00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 3: games and games and games and games to talk about.

7
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, we have a great weekend coming up of football,

8
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:22,600
Speaker 1: and this has been a fun weekend. Move the Sticks

9
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 1: really kind of our first full in season week so

10
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 1: we got a chance to you know, have Baldi on Monday,

11
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,160
Speaker 1: which was a lot of fun. We had the PPU

12
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: ret with us to do our recap of the rookie draft,

13
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 1: a new rookie draft for the upcoming week. We have

14
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,239
Speaker 1: these Thursday episodes where we're able to bring in a

15
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 1: good buddy. This time it was Mayock who came on.

16
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: Did a great job. Never know where the conversation is

17
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,479
Speaker 1: going to take you, but it's just fun to kind

18
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: of freestyle with Mike. And then now we get a

19
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:52,599
Speaker 1: chance to look at some of these games that are

20
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 1: coming up this weekend.

21
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, just a lot of games. And you know how

22
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 2: this is DJ.

23
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 3: It takes a while three or four games before you

24
00:00:59,920 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 3: know what your team really is. And so we're still

25
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 3: in the discovery stages of the season. Even though there's

26
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 3: some people that are already hitting the red button. The

27
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 3: overreaction thing is in full effect pandemic. That's that's very fair.

28
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 3: We dug into the Philly case game a little bit

29
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 3: with Mike. I want to get some of these other

30
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 3: interesting games that we have coming up this weekend. Uh,

31
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 3: let's start first of all here Chicago Detroit. One of

32
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 3: these team is going to be owing to buck. I

33
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 3: don't I don't like the generic cheese ball. Who needs

34
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 3: it more?

35
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: Who can? You know, nobody wants to be owing to

36
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: The numbers are not good if you start out ohing too.

37
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 1: But there's a I almost felt a little edgings coming

38
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 1: out of Detroit, like, Hey, this is this has to

39
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 1: have to win, gotta have it type game.

40
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think is more critical for Detroit given the change.

41
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 3: This is a team that was looking right and high

42
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 3: last year, a team that many expected to be a

43
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 3: Super Bowl team and come back and be a Super

44
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 3: Bowl contendent this year, even though they change coordinators. You

45
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 3: didn't expect it to be a drop off. Man, it

46
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 3: heats up in Detroit if they don't get this win

47
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 3: because now you talk about going from what they were

48
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 3: season to go to Owen, two new coordinators, a lot

49
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 3: of conversation we now.

50
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 2: One listen to sport Stark Radio if they follow up

51
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 2: on the short.

52
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: None of this, I think on the Chicago side of things,

53
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: uh man, I know everybody's like, you had to finish better.

54
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: Started well last week, you got to finish better. I

55
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 1: think the start in this one's huge because Detroit, you're

56
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: going to get their best shot coming right out the

57
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,239
Speaker 1: gate here. This is a team coming off tough loss.

58
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: Expectations sky high for this team. They're going to want

59
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 1: to come out and establish a physicality in this game.

60
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: I think that's what they're going to fall back on

61
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 1: is let's get back to being a real, real physical group.

62
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 1: I think that's Dan Campbell's identity as a coach. So

63
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: to me, it's a Chicago you better be ready and

64
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: strap on that chin strap nice and is tight early

65
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 1: on this game because they're going to come out, try

66
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: and run it down your throats and then offensively, hey

67
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,519
Speaker 1: to play smart protect the football early in this ball

68
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: game because I think you're going to get a pretty

69
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,639
Speaker 1: big punch from Detroit coming out the gate.

70
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you can get a huge funch.

71
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 3: And I think what's interesting is the conversation and that

72
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 3: conversation about Hayley Williams and Ben Johnson and does that

73
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 3: force both of those guys to get out of character

74
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 3: when it comes to putting in the game plan, sticking

75
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 3: with the game plan and those things. We know from

76
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 3: an emotional standpoint, Detroit is gonna be ready for anything

77
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 3: and everything, and they're gonna throw a lot at them.

78
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 3: How quickly can Kaylen Williams settle down? What kind of

79
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 3: answers does Ben Johnson have on tap to settle the

80
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 3: young quarterback down? Those are the things that I have

81
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:26,359
Speaker 3: my eye on when to see this matchup.

82
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's gonna be a very very physical game.

83
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: How about the game you're going to be at Jacksonville Cincinnati?

84
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, interesting game, DJ, And it's interesting because Cincinnati didn't

85
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 3: play well against Cleveland, but it got the dub offensive leeve.

86
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 2: They struggled more than they.

87
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 3: Normally do when you have Joe Burrow on te HI

88
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 3: against Jamar Chase and look, man, they got so many

89
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 3: pass catches already to keep up with all of them.

90
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 3: But you know, to score seventeen points. You didn't have

91
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 3: a lot of yards. This is one where they are

92
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 3: backed into the corner. They're gonna come out slinging it.

93
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 3: To counter that, Travis Hunter is likely to play more

94
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 3: snaps on defense and a zone based these weekend break

95
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 3: and drive and make plays on the ball and all

96
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 3: that is our perfect fit form. I just don't know

97
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 3: this team is going to be able to play balance

98
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 3: enough to make it where it look it can be

99
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 3: an even Stephen game going to the fourth quarter. That's

100
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 3: from the Jazz perspective. And if you're the Bengals man,

101
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 3: you want to cook with grease right out the gate.

102
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 3: You want this offense to heat it because remember they

103
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 3: have not been a fast, starunning team in the early

104
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 3: months of the season. Right now they're trending to being

105
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 3: more of what they've been as opposed to doing something different.

106
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was kind of a stinker offensively, but they

107
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 1: still found a way to win against the Cleveland Browns.

108
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 1: I don't think they can do that against Jacksonville. They've

109
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: got to be better on that side of the ball.

110
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: Pass rush wise. What have you seen from Jacksonville so far?

111
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 3: I mean, look, they're trying to have an effort but

112
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 3: I mean going against the Panthers is one thing is

113
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 3: completely different. Going against the Bengals and having to deal

114
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 3: with them only the quick rhythm nature of Joe Burrow

115
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 3: but Lynda Brown on one edge and those things. I'll

116
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 3: say this about the Jacks, Josh Ains, Allen Tragon Walker.

117
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 3: They then when it comes to the pass rush, we've

118
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 3: seen them can buy for twenty five twenty six as

119
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 3: they have to be at that number. I mean, they

120
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 3: got to get on the board early because the weapons

121
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 3: that the Bengals have, you have no shot of defending them.

122
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 3: If you don't somehow get to the quarterback and make

123
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 3: him uncomfortable. Those wide receivers chasing Higgins, they'll just make

124
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 3: you pay for leaving them isolated one on one matchups.

125
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm looking forward to this game and I think

126
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a really, really good game. The one

127
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be at is the Monday Night er in Vegas.

128
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 1: That is, the Chargers and the Raiders as they square off,

129
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 1: both coming off big wins, and Gino played great. You know,

130
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 1: Gino has spent time with the Chargers, you know, I

131
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: feel like the organization knows him well and he's He's

132
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,359
Speaker 1: just been a real steady, eddy consistent player since he

133
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 1: became a starter up there in Seattle. On the job

134
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: he's done and looked great with Chip Kelly Week one.

135
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 1: They didn't really get Genti super loose in that game,

136
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:57,279
Speaker 1: had some nice runs physical, So I'm excited to see

137
00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: that offense up close and in person. And then on

138
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 1: the other side of it. You know, Joe Alt's first

139
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: game was against Max Crosby. That was on the other side.

140
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 1: So now Joe Alt to me, looks even better and

141
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 1: more comfortable on the left side. So we'll see if

142
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: this Charger offensive line continues to play at the level

143
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: which they played justin Herbert he was in attack mode. Buck.

144
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: They have a total different receiving core than what they've

145
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 1: had previously, and it's it's kind of fun. It's fun

146
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: to watch when you get a lot of options and

147
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: they can't just take away Ladi McConkie and then you're

148
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: kind of bite your nails. And Quentin Johnston for the

149
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,559
Speaker 1: grief he's taken for, you know, some of the drops

150
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 1: during his career, he had what eight or nine touchdowns

151
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 1: last year, had two touchdowns Week one this year. I

152
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 1: wouldn't be shocked if with the coverage he's going to

153
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 1: get with Keenan Allen out there and with Ladd McConkie,

154
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: if you look it up at the end of the

155
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: year he's got fourteen touchdowns, it wouldn't surprise me at all.

156
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:47,919
Speaker 2: Now, it wouldn't surprise me. And this is what we

157
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 2: always talked about.

158
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 3: The league is a system lead for eighty to eighty

159
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 3: five percent of the players that are in it, and

160
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 3: being in a system and being in a role that

161
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 3: kind of fits your skill sets allows you to play

162
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 3: at a high level. It has taken a few years

163
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 3: for the Charges to figure out what Johnson should be,

164
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 3: but it's very very clear where he is on the

165
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 3: predicting order, how they utilize him, that that unlocks his

166
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 3: superpowers and so terrific number three receiver. Wherever they use

167
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 3: him higher they continue to use him. He gives you

168
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 3: that come from the norm.

169
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 2: Man.

170
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 3: I got a really good player at really good playmaker

171
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 3: that can make some things happen if he's locked in

172
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 3: and focus.

173
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, anytime you get Derwin James dayon Henley

174
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: rock Bowers like that little triangle of three athletes. I'm

175
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: looking forward to see that Hopefully brock Bowers is healthy

176
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 1: and rare to go and we see hit the best

177
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 1: of what he brings, because that's going to be a

178
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: really really fun matchup. All right, let's get to another

179
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: game here, Denver and Indy again, two teams coming off

180
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: big wins.

181
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 2: Man, this is a good one. Two teams coming off

182
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 2: big wins. I'm gonna take the Denver side, and the

183
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 2: Denver side that.

184
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 3: I want to lean into is the defense, and the

185
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 3: defense continue to be lights out vance Joseph has done

186
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 3: a terrific job of taking a defense that once gave

187
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 3: up seventy cutting down having him playing as physical and feisty.

188
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 3: The other thing is this defense can win it on

189
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 3: his own, but they're gonna need to get contributions, more

190
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 3: contributions from the offense. Camp Bo Nicks get this team

191
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 3: up and going. Can they discover the running game. Can

192
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 3: they find ways to control the game so there's not

193
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 3: so much on pressure on the defense. They have to

194
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 3: shut down averybody.

195
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: On the other side of it. You know, look at

196
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 1: Indian as well as Daniel Jones played last week. Can

197
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: he keep that rolling? I think the middle of the field,

198
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 1: I think there's some opportunities there. I don't think that

199
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 1: Tennessee cashed in on all those last week in that ballgame.

200
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: That's a really good defense, don't get me wrong. But

201
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 1: Denver just I mean, if Andy just gets the Daniel

202
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 1: Jones they saw last week, they're going to be in

203
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: this game because I don't think their defense is going

204
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: to get run over in this They are physical, They

205
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: play really really hard up there in their front seven.

206
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,719
Speaker 1: Lou and Aromo kind of a This is like a

207
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: little bit of a I would say, a retribution tour

208
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 1: season for him. I mean, he's you don't just get

209
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: label as one of the best defensive coaches for all

210
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: those years and all of a sudden you have one clunker.

211
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 1: It's like the guy, God, how to coach ball? Like,

212
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: that's not it's not the case.

213
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 2: That is not the case.

214
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 3: But that's kind of how we treat them. We don't

215
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 3: have patience, we don't have grace or empathy when guys

216
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 3: are going through it. We expect them to continue to

217
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 3: pick up whether they left off injured or not.

218
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 2: It's not the case.

219
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 3: And the thing about all of it is like just

220
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 3: trying to bounce back, trying to get yourself back on

221
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 3: track and so we'll see what this looks like.

222
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: Let's do one more. We take a break here, Giants, Cowboys.

223
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 3: Let's go to Cowboys, and let's go with Brian schat Nheimer.

224
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,319
Speaker 3: And I believe the Cowboys walked away with their game

225
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 3: versus Philly with a lot of confidence.

226
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 2: First game without Michael Parsons. They looked around, They're like, hey,

227
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 2: we're still here.

228
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 3: Maybe we can be one of the rare teams that

229
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 3: addition by subtraction works out for them when it comes

230
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,199
Speaker 3: to their playoff hopes and those things.

231
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 2: I'll say, Maddie Recluse.

232
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 3: Defense played hard, they played well, they were connected, and look,

233
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 3: you get out hit and out hustle a lot of teams.

234
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 3: And if the Cowboys buy into their brand, makes them

235
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 3: a different kind of team to face. And then with

236
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 3: the offense, Ceey Lamb, you think about Pickens and what

237
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,199
Speaker 3: they want to do with Dak Prescott. They want to

238
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 3: throw the ball all over the yard? Can they control

239
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 3: it with the passing game? To say they're running their

240
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 3: defense up for success. To me, that's why I'm looking

241
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 3: at how Brian Schottenheimer manages the game to really protect

242
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 3: the defense that he just want out there for a bunch.

243
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: Of snaps, all right. I think this is a toe

244
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,079
Speaker 1: in the water game for the Giants. I think this

245
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 1: is Jackson Dart. I think this is we're going to

246
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: give you a series, We're going to give you a

247
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: package of plays, however you want to say it. I

248
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: don't think that they're going to keep baby in the

249
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 1: corner any longer. I think they're going to let him

250
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 1: get They're going to get a little taste Jackson Dart

251
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,719
Speaker 1: in this game. Buck. And I'm just telling you if

252
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: this is my opinion, no inside information, have not talked

253
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 1: to anybody there, but this just feels to me like

254
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: if it's as ugly as it was with Russell Wilson

255
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 1: in this offense last week, I don't know when it

256
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: will be on a second quarter, third quarter. I think

257
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 1: they say, well, it's going to give just to give

258
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: the rookie a little bit, and however he does that

259
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 1: little bit, my mean, we get a little bit more.

260
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 1: That's just what it feels like to me on the

261
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 1: outside looking at So I'm intrigued to watch it to

262
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: see what that looks like for them offensively and then defensively.

263
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: Going back through that tape, I know that you know,

264
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: the production might not show it. I'm telling you, man,

265
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: when you watch Abdul Carter and you watch how they're

266
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 1: starting to get him on gos and now if they

267
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 1: can just get that spaced out, fanned out a little

268
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 1: bit more. I know Dallas offensive line played really really

269
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 1: well against Philly. They were able to get some movement there.

270
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: But man, I don't want to be I don't want

271
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 1: to be a guard with a three way go an

272
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 1: Abdul Carter in my way. I don't want any part

273
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: of that.

274
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:41,839
Speaker 2: No, you don't want any part.

275
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 3: And the Giants have to give people to smoke when

276
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 3: it comes to their defense. Their defense is problematic. With

277
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 3: three legitimate high am pass rushers at the disposal on

278
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 3: the edges and that's the larneman on the inside.

279
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 2: They can get after you in a variety of ways.

280
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 3: But I worry about their inability to put points up,

281
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 3: like how long can you keep this defense is running

282
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 3: and playing hard when they're not necessarily doing it on

283
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 3: the other end. That's a very frustrating deal that they're

284
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 3: having to kind of cope with. And so maybe you're

285
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 3: right a little toe in the water game, Little Jackson,

286
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 3: dark game to kind of keep us intrigued, to kind

287
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 3: of keep the antennas up to kind of stay to us. Oh,

288
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,439
Speaker 3: maybe they are just about when they can put the

289
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:23,959
Speaker 3: young guy in. Maybe he's gonna be there. We got

290
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:28,320
Speaker 3: to step up and do those things. No easy answer

291
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 3: when it comes to it, but you you know, and

292
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 3: I know Jackson has to get in the games.

293
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 1: So yeah, it just feels like it feels like that

294
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: might be something we see. Let's take a quick break.

295
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 1: I've got a coaching conversation I want to have with you.

296
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna catch you off guard with this one, but

297
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 1: I want to get your reaction right after this. All right, Buck,

298
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 1: I don't like hot seat talk. And we're talking about

299
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 1: colleges right here. But now you look around the country

300
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,559
Speaker 1: and you see and whispers are already out there. And

301
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: Florida Gators had a tough loss against South Florida. They've

302
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: got a brutal schedule up ahead here. So who's already

303
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: been talking about Hey, Billy Napier, what does that look like?

304
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 1: You know it's his job safe. You hear Alabama with

305
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 1: their you know, early season loss, people are already talking about, hey,

306
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: we can come up with the buyout money. For Kailin

307
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: de boor if this thing doesn't work out. So in

308
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: a year last year where there's very little movement, very

309
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 1: very few opportunities for coaching changes, looks like this year

310
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 1: some places we're going to see that. So this was

311
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: a name that came up the other day, and it's

312
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 1: someone that you've been around, and I thought, you know what,

313
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 1: I haven't asked Bucky this, So I'm just straight up,

314
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 1: you tell me, would it work or would it not work?

315
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: John Gruden as a college head coach, I think.

316
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,559
Speaker 3: He's laying the foundation for He's been on college campuses

317
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 3: more than I've ever seen him, giving pre aim talks

318
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 3: and meeting and meeting rooms. I think this is to

319
00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 3: visually help chancellors and presidents get used to the visual

320
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 3: of John Gruden leading a squad, and because the college

321
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 3: game has become more like the pro game, I absolutely

322
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 3: can see him wanting to the tires and see if

323
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 3: he can do it. Look, he coached me back in

324
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 3: ninety eight ninety nine when he was young and hip,

325
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 3: and he was kind of like the coach that was

326
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 3: celebrated as kind of being the players coach and who

327
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 3: has it all.

328
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 2: He's older now but he's still a really good coach.

329
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 3: I would love to kind of see what he's able

330
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 3: to do in the collegiate game because it's vastly different

331
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 3: than what the league was when he left.

332
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 2: It.

333
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: Is it fair to judge him off how Belichick does? Yes,

334
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 1: I mean it away, I mean only different, though, I

335
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 1: mean I don't think that they are.

336
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I only think in terms of like just

337
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 3: the acclimation period, Like how long does it take him

338
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 3: to acclimate to being a college coach as opposed to

339
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 3: our pro coach? The different things that you're dealing with,

340
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 3: different touch points where people have to come at you

341
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 3: and talk to you about certain things. How does he

342
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 3: handle that part of it? It is your show more

343
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 3: so in college, but there's still some people to answer to.

344
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 2: Does he navigate that part of it to get the

345
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 2: job to look like you need?

346
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 1: So my question, and someone who's been around him, everything

347
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 1: that I know about Gruden is just the challenge of

348
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: playing quarterback for him is because of the complexities, the verbiage,

349
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 1: all those different things, and college has become a transient sport.

350
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: So you got eighteen to twenty two year olds, you

351
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 1: got them coming and going, you got transfers coming in

352
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: all the time, you got young guys, you got to

353
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 1: get out in the field. He'd have to dumb that

354
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: down a little bit, wouldn't he.

355
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 2: I think so. But I think he. I think he's

356
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 2: willing to know.

357
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 3: I think the things that have helped him since he's

358
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 3: been out the league and the things that helped him

359
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 3: before he was out and he was back, he's deal

360
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 3: with a lot of young players. He's had to talk

361
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 3: to him and counsel them and figure out what they

362
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 3: like and what they don't like. And we've seen him

363
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 3: get frustrated. I mean even was the last year Jackson

364
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 3: Dark going and telling them to snap count and he

365
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 3: was like, he was like, oh no, that doesn't work

366
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 3: for me. But I think I think he still has

367
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 3: enough cashe the young quarterbacks and young players will want

368
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 3: to play for him. And then it's about him adapting

369
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 3: his scheme, his style or whatever to the collegiate game.

370
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 3: But in today's climbing man, there's a way for everyone

371
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 3: to be able to win and be successful.

372
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 2: I think he can figure out a.

373
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 1: Way to win. I think I think he's always been

374
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: a really, really good coach. He's been a great game planner,

375
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: a great game caller. Players who play for him almost

376
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 1: universally love him. I don't ever really hear anything bad

377
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 1: about him. Everybody loves him. And I think you mentioned

378
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: like being on college campuses and laying the groundwork. I'd

379
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: also say, like him doing stuff with Barstool. Yes, to me,

380
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: like Barstool is very is very popular with with kids

381
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: in that college age group. So he's made himself relevant

382
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: to a whole new generation by by you know, doing

383
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 1: stuff with them. And so I don't know, it seems

384
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 1: to me like it would be something he would really covet.

385
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 1: And like I don't know which job is going to

386
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 1: come open, and I don't know like where the level

387
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 1: is where you'd be comfortable taking a little bit of

388
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 1: a risk for somebody who hasn't been at the college level,

389
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 1: but you know, at least in the last halver of

390
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 1: many years. So I think, Man, I think it's an

391
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,199
Speaker 1: easy sell when recruiting. I know, you got to have

392
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 1: money now, but you go to one of these big programs,

393
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: they all have money. But it's like, man, I will

394
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:22,880
Speaker 1: get you ready. I am going to get you ready

395
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 1: for the NFL, just as Belichick's going to sell that

396
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 1: I'm getting ready for the NFL. It's just now you've

397
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: got an offensive guy. And I think the college game

398
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 1: is kind of morphed into an offensive game. Man, Like,

399
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 1: you can't score a bunch of points, you're not going

400
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: to win.

401
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 3: I mean, And there's also a fun factor in college

402
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 3: People pay.

403
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 2: They pay big money to come to games, and they

404
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 2: want to be entertained.

405
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 3: And as much as I love defense, you're not going

406
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 3: to have a lot of thirteen ten games being well attended,

407
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 3: Like people have a tendency to check out. Yeah, but look,

408
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 3: it's a fascinating discussion, is it really. I'm really curious

409
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 3: in terms of if Ruden gets to pick the team,

410
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 3: what's the team that he gravitates towards, and then in reality,

411
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 3: what are the teams that look for that type of

412
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 3: lead at that time to play called I.

413
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: Would think first and foremost he'd be able to recruit

414
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 1: a quarterback. I think you'd get quarterbacks that would want

415
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: to go play for him, be trained by him. It's

416
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: a specialty of his. The Gruden QB camp is the

417
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 1: selling point to me. You want to know what it's

418
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: like to get coached by this guy, get on YouTube.

419
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 1: You can watch a bazillion episodes of him, you know,

420
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 1: breaking down tape and talking ball with all these quarterbacks

421
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,159
Speaker 1: that you watch on Sundays. So I don't know. I

422
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,439
Speaker 1: think it'd be fun. I think it'd be fun for

423
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: the college game. I think it'd be fun for him.

424
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,199
Speaker 1: I think he'd be invigorated by it. It was just

425
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: something I wanted to approach with you because it came

426
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 1: up the other day when I was talking to somebody about,

427
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 1: you know, who's going to fill these openings, like who's

428
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,919
Speaker 1: gonna you know, what does the movement look like? And

429
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 1: that was a name that came up, and I thought

430
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 1: I got a hit buck on that one.

431
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 3: Yeah no, I mean it's a lot of movement, and

432
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 3: we're at a time where not quite silly season, but

433
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 3: it is funny to kind of play a little matchmaker

434
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 3: when you feel like to see this warming awesome repid

435
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 3: your coaches. Hopefully they able to stave it off, so

436
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 3: hoping they get better performances they stay out of the

437
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 3: lost column. But you know, like I know, the vultures

438
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:09,360
Speaker 3: are circling.

439
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, no kidding.

440
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: We had a coach. We had a coach and I

441
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 1: was with the NFL team that had a whiteboard in

442
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 1: his office and all he had was a list of

443
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: colleges and he had him color coded and it was

444
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: like blue or like green, like purple red. And I

445
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 1: was like, I came in there and I was like, well, COLI,

446
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: He's like, oh no, this is like our job board.

447
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 1: So this is red means there for sure getting fired,

448
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 1: you know, and then it goes kind of on up

449
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 1: the up the colors. But it was something that the

450
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 1: coaches kind of kept alive. But it's just a different

451
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 1: culture in the coach and the world buddies.

452
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 2: No question.

453
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: All right, that's a quick one today, looking forward to

454
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 1: some great games. We'll be back on Monday with Baldy

455
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 1: joining the show as we break this whole thing down.

456
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: I'll be coming to you from from Vegas because I'll

457
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 1: be out there for Monday night. So we will look

458
00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 1: forward to having you join us at that point in time.

459
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 1: Right here on sticks
