00:03 So it's what open head coaching job is the best and full disclosure,
00:07 I'm a commanders fan and I think that that division could be ripe.
00:11 So maybe don't sleep on that team.
00:14 But I think you've already answered this question of the open head coaching job
00:17 being the best is Atlanta and then you'd go down to San Diego.
00:20 So with your permission, we'll move on to the third question if that's okay.
00:23 Just give me a nod.
00:24 >> Well, again, you made the same mistake I did before,
00:27 which is every now and then we still say San Diego Chargers.
00:29 But the thing is this, the Charger job is so great because you have
00:33 the franchise quarterback and that's the hardest thing to get.
00:36 So I do think at the end of the day, that is the best long term job,
00:39 because you have Justin Herbert in place.
00:42 And I think, even though the Falcons are ready made,
00:44 you have to bring a quarterback into that situation.
00:46 And Bill Belichick could do what he used to do like back in Cleveland, right?
00:50 Or even Bill Parcells did with the Jets, which was ironically the same thing.
00:54 Vinny Testiverde, right?
00:55 Bring in some veteran quarterback, manage the offense.
00:59 I mean, Joe Flacco is gonna be looking for a job next year, I think.
01:02 And Joe Flacco is gonna get a job.
01:03 Or Jacoby Brissett, one of those kind of guys I think is a perfect fit for
01:07 Bill Belichick to go to Atlanta and just win right away.
01:10 And just be competitive right away.
01:12 But in terms of the long term, I think it's without a doubt the Chargers,
01:16 because Herbert's a guy that you could win with for ten years.
01:19 That's the difference.
01:21 Now, I would also say that before the New England Patriots made their decision,
01:26 that New England Patriots job is a very coveted job.
01:29 It's tough cuz you gotta live in the shadow of Bill Belichick.
01:33 But at the same time, you have an owner that is always committed to winning.
01:37 And Robert Kraft cares about winning.
01:39 Robert Kraft is, and look at his history of hiring coaches.
01:43 His history of hiring coaches is Bill Parcells, hall of famer.
01:48 Pete Carroll, hall of famer.
01:50 Bill Belichick, hall of famer.
01:52 So if you wanna work for a good organization,
01:54 since Robert Kraft took over the Patriots, they are the model organization in free
01:58 agency in this era of the NFL, whether you like it or not.
02:01 So that was probably the best job, but that job has been filled.
