So the Tomlin thing was way more interesting to me because he's younger.
I think he's a better coach than horrible.
And I think there are real reasons why he didn't succeed, which basically stemmed to the fact that he, they threw with a quarterback position for seven, eight years, ever since big Ben started to, uh, fall apart.
I guess the question with that one is.
He seemed to discount the quarterback position and never really, even like when they could have drafted Jackson Dart, like there was stuff in the draft they could have done
It feels to me, House, like he just needed a break.
I'm excited to have him on TV.
I don't know if he's going to be as good as everybody seems to think he's going to be on TV.
I reserve judgment because I think he's coming back to the league.
Those guys always scare me.
But it's like, I'll do TV, but I don't want to be too hard.
But what's your dream scenario for Tomlin House?
I mean, we just watched... How about Terrell Edmonds over Lamar Jackson?
All these are fair.
I just felt like I, I know he wasn't in charge of it, but he also had an immense amount of power.
I'm sure they didn't want him to leave the last five years.
And at some point you got to slam your fist down and be like, I can't do this again.
We shit quarterbacks.
So should I have done this after I left ESPN house?
Take a year.
