That's the whole 163 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 2: crux of it. Someone put it this way, It'd be 164 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 2: like getting mad at somebody for not holding a door 165 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 2: for a woman when they had no arms, and then saying, 166 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 2: how dare you not hold the door for that woman? 167 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 2: You should apologize to her.

If you're if you're a friend 170 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 2: of a person who has no arms, you don't ask 171 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 2: them to hold the door. Similar to a friend, you 172 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 2: don't ask the person in a public televised thing where 173 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 2: an outburst might be potentially viable. 174 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 1: You don't put them there. 175 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 6: They're not taking them to the State of the Union 176 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 6: or a writing. 177 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 2: But no, that is that is the absolute right way 178 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 2: to look at this, as far as I'm concerned. You 179 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 2: can't put that guy in that position and then expect 180 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,719 Speaker 2: everybody else to conform and be okay with it. 181 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: I would even laughing my ass off. 182 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 2: At the first fewer because it's just like so inappropriate 183 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 2: how could it not be funny? 184 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: Obviously I don't agree with it, Obviously it's wrong. 185 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 2: But Jamie Fox is more mad at a guy with 186 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 2: Tourett's dropping an end bomb than he is with Quentin 187 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 2: Tarantino writing it nine hundred times into a movie. 188 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's cause he got paid for that. That's 189 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. 190 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 6: I'm so cynical that I sort of feel like they're 191 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 6: at the core of this. This may still be a 192 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 6: perfectly executed publicity. So like, I don't know what this 193 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 6: guy's pumping or anything like that, I agree with I 194 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 6: sure know what his name is now, and especially whoever 195 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 6: heard of the bath Awards? 196 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 3: Sounded like the NAFTA Awards.

He's been beaten 205 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 2: to within an inch of his life on the street. 206 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 2: Like it's a terrible disease to have. Also, it's kind 207 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 2: of hilarious, and that's how Balen got to be so 208 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 2: famous because she was okay leaning into what was funny 209 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 2: about it.

But the quarterback talk, as you would expect, 405 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 11: is getting most of the buzz this morning. Omar saying 406 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 11: that he doesn't see the waiting process for a decision 407 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 11: by Rodgers being as drawn out as last year. 408 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 4: I think the circumstances are a little different, but just 409 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:07,199 Speaker 4: conversations we had. I think neither side wants to have 410 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 4: this drag on what they did. 411 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 11: Last year, right, and last year it went all the 412 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 11: way to June, and those circumstances are this year. He's 413 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 11: their guy, so I think there's an onus on the 414 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 11: Steelers part to tell him what they're thinking. 415 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: They have they'd like to have him back. 416 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 11: There's an onus on Rogers' part to tell them what 417 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 11: he's thinking, and if he doesn't want to come back, 418 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 11: they can move on without worrying about whether or not 419 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 11: they have to hold X number of dollars for him 420 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 11: against the salary cap, Even though it's probably not going 421 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 11: to be that much because he played for so little 422 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 11: last year, I would still think it would be a 423 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 11: manageable cost this year. 424 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 1: If they're going to bring him back. 425 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 2: Maybe that's it. Maybe he wants more money to come back. 426 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 2: Just didn't imagine it's about money with Aaron Rodgers canas 427 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 2: and last year is very manageable. I don't think he'll 428 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 2: take you know less than he did last year. 429 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 1: I think have to. I know it's going to be 430 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: more than it was last year, but I don't think 431 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 1: it's going to be prohibitive, and the cap has gone up. 432 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:58,160 Speaker 1: He wants to win. 433 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 2: Don't forget he's not going to you know, the only 434 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 2: reason he would be coming back is to be competitive, 435 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:04,160 Speaker 2: and he surely does not want to put the team. 436 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 2: This is a Sydney Crosby situation. You know, he doesn't 437 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 2: want to hamstring the team that you know. If the 438 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 2: only reason he's coming back is to get another championship. 439 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 11: These Steelers have the eighth most calf space coming into 440 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,479 Speaker 11: the season, and the third most among returning playoff teams. 441 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 3: Well, what team better than the Steelers wants him to 442 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 3: be the quarterback Vikings? Maybe the Viking You think they're 443 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:31,919 Speaker 3: better than us on paper. Their offense very likely could be. 444 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 2: It's hard to know, because I think that the Steelers 445 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 2: offense had the possibility to be a lot more prolific 446 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 2: than they were last year if they only had one 447 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 2: more receiver, if Arthur Smith wasn't running. What appeared by 448 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 2: the end of the year to be this archaic offense 449 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 2: that never really got going. It chugged along and showed flashes, 450 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,920 Speaker 2: but never gone on any sort of consistent rhythmic plane. 451 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 11: Not to mention too that the Vikings also played and 452 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 11: what wound up being a better division last year rat 453 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 11: Bears and Packers make the playoffs and the Lions on 454 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 11: the cusp, whereas the Steelers are the only team above 455 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 11: five hundred in their division. 456 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 3: That's the big point I think is, you know the 457 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 3: Vikings are better than the Packers or the Bears or 458 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 3: the Lions. 459 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 11: Well, how much of that was because they had McCarthy. 460 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 11: He's also playing it off and injured, right. 461 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 2: And they're playing in a dome, and you know they 462 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 2: don't have to face the Ravens. 463 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: And the Brown receivers. 464 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 11: So yeah, you know, I think there's reason to believe 465 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 11: why he might be tempted. Then again, there was reason 466 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 11: to believe that last year, and he wanted to play here, 467 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,919 Speaker 11: so and maybe and maybe the Vikings didn't want him 468 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 11: last year because they wanted to look to see what 469 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 11: McCarthy was. 470 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 2: I do think he liked the full immersion into football 471 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:42,160 Speaker 2: culture here in Steeler Nation. 472 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 11: Yeah, not like you wouldn't have had that in Minneapolis. 473 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,199 Speaker 11: They're good football fans out there. That's a good that's 474 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 11: a good fan base. 475 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 2: It's different, though perceptually it's different. Maybe not if you 476 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 2: played in Green Bay. You know, I think that when 477 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 2: people think of the Steelers, the Vikings aren't the next 478 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 2: team they think of in terms of ingrained football, tough culture, 479 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 2: like everybody in western Pennsylvania grows up. 480 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 1: As is evidenced in the movie Right. 481 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 2: Right exactly, which is going to start playing for the 482 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 2: public this weekend?

I know. 487 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 11: I was trying to put the property about there. 488 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: It's Pittsburgh. 489 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 2: It's it costs more than ten million bucks to get 490 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 2: people to remember your name. 491 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 11: You can still call it acu sure, like the former 492 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 11: coach did all the way up until his resignation. 493 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: That's right now.

Oh? 671 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 2: You know, just a little bit snow and some accidents 672 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 2: and all that this morning, but nothing we won't be 673 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 2: able to get past. 674 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this. 675 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 2: We talked briefly yesterday, Omar talking with the media yesterday, 676 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 2: is the betting money Now after hearing that and parsing 677 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 2: through everything and reading in between the lines, that Aaron 678 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 2: Rodgers is indeed going to come back as the Steelers 679 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 2: quarterback in twenty six. 680 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 8: It is from the way I'm interpretting things, Randy, And 681 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 8: it's been that way really since last season ended, once 682 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 8: they got through the transition of Mike Tomlins no longer 683 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 8: the coach, but Mike McCarthy is the coach. I think 684 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 8: I think it's the coach. Was one of those two guys. 685 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 8: Then this would be a different conversation, but it was 686 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 8: interesting here Omar yesterday. You know, the combine has become 687 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 8: the fast food of draft media for gms and coaches. 688 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 8: Omar talked with a group of local reporters in a 689 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 8: hotel ballroom yesterday morning. Then he went to the Invention 690 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 8: Center to talk to the national media, and then he 691 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 8: did a Steelers Dot commentary with Rob King, and then 692 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 8: he did a sit down with Rich Eisen and I'm 693 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 8: not sure if he did anything else, but it was 694 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 8: basically the same questions over and over, and Omar's getting 695 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 8: pretty good at not delivering much of an answer, which 696 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 8: is kind of what these guys endeavor to do. But 697 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 8: every time he spoke about Rogers, there's just a vibe 698 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:28,959 Speaker 8: to it. He said something yesterday that actually got my attention. 699 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 8: It was, at least from what I've read and heard, 700 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 8: a new observation. Omar talked about how nobody talks about 701 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 8: Aaron Rodgers toughness and how Omar thinks rogers toughness is 702 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,479 Speaker 8: real and how that resonates with the team, and how 703 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 8: he's a tough football player. You know, you can look 704 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 8: at this guy and say, oh my god, he's forty 705 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 8: two what are they doing? Or you can look at 706 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 8: who the guy is and said, wow, he's a tough 707 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 8: guy and the team respects that well. 708 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 2: Isn't it easy to see that the reason they're not 709 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 2: talking about his toughness is because the number one knock 710 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 2: against him is he won't dan in the pocket and 711 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 2: take a hit, or he doesn't want to. 712 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 1: He clearly wants to get rid of the ball. 713 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 8: I mean he wants to get rid of the ball 714 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 8: because he doesn't want to get sacked because it's a 715 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 8: negative play. I mean, he stood in the pocket and 716 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 8: took a hit against Houston on third and twelve when 717 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 8: it was a ten to sixth game in the fourth quarter, 718 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 8: and he got smoked, and then the Texans picked it 719 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 8: up and ran at the end zone and then it 720 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 8: was a seventeen to sixth game on the way to 721 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 8: thirty one to six or whatever it ended up. I mean, 722 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 8: showing how tough you are by taking a sack is 723 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 8: is not the objective. The objective is to make positive plays. 724 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 8: And I think what Omar was referencing was his ability 725 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 8: you'll have missed one game, his ability to practice every 726 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 8: day and if you look at it in that scope. 727 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 8: I think he's more than tough enough. Now, what he's 728 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 8: not is mobile enough to run away right, No, I 729 00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 8: think that's a drawback. You know, the idea, do you 730 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 8: have mobile quarterbacks? It's not just breed options and you know, 731 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 8: being able to run quarterback draws and things of that nature. 732 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 8: I was talking with Matt Williamson about this yesterday. Matt 733 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 8: is of the opinion that pretty much in every matchup 734 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 8: in the NFL now, the defensive line is going to 735 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 8: be better than the offensive line. The league is just 736 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 8: cultivating ridiculously good rushers, and that's something you got to 737 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 8: deal with it. If you can't run away and then 738 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 8: you got to get rid of the ball quick or 739 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 8: it's a negative play. 740 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 11: Omar was also frequently bringing the conversation back to Will 741 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 11: Howard quite a bit, but at the same time, in 742 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 11: this venue a couple of years ago, he also said, 743 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 11: I have the utmost faith in Kenny Pickett, and then 744 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 11: a few weeks later he was an Eagle, He said 745 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 11: this venue last year, George Pickens, we want him to 746 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 11: mature and be a star. 747 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 1: Here. 748 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 11: He was a cowboy by May, and he was also 749 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 11: talking about signing either Fields or Wilson at this time 750 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 11: of year ago. So what should I believe then about 751 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 11: his true level of belief in Will Howard. 752 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 8: Know? That's that's a great context regarding what goes on 753 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 8: at these type of events. And another point that Omar 754 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 8: Annuel makes his hey, a lot can change between now 755 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 8: and the draft or a lot at the start of 756 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 8: the season. He always kind of gives himself a little 757 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 8: a little out rather than take himself into a corner. 758 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 8: But I guess to answer your question, Tim, you know, 759 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 8: we all have sort of our impressions of when these 760 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 8: guys speak, you know, with Tomlin, because we were all 761 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 8: around him for a long time. Omar's been doing this 762 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 8: a little while now. I guess that's left up to 763 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 8: the individual interpreter. But I'll give you an example. He's 764 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 8: asked about Isaac say Mala yesterday and he said, yeah, 765 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,799 Speaker 8: Isaac's great. We love Isaac. But you know, there's the 766 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,720 Speaker 8: free agent class and there's the draft that Spencer Anderson 767 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 8: did really well. He didn't say they're getting rid of 768 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 8: Isaac sa Malo and they're not going to resign Isaac 769 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 8: say Malla. But the impression I have is they're not 770 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 8: going to resign Isaac stay Wawa. So you know, it's 771 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 8: it's kind of up to the beholder in terms of 772 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 8: what you buy and what you just give the heisman. 773 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 2: Other takeaways from yesterday and the Broderick Jones situation, you know, 774 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 2: it seemed based on performance alone, they were not going 775 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 2: to pick up that option. But I don't want to 776 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 2: say he sounded dismissive yesterday was it was short of that, 777 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,799 Speaker 2: but the concern for the injury seemed to set up 778 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 2: a situation that foretold how they were going to handle 779 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 2: left tackle. 780 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,799 Speaker 8: Yeah, that's you know, he was asked his project going 781 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 8: to be ready for camp and the answer was that's 782 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,319 Speaker 8: a good question. We're going to continue to monitor that. 783 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 8: I didn't think that the health was an issue at all. 784 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 8: I don't know if he's going to be able to play. 785 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 8: So you know, that to the list. If we were 786 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 8: talking about Dylan Cook battling Broderick Jones for left tackle, 787 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:58,319 Speaker 8: that was one you know, plausible scenario. Is there this 788 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,359 Speaker 8: big a question mark called broderc jone as you could 789 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 8: probably add left tackle to their shopping list. 790 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 2: Nope, No, I think that that's definitely going to be 791 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,720 Speaker 2: in the forecast come April, And speaking of the draft, 792 00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 2: you know, the NFL has figured out a way to 793 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,359 Speaker 2: move the draft around the country and capitalize on the 794 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 2: NFL fanaticism that has really turned into a year round thing. 795 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,720 Speaker 2: You're in Indianapolis at the Combine right now. 796 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 1: Do you see the NFL. 797 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 2: Moving the Combine around eventually the way they move the 798 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 2: draft around and trying to make that the next thing. 799 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 8: I don't think it's as easy to move this logistically 800 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 8: as it would be the draft. The draft. You just 801 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 8: need to find a big space, and I think with 802 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 8: the draft they're not as concerned about the hotel rooms 803 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 8: and things of that nature. Also, you have a handful 804 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 8: of actual players at the draft here, you have a 805 00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 8: whole bunch. I think the draft stays here just because 806 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,799 Speaker 8: it's been excuse me, the combined stage here, because it's 807 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 8: been here for so long, and because this setup is 808 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 8: so ideal. I'm in a hotel a Jason to the 809 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 8: convention Center. I don't have to walk outside to get 810 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 8: to where everything's happening. It's pretty smooth off here. 811 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 2: Is there any talk about the comments yesterday about the Steelers, 812 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 2: Ravens the rest getting the call wrong on the Aaron Rodgers, 813 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 2: you know, possession as the batted ball went back to 814 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:33,280 Speaker 2: him with his knee on the ground. 815 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 8: I didn't hear anything about it. I don't know if 816 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 8: it was if it was talked about, I did. I 817 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 8: was kind of Omar centric. Yesterday. I did hear an 818 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:48,840 Speaker 8: interesting soliloquist from John Harbaugh talking about the old Steelers 819 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 8: Ravens rivalry, and he went on, I don't know if 820 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:55,400 Speaker 8: you guys saw that clip online or not, but he 821 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 8: was talking about it in glowing terms. And that is 822 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 8: one thing that I think we're all gonna miss because, uh, 823 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 8: guess what, no more. I mean, they're still gonna play 824 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 8: each other, but it's it's not horriball.
