For the boys.

Are you not overly ostentatious videos of CBS sports radio here in beautiful New York City sitting on top of the 10 4345 Hudson St., what the mold into a Monday edition of the Zach Gelb show across all the great local CBS sports radio affiliate Sirius XM channel 158 and the free Odyssey appy 552124 CBS armor to jump on in 855-212-4227. You can always get at me on Instagram from straight flexor and or the Google cesspool of twitter at Zach Gelb that the ACH GE LBB are coming to you live from the rocket mortgage studios whether you're looking to purchase a new home refinance yours. Rocket mortgage can help you get there from on solutions that fit your life well rocket candy produces extravaganza for the next four hours is no other then hot take icky.

I got a start up the show today talking about the 49ers originally about 45, 50 minutes ago when Nikki asked me what I was good to talk about to leave the show with today. I said why Jimmy grappler will be on the 49ers this year because I read a report today from Ian Rappaport who appear in the Pat McAfee show that we were to get a resolution.

In the next 24 hours or so on GBG status and when I heard that I'm looking through this entire situation. He has been traded yet we glance at the Browns.

They don't seem inclined to make that move, even though they should have in Seattle just named Gino Smith the starting quarterback which is laughable because Bocchino Smith interlocks tank training enter division gets a little bit tricky. I do think the 49ers and Seahawks ever were to be able to get a deal done for Jimmy grappler must've.

It was a rich price tag and as we know, the quarterback market where it is right now. It's not conducive via trade for the guys that were out there was a Baker Mayfield go for a conditional fifth you look at GBG this late in the game. I never thought it was good to go. He was never to go for lucrative price tag. So long story short I thought GBG was going to be with the 49ers this year. Now if you had asked me that two months ago three months ago. Even at the start of the Aussie's ears and Zach Jimmy grappler could be in the 49ers. Can we quanta 2022.

I probably would've called you an idiot and a moron. An adult within circumstances change.

We know we had the injury, he was not healthy until August Carson once went for a big price early yet obviously had to Sean Watson get traded. You then had Russell Wilson get traded and Rogers didn't go anywhere. Baker Mayfield eventually went and there's always an odd guy out GBG. Unfortunately for him was the guy out and as we just saw a little while ago but half-hour ago. According to Adam Schechter, Jimmy June, the 49ers agreed to restructure one your contract that will keep him in San Francisco this season. The contract also contains a no trade clause and a no tag clause so not surprising today. I know some people are surprised by it, but I was not that GBG is good to be on the 49ers this season at least a start week one and then who knows, maybe there's an injury to get traded some rows but he does have the right to reject that trade. If he does not want to go that team if he doesn't think the team that the format of trade into puts him in the best position to restore his career that he could tell the 49ers and John Lynch, I'm not accepting a trade that team so only get into where we go from here. There's a few options. Jimmy Chica waited out this entire season in San Francisco then walk at the end. The next year and have the freedom to choose words could be playing football in 2023. He could also see if an injury to happen to Trey Lance, which would put them back on the field with the team that he knows very well in the playbook that an assistant that is been in for last three years or you can wait to see what other injuries happen around the league and the first two weeks of the season before the trade deadline that would potentially allow them to get traded to one of those teens or he could just sit there say all the right things, be a good teammate and just wait for Trey Lance to crumble because even though the 49ers made a move two years ago that weight was highly questionable, they trade up all those assets to get to the number three overall pick in at the time they don't even know who they were to be picking we knew Trevor Lawrence is going one we knew Zach Olson was going to when you got to the third pick, and even Kyle Shanahan revealed this last week or two weeks ago they were deciding between Mac Jones and Trey Lance and eventually Trey Lance one out so you traded up a king's ransom to get the number three overall pick.

You know which quarterback you are to be taking an right now two years later GBG played well at Jimmy G when he got treated to the 40 or winning a trigger for knives and played a few years you probably never thought it was good. When a Super Bowl ago they were to sue brother another NFC title game. I still think he's a guy that wins the Super Bowl in this league, but that doesn't mean there's not a place for him in this league.

GBG is not a trash quarterback.

GBG is not a bad quarterback GBG is an above average good quarterback in this league.

He's the guy that you put them in the right system to going games. He's like a little bit above what I referred to as your traditional system quarterback. That's a GBG is going to get you really close. Denny almost got you tasty. The trophy absolutely. But in the big spot it crumbled. We know the overthrow to manual Sanders. He was that close to securing San Francisco Super Bowl and I give him credit because last year it was looking all that good, and they found a way to rebound and I found a way to take the lead in the fourth quarter. Nancy title game and almost go to another Super Bowl. But here we are now two years after the Trey Lance pick and I don't know which relates to debate at the time of the draft. Everyone was raving about Trey Lance and we had him on the show year before even enter the draft and I was blown away by the interview. The Trey landscape. Just because your good interview doesn't mean you turn out to be a good quarterback and I don't know what Trey Lance is going to be in this league. People keep on tell me all was outside his ceiling is all that that's fine. It's ultimately potential potential means you haven't done it yet and now Trey Lance is good to be given an opportunity to show you what he could do. My question just becomes how short of the leeches are going to be for Trey Lance because of the 49ers get off to a slow start, let's say they go to and for his Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch of a Super Bowl mentality they been in this business a long time.

They been servers go together for more than a few years and they been close are they to be able to look the other guys in the eyes in the locker room and say were still rolling with Trey, Lance, they should and they should go to Jimmy G if it's based on poor play.

I would not go to Jimmy G this year. Now Jimmy G gets on the field because the Trey Lance injury that's different. But if it's just outperformance this year. You guys made the move. You guys made your bed now you have to lie that even if that means there's some adversity before seeing some potential success on the 49ers. I can make this moribund liquid about the big I intend and I will as long as Trey Lance doesn't get hurt this year started for all 17 regular-season games. You may take a step back, you may not be a playoff team. But we have to find out what Trey Lance is over the span of an entire season and I was an advocate of starting him last year they did not now a year later, they tell you he's their guy. They did not make a move today that keeps Jimmy G on the roster and it's not necessarily an indictment on Trey Lance. II don't I would hope they still believe fully and Trey Lance like what is a been able to do in the last year year and 1/2 two years to make is that we don't believe it. He hasn't really been given that opportunity.

Now it's time to given that opportunity and I don't look back but you know what and I know it they could think okay Trey Lance is our guy.

I would hope they don't think it they would know what bullet they gave up. But if you quickly go back to Jimmy Jake or you go back to Jimmy G at all this season, Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch are to have a lot of egg on their face as long as it's not because of injury event performance you should keep Trey Lance on the field whether he succeeds or fails this year, even though that could be tough when you have a group that was so close to win the Super Bowl a few times over the last two years, and Jimmy G may be a better option for them now but you told us two years ago by essentially drafting Trey Lance that you think you needed another quarterback to go on a Super Bowl so I would not have a quick cook here picking yourself because the 49ers today. I don't hate this move, I was surprise. Three. Four months ago. Once again, like I laid out a gas refuse to be the roster was absolutely not. But going into today. I kind of expect them to be on the roster is unnecessarily indictment on Trey Lance.

It just because the market never move the way that they thought it was going to move for Jimmy G.

So I kind of feel like you do for now just cut Jimmy G.

Now you wait to lecture to get a compensatory pet and you're not just to give them away for nothing. And who knows if there was ever even a real market form last week two or three whatsoever with you. Like why should the 49ers feel compelled to figure how to cut Jimmy G if there's no one interested while they just give away an asset. What is for free when you could like you said one thing if he was like a pain in the asked chip on the shoulder type of guy like this was Baker in San Francisco. There was no and this is not a knock on Baker. I like the mentality Baker has Baker's more in-your-face bakers more aggressive. The moment use this me.

I'm going to just give up on you Jimmy drop below has been knocked around a lot.

There's a lot of things that have been said about Jimmy drop below and he's answered every question the right way.

What makes me think that he's get a handle this differently now.

Especially when he just agreed to reduce his contract. He is one of those ultimate teen guys.

So I think is to say and do all the right things right and it's he's incentivized to do so.

Exhibitors a play this year you here. You know he's mentoring trailer to be helpful. That's going to help his case next year by yelling at you help entice a team. We know what he is, I feel about that ultimate think we can for him to really improve his stock drastically next year. Want to just naturally through time were nectar.

There's good, let's just say three or four teams from this this past season or this upcoming season there quarterbacks are to fail there not to be able to get their guy in the draft, or other guys they sought after for agency than the naturally just go to Jimmy G will become a free agent after the season or the way that you really restore your mature Jimmy J would be Trey Lance unfortunately gets hurt and then you get on the field or I would not this was 49ers of trail and struggles. Then you go to Jimmy G. And maybe he can be the guy the knight in shining a Hummer that comes in on the horse and get some back to the postseason potential bombing. We should also is enough a Jimmy do you know he's on the field. You know it's not like always, is it? You really know you know momentum and timing is everything but give Jimmy Gina get hurt and had to get that surgery I would have to have thought that someone would've traded form and they thought it they have to wait. August you tell me the commanders would rather have Carson once and Jimmy grapple both John Lynch and Kyle Shannon have basically said you he would enjoy the ready and there was more like a just away and not if so, they already were talking, I like going to happen and what happened, you're right. Do you agree with me, though, unless you have an injury to Trey, Lance, Trey, Lance, need to start all 17 games.

Without a doubt you God take your lumps and you gotta exit take your medicine. This is your guy and playing Jimmy G. Butler pulled a record of five games lecture seven Angel try to save the season is not going to help in the long run visits no real incentive to do so.

You have to play Trey Lance even if it gets ugly at times you're frustrated with some inconsistencies that are designed over is best for your future. I want to be careful here and what I'm about to say because this is not me telling you that John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan aren't good at their jobs because that would just be a jackass or restatement, but I do feel like John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan are a little bit overrated. Where people put them in the category being a great head coach and a great general manager. I'm not saying they're bad, they're very good but the way that people talk about them. You would think both of them combined. As a general manager had coach forget the playing days were want to Super Bowl or two. By now that hasn't been the case. I got a beautiful job in restoring San Francisco this entire process though in drafting Trey Lance when you made the trade you did know really who you were going to take then two years later, I don't think today's indictment on Trey Lance. But people interpret it that way and ultimately at best case scenario, or the most realistic scenario right now to go get a compensatory third round pick for Jimmy drop below when you would've thought when you made that move for Trey Lance two years ago you would've got a little bit more. The entire handling of this just seems a little bit sloppy right it is been interesting. I would agree to say the least, but I still he they deserve the benefit of the doubt they have one but I get this right will absolutely not touch as I know we have a resource delivery is something that yes right there screwed San Francisco absolutely if they get a right they could win multiple symbols and that is it's one of those things where we got into one of those legendary debates where I just wanted to yell at you the entire show.

When you were telling me all Trey Lance has the most upside it in that drafters a high ceiling is what you were saying, and I was just like basil for what the fact that a lot of people just haven't seen them play football business plan North Dakota state and then the covert year only play that one game because that quarterback but we identified of the Indian affairs replica here before. He was a first round pick, but how many quarterbacks are first-round picks and then they quickly kind of go down the wrong path in this league and the team that drafted and then quickly gives up on looking at savers go schedule your the first two weeks of the season. Trey Lance better soft to know I get a young quarterback you're playing Chicago.

The Bears stink and you're playing Seattle there starring Gino Smith that that gets all the top Denver LA but appear to be a franchise quarterback you should be able to weather the storm.

The first four weeks that you get Caroline Atlanta, but after Caroline Atlanta Ryan, this is what you getting some problems. Kansas City, the Rams, the Chargers and the Cardinals a bye week in between the Rams and in the Chargers but that's 4/5 weeks and in terms of opponents for Trey Lance and if you get off to even a chewing to start and let's just say then just split Caroline Atlanta and you're sitting. Three and three. After the first six and then you lose to Kansas City. The Rams, the Chargers in Arizona then you go to three and seven and that's when things really start to hear the calls for Jimmy grapple if that's the case, that will be a time this year were 49ers fans ironically are to be calling for Jimmy J but unless you have an injury to Trey Lance. I would stick and be loyal to Trey Lance's entire season because you made that move two years ago you said Jimmy.

She's not good enough to win a Super Bowl.

Now you need to give a full year of opportunity as a starting quarterback for Trey Lance to show if the at least can give you enough moments where you maybe think yourself while we got this right and then a year from now is what ultimately will know if it was the right move, because then that's the next year were Trey, Lance would take that massive step should the 49ers rock 'n' roll the entire season with Trey Lance 855-2124 CBS 855-212-4227 become a back should people be concerned about Tom Brady after hearing him speak this weekend we discussed. Second, chose to be a sports radio listening to the second Guild show should Jimmy G.

Stay or should he go well today does John not going anywhere.

Jordan Belford style except you're not really running the company they're going to be the backup quarterback for now in San Francisco, but he takes the team friendly salary reduction and he is staying put in San Francisco for now, he does get a no trade clause in there also be a no franchise tag clause at the end of the season upon the 49ers. I've said it once, twice, three times already this program on I'll save for 1/4 time limit on the air for 24 minutes now just repeating myself, unless you have an injury to Trey Lance Trey Lance should be your starting quarterback regardless of performance for all 17 games this year you made the big move. He gave up all the draft picks. Now we gotta see what he could do over a full season and there's been times in this league for every quarterback that flames out real quickly.

There is been quarterbacks in this league that they spend one year on the bench sure barely getting minimal game time and then you number two when it's their first year as a starter. They break out and become superstars. We saw Lamar Jackson unanimous MVP first full year starter patch homes 50 touchdowns MVP first full year as a starter loss of the ANSI title game in overtime, telling that's can happen with the 49ers. I've been saying all off-season long we are operating under the assumption Jimmy G was aiming to be on the roster that the 49ers probably miss the playoffs this year and that be more likely to make the playoffs even a weekend of say because even though were getting into this feeling of a guy sexier than plays.

You see, Lamar. You seem homes.

Those guys are different and time will tell what type of quarterback Trey Lance will be. I just need to see enough signs of the end of this year. That makes me think okay I've seen enough good moments I could tangibly hold onto and now that's what gets me thinking Trey Lance is the guy for the 49ers but if they go three and 603 and seven to start the year. Then you pull the plug and you go right to Jimmy G what you're really doing because you know what you mean she's going to do.

He could get back to the playoffs. He could get John a winning streak. The odds of you though winning a Super Bowl with them are not great and you made this move two years ago. Whether you wanted to say they're not basically saying we need someone else of the quarterback position to win that Super Bowl DCCCLV-2124 CBS a provide 212-4227 let's get some reaction from you on Jimmy garrotte below.

We start things off with David in California. First up on this at Guild show Dave what's up. Thanks for taking my call. Man, what a great conversation that a 49er fan all my life and I'm really happy that garrotte below. Stay. I think the 49ers made the mistake of not playing the kid enough in preseason. He only got a few series. I don't think anybody really knows what they've got. Especially because of the middle of their offense of line. They had three new starters and they were getting manhandled by the Houston Texans, and they've got to get the middle of that line straightened out.

Or Joe Montana is not good for the thing you're not wrong with the offense of line. How many times you need to be Mr. cliché here and say you win with the it with the other battle in the trenches with the big fellas upfront, but I can't put too much stock in the preseason. Would you rather have him play better in the preseason absolutely. We don't always get to see what happens in training camp and what happens in practices and all those things. So that's why when I look at it. I'm not bitter. Overreact to what he hasn't done yet or what we haven't seen from him yet and that's what I keep on saying give them an entire season and let's see what he could do from game one to game 17 and now Ryan.

We live in a society where we expect things to happen right away and maybe not. Maybe twitter is not a reflection of the majority of society, but we sometimes allow it to be and run a very big take society right now right need to get your take. I need to get a yes or no. Right now, most likely throughout the season.

You're not good, and no if if I Trey Lance is the guy for the future, but not everything happens overnight if he goes gives you nine or 10 good games this year. That's a good sign.

Even if there mean there six or seven games were. He looks really raw and really inconsistent and that's why you gotta let him learn by experience and learn from playing iron.

We had Daniel Jeremiah on right after the draft just two years ago and he goes everyone says he needs more experience so people advocating for them to sit entire when you get experience is by playing in Ohio that opportunity to show if he could weather the storm throughout the season and that's the tough part about this right because you have a team that has a Super Bowl mentality, a team that was in a Super Bowl a few years ago I was an entity title game last year.

This is been a good organization for the good team last for five years and bite when you go to quarterback this is that is this young in this unproven tenant work absolutely is probably at work in your one as a starter. No and that's the tricky part where your quarterback is still learning and your quarterback still trying to show that he has what it takes but the rest of the team already has shown you. We know that we are at a bare minimum, a damn good team but the record this year. Ryan may not reflect in them being a damn good team. If that quarterback is up and down, up and down like we expected to write goes back to expectations of what can you realistically expect for the season and the good news is, at least, the 49ers have been very up front that this is transitive in the start is not a decision words trailer to team on August 29.

He's our guy, and also was last year where all I I can't tell you what could happen tomorrow. We could all be dead.

When Kyle Shanahan said that at least they been definitive really since the season ended, this is Trey Lance's teams, even though we sing around is still no doubt our even a Jimmy G.

Singer and still no doubt who's a leader that's number 512 a few things need to happen this year also returned Lance to have success.

And this is also organizations do you put your player in the right spot and not ruin him early confidence wisely is a few bad games and people are calling for Jimmy G to be the starting quarterback that you're not breaking tenant break and, yes, but if he's the guy that you trade from the third overall pick for the fertile and to go take one third overall pick.

You should of been confident that he could put up with what could be a difficult transition. Now though, you need Kyle Shanahan, who everyone loves and everyone says is a phenomenal head coach need for him to put his young quarterback in the right position. That means a lot of Elijah Mitchell.

That means a lot to Jeff Wilson Junior. That means depot Samuel has a clause in the contract want them as much as possible and then you need really George Kittle to stay healthy young quarterback it's so key that he quickly gets the ball out and not just wait and wait and wait and wait and then make a mistake.

The longer you wait so you look for running backs in the short games at the football to you.

Look for depot Samuel on about the swing place to get the football to put then for 5 yards up line of scrimmage.

Just dump it off to a guy thing that could be a Hall of Famer one day and George Kittle so you have the tools where yes it may not be a great product this year but grind it should be a serviceable product as long as lancers doesn't fall flat on his face, but they had the pieces I think to help him from sinking bad. The floaty's. Let's just say on Trey Lance with a good run game on offense, a line that that I know what David just set in California and loves what he saw from the preseason but usually a good offense, a line and a good approach to helping young quarterback we seen again very small sample size of really good quarterback some really good teams right away. This is the latest one were trailer trade. I can expect 50 touchdowns but still should be more good than bad.

What's go to Stephen North Carolina. Next up on this act… Even what he offer me that my call to make a quick point on the John Lynch on the trade to make anything I will guarantee you that he is tried it, or they could trade Jimmy.

I will also say that GM's around the league have been watching film of him and know that he physically diminished that shoulder problem is nowhere near the pastor that he was when he first came into the league and AGM do not want to spend $20 million a year on a modern-day Chad Pennington understand that you note Lynch was codified in the part of the code, but also understand why GM wouldn't want to ruin the roster flexibility with Chad Pennington making 20 million year right now and they just were just a salary-cap number so we'll see if that just does change the trade process I get at the reporting today is that he's good to be on the team for the season but he does have a no trade clause, Jimmy G though whether you love them or not.

And I don't even love the guy. He has been able to win a lot of games this year and just a year ago.

He did a nice job in restoring his image that he had to get surgery and that's why you had a long waiting out.

You're busy to know what he was good to be able to be healthy. So when you bring in Jimmy G.

You don't jump up and down like a fat kid in the candy store but with a lot of quarterbacks that get second and third chances in this league talk really have the resume that Jimmy got Rob below has even though I've been someone that's been critical of Jimmy J… About Shanahan tried to trade him. But what were you realistically going to take when you see Baker who to Mary Baker got as far as God's accomplices, Jimmy Jean this league, but Baker has more upside for the future where you're not wrong. I don't know where his body's going to be. There's a lot of mileage, though all on his body for someone that is not started as many games as his age would indicate in Jimmy garrotte below, but ultimately we've seen the last years the guys been hurt so did some GM's maybe saddle to the outside. There's a lot of interest from her injury than who knows what could happen.

Sure. But even with the injury passed was the Goodenough last year for the 49ers to be one bad quarter and update not that bad quarter in the in the fourth quarter. Yancey title game in the Super Bowl last year amid the whole the entire damn thing. Who knows that guilt chose to be a sports radio.

I will become a back we will get you some Tom Brady audio flow from over the weekend and everyone's reacting to ask the question earlier give you my answer. On the other side, listening to the second Guild show then you are barred sorry car care needed to guarantee low prices and excellent customer service from the professional parts people at O'Reilly auto parts, 000 rightly auto parts I had taken key real quickly and entirely to do this, but there we go with moss 49ers addition Chicago to start off the season with Trey Lance's QB will win Seattle week to win. Then there in Denver since Sunday, September 25 tough on the loss so that has them at two and one start of the season this Monday Night Football the home game for them but they play the Rams loss to into that's good idea if you put two and one 49ers team for Trey Lance. There's really not a lot of takes at that point because you beat the Bears beat Seattle and then if you lose the Denver that should kinda be expected for a guy that starting what is fifth game in the league because he started two games this past year you get back him isolated prime time Monday Night Football against the reigning Super Bowl champions. That's an enormous spot for young quarterback. ESPN is saying thank you. Right now, and that the win the game. You just play well back again a lot of pressure may be away from you by then the records to into you lose 34 games in a row that is a different conversation with Jimmy garrotte below standing on the sideline with the clipboard so you have them turned to the first four games at Carolina on Sunday, October 9.

Well, okay, three, and to bring to Atlanta when that it's good to be foreign to now here is where you get to the tricky part of the schedule and if Trey Lance to be starting sizes. I think he should be.

But if you want this conversation to go away. You really need to get those victories against Carolina, Atlanta, Seattle, Chicago you can afford to have a slip up in one of those agreed because then the wiggle room in terms of fan psychology to go on that game it starts to go away little bit Kansas City game is in Santa Clara is a tough one because the cheese events not very good, and the foreigners events is he was hard kill I will go Kansas City as well as games are transposable. Okay at the Rams loss. So then they go to foreign forlorn for now form for come out of a bye week.

Did they go to Trey Lance. I would say no. I meant to go to Jimmy G. I would say no if you're known for no get the bye week but that's just up potential topic conversation, even if they are, let's just say a game under 500 at that point we would you then maybe think that conversation intensifies little bit.

No okay Chargers Sunday, November 13 it's a Sunday night football game.

Good primetime spot, Trey, Lance, Justin, Herbert pretty go with their charges.

49ers I know you pick this a go Chargers wow a surprise. You hate the charger so therefore I thought your to go with the 49ers show respect for now. Kyler Mari Cliff Kings Barry Monday Night Football in Santa Clara Cardinals 49ers win for the 49ers so five and five, five and five if you get to that stretcher five and five for the Bloomberg.

They should consider all the I is really no no resistant rate of your two and 10, maybe to not fly today for the first performance of severe starting quarterback the entire year I was on the realistic scenarios you get the towing daddy fine, but anything else like you got a plan because I am okay so Arizona's last game you have a five and five. Yes, New Orleans when the six and five Miami when that makes him 75 file Tampa loss 76 at Seattle shortly Thursday night football doesn't matter when Seattle was in get one this year. Now they think they say commanders when nine insects Las Vegas Las Vegas narrators loss nine and seven and finally Cardinals when you mean the Cardinals place. I do so you have to play both times the time. I don't know because of their their problems at the end of the year, their collapses, so you have them go in attendance at the 10 submissive lasting affect of the rings (70 as he gets his policies absolutely might be that the number one wildcard.

I don't get Dallas or for little bit more love than 10 wins a writer in that barometer. I'm not feeling great now I take videos when the division would occur because I like that at 11. Six. I never said that to go to do that is the tiebreaker to go your way, play divisional record tiebreaker.

This conference record break it down. I look at the 49ers this year. I think because of the ups and downs of the quarterback. I'm thinking eight or nine wins and I could still make them a playoff team, but you get a little bit of holding your breath of your eight or nine tenure lot nine, Philadelphia was a nine went to Meijer they got in the saints are the nine wins and they were on the outside look at it to be fascinating to see how that's going to play out such will do that exercise real quickly party over the weekend. Tom Brady finally did address reporters memory of that 11 days absence. Everyone's wondering where the heck Tom Brady was was he the mass singer what was going on with him as he was reportedly away with family this is what Tom Brady had to say. When he finally got to address reporters this I personally know was that different situations are doing so will have really unique challenges to-you know for 45 years old man going on. So now I shall try to figure like the best you can and you know it's a continuous process so I heard that audio over the weekend and I saw this outrage on twitter and I go, what is everyone freaking out about because I heard the audio I did not see the video. Then you see the video and Brady looked really really skinny but everyone's freaking out over reacting to this how you react to this rhyme because I hear that I put Brady to press conferences now for 20 years, people all you never taught Brady sound that dejected, they never heard Tom Brady sound that upset the same Tom Brady that I've heard from, but maybe it's different when you actually watch the video did this, he sounds like exhausted.

He sounds like there's a lot of stuff going on. It is almost like just say it's worn out. I just don't know. I do know I don't feel comfortable about making that assumption because remember a year ago, leading into that that game up against the patriots ever wow he sounded awfully from the terrible he justly look bad and didn't affect them last year Gaelic league in passing yards and muddling in passing touchdowns was recently ranked the number one plan, then a full top 100.

So when you say what you just said can you explain a little bit more when you mean he sounded sounds exhausted, exhausted, based off what was just the way you talk like he sounds like he is going through the ringer off the field and its icon award and now they get to the trades on the field.

Personally I think he's able to compartmentalize but you see him and Tricia video IKEA and you hear a like he was very candid. I got a lot of stuff going on 45 years old at you. We can use a stock you actually got it.

He said aware that you can't say writer tries itself. That sounds to Eliezer. Sounds like there's a lot of stuff off the field going on family wise arts, maybe not. It was on board, Miriam wants to let happy potentially not to speculate her marriage. They told us it's not health-related. My friend thought a few weeks ago when I was speculating was that this was health-related. Maybe someone in his family, but they've denied that I just it's bizarre to me that he walked away for 11 days. That's the part that's bizarre. What's even more bizarre.

You haven't been able to pinpoint what it is but I don't want to make any hasty reactions or have any hasty takes on this because two things. One, Tom Brady didn't need to be there for 11 days helping more than fine. There's no one in the NFL that knows how to get ready now to prepare for his season better than Tom Brady. He's been doing it at elite level for such a long time and he's fine wine. He gets better with age.

The other part though with this is it is something that it's just been a bizarre off-season retires come back if you would potentially with Bruce Arians Hedin may, for the first time in his career he may not know what he wants but then also I have to use my intelligence Ear and just hearing Brady speak when Brady is a want to talk about something he just kinda shuts down like this, so maybe Brady just saying they had this agreement the box and handed out to a great way in vocalizing this agreement, but you believe that or not. That's up to you and not to answer any of you so I'm going through a lot of bleep lust about the field personal things ever goes through. Blah blah blah. Maybe that's it bounty to explain it to you on Tom Brady so go, but the collapse or something like that but that you're not wrong.

There is something bizarre about this entire thing. I'm just not overreact to that video because it just it's in my mind engraved in my mind how much people are overreacting going into that patriot game role. He looks terrible he sounds terrible and I think he just said it was like the humidity or something or maybe was little bit under the weather, leading into that game. So it's it just bizarre. Bottom line month into the season the boxer to be more than fine.

Would you agree disagree like the box to be a dominant team. Sorry this is not taking waiting my productions of the file on the field. Just use he's going through it. I wonder what he's going through and how big of a deal it is. I don't think it's maybe I'm wrong but I don't think it's as big of a deal. Most were not being told something from a health standpoint, is that everyone's in speculating last 48 hours or so is that guilt show on CBS sports rating. We come back read the little four words or less on college quarterbacks transferred our new and unknown new homes. This upcoming season
