1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:05,240
Speaker 1: Late fifteen to ten touched up suck.

2
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 2: What's up, guys, We are back with a brand new

3
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:16,600
Speaker 2: episode of Chargers Weekly. Chris Hayrey here with you as always,

4
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 2: joined by the voice of the Chargers, Matt Muddy Smith

5
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,600
Speaker 2: and Money. We've had a lot of fun this offseason.

6
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,080
Speaker 2: But why don't you set up what we just did

7
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 2: earlier this week?

8
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I had a chance to sit with Coach, and

9
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 3: Coach is the best man. He said, Look, I wish

10
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 3: you could spend more time with you, but it's a

11
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 3: hard fifteen I got some stuff to do, and then

12
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 3: you look up and it's almost forty minutes later. Because

13
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,279
Speaker 3: he he loves football, man, and if you're just talking football,

14
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 3: he's gonna talk football, and he's gonna like talking football

15
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,200
Speaker 3: and keep talking football. So it was a great conversation.

16
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 3: We did it on Monday, I believe was his window

17
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 3: that he had opened. So obviously some things if they

18
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 3: came up between Monday and today when this thing is posting, understand,

19
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 3: and you know that's kind of when we did at

20
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 3: the ted Lasso thing sort of caught fire, you know,

21
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 3: after and we were going to get into it with them,

22
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 3: but that was you know, planned for the end of

23
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 3: the interview, and at that point he's like, I really

24
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 3: got to go, but yes, please stick around. Some stuff

25
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,479
Speaker 3: to go through here with with Monday being that last

26
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 3: day of rookie mini camp that the media had availability

27
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 3: to in the pressers, so dig into a little bit

28
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 3: of that here and then we'll we'll get to our

29
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 3: interview and our it's not an interview, it's just conversation.

30
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,679
Speaker 3: You know, he's doing He's doing most of the talking.

31
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 3: We're just kind of lobbing things back and forth and

32
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 3: really enjoyed it.

33
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 4: He's just infectious.

34
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: Man.

35
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,759
Speaker 4: It's it's mid June, and you know.

36
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 2: We're talking about everything from the offensive line. I think

37
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 2: there was a seven or eight minute answer to one

38
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 2: of your questions about the offensive line, to Darwin James,

39
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 2: to Ben Herbert, to these rookies and just the work

40
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 2: that they're putting.

41
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:50,919
Speaker 4: In right now.

42
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 2: And you know, this was the last week of OTA's

43
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: where it was just rookies. The vets have left the bolt.

44
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 2: So we got to talk to coach right before he

45
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 2: got on the grass with the guys on Monday, and

46
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 2: later that day after we did the conversation with coach

47
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 2: Trey Harris, and Ronda Gaston went to the podium, and

48
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 2: those are just two of the examples of the work

49
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: and some of the stuff that they're doing to get

50
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 2: to that NFL level.

51
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 4: I thought both guys gave.

52
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 2: Really good answers at the podium about Justin Herbert and

53
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 2: then Gaston in particular, just about the work ethic and

54
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 2: everything it requires to be an NFL player, and kind

55
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 2: of the advice he got from coach Herb to get

56
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 2: there early and go through the plays by himself at

57
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 2: five in the morning.

58
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 4: These are two guys.

59
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 2: I don't know how quickly their impact is going to

60
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,119
Speaker 2: be felt during the regular season, but I cannot wait

61
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 2: for training camp in the preseason games to kind of

62
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 2: see what these guys have.

63
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think in the case Gaston, what you're alluding to.

64
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 3: If the folks haven't seen it yet, be sure to

65
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 3: check it out. If you're watching us on YouTube, it's

66
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 3: just going to be, you know, the next I don't know,

67
00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 3: two or three videos down, Gadsden. You know, much like me,

68
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 3: I was doing FM morning shows. I started in nineteen

69
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 3: ninety four working on Kevin and Bean, and I stopped

70
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 3: in two thousand and three, No, two thousand and five

71
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 3: I stopped. So twelve years of waking up at three

72
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 3: thirty in the morning, and here I am twenty years later,

73
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty five, and I still can't sleep in.

74
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 3: I just I can't. My body will not allow me

75
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 3: to sleep late. I don't set an alarm. My body

76
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 3: wakes me up. I promise this is going somewhere. My

77
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 3: body wakes me up typically now at about four, between

78
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 3: four and four thirty. And before I would just get up,

79
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 3: I'd make some coffee, I'd read the paper. Yes, there

80
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 3: was this thing called the newspaper people. And then I

81
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 3: kind of got to this point where I was like, man,

82
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 3: I got to shake some ass, like this is crazy.

83
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 1: I can't sleep in. I've tried.

84
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 3: I got to get to work by eight thirty nine

85
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 3: is when I would get into it when I was

86
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 3: in the record business, but before I got into radio,

87
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 3: and then I got into sports, and I'm doing an

88
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 3: afternoon show, So why the heck am I waking up early?

89
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 3: And then I'm doing the Lakers and I'm doing Laker

90
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 3: Line until eleven thirty midnight. Pois being I found at

91
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 3: First Golf and I was first one out dawn patrol

92
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 3: and I would jog the course so I could get

93
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 3: my run in, and I'd play golf because I had

94
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 3: to do something I wanted to feel productive. And then

95
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 3: now I get up and I'm first one in the

96
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 3: water like I was today, and I surf from five. Today,

97
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 3: I serf from you know, I'm in the water at

98
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 3: five and I'm out of the water at like seven thirty.

99
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 3: So Gadsden shares with us. He's like, I just can't

100
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,599
Speaker 3: get off East Coast time and I'm up at five

101
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 3: and I'm just kind of looking for something to do.

102
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 3: And you know, Coach Herb another Herb story, says we'll

103
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 3: just come in walk the facility, go walk, do mental

104
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 3: reps of your plays on the field. And he's like, yeah,

105
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 3: I'll be the only one here. He's like, okay, it's

106
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 3: all yours, dude, whole place is yours. And I think

107
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 3: that speaks to an in credible because it took me

108
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 3: a minute to get there, right. I had to mature

109
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 3: enough to realize, oh, don't just sit around like you

110
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 3: can be productive. You can actually get some stuff done

111
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 3: and get your day started instead of just bemoaning the

112
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 3: fact that you can't sleep. And I think it speaks

113
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 3: to the maturity level of a Rendez gast In junior

114
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 3: that he, you know, is like, ye okay, I'm up

115
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 3: and instead of just trying to go back to sleep,

116
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get some stuff done. And we learned that

117
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 3: he's been the first guy in the building between five

118
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 3: and five thirty, rides his bike in because didn't have

119
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 3: a car yet, and he's getting a ton of stuff done.

120
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 3: And I know that's a long story and I'm talking

121
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 3: a lot here, Chris, but it gets me to the

122
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 3: point of it's why he looked the way he did.

123
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 3: It's why he really shined in that Veteran Mini Camp

124
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 3: and we saw Herbert going I think he had eight targets,

125
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 3: seven catches in that last Veteran Mini Camp day on Thursday.

126
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,919
Speaker 2: The confidence that both Trey Harris and Gadsden possess, you

127
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 2: can feel it in this press ERUs Gatson said, I

128
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 2: guess they asked him, is anybody else in the building?

129
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 2: He was, yeah, the security guards there ya to the

130
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 2: security guard in the morning. Sometimes there's people in the

131
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 2: training room. But that that is what coach alluded to,

132
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 2: and he's not just saying it like these guys are

133
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 2: putting in the work for Gatston to come in here

134
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 2: into that tight ends room too, where there are veterans,

135
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 2: and he talked about the vets, Will Disley and Conklin

136
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 2: and even Tucker Fisk being able to help Aronde kind

137
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 2: of find the way as a rookie.

138
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 4: It's a great room to be in.

139
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 2: And I still think money, I still think that that

140
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 2: Conklin and Disley are going to be the guys that

141
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:42,919
Speaker 2: kind of lead the way, especially at the beginning of

142
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 2: the year. But Gatson just looks the part. He was

143
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,840
Speaker 2: the third team All American at Syracuse, was originally a

144
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 2: wide receiver. He just looks like a tight end. He

145
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 2: said he didn't play basketball, but he could certainly rebound.

146
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 2: And then one of the things that Trey Harris said

147
00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 2: talking about Justin Herbert and just kind of getting you

148
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 2: to a quarterback like him who's got the velocity and

149
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,479
Speaker 2: it is gonna put it on the money. He goes,

150
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 2: if you put it on the money, I'm gonna catch

151
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 2: the football. So I just I feel the confidence from

152
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 2: this rookie class, whether it's some of the defensive guys

153
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 2: or some of the pass catchers, they're.

154
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,239
Speaker 4: Not intimidated by the moment.

155
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 2: In fact, I think they're embracing the fact that they

156
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 2: have a quarterback like Justin Herbert.

157
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, to echo what coach Harbaugh said about Gadston, I

158
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 3: felt the same thing just watching his film and watching

159
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 3: you know, what he was doing at Syracuse, the way

160
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 3: he moves, the way he was used. You know, he'd

161
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 3: be playing I'm not gonna see he be playing AX,

162
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 3: but they'd split him out pretty wide, you know, at

163
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 3: times at Syracuse, and he was clearly a pass catching

164
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 3: tight end. So I just assumed that that as a

165
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 3: former wide receiver, you know, he's recruited to play wide

166
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 3: receiver at Syracuse, converted a tight end that he was

167
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 3: going to look like that, you know, like one of

168
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 3: those tight ends. And then you see him and you're like, well,

169
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 3: this dude's got he's just pretty thick man. He's got

170
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 3: a trunk on him now. And I think that also

171
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 3: speaks to when, you know, he talked about having four

172
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 3: different offensive coordinators and multiple head coaches during his time

173
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 3: at Syracuse and how the transition went, and again just

174
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 3: speaking to his maturity mentally, but also time on task, like, hey,

175
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 3: we think you'd be a better tight end and him saying, Okay,

176
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 3: well I want to play tight end in the NFL.

177
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: Well, you're one hundred and ninety pounds. Here's what you've

178
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 1: got to do.

179
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 3: So to know that that guy went from one hundred

180
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 3: ninety pounds his freshman year to two hundred and fifty

181
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 3: his senior year and still moves with that level of

182
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 3: fluidity speaks to, like I said, maturity, mental acuity, but

183
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 3: willingness to put in the physical that he's putting sixty

184
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 3: pounds on.

185
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 1: That is some work, man, That is some serious work.

186
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 4: Now.

187
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 3: I know you're taking a bunch of weight ging and

188
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 3: you've masked up over there, Chris, So I'm not sure

189
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 3: if you and og are having conversations about all that weight.

190
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 2: I'd be on the pup list in twenty four hours. Bro,

191
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 2: I go out there, I'm on the pup list immediately.

192
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 3: But he's he's a lot bigger, and I think that.

193
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 3: And he talked about how important it is for him

194
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:11,839
Speaker 3: to get the block and right, and how he's talking

195
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 3: to Tucker Fisk about footwork and headwork, you know, and

196
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 3: where his head needs to be and where his hands

197
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 3: need to be, and how important that is to him.

198
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 3: I thought it was a great answer. Instead of getting

199
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 3: defensive about you know, him his blocking and what he

200
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 3: needs to do, he said, what's the goal of every

201
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 3: football player be able to play every play. It's like,

202
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,439
Speaker 3: so he goes, I want to be I want to

203
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:31,679
Speaker 3: be in every play. So if I want to be

204
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,200
Speaker 3: in every play, that I got to figure out a block.

205
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 3: And so I'm going to figure it out because I

206
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 3: intend to play every play. And so I thought that

207
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 3: was cool. And then talking about how as he was

208
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 3: doing his mental reps or you know, getting his mental

209
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 3: reps while walking through the place on the field, how

210
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 3: he went through both each tight tight end position when

211
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 3: it was two tight end sets. He's like, yeah, so

212
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 3: I would walk the first time, you know, each of those,

213
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 3: and then I would get onto the next play. It

214
00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 3: just seems I was incredibly impressed. But that's you know,

215
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 3: his dad was a pro, and his dad was an

216
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 3: undrafted free agent, had to fight his way onto a

217
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 3: roster and ended up having a decade long career. We

218
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 3: was very successful. So I think that certainly paid a

219
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 3: ton of dividends for a Ronde.

220
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, and Ronde said, I need to arrive early.

221
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 2: My dad says always arrived early and that just shows

222
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 2: that want to and you know, as far as the

223
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 2: blocking is concerned, and he even said it, you're not

224
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 2: going to really know where you stand as a blocker

225
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 2: until the pads come on in training camp. So it's

226
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 2: really just kind of that ramp up to training camp

227
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 2: and it you know, I don't want to give any

228
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 2: anything away with our conversation with coach, but it just

229
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 2: I think it lends to the competition that's going to

230
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 2: be in each room and like they got deeper as

231
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 2: a football team. If you're a Chargers fan in twenty

232
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 2: twenty five, man, you should be excited. You're coming off

233
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 2: an eleven win season. I know that it's a very

234
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 2: difficult division with Hall of Fame coaches and the Chiefs

235
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 2: who have run it for the last decade plus, but

236
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 2: this is a team that just feels different this year

237
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 2: in terms of the depth, how they want to play football.

238
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 4: Just seeing the clips.

239
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 2: Of Amarion Hampton and Ajie Harris run the football in

240
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 2: mini camp, it can't it can't do anything but get

241
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 2: you to juiced for the season. You know, the team

242
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 2: teased two uniforms that are coming. I mean, there's there's

243
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 2: just a lot of excitement here in the middle of

244
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,960
Speaker 2: June with an early training camp because of the Hall

245
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 2: of Fame game, having that extra preseason game Brazil Week one.

246
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 2: For For as much as we like to say, Okay,

247
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 2: we got a little bit of a summer break, it's

248
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,680
Speaker 2: gonna be here in a blink.

249
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that is. I think July. What you say,

250
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 3: July fifteenth, I think is the uniform reveal sixteenth came

251
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 3: home exactly right. When you get into camp, we'll see

252
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 3: those new uniforms. Very you know how much I love uniforms,

253
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 3: so very excited about that. I can only hope that

254
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,960
Speaker 3: the pressure I have put on John Spanos will pay off,

255
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 3: but I have a feeling it won't. So just me

256
00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 3: and the fans, we just do not see. We do

257
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 3: not a line and what we want from our uniforms.

258
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 3: But that's a conversation for another day, because we got

259
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 3: coach on and just to kind of build and not

260
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 3: ignore Trey Harris. I think you covered most of it.

261
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 3: But it's funny, right, everybody is wired differently and operates

262
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 3: on a different clock, and Trey was the opposite, Right,

263
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 3: Trey's like, Man, I get here and I go through

264
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,319
Speaker 3: everything and then I'm standing around like that's it, that's

265
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 3: all we're doing.

266
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 2: Like, hey, lank Lane Kiffin was putting those fellows through

267
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 2: like twelve hour days.

268
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 4: It seems right.

269
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was like, so I just look for stuff

270
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 3: to do. He's like, I don't want to go home yet,

271
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,439
Speaker 3: so I'm just kinda Can I get some more? Can

272
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 3: I get with Herb? Can I get into a playbook?

273
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 3: Can I watch some film? Can I go outside and

274
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 3: move around? Can I pick the brain to some of

275
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 3: these vet Like it's good to see. It's exactly what

276
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 3: coach talked about with the rookies, and you know how

277
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 3: impressed he's been with what they're doing. And and look,

278
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 3: it all goes back to to really three guys like

279
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 3: if you talk about tone setters right on this team,

280
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 3: it's Derwin's Aimes, Justin Herbert and Khalil Mack. And when

281
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 3: you see them putting in the work and you see

282
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 3: them doing extra and you see them getting with Coach

283
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 3: Herb and going through and you hear Khalil Mack say

284
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,959
Speaker 3: how important Ben Herbert's been for him and why he's

285
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 3: here every day, Like that's just if you're a rookie,

286
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 3: you'd be like coach says, right, what would coach always say, Hey,

287
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 3: you see Derwin, just do what he does. That's that's

288
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 3: the best advice you see, Khalil Mack. Just do what

289
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 3: he does, follow him, do it everything he does, and

290
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 3: you're gonna be You're gonna be a better player for it.

291
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: So it was.

292
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,959
Speaker 3: It was impressive and and I think look, just to

293
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 3: kind of wrap up my last thoughts on the on

294
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 3: the rookie day on Monday that we got to see, like, uh,

295
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 3: well two things. One, you know, I think that well,

296
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 3: actually just one. There's a clip if you if you

297
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,760
Speaker 3: want to check it out if you haven't watched it yet,

298
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 3: not you, Chris, I know, yeah, but but the people

299
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 3: that are listening or watching check out the Jim Harbaugh

300
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 3: micd up and there's some really cool stuff in there.

301
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 3: But my favorite, and it's something we noticed last year

302
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 3: his first year as the head coach, was I wish

303
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 3: I could remember the young man's name. I can't right now,

304
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:09,680
Speaker 3: but he was clearly a camp quarterback and we're standing

305
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 3: on the sideline and we're watching him work with this

306
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 3: clearly fourth stringer might be lucky to make the practice squad,

307
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 3: but's probably going to have to latch on somewhere else.

308
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 3: The coach spent like ten minutes with him working on

309
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 3: footwork and working on his his you know, what he

310
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 3: needed to improve under center and what his dropbacks should

311
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 3: look like and how he should be handing off. And

312
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 3: there's that clip in there where he's talking to Trey

313
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 3: Lance and to DJ. You know, he's talking to DJ

314
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 3: about the scramble drill and how yeah, you're not stay

315
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 3: in the A gap and keep your eyes up and

316
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 3: he goes, this is what and you know you see

317
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 3: that individual work and that's just a little sliver and

318
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: it just speaks to to coach being a do as

319
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 3: I do, not do as I say kind of guy.

320
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 3: You know, he talks about feeling, you know, connected to

321
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 3: every one of these guys, no matter if it's all

322
00:14:55,880 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 3: pro Derwin James or dj U Angolula who's our fourth

323
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 3: string quarterback. You know, he's connected to him and he

324
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 3: wants to teach them and wants to make them better

325
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 3: and it's just so fun to see.

326
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would suggest popping that on before the interview too,

327
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 2: just to coach has this unique way of you said,

328
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 2: the instruction to guys like Trey Lance and DJ and

329
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 2: even Heineke just say, hey, we throw the ball away there,

330
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 2: just the quarterback one on one instruction, I think is great.

331
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 2: But then it's also just the fun talking lad about

332
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 2: baseball and Helen Durwin. He's a big peb and j guy.

333
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 2: And Derwen's like, what do you like Strawberry great? He's like,

334
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 2: surprise me, surprise me all of it.

335
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 4: I'll take it all.

336
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 3: I'll eat Apricott, don't care, let's go. I'm on the

Speaker 4: Yeah, I packed.

345
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,120

346
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 2: our leader. Maybe you're the leader in the clubhouse.

347
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 1: I think so. I think. So do you want the

382
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,840

Speaker 5: tomorrow than we were today.

386
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 3: You talked about the rookies and one of your pressers

387
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 3: and how impressed you were with this class. What is

388
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 3: it that impresses you? What do you expect from them

389
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 3: when they show up, and what do you expect from

390
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 3: them over the course of those eight weeks.

391
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, just you know, get get as good at football

392
00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 5: as they can, you know, really acclimate into the system,

393
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 5: learning the terminology and mostly just athletically, you know, just

394
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,879
Speaker 5: showing us where we can implement them. Into the to

395
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 5: the team. I did talk about him as a group,

396
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 5: you know, as a whole, you know, drafted, undrafted, they're

397
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 5: just about their business, uh, you know, not given one

398
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 5: bit of grief, uh, you know, on the field or

399
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 5: off the field, and they're just they're looking to do

400
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 5: and that that's really encouraging. I've and I've made the

401
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:40,440
Speaker 5: statement and and you know, if that offends any other

402
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 5: rookie class that we've ever had, you know, so be it.

403
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 5: But you know, so far, so far, really good.

404
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 2: In that rookie class last year set a high bar

405
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 2: with Joel macaukey.

406
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, let's start there, because I mean there is no

407
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 5: comparison being made to the Ladd and Joe. I don't.

408
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 5: I don't think any. I mean, that's that's a that's

409
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 5: a high bar that I wouldn't expect anybody to to

410
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 5: be able to accomplish what they did in their rookie season.

411
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 5: I mean that that uh, that was otherworldly what what

412
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 5: Ladd and and Joe were able to do. And Joe,

413
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 5: as good as he was last year, I call him

414
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 5: right now one of our most ascending players on the team.

415
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 5: He is, he's that that much better, that much improved.

416
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 5: Uh you know really the I think he's he's on

417
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 5: track for a Hall of Fame type of career and

418
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 5: uh it uh and I am not I don't not

419
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 5: feel like I'm going out on a ledge by saying that.

420
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,680
Speaker 5: And with that being said, uh you know that, Uh,

421
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 5: I still like that bar being set by those two.

422
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 5: And uh, you know the rookies that we have, Uh yeah,

423
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 5: they got the license, they got the ability to to

424
00:19:55,600 --> 00:20:00,239
Speaker 5: strive for that. Don't know if they'll accomplish what with

425
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 5: those two did, but hey have at it and uh

426
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 5: you know that's that's been the message and and been

427
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 5: really uh excited how the guys are coming along.

428
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 2: You know, it wasn't just it wasn't just Led and

429
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 2: uh and Joe though like with Eve and Cam, we're

430
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 2: able to accomplish correct and guys that didn't contribute last

431
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 2: year because of whether it's injury or just kind of

432
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 2: being developmental with a boy B and Junior Colston, expecting

433
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 2: those guys to take a step in their second year, uh,

434
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 2: being that we didn't really see them on the grass

435
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:28,400
Speaker 2: last year.

436
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, you with with with with Junior Colston, he had

437
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 5: some setbacks early appendix ankle. Uh, but he did get

438
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 5: on track you know about uh about middle of the

439
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 5: season and contributed a lot you know, played over three

440
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 5: four hundred plays you know, on the season, and uh,

441
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,679
Speaker 5: you know, expect him right now. He's in he's in

442
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 5: the kind of kind of shape where you want him.

443
00:20:55,400 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 5: I mean, it's all his key performance indicators or or five,

444
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:01,880
Speaker 5: you know, which is as high as you can get.

445
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 5: And it looks pretty much across the board.

446
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 2: Uh.

447
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 5: And then Justin has had an incredible off season. He

448
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 5: really has. He put on twenty pounds you know of

449
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:15,400
Speaker 5: good lean muscle mass. You know, he's been he's been

450
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 5: doing everything and doing all the extra and I expect

451
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 5: really good things from him.

452
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 3: When you talk about that and in off season, kind

453
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 3: of if you don't mind sharing, like what do you

454
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:27,639
Speaker 3: Is it a guide that you give them for the

455
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,399
Speaker 3: off season, This is what we'd like to see from you,

456
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 3: and then they're on their own?

457
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 1: Is it? Are they expected to figure some things out?

458
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:33,400
Speaker 1: How does that all work?

459
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 3: Because you talk about the Elite nine and guys that

460
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 3: showed up and how excited you were, but kind of

461
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 3: walk us through what you expect from somebody's off season.

462
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:45,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, real, real simple here, you know, it's Ben Herbert.

463
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 5: It's the Herb effect. You know, I trust him. I

464
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 5: trust and believe what he tells me because it's always clear,

465
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:58,679
Speaker 5: it's always concise. It uh. It just always helps our

466
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 5: team and it helps me personally. And that's the way

467
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,400
Speaker 5: it is for every single guy. So what do we expect.

468
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 5: If Ben Herbert is telling you to do more, then

469
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 5: you need to do more. If he tells you to

470
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 5: do less, do less. If he tells you you're in

471
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 5: a good place, keep doing what you're doing. It's really

472
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:25,760
Speaker 5: that simple. He has it is the coaching, the expertise

473
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 5: is so refined that and the proof now is there

474
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,160
Speaker 5: for all of us to see what he's been able

475
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 5: to accomplish with individual players. And the second part of

476
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,720
Speaker 5: that piece is those veterans. Is that those elite nines

477
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 5: and how they train, how they go about their business,

478
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 5: how they practice, how they go to meetings, how they

479
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 5: play in games. You know, it's no accident that Khalil Mack,

480
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 5: for example, is thirty four years old. Okay, he plays

481
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,399
Speaker 5: like he's twenty one. He is playing thirty four like

482
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,160
Speaker 5: he was twenty one years old. And he's been able

483
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,479
Speaker 5: to do that every single year. That he's been in

484
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 5: the league. Now, nobody is that genetically blessed. Nobody has

485
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,400
Speaker 5: the genealogy to be as good at thirty four as

486
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 5: they were at twenty one. That is all about training.

487
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 5: That's all about how you train, how you prepare, how

488
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 5: you practice, your mental and physical capabilities always being refined

489
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:33,160
Speaker 5: at their highest level. So when I say the Ben

490
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,920
Speaker 5: Herbert effect, you also have these veteran effects. How Justin

491
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 5: Herbert goes about his business, how Khalil Mack, how Derwin

492
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 5: James goes about his rashon lad Joe Alt, there is

493
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:50,679
Speaker 5: a day on Henley. It's those guys that set the

494
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 5: incredible example. Who are the tone setters. And now here's

495
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 5: a rookie class coming in that's never had it as

496
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 5: good as a could have it. I mean, no one

497
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,920
Speaker 5: has it better than them. To have Ben Herbert and

498
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 5: his staff and to have uh, these veteran players. Also

499
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 5: the coaching Mike Elston. Uh, I mean, it's just well

500
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 5: documented what what he's able to do, Greg Roman, Jesse Minter.

501
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 5: Another guy is Steve Klinscale. Uh. The way he is

502
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 5: able to coach the secondary, the way he is able

503
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 5: to coach defense. Uh, you know, I see it every

504
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 5: single day. I mean, that's the that's the triple threat

505
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,360
Speaker 5: right there. When you got when you have veteran players

506
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:41,439
Speaker 5: as an example, a training staff like Ben Herbert and

507
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 5: his his staff, and the position coaches all uh, all

508
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 5: all all ours, all stars. Uh. I mean, no one could,

509
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,119
Speaker 5: no one could have it better than than our rookie players.

510
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 5: And they're taking full advantage of it. That's that's the

511
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 5: thing I love is that they're not shying away from

512
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 5: the resources that they have at their disposal when it

513
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 5: comes to getting better at football.

514
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 4: Coach.

515
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,679
Speaker 2: The one name that we have heard all off season

516
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,159
Speaker 2: from a coach, a veteran or a young guy, is

517
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 2: Ben Herbert. I go back to when you hired him

518
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 2: in January of twenty eighteen. Could you have even envisioned

519
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:20,640
Speaker 2: the indeuble mark that he's made at Michigan and now

520
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 2: with the Chargers, with you guys teaming up.

521
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, I did envision it. I knew it.

522
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 1: I hired him. I knew it.

523
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, I knew it. Like my name, and like I said,

524
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 5: I when he tells me something, I believe it because

525
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:38,120
Speaker 5: it makes me personally better or it makes makes our

526
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:43,200
Speaker 5: team better, and all the time. It's just makes us better.

527
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 3: It's funny to hit on so many of the things,

528
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 3: and that one answer that I have here, So I

529
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 3: just I still would love for you to expand a

530
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 3: little bit because you mentioned coaching, and that's one thing

531
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,840
Speaker 3: that I noticed when players hit the lecter and they

532
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 3: oftentimes will mention their coach and like Tony Jefferson, you know,

533
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 3: unsolicited said jesse Miners a genius. And he's like, I've

534
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:02,639
Speaker 3: known him longer than you guys have. I had him

535
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,120
Speaker 3: in ball, so almost like he wanted to claim, Hey,

536
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 3: don't you claim jesse min Er, he's my guy. Just

537
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 3: when you're assembling your staff, what you're looking for and

538
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,360
Speaker 3: why you think they've had this this level of success

539
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,160
Speaker 3: because I have not heard players kind of celebrate coaches

540
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 3: like this group of players does their positional coaches here?

541
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:24,159
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean the the top things is what I

542
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 5: what I look for. I mean, uh, you know, first

543
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 5: guys that are have expertise in in coaching aspect of football,

544
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:39,879
Speaker 5: uh position or you know, defensive coordinator, offensive coordinator, uh,

545
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 5: special teams coordinator. They've got to be expert at at

546
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 5: that phase. They've got to be tremendous teachers. Uh. And

547
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 5: that's that's synonymous with uh with coaching is teaching. They

548
00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,119
Speaker 5: got to be able to motivate. They got to be

549
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 5: able to motivate players. I mean those are the uh,

550
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 5: those are the big ones. I mean there's there's others,

551
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 5: but uh, you know that's that's that's a you know,

552
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 5: that's a people person. It's it's somebody that that that

553
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 5: likes the game of football, loves the game of football,

554
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 5: and wants to see others have success. Really, they're just

555
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 5: two things. I mean, they're they're coming into, uh coming

556
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 5: in and they're humble and hungry to make us better.

557
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 5: But I know that that that list grew right there.

558
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,679
Speaker 5: But you know, if I had just sum it up,

559
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,399
Speaker 5: it would be, you know, that's somebody that you know

560
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 5: wants to make the players better at football, you know,

561
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 5: want to make the best version of themselves off the

562
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 5: field and off the on the field, and wants to

563
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 5: win for that. Right there, those two things.

564
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, sorry, Chris, I said this last week or maybe

565
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 3: two weeks ago on the pod, and I hope it

566
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 3: it makes sense and I can explain it. I said,

567
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 3: you know, I've been doing this football since twenty ten

568
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,200
Speaker 3: and all the coaches I've had the privilege to kind

569
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,400
Speaker 3: of be around and learn from and interview. I don't

570
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,479
Speaker 3: feel like I've ever talk to somebody or watch someone

571
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,719
Speaker 3: approach it the way you do, just the positivity I

572
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:07,679
Speaker 3: feel like, And tell me if this is accurate or not.

573
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 3: I feel like when I hear you and I see you,

574
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 3: you know, talk with us in the media, like you

575
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:15,120
Speaker 3: bear responsibility.

576
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 1: That's what I feel like.

577
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 3: You're like, I'm responsible for these players to be their

578
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,920
Speaker 3: best version, whereas other coaches not to. It's like, hey, yeah,

579
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 3: we're trying to get these guys to fit into what

580
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 3: I'm doing, you know, and we want them to kind

581
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,400
Speaker 3: of get with the program. And does that make sense?

582
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 3: I just I feel like that's that Does that make sense?

583
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,400
Speaker 3: Is that your approach? Like, Hey, I've got these guys

584
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 3: that are the most elite athletes in the world, and

585
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 3: the burden is on me to maximize what they're here

586
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 3: to give of themselves.

587
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 5: You just said it, I mean exactly the way I

588
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 5: think of it. I mean, when it comes to me

589
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 5: as a coach or the other coaches, Yeah, we have

590
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 5: to be the ones working the hardest so the players

591
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 5: hard work can be eximized. And it's everything that I

592
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 5: I you know, thought as a player. Uh you know that.

593
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 5: Uh yeah, I mean a coach you know, Uh, somebody

594
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 5: that can give me the answers, you know, to the test.

595
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 5: Somebody's going to put me in a position to be successful.

596
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 5: You know. That's those are the kind of coaches that

597
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,920
Speaker 5: you know, I looked up to and wanted to be like.

598
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 5: So that's that's what I aspire to do. Uh, do

599
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 5: anything and everything for for the players to be successful,

600
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:39,239
Speaker 5: you know, individual player, the team. Uh what can I do?

601
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 5: I want to do anything and everything I can so

602
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 5: they can be successful. Uh. And then I knew the

603
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 5: way I was when when I was a player and

604
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 5: I had a coach doing anything and everything, you know,

605
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 5: and its power for me to be successful. It made

606
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 5: me want to do anything and everything I could for

607
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 5: the team to be successful and to win coach.

608
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 2: One of the players that really is an extension of

609
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 2: that message is Derwin James, and Derwin talked about the

610
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 2: patches and says he wants to get it down to

611
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,240
Speaker 2: his rib. Yeah, you know him and Khalil kind of

612
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,960
Speaker 2: competing for those patches. You mentioned Khalil. When you have

613
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 2: players like that, and you know, you just get to

614
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 2: know him for a year. Uh, but I have to

615
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,959
Speaker 2: imagine it. It seems like you've known Derwin and Khalil

616
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 2: much longer than a year, with the impact that they've

617
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:23,960

00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 5: who set the culture. I mean I came in and

627
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 5: And Derwin James. You know, it's almost to me it's

628
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 5: like looking in the mirror. I mean, uh, I see

629
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 5: a young Jimmy Harball. You know, every time I watch

630
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,560

631
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 5: a pod. As my grandma Marie Harbaugh used to say, Uh,

632
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 5: if you're Derwin James, h if you like football, you're

633
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 5: gonna like Derwin James, and Derwin James is gonna like

634
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 5: you back, and then we're gonna roll.

635
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 3: The patches, if if we could kind of get into it,

636
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 3: because Derwin when he when he got he kind of

637
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 3: went through it. He's like, here's that block and this

638
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:29,640
Speaker 3: is playoff and this is all pro. And then he said,

639
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 3: this is block of granite. What's the if I could like,

640
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 3: what's the block of granite?

641
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: Patch? How do you earn the block of granite?

642
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 5: Uh? You you earned the block. Most of the one hundred,

643
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 5: one hundred of the points are earned from production on

644
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 5: the field in games. So uh, that's one hundred points

645
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 5: goes to how many uh, how many production grade game

646

649
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 5: plays forout the throughout the course of the season. So

00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 5: who impacted us in games the most is one points

651
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 5: out of one hundred, and then there's seven and a

652

659
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,240
Speaker 5: that I mentioned another two and a half points, and

660
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 5: then two and a half points. Uh if you were

661
00:32:54,520 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 5: playing through something, uh you know, physically fill in the blame. Uh,

662
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 5: something that that you had to uh you know you

663
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 5: had to got out. You know you got a high

664
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 5: ankle spraining your your Zion Johnson, and you know you

665
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 5: didn't even miss a walk through. Uh you know you

666
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 5: got Zion had his teeth extract molar, he had root

667
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,240
Speaker 5: canal done and uh, two and two hours before a

668
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 5: training camp practice. But yet he uh he still practiced.

669
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,959
Speaker 5: And then in the conditioning afterwards he was running with

670
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 5: the uh the big skill, which is a faster time

671
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 5: than the old line D line. He does it all

672
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 5: the time his conditionings with the tight ends and the

673
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 5: quarterbacks and the running backs and the linebackers. So uh yeah,

674
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 5: he was getting he was getting some extra credit points.

675
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 5: But uh so it's a total of one hundred and

676
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 5: seven and a half points. Uh. And it's completely objective,

677
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,520
Speaker 5: not subjective. Come to the end of the season and

678
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 5: you know, here's our here's our top six.

679
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 1: Uh, you should have a gala at the end of

680
00:33:59,320 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: the year.

681
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not really blue collar, but like what about

682
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 3: you know, you present it in front of an audience

683
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 3: and in front of it, you know what I mean,

684
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,359
Speaker 3: maybe we get like a live music or something at

685
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 3: the end of it, and it's just like a big production.

686
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 3: I mean, it's an award, it's an award presentation.

687
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's our. You know, it's our. It's our,

688
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 5: it's our m v P. You know, our block of

689
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 5: granted is is our m VP. Justin Herbert was was

690
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:26,360
Speaker 5: number one. You know, I think Derwin Derwin would have

691
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 5: been Derwin would have been one or two. I think

692
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 5: he might have finished, you'd have finished one or two

693
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:36,879
Speaker 5: had he played in the uh, the the Broncos game

694
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:41,759
Speaker 5: or the Chiefs game. Right, the Chiefs game is the

695
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:45,320
Speaker 5: one that the NFL took, took a game away from him,

696
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 5: So he wasn't able to get those production points. He

697
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 5: wasn't able to get those those.

698
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,880
Speaker 1: Play points objective and grip points.

699
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,400
Speaker 5: And as much as I you know, well, you know,

700
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,839
Speaker 5: it wasn't his fault that he got suspended for that game,

701
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 5: because it really wasn't thought that was a uh you know,

702
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 5: a clean hit, and but it was it's objective so uh,

703
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 5: you know, kind of just laid him down, but he

704
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 5: still made the still made the top six. This just

705
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 5: shows you what a what an incredible player he is.

706
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 5: But yeah, it's not a it's not a training you know,

707
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 5: there's there's two and a half points for for training

708
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 5: score that is all like what you do in in games.

709
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:24,879
Speaker 1: So that's the big one.

710
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,280
Speaker 5: That's the big one. That's a big one in my opinion.

711
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 5: It takes, uh, it takes all into account, you know,

712
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:36,799
Speaker 5: who is doing anything and everything they can for the team,

713
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 5: for the organization.

714
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 2: Coach, you mentioned so many ascending players last week, and

715
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 2: you know, as we take that break and get into

716
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 2: training camp, it sounds like there's gonna be a lot

717
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 2: of competition in camp for spots and there's gonna be

718
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,399
Speaker 2: some really good players that may not make that fifty three.

719
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 2: What are you most looking forward to from a competition

720
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 2: aspect at various position groups come training camp.

721
00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:00,839
Speaker 5: It's a great question. Uh, you know, the I mean

722
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 5: a long list, you know, like and it's never just

723
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 5: one thing. But if I had to boil it down

724
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 5: to one thing, I just feel like we are better

725
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:18,360
Speaker 5: at you know, name a position group and uh, you know,

726
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,360
Speaker 5: we're we're I think we're better, you know, you know,

727
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 5: depth wise, competition wise. Uh, you know, those those waters

728
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 5: will be heated, you know, and in some cases they're

729
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 5: gonna be They're gonna be hot. But uh, yeah, I

730
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:36,120
Speaker 5: could go through my defensive line. I think we're uh,

731
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,720
Speaker 5: I think we're better. I think we got we're bigger.

732
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 5: I know that offensive line is as you know, as

733
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:46,799
Speaker 5: a as a as a group. You know, it's just

734
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:52,280
Speaker 5: more talented, you know, better better depth wide receivers another

735
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:55,879
Speaker 5: one as good as running back was. I think we're

736
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 5: I think we're better there. Uh, you know going into camp,

737
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 5: the uh, the secondary, Uh, you know, been really excited

738
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 5: about Dante Jackson, what he's what he's shown in the

739
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 5: off season. Ben say juice, you know a lot of

740
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 5: the things that you can position where we can really

741
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:17,400
Speaker 5: see things before the pads come on, as opposed to

742
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 5: you know, edge rusher or even running back. You know,

743
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 5: sometimes you gotta it's tougher. Uh, you gotta see it

744
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 5: when the when the pads are on. Same with with

745
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 5: with the backer position in the offensive line position and

746
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 5: the defensive line position. Uh. But uh, just Heir Taylor

747
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,879
Speaker 5: is also another guy you know, ascending. You can just

748
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:39,799
Speaker 5: see it, and then you kind of go back and

749
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,919
Speaker 5: think about just here last year, Uh played that really

750
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,240
Speaker 5: good game against the Raiders. Then he broke a bone

751
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 5: in his leg in that game and and kept playing

752
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 5: kind of forgot about that, you know. Uh, and then Uh,

753
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 5: he's had a tremendous offseason. Excited where he's coming. The

Speaker 5: to be better, you know in stopping the run and

760
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,880

Speaker 5: Plus the the draft, we're better, We're gonna need to be. Uh,

770
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:02,000
Speaker 5: schedule is gonna be tougher, and uh, you know, all

771
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 5: focuses is really on that that opener against the Chiefs

772
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,239
Speaker 5: and San Paolo. So uh, you know, a lot of

773
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:13,920
Speaker 5: a lot of good, a lot of good, a lot

774
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,360
Speaker 5: more good. There's just a lot of good. Uh not.

775
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 5: You know, I can never say it's perfect. Uh, but

776
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:23,319
Speaker 5: that's that's the the simple message behind let's get better

777
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 5: today than we were yesterday and better tomorrow than we

778
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 5: were today. Ah, so simple that it just might work just.

779
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 1: On the old line.

780
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 3: I mean you you've done it to this fan base, man,

781
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 3: I have we you know, we do the that we

782
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:38,640
Speaker 3: post the video on YouTube and there's comments and I

783
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 3: have never seen a fan base talk more about the

784
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,839
Speaker 3: offensive line than the Chargers fan base.

785
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 5: I mean it is God, bless our God, bless our fair.

786
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 1: Conversation number one.

787
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,239
Speaker 3: So you know, and obviously that we get a ton

788
00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,880
Speaker 3: of questions about the big one is Zion and Bradley

789
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 3: and kind of what you're doing there and and what

790
00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:58,399
Speaker 3: the vision is.

791
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:00,319
Speaker 1: And sort of how you right now?

792
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 3: I mean that that's all they talk about what's the

793
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:03,479
Speaker 3: old line going to look like? Who are the starter

794
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 3: is going to be? Is I'm going to be the said?

795
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:06,879
Speaker 3: I mean it is not. It's everything good with for Shawn?

796
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 3: Are we okay?

797
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 1: There? It's NonStop in the comments. Well, so, how how is.

798
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,239
Speaker 5: That worm that warms the cockles of that? I hear that?

799
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 5: You know, there's uh, my favorite part of the uh,

800
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 5: my favorite part of the game of football these days

801
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 5: is is this is the offensive line? Uh? You know, yeah,

802
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 5: I'll give you a little trivia question. What position group

803
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 5: relies on no other position group for themselves to be good?

804
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:38,280
Speaker 5: Yet every other position group relies on this position group

805
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 5: to be successful at their job.

806
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,799
Speaker 1: I feel like we know where there's right.

807
00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 5: Sometimes you get the argument from the the D line.

808
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 5: We don't need those guys. You know, do you like

809
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 5: a twelve play drive? You like a fifteen play drive?

810
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:59,839
Speaker 5: Good point, coach, Yeah, we do like a twelve play drive. Yeah,

811
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,240
Speaker 5: that's uh, that's where that's where my attention is to, uh,

812
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 5: you know most of the time as well. And uh

813
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,319
Speaker 5: they are the ones protecting Justin Herbert, who is our

814
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:13,319
Speaker 5: you know he uh he just contributes to most of

815
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 5: this this organization. He does anything and everything in his power,

816
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,799
Speaker 5: you know, for us to to win and be successful,

817
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,360
Speaker 5: you know, our jobs are all to on the offensive

818
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,240
Speaker 5: side of the ball really rise up to his level,

819
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:29,760
Speaker 5: you know, rise up to the level of justice justin Herbert, uh,

820
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:33,279
Speaker 5: you know, and not to be because he has no

821
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:38,319
Speaker 5: weakness in his game. He has no auh. So we

822
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 5: don't want to be the weak link. You know, whether

823
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:44,160
Speaker 5: it's coaching or offensive line or tight end or receiver

824
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 5: or running back, we all want to we want to

825
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 5: rise up to the way he he goes about his

826
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,200
Speaker 5: business and he and he trains and and that really

827
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 5: starts at the starts with the offensive lot. I mean,

828
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 5: that's the as you said, the tip of the sphere.

829
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,320
Speaker 5: And it's been been really good.

830
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:01,919
Speaker 1: Uh.

831
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:04,439
Speaker 5: Great to have her Shan back. Uh. You know, it's

832
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:08,840
Speaker 5: just way better, way, different way, way, just way good

833
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 5: for for the Chargers. Uh when he's here, and that

834
00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:15,279
Speaker 5: that was obvious when he was here at the mini

835
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 5: camp and looked great in tremendous shape. Uh. You know,

836
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 5: he's one of our Elite nine. Now it's Elaite ten.

837
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 5: Josh Josh Harris. Yeah, at Joe alt as I mentioned

838
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 5: before as good as Joe was last year. He is

839
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 5: he is so strong. Now you know, we had one

840
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,239
Speaker 5: I will I won't say any names, but somebody tried

841
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:41,440
Speaker 5: to hip hip toss him, uh in a drill that

842
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:45,160
Speaker 5: we had, which you don't want to see. But the

843
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 5: effort was made to hip throw Joe Alt and it

844
00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 5: didn't budge. He didn't budge, and then Joe picked him up.

845
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:56,359
Speaker 1: Like a child.

846
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:03,240
Speaker 5: Set him back down. Yeah. The the young man learned

847
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 5: that that's this, that's not the guy to try to

848
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 5: to try to hit throw. But uh, ascending as much

849
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 5: as any player on our team is Joe Alt going

850
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 5: into two year two been really excited with Mackay Beckton.

851
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 1: Uh.

852
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,760
Speaker 5: The just how big we are on the right side

853
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:27,680
Speaker 5: of the the line of scrimmage. Yeah, we'll dictate that

854
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:31,239
Speaker 5: we'll probably be a right handed type of right type

855
00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 5: of team. And then the center and the left guard

856
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:39,920
Speaker 5: have been Zion Johnson. I gotta say is is one

857
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 5: of our most ascending players. And I don't think I

858
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:44,840
Speaker 5: put him in that twelve, but there's he should be.

859
00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:49,279
Speaker 5: He is an ascending player. Uh, not only at left guard,

860
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,440
Speaker 5: but also it's center. He's I mean just picking it

861
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:55,160
Speaker 5: up so well. Uh and so good. Uh. And you

862
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 5: see him climb to the second level with his athleticism.

863
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 5: He can pull from the center position, and we know

864
00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:03,640
Speaker 5: we can pull from the guard position uh and get

865
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,560
Speaker 5: him in space or in pulling or up under the

866
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:11,400
Speaker 5: second level. It's it's it's different. Uh. Bose was tremendous.

867
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,040
Speaker 5: He played all the games. He was one of our

868
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 5: blocks of granted last year, Bradley Boseman uh in the

869
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:22,040
Speaker 5: in the top six. So uh and and he he

870
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,719
Speaker 5: can just he's got the keys to the car. He

871
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:28,480
Speaker 5: can he knows all the calls. Uh. He's tremendous. He's

872
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 5: shown that he and he's shown in his career that

873
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 5: he's just good or maybe even better at guard. So

874
00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:41,960
Speaker 5: the versatility that we now have uh with maybe maybe

875
00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:44,799
Speaker 5: the combination is going to be better with Zion at

876
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:48,920
Speaker 5: center and Bows at guard. But if it's not, we

877
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,880
Speaker 5: know we've got a great combination with Bose at center

878
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:56,400
Speaker 5: and Zion at guard. Uh. So we we we feel

879
00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:58,760
Speaker 5: like we're in a in a really good place. Uh.

880
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:02,520
Speaker 5: Now the exciting thing is that there's there's guys really

881
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:06,200
Speaker 5: close to that starting five that will continue to keep

882
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 5: having at it. And uh, you know, we'll we'll have

883
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:11,919
Speaker 5: uh we'll have a lot of time to to show

884
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:16,319
Speaker 5: maybe that you know, they could. I don't see him

885
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 5: displacing any any any of those five right now if

886
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,320
Speaker 5: if all were healthy, all five of those were healthy.

887
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:28,440
Speaker 5: But uh, Jamari Sawyer has had a tremendous offseason. Uh

888
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:32,759
Speaker 5: he is. He is almost almost all the way there

889
00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 5: and where he needs to get with his his training

890
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:40,000
Speaker 5: and his body. And he's healthier, uh, you know than

891
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:43,080
Speaker 5: he was last year. Uh. Andre James has been a

892
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 5: great addition. And Trey Pipkins, who started for US at

893
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:54,239
Speaker 5: guard last year. Uh, you know, we're everybody healthy projecting

894
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:58,360
Speaker 5: like be be the swing tackle tray uh and the

895
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 5: tremendous value. We have a star caliber offensive lineman who

896
00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 5: is our is our swing tackle. Uh is is our

897
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 5: plan right now, and that would be a that would

898
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 5: be a healthy uh you know, game in game out.

899
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:16,680
Speaker 5: We know we have a a swing tackle that if

900
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,719
Speaker 5: something happens to one of our two All pros, then uh,

901
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 5: you know, we've got it. We've got a great player

902
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:25,400
Speaker 5: in in in Trey Pipkins, and and he probably Trey

903
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:28,680
Speaker 5: uh you know, he should probably be in that he's

904
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,720
Speaker 5: really close to that elite ten. Uh. The way he trains,

905
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:35,920
Speaker 5: I mean, it's it's all all almost all five fives

906
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:39,520
Speaker 5: across the board and his key performance indicators. Uh. And

907
00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 5: a good group of young offensive linemen. Uh, I think

908
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:47,279
Speaker 5: we're way better. That's it takes offensive lineman most of

909
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,720
Speaker 5: the time of year. Uh, you know, to physically develop

910
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:54,399
Speaker 5: and mature and you know, understand the speed and the

911
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:58,239
Speaker 5: and the calls and the everything that goes into offensive

912
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 5: line play. But you know, our drafted offensive lineman and

913
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:07,480
Speaker 5: our free agents signed offensive lineman, we're better. We're better

914
00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 5: in that that, you know, not eight eight to fourteen

915
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:17,680
Speaker 5: than we were last year. Great guys to work with

916
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:22,759
Speaker 5: and and develop because it's rare that not everybody's Joe

917
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:27,319
Speaker 5: alt Rashon and Zion to where they can just come

918
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 5: into the NFL and and be a starter in year one.

919
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,640
Speaker 5: So yeah, as I said, a lot of good, just

920
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:39,480
Speaker 5: a lot of good. And appreciate the uh, the the

921
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:43,680
Speaker 5: Charger fan base. It you just like me. It's all

922
00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:47,120
Speaker 5: I think about too, mostly about other things. But I

923
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 5: mean a lot of high percentage is the offensive line coach.

924
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:51,520
Speaker 2: We know you got to go and get on the grass.

925
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:52,800
Speaker 2: We can't take you off your time. It's hard to

926
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:55,040
Speaker 2: believe training camp is a month away. Are you are

927
00:47:55,080 --> 00:48:00,319
Speaker 2: you gonna do anything uncharge the batteries for a month

928
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:01,400
Speaker 2: before camp relax?

929
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:07,919
Speaker 5: Uh yeah, my wonderful family. Uh we've got we've got

930
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:11,160
Speaker 5: some we've gotta we've got a trip to uh see

931
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:15,440
Speaker 5: you see our families back in Michigan and in Sarah's

932
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:19,080
Speaker 5: and Kansas City, and then uh we have ah my

933
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:22,600
Speaker 5: daughter Katie wanted to go to somewhere tropical. So uh

934
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:25,680
Speaker 5: we're uh we've got something and something we think lined

935
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:28,359
Speaker 5: up for that. So it'll be like a six day,

936
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:32,080
Speaker 5: six mark sixth day and uh yeah, be like you

937
00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:37,640
Speaker 5: know the uh I stay sharp in the vacations. It's

938
00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 5: not like, uh, there's no unwinding.

939
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:41,840
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not like a vacation.

940
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:43,680
Speaker 5: I gotta go to work here. I gotta make sure

941
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:45,600
Speaker 5: that we make some memories.

942
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:47,880
Speaker 1: We create some memories for your attacking the vacation.

943
00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:51,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're attacking with an enthusiasm. And my wife's Saarah

944
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:52,480
Speaker 5: is the same way.

945
00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:55,400
Speaker 4: So vacation patches though, Yeah, we should have some.

946
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:57,960
Speaker 5: That's what you do, right, I mean, it's just the

947
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:00,560
Speaker 5: same thing, patches for what you've become and then we

948
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:03,759
Speaker 5: put the vacation stickers on the on the.

949
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:04,839
Speaker 1: Suitcase exactly right.

950
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:06,799
Speaker 5: Another analogy just came up with, there we go.

951
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:07,719
Speaker 1: I love it. I love it.

952
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:09,919
Speaker 2: You're the best, coach you thanks so much, appreciate you,

953
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 2: thank you, Thanks coach well money.

954
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:14,040
Speaker 4: You said it.

955
00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 2: It was supposed to be fifteen minutes turned into over thirty.

956
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:18,560
Speaker 4: And just coach is great.

957
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:20,520
Speaker 2: And I just go back to that last answer on

958
00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 2: the offensive line, the amount of in depth analysis he gave,

959
00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:27,760
Speaker 2: but also because you said the fans loved the offensive line,

960
00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:29,720
Speaker 2: and he was like, I got to give.

961
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:33,000
Speaker 1: Ye they want. And I'm not that that wasn't blowing

962
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:33,839
Speaker 1: smoke either. Man.

963
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 3: You know, I go into the YouTube comments and it's

964
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:42,600
Speaker 3: fifty percent minimum fifty percent are comments about the offensive line,

965
00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:46,720
Speaker 3: and it's just he's he's got him, man, he's got him. Looked,

966
00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:49,600
Speaker 3: He's And now look, I think it also has something

967
00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:51,960
Speaker 3: to do with the way the season played out last

968
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,560
Speaker 3: year and and you know, the questions about Bradley and

969
00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:56,440
Speaker 3: Zion and how this whole thing's going to shake out

970
00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:58,879
Speaker 3: in the contract with Shawn Slater and how impressive their

971
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,840
Speaker 3: top five pick was, and al I mean it certainly

972
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:04,520
Speaker 3: has something to do with it. But I think our

973
00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:08,200
Speaker 3: fan base, that the Chargers fan base is incredibly smart

974
00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 3: and recognizes and has picked up those cues from Coach

975
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:15,960
Speaker 3: Harbaugh about how that's that's the unit that's got to

976
00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:19,759
Speaker 3: operate at a at a certain level in order for

977
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:21,959
Speaker 3: this whole thing to work, and if they don't, it's

978
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:25,359
Speaker 3: not gonna You know, when you heard Coach Roman talk

979
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:28,759
Speaker 3: about it as well, he's like, well, if so, It's

980
00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 3: like it's not just Coach Arbough, it's like Coach Roman saying, well, look,

981
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:35,080
Speaker 3: if we can't block, well, now play action's not gonna

982
00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:38,399
Speaker 3: work because they're not honoring the run and because they've

983
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:40,480
Speaker 3: shut down my run game and now they're not biting

984
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:43,400
Speaker 3: on play action, and now if they're in my backfield

985
00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 3: in you know, because they're getting they're taking advantage of

986
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:48,919
Speaker 3: what's up front. Now I can't have a seven step drop.

987
00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:51,120
Speaker 3: Now I can't run routside, so they know everything's gonna

988
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:52,720
Speaker 3: be quick game and they're going to be jumping routes

989
00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:55,200
Speaker 3: and stuff. He's like, you, that's it's where it starts.

990
00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:58,040
Speaker 3: If you don't have offensive line, you have nothing. So

991
00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:00,839
Speaker 3: the coaches have done a good job of conditioning us

992
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:03,040
Speaker 3: and the fans to know how important that group is,

993
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 3: and certainly it's been a driving force this entire offseason.

994
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:10,280
Speaker 3: When it comes to the commentary that we find beneath

995
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:12,920
Speaker 3: our videos on YouTube that I've engaged with, and I

996
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 3: do want to point out I quickly want to apologize

997
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:18,279
Speaker 3: because I don't like asking long questions. I know I

998
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,239
Speaker 3: get very long winded on here when you and I

999
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:22,680
Speaker 3: are talking, much to the detriment of the contributions you

1000
00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 3: can make, because I can talk too much.

1001
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:27,040
Speaker 2: Come on, but we love to hear the voice.

1002
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:27,319
Speaker 4: Bro.

1003
00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:32,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I did ask an incredibly long winded question

1004
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,880
Speaker 3: to coach about his positivity and the way he coaches,

1005
00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:38,600
Speaker 3: and I apologize for taking so long to get to

1006
00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:40,359
Speaker 3: my point, but I wanted to make sure because Coach

1007
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:42,239
Speaker 3: doesn't like you kissing his ass, I wanted to make

1008
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 3: sure he knew it wasn't a kiss asked question, but

1009
00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:48,520
Speaker 3: it was just how did you come upon this philosophy?

1010
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:50,759
Speaker 3: And then I had not seen the ted Lasso stuff yet,

1011
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:54,640
Speaker 3: and so Eric Smith, who obviously does a great job

1012
00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 3: with us at Chargers dot Com, had pointed it out

1013
00:51:57,560 --> 00:51:58,880
Speaker 3: to me, and so then I went and sought that.

1014
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,080
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, crap, the entire thing that he's

1015
00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:03,080
Speaker 3: talking about here. So it's just kind of like, hey,

1016
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:05,560
Speaker 3: I'm repurposing it, and it's a long question, and it's

1017
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:07,799
Speaker 3: following this because this is going to come out when

1018
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:08,399
Speaker 3: it comes out.

1019
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:10,239
Speaker 1: So again, apologies.

1020
00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:11,359
Speaker 4: Well, I think people know.

1021
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:13,480
Speaker 2: It's hard to keep up with a twenty four hour

1022
00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:15,719
Speaker 2: news cycle and the fact that we did this on money.

1023
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:18,880
Speaker 4: There's stuff that happens. You know how many times we've.

1024
00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:21,120
Speaker 2: Done this podcast where we talk about a free agent

1025
00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 2: and they get signed the next day or the next minute.

1026
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,400
Speaker 1: After three hours later after we post.

1027
00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:28,719
Speaker 4: What was I gonna mention to you?

1028
00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:32,759
Speaker 2: Oh, with coach in some of the things that he

1029
00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:35,239
Speaker 2: talked about with the offensive line, I wanted to mention

1030
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:37,120
Speaker 2: it because it goes back to your original interview with

1031
00:52:37,120 --> 00:52:40,400
Speaker 2: Greg Roman. Greg Roman says, Joe all hands down, all pro.

1032
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:44,160
Speaker 2: I talked to Joe about what Greg Roman said during

1033
00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:46,200
Speaker 2: media day, and he just talked about how much is

1034
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:50,040
Speaker 2: how much more comfortable he feels in your two actually

1035
00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:52,680
Speaker 2: be able to like train and do football as opposed

1036
00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,400
Speaker 2: to prepare to get drafted for an NFL team. And

1037
00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:58,840
Speaker 2: here coach Harbaugh says, gold jacket. Like, yeah, he says,

1038
00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:02,480
Speaker 2: Joe All is going jack material in year two. And

1039
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 2: we knew how good Joe was his rookie year. And

1040
00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:07,440
Speaker 2: you know, when he was selected five overall and the

1041
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:09,480
Speaker 2: league Neighbors was on the board and some other players

1042
00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:14,040
Speaker 2: were available, we knew that offensive line, as coach Oway says,

1043
00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:17,320
Speaker 2: tip of the spear. But in year two to already

1044
00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:19,920
Speaker 2: have that conviction about your right tackle, I think it

1045
00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:20,800
Speaker 2: speaks volumes.

1046
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:24,080
Speaker 1: Home run pick. Yeah, home run pick.

1047
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,359
Speaker 3: And it's not taking anything away from elite Neighbors who

1048
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:28,920
Speaker 3: had an exceptional rookie season.

1049
00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:29,480
Speaker 1: He was great.

1050
00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:32,799
Speaker 3: But you know, and and again I don't think you

1051
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:34,400
Speaker 3: could have gone wrong on that. But for what this

1052
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,680
Speaker 3: team wants to do, how this team wants to operate,

1053
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:39,560
Speaker 3: I've said it a million times.

1054
00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:40,719
Speaker 1: You see it.

1055
00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:44,680
Speaker 3: You see wide receivers move around quite a bit when

1056
00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:47,640
Speaker 3: teams don't feel like paying them. You know, whether that's

1057
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:51,200
Speaker 3: Aj Brown or you know, the list just goes on.

1058
00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:55,200
Speaker 3: DK Metcalf just getting trade. Like what you don't see

1059
00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:58,239
Speaker 3: is O Lineman. I know, you know Laramie Tunzel's been

1060
00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:01,400
Speaker 3: traded twice. How that workout? The first team the Dolphins

1061
00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:03,440
Speaker 3: chased a left tackle for the next ten years and

1062
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,560
Speaker 3: could never get it right. You know, Trent Williams traded

1063
00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:09,600
Speaker 3: from Washington to San Francisco. They end up going to

1064
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:12,200
Speaker 3: two Super Bowls with him as arguably the MVP of

1065
00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:16,160
Speaker 3: that team. Like, it just doesn't o line. That's why

1066
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:18,480
Speaker 3: Rashaun Slater's contract's going to get done. Like that's just

1067
00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:22,480
Speaker 3: how this thing works. So and look, we did this.

1068
00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:25,120
Speaker 3: You know, we did this going into the draft, we

1069
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:26,840
Speaker 3: did this coming out of that draft, so we know,

1070
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:29,800
Speaker 3: we remember what was said, we remember what the temperature

1071
00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:33,080
Speaker 3: was when Joe was the pick. And so not saying

1072
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:34,719
Speaker 3: that you have to hold to that and own it

1073
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:36,480
Speaker 3: or erite crow, that's not the point at all. It's

1074
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:40,880
Speaker 3: just I think it's exciting to know that, even in

1075

Speaker 3: hear it. I don't want to hear it.

1108
00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:05,520
Speaker 4: So now that's all you got to hear about.

1109
00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:08,560
Speaker 1: Now you keep the Navies to yourself.

1110
00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:13,360
Speaker 3: You understand they're winless, winless in navies, So I don't

1111
00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:14,560
Speaker 3: want to hear it.

1112
00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:16,840
Speaker 1: It's Royals. We want the We want.

1113
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:20,360
Speaker 3: The nineteen seventy eight to nineteen eighty one Royal Blues.

1114
00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:23,440
Speaker 3: That's what we want. And by we I mean this

1115
00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:25,480
Speaker 3: guy right here. I can't speak for Chris. He probably

1116
00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:26,160
Speaker 3: wants the Navies.

1117
00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:26,839
Speaker 4: I love.

1118
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:29,960
Speaker 2: I love the Royals. I'm partial to the Dan Fout

1119
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:31,160
Speaker 2: Sarah as well.

1120
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:34,000
Speaker 4: But you know the name. Listen, yeah, the LT Navies.

1121
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:37,319
Speaker 2: You know they bring back I think a lot of

1122
00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:40,080
Speaker 2: memories for Chargers fans. I mean, this is this is

1123
00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:45,120
Speaker 2: like the Ladania, Tomlinson to Chill your Gates, Seawn Merriman,

1124
00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:46,120
Speaker 2: Nick Hardwick era.

1125
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,560
Speaker 1: Look, I'm just gonna highlight. I'm gonna highlight this.

1126
00:56:49,719 --> 00:56:50,080
Speaker 4: Chris.

1127
00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:51,040
Speaker 1: Here we go.

1128
00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:58,239
Speaker 3: When I say Navy, like when I say NFL Navy uniform,

1129
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,040
Speaker 3: the first two things that come to my head are

1130
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:04,680
Speaker 3: Dallas Cowboys, and how could they not the Dallas Cowboy

1131
00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:07,160
Speaker 3: Navies are freaking the Dallas Cowboys.

1132
00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:10,560
Speaker 1: It's the Dallas Cowboys. They wear navy, you know.

1133
00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:14,360
Speaker 3: And then the second is the Chicago Bears, the oldest

1134
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:20,439
Speaker 3: franchise in the NFL. They wear navy. The America's team

1135
00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:26,200
Speaker 3: and the oldest team in the NFL wear navy. When

1136
00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:29,720
Speaker 3: you say powder blue, you think of the Chargers. When

1137
00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:33,680
Speaker 3: you say royal blue, I think of the Chargers. When

1138
00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:36,720
Speaker 3: I say Navy, I think of the Cowboys, or I

1139
00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:40,040
Speaker 3: think of the Bears, because they're the Cowboys and the

1140
00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:41,160
Speaker 3: Bears and.

1141
00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:44,960
Speaker 1: They wear Navy. Like that, I said, I wasn't gonna

1142
00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:46,120
Speaker 1: get into it.

1143
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:48,080
Speaker 4: If it's a one off.

1144
00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:49,480
Speaker 1: It's a beautiful this shade of blue is.

1145
00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:54,600
Speaker 2: If it's an homage for a game, you know, we

1146
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:56,880
Speaker 2: we've done the Navies and the Royals for a game.

1147
00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,320
Speaker 2: But I think I think the organization and the fans

1148
00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:01,480
Speaker 2: largely record the powder blues of the powder Blues.

1149
00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,600
Speaker 4: That's why that's their primary uniform now.

1150
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:07,320
Speaker 2: So money, if it's uniform talk, if it's third and long,

1151
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:09,440
Speaker 2: if it's red zone, we'll get into it over the

1152
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:11,520
Speaker 2: next month. Anything else before we get out of.

1153
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,800
Speaker 3: Here, absolutely, Chris, looking forward to it again for next

1154
00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:18,600
Speaker 3: week and obviously moving forward, keep the communication going. Whatever

1155
00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:21,360
Speaker 3: you guys and gals out there are thinking, we want

1156
00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:22,960
Speaker 3: you to lean in with us as well.

Speaker 1: We'll be answering.

Speaker 3: We'll be looking forward to every single week's Chargers Weekly,

1159
00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,240
Speaker 3: even though we got nothing going, nothing planned until the

1160
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:30,320
Speaker 3: middle of July.

1161
00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:33,160
Speaker 2: All right, well, plenty of time to get into the

1162
00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:36,000
Speaker 2: uniforms and everything else Chargers as we ramp up to

1163
00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:37,520
Speaker 2: training camp in mid July.

1164
00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:39,320
Speaker 4: That's gonna do it for us.

1165
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:39,919
Speaker 2: For money.

1166
00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:41,720
Speaker 4: I'm Chris. This has been Chargers. We
