1
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:09,440
Speaker 1: Joining me now to talk a little bit more football

2
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 1: from the Post Gazette.

3
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:12,119
Speaker 2: He is Paul Seiss. Paulp.

4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,440
Speaker 1: I've been bitching all week about the Steelers using basically

5
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: seven offensive linemen with Washington at tight end and Spencer

6
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:23,159
Speaker 1: Anderson is the extra tackle. It's prehistoric. What do you

7
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:25,279
Speaker 1: think is it good? Will it beat good teams in

8
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: big games? What about a playoff game?

9
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,880
Speaker 3: Well, I think Mark the thing about it is they're

10
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 3: doing everything in her power to make sure that Aaron

11
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 3: Rodgers is still upright when it gets to the end

12
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 3: of the season. So I mean, I don't know that

13
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 3: I love it when they're playing against some of the

14
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 3: some of the high powered quarterbacks that they're gonna have

15
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 3: to see in the playoffs. But in terms of just

16
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 3: trying to maul some teams and and and and you know,

17
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 3: be able to run the football enough that you don't

18
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 3: have Aaron Rodgers taking as many because really the first

19
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 3: couple of weeks of the season, I thought Aaron Rodgers

20
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 3: was probably never gonna make it the week five because

21
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 3: they got hit too much and was getting He was

22
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 3: not just taking hits, he was taking big hits. So

23
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:11,960
Speaker 3: I think, you know, part of what they're trying to

24
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 3: do with the running game is preserve their quarterback. If

25
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 3: that sounds if, if it makes any sense to you,

26
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 3: I think early in the season, I'm actually okay with it.

27
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 3: I really don't know that they have to do a

28
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 3: whole lot more than try and get to the end

29
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 3: of the year with Aaron Rodgers still being able to walk.

30
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,199
Speaker 2: No, I get it, but my point would be that.

31
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: It keeps Aaron Rodgers from being Aaron Rodgers if that's

32
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: still possible at forty It eliminates some weaponry. A you

33
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: look at Fiarmouth and John who being minimized.

34
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 2: You're trying to win, not just keep him healthy.

35
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: It reminds me of when Arians his game plan put

36
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: Bennett risk, but they won more. I was okay with that,

37
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: right and every coordinator after that protected Ben, but they

38
00:01:58,640 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: didn't win as much.

39
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 3: Well, I guess that's a catch twenty two. I think

40
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers, like I said, at forty one, forty two

41
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 3: years old. You know, it was a year and a

42
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 3: half ago or whatever it was. Two years ago he

43
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 3: had a major major surgery. He's, you know, not the

44
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 3: most nimble of feet right now. They just can slowly,

45
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 3: but surely build on Aaron Rodgers. But here's the other thing.

46
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 3: I mean, I think that Aaron Rodgers might only have one,

47
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 3: you know, weapon that really scares anybody, and that's dk Metcalp.

48
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 3: So you know, if you want him to start slinging

49
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 3: it around the field, that might be okay, except for

50
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 3: I don't know that they have you know, the personnel

51
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 3: around him to do that. So to me, it feels

52
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 3: like they're just trying to build a little bit at

53
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 3: a time. But I do really believe that they are

54
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 3: trying very hard to make sure that Aaron Rodgers is

55
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 3: healthy and upright for you know, the stretch running the

56
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 3: end of the season.

57
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,639
Speaker 1: And I don't even mind it against Cleveland because it

58
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: will help contain Garrett Is coming Sunday. But but again,

59
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: when they get the good teams, big games, playoff games,

60
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 1: I think you need to do more than this. Uh

61
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: what's your take in that vein Pall on how little

62
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 1: friarm was and Johnna were being underutilized. This offense was

63
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 1: supposed to be about the tight ends first and foremost.

64
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's real interesting. But it goes back

65
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 3: to what I said when they got John Smith, and

66
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 3: I said It's interesting. I keep hearing about all the

67
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 3: tight ends that he that that, you know, the Arthur

68
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 3: Smith once, but three of them aren't good blockers. So

69
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 3: if you've got three guys that aren't good blockers, you

70
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 3: know what I mean? Like to me, you're right, it

71
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 3: kind of goes counter to what it is you're trying

72
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 3: to do in the running game with the rest of

73
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 3: your offense. But it also means you probably can't use

74
00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 3: those guys.

75
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: Here's a crazy stat, Paul. The Steelers running backs are

76
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: getting sixty four percent of the offensive touches.

77
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 2: Is that good or bad?

78
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 3: Uh? Boy? Probably not. It's probably not ideal. But again,

79
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 3: I think it goes back to what we've talked about

80
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 3: with respect to the uh you know, the receivers they

81
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 3: have and whatnot, and that is those guys I just

82
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 3: don't think they're that good. And so it's you know,

83
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 3: in general, when you see a stat like that, you say, well,

84
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 3: at who's expense, Well, as long as DK metcalf is

85
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 3: getting his touches, I don't know. I mean, throwing the

86
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 3: gagwell seems like just as good of an option as

87
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 3: throwing it to any of the other guys out there

88
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:46,279
Speaker 3: that they have.

89
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 1: We're talking to Paul's ice to Postcausette here in the

90
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: Mark Mann Show, Paul's Worse Cleveland at Flato's gone. Five

91
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: rookies of starting, including Gabriela quarterback. Are the Browns moving forward?

92
00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: Are they just trading?

93
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,919
Speaker 3: I would like to believe for their sake that they're

94
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 3: moving forward on some level. But the problem is it's

95
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 3: the Browns. And the other part of it is they've

96
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:24,239
Speaker 3: so badly mangled the quarterback positions that I cannot imagine that.

97
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 3: You know, it's not that it's gonna turn out okay,

98
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 3: that Dylan Gabriel. I mean, you know, it's the Browns.

99
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 3: You're thinking exactly like I am, which is that he's

100
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 3: going to be a disaster. Suder Sanders is going to

101
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 3: be a disaster, and so all those other rookies that

102
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,479
Speaker 3: are playing and playing well, it's gonna be pretty much

103
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 3: useless because they you know, they're on a team that

104
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 3: isn't very good. Dude.

105
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: The Steelers have the AFC North locked up, but three

106
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 1: and one, with the rest of the division in tatters,

107
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 1: not least at the quarterback position, with all those teams

108
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:56,239
Speaker 1: except maybe.

109
00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 3: Glee well locked up, is probably a little too strong.

110
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 3: But I mean, Mark, you look at the other three teams,

111
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 3: they all look like they're just not They're not just bad.

112
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 3: They're a total disaster, you know. In the Ravens, I mean, yeah,

113
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson can come back, but I hope he can

114
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 3: score fifty or sixty points a game for them, because

115
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 3: that defense is ridiculously bad. I'm glad that the Bengals have,

116
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 3: you know, dusted off Joe Flacco to try and you know,

117
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,039
Speaker 3: win a game or two. Uh, but it sounds like

118
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow is gonna be out for like eight or

119
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 3: nine games, so you know by the time he gets back,

120
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 3: they'll probably be buried. So basically not locked up. But

121
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 3: it would take in monumental failure on the half of

122
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 3: the steel on behalf of the Steelers for them to

123
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 3: not win the AFC North at this point, because I

124
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 3: look at the Ravens and I think with that defense,

125
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 3: and you know, a couple more weeks of Cooper Rush,

126
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,599
Speaker 3: you know, they could be every bit of like one

127
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 3: in six at some point.

128
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 2: No, I agree with all that, And here's the prediction

129
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 2: I feel safe making. I think the.

130
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,359
Speaker 1: Steelers will have a two game lead in the Division

131
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: when they played Baltimore on December seventh, and the week

132
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: before when they played Buffalo. I think they'll be in

133
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: the hunt for the AFC number one seed overall. Whether

134
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 1: they hold on to either let alone that number one seed,

135
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: which I think is a real long shot because of Buffalo,

136
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I think that's how we'll shape

137
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: up at that juncture.

138
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 3: Are you buying the Colts at all?

139
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 2: I don't know.

140
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: I think they'll be in the talk for what I'm

141
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: talking about, number one seed then, but I don't know.

142
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 1: I mean, they got the best running back in football

143
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: with Taylor and Danny Dimes.

144
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 2: It's a real renaissance, isn't it. Yeah.

145
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 3: I mean I'm looking at their offense and you know,

146
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 3: what's the guy's name, their coach Stech. Yeah, yeah, the

147
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 3: offensive coordinator from the Eagles. I mean to be honest,

148
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 3: if this goes on for another two or three weeks,

149
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 3: if I'm the Giants, I'm firing this. The bull guy

150
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 3: who was supposed to be the offensive guru and everything else,

151
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 3: from the simple fact that he obviously has no idea

152
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 3: how to work with a quarterback. Seeing as the kid

153
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 3: comes to Indianapolis, it looks like a pretty good player.

154
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 3: So I don't know yet if I'm buying the Colts,

155
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 3: but every week I come away from the weekend saying, boy,

156
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 3: they might be the most impressive team in the AFC

157
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 3: right now.

158
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: Paul Quick College Football Talk, what's your take on Penn

159
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: State's lost to UCLA and what James Franklin.

160
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 2: Got to do the rest of the season to keep

161
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 2: his job.

162
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I think he'll keep his job. I

163
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 3: mean again, the fifty six million dollars, I don't care

164
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 3: what school you are, and you know, unless you're one

165
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 3: of those Texas schools with oil and gas money, that's

166
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 3: a big buyout. Fifty six million dollars, I think is

167
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 3: what I've read his buyout is. It's interesting. I know

168
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 3: that they appear to be Detton buried, and you know,

169
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 3: you lose a play a listless game against a horrific

170
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 3: team and lose, you know, but if you look at

171
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 3: the rest of their schedule, if they run the table,

172
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 3: they'll be in the playoffs. And I'm not saying they

173
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 3: can beat Ohio State. Maybe they can't even beat Indiana,

174
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 3: but they you know, they win those two games, and

175
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 3: they finished ten and two I'm pretty sure they're gonna

176
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 3: be in the playoff and then pretty much everything else,

177
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 3: you know, goes away. So I think what he needs

178
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 3: to do is win sort of the confidence back of

179
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 3: maybe his players, the fan base, and the administration. But

180
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't see unless they go two and

181
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 3: ten or you know, four and eight, and I don't

182
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 3: think it's gonna even be a discussion to fire. And

183
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 3: they might, they might ask him to make some changes,

184
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 3: you know, on his staff and do all those things.

185
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 3: But to me, I just think that's a really big

186
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 3: buyout to try and fire a guy.

187
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 1: What about the quarterback, Drew Aller, Do you think he's

188
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: still a first round pick? I feel like him in

189
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: arts Manning might drop out of the first round, or maybe,

190
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: in Manning's case, stay in school another year.

191
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Manning should probably stay in school another year.

192
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:00,199
Speaker 3: Drew Llar right now, I don't know that he the

193
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 3: first rounder in anybody's mind. And I also, you know,

194
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 3: one of the things that's interesting is we were told

195
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 3: that they have the two best coordinators in the country,

196
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 3: you know, because they spent all his money on these

197
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 3: two coordinators. And the thing I keep reading is that

198
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,079
Speaker 3: a Lar does not fit into the system. And the

199
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 3: kid that they let go to like Missouri or wherever

200
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,439
Speaker 3: the hell he went is the guy that probably should

201
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 3: be the the you know him. So it's kind of

202
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 3: interesting because that probably tells me that Drue Law is

203
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 3: probably not going to really fix whatever it is it's

204
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 3: ailing him during the season. But again, with his physical tools,

205
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,199
Speaker 3: he could go to the combine and still solidify himself

206
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 3: as a top you know, as a first round pick.

207
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 3: We've seen stranger things.

208
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 2: What about pitt In this went over Boston College.

209
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: A lot of people are going nuts, just like the

210
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 1: Niver Holstein last year. I like the way this new

211
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: kid quarterback, the eighteen year old Heinschel, how he looked.

212
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: But all they did was be the craft team, right.

213
00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 3: They'd been a terrible team. And you know, I think

214
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 3: one of the things I'll tell you may Heidchel was

215
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 3: the best quarterback in pitch spring. I wrote about that

216
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 3: several times. He was the best quarterback in training camp,

217
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 3: and actually it wasn't even close. So it's interesting. You know,

218
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 3: they lose a couple of games and all of a sudden,

219
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 3: the guy that they're paying all the money too goes

220
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 3: that goes right, out the window and and and they

221
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 3: you know, because I think that honestly, Pat and Mardosey

222
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 3: was starting to feel a little bit of heat after

223
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 3: losing to West Virginia then blowing that game against Louisville.

224
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 3: You know, at that point it's like, well, I know

225
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 3: that we paid this guy all his money, and we

226
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 3: got a payroll and all this other, but we need

227
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,959
Speaker 3: to win. It's just kind of comical to me because

228
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 3: anybody that watched even a little bit of spring and

229
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 3: training camp will tell you the Heinchel Kidd was the

230
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 3: best quarterback in camp and it wasn't even close.

231
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 1: Paul, great stuff, Thank you so much for taking the time.

232
00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 1: We'll talk again real soon.

233
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 3: All right, thiks Man, talk to you soon.

234
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 2: That's Paul's eis.

235
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,319
Speaker 1: This segment brought was by eighty four Lumber Dynasty, partner

236
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 1: of the Pittsburgh Steelers. We got more Steelers talk at

237
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 1: the bottom of the hour with Jerry Dulac.

238
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 2: Get your calls in now.

239
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: It's your first chance of the day really to break

240
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,560
Speaker 1: through and talk to the super genius A three three

241
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 1: four one two ninety nine thirty nine eight three three

242
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 1: four one two ninety nine thirty nine.

243
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 2: It's the OI Show weekday mornings.

244
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,959
Speaker 1: It's always break to hear from the lady callers to

245
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:28,599
Speaker 1: the X.

246
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,079
Speaker 4: At one oh five nine.

247
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:41,079
Speaker 2: Numb one one the X.

248
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: We got Jerry Douloc talking Steelers to the bottom of

249
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: the hour. I think the Steeler are gonna win this game.

250
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 1: I don't think it'll be well, it'll be one score game.

251
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 1: It'll be close till the end, but I don't think

252
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 1: the result will be in doubt. I don't. I do

253
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 1: want to see what happens if the Bronze make Zach

254
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 1: be the number two quarterback and leave Shador at the

255
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:07,839
Speaker 1: emergency spot. What the reaction to that is by ownership,

256
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 1: who clearly wants Shador to play. Maw and Pau sanders Cleveland,

257
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 1: they just can't get away from drama, even when things

258
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: are moving, however, slightly in the good direction, what with

259
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,959
Speaker 1: five rookies played in, including Dylan Gabriel, who I thought

260
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 1: played just fine despite losing to Minnesota in London last week.

261
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 1: Cleveland's got a good defense, Cleveland's got a lot going

262
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: for it, but they just can't get out of their

263
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,719
Speaker 1: own way. And like Paul's I said a few moments ago,

264
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: you just can't trust him to do the right thing

265
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: at quarterback. Look at all the quarterbacks they've used since

266
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: since nineteen ninety nine when they came back into the NFL.

267
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: I think they've started what over forty quarterbacks in games

268
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 1: since then. And while I do like Dylan Gabriel to

269
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 1: this point, I don't think he's the answer.

270
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 2: I don't think he's their long term quarterback. Who knows.

271
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 1: Maybe, But if Cleveland wins like three games this year,

272
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 1: which is what might happen, you know, four or five games,

273
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: what if they get a chance to draft one of

274
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: those so called stud quarterbacks in the first round. Do

275
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: they eschew that and take a player at a different position

276
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: and just stick with Dylan Gabriel. It's very early returns

277
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: on Dylan gab where you couldn't commit to him one

278
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: way or the other in that regard. But they, again,

279
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: the Browns can't get out of their own way. I've

280
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 1: been keeping an eye on the baseball playoffs. One thing

281
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 1: you gotta like is the Yankees being out kind of

282
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: ignominiously in the division series Toronto. You know, really was

283
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: never in danger of losing that series. They win three games.

284
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 2: To one, and the Yankees.

285
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 1: You know, with all the national media on their size side.

286
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 2: This just monstrous.

287
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 1: Payroll third in the league this year, traditionally top two,

288
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 1: top three, and they haven't won a World Series in

289
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 1: sixteen years. They made one last year but didn't win it.

290
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 1: That's the only time they've made the World Series since

291
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: having won it sixteen years ago. You know, their fans

292
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 1: are pissed. The New York media's pissed. You know, good

293
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 1: f the Yankees. I can't stand the Yankees. Same with

294
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: the Mets. The Mets said, I think the second highest

295
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 1: payroll in baseball this year and did not even make

296
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Playoffs, But but interesting discussion. I forget who

297
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 1: it was. I had sound, but I didn't play it. It

298
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 1: wasn't that interesting. Oh here it is a Rod and

299
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: Derrek Jeter talking on Fox the post game of that

300
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 1: Yankees loss. And they blamed everybody but Aaron Boone. Aaron

301
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: Boone's like the whipping boy, the manager for the fans.

302
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 1: They blame him, But you know what they blamed. They

303
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 1: blamed the analytics. They said, Aaron Boone isn't the guy

304
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 1: making the decisions. He gets every decis made for him

305
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: by an iPad. I'm just glad to see the Yankees out.

306
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: Let me tell you there's always another way to win

307
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 1: when it comes to the Betparks Online casino and sportsbook app.

308
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 1: I love the bet Parks app. I use the bet

309
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: Parks app. You should use the bet Parks app too.

310
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:22,520

Speaker 1: joining me not to talk about it. He covers the

345
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 1: Black and Gold for the Post Gazette. Always great to

346
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: talk to. Jerry Dulac, Jerry, how will does Steelers deploy

347
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 1: their secondary without Jalen Ramsey, who's not only their best

348
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 1: d back but kind of a Swiss Army knife.

349
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,679
Speaker 2: A lot kind of revolves around him, doesn't.

350
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:21,920
Speaker 6: It, Yeah, Mark, because he's able to play three different positions,

351
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 6: and without him, they'll go a little bit more standard

352
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 6: with you know, Warren Thornhill along with Deshaun Elliott, and

353
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 6: then the two cornerbacks are you know, rotate a third

354
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,679
Speaker 6: one in there, but you know, Darius Slay and Joey

355
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 6: Porter Jr. So it'll be a little bit more of

356
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,639
Speaker 6: a standard defense in the back instead of the varied

357
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 6: looks and groupings that they have when Jalen Ramsey can play,

358
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 6: there's no doubt it'll be you know, it'll be a

359
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 6: little different for him not having Jalen Ramsey.

360
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: Now that said that Steelers defense is kind of running

361
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 1: in the form lately, isn't it?

362
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 6: Mark Best I seen him play all year. No, I

363
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,560
Speaker 6: know that's a low bar. But for three and a

364
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:08,640
Speaker 6: half quarters, they look like what everybody has expected them

365
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 6: to look, including themselves. You know, they dominated Minnesota, held

366
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 6: him the seventy yards rushing, six sacks, thirteen quarterback hits,

367
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 6: two takeaways. That's what they paid all that money for.

368
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:26,360
Speaker 6: With that defense, and so they finally got to got

369
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 6: their money's worth against Minnesota. Now we'll see if that continues,

370
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 6: but there's no doubt that was the best they've looked

371
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 6: all year.

372
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 1: Has Harmon made a big difference the rookie defensive lineman

373
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:37,679
Speaker 1: since he came back from injury.

374
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,199
Speaker 6: I don't want to say he's made a big difference,

375
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 6: but he certainly has made a difference because one, it

376
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:47,679
Speaker 6: gives him a talented guy up front who both you

377
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 6: know can play the run and rush the passer if

378
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 6: he has to. But there's no doubt having him in

379
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 6: there gives them that extra body to be able to

380
00:19:58,400 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 6: rotate some of the others.

381
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 3: I A.

382
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 6: Black has been a big positive as well. But there's

383
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 6: no question what they see from Derek Carmon is certainly

384
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,920
Speaker 6: why they feel they drafted him where they did, and

385
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 6: for just you know, for missing the games that he

386
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 6: did early. He's played very very well and he has

387
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 6: made a difference.

388
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,400
Speaker 1: We got a big matchup Sunday, Jerry between two guys

389
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 1: who will never be on the field together, TJ. Watt

390
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 1: Miles Garrett, two of the very best defensive players in football,

391
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: two big money contracts, two edge rushers. Do you think

392
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 1: TJ sees this game is bigger because Miles Garrett's on

393
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:32,640
Speaker 1: the other team.

394
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 6: I don't think there's any question mark professional athletes when

395
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 6: they you know, and he's been asked about, you know,

396
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 6: in the past, about who should be defensive Player of

397
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 6: the year. When you get those situations, there's no question

398
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 6: about it. As a professional athlete, you want to outperform

399
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 6: the guy to whom you're always kind of compared to

400
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 6: or competing against on the other team. I will say

401
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 6: this with the retirement of Aaron Donald, to me, Miles

402
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 6: Garrett is probably the most disruptive player in the NFL

403
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 6: because of how he plays, where they use them, how

404
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 6: they move them, and you know, his numbers, while they're good,

405
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 6: may not. It's kind of like Aaron Donald. Aaron Donald's

406
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 6: numbers weren't weren't eye popping, but man oh man, the

407
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 6: other teams had to do a lot change their game

408
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 6: plan to account for him always know where he was.

409
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 6: And Miles Garrett is that kind of player in that vein.

410
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 1: The Steelers have basically lately been using seven offensive linemen

411
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: on a lot of snaps what with Spencer Anderson's the

412
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 1: extra tackle and Mount Washington is the tight end. Will

413
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,159
Speaker 1: that continue Sunday given the threat of Garrett and how

414
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:44,920
Speaker 1: much does that help in that situation?

415
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 6: Well, Mark, Yeah, they won't with that heavy package against

416
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,399
Speaker 6: the Vikings because of the front that they play, and

417
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 6: I think you can you'll continue to see it. I

418
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 6: don't know that you'll see Spencer Anderson play nineteen snaps again,

419
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,959
Speaker 6: and you'll see Darnell Washington play the majority of the steps.

420
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:09,360
Speaker 6: I mean, Pat Fryerman has had fifteen snaps against the Vikings.

421
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,640
Speaker 6: He's played fewer snaps so far this year than both

422
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 6: tight ends Johnny Smith and Darnell Washington. I think you'll

423
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,920
Speaker 6: see that change against the Browns. You know, they it's

424
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 6: every week market, it's always evolving, and just because what

425
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 6: they did one week was success doesn't mean they won't

426
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 6: replicate it or try to replicate it. But you always

427
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 6: see him adjusting because the other teams start getting you know,

428
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 6: they make changes too to account for what the Steelers did,

429
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 6: you know in the previous game. So we'll see. I

430
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 6: don't think they're going to abandon it because they had

431
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,160
Speaker 6: such success running the football with it, and of course

432
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,360
Speaker 6: that's what they want to do. Barkers run the football.

433
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the seven lineman protects Aaron Rodgers too. My

434
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: only concern there is it prevents Aaron Rodgers from being

435
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,919
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers because it depletes his number of targets. And

436
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: I just don't think you beat good team in big

437
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,479
Speaker 1: games using seven offensive linemen.

438
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 2: And I don't think he come from behind against anybody.

439
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 6: Well, that's for sure, Mark, and I agree with you,

440
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 6: And you've heard me say many times. They didn't bring

441
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers in to be a mailman. He's a gunslinger,

442
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 6: and so you know, they want somebody to hand the

443
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 6: ball off. They can find a lot of people to

444
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 6: do that. But obviously it goes beyond that. Aaron Rodgers

445
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,120
Speaker 6: at the line of scrimmage is the best in the league.

446
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:26,120
Speaker 6: He's seen everything. You see him getting in and out

447
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:30,199
Speaker 6: of not necessarily plays, but formations and routes for his

448
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 6: wide receivers, and he's just so good at it. And so,

449
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 6: but you're right, I think you're going to see a

450
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 6: little bit more friar moooth this week. You know, No,

451
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 6: Calvin Austin, I don't know. We haven't seen a lot

452
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 6: of downfield passing. We haven't seen a lot of dropback

453
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 6: passing if you think about it. From Aaron Rodgers, they

454
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,880
Speaker 6: haven't been in the red zone a lot, only thirteen times.

455
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,880
Speaker 6: That's the sixth fews in the NFL. Granted they played

456
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 6: one fewer game than twenty eight other teams. When they'd

457
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,360
Speaker 6: have been in the red zone, they've been efficient converting

458
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 6: nine times and that's pretty good. I think that's eighth

459
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 6: in the league.

460
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 1: What about what about John Who? Because John didn't play

461
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:10,719
Speaker 1: much against Minnesota.

462
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 6: Either, same reason as Friarmuth. They wanted a bigger, bigger

463
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 6: lineup in there. You know, John Who's even smaller than

464
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 6: Pat Friarmuth. I got a kick out of Mike Tumblin

465
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,679
Speaker 6: the other day putting Connor Hayward and Pat Friarmuth in

466
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 6: the same sentence in terms of musical stature. In Connor

467
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,119
Speaker 6: Haywood's six foot and two thirty, Pat Fryarmuth is sixty

468
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 6: five almost two sixty. I fairly don't think there's a

469
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 6: that's an apt comparison. But John who Smith is even

470
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 6: smaller than that, so that's not what he does well.

471
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 6: But I think they start they're going to need to

472
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,719
Speaker 6: start getting those guys, especially Friarmuth involved in the passing

473
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 6: game more, especially without Calvin.

474
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 1: Austin, with Laren apparently available, who's going to be the

475
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 1: number one backer will be like by committee?

476
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's not even enough for debate Mark Jalen Warren

477
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 6: as they're running back. But what we have seen all along,

478
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 6: even when Jaylen Warren is healthy, Kenny Gainwell plays a

479
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 6: lot and he will continue to play a lot. He

480
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 6: certainly showed last week what he can do. They they

481
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 6: kind of knew that. I always liked him when he

482
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 6: was with the Eagles, Mark, and but I don't think

483
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 6: anything he did last week is going to change the

484
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 6: pecking order. I really don't know that it's going to

485
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 6: amount to more snaps for game. Well, maybe a few,

486
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 6: but he's been playing a lot anyhow, even when Jalen

487
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 6: Warren's been healthy. So you know, we'll see, but there's

488
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 6: no question it might be more instead of number one

489
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 6: and number two. Maybe it gets more to what we

490
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 6: saw the last couple of years with Najie Harrison, Warren

491
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 6: one and one A.

492
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,400
Speaker 2: The running backs have sixty four percent of the offensive touches.

493
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,159
Speaker 2: I'm not sure what that means. Jarre, what do you think.

494
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm not sure what it means either, but what

495
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 6: it does mean is that's kind of how they you know,

496
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 6: they don't want Aaron Rodgers is certainly at least right

497
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 6: now throwing thirty five to forty times a game. I

498
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 6: think in the opener mark right, he threw thirty three

499
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 6: times and he was sacked four times, So that's thirty

500
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 6: seven dropbacks.

501
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 3: I don't think they really.

502
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 6: Want to play like that, even though he played very well,

503
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 6: very productive, had four touchdown throws, and so I think

504
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 6: they've tried to develop the run game, get you know,

505
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 6: be able to use play action, even though we saw

506
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 6: play action work again in New York took perfection even

507
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 6: though they couldn't run the ball. But it's something that

508
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,400
Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers does very well. But I just think it's

509
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 6: a byproduct of kind of how they want to start

510
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 6: the season to get that running game going, and we

511
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,399
Speaker 6: saw a little evidence of that last week. Obviously, one

512
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 6: hundred and thirty one yards not bad.

513
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 2: Where's Cleveland at Flacko's gone?

514
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 1: Five workers are starting, including Dylan Gabriel quarterback. Are the

515
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,679
Speaker 1: Browns moving forward or just moving deck chairs around on

516
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 1: the Titanic mark?

517
00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 6: That's what they are, you know they and that's you know,

518
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,199
Speaker 6: it's a firm Denaley d Are depending on which is

519
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 6: the most dysfunctional franchise in the National Football League. And

520
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 6: it's hard for me to say they have a plan

521
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 6: because I don't think they ever have a plan. It's

522
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 6: why they flounder around the way they do year after year.

523
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 6: Even when they had something going with Baker Mayfield, they

524
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:23,399
Speaker 6: tried to move away from him and bring into Shaun

525
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,920
Speaker 6: Watson and that's just blown up in their face. So

526
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 6: they bring in two veteran quarterbacks. They trade for Kenny Pickett,

527
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,159
Speaker 6: they bring in Joe Flacco, and now they're going to

528
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 6: go into a regular season NFL game with two rookie

529
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,639
Speaker 6: quarterbacks who have never won a game. And you know,

530
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 6: to me now that Deshaun Watson could come back this year,

531
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,920
Speaker 6: that's a possibility. But while the Bengals make a move

532
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 6: to get a veteran, which tells you they probably think

533
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 6: they can still be in the race, when the Browns

534
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 6: do what they do, that tells me then you know

535
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,920
Speaker 6: that they don't have a plan to stay in a race.

536
00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 6: They're just going to stockpile some picks and tried play

537
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 6: for another year. But they do that all the time, Mark,

538
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,479
Speaker 6: and it never works out. And that's not starts at

539
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,119
Speaker 6: the very top of the organization.

540
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 1: It strikes me that their owner wants Shedor to play

541
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,200
Speaker 1: because he's clearing the path for it by trading Flaco.

542
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 2: The coach doesn't.

543
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 1: And there's even a report Jerry that with the Flacco gun,

544
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,719
Speaker 1: Bailey Zappi might be the number two quarterback in Shador

545
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: still might be the third string.

546
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 6: Well that's possible, but again that could be up to

547
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 6: the owner because it appears that he's calling the shots.

548
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 6: Stefanski did not even know that Flacco was going to

549
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 6: be traded, and so you can see where that's coming from.

550
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 6: It's the same reason they drafted Shador Sanders. That was

551
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 6: not the coach or the GM, that was the owner

552
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 6: telling them what to do. And so but it depends, Mark,

553
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 6: if you elevate a player, elevate not sign them, elevate

554
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 6: a player from the practice squad. I'm still trying to

555
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 6: get this determined from the league, to get some clarity

556
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 6: whether he has to be the number two if he's elevated,

557
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 6: or you know, he can be the third quarterback if

558
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 6: you But if you sign him to the active roster,

559
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 6: then you could designate them to be whatever you want.

560
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 6: But if he's merely elevated, I think I think he

561
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 6: has to be the number two quarterback.

562
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 1: A lot of people were saying the Steelers have the

563
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 1: AFC North locked up, but I bet they do lead

564
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 1: it by the time they played Baltimore on December seventh,

565
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 1: which may or may not be a key game.

566
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 2: What do you think, how sikuur are they?

567
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: Because I know they are only three and one jerion

568
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 1: and they are not without flaw, but the division is

569
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 1: in shambles.

570
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, Mark, you know, I went back and look, it's

571
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 6: the first time since Bill Kauer was coached in nineteen

572
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 6: ninety two that the Steelers have led the division after

573
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 6: five weeks and the other three teams in the division

574
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 6: were under five hundreds. Never happened before, And not that

575
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 6: that's a historic, significant moment or occasion, but I think

576
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 6: what it points up is the Steelers have built themselves

577
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 6: a nice little advantage. But Mark, way too early. A

578
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 6: couple of things. The schedule's been easier, it gets harder.

579
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 6: The Ravens are playing the hardest schedule started the schedule

580
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 6: in the league. The Rams this week are the fifth

581
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 6: twenty twenty four playoff team, they will have already faced theirners,

582
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 6: schedule will get easier, and we know the Steelers history

583
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 6: in December. Does that mean it's going to repeat. No,

584
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 6: but for the last six years we've seen them have

585
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 6: three game losing streaks in December.

586
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 3: So it's a.

587
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 6: Long way to go. They have a nice two and

588
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 6: a half game lead on on the Ravens, which is

589
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 6: what interests them the most, but long way to go. Mark.

590
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 2: I think the Steelers win Sunday Jarre, how about you?

591
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 1: But I bet it's a one score game because I

592
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 1: feel like that's what Tomlin wants every week.

593
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 2: And I bet it's a rock fight.

594
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it's gonna be a low scoring game, Mark,

595
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 6: And hey, look it could be one score. I have

596
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 6: it like at twenty three twenty three ten, and I

597
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 6: think is what I said. But you know, we're seeing

598
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 6: the offense, you know, unlike last year, start quick and

599
00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:00,120
Speaker 6: when they have to finish strong, they have it's and

600
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 6: in between, you know where they haven't performed very well.

601
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 6: They haven't run a lot of offensive plays. Mark. They're

602
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 6: averaging like fifty two plays. The opponent's averaging like sixty six. Now,

603
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 6: part of that is a byproduct of the defense, but

604
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 6: those plays were inflated last week by those last two series.

605
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 6: But I think after after what we saw in Ireland,

606
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 6: the way the defense played and the offense being you know,

607
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 6: fairly efficient, especially in the red zone. Uh, you know,

608
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 6: I think it's gonna be more than a one score game.

609
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 6: But Mark, it's the NFL. We see it every week.

610
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 6: Who knows what can happen.

611
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 2: Jerry, great stuff, Thank you for taking your time.

612
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 6: We'll do it again next week always, Mark, good chat

613
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 6: with you, my friend.

614
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 1: That's Jerry Dooak in the post because that brought to

615
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 1: us by bud Light. Easy to drink, easy to enjoy.

616
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,000
Speaker 1: Now it's time to ask Mark anything eight three three

617
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 1: four thirty nine. That's eight three three four one nine

641
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 6: Hey, Mark, I was wondering at home when you're doing

642
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 6: your work, like, what.

643
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 2: Kind of setup do you have?

644
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 3: Do you just have a laptop, a tipwriter?

645
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 1: What do you do you mean when I prepare my

646
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:38,880
Speaker 1: notes for the show, yeah, or writing well and I'm

647
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 1: doing my call for the trip I have a laptop

648
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 1: on my kitchen table.

649
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 2: Because my kitchen's very well lit.

650
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 1: I feel comfortable there easy access to everything to eat

651
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 1: or drink, So I write it on a laptop in

652
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: my kitchen. For my show, my notes are almost exclusively handwritten.

653
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 2: If I'm working at.

654
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 1: Home, I'm generally sitting in my big easy chair watching TV.

655
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 1: He kind of his background music, background noise, whatever you

656
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 1: describe it as.

657
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:08,920
Speaker 2: And I make my notes with paper on a clipboard.

658
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 3: Gotcha, thank you?

659
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 1: Okay, if you're inspired by that, you're a less Serman

660
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 1: than I would hope you are.

661
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:20,360
Speaker 2: Let's go to a talkback.

662
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: Hey, Mark or Ryan Graves ever play another game in Pittsburgh.

663
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:27,720
Speaker 2: Again, that's a good question.

664
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 1: Obviously signed Graves to a contract that was too much

665
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 1: and for too long. He's in Wilkes, having cleared waivers.

666
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 1: He could be called back up christin Jarry was last year.

667
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 1: But my hunch is no. My hunch is they've turned

668
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 1: the page on that. And I gotta be honest, I

669
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:47,280
Speaker 1: think Graves is a gutless wonder. I think when challenged

670
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 1: to improve, he he turned tail and fled even this

671
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:56,360
Speaker 1: year in a more systematic system, a defensive way. Of

672
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,720
Speaker 1: playing that Dann mws is trying to install. It should

673
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 1: have been fitted him. He should have looked better in

674
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,839
Speaker 1: camp than he did than under the Celly system, which

675
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 1: did not fit him well with all the pinching and

676
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 1: all the activating. But again, Graves didn't rise to the

677
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:13,479
Speaker 1: challenge of camp or in the exhibition game. So I think,

678
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 1: barring emergency, he will not play another game here in Pittsburgh.

679
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:21,959
Speaker 7: Let's go to a talkback kid, I said, Virginias, I'm

680
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 7: just wondering what your thoughts are about Tarantino bringing out

681
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 7: the whole Killed Bill saga two parts in the one

682
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 7: four hour feature length movie for a couple of extra

683
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,279
Speaker 7: bits cheer man.

684
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's overkill. I'm really not that interested.

685
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,399
Speaker 2: I mean, are Tarantino's movies overkill in the first place,

686
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 2: too long? I mean they're good, but no, I'm not interested.

687
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 1: And the Kill Bill, I'm not sure that was his

688
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: better work those two movies. The first one was okay,

689
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:56,000
Speaker 1: second one, and I did like when the girl got

690
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,800
Speaker 1: buried alive though, that was that was a pretty good scene.

691
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 2: Let's go to Mike. Mike, you're on with double M.

692
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 6: Hey, Mark, thanks for the call, Hey, When do you

693
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:10,760
Speaker 6: think the NHL started going like softer with like hitting

694
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 6: and all that stuff.

695
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 1: I think, as in with almost any UH sports league,

696
00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 1: including the NFL, especially perhaps the NFL, once the players

697
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 1: get really highly paid, I think that the league will

698
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,880
Speaker 1: take more precaution to make sure those highly paid players

699
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 1: don't get hurt.

700
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:31,920
Speaker 2: Don't you think that's a big part of it?

701
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:34,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, for sure.

702
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:36,120
Speaker 2: And I don't.

703
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: Think the NFL is necessarily sissified, that it's pusillanimous by

704
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 1: any means. I just think it's faster. I don't think

705
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,879
Speaker 1: faster and softer are the same thing. I think it's

706
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 1: more faster than softer.

707
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:51,000
Speaker 6: Agreed, I understand that.

708
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 1: And I and I hate and I hate the fighting.

709
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 1: I always have hated the fighting. There's no place for

710
00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 1: the fighting, right. It's neanderthal and it's stupid. Let's go

711
00:36:58,520 --> 00:36:58,960
Speaker 1: to Tom.

712
00:36:59,400 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 3: Tom.

713
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:00,479
Speaker 2: You're all with Mark.

714
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 6: Hey, Mark, Yes, Tom Selik here with some gun suppressors.

715
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 6: I thought you might be interested in buying.

716
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, this isn't funny. I know you're thinking it's funny.

717
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 1: Just won't be so I'm gonna get ready. And you

718
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 1: didn't sound at all like Tom Selick. So let's go

719
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 1: to a talkback.

720
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 4: I'm just curious if you could only pick one more

721
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 4: protein to eat for the rest of your life, whether

722
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:30,959
Speaker 4: that's beef, chicken, pork, you know whatever, which one would

723
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:31,279
Speaker 4: you pick?

724
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 2: Thanks, that's actually a real good question.

725
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 1: What protein if I could pick to eat for the

726
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,720
Speaker 1: rest of my life would I pick. Wouldn't be chicken,

727
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: even though I eat a lot of chicken, wouldn't be pork,

728
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 1: even though I like pulled pork. So that's down to

729
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:50,759
Speaker 1: beef or fish. I really like fish, but you know,

730
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 1: I'd go with beef. I'd go with prime rip. But boy,

731
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 1: I miss fish. I miss fish more than chicken. And

732
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,360
Speaker 1: I don't really fish that often, but I really like

733
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 1: it when I do. I say it like whether it's

734
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 1: salmon or halibut, even the occasional swordfish, shrimp, and boy,

735
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,000
Speaker 1: there's a wider selection of taste if you would stick

736
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 1: with seafood over beef.

737
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 2: But no, I'm gonna stick with beef.

738
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:20,319
Speaker 1: These line open four one two, excuse me, eight three

739
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,880
Speaker 1: to three, four one two ninety nine thirty And by

740
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 1: the way, to get back to the question, the guy

741
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:28,480
Speaker 1: asked yesterday, I gave the wrong answer. He asked me,

742
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 1: if I could interview any athlete I have an interviewed,

743
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,440
Speaker 1: who would it be? And I think I said Gretzki.

744
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 1: I definitely said Dan Marino. You know it would be

745
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 1: no contest. Number one uber Alis Steven Gerrard, former Liverpool captain,

746
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 1: one of my three favorite athletes ever with Sid and Mario,

747
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 1: no doubt about that. If I could interview Steven Gerard,

748
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 1: that would be a real thrill for me. I'm not

749
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,879
Speaker 1: even sure I could get through it, and even over

750
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 1: the phone, I'd be just incredibly starstruck. So number one

751
00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 1: athlete to interview of all time, at least Stephen Gerard,
