordinators? It's just two head coaches. No, two head coaches. It's like.

56:44 ↗

Taylor and Spags from the chiefs. Co-head coaches. I don't know. That'd be awkward locker room. Locker room. What is the phrase where it's like when you have too many? When you have two quarterbacks, you have none. Exactly. I think that would be the issue. You have two head coaches. You have none. But there are a lot of situations where you're like, you know, you want Zach Taylor's influence on the offense maybe. I don't know. Burrow lost season. It was a lost season for the Cincinnati Bengals. It was not lost for fantasy teams. No, it wasn't. We were having a great time with Joey B. Do we need their defense to be bad? It helps. We want their defense to be bad. That is for darn sure. Leading or tied on 69% of all of their place didn't make the playoffs. That is a shocking stat. The Bengals made the playoffs. The Bengals were.

57:40 ↗

I'm sorry, the Broncos. The Broncos made the playoffs. And they were, they were leading 44% of the time. That is, I mean, that's wild. That's almost like they had a better head coach than Sean Payton. Yeah, that's what we do. I mean, you got, what, 31 teams that need a new head coach after their failure of a season. One doesn't. And he seemed like he was going to get fired in the first quarter of the year. So, all right. We'll wrap it up. One more reminder. Head to ultimate draft kit.com. Order by March 1st.
