However, bright times, good 29 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 6: times on the horizon here is that injury report looks 30 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 6: markedly different than it did even two weeks ago. 31 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 4: Pa, I'm loving it. 32 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: Next up the Champs, and I understand why you're loving it. 33 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: I mean, shoot, the last time the devoted saw the 34 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: boys at home, they were embarrassing the Cincinnati Bengals, and 35 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: these fans are going to be fired up to watch 36 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:53,079 Speaker 1: their favorite squad pluck some wounded birds because next on 37 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: the doc hit the World Champions.

Yeah, Van Ginkle goes limited, taking a baby 40 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,639 Speaker 1: step in his quest to defeat the demon in his neck. 41 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 1: And the kid was out there throwing passes but was limited. 42 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: Third and one from the Bear's fourteen McCarthy out of 43 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: the shotgun, milking a three point lead. It is a 44 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: run pass option McCarty takes off to the. 45 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 4: Right stand to the test stunner steps at the five touchdown. 46 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 3: Peace JJ McCarthy, and he runs for a Vikings touchdown 47 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 3: and the Minnesota Vikings after that fourteen yard touchdown gallup, 48 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:45,119 Speaker 3: sending fans home here at Soldier Field. JJ McCarthy limited 49 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 3: with the Vikings first practice report. Ah but alas the 50 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 3: practice report included more names, Thank you, bizmar There was 51 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 3: a big fat bald word that read full next to 52 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 3: this guy's name. Thirty eight, thirty seven, thirty six, thirty 53 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 3: five Wentz On second and five from the Cleveland twelve. 54 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 3: He works out of the shotgun, takes the snap, four 55 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 3: man rush, crows to the right side, cut cussop Jordon Annison. 56 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 4: He's the minute of the match. 57 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 3: Henny gives the Minnesota Vikings a twenty to seventeen lead. 58 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 4: Thank you, Bizmarck. 59 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: I'd expect some news later involving the Minnesota Vikings quarterback 60 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: situation into the game against him. Birds wentz full, McCarthy limited, 61 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: Renard didn't slip, and I wouldn't be surprised if there's 62 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: news about the quarterback spot later today, and that very 63 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 1: well could be for just this week. And very well 64 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:51,239 Speaker 1: could be shorter than that if like Jalen Carter decides 65 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: to heat up and belly flops on Carson Wentz's wounded wing. Now, 66 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: this quarterback bet, this quarterback bet may be settled for 67 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 1: a day, it may be settled for a week. But 68 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: behind Carson, would it be jj? Would it be McCarthy? 69 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: If McCarthy is limited and Brosmer is not included on 70 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: said bullet points of pain, then I mean then Brosmer 71 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 1: would be minus one fifty minus won fifty to be 72 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 1: the backup against Quinnon Mitchell who has a swoon over 73 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: his hamming but made it too limited in the Eagles 74 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: practice report. So all of this still bears following, but earlier, 75 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: I'd say twenty five and a half hours of twenty 76 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: five and a half hours ago, maybe twenty two and 77 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: a half hours ago, Nordo dropped in something from a 78 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: podcast where it seemed like Jonathan Grenard spilled the proverbial beans, 79 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: and we got all excited. Then the report came out 80 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: one guy was full, one guy was limited. If the 81 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: other guy goes limited, limited, limited, and the University of 82 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: Minnesota product who was undrafted goes nothing, nothing, nothing If 83 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: it's Wentz. Does it matter who backs him up? I 84 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: think it does because of the wounded wing and Jalen 85 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: Carter and Jordan Davis doing belly flops on quarterbacks. 86 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 4: You think I'm seeing it? Clearly? I think you are. 87 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 4: But just at a base level for a moment, may 88 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 4: I celebrate? 89 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 3: What is it? 90 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 4: Wednesday? Thursday? Excuse me? Nine oh eight? 91 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 6: We don't have to answer or discuss who's going to 92 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 6: start on Sunday at US Banks? 93 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 7: Dam What do you mean? 94 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 4: Well, while the while the talker will not end, I 95 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 4: think the bet is settled. I think the bet is settled. 96 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 4: While the talker won't end. 97 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 6: In terms of when number nine comes back, that'll that'll 98 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 6: regenerate itself from Vikings fan line on Sunday afternoon into 99 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 6: a Monday after hopefully you'll win over the Eagles into 100 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 6: an early Thursday night game against the Chargers, so that 101 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 6: talker won't end, but just even for a couple of days, 102 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 6: just to go into Sunday noon US Bank Stadium potentially 103 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 6: pivoting doors wide open, a beautiful October breeze wafting its 104 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 6: way into a beautiful stadium full of fans ready to 105 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 6: beat them Birds. What's up with Saquan, et cetera. We 106 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 6: don't have to go in or spend any more time 107 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 6: going Yeah, it'd be cool if JJ played this weekend. 108 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 6: The limited capacity combined with the consistency of the coach. 109 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 6: If the kid himself says ankle ain't right yet, then 110 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 6: we know exactly what we're going to see on Sunday. 111 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 6: And I'm just excited that at this point of the day, 112 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 6: at this point of the week, we can just settle 113 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 6: in and now, what does Carson look like battling that 114 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 6: shoulder against Jalen Carter, Jordan Davis, Quinnon, Mitchell, some makuda 115 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 6: cat on the back end. Let's take advantage of the 116 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 6: second round rookie still getting the legs under him in 117 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 6: the NFL. 118 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 4: What's all that going to look like on Sunday against 119 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 4: the Eagles? 120 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: Now, Quenyon Mitchell is the best corner back for the 121 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles. 122 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 4: He has a swoon over his hammy. 123 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it was highly unlikely off the reports from Friday, 124 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: Sunday and a little bit Monday, that he would be 125 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: able to make this dance all right, So the Eagles 126 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: put out a practice report yesterday and said talented corner 127 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,959 Speaker 1: who has said swoon over his hammy was listed as 128 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:39,199 Speaker 1: limited on their injury report. Here's a pro prediction. Corners 129 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: with hammies on a fast surface against numbers one, three 130 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: and eighteen don't play. Nice try, beloved birds, nice try, 131 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: We'll see. 132 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 4: So that's the bet. 133 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: The black Chips have been paid for a day, and 134 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: now we get excited for the feast tomorrow and what 135 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 1: will be an amazing, frenzied, lively atmosphere at Buffalo Wild Wings, Monticello. 136 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: What do we all think about that Wentz versus his 137 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 1: former squad, the champs on a two game battle, two 138 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: two game negative battle. You got aj Saquon and Jalen 139 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: perhaps not liking each other, and if you strike them 140 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: fast and furiously, these birds might not punch back. Now, 141 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean there's no disrespect to the world champions. 142 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: This comes with nothing but respect for the Philadelphia Eagles 143 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: football operation. But we're not even at the midway point 144 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 1: of the season and you have people grading on each 145 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: other this early in the equation, a division rival who 146 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 1: just beats you on the horizon. The bye week after that, 147 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: bank accounts are fat and you have no time to 148 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: do anything during the practice week. So that's why you 149 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: think about the and you got that shiny World Championship ring. 150 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: You punch these guys early and open up a couple 151 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 1: scores on them, and they may not punch back. So 152 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:13,839 Speaker 1: what do we think about all that? Now, here's the 153 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 1: deal for the Minnesota Viking. Don't drop it, don't drop 154 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 1: the football, don't fall start it. Let's eliminate the pre 155 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: snap stuff. Put eighteen on some middlefield plays and watch 156 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: that man run. 157 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 4: Like the wind. 158 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: Major major, major pressure, however, is on a few Vikings 159 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: in this game, specifically in handling Saquon Barkley. We need 160 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: to discuss that, and we will do so with Nacho 161 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: liber and Liber at about ten o'clock.

I'm 191 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 6: happy to feel very confident about who is starting this weekend, 192 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 6: not that the plan has changed, but I know who's 193 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 6: going to be under center for the Purple against the Eagles. 194 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 6: I think the head coach is super happy to know 195 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 6: as well, or at least not have to answer any 196 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 6: more questions about who's going to be started. 197 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 4: Ready, think stand is it as far as you're starting 198 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 4: to be for Sundrin Kevin. 199 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 8: They stand in the same place they did Monday when 200 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 8: I answered that question. 201 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: It was a different version of Kevin O'Connell with that 202 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: press conference yesterday. I mean right from the start, first 203 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: and foremost, it began about twelve thirteen, fourteen minutes late. Secondly, 204 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: I can't recall Kevin walking up to a microphone and 205 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: paraphrasing basically saying, all right, guys, what do you got? Yeah, 206 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: and then, because normally he'll start talking about something a 207 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 1: little bit, then that question was posed and I didn't 208 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: in any way think it was a snarky response by 209 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: the head coach, but it's antithetical to his normal responses, 210 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:20,959 Speaker 1: which the over under on the words is about two 211 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: twenty five. 212 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that one had about fifteen words. 213 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 6: Well, I can actually, I mean with the way you 214 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 6: know in the radio business, like we just have kind 215 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,959 Speaker 6: of an inherent unconscious feel of what a break feels like, right, Like, 216 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 6: we know what breaks about five minutes. I mean, we 217 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 6: can eat lunch in a break, we can go to 218 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 6: the bathroom on a break, we can do a lot 219 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 6: of things on a break. But I can also set 220 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 6: my watch to Kevin O'Connell's responses. I know, as soon 221 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 6: as he's asked a question and he starts talking, we're 222 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 6: good for about seventy seconds ish, ye minimum and maybe 223 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 6: ninety I mean maybe we're treated to a full ninety 224 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,719 Speaker 6: of the head coach's response. That was about seven And 225 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 6: you're right when he typically begins pressers PA, it will 226 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 6: be kind of a summary, all right, looking forward to 227 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 6: a good practice and just kind of hits you with 228 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 6: a few bullets on the front end and any questions. 229 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 6: Wes Phillips, of all people, he's one of those guys though. 230 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 6: He's just like, all right, what do you got? 231 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 8: What do you got to? 232 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 4: TJ? 233 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 6: Hawkinson, this, Blake Brandell that, and they move forward. But 234 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 6: it sounds like the coach is ready to find some 235 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 6: stability at the QB spot, if you will, and to 236 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 6: just kind of work through the subterfusion get to the 237 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 6: final answer. 238 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: I think he wanted to get through the practice because 239 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: the injury report from Wednesday had not been released at 240 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: that time. Yeah, so he knows whatever goes into somebody 241 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: practicing in limited fashion, he knows that's coming for one 242 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: of the guys. 243 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 4: He knows that there's going to be a full listing 244 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 4: for the other guy. 245 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: Indeed, but you still got to do it, and you know, 246 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: you got to make sure somebody doesn't topple or stumble 247 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: and fall on the left shoulder. Somebody doesn't, you know, 248 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: take a bad step on the bad ankle, than a 249 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: limited becomes a d n P or a fall becomes limited. 250 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 1: So it plays into to what we said yesterday. And 251 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 1: I'm certainly not speaking for the head coach, but there 252 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: are a lot of frustrating things out of his control 253 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: that just keep coming at him and the team. And 254 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: I sense that a little bit yesterday certainly not the 255 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: way things were at the end of the Cleveland game. 256 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 4: Bikes. 257 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 6: Bit's more more of an audio blitz today nine to noon, 258 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 6: and we'll continue with the head coach. Hey, you know 259 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 6: this snapcount thing with darisaw can we see him just 260 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 6: kind of going full boar. 261 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 8: You know that was more of a just through the 262 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 8: dialogue with Christian of that one individual game. But yes, 263 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 8: I feel like he'll be in a good spot. 264 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 6: Oh okay, So can we potentially just say no more 265 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 6: snapcount Sunday afternoon? Potentially game winning drive team needs points, 266 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 6: whether it's getting into the end zone or it's from 267 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 6: the foot of Will Reicherd. We'll striker, Maybe we'll see 268 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 6: number seventy one out there and we won't have to 269 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 6: worry about Justin's school moving over to that left side. 270 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 4: Sounds like progressing in the right direction. 271 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 1: Mister Darisaw and O'Neill went limited, so did Donovan Jackson. 272 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: Jurgens went full despite Brandell playing in the in the 273 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: Browns game, but with with Darisow. That also plays into 274 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: the layering of the the man who run, who runs 275 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: the team, the head coach to who much is given 276 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: much as expected. He wants to win every single game, 277 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: of course, puts a lot of pressure on himself. But 278 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: if the way I heard the totality of the answer 279 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: that that part right there was a little short. The 280 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: totality of the answer to the question made it sound 281 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: like there are times that he legitimately doesn't know you know, 282 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: whether Darisol's going to make a fall game or not 283 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: make a fall game. Now, you know, I may have 284 00:16:55,320 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: speculated inaccurately with what I saw at Handbury manor Chris 285 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: Cooper and Keith Carter, the offensive line coaches were working 286 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 1: so much and so intently with Walter Rouse that when 287 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: Darisol left school went right to left and Rouse came 288 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,439 Speaker 1: in and played right right tackle. 289 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 4: I assume that was the plan, but it might not 290 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:22,160 Speaker 4: have completely been the plan. 291 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 1: So it You know, a lot of this involves how 292 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: Christian feels, how Christian, how much he believes in his 293 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: in his wounded knee, meshing with what he knows he 294 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 1: needs to do against somebody like Miles Garrett. And it 295 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 1: also you know, it could involve a tap out, or 296 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: it could involve I'm good the rest of the season. 297 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 6: It's another layer of the confusion. Indeed, bikes bites last 298 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 6: one from the coach. You know that Saquon barkleycat, he's well, 299 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 6: he's pretty good. 300 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 8: First and ten at your own thirty and he's crossing 301 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,199 Speaker 8: the goal line. If you're not exactly where you need 302 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 8: to be fitting the run. Second level players showing up 303 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 8: setting just playing the cutback. It's it's it's one of 304 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 8: those teams where they're really good at the things that 305 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 8: they do, and you've got to be really good at 306 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 8: some fundamental, simple things on the chuck board, but you 307 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 8: got to you gotta do them, and you got to 308 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 8: make sure that you consistently do them every play because 309 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,880 Speaker 8: he can change it in a heartbeat with one touch. 310 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 6: You know the you know yesterday, I need some I 311 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 6: need JJ McCarthy in my life, Excited for him to 312 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 6: get healthy, Excited for him to be back on the 313 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 6: field at some point from this morning. And I playing 314 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 6: Bank Ginkle. I need Van Ginkle in my life. I 315 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 6: need number forty three to be back on the field. 316 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 6: Could this be a Cashman style type game in terms 317 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 6: of trying to perfect those fits and find their way 318 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 6: to some positive answers In regard to Saquon Barkley, Yeah, 319 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 6: fair question because in the two losses this year, the 320 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 6: Vikings have allowed right around three hundred and fifty rushing yards. 321 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: I mean, Bijon has a little MVP to him, so 322 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: it's not like we're just going to forget that one. 323 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: But nevertheless, that was like about fifty. The gain well, 324 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 1: that's a problem. Well, the gain Well bit, it's you know, 325 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: when Baldy joins Brian Baldinger about fifteen minutes from now, 326 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 1: fifteen to twenty minutes from now, we're going to talk 327 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 1: about something the Steelers are doing. And they did very 328 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 1: well to the Minnesota Vikings using six to seven tight 329 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 1: end Darnell Washington, then extra offensive lineman seventy four I 330 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: think his name is Spencer Anderson. So they in essence 331 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: created seven offensive linemen. And that's what you need to 332 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,640 Speaker 1: do to get Kenneth Gainwell on one hundred yard game. 333 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: That's what you need to do to get this rookie 334 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 1: Caleb Johnson to fall forward for even three yards. 335 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, my man can't get out of his way. 336 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,399 Speaker 1: But he had a decent game against the Vikings because 337 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 1: running against the Vikings is what teams are doing. Cashman returns. 338 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:52,640 Speaker 1: That helps. How much will it help without Van Ginkel 339 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,919 Speaker 1: if he doesn't play, if you're limited, you're fifty to fifty. 340 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 1: We'll see if he'll probably be limited the course of 341 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 1: the week and maybe questionably to the game. I'm not 342 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 1: sure I can count on him for this game. But 343 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: like you said, you need gink in your life, and 344 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: the gink the gink. The gink was on the field. 345 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 1: So that's a good start. When when Lever joins in 346 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 1: thirty five minutes, the the A topic to the game 347 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: potentially could be this quarterback situation we've discussed since the 348 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 1: Cleveland game because it's the quarterback, all right, so it 349 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,679 Speaker 1: has a topic to it, no matter if your Spencer 350 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 1: Rattler or Carson Wentz. But right behind that and potentially 351 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 1: the A topic is something that you played from that 352 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: press conference, and I'm really really. 353 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 4: Glad you played it. 354 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: It's Joshua Mattellis, THEO Jackson, Harrison Smith and all corners. 355 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 1: That's what That's what O'Connell was talking about when he 356 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: was talking about the second level, the second layer. If 357 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 1: your safeties and your corners take bad angles on Saquon 358 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 1: and the Eagles run a lot of plays that have 359 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: designed cutbacks, so Saquon busting out to the left, but 360 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 1: they know five yards into it, there's going to be 361 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: a hard cut to the right, and they're going to 362 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: have like Grant Klcata if he plays Goddard's decent at it. 363 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: An offensive lineman, of course, would be good, Well, they 364 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: have those guys there to block your guys, and that's 365 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: how Saquon gets loose on these design cutbacks. So with Mattelis, Jackson, 366 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: Hitman and the corners, I mean, you can tell O'Connell's 367 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:28,959 Speaker 1: all over it already that you can draw it up 368 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 1: the way it's supposed to be, the way it's supposed 369 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: to look. And we've seen the tendency eighty two percent 370 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 1: of the time with Saquan, But if the eighteen percent 371 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: is different and you're not ready, he gets to the 372 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 1: house from seventy and he may only have three rushing 373 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: touchdowns this year, and he's not cracking one hundred yards 374 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 1: and things don't look the same with them. They can 375 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: in one or two runs, and those are the types 376 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 1: of things that get teams like the Eagles engaged super 377 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,479 Speaker 1: long runs where the bench and the kids go crazy 378 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: and now all of a sudden they become engaged. This 379 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 1: part right here, with the tackling with the secondary guys, 380 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 1: this is a vital, vital facet to winning this game. 381 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 4: Bites, Bites, thank you thousand Hills. 382 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 6: This popped in my head while you were talking about 383 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 6: Saquon talking about the fit and everything that goes into 384 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 6: the run game and teams having success with us. Hey, 385 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 6: you mentioned, you know the two losses. Well, even quin 386 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 6: Shawn Judkins in the Browns were finding their way around 387 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 6: the field on us on the ground. Specifically to that end, 388 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:34,959 Speaker 6: from our point of view, Mason Zay Scott love them 389 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 6: rooting for him on Sunday. Among all the people that 390 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 6: have come back, one name that we did not see 391 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 6: in terms of opening practice windows and such for our team, 392 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 6: Aaron Jones. Did that surprise you at all? Or in 393 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 6: terms because you know whatever and Mason better? Maybe between 394 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 6: the tackles. I mean, we've talked at length, at nauseum 395 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 6: in fact, really about the differences between the two and 396 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 6: what's cool when both of them are on the field. 397 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 6: I don't think it can be understated that or overstated 398 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 6: that we've really missed. I think Aaron Jones in some capacity, 399 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 6: he has not opened the window. He was not part 400 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 6: of the practice, He is still not in the mix. 401 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 6: I just wonder what we're missing there. 402 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,959 Speaker 1: I believe his window opens next week, the twenty one 403 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 1: day window, so he's not eligible to. 404 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 4: Play in this game. Oh that's my bad. 405 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: Then I caught Aaron when I got to practice yesterday 406 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 1: running on a far field, and I was like, who 407 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: invited secretariat to practice? 408 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,479 Speaker 4: I mean, holy cow, did he look like it? He's 409 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 4: played good. 410 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna lay it out like this, I'll be surprised 411 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,360 Speaker 1: if Aaron Jones doesn't. 412 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 4: Well, surprised is too strong. 413 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: I would with the Chargers game that short week, terrorism assuming, 414 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 1: and I'm pretty sure I'm right on this. With his 415 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 1: window opening next week, then I you know, I mean, 416 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: I'm not going to be you know, Joe Q doctor 417 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: David Chow trying to pretend like I know what I'm 418 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 1: talking about from a medical standpoint, even though I'm not 419 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: on Twitter like that doctor. It's what I saw yesterday 420 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: look pretty good to me. So I would quasi count 421 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 1: on him for the Chargers game. No, okay, that's that's sweet. 422 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,919 Speaker 6: Then, I for some reason, I thought he was available, 423 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 6: if healthy, to start this week. But next week let's go, well, 424 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 6: let's get Aaron Jones back. And that leads me to 425 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 6: the kid QB talking about his ankle. 426 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,679 Speaker 8: Akl is you know it's it's getting there. I wouldn't 427 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 8: say it's one hundred percent right now, but you know, 428 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 8: we're striving every day to get there as fast as possible. 429 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: The talker that emerge you think you think we're bored 430 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: talking about this. Did you hear that kid right there? 431 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean the kid's vivacious and as pop 432 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 1: and he asked play yeah. 433 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,639 Speaker 4: And it's it's his voice just tailed up at the 434 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 4: end he started talking about it. 435 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 6: So, while I think we have some finality in terms 436 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,360 Speaker 6: of the Eagles game, the talker that will emerge Pa, 437 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 6: whether it's at the Feast or next week into the 438 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 6: Chargers game, is going to be well, okay, if needs 439 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 6: to be fully healthy, let's hope it is. 440 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 4: But he also needs a full week of practice. Short 441 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 4: weeks are weird. 442 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 6: So you're gonna start getting the talker down the line 443 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 6: of well, if he couldn't go this week and next 444 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 6: week's a short week against the Chargers, it might be 445 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 6: baby By and it might be Kitties game early November. 446 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 1: Your thoughts on that, I think I think you know 447 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 1: fellow media members would agree with me on this. For though, 448 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: you know when the parts of practice they slash we 449 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 1: watch is McCarthy when you watch him walk And I 450 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: noticed this at at Hanbury Manor and he wasn't even 451 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: set to play in the Browns game. 452 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 4: That there's a little hitch in the gidea. I mean 453 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 4: it's not, you know, it's not. It's not. Old schoolers 454 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 4: will understand this. 455 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 1: Red Fox Fred Sandford from a bone down the way 456 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 1: he used to walk in Sanford and Son. It's not 457 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: that off kilter. But it's not. It's it's not just 458 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 1: a completely ten of ten stride. So he you know, 459 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: he's still favoring that ankle a little bit in my opinion, 460 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: even when he's just walking around. So when it comes 461 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: to limited and needs a full week of practice, not 462 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 1: exactly sure how close to full he would. 463 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 4: Be, but I can. 464 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: You know it's a high ankle spring, so you know 465 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: those generally three four, five, six weeks to be safe 466 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 1: with it, and you know they're pretty close to that now. 467 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: But the the the part for me with this game 468 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 1: coming up, that I'm starting to noodle on a fair 469 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,199 Speaker 1: amount included in the open with the quarterbacks is all right, 470 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 1: So Wentz goes prohibitively favored to start because of the 471 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: practice report yesterday. Odds can change after a practice report today. 472 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 1: But if McCarthy is limited limited limited questionable, and Brozmer 473 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 1: is fine fine, fine, fine, who's your backup to Carson 474 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: wentzeh Because if you have a wounded left shoulder that 475 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: has caused the coach to talk about it several times 476 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,120 Speaker 1: up to this game, you fall on that bad boy, 477 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 1: or you run for a first down and you dive 478 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: and you get that Texas second round rookie safety playing 479 00:26:58,280 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 1: out of his mind and he hits him the wrong way. 480 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: A well, the backup, yeah, I mean it could be Throwsmer. 481 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 1: It got to be at us Bank Stadium, packed house. 482 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,959 Speaker 1: Haven't seen him since they killed Cincinnati against Carter and Davis. 483 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:13,959 Speaker 6: If you're if you're sticking to the plan, I think 484 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 6: Brosmer has to be the backup. I think that's probably 485 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 6: the right answer could be for this Philly game. Speaking 486 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 6: of the shoulder, here's Carson. 487 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 4: Feel good, feeling good? Yeah I'm not feeling good. 488 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just one of those things just played through 489 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 5: and I'm feeling feeling pretty good right now. 490 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 4: He's feeling good, Okay. 491 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 6: I think I bet you it's it's it's smarts, It stings, 492 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 6: it probably hurts like hell, but he's a warrior. Love 493 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 6: him or hate him, Carson Wentz is a tough dude. 494 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 6: That's how they raise him in Big Mark in Bismarck. 495 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 7: Nordo. 496 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 6: That's what the seven O ones are telling me on 497 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 6: the text line. 498 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 5: Going with that big Mark. But but he needs to slide. 499 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 5: It's definitely something that you think about. It's just in 500 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 5: the heat of the moment. How do you think, How 501 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 5: does your mind work? What instincts take over? And so 502 00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:59,680 Speaker 5: it's always something I come back and watch the film, 503 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 5: it's like that was probably dumb. I gotta I gotta 504 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 5: be better, I gotta learn. I hate to say it, 505 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,639 Speaker 5: but I've been saying that to myself for ten years now. 506 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 4: Thank you. 507 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: He daggered the touchdown call because when the ACL got 508 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 1: messed up at La Memorial Coliseum. Yeah, he was diving 509 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 1: for the end zone. One of those points. He was 510 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,719 Speaker 1: running one of those points. It's how they raise him 511 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 1: in Bismarck. You say, not so much, man, Dan, I 512 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: say both. That's how they raise him in Bismarck. And 513 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: so he just said, I've been saying that to myself 514 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: for ten years. Close circuit to Carson Wentz, it's probably 515 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 1: not going to change. Probably not. And because you don't 516 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: want somebody thinking about, you know, whether they need to slide. 517 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: You know, you can't think about that during the course. 518 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 4: Of the run. 519 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 6: Well, we talk about people making business decisions, right, Like 520 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 6: maybe a running back that jumps out of bounds Downvin 521 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 6: Cook maybe better at avoiding that last tackle. He would 522 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 6: concede maybe an extra yard and get out of bounds. 523 00:28:56,240 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 6: Adrian Peterson, he wants that extra yard. He wants that fight. 524 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 6: Everybody on the freaking team for one more yard. Now, 525 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 6: I heard Lieber talking about this with the power trip. 526 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 6: Actually in relation to that audio clip you just heard, 527 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 6: how do you change the instincts, the reflexive nature of 528 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 6: a personality. So if he if you don't want him 529 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 6: thinking about it, then what you saw on the field. 530 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 6: Sadly it ended in an acl injury that changed the 531 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 6: trajectory of his career during that seventeen season. Clearly it 532 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 6: affected him with the shoulder here, but those are maybe 533 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 6: also some of the traits that when he's feeling good, 534 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 6: he's going nine to nine on drives and he's pure 535 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 6: instincts and he's finding Addison for six. 536 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: With a bad shoulder, I mean, with it, you know, 537 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: depending on what medically they did to it up to 538 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: that possession. But i'd have to imagine it hurt close 539 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 1: to as badly as it possibly can hurt during that situation. 540 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: But you have the thrill of the game, the adrenaline 541 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: given from the crowd, so there for it masks it 542 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 1: to a certain extent. But you know, and this is 543 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: under the assumption that that Wentz starts on Sunday. It's, 544 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: you know, the closer we got to that Browns game 545 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: with Miles Garrett, Malika Collins, Mason, Graham and all those 546 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: guys were very physical front seven. It's it's you know, 547 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: before i' vetited it out with with some people, I 548 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 1: was like, you got to throw to win this game? 549 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 4: Okay, well, what do you mean We're gonna have three 550 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 4: fists of the lie. 551 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, Well, then that means Hawkinson and Oliver 552 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 1: need to be extra offensive lineman and Mason needs to 553 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: pass protect. And you put three guys out in patterns Naylor, 554 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: Addison and Jefferson, and over the length of the game, 555 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 1: Greg Newsom cannot keep up with any of them. Denza 556 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 1: Ward is really good, but still is a really good 557 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: ten of ten times against eighteen. The safeties are good downhill, 558 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: especially delp It against the run, so I laid the 559 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: over under on Carson Wentz passes in the Cleveland game 560 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 1: at twenty seven and a half, and he went over it. 561 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: I can't get a feel at this stage of the 562 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 1: equation as to what the game shape should be offensively 563 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: against this defense. I don't like their edge pass rushers, 564 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: the UCHA bit the former Giant. I mean they got 565 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: three guys on whom they're counting defensively who are unrestricted 566 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: free agent pickups from the New York Giants. 567 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, last year's New York Giants. 568 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 6: So yeah, o Jalari's never lived up to his heregether 569 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 6: and they got this Patrick Johnson who they're playing. So 570 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,719 Speaker 6: isn't a Dori Jackson for Yeah, bam, thank you make 571 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 6: it for And he's been hideous as at the corner 572 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 6: spot A Dory was supposed to be their third corner, 573 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 6: but now he's one of their top two unless Quinnyon 574 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 6: Mitchell returns off that hamstring. Kylie Ringo is a Georgia 575 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 6: cat on whom they counted to take a big, big 576 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 6: step this year. No step, and he hasn't right and 577 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 6: you can't you can't single cover these guys coming at him, 578 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 6: and that they have to know that. 579 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 1: Oh, I guess we'll figure it out. Jim Schwartz didn't 580 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: figure it out and he got beat late with Jordan Addison. 581 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 6: How about Addison running routes against Perry Nickerson on Sunday. 582 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: Right, I mean, if Nickerson sees the field, he won't 583 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 1: but I don't think you will. But nevertheless, games see, 584 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 1: I think this is a game you need to throw, 585 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 1: is I is? That's what the Vikings do best. 586 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 4: They throw. 587 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: And when you start to see plays with Jefferson middle 588 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: of the field catching at ten to eleven from the 589 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, making it twenty six to forty, that's 590 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: the O'Connell offense attacking middle zones, putting the best guys 591 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 1: in run after catch positions. Yeah, so it's I don't 592 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: I don't really have an over under for like passes 593 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: in this game, but I think for I think you can. 594 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: I mean, the Giants just scored thirty some odd points 595 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: against the Philadelphia Eagles, and the Vikings offense is better 596 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 1: than the New York Giants and quite honestly is not 597 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: even close. 598 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 6: I will say though, that the Giants put up a 599 00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 6: buck seventy two on the ground against Wow and the Eagle. 600 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 4: Defense is given up. 601 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 6: I think it's for six for seven a carry, and 602 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 6: so I mean, but once you play that, we know 603 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 6: that you know ETCA games, so flow, and the fact 604 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 6: we have a certain head coach that loves throwing. 605 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 4: All of that included. 606 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 6: But I'm just curious, Like you said, you can get 607 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 6: around the gym autum, I think through the air in spots. 608 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 6: This will be the same way that we talked about 609 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 6: the Browns game, the way that we've talked about others. 610 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 6: Some kind of efficiency in some respects doesn't have to 611 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 6: be in mass forty carries. I think the run game 612 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 6: is going to play into this. We need Mason to run, 613 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 6: and we need Mason to hold out to the freaking ball. 614 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 1: Brian Baldinger of the Baldy's Breakdowns ILK via Twitter. He's 615 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 1: an elite though and watching mind, former offensive lineman in 616 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 1: the NFL, and he calls games for the likes of 617 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,040 Speaker 1: NFL Network, Box and so on.

Thanks for taking time to help us, brother. 628 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:21,919 Speaker 1: How are things? 629 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 4: Thanks are good, Paul. 630 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:24,640 Speaker 8: It's going to be with you. 631 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 7: Good to hear your voice. Looking forward to my trip 632 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 7: to the Twin Cities here this weekend. 633 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I love our sideline chats, you know when the 634 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 1: players are filtering onto the field and they start doing 635 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 1: some things and asking you about offensive linemen and stuff. 636 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 1: And let's start here outside of Vikings and Eagles. This 637 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 1: is off a tweet I saw yesterday at Baldy, NFL. 638 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 1: At Baldy, NFL. I'm with you on Steelers tight end 639 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:52,720 Speaker 1: Darnell Washington. Man when we when we were in Dublin 640 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 1: and they used him and went unbalanced with tackle Spencer 641 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 1: Anderson Kenneth Gamewell looked like Ranco Harrison under those circumstances. 642 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 4: What a what a specimen? 643 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 7: Darnell Washington is that was the best game Kenneth gang 644 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:10,839 Speaker 7: Weell ever had too and the Steelers found a run 645 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 7: game that day. And he is I mean he's a 646 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 7: he's a lean three hundred and fifteen pounds, you know. 647 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 7: I mean, he's bigger than more tackles in this league. 648 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 7: But he can run too, and he caught a big 649 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 7: pass the other day in a Steelers victory. So I 650 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 7: agree with you, Paul, like I feel like he's underutilized, 651 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 7: but he is getting on the field more and more, 652 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,359 Speaker 7: and I think he's going to be a bigger part 653 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 7: of that offense. 654 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 4: What do you think of the Eagles? Just paint with 655 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 4: a broad verbal brush, Baldy. What do you think of 656 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:38,440 Speaker 4: the Eagles? 657 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,320 Speaker 7: Well, they've been a seventeen point offense, Paul, you know 658 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 7: the last two weeks, but they really have struggled all 659 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,799 Speaker 7: year long. I mean, go back to the opening game 660 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 7: of the season against the Cowboys. That are lightning delay 661 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 7: in that game and you know it was delayed with 662 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 7: about five minutes ago in the third quarter, they score 663 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 7: point the rest of the game. They were losing to 664 00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,359 Speaker 7: the Rams twenty six to seven going into the four quarter, 665 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,439 Speaker 7: and you know, pull a miracle and you know, block 666 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:04,920 Speaker 7: a kick at the end to win the game. I 667 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 7: mean they've been they really kind of struggled, and you know, 668 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 7: against the last time they played against the Giants a 669 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 7: week ago on Thursday, I guess two weeks ago tonight, 670 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:17,319 Speaker 7: you know, they gave up five touchdowns and they didn't 671 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 7: score in the second half. And so they've they really 672 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 7: struggled offensively for most of the season, and now because 673 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,439 Speaker 7: of some injuries, they began to really struggle defensively as well. 674 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:32,319 Speaker 1: Baldy, if the Vikings jump the Eagles, do you think 675 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 1: they And I'm not disrespecting the champions. I have a 676 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 1: lot of respect for them, but at this stage of 677 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 1: the season, if they get jumped on the road, I 678 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: just wonder what the punchbacks is going to be. And 679 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 1: I asked because they had nothing that they had no 680 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: punchback a week ago when. 681 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:49,760 Speaker 4: Trying to run down the New York Giants. 682 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 7: What do you think, Well, I've seen this collapse before, Paul, 683 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 7: two years ago. You know, they lost six games in 684 00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 7: a row in the second half of the season, and 685 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 7: they couldn't get out of them. They couldn't get out 686 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 7: of the downards spiral they were in. They talked about it, 687 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 7: they had their meetings, They do all the things the 688 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 7: teams that are struggling to do, and the Eagles have 689 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 7: begun that process. They've had ten days to get ready 690 00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 7: for this one on Sunday. But and they're doing all 691 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 7: that right now. But I mean, they've got to come 692 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 7: out and execute. They they have not run the ball 693 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 7: well at all, Paul. You know, I believe Saque is 694 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 7: as good as any running back in this league. He 695 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:26,720 Speaker 7: was last year, and they have so many negative plays 696 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,800 Speaker 7: right now. Forty percent of their runs with Saque this 697 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,359 Speaker 7: year have gone for a yard or less, so they're 698 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 7: not really moving people up front. They've had some injuries 699 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 7: up there, but I think it starts with the run game, 700 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 7: and you know, if they can get that cranked up 701 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,359 Speaker 7: and get some big runs that were used to see 702 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 7: them from Saque. If they do that, I think they 703 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 7: can come out of this and they can, you know, 704 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 7: regain their respect and start winning some games. 705 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 1: At Baldy NFL via Twitter, and I was kind enough 706 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 1: about ten minutes ago to post a clip and on 707 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: which he's analyzing a play from the Vikings Browns game. 708 00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:02,000 Speaker 1: And actually, Baldy, once you put up there with Jefferson running, 709 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:04,919 Speaker 1: I believe, or was that the cam Akers pass? 710 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I put both those up ball, yeah, okay, Well. 711 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 1: With Jefferson running when he when he motioned to the backfield, 712 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 1: they went off set. I right that that was like 713 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 1: my favorite offensive play of the game because it was 714 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 1: just so creative and so different. With Darisaw moving to 715 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 1: right tackle, so they go unbalanced. You put Jefferson in 716 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 1: the backfield, you see the Browns pointing at people and 717 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 1: running all running willy nilly. 718 00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 7: Uh. 719 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: I know you have a lot of respect for the 720 00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,319 Speaker 1: creativity the Vikings offer up offensively, right. 721 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I do. 722 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 7: And you know, just that particular play, you know it 723 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,440 Speaker 7: caught my attensible. I know it did yours in the 724 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 7: booths as well. But you know Cleveland is a really 725 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 7: heavy press man coverage team. Well, if you put justin 726 00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 7: Jefferson to motion them to the to the tailback position, 727 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 7: it's kind of hard to go press him. And you 728 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 7: know he came, you know, out of the backfield flat 729 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 7: and Carson found me. He was wide open and he's like, okay, 730 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 7: you know it's just a play to shake him loose, 731 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 7: get him the ball, let him know that he's a 732 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 7: big part of the game playing, which he always is, 733 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 7: but you get him an easy completion like that, Like 734 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 7: I don't see a lot of teams doing that to 735 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:11,280 Speaker 7: wide receivers that, you know, to get their guys involved 736 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 7: in the game, let them know that, you know, we're 737 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 7: going to be feeding you all day long. And I 738 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 7: just thought it was a little you know, creative flare 739 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 7: by Kevin on that particular play. And then obviously the 740 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:24,080 Speaker 7: half back pass from cam akers Oliver you know, was 741 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,880 Speaker 7: opening touchdown to the game. And that's a good defense. 742 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 7: You know, You've got to find different ways to, you know, 743 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 7: to move the ball against that defense in order to 744 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 7: because they're really good at what they do. 745 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,759 Speaker 1: So what about the Eagles defense, I mean, Carter and 746 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:41,960 Speaker 1: Davis obviously handfuls bond Dejene Blanken Ship's really done a 747 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,959 Speaker 1: good job with his career being undrafted from Middle Tennessee State. 748 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 1: But from a Corners standpoint, you know, quinnyon mitchell I 749 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 1: thought his hamstring situation was kind of bad, but they 750 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:53,760 Speaker 1: listed it listed him limited in practiced. 751 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 4: I don't know, it's a fast surface. 752 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,320 Speaker 1: You got Nailor who's four three with Addison and Jefferson, 753 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,800 Speaker 1: that just doesn't seem good for a bad hammy. So 754 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:06,880 Speaker 1: the secondary and edge rushing by the Eagles is is 755 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 1: there a problem they're having right now? 756 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,920 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, there is a problem, Paul. You know, Jayleen 757 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:14,840 Speaker 7: Carter has played four games. He didn't play in the 758 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 7: last game, didn't play in the first game because of 759 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 7: the suspension. But you know, he doesn't have he doesn't 760 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 7: have a sack, He's got very few quarterback hits. He 761 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,920 Speaker 7: really hasn't been the same player that we're used to 762 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:27,880 Speaker 7: seeing in those first two years in this league. So 763 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:31,800 Speaker 7: we'll see what happens. He without the heel injury, and 764 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 7: he's had a bad shoulder, So I don't want to 765 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:36,040 Speaker 7: say the injuries aren't a part of it, but he 766 00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:38,759 Speaker 7: doesn't look like the same players to this point. Now 767 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 7: when he's healthy, he is a handful. Quinnon went out 768 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,080 Speaker 7: in that game against the Giants, and they've had problems 769 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 7: at left corner to begin with, Paul. They've They've played 770 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 7: a lot of different guys over there, Keey, Ringo Dorr, Jackson, 771 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 7: Ja Curry and you know Bennett. They've played a bunch 772 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 7: of different guys. Nobody's really nailed down that spot. And 773 00:40:56,320 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 7: so when Quinnon went out, they were really susceptible, and 774 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 7: so they need him in there. He's he's their best 775 00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:06,839 Speaker 7: defensive back. He's a very good corner. They need him 776 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,319 Speaker 7: in there to kind of hold things down a little bit. 777 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 7: But they'd struggled at the left cornerback position all year. 778 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:16,759 Speaker 1: Balding as a former offensive lineman, and the Vikings in 779 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:20,680 Speaker 1: London against Cleveland in that situation, what four fifths of 780 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:24,400 Speaker 1: the regular offensive line was down. Justin's school had to 781 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:26,719 Speaker 1: move from right to left tackle for the fourth quarter. 782 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 1: The left guard was undrafted from Wisconsin, and center Blake 783 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,440 Speaker 1: Brandell played his first game ever at any level at 784 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:34,799 Speaker 1: center and they won the game. 785 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 4: Ever seen anything like that? 786 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,319 Speaker 7: Well, Joe, I mean I had to go find out 787 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 7: who Joe Shuber was, you know, when I saw him 788 00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:47,479 Speaker 7: out there. But you know, it's going on in this league. 789 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 7: I saw the Cowboys win a game two weeks ago 790 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:53,920 Speaker 7: with four backup offensive linemen. But it's it's where we're 791 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 7: at this league right now. I tell people that if 792 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 7: you want to build a team correctly, you can't have 793 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 7: enough offensive and defense to linemen in this league. You 794 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 7: better stack them on the practice squad. You better train 795 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,640 Speaker 7: them on Sundays when you have a chance to get 796 00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:08,680 Speaker 7: them out on the field. You've got to get these 797 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,120 Speaker 7: guys ready ball. We saw a bunch of injuries to 798 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 7: the Vikings in the offensive line last year. We've seen 799 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 7: it already this year. You've got to get the guys 800 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 7: ready to go. Otherwise it's just a convenient excuse that, well, 801 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,239 Speaker 7: you know, we didn't. We didn't protect very well today, 802 00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 7: we didn't run the ball very well today because of 803 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 7: the guys that we had in there. It's just not 804 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 7: an excuse anymore. With there's many linemen that are going 805 00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:30,839 Speaker 7: down in this league. 806 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 1: Very fair time for two more for Brian Baldinger NFL 807 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:39,400 Speaker 1: Network National Radio this weekend Eagles and Minnesota Vikings. He 808 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,800 Speaker 1: also calls games for Fox at bald the NFL v 809 00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:47,439 Speaker 1: X Packers. When you watch Jordan Love, what do you see? 810 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 7: I see an elite arm and good decision making and 811 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 7: enough enough good mobility without going crazy back there. I 812 00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,520 Speaker 7: feel like he's got a good pocket, presence of when 813 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 7: to move and where to move. So I see all 814 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 7: those abilities. I think, you know, he just obviously he's 815 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 7: had some injuries. He's missed some time over the last 816 00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 7: two years, and that's never helpful to any young quarterback. 817 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,080 Speaker 7: But I see a guy that has as much talent 818 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:22,320 Speaker 7: at that position as almost anybody playing the game today. 819 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,759 Speaker 4: What about Darnold with Seattle, what do you see? 820 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,560 Speaker 7: He's playing amazing right now, Paul. He really is the 821 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 7: same thing that you saw last year with Kevin and 822 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:34,719 Speaker 7: the Vikings. He's doing that in Seattle right now. And 823 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 7: you know, suddenly a guy like Jackson Smith and Jigba 824 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 7: who we kind of like, said well, he's gonna be 825 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 7: a good slot receiver is a pure number one receiver 826 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 7: because Sam is consistently getting him the ball. Hit him 827 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 7: on a sixty one yard strike against Jacksonville last week, 828 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 7: beautiful throw. But you're seeing everything. You're seeing movement, decision making, 829 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 7: good arms, streat arm strength, and accuracy. And right now 830 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 7: he's got Seattle tension to go win that division this year. 831 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:04,279 Speaker 4: What about the Buffalo Bills. What do you think is 832 00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:05,240 Speaker 4: ailing the Bills? 833 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:09,799 Speaker 7: Well, they've got a bad run defense for years now, Paul. 834 00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,080 Speaker 7: We've seen that show up against Baltimore and what they've 835 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 7: done to them. But you know last week you saw 836 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 7: Monday night, I mean Atlanta ran for two hundred yards 837 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,840 Speaker 7: you saw the eighty one yard touchdown run by Vjon Robinson. 838 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,240 Speaker 7: They're not very good in the run defense, They're missing 839 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 7: some guys. Matt Malone goes out, they're not the same defense. 840 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:33,920 Speaker 7: And then in the secondary they've got issues at cornerback 841 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 7: and that's kind of around the league right now. And 842 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:40,120 Speaker 7: then you know Josh Allen as good as he is. 843 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,640 Speaker 7: I mean, they got held to fourteen points in that game, Paul, 844 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,239 Speaker 7: and so that's really what the change in that game is. 845 00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 7: That was a close game, twenty one to fourteen, and 846 00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:52,320 Speaker 7: Buffalo just could not, you know, must that drive to 847 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,320 Speaker 7: tie that game up and Atlanta ended up winning it. 848 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,319 Speaker 7: So they've struggled two weeks in a row right now, 849 00:44:57,360 --> 00:44:59,440 Speaker 7: but I think it starts with their defense and their 850 00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 7: run defense. 851 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,880 Speaker 1: See on the sideline Sunday about ten fifteen, ten thirty 852 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:04,839 Speaker 1: Central time. 853 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 4: Thank you, Baldy. 854 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 7: You got a fault anytime, Buddy. 855 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:11,320 Speaker 1: Yep, see your brother, Brian Baldinger Beloved Baldy at Baldy 856 00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:15,759 Speaker 1: NFL via X.
