TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

All right, well, let's get into these coaches. I will top 10 coaches heading into the NFL season. What are you all about to say? Don't talk with me.

I'm just listening to this. I'm just listening to this. I get Jalen on the side, but I said, this is probably the golden ticket that I got. All right, so I'm with me.

Oh, shit. Yeah, I'm going to produce this. Hold on, hold on. Before you go, Spike, Jalen, I need to know.

Is there a particular order that you go? Is it like the worst one in the first one? Is that how you pick these? I need to know.

I think Jalen's just fucking with me. Let me, let me, let me to go twice. I think Jalen has a producer for content of the show. Whoever got the craziest list goes last.

I think that's what happens. So now I'm saying that to excuse myself from going first. Because you in last last last last week. I have the most, I have the most reasonable list.

And I think that's why I'm going first this time. All right, Terrell already. Yeah, it is. I started on with Tim with Doug Peterson.

He is, I mean, he was fired him unjustively after he went to the Super Bowl, who's shit franchise, around a good year. He's still doing this thing in Jacksonville, Sean Payton number nine. I think him and Bo Nix are going to make waves this year. Jim Harbaugh, yes, this is his first season back.

However, he's proven himself in the NFL with the 49ers. I don't want to hear your wild shots. It doesn't matter. Sean Harbaugh, Baltimore Ravens coach, I think, I mean, he has one of the best quarterbacks in the league.

Sean McVay. I mean, you got to have Sean McVay outside the top. Yes, wow. Had a terrible while.

That's number six. They had a terrible team last year. He didn't seem to play off. I'm giving him credit for that.

Number five, Mike McDaniel. He is making great to do with everything that he has in Miami, two or not being. I don't think of Elle Stonck quarterback, but he has put him in the right position to make plays. Can we go round?

I'm hearing great things about the Texans. I'm hearing, we've seen what they did last year. Kyle Shanahan number three, got to win the Super Bowl. I'm going to read number two and Nick as number one, the double-pandest one.

I can't say Mike Tomlin. Mike Tomlin is the pitcher of consistency. Now you can't ask for a better head coach. If he were any other, if you were any other nationality other than Black, they would be praising him as the best coach ever to walk the face of the earth.

They'd be making movies about Mike Tomlin because he's never had to lose in season. Always goes to play off. Mr. Consistency and Black Power, give me Mike Tomlin.

Your top five has only one coach who's won a Super Bowl. What is it? I mean, oh, no, you got two. OK, so you got two.

How many coaches in the league have won a Super Bowl? You know what I'm saying? You have Domenico Ryan's over, Shawnee Vay. Yes.

I love Domenico, but I don't know. You got Mike Domen's over, Shawnee Vay? Yes. You got Mike Tomlin over Andy Rink?

Yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes, Nica. Yes. And they make new plays.

He said perfect lits. He said Mike Tomlin is the best head coach. You could ask for more. I'm like, how about a Super Bowl?

Right. How about two of them? I'm like, Tomlin's been the several Super Bowls, Nick. Thank you.

Andy Rink? He's been the same. Right underneath them. And he got, oh my gosh.

Thank this list, though. It's the best list. Thank you for putting me first, man, so I can get that out of the way. We need to get that out of the way.

At number 10, give me Kevin O'Connell. What he's done with the Vikings is, hey, look at what he's done with the Vikings. That offense is humming. Even with all of the quarterback situations that they had last year, we all questioned JJ McCarthy.

And we saw that he flashed as well. Zach Taylor, for obvious reasons, you know, one of the best offensive rosters. I know I've given him a lot of flak. But at the end of the day, you know, they have been consistent when healthy.

Kevin Stafanski, we've seen with that offense and what he's been able to overcome. You can't be a copic of the basics from C.A. It's not just not a real list, bro. This is a real list.

This is a real list. Dan Campbell at number seven. We see what Dan was able to do. I've been talking about Dan Campbell and how he was turning around to Detroit Lions before they were in the real story last year.

So everybody on the panel, I don't like the Rob Rock Guy. Well, the Rob Rock Guy made top 10 on my list. Mike Tomlin at number six, Nick, I 100% with you. Six.

Yes, at number six, he's right outside the top five. He's an amazing career coach, Spike. But what has Mike Tomlin done for us lately? And now we have to start the question, some of the decisions that have been made the same way we have with Belichick.

So he might be on his way out. Get to my top five. All right, Mike McDaniel, definitely top five coach in the league. He took, I agree with you, Spike, an average, the slightly above average quarterback and made him the highest passer in the league last season.

Matt Lefloor, definitely flourish with Jordan Love. And we saw Jim go all the way to NSC title game. Kyle Shanahan, if he's not a Yo Top 3, I don't know what you're talking about. You mean I'm talking about the right coaches?

Sean McVey at number two, arguably, look, for me, it was splitting hairs between Kyle Shanahan and Sean McVey, but Sean McVey has the better overall record. And it will go fired in the same year. So he also has a better head-to-head record. So that's why I put Sean McVey at number two, Andy Reid.

I don't think there should be anybody ready to hire Andy Reid right now in the league. Real quick, before we move on, not too long, why wouldn't DeMico Ransmio list? He's number 11 for me. He's only been one year.

Everybody else has been here too. He said, the floor flourished. See, I heard that game. I was listening about his list.

I was afraid. I was afraid. You know, he opened up that playbook for Jordan Love. We saw what they did.

Haven't Tomlin, it's six, it's criminal to Black Coach. Mm, you got that. That's great. He's got it.

Who make them like Mollis? Oh, my God. All right, let me get you all started real quick with a real real, real. Get this off the screen right now, bro.

Mix that. Roll, stop. Jalen, Jalen, cut his mic off. Cut his mic off, Jalen.

I got it. Hold on, hold on. Hold on. Put his mic off.

Was it Shelton talking about how the coaching and not calling you the correct routes was hurting Jalen hurts? I think he's saying that. But then he's going to talk to him. I'll do, man.

You're about to do. You're about to do. I put him in a subway web for you. Go Shelton talking about how.

What was that? Even seriously. I tell him you know what I'm saying. I tell him you know what I'm saying.

I tell him you know what I'm saying. I tell him you know what I'm saying. I've got a serbiani on my list. You got a chat GPT telling him that was a dope thing.

And I'm going to be honest. Seria is not one of my favorites. I think that because I'm like fans. I'm like I like the OCC and the PC.

I put Nick Serioni because I'm like my offensive coordinator. Nick Fagio is going to show you some things. You watch what they do. Nine I got damn Campbell.

I'm not really into the Rob Ross. We got a great coach. But he gets out of the way and that's his people at like the Johnson do what he's supposed to do to get them where they are. So you got to get him credit for getting where he is.

Mike McDaniel because he is proven, like we said, about two Avrilinos, about two. He's about the best out of two as opposed to Ryan Flores. At seven I got to make O're Ryan's. You cannot discount the fact that this guy brought a rookie be in in Gotham as far as nobody was talking about the text.

Nobody thought about the text. And so there's no way you can't include this man on your list. And I expect me things from you. John Harbaugh, Mel Citi's a winner in the regular season.

He needs to push further than the playoffs. Well, this shit for me is going to happen really, really make some things happen for the shake. Now let me give you my top five. My top five, I got Mike Tomlin at five.

Proves in the pudding. He's always done more with less. So he deserves to be there no matter what. Four, I got Matt in the floor.

I'm really pleased with how he's developed joint love. And those young receivers, they look like they cooking with hot grease. I love that team. I love what they doing.

Sean McVey at three, Sean McVey. You can't say much about this man other than he wins and puts great product on the field. You see it all the time. I can't put him at two people.

Two has to be Kyle Shanahan because you're winning with Mr. irrelevant at quarterback. You can't put Sean McVey over Mr. irrelevant.

You got to get credit with credit is due. Kyle Shanahan is a guy. And that's when I got angry. I gave Sean McVey credit because he has a better head to head record and he has a better overall record in Kyle.

And I can argue that Kyle has had a better roster than Sean has. He had Mr. irrelevant at quarterback. And he made the Super Bowl.

So for that alone, he deserved to be an in number two spot. And then he read at one because reason down is because he has a best quarterback able to walk the planet of the fix. He made the move to go get. Well, so to me, your big, very costume and argument doesn't make sense because Sean McVey has coached.

And it's currently well, yeah, he has coached two of the top 10 quarterbacks in the league right now in Matt Stafford and Jared Gulf. And he at least won a Super Bowl. And at least he won a Super Bowl. What does Kyle Shanahan have been?

He's been to the dance. I ain't got no numbers. I look at this. This more.

Kyle Shanahan ain't never had a quarterback as good as my staff although. Never. You're on two Super Bowls, bro. But I look right.

He did. That's the point. But I look at it more and less like, what have you done for me? I don't look at it like we're not talking about just awards and accolades.

And that's the case. We shot with this whole list. But it's what have you done for me lately. And then saying that, like I said, I've seen Kyle Shanahan do more lately.

So that's why I got to give him the credit over McVey. Even though, hey, McVey is three. But still, as far as that argument goes, I don't say nobody expected Brock Purdy. Nothing from Brock Purdy.

So to get what? By now, we have been by now. That shit was Brock Purdy like us being wild about. The fact that he's Mr.

That shit is old news, bro. He's been the two NSC championships. And he went to a Super Bowl. You sound crazy.

You sound crazy, Nick. Yeah. You sound. You sound.

You sound right. So we don't have expectations for Brock Purdy going into the season. It's still old. It's season.

This season, not the previous season. Right. And the expectations are now because he's looking for a contract because they've already seen success. He's went to a Super Bowl.

So you're expecting to do that now? That didn't happen before the season. Right. He may have not even been in the league.

He had a number of Kyle Shanahan's. So that's what I'm saying. Brock Purdy's going to go to go. And we learned that from Sean McVey.

Jared Goff may not be in the league if it wasn't for Sean McVey. And Sean McVey actually won a Super Bowl. What about the quarterback? What a quarterback.

What a quarterback we all thought that had all the time the world but couldn't get it done. And it really matters. He changed all the searches on both of them. Jared Goff has had a success with Dan Campbell.

So we can't really say. We can't use him as that example. Has he? Who's gotten most success out of Jared Goff?

Is Sean McVey or Dan Campbell? Well, if you count on a Super Bowl trip, then you can count on him. I'm a Super Bowl trip. You can count on him.

But he looks good. What I'm saying is he looks good. He looks good. Now, you look just as good as Patrick's.

But he did. We didn't think Jared Goff was going to play again like he is after he left Shama Bay. It's not ever, bro. And he's doing it.

That's my point. That's my point. He was here. But he's still doing it.

So the fact that he's doing it, you still got to give him the credit. So it's the player. But in the Brock Purdy case, you can't say the Brock Purdy we went to another team and then done just as much. We can't say that without Shama Bay.

I'm saying based on what we know now, we can't be given. There, man. Let's just move on. I got to go to sleep.

I got to go to sleep. All right, man. Let's jump into it. Let's start with number 10, Kevin Stafanski.

He actually had y'all thinking that Joe Flacko could play quarterback again. Shama Dermott at number nine, Mike Medanio at eight. Give me the floor. Matt LeFlore at seven.

And of course Dan Campbell at six. Moving into the, whoa, I was about to say. Mike McConnell was close to my list. Kevin McConnell.

Give it to me. Go Ryan said number five. Mike Tomlin at number four. Kyle Shanahan at three.

Sean McVay at two. And of course, Andrew Reed, man, at number one. Why you why you get that? What's getting here?

You got it number nine. Why is he on your down list? Why is Sean McVay on the end of the time? Sean McDermott.

That's what I'm going to say. Hey, man, look, look what he did last year. What do you think went from being out of the playoffs to making the playoffs? And that's what you got to get a demand.

Can coach, he's been coaching fairly well. That's a couple of years. So I don't know Kevin Stafanski. Hey, why I'm the only one giving Kevin Stafanski.

Because we already got it off with you. We got to get it. We're going to have to reiterate it. We can.

Like they understand that. I don't like that's not a good pick. Like the Browns are going to suck this year. And he's going to.

Where they back last year? They were not. What's what's what's what's what's that? He did a hell of a game.

He won't win. He won't win. He won't win. He's so flack old, bro.

The fansiest going to get fired this year. That's what's going to happen. Because they paid all of this money for massage room creep. And now it's going to pay off.

And it ain't going to happen. I don't know. I think that's the fansiest been coaching pretty, pretty good. But last year, bro.

No. I mean, you must don't watch this. But you watch it. Yeah.

I mean, you back out there bowling, bro. I give him that. He did. He did.

No, look, the fancy coaches ass. He's one of the I know we people aren't going to really talk about it because how that season ended. But he did go to that. I just don't have a lot of this because I don't think he's actually.

I think he's how many games do you all think the game? Do you all think the Browns will win over nine games this year? A blue last year. Yeah.

World with PJ Walker. Okay. My question is if you had to bet your paycheck, Sheldon, that they browns would win nine games this year. Would you bet?

Nine games. Yeah. This is a tough division at a tough conference. The big All this nickel battle you're doing.

Let's you know exactly. It's great. Yes. Yes.

Oh, pay check right now. I said I said I think I think you can get nine games. You can't. That's the toughest division in football game.

You got 11 last year. Yeah. That's the toughest division. I'll give him over nine games.

I'll give him over nine games. I'll stop that defense. I wouldn't better check on that. I wouldn't better check that he would win over nine games this year.

It's what he talked about. The Ravens, the Steelers and who's the other thing that you're raving still is a bangles. I'm going to go to the ball. The best of all, the reason why I have him at 10 is because he got all that telling the world and shit with it.

The Marjax and literally saved his job. I think we all forget that and he has been coasting ever since then. Look at his record without Lamar. Look at his record with Lamar and he's on the last leg.

I probably should have had to meet the Rams at 10, but he's another season with him. At number nine, I got Jim Harbaugh. Yes, he hasn't coached in the NFL for a while. However, he's coming off.

He's probably the hottest coach in the NFL right now coming off the national title game. And he's working with Justin Herbert who I think he's going to resurrect. So we'll see what the Chargers, Mike McDaniel. I do give him credit for what he did with two of who actually have that conversation later on.

But I do fuck with what he's done as far as his scheme. I think the Mike McCarthy disrespect should stop today because having this is one of the craziest takes you've ever had. I'm saying this because of this, bro. He has made the Cowboys relevant again.

Before Mike McDaniel is always going to be relevant. I'm talking about content. He is content wise. They have not been this relevant since Mike McCarthy got there.

Even when you talk about Jason Garrett, everybody knew Jason Garrett wasn't going to shoot. At least with Mike McCarthy. That's disgusting. Mike McCarthy, you shouldn't even have a job.

Mike McCarthy, he's got fired last year. You got him in seven. At number seven. At number seven.

I got Mike Tomlin. I do respect the fact that he's never had a losing season. However, with the quarterback played it, I saw this past week. It's the first time for everything.

Let's get to the top five. That's what everybody really cared about. Number five, of course. You got to have that.

Hey, if Mike Tomlin had the last three seasons like Zach Taylor, he'll be number two on my list. At number four, Gucci Mainland Floor. I fucked up his name as LA. I fucked up.

But Gucci Mainland Floor showed me a lot last year. Not only turned around, not only the QB room, but the whole team. I put that a lot on Matt Leforra, like the culture he built in Green Bay. He could be like how Mike McCarthy was as far as going from a one-holic favorite and coach of another Hall of Famer.

As far as Brett Farne to Aaron Rodgers, I think Aaron Rodgers to Jordan Love could be interesting. I got to get respect with Kyle Shanahan. He's been to multiple Subo's in the last four seasons. Been to multiple NFC title games in the last four seasons as well.

That's the last thing you'll hear me say as far as the praise I give him. Sean McVave, I think he's underrated. Even after winning the Subo against my bingles, I think that this upcoming season we'll see who Real Sean McVave is. He was able to rally that Rams team that's been dealing with a lot of injuries and is getting older now.

So I think this may be his last hurrah with this iteration of the Rams. But I think he'll do a lot of, he made Pukka Nokka whatever the good name is, a great no star receiver. So that just goes to show you that his system is great. And number one, of course, you got to have Andy Reid.

Back to back Subo goals. If he wins another one, he's the first coach of three P and I think at that point, we can look at Patty saying he may get eight. If Patty, if any Reid wins the Subo, that's four. He got four Subo goals.

He could get eight, bro. And I'll just say that. But that's the top to this. That's the top to this.
