[Assistant] 24, which was not a number they would likely handle for their salary cap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] While they could have restructured his contract prior to the start of the league year, just like they do every year, that would have blocked the team from being also able to trade him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Instead, the Saints proactively work with Latimer to adjust his contract so they can lower his salary cap charge like a restructure, but also maintain the ability to trade him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now the team did this by reducing its base salary to the league minimum and converting the rest of its salary to an option bonus that would prorate over five years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This will bring the charge up to about almost over 14 and a half mil.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As long as the trade occurs prior to the exercise of the option.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This follows a model that was first designed by who he believes was Philadelphia made notable by the Packers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Remain the same with salary at 18 and 18 and a half and 25 and 26 plus four years down, uh, for salary cap purposes, those phantom years. So then he gets into the portion, that's the money situation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it would also kind of break down as a minimum that the Sinks have to account for over 30 million in cap charges.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In this same article, what is the cost of acquiring


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Somebody to pick up Latimore's contract. There are a lot of teams that will really work to get more Sean Latimore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And into their team, if he's indeed available, would the saints be, would it surprise me if the saints traded Latimore?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Latimore wasn't happy with the direction of the New Orleans Saints team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This could definitely be something that is not out of the realm of possibility. Can I sit here and tell you guys that Latimore is not going to be traded and that this is just a rumor? I can't tell you that because some people, word on the street is some people and that's on the team have lost confidence in the direction of the Saints team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we knew that because we understood there was a split down the middle of the team, you know, in the realm of the team during the season. A lot of people didn't like how


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He reacted, uh, Dennis Allen reacted at the back end of the season or how he threw his team under the bus and all this kind of stuff. But see, that's the point where you have a bad head coach who does really foul stuff like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Any good head coach that's trying to win over his team would never have done that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And see when people start talking about the Latimore trade, they naturally look at Latimore and says, well, he's getting older. His contract kind of spiking coming up real soon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's best for us to try to get something for them and move on, maybe trade or, you know, trade them and get some picks or, or, you know, draft somebody. But I don't go in that direction. When you have a locked down cornerback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like Lattimore, who should not have left the team. I think Lattimore could have played up until


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, the next couple of years, you can at least fulfill this current contract with the New Orleans Saints and then let the chips fall where they may, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the reality is, it didn't play like that because a lot of players on the team lost faith in Dennis Allen. They really did. And like I said, we knew and we talked about it, uh, team players on the team not liking Dennis Allen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Players on the team not believing the Saints are headed in the right direction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They are players on that team and some of them are players.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That are good players that are core pieces of the team that have lost faith in Dennis Allen. They really have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this is all sponsored and controlled by Dennis Allen, because if you're a coach that don't win, you're going to lose some of your players. You're going to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even the players on the team. Now, Lattimore has a contract and you know, they restructured it, but he's locked in for the next couple of years. Is it possible for the Saints to get trade Lattimore? Absolutely.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If he doesn't, if he don't, if he doesn't, and I'm not saying he is one way or the other, but I'm saying that if players lose faith in a head coach, they're not going to want to play for the guy. Cause like I told you, a lot of these players play for coaches they believe in. If they don't believe in you, it's kind of like you're living a lie, like you're in a relationship and you, you, you hear, I go with that old girl talk.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, you with the old girl, and the old girl telling you, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That she love you, well, she only say, I love you when you tell her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She oughta tell you she love you when you tell her that. See, you got a provoker to it. She don't tell you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, on our own, that's what I'm trying to tell your ass. You know, you might have a problem there, player.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It might, there might not be a two way street there, baby. Baby, you might not be, you might not be on the same highway, baby.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's all I'm saying is man, sometimes, and it happens on sports teams as well, as they lose faith. They lose faith in the direction of the team. And a lot of the who that's out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They lo- they lost faith in the direction of the team. They really did, to be honest with you. They lost faith in the team. A lot of who that's out there did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why? Because they don't believe in a head coach and they have good reason to not believe in a head coach because he hadn't done anything. And like I said,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Saints have really taken a really weird, not a real weird, but a really...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, stern or brazen, I'm gonna say brazen stance. They're taking a real brazen stance in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Back in Dennis Allen, like he has no wrongs and, you know, this kind of stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Getting him whatever he wants and doing all this stuff. This making Loomis fool is out of his mind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But at the end of the day, we'll see if it all works by bringing some old Raider guys in here. Uh, you get the, your new coordinator, see what he can do. But it's all predicated on this, but listen, we don't sacrifice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, top notch cornerbacks in the game and Latimer was one of the best shut down cornerbacks in the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It'll be a shame if it happens, but I do understand if it does happen in the end. So whether it's the money or not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To a great degree of this, the saints are immune to a lot of the things that happen from a cap standpoint until they change the rules, bro.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, a lot of the stuff that we see with the black and gold.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In terms of the money situations and these contracts, cause I knew going into the season that you was going to lose somebody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Something was going to happen because some guys didn't like the direction of the team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They lost faith and once you lose, once a player lose faith in you, man, I'm not saying you can't get them back, but it gets to a point and Dennis Allen is not anybody and I'm not trying to disparage Dennis Allen because he does that well enough on his own.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's just not a, he's not a person that just forces you to believe in him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know he comes off as indecisive, he comes off as weak.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He comes off as pitling. He comes off as a meander. He, you know, he's a meanderer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, he, you know, when people ask some questions, he looks down and says, uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, uhm, it's not, it's like, no, it's not, none of it's confidence. None of, none of it's strong. None of it's direct. None of it's impactful. You know, it's all weird and, and,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Toxyturby up and down back ass energy that you don't want no part of. So they got guys that like them on the team, but they got guys that don't. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll see what, but I'm not surprised by this at all. We understood this going into the, this off season that we knew that there would be players that's on this team right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who would not want to be a part of this team for the upcoming year because they didn't believe in the leadership of where this team was headed. And like I said before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The saints operate like an old crooked mafia family. I've all, I've said that and I've said that numerous times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I say that because nobody checking nobody. Nobody ain't doing who's checking for who.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who's checking? Who's Gail checking for? She checking Dennis Lucia? No, ain't nobody checking nobody. Is Lucia the president of football operations? And I don't know if the dude knows football or not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But is he checking on Loomis, evaluating him? Nobody's evaluating anybody up there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the point of this whole ridiculous crap. Cause if they did, the moment you realize you pissed off a great deal of your supporter base, the owner should have came there and slapped that, slapped that Mickey Loomis ass down. Seriously.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because you don't, you never destroy, if there's a, if there's an issue with the supporter base, where is it coming from and why and what's going on there?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More than likely they're reacting to something negative that the team is doing. You cannot be that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Up in your ivory tower to the point where you don't see the people that put you there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You see, cause you can easily lose that support very fast. I'm telling you, it happens all the time. Anyway, shout out to the fam man. We up in this thing, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, that's the, and this is the situation. Like I said, it's not going to be a long drawing out situation about Marshawn Lattimore family because the reality is we've, we talked about this before. We knew there'd be players here and there. Now should they trade them? Absolutely not. They shouldn't trade, uh, trade Lattimore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the Saints are known to do some foolish stuff, especially under the stewardship of Dennis Allen. As a recent, a lot of these moves is because a lot of people lost faith in the team and it's going to happen. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They'll try to scurry around and right now currently the sinks are still about 17 million in the red. So they still got work to do to get.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Further down on the contract before the new league year kicks in and March 13 and all that starts to roll in around here. So they still got work to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Also, just some sidebar stuff, and we, this happened a few days ago about, uh, veteran offensive tackle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Ryan Ramczyk having minor knee surgery and should be ready for training camp. Now listen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm happy that Ryan Ramchak had his surgery, but he needs major surgery on that knee. This is a prolongment, man. See, and this is the type of stuff where...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, this is not putting your health ahead of the team because the reality is Ryan Ramczyk needs surgery, not minor, but he needs major surgery on that knee and he keeps prolonging it. He prolonged it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The year before by getting cortisone shots in it, and it didn't work anymore to the fact that he can barely walk on a damn thing. Now that's a minor situation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a prolongment. Just get the surgery. Get the major surgery you need and sit your ass out for a year. You got enough money. Have some sense with your life before you spend the rest of your life hobbling along.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it just upsets me man because there's no need to do this. We know the play to tackle position and listen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kubiak system forces these offensive linemen to move.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If he having issues moving, he will be a problem for the saints.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't have the stiff ass movements like stuff that we was doing this past year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This Kubiak system forces the saints to move and move a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we can't have all this other stuff happening with him. He's still young enough to go out and sit out a year, get the major knee surgery, go sit out for a year and heal up and then make a decision to come back. All this minor surgery and the shots and all that, that's not good, Ryan Ramchick. But in the end, it is your life and you'll do what you feel like you need to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I guess, uh, football is more important than him walking straight. Anyway, let's move on to this article right here, man. This is some of the dates that's headed forward.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In terms of the black and gold, we already went through the NFL combine and shot it. Listen, shout out to the man. Listen, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just think it was so many, if y'all watch the combine, man, there was a lot of really great moments in the combine, man, that we seen that was just absolutely ridiculous, man. You know, the, uh, the four to one time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Beating it at a 4-2-1, that is utterly ridiculous. I'm, I'm, are we going to see a 4-2-0 guy in the future?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From LSU that really raised his stock as he ran a 4, 3, 3, 6, 4 wide receiver.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pull up the collet, tow up the country with statistics.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Touchdowns and receptions, and then he put the 4-3-3, 6-4, that should help his stock too. Cause a lot of people been slipping on that brother. We can talk about Mr. Neighbors, but in the end man, Brian Thomas Jr.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a guy that most people gotta keep their, their eyes on, man. And, uh, hopefully he don't end up in the.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If we don't draft him, hopefully he don't end up in the NFC South, but you know how that is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is all, all those guys always seem to end up where we are, but anyway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In FL Combine, uh, situation, you can look past that, but then the next several dates, March the 5th, you take a look at that date, uh, that's actually tomorrow, uh, is you'll have the deadline for


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] March the 6th, we got various pro days going on from March the 6th on down. Northwestern, Purdue, Oregon, Georgia, looking out for those and then of course March the 11th.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Clubs are permitted to contact and enter contract negotiations with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Certified agents of players who become unrestricted, restricted free agents upon the expiration of their 2022, 2023 player contracts at 4 PM Eastern time on March the 13th. So there you go with that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And of course, March 13th is the league year, the 2024 league year, and the free agency period begins at 4pm. Simultaneously, the trade period for 2024 begins after the expiration.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of all 2023 contracts. So there you go. And of course more pro days there. So shout out to the Saints News Network for giving us a scoop on that. Iowa, Army, Alabama, Notre Dame, Michigan. You got to meet the owner meetings.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coming up in mid March, or late March rather, and then LSU and Ole Miss Pro Days followed by the Big 12 Pro Day Maryland, and then of course the UFL season kicks off late March, and summer football is here again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's some of the dates for the family members headed forward until the rest of the year. And of course we understood and know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That the black and gold is facing some, some, uh, some, some stuff that they have to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And let's kind of share this. You can see right now that's currently according to over the cap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The old contracts left to be negotiated upon, several contracts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People anticipating some NFL capologists believe the Saints.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, eventually several contracts get this back into the black and then proceed to get.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] North of 20 million between 15, I've heard anywhere between 18 to $25 million in cap money to go into the 24.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Free agency, period. Now, will they be players in free agency? When the way Mickey Lumis and his guys he trained work, they can pretty sure be able to work some type of magic to be able to get a player or two, uh, to help out protect, you know, perhaps a left tackle. Wouldn't that be?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cool to get that, but of course the Ryan Ram check, minor surgery stuff kind of puts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A light on him saying that he'll be ready for camp. I would still, however, if I was the Saints, I would still have insurance for Ryan Ramcheck. Uhm, really, for real.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, we'll see how that all works in the end, man. So shout out to the fam, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, let me hit the comment section right here. If y'all got any questions, throw them in there fam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like I said, I wasn't going to do a long stream. I just wanted to touch on this Lattimore thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That the New Orleans Saints, the way they've been acting over the last three years, uhm, we've had three years, the Saints are


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We kinda look at the future, we're too busy looking forward to look back. But from a historical standpoint, the Saints have lost three years in a row. They had three non-playoff years of the Saints. So we're in a bit of a little gloomy situation right here because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're looking at them being at the cusp of it, trying to get him like, well, we just needed one game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To make it end, but they didn't get what they needed to get and they had it. So it's weird. We're in a weird little non-playoff drought situation that's going on right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the, and what's really kind of strange about it is that the leadership over the team right now, there's, is there leadership? I'll just ask him the question.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If their leadership, because as a general manager, and I've often said you don't have a general manager, you got a general mismanager.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because any general manager that understands his team would not let the coach to have the team up to the point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where players who are really good players, top five in their positions want to be traded or want to be moved off the team or lost faith in the direction of the team. And then you blindly and stupidly back him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, and don't look any other way. And also a general mismanager who doesn't engage with these people. So even if you had, if you had a good relationship with some of these players where you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, or engage with them. You want to know what's going on with them, how your family is, you know what I'm saying? Just think, oh, a good general manager that keeps a pulse of his team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, the guys, you know, the core guys, the, the, the really, the top players on your team, usually a good miss, a good general manager.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll keep a pulse on those guys. You might not talk to everybody, but a Cam, I'mma talk to Cam. A Lattimore, I'mma talk to Lattimore. A, you know, my quarterback, my, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, Elvin, my wife, my star wide receivers, you know, whatever my top guys, the top guys on the team, you're going to talk to them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And perhaps if you had some pull one way or the other, you can kind of get them to buy back in to what you got going on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You see what I'm saying? But this is simply not the case. We got people here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who to me, and it's just my estimation. I've been doing this for a, for a while. I just, from what I'm seeing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the Saints over the last couple of years under the Dennis Allen administration.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just don't see any differing in opinions. Like I see just one big dumbass, uh, a mind going in one direction, uh, hook a crook.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ride or die, either one way we gon' go it, you know, we gon' beat it into submission. That type of mentality.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'm like nah, you, you have to have some type of different vantage point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause you know, over, you're supposed to have, as the general manager, you're supposed to have a better vantage or view of what's going on with the team so that you, if you get a coach and you happen to make a mistake, because listen, he don't think he made no mistake with Dennis Allen. You think he did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you can see with two 9-plus years that obviously this is a mistake because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't need to build up to anything. The saints had everything the last couple of years to be successful. They just mismanaged the hell out of it. So where is the...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's how you know it's some bull crap. It's a cult thinking in the saints organization. Like we're doing the right things. You're not doing the right things.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And not only, they have a cult mentality, like a Jim Jones football cult crap going on. I don't know what's going on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which you're supposed to have a difference in opinions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're supposed to have people that say, listen, I don't think you want to do that. You know, we need to make this work. We need to do that, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it just, there's just one big long Kool-Aid trip.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They going right to the, to the poison Kool-Aid. That's what's going on with the Saints.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like they, they, they, this dude hold, hold a hundred percent. I got the right guy. This guy, this thing, hi, I'm telling you, he's the one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And people saying, bro, no, he's not. He's not the one. He hadn't done anything. Wow. Listen, we were seven and 10 because of him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, we went from seven and ten to nine and uh, no, no, you should have been, you should have been a pull-off team at first year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the second year, you should have been a playoff team under Dennis Allen. What happened?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want injuries and then they start doing all that stuff. See, I can't, I'm not going to play the games, man. It's too late in, in, in time right now for me to do all that. All I do is just call it out, man. And hopefully I get enough people to ride with me and just stop buying the tickets. So this the only way to break it. Economic boycotts work. We've done this throughout time. They work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is the best way and this is what we have to come to because these people are doing this stuff and they're not bearing any results and they just wasting time. So when he screwed it up last season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he come out and says, I'm pissed off. Dennis Allen did. I'm pissed off how the season ended. And I just paused and I said to myself, are you kidding me? You pissed off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You sit up there and watch the week after week in practice while lying about having hall of fame practices. What was that at? That's what I start getting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know why? Cause I was saying that and you were with me and we were saying that stuff the entire season while we was watching. And then after the end of the year, they validated. So in the end, I...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have a cautious, I'm not, I'm optimistic in terms of I know that I'm optimistic about the truth. Let me just put it to you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The truth and the saints, that's two different things right now, but I'm optimistic about the truth because the truth will show you what type of team you got after the end of this current year that's coming. So I'm not fooled by what they do in the off season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not fooled by none of this, but the leadership is supposed to see players at a higher level.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like if you see Latimore as an asset for the future and he's more valuable than a Dennis Allen, I would think that you would want to type or work with him and try to get him to state.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And work with him so that you can compete because you're going to need defense for where you're going.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There is no this occult thinking in that goddamn building and then nobody challenging each other at the highest level. Gail just cutting checks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, and going to the bank and checking our banking app to make sure the money there, uh, the, the.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lucia guy is the businessman. I don't know if he knows football.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mickey Lomas is doing whatever he wants to do and telling, I'm going,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That type of crap. And I, I, it's so old. It's as long as the money flowing, you know, everything else be damned.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Playoff trips, everything. Of course we want to go to the play. You're not serious. Go ahead and play off trips. If you got Dennis Allen running your team, I'm sorry, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, quick questions from the fam man before I jump out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, uh, Joanne, what's up fam? Says, uh, Lattimore is too great to let walk away from nothing. He's once in a lifetime of generational talent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's nothing new fam, the Saints have let that happen before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, we in their history, and this is prior to make it Loomis, when you go back in their history, you talk about greats like Ricky Jackson, they let him go to the Niners. He won a Super Bowl the next year. They let Pats Willen go. They let Sam Mills go. He went to Carolina and had a second career. They let Vaughn Johnson go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They let guys, they let these, they let Leroy Glover go. Those guys, those are the type of guys that's supposed to be signed forever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they let these guys walk out the building. Bobby Abel really didn't want to go anywhere. He wanted to get paid. He had a good year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they said no, and he went to Atlanta and killed him every chance he got. He'll tell you that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He said, I went to Atlanta because I wanted to play against the Saints and I was an assassin. And every time I played him, I wanted to kill him. I wanted to beat him. And he did too. Not only him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Jake Del Ome did the same damn thing. Jake Del Ome went there and he made it on his mind. Every time he played the sayings, Jake Del Ome wanted to beat the saints in the ground. You see?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I mean, they, they do that when they, they get these, you know, the great players and they're supposed to retire as players and they say, nope, you're going to go in a different direction. And they offer them some pittlin' money and they don't care about none of that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I mean, I'm not, you know, I'm not really surprised by the Lattimore thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because the reality, if you think about it, if Vladimir is, if he lost respect for the team or if he don't believe in the team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it'll be held to keep the man here if he wants to go. And I'm not saying that's the case or not, but you come on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What else could it be? I heard some rumors about him having some issue with the doctor. Come on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If, if Lattimore wants to leave, it's going to be because he lost faith in the coach, in the direction of the Saints who haven't done anything in three years. And now, uhm, you know, it's, they're not showing anything. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whatever. James says, Q, I think we should let, we should keep Lattimore. He's, he's super talented. It's hard to find a great corner that elevates the whole defense. I'm saying that the only thing he says, I'm saying the same only if laddy wants to leave because of the Luma's direction. Yeah, James, you're right, bro. Shout out to you, bro.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's, what else could it be found? Seriously. Y'all tell me in the check.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What else could it be? Why would Lattimore love the saints? The saints drafted him. He's been a star here. Why else would the saints want to trade Lattimore?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why would they, why else would they want to trade them? Would it be about money? No, it was not about money. What else would it be? Y'all tell me in the chat. Why else would he want to leave or.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why else would rumors be circulated? Nah, it could be very well just rumors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, where there's smoke, there's fire, right? 504 Coast SQ, if we cut RAM, how much dead money would we eat? Can we save some money maybe? I don't know the particulars on his deal or how much money would they, would they, what they'll do if they cut RAM. I don't think, see the thing is too with RAM and it's unfortunate, but RAM got hurt, you know, that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That, that, you know, that, that year when he signed that big contract, I know he started having those issues. And I often, I talked about it on the show, it's like, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We did not realize how bad Ram, me in particular.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Didn't realize how bad Ramchak, I knew Ramchak was having knee issues. I knew he was having re-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I did not realize to the length of how bad the knee was to the point where it was threatening his playing career. Didn't realize that. But once I realized that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This came to my mind, I said, that's why they didn't want to move him to the left tackle position because he'd have been fully exposed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like why else would they keep Ram on the right side? What's going on there? Think about it. Think about it. Ram making all this money, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He, you know, that guy's supposed to be your left tackle, but if that knee is like that, he would be fully exposed. And he didn't look that great at the right tackle position. At some point, and I know they love ramps, somebody got to step up and shut this shit down, man. I mean, because the players, the players are going to want to play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Need to step up and say, nah, bro, we're going to shut you down, man. We can't let you do that because I think we know, see, listen, the saints know the medicals. They have the doctor reports and the medicals on what's going on with ram check and that knee. They know what time it is. We're not, they're not guessing at it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They know exactly what's going on with that knee. They know how long it's going to take. They know what he needs to do to get it corrected.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They know they got the medical information cause the doctors did their MRI's all it. They have all of that in hand. So they know exactly what it will take to get him fully healthy. And I just, I think this is one of these situations where.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A player's safety should reign supreme and you, he don't, obviously he don't know no better for his own sake.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That if the team really gave a damn about him, they wouldn't let him be ready for no training camp. I would, I would really say, listen, bro, we're going to need you to go ahead on and take care of that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And when you get through with that, we'll have a spot here. We're not going to cut you. You'll be here. You know, we're going to have to take some of that money down, but in the end, this is what it is. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That would explain to me a lot about why Ram wasn't shifted to that left tackle position. They were trying to protect him. I thought about that, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, yes indeed. Yeaah, he ran a 4-3-3 bro. He did, man. He did. Here it is right here. Let me put it up here. Look at that. There he is right there. There it is right there. Brian Thomas, man. This dude right here, and a lot of, they talk about Malik Navy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 433, he's 6'4 and boy, I knew he had some speed. I just didn't realize he was that fast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I didn't realize he was that fast, but yeah, shout out to Brian Thomas, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, so anyway, Brother James says, Q, I was thinking of where we would be if they actually drafted a young gun at QB two to three years ago. The castways would have to get and invest in top players at the key position with a mobile QB. Yes, indeed, bro. We talked about that a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had opportunities along the years. Michael Lomas comes out and said he had a plan after Drew Brees. They did not have a plan for Drew Brees. The plan was to wait to see what Drew Brees is going to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the last year, Drew Brees' last year, uh, he was here. Tom Brady was actually waiting for him to what the Saints was going to do with Drew.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he opted to come back. I had the saints had a bit because they knew we know like, why are we waiting for Drew Brees? Drew Brees don't have nothing else to give you, man. You don't have anything else to give you. You make the decision. Thank Drew.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, eventually down the line, you give them a statue, you appreciate them for their service, you keep it moving. They had no vision.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause your general manager is Mickey Loomis. All he knows to do is to keep sticking to the past. He a dinosaur. You know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jack says, uh, this draft seems like a deep draft might be a good idea to draft back and even.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well yeaah, in terms that brother James was saying about the mobile QB man, we had Lamar Jackson there. They moved, remember fam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We could talk about Patrick, my homeboys. We could talk about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the kid from Clemson that's with the Browns, not Deshaun Watson. We could talk about a lot of these quarterbacks, but the reality is the one that you really let get away that you want to talk about, and I mean really let get away was Lamar Jackson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Saints moved up in the draft to go, uh, in the back of the first, what was it, the 17 pick? They moved up or something like that. I forget. It was a while ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He gets up there and then a lot of people thought the saints moved there to go and get Lamar Jackson. I, when I was doing the draft coverage said, man, the saints about to get Lamar Jackson. Everybody knew.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coming out of college that Lamar Jackson was going to be a star. He was tearing it up. And what was he at Louisville? Y'all remind me in the chat. I want to say he was in Louisville. Uh, one of those college, but I knew he was tearing it up, man. But when he came out of college.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, he made it in that draft. I said, y'all got to get this kid because this kid is going to be awesome. And the saints moved up to the spot. I think it was 17 or somewhere around that. And num dogs picked Marcus Davenport. They picked Marcus and I was like, who?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Marcus Davenport, 6'7", out of the, uh, not, wasn't UTEP, it was, uh, the Roadrunners. I don't even remember the name. The University of Texas, University of Texas at San Antonio, that's who they are. The Roadrunners. I was like, who?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This dude was hurt. He had a thumb, uh, uh, something wrong with his hands at the time. He had a thumb issue and he has surgery on the next day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When they drafted that dude and that was a bad omen. I remember hearing that and I said, man, that ain't, that's a bad omen. That you draft this guy and then the next day after you draft him, he has surgery on his thumb or something like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then ever since then he been, he was an unmitigated bus for the saints. He ain't, when he went up to Minnesota recently, he ain't do a damn thing. They passed up on Jackson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For Davenport, man, are you kidding me? That's your New Orleans Saints.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It had an opportunity to change the direction of the team several times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And elected to try to hold on to an old past that didn't exist no more. That old girl don't want you no more. Now I go with that old girl. She don't want you no more, man. Move on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, they got plenty of new old girls out there. You get what I'm talking about? I'll let Reverend Saint spit at you, man. He gonna tell you the truth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All right, Brother Keljer says, keep Latimer because he's the best cornerback in Saints history. We won't get the right compensation. Saints letting all the defensive stars leave except for Cam and Demario shaking my head. Yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, uhm, like I said, is it a far gone conclusion? Cause this could be Lattimore. Is this Lattimore pushing this out here? Is Lattimore tired of the Saints? I ain't gonna lie to you, I'm tired of the Saints. I ain't nowhere around them. Lattimore seen them all day. You know, it's got to be something, man. Like I said, I don't know fam, but how does, you know, how,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm upset and disgusted are they are. I am, I'm thoroughly disgusted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With Mickey Loomis and Dennis Allen. I ran, I'm tired of that tandem. I really am.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm thoroughly disgusted with Mickey Lomas. This whole year, with all of the elitist, garb


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every, oh, I am thoroughly disgusted with them. With those people. I really am, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Letting them, pissing off this player, that player to the point where it's possible to guide them out and they won't even be here anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're not supposed to let a coach do that where you start losing assets. And then when you eventually fire him, you got to build the team back up over again. And what happened to the window of opportunity? We supposed to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fighting for right now. You got an older team. Their window is to win right now and you going to start losing people because.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They don't have faith in the direction of the team because ain't no direction. What we doing? You know, I don't want to be, you know, that guy. I got to tell the truth, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For real, yeaah, this, this, what if it's laddy daddy? Y'all tell me, what do you think?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gundham says Dennis Allen is too stubborn to change. He's now stressing with all these superficial moves, thinking the change is on the horizon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You fired Pete Carmichael, we knew that was coming. You had to sacrifice Pete Carmichael.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You sacrifice most of the offensive guys on that side of the ball. Like it was all the offense fault.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why the team didn't excel. I mean, and maybe if you're quarterback, maybe, and listen, Carmichael did a shitty job with Derek Card. I'm going to just be honest with you. This isn't really supposed to be a QB friendly system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Carmichael didn't hold Carr accountable. He didn't. You cannot do that. You got to hold these guys accountable. You can't let him go in there with bad habits and stare down half the field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And don't then check him and tell him you can't stare down half the damn field. You gotta look over the whole field. I'm surprised I have to tell a 10 year veteran quarterback to look over the whole field before you deliver the ball out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See all of your options before you throw the ball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This guy been in the league for going on 11 years now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you don't have to tell that to rookie quarterbacks coming in the NFL. They know to span the field before they deliver the ball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To look at all options before you get rid of the ball. Seriously, they got younger. The guy from Tulane, Michael Pratt, gonna be a really good pro. He did that. Jaden Daniels, the guy from LSU.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what he did. He spanned the field before he delivered the ball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in most cases when Jayden didn't see something like he took the hell off. So somebody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Clint Kubiak has to stop him from doing that. You can't repeat this mistakes of Pete Carmichael. You can't do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You got to make the guy do his job correctly. And if he can't do that, you might need to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you're right, Dennis Allen is stubborn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But he's ignorant too. This is another part of the game that I don't like about Dennis Allen. He's not trying to improve as a head coach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They are trying to spin it like we just need talent. We need more talent. That's the problem. The problem is we need more talent and more talent and talent here. We need talent on defense. We need talent on offense. We need more talent on, but that's what they're trying to see. See, and that's not totally true.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's more than just talent on the field. You need more talent as a head coach to know what to do with this, to do with all of the talent, to make sure everything goes the way it's supposed to. How is he improving as a head coach? That's the answer. How is he improving as a head coach?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not asking him, but people say he's a good defensive coordinator. Q, I don't want to hear about that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't care about that. We got a defensive coordinator named Joe Woods.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We talking about as a head coach, how does, how did, or did he improve as a head coach?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, he must have improved some kind of way in QB19 games. Never done that before. That don't mean that. That means that he had a very talented team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That should have been a playoff team. They won nine games and a weak NFC South with a weak ass schedule. They had a very soft schedule this year. And if you couldn't get nine wins out of that, you are pathetic, sir. So, I mean, the situation was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Climbed for him to have these wins and that's the best he can do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But in the end, like I said, how did he get any better? That's my whole point because he is the answer. Dennis Allen is the answer to all of this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How did he, did he improve as a, as a, as a coach? That's what it comes down to. What books does he read to improve as a head coach?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What, uh, is he going in any specialized training? He ain't doing none of that, man. You know it and I know it. So in the end, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] K-Man said they shook up the offensive staff, brought in another draft consultant. Let's see what they do. They always do well fam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, in the off season, the pro, like I said, I say this every year, man, almost like a freaking ground hall day up in here, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you flip the switch from off to on then they have some kind of problem making the talent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Work on the field consistently. That's the problem where, that's where the issues really kind of strive it. Chip said, I remember living there in a bear lift because I don't know what you're talking about. Jack, what's up? Jack says, bro, uh, yeah, he says, I think clear the problem quicker. I don't know. The thing is, like I said, if this is a lat, latty daddy thing, what you gonna do? If he lost confidence in Dennis Allen, you know, what you gonna do? It happens fam. You got to win. You got to win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Darwin says Allen replacement already in the building with Kubiak.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, Derrick, what's up, brother Hennessy? He says, trading him so dumb, a Deebo, Taylor, good players now, but Lattimore is great. And if they, in D.A. figure, they, he said those games that they did okay. Like I said,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I would not be the one to trade them, but like I said, the Saints don't make the best decisions, fam. They should keep them, but in the end.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it might be too much damage to re-do, to be kicked out. What's up, Brent? Says, while my own bank account is needed to change, ain't no way I'll focus on these bills. It's kind of justice. Yes, indeed, man. Yes, indeed. All right. Shout out to you, Brent. I, Father Foucault, say Saints need so much linebacker, defensive tackle, left tackle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He says linebacker, defensive tackle, left tackle, right tackle, left guard, right guard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We need a left guard and a right guard and safety. We need a life fam. Uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Linebacker, you can use some depth behind the Mario Davis. Ain't no doubt about that, fam. But, uhm, I don't know if, you know, I know you don't have this as the order, but defensive tackle, you can use some depth there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can use some depth there. Yeah, you can use, you can use depth at all those positions. You really don't have a left tackle right now. Ryan Ramchow, we don't know exactly how he's going to react, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, safety with Marcus, uh, may getting shipped out of here. Safety could be something you address in the draft. And it also depends on what, how much money this thing's got, but then again, maybe it don't. You know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Darrell, I know, I know you've been there, man. Louisville, that, yeah, yeah. I kind of remember, man. It'd been a while, but yeah, that's what it is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like I said fam, I don't agree, agree about it, but I understand if it happens though. Hemisphecy isn't just like the things they get good players end up trading or let go, but they...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Want to sell the fact that they have a shot at winning the division to only lose a game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's up, Slim says, well, all we know is it didn't sound like to throw people under the bus. We do know that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How many players seen Dennis Allen do that to his offensive unit? How many players seen him do it? And remember, nobody would have known nothing about that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unless maybe down the line when the season was over with, it wouldn't had the same impact.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's not just, it was all hard because not only like what Q they didn't listen to the head coach. That just goes to show you they don't respect the head coach. How many head coaches you heard, even Kim Mulkey, who's the LSU women's basketball coach said, that's intolerable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That you've lost it, you know, she was like, nope, that never happened to her where, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That type of situation, coach tell you to go out there and kneel on it and they run and play for their guy. Man, you can't tell me that that's and Mickey Loomis downplays it because he's an idiot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You don't realize that if a coach tells you to go out there and kneel on the ball and the team runs a play, despite that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you know, that, that's a whole nother level of, man, screw this guy. He already, cause basically it, it played out like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coach said, uh, they asked coach, coach, we trying to get Jamal his first touchdown on the year. You don't have one. It's the last play of the season. Can we get Jamal list? No, no, no, no, no. Just nail on it. We ran up to score enough. Just nail on it. Let's just get out of here with a dub. Okay. And then James turns to him, listen guys, uh, coach Allen says, no, that's we got to nail on it. Uh, and just go into the season, which I won't do. Nah, what the hell with that? We don't give Jamal Williams. And then they do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Get the touchdown, right? So what Dennis Allen does, he gets his panties in a bunch. So what he ends up doing is, he goes, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He goes up and gets cursed out by the, the, the author Smith. Curses him out, right? Curses him out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dennis Allen has no balls, he has no mat, he has, he's not, he has nothing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gets cussed out, sittin', he lets Arthur Smith cuss him out, right? Ain't no man gonna stand up there walkin' at me abruptly, cussin' at me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, I the one ran the play. I would have just had my team back. I was like, listen here, do something about it. What you gonna do?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do something about it. Your job is to stop me. We ran it. Yeah. What you gonna do about it? Darian Rizzi was talking crap back to him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That, that weak ass coach of yours, he, I understand. And then he walks to the podium and apologizes to the Falcons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then throws his team, proceeds to throw his team under the bus. They did that on their own. I didn't, I didn't tell them to do that. We would have not known that about the Saints side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Dennis Allen wouldn't throw them all up under the bus, let me tell you something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They have players that seen that and they lost respect for them because you're not supposed to do that. All you have is a team. All you have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is your respect and trust of the players around you. That's all you have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're paying them to be there, but in the end, the concepts have to be way more than just the money. They're all, majority of them are millionaires already. So what's the motivation to win if you're making all of this money? We have to be galvanized in thought.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And a vision, a shared vision to beat these other teams and get to the next level.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How am I supposed to stand in a room and look at this dude in his face and believe in what he's talking about? And I just witnessed him throw my offensive unit under the bus like he did and apologize to my most hated rival. Don't make any sense, but he did that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And when I say I go back in that little brief history lessons, just to remind you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That there's re- whether they want to tell you this or not, there are repercussions for that sort of behavior.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well Q, they didn't listen to the coach granted, but the coach wasn't supposed to throw them under the bus. One bad turn does not deserve another bad turn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As a head coach, he's supposed to know better. He was supposed to take it up a level. If they didn't listen to him, he was supposed to get with them in the locker room and chastise them for that in the privacy of their own building. What happened about keeping it in the building?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What happened about keeping it and what we gonna keep that in house?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why wasn't that happening now? So you know why? Cause he got emotional.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And wanted to throw them on the bus because he didn't want to bear the responsibility of that. Sad. Like I said, don't think for a second that that stuff doesn't have an impact on that team fam, because it does. It does.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It has an impact, regardless of what Mickey Loma's talking about. I'm telling you, it has an impact on the team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there are players that lost respect for Dennis Allen. I lost respect for Dennis Allen. You lost respect for Dennis Allen. I'm never going to forget that. What he did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And real coaches and good coaches, they don't do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They don't do that type of backstabby.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Underhanded, shiftless, ballist, trader type stuff that he does. You know, it just, it just doesn't, it just not, it don't, it don't sit well. Man, all the stuff you can say about some of these guys that got fired in the NFL, you can never say they threw their own team under the bus.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then apologize to their worst rival. That has an impact. I'm telling y'all it does. All right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of stuff, man. Tony says we need a leader in the coach, in a coach, not a follower as a coach. And he does give me follower vibes. Like I said, I'm just looking at him at these press conferences with his head down, um, and nothing even going on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it's like even if it's a regular press conference, if you hold one right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like, it's like, ask some questions about the direction of the team. It's not the direction is like, what's the direction team? We're trying to make the playoffs. How are you going to make the playoffs? How are you going to do it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You gonna give up some of your defensive play calling abilities and act more as an overseer of the team? No. I'm still gonna call the plays.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm just gonna let the other guy handle all the offensive stuff over there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It could work, but the guy has certain things that he lacks. And I've said that, and I'm gonna stick to it. Really do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Didn't blame everybody else. Yeah, we, we seen that. We seen that before. And he tells, he set up there and said, I'll tell the truth. I was like, bro, you do not tell the truth. You lie all the time. You lie all the time. You were lying about having the answers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the answers was in the building and no, there wasn't the next week they lost. So it's just.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Travis says, uh, no, we paid and recruited a damn beetle. Dana says, uh, they have an eighth pick, no chance of it. What's up? Uh, Jay Ray says, Will Cam Jordan?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, he says, Will Cam Jordan did subliminally say, as long as we keep the same leadership, nothing's going to change. And maybe that was a shot at DA. Indeed, bro. Uh, indeed. True.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The leadership aspect of the Saints team and Cam talked about, you know, and alluded to it. Michael, and listen fam, all of these people, uh, they're like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Core people are your team and they're acting out. Like we heard Elvin hit at, Elvin Kamara talked about it. He hit at some stuff last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you listen to them, they gon' say, they gon' tell you just enough and then it's not even really cryptic most of the time. They'll tell you. You just have to have the ears to listen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And like we seen, uh, Michael Thomas, like Michael Thomas on social media is tweeting at Derek Carr and Derek Carr saying, you know, this, that, and the third. And I'm saying to myself, Michael Thomas brung, you know, was advocating for Carr to get here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then when Carl gets here and throws the ball all over the field and nobody except for me and y'all out here saying, Hey bro.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nothing wrong with him. And like I said, the whole rib thing, they want to admit it later in the year, like a week before the season end. They want to talk about the rib issue. They played him with broken ribs, they say for the entire season fam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They did that whole little song and dance and then when the year ended, it was all about him being hung up and him being hurt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they credited him for playing while he was injured, while the saints admitted to him not being injured. The whole, they just played these period ass propaganda games. I mean, not even like college level propaganda. It's like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Free school level propaganda because it's just like a straight up switch. Like you're not even supposed to have a memory to understand and remember. It's like, hold on, hold on, bro.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You didn't start talking about injuries with this dude in terms of his ribs until like a week or so before the season ended. The whole year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On this show, we were saying, man, what's up with this? What's going on?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They denied it and said that nothing was wrong with him. He was fine. He just had some, you know, some, you know, a shoulder issue and all that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this fool come out and say he had three broken ribs and I tore the heck out of my shoulder and all that. I was like, what? Now you want to use it? Cause they lost.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is the same shit over and over again. That's what I'm saying, man. But Cam Jordan just keeping it real.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His time is running out here. You understand he got two years left on the contract.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Mario Davis got two years left on his contract. And guess what? Some of our better players, including Elvin Kamara, these guys got like a two year window remaining.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before a contract is over with and you gotta reset some of the talent from the team and they wasting the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The last two, three years have been, they done wasted some of the more valuable years of these older players. That's a problem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Back and the offense ends up carrying the team. Do you think Kubiak will be the next?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey coach, I don't, I don't know if he'll be the next head coach bro, but I do think the offense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Should take the step up. The team should be led by its offense. It's too much money invested in the Saints offense for it to be in the state of what it is. Even if you look at right here, what I got currently on screen fam, look at this is sports. I mean, I'm over the cap numbers as you can see right here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It telling you the amount of dollars that's designated to the saints offense over 158.4 million.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To the offense while 13.2 for the defense. So that's going to show you, and that's the perfect segue to show you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That where the money is, that's supposed to be where the team is led by because that's the measurement.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's a lot of pressure on Clint Kubiak, who very well could be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, a young coach and I wouldn't be mad at Clint Kubiak if he would be, uh, the Saints head coach. I wouldn't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because I know that he has a seriousness about him. I know that he has an attention to detail. I know that he's a guy that will get that offense in shape.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's like, you're handcuffing them to a great degree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because he has to do that with Derek Carr. Now if he can pick his own quarterback, you can have a lot of success, you know what I mean? I just don't think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're handicapping them with Derek Carr, like you're tying them to Derek Carr.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I don't know how Carr will do in this type of system. I know his brother, David Carr, who has familiarity with this type of system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I really don't want to bring him up because he got killed in the Texans offense because they couldn't protect them. So I don't, I don't know if that's a bad example to use.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But by all means, it's supposed to be the offense, man, leading the team, bro. You know, by them putting all that money into it and the biggest position is the quarterback. This guy getting $150 million, he's supposed to be the so-called leader of the team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I wouldn't be mad if, if they did fire Dennis Allen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, if the team underperformed, I wouldn't be mad if Clint Kubiak would be the guy that step in at least we know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That he will be able to kind of direct and this team will have somebody, a young, uh, potential coach with a good pedigree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, who are from an offensive standpoint that could take the offense into, uh, or the team into the, to the future. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wouldn't be mad at that, man. But then again, where's, where's Gruden's going to be? Gruden's time is, his court date comes in July. I think the Saints are holding one of those assistants, that, that senior assistant spot for John Gruden. So if they fired Dennis Allen, does Gruden getting there?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because Dennis, uh, Dennis Allen always let Derek Carr have his way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All right, Kovaita said you trade Latimore, you look dumb and the Ram showed you what the Saint secondary looks like without Latimore indeed. All right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] J-Ray says, love the idea of offensive move, but we definitely need to silafado. Indeed. Absolutely.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Offensive line, to me and I've said this before, is the biggest need for the black and gold.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The offensive line is the biggest need. I know people saying Cuba need to replace Michael Thomas. He's going to be gone. Uhm, I hear you on that, but listen, there is no offense without an offensive line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You don't have a left tackle currently. You got an old ass left guard that needs to be replaced.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your right tackle had minor knee surgery, which he's supposed to have major knee surgery. So we don't know what are you going to look like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would hope that he kind of gets some semblance of what he used to look like, but it's just, you kind of put in a...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A bandaid on a stab wound, man. Dude, you supposed to have major surgery? You had minor surgery? Why? What are you doing? What the hell is going on in there? Dana says they would have to sell the whole draft this year and next year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And a top player also, they need a QB. Yeah, yeah, and I've seen, we talked about them, uh, well actually I mentioned them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A talented quarterback, but he ain't on no Jaden Daniels level. These people need to cut that out, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They need to cut that out, man. I done watched that kid film.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I watched his film and I watched Jaden Daniels film and Jaden Daniels is better than that guy. I'm sorry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he put in, and Jayden Daniels dominated in a better football conference. He put up numbers and in some games it was because of him, the LSU Tigers won.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There were games where Jayden threw for 400 yards and ran for 200 yards. You know, it was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's his skill is unbelievable. He's the fastest guy on the field and not only, you know, he's a slender guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But he's durable. He took some, he took some hellified hits from Alabama and other players.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was, he's, he's tough as nails. He stood in there. He got a great temperament and you know, he's super uber productive. So, you know, like I said, he's better. You could, they could play around all they want and talk about this May guy as a quarterback. Listen, the guy's a good quarterback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I got several other quarterbacks that's better than him, man. I'm sorry I do. I think Michael Penex is better than him. And the reason why Penex is not getting that love because he got an injury history, but he's super productive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, there are other guys that you, even to a degree, I would say McCarthy from Michigan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is, is, is it got a higher ceiling than the main character? I just.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They just throwing them in there and I don't, I'm not trying to tempt the kid by saying I think he's better than what Mitch Turbinski turned out to be. But you know, they had that Mitch Turbinski vibes coming out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Years ago and they picked him and he ain't turned out to be nothing. I'm not saying that kid gonna be that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they talking about him better than the only thing he has.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On Jayden Daniels is he's a thicker quarterback, like he has the NFL ready.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, a girth of a quarterback. He could take the hit of an NFL, uh, lineman or linebacker or a defender. You see what I'm saying? That's what he has. He's a thicker.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kind of a quarterback. He's a thicker quarterback. He's a thicker body type.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But that's not saying, you know, Jayden could kind of get his stuff too. But Jayden Daniels.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Man, the Saints could talk to him till they blew in the face. They're not going to be able to get in Jayden Daniels. We know this. They're not going to be able to land and get him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All right, Brian, what's up? Brian says, do you think the Broncos let Russell? He says, do you think that the Broncos let Russell Wilson go yet? I've seen a reports that they said they're going to release them. That means you're going to get Jamis Winston in fridge. And if we don't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sign them back real quick. I don't think the saints won't, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fam, I don't think Jameis is coming back to the Saints. I think the Saints are gonna post, uh, June 1st cut Jameis.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, that's just my feeling on it. I think they're going to go in a different direction with the quarterback. I think just like Michael Thomas, the Jamis Winston thing, that ran its course.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He wants to go somewhere where he has a chance to play and star for the NFL and any NFL. So I just think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It unran its course and James, he never got a fair shot here. Let's just keep it a buck. He didn't get a fair shot here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The year when he got hurt and he came back, they didn't play him because he called Dennis Allen out, Dennis Allen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I benched him for the rest of the year and I didn't like that. That's another thing I didn't like that he did. So yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tony says, Bill took a year off, hope next year he comes to the Saints, what do you think about?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Bill Belichick would be a very good coach for the Saints. The problem is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who was, they've been trying to get Harbaugh to come to the NFL for years now, for years. Every year was like Harbaugh's coming and he would turn them down and go back to Michigan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then a year you get Belichick and Harbaugh and several other really good coaches out there. And the Saints don't even look in that direction. Oh, we got Dennis Allen. We straight. I just don't, that's what I'm saying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What general manager don't look and say, man, that's Bill Belichick over there, but he will tell you that Dennis Allen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And compare Dennis Allen to Bill Belichick, which is reposterous. It's ridiculous.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He can't stand in the same world. He ain't even in the same universe as Bill Belichick. Let me tell you something, man. I ain't trying to disparage him, but you do him a disservice by even trying to put him even close to that guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He has, he has none of those, those traits and those attributes. He has none of that. No disrespect to him. But if I'm a real general manager, I'm always looking at my options outside of what I got. Cause I want to see if I can do better. This idiot here don't do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He believes whatever decision he's make is a top notch decision and it comes with zero effort or no error.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a hundred percent win right here. Y'all just, all y'all wrong. Dennis Allen is a hundred percent win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it's a hundred percent win. I don't miss. I pick Peyton. I pick Dennis Allen. I'll pick, I win every time. That's how he thinks. It's crazy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know what to tell you on it fam, but it's not too often you see those types of guys floating around and you don't even look out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you coming off of three years of nine playoff wins. Think about that. Nine playoff seasons. And you don't even look in that direction. So I don't, bro, I don't, I don't know what to say about that, man. I really don't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, J Ray also says that as much as we've romanticized the Brees and Payton era, if they didn't get the offensive line right, we saw how Drew suffered. Yes indeed, indeed, yes, yes indeed, and true indeed. Brother Arvin said, I don't want Carr for more than one year, but Carr.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the right scheme and receivers could do well, but we wouldn't, he wouldn't take, I think car, if you can get him, listen, bro, I don't think car is a lost cause for the right coach. If you can get the right dude to get him to do the right stuff, then we got a chance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We got a chance. We got a chance. If you can get him to stop, you know, looking over half the field and go through his progressions. If you could some kind of way get him to get a clock in his head to get rid of the ball on time, you can get some success.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And a lot of things is taking the ball out of Carr's hands too. Like, have a, giving him a running attack. You know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Giving him a running attack and taking the ball out of his hands, running the ball well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And going into more of a play action style of offense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can win with that. You, you simplify the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like that, you can win with, you can definitely win with that. But the thing is, that's what it comes down to getting them in that situation where, you know, you get them to drop all those bad habits, you know, that that's the big point about all of this, you know, Brian says, Bill Belichick is going to the Cowboys next year. He's not coming to New Orleans. If he does, I will kiss Mickey Loomis's shoes. Okay. But I don't think that's going to happen. Yeah, I did, bro. You know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't, I don't think it's going to happen either, man. We'll see what happens, man, this upcoming year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the Saints, man, cause it's going to be a lot more difficult. There's rumors circulating. I know y'all probably heard it. Rumors circulating around about the Falcons, uh, looking at, uh, Justin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Feels the current Chicago bill starting quarterback and listen, let me tell you something fam. You know, if.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Falcons, and they supposed to know, and Low told me, he says, Q, we want JT.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lil told me, I said, hello, what y'all gonna do at the quarterback position, brother? He called me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said, uh, he said, well, Q, I'mma be honest with you, bro. We want Jayden Dance. I said, the hell y'all do?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're not getting no Jayden Dance. He said, we gotta go and get him, bro. I said, bro, come on, man. Y'all want Jayden Dance? Then I thought about it. I said, you know what? You know what? Y'all get Jayden Dance, brother.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, y'all might just be able to help us out with some stuff down here. We got a problem. We got two, we got a, we got a guy over the team right now. Y'all might be able to help us out. Like we helped y'all out last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So yeah, it's, it's one of them things, man, where you kind of look at it. And then what I'm saying is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] NFC South is going to be a much more difficult lead. How much more? I wouldn't say vastly more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But these guys, these NFC South teams, Carolina, Atlanta, they got new coaches, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tampa Bay just signed Mike Evans back. They gave him a two year extension, so they got Mike Evans back in the, uh, NFC South.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're, they like Baker Mayfield and they, they want to bring Baker Mayfield back. And they obviously stumbled on something good right there because Baker knows that system. We know Kanellis is going to the rival Carolina Panthers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's going to put a schema together to help him build him up. If you could take, if Kanellis can take.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's the whole thing of building a line around him and giving him whatever the weapons that he needs. And Canelas could do that because they already have a good defense. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are going to be more impactful. So at the end of the day, the Saints.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're not going to have a bunch of pushovers in the NFC South. They're going to have some difficulty to go through.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In this upcoming year. So it's not going to quite look the same. Like, Carolina's going to be improved.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Atlanta is going to make a jump depending on what they do at the quarterback position. If Justin Fields is the guy that they go with there, seriously, if Justin Fields is who?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Raheem Morris decides to be who their quarterback is. Bam, that makes them the favorites in the South. It really does. And I'm not saying Justin Fields is a, uhm, you know, he's like a,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, this, that, and the third, but listen, Justin Fields works well with what they got going on there. He really does. And of course they'll have a compliment wide receiver to Drake London. You know, they'll have Kyle Pitts there, John Newsmith.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the two running backs of Robinson and, and, uh, Algieri and whoever else they add.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were really only a competent quarterback away from really kind of stepping their game up, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They get Justin Fields there and of course they're installing a new offensive coordinator, the guy that comes over from the Rams. So they'll have the Rams offense along with Justin Fields and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The weapons that they have and whatever they add in free agency in the draft, man, listen, let me tell you something, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like I said, man, you can, it's only so long these teams gonna stay bad, man, until somebody's gonna do the right thing to jump up there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Russell Wilson to me and I've always been a Russell Wilson guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Russell Wilson to me has, he, I ain't gonna say he's washed, but fam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like the, the, the offense that Sean Payton's offense is supposed to be like, and not, like I said, they have Sean Payton installed in it, but Russell Wilson, man, some of them games.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His leadership wasn't there. You can see his confidence wasn't there. And I thank man to a great degree. Where's his competitive fire? You know, dude.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know if he's, I don't know. It just, he don't look like the same quarterback, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just say that. I respect what he did from the past, but I'm not, I wouldn't put no goddamn money on him. I'll just be honest with you fam. Man, he just didn't look the part last year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All right, Daniel says Saints could win. I see a lot of negative talk against the Saints by Saints fans. I mean, I'm a Saints fan. I don't expect them to lose like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of you guys. Well, I mean fam, listen. You can call it negative noise, you can call it whatever you want, damn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, not every year is going to be, the team is responsible for giving you something to be positive about. It really isn't a lot of what you see in people. People see this as a thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I advocate for people to keep it real and keeping it real to people be like, I don't see how they going to do this, that and the third. Listen, overall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People respect the Saints talent-wise, but you cannot overlook the fact that they got players that's not satisfied in direction of the team. The team is not showing the leadership. Where's the leadership at?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Order to compete and win in the NFL, you got to have consistent leadership. The Saints are not exhibiting that. So even if they, if they cautious, if they optimistically or blindly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Run into it to the season, like with their hopes high, they're just going to get disappointed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, the team is, you gotta look at it from a reality standpoint, like the team has to give you something to be positive about, you know, you know, if, if it's a situation where, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, guys want to get, want to leave the team because they don't believe in the direction of the team. We can't ignore that. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I tell people to keep it real. If that's your vantage point, you keeping it real, that's fine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But in the end, you don't disparage other people cause they feel, cause you call in their commentary negative. Fam. What do you, what do you see that's, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The goal is to win and make the playoffs. You got an old team. You can't run around that. You know, you can't run away from that, bro. You know, in the end.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the team has to give them something to be proud of, man. Give them something to be, uhm, you know, up in arms about. Good evening to you, brother.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yeaah, I hear you man, and a lot of people are saying it, and it can be a bit overwhelming, but take my approach Daniel, take my approach. My approach is, the Saints this season is going to bring the truth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it's going to bring the truth about whether the Saints got enough to be able to take it to the next level. This is a crucial year for our head coach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Got a guy that never done nothing before from a head coaching level. Never took nobody nowhere. Does all this weird stuff all feel, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Throw his teams under the bus. So I mean, we, we kind of in a strange space right now. So my approach is like, you know, I'm just operating with truth, bro. I'm not, I'm not disappointed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not, I'm not putting my expectations, my expectations high up in the sky. I'm walking with truth, my friend. That's all I got. The truth is, and if the truth is, you know, if the saints are the truth, then they'll, they'll win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If they lose, then the truth is they wasn't good enough and we need to get another coach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But one way or the other, we gonna be washed away all of the, the, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All of the stuff that is not true will be washed away by the truth this year. This is a truth year for me. That's how I'm looking at it fam. So try not to get too far down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the dumps about the saints because you know, like I said, they got to give you something to be proud of bro and they really not doing it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All right, Corvada says Denver needs a lot. Sean never wanted Russ. Russ was too beat up. Yeah, I think I, I ain't gonna say Russ, Russ, uh, Russ is washed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But he damn near close, man. Let me tell you something. He damn near close.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Russ definitely did. Well, it's over. I ain't gonna say he's washed, but he damn near closed, bruh. I'm like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was, I watched him several times last year, man, and I was not very happy about what I seen. What's up, Laura? Shout out to you. All right. So yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yeaah, that, that's what that, but in the end, uhm, man, all I can say, man, is that we as a team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We just got to wait and see how it all ends. Now this whole Latimore situation, man, we'll see in the end how it all shakes up, man, but it could go either way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is something that, uh, Lattadaddy wants to happen, man. It'll be, uh, it'll be rough. It'll be a rough situation, but you know, at the end of the day, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not surprised by it at all because of the last three years of losing and guys are frustrated, man. Plus all the other shenanigans that goes around the team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's, guys are frustrated. And remember last year guys got arrested, you know, our wide receivers got arrested because they were frustrated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was just a very strange year and I head into the, to the next year, what kind of energy they're going to bring. We can only wait and see because I'm anxious to see what kind of moves that they make in terms of.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whether or not, uh, ladded, you know, they pulled a trigger on this, so it's just some rumor stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How do you repair it? Because the biggest question is, if the Saints want to have some success, they gotta be able to run the football. So they gotta clean up that offensive line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I do like Clint Kubiak. That's something to be happy about the fact that you got a Clint Kubiak. Install that, uh, that, uh, 49ers offense. We'll see how that looks. So that'll be fun to watch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Part of the game to see what the 49ers offense look in the Saints in the Saints version of it. So that'll be fun to watch as well. But in terms of truth, man, I'm going to just walk in the truth and just see what's going on with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can't, you know, I won't let them get me down one way or the other. You know, we love football, man. We want to see good football in the end.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If they, if they win or lose, man, we gonna, I enjoy the experience of being with the family members. That's how I do it, man. You know, whether...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whether we win or lose, I still got the fam, man. That's how I look at it. So I guess that's my positive, Daniel.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what I'm saying? That's the positive. Whether we win or lose, we still got the fam. Man, we winning and losing together. So that is the positive I can, I can take from it right there. Uh, UGCQ, I'm definitely keeping it 100 with our Saints as a, as a business and as a consumer. Show me. There you go. Let me see if I got that going.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hear them to be optimistic, also keeping it a buck, repping my pills. That's right. When they come back off that, yeah, there you go. Represent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, so yeaah. It been a while, man, since I hit that button, man. I had to bust that button.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, so anyway, man, shout out to the fam, man. A lot of people said, keep em, don't trade em. We'll see fam, only time will tell, man. We getting closer and closer into the season of, you know, we got some crucial days coming up, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hit that button in a while, man, so you know how that goes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna get out on that. Listen, I appreciate you guys, uh, stepping in with me tonight. Listen, we'll return Tuesday on the Patreon special, man. We'll go more into it. We'll talk more about the Saints stuff as well, man. And like I said, this Lantermo stuff is not really something, uh, that's new. This has been going on, uh, during the season. We'll be hearing, like, grumblings of it throughout the season. And we knew eventually something in the off season would kind of peak up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] About what's going on with Lattimore and the New Orleans Saints.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, only time will tell which direction the saints choose to go with it. All right, one more. Ava says, cue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'ma take a wait and see approach with the whole offensive situation. Kubiak has struggled in Minnesota here from about, okay, okay, maybe he's improved. Okay, thank you, Avis. Appreciate that, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And see the big part about it is the big question mark.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is how do they get the offensive line together? And the second thing is how does, uh, Clint Kubiak react or work with Derek Carr? That's another big sticking point right there of what we can see going on there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So thank you, Avis, for that. Dana says, neither did Pete Carroll. Can you blame? Yes, indeed. So anyway, with that being said,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'ma pop out on that. Listen, I'ma holla at y'all on the flip side. I'ma be on Patreon tomorrow, man. I appreciate y'all for being here, and I'ma hit y'all up on the next one. Much love, and ooh, that
