We have some critical games at the 6 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: end of the week, not necessarily because the start is 7 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 1: a plan, because we got a bunch of these French 8 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: players to a plan for their careers and maybe they're 9 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: opportunities to play on a roster. Who did Jacks? Got 10 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 1: week three? Where you heading Atlanta Falcons on Saturday three 11 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 1: Eastern on the road? Okay, Atlanta, that's easy trip for you. Yeah, 12 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: joint practices this week if we get the game on Saturday, 13 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: so it should be fine. Nice. I'm headed to New 14 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 1: Orleans Chargers finish up down there. Um So, by the way, 15 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,159 Speaker 1: one of the fun things the dinners you go to 16 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: when you're when you're working with these teams out on 17 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: the road. Um. The last one we always do with 18 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: the TV guys as well. Um so it'll be foults 19 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: and uh uh he's he's hilarious, man like no Eagle, 20 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: who's think about this? Dan worked with Iron Eagle and 21 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: then now he's working with his son Noah, who's an 22 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: awesome guy, really talented dude who does Clipper games as well. 23 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: But so we kind of all go out and then 24 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: we just listen to Foults tell stories, man, you can't 25 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:21,679 Speaker 1: you can't beat it. That's that's just a real moment 26 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 1: for you, growing up a charge and doing all that. 27 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: I can just tell you coming from even though I 28 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: grew up in North Carolina watching them during that time 29 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 1: with Eric or Yell and they were throwing a ball 30 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 1: all over the yard, and they had Chuck Bunsey and 31 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: they had all the wide receivers. John Jefferson was my guy. 32 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: Oh nice j. I'll go with West Chandler and West 33 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: Chandler to Charlie Joyner. Charlie Joyner was my first position 34 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 1: coach when I got to the National Football League. So 35 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: I kind of feel you in the charge. You love Yeah, 36 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: I love it anyway. So that's where we're headed today 37 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: on the show. I want to talk something we haven't 38 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: talk much about. We always talk about guys under pressure, 39 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: and we think of rookies and young players and veterans 40 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: kind of been a make or break year. Derek car 41 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: would be interesting conversation based off of comments over the 42 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: weekend from Dana Light and would leave that one. UM. 43 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: But the uh, the fact that we've got some play 44 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,399 Speaker 1: callers under some pressure this year is what I wanted 45 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: to hit on today. UM guys that maybe you're looking 46 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 1: forward to seeing how they do UM as play calls. 47 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,959 Speaker 1: Thinking an offensive play caller, defensive play callers. Some of 48 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: these guys are head coaches, UM, who I think have 49 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on them. But I thought we 50 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: could kind of just go bing bang bing right after 51 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 1: each other and kind of see who you think has 52 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on them. I guess I'll start 53 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 1: us off and I'll go to a team that was 54 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: as impressive offensively as any in football last year, and 55 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: that's the Dallas Cowboys and what they were able to 56 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: do and chuck it all over the lot. Doc had 57 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: a huge year. Um, they didn't have the team success 58 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 1: that they ultimately desired there once they got into the postseason, 59 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 1: But this was an offense that man was so dynamic 60 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: and so explosive. Now they've got to bring in some 61 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: young guys and get them up to speed on the 62 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: offensive line. They had some departures out there at the 63 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: wide receiver position, mainly a Mark Cooper that was a 64 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: big one. Um, So how are they going to kind 65 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: of make this whole thing click? And can they repeat 66 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: what they did last year with some different names while 67 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: also juggling a backfield where you've got, you know, some 68 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: faction the organization is Zeke Elliott faction. Then you've got 69 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: to Tony Pollard faction. You know what the fan base, 70 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 1: you know prefers. But that's a lot to juggle for 71 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore, who I think is the total stud But 72 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,399 Speaker 1: I do think there's a lot of pressure on him. Yeah, 73 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on him. And there's some people 74 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 1: that despite all the success, when it comes to the 75 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: numbers from the Cowboys offensive output, they would like to 76 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: see a little more dynamic offense. Like you don't see 77 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: a lot of motion and shifting, you don't see a 78 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: lot of creativity. The production is there, but it's not 79 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: one that wows people when they look at it. And so, 80 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: as Kellen Moore maybe is angling for a head coaching job, 81 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: and as Mike McCarthy is trying to keep his job 82 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: on at the helm of a team that many want 83 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: to see be a Super Bowl contender, I think the 84 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: pressure is on killing Moore, but it's also home Mike McCarthy. 85 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: So I think Kellen Moore has to continue to keep 86 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: uh this ship heading in the right direction while still 87 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: remember ring how to take care of all the pieces 88 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: of the postlet Ceedee. Lamb has to get his darm, 89 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: Schultz has to get is you gotta figure out what 90 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: to do. It is are Elliott and then Tony polit 91 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: looks ready to have a bigger role, So how does 92 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: he blend it in. That's a lot to manage on 93 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: top of making sure they don't have the situational areas 94 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: that they had last season, no doubt. All right, fire 95 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 1: away buck, give me a coordinator or a plate caller 96 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: that you think's got a lot of pressure on them 97 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: this year. Okay, let's say in the NFC East, and 98 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: let's talk about the Philadelphia Eagles, the Philadelphia Eagles band. 99 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: They're kind of the media darling right now. People are 100 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: saying that this is their year to take over the division. Well, 101 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 1: I think Jonathan Gannon is under fire because he has 102 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 1: to have his defense improved. This is a defense that 103 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: has talent, but last year they played really really soft, 104 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: A little more read and react not really up to 105 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: field and aggressive like Philadelphia defenses have been in the 106 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: past for the past thirty years. And so ken Jonathan 107 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: Gain and get this defense to play at a high level, 108 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: even though he approaches the game a little differently. This 109 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: stues there. I mean, you're seeing it house I read 110 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: it comes over. They have James Bradberry to go with 111 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: Darius Slay in the back end, uh, Nakobe Dean uh 112 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: during David's Like they have players now, it's about putting 113 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 1: them in a scheme that works through their talents so 114 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: they can dominate and show people out in the NFC. Yeah, 115 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 1: it's it's one of those fascinating things where it's you know, 116 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: not sometimes not just good enough to win. Um. You know, 117 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 1: it's like the Lakers, right, the Lakers, they're the showtime Lakers. 118 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: Like if they're grinding people out and playing that way 119 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: like the that's not really who that organization is and 120 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 1: it's not what they're about, and fans don't want to 121 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: see that either. It's kind of this is what we've 122 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: grown accustomed to it, this is our style, this is 123 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: who we are. We see it at in college football 124 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: is all. I think that's one of the the challenges 125 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: Nebraska has had, you know, and and their struggles over 126 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: the last twenty plus years is because they played a 127 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: certain brand of football forever and there was a large 128 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: group of people around the program that think that's that's 129 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 1: what it has to be. This is what we are, 130 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 1: this is who we are. It's goind of look like this, 131 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: I think to a lesser degree, the Phildelphia Eagles have 132 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: been an attacking front up the field. Go get them 133 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 1: up in the top five and sacks every year. Um. 134 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: And that's the way that they've played. And now last 135 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: year you didn't see that. Ben don't break um, you know, 136 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 1: try and limit the big plays and a lot of 137 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 1: reading up front instead of attacking. And I think people 138 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: are like, wait a second, that's not that's not who 139 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: we are. Um. So that's gonna be interesting to watch 140 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: because they've got horses up front. Now they should be uh, 141 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: they should be much better getting after the quarterback. Absolutely 142 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: should be much better getting after the quarterback. They have 143 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: to get better and doing that. I understand John again 144 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: and not want the ball to fly over to here. 145 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: I want to keep the ball in front, eliminate and 146 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: reduce the big plays. But you have to threaten and 147 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: challenge these quarterbacks. The quarterbacks are too good. They will 148 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: pick your part if you sit back and play conservatively. 149 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: I want to see if you can rats it up 150 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: a little bit. And also I think that will uh 151 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: maybe make better unit, better utilization of the talent if 152 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 1: he's a little more aggressive. All right, well, let's go 153 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: to one of his best friends. That's Brandon Stalely with 154 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 1: the Chargers, who I see each and every week. Brandon 155 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: Stalely obviously the head coach, but is in charge of 156 00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: the defense, a defense last year that was bad on 157 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,600 Speaker 1: third down, with bad against the run. Um The numbers 158 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: were brutal. So he does what anybody would want to 159 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 1: do any offseason. When you don't like what you see, 160 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: your overhaul the whole dang thing. Um, so you keep 161 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: the stalwarts there. They just resigned Derwin James. You still 162 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: got Joey Bosa. I think your trank is going to 163 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: be a stud um. They've got key pieces there. But man, 164 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: they went out and get J. C. Jackson, Khalil mack Um. 165 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: They made big time moves. Kyle Vanoy comes over to 166 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: help give them some some quality linebacker play. So they've made. 167 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: They've made uh, some big time additions to this group, Sebatian, 168 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: Joseph Day, Austin Johnson to kind of solidify that group 169 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: against the run on the inside. Now you gotta see 170 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: the results. Um, you get a chance kind of to 171 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: cater this thing to to what your scheme is and 172 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: and how you want to utilize. Guys. Okay, excuses are gone. 173 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: It's go time. Now. This group has gotta be much 174 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: better on third down. They've gotta be much better against 175 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: the run. Yeah, absolutely have to improve. They hasn't been 176 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: much better. This team looks super Bowl worthy. They look 177 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: super Bowl calib when you look at this offense. Actually, 178 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: this offense built up close to thirty points the game 179 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: each and every week because you got a big time quarterback. 180 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: You've got weapons on the outside the defensively, the pieces 181 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: are in place. You got two stud pass rushers and 182 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: Khalil mac Andjoey Bolster. You got your safety uh, signed, sealed, 183 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: delivered and ready to rock and Derwin James. You have 184 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: j C. Jackson who can cover and snuff out number 185 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,119 Speaker 1: one receivers. Other new excuses. So now it's about Brandon 186 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: Steady being able to put his scheme in place and 187 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: have the guys dominate to the level that they should dominate. 188 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: If they do that, this is a team that could 189 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: win the a f C West. Um, it'll be a challenge, 190 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,559 Speaker 1: but I think the expectations that this defense will improve 191 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: and real improve and hurry, all right, let's get a 192 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: couple more here, fire away buck. Okay, I'm gonna say 193 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: in the same division, and look, it's it's tough to 194 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 1: say that the play caller for a team that is 195 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,199 Speaker 1: won six straight division titles is under under pressure. But 196 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: Andy Reid has a little pressure that he's feeling, and 197 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 1: that pressure is due to the fact that they allowed 198 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 1: Tyrikkill to walk out the building. UM. Two outsiders, they 199 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,839 Speaker 1: would say that Tyreek Kill is a top five player 200 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: as a position. He's a big play machine. He is 201 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: someone that you have to account for. As the young 202 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: people say, he's one of one. Andy Reid willingly let 203 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 1: him go, traded him away, took the traft picks and 204 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: said that we will rebuild this offense. So now everyone 205 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: is looking at the kand C the Chiefs to see 206 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 1: how are they going to rebuild this offense without one 207 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: of the more dynamic players that we see in the 208 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: NFL game. And so for me, I think this will 209 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: need to be Andy reads best coaching jobs since he 210 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: first got to Kansas City and he was doing what 211 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: Alex Smith and really some unheralded pieces on the outside. 212 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: How he kind of moves it around and plays the 213 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 1: shield game to me is fascinating and how well he 214 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: does it will ultimately determine if the people are on 215 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: his back for moving on from Tyreek Hill. I remember, 216 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: you know when the kids were little, um and sent 217 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: him to school and sometimes you might give him. Uh, 218 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: it could be a sandwich, right, so you peanut, butter 219 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: and jelly cut the thing in half. Um, So they've 220 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: got to two things there. They got one half a sandwich, 221 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: other half. So that was the Kansas Chiefs Office. You 222 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 1: got Tyreek Hill half the sandwich. Uh, and then you've 223 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: got Travis Kelsey, Yeah, half of the sandwich. Now, I 224 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: think the Chiefs are going with the lunchable approach. They 225 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: have a lot of little compartments here. You get a 226 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:06,599 Speaker 1: little bit of this, a little bit of that, a 227 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 1: little bit of this, a little bit of that. I 228 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: don't think you know, Look, it's still gonna go through Kelsey. 229 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 1: Is the number one option, but outside of that, I 230 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: think you diversify a lot of that stuff, and I 231 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: think you know they're not gonna be better. I mean 232 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 1: you could say, I've heard some people say, you know, 233 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: now they'll just get the ball to the open man 234 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: and then they're gonna be better because they don't force 235 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: the ball. No, you have great players, you force them 236 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: the football. Everybody wants great players that they have to 237 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: force the football to um So to me, I don't 238 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: think it's gonna look exactly the same. It might not 239 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: be as dynamic, but this is the word that you 240 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: would put in bold letters. Efficiency. I think you see 241 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 1: Patyck Mahomes have one of his more efficient seasons this year, 242 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: and that's still gonna score a ton of points. Oh 243 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: they are. I think it would be different. I think 244 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: it will look differently, but I think it might be 245 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: a more effective offense because it's so balanced. I think 246 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: it's more of a ball control offense, where more nickel 247 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 1: and diming. Maybe not as many big plays as we've seen, 248 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 1: but I think that might help Pat Mahomes evolve and 249 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: grow as a quarterback. So now rather and playing so 250 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: much sand lot from the pocket, he now has to 251 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,199 Speaker 1: stay on schedule, on script, and because that you might 252 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: see a more efficient performance from this offense because he 253 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: is playing on time and on schedule. Yep, I agree 254 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: with you. I think it'll it'll all work out there. 255 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to the Chicago Bears, of all places, 256 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna go Luke getsy uh, their offensive coordinator, Bucket. 257 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: I don't know how they're gonna pull it off, man, 258 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: I don't want to be pessimistic. I like some of 259 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: the pieces. David Montgomery's are really good back. I think 260 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,199 Speaker 1: justin Fields, you know, is an extremely talented young quarterback. 261 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: I like Darnell Mooney, good player. Um, you know see 262 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: how some of these other pieces kind of come together. 263 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: But Buck, I just hadn't up front, man, is a 264 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: play call or you do do it? Now you're doing it. 265 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,199 Speaker 1: You're calling plays at the high school level. I know 266 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: we're talking about high school overs the NFL. Played in 267 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: the NFL. You've been on both sides the ball, you've coached. 268 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: When you don't have the horses up front makes your 269 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: job hard, man hard because you kind of darned if 270 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: you do. Darn if you don't, we're gonna get everybody 271 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: out and just tell Justin Fields. As a young quarterback, 272 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: he's got to see it and get rid of it. 273 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: Um are we gonna try and you know, keep the 274 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: constantly moving the pocket, move the launch points so they 275 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: can't zero in on you, or you're gonna keep everybody in. 276 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: And now we're looking at one and two man routes, 277 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 1: which is not an easy way to play the position. Yeah, 278 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 1: it's hard. It's hard of when we're just wanting two 279 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: man routes. I like the scheme that they want to 280 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: put in. We've talked about it. The Shanahan type scheme 281 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: is perfect for young quarterbacks. If you and I were 282 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 1: in the league and we're in charge, we can put 283 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: it together. That's the scheme that you want. So I 284 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: love that. I think the movement passing game, the bootleg 285 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: passing game, the misdirection play, action passes, all this stuff 286 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 1: is gonna be terrific for Fields. I just don't know 287 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: if he has enough around up front and on the outside. 288 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 1: I will say this, Darnielle Moody is gonna be man. 289 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: He is. He's a good player. I mean, he's a 290 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 1: really good player. I just don't know if they have 291 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: enough on the outside and then you talk about being upfront. 292 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: So my concern is, can get see build a protection 293 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: package to keep Justin Fields from getting smoked each and 294 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: every week, Because if you can, Fields has enough talent 295 00:12:59,920 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: to make this offense respectable. I don't want to again 296 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: this is this sounds negative. But if they keep him 297 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: upright and he trots out there seventeen times this year, 298 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: number one, I'll be pleasantly surprised and happy that we 299 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: get a chance to see Justin Field for seventeen weeks. 300 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 1: That might be a success. Take the wins and losses 301 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: out of it. They get seventeen games out of Justin 302 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,199 Speaker 1: Fields to kind of evaluate him, Um, that'd be fantastic. 303 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: But man, it's gonna be a challenge to keep trotting 304 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: him out there just based off what's in front of him. Yeah, 305 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,079 Speaker 1: that's gonna be a challenge. And so they have to 306 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: get better. They have to see how they can figure 307 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 1: it out out front. It's gonna be really important. They 308 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: moved Tevin Jenkins inside the guard and for his first 309 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 1: time playing there, he looked pretty good. But they gotta 310 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: get better. They gotta make sure that the front line 311 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: in front of Justin Fields is able to win and 312 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 1: win consistently so that Justin Fields can do his deal 313 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: from the pocket. All right, Uh, give me another one here. 314 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 1: Who do you got pe carmichaelnew on the Saints, um 315 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 1: big shoes to feel and replacing Sean Payton. I know 316 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: he was there on staff as offense coordinated. He has 317 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,679 Speaker 1: called plays at time, but this is different deal when 318 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 1: I would say the offensive wizard is no longer available 319 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 1: to help you on the sideline. So one of the 320 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: things that we loved about the Saints is how they 321 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 1: could challenge you schematically each and every week, how they 322 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: can make these adjustments and really confound to confuse defensive coordinators. Well, 323 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 1: now Sean Payton is gone. It follows the peak Carmichael. 324 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: He not only has to do that, but he has 325 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: to do it with a quarterback who can be turnover prone, 326 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: and he has to do it while also managing to 327 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: keep all of the mouths, all of the playmakers happy 328 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: on the outside. That is a tough task to manage. 329 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: To out scheme your opponent, make sure your quarterback is 330 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: playing the right way, and keep Michael Thomas and Crystal 331 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: Lobby and Jarvis Landry and Alvin Kamar all happy and satisfied. 332 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: Good luck juggling that. And so that's why he has 333 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: a ton of pressure on him because this team, this team, 334 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 1: in my estimation, should be the best team in the 335 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: NFC South. But now you've gotta get this offense to 336 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: play like because the defense is gonna be light South. 337 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: Can Pete Carmichael get this offense to play at a 338 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: high level? I like that one, UM. You know, I 339 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: was looking at some other offensive guys and there's some 340 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: intriguing names to kind of throw out there, but I 341 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: want to go back to the defensive side of the ball, 342 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: and look, look what we've seen in the preseason so far. 343 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 1: You gotta feel good about it. UM. But I always 344 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: think if you're the defensive coordinator of the Baltimore Ravens, 345 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: you got pressure on you. And Mike McDonald is a 346 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: young coach who they brought back from the University of Michigan. UM, 347 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 1: you had an established coach, uh In wink In wink Martindale. 348 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 1: You decided to move on from him, Um, And this 349 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: is a team that has been defensive dominant, don't I know. 350 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: Lamar is dynamic and exciting and as an m v 351 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: P and and there's a lot of things to feel 352 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: good about. Offensively, that identity for the Baltimore Ravens always 353 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: will be the defense. It goes back to the two 354 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: thousand Super Bowl. Um. They they they hang their hat 355 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: on that buck and they hang their hat on being fast, 356 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: um creating a lot of pressure. They love to be exotic. 357 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: It's not a standard static defense that you'll see in 358 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: some of these other places. I love what I've seen 359 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: so far in the preseason. People can say preseasons meaningless. 360 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: I know, I don't want thing. I've sipped on that 361 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: game to the night and watch the Baltimore Ravens defense. 362 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: They were flying around and they were smacking people and 363 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: it looked like the Baltimore Ravens. But I still think 364 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: whoever the coordinator is there is gonna have pressure. First 365 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: year Mike McDonald young coordinator, I think he's got some 366 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: pressure on him. Yeah, he does have some pressure on him. 367 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: Because you're right, everyone who has been the decordinator for 368 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens has found a way to get this 369 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: defense to play at a high level. The expectation when 370 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 1: it comes to Baltimore. Baltimore success is synonymous with defensive 371 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: dominance and so Mike McDonald steps into that. Now he 372 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: has some great players to work with, and he has 373 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: a scheme that was very uh intriguing and fascinating at 374 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: the collegiate level. Can he get the teaching and can 375 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 1: he get up to speed when it comes to the 376 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: pro game? Look good in preseason for the regul season 377 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: a completely different animal, no doubt. All right, give me 378 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: one more and then we'll wrap this bad boy up. Okay, 379 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: one more. Let's go to Tampa Bay. Let's go to 380 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: Byron Leftwich. And the reason we want to go there 381 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: is because there's all this uh conversation about Bruce Arians 382 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: and where they got along with Tom Brady and this 383 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 1: offense and these things. Now remove Bruce Arians and when 384 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: tom Brady comes back, it's tom Brady and Byron left 385 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 1: which And so how do you, as a play caller 386 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: continue to help an older player flourish? Now he has 387 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: his own ideas and how this game you play, and 388 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 1: you want to entrust tom Brady, But if tom Brady 389 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,719 Speaker 1: it's a rough patch, what can you do to make 390 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,199 Speaker 1: the game easy for him? We haven't seen that from 391 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 1: Tom Brady really in Tampa. But then when we do 392 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: see it, we'll see it without Bruce Arians, who has 393 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: a lot of experience calling plays, who has a lot 394 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 1: of experience as a coach in this league. Ken Bryan left, 395 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: which helped Tom Brady navigate a rough patch if the 396 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 1: offense does doesn't perform like we expected to perform because 397 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: he's always been so magnificent. Yeah, I'm also kind of curious, 398 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 1: you know, I think you kind of had the good 399 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 1: cop bad cop right you had left, which is the 400 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: former player is kind of a confidant there for Brady 401 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: and they had a great relationship. And then you had 402 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: Bruce Arians, who maybe rubbed Brady the wrong way a 403 00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 1: little bit, but would call him out publicly and kind 404 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: of be the bad copy when you're talking about the 405 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: most accomplished player in NFL history. Uh, and Brady Like, okay, 406 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 1: you mentioned that rough patch. You know, I don't think 407 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 1: Brady necessarily needs anybody to get on him like that. 408 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: But that was a presence that's gonna be gone that 409 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: they don't have anymore. So they've got to try and 410 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 1: work through those things together without kind of the good cop, 411 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: bad cop routine that worked for them over the last 412 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 1: couple of years. Yeah, And that's tough. It's tough dealing 413 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: with an older player who's accomplished, as Tom Brady is. 414 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 1: How do you have those one on one conversation because 415 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 1: you're right, good cop. Backhop is different than you move 416 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 1: the backup and by left, which has to have some 417 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: of those things. Hey, Tom, and you gotta go. You 418 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 1: gotta stick with the progression. You can't go on you own. 419 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: Does he yell out Tom Brady? Does he cut him 420 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 1: some slack or he's able to hold him accountable for 421 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: some of the missteps that he might have when he's 422 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 1: playing position. Yeah, that's definitely something to keep an eye on. 423 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: Um So, anyways, there's there's some play callers that we 424 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: think are under a lot of pressure here as we 425 00:18:54,880 --> 00:19:00,639 Speaker 1: head towards the start of the regular season. Before we 426 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,199 Speaker 1: get out of here, Buck, I do want to hit 427 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: this real quick. So we've got the the ap topme 428 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 1: out the other day. Um I just wanted top five 429 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 1: right now. You've got Alabama one, Ohio State to Georgia three, 430 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 1: Clemson four, Notre Dame five. Um So when you look 431 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: at that group right there, if you had to hang 432 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: your hat on it and say I've you know this, 433 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 1: this team will be in the playoff if you had 434 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,239 Speaker 1: to say one of those or how would you how 435 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 1: would you slot those? Maybe maybe give me two teams 436 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: of those five where you like, done deal, they'll be 437 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: in Because I got mine. I feel fantastic about it. Well, 438 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that the three that I absolutely 439 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: believe will be in will be Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State. 440 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: I have I have issues and concerns about Notre Dame. 441 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: I worry about Notre Dame being able to um to 442 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: play with the big boys like that. And I love 443 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 1: Marcus Freeman, but you have to remember this is the 444 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: first year as a full time head coach, Like this 445 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 1: is a different an animal. So you step right into 446 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: the frying pan for a team that has great expectations. 447 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 1: I think it takes you a while to kind of 448 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,919 Speaker 1: learn how to navigate that and how to learn how 449 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 1: to be a head coach, and so it won't necessarily 450 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,199 Speaker 1: be the talent. But I just worry about first year 451 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: head coach having enough experience in foresight to be able 452 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,679 Speaker 1: to handle the tough things that happened in each season, 453 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: to be able to compete with the big boys when 454 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:28,239 Speaker 1: it comes down to getting into the postseason. Playoffs. All right, 455 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go Alabama. We flabbergas that if they're 456 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: not in the playoff, this is one of the best 457 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: defenses that we'll see. I know Georgie's last year was epic. 458 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: I think this has got a chance to approach that 459 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: with big time, big time players, including two elite, elite 460 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 1: edge rushers. The best player in the country, UM in 461 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: Willia Anderson. So I think Alabama is there. Um, you know, 462 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: Ohio State. It's tempting for me, but I still think 463 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: there's some hurdles that they have on their schedule starting 464 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: with Notre Dame, and that we can say, we'll learn 465 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,239 Speaker 1: that to those two teams square off early. So right 466 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 1: away we see Ohio State and Notre Dame, figure out 467 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 1: who that's gonna You know what that looks like. That 468 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: is the that's the opener that's on the third. Um. 469 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 1: But I think Alabama's in. And I'm actually gonna say 470 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: Clemson is the other one. I think people sleeping on Clemson. 471 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: Clemson when you go back and look at them and 472 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 1: you watch the tape over the summer, their defensive front 473 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: is loaded. They lost a Georgia tend to three last year. 474 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: That that Georgia team, and I think they gosh what 475 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: they win ten games something like that, and it was 476 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: a down year. The quarterback was terrible. Quite a bad year. 477 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:30,880 Speaker 1: There's no choice. They got a big time young back 478 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: in uh In Shipley, um and and I think there's 479 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: something to that kind of I don't want to play 480 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,679 Speaker 1: a disrespect card or whatever, but they've got they've got 481 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: dudes up front. They had one blip, and a blip 482 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: for them was a ten win season. It wasn't like 483 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 1: they completely what the bed and one three games, um, 484 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: but I think I think they're gonna roll through the 485 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 1: A C. C is what they love, right is what 486 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: you love is they have like a top five team. 487 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: But to be viewed as an underdog, yeah, Like it 488 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,479 Speaker 1: gives Dabo the opportunity to just get up. And they 489 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 1: didn't do with spiel and talk about no, hey, no 490 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: one believe a little old Clemson, a little little Clemson, 491 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 1: No one things that we can win. We're not any good. 492 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 1: We're not any good anymore.
