I'm not I'm not certain the Lions could 124 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 3: go Jamiir Gibbs could run for a lot, David Montgomery. 125 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 3: They've got a lot of weapons. I'm not really sure. 126 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 3: So Jamar Chase against the Bears. I don't think Joe 127 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 3: Flacco is gonna play, which I hope you're okay with that. 128 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,919 Speaker 2: I know Joe Flacco, you really you really love, But 129 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 2: almost as much as Greg McElroy. 130 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 3: Jake Browning, uh and Jamar Chase against Nashan, Right, I 131 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 3: think I'm gonna go with that selection. 132 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 1: So basically, that's your way of saying you don't care 133 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: about the baby game. 134 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 2: No, No, it's my way of saying, that's gonna throw 135 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: a dart and take a name. I'm gonna win the game. 136 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna say jam Jamar Chase catches, he scores, 137 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 3: He catches like a million passes. For some reason, I 138 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 3: say this every week they allow Jamar Chase to just 139 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 3: run slants, and I don't feel like Justin Jefferson ever 140 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 3: runs a slant. 141 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: It doesn't make any sense to me.

Yep. 204 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 1: And then four people asked the same Oliver question but 205 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: different ways, and the press conference was over. 206 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 2: We missed you there. I would have loved to hear 207 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 2: you phrasing question. So you'll see me today. 208 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 1: I can't wait, no doubt, asking those pressing questions about 209 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: mismanagement and stuff like that to see where that goes. 210 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: Funny what happens when you go face to face with somebody, right, 211 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: all right? 212 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 2: Three? 213 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: Two? So if we were to lay, if we were 214 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: to lay the five four top five receivers in this game, 215 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 1: So let's look at it this way in the baby game. Uh, 216 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 1: it's not current situation. And no, I don't know who 217 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: your quarterback is, but there's a draft and you got 218 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 1: all these receivers and you can draft one first, one, second, 219 00:10:58,960 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: and so on? 220 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 2: How would you align or lay out the top five? Wow? 221 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,959 Speaker 2: Tight ends included or no, just wide receivers. 222 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: So Alan, you guys can just talk it out, Okay, justin, 223 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: let's go number five. Let's go five. No, No, let's 224 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: go one. It makes it easier, Okay. Number one would 225 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: be Jefferson justin, no question. Okay, why Jefferson and I agree? 226 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: But why I want to hear you guys are a 227 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:23,839 Speaker 1: league football mindes. 228 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 2: Just all right? Three? Two? 229 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: If why Jefferson absolutely over on and Ras Saint Brown, 230 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: I'll go first. 231 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 3: I guess my opinion is just justin. I mean, he's 232 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 3: he is everything. I mean, he's tough, he's the best 233 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 3: route runner in the NFL. His attitude is spectacular. The 234 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 3: way he leads has really impressed me over the last 235 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:47,559 Speaker 3: couple of years. 236 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, and and I mean every you know, he's he's 237 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 2: better than. 238 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 3: You think after the catch, he gets open, he doesn't 239 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 3: drop passes it the catch. 240 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,319 Speaker 2: Point just so reliable. Yeah. 241 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, And obviously I'm and Ra would be number two, 242 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 5: So that's where we're arguing. 243 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm am and Ra I think is absolutely terrific. 244 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 5: I think, right now though you're looking at Justin Jefferson, 245 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 5: who has has continued to succeed, continued to produce with 246 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 5: six or seven different quarterbacks over the last few years here, 247 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 5: and so regardless of circumstances, he makes the catches. Regardless 248 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 5: of the circumstances, he runs every route, catches every ball. 249 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 2: The drops don't exist. 250 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 5: And the leadership in the the the attitude angle, I 251 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 5: think all of that plays in. 252 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 2: I would put JJ ahead of Amen Rock. 253 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: Okay, So why aman Ro Saint Brown's second and not 254 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: Jordan Addison or Jamison Williams. Yeah, I mean, Amen Ro 255 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: is not a deep threat, never has been. He's not 256 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: super fast. Uh, he's diminutive as receivers go. And he's 257 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: not a fast guy. That's why I got taken in 258 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: the fourth round. 259 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, but he's just so savvy and so physical he 260 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 3: can you know. Part of the reason they are so good, 261 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 3: and Chad talked about this is they. 262 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 2: Marry the run the pass so well. 263 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 3: If what Tevin O'Connell always talks about wanting the Vikings 264 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 3: offense to be, they do it at such a level. 265 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 3: Part of it is because they have receivers who play 266 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,079 Speaker 3: such a role in the run blocking phase like aman 267 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 3: Ra does. So I just and and yeah, he is 268 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 3: not the vertical burner that that even Jordan Addison or 269 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 3: or Jamison Williams are. 270 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 5: But but that's that makes it even more impressive than 271 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 5: Rendee catches one for eight and takes it seventy. He 272 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 5: might be and his my I mean again, even comparing 273 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 5: him to Justin Jefferson, are there two or three better 274 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 5: route runners? 275 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 2: Are there two or three better position. 276 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 5: Guys field guys that find spots and zones and turn 277 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 5: up and turn that five six yard catch into fifteen 278 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 5: and twenty. Im and Ra is one of the smartest 279 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,199 Speaker 5: players on the field, I think. 280 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: For the kiddies jagging him, so jj Justin Jefferson. First, 281 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: I'm on ros Saint Brown. Second, third, do we go Addison, 282 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: Jamison Williams, Khalif Raymond or Jalen Naylor. 283 00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:00,079 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, it's Jordan Addison. Yeah it's Addison. I 284 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 3: think we would both go Addison. Yes, I just I 285 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 3: mean when this guy is healthy, available on the field, 286 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 3: and engaged, he is such a good route runner. He 287 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 3: has the vertical speed. He also is reliable at the 288 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,599 Speaker 3: catch point. I mean, you just don't have the I 289 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 3: mean he's not a physical presence near the line of scrimmage, 290 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 3: but just as like a separator as a receiver. 291 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 2: I mean he is up there. I mean in the leite. 292 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 5: He's up there, and maybe I'm maybe I'm discounting him 293 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 5: and I can't. We'll talk to Jason Hatch about this 294 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 5: at eleven and he will. 295 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 2: He will tell me. 296 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 5: That Jamison Williams is not a one trick wide receiver, 297 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 5: but it feels that way, and in some ways maybe 298 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 5: he's held back with how the Lions use him. But 299 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 5: as much as the focus is on aman Ra, it's 300 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 5: Jamison Williams with that off that play action and he's 301 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 5: five yards free of his safety and you air that 302 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 5: thing out and that's where those explosives come in. Jamison 303 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 5: Williams certainly a weapon that I think most teams would 304 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 5: love to have on their team. But Addison certainly the 305 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 5: do it all combined with a lot of the speed 306 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 5: and and the route running, the preciseness of his game 307 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 5: is better. 308 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 2: Now, let me tell you this. 309 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 3: If Jamison Williams is running running wide open over the 310 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 3: middle of the field on Sunday afternoons and you're seeing 311 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 3: that speed in real time. Yeah, we're gonna we're not 312 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 3: gonna look good. And both we sitting here Viking like 313 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 3: this guy when he has the ball in his hands 314 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 3: or running vertical, I mean, the speed is at an 315 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 3: entirely different level. And I do his presence also to me, 316 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 3: like it's like a vertical stretch that opens up space 317 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 3: in the intermediate area of the field and the shorter 318 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 3: areas of the field for amen ra in a way 319 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 3: that you probably don't. 320 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 5: Well, that's a complimentary angle right again, you know, getting 321 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 5: you know, we see it with Jefferson and Addison on 322 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 5: the field. 323 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 2: They have different. 324 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 3: Body types and different skill sets and like they they 325 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 3: have their tools in the tool belt are so different 326 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 3: that they can press certain buttons when they need to. 327 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: What's the trifecta, Jefferson, Alman Ross, Saint Brown. It's a 328 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: Breeders Cup Friday and Saturday. So I'm all about Trifecta's 329 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: who fill the bottom of the try Yeah Addison? Okay, 330 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 1: so the super effective bottom of the top four filled 331 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 1: by Jamison Williams. Now, if you want to get to 332 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: the pent effecta or if you want to hit the 333 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: pick five with five singles and you got Justin Jefferson, 334 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 1: a'm and Ross Saint Brown, Jordan Addison, Jamison Williams. How 335 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: do we finish that fifth spot? 336 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 2: What do we do? 337 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 3: Not Ty Felton. For me, it would probably be Jalen Naylor. 338 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 3: Jalen Naylor would be the guy Ramon. 339 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. 340 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: Now, with Raymond, if you draft him, you get the 341 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: returning ability boom. 342 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 2: And he's really good. He is, and he. 343 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 3: Did dust somebody last year in one of the games. 344 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 3: Believe it was Stefan Gilmour maybe just fell down in 345 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 3: the red zone and it was a Khalif Raymond touchdown 346 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 3: over the middle, that's great. So yeah, but Jalen Naylor, 347 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 3: I I seriously believe this, Jalen Naylor. If if other 348 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 3: teams leading into free agency this year, if the Vikings 349 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 3: don't resign him and he hits the market and there 350 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 3: are other teams who watched the film in terms of 351 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 3: their evaluation, he is going to get paid. Jalen Naylor, 352 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,719 Speaker 3: and he's been available. I give him a ton of credit. 353 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 3: Had the hand injury coming out of training camp, did 354 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 3: not miss the game, has been really solid and I 355 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 3: guess I mean Adam Thielen would be a receiver that 356 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 3: we we haven't talked about. 357 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, well he moves the chains on third down. That's 358 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: about all we've seen, not in the Bears game. 359 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,239 Speaker 2: Pointers. First of all, what is it when you hit 360 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 2: all five in horse racing? 361 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 5: We're gonna call it a pick five? Just to pick five? Okay, 362 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 5: Now I've consecutive like a Quinn Tupple. Now there's like 363 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 5: some kind effective, but are super high five? I don't 364 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 5: really know. 365 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 2: I just do show bets. 366 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 5: So I mean, I just try to keep it saw 367 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 5: at Chelsea Bill ups the There's part of me like situationally, 368 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 5: if you're just and it pains me to do it. 369 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,400 Speaker 5: In some ways, I think Khalif Raymond, and we saw 370 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 5: him earlier. I think it was with the Titans. Really, 371 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 5: I think over the course of his career situationally, Khaliff 372 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 5: Raymond has been the guy that has his speed. He 373 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,439 Speaker 5: has been the secondary or to the third option. He 374 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 5: does have the return ability, which matters. Whereas we saw 375 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 5: the Muffett Lambell a year ago. I'm not trusting Naylor 376 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 5: back there ever. Again. 377 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 2: Uh, in some ways I kind of have. 378 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 5: To go Khalif just because of his utility and how 379 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 5: he's been used, and I think he has a better 380 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 5: overall resume than Jalen. 381 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 2: Naylor, despite the fact I. 382 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 5: Prefer I would prefer to say his name, but I 383 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 5: think you get more run out of Khalif and he's 384 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 5: been more productive in his career. 385 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 1: Now I respect what Nordo just did. Uh Naylor might 386 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,479 Speaker 1: have have had more touchdowns last year than Nail than 387 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 1: Raymonds had in his entire career receiving uh so the 388 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: res from a resume standpoint, I might dispute that a 389 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 1: little bit, even though in truncated fashion. However, the only 390 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,120 Speaker 1: way to turn a little into a lot and manipulate 391 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,919 Speaker 1: a pick by pull, you gotta have a long shots 392 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 1: body in there. 393 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 2: And he got his long shots body. Believe Raymond. 394 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 5: I almost went long shot with the slow because I 395 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 5: think he has two or three catches and. 396 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: I brought two of them are touching one and three 397 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 1: catches to TD. 398 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 5: And their unbelievable, you know, old school Sports Center top 399 00:18:57,840 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 5: ten touchdowns. 400 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 2: So this just this, this lockhat is going to be 401 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 2: somebody if we're focused on digging into the red zone. 402 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 3: There he's the guy to watch for if they go 403 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 3: four wide. There were some people in the Vikings building 404 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 3: who liked this law on the draft. 405 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, did you hear that before he caught two 406 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: touchdowns on three? 407 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 2: Absolutely heard it back in March. 408 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 1: That's the voice of Alex Lewis with Eric Nordquist, producer from. 409 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 2: Ninety Tesla because he's electric, always beautiful. 410 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 1: I'll let that miller handle that.

The Lions run defense is good, 433 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 2: uh prety seven to seven a game. It's a fourth 434 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 2: best in the NFL. Yeah, I mean they're good there. 435 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 3: Their edges play the run well, whether it's Aiden Hutchinson 436 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 3: or al Kadeen Muhammad. This guy who kind of flashed 437 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 3: for me a little bit on Film five, Seleem McNeil, 438 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 3: came back and I kind of just like forgot how 439 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 3: good this guy is, or not forgot, but just didn't 440 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 3: probably you know, credit it enough. And then DJ Reider 441 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 3: is really good in the run. They've got some nose tackles. 442 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 3: A guy I think his name's Roy Lopez who will 443 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 3: play it pretty well. Long hair the rookie Tylee Williams 444 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 3: will play the run and then their linebackers ANZELONEI is 445 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 3: like the Mario to Andrew van Gikles Luigi. Like those 446 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 3: guys are they look the same, they're a little different. 447 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 3: On one's numbers thirty four once is forty three. 448 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 2: And then Jack Campbell's gotten really good. Yeah. 449 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 3: Jack Campbell diagnoses things really well. He's not a great blitzer, 450 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 3: at least that didn't pop for me on film, but 451 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 3: he figures out, he finds where to be and he 452 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 3: can get off blocks. So it's gonna be hard to 453 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,719 Speaker 3: establish a run game the Vikings, in my opinion, like 454 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 3: it needs to be creative, whether it's jet sweep to 455 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 3: Jalen Naylor, whether it's utilizing the screen game as an 456 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 3: extension of the run game. They have to find a 457 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 3: way to prevent from being in third and long, because 458 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 3: if you're in third and long against this defense where 459 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 3: you've got to drop back and air it out down 460 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 3: the field with this quarterback right now, that is just 461 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 3: going to be a suboptimal situation. Just have to find 462 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 3: a way to match the physicality. That's why I thought 463 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 3: what Chad talked about so much in the first hour 464 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 3: was right and good. 465 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,360 Speaker 5: The con the con has to I mean, looking at 466 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 5: establishing the run here. I think there has to be 467 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 5: a commitment to it, specifically early, and it's not and 468 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 5: Alec basically laid out everything in terms of what they're 469 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 5: up against from a physicality standpoint, I think reps in 470 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 5: rhythm means a lot to this, and the commitment will 471 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 5: start with you get one out of Mason, you get 472 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,159 Speaker 5: one out of Aaron Jones, don't be afraid early in 473 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:57,880 Speaker 5: this game to go. 474 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 2: Back to it on second and nine. I've just seen 475 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 2: out of. 476 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 5: Flow here from a play, and whether it's a scripting 477 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,959 Speaker 5: standpoint down in distance, we saw it in the Chargers 478 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 5: game where you're down fourteen to three. You only ran 479 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 5: it five times in the first half. All those things included. 480 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 5: If it's a health standpoint because you're not liking what 481 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 5: you saw out of your backup offensive lineman, you have 482 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 5: Darisaw and you have O'Neill. 483 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 2: If it is a. 484 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 5: Protecting JJ and get this thing moving standpoint, we need 485 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,400 Speaker 5: to see more reps from that standpoint as well. When 486 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 5: they've committed to it this season, It's been in very 487 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 5: short doses, but Kevin O'Connell. 488 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 2: It's hard to believe this. You'll be shocked. Kevin O'Connell could. 489 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 5: Draw up some pretty damn good run and some run action, 490 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 5: whether it's getting Mason to the boundary and when we 491 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 5: get some push inside, we can be effective there as well. 492 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 5: To his point to Alex point with the screens and 493 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,679 Speaker 5: just mixing it up the swing passes. Tried to do 494 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 5: it early on in complete Daron Jones in the Chargers game. 495 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 5: But the mix combined with true overall run against slam 496 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 5: your head against a brick wall commitment that needs to happen. 497 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 5: I think it actually can have in this weekend because 498 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 5: it'll be so contrary to what we've shown through the 499 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 5: previous seven Vikes. 500 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 1: Bites from Buffalo Wild wins chan Assen for Allen Alabama 501 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 1: cornerback Terry on Arnold, He's missed the last two, should 502 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,879 Speaker 1: be back this weekend. Zero interceptions in his career to 503 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,640 Speaker 1: this point. Very Higley rapped it. What do you think 504 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 1: of Terry on Arnold and purportedly was good with the 505 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 1: Grimson time. 506 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. 507 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 3: I mean he was a first round pick for a reason. 508 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:34,199 Speaker 3: The guy has really good athleticism, he's physical and I mean, 509 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 3: I put this in our notes that we'll talk about 510 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 3: obviously later, but like, the way this Lion's team plays 511 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 3: coverage for me is like Flora is ish in that 512 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 3: that is their identity. Like they are gonna get up 513 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 3: in your face, they're gonna grab you, they're gonna be physical, 514 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,360 Speaker 3: they're gonna be annoying, and it's kind of on you 515 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 3: just to manage that. The receivers have to release off 516 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage, well, they have to match the physicality. 517 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 2: They have to not complain if penalties. 518 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 3: Aren't called, because they're not to be called every snap, 519 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 3: and that is a major key to this game. Like 520 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 3: do I think terry On Arnold can stick with Justin Jefferson. 521 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 2: One on one? 522 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 3: Like, absolutely not in any respect. But they have done 523 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:14,360 Speaker 3: a good job against Justin in recent years playing double coverage, 524 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,919 Speaker 3: which is why, like for me, this becomes a can 525 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 3: this be a one on one TJ. 526 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 2: Hockinson game? 527 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 3: And and like there's not much that we've seen that 528 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 3: proves that it can be, but at some point you 529 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 3: need that to happen if they're gonna defend these guy 530 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 3: Tyrion Arnold, you know, he's a young player developing player 531 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 3: doesn't stand out as some exceptional cornerback. 532 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,199 Speaker 2: But these guys are feisty. I will, I hope I 533 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:40,199 Speaker 2: don't eat these words. 534 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 5: Terry on Arnold strikes me as being incredibly undisciplined. And 535 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,679 Speaker 5: whether it's the penalties he can be had if we 536 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 5: get those one on one opportunities so certainly an a 537 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:51,199 Speaker 5: topic into it. 538 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 2: How much does how much are the Lions. 539 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,439 Speaker 5: Able to get pressure without blitzing will factor into what 540 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 5: Terry on Arnold is able to do against Justin Jefferson, 541 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 5: but very talented, super athletic, not a ball hawking playmaker 542 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,880 Speaker 5: at this stage of his career. After missing two games 543 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 5: all those penalties, he gets super handsy, he finds himself 544 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 5: in the wrong, wrong spot. He's not always tracking the 545 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 5: ball when he's in coverage downfield. There may be an 546 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 5: opportunity for us to get at Terry on Arnold, and 547 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 5: I hope I don't. 548 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 2: Eat my words. 549 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:26,239 Speaker 1: The the ref this weekend, Uh oh, don't do it. 550 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: That's always that's always what the reps and officials don't matter. 551 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 2: No, no, no, it's always an interesting conversation. My no, 552 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 2: my is in may Clarton. The only other thing I'll 553 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 2: say is I do expect I know it's it's bleak cakeman. 554 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 2: I expect him. I expect them to blitz. 555 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 3: And I think it's gonna be huge for Aaron Jones 556 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 3: and Jordan Mason to play, to be in the past 557 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 3: protection fase. It's gonna be huge for TJ. Hockinson to 558 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 3: chip on the edge like all that stuff. They have 559 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,120 Speaker 3: not been afraid the Lions to heat the vikings up 560 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,639 Speaker 3: and so like Jay McCarthy's quick decision making and the 561 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 3: protection unit being locked in. 562 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, that stuff, to me's going to be important. I 563 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: think this is important too. So we will call it, 564 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 1: we will watch it, we will listen to it, we 565 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: will fan line it. But let's just keep this in mind. Okay, 566 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 1: Clay Martin and his crew called the eighth most penalties 567 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: of all the I believe it's seventeen staffs in the 568 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: NFL thirteen and a half Blacks per game. 569 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 2: So that's kind of nondescribed, middle of the road. But 570 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 2: here's the deal. 571 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,719 Speaker 1: And I'm texting with Nacho leeber now about does some 572 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: Sunday things that we're going to do early in the game, 573 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 1: and one of them is he wants to talk about 574 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: Lions corner, A Meek Robertson and his holding of Justin 575 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 1: Jefferson every single time they play, and how it's overlooked 576 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 1: a lot. I think a Meek Robertson a Meek is yeah, 577 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 1: he's six year from Louisiana Tech. 578 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 2: He and Justin played high school against high school. That's 579 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 2: what it was. 580 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 1: So anyway, they've been dogs in a roundabout where known 581 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 1: each other for a long time. And but a Meek's 582 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: not as good as Justin one on one. Would we 583 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 1: agree with that? Yes, yeah, absolutely so, But but it's 584 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: so rare one on one. But to your point, off 585 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 1: the Young Alley doc, which is voluminous and fantastic, and 586 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: we'll get into it next segment. The Lions play a 587 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 1: lot of man coverage, I mean a lot of man coverage, 588 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: and they're kind of. 589 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 2: Like a Meek. Yeah you're Louisiana Tech. This is LSU guy. 590 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:28,159 Speaker 1: He and Jamar had thirty nine receiving touchdowns in twenty nineteen, 591 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: the most in the history of FPS. Yes, we know 592 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: who he and they are, but you still got it. 593 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: So the the a Meek holds Justin a lot in 594 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: sneaky fashion and it doesn't get called so here's why 595 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: I went into this. 596 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 2: Clay Martin staff. 597 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: Uh, they call the second most defensive holdings of any 598 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: staff in the NFL. 599 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 2: It's interesting, it's really nice. 600 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: Commissioner Goodell put that stat there at Ford Field in 601 00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: a game like this, you know, for a three and 602 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 1: fourteen trying to get the orange for Do. 603 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 5: You think in football at all there's ever the crossing 604 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 5: the cross talker of how people talk about SGA and 605 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 5: how he's always looking to find that foul. Is there 606 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 5: crossed by Jordan rules? 607 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 2: Yeah? In some ways, you know, And it's gosh, Andy Edwards. 608 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 5: In some ways he doesn't have the calls because maybe 609 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 5: he fights through contact more. I don't know, Mahomes maybe, 610 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 5: I mean, is is there a cross talker in the NFL? 611 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 5: Not really, But I'm thinking about defensive holding and. 612 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 2: Such where you you'll see the history onics. 613 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: But aren't there always like people on Halloween dressing up 614 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: like Cleete Blakeman and like the person walking with them 615 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: as Patrick Mahomes or Andy Reid or something. 616 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's easy. 617 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 1: I've seen the photoshop of Mahomes lovingly embracing Bill Vinovich. 618 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 2: I've seen that floating around social media, all right, Bikes. 619 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 2: Bikes By the Way Vikes by is provided by Thousand 620 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 2: Hills Lifetime Grays, Grass Fed. 621 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: Bae Play Trake Jared Jared Gobbs, Jared Goffs work at 622 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. Yeah, this is in the document 623 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: and it complements and or amplifies something that'll come up 624 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: very early in the game call this weekend and maybe 625 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 1: a little later today. Goff seventy four and a half 626 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: percent all right, second best completion percentage this year in 627 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: the NFL, behind Drake May who's seventy five and small 628 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: change Goff. 629 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 2: We said it earlier. 630 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 1: It's not seven step drop, go ahead and throw that 631 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 1: thing occasionally. 632 00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 2: It is. 633 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: It's three or five step drops and get those guys 634 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,479 Speaker 1: in stride. It plays into what Alec Lewis said earlier. 635 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: These guys have been together a while. That really really 636 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: really matters coaches and players. But the work he does 637 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage, it's underrated, isn't it. 638 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't see it or it's hard to really 639 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,959 Speaker 3: spot unless you're looking for it. But he is always 640 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 3: you know, whether it's three plays in the huddle, two 641 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 3: plays in the huddle, and then they're identifying the defense 642 00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 3: and he's putting his hands up to his helmet. 643 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 2: You're wondering what that means. 644 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 3: He's getting them into the premium play that he thinks 645 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 3: is gonna his best. 646 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 2: To attack the opposing defense. 647 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 3: And because they've been in the same system for so long, 648 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 3: like he's done this consistently and has such command doing it. 649 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 3: I would say, like Golf, that is one of his 650 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 3: strengths is at the line of scrimmage getting them into 651 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 3: the premiere play. And then his velocity on throws when 652 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 3: he has time is really good and the accuracy is 653 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 3: spot on all. 654 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 2: The time too. So like if you're not applying pressure. 655 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 3: We haven't even talked about the Lions new look interior 656 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 3: offensive line once the show. And if you can't like 657 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 3: affect him, get him off his spot and make him uncomfortable, 658 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 3: which you can't. 659 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 2: You can't do that, he's just gonna pick you apart. 660 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 3: And we've seen that covering these games in the past year, 661 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 3: probably two years. 662 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a big interior rush game from that standpoint, 663 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 5: but Golf is just so smart. 664 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 2: The cohesion that they have. 665 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 5: As we look at Nantalyze our team, the lack of 666 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 5: cohesion and specifically at the top spot is really one 667 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 5: of the problems that has persisted with this team so 668 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 5: acing that it's jj season, but with goff Man and 669 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 5: going back to the wide receiver chat, and part of 670 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 5: his ability to do that again comes from the fact 671 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 5: that it isn't seven step drops. They'll try to find 672 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 5: Jamison Williams in those mismatches maybe twice or three times 673 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 5: a game, but the majority of it, and why I'm 674 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 5: and Ross Saint Brown is such a stud and a 675 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 5: star and well compensated for it is because it is 676 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 5: three steps. You got Laporte on and out and then 677 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 5: just maybe overlapping or meshing is always am and ra 678 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 5: and he's always freaking open because it's so fast, it's 679 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 5: so quick, and his ability to adjust his IQ and 680 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 5: intelligence at the line is as good as it gets. 681 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 5: Would that be seventy four percent? That'd be an NFL 682 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 5: record if he's that wasn't it? 683 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 1: No, Maybe, well May's ahead of him, it's seventy five, 684 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't know what the NFL record is. 685 00:32:57,520 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 2: That's just that's just freaking insane. 686 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: Well, let's take it a step bar there, just off 687 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 1: what you had something else. 688 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 2: Well, it's just it's insane for that team. 689 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 5: Again, from the idea that we talked about the explosives, 690 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 5: we talk about stopping the run and everything, but just 691 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 5: at a base level, what we want to see from 692 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 5: our offense. 693 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 2: At the highest of levels. 694 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 5: You're kind of seeing that on the other sideline this 695 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 5: weekend against the kiddies. 696 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 2: It's something to root for, shoot for with JJ. 697 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: How about golf the last two versus the Vikings with 698 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: the completion percentage eighty four percent. He's completed eighty four 699 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 1: percent of his passes the last two against the Vikings. 700 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 2: What was the one? I think in Minnesota last year? 701 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 2: He may have? He may have? Did he have? It 702 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 2: was like perfect game. 703 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 3: It was like twenty two of twenty four, twenty two 704 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 3: of twenty five. I remember texting it with the Vikings 705 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 3: coach after the game. It's just like what are we what? 706 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 2: Like it's too hot for me to say, and how 707 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 2: and how is Mike Zorrovo Yeah, And it's like it's 708 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 2: like how what are I mean? 709 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:59,719 Speaker 3: It's just crazy, but yeah, I uh. This offense, Like 710 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 3: to Ordo's point, the continuity is such a part of it, 711 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 3: and that is it's such a dichotomy when you think 712 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 3: about the Vikings. 713 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 2: Offense right now. 714 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 3: You haven't had connuity of the offensive line, you haven't 715 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 3: had continuity with like all your receivers because Addison was 716 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 3: out with the suspension. I mean it's he wasn't in 717 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 3: the first quarter in London. It's just like, how can 718 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,359 Speaker 3: you honestly looking at it from afar, how could you 719 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 3: possibly beat like rhythmic and locked in if you haven't 720 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 3: all even been together. It's it's that's a really hard 721 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 3: thing to have. 722 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: That's why it's the baseline this weekend too. If they 723 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,480 Speaker 1: if they lose, push him to the wire. 724 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 3: Absolutely, if they lose, Oh, ed us Lee being like 725 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,439 Speaker 3: we threw punches, okay, we were physical like they were. 726 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,480 Speaker 3: If it's an unraveling forty one to seventeen, I mean 727 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 3: it is gonna be rough. Rough. 728 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: It's a Friday football feast of Buffalo Wild Wings, Jan Assen, 729 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 1: alec Lewis, the Athletic, Theathletic dot Com Noordo producer of 730 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: nine to Noon, and I'm Paul Allen back. 731 00:34:54,400 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 4: After this. 732 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:40,560 Speaker 1: Friday football feast Bubbalo Wild Wings, chant Assen and alec 733 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,919 Speaker 1: Lewis is nice enough to put together a a very 734 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 1: detailed and informative document for the nine to noon presentation. 735 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 2: Uh. 736 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: That has some film watching to it, looking back at 737 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:57,319 Speaker 1: the adversaries previous game, some Minnesota vikings related details and 738 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 1: minutia and stats and analytics and stuff like that. It's 739 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 1: born of hard work and we greatly appreciated. Thus we 740 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,719 Speaker 1: call it Ya's Doc, Young Alex Doc, and we we 741 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,919 Speaker 1: spread it out over a couple of secments because there's 742 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: a lot to share. And I'd like to begin here 743 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:17,919 Speaker 1: with Georgia rookie Tate Ratledge, the right guard for the 744 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:18,800 Speaker 1: Detroit Lions. 745 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:20,839 Speaker 2: You you wrote about him. What have you seen from him? 746 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 3: Yes, second round pick, right guard from Georgia. He's uh, 747 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:29,719 Speaker 3: he's kind of like a grinder, bigger body guy, not 748 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 3: the most like fleet of foot, but he's big. 749 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 2: And he's strong. 750 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's really interesting that they have transitioned 751 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:39,800 Speaker 3: on the interior where the right guard is a rookie 752 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,759 Speaker 3: second round pick and the left guard is a sixth 753 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 3: round pick. That's like a cup been in their pipeline 754 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 3: for a couple of years, and you got to give 755 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,280 Speaker 3: credit to their old line coach, run game coordinator Hank Freeley. 756 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I used to be here. Yeah, one of 757 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 2: my very favorites. 758 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 3: You give credit to him for the development, for sticking 759 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 3: with those guys, for inspiring confidence. 760 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 2: Not going with Ben right, I mean badly. 761 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 1: And I think he got a massive pay bump and 762 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: they might have put a slash in his title so 763 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,800 Speaker 1: he's like assistant or something, coordinator or something. 764 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:13,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I would say, and and maybe Jason Hatch, 765 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 3: who's the lionsman, would disagree. But like, I don't think 766 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 3: the Lions interior has been phenomenal. Like, I really don't 767 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 3: think that it's been great. I do in some ways 768 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 3: believe that they're gettable. You just have to be able 769 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 3: to knock them back and then place them in long 770 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 3: downs and distances where they have to pass the deck like. 771 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:35,359 Speaker 2: But they'll pick up stunts fairly well. There. It's an 772 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 2: interesting group that's coming along. 773 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:40,759 Speaker 3: I just don't it's not the strength that it that 774 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:44,320 Speaker 3: it has been. And and for me, through the film, 775 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 3: you can kind of see that in the way that 776 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 3: they haven't run the football with as much juice and 777 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,839 Speaker 3: momentum and efficiency as they have in the past. 778 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:53,839 Speaker 2: That's just kind of my opinion. Got watch it. 779 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 5: There's part of me that's kind of worried that this 780 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 5: is a vulnerable spot for the Lions, but part of 781 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 5: turning the page, part of how we make this an 782 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 5: absolute heavyweight battle on Sunday. I'm not sure we have 783 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:07,760 Speaker 5: the guys that can go to work on the interior 784 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 5: right now to truly exploit that over the course of 785 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 5: the game. And PA's been really vocal and adamant, just 786 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 5: kind of running through Javon Hargrave's total snaps in the 787 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 5: in most recent let's call it two or three games, 788 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:24,280 Speaker 5: and I think Jonathan Allen has been more productive, maybe 789 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 5: not splashy, but certainly more stable on the interior. But 790 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 5: in some ways I feel like, okay, that's a spot. 791 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 5: Mahogany is a chance to get better, and he's better 792 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:35,319 Speaker 5: than he was week one but in Glasgow and kind 793 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,440 Speaker 5: of you know, he was the last guy around that 794 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:39,439 Speaker 5: could play center, so now they move him from guard 795 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,279 Speaker 5: inside so Ratlic can play in his natural spot. I'm 796 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 5: just curious if we have somebody that can actually exploit 797 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:45,400 Speaker 5: that at this stage. 798 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:48,880 Speaker 1: When you watch back Vikings games, because I you know, 799 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:52,320 Speaker 1: I'm not watching defensive line as much as I probably should, 800 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 1: but I watched a lot closely off the Chargers game, 801 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 1: because when there's an aberration and you beat Cincinnati the 802 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 1: way you do or you lose to the Chargers the 803 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,400 Speaker 1: way you do, that those are the ones that greatly 804 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 1: intrigue me to see how things got so out of control. 805 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:12,280 Speaker 1: And despite a lot of negatives within that SOFI game, 806 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 1: I thought Jonathan Allen is starting it's starting to at 807 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 1: least in my opinion, it's starting to click resonate. He's 808 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,760 Speaker 1: playing markedly more snaps than Javon Hargrave. 809 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 2: But what do you think of Jonathan Allen? Yeah, he's 810 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:26,560 Speaker 2: getting better. 811 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 3: He's been solid, but I mean he's not paid to 812 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,479 Speaker 3: be solid like he's paid to be great. And that's 813 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 3: I mean part of it. I've said this and I've 814 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 3: written it. The move that they made was to maybe 815 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 3: be a little less productive from a run defense standpoint, 816 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 3: but way more productive from a pass RUSS standpoint on 817 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 3: the interior. 818 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 2: And they have been. 819 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 3: Much worse than a run deep from a run defense perspective, 820 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 3: and they have been not nearly good enough in a 821 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 3: pass rush perspective. 822 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:54,120 Speaker 2: Now, I will say. 823 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 3: This, Levi Drake Rodriguez has given some stuff in the 824 00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:00,840 Speaker 3: run game, and Jalen Redman has been the best interior 825 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 3: off best best interior defensive lineman. 826 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 1: On this ross and good for Jalen. But it's not 827 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 1: supposed to be that way. 828 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:06,879 Speaker 2: No, it's not right. 829 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:09,800 Speaker 3: That's the point as you pay these other two guys 830 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:13,360 Speaker 3: who were thirty plus who were coming off injury, So 831 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 3: there was reason even at the time to be a 832 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,840 Speaker 3: little skeptical of those decisions and that process, and that 833 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,919 Speaker 3: skepticism that anybody may have had. That's that's bared out 834 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 3: to this point. I wonder I wrote this, and I 835 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:29,399 Speaker 3: might be ridiculous, but like TAKEI Tamani, guys saw that 836 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 3: was this UDFA from Oregon who played a little bit 837 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,840 Speaker 3: last year then had an ankle injury. I almost just 838 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,320 Speaker 3: wonder if to have more of a nose tackle body 839 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 3: in there would be beneficial. 840 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 2: I don't know if they would do it. 841 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 3: He's on the practice squad, but I do kind of 842 00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 3: wonder if that would be an answer. 843 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 1: M HM alex Lois Nordo, Yours, Julie Paul Allen into 844 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,360 Speaker 1: the final hour. We welcome our final guest into the 845 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 1: radio show. It's somebody who has helped us with the 846 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:58,880 Speaker 1: great NFC North Debates at the Great Minnesota Clompfest, a 847 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:03,320 Speaker 1: Lions representation from an inside standpoint, and that he watches 848 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 1: all the games and watches him back. That's around the 849 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 1: corner on Kfam
