1
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: Welcome inside with the insiders. Alongside Ian Rapaport, Judy Matista,

2
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 1: Mike Garafalo, I am Tom Pelicero. All thirty two teams

3
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: have officially reported to training camp the road the Super

4
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:21,880
Speaker 1: Bowl fifty nine in New Orleans.

5
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 2: I declare it open.

6
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 1: We got a ton to get into throughout the course

7
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 1: of the next hour. Here we got holdout and hold

8
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,159
Speaker 1: in drama. In San Francisco. It's not just Brandon Aiyuk anymore.

9
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 1: Davante Adams the Raiders still for now wide receiver, he

10
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,480
Speaker 1: spoke to the media today. We will hear from Davante.

11
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 1: We've also got rebirth of sorts in LA for Jim

12
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 1: Barbaugh and the Chargers. And we've also got the raining

13
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,240
Speaker 1: NFL MVP back on the field.

14
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:51,639
Speaker 2: That's right.

15
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,280
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, who had missed the previous three days because

16
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: of illness, returning.

17
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 2: To practice today.

18
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: Whatever he had, I hope it want contagious, as he

19
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: high fives all those kids on the way out to

20
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: the field. Elsewhere in the AFC, Northeast Steelers one of

21
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: the last four teams to report the training camp today,

22
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson throwing it back to twenty twelve with that

23
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,479
Speaker 1: tight buzz cut right there as he arrives in La

24
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 1: trobe I. Meanwhile, Aaron Rodgers also back on the field

25
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 1: in a training camp setting for the first time in

26
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: training camp since that Achilles' injury last year. But while

27
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 1: you're here, Aaron, and you're talking to the media, you

28
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: want to explain to us what was up with that

29
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: trip to Egypt, to cousin to miss Mini camp.

30
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 3: I originally scheduled it based on the previous year's schedule,

31
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 3: which had us out I believe by the ninth or tenth.

32
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 3: So once I saw the schedule, I was trying to

33
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 3: move some things around. I just didn't didn't happen. Yeah,

34
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 3: I had a great talk with Robert. Obviously he wanted

35
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 3: me to be there, and I knew the consequences if

36
00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 3: I wasn't going to be there. The reaction is what

37
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 3: it is.

38
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,279
Speaker 4: What were they did you get fined?

39
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, Aaron Rodgers find around one hundred thousand dollars at

40
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 1: the maximum that you can find somebody under the collective

41
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 1: bargain agreement. Ian you were out of the home studio,

42
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 1: you were actually there at practice for the Jets. You

43
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: heard what Aaron Rodgers had to say on mini camp

44
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,079
Speaker 1: and otherwise what jumped out at you from the quarterbacks

45
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: forts Well.

46
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 5: First of all, it was really fascinating to hear him

47
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,079
Speaker 5: go through in great detail everything about his Egypt trip,

48
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 5: including the fact that camels are not necessarily nice, which

49
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 5: I didn't know, but I would say from everything I've

50
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 5: read that's probably fair harsh, but fair. Also learned that

51
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers knew he was going to get the reaction

52
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 5: and kind of did it anyway, which really sums up

53
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 5: a lot of the things he does and really explains

54
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 5: why he is a singular person in the NFL, kind

55
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,119
Speaker 5: of doing things as.

56
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 2: He sees fit.

57
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 5: Also from a football sense, we saw some things. First

58
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 5: of all, watching him throw the ball. This guy still

59
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 5: throws a beautiful football, hitting targets down the field, throwing

60
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 5: it into the net while some of his backups were struggling.

61
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 2: Arm looks really, really good.

62
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 5: The other thing that kind of stood out here and look,

63
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 5: we heard the whole fine explanation we heard of Minichamp

64
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 5: and all that. What I really liked from his press

65
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 5: conference was him describing why he pulled a couple players

66
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 5: aside why he pulled Garrett Wilson, Malakai Courtly aside, going

67
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 5: in great depth, not just to the players, which we

68
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 5: see a lot, but to the media. What he saw

69
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 5: in these guys' routes, how he's going to approach it

70
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 5: with them watching film, what adjustments he may make. One

71
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 5: Courtley wasn't even in the play. Rogers pulled him aside

72
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 5: and said, if we do this play when you're in,

73
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 5: here's the release you need to take. It was an

74
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 5: incredible attention to detail and really explains why with all

75
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 5: the other stuff guys we talk about with Aaron Rodgers,

76
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 5: he is a special, special mind and a special football player.

77
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 6: Well, this is the whole Aaron Rodgers package, right, And

78
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 6: the Jets would have been naive if they didn't think

79
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 6: they were getting the whole Aaron Rodgers package. Sometimes he

80
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 6: does things that she's saying, hmm, okay, not sure about that,

81
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 6: but then he also throws those passes. And then I

82
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 6: thought another thing he talked about today ian when he

83
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 6: talked about he thinks Garrett Wilson has the ability to

84
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 6: be one of the top receivers, if not the top

85
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 6: receiver in the entire NFL, and he talked about what

86
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 6: it takes to be that level player and of course,

87
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 6: he compared him to the person he thinks is now

88
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 6: the best receiver in the NFL, DeVante Adams, and he said, like,

89
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 6: it's not just the talent, it's the attention to detail,

90
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 6: it's the He said, Garrett Wilson has the passion and

91
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 6: he's got the skill, but it's also how you practice, right,

92
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 6: It's the desire to dominate.

93
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 2: He said.

94
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 6: DeVante Adams always wanted to dominate. And he said, Garrett

95
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 6: Wilson has the passion, has the skill. Now he's got

96
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 6: to practice that way. He's got to bring that every day.

97
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 6: And I think that's Aaron Rodgers' way of sort of

98
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 6: spurring Garrett Wilson. Right, he is going to raise the

99
00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 6: bar of expectations for Garrett Wilson. This is that's how

100
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 6: he's going to motivate his teammates. And again, this is

101
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 6: part of the Aaron Rodgers experience. Sometimes it makes you

102
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 6: shake your head. A lot of the times it makes

103
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 6: you want Aaron Rodgers to be your starting quarterback.

104
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 7: You see that quote there on the bottom of the

105
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 7: screen Jets one of eight to twelve teams. He said

106
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 7: that could win the Super Bowl, which he was called

107
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 7: on by one of the members of the media there

108
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 7: and said, did I say six to eight last year?

109
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 7: Well take the twelve now. He said, that's the parody

110
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 7: that the NFL is looking for. But I agree with him.

111
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 7: Here's the other thing that I agree with him on.

112
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 7: And this is why I don't want to jinx the

113
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 7: Jets because I got a lot of friends who are

114
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 7: Jets fans. I'm not trying to do that to them.

115
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 7: They've been through enough. But here's what I agree. And

116
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 7: when I look at this team, this team's better than

117
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 7: last year's team. Now, we have no idea what last

118
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 7: year's team would have been because it all went to

119
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 7: the ground in four place. But I think they've done

120
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 7: a better job of building this offensive line on paper,

121
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 7: Morgan Moses and Tyron Smith coming in as veteran tackles,

122
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 7: Olu Fashanu coming in the first round pick there to

123
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 7: help that offensive line. Rogers then went down the depth

124
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 7: chart on the defensive side of the ball and talked

125
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 7: about how good they are at all three levels. I

126
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 7: agree with that. Sauce Gardner certainly has shown us what

127
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 7: he can do at the cornerback position, only getting better

128
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 7: as a football player and a golfer. By the way,

129
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 7: so when I look at this team here and I

130
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 7: see Rogers, what he sees, Yeah, there's a reason to

131
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 7: be excited. And as long as he stays healthy, I

132
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 7: agree with that, and I'd even put him if he's

133
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 7: shrunk the number to six.

134
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 2: Eight, I'd put him in there too.

135
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 1: The beauty of the Aaron Rodgers experience, as Judy put it,

136
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 1: is we just talked for five minutes about that team

137
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 1: and really didn't come up that he's a close to

138
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,359
Speaker 1: forty year old guy who's coming off of torn achilles

139
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 1: and played four snaps last season. All expectations right now though,

140
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: when the Jets get rolling here, he is going to

141
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: be full go to do everything. So is the Crosstown

142
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 1: Giants quarterback Daniel Jones, who has been cleared now for

143
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 1: eleven on eleven. Certainly a positive development as he comes

144
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 1: off of his torn acl isn't it, Brian Dable.

145
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 2: I think they get, you know, as we go.

146
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 8: So he's getting all the reps today, he'll get them

147
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 8: with the ones every day. If we need to pull

148
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 8: them back for whatever reason maintenance, then we'll talk about that,

149
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 8: you know, after every practice. But you know, right now

150
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 8: he's gonna be in there every snap that the ones

151
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 8: are in.

152
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: More NFC East news. The Eagles a long time defensive

153
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: stalwart Brandon Graham announcing today the year fifteen in the

154
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 1: NFL for him will be his last. Of course, he

155
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: was part of the Super Bowl winning team. He was

156
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: part of the other Eagles team that went to the

157
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Only two other players remaining for the twenty

158
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 1: ten draft. It's Texans defensive end Jerry Hughes and forty

159
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: nine Ers left tackle Trent Williams. More on Trent in

160
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: just a little bit here. The Cowboys also have arrived

161
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: to camp, including their tight end Jake Ferguson.

162
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 2: There is though, some.

163
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: Drama, as there usually is in some form or fashion

164
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: around Dallas, as they head to ox Start for basically

165
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:00,040
Speaker 1: a month, a really long remote training camp here that

166
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: they're optimistic is going to pay dividends for them down

167
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: the line. Ian Ceedee Lamb certainly has been a headliner

168
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 1: throughout this offseason. We have spoken a great deal about him,

169
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: and now we at least know what he's doing or

170
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 1: not doing.

171
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 2: For the early stages of training camp.

172
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 5: Cede Lamb officially a holdout all of his teammates flew

173
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 5: to oxnarder some in the case of Dak Prescott drove

174
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 5: to Oxnard. Cede Lamb not among them, not showing up

175
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 5: at training camp just like he did for mining camp.

176
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 2: And there's a clear way to show a team that.

177
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 5: You are not having with your contractual situation and you

178
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 5: mean business, it is to not show up to training

179
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 5: camp and incur the fines and everything that comes with

180
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 5: the media firestorm, everything from the fans, all of that.

181
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 5: Ceedee Lamb is doing all of it. So where are

182
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 5: we with the Ceede Lamb contract situation?

183
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 4: Now?

184
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 5: We did get some clarity with the justin Jefferson contract

185
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 5: situations clear where the highest paid receiver is four years,

186
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 5: thirty five million dollars per year. Cowboys know that the

187
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,719
Speaker 5: market is very clear unclear right now, Ceede Lamb is

188
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 5: fighting to be the highest paid or whether he wants

189
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,679
Speaker 5: to be just under. And there's so much here. It's

190
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 5: not just is he the highest paid. It's also termed

191
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 5: we said Jefferson do a four year deal. Cowboys sometimes

192
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 5: like longer deals. Where does that fit in with what

193
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 5: Cede Lamb wants. There's so much here, but this we know.

194
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 5: The Cowboys have faced many high profile holdouts from Deeke

195
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 5: Elliott most recently Zach Martin.

196
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 2: Eventually deals have got done. Ceedee Lamb.

197
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 5: The Cowboys and the fans hope that is eventually the

198
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 5: case with this one as well.

199
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is in training camp at any time that

200
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 1: the Cowboys also been working to try to see if

201
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 1: they can get a deal done with him as well.

202
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 2: Thank you Ian Moore.

203
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,119
Speaker 1: From you in just a little bit, you also summarized

204
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: some news out of Santa Clara earlier today where it's

205
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: not just Brandon Aiyuk looking for a new contract, Kyle

206
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 1: Shanahan telling reporters the Pro Bowl left tackle Trent Williams,

207
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,199
Speaker 1: who is not seen on the field as they kicked

208
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: off the practice portion of training camp today, is not

209
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: practicing because of contract reasons. So now you've got two

210
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 1: of their cornerstone players, a guy in Trey Williams, Kyle

211
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 1: Shanahan Mike has called the best left tackle in the NFL. Well,

212
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: he's gotten paid like that to this point. Now Tret

213
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: Williams would like to get paid one more time.

214
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 7: Well let's start without Yuke, because I thought the answer

215
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 7: from Kyle Shanahaner's press conference was great. He says, I

216
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 7: don't know what it means. It just means his back

217
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 7: is sore and his neck a sour. So he's going

218
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 7: to stay out of practice, which obviously is a hold in,

219
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 7: and so we expected it and I understand the situation fully, So.

220
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, we've got a hold in here.

221
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 7: The old my back hurts, which you really can't prove

222
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 7: on an X ray or an MRI. So that's a

223
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 7: good one for Ayuk there as he makes his contract push. Now,

224
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 7: Trent Williams, we didn't know about this one till today,

225
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 7: didn't show up for camp at all.

226
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 2: So that's a hold out. He can be fined.

227
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 7: Ayuk as a hold in technically can't be fine, but

228
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 7: Williams can be fine. But apparently he's willing to put

229
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 7: that on the line and any money that he would miss.

230
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,559
Speaker 7: Here to make a point, that his twenty point eight

231
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,719
Speaker 7: million this season, which is not guaranteed, but he'll get it.

232
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 7: His twenty three point three to five next year, which

233
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 7: is not guaranteed, no guarantee obviously that he would get it.

234
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 7: Looking for a sweetener here, I mean he averaged it out.

235
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:15,679
Speaker 2: You look at his deal.

236
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 7: It was in the low twenties, right, Now today, Sewell

237
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 7: is the highest paid offensive tackle in football at twenty

238
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 7: eight million. Now it's hard to compare the two. Trent

239
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,719
Speaker 7: Williams is approaching forty penay, Sewell's going to play in

240
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 7: the league for ten to fifteen more years maybe, so

241
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 7: it's hard to compare those two.

242
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 2: But this is how you know players operate.

243
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 7: Sometimes they see these deals being done and saying, hey,

244
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 7: my number was way below that, Judy.

245
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,199
Speaker 2: It's time for me to be rectified.

246
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 7: He had a tough time in Washington when it came

247
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 7: to relating to the front office. Trent Williams wants to

248
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 7: get a better solution here with the forty nine.

249
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 6: Well, just a reminder of Trent Williams and when he

250
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 6: wants to be paid. You mentioned in Washington in twenty nineteen,

251
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 6: Trent Williams held out almost half the season. He held

252
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 6: out until right before the trade deadline in a contract

253
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 6: and then he came in. So this is a player

254
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,439
Speaker 6: who is willing to stand on principle for something he believes.

255
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 2: He should have.

256
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 6: These are sort of rich people problems what the San

257
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 6: Francisco forty nine ers have right now. This is what

258
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 6: happens when you have a roster stocked with top players

259
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 6: at multiple positions. They want to be paid like top

260
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 6: players in the league. And we've seen this over the

261
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 6: last few years, right Nick Bosa, Christian McCaffrey, Deebo, Samuel,

262
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 6: You're going to have a brock Party contract coming up

263
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 6: in a year or so. And now you've got Trent

264
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 6: Williams and Brandon Ayuk. It's rich people problems. They are

265
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,839
Speaker 6: problems nonetheless, and John Lynch is going to be really busy.

266
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: Another note that I think is important here is hold ins.

267
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 1: Isn't a thing like that doesn't exist. There's not some

268
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: qualifier in the CBA about you can hold in. Basically,

269
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 1: hold in means you show up to not get fine

270
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: and the team chooses not to find you even though

271
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: you're refusing to practice. This didn't really happen like ten

272
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: years ago. Yeah, sometimes you come up with it's my neck,

273
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: my back. I'll let you filling the rest of the blanks.

274
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: The point is, at some point the forty nine ers

275
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 1: can say, hey, you're not practicing, we're gonna start finding you.

276
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: What teams do with a Jordan love or what's going

277
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 1: on with Tua tongue of BAILI is basically saying, Okay,

278
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna give this some time. We know we got

279
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 1: to work on things. Let's try to go forward here

280
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 1: on a good page. All right, Coming up after this,

281
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: we got a lot more drama, a lot more news

282
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 1: around the NFL.

283
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 2: But first let's talk to a guy who.

284
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 1: Now he made some news himself, won a whole lot

285
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: of football games back in the day, Dallas Clark going

286
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: into the Colts Ring of Honor? What does he think

287
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 1: about this year's iteration? And Anthony Richardson we'll ask him

288
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 1: next on The Insiders. The final four teams reporting to

289
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,840

Speaker 2: Hawks, and the Falcons.

291

Speaker 1: As Kirk is repping his new city. Anthony Richardson and

292
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: the Colts also in the house checking into Westfield, Indiana.

293
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: Good news from Colts GM Chris Ballard. Who's says the Richardson,

294
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 1: who missed most of his rookie season because of a

295
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 1: shoulder injury. The required surgery has no restrictions. He's good

296
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 1: to go. Get even twirled the baton another Colts snooze,

297

00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 2: Dallas, let's start off just with this honor.

304
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 1: I always think to you, as one of those those

305
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: core tenets of those great Colts teams that we saw

306
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 1: a super Bowl winning team, what does it mean to you?

307
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 2: Your name is going to be part of that permanently

308
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 2: in the stadium.

309
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 4: Unreal.

310
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 9: You know, when you get in this league, it's just

311
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 9: one of those things that you know, you're just trying

312
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 9: to survive the next day. And as as a rookie,

313
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 9: when I stepped in that huddle that first you know,

314
00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 9: we had we had a training camp the week after

315
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 9: the draft, so I mean, you go from having no

316
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 9: clue who you're going to be with, get drafted by

317
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 9: the Colts and Bill Pullian, and then seven days later,

318
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 9: I'm in this huddle with probably five potential you know

319
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 9: probably you know through three or three Hall of famers

320
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 9: too to come and you're sitting there like why am

321
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 9: I here?

322
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 4: Like what did you do?

323
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 9: What did you need eleven on the field, just so

324
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 9: we're you know, so we're legal here, but uh so

325
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 9: obviously just trying to get a piece of you know,

326
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 9: of the pie, if you will, or a ball thrown

327
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 9: every now and then to the Ring of Honor. I mean,

328
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 9: that's just like something I had no clue that would

329
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 9: be even possible considering the weapons we had. But to

330
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 9: find that niche and to find uh the utilization to

331
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 9: be used and kind of re re kind of ads

332
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 9: the tight end position, and you know, it was pretty special.

333
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 5: We obviously, you guys want a ton in the coach

334
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 5: with a you know, I think it's fair to say

335
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 5: some difficult years recently now headed back up in one

336
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 5: of the guys tass with leading that team back to

337
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 5: winning ways. Anthony Richardson, you saw him walking in the building.

338
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 5: We saw him in very brief glimpses last year. Obviously

339
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 5: someone who is incredibly talented. I'm curious, from what you've

340
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 5: seen of the Colts current quarterback, what do you like

341
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 5: and as you watch some of these young guys, you like,

342
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 5: all right, be interesting to catch passes for him? I

343
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 5: like to catch passes from that guy. How do you

344
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 5: kind of how do you kind of view all that?

345
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 9: Yeah, well, I think Anthony, you know, I think going

346
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 9: in that draft, everyone was just kind of I mean,

347
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 9: it was a toss up, right, He's an athlete, you know, athlete,

348
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 9: didn't really start a whole bunch of games for the

349
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 9: for the Gators, and just had a lot of question marks,

350
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 9: a lot of I would say, red flakes, just just unproven, right,

351
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 9: you know.

352
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 4: And so but Chris Ballard in his you know, just.

353
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 9: Savbiness and his way of kind of you know, kind

354
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 9: of taking back some layers and seeing what guys are

355
00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 9: truly made of.

356
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 4: I think we were seeing a lot of that potential.

357
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,439
Speaker 9: I think each week he was just getting a little

358
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,919
Speaker 9: more and more comfortable and remind you like quarterbacks usually

359
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 9: take you know, you know a year, you know, a

360
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 9: year and a half. You know that you know they

361
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 9: got a little longer leashed, you know, maybe you know,

362
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 9: to make those mistakes, you know. I think Peyton Manning,

363
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 9: you know, I know he hates that I'm bringing this up,

364
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,399
Speaker 9: but I think he still holds the record for rookie

365
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 9: quarterback for the most interceptions. So you know, Anthony certainly

366
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,959
Speaker 9: wasn't doing that right. He wasn't throwing the ball around

367
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 9: and just giving it to the other team. He was

368
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 9: making plays early, and he was just getting more and

369
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 9: more comfortable, and unfortunately the injury. So I think Colts fans,

370
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,680
Speaker 9: myself included, are very optimistic and I think we saw

371
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 9: a lot coming out of the gates early and hopefully

372
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,199
Speaker 9: just keep building on that. And I think he's going

373
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 9: to just keep getting more confidence and more comfortable each week.

374
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 1: It's so interesting because the greatest quarterback in Colt's history,

375
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,160
Speaker 1: maybe the greatest, one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time,

376
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning, played literally the polar opposite game.

377
00:17:58,320 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 2: Like there's a ven diagram.

378
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,440
Speaker 1: I don't how much over laughter between and Anthony Richardson,

379
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 1: but when nobody was expecting it, Dallas Tom Moore ever

380
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 1: like put in, you know, just some quarterback keepers something

381
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 1: just completely keep everybody lapping out there.

382
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 9: But here's the thing, you know, I will say, uh,

383
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 9: Anthony and Richardson was also named a captain as a rookie,

384
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 9: you know, and that's something that you know, I think

385
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 9: that speaks volume, so you know you have to also

386
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:25,919
Speaker 9: include that.

387
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 4: But yes, Peyton was definitely not going.

388
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 9: To be called a quarterback sneak or a or a

389
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 9: tush push or you know anything like that.

390
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 4: We were going to throw that dang ball or hand

391
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 4: it off the edge and let him do his damage.

392
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,880
Speaker 4: But uh, but and just uh that's.

393
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 9: What the weapon that Anthony brings h to the table

394
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 9: that obviously Peyton you know kind of you know, probably

395
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 9: minored in. Uh, you know, it was the creativitiness of

396
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 9: us use his feet, moving the pocket and things like that.

397
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 9: That's that wasn't his game. Obviously did very well without

398
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 9: having that part of his game. But Anthony Richardson can

399
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 9: definitely extend plays and move the pocket and just be

400
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 9: a be a force, uh with his feet and arm,

401
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 9: which is obviously kind of the go you know, kind

402
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 9: of the go to quarterback these days.

403
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 5: That was you were in Iowa tight end and since

404
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 5: you came into the league and lit it up for

405
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 5: years and years, there's been a lot of them. I mean,

406
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,879
Speaker 5: just to name a couple, uh, TJ. Hockinson, you got

407
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 5: George Kittle, you got Sam Laporta, You've got plenty of others.

408
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 5: No fans, is there an Iowa tight End group chat

409
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 5: and of those guys, who do you like the most?

410
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 4: There is not a group chat, but uh, I like

411
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 4: the most.

412
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 9: I love that you're actually asking me which kid I

455
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 9: a little page from his playbook there, and it's so

456
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 9: fun to see how the tight ends position has revolutionized

457
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 9: the game, has made it, you know, a popular position.

458
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 9: You know, kids are growing up wanting to be Travis Kelsey,

459
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 9: George Kittle, where before it is like, ah, too big

460
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 9: to be a receiver, too small to be alignment, Why.

461
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:27,439
Speaker 4: Don't you go play tight end? But you're like, oh,

462
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 4: I don't want to play tight end.

463
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:28,919
Speaker 2: You know.

464
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 9: Now now kids are repping you know this tight ends jerseys,

465
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 9: and that's that is great for the game and it's

466
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:37,320

483
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 1: time last year, somewhere on that illustrious list, although it

484
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: appears that he's trying to uh to blend into the woodwork.

485
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 1: He talked about more things though than the new eminem

486
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: style hair here. He's also coming off a pretty significant

487
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: injury as he heads into twenty twenty four.

488
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was happy with today.

489
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 10: Uh, you know, still feeling it out. You's still have

490
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 10: some throws where it's it's like, well, what did that

491
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 10: look like? It usually goes where I wanted to, but

492
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 10: sometimes it doesn't spin the way I want it to.

493
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 10: So we're still working through that. But I feel really

494
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 10: good about where I'm at. I feel like I kind

495
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,119
Speaker 10: of figured something out towards the end of the practice.

496
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 10: They're an individual, so looking forward to exploring that a

497
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 10: little more.

498
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,239
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Insiders, Tom Pellicero joined now by

499
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,400
Speaker 1: our friend Bridget Condon. Bridget, there's a lot to talk

500
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 1: about there, and I liked it. When Burrow's answering real

501
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 1: football questions, he still can't help, but just you know,

502
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 1: kind of give it one of these, like, Hey, in

503
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 1: case you haven't noticed, it's something different up here. Well,

504
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 1: what's going on in Joe Burrow world?

505
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 2: Right now? Tom?

506
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:29,479
Speaker 4: He got bored.

507
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 11: He said he was talking to Bj Hill. BJ was like, hey, man,

508
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 11: if you buzz your hair and diet blonde, I'll do

509
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:36,680
Speaker 11: the same. All eyes are on BJ.

510
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 2: But Tom, I just have.

511
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 11: To say football is back, So hopefully you don't get

512
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 11: bored because I please, please please don't dye your hair blonde,

513
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 11: bleach blonde. Please not until I don't know, Super Bowl

514
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 11: or something like that.

515
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 2: But I've been accused.

516
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 1: I've been accused of frosted tips on a number of occasions.

517
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:53,160
Speaker 2: But this is all natural.

518
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: A little bit of sun every now and then just

519
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 1: kind of gives me some natural highlights.

520
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 4: Bridge.

521
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 11: Okay, Well, let's I don't know, I don't know if

522
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 11: we're going to talk about the hair. I'm sure we'll

523
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 11: talk about it every single day till the season starts,

524
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,439
Speaker 11: because that's where really let's talk about some football, all right.

525
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,880
Speaker 11: One thing that Joe Burrow hasn't done He's never played

526
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 11: in the preseason with bleach blonde hair. He's also never

527
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 11: completed a pass in the preseason. He's only played three

528
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 11: preseason snaps. Remember, he had that COVID year in twenty

529
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 11: twenty where they canceled the preseason, then he was coming

530
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 11: back from an acl then he had the appendectomy, and

531
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 11: then the cash strain last season.

532
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:24,439
Speaker 9: So maybe this is the.

533
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 11: Year that he completes his first preseason past. He spoke

534
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 11: today and said he wants to get those reps in

535
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 11: the preseason because he wants this team to be their

536
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 11: best in the beginning of the season. The Bengals have

537
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,120
Speaker 11: started five and four the past three seasons, then they've

538
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 11: gone on those runs. Of course, last season, Joe Burrow

539
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 11: was hurt, so they didn't make the playoffs, but they

540
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 11: want to be able to have that success starting out

541
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 11: of the gate at Week one and not have to

542
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 11: play catch up. He also talked about having t Higgins

543
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,120
Speaker 11: back on the field and he said it was great

544
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,680
Speaker 11: to have him back and Tea understands how big of

545
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,159
Speaker 11: a season this is for this Bengals team. It's so

546
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 11: big that Joe Burrow says, the only thing that he's

547
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 11: thinking about is team oriented goals at this point in

548
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 11: his career.

549
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,479
Speaker 1: You mentioned all those injuries, bridget that Joe Burrow has

550
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 1: gone through in recent years. Here, Rappaport and I the

551
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: last two years have been in Cincinnati for back together weekend.

552
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 1: Burrow has not practiced, nor have we talked to him

553
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,119
Speaker 1: either of those years because he's missed time. I'm not

554
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 1: there this year. I'm in detroitum Batgirt Saturday. I'm not

555
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,439
Speaker 1: saying Jared Goff has to watch out. I'm just saying

556
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 1: maybe it's me.

557
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 2: I'm here so hopefully you can get here. In LA.

558
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 1: The Chargers certainly a lot of new things going on,

559
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: and for Jim Harbaugh, it feels like a very special event.

560
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:36,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

561
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:41,160
Speaker 12: I mean there's there's definitely changes, but yeah, I mean

562
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 12: just the way it feels. I mean, it feels like

563
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 12: New Year's Day. You know, it feels like being born.

564
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 12: Heels like coming out of the womb. You know, it's

565
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 12: like you're in there and it's comfortable and it's safe,

566
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 12: and now you're out. You're born. The lights are on,

567
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 12: you know, it's bright, chaos, people people looking at you,

568
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 12: people talking at you, and just feels good to have

569
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 12: it happened.

570
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,080
Speaker 1: As soon as I heard that quote, I thought it

571
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,160
Speaker 1: sounded familiar, and credit to Mike Garafolo for doing some googly.

572
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 1: Jim Harbad did have another coming out of the womb

573
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,440
Speaker 1: tangent ten years ago while he was the forty nine

574
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 1: ers head coach here, so a lot going on in

575
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,640
Speaker 1: his head. Certainly is a rebirth bridget for the Chargers,

576
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: for Jim Harbaugh in a new facility. A lot of

577
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 1: positive vibes out there in La Tom.

578
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 11: I don't necessarily remember coming out of the womb. I

579
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 11: don't know if it's something with my mental Maybe you

580
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 11: remember it clearly Jim Harbaugh does, But like, let's roll

581
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,160
Speaker 11: with that. I guess sure, Like this is a rebirth

582
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 11: for the Los Angeles Chargers. They had their first practice today.

583
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 11: They cut the ribbon at their new facility. They want

584
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 11: to change the way that they've done things. They've only

585
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,880
Speaker 11: made the postseason once in the past five seasons. They

586
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 11: want to change that. So how do they do it?

587
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 1: Well?

588
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 11: It starts now in camp with Justin Herbert beginning to

589
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,120
Speaker 11: build chemistry with new targets. Remember he lost his top

590
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 11: three targets from season and Mike Williams Keenan Allen and

591
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,639
Speaker 11: Austin Eckler. One guy who's hoping to step up is

592
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 11: Quentin Johnston, who Jim Harbaugh actually he had a lot

593
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 11: to say about him today. He said he feels like

594
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 11: he's gotten a bad rep. A lot of people, you know,

595
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 11: want to talk about Quinton Johnston and him dropping passes.

596
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 11: He actually only dropped two passes of the sixty five

597
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 11: targets last season.

598
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:21,360
Speaker 2: But this is interesting.

599
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 11: He averaged less than one yard per route ran last season. Also,

600
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 11: he had the fewest average yards of any of separation

601
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 11: of any rookie wide receiver, so he's really trying to

602
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,399
Speaker 11: make the change. But Jim Harbaugh said on the record

603
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,199
Speaker 11: today that he's as good as anybody and he's going

604
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 11: to create a lot of problems for teams. So all eyes,

605
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 11: of course will be on that wide receiver corps, especially

606
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 11: Quinton Johnston this training camp.

607
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 1: Bridget, thank you very much. Look forward to chatting with

608
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 1: you again soon. That AFC West is a fascinating division

609
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 1: from top to bottom. Obviously the two time defending champion

610
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs, but there's also a lot going on

611
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: in law this Vegas not all necessarily focused on football.

612
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 1: Davante Adams has been through a lot, especially during a

613
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: frustrating twenty twenty three season.

614
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 13: I like to think it's a fresh slate and I

615
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 13: got a whole new mentality, whole new you know, I

616
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 13: didn't come into last year, you know, with a in

617
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 13: a in a bad place. It was just kind of

618
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 13: you know, the things was it was the way that

619
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 13: the cookie crumbled, and you know it's you you saw

620
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 13: a raw emotion and and you know that was that

621
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 13: was just genuine, a genuine look at at what we

622
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 13: were going through. And you know, it wasn't always the

623
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 13: brightest point, but there was there was a lot of

624
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 13: you know, good moments too. You know, I'm in a

625
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 13: really good place right now, really happy to be out

626
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 13: here with the guys, happy to watch you know, Aiden

627
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 13: and Gardner go at it and and just have a

628
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 13: you know, really just put their best tape together. They're

629
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 13: not even battling each other. It's it's you know, Aiden

630
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 13: versus Aiden, Gardner versus Gardner, you know, me versus me,

631
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 13: Cob versus Cob, and that's just kind of how it

632
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 13: is on this team.

633
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 1: Welcome back, Judy Batista, Welcome in our friend Steve White,

634
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 1: you heard Steve Davante Adams right there talking about the

635
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 1: quarterback situation and there have been a ton of changes

636
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 1: from his buddy Derek Carr, who was there was bench

637
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 1: late in the twenty twenty two season, and obviously last

638
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 1: year it was Jimmy g they made the move Aidan O'Connell.

639
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 2: DeVante says that he signed off.

640
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: Now, whether it's Gardner minshew or Aidan O'Connell, somebody's got

641
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 1: to get Devonte the ball in the early going or

642
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: all that under the radar buzz about maybe it would

643
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 1: be available in the trade is only going.

644
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 2: To pick up one thousand percent.

645
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 11: Tom.

646
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 14: And I was at day one of training camp today

647
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 14: down in coach Tamasa with the Raiders, and there's a

648
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 14: lot of talk about how this probably is going to

649
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 14: be a run heavy offense, which is not music to

650
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 14: Devonte Adam's ears.

651
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 2: But you know, you heard him.

652
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 14: Talk about the quarterback competition right there between aid And

653
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,479
Speaker 14: O'Connell and Gardner Minshew. Of course, head coach Antonio Pierce

654
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 14: said there are no rush to come to a decision

655
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 14: on who that's going to be. And today both minshew

656
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 14: and O'Connell said each has to earn this.

657
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 2: That was a modernly paced.

658
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 14: Ninety minute practice today, and O'Connell took the majority of

659
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 14: the steps with the first team, But that really didn't

660
00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 14: mean anything with the way they were rolling players through there.

661
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 14: Everyone got to work with the starters, everyone got to

662
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 14: work with the backups. Now they were mentally stressed, though,

663
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 14: Luke gets you. The new offensive coordinator was rolling in

664
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 14: a ton of personnel packages, including multiple tight end packages

665
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 14: with this year's rookie first round Draftic brock Bowers. Last

666
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 14: year's topic, Michael Mayer, that's something to look for in

667
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 14: this office offense. And in terms of Adams, just a

668
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 14: little side note, he said he may have to dip

669
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 14: out a training camp because his wife is expected to

670
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 14: deliver their baby boy at any moment.

671
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 12: Duty.

672
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 6: Just to go back to him talking about the Netflix show.

673
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 6: I give him a lot of credit because he did

674
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 6: not try to say no, we were misportrayed and it

675
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 6: wasn't edited fairly. He said, yeah, it was an accurate

676
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 6: representation of how frustrated he was. He did not back

677
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 6: off how frustrated he was last season. I did think

678
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 6: he sounded really settled and in a good place right now.

679
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 6: Although certainly we will see how the season develops. If

680
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 6: they're not going to get him the ball, suspect we

681
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 6: will see a lot more frustration.

682
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 2: One thing I did think was interesting.

683
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 6: He talked about Luke Getzi's offense and how comfortable he

684
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 6: is in that. He said he remembers about eighty five

685
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 6: percent of that offense from when it was in Green Bay,

686
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 6: so he feels a real comfort level. He's been able

687
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 6: to help other guys absorb it, and perhaps that will

688
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 6: help a little bit calm the waters there. But as

689
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 6: you said, Steve, if they are going to focus on

690
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,480
Speaker 6: having a run heavy attack and they don't get the

691
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 6: ball to Davante Adams early and often, certainly keep your

692
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 6: eye on the trade deadline because we're going to be

693
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 6: talking an awful lot about Davante Adams at that point.

694
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 2: Steve, Thank you very much. Judy.

695
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,320

Speaker 7: Ian Rappaport and Judybatista, is Sarah Walsh down there in Tampa,

715
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 7: covering the Buccaneers closely for US year in and year out.

716
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 7: It's been an eventful last couple of years for the

717
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 7: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, maybe surprising some folks with what Baker

718
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 7: Mayfield was able to do at the quarterback position for them. Sarah,

719
00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 7: let's talk about Mayfield's command of the offense now year two,

720
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 7: new coordinator, new offense, but his command of how things

721
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 7: are happening in Tampa.

722
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 15: Well, A very splt looking Baker Mayfield hit the field

723
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 15: this morning for the Buccaneers very first training camp practice. Look,

724
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 15: he has the security, he has the contract, and you

725
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 15: know what else, he still has a chip.

726
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:20,760
Speaker 2: On his shoulder.

727
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,399
Speaker 15: I asked Sterling Shepherd, a receiver who knows him well,

728
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:26,719
Speaker 15: is old buddy back from Oklahoma, who the Bucks only

729
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 15: signed back in June.

730
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:30,799
Speaker 4: Is he running out of chips? But what does he have?

731
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,800
Speaker 15: And he said, you know what, that chip is always

732
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 15: going to be there. That is how he operates. He said,

733
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 15: he's going to find someone that either writes him off.

734
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 15: He's going to find someone that thinks he shouldn't have

735
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,560
Speaker 15: gotten the big contract. He will make up something in

736
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 15: his head.

737
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 4: That is how he operates.

738
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 15: But he said he's seen such a huge amount of

739
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 15: growth in Baker from the Baker that he knew back

740
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,319
Speaker 15: in the college. They said a lot of that hass.

741
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:51,480
Speaker 4: To do with maturity.

742
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 15: And maybe Baker will look at who they're picking to

743
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:55,920
Speaker 15: win the NFC South because it never seems to be

744
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,399
Speaker 15: the Buccaneers. They're never the favorite, and yet they're going

745
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 15: for their fourth straight division crown.

746
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 9: Now.

747
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,880
Speaker 15: When Todd Bowles addressed the team before they started practice,

748
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 15: he said, this can no longer just be about the division.

749
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,359
Speaker 15: This has got to be about winning the Super Bowl

750
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 15: and there superstar receiver. Mike Evans doesn't believe that that's

751
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 15: out of reach. He said, he can already tell the

752
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:17,319
Speaker 15: differences because the consistency they now have from Baker from

753
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 15: what they had a year ago when they didn't know

754
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,480
Speaker 15: if he was the starter. He said, just in OTAs

755
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,919
Speaker 15: he could tell, there's a big difference in this Buccaneers team.

756
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 15: And you have to remember they didn't lose anybody on offense,

757
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,399
Speaker 15: no big names, and in fact, they just added key

758
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 15: pieces on the offensive line. Now, Evans is about the

759
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 15: most humble receiver you are ever going to meet.

760
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 2: He said.

761
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 4: He doesn't write down goals.

762
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 15: He doesn't say I need to do this or that,

763
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 15: but it was brought up to him today. If he

764
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,280
Speaker 15: has one thousand receiving yards, that would make it eleven

765
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 15: straight for him. Look at the names of where Mike

766
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 15: Evans is a monkst and he trails only Jerry Rice.

767
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 15: He can tie Rice's record of eleven consecutive one thousand

768
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:57,279
Speaker 15: yard of receiving seasons. And he said, yeah, he is

769
00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,520
Speaker 15: very much aware of that, and he knows that he

770
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 15: is chased in history. And you know that Baker guys

771
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:04,399
Speaker 15: is going to work on getting the ball to Mike.

772
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 6: We You know who else has a chip on his shoulder,

773
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:10,360
Speaker 6: there is Todd Bowles. You referenced it, Sarah. The Bucks

774
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 6: posted a video of Todd Bowles addressing the team before

775
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:17,359
Speaker 6: training camp opened, and Todd Bowles would sounded like as

776
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 6: salty as Todd Bowles get. He's not really a salty

777
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 6: kind of guy.

778
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:21,840
Speaker 2: But he talked.

779
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 6: About the goal now is not to win the division.

780
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,560
Speaker 6: We've done that already. The goal is the super Bowl.

781
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 6: And he even talked about he doesn't just want players

782
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 6: who are making the team. He wants players who are

783
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 6: trying to make an impact on the team. It's not

784
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 6: enough to just like, yeah, I'm going to make the

785
00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 6: team in training camp. He wants players who the goal

786
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 6: is to dominate. And I thought that was a really

787
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 6: interesting mentality shift in Tampa. As you pointed out, they

788
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 6: are an overlooked franchise. They have been really their entire time,

789
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,839
Speaker 6: maybe except when Tom Brady was there. Nobody gives them

790
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,759
Speaker 6: any credit for winning the division. We know it's a

791
00:36:56,840 --> 00:37:00,480
Speaker 6: very winnable division. It's wide open. Every year they have

792
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 6: owned it, and they have gone to the playoffs four

793
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 6: years in a row.

794
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,840
Speaker 2: And Todd Bowles. Sounded to me like he was tired

795
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:09,920
Speaker 2: of being overlooked. Talk about overlooked. Under the radar.

796
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 5: Tristan Wurf's one of the best offensive tackles in the

797
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 5: NFL and to one of the best players overall in

798
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 5: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers not doing very much. He also,

799
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,360
Speaker 5: I would say, similar to Trent Williams, although much younger

800
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 5: but similar talent level, would like a new contract, and

801
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 5: I think the expectation of thought all along was he

802
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,920
Speaker 5: would be among the highest paid tackles in the NFL,

803
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 5: perhaps the highest paid.

804
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,399
Speaker 2: Tackle until and unless that deal gets done.

805
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,360
Speaker 5: It wouldn't expect to see very much of him, but

806
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,800
Speaker 5: obviously incredibly important piece of this offense.

807
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 2: It's a tough deal to do, though.

808
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 5: This market jumped big time this offseason when Piney Schewell

809
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 5: got done at twenty eight per year. Perhaps that is

810
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,839
Speaker 5: the benchmark for Worves deal. Obviously, until he gets there,

811
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 5: wouldn't expect him to play much football.

812
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 7: Make from the Buccaneers to the team the Bucks knocked

813
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,560
Speaker 7: off in the postseason last year, that is, they pilled.

814
00:37:59,360 --> 00:37:59,959
Speaker 2: Up via Eagle.

815
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 7: They open up training camp once again, high expectations but

816
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 7: the quarterback Jalen Hurts, had to answer about his feelings

817
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 7: toward the head.

818
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 2: Coach Nick Sirianni. We'll talk about that coming up. I

819
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:15,320
Speaker 2: think Josh Allen listens.

820
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 1: Of course he does, although he's got other things to do.

821
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,799
Speaker 2: Right now, he's out at Buffalo's bills camp. Where as

822
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:22,320
Speaker 2: you would.

823
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 1: Imagine a war welcome from the fans, there is it

824
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,880
Speaker 1: that cold right now. He's going hood up for the

825
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 1: first day at training campaign. He's back onto the field,

826
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: and certainly with all the changes in Buffalo, that has

827
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,320
Speaker 1: not changed his expectations.

828
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 16: There's one job to get done, and that's to win

829
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:42,719
Speaker 16: a Super Bowl and putting in the work you know,

830
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 16: in the spring, in the summer, he's going to pay

831
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 16: dividends to right now, and we got to keep continuing

832
00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:51,440
Speaker 16: to work hard and focus on and just trying to

833
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 16: be the best versions of our sales each and every day.

834
00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts and the Eagles went to the Super Bowl

835
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,279
Speaker 1: a couple of seasons ago, looked like they had a

836
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,160
Speaker 1: chance to get back there until everything came up and

837
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 1: glued down the stretch. That raised a lot of questions

838
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:06,720
Speaker 1: about a variety of issues within the team, including Jalen

839
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,319
Speaker 1: Hurts and Nick Sirianni.

840
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 2: How is that relationship these days, Jalen, I.

841
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,319
Speaker 17: Think we're in a great place, you know. I think

842
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 17: anytime you have any frustration, anytime you have any any

843
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 17: adversity that you have to overcome, it's supposed to test you.

844
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 17: And I think it's a matter of being on the

845
00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:22,360
Speaker 17: same page, you know.

846
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:23,000
Speaker 2: And I think if we.

847
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 17: Are on the same page, well maybe we would accomplish

848
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 17: the things we would have and you know we didn't,

849
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:28,240
Speaker 17: but it's a learning experience.

850
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 2: Thank you.

851
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 17: Guys have known me well enough and have gotten a

852
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 17: field for me better enough to know that anything and

853
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,439
Speaker 17: everything that I do is for the betterment of the team,

854
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 17: and that's trying to win. And so I think if

855
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:43,439
Speaker 17: everybody has that mentality within their role, then.

856
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:43,959
Speaker 2: Would be fine.

857
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts having his press conference live from what sounds

858
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,319
Speaker 1: like a daycare there in the background. So we welcome

859
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,800
Speaker 1: you back to the insiders. Tom Pella, Saroi and rapport,

860
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 1: Juni Batista and Mike garat Fulham, like you spent a

861
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,319
Speaker 1: lot of time around that Eels team. We know the

862
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 1: highs that they had over really a two year spangled

863
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 1: to the middle of twenty one, all the games they won,

864
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 1: everything went sideways down the stretch. What you hear, What

865
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,520
Speaker 1: is that relationship like and how much is that going

866
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,560
Speaker 1: to have an impact on the Eagles season in twenty four.

867
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 7: I don't buy this as a one on one thing,

868
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 7: Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni. I buy this as an

869
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 7: entire locker room on both sides of the ball with

870
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:21,040
Speaker 7: the entire coaching staff. And this coaching staff did get

871
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:24,800
Speaker 7: a makeover in the offseason with both coordinators being replaced.

872
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 7: Now you've got Vic Fangio on the defensive side of

873
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 7: the ball and Kellen Moore on the offensive side of

874
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,320
Speaker 7: the ball. Who is bringing in fresh ideas. They're not

875
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 7: going to go completely away from the identity that they've

876
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 7: had the last couple of years, but it's going to

877
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:39,279
Speaker 7: be merged with what more does, more motions, more real

878
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 7: stretching the field and forcing defenses to cover more of it.

879
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 7: And Jalen Hurts saw from opposing defenses a lot of

880
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:51,400
Speaker 7: pressure last year, a lot of forcing him to see

881
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:54,799
Speaker 7: things quicker, and it just fell apart, and just from

882
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,239
Speaker 7: the entire coaching staff perspective, they just couldn't find it

883
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:01,359
Speaker 7: once it started rolling, are completely off the rails down

884
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,400
Speaker 7: the stretch. I still believe he and Nick Sirianni and

885
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 7: the entire locker room in Nick Sirianni are just fine.

886
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 2: But it's gotta be vibing with.

887
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 7: Those assistant coaches, particularly on that offensive side of the ball.

888
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 6: For Hertz, you know what fixes relationships. Winning football games

889
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:21,719
Speaker 6: fixes relationships. That is what makes everybody happy. And if

890
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:24,400
Speaker 6: they can come out and start the season with some

891
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 6: wins and end the narrative that they were on that skid,

892
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 6: which is exactly what we saw from them in the

893
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,879
Speaker 6: second half of the season, if they can just stabilize

894
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 6: right out of the gate, then I think all of

895
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:39,640
Speaker 6: this noise about relationships goes away. Look, they had a

896
00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:41,879
Speaker 6: great start to the season last year, and then, as

897
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:46,160
Speaker 6: you said, when things started rolling downhill, they just could

898
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,920
Speaker 6: not stop it. They could not find a way to

899
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,080
Speaker 6: stop the bleeding. But again, I think if they can

900
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:56,560
Speaker 6: just start the season well and calmly, then I think

901
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 6: all of the relationships will be fine and everything will

902
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 6: settle down.

903
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:04,520
Speaker 5: In Philadelphia, Judy, I paid very very close attention to

904
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:07,319
Speaker 5: Jalen Hurts and press conferences. It's hard to imagine a

905
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 5: more the calculated interview. What he says, he means and

906
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,400
Speaker 5: no doubt, something he thinks about greatly. And the fact

907
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,080
Speaker 5: that he met with the reporters for the first time,

908
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 5: you know, in many, many months, and he didn't say, ah,

909
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 5: that was an overbone media storyline that was ridiculous. We're fine,

910
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 5: he said, essentially, we are better now. He talked about

911
00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,840
Speaker 5: the adversity and said it was hard, talked about the frustration.

912
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,879
Speaker 5: It was really everything you would want to hear from

913
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 5: Jalen Hurts going into the season.

914
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,319
Speaker 2: Look, it's going to be hard. Football seasons are hard.

915
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 5: But the fact Tom that he basically acknowledged that there

916
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:42,840
Speaker 5: were issues last year that they are working through is

917
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 5: a very very positive step toward the way the Eagles

918
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 5: need to see it.

919
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 1: Six weeks from now, the Eagles will be in Brazil

920
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 1: for the season opener against the Packers. That's how close

921
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 1: we are to football. Thanks everybody for watching Cowboys on

922
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 1: the field. Tomorrow James Slaters Box Star will talk about

923
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:02,919
Speaker 1: them and a whole lot more.

924
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,000
Speaker 2: Thanks as always for watching seem
