Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?

2.765 - 6.012 Unknown

Big money. The bells are ringing.

0

6.453 - 6.734 Joe

Oh, boy.

0

6.754 - 11.545 Unknown

It's a Christmas time of year for NFL teams. What is Santa delivering today?

0

12.507 - 18.18 Pomp

Limits, what do you got? Ring my bell. You like that song, Bob? Ring my bell.

0

18.2 - 20.585 Unknown

Not necessarily the way you did it, but yes, I like it.

20.605 - 33.537 Joe

Who sings that song, Bob? Wrong. Rick James. Is it? Is it really? No, it is. Anita Ward sings it. Oh, Anita Ward. No relation to Hines, but this is about wide receivers. What happened?

33.797 - 45.508 Pomp

The top wide receiver on the market is staying put. Alec Pierce and the Indianapolis Colts have agreed to a four-year deal worth $116 million. Holy ostrich milk.

45.528 - 51.376 Unknown

So what is that per year? It's short of 30. So in 28, 29, something like that.

51.517 - 57.366 Pomp

Yeah, 116 over four years comes to 29 million. How much guaranteed limits does it say? That I have not seen yet.

Chapter 2: What major deal did Alec Pierce sign with the Colts?

68.605 - 81.439 Joe

I mean, he's one of the best deep threats around, Bob, but the past two years combined, he has 84 catches. Not that I wouldn't have wanted him, but doesn't that number stand out to you? He's basic. Is he a one-trick pony?

0

81.773 - 99.114 Unknown

Well, if that's his trick, he does it very well. I mean, they obviously respected it. And if you look at the videos about his catches, they're all really good catches. He goes up in coverage, tight coverage, double team coverage sometimes and makes plays. Yeah, I agree. Really good wide receiver.

0

99.254 - 120.163 Joe

I agree. He is. It's just the scarcity of catches is notable, but he makes the most of six touchdowns, 1,000 yards, 1,000 yards on 47 catches. How many guys have ever had 1,000 yards on less than 50 catches, Bob? Wrong. Seven. No, actually, I don't know. No, it's not many. There can't have been that many limits.

0

Chapter 3: How does Alec Pierce's contract compare to other wide receivers?

120.183 - 121.866 Joe

Can you look that up? No, there cannot be many.

0

122.106 - 140.252 Pomp

Also, our guy Fake John and Robinson points this out on Twitter. With them giving this contract to Pittman, or with them giving this contract to Pierce, that might mean that Michael Pittman is on the trade market, Bob. Don't you think? With Daniel Jones' money, Jonathan Taylor's getting paid. They just paid Pierce. Is Pippen going to get traded?

0

140.272 - 145.077 Unknown

They're putting a lot of their money into offense, that's for sure, and they may want to get out from under some of that. That could be.

0

145.418 - 164.498 Joe

Bob, I have an answer to my question. Players with fewer than 50 catches and 1,000 receiving yards in the past 35 years. Alec Pierce in 2025. If you give me one of the two others, and I'll give you each one guess, Donnie gets a steak dinner. So do you, Limits.

0

165.406 - 169.751 Pomp

I'm going to say, so, Bob, it has to be a receiver with minimal catches but big plays.

170.051 - 174.155 Joe

Yeah. I'm going to say Lin Swan. No, in the last 35 years. Last 35 years.

175.016 - 177.739 Unknown

Well, I mean, he only played nine years and all his catches were down the field.

177.759 - 183.425 Pomp

I don't know what his. Josh Cribs. Wrong. Was that a good guess?

184.186 - 202.043 Unknown

Not really. Bob? I'm going to say last 30 years, 35 years. Yeah. Wrong. Just wait a minute. Devin Hester? No. Is Detroit an answer that I'm looking for?

Chapter 4: What are the implications of Alec Pierce's contract for the Colts' roster?

328.498 - 330.32 Joe

What was the dead cap hit there, Bob?

0

330.701 - 344.281 Unknown

Well, they're going to pay him $99 million over the next two years for not playing down there. That's pretty crazy. So their entire dead cap is off the charts. They don't have any money to really go moving forward.

0

344.722 - 351.692 Joe

Did you see where the Browns are reworking or have reworked Deshaun Watson's deal? He might be their quarterback this year.

0

352.092 - 371.757 Unknown

I wouldn't be surprised. I mean, they paid all that money. They're getting zero for him. You may as well give him a shot, especially if you don't have many answers there. They could also draft someone. They have, what is it, the sixth overall pick, Cleveland? If so, if they believe that somebody like Ty Simpson is worth it, I would not be shocked if they drafted a quarterback there.

0

373.458 - 391.614 Joe

All right. Other news. We already knew that Max Crosby, that trade for two first round picks. And we have Travis Kelsey telling the Chiefs he's back for a 14th year. Oh, boy. Actually, I mean, he can still play, right? That's the thing. Looked like it last year.

391.634 - 396.581 Unknown

Yeah, but I don't know about that. I mean, you're getting a tight end who can still go out there and do something.

396.722 - 400.527 Joe

Bob, he had 76 catches for 851 yards and five TDs.

400.567 - 414.828 Unknown

But they also didn't have a whole bunch of other options that they were utilizing as much as him. He became the favorite of Mahomes, and he always has been. What's that, Bob? That's your computer talking back to you. Can you shut it off, please? That was Travis Kelsey talking to me.

415.889 - 419.074 Joe

Bob, you can't just say that. He still had a productive year.
