But they also got rid of Geno Smith.
They traded him to the Raiders.
And right after they traded him to the Raiders, John Schneider then signed Sam Darnold to that three-year, $110 million deal with $55 million guaranteed.
I would say that you think about getting rid of DK Metcalf.
You're like, why are you doing that?
And then you get rid of Geno Smith.
Why are you doing that?
Well, because he had to go in a different direction with a new coach.
And he decided to clean out the locker room as best he could.
And he ended up adding a couple of guys and creating a new defense and adding an offensive coordinator that brought the best out of the new quarterback.
Yeah, and another part of this, too, we talk a lot about Sam Darnold and the Jets not hanging on to him and the Vikings not hanging on to him, and here he is.
So if you talk to any Ravens fans, they're pissed off because it's like, hey, you're going to fire.
John Harbaugh got fired maybe a couple years too late because you had a guy on the staff here, and Mike McDonald, who could have taken over, and now he's got his team in the Super Bowl.
Yeah, well, Jesse Minter was on that staff.
You know, he ends up getting the Ravens job.
I thought he was going to be in line for the Raiders job, and maybe he was.
But, you know, he obviously has the understanding of the inner workings of the Ravens.
And I would think that maybe Clint Kubiak has got to be kind of like the leader in the clubhouse because they haven't said anything.
And here he's got to go for another two weeks now preparing for the Super Bowl.
Yeah, I was really surprised that the Steelers ended up hiring Mike McCarthy.
