He is going to join us. 5 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:24,760 Speaker 1: How does New York bounce back in twenty twenty four? 6 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:26,759 Speaker 1: What kind of tips has he been getting from Lawrence Taylor? 7 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 1: KT's got answers for us in just a little bit. Also, 8 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: Eli Manning going one on one with our guy rht 9 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 1: lewis down at the Manning Passing Academy. And Adam Rank 10 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 1: is going to be here one of our fantasy gurus. 11 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:40,480 Speaker 2: He's got. 12 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 1: I am told some names that potentially should be the 13 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,520 Speaker 1: number one overall picking your fantasy draft. 14 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 2: They're gonna blow your mind. 15 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,839 Speaker 1: I am ready to have my mind blown, and I 16 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,959 Speaker 1: better be, because football is closer than you think. Sixty 17 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: nine days from tonight. It's those guys, the Chiefs, the Rave, 18 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes coming off of a second consecutive Super Bowl 19 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 1: trying to kick off a three peat. And Lamar Jackson, 20 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: the raining NFL MVP, hoping the Ravens can break through 21 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four. But first he's got to get 22 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: through a rough and tumble AFC North Division. 23 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 2: Where are that guy's ready to throw some haymakers. 24 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 1: It's Russell Wilson, literally in the ring getting himself back. 25 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: He said to some of the things that he did 26 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: when he had his best seasons in his Seattle days. 27 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 2: You know what. 28 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: It's Russell Wilson, and it's this time of year. Every 29 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 1: move he makes, every breath he takes, We'll be watching 30 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: him on his social media. I know our guy Adam 31 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: Rake certainly is keeping an eye on Russ, keeping an 32 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: eye on the entire NFL. You can read his team 33 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:50,279 Speaker 1: by team, state of the team breakdowns, nfl dot Com, 34 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: slash rank and rank you tackled over the past several days. 35 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: Here the AFC North, I think it is one of 36 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: the most fascinating divisions. If you tell me top to 37 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: a bout of which division does every matchup have some intrigue? 38 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: I'd put the AFC North certainly among the top divisions overall. 39 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: But tell me about the Steelers. We know Russ says 40 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: that he has revived in every way. What does it 41 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: mean to you, especially knowing that that quarterback you cheer 42 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 1: for with your Bears for the past several years. 43 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 2: Is out there now too. 44 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 3: Well, that's Yeahustin Field is there. But I think this 45 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 3: is all about Russell Wilson now currently. He comes into 46 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh as the number one guy, and I think this 47 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 3: is a huge opportunity for him. 48 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 2: What you want to do is let him cook. 49 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 3: That's the saying, right, But it's like the last two 50 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 3: coaches they weren't letting them cook. It's like if you 51 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 3: hired Gordon Ramsey and he doesn't get the yell at 52 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 3: people like. 53 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: No, you're not doing things correctly. 54 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 3: But with Russell Wilson in Pittsburgh, they're going to have 55 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 3: a strong defense, much like his days in Seattle, will 56 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 3: probably run a lot of play action. Arthur Smith, who's 57 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 3: now the offensive coordinator fore the Pittsburgh Steelers, ran a 58 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 3: lot of play action when he was the offensive coordinator 59 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 3: for the Tennessee Titans. 60 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 2: We expect Russell Wilson to get back to that. 61 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 3: He has a passer over one hundred when it comes 62 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 3: to play action, and I think that's what they're going 63 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 3: to be using. 64 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 2: And here's the thing too. 65 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 3: Last season, as bad as he thought as it was 66 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 3: for Russell Wilson, he had twenty six touchdown passes. The 67 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 3: Steelers as a team have not had more than twenty 68 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,519 Speaker 3: five since twenty twenty two. So this is the big 69 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 3: thing for the Steelers. But I think it's also big 70 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 3: for Mike Tomlin. You know, we hear about this all 71 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 3: the time. Mike Tomlin never had a losing season, which 72 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 3: is fine, but this is Pittsburgh. This is not some 73 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 3: this isn't Carolina. This is Pittsburgh. You gotta go out 74 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 3: there and win championships. 75 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 2: And it reminds me. 76 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 3: Now, Tom, I know you're a young man, but there 77 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 3: was a guy in Dallas by the name of Tom Landry. 78 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 3: I don't know if you've ever heard of him, but 79 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 3: he used to go on TV all the time and 80 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 3: they'd be like, oh, Tom Landry, the only coach of 81 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 3: the Dallas Cowboys hasn't. 82 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 2: Had to lose, And you're like, that's great. 83 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 3: He doesn't win super Bowls and Mike Tomlin's got to 84 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 3: get back to winning super Bowls the Steelers and as 85 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 3: a matter of fact, haven't won a playoff game since 86 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 3: twenty sixteen. You know what momentous thing happened in twenty sixteen. 87 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 3: We are just talking about it. Him I'm going to 88 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 3: go Matt Schema replaced Tom DeLong in two that that's 89 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 3: how long ago it was that said Steelers won. 90 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: A playoff game. That does feel like a long time ago. 91 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: Now Tom Delong's back, they're on tour again, obviously even 92 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: so far Stadium in a couple of weeks here. So 93 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 1: quarterback intrigue, certainly in Pittsburgh, it's about the revival of 94 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,919 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, what the role is, if any for Justin Fields. 95 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: In Cleveland, it's about what Deshaun Watson are we going 96 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: to get? Because the Browns, everybody knows, gave up all 97 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: those draft picks to get him in. They gave him 98 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: the five year, two or thirty million dollar fully guaranteed 99 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: contract year one. They knew he was going to be suspended, 100 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 1: miss a good chunk of the season last year, plays 101 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: the best game he'd played in the Browns uniform against 102 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: the Ravens, busts up his shoulder, misses the rest. 103 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 2: Of the year. 104 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: What Deshaun Watson are we going to get? And how 105 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 1: does that impact the team that, somehow, with four different 106 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 1: quarterbacks made the playoffs in twenty twenty three. 107 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 3: Rank that's the big thing because Joe Flacco played so 108 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 3: well down the stretch and a lot of people thought, hey, 109 00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 3: maybe we should just stick with Joe Flacco. They've found 110 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 3: a formula here with him, because as you said about 111 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 3: Deshaun Watson, he has not played more than six games 112 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 3: in a season for the Cleveland Browns. His passer rating 113 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 3: has been well below the one hundred mark which he 114 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 3: had with the Houston Texans. So there's a lot of 115 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 3: concerns about him. And it's so much so that even 116 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 3: though Joe Flacco ended up in Indianapolis, they went and 117 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,159 Speaker 3: signed Jameis Winston to back him up. But here's the 118 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 3: one thing that I think is important to note here. 119 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 3: Deshaun Watson was five and one as a started for 120 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 3: the Cleveland Browns. As great of a story as it 121 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,559 Speaker 3: was for Joe Flacco to come out here, like Shane 122 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 3: Falco out of nowhere. They pulled him off, They pulled 123 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 3: him out of the boat and said get into the lineup. 124 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 2: And he played well. 125 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,359 Speaker 3: But Deshaun Watson was playing very well, and to me, 126 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 3: that is a big thing for them, and I think 127 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 3: they got to get to it and they did the right 128 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 3: thing too. They went out there and they traded for 129 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 3: Jerry Judy. Hopefully they can get everything settled with Amari Cooper. 130 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 3: You got Nick Chubb coming back from his injury. But 131 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 3: Jerome Ford played really well and their defense is great. 132 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 3: So I think for the Cleveland Browns, the biggest key 133 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 3: for them is to prove to everybody that it wasn't 134 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 3: a one year one like this. 135 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 2: Is actually a good team. 136 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 3: And thankfully David and Joko and I have squashed our 137 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 3: beef and I will give them the respect. 138 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 2: I think that's a good team. 139 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 3: I think they're going to prove it, and I think 140 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 3: they will get back to the playoffs. But the key 141 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 3: this year they got to win some playoff games. 142 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 1: It's pretty wild when you think back, because remember Deshaun 143 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: Watson didn't play at all in twenty twenty one. Over 144 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: the past three seasons, combined twelve starts fourteen touchdown passes. 145 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: It's hard to fully get that rhythm back when you're 146 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: not on the field. Browns are hopeful that's going to 147 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 1: happen this year. Lamar Jackson has been able to stay 148 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: on the field here. It certainly did over the course 149 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: of last season. He wins the NFL MVP, then once 150 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: again this has kind of been the story. They get 151 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: into the playoffs and there's a power outage on offense. 152 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: They add Derrick Henry. Lamar is back, those young receivers 153 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: another year older. How is this all going to play 154 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: in Baltimore? 155 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 4: Rank? 156 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 3: I think Derrick Henry was the most inevitable piece in 157 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 3: the offseason, the most transparent free agent move you can may. 158 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 3: It reminds me of when Shaq joined the Lakers. He 159 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 3: knew what was going to happen, and what happened was 160 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 3: the Shackos and the Lakers they win three titles. I'm 161 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 3: not sure that Derek Henry delivers three titles for the 162 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 3: Baltimore Ravens, but they do have to find a way 163 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 3: to get Bass to the Kansas City Chiefs. It's great, 164 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson near unanimous MVP. The accolades are there. You 165 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 3: had a home playoff game. As a matter of fact, 166 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 3: you've had a home playoff game for the last couple 167 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 3: of seasons. It hasn't quite worked out, so they have 168 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 3: to Breck Henry has to. 169 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 2: Be the missing piece. 170 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: Meanwhile, the Bengals also have at times played without their 171 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: starting quarterback Joe Burrow. He's had a bunch of just 172 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: weird things happened to him over the past couple of years. 173 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,239 Speaker 1: Here with a healthy Joe Burrow and assuming that things 174 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: work out with some wide receiver situations, will be monitoring 175 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: leading up to the start of camp. What are the Bengals? 176 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: What do they have to do rank to be in 177 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 1: this mix? Well, I believe they're still in the super 178 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: Bowl window. 179 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 3: I think that Joe Burrow has shown that he can 180 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 3: best the Kansas City Chiefs. Now, it might not have 181 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 3: been a great idea to dub that stadium Burrowhead, perhaps 182 00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 3: the most questionable decision since Dave went after Taylor Swift, 183 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 3: but still the Bengals have shown the moxie and even 184 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 3: though lou Ana Roumo has not had a top fifteen 185 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 3: deepense during his time in Cincinnati, they always seem to 186 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 3: find a way to beat them. So for me, I 187 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 3: still think the Bengals are in the super Bowl mix, 188 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 3: and I think it's fair to say that it's Super 189 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 3: Bowl or bust for them. 190 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: Much like Dave Grohld, the Bengals just seem to stick around. 191 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 2: Rank. 192 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere you stick around too, because you're gonna 193 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: tell us in just a short period of time here 194 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: some of the surprise names you think should be in 195 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: consideration for the number one pick in fantasy drafts? 196 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 2: Could it be a total shocker? Like, oh, I don't know. 197 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 1: The new quarterback of the Washington Commanders, Jade Daniels. He's 198 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: got his contract done. He was on the field throughout 199 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: the spring. Austin Eckler was right here on the Insiders 200 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: a couple of nights ago was actually shooting me down saying, no, 201 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: don't just talk about Justin Herbert. 202 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 2: I was on a Tella TM. 203 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: He goes, We've got an absolute stud in Jane Daniels. 204 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: Is that enough for the Commanders to be a surprise 205 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: in a division that has been ruled in the past 206 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: couple of years by the Eagles and the Cowboys. For 207 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 1: more on that, we go to Dallas and our friend 208 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 1: Jane Slater did There's a lot of things that are 209 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: rare about the situation in Dallas, the quarterback and the 210 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: head coach both being in contract. Here's another piece of 211 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: it is how often do you have a head coach 212 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: in the division who just came for your team like 213 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: Dan Quinn now going to Washington, what are your expectations 214 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: and how does this all fit into the broader tapestry 215 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: of how the nfc S plays out in twenty twenty four. 216 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 5: It's going to be such a fascinating division to keep 217 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 5: an eye on this year. Things I think are heating up, 218 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 5: not dissimilar from the four hundred and forty degree curling 219 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 5: iron that I used earlier today. So let's address the 220 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 5: rah in the room. But let's talk a little bit 221 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 5: about the commanders. You know Dan Quinn. I'm sure there 222 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 5: are some people in Dallas who wish that he had 223 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 5: gotten that Denver job that he was up to. He 224 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 5: was a highly sought after candidate, and both with the 225 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 5: Broncos and Seattle, ultimately decides to stay in the vision 226 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 5: and a head to the commanders. I'll say this about 227 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 5: covering dan Quinn in Dallas. The Cowboys made that very 228 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 5: interesting move in Mike McCarthy's first year, moving on from 229 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 5: Mike Nolan bringing Dan Quinn, and there was an immediate impact. 230 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 5: This is now a head coach that's going to your 231 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 5: division who has an intimate knowledge not only. 232 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 2: Of this offense. 233 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 5: Dak often spoke about his personal conversations with Dan and 234 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 5: how that was very rare but also such an intimate 235 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 5: knowledge of this defense. I mean, Micah Parsons is one 236 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 5: of the secret weapons that Dallas has on that side 237 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 5: of the ball, and he's the one responsible for getting 238 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 5: this guy to play all over the place. Add to 239 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 5: the fact that they went out and they got four 240 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 5: Dallas players who were available in the off season, this 241 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 5: is going to be really really interesting. Definitely, look at 242 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,839 Speaker 5: that Tyler Baudish at center. He's there to help Jade 243 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 5: and Daniels. He was great in Dallas, Jorance Armstrong, Dante 244 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 5: Fowler and Noah there. So that is going to be 245 00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 5: a team to watch. Granted, they've got a rookie quarter, 246 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 5: They've got a lot of moving pieces, but dan Quinn 247 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 5: certainly makes this thing very interesting. 248 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: There's also a little bit of NFC East revenge flavor 249 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 1: in Philly, not just Saquon coming from the Giants to 250 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: the Eagles, but also Kellen Moore, a year removed from 251 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 1: being Dallas's OC now going to be going and trying 252 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: to get the best of a Cowboys defense that for 253 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: the first time in a few years, is going to. 254 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 4: Have a different coordinator. 255 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 5: And an Eagles team was something to prove. I mean, 256 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 5: who can forget the epic collapse that the Eagles had 257 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 5: at the end of the year, Tom going one in 258 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 5: six in that final stretch of games. And if you 259 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 5: look at their schedule, it does start off a little tricky, 260 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 5: right They've got to go to Brazil to play the Packers, 261 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 5: and I think they've got Atlanta, they got New Orleans, 262 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 5: and they get a week five by the end of 263 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 5: their schedule that looks a little bit easier with Carolina, 264 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 5: Washington and New York. But to your point, Kellen Moore, 265 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 5: this is a guy who obviously knows a lot about 266 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 5: the Dallas Cowboys. I mean he was in the quarterbacks 267 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 5: room with Dak Prescott starting his rookie season. 268 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 2: This is also a. 269 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 5: Kellen Moore gets an offense that includes Jalen Hurts, AJ Brown, 270 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 5: Dallas Goddard, and then Saquon Barkley and then oh add 271 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 5: to the mix that defensively, they've got weapons like Cooper 272 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 5: dejen Quinnyon Mitchell. Howie keeps delivering the ingredients to Nick Sirianni, 273 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 5: and I think as much as we talk about Mike 274 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 5: McCarthy being in the hot seat, Nick Sirianni might want 275 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 5: to do something with this. I mean, I think a 276 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 5: lot of people in Philadelphia would say, look, we've got 277 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 5: the ingredients here, let's not overcook them. 278 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: Jane, thank you very much. Look forward to chatting with 279 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: you again soon. Let's stay in the NFC East. In 280 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: the next segment, we got Kevon Thibodeau. Giants pass Rush 281 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 1: are coming up a little bit later. But after this, 282 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: how about Giants legend Eli Manning joining our Rett Lewis 283 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: live for the Manning Passing Academy. They go one on 284 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 1: one talking about some of the bright young future stars 285 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Maybe Eli's outlook on those giants as well. 286 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:58,719 Speaker 2: That's next on the Insiders. 287 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: The Manning family, Archie, Peyton, and Eli out at Nichols 288 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,559 Speaker 1: State in Louisiana this week holding the annual Manning Passing 289 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: Academy for some of the country's top high school football players. 290 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: Our guy Rent lewis also in the house. He's there 291 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 1: caught up with Eli for. 292 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 2: One on one. 293 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 6: Are you twenty eighth Manning Passing Academy here?

You're like, man, 374 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 6: I hope these guys are still taking and loving this 375 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 6: piece of the game, you know what I mean? 376 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, And I think that's that's what I get worried 377 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 7: a little bit about about college football is just the 378 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 7: niel that maybe these guys aren't going to college based 379 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 7: on the fact that they're not picking their college. Basically 380 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 7: the fact if I never played down of football, would 381 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 7: I be happy at this school? 382 00:16:58,600 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 8: Right? 383 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 7: And I think that that was a big part of 384 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 7: my decision making going to college, just because I think 385 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 7: I had an older brother, Cooper, who went to play 386 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,679 Speaker 7: college football and got injured, never played it down, and 387 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 7: that came into consideration. I think Archie, you know, that 388 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 7: came into consideration with him when he was picking Texas, and. 389 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 8: That's why he's not leaving and he's not. 390 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 2: Right. 391 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 7: Hey, I like it here. I picked this school for 392 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 7: a reason. They're going to make me a better player. 393 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 7: It's a great culture and he wants to stay there. 394 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 7: And so I think that's a you know thing that 395 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,439 Speaker 7: maybe you get worried about. Are you enjoying college football? 396 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 7: You're enjoying the college life and the environment all that 397 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 7: that surrounds being in college and everything that comes with it. 398 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 6: Aside from getting a blood pressure check on Peyton during 399 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 6: Monday nights this fall, I mean. 400 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:40,959 Speaker 2: We should outfit him with like a cough just to 401 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 2: make sure. I think he gets pretty intense about that. 402 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 7: What's the vein and start out and starts, you know, 403 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 7: kind of throbbing. 404 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 8: That's when I get worried. 405 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 6: We'll get you excited about watching the league now from 406 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 6: from your perspective, you' especially going into this year. 407 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,439 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think just the young talent. And there's obviously 408 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 7: the guys who've been around, the Patrick Mahomes and the 409 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 7: Josh Allens. But each year there's a new crop quarterbacks, 410 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 7: you know, new receivers that are that. 411 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:03,360 Speaker 8: Are coming out. 412 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 7: Who's gonna be the next Justin Jefferson and Odell Beckham 413 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 7: and who's gonna be the next Patrick Mahomes That's coming 414 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 7: through some of these young quarterbacks. So I think I 415 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 7: think the league is healthy with the amount of talent 416 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,159 Speaker 7: and the players, the coaches and so uh just saying, hey, 417 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 7: who's going to be a surprise team this Year's step 418 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 7: up and make a little run through the playoffs. 419 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 6: And then lastly, on your old squad with the Giants, 420 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,159 Speaker 6: what as you have fired up about what Brian da 421 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 6: Bole has in store here going into year three. 422 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm excited about the new rookie receiver and neighbors excited. 423 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 7: You know, Daniel Jones is back healthy and beck healthy 424 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 7: and he'd you know, been been with him.

You know, they 428 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,159 Speaker 8: were they were not a great team last year. They 429 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 8: could have won more games and and and I. 430 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 7: Think they'll they'll be a better team to people think. 431 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 6: I'd tell you the thing that I'm most excited about 432 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 6: is that you made it through your night with LT. 433 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 6: I did celebration here, which is I mean here, I 434 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 6: don't that was a given. 435 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:01,959 Speaker 2: So I'm happy for you. 436 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 7: I know, I know it was it was tough, but 437 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 7: you know, I had to do it.

Are we are we getting a 467 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 1: little bit different Daniel Jones, not just on this show, 468 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 1: but maybe heading into twenty twenty four. 469 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 4: Probably not.

It's been great so far, 492 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 9: you know, just connecting with the different brands and the 493 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 9: different companies that have been here. 494 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: It feels like yesterday you and I did a zoom 495 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: before the draft, just kind of talking about what to expect, 496 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: the process that was ahead, the media components of things. 497 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 1: If you think back to that guy coming into the 498 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 1: NFL a couple of years ago, what have you learned 499 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 1: as a person and a player that. 500 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,640 Speaker 2: Have kind of made you into one yard right now? 501 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 9: Definitely a lot more mature than I was before. You know, 502 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 9: it takes time. You know, you don't know what you 503 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 9: don't know right So being in the league, it's been great. 504 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 9: A few learning curves, which is always great, but things 505 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 9: have been going in the right direction. You know, I'm 506 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 9: excited for this season and I know that as I 507 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 9: continue to go through my career, I'm just going to 508 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 9: get smarter and I'm just going to, you know, learn 509 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 9: how to apply those smarts even more. 510 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 2: I love that your pass rusher for the Giants, which 511 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 2: has this amazing history of pass rushers. You were around 512 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 2: some of those guys at the recent Giants Legends event. 513 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 2: I think you talked to Lawrence Taylor there. What kind 514 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 2: of knowledge advice is a guy like that, the greatest 515 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 2: defensive player of all time impartying on you? 516 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 4: You know what? I think it's funny. 517 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 9: You know, you go into these conversations and you're always 518 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 9: looking for something, right, if they're a legend, You're like, 519 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 9: what did you do? 520 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 4: What was the secret sauce? And I think it was funny. 521 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 9: Lt He looked at me crazy when I said, I said, 522 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 9: what's the secret sauce? And he's like, now you know, 523 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 9: damn well, there ain't no secret sauce. And it's just 524 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 9: funny thinking that, like, when you make it to this level, 525 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 9: you make it on the same things that you're taught 526 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 9: as a kid. You know, hard work, integrity, dedication, and 527 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,360 Speaker 9: there's nothing you know. All his difference is you got 528 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 9: to be a little bit more dedicated and work a 529 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 9: little bit harder. But other than that, we have the tools, 530 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 9: you know, as athletes, you just got to continue to 531 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 9: apply him and do your best. 532 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 1: Have you ever gone back and dug into LT tape 533 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 1: number one? Half the stuff he's doing, half the tackles 534 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: and sacks you can't do anymore. 535 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:19,880 Speaker 2: You can't hit quarterbacks like that. 536 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: I'm always struck though, when I see replays LE games 537 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 1: like on an NFL network, the violence and speed with 538 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: which he seemed to play on every single snap, It's 539 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: just it's unbelievable. 540 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 9: And I think that's the only real thing that surprises 541 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 9: or I could say excites legends. Right, they never really 542 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 9: care about your goals, They never really care about your stats. 543 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 9: It's all about how you play the game. And I 544 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 9: think that's where you know, the respect for the game 545 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 9: comes in. Right, So when you talk to a dude 546 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 9: like LT, all he wants to know is are you 547 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 9: going to give it you all one hundred percent of 548 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 9: the time? And even for me, I think that's the 549 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 9: maturity level where you take that next step in your 550 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,199 Speaker 9: career where you know you play like an LT like 551 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 9: Michael Strahan, like you know, many legends out of before me. 552 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,399 Speaker 2: You said, do you want to go after straight hand Sackrucker. 553 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: That's a whole lot of sacks. You got to get 554 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: to do that in a single season. How do you 555 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: put together that type of year twenty twenty four? How 556 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: do you put yourself in that mindset to be able 557 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 1: to go out and produce at that type of level effort. 558 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 9: You know, there's a video of LT he said, we 559 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 9: got to go out there and play like some crazy dogs. 560 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 9: So I think that's the journey, and I think can 561 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 9: you do it every play for seventeen weeks? 562 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 4: And that's the mission. 563 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 1: You saw in that Hard Knocks preview the phone calls 564 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 1: led to the Brian burnstrade. When you know a guy 565 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: like that is coming in to tag team it with you, 566 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: up from what was your reaction to what's it been like. 567 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 2: Here just in this early portion of the offseason. 568 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 9: It's exciting, man, it's exciting. Me and Brian we have 569 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 9: a similar body type, we got a similar style of play, 570 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 9: but he's a little bit different. You know, He's faster, 571 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 9: he's quicker, he's obviously farther in his career than I am. 572 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 9: So there's a lot of gems he's been giving me, 573 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 9: and he's been able to help up my game a 574 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 9: little bit, and I've been, you know, competing with him, 575 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 9: giving him a few things that I know. It's been 576 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 9: great so far. So I'm excited to see, you know, 577 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 9: what's all to come from that. 578 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 2: I'm not a hot take guy, Cavon. 579 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 1: I'm not big on giving crazy opinions on TV or 580 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 1: on social media, but I gave one probably the most 581 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,360 Speaker 1: controversial thing I've tweeted in a long time. It's when 582 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: the new Century Red throwback uniforms were announced. I said, 583 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: these are one of the best uniforms that I've seen, 584 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:27,439 Speaker 1: the throwback alternate jerseys this offseason, and I got slaughtered 585 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 1: on social media unlike anything I've ever seen. When you 586 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: first got to look at them, they're different. Now I'm 587 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 1: a big tan pants guy, but you looked at that 588 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 1: Montreal Canadians type jersey and everything. 589 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:39,399 Speaker 2: What was your reaction to these unis? 590 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 9: So I'll be honest, no uniforms look good on media day, 591 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 9: right because we're not actually fully you know, suited. We 592 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 9: don't have the tape, we don't have you know, the braces, 593 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 9: we don't have all the good stuff. 594 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 4: That goes with it. 595 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 9: So I wasn't as excited as I am now, you know, 596 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 9: after seeing people have been putting edits and people have 597 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 9: been putting, you know, different things on it on social 598 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 9: media with how it. 599 00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 4: Will look once we plan it. But I'm excited. 600 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 9: Think it's gonna look good. I think it's gonna look 601 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,120 Speaker 9: good on TV. And I think that hopefully that they 602 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 9: sell those jerseys. I think they are, but I think 603 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 9: it's gonna be really exciting for the fans. 604 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: That's a great point. I'd never thought about that. In 605 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 1: those photos. There's zero swag on anybody. There's not a 606 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: risk Dan, there's not a piece of tape. You can't 607 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: do that you can't like, oh hey, I need to 608 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: get the full garb going. 609 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 2: Listen. 610 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 9: I think some people have shorts under their pants, like 611 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 9: I don't even know, you know, if you look close, 612 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 9: like we got on sneakers, you know, some. 613 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 4: People don't even have the right socks on underneath. 614 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 9: Like it's crazy, But I think it's gonna look good. 615 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones looks like he could wear that Tibet Like 616 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 1: those look like pajamas right there. 617 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 2: There is not a pad anywhere insight. You're also wearing 618 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 2: a shirt. 619 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 1: You're wearing a shirt for the Dream Foundation, which I 620 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: know you founded last year. Tell me about the work 621 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: that you're doing there. 622 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 9: So now we're on our third year in a Dream Foundation. 623 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 9: It's been great. 624 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 4: You know. 625 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 9: We focus on education and serving under underserved youth. So 626 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 9: basically we give resources to children in inner cities. Started 627 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 9: with Los Angeles and now we're out in New Jersey, 628 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 9: in New York and we're basically just giving the resources, 629 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 9: helping the mentors, given the education, and we're creating a 630 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 9: movement right, the movement and giving back to our children 631 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 9: because there's the future right when you look at what 632 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,959 Speaker 9: happened with COVID. We took a lot of our kids 633 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 9: out of school and they fell behind. So now in 634 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 9: the public schools and in the inner cities, kids are 635 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 9: struggling to catch up and meet their you know great 636 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 9: or their curriculum. So we've stepped in and we've helped 637 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,439 Speaker 9: mitigate that with bringing in tutoring programs and having you 638 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 9: know great partners come in and teach financial health and 639 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 9: this being the full house of using sports as the 640 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 9: carrot on the stick for the kids, but then also 641 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 9: helping the parents be better mentors and help them understand 642 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 9: how their kids need to be mentored. And also you know, 643 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 9: working with the different schools and helping them, you know, 644 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 9: teach the curriculum that they are. 645 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 2: That's awesome stuff. 646 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: I had to get that plug in for you there, Katie, 647 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: spending for you before before we let you go.

This is going to be a different Giants 650 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:07,479 Speaker 1: team in twenty twenty four, Week one at home against 651 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:08,160 Speaker 1: the Vikings. 652 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 2: You know that stadium is going to be rocking. 653 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 1: What kind of statement do you hope this Giants team 654 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 1: can make out. 655 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 9: Of the gate resiliency, physicality, speed. I mean, we're going 656 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 9: to play with all the things that we played in 657 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 9: and back in the day.

Heavens 674 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 2: has two today every Christmas, Michael. 675 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: That connection was a big role in Tampa's success last year. 676 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Insiders, Tom Pillar. Sara joined now 677 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: by Sarah Walsh down there in Florida. 678 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 4: Sarah. 679 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: Quite the journey for Baker Mayfield from Cleveland to Carolina 680 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 1: to La to Tampa has that big year. He gets 681 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 1: his three year, one hundred million dollars contract extension. What's 682 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 1: next and how does he continue the momentum that finally 683 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: he was able to build in twenty twenty three. 684 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 11: Well, sort of exactly what you just said there, Tom 685 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 11: is how Baker is looking at things this year. 686 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 2: There mantra is what can. 687 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 11: We do to sustain that success that you just saw 688 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 11: a season ago, and he said, so much of this 689 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 11: offseason has been for him about getting on the same 690 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 11: page with their new offensive coordinator, Liam Cohen. Cohen is 691 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 11: expected to place a lot more responsibility on Baker's shoulders. 692 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 11: He's now very secure in Tampa as a starter now 693 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 11: with the big new contract you just mentioned. He said, 694 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 11: some of that means for Baker when you talk about 695 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 11: the next step, it's flipping protections, it's putting his guys 696 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 11: in the right position, and so much of that what 697 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 11: they're trying to implement, he says, is made easier by 698 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 11: the fact that the defense that this Buccaneers team goes 699 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 11: against in practice. 700 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 2: Cohen told me, you go against a group like Vitaveya. 701 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 2: This Buccaneers offense, he. 702 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 11: Says, never see stationary and he believes that that's going 703 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 11: to help Baker come next season. Some of the other 704 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 11: little things that they're working on, he said, there will 705 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 11: be an emphasis on the fifteen scripted plays to start games, 706 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,480 Speaker 11: because they know that this Buccaneers team wants to start 707 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 11: games a lot faster than they did as season ago, 708 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 11: because while they often had results they like, the game's 709 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 11: never really started the way they wanted to. So it's 710 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 11: fine tuning some of those little things and it's all 711 00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 11: just really about now at this point with the contracted place, 712 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 11: the next step for Baker and this. 713 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 2: Offense tom. 714 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 1: Tons of coaching changes and other changes around the NFC 715 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 1: South in glinding course, Dave Canalis now going to Carolina 716 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: as the head coach. If Tampa's going to repeat as 717 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 1: Division champs, what is an X factor or who potentially 718 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: could be an X factor in that success. 719 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 11: Yeah, let me give you a guy on the offense 720 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 11: at least. This is what Liam Cohen said to me. 721 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 11: He said, quote jmack has flashed so far. Jmack being 722 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 11: Jalen McMillan, the third round pick the Bucks took out 723 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 11: of Washington. 724 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 2: Said he's a true route runner. 725 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 11: And this is really important for the Buccaneers because they've 726 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 11: had Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Chris Godwin, Mike Evans, and 727 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 11: then not a lot else. They really have struggled with 728 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 11: depth Todd Bowles at that position in particular. Todd Bowles 729 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 11: has said that they love McMillan's versatility, and Baker has 730 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 11: talked about the fact that he's got really strong hands, 731 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 11: he says, when he goes up to get the ball 732 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 11: out of the air the point of the attack, he 733 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 11: has just a really natural tendency which could and should 734 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 11: be huge for the Buccaneers. And Millan said he's used 735 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 11: to living up to expectations. When asked if he's ready 736 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 11: to jump into a pretty significant role right away, and 737 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 11: he said he cannot wait to show everyone next ball 738 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 11: what he can do. 739 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: Sarah, thank you very much, look forward to talking to 740 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: you again soon. Just sixty nine days now to kick 741 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: off of the NFL season. Jeez, I got sixty eight 742 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: days to get your fantasy draft in. Here's the top 743 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: five fantasy football player projections for twenty twenty four according 744 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 1: to NFL dot com. 745 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,040 Speaker 2: And you can sign up right now. 746 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 1: I checked earlier today Fantasy dot NFL dot com to 747 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 1: get in a league right now. 748 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 2: Let's welcome in. 749 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 1: Now are fantasy expert and experts of many things. Adam 750 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 1: Rank here, okay, Adam, I think that usually going in 751 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: right there's the consensus one, maybe two players who is 752 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: going to go at the top of every fantasy draft. 753 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 2: In your mind, how many players can. 754 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 1: You make a reasonable case this guy maybe should go 755 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: number one overall? In fantasy I would say one, but 756 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: they on this let me say CMC and then go 757 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 1: to the Angels game. They're going to make me sit 758 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: here and talk about a couple more guys, which is fair. 759 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 1: But I think CMC is the consensus number one. 760 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 3: But let me give you a couple other names of 761 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 3: guys who could be considered the top pick if you 762 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 3: don't want to go with the consensus. And one of 763 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 3: the guys was on the screen right there, Tyreek Hill 764 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 3: last year, the wide receiver two in fantasy football, had 765 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 3: a lot of games. He had what, nine games with 766 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 3: at least twenty five fantasy points, which was the most 767 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 3: in the NFL. He had five games with at least 768 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 3: thirty fantasy points, rock solid option. Of course, wide receivers 769 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 3: perceived to be a little bit more safer, safer so 770 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 3: to speak, except anybody who said justin Jefferson last year 771 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 3: might argue, But how about with John Robinson. Now A 772 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 3: lot of people are looking at this because the Falcons 773 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 3: have been talking about using him in the same way 774 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 3: that the forty nine ers use CMC, which then starts 775 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 3: leading me down the wormhole of the Peter Griffin of like, listen, 776 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 3: we could get a boat or get a mystery box, 777 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 3: which could be a boat. I guess, like, why wouldn't 778 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 3: you just take CMC. But Robinson is gonna be in 779 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 3: a very good offensive. Obviously, they added Kirk Cousins this offseason, 780 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 3: so he's a good pick. Bryce Hall was amazing last year. 781 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 3: He scored close to three hundred Fantasy points. 782 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 2: He was the RB two. The thing is he had 783 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 2: one goal line rush. He did all of that with 784 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:21,879 Speaker 2: getting no opportunities near the goal line. 785 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 3: So if he gets a chance in New York and 786 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 3: with Aaron Rodgers, they should be much better. I really 787 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,239 Speaker 3: like Bryce Hall. And finally, you know what, I'm gonna 788 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 3: go with Saquon Barkley. I think Saquon Barkley like he 789 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,480 Speaker 3: bounces back and what's the big knock? Everybody's gonna be 790 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 3: like he gets hurt all the time, That's exactly what 791 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 3: you said about CMC back in the day, and then 792 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,839 Speaker 3: he goes to San Francisco never gets injured. I think 793 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,879 Speaker 3: that once these guys leave these like bottom dweller franchises 794 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 3: and get up to like Philadelphia or places like that, 795 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 3: they're like, oh, I'm not as hurt as I used 796 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 3: to be and you know what, they can't do the 797 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 3: brotherly shove all the time. 798 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:54,840 Speaker 2: So I love Saquon Barkley. 799 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 4: This year. 800 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 1: You could have given me twenty guesses rank on who 801 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: is RB in Fantasy. Last year, I would not have 802 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:03,240 Speaker 1: gotten to Breshall. 803 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 2: There's no way now. Part of that's because the. 804 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 1: Jets were largely unwatchable on offense for good chunks of 805 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 1: that season. Do large to their quarterback play Aaron Rodgers back. 806 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: You might think where they're going to throw the football 807 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 1: a lot more. Maybe they're going to run the heck 808 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 1: out of the ball, because now teams will actually be 809 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 1: respecting the passing game. 810 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 2: Rank. 811 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,360 Speaker 1: You're the best man. Great chatting with you. Talk to 812 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 1: you again shortly here.
