@MNewhouse73 and I discussed the Maxx Crosby trade
How Spytek played the process perfectly
What’s next for the Raiders

Fernando Mendoza’s best throw of the year came from a play that they installed that week and his QB coach Chandler Whitmer shows him a cut up of Justin Herbert executing it
Fernando Mendoza is a different type of prospect than the general consensus of him. It’s how he developed throughout the season that makes him such a strong prospect. I talked to his coach about his development throughout the season.

No one is talking about this FA class of fullbacks but there are a couple of juggernauts at the top
Some really cool, in-depth knowledge being shared here, like how the play sheet is organized and playcalling responsibilities divvied up

@MNewhouse73 and I talked about Klint Kubiak’s new coaching staff. Kubiak was late to the game with the SB but did well with the circumstances

Took a deep dive into Klint Kubiak’s offense and looked at traits he showed as an OC that could make him a good HC

Caleb Downs taking on the pulling center and making a tackle. That’s the good stuff
Watching the Bad Bunny performance for the first time on broadcast and love that he highlighted ordinary people but that doesn’t look like a construction worker

We talked about Klint Kubiak and his ability utilize the SEA roster and adjust throughout the season with the great @minakimes.bsky.social

The Seahawks coverage disguises had Drake Maye in hell
“You have to time up the blitz perfectly," Devon Witherspoon told me after the game. "We knew how they would protect in certain looks.”
How Seattle rattled Drake Maye with early blitzes & sealed the game thanks to good scouting and odd decisions by NE

Happy annual Raiders new coach introductory press conference day to all that celebrate

The most consistently excellent team all year long fittingly takes home the Lombardi
The streaker sliding like a QB is just high IQ
Finally got to hang and do a live pod with @mnewhouse.bsky.social at Radio Row
- Crosby trade? (Recorded b4 Maxx interview but still a conversation)
- Does Kubiak want to work with Geno?
- Who is Kubiak taking with him?

The Patriots have transformed their identity in the post seasons and it’s fair to question their elite post season production but they do have some natural answers against the Seahawks offense
What to watch out for when SEA has the ball: www.nytimes.com/athletic/702...
The Patriots offense has struggled in the post season but they have some potential answers that the Seahawks defense haven’t seen a lot this season that they can press.

Mike Macdonald’s system has never been about specific plays. In Baltimore, it was about seemingly infinite combination of sim pressures. I wrote about the latest evolution of his scheme that has them on the door step of a championship.

Kliff has become GQ Greg Roman. Great for a couple of years and a creative run game designer but ultimately, you hit your ceiling with him and will need someone to take you over the top.
Still young enough to change the narrative though.
. @mnewhouse.bsky.social and I are going live at 2pm PT to talk about Klint Kubiak

Jim Leonhard is interviewing with the Ravens today. Would be a huge hire for Minter, who said he would be calling plays, because Leonhard has opportunity to call plays elsewhere. Seems to be between Ravens and Bills now.
