Adam Schefter

" John Dennis is not here Steve DOC from the famous Stephen fried steak house is here and joining us from ma. From Washington DC -- excellent we didn't have to wake him up on the west coast Adam chapter from NFL network --"

" Good morning -- if I just don't you were in DC. State Redick trust the White House getting ready for tonight's bears Redskins game article that."

" Have you I had any time to take the temperature of the the Redskins god knows they've been through the emotional wringer do they have a chance."

" Well a couple of things I think that. In talking to then yesterday they feel like a believer -- our our. That much better off right now that they were at this time last week. And obviously the -- just transpired that Miami because the funeral on Monday. It left Washington 60 or more -- doubt there went through a very emotional service look back to washed in and night. I think this feeling was some of the people on the -- organization right now is this that. It's actually good dinner plate and dating etiquette Sunday which is a crushing lost funeral Monday -- have another game tonight and to have everything bunched together like that. Okay you know it just take your mind of what you just went to drop Monday a little bit I mean just belittled. And then militant base hit to this I think at that point that's -- real real people probably said it."

" Right and bless. It'll give give some time the goal of the rule book."

" Yeah yeah I'll take doubt he'll read over and -- story last week at this time I got enough somebody eight. You might want to be on the look out at the Redskins are going to play the first players and they game and defenders as attribute Sean Taylor. Have you heard that you -- happening the other perspective. The stupidest thing ever heard about it do that me crazy and then of course the -- the mean -- gives fuel to people don't think."

" That was embarrassing I mean if they'd if that stopped them -- be one thing -- Cuba point two you know on the play it's not exactly."

" And the coach doesn't know about every course you don't get from being got to know about the -- coach and he doesn't know."

" So I can understand that because Gibbs might -- said we're not doing in on the probably said. We want to do this but if we tell the coach you you won't let us."

" I well I don't know that he would -- them but it took me it's it's these are because they take coached is supposed to know everything really how to speak E Milton -- And -- a coach doesn't know."

" Good question -- You know what Joe Gibbs might be -- limping to the finish line here of his Hall of Fame career I think last week. It's he might not costing the game -- money at the 51 yarder."

" It didn't district -- Europe especially."

" Anybody at the next 51 yard of the you know what Adam that cost gives a lot in terms of his his credibility issue in this credibility in that locker room now."

" You know what -- I think in talking to people yesterday. And I keep pedestal beat what speculation that -- leaving it this year he's done he's walking is retiring -- but wrapped bought it. But in talking to people that would that that seem to be in the know here. They believe he's -- back this year and Davis that is not a fire if they can be back next year. And it just -- me is a variation deputy what you -- December 1 at coaching carousel that search Wheeling around -- really quick you start hearing all -- distinction. And where it throws that season where the rumor starts flying in. And they get the feeling I think get this city with this particular team. Is that Joe -- expect one more year next year for fill in the last year -- contract in you know what if you'd think Snyder. Whether Joe Gibbs goes now -- yet he -- okay. I tried Norv Turner I tried Marty shot I tried Steve spurrier went back to the Redskins legends Joe just. What's going to work."

" Just clicked into -- that's who go after this question of give wait one more year in judgment davis' stays on the pages for another year. I gotta -- in the QB I'm with -- Grozny."

" I alerted I touted Josh games I believe that he's going to be I had everybody's list. And I still get this is it that direction I had that conversation with somebody last night as to. Would I coaching candidates out there. And I -- two guys judgment day OC Jason Garrett. And any -- shoot at a CG it worked out but he missed Josh Davis eyed radical -- upgraded it to run might keep. But he said no okay is everybody got their opinion okay 80 year old all the protective things I've just tell yet. The statement that I -- I thought thought about but I like it was the people who still days."

" Have you heard the cam Cameron is one and done."

" Yeah you mean aren't -- yeah."

" I mean it will only be dumped without having won the game."

" I've heard both waste if they don't -- game. It's going to be awfully hard to bring him back okay and the players came out this past week after the game two there's dissension in the locker room can't ever -- and -- play calling duties to Mike malarkey. It will work any better against the New York Jets. It's created abject failure down there and I don't know but it's camp to ever so much as some of the personnel decisions that they made over the years that you go back and look at those traps. That yielded zero -- it was in 98 to two dozen or is sort of went on the roster right. Evident that that's any excuse to accept that that debt now that was. Dallas camp caverns divide topic it had been -- just -- very well we go back it was almost two years ago. And have revealed some tracking polls just she's in the that the -- is a busy season it. And there was the big decision that the dolphins at. -- wanted to go to Miami in the worst way and -- that Culpepper want to go to Miami and the dolphins at their choice of quarterbacks. Neither ward and everything else at that particular point time. They the bullpen guys did a physical extensive interviews at nick Sabin. And they made their choice to pick Daunte Culpepper and minutes later they gave -- that they didn't say anybody in order. Destroy troop regional leverage with the states they waited two hours to make it out spent. So that Drew -- so to change because nobody else that have wanted to believe or not if they doubt which Drew Brees at that point. This franchise should be a different state and different spot than it is today."

" Sure would bring you do when you look back a bit that sent to school coaching staff last year north tersely that 75 right now what are they find a way to miss the playoffs."

" Well that's ridiculous it usually that division -- guys -- for a while they were tried to give it away and they really were they were they were struggling in his. Absolutely I really great speed the charges coming to Foxboro -- like between the postseason. I mean -- I don't look at them as a real threat right now and you go back taking it would repeat the culture after the game. Norv Turner goes over to being intelligent and that was game which they went up 23 that they they'd still what sort of all the rain I don't understand that. And with -- which is your -- like or get away from have Cadillac -- right now and I just don't think everything -- in San Diego just yet and I think that. They will win that division because nobody else is good enough to win it but I don't have any great speed and said he would do it the players and despite the fact that AJ Smith mr. matchup north safety not going anywhere. If they don't want to play basketball Marty shot after they finished deceit in 97 -- what the division seven wherever there's. I'm not convinced that he -- will be back --"

" Hey I want to get to your latest column you're here on line column Adam about a scientists handled the first to have to give give more credit to NFL network I -- whiners out there including. A number on the station. You guys really provided the service last -- you -- the patriots game with little cutting -- with Mike Pereira. Break it down all the you know controversial plays. I don't see one where the ravens players have a legitimate gripe."

" Knowing you know it's funny that there holding call that a court argued in the -- you could watch it -- it's highlighted the deep. He's being held down the field."

" Amelia beyond five yards please he's held all the way to the end zone and that point at that point he gets interfered with."

" Absolutely if you want to say that the -- hit the hypothetical to appear secure the patriots first goal the want. --"

" I think it's that there are such conspiracy that you don't like this conspiracy here I have to laugh at this because. It's there it's there was a conspiracy published. Why weren't all the holes but it's Wes Welker made early in the game -- was getting all out there okay now that was called and he was getting. But at least eight at what he'll about the fact when operators know what that it's -- yet hostility come down and nobody -- Baltimore exit off. Bolton or had a chance to win that game each other -- it didn't okay credit the patriots. They day our clutch and they are lucky that's a pretty tough combination."

" is that surprising that a team a deep -- in particular that prides themselves like the ravens on being so tough and so physical and -- that the that the end up. -- whining about about stuff like this after the game is a little bit strange that that doesn't relieved that with their image."

" Well put -- this east basically dispel the rent a couple like NC every don't think you can get a he's like that they they were beating up the patient receivers all night long that's the way -- so you can't beat about. And I expect that no Cole's report be made against you know just not the way it works."

" Let alone a little over as a team that's only beat -- with the ram before -- cardinals on the jets."

" It that -- that they've -- giving is it again. He can catapult me to get people into golf and they get cold sketchy to wait about."

" I think there and I mentioned -- to bring us that they they took the old Detroit Pistons approach of it will foul them on every play right they can't call the mall I mean the officials can't call -- penalties. And they called some of them they didn't call mall I think they have to accept the fate. I think billick did billick to his credit. Aside from blowing a kiss didn't you know sitting in the stupid didn't go off -- didn't throw a tantrum. Bart Scott on the other hand is probably going to be. Fine by you know. What what will happen about Scott."

" Well you know nobody thought he'll be fine smart road five -- surprise -- Chris mcalister outside of Peoria I don't know -- a little bit out there -- a game in 1998. -- but -- Monday night game. In Kansas City that -- 37 on the final touchdown drive where the game is getting out of and derrick Thomas in -- Simmons to -- linebackers at the time. Kirk five personal felt penalties on that last drive on that it was among -- no -- that really remind him on the title and the next day. The cheeks waved when he Simmons they suspended derrick Thomas an -- after that season Marty Schottenheimer resigned. I will not be surprised if at the end of the season. Don't ravens decide to part ways with Brian billick and they look back at Monday night as being the final straw"

" the patriots do they don't beat teams they ruin them. A."

" It you know what that after they'd be washed and washed would never quite the same -- that."

" It'll as far as Brian billick goes kids -- The blame the front office for never filed not quite a quarterback in nine years."

" Well you know what don't -- never blame Baltimore -- office right lead up to me if you look back of their first round picks they've they've hit. It just about every single time the quarterback issue Steve McNair got hurt on the second. Play of the season this year he hurt his groin to groin. Wade to back spasms eventually it left rotator cuff was bothering him. And when you go through the types of injuries in pain that he did and you know the speed figures and Warner we've seen that haven't done against. You can't expect much more from it you know he's I think he should be back to Baltimore -- year. About a player that he's going to be -- united spectators not but -- they -- and I don't disagree. That he can still be a pretty -- quarterback at some time left which it show at all this year he was awful he was terrible as people think what to -- got back but you know what. In 2005 they receive the same thing about Brett -- when he lost the final game of the year to the ravens 43 are from just retired party put out to pasture. At that were kept abreast part."

" For you you believe that that's -- they single may be the premier of the top free agent on the market this off season. Or is no way the pages can keep them is there."

" Well like it used to be up there might be other guys that would be more comedy like Albert Haynesworth. But Albert Haynesworth is to get back to not be -- from Oakland is going to get to act okay. Of the guys sworn not to act look at the market he will be their number one created out there that would. -- all this money every team has needed the quarterback position. And it hit the ball hawking skills he -- and is -- a better ball Lawton quarterback in the NFL that is opposite field but he can practically means its place."

" And that price will be out of the patriots --"

" That that's what that's not out there what -- operates that's not how they they do business so to me he's leading -- this year in west. Do you think the patriots could only have 25 million dollars in guaranteed money -- general"

" here's the question though what do they have what choice to they have. I mean if they Israeli Moscow real market to when you never know what -- going to ask."

" We're ready ready not going anywhere Randy Randy is now the bulls reasons I think -- He's found Tom Brady you start Bill Belichick is down near bought our gates he's been -- Minnesota he's been an Oakland. He's seen the dark side he does not want to go back they just want to risk that it's not worth it to him I think Randy moss stays right there he's not going anywhere."

" They have dubbed the AB a little bit on him well."

" At all absolutely not no question that I could've -- again there's no question okay -- will be a little bit about -- discount but. It's not going to be just bylines bargain basement price this year look at that knowledge to debate but it's obviously it was a different category. He never has -- okay you watch that payday. And he's determined to get it and I think the past dusty the patriots -- somewhere in the ballpark about. A 13 1415 million dollars guaranteed money. If they're going to go up deported twice about going guarantee and they got a shot at keeping him but typically that's not the -- the business before but then again. We can -- going to last offseason then making the break free agent splash just not waited they've -- business either. So they might say you know what it's opposite those quarterback that we have to have and they have I don't know what they're."

" Considering the age of their oval other defensive players and the affected you don't know what Rodney Harris is going to be doing you know that that's leaving a lot of speculation out there in terms of how good their defense can be."

" Well yeah -- 100% agreed there I mean they have got a little -- there they do it has some weaknesses anecdotal. One if there's one area that they've shown to be vulnerable but -- of the defense having to worry about losing a guy that -- that much do you eat and to me go back and look. He's been -- a difference maker in the postseason he's been a difference maker -- it to say you know what we're not at 8 am. -- somebody else's. I don't know I don't know if that's the right business decision -- they're -- to the typical once again go to pick. Whatever quarterback they want there and they have had tremendous success better success than anybody in the league at taking guys like thank you don't street stick in the mid air. Having -- Turkish shut down quarterbacks I don't know how that happened but they do that there OK I don't know that you could expect continue to keep doing that overtime --"

" All those are stopgap measures of those guys have ever been a long term solution -- young young ones rookie corner can play in the supposed to. Linebacker on."

" Takes echelon were here you think here you -- little rookie linebacker they -- don't an adult already loud back here no quarterback of special talent. Possibly but it takes -- mentality you know it's very easy to get burned in this league don't give your great quarterback or rookie quarterback you can get burned by any number receivers and quarterbacks. If that's if you if you find a guy that is. Not that -- mentally -- or -- or mickelson corners in what."

" else but but but to add to that every keep -- looking for -- quarterbacks because double. Three or five wide receiver six other teams play dead do you get a late goal that avenue they go find another good one of the draft but. -- stay even right there and it is now losing."

" It was something you know if there's no rookie has to step up and do what -- very few rookies. Most of opened to a Suggs or in other words in my collect 14 into next year you don't know much about fall off."

" In his days yes hard times Mike becoming doing my."

" I am speaking of rookies in and draft picks Peter King this week writes about the quarterbacks. In next years in in next spring's draft including a local guy met Ryan from DC predicts Ryan would go first among them the crop of is QBs coming up Brian wrong all Andre Woodson he says Atlanta is scenario is Atlanta's Bobby Petrino passes on brawn. Who -- coach at Louisville and takes Ryan is that it would you agree that Matt Wright could be the first quarterback maybe even the first player taken in the draft next spring."

" A year you're talking about the about Katrina by the late new testament albeit Corey for Jamal Anderson at that were -- from okay to presidential player last year eight. What for Jamal Anderson defensive that it. An unbreakable record he goes at number at east intentions at the age of 19 to audio or whatever under age 18 get right now. He's been as good as any young defense attack on the game Jamal Anderson or does that set up. Saying that that that market impact what he does and doesn't -- Matt Bryant to me will be the first quarterback taken he should be the first quarter -- the best quarterback coming -- on the draft I don't think he's going number one Miami Dolphins. And the first -- missed the Miami Dolphins are on the clock like they will have the number one pick and you know it's conceivable that if they like Matt Ryder Cup they could go in that direction. That team needs help defensively though and Glenn Dorsey -- somebody has to be awfully hard to pass up plus. Darren McFadden buy tickets or submit he's going to be the best player in the draft and machine that that the -- agent Peterson is that. Minnesota in -- that's -- is as good -- CJ Peters kept my heart to believe but that's of people say okay so there's initially decision that awaits the Miami Dolphins. It's possible the patriots to be sitting at two hole it would settle leftovers they lot."

" Right out of trading -- their -- that they want to trade Dunn just for no other reason but to get the old picked back."

" What might get a little bit on the just status that's great efforts of people say oh they're going to trade down in and affected super super. You are saying this thinking that there's going to be a player to another team is going to trade up want to -- again."

" McFadden McFadden will be there and -- get in people will get -- when it comes to McFadden and they do that would quarterbacks you know that teams need quarterbacks. Are going to say we got to get one of those guys."

" Yeah yeah yeah for the number two or three spot associates of number till the guaranteed money that spot anxious to be somewhat of the city of point nine million dollars so so it's your chemistry of the number two for a guy like that riding you're going to be attempt when handling guaranteed. You better be damn sure that that guy is your franchise quarterback to an extent seniors are you where you're going to lose your job."

" What numbers more more importantly the pacers to because of last in the big one to do is to invest second money in the proven player."

" And I -- think and I expect. But he could just talk together double B return. Let's say doing was taking at number five okay it would which surround number which about the spot they're going to wind up at right I mean in my pocket that. Object so so that that player at number five -- it somewhere guaranteed money in the vicinity of 22 -- two million dollars so. They're going to pay a rookie what you say what's that guys from your seat Keith rivers the linebacker just try to name okay Keith rivers and whoever it is the president 22 million dollars guaranteed money but they won't that was opposite."

" Dollars that's why it makes sense that they trade down even if they don't care what they normally would get."

" Did it just done that pitched -- several. And it Nickey tied for this team this season last season and and he's not going to make the money that their first round pick could make. This stuff about she's that's its bid that what."

" The later cents. I'd Adam tonight would pick up 815. Chicago at Washington NFL network high definition. Bryant Gumbel on play by play one more successful and well built or what's what about you wind we get to see you sit -- analysts all -- share your wisdom"

" you know I get the producer of the game the whole budget -- Agassi call me whatever you want usually they kept me. You know once to twice a game when Chris Collins were the bright doubled in that break -- that sticky cap MB being in the post game interview with the start of the game."

" This is is Gumbel really is bigger jerk as they say."

" do like -- likely doesn't broadcast I would like -- basketball person two with an animal tucked in next week is about this is by the court -- that's the."

" He's one of the great -- cash in on the today show and reels these phenomenal"

" that's their slogan he's better than colon that are a threat next week animal -- Q and -- we will. Preview of that game of the century patriots jets we'll get your prediction will."

" I'm just that -- John Heisman once led his school Georgia Tech 28 victory over a couple of college he beat him by a score of 222 -- not think."

" It sounds about rice can not right for that that's that's game I'd Adam tucked in next week to thanks. James Posey and Eddie house combined for 32 points off the Celtics spent shoplift the past Philadelphia 113 to 13 Paul --"
