Speaker 4: he's you know, eight years later or whatever it was

32
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 4: he'd lost or twelve years later, he'd clearly lost some voice.

33
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 4: His voice isn't at its best, but the I mean,

34
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 4: the set list was crazy and when.

35
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:35,959

36
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 1: You know.

37
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 4: You and I were discussing Elvis Costell, like this is

38
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,479
Speaker 4: what Elvis gott Teller should do. Bring in the background vocals, right,

39
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 4: just sing a little bit, let the background vocals carry,

40
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 4: and then when you need it, slam it out there.

41
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 4: Hopefully he got enough voice to do it, and Paul

42
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 4: McCartney had enough voice to do it. And it was

43
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 4: and just one last thing. It was very It was

44
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 4: it was emotional for me and for my wife because

45
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 4: my wife's sister was there and my younger sister Sue

46
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 4: was there a huge they're both huge Beatles fans. And

47
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 4: if you're our age old, that's like the soundtrack of

48
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 4: your life. It just is, man, I mean, and you

49
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 4: know it's there's been never been a group like him,

50
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 4: never will never been a person like Paul McCartney, never

51
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 4: will be. It was I thought it was great and

52
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 4: two hours and forty minutes. Eric Clapton, I mean, this

53
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 4: is this is a great show, you know, yeah, more

54
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 4: than last week too.

55
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 5: But like, don't you think that the fact that his

56
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 5: voice is sort of quavering and is sort of showing

57
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 5: his age, doesn't that make it more emotional in a

58
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 5: way and more meaning certain songs you see like that

59
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 5: kind of thing.

60
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 3: Certain songs it definitely did, I mean, give you more

61
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 3: grat Well, he's singing Blackbird and his voice is breaking up.

62
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 3: You're just like, I can't tell you the amount of

63
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 3: times I'm like, am.

00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: I about to cry?

65
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 3: Because I like it was it was emotional, Yeah, I

66
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 3: I yeah, my eyes were. My eyes got a little

67
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 3: wet a couple of times, especially the videos in the background,

68
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 3: and it really just so much about the passing of time.

69
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 3: You're there to kiss the ring on a legend. Like

70
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 3: you said, there's nobody like him. It's not just that

71
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 3: he has a lot of hits. You're not watching the

72
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 3: who You're not watching even Mick Jagger, who has like

73
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 3: a different persona and relationship. Like there's something about McCartney

74
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 3: because he is the unicorn, like there are not It's

75
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,239
Speaker 3: like Prince and McCartney. You know, there aren't a lot

76
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,839
Speaker 3: of guys who did and can do as much as

77
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 3: he has and and still does. He played the bass

78
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 3: and sang, played the guitar and sang. He's playing the

79
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 3: piano and sang. He played a ukulele and sang, and

80
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 3: he's eighty three years old and he did it for

81
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 3: two hours and forty minutes. And every song he sang

82
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 3: was a classic that he wrote. Like, He's just unbelievable. Yeah,

83
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 3: there's not a lot of people like that in the

84
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 3: history of music.

85
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 4: He's like Mozart. Well, when you think about the Beatles

86
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 4: in general. And by the way, the one guy whose

87
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 4: voice did change it, I think changed for the better

88
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 4: was Elton John.

89
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 1: When I saw him. In contrast, he change for the

90
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: Bely mackerel. Yeah, so does Elton John. He said that

91
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: before he likes that his voice has changed, his voice.

92
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 4: Being lower, Like I'm not a huge Elton John on

93
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 4: the record fan. I just you know, because that was

94
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 4: the air of the backup strings, like you know, softening everything.

95
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: There was no soft in concert. Man. He just I

96
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,560

00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,400

Speaker 3: their leading receiver yesterday. Uh and and James Pierre in

116
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 3: the secondary. With not just the fumble recovery return for

117
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 3: a touchdown, I mean even bigger was that he saved

118
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 3: a touchdown early in the game when Chase was wide open.

119
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: Beautiful pass breakup. Here is Rob King on the call.

120
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,919
Speaker 2: Al swirling as Flacco gets the snap back to pass

121
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,799
Speaker 2: looking gonna loft deep intended for Chase battle away. Beautiful

122
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 2: play by James Pierre right down the middle of the field.

123
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 2: Pierre had it judged all the way. Great coverage by Pierre.

124
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 3: Rogers goes down. Doesn't worry me to bring in Mason Rudolph.

125
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: Jalen Warren goes down.

126
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 3: While I love Jalen I am his biggest fan, I

127
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 3: think the offense needs to continue to go through him.

128
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 3: Gain Well has already proven he can do it. We

129
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 3: saw it in Dublin. James Pierre coming in that makes

130
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 3: me a little bit nervous. He really stepped up yesterday.

131
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 4: He's an interesting guy. You know, proof that development for

132
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 4: a player isn't linear, right, That isn't always linear. Sometimes

133
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 4: it is, but when he was when they got him

134
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 4: as an undrafted free agent. Mike Tomlin talked about him

135
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 4: during earlier in the week. You know, he's a COVID guy,

136
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 4: so he didn't you know, it wasn't able to be

137
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 4: around him. But they really they really felt like there

138
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,280
Speaker 4: was something there and it's just taken him a while

139
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,279
Speaker 4: to get there, you know, from Florida Atlantic to the

140
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 4: NFL and you know, he was not on the team,

141
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 4: He's on.

142
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: The practice squad earlier this year.

143
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 4: To be able to have that kind of assent is

144
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 4: first of all, it's it's a credit to him. But they,

145
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 4: you know, they they kind of stuck with him, and

146
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 4: I think that that belief that he could be that

147
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 4: kind of player is starting to manifest itself on the field.

148
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

149
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 3: I mean they really miss Corey Trice and his availability here.

150
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,279
Speaker 3: I think signing a Sante Samuel, you think we see

151
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 3: him next week?

152
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: I mean it was.

153
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 3: It would have been a quick turnaround to put him

154
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 3: back on the football field again in such short order.

155
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 3: But with another week, do you think it's possible? Finally,

156
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 3: I think I think it's possible.

157
00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 4: You know, there's uh when and by the way all

158
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 4: these guys you're mentioning, Randy, I mean, I think it's

159
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 4: when coming out of camp.

160
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: Remember being in camp watching.

161
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 4: With Max and others and being like, man, this team

162
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 4: is super deep, really deep. The one place they weren't

163
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 4: really deep with safety and what happens they get injuries

164
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 4: at safety. But when you have a player like Jalen Ramsey,

165
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 4: and some of this is roster construction, some of this

166
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 4: is the players. Of course, you know, the players have

167
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 4: to step forth no matter who what kind of roster

168
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 4: construction you have. But game well, as we saw in Minnesota,

169
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 4: that's a really good backup. He never had the opportunity

170
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 4: to play like that. He showed in Minnesota that he

171
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 4: can play like that. So Jayalen Warren goes down, that's

172
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 4: what you have. Mason Rudolph, of course, we've seen him before, Pierre,

173
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 4: you know, Kyle Dugger going out and getting him in

174
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 4: a trade. You know, there's a lot of things that

175
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 4: have happened along the way, and a lot of the

176
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 4: depth kind of coming to the forefront here for the

177
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 4: Steelers and some of that, you know, like the pro

178
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 4: scouting department, all these departments coming together and putting the

179
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 4: right guys in place, but also you know, eventually and

180
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 4: ultimately the players have to go out and succeed. And

181
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 4: the Steelers, I still think they have a deep roster.

182
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 4: Jalen Ramsey being able to play safety is huge, especially

183
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 4: when a guy like Pierre and a guy like Eccles

184
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 4: who you know you brought him in maybe to be

185
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 4: the fourth corner. You know, when those guys can emerge

186
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 4: for you. And then, like you said, as Sante Samuel,

187
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 4: this is a really good player.

188
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: You know, they need to get him up to speed.

189
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 4: I don't know how difficult it's going to be for

190
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 4: him to kind of just jump in.

191
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 1: He hasn't played in what over a year, so I

192
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: don't know. I I.

193
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 4: Like the way that the backups had to come in

194
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 4: and perform, and that's exactly what they had to do.

195
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 5: It's part of Gainwell's success, the fact that he is

196
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 5: second on the chart, that he's lurking in the shadows

197
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 5: that people are game planning for, you know, Jalen Warren,

198
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 5: and that that gain Well's not getting enough attention from

199
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 5: defensive coordinat.

200
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 3: I have said before the Vikings game, yes, after that, no,

201
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 3: because he's been an integral he was getting touches before

202
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 3: the injury.

203
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: He just became the primary focus after that.

204
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 3: I mean, he's a good play so much so that

205
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 3: I don't think they should have gone to Gamewell on

206
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 3: that third down. They should have kept Warren in on

207
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 3: the one failed third down attempt they had, And we

208
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 3: talked about it with Tim Bens earlier. I would prefer

209
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 3: that when they spell Warren they do it by series

210
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 3: and not mid series.

211
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: Yeah.

212
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 4: I think that's I agree with you, because that's what

213
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 4: they've done in the past. That's you know, Warren was

214
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 4: a third down back, but he would also come in

215
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 4: and spell Naji Harris. Look, they really like gain. Well

216
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 4: did I say Warren, I meant Warren. Did I say

217
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 4: Warren would come in for Naji for a series?

218
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 1: Yes? Yeah, third back?

219
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:33,559
Speaker 4: Okay committee. Yeah, So I agree with you, and I

220
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 4: thought that was maybe kind of how they would use him.

221
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,680
Speaker 4: But they think he's a really, really good third down back.

222
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 4: They think he's an upper echelon third down type of back.

223
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 4: It gives you the opportunity to rest Jale Warren, keep

224
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 4: him fresh, you know. I, like I said, I think

225
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 4: we saw in Minnesota what he can do. But you know,

226
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 4: look around the league, like, for example, the team they're

227
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 4: playing this week, Chicago, DeAndre Swift got hurt. They put

228
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 4: in Kylemanung Guy, a seventh round pick. He went crazy.

229
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 4: Everyone's like, this is the end of DeAndre Swift. We'll

230
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 4: see the Swift was healthy, he got back in there.

231
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 4: But Manon Guy had a massive game. There are good

232
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 4: players around the league that are just waiting for an opportunity.

233
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 4: Game was really never had the opportunity to be the guy,

234
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,319
Speaker 4: and he's had a couple of opportunities this season, and

235
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 4: certainly the one in Dublin because Warren wasn't available.

236
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 1: And then in the second half of this game, what

237
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: do you.

238
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 3: Think was the biggest difference between the first time they

239
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 3: played they faced Joe Flacco and now yesterday's thirty four

240
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 3: to twelve win.

241
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 4: The defense was just so much better, you know, And

242
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 4: again I don't know how much the wind had to

243
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 4: do with that, because it was really windy, really windy.

244
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 1: And did you watch any of the game last night,

245
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:43,559
Speaker 1: the Eagles game? I did not.

246
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 4: It picked up even more. I mean, guys were guy.

247
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 4: They showed guys that they showed the kickers in pregame

248
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 4: warm ups. You know, aiming to the left of the

249
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 4: upright and it blowing all the way across and wide right.

250
00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 4: I mean, just crazy win. It was windy yesterday. Don't

251
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 4: know if that helped, but you know they were the

252
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 4: Bengals just hit deep out after deep out against the Steelers.

253
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 1: I mean in the first game.

254
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 4: Oh, I mean just you know, a fifteen seventeen yard

255
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 4: out just easy as could be to Chase and Higgins.

256
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 4: I don't remember see I think I saw one pass

257
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 4: completed like that yesterday.

258
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 1: One. Yeah, they did a great job covering those guys.

259
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 4: And whether you say the wind or the defense or

260
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 4: probably a combination of both, you know, getting some pressure

261
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 4: up the middle on Flacco and again you see the

262
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 4: difference between between you know, a pass rush and making

263
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 4: a team one dimensional. You know, at some point Flacco

264
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,559
Speaker 4: had to hang onto the ball a split second longer.

265
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 4: When that happens against his team, you're in big trouble.

266
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:47,079
Speaker 3: Was yesterday game that made them further realize that they

267
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 3: need to invest more in this guy.

268
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 2: Back to pass, looking fires over the middle of the field,

269
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 2: complete the darn and watch, oh he shut down them

270
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 2: again and then lowers his shoulder, rumbling down the left sideline.

271
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 1: He's shut him off with.

272
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 2: A stiff arm and got down the left sideline inside

273
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,719
Speaker 2: the thirty five yard line of the Bengals out of.

274
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 3: The thirty one I mean a thirty one yard gain

275
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 3: and he, you know, as you point out there, just

276
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 3: shreds three guys for the Bengals.

277
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 1: This is a.

278
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 3: Weapon that nobody else really has right now, like, we've

279
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 3: got to utilize him more often. It seems like there's

280
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 3: they've been slow rolling him out of the gate for

281
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 3: so long.

282
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 1: Are we finally ready to go?

283
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 3: Okay? Time to throw it to Mount worsh You know,

284
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 3: I love his game, I really do.

285
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: And know how his hands.

286
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 3: Are, by the way, I don't know if he's like

287
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 3: the best catching, No, he has good hands.

288
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 1: He has good hands.

289
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 4: I don't remember too many, I mean, you know, except

290
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 4: for him not being ready, like if he's ready, that.

291
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 1: He wasn't ready to turn around right.

292
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, But you know reminded me of like if you

293
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 4: had say a senior in high school playing King of

294
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 4: the Hill against like the first range, he's like wam

295
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 4: onto his ankle. It was it was it was actually

296
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 4: well I laughed out loud because it was actually humorous.

297
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:09,959
Speaker 1: It was just, you know, so I understand what you're saying.

298
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 4: But then after after the first game in Cincinnati, thereone's like,

299
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 4: what we need more friar mouth, right, you know. And

300
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 4: I don't think we've seen the best of John hus

301
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 4: Smith yet. I just think, and I've said this many

302
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 4: times over the years, over this year, I think it's

303
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 4: going to be a matchup oriented team in the passing game.

304
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 4: You have DK Metcalf, He's a constant. One week you'll

305
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 4: look out there and be like, hey, their second corner

306
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 4: isn't up to snuff. This is Calvin Austin's game. Okay,

307
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 4: well they got two good corners. Now we're gonna have

308
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 4: you know, we're gonna be able to utilize the tight ends.

309
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 4: So they have and and Darning Washington's playing a lot.

310
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 4: You know, they have the jumbo package, and he's playing

311
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 4: a ton, and the tight ends are out catching the

312
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 4: receivers like all the time.

313
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 3: I guess what I'm saying is, I know he's not

314
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 3: being put on the bench, but do they start scheming

315
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 3: him into the.

316
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: Game plan a little bit more than they have been. Well,

317
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,319
Speaker 1: I think he's been schemed in. I think he's been

318
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 1: just the right, he can't have too much Paprika. It's hard.

319
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,839
Speaker 4: It's hard to say, Like if a team just said,

320
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 4: you know, I don't know whether a team could take

321
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 4: him away.

322
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: Is there something him like who has the size?

323
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 5: He literally can go eight yards out on a curl route,

324
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 5: hold his hand up and that's it.

325
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: Like, what's anybody gonna do about it? Yeah?

326
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I don't know. I mean it would

327
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 4: be interesting. Okay, you've got an assignment for me. I'm

328
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 4: going to go try to talk to so who would

329
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 4: normally cover him, a strong safety, maybe inside linebackers, Peyton Wilson,

330
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 4: Patrick Queen.

331
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll I'll see what they have to say. I'll

332
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: see what they think. I'll see what they think about that.

333
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 3: Rob King joining us with a power of Steeler talk

334
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 3: right now and big win over the division foe Cincinnati

335
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 3: Bengals yesterday.

336
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 1: I think their.

337
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 3: Coach thinks I think their coach thinks, really, I think

338
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 3: he's His clock management is terrible.

339
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: I think he makes bad decisions.

340
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 4: I hate to say this, but the Steelers had won

341
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 4: ten in a row in the last ten game and.

342
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 1: Bengals were seven and three against the seer.

343
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 3: I know which is you know confounds me even more

344
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 3: because I don't think that guy's that could chase Brown

345
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 3: just under one hundred yards yesterday ninety nine. That seemed

346
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 3: to be the thing they let like, they didn't get

347
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 3: flummixed like they did the first game, and they seem

348
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 3: to be all over the place over correcting. It was

349
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 3: almost a tortoise and hair situation the first time they

350
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 3: played Flacco.

351
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: I liked the.

352
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 3: Poise on defense and on offense, that's okay, live to

353
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 3: fight another day, and punt the ball away, established the run.

354
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 3: I think they ended up with almost like a fifty

355
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 3: to fifty split in pass and run yesterday.

356
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 1: Which is better than what we'd been seeing where they were.

357
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 3: You know, Aaron Rodgers is throwing at thirty five times

358
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 3: and Jalen Warren got you know, sixteen carriages. He ended

359
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 3: up with ten before he was taken out of the

360
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 3: game yesterday.

361
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: Yeah.

362
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 4: Sometimes though that's dictated by the game. Right, So you

363
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 4: get the lead and now you can run the football.

364
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: I know it. Don't stump all over my now though,

365
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 1: I mean just because you're running. You know what they did.

366
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 4: They won the time of possession MAXs Maxi's clock. We

367
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 4: know we were in conversion breaking backs, Like, what's the

368
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 4: time and possession? Someone said thirty minutes. He's like, oh,

369
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 4: we got to get the ball back. So they got

370
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 4: it back for a kneel down. I think at the

371
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 4: end of the game and that one time that counts.

372
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, thirty minutes and five seconds seconds to twenty nine

373
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 3: to fifty five.

374
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 1: Yep, win's a win. When's a win?

375
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 3: I am actually a little bit encouraged by that performance

376
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 3: yesterday on a couple of fronts.

377
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about Aaron Rodgers.

378
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 3: I really don't think that Mason Rudolph is a huge

379
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 3: drop off at this point. I can see that Aaron

380
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 3: Rodgers does a whole lot more at the line of scrimmage.

381
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 3: But as you pointed out, maybe the rest of the

382
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 3: team is better suited to just engage in some simplicity there.

383
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: Did I point that out? Did I say that?

384
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 2: Oh?

385
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: No, Jerry did? Jerry y?

386
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 2: Yeah?

387
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right.

388
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 3: Sorry I'm confusing people. But here's my one question for you.

389
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 3: Rum and Wilson ended up with more snaps yesterday than

390
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 3: Calvin Austin. Now, Calvin Austin is back to return pun

391
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 3: so it can't be because of injury.

392
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 4: What do you think that's day because Kishon got hurt yesterday,

393
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 4: got a concussion that okay, this actually art, Yeah, that's relevant.

394
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 4: That's why they moved Austin to back to returning punts.

395
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 3: Okay, So do you think it's because Austin is still

396
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:18,920
Speaker 3: like nursing that injury.

397
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: No, I don't know why.

398
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 4: You know, again, maybe there's something they liked in the

399
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 4: matchup that got Roman Wilson more snaps. I saw him

400
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 4: running in emotional How many catches did he have? I

401
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 4: thought he had one? Yeah, he had He had one

402
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 4: for seventeen yards. Calvin had one for five yards.

403
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 5: If we were skimming tight tight ends open and we're

404
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 5: doing sort of routes that are meant for checkdowns or

405
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 5: anything like that, is there any reason like maybe Roman

406
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 5: Wilson's better blocking than teeny tiny Calvin.

407
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 1: I mean he is a pretty good blocker Roman. Yeah.

408
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 4: Well, they're both scrappy. Neither one of them is a

409
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 4: large human. Roman Wilson's not a big guy either, but

410
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,360
Speaker 4: they are there. Both of them are are scrappy. They

411
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,679
Speaker 4: know that they have to be, kay. You know, I

412
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 4: talked about that with Calvin Austin last year It's like

413
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 4: he's always been small, right, he knows it. He knows

414
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 4: he's got to get in somebody's face and get after

415
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 4: him because he's never been the biggest guy in the room.

416
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 1: So he's I love his heart and his crappiness.

417
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,439
Speaker 4: Like I said, I just think that for whatever reason,

418
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,359
Speaker 4: they either it's the flow of the game or the

419
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 4: game plan, that's what we're gonna see. You know, one

420
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 4: week it's gonna be a ton of Darnell Washington, next

421
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 4: week it's gonna be Pat Fryarmouth. I'm still waiting for

422
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,239
Speaker 4: johnning Smith to have a breakout game because I think

423
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,159
Speaker 4: he's I think he's due one and is going to

424
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 4: have one.

425
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 3: Man he he and Friarmuth. I mean friar Mouth had

426
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 3: that game against the Bengals last time. You thought you

427
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 3: would have seen more of him yesterday. But I just

428
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 3: thought we were going to see the ball be be

429
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 3: in front of the tight ends much more often than

430
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 3: we have this season.

431
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: Well, I mean it's been spread out, it's been distributed.

432
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 4: The one thing John ing Smith hasn't done that I

433
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 4: thought would happen more because you know, because so we've

434
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 4: seen the both running backs get a ton of catches.

435
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 1: We have seen the tight ends get a lot of catches.

436
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 4: We haven't seen a lot of DK Metcalf, especially lately,

437
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,479
Speaker 4: getting a ton of catches. What did he have yesterday?

438
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,679
Speaker 4: DK had five for forty nine. Know that he was

439
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 4: the last four games he'd average under forty yards per

440
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 4: game in receiving yards DK.

441
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 3: Mason had him over the top on one yesterday and

442
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 3: he went underneath and we got the first down.

443
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:13,719
Speaker 1: So I mean we still ended up getting first down.

444
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:14,680
Speaker 1: It was the drive we scored.

445
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,679
Speaker 3: But there's a few times I think where DK is

446
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 3: probably getting frustrated because he's not being seen well. I

447
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,400
Speaker 3: don't remember both with Rogers and Mason, and I do

448
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 3: wonder if the wind had a factor. I don't remember

449
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 3: a single point long one getting completed by either team.

450
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 3: It probably happened, but I don't remember like a long

451
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 3: ball down field that was completed yesterday.

452
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 1: Do you for Metcalf specific Yeah, for anybody either team,

453
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 1: was there a long and anybody aired it out? Yeah,

454
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember if they even threw it long

455
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:44,680
Speaker 1: at any point.

456
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:48,199
Speaker 3: I think you're right. Well, Darnell's thirty one had that

457
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,640
Speaker 3: twenty eight yarder, but that was for the touchdown. Yeah,

458
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 3: I mean it was almost like a wheel route thing

459
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 3: that like.

460
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,160
Speaker 1: But even I think there was only twenty or fifteen yards. Yeah,

461
00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: that wasn't even that much. Yeah, I think it was

462
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: hard to throw the ball down the field.

463
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 3: Yesterday, Rob King with a Power Hour of Steeler Talk

464
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 3: with us heading to Chicago this weekend to take on

465
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,639
Speaker 3: the Bears. That's a one o'clock kickoff, which means the

466
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 3: pregame starts at nine am. Here for your six and

467
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 3: four Pittsburgh Steelers. This is an interesting one.

468
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: Huh. Ben Johnson versus Mike Tomlin.

469
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:18,919
Speaker 4: Well, what is this now? The I think they're in

470
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,360
Speaker 4: first right, the Bears in first place for seventy three. Yeah,

471
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 4: so this is the third time in the last four

472
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 4: weeks Colts Chargers Bears at the play Division leader.

473
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 3: Mike's coming in with your sports and I want to

474
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 3: bring back a segment that we used to kind of

475
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,879
Speaker 3: do during the Power Hour, which was the post game

476
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 3: call of the day because oh nice, Well, Charlie Batch

477
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 3: have to deal with lots of fun calls after the game.

478
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 3: So I just tapped Mike on the shoulder again and said, hey,

479
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 3: want you you know, let's bring that Segmentarry Nick and

480
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 3: I think that'll be a good one. Then we'll offer

494
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 3: as Mike Pursuda joins the Fray.

495
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 6: Sports is that brought to you by Bridgal Plans. Let's

496
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 6: just keep riffing on the game. I liked what you

497
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 6: guys were talking about before the break. The two deep

498
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 6: shots that stood out to me were the Flacco to

499
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 6: Jamar chase that James Spear made the phenomenal play on

500
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 6: the deep post, and the Mason Rudolph backed shoulder to metcalf,

501
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 6: which I still can't believe that was called offensive pass interference.

502
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,880
Speaker 6: I thought that was two guys hand fighting, neither one

503
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 6: restricting the other. They did not go to Jeane Stare

504
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:07,879
Speaker 6: throw on that play for some reason, but we'll get

505
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 6: to it tomorrow. I thought that was a bad call, agreed.

506
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 6: Other than that, there weren't a lot of shots taken

507
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers game. I don't want to say I was

508
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 6: down on it before his injury, but I was expecting

509
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,760
Speaker 6: a significant bounce back from him, and I didn't see that.

510
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 1: He looked frustrated. Again.

511
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 3: His body language suggests somebody is frustrated, and I don't

512
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 3: know if it's because, as we talked about earlier, he's

513
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 3: changing things up at the line that they're not getting

514
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 3: or did DK on that one third down throw where

515
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 3: Rogers overthrew him in the second quarter? Did he run

516
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 3: the wrong route there? Did Aaron Rodgers overthrow it? Did

517
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 3: the wind take it?

518
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,159
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, nothing noticeable to me.

519
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 6: He was wide open, he was one on one and

520
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 6: he was on the field and they didn't hit it again.

521
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 6: And now the Chargers one, it was pretty obvious that

522
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 6: something was amiss with the route versus the ball placement.

523
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 6: I didn't see anything that jumped out at me looking

524
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 6: at that one again. Rogers was frustrated afterward. I just

525
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 6: interpreted it as we missed, we had a shot there.

526
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:18,440
Speaker 3: Well, that's what I don't know, is he pissed it

527
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 3: himself or the circumstances. I actually think a lot of

528
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 3: the times he's pissed at the line because he is

529
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 3: having to worry so much about the lack of protection.

530
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 6: Most other full quarterbacks have to move a little bit

531
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 6: in the pocket. That's why they scout that skill. I mean,

532
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 6: the line was much better yesterday and Max starts I

533
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,679
Speaker 6: Talught did a great job on the pregame show pointing

534
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 6: out that Broderick Jones had a tough night against the

535
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,680
Speaker 6: Chargers and it was not a coincidence that Isaac Samala

536
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 6: was not lined up next to him and they kept

537
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 6: switching the guard because they were doing that. Let's try

538
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 6: to start Calvin aust Or, Let's try to have Spencer

539
00:23:56,119 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 6: Anderson play guard and the extra line, extra tight end thing.

540
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 6: So they had to bring Pete in and the guard

541
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 6: position kept changing. It's not an excuse. I'm not making

542
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,679
Speaker 6: an excuse for Broderick. He should have been better, but

543
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 6: he was much better again yesterday. The play from Rodgers

544
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 6: that really bothered me because what I value with Aaron

545
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,120
Speaker 6: Rodgers is his ability to see the field, break down

546
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 6: the defense, understand where the ball needs to go, and

547
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 6: get it there. Second quarter, right after Friar Moose's nineteen

548
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 6: yard reception his catch and run, Rogers ended up bootlegging

549
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 6: right and Friar Mouth was wide open in the middle

550
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,120
Speaker 6: of the field. He's on the logo with his hands

551
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,439
Speaker 6: up in the air and the crowd reacted because he

552
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 6: broke open.

553
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,399
Speaker 1: And you can hear oh, there he is, and he

554
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 1: threw it.

555
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:43,920
Speaker 6: To Johnny Smith. It's like you had a big play there,

556
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 6: you missed it. He was uncovered. I don't expect that

557
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 6: from Aaron Rodgers. That's the kind of play I want

558
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 6: to see him make with regularity, as he was doing

559
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 6: before that Chargers game.

560
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,120
Speaker 5: Has he always been known as like a you know,

561
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 5: Ben Roth because I always thought that was something that

562
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 5: Ben could do, is when the play broke down, he

563
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,119
Speaker 5: could see the scramp and make things happen. Rogers was

564
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,240
Speaker 5: always a great arm great you know, game manager, everything

565
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 5: like that. Has he been known to be able to

566
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 5: pick that up when he's getting flushed out of the pockets.

567
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 6: And in the old days, when he was a young man,

568
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 6: he could run and hurt you that way.

569
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,880
Speaker 1: And now he groans when he sits in a car, but.

570
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:22,439
Speaker 6: Now he can still get out on the wing and

571
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,879
Speaker 6: make a play. The Calvin Austin thing is perplexing to me,

572
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 6: and it's it's curious to me. The defense is getting

573
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 6: better because they're talking about stability as safety and they're

574
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 6: not running guys in and out from down to down

575
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 6: as often.

576
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,639
Speaker 1: You just talked about the offensive line benefiting from smoah.

577
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 6: I think they're playing with their toys too much on offense.

578
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 6: And I made a comment earlier today, Rand and you

579
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 6: reacted with great surprise. I talked about they're looking for

580
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 6: a second receiver again, and he said, well, they've been

581
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 6: doing that since July. Early in the season, they were

582
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 6: in two wide receiver sets. It was almost always Metcalf

583
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 6: and Austin. And if you go back to the New

584
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:03,400
Speaker 6: England game game late fourth quarter and Rogers. They're in

585
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,399
Speaker 6: cover two, and Rogers reads that the safety on the

586
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 6: near hash is going to come down and he's gonna

587
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 6: have a one on one with Calvin, and he just

588
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,679
Speaker 6: looks at Austin at the line of scrimmage and Austin

589
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:17,119
Speaker 6: looks back boom, game winning touchdown. To me, that's the

590
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 6: value of Calvin Austin. Either he or Metcalf can take

591
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 6: the top off the defense because they're both deep threats.

592
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,439
Speaker 6: If you single cover them. Now, how do you not

593
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:30,120
Speaker 6: single cover them? You play cover two. If they're doing that, you.

594
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 1: Run the ball.

595
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 6: Roman Wilson hasn't proven to me he can take the

596
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,440
Speaker 6: top off the defense yet.

597
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 1: I don't know why he's getting more snaps into. I

598
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 1: mean a small guy.

599
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 6: And while the you know, different guys for different game plans,

600
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 6: for different opponents, for different venues. It's a great theory.

601
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 6: It's playing with your toys too much. You're not getting

602
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,360
Speaker 6: enough out of them.

603
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:57,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, just put you guys out there. Let him make plays. Well.

604
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,400
Speaker 3: The lack of a helmet for MVS is also well

605
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 3: not puzzling. He just must not be ready for prime

606
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 3: time anymore. I can't to play this week. It's puzzling.

607
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 3: I mean, he was in San Francisco while he was hurt. Yeah,

608
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,359
Speaker 3: he has a history with Rodgers, but new to the Steelers.

609
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 3: Put him on a practice sweat, get him up to

610
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,399
Speaker 3: speed in practice, get him some reps with the ones,

611
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 3: put him out there. I mean, other than he might

612
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 3: have just been so confounded by the playbook or you know,

613
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 3: so early on that they thought let's get him another week.

614
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 3: But I have a hard time believing that, since a

615
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 3: lot of that stuff for these guys is it's rote.

616
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 3: It's like it's all coming from the same bible.

617
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 6: I'm surprised it didn't happen this week. After the putt

618
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 6: returner Keyshawn Williams had that screw up against the Chargers,

619
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 6: I thought that was a perfect opportunity to sit him,

620
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 6: move Austin back to the putt returner number three roll

621
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 6: and see what MVS has is the number two.

622
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:54,680
Speaker 4: I was curious as to what they were going to

623
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,880
Speaker 4: do with Keishawn, but they gave him an opportunity because

624
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,679
Speaker 4: he's shown some explosive ability. He returned, you know, so

625
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,640
Speaker 4: I'm off late in the game, and it didn't matter.

626
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 4: They you know, listen, you could say they showed some

627
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 4: confidence in him by putting him back out there, but

628
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,160
Speaker 4: he left the game with an injury. If his availabilities

629
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 4: in question, I could see, you know, if they're going

630
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 4: to carry the six wide receivers, that could see.

631
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,120
Speaker 1: Him being called up.

632
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 4: But listen, they may you know, they they just signed

633
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,760
Speaker 4: Sante Samuel too, so maybe he gets an opportunity to play.

634
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 4: I don't know how much time he's gonna need. There's

635
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 4: only so many roster spots to go around. As far

636
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 4: as elevating guys from the practice squad, and then who

637
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,120
Speaker 4: would you, I mean, as far as the regular rotation

638
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 4: at guys, I mean, I think it's going to be Metcalf, Austin, Wilson. Still,

639
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 4: they love what Scoronic brings. Scotty Miller's a wonderful guy

640
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 4: to have available on game day.

641
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 1: Because he can do so much for you.

642
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 6: Great gunner yesterday. Yeah, I don't know who you somebody

643
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 6: else can gun Okay, you're not getting enough out of

644
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 6: this passing game.

645
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:50,959
Speaker 1: You're not.

646
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 6: And Calvin Austin they told us in the spring, the

647
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 6: wide receivers coach, the offensive coordinator head he's the number

648
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 6: two and for the first three four weeks of this reason.

649
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 6: It was believable. Since he has come back last two games,

650
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 6: he's got three catches for nineteen yards combined. If it

651
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 6: ain't him, it's got to be somebody else that. If

652
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 6: it's not him, I want to see what MVS looks

653
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 6: like as opposed to Robert Wilson.

654
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 1: Well, we'll see.

655
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 4: I mean he hasn't it's been a while since he's

656
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:19,959
Speaker 4: put up big numbers.

657
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 3: Do you want to hear Ian Rappaport on Good Morning

658
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 3: Football talking about Aaron Rodgers.

659
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 6: I would love to hear Ian Rappaport on Good Morning

660
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 6: what's the deal with Rogers right now?

661
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 1: Man?

662
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 7: Well, Aaron Rodgers is going to have test this morning

663
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 7: just to determine how long he is going to miss

664
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 7: with his injured wrist.

665
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 1: If he is going to miss time.

666
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 7: Here is our understanding. This is something I've been reporting

667
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 7: with colleague Tom pelisera Aaron Rodgers does have a tiny

668
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 7: fracture in his left wrist. That is what the X

669
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 7: ray at the stadium revealed yesterday. The reason why he's

670
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 7: going to have more tests. After you mentioned a player

671
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 7: land on his wrist, it was torqued in a way.

672
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 7: Was just too much pressure at a Bote ended up breaking.

673
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 7: Aaron Rodgers, to my understanding, has told people close to

674
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 7: him that he will be back very soon. He has

675
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 7: told more people close to him that he does not

676
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 7: want to miss a game. He is pushing to play

677
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 7: in this game. I know it seems crazy because he

678
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 7: broke a bone in his wrist, but it is a

679
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 7: left wrist. If he's able to grip, if he's able

680
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 7: to receive the ball on the step, it is actually

681
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 7: possible that Rodgers could play this week. Had someone tell

682
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 7: me that he was essentially fifty to fifty to play

683
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 7: this week. So it sounds bad, but Aaron Rodgers does

684
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 7: want to play and is trying to see how he

685
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 7: could do it for the Steelers.

686
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 6: So we'll see how the practice week plays out. They

687
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 6: could beat the Bears with Mason Rudolph. To me, the

688
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 6: value of Rogers is when you get to the postseason.

689
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 6: I think they can finish the season with Rudolph and

690
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 6: be ten and seven, nine and eight and make the playoffs.

691
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 6: What happens after that, I don't know. With Mason Rudolph,

692
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 6: rod the hope or what she wanted to find out,

693
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 6: I guess is what the Rogers would be that difference

694
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 6: making guy, which is what they brought him here to

695
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 6: be in the first place, A difference making guy in

696
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 6: the postseason last six quarters, he hasn't been that guy.

697
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 1: Were you able to snag a call for us from

698
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 1: the post game? For uh, well, we got Jake working

699
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 1: on it.

700
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 3: Let's see, we'll do it after the break, but we'll

701
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 3: we'll offer a season.

702
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 1: He was not up in arms after a thirty four

703
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 1: to twelve.

704
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 3: Ye. I know usually they're they're they're quite good spirits.

705
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh, but I enjoyed the postgame and you definitely

706
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 1: had some calls to choose from couple a couple. Mike

707
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 1: just let some rant and goes, thanks for the car.

708
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 1: You know what.

709
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 6: Johnny Smith one other thing. He's a non factor, all right.

710
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 6: Like they made that trade. I thought it was a

711
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 6: great trade initially, but now Ramsey's back doing what Mincon

712
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 6: did and Jonas Smith.

713
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 1: Isn't catching any passes. Yeah, so what was the pluket?

714
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 6: But that changing of the guard at tight end is

715
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 6: not serving Friarmouth and it's not serving Smith.

716
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 3: But of the Ramsey move that was necessitated by injury,

717
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 3: I mean Elliott being out.

718
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 6: They also nescessitated, but they didn't have a free safety.

719
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 6: I mean, Elliott was a strong safety. They thought thorn

720
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 6: Hill was gonna play free safety, eh, they thought Chuck

721
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 6: Clark was gonna play Eh. Like, what was the point

722
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 6: If johonnas Smith is gonna get they got dolphined two

723
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 6: targets for zero yards?

724
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 1: What was the point? What was the point?

725
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 5: Don't we always talk about Johonnah Smith as though he's

726
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 5: a essentially a big wide receiver.

727
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: Why can't they can they line him up at wide

728
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 1: receiver and thank you?

729
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 6: Maybe that's an option for number two wide receiver, but

730
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 6: the whole let's keep having different tight ends in the game.

731
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 6: Every down is not working. Friarmuth had one hundred and

732
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 6: eleven yards against the Bengals the last time they played.

733
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: They targeted him one time yesterday.

734
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 3: Quick Break will come back one more with Rob King,

00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 3: to put in this hour. I think we did it

745
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 3: with Stanley when you Yeah, I did the postgames. We're

746

Speaker 3: helm of both the pregame and postgame show.

748
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 1: I Steeler Sandwich and uh.

749
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 3: We always would grab one question from the postgame show

750
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 3: to kick it around ourselves and also because I like

751
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 3: to just you know, listen into the character of Steeler

752
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 3: fans post game, be it a win or a loss,

753
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 3: and get a sense of their demeanor. Well, with yesterday

754
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 3: being the immacuw spit ejection, this is their take on

755
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 3: the Jalen Ramsey situation.

756
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 1: From a caller, Hey, how.

757
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 8: Can you possibly say that Kalen Ramsey has had a

758
00:33:57,080 --> 00:34:00,440
Speaker 8: successful season this year with the Steelers. He missed the

759
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 8: entire fourth quarter for the Steelers today. You got kicked

760
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 8: out of the game.

761
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 1: You can't get kicked out of the games.

762
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 8: You want to be a leader.

763
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 6: I just don't think that way. So nine and a

764
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 6: half games of what he's brought.

765
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 1: To this team.

766
00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:17,399
Speaker 9: Correct, and I understand the emotional ties and everybody say

767
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:20,680
Speaker 9: you need to be cool, but the ultimate disrespect is

768
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,720
Speaker 9: being spit on. And we didn't see the spit happened.

769
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 9: We All we saw was the rejection or ejection of

770
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 9: him from the game. But you go back right now,

771
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 9: social media is blowing up and people are zooming in

772
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 9: and you could see Jamar Chase. Even though he lied

773
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 9: about it in his postgame press conference and said I

774
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 9: did not spit on him, video evidence shows otherwise. And

775
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,879
Speaker 9: right there, I can understand the reaction that Jalen had.

776
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 9: I don't I understand it. Yes, you need to have

777
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 9: cooler heads, need to prevail on the field, but the

778
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 9: ultimate disrespect is being spit on. This hard for a

779
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 9: man to now not do something about that. That's all

780
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 9: I'm gonna say about it. That things will be addressed,

781
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,840
Speaker 9: And that's Mike Tomland did not go overboard as it

782
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 9: relates to Jalen getting ejected from it because he understood.

783
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 8: Out of the fourth quarter of the game, we need

784
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:10,319
Speaker 8: him in the game.

785
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:16,760
Speaker 9: Is all I'm saying. Is man the man. If somebody

786
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 9: want to spit on you, you will not sit there and

787
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 9: say I'll take that. I'm in control my emotions. I'm

788
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 9: not gonna do anything. If you do say that, you're lying.

789
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,440
Speaker 6: The only exception would be when you played for Coward.

790
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 6: He'd get in your face and he'd do it accidentally.

791
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:33,799
Speaker 1: When you purposely spit.

792
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 9: On a man, there's there's no man out here that's

793
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,200
Speaker 9: going to say that. You're not going to stand there

794
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 9: and just say, hey, I take that, thanks for spitting

795
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:40,719
Speaker 9: on me.

796
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 1: I'm not going to do anything you want me to

797
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 1: believe if that's what you do.

798
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 8: If you're between Dak Prescott and Jayalen Carter, we're talking.

799
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,439
Speaker 9: About jam and Ramsey, we're not talking about anybody else.

800
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:54,359
Speaker 9: But again that that when we're talking about Jalen Ramsey here.

801
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 8: Yeah, and he got kicked out of the game. We

802
00:35:58,200 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 8: need him in the fourth quarter of the game. Don't

803
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 8: make excuses for it.

804
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:05,319
Speaker 9: I'm not answering your question. I said, man the man.

805
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:06,880
Speaker 9: If somebody with a spit on you, you're not going

806
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 9: to stand there.

807
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 1: No, you can walk away.

808
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:12,080
Speaker 8: Anybody can want you.

809
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 9: Well, you trust me, you're not going to walk away.

810
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,439
Speaker 9: There's not You're getting emotional talking to me, right now.

811
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,239
Speaker 9: So there's no way in heck if I were to

812
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 9: stand there in front of you and spit on you,

813
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 9: that you're just going to stand there and take it.

814
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 8: I'm not paid two million dollars to finish the game.

815
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 8: Jalen Ramsey's paid two million dollars per game to play

816
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:34,759
Speaker 8: four quarters.

817
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 6: They absolutely don't want him to get kicked out, Andrew,

818
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,360
Speaker 6: But I think you know, it's a big deal that

819
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:41,319
Speaker 6: he got kicked out because of how well he has

820
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 6: done and because of how important he is to the team.

821
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:48,279
Speaker 6: Wouldn't you agree, Like, yeah, it's it's a mistake. They

822
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 6: don't want to see it happen again, but there are

823
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 6: extenuating circumstances. I think they'll, uh, they'll live through it,

824
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:56,959
Speaker 6: learn from it, and move on. But they definitely want

825
00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 6: Jalen Ramsey out there. They're better with them than without it.

826
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 6: There's no question about that. Absolutely, And we're going.

827
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:04,640
Speaker 8: To bow out in the first round again.

828
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 1: Thanks. Oh my god, Oh my god. I love Andrew

829
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 1: so great. I like that Charlie was getting fired. Charlie

830
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 1: got hot. Yeah, And what show like to me?

831
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 5: If it's if you're supposed to be a leader of

832
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 5: the defense, if he's the one that's communicating to me.

833
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 5: That is like, maybe in an indirect way, but that's

834
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 5: a show of leadership. That's a that's a show of like,

835
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,240
Speaker 5: I'm not taking this from anybody, Like we're the Steelers defense,

836
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 5: Like what what We're not going to take that.

837
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 6: I mean, it's it's nuanced. I get where Andrew was

838
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 6: coming from. The best players on the team should be

839
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,480
Speaker 6: among the most disciplined.

840
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:42,400
Speaker 1: And there was a lot of time. They need to

841
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:43,839
Speaker 1: be available. There's a lot of time left. Thing.

842
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:45,479
Speaker 3: It was an eight two. He gave him a first down.

843
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 3: I mean, it was a big deal there, that was

844
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 3: fourth and one.

845
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 6: But I think I went back a little later after

846
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 6: that to the Joey Porter thing, and you know, you

847
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:59,880
Speaker 6: can't ask a guy to be emotionally charged and vicious

848
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 6: and violent, which is what they have described Ramsey as

849
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:06,799
Speaker 6: as a as terms of environment, and then just say, okay,

850
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 6: go right up to that line, but never cross it.

851
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:13,399
Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, Matt Cook and if well, and if

852
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 6: you get spit on, that's that's not a crackback block

853
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 6: or a bleep talk or something like. He felt he

854
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,000
Speaker 6: had to deal with that right then and there. The

855
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,280
Speaker 6: way he did, and I can't say he was wrong.

856
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:28,239
Speaker 6: And I also took a little bit of a cue

857
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,400
Speaker 6: from Mike Tomin just listening. When the game ends, I

858
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 6: go into the radio booth and I hear Tomlin's press

859
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,479
Speaker 6: conference on the headset before we start, and Tomal didn't

860
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 6: laugh it off, but he wasn't livid about it. So

861
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 6: I what I interpreted from Tomlin's remarks was a level

862
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:46,320
Speaker 6: of understanding as to why it happened.

863
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:47,800
Speaker 1: Not not an.

864
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,920
Speaker 6: Approval of it or a dismissal of it, but an understanding.

865
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 3: Thank Kinger, this is such a non football thing, you know,

866
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,439
Speaker 3: it's sort of outside the lines. And as Mike pointed out,

867
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:01,280
Speaker 3: it's tough to ask these guys to be known for

868
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 3: being violent and give off that air of all you're

869
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 3: gonna run across the middle, You're gonna pay for it,

870
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 3: and keep all those emotions in check. I mean, I

871
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,120
Speaker 3: think Andrew, in his call there is asking for this

872
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 3: perfect scenario of Jalen being able to assess the entire

873
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 3: situation and realize that even though he was spat upon,

874
00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,840
Speaker 3: it was fourth and one and you gave them a

875
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 3: first down and took yourself out of the game. In

876
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,239
Speaker 3: the time when we already have too many injuries in

877
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,800
Speaker 3: the secondary to lose maybe our best player on defense

878
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:28,319
Speaker 3: right now.

879
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe you shouldn't have been John with Chase to

880
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 1: begin with.

881
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 3: You know what I mean, if you roll that back

882
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 3: to play after you've to play, after your one penalty

883
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 3: away from being thrown out of the game, maybe you

884
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 3: should just avoid that situation.

885
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:43,359
Speaker 8: Though.

886
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 3: That's Jalen Well. I called him the best player on

887
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 3: the defense. I think he kind of has been for

888
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 3: the Steelers. Uh tj Watt yesterday got called for roughing

889
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 3: the passer or you know whatever that is, abusing the

890
00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,359
Speaker 3: quarterback what do they call it now, where he put

891
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 3: all his weight on him or something like that. Flacco,

892
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:08,320
Speaker 3: I believe that is the case. Uh personally, I'm not sure,

893
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 3: like Jeane's territor, whether or not it constituted roughing the

894
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 3: passer by putting his weight on him. But even if

895
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,399
Speaker 3: it did, I'm okay with taking the chance to put

896
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 3: a shot on Joe Flacco and get you one play

897
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:22,760
Speaker 3: closer to Jake Browning at quarterback. Max was beside himself

898
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 3: on that call, and of course we can't hear when

899
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 3: they go to Jeane's territor or whatever I mean. Right,

900
00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:29,880
Speaker 3: The only thing I could think of was it certainly

901
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:32,400
Speaker 3: wasn't late was and is that what they said that

902
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:34,760
Speaker 3: they he leaned on him, he put the weight out, Yes.

903
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,480
Speaker 1: Yeah he did.

904
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:40,920
Speaker 3: He could have done a better job of barrel rolling

905
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,360
Speaker 3: off of him, yes, but I have no problem with it.

906
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:46,360
Speaker 6: That is a difficult spot that they put these defenders in,

907
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 6: but that is the protocol.

908
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,439
Speaker 1: Yes, you have to be able to hit the guy

909
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 1: and not land on him. Land on him. It's a penalty.

910
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 3: I was okay with them landing on him even if

911
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:57,799
Speaker 3: it was a penalty, because maybe they won't call it

912
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 3: and at that point in the game knock him out.

913
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 4: Welcome mister Browning. By the way, I hope. I don't

914
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,839
Speaker 4: know who the Bengals are playing this week. They're not

915
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,840
Speaker 4: playing the They're not putting there. I think that the

916
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:15,320
Speaker 4: Ravens have the Jets and then the Bengals, maybe because

917
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:17,399
Speaker 4: I want to see if they're gonna do something with Chase,

918
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:19,880
Speaker 4: but I don't want to. I certainly would not want

919
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 4: to see him get suspended for the Ravens.

920
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:24,080
Speaker 1: Patriots. Keep him out there, Okay, okay, good, good, all right?

921
00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Ravens are the week after and that's a

922
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 3: Thursday night game that's right in Baltimore. That's Thanksgiving. Oh

923
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 3: yeah right, yeah, Thanksgiving night we get Bengals Ravens. Nice
