00:00The Protector of the Year Award.
00:03It's nice that they've come up with this.
00:05Every team starts five offensive linemen,
00:09and we're going to give out one Protector of the Year.
00:13It seems a little silly.
00:15It's fine.
00:16Penny Sewell's the favorite.
00:18Lane Johnson, Trent Williams, Jordan Milata
00:20are the others underneath the 10-1 marker.
00:24Does something jump out to you here?
00:25Alt, 15-1, because we know he's going to be in the lineup.
00:29He's going to protect Justin Herbert,
00:31and they're going to run the football down there,
00:32everyone's throat, with Amari on Hampton and Najee Harris.
00:3515-1 would be the only player I bank here.
00:39I don't love it, but I can't back Penny Sewell.
00:44I can't back Lane Johnson.
00:45I told you, I think they preserve Saquon Bark.
00:49They're going to run it, but they're not going to run it as dominant.
00:52They got the Super Bowl already.
00:53Now they're going to rely on their MVP.
00:56They're going to be more balanced throughout the regular season
00:58and save it.
00:59So, this is the thing for me.
01:03It is so hard to tell.
01:06Are we going to get an award that gets handed out
01:08based on pro football focus grade?
01:11Or is it going to be a key guy on the top rush off?
01:15Well, do we know?
01:16Do we basically have an idea?
01:18It's supposed to be the best offensive line in football,
01:20but it's just...
01:20It's too objective for me.
01:22It's just...
01:23It is.
01:25It's too objective.
01:26No, I'm serious, though.
01:28MVP.
01:29All right.
01:29You go to the best quarterback.
01:31I mean, come on.
01:32We're going to be throwing numbers out.
01:34You know, you had four pancakes in one game.
01:38You know, okay.
01:38So, that's what I'm trying to say.
01:41Is, at the end of a game,
01:44are we going to say,
01:46Deion Dawkins graded out at a 92
01:48in the matchup against the Jets,
01:51or the Buffalo Bills ran for 212 yards against the Jets,
01:57Deion Dawkins gained steam.
01:59Like, that's what I'm trying to...
02:00Like, I think Chris Lindstrom
02:01on the Atlanta Falcons is tempting.
02:03He's the star of a Falcons team
02:05that's going to pound the rock with Deion.
02:07He's 35 to 1.
02:09That's interesting to me.
02:10It is.
02:10Creed Humphrey.
02:12I mean, you're talking 20 to 1.
02:13I mean, we know how Pat Mahomes got beat up.
02:16We know about the offensive line changes.
02:18Full debate and switch on you, the book.
02:20Creed's in Chicago now,
02:21and they still have the KC logo next to him.
02:23They screwed me.
02:24They screwed me.
02:26They screwed me when I looked at it quick.
02:30I looked at it quick.
02:32There you go.
02:33Full debate and switch on you.
02:35There you go.
02:36It happens.
02:38Punso isn't bad with that.
02:41With who?
02:42Now I've got to remember.
02:45With Washington.
02:46With Washington, right.
02:47See, I even think that is a fascinating thing.
02:50Like, what percentage of the credit...
02:52Well, then, but why even bet?
02:54Like, it's tough to bet this type of market
02:57because, again, I don't believe in Detroit
02:59being as consistent.
03:00I don't believe in Philadelphia being as consistent
03:04and relying on the rushing attack.
03:05Now we leave it open to everybody out there.
03:08That's why I say, if you're high on Harbaugh, right,
03:12and you're high on them to potentially be a 12-win football team,
03:17Joe Walt at 15-1, and they love him.
03:19Every time they show Justin Herbert, they're showing Joe Walt.
03:24I'm just saying, I'm not going to be betting this and diving in,
03:28but it's not bad if you want to take a shot.
03:31But I think, too, truly, like, it's just, it is very, very tricky to get...
03:37Tristan Wirfs is sat here at 25-1.
03:39I think Tristan Wirfs is arguably the best offensive lineman in football.
03:44And they're going to run it.
03:45Right.
03:46He also might miss the first four weeks of the season.
03:49Does that matter in this award?
03:50Those are the kind of things that we're still trying to find out.
