Have you finished your Yeah, 9 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 1: I've got a lot of people I pay to do 10 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:41,879 Speaker 1: Christmas shopping. That's very great ty of you. I mean, 11 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 1: considering the fact that you know everybody, I would think 12 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 1: holiday shopping is extremely complicated for you. Very simple, very simple. 13 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: I got I got a great group that makes it work. 14 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: That's nice. A group you've got. You've got people. I've 15 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: got people. That's what they decided. Y'all we're getting not much. Okay, 16 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 1: Well that's all right. That might be the way to 17 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: do it. That's sorry. Jim Wyatt is on assignment. We're 18 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: down to the wire now taping this show on Tuesday, 19 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:16,320 Speaker 1: December the seventeenth, so lots to cover and let's jump 20 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 1: sort of right in. The Titans have two players who 21 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: were elected to the Pro Bowl. Derreck Henry will make 22 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,479 Speaker 1: his first appearance right now. Two hundred and seventy one 23 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: carries for thirteen hundred twenty nine yards and thirteen touchdowns. 24 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:35,119 Speaker 1: He also has two more touchdowns receiving, So Derreck Henry 25 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 1: is headed to the Pro Bowl. Punter Brett Kern headed 26 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: to the Pro Bowl for the third straight year. He's 27 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: averaging forty seven and a half yards per punt forty 28 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: three point six nat, thirty four down inside the twenty 29 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: just two have gone for touchbacks. Brett Kern has had 30 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: another great year and has a great reputation. Now Amy 31 00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: Well is going to give you the chance to react 32 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 1: to Derrick Henry and Brett Kern making the Pro Bowl. 33 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: You know, I'm not surprised by either one of them. 34 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry has had a monster year. We've seen him 35 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: get better and better and better as the years go on, 36 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: and especially in the second half of seasons somehow, So 37 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: this is definitely something that I think he's deserved. He 38 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 1: keeps setting these records and he keeps putting up these 39 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: numbers that are just amazing. Not to mention the fact 40 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 1: that for three weeks in a row, he was the 41 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: FedEx Aaron Ground Player of the Year or Player of 42 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: the Week. I mean, things like that just keep happening 43 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: and so definitely deserve the recognition of going to the 44 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl. And Brett Kern is Bret Kern. I mean 45 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: it seems like everything that he does, whether it's punting, 46 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: whether it's in some of the trick plays that they're 47 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: trying to do, I mean, I don't think the man 48 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: wants to take too many tackles like the in the 49 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: Tampa game. Yeah like that. But Brett Kern has just 50 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: been so successful and much like Derrick Henry, we've seen 51 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: him continue to get better and be this consistent weapon 52 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: for the Titans. Not to mention he's been there a 53 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: couple of times. His kids love going to the Pro Bowls. 54 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 1: Then that's all the more reason to pay. When you 55 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 1: have three kids and you're taking them to Disney World, 56 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 1: everybody wins. Well, there you go, so no surprises, there, 57 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 1: no surprises. Those were the two I thought would get in. 58 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: We'll hear about the alternates going forward in the next 59 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: few weeks and what their chances are. But Derrick Henry 60 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: and Brett Kern are the Titans Pro Bowlers as it 61 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: stands right now, playoff scenarios, it's actually pretty simple. After 62 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: New Orleans hammered Indianapolis. It really comes down to two things. 63 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: The AFC South, which if Houston wins at Tampa on Saturday, 64 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: and that game is noon Central, Houston wins the division, 65 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: they're the division champions. It's over right. If Tampa beats 66 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: Houston on Saturday, and then the Titans were to knock 67 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: off the Saints on Sunday, all them ares next weekend 68 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: in Houston for the AFC South, I don't know if 69 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: my little heart can handle it. Well, you better get 70 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: ready for it. That's exactly what we want. That's exactly 71 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: what we want. Okay. So if Houston goes ahead and 72 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: wins the division, the Titans can still get in as 73 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: a wildcard. But the most likely scenario, and there are 74 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: other small mathematical chances in other areas, but the most 75 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 1: likely scenario involves the Titans and the Steelers. If the 76 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: Steelers lose one of their final two games Jets or Ravens, 77 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: and the Titans beat Houston, the Titans would win the 78 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:47,799 Speaker 1: last playoff spot based on strength of victory. If both 79 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 1: teams win their last two games, Pittsburgh goes with a 80 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 1: better AFC record. Okay, so that's the case. The Titans 81 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: could go if they're ten and six and the Steelers 82 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: are not in seven. The Titans could go if they're 83 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: nine and seven and they beat Houston, not if they 84 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: beat New Orleans, because that's an NFC win that doesn't help. 85 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: If they finished Tide and they beat Houston, they go. 86 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: If they finished Tide and they beat New Orleans and 87 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: not Houston, they don't go. So we're watching this weekend 88 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 1: for the Saturday game Houston at Tampa, and we're watching 89 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and the Jets this weekend, which is a Sunday game, 90 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: And that's where the process starts. By losing last Sunday, 91 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: the Titans lost control. But they are by no means 92 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 1: out of it. No, they're not out of it. And 93 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: I mean, that's an excellent, excellent explanation. I mean, and 94 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: you hit every major point, and that's exactly the scenarios. 95 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: And it boils down to this. The Titans need to 96 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: win ball games and just go ahead and win this 97 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 1: week and then we'll see where the other scenarios go. 98 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: And that's the sentiment around the building. Is we can't 99 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: control all of those other things. We can't control beating 100 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: the Saints on Sunday, So that's what we need to 101 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: do well. It has been said accurately that the Titans 102 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: can finish ten and six and not go to the playoffs. 103 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: That's true, but I don't think that's likely. I think 104 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: if the Titans win their last two games, I believe 105 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: they're going to go to the playoffs. Agree with you, Mike. 106 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 1: History shows if you mark out, it works out for you. 107 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: And I'll never forget two thousand and six. We needed 108 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 1: five things to happen. We needed five things to happen 109 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: on the last Sunday, including we needed to beat New England. 110 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: Didn't do it. The other four things happened. It was 111 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: I lived that on the sideline. It was awful because 112 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: Jeff Fisher told the football team, he said, this is 113 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: gonna happen. He did, He told He told him early 114 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: in the week too. He said, you know, just concentrate 115 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: on New England and these other instances. He put it 116 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: up on the board, he put it up with a PowerPoint. 117 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 1: He said this and this, He said, all of this 118 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: will happen. Let's take care of business. Yeah, I'll tell 119 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: you what, it's the greatest time of the year because 120 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: every football game that you watch means something to you 121 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: in some way. So it's so fun in that regard. 122 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: But I also have like this beautiful mind numbers and 123 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: scenarios and arrows just rolling through my brain right now. Well, 124 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,559 Speaker 1: Robbie Boring and Dwight Spradland from our media relations staff 125 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: did a great job getting with the league and with 126 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: Alias and laying all of that out for us. And 127 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: because fans have said, after losing on Sunday, people have said, oh, 128 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: well it's you know, it's over. No, I mean it's not. 129 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: The Titans will go to the end No, absolutely, they 130 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: will go to the end in Houston with a chance 131 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: to make the playoffs. So that's a I mean, as 132 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: far as tough scenarios go, it's a best case scenario. Yep. Well, 133 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: and you know, all of our listeners on the OTP, 134 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: I mean, you laid it out perfectly. That was a 135 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: great explanation. Thank you. I appreciate that. Saints of the 136 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: opponent this week, but they look pretty good on Monday 137 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 1: night football. Decent, Yeah, yeah, decent. What was that? Drew 138 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: Brees missed one pass How does that happen? Twenty nine 139 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: out of thirty? How does that happen? He just placed 140 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: so well in He's New Orleans. That wasn't That wasn't 141 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: an anomaly. He's done that for a long time, for 142 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: nineteen years. Yes, you know. But the funny thing is 143 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: they were getting ready to bench him in San Diego. 144 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: We went out there to play Marty Schottenheimer and the Chargers. 145 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: They were one and two, and they were ready to 146 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: bench him. Oh, he didn't have it because they had 147 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,199 Speaker 1: drafted Philip rit They actually drafted Eli Manning and traded 148 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 1: for Philip Rivers to replace him because he was just 149 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 1: n That's how they felt about it. And so we 150 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: go out there and we think, Okay, we got a 151 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 1: good shot to beat these guys, but we're a little 152 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: beat up, and he took us apart and it changed 153 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: the arc of his career. From there, he went crazy 154 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: and at the end of the two thousand and five 155 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: season they had to make a decision on him, and 156 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: he tore his laboram in the last game of the season, 157 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: and that changed I think SEC history. And you're saying, 158 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: how is that? I am? Okay? Nick Saban is a 159 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: coach of the Miami Dolphins. Yeah, the Miami Dolphins need 160 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 1: a quarterback. Nick Saban, if you believe the story, wants 161 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 1: Drew Brees. They talked to Drew Brees. The doctors are 162 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: not sure about him because a labram tear is a 163 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 1: big deal in your throwing shoulder. New Orleans says we'll 164 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: take you. So he ends up going to New Orleans 165 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: for the two thousand and sixth season. The Dolphins end 166 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: up with Dante Culpepper. Nick Saban does two years with 167 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: the Dolphins, doesn't win anything, realizes he doesn't care for 168 00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: the Pro game, goes to Alabama, changing life in the 169 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: SEC dramatically. What happens in Miami? How many Super Bowls 170 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: has Nick Saban won in Miami? If Drew Brees is 171 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: his quarterback, well, he would have won more games than 172 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: he one to begin with. Now you don't know about 173 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: the people he would have surrounded him with. I want 174 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 1: to tell you I think if you're looking at at 175 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: revisionist history, I don't think the Patriots have had the 176 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: run they have had. If that happens the one I 177 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 1: think they've won some don't get me wrong, but can 178 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: you imagine the AFC East battles between Nick Saban and 179 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: Drew Brees and Tom Brady and Bill Belichick. Here's the 180 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: one thing I would throw a caveat. I would throw 181 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 1: into that whole formula is Sean Payton. Because Sean Payton, 182 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: his offense and his marriage with Drew Brees is beautiful. 183 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: That's a great point. It's beautiful, and so I mean 184 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: Nick Saban would have had the quarterback. Nick Saban still 185 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: would have needed to have gotten the guy to call 186 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: the plays and implement it. That's a fair point, see's 187 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 1: And that's what I was going to say, Good job coach, Mac, 188 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 1: Thanks Amy. I was going to say that you might 189 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: not have a Tom Brady Bill Belichick relationship with a 190 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: Nick Saban and Drew Brees. They might. Nick Saban still 191 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: might decide that he doesn't like coaching in the pros 192 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 1: after a year. I disagree. I think Nick Saban has 193 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: always been a pro coach. I think that's the strength 194 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: of what he does at Alabama is he brings a 195 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 1: lot of He's got the work ethic and the recruiting understanding, 196 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: and he gets the whole thing about a university, which 197 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: a lot of pro coaches don't. But I still think 198 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: his philosophy and where he has led from the start. 199 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: He changed recruiting back at LSU. LSU is where they 200 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,679 Speaker 1: are at this moment in part because of how he 201 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 1: changed what was a messed up program at LSU and 202 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 1: had been for fifteen years. He changed how guys are 203 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 1: recruited because when I was covering recruiting back in the nineties, 204 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: nobody offered a player until they were right at the 205 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: end of their junior year or at the start of 206 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 1: their senior year, because all these college coaches says, oh, 207 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: we got to see senior tape. We have to see. 208 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: Nick Saban when he was at LSU, said let me 209 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: tell you something. He goes, if a guy can play, 210 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: I can spot him. He started offering guys when they 211 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: were sophomores. He got them into this LSU culture because 212 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: they were getting offers. Other schools didn't know what to do. 213 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: And suddenly LSU started stealing a lot of great players 214 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: that they had been losing to other schools. And so 215 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 1: they have built up this wealth of talent. And it's 216 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,439 Speaker 1: funny now that they finally found a quarterback their own. 217 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: Drew Brees so to speak, and Joe Burrow, you know 218 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: they're on the verge of a national championship, but how 219 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 1: different could life have been. I think Nick Saban would 220 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: have made it work with Drew. Agree with Nicks a 221 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: really good football oh and he would have done very 222 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: well in this league. It's just that decision and Nick 223 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: wanted Drew Brees and when he and the thing that 224 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: drove Nick out of this league was the lack of 225 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: control that he had. That's what took him out. He's 226 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,679 Speaker 1: he would have been a great coach in this league too, 227 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: all right. So let me put this one to you. 228 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: Who is the more surprising among the great quarterbacks that 229 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: we discussed? Peyton Manning was first overall pick. Peyton mann 230 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: and his dad was a great quarterback, and no surprise, 231 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: he was great. Tom Brady was a six round pick. 232 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: We all know that, we've heard that one hundred million times. 233 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: Drew Brees is six feet tall man. That's it. And 234 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 1: he was not a star from the start. We mentioned 235 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: his story and how he ascended and he found Sean 236 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 1: Payton and he found the right system. Who's the most 237 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: surprising star among Brady and Breesy? Drew Brees was the 238 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: second round pick. Drew Brees set all kind of records 239 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: at Purdue. Drew Brees had a body of work coming 240 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: out of college. Brady's body of work coming out of 241 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: Michigan was limited at best. That's why he's a sixth 242 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: round pick. And so the ascension that he made. Now, 243 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: Drew Brees was not in the right system in San 244 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: Diego to start with. And then you mentioned the injury. 245 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: The injury was significant last game of the regular season. 246 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: The injury was significant. It was more than a labor 247 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: I mean it was that the shoulder was the throwing shoulder. 248 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: Now where he's come back from that. But to me, 249 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: I think Tom Brady because of where he was taken 250 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: and then what he ascended to. And look, they're both 251 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame quarterbacks. But when Brady goes in, Drew 252 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: Brees will go into the Hall of Fame with a 253 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: lot of records. Brady will go in with records and 254 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: a lot of hardware, a lot of hardware. That's very true. 255 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 1: I mean it's really remarkable. But you know there are 256 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: I mean, Johnny Unitus was, you know, arguably in some 257 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: people's mind, the greatest quarterback of all time. I think 258 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: he was a nineteenth round draft pick the Steelers let 259 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: him go. Joe Montana was a third round draft pick. 260 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: Roger Staubach with the Cowboys spent five years. He was 261 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 1: technically a tenth round pick because he had to spend 262 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: five years in the Navy after winning the Heisman Trophy. 263 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 1: I mean, they are all these sorts of stories, along 264 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: with the Mannings who were top picks and other guys 265 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: who've ascended in that way. But which one for you? 266 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: I was going to say, Drew Brees despite the body 267 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: of work he had in college, college, as we know, 268 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: doesn't always translate to the pros, and the fact that 269 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: he had such a slow start and the laborm injury 270 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: and the way that he has fought through and being 271 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: a shorter quarterback comes with its own set of challenges. 272 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: It just does. And so the fact that he was 273 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: able to overcome these things, finding the right spot for 274 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: him and still with kind of a delayed start in 275 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: the league, get the records that he has obtained, that's 276 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: pretty impressive. Although in the back of my mind, I 277 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: still have that Combine picture of Tom Brady in my head, 278 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: and that makes him a survivor just because of that 279 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: picture where he's kind of Choby kind of yeah, I mean, 280 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: he looks like he's made out of Plato, but so 281 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: that makes him a survivor in his own right. No, 282 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: he was not TB twelve. He was TB twelve hundred picture. 283 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: I mean, Brady's one of the greatest stories in American 284 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: sports to do what he's done. In terms of the championships, 285 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: They've both done pretty well. I think I take Breeze 286 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: based on the fact that he is a six foot 287 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 1: pocket passer, which is really remarkable. He's now he has 288 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: mobility skills, but that's not really what he does. I 289 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: mean the whole thing is both stories are amazing, all right. 290 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 1: So it leads me to this coach and talking about 291 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: this game this weekend Titan Saints guy was twenty nine 292 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: to thirty. On Monday night football broke the touchdown record. 293 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,119 Speaker 1: I mean, they went thirty four to seven over Indie. 294 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,199 Speaker 1: Titans have got to get off to a good start. 295 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: They need to make something happen early. The Titans have 296 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: not scored a touchdown on their first possession since December 297 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: twenty second last year against Washington. How do they turn 298 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: that around? Why is that happening? How do they fix this? Well? 299 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: I mean there's there's no one answer, first of all, 300 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: as to why that's not happening. There are there are 301 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 1: ways to find out, but you would individually have to 302 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 1: go back to every game and look at it and 303 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:48,360 Speaker 1: dissect the first possession of every game. Offensively, there are reasons, 304 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: and they're there are very evident reasons, because the tape 305 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,160 Speaker 1: will tell you the whole story. But I would think 306 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:54,919 Speaker 1: that what you would find out is there is no 307 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 1: one consistent reason, okay, and so that that to me 308 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: is that's statistic. You know, it is hard to quantify 309 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 1: by just saying what is wrong? Okay, Now, clearly what 310 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,959 Speaker 1: needs to happen. They need to start faster, and they 311 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 1: need to incorporate a rhythm into this offense. And I'm 312 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 1: talking now in the present day, I'm talking this week 313 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 1: coming up. As they're able to get rhythm into it 314 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 1: as the game progresses. This is one of the this 315 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: is one of the fastest closing teams offensively, you know 316 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 1: going on. But there's not just one reason for it. 317 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,199 Speaker 1: And that's the most honest answer I can give you, 318 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: because when you if you go and look at first possessions, 319 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: there would be several reasons on each one of them. 320 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 1: You could find it, But then you'd have to decide 321 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,120 Speaker 1: does this affect this week? How much of it is mindset? Well, 322 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: I don't think it's any mindset, I really don't. I mean, 323 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,880 Speaker 1: I think it's it's it's something that you know has 324 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: functionally gone wrong individually with each of those series, each 325 00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: of those series, there will be a reason in each 326 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: one of them. You know, did we miss a third down? 327 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 1: All right? Did we did we have a penalty that 328 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 1: put us in first and twenty? Did? You know? There's reasons. 329 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: There's always reasons, and the table will tell you what 330 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 1: those reasons are. I have a question about opening drives 331 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: and is there a chance this just popped into my 332 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: head right now? So it's not a very put together thought, 333 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,479 Speaker 1: But is the opening drives something that could be used 334 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 1: as kind of a test balloon almost to see what 335 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:33,400 Speaker 1: their defense is doing and then make adjustments as opposed 336 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 1: to we need to score on this drive right now? 337 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 1: That question goes into the fact of scripting plays and 338 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 1: and and a lot of times when you when you 339 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: script plays, and people have a misconception about scripting plays, 340 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: You don't script plays just to follow it wrote right 341 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,399 Speaker 1: down the line. What you do to your point, Amy, 342 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 1: you script plays and put different personnel people in there 343 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: to find out what the defense, how they're going to 344 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: match you up, how they're going to play certain concepts, 345 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: because you have step building processes that you want to 346 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 1: use throughout the game based on how you see them 347 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: doing what they're going to do that day. Because you 348 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 1: can do all the preparation you want, and if you 349 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 1: get out there in a defensive coordinator, you know he's 350 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 1: been playing against this personnel group, say with his sub package, 351 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,880 Speaker 1: the whole time. But then when he plays against you, 352 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: the first thing you look at what we're in twelfth personnel. 353 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: Now he's got his base people out there. He's gonna 354 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: play me different today. So to that point, it is 355 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: all right. So I'm gonna ask this and there may 356 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 1: not be an answer, but it's sort of the flip 357 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 1: and you touched on it. Titans have been a slow 358 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: starting team, but they've outscored the opposition in the second 359 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: half by ninety eight points. So they are winning every 360 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: second half on average by a touchdown. Is there a 361 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: reason for that? Is there is a reason for that? Okay, 362 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 1: And there's one. There's not one that I can tell 363 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 1: you that they did this, this, and this. But the 364 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: reason and it goes with the question that aim he 365 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,719 Speaker 1: just asked, They really do a good job of dissecting 366 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: what's going on when the game's going on. Okay, because 367 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 1: when you're making game plans and you look at tape, 368 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 1: that's not necessarily what happens on game day. That's part 369 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: of the cat and mouse game between coordinators. And they 370 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 1: are really good. The Titans, both offensively and defensively, are 371 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,640 Speaker 1: really good at dissecting end game what is going on 372 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,199 Speaker 1: and being able to adjust off of that. It's all 373 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:28,439 Speaker 1: about adjustments, all right. Speaking of adjustments, the Titans have 374 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 1: made an adjustment at the outside linebacker position opposite Harold Landry. 375 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:37,959 Speaker 1: The starter there now is Kamala Correa. He has taken 376 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: over that starting job. He's up to four sacks on 377 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 1: the season. Now he's getting near forty tackles. The guy 378 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: keeps showing up and has played above what he did 379 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: last year and really what he did in the first 380 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: half of this season. So what is Karea doing well? 381 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:01,160 Speaker 1: Coached Mac That jumps out to you as to why 382 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 1: he has asserted himself over the last six weeks. Well, 383 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: the reason he was brought here in the first places, 384 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 1: because he was familiar with this defense to start with. 385 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,160 Speaker 1: And I think he's just he's found his slot within 386 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: this defense. And also I think that Dean Peas has 387 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: also found his strengths and what he can work with. 388 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: I think when he came in here early on Mike, 389 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: And it happens a lot when veteran players come to play. 390 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: They try to do too much. They try to do 391 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 1: too much rather than just doing your job and then 392 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: reacting off of that and then making plays beyond your 393 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 1: job after you've done your job. And so sometimes you 394 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: get so busy, you get ahead of yourself just because 395 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: you're trying to prove I was worth being brought in here. 396 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 1: You know, I've seen it. You know, I don't know 397 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,199 Speaker 1: necessarily that that's what happened with him, but I do 398 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 1: know this, he's a very consistent player. Now he's a 399 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: consistent player. And consistency. I mean, we talked about this, 400 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: I'll you know, some on a previous OTP about you know, 401 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: players that were ABC or D. What would you rather 402 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 1: have who would you rather have somebody that some days 403 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: was an A and some days was a D. Or 404 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 1: would you rather have somebody that was was a strong 405 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 1: B plus the whole time. Consistency. It's what you're looking for. 406 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 1: That's what he's done. Now. Is he the most improved 407 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: player for the Titans during the course of the twenty 408 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: nineteen season. I think you can make a case for that. 409 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,239 Speaker 1: I think you could also make a case for some 410 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 1: of the Titans offensive line players, maybe Roger Saffold. Roger 411 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: Saffold is another person who I think has really improved 412 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: this season as time has progressed. Your conversation with Saffold 413 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: on Mike Vrabel's TV show, and I think we're going 414 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 1: to run part of that on the pregame on Sundays 415 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 1: a matter of fact, fascinating about why things have come together. 416 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 1: He I mean he can't play well early? Nope, No, 417 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,360 Speaker 1: I mean he didn't And he says that right hum. 418 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 1: He full one admits that he wasn't playing well, and 419 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: he said that at the bye week he stopped and 420 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: did a full self scout. He looked at everything and 421 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 1: was able to diagnose some of the things that he 422 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: wasn't doing well and make those corrections. And so I 423 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:18,239 Speaker 1: asked him, what did you see and he said that 424 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,199 Speaker 1: he was still playing in the style that he was 425 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,400 Speaker 1: playing with the Rams and that he needed to change 426 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 1: his style of play, not do as much and just 427 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 1: play what the Titans were asking him to do. And 428 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: I thought that that was so interesting. But that goes 429 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: to show how your play can improve and change and 430 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: sometimes it's not that you're doing something wrong, you're just 431 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,919 Speaker 1: not doing what's needed. If that makes sense. Now, it 432 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: does make sense. I mean, I've got history with Roger 433 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: and when we came into the Rams when they were 434 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: still in Saint Louis. I mean, he was, you know, 435 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 1: he was one of their top players and he had 436 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 1: to switch gears, you know, as to what we were 437 00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 1: asking him to do offensively too. So I've seen him 438 00:24:59,920 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: go through this. But but he's an immense talent, is 439 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,160 Speaker 1: a He's an immense talent, and he's a smart guy. 440 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: He's a smart player, very self aware. And it doesn't 441 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: surprise me at all, you know that he said that. 442 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 1: I mean, I you know, I was. I was a 443 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: little bit surprised at how much he struggled early, but 444 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: I mean he's hit his stride now that left side 445 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 1: is doing something. Now, this is what they envisioned, right, absolutely, Mike, Absolutely, 446 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 1: when they paid the one and then when they signed 447 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: him to put with him because are the Titans a 448 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 1: left handed football team right now? They are right now 449 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 1: and they should be. But the thing about it is, 450 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 1: I mean, you talk about most improved player, My most 451 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: improved player improving from if we're talking about improvement being 452 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 1: defined as from where you started right to where you 453 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: are now, is Nate Davis really because he started at 454 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: the bottom and he missed so much teaching, He missed 455 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: so much time early on, he was way behind, he 456 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: was way behind the curve. And then he had to start. 457 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 1: He had to start. And so if you if you 458 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: just watch his progression from when he first came in 459 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: to the starting lineup and he struggled, because why wouldn't he. 460 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 1: I mean, let's just be honest. That's that's hard. That's 461 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 1: those five guys together is probably one of the most 462 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: technically hard positions to play in the National Football League, 463 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,239 Speaker 1: just because of everything that goes on and how much 464 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 1: they have to be in concert with one another. I 465 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: really he impresses me the way that he has come on. Well, 466 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,679 Speaker 1: he lined up at Charlotte in that stance that how 467 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 1: would you describe that stance? Frog does say he looked 468 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,360 Speaker 1: like a toad h So in essence, that was almost 469 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 1: symbolic of how far he had to come, because the 470 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: first thing he had to do is learn you I mean, 471 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 1: you can't line up like that in the Probs. And 472 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: so they had to start right there with him, and 473 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 1: then he missed five weeks. Yes, that's why I say 474 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,679 Speaker 1: I'm impressed with the development that he's done. And what 475 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: you know, what his the veteran players have helped him, 476 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 1: and the offensive line coaches have done excellent job with him. 477 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 1: What must the Titan do better against the Saints passing 478 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: game than they did against the Texans passing game? Well, 479 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: New Orleans passing game is completely different, Texans, completely different. 480 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 1: I mean, you've got to you know, we talked about 481 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: Drew Brees earlier, you know, in this in this podcast, 482 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 1: and Drew Brees is one of the best coverage manipulators 483 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: in the league. You know, he's right up there with 484 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning as far as his coverage manipulation, with his eyes, 485 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: with his shoulders, with his direction, with with with with 486 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 1: what he does, and he's deadly, deadly accurate. But his 487 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:33,479 Speaker 1: offense and and Sean Payton's offense, they they rely a 488 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: lot on it. They change a lot of personnel, they 489 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: displace him in a lot of different places. H but 490 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: his accuracy and it's hard. It's hard to sack him. 491 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: And you talked about earlier him being a pocket passer. 492 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: He is. But the thing about it, he gets rid 493 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 1: of the ball as quick as anybody historically has ever 494 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 1: gotten rid of the ball. That's his huge success. And 495 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: he understands immediately when he's he's seen enough coverages, he's 496 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 1: seen enough disguises, he's seen it. He studies. I mean, 497 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 1: you know, I talked to Greg Williams when I coached 498 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 1: with Greg Williams, and he was there, you know, with 499 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 1: Peyton when they won the Super Bowl. He said he's 500 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 1: never ever been around a player at any position that 501 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: worked as hard at his craft as what Drew Brees does. 502 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:22,880 Speaker 1: Everything mentally, physically, just constantly, constantly, constantly grinding it down 503 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: to the finite details. It's a different offense. This Houston's 504 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: offense is based around a quarterback that can that can move. 505 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: It can worry you to death, you know, all schedule plays. 506 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: This is an entirely different offense. You still have to 507 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: be able to sometimes be willing to say, they're going 508 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: to catch him, but you're gonna have to tackle him 509 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: and you can't allow the explosives. What he does is 510 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 1: he's patient enough to draw you in and then get 511 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: the explosives over the top and then plus I mean, 512 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 1: just like they have Hopkins. You know, New Orleans has 513 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: a wonderful main receiver, a wonderful main receiver, Michael Thomas 514 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 1: one hundred thirty two catches. Think about that, one hundred 515 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 1: thirty two catches. The guy is averaging nine and a 516 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: half catches a game. You know he's coming. They knew 517 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 1: on Monday Night football. Eleven targets, eleven catches. What in 518 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: the world, Well, I mean, first of all, he is 519 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: a precise route runner, he's long, he's strong, and then 520 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: his quarterback and he are in such perfect harmony that 521 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 1: and I know you watched the game last night, and 522 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: our listeners probably did too. The location of the ball 523 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:36,959 Speaker 1: when before he comes out of a break, or the 524 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 1: location of a ball when he's on the move is 525 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: exactly perfect most about ninety percent of the time. Just 526 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 1: about the percentage of completions that he had, which was 527 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 1: ninety seven. I asked Mike de Tilier from the MD 528 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: Draft report and Mike Vrabel, who was with Michael Thomas 529 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 1: at Ohio State, knew him when he was a freshman. 530 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: I asked both of them the same question. I said, 531 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: are you surprised that he has become what he has become? 532 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 1: And both of them said yes. They thought he was 533 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 1: a good prospect, they thought he was a good player. 534 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: Vrabel said, he has become more sudden as he's gotten older, 535 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 1: And I would think that probably doesn't happen a lot. Well, 536 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: I think it comes. It comes too with learning how 537 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: to take care of your body and do what you 538 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: need to do position specific In this league, I've seen 539 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: that happen because you know, some guys, some guys just 540 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 1: have it naturally that you know, no matter how much 541 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: they work on it, they would never improve it. Those 542 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 1: are wounded womb guys. Some guys have it in there, 543 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 1: but they haven't been perfecting it yet. But he's you know, 544 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 1: this guy is He's special. And again we talk about 545 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 1: the perfect marriage between Drew Brees and Sean Payton. This 546 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 1: is a perfect marriage between a quarterback in a receiver. Yeah, 547 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: but you asked what the Titans need to do That 548 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: secondary is going to have to figure out a way 549 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: to run with some of the Saints receivers. I mean 550 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 1: in Houston, they were going a little bit just full on, 551 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: they were. So the Titans secondary is going to have 552 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: to find a way to stay with these guys, stop 553 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: some of those explosive plays and hang with some of 554 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 1: these receivers who obviously have an incredible catch radius. So 555 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: you've got to be able to stop some of these guys. 556 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 1: And I think the Titans missed a Dorry Jackson a 557 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 1: lot against Houston. They're gonna have to find a way 558 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 1: to fill that void in the event that he can't go. 559 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: I would be happier if he played. I would be 560 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 1: happier if he played too. But let's let's just cover 561 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: all of our bases here. Yeah, well, I mean you 562 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 1: and and that's that's that's the that's the attrition monster 563 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 1: that everybody fights this time of year. You're you're a 564 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: different team when your best players aren't out there, But 565 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 1: you still have to win the game with the players 566 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 1: that are out there. Yep, preach coach Mac, it's time 567 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,719 Speaker 1: for what's brewing on the OTP, brought to you by 568 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: Duncan you spoke and we listened The Great Tay. Plant 569 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 1: based beyond Sausage sandwich from Duncan is now available at 570 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 1: Duncan locations nationwide with ten grams of Beyond Sausage plant 571 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 1: based protein in between a toasted English muffin and delicious 572 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: egg and cheese. Mmmmmm. Duncan's taking a new twist on 573 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 1: a classic, creating a brand new way for you to 574 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 1: start your day. So get up, get out, and get 575 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: into Duncan for a plant based boost to your mornings 576 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 1: and start today. The plant based way America runs on Duncan. 577 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 1: Coach Mac, what is brewing with you? Now? What's brewing 578 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 1: with me? I love the Heisman story of Burrow. I 579 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 1: just I love that story because when you really dig 580 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: deep and you look at it, I mean, this guy 581 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: got a second chance at a place that completely changed 582 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 1: and found a coach and a place that would completely 583 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 1: change what they're all about. Offensively, this is such a 584 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 1: big deviation at LSU as to what they've been historically. 585 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: They've historically been a run centered, pounded out play, great 586 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 1: defense out athleticia. They were willing to turn the keys 587 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: over to Joe Burrow, go out and hire Joe Brady 588 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 1: over an established coordinator and the jump of faith that 589 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: both of these guys made and had in each other 590 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: that culminated in this kid winning the Heisman Trophy by 591 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: a huge landslide victory. To me, that's a great, great 592 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: football story, and it's a great human interest story. It 593 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: really is. That's what's brilliant with me. What you know 594 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: about the league, Dave McGinnis, what are the chances that 595 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: he is the number one overall pick in the draft 596 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 1: on April twenty third, Well, there's still there's still some 597 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 1: vetting to do on all of this, but there's a 598 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: chance because here's what he's proven. He is proven that 599 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 1: he can run an offense, and not only run an offense. 600 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 1: He is deadly accurate. He's an accurate, accurate thrower. And 601 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 1: you you know he doesn't have that. He doesn't have that. 602 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 1: You're not going to look put the jugs gun on 603 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: him and say that's the strongest arm I've ever seen. 604 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 1: But I wouldn't bet against this kid, Amy Wells. The 605 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,279 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars are having a bad week, and that is 606 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 1: what's pretty They just won a game, still having a 607 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 1: bad week because the nfl PA filed a little grievance 608 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 1: against Jacksonville because Dante Fowler was charged seven hundred thousand 609 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: dollars in fines for not coming in during the offseason 610 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 1: and meeting with team doctors and team trainers to work 611 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: out an injury. So the NFLPA and their arbitration, their 612 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: arbitrator is at the arbitrator arbitrator. It's hard word. He 613 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:50,839 Speaker 1: called that seven hundred thousand dollars a blatant overreach in 614 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 1: terms of saying basically, he was saying that this is 615 00:34:55,040 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 1: not something that is covered in what play years need 616 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 1: to be doing in the off season. They are not 617 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: required to do this. All offseason things are voluntary. You 618 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: cannot charge this man seven hundred thousand dollars for not 619 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 1: coming in. Let me read you the last sentence or 620 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 1: two Fowler one, Fowler one. He doesn't have to pay 621 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 1: this money. In the last two years, more than twenty 622 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 1: five percent of grievances filed by players have been against 623 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: the Jaguars. You, as players may want to consider this 624 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 1: when you have a chance to select your next club. 625 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 1: How do you think that this is going to impact 626 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars during free agency? I think that's going 627 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 1: to be a nightmare. I think you are going really 628 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 1: well down there. That's Coughlin though, right, yes, and and 629 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,879 Speaker 1: and and to her point, and she's one hundred percent right. Well, 630 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:51,879 Speaker 1: you heard what Fowler said when when they ask him, 631 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 1: he said they hated me. Yeah, all right, And so 632 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: there's a lot of dysfunction going on down there. And 633 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: the only way that you can really write that dysfunction 634 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 1: is you got to take a broom to it. And 635 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 1: that may be what happens. But like for any player 636 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 1: who has heard this from a buddy, from an NFLPA rep, 637 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: from anyone that's going to be in his brain. Did 638 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,880 Speaker 1: you see what Jalen Ramsey tweeted out? I told you 639 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 1: that's what he tweeted. Well, here's the thing. And to 640 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: your point about a players, maybe they all hear about it. Yeah, 641 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 1: the great buying in the National Football League amongst coaches 642 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 1: and players is really tight and everybody, everybody knows what 643 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 1: goes on everywhere. But that, as I said, they may 644 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 1: take a broom to that thing, because that's the only 645 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: way you can rectify that. You got to burn it 646 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,839 Speaker 1: down and start over. You just have to. Here's what's 647 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: brewing with me. Why are we surprised by a J. Brown. 648 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: Didn't we have history? Didn't we know? Shouldn't we have known? 649 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 1: Based on one fact? I will tell you we should 650 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 1: have known. You knew A J. Brown was a baseball player, right, 651 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 1: You knew he was drafted by the San Diego Padres 652 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 1: because they thought he was a big time outfield prospect. 653 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 1: Do you know that he was one of only two 654 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:11,839 Speaker 1: players that have been selected for the under Armor All 655 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 1: Star Football and Baseball Game. The other one Kyler Murray. 656 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: I did not know that another. So that's pretty good. 657 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 1: The first two guys ever selected to both of the 658 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 1: high school All Star Games for the All Americans. Kyler 659 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: Murray and A J. Brown.
