00:00This is anthony who is listening in georgia. Hey anthony
00:04Hey, sir, how you doing? What's up?
00:07What's up, how y'all doing on the podcast? We're doing pretty pretty good. How y'all doing?
00:13I'm doing good, man. I'm at work. What's up?
00:17Okay, so my question is for everybody on the podcast would the patriots be interested in
00:24Aaron riley for the quarterback position with the with the hell no, would the patriots be interested in aaron rogers? Is that what you said?
00:31Yes, no, no, hell no. Is this a plant? I
00:37Sound like you're from georgia
00:39The pod on the podcast what part of georgia atl where you would know? Yeah, where are you in georgia? No
00:46milliville
00:47Okay, I went to uga
00:49So I know athens. Okay. Yeah
00:51So I went there and I lived in fayetteville
00:54Did you find us on the podcast? I'm like, oh yeah
00:57I was gonna ask because like did he just like randomly find us on the podcast and like spot us uh,
01:01Spotify or odyssey or something probably and that's why he just thinks we're a podcast. Yes
01:06Did you say villageville? No, I don't know. There's really no difference
01:09It's just like the form in which something is delivered like I know but it's just funny
01:13I've never heard this show be referred to as a podcast. Well, it is a right it is there
01:18There is a podcast there's podcast versions of the program but the show is the radio show but that's what it is
01:24It's a show but that's what a podcast is. Also. Sure. That's true
01:28I think it's a good sign because it's a podcast is like a younger listener. No, that's kind of why I was curious
01:32I was wondering if he found us in those methods because if so, I think that's great because he said millidgeville
01:37So, okay, like he might be listening, you know, and i'm like, all right
01:41I mean, it seems to me like aaron rogers may end up the quarterback for the steelers
01:45Yeah, I know the pats would know the
01:48No need to have the pats here because you have drake may and aaron rogers. I don't think he's going anywhere
01:54Where he's not having a legitimate opportunity to compete for a starting job
01:58Or maybe even be penciled in as the starter come week one, man. I would stay away from that
02:04I don't know why you'd want to invite that. No, thank you. Absolutely. It really is like a
02:10A cancer
02:12At this point in his life a locker room. What does he bring in? What is it besides the ayahuasca?
02:17What's he bringing to the table? Yeah, but mike tomlin like he's not gonna say anything to mike tomlin like if like he
02:24But I don't know I don't the whole the whole steeler situation is also interesting because like I love tomlin
02:32He might be my favorite coach in the league right now
02:35But that team is just stuck in purgatory because they are never going to bottom out
02:40So they're never going to get something in the draft and they are just going through these quarterbacks since rocklisberger
02:46That just keep them kind of slightly better than mediocre and they're never up or down
02:51They're just there in the playoffs not doing anything. But I think the question becomes with aaron rogers
02:57Is do teams look like all right? He was a year off of his achilles
03:03Does he have one more
03:07Kick at the can in him for him to be the aaron rogers
03:12That we've seen him to be that could be a veteran quarterback. You think he's washed
03:17That's but see that that and I think he's over it. I think he's he's over it
03:23Like don't you watch him and he looks disinterested, but then why wouldn't he just retire, right? I don't know
03:28I don't know. I don't think he is over it. I think I think he's he gets
03:32He gets very frustrated or he's one of them people that like kind of checks out
03:38When everything around them is bad like the organization the coaches have yeah the mark of a great leader
03:43Well, i'm not we're not discussing whether or not he's a great leader or anything like that
03:47But if the team around them is good if the coach is good if he respects the coach and likes the coach does he then?
03:54Stay focused and stay locked in and that's why I brought up vegas to be a good landing spot for him
04:02Well, if you buy the way the jets explained it
04:06You can say that he was more interested
04:10Or it was more important to him
04:12To be able to be on with pat mcafee than it was to keep his job and play for the jets, right?
04:19But I still wanted to do that. Huh? I don't even think that's true
04:22I think it was more so just a power play by the jets
04:24They're like you're gonna do what we say or you're gone and he's like no i'm not gonna do what you say
04:29I'm in charge here and they're like, okay. Bye
04:32Like i'm doing this on my day off on a tuesday with pat mcafee
04:37Who's my boy who pays me some money?
04:38This is a way for me, you know
04:40Even if it's not really about the money because I kind of agree with shy i'm like now you're telling me what I can't do
04:46On a tuesday on my day off. It's you know, and so they're probably using that as like
04:51Well, if you don't want to fall in line, we'll move on. This is tim from hanover. What's up tim?
04:57Guys great morning for you always. Oh, thank you
05:00Hey, I just want to say, um, mr. Hill. You are so right
05:05He's he's a cancer. But you know what? I used to love our aaron rogers
05:09I'd always thought he was a great quarterback, but let me tell you he's done now. He looks like he's throwing
05:15Baton practice and and I tell you what he's throwing ground balls everything. He's horrible
05:21He can't even get around on his feet no more
05:24Whoever picks him up is very very stupid just like they did with watson when they got watson to cleveland
05:30He was a nightmare and he wanted to be in that way. He never did nothing for him. He just brought him down
05:36but is he more like and i'm i'm asking this question because
05:42It is he more and I know russell wilson didn't have a great year
05:46But is he more of a change of scenery guy?
05:50Where you might go or or an organization goes
05:54he still
05:56Can be that type of quarterback that we're looking for because we don't have a guy right?
06:02He still has that in him
06:03We just he needs to be in the right and this is the perfect situation for him to be in
06:08And then you're that's why i'm if if you're going to the pittsburgh steelers and mike tomlin has been there for
06:1620 years now
06:18Yeah, like you're not gonna go down there and tell him what to do
06:21I don't care who you are or if you go play for brady in vegas
06:25You're probably not telling brady what to do
06:28Right if you're aaron rogers
06:30So I think that it becomes that question and and I know he's older and you know, he doesn't look the same
06:37But as an organization think that he especially an organization that might be kind of like right there
06:42Like pittsburgh is kind of like right there and they're just missing out on a quarterback
06:47I mean, it's kind of a waste of a sign though
06:49Like because you're not sure what he is and you're gonna have to give him but what else is out there
06:55Okay, but is he gonna do a deal? He's gonna want
06:58What do you think he's gonna want money-wise?
07:00Still have to pay him don't they so like he's not gonna require a ton. Yeah
07:04I don't know how I don't know how much of that was guaranteed money or whatever
07:07But like I look at it as would you rather pay sam darnold?
07:11Three years a hundred million guaranteed or would you rather sign aaron rogers to whatever contract he wants?
07:18I'd go with sam darnold. I would too. Absolutely, right, but uh, I guess the question is
07:24Is minnesota gonna let him go?
07:27Darnell. Yeah. Yeah, you think so? I do. I I I mean, I think that they're still high on j.j
07:34McCarthy and want to see that through and probably with the setup that they have there
07:40they feel like
07:41If maybe they're they're feeling like they can program any quarterback who they develop themselves
07:46Like they did with sam darnold and his redemption tour
07:49To at least get them to like the second round of the playoffs and they'll be good
07:53See because if you look at like sam donald's like the top three
07:57It's just gonna be so much cheaper to go to j.j
07:59McCarthy and you have one season that you saw of sam darnold, right?
08:03Because the thing you have to ask yourself and we're talking about with a guy like aaron rogers is all right
08:09Let's say sam donald's gonna is gonna run you somewhere to where the baker mayfield contract costs you and the pittsburgh steeles
08:15We're gonna have to guarantee this quarterback a hundred million dollars
08:19Let's say pittsburgh doesn't want to do that or maybe vegas is willing to do that
08:22Now if you're the pittsburgh steelers, you're still in the market for a quarterback
08:27But do you want justin fields as a free agent? You want russell? Wilson did that? Yeah, right
08:33I would rather justin fields than aaron rogers, but you already did that. Yeah, but you could bring him back
08:39Do you want mac jones? Do you want jimmy? I like these are the free agents. Jimmy garoppolo
08:43Marcus mariotta. Nah, excuse me. Jameis winston joe flacco. I might want james over aaron rogers
08:50So I james might go do media. That's true, too. He looked great on uh, super bowl media week
08:54So all i'm saying greg is that I think an organization is gonna look and they're gonna go
08:59All right
09:00If we hit on rogers for one year
09:03He's better than any of these potential free agents that are available
09:06Yeah, and does he have a little bit of left the gas left in the tank? It'll be interesting. It'll be very interesting
