He's 81 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 5: the first Twins manager with prior managing experience. Since the seventies, 82 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 5: they've always hired people that don't have any and whatever. 83 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 5: It worked with Ron garden Hier, didn't work with Paul Molitor, 84 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 5: but still a great dude. 85 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 6: I like that guy. 86 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is I mean whatever. 87 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 5: They weren't going to hire, you know, the Rolls Royce 88 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 5: of managers because you say that word, the Lamborghinia managers. 89 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 5: Such guys, I mean the managers. Yeah, the Corvette isn't 90 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 5: Bruce Bochi. Yeah, what kind of vehicle is he?

He's not the Ferrari or 95 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 4: the Lamborghini though. Yeah, he's just a bench coach. 96 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 6: It's like a Ford Maverick. 97 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 3: Is that a real car. 98 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 6: Hell, Yeah, man used to be a car now. 99 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 4: I haven't seen the movie Maverick in a long time 100 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 4: with Mel Gibson Jody Foster. 101 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 6: That's a game changer. 102 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 4: I think they're playing cards in there. 103 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 3: It can't be that good. It's actually pretty good. That's 104 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 3: a movie. It's the Ferrari of movies. 105 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, the Ferrari in movies. It's the stagecoach of movies. 106 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 8: Uh. 107 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 4: The Los Angeles Lakers won at the Buzzer last night. 108 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 3: Well, geez, a floater down the middle of the lane. 109 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 4: Austin Reeves at the buzzer twenty eight points, including the 110 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 4: game winner one sixteen, one fifteen. The Wolves had a 111 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 4: furious comeback, but they got burnt at the buzzer. Stevencenzo 112 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 4: right there, Rudy right there, Neither one of them really 113 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 4: got a hand in his face, and Austin nailed it. 114 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 3: So Reeves has twenty eight. They win. 115 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 4: The Wolves fall to two and three. The Lakers are 116 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 4: three and two. The Wolves are at Charlotte Saturday at five. 117 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 5: It's five games in. It's over for Rudy. It's over, right, Max, 118 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 5: So I think it's over. 119 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 8: I think a lot of people were already predicting that 120 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 8: Rudy might just fall off a cliff metaphorically this year, 121 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 8: not literally, but but yeah, it seems like he not 122 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 8: the same caliber of player that we're that we're. 123 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 3: Quite used to. 124 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 8: But it's there's no Anthony Edwards, and it is it 125 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 8: is early in the season, so it's kind of it's 126 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 8: kind of hard to completely diagnose the team. 127 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 3: And I mean not for nothing. 128 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 8: Austin Reefs has been on absolute fire this last three 129 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 8: I think he had fifty points through a couple of 130 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 8: games ago, forty game, forty points the game before this, 131 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 8: and then twenty eight here plus the game winner. So 132 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 8: it's it's always going to be tough to win without 133 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 8: Anthony Edwards. But Julius Randa looks great, Jade McDaniels looks 134 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 8: like his offense has taken a step forward. We just 135 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 8: we just got to get ant back in the mix 136 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 8: to see what this Wolves team is truly capable of. 137 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 4: The Minnesota Wild host the Penguins at seven o'clock. The 138 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 4: Wild that are struggling. They're three five and three. Pittsburgh's 139 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 4: the opposite. They're on fire, seven two and two, including 140 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 4: four one and one on the road. Sidney Crosby eight 141 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 4: goals through eleven games and he has seven assists. Couple 142 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 4: of Minnesota connections with the Penguins, they have former wild 143 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 4: defenseman Matt Dumba on the squad. 144 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 3: Remember Matt, Oh yeah, great dude. And they also have 145 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 3: Blake Lazatte from. 146 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 4: Chicagoago Lake, Chicago, his very own Blake Lizatte grew up 147 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 4: in Lenstrom, Minnesota Huskies. 148 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 3: I mean the Wildcats. Let's let's take it down that good. 149 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 6: That's what they used to say to Sauce when he 150 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 6: went into the store to my pass. 151 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 9: Boys, you know, I. 152 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 5: You can be all you want.

It's something 226 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 10: where you're just you're finding a way to like another 227 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 10: good guy to have around.

But 278 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 2: of course we know the win situation, we know he 279 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 2: had surgery. We can get your comments on your thoughts 280 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 2: on whether he stayed in too long, if it all 281 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 2: went correctly in your opinion, But more importantly for us 282 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 2: as Vikings fans, now we're looking forward JJ take the Helm. 283 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 6: What do expect against the Lions from JJ this week? 284 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 7: It's gonna be really fascinating to see. You know, he's 285 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 7: had time to get the ankle to a place where 286 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 7: it feels really good about the mobility, which was always 287 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,199 Speaker 7: a huge piece of this. And for the first time 288 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 7: since before the opener, he's taken real first team full 289 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 7: reps in practice. So I think that you have to 290 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 7: set realistic expectations if I'm the coaching staff, I just 291 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 7: want to see is he playing on time? Is the 292 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 7: ball going to the right spot. There were certainly times, 293 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 7: you know, in the Falcons game and even early in 294 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 7: the Bears game, where it just seemed like things are 295 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 7: a little bit frantic, maybe sped up in the pocket, 296 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 7: and you know, rather than standing in and going through 297 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 7: his reads, he's kind of getting off and seeing the rush. 298 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 7: I just want to see a guy, you know, who's 299 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 7: going out there and being comfortable. I'm sure that Kevin 300 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 7: O'Connell have a great plan for trying to get JJ 301 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 7: you know, into the rhythm of the game. You still 302 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 7: got really good skilled players around him. You're going up 303 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 7: against the Lions defense. You know, that's been you know, 304 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 7: had some bumps along the way so far this season, 305 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 7: but they've been playing pretty well of late. And obviously, 306 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 7: you know, Aiden Hutchinson just got a you know, about 307 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 7: a quarter of a billion dollars to keep rushing the passer. 308 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 7: You know that that's the first guy that you've got 309 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 7: to stop. You know, you got to keep Aiden Hutchinson 310 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 7: Parthy's life miserable. The fact that it seems like the 311 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 7: tackles of training the right direction would definitely help. 312 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 12: All Right, I want to I do want to go 313 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 12: back to the Carson Wentz thing only to get your 314 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 12: perspective because I find it. 315 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 3: I'm trying to think of the right word. I think 316 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 3: it's been. 317 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 12: It's silly, the amount of traction and the vitriol and 318 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 12: the anger that the football world, even Viking fans have 319 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 12: about the way everything was treated. Because I look at 320 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 12: this as this is no different than any other player 321 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 12: that's going out there with an injury. Your week six 322 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 12: or seven into the football season, every single dude out 323 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 12: there is playing with some sort of injury. Yes, it's 324 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 12: much more front and center because you see the pain 325 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 12: that he's in. You know that he's wearing the armbrace 326 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 12: and the shoulder harness and all this other stuff. Baker 327 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 12: Mayfield had this exact same injury and he played through 328 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 12: it years ago, and nobody was like, we got to 329 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 12: take this guy off the field. You've got to protect 330 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 12: this guy from himself. Are you a little surprised at 331 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 12: all given the state of the NFL and what will you? 332 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 9: What? 333 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 3: It really is that that. 334 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 12: The Vikings organization and Carson Wentz has been like connected 335 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 12: into this like conspiracy theory, so to speak. 336 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 7: Well, I feel like the Vikings quarterback ground has been 337 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 7: subject to NonStop conspiracy theories for about two years running now, 338 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 7: So no, that part doesn't surprise me. And that is 339 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 7: the reaction. If we're talking about social media and fans 340 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 7: and media, that's that's what sells is you got to 341 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 7: have the strong take and you know, condemn things that 342 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 7: you don't know about. I'd say, you know a couple 343 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 7: of things here, Ben, you played in the league, and 344 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 7: you're right. I mean, guys play hurt all the time. 345 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 7: I think that sometimes when you hear the details and 346 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 7: you hear the medical terms for what was going on, 347 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 7: it's like, oh my yeah, Like how in the world. 348 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 7: It's like guys are playing with injuries all the time 349 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 7: that you the average person wouldn't go to the grocery 350 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 7: store and walk around with you'd be in a rascal 351 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 7: before you'd actually be you know, walking around, you know, 352 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,640 Speaker 7: picking up some you know, stuff to make meat loaf, 353 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 7: like you know, even like yesterday when Cam Scataboo, the 354 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 7: details of that injury come out and it's like, whoa 355 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 7: not just a dislocation, it was a fracture and a 356 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 7: torn ligament. It's like, yeah, did you see his foot? 357 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 7: It was at a ninety degree angle. Like that's how 358 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 7: that happens, is you tear stuff and you break stuff. 359 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 7: With Carson Wentz, if you know, if you talk about 360 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,160 Speaker 7: it in terms of the medical terms, you dislocated the shoulder, 361 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 7: torn laborm and fractured the socket. Well, first of all, 362 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 7: that's what a dislocated shoulder is. It has to tear 363 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 7: the ligament to come out, which is why when that happens, 364 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,439 Speaker 7: your options are a harness that holds it in place, 365 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 7: you know, keeps it from sublexing or dislocating again, or 366 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 7: you have surgery and you get it fixed. And some 367 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 7: guys play years. I mean Dalvin Cook literally played four 368 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 7: years with a torn labor m in his shoulder. There 369 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 7: were times where it would pop out again and then 370 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 7: you'd see him come back with a harness, and then 371 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 7: it was the back and forth of all. I don't 372 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 7: like wearing the harness, you know. With Carson Wentz, this 373 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 7: was a pain management issue. It was about how uncomfortable 374 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 7: he was and how much pain he was in. But 375 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 7: you know, you made the point on Baker Mayfield. Yeah, 376 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 7: this is a it's a chip fracture, that's what it is. 377 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 7: Baker played with it. He was in a lot of pain. 378 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 7: He was dealing with other injuries at the time as well. 379 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,679 Speaker 7: But you saw the same type of a you know, 380 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 7: boxer in the tenth round type of thing where you 381 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,439 Speaker 7: kept going, how is this guy getting up? You know, 382 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 7: should he be coming out? But Carson Wentz wanted to play. 383 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 7: Start there, Carson Wentz wanted to play. This is it's 384 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 7: to his non throwing shoulder, and this is not an 385 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 7: injury that gets worse. Yes, it is hard to watch 386 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 7: it every time, even when he's not getting hit. There 387 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 7: was that ball that got tipped up in the air 388 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 7: and he reached for it and you could see the pain, 389 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 7: but you know, the harness was holding the shoulder in. 390 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 7: It was a matter of, you know, how far could 391 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 7: he push it, how much pain could he deal with. 392 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 7: Carson also threw a touchdown in that game and celebrated. 393 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 7: You know, when it was not painful for him. 394 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 10: He was able to go out there and function. 395 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 7: The Vitras felt like he gave them the best chance 396 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 7: to win. 397 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 10: That's why he was on the football field. He was 398 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 10: not making the injury worse. 399 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 7: He was not you know, he's not having surgery now 400 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 7: because they left him in He's having surgery now because 401 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 7: he just couldn't deal with the pain anymore. And you know, 402 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,160 Speaker 7: he showed remarkable toughness to stay on the field as 403 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 7: long as he did. You know, this was not you know, 404 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 7: from a medical perspective, from a coaching perspective, I've talked 405 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 7: to a bunch of people within the league that this 406 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 7: was not malpracticed by anybody. This was a quarterback who 407 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 7: wanted to be on the field. He functioned for two 408 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 7: and a half games with this injury. It just got 409 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 7: to be too much and the smart thing to do 410 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 7: was to go and get it fixed at this time, 411 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 7: which now means it's JJ McCarthy and Max Brosmer and 412 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 7: John Wolford on the practice squad. That's who you're rolling 413 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 7: with Barne to trade by next Tuesday and we'll get 414 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 7: a taste on Sunday against the Lions And what exactly 415 00:19:59,080 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 7: this is going to look like? 416 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 5: Tom, how much do you think it was he possibly 417 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 5: knew that was the last time he'd ever play in 418 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 5: the NFL. 419 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 7: Well, you know, you never know when your your opportunities 420 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 7: are going to end. Sa Uce, I mean you know, 421 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 7: could it be sure? But he wants to keep playing. 422 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:16,679 Speaker 7: He's got his fourth child on the way in a 423 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 7: couple of days here. You know he wants to continue 424 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 7: to go out there. But you know, in order to 425 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 7: do that, yeah, long term, you know, you don't want 426 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 7: to just leave the shoulder like it is now and 427 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 7: then be in pain next offseason. By getting it taken 428 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 7: care of, he should by next offseason be ready to roll. 429 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 7: Does his opportunity come in March? Is it in May? 430 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 7: Is it in August? Is it in October? He's at 431 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,239 Speaker 7: that stage in his career and playing for as many 432 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 7: different teams as he has where you just don't know 433 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 7: that from year to year. You know, this was not 434 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 7: you know, a pitcher who knows he needs Tommy John 435 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 7: and just throwing until the the UCL ruptures. And this 436 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 7: was you know, a guy again it's his non throwing shoulder. 437 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 7: It felt terrible obviously when he'd land on it, and 438 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 7: it was getting progressively worse in terms of the. 439 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 10: Pain and the discomfort. The injury was what it was. 440 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 7: I don't think that this was you know, him feeling 441 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 7: like this is you know, my final shot and they're 442 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,400 Speaker 7: going to drag me out of here. It was more 443 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 7: so he wanted to be there for the team. He 444 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 7: doesn't know how many opportunities he's gonna get. You know, 445 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 7: he gave it as all. He helped them, you know, 446 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 7: be able to go out there and get a win 447 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 7: against the Browns with that injury. 448 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 10: It just you know, it was too much for him. 449 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 7: And so you know, now we roll forward here and 450 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 7: see exactly you know, what it's going to look like 451 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 7: for the Vikings quarterbacker in the future. 452 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 12: All right, Tom Pela Sara brought to you by our 453 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 12: friends at Bellbank. We love you guys at Bellbank, so 454 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:35,680 Speaker 12: appreciate it. My question then kind of shifts into Sunday. 455 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 12: I know that the point spread is what it is. 456 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 12: It's rather large in NFL standards, and a lot of 457 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 12: people are a previewing this game saying the Vikings have 458 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 12: zero shot to win this game. From your perspective, though, 459 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 12: could you sell us a little bit of hope, Like, 460 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:54,160 Speaker 12: are there storylines along with this Vikings team that you think, hey, 461 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 12: if they do this and they do that, they've got 462 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 12: a good chance to walk out of Ford Field with 463 00:21:58,880 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 12: the victory. 464 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 7: Would start with what we witnessed last Thursday night, against 465 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 7: the Chargers. 466 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 10: It's a short week. Christian Darisa tries to give it 467 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:07,239 Speaker 10: a go. 468 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 7: Can't make it just you know, four day turnaround, three 469 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,439 Speaker 7: days really with an LA flight, it just wasn't happening. 470 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:17,200 Speaker 7: Brian O'Neil again, short week, couldn't make it. You know, 471 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 7: they're really playing with like their fourth and fifth offensive 472 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,400 Speaker 7: tackles behind a backup quarterback who's in pain every time 473 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 7: he gets touched. I mean, that's that's a lot, you know, 474 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 7: just to begin with here, and so you know, I 475 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 7: don't think that was really representative what we saw last 476 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 7: Thursday night of what this Vikings team can be. You know, 477 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 7: Andrew van Ginko being a full participant in practice yesterday, 478 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 7: it would be huge to get him back for the defense. 479 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:40,120 Speaker 10: We'll see. 480 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 7: I know he was non committal in terms of whether 481 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 7: he plays on Sunday, but generally, when a guy goes full, 482 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 7: as a lot of people learned from the Ravens fiasco 483 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 7: over the weekend, if you're listed as full, that means 484 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 7: you are taking your normal reps, which for Andrew Van 485 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 7: Ginko would mean starter reps on defense throughout the course 486 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,679 Speaker 7: of practice. Again, we'll see whether or not. You know, 487 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 7: he feels like he can go, and the medical team feels, 488 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 7: you know, confident that that neck is not going to 489 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 7: be an issue. If they get him back, that would 490 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 7: be a big deal. And you know, in terms of 491 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 7: the Lions, you know, I don't know that this is 492 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 7: a you know, completely unstoppable unit. 493 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 10: You know, they face the Chiefs. 494 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 7: And they didn't play particularly well in any phase in 495 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 7: that game. So there is a formula to get after 496 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 7: these guys. They're really talented. They're one of the best 497 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 7: coach teams in the league, led by Dan Campbell. But 498 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 7: we've seen other teams, you know, slow them down through 499 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 7: the course of the season, whether that was in the 500 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 7: opener against Green Bay or was that game that they 501 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:37,880 Speaker 7: played against Kansas City here. So you know, Brian Flores 502 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 7: is going to find, you know, unique ways to attack. 503 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 7: You got to keep Jamir Gibbs from killing you, number one. 504 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 7: You know that's their their best player. He can hurt 505 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 7: you in a lot of different ways in the rushing 506 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 7: phase and the receiving phase. You know that Jared Golf 507 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 7: is going to find ways to play on time. But 508 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 7: if you can disrupt that timing, you can potentially disrupt 509 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 7: Jared Goff and then offensively again, a lot of it's 510 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 7: going to come down to how do they go about 511 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 7: design a game plan in supporting JJ McCarthy If they 512 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 7: can get him in a rhythm early. You know, you 513 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 7: got Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, DJ Hockinson, and your 514 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 7: backfield back you would think now at full strength, where 515 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 7: Aaron Jones was a little bit limited last Thursday night. 516 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 7: And then like again the offensive line, Ryan Kelly's not 517 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 7: going to be back, but if both tackles are able 518 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 7: to go, that's a really big deal for this team. 519 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:24,880 Speaker 7: So I'm fascinated to see it. You know, we all 520 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 7: know how it went last year in Week eighteen. It 521 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,119 Speaker 7: was the game that I don't mean to oversimplify, but 522 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 7: certainly it was a game that drove their decision not. 523 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 10: To go all in on Sam Donald. 524 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 7: They've always had a high level of faith in JJ McCarthy, 525 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,479 Speaker 7: but when people now are watching what's happening in Seattle going, 526 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:42,120 Speaker 7: how could they let. 527 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 10: Sam Donald go? Number One, they made him an offer. 528 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:46,439 Speaker 7: I mean, they did try to bring him back, just 529 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:48,920 Speaker 7: like they made a pretty comparable offer to Daniel Jones. 530 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 7: But it's like, if you watch that Week eighteen game, 531 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 7: and you watch Sam Donald play the worst he played 532 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 7: the entire season. I mean, this was the playoff game. 533 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 7: Was a mess on every front. Sam Donald was the 534 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 7: main issue in Week eighteen. I mean, how many throws 535 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 7: did he miss wide open to JJ or Justin Jefferson 536 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,880 Speaker 7: in the end zone. They could have flipped that game 537 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 7: in the early going. You know it wasn't perfect, But 538 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 7: we've seen the Vikings play this team. Well, let's see 539 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 7: if they can put it together. Maybe surprise him a 540 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,880 Speaker 7: little bit with a quarterback that we just haven't seen 541 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 7: play a whole lot over the two years he's been 542 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 7: in the league. 543 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 4: Final point or two before we let Tom go because 544 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 4: Jonathan Greenard should be joining us here in a side. 545 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 3: That's the end of the plan. 546 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 2: Real quick, before you, is that one hundred below in 547 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 2: your house? You look, you've got a stocking cap on 548 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 2: is window there? 549 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 10: The honest answers. I got a haircut after. 550 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 3: This, finally, the Jesus about time. 551 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 10: The only hat I had in the office, so I 552 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:42,640 Speaker 10: threw it on real quick. 553 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 3: Oh my god, oh god, get a haircut, lucky jeez. 554 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 6: Good. 555 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:50,880 Speaker 10: Twenty minutes from now, twenty minutes from now, Jenna will 556 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 10: be taking care. 557 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 3: Of it here. Must be nice. It sounds like she's 558 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,679 Speaker 3: coming to your house. Personal assistant. Anyway, and get over there. 559 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 4: Okay, Tom, this will be the last time we tell 560 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 4: you before the trade deadline, which is Tuesday. If you're 561 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 4: a Vikings fan, what should they be watching for before Tuesday? 562 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 4: And how much does Sunday's game impact that trade deadline 563 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 4: on Tuesday? 564 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 7: You know, one game should never impact that. I think realistically, 565 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 7: for every team in the league, there's some level of impact, 566 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 7: particularly if you're a team at the Vikings that's three 567 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 7: and four kind of hovering around the middle and figuring out, 568 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 7: are we trying to make a run or you know, 569 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 7: if they lose that game and they fall to three 570 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 7: and five, it's like you're talking about darn, you're running 571 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 7: the table to get into the playoffs. I know the 572 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 7: quasi's always going to be aggressive. He's been working the 573 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 7: phones this week. You'll continue to do that. I right 574 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 7: now sitting here, wouldn't hold my breath for some type 575 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 7: of a massive swing. You know. Obviously, depending how you 576 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 7: know JJ plays on Sunday, there will be speculation about 577 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 7: should they go out and trade for a quarterback? There's 578 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 7: one guy in Atlanta sitting there making a lot of 579 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 7: money who has won a lot of games. 580 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,400 Speaker 10: And played good football in Minnesota. 581 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 7: I don't get any sense right now that that's realistic 582 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 7: going and getting Kirk Cousins for the Vikings. But again, 583 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 7: you know, let's see, let's see JJ. First of all, 584 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 7: get through a game and then figure out what the 585 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 7: plan is going to be for the rest of the season. 586 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 7: You know, just speaking broadly to the league, there's a 587 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 7: lot of teams that need dead rushers, there's a lot 588 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 7: of teams that need corners, and certainly there are some 589 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 7: teams that need running backs and receivers as well. I 590 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 7: don't anticipate the Vikings being big sellers at the deadline either, 591 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 7: but again, if something's there in terms of value that 592 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 7: makes sense, I wouldn't rule out, you know, anything including 593 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,479 Speaker 7: making a trade that might you know, reinforce the Vikings 594 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 7: draft capital as we move forward. But in terms of 595 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 7: anything being imminent right now, there's nothing imminent on that 596 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,880 Speaker 7: trade front. A lot of this stuff, though you'd hope, 597 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 7: is going to pick up, because this has been about 598 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 7: as slow of a month leading up to the trade 599 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,679 Speaker 7: deadline as we've seen in recent years. 600 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 2: Real quick at Jonathan Gernard, Minnesota Viking is on the 601 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 2: phone with us right now. Do you have any bad 602 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 2: blood with Tom pellisera, Jonathan, do you have anything you 603 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,120 Speaker 2: need to say to NFL Networks? 604 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 9: To man?

It's just a fan the different coaching styles. 684 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 2: When we're talking about a KO and Dan Campbell. 685 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 6: How would that? 686 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 2: How do you prefer to be coached somebody who seems 687 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 2: to be you know, I'll just say like this, Dan 688 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 2: Campbell talked about biting people's knees and his opening press conference, 689 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 2: is that Is there any kind of coaching you prefer? 690 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 6: Does it even matter to you? 691 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 9: It really kind of doesn't matter. I can understand where 692 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 9: you like get it from like, you know, kind of 693 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 9: having the leader of you know, a guy who you 694 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 9: would say is more grittier, a different style. I guess 695 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 9: the way he talks are conveys the message to the 696 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 9: media or to his players, But overall it's about just 697 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 9: the intention when I see on the field in practice, 698 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:49,719 Speaker 9: like how you vote by to the days and practice, 699 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 9: how are you trying to get your guys to kind 700 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 9: of move with a certain montra And I think that 701 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 9: with ko I mean, he may be kind of like 702 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 9: the like you would think he sounded like an even 703 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 9: killed guy, you know, you know, laid back, kind of quieter, 704 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 9: you know, obviously still aspired to this. We all know that. 705 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 9: But Kale's no slopsh man. I think that just because 706 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 9: it's not more animated that you would see the other coaches. 707 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 9: I think that he can kind of give you a 708 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 9: little bit of everything. 709 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 5: You know. 710 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 9: He can be the guy who can kind of just 711 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 9: let the players do their thing and not really say much. 712 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:17,479 Speaker 9: And he also be the guy can be in your 713 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 9: face if he has to be that, you know, But 714 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 9: majority of the time he has guys on the team 715 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 9: already that are professionals that don't really have to have 716 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 9: that done to them for them to get them going. 717 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 9: But I think either coaches said as well, you see 718 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 9: that coach Campbell has done the mazing job over there 719 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 9: turning network around in having those guys bought in too. 720 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 9: So it's just a matter of what it's a matter 721 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 9: of what type of players you have on that team. 722 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 5: How much of your mindset changes knowing that this is 723 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 5: a team that will go forward on fourth down with 724 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 5: about any distance at about any point in the field. 725 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 9: Yeah, no, that that's a huge thing. I think that 726 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 9: that's just why you gotta continuously don't give up any 727 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 9: players at all. I mean, it's all about getting hats 728 00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 9: to the ball and let them get a little extra 729 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 9: yard where it should have been a tackle for loss 730 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 9: or maybe a tackle for three yards and it turns 731 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 9: into seven yards, not a you know, starting three or 732 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 9: fourth and three as opposed to you know, fourth and ten, 733 00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 9: you know what I mean. So, just the little stuff 734 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 9: like that, the leaky yards are a big deal with them. 735 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 9: They definitely take advantage of that, and they like their offensive, 736 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 9: like their scheme, which how can you not honestly, So, 737 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 9: I definitely see him as a challenge to definitely make 738 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 9: sure that we continuously knock them back and don't let 739 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 9: them get anything for them to get kind of that 740 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 9: confidence to so that they can do that. 741 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 4: Jonathan Grenard, Minnesota Vikings joins the Power to your morning 742 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 4: show every week.

They do what they did. 747 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 4: But you obviously see him in practice.

But Max has been great. 758 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 9: He's been on the scout team doing the looks for 759 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 9: us on our on our side of the ball for 760 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 9: a good bit. So I've seen it, and even i've 761 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 9: seen it in camp, him making great throws obviously, and 762 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 9: being able to be decisive and things like that.
