NFL Free Agency Team Stock Up/Down + RB Carousel | Chris Simms Unbuttoned (FULL Ep 597) | NFL on NBC

[@connoreasterday306]

Love the Simms and CR pods! Need more of this throughout draft season! Would love to see them have actual back-and-forths about disagreements over prospects. Connor doesn't need to play Mr. Polite Host all the time lol

[@genethedancinmachine5483]

Ahmed is great too.

[@connoreasterday306]

Oh 100% I love Ahmed

[@CoachNickGaming]

Connor x Chris podcast more, please we all want that collaboration 🎉 🏈

[@cbalexander4444]

Lamar was often under center at Louisville. Don’t understand why Ravens don’t take advantage of that experience.

[@ezdozit3463]

Great show!! @NFL on NBC needs to keep these guys together. Great minds, great delivery. Like minds.

[@trevorsteadman1322]

Connor and Simms reunion is amazing. I miss the old podcast days.

[@joshchatham8937]

Simms keeps saying Mario Addison whenever Minnesota is brought up. Did Jordan Addison change his name since Monday?

[@trevorsteadman1322]

When you’ve been around football so long it’s easy to mix up so many players with the same last name.

[@kelseywhite3014]

All black people look alike

[@michaelfranzosa158]

Love the pod! I don’t get the Ahmed hate tho, Connor knows football better but both are solid hosts IMO

[@keenannash2947]

@23:55 Goff and Russ both won on rookie deals... the criticism about winning with Kirk isn't just about his ability as a QB... it's about the cost as well.

[@charlesaskew8619]

plus Russ averaged 4k total yards and 26.5 tds on like 8 interceptions. for the superbowl runs.

[@shawnsharer5003]

I always listen to Chris Simms, even if I'm not listening to sports, I end up on Simms

[@ThickBanana]

"Tannehill was a great deep ball thrower" - Chris Simms. lol

[@buildabankworkshopsinfinit5817]

Great point about Manning and Wilson

[@MrTheKmac]

Dad's heading to Atlanta, bring those kids in line and turn potential into production.

I wonder how Jefferson is feeling in Minnesota today... after talking about a 2k season next year.

[@Yankeehorseman]

Nice Liberace jacket Connor.

[@schwenk4real]

Can we just be real saquon had 1 good year how we still living off that hype

[@johnnybeatmaker330]

The kirk cousins glazing was nasty today. Bro said he was better than Alex Smith with a straight face 😂. Kirk is literally a poor man's Alex Smith

[@Mercenarymn]

The Raiders are trying to go QB by committee. Holy fuck, they're going to struggle to score.

[@JohnWilliams-wz9vk]

Henry .and Lamar. You stack the box. Both out with injuries. By game 5

[@paulpj]

Vikings paying nothing to the cap at QB?? Kirk has a $28 million dollar cap hit this season. Stuff like this is why I question things Chris says

[@shanechristopherson7582]

Yup

[@dustdevil9614]

If Love really is the real deal him and Josh could be magic

[@user-zq9ml6ot8u]

Kwesi praying Kirk doesn't do good

[@anthonyblakely399]

I disagree with Simms with the Vikings....the money was an issue. They had to let Kirk Cousins go.

[@NicolasWathelet]

loved Gibson but he fumbled too much. It's a low risk, high reward to take Ekeler with this contract

[@TonyStark-j7q]

Ravens picking up Henry on top of the possibility of the Ravens learning there lesson ( Lamar and run game is key ) the hard way last year. Scary. They the only team that could stop a Three peat. Chiefs baby!!!

[@trevorsteadman1322]

Yeah the fact they would rather throw the ball 500 times to a gassed Flowers, Agholor, Bateman, and OBJ against 5 man boxes is concerning. They seem to revert to a different team every year in the playoffs. Hopefully this allows them to stay more themselves.

[@larrylindgren9484]

Problem is you still have Jackson at QB and his awesome playoff play. Of sorry I meant his terrible playoff play. MVP so what. He's the problem. He can't throw from the pocket when it matters.

[@julioarce229]

​@@larrylindgren9484 Like Josh Allen & Herbert...When its playoffs time...💩💩💩

[@chetjablonski1993]

This is hilarious! The Bills & Bengals are the only teams in the AFC that can go toe to toe with KC in the playoffs. Why? QB play. Lamar is lost in the sauce in the playoffs. Ravens don’t match up well with KC, Buffalo or Cincy in the playoffs. Just not dynamic nor creative enough to combat the gap at QB vs those teams.

[@chetjablonski1993]

@@julioarce229are you simple???? Josh Allen actually plays well in the playoffs unlike LJ or Herbert. Herbert & LJ have a combined 3 playoff wins together. Allen himself has 5 already.

[@danieldarling2307]

He's a top 10 QB every single year

[@dodu8281]

cmac effect, thats all it is. all the rbs would thank shanahan and christian for this.

[@Countdeezmilswitme]

Facts

[@scottrowlandrowland1098]

More like it's a crappy rb draft class, rbs have been devalued so they are cheap and more teams play a 2 high shell with lighter linebackers. I don't feel like any of those guys have cmac skillset.

[@Countdeezmilswitme]

@scottrowlandrowland1098 RBs got paid what do you mean? Saquan, Pollard, Henry, Jacob's, Gus Edward's

[@scottrowlandrowland1098]

@@Countdeezmilswitme well they all got paid like between 5 to 8 mil per year besides saquon who got 13. High end rbs were getting paid over 15 mil, 5 years ago. Their market value has went down and the cap went up so it's good value to sign them now so that's what I mean. Other big player makers like wr are getting double that.

[@Countdeezmilswitme]

@scottrowlandrowland1098 that's true. Especially with the cap going up I feel that.

[@FlintGiven]

Hard to say Ravens have good O-line when we don't know who most of the O-line is going to be atm.

[@jeffreyreichert3112]

True that. Hear all the analysts saying that, but we will have a lot to figure out there.

[@trevorsteadman1322]

Correct but I can’t remember the most recent season the Ravens o line was just as bad or worse than the Titans the past 2 years. I can’t imagine it will be that bad even with 3 new starters.

[@FlintGiven]

@@trevorsteadman1322 I dont really agree tge Ravens line was bad in 2023, but otherwise, yeah, that was my point.

[@anthonyblakely399]

Javon is okay when he's healthy. Oliver is very slow as a CB. Not very good against the run. He blows coverages a lot. And they need a strong O-line.

[@gtowngtown1601]

I wondered what had happened to Spider after he got shot in the foot. 😁

[@anthonyblakely399]

I disagree. You can't win prime time or SuperBowl with Kirk Cousins. One main reason is Kirk doesn't put in the extra work to get teams or himself to win in the playoffs or the SuperBowl. The Falcon will be competitive but injuries and mishaps will be their Achilles Heal.

[@cherrylee2767]

@@chadclark321 fuck fields, he can’t throw the ball for shit, what if we keep him and he shits the bed again then what? The qb class next year is not good so we would be stuck and his contract is coming up, we can still pick Caleb at 1 then get a wr at 9, our defense is already elite, that’s a playoff team right there

[@Jay-i4s7b]

Give away the number 1 pick and not get another first round? You tripping?

Crazy that Sam Howell is actually not that bad. The NFL is savage. They’ll just throw you to the wolves if you’re not Tom Brady overnight.

[@warpeace8891]

Great job again guys, thanks for sharing. There is too much turnover in the NFL. I don't think it is healthy for the competition. It is bad for the teams and the players and the fans. The only winners from this ridiculous amount of turnover every season is the media.

Conor so much better than ahmed

Wrong Ahmed is the best

Ahmed is a host. Conor is an analyst.

[@ludabam241]

They both cool with me Connor does know ball tho

[@chinchilla2037]

No way. Conner is great, but I like Chris and Ahmed’s chemistry more. Simms and Lefkoe was the best tho

[@mattyjoe4264]

Kirk is old AF and coming off a horrific injury # overpaid

[@Thehumblegorilla]

As a falcons fan, Chris deep throating Kirko this whole show makes me feel good.

[@mikehouse68]

How the FUCK is Kirk better than Alex Smith ? WTF has he done that Smith didn't ? I'll tell you what he did do... he WON BIG games and Playoff Games. I'd say this... Alex Smith was a BETTER version of Cousins. The Falcons are Pathetic spending that for him.... they will NOT win ANYTHING with him. The Viking gave him EVERY chance to succeed... and NOTHING.

How do yqll not mention the packers?

Bears go edge at 9 or trade back and go edge or 3t. They've paid guys on D and will pay Brisker in a year or 2. Gotta get a rookie contract stud to go with the guys you payed

[@FrederickHolmes-hz2hs]

Why don't Minnesota sign Joe Flacco for one season

[@larrylindgren9484]

Because if you do you are saying you don't want to win.

[@codyb.3015]

Colts got him last night.

[@emancash6743]

Yeah simms more we need more Connor. Ahmed is family but he’s no where near the level of knowledge of Connor. Like you guys brought up Derrick Henry. And this guy Connor already had Ravens rush splits % loaded up. lol he’s legit bro. I been watching Pff since 2016 so I been knew him. Ahmed is hilarious he’s awesome but this is what I’m talking about right here. Even paul b was more knowledgeable. Of course

[@bradleystraley6165]

The Jets are consistently one of the dumbest franchises in football. I don't mind the bargain shopping, I think every team should take low risk swings on big upside. The rare smart move from them, in my mind. What I mind is the inability to put so much as a league average offensive line together. I mind getting jumped for an OT in the draft and then panic picking a pass rusher - which is then used as justification for letting one of the 5 best pass rushers in the league go.... For absolutely nothing. But hey, at least we've got Allen Lazard-McDonald IV to save us

[@Biz613]

Vikings are taking JJ McCarthy at 8. Darnold is better than Russ Wilson. Russ is washed 😂

[@real-ishstraighttruthnocha1687]

Darnold never was. Dude still seeing ghosts 5 years later lol

[@NathanWestergreen-o6w]

Nah… Falcons pick at 8… They just signed Kirk, so not at 8…

[@larrylindgren9484]

Better to see what the team does the year after year 2. It's when the contracts get spendy and teams cut guys to save money. The first year of most contracts are cheap and get bigger every year after. A 1-year bump to a year 3 salary dump more like it. Building your team by FA isn't good. You have to overpay to get guys. Add a piece ok. But adding 5 it never works long term before it's become salary cut mode.

[@silenttoxic707]
