1
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: He's the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson on

2
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 1: Home of the Black and Goal Steelers Nation Radio. Welcome

3
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,120
Speaker 1: to the Drive. I'm Dale Lolly here with Matt Williamson.

4
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 1: It is a when to see Wednesday. Wednesday, it's a

5
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 1: beautiful day outside. It feels like it's Thursday or Friday

6
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: or not having a game again. This I don't I'm

7
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 1: not so sure I like this whole week off in between.

8
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: I bet coaches love it because I mean I kind

9
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 1: of think of it like his Bowl practice, you know,

10
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 1: like get the JV team ready, you know, do a

11
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: lot of treatment, but don't really push the top guys

12
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: all that much. But they've kind of been doing that

13
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: for weeks now, you know what I mean. It's not

14
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: like the cam Heywards and the Watts have been getting

15
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: the crap meat out of him, you know. So I'm

16
00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 1: ready for real action, absolutely. And well we still got

17
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: a week and a half here before the Steelers play.

18
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:08,559
Speaker 1: There'll be a game next Thursday, so or a week out. Um,

19
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:12,040
Speaker 1: But Matt, I thought today to a kick off the show. Um,

20
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 1: now that the Steelers fifty three man roster is set,

21
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,839
Speaker 1: we would take a look at what they had last

22
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 1: year at this time what they have now for people

23
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: who they don't. Yeah, we looked at it going into

24
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 1: the start of camp, and things have obviously changed here

25
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: a little bit. Uh So, no further ado here. We

26
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: got that wide receiver this year, Deonte Johnson, General Chefsky,

27
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: George Pickens, Miles Boykin. Uh you got Chase Claypool, Calvin Austin,

28
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: Steven Simms. That's seven. Yeah, last year, at this time,

29
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: last year, at this time right now, they had five.

30
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: But that Jujuice six is more like you know, juju

31
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: Smith Schuster, Raby McLeod, Chase Claypool, Deante Johnson, James Washington,

32
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: better now or better than um? Deonte is a wash.

33
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 1: I like Claypool better then than now. I think better now.

34
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: He might be better now. He's definitely not worse. There's

35
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: no doubt about that. I'll take pickings over juju all

36
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:19,839
Speaker 1: day long, especially for this offense. And basically Washington verse

37
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 1: all those other guys, right and Washington and Ray McLeod,

38
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 1: Yeah right, those other guys McCloud and Sims are the same.

39
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: We'll cancel them out. I guess I don't think they are.

40
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 1: I'd rather Sims but I was just you know, trying

41
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: to make it easy and scratch off the common denominator

42
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 1: or whatever. Um. So yeah, I'll take Austin and the

43
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: other guys over Washington, who, by the way, just went

44
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 1: on injury reserve about half an hour ago. UM at

45
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: offensive on the offensive line, well, the starters are pretty

46
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: much the same other than Trade Turner, Mason Cole and well, okay,

47
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: let's let's just go through it. So you got damn

48
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,239
Speaker 1: more Kevin Thoughts and Mason Cole, James Daniels, Chooks of

49
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: Core for with Kendrick Green, j C. Hassen Hour and

50
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 1: Jesse Davis backing them up. Last year at this time

51
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: it was Chooks of Core for Kevin Thoughts and j C.

52
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: Hassen Our, Trade Turner, Zack Banner, Dan Moore, Kendrick Green,

53
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: Joe Hague. There really isn't anybody that's a major loss,

54
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, like I I look

55
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: at the group there, so you basically traded that Trade

56
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 1: Turner and Zack Banner. From that group was Zach Banner,

57
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: Trade Turner, Zach Banner, and Joe hag for James Daniels,

58
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: Mason Cole, and Jesse Davis. I think that's a win.

59
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: I think it is too. Yeah, I mean, I know

60
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: Daniels hasn't played well, but I'm still gonna put it

61
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:45,839
Speaker 1: more value rights out. Lion is fine and Lion general

62
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 1: was better, and that's what you wanted. That's what you

63
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: want to see. Like he's veteran, it's okay, it's time. Yeah.

64
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: I talked to him. I talked to him last week

65
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: after the after the game in Jacksonville. He said, look,

66
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: I'm this is this is August. I don't want to

67
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: be peeking in August. I want to be you know.

68
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: So I think there was like news knew the league,

69
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: and you know, he realizes where, you know, the most

70
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: important stuff is, and that's not for another fifteen days

71
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: or whatever ten days. Like you said the other thing

72
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: about the offensive line, I thought, real quick here before

73
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: we move on, Um, they're not. They're basically leaving all

74
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: those offensive linemen, all five of them, on an island.

75
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 1: They're not because it's and people say, well, why are

76
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 1: they doing it? You gotta find out who you need

77
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: to help evaluate. Yeah, you're evaluating those guys. It's so

78
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,599
Speaker 1: then more versus Allen In the Jags game, he was

79
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: losing and losing bad. Okay, So now if you play

80
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: the Jaguars again in the regular season, sex Entry is

81
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: gonna be lined up next to him. I was gonna say.

82
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: I mean, if if that were a regular season game,

83
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: they would have made adjustments, and they're not gonna lave

84
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: them on the island losing to a better player than

85
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 1: he is, you know. I mean, so, no, You're right.

86
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: It's the whole purpose is to evaluate the guys. So

87
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: let's make things hard on them and then make it

88
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,599
Speaker 1: easier when it matters to see where you need to,

89
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: you know, fix things. I mean Jack Banner's line in

90
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: the league, right, he really has no value. Uh yeah,

91
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: I mean I talked to him in the offseason. His

92
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 1: knee just never recovered that the thing. Yeah, that makes

93
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: total sense. And Trey Turner, I don't know. Did he

94
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: make Washington's fifth final rush. I think you should start

95
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 1: for him. Yeah, and he missed a bunch of camp

96
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,479
Speaker 1: though I didn't see all. I don't know that for sure,

97
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: but I just assumed he was going to be their

98
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: starter at right guard. A tight end Daniels, Yeah, I

99
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,799
Speaker 1: would too. Uh at tight end is Pat Fiarmouth Zach Gentry,

100
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: Connor Heyward. Last year at this time it was Eric Ebron,

101
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 1: Pat Farrenmouth, Zack Gentry, Gentry stock went up, Oh yeah,

102
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 1: went up. He was last year going into training camp,

103
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 1: you were wondering if Zach Gentry, Gentry, if he was

104
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: gonna make the team. Right, Yeah, so he had. He

105
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 1: took a major step forward. Um, now, Heywards the unknown

106
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: you know where friar Muth was the unknown. And I

107
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 1: know Ebron wasn't a tremendous steeler and hasn't had a

108
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: tremendous career and isn't in the league, but he holds

109
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 1: a little bit of weight here. You know, this time

110
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 1: last year we thought he's a matchup weapon and you know,

111
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 1: I mean he didn't work out to do a whole

112
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: heck of And I feel better. I feel better now

113
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 1: about Farmouth and I did last year. Firemouth and Gentry

114
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,359
Speaker 1: both big enough step forward with average sixteen yards of

115
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 1: catching a preseason Wow, I didn't realize that. Yeah, I

116
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:22,919
Speaker 1: mean it was and there were a couple of short

117
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 1: ones in there, but they were going down the field

118
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: to him, down the scene in the middle of the field. Yeah,

119
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: And it wasn't like you just stumped to him, and

120
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: he ran on screens and things he was getting down field.

121
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 1: So I think I would say this group, I mean,

122
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: the progress Muth and Gentry made I think is greater

123
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: than the distance between Ebron and Hayward. Frankly, if they said, well,

124
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,239
Speaker 1: I guess you could do this. You can sign Ebron

125
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 1: right now and cut Heyward and they're not doing it. Yeah,

126
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 1: wouldn't You wouldn't do that, and you wouldn't do that, right? Yeah, yes,

127
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 1: I feel better about that. Last year's version of Ebron

128
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: I still had some hope for I did too. Um

129
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: quarterbacks Ben Roethlisberger, Mason Rudolph, Wayne Haskins last year, this

130
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 1: year is Mr Robisky, Kenny Pickett, Mason Rudolph. Well, the

131
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: only you know, um staple is Rudolph, and he's better

132
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: now than then. Yeah, they're all better in Haskins. Can

133
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: you pick is better than Haskins? Yet that's not even close. Um.

134
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: I understand Ben's value and all that, but I would

135
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: never trade this quarterback room for that quarterback room. I

136
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 1: would agree with that, you know, Yeah, I mean some

137
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: of that's looking what this could become. Right, But even

138
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: if you said, okay, you can have last year's version

139
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: of Ben Roethlisberger with this team. I'm gonna take. I'll

140
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: take Trabisky, I'm gonna take this this group of quarterbacks. Yeah,

141
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: I mean, even if it's just straight up like you

142
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: can have one year ago version of Ben for Mitch. No,

143
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do it. Yeah, I'm with you on

144
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: that one. Yeah. I mean I'm not even talking about

145
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 1: the salary and all that stuff too. I mean, that

146
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: would make it even more images favor of course. Uh.

147
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: Last year's running back room was Nagi, Harris, Benny Snell,

148
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:04,119
Speaker 1: Anthony McFarlane, Calein Blage, and Derek What. This year not Harris,

149
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: Benny Snell, jaln Warren, Derek Derek What. One fewer player

150
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: No Anthony McFarland, No Calin Belage, I mean Warren Verseu

151
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: Belage had much rather of Warren, even what I thought

152
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 1: of Bellage then. But that's pretty close. Yeah, I mean

153
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: I think it's kind of a wash. I thought Harris

154
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: was going to be good. He was, he was right.

155
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: My opinion of him hasn't changed. Theatically hasn't changed at all.

156
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: On Water Snell for that matter, Snell was a little

157
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: better special teams wise than I thought he would have

158
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 1: been a year ago. But you know this one. But

159
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: basically it's a wash. I have high hopes for Jalen Warren,

160
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 1: but I don't know how much he's gonna be used.

161
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 1: I think he's I think I actually think he's pretty

162
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 1: good on special teams. Yeah, they seem to like him there. No,

163
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 1: I think he's what puts it over because I wasn't

164
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 1: big on bellage. I didn't quite understand that signing. He

165
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 1: couldn't get on he couldn't get on teams, on teams

166
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 1: at all and neither. Yeah, I mean that's what it

167
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 1: came down to for that spot. And I don't think

168
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 1: blogs in the league. No, No, Jalen Warren, by the way,

169
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: is the number two. That's I I don't think there's

170
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 1: definitely misconception there. There, there's definitely a misconception because that's

171
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 1: still how they listed on their depth chart. They have

172
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 1: an updated debt in weeks since they did the initial

173
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: wanted to start it before they played their first preseason game,

174
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: and the first one wasn't gospel to begin with, right, Yeah,

175
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: that's just put these guys in some kind of order.

176
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 1: But yeah, Jalen Warren is number two. I mean, I

177
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 1: think we'll see that in week one. I mean, we

178
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: know Harris's workload is always extreme, so it's not always

179
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: as easy to tell as some teams. But I think

180
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: he's gonna be the first half of the bench no

181
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: matter what. But all three of those guys are gonna

182
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 1: be active on game day. Warren and Harris are all

183
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: active as is what. And yeah, I think there's also

184
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 1: a misconception that boy Warren beat out McFarland warrems like

185
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: the no matter what, you know, they came down to

186
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: McFarland or Snell and that comes on to special teams. Yeah,

187
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 1: you know, So that's it for the offense. We think

188
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 1: the offense is better on paper as a whole on

189
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: paper thing. And I also think they absolutely fit MATC

190
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 1: Canada system, which is much better, which is a big deal.

191
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 1: Which is a big deal. Uh. Looking at the defense.

192
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 1: Defensive line last year at this time was Cam Heyward

193
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 1: Tyson and Lululu, Chris Warmly, Isaiah Bugs, Henry Mondo, Isaiah

194
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 1: louder Milk, Carlos Davis. So two, it wasn't one. He

195
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,319
Speaker 1: was not okay because I was about to say, well

196
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: he was but he wasn't they placed the one I

197
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 1: r because I was going to say that. I was

198
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: prepared to say last year's group was better because of

199
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:37,959
Speaker 1: the immense weight that I put on what I thought

200
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 1: of stuff onto it. One year. Now he went on.

201
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 1: He immediately went on, and it's not close. Yeah, there's

202
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: too many Bugs and Davis and uh, this year's there's

203
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 1: none of them. This Yeah, this year is Lario Can,

204
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 1: Joe b Tyson and Lulu, Cam Heyward, Chris Warmly, Montevious Adams.

205
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 1: Is that a louder Milk to Marvin Leal? Definitely this

206
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 1: group yeah, imbe, I don't think it's close. I'll carry

207
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 1: some weight. Is not a throwaway at all. Where I

208
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,959
Speaker 1: think Mondo and Davis were throwing in loveter Milk. We've

209
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: seen a year of him. I mean yeah, I mean yeah,

210
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, yeah, they're all I guess I would

211
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 1: probably slightly like last year's version of Cam and a

212
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 1: Lulu more than this one, just because they're up in age.

213
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: You know, they're probably declining more than their rising, but

214
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,719
Speaker 1: that's minor compared to the rest of the seven they

215
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 1: have now, I mean Ogen Joe be trading out Ogan

216
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,680
Speaker 1: job for Warmly in the starting lineup. That's a massive

217
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 1: is huge, Yeah, because Warmley is way better than anybody

218
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 1: else behind him on that You know, uh an outside linebacker.

219
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 1: Last year at this time, it was t J. Watt,

220
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: Alex Highsmith, Melvin Ingram, Jamir Jones. People forget Jamir Jones

221
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,559
Speaker 1: was kind of a camp fee initial roster. Now it's

222
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 1: t J Wat, Malik Reid, Alex Highsmith, Derek Tuska last

223
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,679
Speaker 1: year's version. It's close. I mean, Jones and Tosco to

224
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: me are the same. We now know that t J.

225
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: Watt is well, it's coming off the defensive player of

226
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: the year. He was not doing that two years ago.

227
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: We also know what Alex Highsmith is a little bit,

228
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 1: a little bit more about that. My opinion of Ingram

229
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: at the three sixty five days ago, though it was

230
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 1: pretty high, it was really high. I have a pretty

231
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: high pain pick. I have a high opinion of read. Yes,

232
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be a favorite to the Dealer fans.

233
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: The way he plays, he's perfect for what they got.

234
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: I mean he's not gonna piled his way off the team. No, no, no, no,

235
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: I mean it's closed. He's actually happy to be here. Yeah,

236
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: I was pretty darn excited about Ingram. I was too

237
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: four of the season. Here's the thing, though, I looked

238
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 1: up ingram stats from last year. He had two sacks

239
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 1: in five hundred plus it snaps last year. Actually it

240
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: was almost six hundred snaps. He had two sacks. Two sacks.

241
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 1: That's with Pittsburgh and Kansas City. Willie Reed had five

242
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 1: sacks and seven Yeah, and the Chiefs were always winning.

243
00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:00,080
Speaker 1: And he I mean, he didn't see the field one

244
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: in two very often. He was out there in passing

245
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 1: situations or first and tent. You know, you should be

246
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 1: more productive than that. And I think it was a

247
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 1: real lazy analysis by mostly national people that boy, Kansas

248
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 1: City's defense took this huge step forward the day they

249
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,960
Speaker 1: traded for Ingram because they could move Jones from the

250
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: outside in. Well, they should have done that. From me,

251
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 1: that's what they should. I don't care who the outside

252
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 1: I was. Put your best guy where he's your best guy.

253
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 1: Don't weaken two spots, right, They don't ask Cam to

254
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: come off the edge, you know, like that's a coaching error.

255
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: That's not wow. Ingram's here to say the day and

256
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 1: and frankly, the Chiefs D played horrendous. They were all season, Yeah,

257
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 1: they were all They weren't great after Ingram got there. Yeah,

258
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: so I agree with you. I think that was overblown.

259
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: But I'm like you, I I had high hopes for Ingram. Yeah,

260
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 1: you know, I can't. They really got three starters. I can't.

261
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: I can't discount that at all. At cornerback last year,

262
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,439
Speaker 1: it was Joe Hayden, Justin Lane, Cam Sutton, James Pierre

263
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: along with I guess, well, no, I guess he wasn't

264
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: on the letting on Millette, was not on the roster

265
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,079
Speaker 1: at that pick up in like week two or something.

266
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 1: They must have cut him at the started a practice

267
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 1: squad problem. No, he was. They must have brought him

268
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: back to the after maybe when they are to it,

269
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 1: they brought him back. I can't remember exactly I think.

270
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: I mean, again, this is revisionist history, but I think

271
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: three sixty five days ago Matt Williamson thought Hayden was

272
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 1: better than he than I think this anyone on this

273
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 1: group is you know what I mean? I just improve.

274
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: Here's here's this year's group, Levi Wallace, James Pierre, Cam Sutton,

275
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 1: Arthur Milette and the Kello Weatherspoon Where Weatherspoon should have

276
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: been on this runt. I'm looking for mid s. No,

277
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 1: they traded for it was like week three or so.

278
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 1: Now I went back, this is on our lads, I

279
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: went back to nine one. The roster has one. Yeah,

280
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: but no Witherspoon was on that roster, as was milette Um.

281
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 1: But with Spoon had just joined the roster. Now we

282
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: know a little bit more about him. Um, I say,

283
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 1: I like whether Spoon better now than then? Justin Lane

284
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 1: is not there? I mean again we're on there only

285
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: four guys there. Um, they wouldn't have win in the

286
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: season for Aiden Lane, Sutton, Pierre and I think all

287
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 1: there was a starter at this time, right they were

288
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 1: looking at him as that quickly. Now he's their fifth,

289
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: right now he's the guy. Now he's a special teams

290
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: guy exactly. If he doesn't have great special teams value,

291
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: he's not on the team. And who I mean, if

292
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 1: they find someone the waiver wire, he should be the

293
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: first one gone, which to me is why I like

294
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: this group better. I think the depth, the depth is

295
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 1: way better better and the second starter, I mean, you

296
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: were counting on Justin Lane and James Pierre if something

297
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: fighting for a starting job at this point, right and

298
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: Weatherspoon only play only got the opportunity to play because

299
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 1: Pierre failed and his shot at Witherspoon was an active

300
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: for a long time too. Sutton is still the same,

301
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 1: if not better now than then. I must believer because

302
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna do more stuff too. It's a

303
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: lot safety whatever. There's a guy in a website that

304
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: on d K Pittsburgh Sports it just hates Cam Sutton

305
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: doesn't think he can play at all. I don't know.

306
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: I think he's I don't get B minus player ever,

307
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: Like he's never gonna be a B plus. He's never

308
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 1: gonna be a C minus. You know, he's a B

309
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: mindus starting corner that does a lot. And and the

310
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: beauty of of Sutton and even Trey Norwood, Um, they're

311
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 1: almost like the same player at this point. Think you

312
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 1: can put them in a number of different spots. Yeah,

313
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 1: and the same thing with make it Fitzpatrick for that matter.

314
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: I can you can put him on outside corner if

315
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 1: you wanted, if you had to, yeah, um or if

316
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: here and there, you know, yeah, but those guys give

317
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: you so much flexibility that you know, it's really important

318
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: in today's NFL. Um Looking back on it, you know,

319
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: I did this article. People don't remember. I did this

320
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 1: geeky stack pack for the Steelers, and I didn't realize.

321
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 1: I'm Pierre played over eight hundred snapps for the defense

322
00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,280
Speaker 1: last year. He's not gonna approach that this year. Played

323
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: that many, I think, so, I don't think maybe it

324
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: was over five hundred. There was a group over eight hundred.

325
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 1: He was right around five hundred season, Yeah, because after

326
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: a while they just he didn't Yeah, yeah, that's right.

327
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: I don't have it in front of me. But I

328
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 1: was still shocked by the number. I was like, man,

329
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: I always think of him as a part time bottom

330
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 1: of the roster type, and I was a little bit higher.

331
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 1: I was definitely higher on him. Then he's not seeing

332
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 1: that much playing time this year. He's not going to

333
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 1: touch that him. He might play, He'll play three hundred

334
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: special team snaps, right, I mean, if it got to

335
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,680
Speaker 1: that point, they'd call Hayden back or maybe trade. I mean,

336
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: like it's never gonna happen, right, Yeah, I mean he

337
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 1: got nice depth there. They have in my eyes, they

338
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 1: have three outside starting cornerbacks. I agree. I agree, And

339
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 1: it's not like any of the players from this year

340
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 1: or last year is an A lister. Yeah, you know,

341
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:49,400
Speaker 1: but they've got to your point three B minuses, which

342
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: is fine with them, which adds up to a B

343
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: plus probably when you compare it to all the other

344
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 1: corner rooms around. Yeah. Uh. The safety position is count

345
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,719
Speaker 1: Casey and he's on the team right now. He is,

346
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: but he's not on this roster, so it's exactly the same.

347
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 1: I like Edmonds now better than then. Yeah, I mean

348
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 1: the fact that Casey's a Steeler puts him over to me.

349
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,680
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he'll be and he'll be back. Yeah,

350
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 1: he should be. He's gonna be back probably week four,

351
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: six week injury. That's what I said yesterday, right, I

352
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: needed to read the report said I said that yesterday

353
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 1: on this very show. I said he got hurt two

354
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,640
Speaker 1: weeks ago. That brings him back at the end of September.

355
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 1: That's four weeks. I speculated that on the post game show.

356
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 1: I'm like, if he's a broken bone, and I mean,

357
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 1: how bad sex those are six week injuries. He'll be

358
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 1: back and it's not on a leg, right, you know,

359
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 1: if it's a leg injury, that's different, right, So he's

360
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 1: not as big a loss as people think. Yeah, so

361
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: he will be back and you get the factor that

362
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,880
Speaker 1: in and give this nod to the same Well, yeah,

363
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,160
Speaker 1: I think you know, if you put him into the equation,

364
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 1: it certainly does. But slightly unfair argument because we gave

365
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 1: the nod to him last year's never It's just well,

366
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 1: I think running back we kind of did. It was close.

367
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 1: I think we gave the outside linebacker. But it's easier

368
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 1: to like this. I wouldn't do inside linebacker. So you

369
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 1: got like Bush as much as okay, but you had Bush, Schobert,

370
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: Gilbert Splaine, Buddy Johnson, Marcus Allen, and I have to

371
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,359
Speaker 1: come clean. I thought Schobert was the answer when they

372
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 1: signed him. I think Jackson answer when they signed him.

373
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 1: But I'll take this year's group. I'll take Jack. I

374
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:34,120
Speaker 1: would take Jack over Schobert all day long, even even

375
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 1: last year. Even last year, like the Jaguars took Jack

376
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 1: over shober They released Schobert because they had Jack. You

377
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 1: could get one off the Jags because the other. Right now,

378
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: Jack carries a lot of way. But Bush and Splaine

379
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 1: worry me. They do um to a certain degree. Mark

380
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 1: Robinson is promising I like. I like Mark Robinson better

381
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 1: than I liked Gilbert or Buddy Johnson. I was high

382
00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 1: on Gilbert. He's gonna stay Hill. No, I mean, I'm

383
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 1: just trying to remember what I thought of the players then. Yeah,

384
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 1: I thought Bush was ready for a big bounce back,

385
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: but I would stop given what I probably, I would

386
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: probably say I was higher on last year's group, probably

387
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 1: overall overall, because when at this point I thought Bush

388
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,680
Speaker 1: and Shoberg are going to be a higher and star.

389
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 1: I love Bush, I love Bush would at this time

390
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 1: last year, I thought Bush would bounce back and be

391
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: pre devon, pre injury devon Bush, and that didn't happen.

392
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,440
Speaker 1: I was much less worried about the starters then than

393
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 1: I am now. But even then, take Jack overall of them?

394
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean, if we if we were ranking

395
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 1: those guys one to what other seven, Jack will be

396
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,719
Speaker 1: number one. Well, here's the quick question is, would you

397
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 1: take two thousand two Jack over two thousand one Bush? Yes? So,

398
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 1: I don't think we would have if the Jags offered

399
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: Jack for book straight up a year ago, I would

400
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: I think would have said, I think Bush is gonna

401
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 1: bounce back. I would have done that, but Jack was, yeah,

402
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,640
Speaker 1: twenty year old. He's one year older than Devon Buk

403
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 1: and he's been a high level player. Yeah, I still

404
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,360
Speaker 1: take last year's group just because I would rank them

405
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 1: this year. Jack, last year Bush, last year Showbert was

406
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: where I thought that was wrong, but that's what I thought. Yeah,

407
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 1: I would agree with that. I would agree to. Not

408
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 1: so sure what's next to Jack. So, I mean there's

409
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 1: a couple of groups there that we would take. We

410
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 1: felt better about last year than we did. I do

411
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: think this exercise always we waited to the now. Yeah,

412
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 1: you know, well there's a recency, but the recency bias

413
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 1: and unless you're the Rams or the Bengals or someone

414
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 1: that had an awesome season and you know, like the

415
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,719
Speaker 1: Ben's Bengals that you didn't see coming, you know. I mean,

416
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 1: I'm sure the Jets would be the same way, the Jags,

417
00:21:58,040 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: I mean, just about any team. Well, I guess the

418
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 1: wouldn't that. I mean the other thing about that is

419
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 1: is that you you know, we know more about those

420
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 1: players now than we did then. Now there's also to

421
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 1: your point about about Hayward and Lulu, Well they're a

422
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: year older now, so you know, there's there's if they

423
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 1: fall off, we feel like we should have seen it coming,

424
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 1: at least more so than a year ago, you know.

425
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 1: And and I was coming off an injury. Yeah, you know,

426
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 1: so okay, that's that's a fun thing to do, though,

427
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 1: it is, and it's always a really good exercise to

428
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,440
Speaker 1: remember what it was one year ago because everyone's optimistic

429
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 1: this time. I mean every team the league is optimistic

430
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 1: right now. Because that's what's so great about the league.

431
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: It's easy to look at that team and be like,

432
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,440
Speaker 1: why are we so excited about their and show birth

433
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 1: And I think some of it's the guys that you

434
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 1: see day after day after day, and the coaches praise

435
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:45,680
Speaker 1: him and you see him make plays and oh it

436
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 1: one starting job. He's an up and coming player, you know,

437
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 1: and the league's hard. Yeah, no, it is. Subscribe to
