thought although he was far more blunt. They're going to be
coaches and GM's and owners out there who don't want anything
to do with Kyler Murray.
It's not even going to be consideration. He's too short.
We don't want and we don't want that style of offense. That's
not how we want our team to be run. So that would have to be
factored into any
consideration as to the teams that may be interested in
Peter. Let's go there for a minute or two because I tried to
think of the teams that would want him. And
there's not a lot that jump out because
a lot of the teams currently know
who their quarterback will, be.
The three teams that
were in the hunt
for Deshaun Watson, but didn't get him Saints.
Falcons Panthers. Those would be the most immediate 3 because
they already have the wallet out and opened up in the money.
Was there
to order and the draft picks were there as well
to try to get the Sean Watson
so I could see a pivot. Hey.
Two weeks ago, we were trying to get to Sean W. And
now calamari is available,
activate AF, NFC South everyone, but the Buccaneers
activate to try to get Kyler Marie, I would throw the Eagles
on top of that also as a possibility because they were
on the fringes
of the whole DeShaun Watson conversation and never really
swooped in and part because maybe Watson didn't want to go
there and then I put the Texans in play as well.
How could you not add the Texans? Even though
calamari baby stepping into a team? That isn't very good.
Good, he likes playing in Texas now. He'd prefer to play in
Dallas where he's 10 and 0 at AT & T Stadium. But I think he'd
be intrigued by the possibility of playing for the Houston
Texans if they were interested. So those are the five
that to me would be the universe. I've looked at every team and
I can't imagine someone that has their starter
throwing out the current plan for Kyler Murray
because he's not at that level where
you throw overboard. Like if Aaron Rodgers was truly available.
On the market, I think every team would have to say no. Do
we throw overboard? The guy we have?
I don't think calamari is at that level yet, where you would
say? Well, you know what, we're happy with Justin Fields,
you know, and and, and, and
so we're staying. We're staying with who we have. Whoever it is
that you have, that is your plan. Calamari is not so great
that you're going to scrap your plan.
And I think that is exactly where the Philadelphia Eagles
would land.
You know, you we could argue right now that look if we were
doing this last October 20th,
you'd laugh. If if I said that, well, the Eagles don't think
the Cuyler Marie's, a big upgrade over
Jalen hurts.
But but you know,
we've got more evidence than just seven or eight weeks at
the start of last year, when Kyler Murray arguably was
the NFL MVP.
And so I think you have to look at
where the Eagles are where Nick's Irani would be
and you just have to ask them.
Do you want a guy who's been hurt some
who's small, who you know,
you don't know how durable he's going to be long-term.
Is that what you want to do? I mean,
look, I like Kyler Marie. I'd like to have them
for most teams in the NFL for
15 to 18 teams at least
in the NFL. I'd like to have them as my quarterback
but it absolutely is not a slam dunk because you have to ask
yourself long-term.
Do you want to play that style of offense?
And do you want to play with a guy
who looks like
he has been subject to injury?
And and so I think those are the big questions you have to
ask yourself, but Mike, I doubt sincerely
that the Philadelphia Eagles would
would really,
you know, mortgage all of the, the gains that they've made in
draft choices,
you know, and get rid of Jalen hurts and add Kyler Murray.
It's just, that's my gut feeling
and
I could make the argument either way, but it's close
enough
that I wouldn't be 100% certain and look the reality is
the flags are planted. Yeah, the flag is planted
if anybody wants to try to get calamari Now's the Time to make
the phone call to the Arizona Cardinals.
