Rich needs to have klatt on more often.
Every Wednesday on the Colin Cowturd show
dude klatts analogy for the Chargers was so well phrased
Klatt with the marriage analogy like he's on his son Cowherd's show lmao
The cowherd daddy references always kill me 😂 my favorite part of the week
No, Cowherd is hid dad, not his son...
Atlanta's decision is easy to understand when Phil Emery and Ryan Pace (previous two GMs for the Bears) are in the Atlanta front office.
As a Bears fan, glad we have Poles now and not those two lol
@@alexamerling79fr poles is a godsend 😭
Bears will still
Be trash Caleb will be a bust
@@Gregorianthunder Ok Nostradamus, who will not be a bust at QB?
Solid dude, I’m gonna look out for Joel again. Get him on again soon
his show is great
Klatt is the best college football analyst
Joel Klatt has grown on me in the last half decade. Hope he’s on TRE show more
I still can't believe we ended up with Caleb AND Rome. BEAR DOWN!
That going to the club while married analogy was really good lol
Bottom line is you don’t sign a QB 180 millions dollars just to draft a QB who’s pro ready!!! That’s dead money. If I’m Mr. Blank I’m pissed man
Why should Cousin’s care? He is getting paid, he should be professional enough to not take this personally IMO.
Then maybe you don't have a competitive spirit. He's trying to live out a dream. Something most people can't understand.
Because Kirk wants to win a Super Bowl and drafting my replacement instead of the top defensive player doesn’t help the team win. However Kirk made them pay top dollar, so I get that side of the argument too. If he REALLY wanted to win, he could’ve signed with them for the min and opened up another 30 mil in cap for them
Or draft him a top-tier weapon. Cousins could have had Bowers, or a top-tier WR...
Because Football and money are not Cousin's highest priority. Cousin's took the Atl job under the pretense that if he played like he did in Min he would retire there. This pick shows that entire pretense was a lie. If you a job and they pitched to you "come here, lay down roots, join our community" and then hired your replacement before day 1, you'd be ok with that?
There not 1 player away. 1 person from the draft chances are isnt going contribute very much for few years anyways. Look up stats. How many wrs are bust in 1st round. N now with cousins u wont be drafting high anymore so get qb while u can instead of drafting 20-32 now at best and have to have another 4-5 years with no qb after kirk or if god for bid he gets injured like rodgers did
Klatt - The Giants have 3 QBs with varied NFL experience. You think they should add an unproven 4th? Last time they played the vaunted Vikings, DJ ended their season & sent them home. Last I heard, the Giants kicked the Eagles face in & Drew Lock torched them. Explain how the G-Men are diminished by adding Malik Nabers to their roster. Take your time... I have all day.
I enjoy Klatt's viewpoint more than anyone else. The guy is a natural.
How come the volume for the ads, is much better then the clip?
When Kirk Cousins goes down in week 6 with a leg injury, the Penix pick will make a lot of sense!
If the Falcons think Kirk Cousins is going to go down, then they shouldn’t have given him 100 million guaranteed. Simple as.
@@box3yTHANK YOU
@@box3y INJURIES STILL HAPPEN ! LMAO ✌️😂😂😂
Right! And since when is it bad to have two qbs?
@@mr.phister2092 absolutely NOTHING wrong with having two QB’s. And yes we understand injuries happen, but that still doesn’t mean you pay a QB 100+ million dollars when he’s a short term deal.
You’re married. You don’t go to the club and you’re not single 😂
They took Penix with 8th pick...its not like they were picking 26th and a Super Talent fell down to them and they could not help themselves...they did it with #8...so they KNEW what they were gonna do...which makes even less sense 5 weeks after going out and getting Cousins.
Love klatt. Ineed rich and Collin together
Spot on Joel
Why are people acting Kirk cousins was taking the falcons to the super bowl?! Surprising pick for sure but Kirk 36 when season start getting a QB to replace him in a year or two ain’t crazy.
Then you (a) don't pick him up and (b) don't strap a bale of 1000-dollar-bills to his back.
As a Chargers fan I am elated and can't wait to see how day 3 unfolds. My daughter is a Bears fan...she is so used to disappointment that she has no idea what's happening to that team. They are going to be explosive on offense.
And the Chargers have been the picture perfect model of success??
Klatt said it perfectly, if I'm Penix i'm pissed off too. I don't get to play until i'm 28 or 29? Those are brandon weeden rookie age years. wtf
There’s something special about Penix. With his faith in God, I believe he will be successful in the NFL.
Bud. Penix turns 24 next month. Kirks contract is 2 years guranteed. Which means he playing the 2024 and 2025 seasons. He will be cut, traded, or simply sit before the 2026 season. Penix will be Atlanta's starting QB for the 2026 season in which he will be a fresh 26 years old
atlanta see's what GB did with rodg and love. want to try and replicate it. also klatt is great! keep him on Rich
The Giants did right in drafting a receiver although I would have taken Bowers…..JJ McCarthy is not going to beat out Jones or Drew Lock….Giants could not win the Super Bowl even if Mahomes was the QB ….they have too many holes
The real question is what is that we do not know about Cousins that the coach and the GM know. This is likely the only way this pick can be explained. Perhaps they are not expecting Cousins to be 100%. Also, is there any "escape" clause in the Cousins contract we are not aware of......
Wow Klatt advising Penix not to sign…….
Don’t the analysts always say that being able to sit is the best situation for a qb?
Yeah when the qb is a baby, not when its a 26 year old man
Jim Harbaugh could be what Marty Schottenheimer and Bobby Ross were to the charger in terms of smash mouth football style. Both coaches were successful in their running game which had a featured running back, wide receiver and a tight end. Curious to see if this team is going to be by committee type or will there be some players standing out.
You wouldve thought it was Klatt's money or his career
Folks for those of you criticizing the Penix pick do we really believe Cousins is leading this team to a super bowl even with a first round pick I don't think so
he was acquired to get them to the playoffs so they can build for the future which is what they did by singing Penix.
You'll get there. Sometimes things have to sink in to be understood. He isn't going to be sitting long. These guys never do. Michael will have no trouble proving himself. He already has. He wants to play; don't think he doesn't plan to be ready for the moment. He has faith, confidence, and he believes that there is a great reason for him to be there. Don't be responsible for dragging in controversy. Michael is very positive and awesome overall. Give it its due. Michael is part of a plan.
That's all well and good....Heck, I even believe you. So, then explain strapping your team with the cap-hit on Cousins. Makes ZERO sense. Dumbest move in NFL off-season history.
Hey Joel, you’re on the Rich Eisen Show who has done the draft in person 18 years and total of 21 with the NFL Media Group…….ha ha
first thing i said when i learned the falcons took penix, HIS AGE/EXPERIENCE, if any qb doesn't need to sit for 2 to 4 years it is him, he will be 24 on 5/8, so he will a 26/28 year old first year player when he might finally get a chance to be QB1, and even with the fact that 66 qb's started games in 2023, you don't spend a 1st rounder on the chances that your starter may get hurt
The Falcons absolutely tanked their situation.
Awful defense and bad offensive playcalling kept them from being competitive. They hopefully fixed the latter, Cousins plus those weapons is really really solid. But they had their PICK of every defensive talent. Unreal.
Has a Giants fan, the only push back I would have is.. OK! Lets say we draft a QB, JJ for example, than what?!
We still have zero weapons and our O-line is still horrible. Why not draft a weapon and draft for a QB next year if we stink but we have to give a rookie back a weapon to throw too.
Pretty much this was a damned if you do/damned if you do pick.
Either you draft JJ at 6 and get roasted for "OMG why reach? He hasn't shown he has the ability to carry a team with his arm! Should have picked Nabers or Odunze!"
Or you draft the one of the best (possibly THE best as its a tossup between Nabers and MHJ) WR1 and you now have a legit threat from all over the field...... then you get the "OMG JJ was there at 6 WTF are they doing??? We need a QB!!"
Nabers was always the right choice. And if DJ doesn't work out, they'll play Drew Lock and more than likely draft their franchise QB next year (if he continues elevating his play) Carson Beck is a likely target.
I don't know what he's talking about. The Giants are drafting top five next year and the year after. Might as well get good weapons for their quarterback of the future and replace their defense. If they would have drafted a quarterback last night who's he going to throw to? Who's going to block for him?
If this is true the GM should have been fired already
I don't understand his position on the Giants. If we draft JJ, a QB who by his running game, not exactly putting the team on his back.....how is he supposed to succeed on a Giants team with no skill players and just lost Saquan Barkley? JJ was never the pick for us
Was carried*
Couldn’t agree more. Drafting JJ would have made no sense. Everyone’s instinct is to just punt on a QB these days. Of the 6 QBs in the top 12 maybe 2 work out.
@@StripedBass-vq6vz Exactly, I forsee GMs getting fired behind reaching on some of these QBs
We are now in Round 4 and the Giants haven't drafted a single OL. THEY NEVER LEARN.
He reminds Falcons of Michael Vick.
They drafted Penix for the playoffs
I keep hearing how it “worked for Green Bay.” How? Where is the Lombardi? MVP isn’t a Lombardi.
Rodgers has won a single Super Bowl, so I suppose it was worth it. How many SB's has the Falcons, Vikings, Bengals, Bills won? Zero. I'm sure those teams would do anything for just one single SB win. I'm not saying the Falcons strategy is sound, matter of fact I think it's bad. I would be somewhat mad if I was Penix, as he could potentially not play for 2-3 years. But in the end, whatever you do as a team, if it results in a SB win, it was worth it. Rams come to mind recently, pushing all the chips in to get a win.
There is a difference between the situations. GB when they drafted Rodgers and Love were a pretty good team. They also took those guys at 27 and 26. Atlanta just signed a win now QB for $100 guaranteed on a team with defensive holes and then drafted a QB ready to play at 8. I don’t get it, but we will see how it works out.
Black HC. Black GM. Black QB. Is anyone really surprised?
I think Cousins running his mouth and not working Tuesdays caused Mr. Blank to say, "Maybe we made a mistake."
“PULL YOURSELVES UP BY THE BOOTSTRAPS AND STOP PLAYING VICTIM ALL THE TIME !” LMAO ✌️😭😭😭
Your point?
@@TheJossache86 Stevie wonder can see my point.
I guess
I was thinking Klatt would be ANOTHER one of these talking heads coming up with Nonsense reasons to justify Falcons taking Penix...glad he didn't and spoke the truth.
What do people see in JJ McCarthy? I don't understand it. So you reach for him, Penix, or Nix. Then what? So you want the Giants reach on average QBs, and set them back for another five years. Who is fooling who here?
Was my take exactly. Maybe they didn’t grade any of the other QB’s high. And this was their plan. Outside DJ their last few drafts have been with plans. Yes Neal sucks. Ok everyone thought he was going to be good. The giants have actually drafted well and may have the best young WR room in the nfl.
It’s a Purdy 2.0 scenario where you have everything set as far as weapons and coaching and their task is to throw on time and accurate while scrambling when it’s open. Don’t need the QB to be superhero in these scenarios
What do people see in Caleb Williams? Seriously? What did he do in his Heisman year? What big game did they win? What happened when the dude goes 7-5 the next year? His team got slapped around in a weak confidence.
No one can tell how someone will do in the NFL. At least Mccarthy won. Williams didn't.
@@dirtymikesnow What did Patrick Mahomes win at Texas Tech? Aaron Rodgers and Jared Goff at Cal? Brock Purdy at Iowa State? Josh Allen at Wyoming? These are QBs who have won big games and taken teams deep into playoff runs. Do you know who won at college? Tim Tebow. Tommy Frazier. Danny Wuerrfel. Troy Smith. Ken Dorsey. Charlie Ward. Just to name a few. Just because you win in college, doesn't mean you'll win in the NFL. Plain and simple.
@cityhawk there have been plenty of quarterbacks who won in college bring that to the NFL. Do you need me to list a few of them? So when you ask what people see in JJ Mccarthy; my answer is that he wins. Plain and simple. Caleb Williams is a weak minded drama queen, who didn't win anything. Imo
The Penix pick had Ryan Pace fingerprints all over it. Sign a guy who can take over until the rookie is ready. He tried it with Glennon and Trubisky. Tried it again with Fields and Dalton.
Finally somebody speaking some facts and not afraid of the stupid blow back. Such a crap draft pick
Ok... what is Cousins gets injured? What if he decides to retire early?
The only reason in my opinion for that pick is there is new news on Kirk Cousins health. May be?
If you are strong in your conviction when you choose someone in the trade you don't have to explain NADA just say hey that's what we want so screw you but the more you try to justify and explain why you did something the more it makes me feel that you don't know what the hell you're doing...
Joel should coach
Finally Joe Klatt makes SENSE,.
Falcons made the WORST PICK IN NFL HISTORY when considering the situation...
PERIOD~
When this works out then it will become the standard this is why so many teams fail they are afraid of the narrative and they are afraid to Innovate great job Atlanta.
Elaborate please on how "this" works out.
@@michaelmoss5976 Atlanta with kirk cousins last year make the playoffs they are playoff ready without Penix in 2 yrs when they transition they will be good for the next 10yrs watch and see. Plus they have 6 other rounds of players who will contribute.
@@michaelmoss5976 Plus teams are going to blitz Cousins to test the achilles to see if it holds up if he goes down where is Atlanta without Penix back in the cellar.
@@mustangs263 Was there another response that didn't post? "Plus" indicates that this is the second answer.
Look, I get what everyone trying to defend this pick is saying. Pick Penix...he fell right into your lap(s). But, 5 weeks ago, you signed a veteran for a wheelbarrowful of money. By signing his backup, you didn't help your team for 2024. UNLESS. Unless, Cousins either forgets how to play football or gets seriously injured...in which case, then you shouldn't have signed him at all. The two moves are in direct contrast to one another.
@@michaelmoss5976 Atlanta with Kirk Cousins last year would have made the playoffs in there weak division so with Penix or not Atlanta this year is going to make the playoffs
plus there are 6 rounds of other picks that will help this years team win now. Also in one year or two Penix can take over the franchise for the next 10 yrs and finally give them the stability they need. How is this bad for the franchise?
I enjoy Klatt but i disagree with his take
When KLATT talks, real football fans with knowledge, turn the channel or turn it off🤦♂️
I am a big fan of Raheem.
Yall media guys get on my nerves. I mean a team can't draft for their future just bc YOU GUYS wanted them to draft someone else? You act like cousins is Tom Brady. He ain't done shyt in this league
So no video of Rich's reaction to the Jets trading down?
Not much to talk about. They called up Minnesota and put pressure on them to trade up one spot. They netted a pick and grabbed the guy they wanted.
Namely Green Bay? Namely KC. You now say he was the most pro-ready. He was not projected as a first rounder by any of you clowns. The problem is that so amny teams want their QB to play right away. That's a stupid position to take.
So stupid when they say a player is generational. Last time I checked Mahomes and Josh are still young players. Is Caleb better than them? Idiotic.
Penix is injury prone and now a millionaire backup!! What is the problem?
The marriage analogy is not logically accurate, nice try.
Kirk is 37 coming off an injury, also if these guys actually researched his contract they would see that his deal is really only a 2 year deal. Next year is a weak QB draft and because Kirk deal is really only a 2 year deal when you remove the fluff they would be drafting a QB next year anyway so why not get a Elite prospect now while your in the top 8! It was a good pick and these guys will look like idiots in 2 years . They act like Kirk Cousins Mahomes or something 😂😂😂 FOH ..
Brutal assessment
Joel Klatt - Who says they didn't have a plan? Kirk C is 36 coming of an injury. Chances of him getting injured at some point this year probably 15-20%. This is a good fit for Penix - He's likely to get some playing time, and if he's solid, Atlanta can move on from Cousins in a couple of years and pick up some draft choices & yes I konw he has a no-trade contract.
"Years of disappointment" for Michigan fans? 1st or 2nd in Big 10 EVERY YEAR. EVERY. FUCKING.YEAR. In a bowl game EVERY YEAR. In the playoffs a couple times (all before winning the big 1). Yeah, right...."disappointment." Like the "disappointment" when the Patriots make it to the Super Bowl for the 7,000th time in a row and OOPS, they LOSE. "Disappointing."
Try being the Jets. Or Illinois, or Indiana, or Rutgers. Then tell me how Michigan suffers "years of disappointment."
Cousins is a righty. Penix a lefty. You build around your QB. How can you do that in Atlanta? So dumb. Beyond dumb.
We suck because we didnt reach for JJ? This guy is laughable
😊
Joel Klatt thought Justin Field was going to be good
Joel Klatt thought Zach Wilson was 1st round material
Joel Klatt thought Kenny Pickett was the best QB from that draft
Joel Klatt thought CJ Stroud was not worth 2nd pick to Texas because of his S2 cog. score
must be nice to have these guys' jobs.. only about 50% right yet they get to keep on making money on TV
manufatered QB controversy
The giants crushed this draft…..what are you smoking?
Lazy Take from Joe
Why is everyone acting like Kirk Cousins is some kind of elite QB? 2 really good seasons and 1 playoff win in 12 years. Maybe Atlanta thought if he had some competition it might spur him on to do better than he has. I seem to remember Cousins was being bombarded by the press and fans at one time (2020?), and then he went on a winning streak. Maybe they're looking for that kind of impetus by drafting Penix.
Or maybe it was just dumb.
When 'all' of our gas-bag / talking heads 💩💩💩 on a move, it usually means...
Klatt should never be on here again
Klatt is such a clown
