Now you're gonna play him, right, It's 81 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: like Jayden Daniels is gonna play eventually for Washington. 82 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 3: Doesn't make a lot of sense. 83 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: Your season is over, but you think, hey, you're a 84 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: football player. You want to go out there and play, 85 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: and we're not gonna stop you necessarily, But organizationally, I 86 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: never understand that once you're done, I would start playing 87 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: depth players. I would want to see what the rest 88 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: of my roster looks like as I'm making decisions. 89 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 3: And I know it's not that simple, But why isn't it. 90 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: Why why would that not be an organizational decision when 91 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: it comes to your star players. 92 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 4: Well, because you you have a fan base that for 93 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 4: those individuals who pay for season tickets and decided to 94 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 4: actually come to the games. You want to make sure 95 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,919 Speaker 4: that you put on a good show, right because it 96 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 4: is entertainment. It's football, but it's entertainment. 97 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 3: But the roster's not. 98 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: Deep enough that you don't play good players, Like if 99 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: Astrion Janney doesn't have an injury, I imagine, and especially 100 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 1: as a rookie, right, you just want to contain it 101 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 1: would be great to be able to sit Ashtrian Jenny 102 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: for the rest of the year, like wrapping them bubble 103 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: wrap and say we'll wait till next year. 104 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 3: But you don't have enough players on a roster. 105 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 1: Typically speaking to bench all your starters, right, or to 106 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: say that we're not going to play any of these 107 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 1: guys your offensive line, right, you don't have usually enough 108 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 1: depth from an offensive line standpoint to say for our starters, 109 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: we're not gonna play these guys. Defensive line is the 110 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 1: same thing. So I guess I'm saying so particular players. 111 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 4: Where you just well, okay, this would be load manager 112 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 4: bit being totally honest. With the Raiders in their offensive line, 113 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 4: even if they put the backup backups in, it's the 114 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 4: same level of production. So they figured out that we 115 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 4: might as well put our starters in. 116 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 5: We're going to get the same. 117 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 3: Level of products with the shade. So usually you're like 118 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 3: Nick Ferguson to take the high road guy anyway. 119 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 4: To go Well, I mean, it's not one of those 120 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 4: high road moments. It's I'm saying facts. These are actual facts. 121 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 4: It's like, oh, you have to just watch the game. 122 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 4: And I feel for asking Jenz because people have criticized him. 123 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 4: I feel for a guy like Chick Kelly, who I 124 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 4: think wrongfully was accused of what was going on. 125 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 5: And with the Raiders organization and Geno. 126 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 4: Smith, the idea is that with Max Frosby with this 127 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 4: knee right, it benefits the Denver Broncos offense. Now, if 128 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 4: you're thinking about this, even though you have to prepare 129 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 4: like everyone's going to start right, this would be great 130 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 4: if he did not play. Now, that's more time for 131 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 4: bow Knicks to operate. And Darren say, well, Bo had 132 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 4: what forty five passing attempts and I watched the game, 133 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 4: and I know some of those fell into overtime. Could 134 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 4: we see fifty fifty five passing attempts? 135 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 5: I think it's possible. 136 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 3: Well, that's who they are. 137 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: It's like what Dave said earlier when we were at 138 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 1: We're talking about the running backs. 139 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 3: We had Julia mcloughslon on and I. 140 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 1: Asked him, I asked you if we think the Broncos 141 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: should or will add a running back, because at this 142 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: point the only thing they've added is a wide receiver. 143 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,840 Speaker 1: And it's a team that continues to want to throw 144 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 1: the ball. I don't see that changing anytime soon. You'd 145 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 1: like to be able to run the ball. And maybe 146 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: there's this hope that JK. Dobbins will somehow miraculously come 147 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: back faster than what was predicted, because I mean, Sean. 148 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 3: Did allude to that. 149 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: I think it was last week when people were asking 150 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 1: him about the injury to Dobbins, and you know, the 151 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 1: initial timetable was he was going to be maybe out 152 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,919 Speaker 1: for the season, if not maybe the Super Bowl. But 153 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: then Sean kind of said, well, maybe you might be 154 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 1: back a little sooner than some people think. 155 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 3: And so which we're thinking. I think it is too 156 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 3: I think it's a little bit reckless. 157 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 4: Almost well okay, it's a little whisch we're thinking, but 158 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 4: it is something that is being spoken to existence so 159 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 4: the player can actually hear it, so he can now 160 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 4: push a little harder to get back sooner. But that's 161 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 4: one of those types of injuries you don't want to rush, right, 162 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 4: but at the same time, you still need to add 163 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,119 Speaker 4: a running back because it say you added a running 164 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 4: back and you're like, okay, well we want we don't 165 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 4: want to do it right now, because we trust the 166 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 4: guys that we have.

Hey, well you're 170 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 4: going into Christmas week against the Chiefs and you need 171 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 4: a running back and then you want to bring the 172 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 4: guy in that week. He's not going to be ready 173 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 4: for that game, right, So it's better to bring a 174 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 4: guy in now, get him up to speed. 175 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 5: With the offense. 176 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 4: Because we know Sean Payton's calls are very robust and long, 177 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 4: so you want to make sure that running back unless 178 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 4: you want to go one word you know plays And 179 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 4: I said it before with the way that you get 180 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 4: Bo Nicks into an early groove, you go Ricky Bobby right, Oh, 181 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 4: you were not here for that, so let me enlighten 182 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 4: you really quickly, Ricky Bobby tell todaya Knights, I want 183 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 4: to go fast. And we've seen the offense function well 184 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 4: with Bo when they're inn up tempo. So if you're 185 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 4: bringing anyone in or you want to go to a 186 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 4: really fast quick like a bunch of plays, you know 187 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 4: Sean has that big play sheet. 188 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 5: Just have a section. 189 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 4: Call him Ricky, Bobby, spider monkey, right shaking, bake Mountain. 190 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 4: Do quick calls that you can get in allow bo 191 00:08:58,280 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 4: to process. 192 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 5: Look at the defense boll We often run it. 193 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 3: That ain't with our velvet painting of a way. Let 194 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 3: a dolphin get in it home. 195 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,199 Speaker 1: I am I am a beacon of light, an optimism 196 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:15,599 Speaker 1: of light, an optimism. 197 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that must be a low light, very very 198 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 4: dim lighting for the optimism. 199 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: One of the textures said, hold on you guys, are 200 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: you guys have been on fire today asking uh, oh, Ryan, 201 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: I know what Nick is really whispering in Joe Little's ear. 202 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 1: We've been trying to contact you about your car's warranty. 203 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: That'd be weird message to send it encouraging though. 204 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 5: Not insured salesman. So the house the idea makes any sense. 205 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: So you do have a lot of jobs, So that's 206 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: that's not one of them. Yeah, some good some not 207 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: so great news for the Broncos. As far as the 208 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 1: injury front, so we mentioned just a moment ago. Max 209 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: Crosby was a d n P. Today did not practice 210 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: for the Raiders after being limited yesterday with a knee injury. 211 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: The Broncos today had Pat Bryans with a limited practice 212 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:05,199 Speaker 1: for a hamstring. 213 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 2: He was off. 214 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,079 Speaker 1: He wasn't even on the injury report yesterday, and then 215 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: Zach Allen did not practice today with a calf injury. 216 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: Now you know, you don't raise too many alarm bells 217 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: today because they still have another opportunity to practice tomorrow. 218 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: But it's something where DJ Jones is still not practicing. 219 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 1: I would say trending in the wrong direction. If Zach 220 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: Allen for some reason can't go that, what does that 221 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: do for our defensive line? 222 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 4: It changed a little as far as what you could 223 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,839 Speaker 4: do up front. Obviously you have different guys that you 224 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 4: could throw into the mix, but Zach Allen factor is 225 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 4: and has been that much of a factor, like last 226 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 4: season and this season, I mean six sacks. Well, what 227 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:54,199 Speaker 4: you don't really account for is the pressure rate. That's 228 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 4: where he comes in big. Either he's beating his guy 229 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 4: on a single blot or he's commanding the team taking 230 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 4: up two blockers, freeing someone else up on the edge. 231 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 4: And that's either Nick Benito or John Nan Cooper. So 232 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 4: that would be a huge impact because he's not just 233 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 4: an ever guy, Zach Allen, So to me, he's kind 234 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 4: of like in my mind, and I don't know if 235 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 4: you think about this the same way, but he is 236 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 4: the energy and the hard and soul of that defense 237 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 4: because everything starts upfront, so this would really hurt the 238 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 4: defense if he is unable to play or if he's limited. 239 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, if you're missing Zach Allen and DJ Jones, that 240 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,959 Speaker 1: seems significant. But you know, again, maybe some more snaps 241 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: for any any omo Azerique Saban Jones who's been a 242 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: healthy scratch you mission JFM, an opportunity maybe for a 243 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: little bit bigger role for him as he continues to 244 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: try to not only prove that he needs a contracts 245 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: extension front. 246 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 4: Okay, I don't think Jim has to prove that he's 247 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 4: done that thus far. It's just it's just a concept 248 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 4: and idea of if you want to give him that extension, 249 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 4: sure maybe, as I believe he has what four and 250 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 4: a half sacks, the proof. 251 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 3: Is pretty good, pretty dan good. All right. 252 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: When we come back, Benny Fowler is going to join us. 253 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: I want to talk to him obviously about a multitude thing. 254 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: He's got a really good conversation with Justin Simmons on 255 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 1: the DMVR podcast this week, but also comparison is to 256 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: the twenty fifteen team. 257 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 3: Get to that coming up next. 258 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: Benny Fowler joining us here on the Kway Common Spirit 259 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:33,079 Speaker 1: Health Hotline. 260 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 3: So, Benny, how are you, man? 261 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 6: What's up, my friend? 262 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 3: How are you doing? Fantastic? I appreciate you giving us 263 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 3: a few minutes. 264 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 1: By the way, I really loved your conversation this week 265 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: with Justin Simmons, and then of course you do a 266 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: wonderful job with our own Dave Logan every single week 267 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: on your show on DMVR. 268 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 2: Man. 269 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 3: Really good stuff this week. 270 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 6: I appreciate it, man, justin the natural. It was good 271 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 6: to just have a conversation. 272 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 7: With him and dive more. 273 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,040 Speaker 2: You know, Dave and I are always offensive guys and 274 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 2: always talking about. 275 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 6: The quarterback and receivers and catching the ball. 276 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 7: But it was good to just get an understanding from 277 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 7: Justin about this defense because he's played in this defense, 278 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 7: he's played under Sean and just it was great. 279 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 2: I thought he did a great job. 280 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 3: No doubt about it. I wanted to ask you. 281 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 1: I was thinking about this in terms of we get 282 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: these comps back to the twenty fifteen team, and of 283 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: course there's some similarities in that belief within the locker room, 284 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 1: I guess right. And the ability to close games and 285 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: different people showing up and finding ways to close out 286 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: of the season. Inconsistent offensive play, elite defense, those kinds 287 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: of things. I want to know from somebody that was 288 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 1: in that room, though. Is that something you guys talked about, 289 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 1: like from a culture standpoint or was just something that 290 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: you kind of had and you sort of believed in 291 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: and we're maybe seeing a little bit of that right now, you. 292 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,199 Speaker 6: Know, Ryan, that's a really good question. I'd be lying 293 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 6: if I'd say I. 294 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 7: Said I knew because I was so young in my career. 295 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 7: That was only my second year in the league. 296 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 2: So I kind of thought that going into every game. 297 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 2: Any game that you have Peyton Manning as a quarterback, 298 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,599 Speaker 2: you believe. And then Peyton goes down. 299 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 6: We have Rock step in. 300 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 7: But the talent was so elite around him that I 301 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 7: didn't really think anything of it. 302 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 2: I was so processed driven during. 303 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 6: That time because all I cared about was really my 304 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 6: assignment and. 305 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 7: Not messing up to play and doing what I had 306 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 7: to do on special teams. 307 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 2: I knew the team was special, but you know it was. 308 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 7: It would be if I can't say that I had 309 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 7: a real understanding of what was actually going on. My 310 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 7: first year we were twelve and four, and then we 311 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 7: ended up going twelve and four my second year and ended. 312 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 2: Up winning it all. 313 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 6: So it was more so of just really an understanding. 314 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 2: Of I just knew I was playing with really really 315 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 2: good players, like you know, and to Leave and TJ. 316 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 2: Ward and Darian Stewart and Bradley Roby was a first 317 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 2: round pick. 318 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 7: And then you have like Tamerius and Emmanuel and you know, 319 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 7: at this time we had already traded we had traded 320 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 7: for Burnon Davis, So you just there were all pros, 321 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 7: regardless if Peyton was on the field or not. 322 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 6: So I just knew that we were really talented. 323 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 2: In the defense was extremely great. 324 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a lot of parallels between that Super Bowl 325 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 4: team and the roster as we see it now. And 326 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 4: for me, the defense is doing a lot of heavy lifting, 327 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 4: but we're seeing the offense slowly and gradually starting. 328 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 5: To come along. 329 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 4: And Ryan, I was talking before you joined us, and 330 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 4: the question became, well, the Broncos added a wide receiver, 331 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 4: why did they not add a running back? 332 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 5: Do you think that the Broncos are okay. 333 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 4: At the running back position, and would you think about 334 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 4: the Broncos adding a running back. 335 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 6: Well, I thought the Broncos did try to add. 336 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 2: The running back that end up choosing the Chiefs, so 337 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 2: I know they did try to add them. 338 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 7: You know, I would try to add a running back, 339 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 7: but I. 340 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 2: Think Sean now is going to go and lean heavy 341 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 2: on the graded screen. 342 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 6: Game by the Broncos. 343 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 7: Broncos Country, but they you know, they're going to lean 344 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 7: on the short quick passes. 345 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 6: I think JK. 346 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 7: Dobbins being out will now help him really utilize Evan 347 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 7: Ingram in the short passing game and become that target 348 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 7: right there. I think adding Elijah Moore was more so 349 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 7: for depths and you know, you saw Marvin Miss a 350 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 7: couple of games and how that was just a huge 351 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 7: detriment to the Broncos offense in terms of the return 352 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 7: game and then also the gadget game. 353 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 2: So adding him just you know, as you know, insurance 354 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 2: to the offenses. 355 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 7: I think the thinking there, But yet, maybe there is 356 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 7: a running back out there that can just you know, 357 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 7: be a bruiser or you know, short yarded situations. I 358 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 7: would think they would add that maybe in the. 359 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 2: Next week or so. You want to make sure that 360 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 2: they get up to speed in terms of the playbook. 361 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 6: And whatever their packages are. 362 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 2: But I think Sean is. 363 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 7: Really comfortable with the roster going forward and JK being 364 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 7: out is bad. But you saw that Evan Ingram picked 365 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 7: up tremendously in this last game. 366 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, how about your guy Ingram? 367 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: He looked really good out there and I'd like to 368 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: see a little bit more from him, so very quickly 369 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 1: on that, and I do want to get back to 370 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: sort of the parallels. 371 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 3: But Elijah Moore. 372 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 1: In your opinion, I know he's coming into this very late, 373 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: so whatever impact he might have might be months or 374 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,120 Speaker 1: whatnot months but weeks from now. 375 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 3: Do you think that's bad news for anybody? 376 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: And I'm not trying to create controversy where it's not warranted. 377 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: Is that bad news for any receiver that's currently starting. 378 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 7: Nope, I don't think it's bad news for anybody. I 379 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 7: think this is more of a depth option, and yeah, 380 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 7: I don't think he's coming in to replace anybody. I 381 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 7: think this is more okay, we need if something were to. 382 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 6: Happen to Marvin, who is our backup returner. 383 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 2: Now that where we need explosive. We need an explosive in. 384 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 7: The return game, or who's our gadget guy in the 385 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 7: jet sweeps if something were to happen to Marvin. 386 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 6: I think this receiving core is has been solid. 387 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 2: And will continue to be solid throughout the rest. 388 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 6: Of the season and into the postseason. But I think 389 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 6: it's just the he's the only person now that you've. 390 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 7: Added to the roster that has the Maru Men's body type. 391 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 3: We're joined by Betty Fowler. 392 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: I want to go back to the question I kind 393 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: of brought you in here for at the beginning, because 394 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 1: I remember during that twenty fifteen season there was there's. 395 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 3: A lot of doubts. 396 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: There's a lot of doubt that you guys could continue 397 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: to win the way you were. And I don't know 398 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 1: if you guys heard any of that outside of the 399 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: building or even talked about it inside the building, but 400 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 1: that was the discussion. So that for me is like 401 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: one of those like, well, they can't keep doing it, 402 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: yet they keep doing it. Can the Broncos, as constituted 403 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,400 Speaker 1: with what they have right now, continue this into the postseason? 404 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 1: Is this a formula kind of like what you guys had. 405 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 1: Is this a formula for success even in the postseason? 406 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it is a. 407 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,160 Speaker 6: Formula for success in the postseason. I think you know, 408 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 6: when the postseason came around for us, you know, Peyton 409 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:50,880 Speaker 6: ends up coming back. 410 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 7: And you know what he was able to do with 411 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 7: his mind at the line of scrimmage. You know, we 412 00:18:55,720 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 7: scored some points against the Steelers and the page it's 413 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 7: and you know, defense obviously did their thing against Carolina, 414 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 7: but Peyton was just he got us into the right 415 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 7: play and you know, kept us into positive plays. 416 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 6: I think the Broncos can win with this. 417 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 2: I think the offense did a tremendous. 418 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 6: Job last weekend in you. 419 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 7: Know, scoring twenty twenty seven points or and and moving 420 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:21,400 Speaker 7: the ball. 421 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 2: I thought they did a better job against Kansas City. 422 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 6: So yeah, they're winning close games. 423 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,679 Speaker 2: But I think the offense is getting ready to hit 424 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 2: their stride and will continue to get better. 425 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 7: As long as they continue to hit that intermediate passing game, 426 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 7: I think there's I think they can win like this. 427 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 4: You think right now, where where their offense is currently 428 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 4: constructed from a scheme standpoint, the Broncos are going to 429 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 4: hit that stride. But for me, I think there's there's 430 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 4: more to this offense because the players and one in 431 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 4: particular Marvin ma'am that I don't believe is being utilized 432 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 4: as much as he should in the way that he 433 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 4: can based on his skill set. 434 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 5: Are you of the. 435 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 4: Frame of mind that Marvin Mahams and the team lack 436 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 4: of utilization of him. 437 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 5: Is that okay? Or you want to see more? 438 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 7: I'd like to see more, because I mean, he's just 439 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 7: so explosive, Like you said. 440 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 2: Nick, I mean, he just you know, there's. 441 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 7: Nobody in the receiver room with his skill set. So 442 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 7: I would like to see more. But what is that 443 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 7: every time I say that, what does that look like? 444 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 7: And who is that taking targets away from? 445 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 6: You know, Cortland I think deserves more targets as well. 446 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 2: Evan does, and you saw what he was able to do. 447 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 7: Troy Franklin does so, and then Pat Bryan is as 448 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 7: of late as coming on and becoming one. 449 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:40,360 Speaker 2: Of Bose's favorite targets. 450 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 6: So I think, where does it really come into play 451 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 6: and how does. 452 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,120 Speaker 2: He get more targets? Maybe it is what. 453 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 7: Goes back to what we saw later on in the 454 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 7: year last year, what he does get in the backfield 455 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 7: a little bit, and he does get some handoffs or 456 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 7: some carries or some pitches so and he gets some carries. 457 00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 6: So maybe that's the way, but you know, right now, 458 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 6: it's just they. 459 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 7: Got a lot of weapons that they're trying to get 460 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 7: the ball to and you know where does that come 461 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 7: into play? 462 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 6: And also I think the more the Broncos can sustain. 463 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 2: Drive, the more opportunities he'll have to get the. 464 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 3: Ball, no doubt. 465 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: Last one I have where you always appreciate the time. Man, 466 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 1: I just want to get your sense. I asked Dave 467 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: and Nick this earlier, like what kind of Raiders team 468 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: are the Broncos going to be facing? They officially were 469 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: eliminated from playoff contention. Again it's to and ten. That 470 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: doesn't really surprise anybody, but you know, you got maybe 471 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,159 Speaker 1: Max Crosby looks like he was not practicing today. It's 472 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 1: possibility that he's a little bit ify for this game. 473 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: Sometimes it's division games, you have to play spoiler. But 474 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,199 Speaker 1: when things have been this bad, you wonder if if 475 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: the Broncos are really actually going to see any kind 476 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: of desperation from this Raiders team, or maybe they show 477 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: up and they're just kind of like, man, this season 478 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: is brutal. 479 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 3: We're kind of done with it. 480 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 7: You'll see desperation in the first quarter, first or first 481 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 7: half of the first quarter, in the first couple of drives. 482 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 7: You know, when I was playing in New York, we. 483 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 2: Were playing on some pretty bad teams. 484 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 7: And I remember we played Chicago the year that they 485 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 7: got them. I don't know if there was the number 486 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 7: one seed, but they went twelve and. 487 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 2: Four and they had that home playoff game. 488 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 6: But I was at the Giants and. 489 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 2: We beat them. We beat them in New York, and 490 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 2: that was a really good Chicago team. You know, Alan 491 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 2: Robinson pro bowler that year, and Mits Trubisky was. 492 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 7: Playing really well at that time, and they had that 493 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,360 Speaker 7: incredible defense and we beat them. But we did trick 494 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 7: plays and reverse passes, and I think, you know, if 495 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 7: the game is somewhat close in that first quarter, you 496 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 7: will see a desperate team out of the Raiders, and 497 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 7: they would love to spoil the Broncos, especially, you know, beating. 498 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:47,479 Speaker 2: Them with the division game and then also messing up 499 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 2: the chances that the number one seed overall. So the 500 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 2: Raiders would love to do that. 501 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 7: But I think if it doesn't happen in the first quarter, 502 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 7: then you know, these guys already had their cars shift 503 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 7: home and have already planned their vacations. 504 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 2: To Chicago or wherever it may be. You know, I've 505 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 2: been in that situation before. Nick. 506 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 6: I don't know if you have, but you know I 507 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 6: play my vacation for right. 508 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 7: At the week after the season was over, when you 509 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,360 Speaker 7: know you're not making it to the playoffs. 510 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 2: Right. 511 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 4: Well, no, boy, no, I've never been in that situation. 512 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 5: And the reason I say. 513 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 6: That lucky for you. 514 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I got a lot of that plan for the 515 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,160 Speaker 4: Denver Broncos, but really quickly since you played the wide 516 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 4: receiver position. And I've been going back and forth with 517 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 4: Commander's fans all along, but some on two videos I 518 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 4: put up, let's go through the whole idea of pick 519 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 4: plays right because there's a nuance that comes along with 520 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 4: it in the ability to run it the right way. 521 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 4: But from what I saw this past game with the Broncos, 522 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 4: Diego Samuels and Trelan Burts, they were not running routes. 523 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 4: They actually ran that Tayleanohafunga on that last two point play. 524 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 5: Break it down. 525 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 4: You know, for our listeners, what's a good pick and 526 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 4: rub play? 527 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 5: What isn't? 528 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 7: So you're talking about that last two playing version that 529 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 7: you know did the swat. I mean, I thought it 530 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,439 Speaker 7: was an incredible play. I think you know, we were 531 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 7: doing I was doing a watch along and knew that 532 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 7: they were going to do the running back high just 533 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 7: based off of the motion all the way from the 534 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:13,919 Speaker 7: wide side of. 535 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 6: The field to you know, the short side. 536 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 7: Of the field, and then it was basically a mess 537 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,360 Speaker 7: concept with the running back sneaking out. 538 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:20,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. 539 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 7: I mean, if it's it depends on who they were 540 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 7: trying to pick. But you can pick that guy at 541 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 7: the line of scrimmage who's trying to. 542 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:34,120 Speaker 2: Guard the running back. Yeah, I mean, I'm I'm all 543 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 2: for pick plays. You know, we had a lot of them. 544 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 6: We had our our college series playing with Peyton where we. 545 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 7: Would run run pick plays. And you know, your third, one, third, 546 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 7: and two has got to have the situations where we 547 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 7: would run pick plays. So yeah, I'm very familiar with 548 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 7: with them. 549 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 2: I'm all for it. 550 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, of course, of course, receiver. 551 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 4: That's why I asked the question, because you're a wide receiver, 552 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 4: of course, and there's no such thing as a legal 553 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 4: pick correct. 554 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 7: No, they're in the in the NFL, Yeah, there is. 555 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 7: You know, I think some of these guys I think. 556 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,360 Speaker 7: I think this year Troy Franklin got. 557 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 2: Called for where he didn't really run the route. 558 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 7: You got to make it look like a route. But 559 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 7: I'm all for the pick plays and getting people open. 560 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:21,959 Speaker 2: Even when you were running. 561 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 6: There are sometimes where you can just run a simple 562 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 6: drive concept with it, which you. 563 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 7: Know, for the listeners out there, which is a dry, 564 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 7: which is a drive route, is a shallow. 565 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 2: And then you have the basic. 566 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,639 Speaker 7: But if you know you're in a stack formation and 567 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 7: you got man a man, and I'm on the point 568 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 7: and I'm running the basic, I used to pick for 569 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 7: a DT and E all the time and still run 570 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 7: my base route there. 571 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:41,880 Speaker 2: I mean, just certain way to run routes. I'm all 572 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,919 Speaker 2: four picking uh. 573 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 6: Defenders, man, so my guys can run free. 574 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: Of course you are, hey, uh, if you were you 575 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: worried at all about your your warriors, man, that's eleven 576 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 1: eleven start man, it's not I don't. 577 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:59,439 Speaker 2: Know, man, great you'll worries not not great? Well, I 578 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 2: would say I'm not worried. I hope that they do 579 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 2: well and get. 580 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 6: Back to the playoffs. But I think you know they're 581 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 6: in this weird situation. 582 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 2: You know, Draymond's and year fourteen. 583 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 6: In year seventeen, you have a. 584 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:16,919 Speaker 2: You know, when do you bring in. 585 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 7: Somebody who you need another bona fide score next to him. 586 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 7: Jimmy Butlers is great and can slow the game down. 587 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 7: But you know this is where you miss uh Kevin 588 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:26,959 Speaker 7: durant at you know later at the end of these 589 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 7: guys career. But you know, I just I hope that 590 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 7: they're healthy and I hope that you know, Steph gets 591 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 7: back on the court. You know, the best entertainer in 592 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:36,360 Speaker 7: all the sports. 593 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 3: But what's entertainer? 594 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 7: I would say, I guess entertainer's wrong word. Showman, yeah, 595 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 7: because I mean, don't get me wrong, Jokis is the 596 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,119 Speaker 7: best player in the NBA by far right now, but 597 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 7: you know Steph curR is more. 598 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 2: Entertaining than yoah, okay, right, that's true. You know that's true. 599 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,639 Speaker 1: All right, Well, hey listen, man, I you know, it 600 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: would be weird in a postseason runs to not have 601 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,120 Speaker 1: the Golden State Warriors involved. But here they are at 602 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 1: the eighth seed right now, looking up at a lot 603 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 1: of very good teams in. 604 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 3: Front of them. 605 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: So I mean, I don't know if Phoenix will be 606 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: there in the end, and that one I can see 607 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: kind of falling off. 608 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 2: But boy, okay, what's. 609 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 6: Your thoughts on okay seed? 610 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 7: Like I just have a chance. Okay, See, looks like 611 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 7: they're they're about to break the Warriors records. 612 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:28,120 Speaker 1: They're a wagon, I don't and they take they take 613 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 1: the regular season so seriously. Like that's the thing about 614 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 1: them is like they they plan on if they can 615 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: setting records, Like do you guys realize they are a 616 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,880 Speaker 1: plus fifteen point three and point differential right now? 617 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 3: Like they are blowing everybody out and can. 618 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 4: Take this in consideration as well, they played a lot 619 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,439 Speaker 4: of these games and they haven't been really fully healthy. 620 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: I don't mean the second best player, yes, on the 621 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: field or on the court. That's that's mind boggling. And 622 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 1: here they are just it is crazy. Yeah, no, I 623 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 1: mean you're right. The Nuggets have their own issues, including 624 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: winning at home. They lost four straight at home, which 625 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: is weird. But yeah, I'm just like everybody's living in 626 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 1: Oklahoma City's world. I mean, do you have do you 627 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 1: have any belief in anybody else to go toe to 628 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:13,879 Speaker 1: toe with this team? 629 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 7: No? 630 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 2: Not right now. 631 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 7: They're just younger, they have more camaraderie, they have a 632 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 7: better culture than mostly everybody right now. And I went 633 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 7: to the Oklahoma City game Oklahoma City Warriors game in 634 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 7: Oklahoma City. 635 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 6: And talking with Draymond after, I was. 636 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:37,719 Speaker 7: Like just acting him his thoughts and he was like, 637 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 7: it's crazy being on the other end of it now 638 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 7: because he's like, this is what we used to do 639 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 7: to people, right and now it's like he's like, it's 640 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 7: just ways of talented people. 641 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 2: They enjoy playing with each other, they enjoy being. 642 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 7: Teammates, and they're really good, and they're younger than everybody, 643 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 7: which means they can just they can play at any pace, 644 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 7: and if they play at a speed up pace. 645 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 6: There are not many teams that are young to. 646 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 2: Just keep up with them. 647 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 6: And he was like, it's just he's like, it's funny. 648 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 2: To be on the other end of it now because 649 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 2: that's exactly what they used. 650 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 5: To do to people. 651 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 1: They are, I meani by far the best defense right 652 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: and we know that they're only giving up one hundred 653 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: and seven points per game. There isn't a single team 654 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 1: in the entire NBA that is even close to that. 655 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 1: In fact, there'sn't even a single team that's under it's 656 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: one hundred and ten. I think the next closesstem I'm 657 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: looking at is the Houston Rockets at one ten point three, 658 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 1: but that. 659 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 3: I mean, they're just. 660 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: Again, I just don't see a lot of flaws. But again, 661 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: that's why we played the game. Then I gets took 662 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: them to seven last year. Hopefully they gave an opportunity 663 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 1: to do that again. Always great, Benny, you're the best. 664 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: We really appreciate it, man. 665 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 2: Ryan Nick. Great to talk to you, guys. 666 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 5: I appreciated Benny all right. 667 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: Anny Fower got the final pass from Peyton Manning. I 668 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: just was thinking about it in terms of the comparisons, 669 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,719 Speaker 1: right with the twenty fifteen team, and it's always different rosters, 670 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: it's different everything. The compare really stop at just hey, 671 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 1: you finding creative ways to win games, and there seems 672 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,239 Speaker 1: to be a belief within the building like that's really it. 673 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 1: Because you don't have Peyton Manning a quarterback. You don't 674 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 1: have I think, maybe one of the greatest secondaries of 675 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: all time. 676 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 3: Certainly elite edge rushers. 677 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 1: I think we have really good ones here, but von 678 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 1: Miller and DeMarcus where I mean, come on, man, that's 679 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 1: an old timer for me as far as. 680 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 5: A parent, that's different. Yeah, those guys were different. 681 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 4: And that's not to slight any of the current guys 682 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 4: right now. 683 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 3: Not at all, not at all, but. 684 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 4: They're not to that level. But they have the potential 685 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 4: to get to get there. And I actually believe that 686 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 4: Nick Benito could in fact be the next version of 687 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 4: von Miller and this Broncos defense, considering that they keep 688 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 4: the defensive coordinator in Vance Joseph in the building. But 689 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 4: everything is shaping up, so it looks similar to what 690 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 4: it looked like almost ten years ago, right Because here's 691 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 4: something and I talked to way Films about this, is 692 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 4: that Vance Joseph is now in a position that he 693 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 4: was once in. And what that means is that Wade 694 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 4: was once a head coach here, didn't work out, he left, 695 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 4: came back as a defensive coordinator. 696 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 5: Vance was a head. 697 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 4: Coach here, didn't work out, come back here as. 698 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 5: A defensive coordinator. Now you have one of the. 699 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 4: Top defensive units, as though Wade had back in twenty fifteen, 700 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 4: Vance has now and they're in the same similar type 701 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 4: of position, albeit a younger quarterback doesn't really have the. 702 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 5: Health issues that Peyton had. 703 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 4: But once again, the team is being led by the 704 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 4: defensive side of the ball and was standing in front 705 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 4: of them, a number one seed and a trip to 706 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 4: Levi Stadium in San Francisco. 707 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 1: You don't have this game, though, Man, how about that 708 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 1: says a big deal. But you got to have this game, 709 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 1: this game against the Raiders. It is remarkably important, and 710 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 1: we knew it was important. I mean, just to continue 711 00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 1: to stack wins. But in common opponents, the Raiders actually 712 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 1: beat the Patriots in Week one of the season. So 713 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 1: from a common opponent's standpoint, this is a massive game 714 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: because then you could go six to zero in common 715 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 1: opponents if you get this this game on Sunday, and 716 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: then you'll own that tiebreaker well the Patriots, just in 717 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 1: case you have the same record. 718 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 4: Well, I guess it's safe to say that from here 719 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 4: and out, every game chasing the Patriots is a must win. 720 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 3: In a lot of ways, it is. 721 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 1: And again, it's not to say that you can't lose 722 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: a game, because I'm not. 723 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 3: It's I'm sorry, Well, you don't want to lose a game. 724 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: And I know that there's a lot of hot takes 725 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 1: out there, like, oh, shoot, the Broncos lose a game 726 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: in order to have a reality check for the postseason run. 727 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't even think you. 728 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 4: Need that would suggest that, well, you know it, I'm 729 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 4: not even out I'm asking you. I don't know who 730 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 4: would say something like that, who would put their lips together. 731 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 3: Point of it is, they don't need that. 732 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: But if you are going to, technically speaking, it would 733 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: probably of the the NFC game you're playing against the 734 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 1: Packers coming up here in a little bit, we have 735 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 1: one game that you probably could afford to. And I 736 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 1: say that with their quotes because it's interconference. The Patriots, meanwhile, 737 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: they have all AFC games remaining. 738 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 4: And they have an easier pad, are like they do. 739 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 4: Two of their remaining opponents are below five hundred, so 740 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 4: that's the easier pad. So the idea for the Broncos 741 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 4: is really simple, go out there and win every single game, 742 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 4: because if the idea. 743 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 5: Is to get the number one seed, that's what you're 744 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 5: planning for. 745 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 4: We're gonna win all of these games so we not 746 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 4: only get the number one seed, we're now hosting throughout 747 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 4: the playoffs and we get a chance to sit home 748 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 4: rust up while everyone else is playing. That's incentive enough. 749 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 4: This whole idea, Oh lose the game for what purpose? 750 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 4: For what I don't understand. 751 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 3: That you are. That's great. 752 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 2: Good. 753 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 5: Who you gotta tell me who these idiots are? 754 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 3: Five six six nights. 755 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 1: Zeros are koae comisper To health text line. We got 756 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 1: the interview with Manny Fouler up at ko color dot com. 757 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: We'll write back on ka
