Speaker 1: Century Link. And I'm in a good mood today, Paul.

7
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:22,960
Speaker 1: You know why? Why Because the Hawks are three and oh, man,

8
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 1: the Hawks. It might not look pretty, but they're three

9
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 1: and oh. We can't complain to well, we can't complain.

10
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,840
Speaker 1: We're probably gonna complain in a minute, right, but they're

11
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 1: three and oh they're getting done. It ain't pretty on

12
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,959
Speaker 1: one side of the ball, but you'll take it, right, Yeah,

13
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 1: I don't know if we'll complain. We're here to try

14
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 1: to fix it. And you look, you got your Laker

15
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,879
Speaker 1: jersey on. You had Kobe. You know. You and I

16
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 1: we're Laker fans. You're a little bit younger, so you're

17
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 1: okay with all these free agents coming in. I'm a

18
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:51,920
Speaker 1: little more old school, you know. But three and O.

19
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 1: And I also notice that they change the billboard or

20
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 1: the bump whatever they call. It's now bumping Paul. So

21
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 1: now you really feel good. We're three in now. Our

22
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: offense is dynamic, it's fun. We can do anything with

23
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: the football. Defensively, it's kind of fun to watch. Now

24
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 1: who you just never know what you're gonna get. The

25
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,479
Speaker 1: first half actually hasn't been bad this year for him.

26
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: I was going to looking for some statistics and where's

27
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: the breakdown, and it's, my goodness, it's it's the fourth quarter. Yeah. Yeah,

28
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 1: we're giving up almost two hundred and twenty five, two

29
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty yards every game in the fourth quarter.

30
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: The second half. We're averaging over three hundred yards a

31
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: game in the second half. The first half, we're there.

32
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what makes it. The offense get the

33
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 1: leads for them, they just there's just too many mistakes.

34
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: There's too many big plays, and we've got, you know,

35
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: our foot on their throat and we get a way

36
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: to really to finish the game, and they just got

37
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: to fix it. Now you've been watching film. You notice

38
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: you said two hundred thirty yards in the fourth quarters.

39
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: What we're giving up on average. Is there anything that's

40
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: happens dramatically or is it? Is it the circumstances to

41
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: where the Hawks start playing a little softer defense. What

42
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: do you think it is that allows those numbers to

43
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: go up in the fourth. It's a good question, is

44
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: you know, when you watch film, it's never as good

45
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 1: or as bad as you think it is. You have,

46
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: you think you have a great game. And I won't

47
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: go into that too much. I'm watching the game. And

48
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: we blitzed when they threw forty percent of the time,

49
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: we charted it twenty three times, we sent five guys

50
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,359
Speaker 1: or more. Three times we did his own blitz where

51
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: he brought Jamal Adams and dropped some defensive ends out.

52
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,359
Speaker 1: And you know, and I think Bobby and Jamal were

53
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: blitz And I don't call that necessary blitz. Itaus just

54
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: four a man rush, but it gives them something different.

55
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: But if you just take those twenty three off the

56
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 1: fifty seven attempts here, around forty percent, that's a lot.

57
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: And there's times we're on coverage and they make a

58
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: good throw, and there's other times I'm like, okay, you know,

59
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 1: we made them throw some balls away. To me. The

60
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 1: big ones is, you know, we we got beat over

61
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: the top twice, you know by Trey. We also had

62
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: shot get beat when we had them pinned down there right,

63
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: and we took a double digit lead again, and then

64
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: three plays later they're right back in the game. We

65
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: had a busted defense where they had kJ Wright on

66
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: Wilson and kid out of Boise State who's very fast.

67
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know at that point. As soon

68
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: as whatever it is going on, you audible out of

69
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: your blitz and you say we're going to a three

70
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: deep zone. We used to call it yellow yellow, yellow, blue,

71
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,679
Speaker 1: blue blue. I don't care what you do, but at

72
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: that point it's off. We got a bad mismatch, and

73
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: we saw that mismatch. You know, Trey got beat over

74
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: the top. We just got to take those kind of

75
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 1: plays away. They ran another one, a deep, deep, crossing route.

76
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: I think it was a zone. It was hard to tell,

77
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: but I think it was, even though Shack followed him.

78
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: And there's another, you know, couple forty yard I call

79
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: him bus plays. And those crossing plays make sense to

80
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: me that they're big because that's how you beat his zone, right,

81
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 1: You cross a guy through different thirds of the field

82
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: or different halves and make these guys communicate. And I

83
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: will look at the film. I don't see a lot

84
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: of communication when guys are crossing the zones, so it's

85
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: almost like these guys are blind. So it makes sense

86
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 1: to me in the moment. It's frustrating because you see

87
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: Wilson make a big player, like how did this happen?

88
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: You watch the film, is like, Okay, well they're probably

89
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 1: in a zone. They're being forced to communicate, and I

90
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 1: don't see a lot of communication going on. So I

91
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: would like to think it's an easy fix. Maybe just

92
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: you know, in and in and in. You know, you

93
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: play defense. What's what's the call? They are yelling in?

94
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: What are you calling? I'm yelling in? But it's you

95
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 1: know something, is it the rush? Is it the back seven?

96
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: And how they're playing zones? Is it? You know? We do?

97
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: We have the players there, you know? Is it scheme?

98
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 1: It's it's it's all of it. You're not gonna fix

99
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: it overnight. I mean we are. We are not historic

100
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 1: run right now. If we don't fix it, they will

101
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 1: have the most yards in the history of the NFL

102
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 1: at the end of the year of the pace they're

103
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 1: going on buy about eight hundred yards. So we're gonna

104
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 1: see a reversion to the mean it's gonna come back.

105
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 1: We played three phenomenal offenses, three Pro Bowl quarterbacks. We

106
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: got some tough ones coming up. It should get better

107
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: in the past defense. But here's what I will say.

108
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,720
Speaker 1: They just gotta start getting a little more of vanilla

109
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: and be really good. What are we hanging our hat on.

110
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: I don't know what that is right now. Well, now

111
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: I got some good news and some bad news for you.

112
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 1: Good news Hawks at three and now, yeah, more good news.

113
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 1: Alton Robinson had a day, Ryan Neil came off the bench,

114
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,239
Speaker 1: had a day. Didn't think he was gonna play on Sunday.

115
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: Jordan Simmons came off the bench, and how to play.

116
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: Good news. Bad news is those guys got on the

117
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 1: field because Jamal Adams is banged up, Damien Lewis, Jordan Brooks,

118
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 1: Quintin dumbar Lano Hill wasn't active, Ethan posting, Mike you potty,

119
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 1: they're not immune to this injury bug that's going on

120
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Three. Now, I'm gonna go back to

121
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 1: the good news. I think one thing we got de

122
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: you know, even bringing guys off the practice God squad.

123
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: You know you mentioned Robinson there, who had a great

124
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: camp and then maybe you know, tailed off a little

125
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 1: bit and got his opportunity last week two weeks ago.

126
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: I mean he had some good rushes, yeah, in a

127
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 1: not just hustle ones. I mean actually made a move,

128
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,279
Speaker 1: pushed the guy, came inside for the sack. Our best rushes,

129
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: by the way, bump three man rushes at the end

130
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 1: of the game, I mean we got We did get

131
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 1: ten quarterback hits. So it's not like it was him

132
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: standing back there all day long. He wasn't. Again, I

133
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 1: think you take away the bus. I thought we played

134
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 1: pretty well the first half. We actually played pretty well

135
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: in the third quarter, and then three plays at the

136
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: end of the third quarter. The fourth quarter is just man,

137
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: I have no answers. We just have to play better.

138
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,720
Speaker 1: So now let's talk about some positive. Russell Wilson is

139
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: playing at a high level. Five touchdowns last week to

140
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: five different receivers. DK has a mishap early in the game,

141
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,479
Speaker 1: bounces back Tyler Law. He continues just to be just

142
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 1: the most steady personality and performer on this football team

143
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: other than Russell Wilson. And we still haven't seen the

144
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 1: tight ends really break out yet. Greg Olson had a

145
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: touchdown the very first game, Hollister had a touchdown. But

146
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 1: we haven't seen a really dominant or just impressive performance

147
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 1: by this tight end room yet. And it's one of

148
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 1: the deepest rooms on this team. Yeah, I think the

149
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 1: running backs, the tight ends, if if you really work

150
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: hard to take away our secondary, they're gonna be in there,

151
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: particularly Man and Matt If you'd say, hey, we're gonna

152
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 1: you know, really favor those guys with the safeties, Yeah,

153
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 1: then I think we had a chance to exploit the

154
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: linebackers and and that's all good. Russell Wilson five touchdowns,

155
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: you know, on a historic pace as well, didn't have

156
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: his best game. I know, that's crazy. That's and what

157
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: we talked about this after the game. He actually had

158
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: a phenomenal game. What he did was he missed on

159
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: some throws we normally know he's gonna make. We had

160
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: a third down and three into the flat he hopped

161
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: it to I think it was Tyler Lockettum. He had

162
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: another one I can't remember, throws up. We're going, oh,

163
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: he's he's not gonna miss that throw. Well, guess what,

164
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: he's actually human human. He had a phenomenal game, you know,

165
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: seventy or seventy percent completion right at it? Five touchdowns? Look,

166
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: do you take that all day? But it could have

167
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: been better, and it could have been six interceptions. And

168
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 1: I bet you DK Metcalf never does that again. No,

169
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: did you guys have a chance to talk with DK

170
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: or what did Pete hapen? Now? Didn't Pete said that? Um,

171
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 1: he obviously knew that he had messed up. That's something

172
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 1: that they preached, finishing the paint. It's what Pete says,

173
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 1: That's what they mean. Hey, you're going through the end zone.

174
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 1: You finished through the line. That's football, one on one right,

175
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: finished through the night, not to the line now before

176
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: the line, through the line. And maybe he was filling

177
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 1: himself a little bit and got caught up in a moment.

178
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,839
Speaker 1: But I don't think that's gonna happen again. But now

179
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,599
Speaker 1: these guys are going down to Florida. Yeah, there's a

180
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: guy named Fitzpatrick out there who has had great games

181
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 1: as a buccaneer. I think there was a week, I

182
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: think it was last year where he had like four

183
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 1: back to back four hundred yard games. He's shown that

184
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: he can get it done, but he's also shown that

185
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: he can turn this thing over. And I look at

186
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 1: this offense and I'm like, Okay, DeVante Parker, who's not

187
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: a really fast receiver. They should be able to lock

188
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: him down. Just sicky. I'm sorry if I'm saying his

189
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: name roun the tight end who's leading that team reception

190
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: not to impressive, Miles gas and who's a good, you know,

191
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: local hero, solid football player, but not a guy who

192
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 1: should worry about. This is the game that they locked

193
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:33,959
Speaker 1: things down. I hope so, But that was a really

194
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:40,079
Speaker 1: wimpy way of saying I hope so. Miami played the

195
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 1: Patriots top first game of the season. Met fact, if

196
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 1: his pastor doesn't throw those two interceptions in the red zone,

197
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,319
Speaker 1: they got a chance to beat him. They lose to

198
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,559
Speaker 1: twenty one to ten or whatever the number was. They

199
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: lose the Buffalo thirty one, twenty eight. They're in that game,

200
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:56,439
Speaker 1: and then they hammer Jacksonville last week. If he doesn't

201
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,439
Speaker 1: throw any interceptions, if he's gonna go and complete sixteen

202
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: out of twenty or eighteen out of twenty five, this

203
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: is gonna be a tough football game. They do have

204
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: some players on defense. They got some players, and coming

205
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: up next we'll dive into the Seahawk Week four opponent

206
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:14,640

212
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 1: Is there anything about Miami that you disliked? The humidity

213
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 1: at times? But even then I'll take it because the

214
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 1: evenings are so special. Man. That is a that's a

215
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 1: scary town because I liked it so much. You know,

216
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,679
Speaker 1: Let's say, oh I could probably get in trouble here,

217
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: Not really, honey. But now it's just you know, weather

218
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: and it's fine. And you know what blew my mind

219
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: about Miami. I remember walking into the ocean and it

220
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: was warm. I'm from Cali. The Pacific Ocean is coldest. Heck,

221
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: I walked into that ocean. I'm like, all right, I

222
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 1: can get used to this. All right. Well, talking about Miami,

223
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:20,559
Speaker 1: we're bringing in Armando Salgaro. Armando, how you doing you're

224
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 1: talking about the Atlantic Ocean seventy degrees Armando, That's that's fake.

225
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,319
Speaker 1: What do you guys are heating up that water we're

226
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 1: doing over there? Yeah? We uh, you know, you guys

227
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: put ice in your water. We we kind of put

228
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 1: heaters in our water because we you know, we got

229
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 1: thin blood over here. What can I tell you? Hey,

230
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: we'll take it. We'll take it. Let's talk about these Dolphins.

231
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,959
Speaker 1: Second year head coach Brian Flores. What is his perception

232
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 1: to the public out there? Do you guys you're feeling

233
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 1: what he's doing? What are your thoughts? Well, so it's

234
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: a work in progress. Right. They were five and eleven

235
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: last year, and they're under five hundred again this year

236
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 1: at one and two, and they're underdogs at home against

237
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,719
Speaker 1: the Seahawks, and next week they're gonna be on the

238
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 1: dogs on the road against San Francisco. So I think

239
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: folks in South Florida are kind of holding their breath.

240
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: They understand that this is not supposed to be, you know,

241
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl team by any stretch. This might not

242
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: even be a playoff team by any stretch. But it

243
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 1: should be a representative team and a competitive team. And

244
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: that's going to be decided when they play teams like Seattle,

245
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: and they play teams like San Francisco and they go

246
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,839
Speaker 1: to Arizona. It's gonna be decided, you know, as we

247
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:43,439
Speaker 1: move along. If they don't compete in those games, if

248
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: they get blown out, if they're you know, outclassed, people

249
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: are going to start looking sideways that flow. Ermando Gay,

250
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: thanks for jumping on with there's that back east ten

251
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 1: o'clock right now. Appreciate the late jump with us. But

252
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: on film, they've looked good. I wouldn't watch the Patriot

253
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 1: game if not for those two interceptions really towards the

254
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 1: in the red zone there. I mean, they got a

255
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: chance to win that they got thirty one twenty eight

256
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: Buffalo and then they blow out Jacksonville. So this is competitive.

257
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: It really seems like it comes down to him Fitzpatrick

258
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 1: not throwing interceptions. Yeah, you know, in the first game

259
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: he threw three interceptions and that was terrible. But the

260
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 1: fact is that the defense gave up one hundred and

261
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 1: seventy eight rushing yards and so it didn't The score

262
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: wasn't bad, but it didn't feel like at any point

263
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: that the Patriots were in danger of losing that game.

264
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,199
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, they fumbled at the one

265
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,760
Speaker 1: yard line and out of the end zone and they

266
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: missed like a thirty yard field goal. So it was

267
00:13:56,040 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 1: it was one of those games where it didn't it

268
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,559
Speaker 1: didn't feel like the Dolphins were really in it as

269
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 1: close as a score. And the Buffalo game was the

270
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: same thing. I mean, the Dolphins are One thing I

271
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: will give the Dolphins is they do not quit. They

272
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 1: were down by a lot, by seventeen points to the

273
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: Bills in the second half, and they just you know,

274
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 1: kept fighting, and they went down by a touchdown to

275
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 1: the Bills, and of course, after they went down by

276
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 1: a touchdown, Josh Allen throws the forty six yard bomb

277
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 1: and now it's a fourteen point game again. And even then,

278
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: the Dolphins scored late, you know, with like a minute

279
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: to play to make it feel close. So they don't

280
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 1: they don't quit, they don't give up. But they're not

281
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: there yet. It seems like, all right, Armando. I went

282
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 1: to Washington State University. It's on the eastern side of

283
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 1: the state. You guys have a guy who went to

284
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 1: my rival Universe Washington and Miles Gaskin. Though I am

285
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 1: a coug and I'm with them with the other guys,

286
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 1: I think our fans will love to know what are

287
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: your thoughts of this guy? Are you guys feeling him? Yeah?

288
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 1: I mean he was a surprise. You gotta understand, he

289
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 1: was a seventh round draft pick last year and he

290
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 1: didn't get a whole lot of runs. So he was

291
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 1: inactive eight games and I think he only got thirty

292
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 1: six carries off season before he went on injured reserve.

293
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: Coming into training camp, Matt Brita had been traded for

294
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 1: The Dolphins gave up a fifth round pick for him.

295
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 1: They paid Jordan Howard, a former first round pick. They

296
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: paid him four million dollars a year as a free agent,

297
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: and everybody's expecting those two guys to be, you know,

298
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: the lead backs. And here comes Miles Gasking, seemingly out

299
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 1: of nowhere in his second year, and he's done everything

300
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: that the staffs asked he uh, you know, mostly he

301
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 1: doesn't have many plays where he loses yardage. He doesn't

302
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 1: turn the ball over, and he's consistent and has he

303
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 1: broken a seventy yard run? No? Has he broken a

304
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 1: fifty yard No? Not at this point, but you know,

305
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 1: he is he is their most consistent back and right

306
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: now he's their best back. You know you got you

307
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: got DeVante Parkers. And there's some people that were familiar

308
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: with here in the Northwest, but talk about some guys

309
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 1: our listeners don't know about that they should be looking

310
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: after this Sunday. Well, their tight end is Mike Kisiki,

311
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: and so he's he's a tight end by name only.

312
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 1: He's really a six foot six, two hundred and forty

313
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 1: five pounds slot receiver. That's how the Dolphins use him. Basically,

314
00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 1: He's not a blocking in line height end by any means,

315
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 1: but he runs four six and when they match him

316
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 1: up at six six running for six against the linebacker,

317
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 1: it's typically something of a mismatch. And he is Ryan

318
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick's pet. And the reason that I say that is getsick.

319
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 1: He's a really young player who basically just decided to

320
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 1: be Fitzpatrick's puppy dog and follow him everywhere and do

321
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 1: everything he said. And it's worked because he's gotten better

322
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: and Fitzpatrick throws him the ball a lot. So that's

323
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 1: one guy that should be watched and the obviously the

324
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:50,160
Speaker 1: Seahawks should be aware of the Dolphins are a very

325
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:54,440
Speaker 1: big team on the outside. You mentioned DeVante Parker, he's

326
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 1: six three. They've got Preston Williams in his second year,

327
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 1: he's six's five. Those their two receivers. So on the field,

328
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 1: they're gonna put six three DeVante Parker who had over

329
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:10,400
Speaker 1: a thousand yards last year, six to five, Preston Williams

330
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,880
Speaker 1: on the other side, and six six Mike Kisiki at

331
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 1: tight end or the flot however you want to call them.

332
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: And it's a it's a mismatch with a lot of teams.

333
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 1: That's why they're starting to, you know, crank it up

334
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,880
Speaker 1: a little bit on offense. Sounds like they're going big

335
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 1: or going home. Now, Armando, I got a regional question

336
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 1: for you. So you guys are in Florida. We're in Washington.

337
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 1: It's lockdown up here, Armando. You can't do nothing. Everything

338
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 1: closes at ten o'clock. Florida is a little more wide open.

339
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:46,440
Speaker 1: COVID's going down. Are there any concerns about players extracurricular

340
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:51,639
Speaker 1: activities during the football season. I think the Tennessee Titans

341
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 1: situation has been it's bad for the Tennessee Titans and

342
00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:00,399
Speaker 1: it's bad for those folks that are contracting it. But

343
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,439
Speaker 1: I think it's an eye opener for the rest of

344
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: the league, including everybody in Florida, that we're not out

345
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 1: of the woods. It's not over. You have to be

346
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:13,199
Speaker 1: vigilant and with the football teams, with the fall of

347
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,360
Speaker 1: sports teams really, but the football teams who are not

348
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 1: in a bubble. It really does come down to you

349
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: are responsible as a singular individual for an entire organization. Potentially,

350
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 1: you don't want to be that guy that contracts the

351
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:39,159
Speaker 1: disease and then spreads it to everyone else in the

352
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: organization or a dozen other people in the organization, or

353
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 1: even half a dozen people in the organization, and suddenly

354
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 1: you're responsible for your team losing to buy and having

355
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:57,640
Speaker 1: to postpone a game. That is a responsibility that has

356
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: been made abundantly clear, at least within the Dolphins organization,

357
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: that don't be that guy. Don't be the irresponsible one

358
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 1: that is, you know, the super spreader, so to speak.

359
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:19,440
Speaker 1: And yeah, we're we're more open than Washington, but we're not,

360
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: you know, wide open. We're in phase three right now.

361
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 1: We went into phase three last week. There are restaurants open,

362
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: there are you know, there are bars open. Two and

363
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 1: they're not open at full capacity, but they're open at

364
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 1: half capacity and they have to close up by eleven o'clock.

365
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 1: Having said that, these young guys on the Dolphins, I

366
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 1: don't believe that they're in those bars at any time

367
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 1: during the day. Well, that's good to hear our mind that.

368
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,880
Speaker 1: We appreciate you taking time. Now. My wife is Latin,

369
00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna try to say your name the way

370
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,439
Speaker 1: I think she wants me to say it. Okay, it

371
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 1: was nice cashing up with you, Automando sad Guero. Please

372
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:09,879
Speaker 1: have a good one. Thanks, appreciate you. I dig it,

373
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 1: thank you. I appreciate you. Any well, no problem. And

374
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 1: I was going all right, that was Armando coming to

375
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 1: right there. That was a little flat. That's good flat.

376
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 1: All right. Now, Hey wife, you've been listening. I was

377

384
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: Freddie Swain. Freddy, how are you doing? I'm good. How

385
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 1: are you doing? Hey man, I'm all right, I'm all right.

386
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 1: Oh I got two wide receivers to now you know

387
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 1: how it goes down. I'm a safety. So I'm gonna

388
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 1: sit back and listen for a while. Hey, Freddy, when

389
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 1: they drafted you, the first thing I did I looked

390
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 1: at film. I'm like, all right, let's see what Freddie does.

391
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 1: And this is what I saw on film. I saw

392
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 1: a guy who one loves to compete, and two when

393
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,880
Speaker 1: the ball is in your hands, you just get electric.

394
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,159
Speaker 1: It's like you turn into a running back. What do

395
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: you feel is the best part of your game? Uh?

396
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 1: Probably my physical nature. Um. I take blocking very seriously. Um,

397
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 1: I actually take more. I probably take more pride and

398
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 1: then actually kept in the ball. You know what I'm saying.

399
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,719
Speaker 1: Because it's a lot of times where receivers don't have

400
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 1: the ball, you know, I try to make my presence

401
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 1: known with it without the ball. Well, yes, I watched DK.

402
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 1: I mean he takes it pretty serious too. I mean

403
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 1: the first playing the game last week and obviously what

404
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,639
Speaker 1: he did to give him more that that you. You know,

405
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 1: obviously guys it's important, but how much do you guys

406
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: talk about the importance of blocking in the running game. Um,

407
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:53,880
Speaker 1: we got that as one of our goals and try

408
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: to get so many as a unit and compete with

409
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: that as far as everything else. So, um so, like

410
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 1: if I see DK out there trying to get one

411
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: amazing block, I'm gonna try to get too. And I

412
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 1: think that just it lightens up the room. And like

413
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 1: if you watch the game, Tea Luck actually was doing

414
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 1: it too, So um, I think it just it makes

415
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 1: our past game aggressive as well as our run game.

416
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: Hey Freddy, when I you know, I had a cup

417
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,200
Speaker 1: of coffee in the NFL and I scored one touchdown

418
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:27,959
Speaker 1: and when they called the play in the huddle, I

419
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,159
Speaker 1: knew I was gonna get my time to shine. I

420
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 1: ran a shallow cross similar to what you did when

421
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 1: you're in the huddle and you heard that play and

422
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: you line up and you saw the coverage where you're like, oh, yeah,

423
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 1: this is me. I'm about to get this. So all

424
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,879
Speaker 1: week we were we were throwing it the teeth. So

425
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 1: when we when we go to line up, I've seen

426
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 1: him pointing like they had already found tea, so it

427
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 1: was pointing at them. Oh I might I might have

428
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: a shot here. I went out and I ran up

429
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:59,679
Speaker 1: under and obviously they dropped me. So man, uh, it

430
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,479
Speaker 1: was pretty exact. Was a slow motion for you? I mean,

431
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 1: did you once you caught the rock? I mean you

432
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: probably have one guy who might have met you at

433
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: the gold line? What are your what are your thoughts

434
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:14,399
Speaker 1: when you have the balling hands? Beat him there? You know,

435
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,119
Speaker 1: you just listening to John Schneider Pete Carroll. Not to

436
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,399
Speaker 1: give you too much love as a rookie, but you

437
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 1: know they say some pretty high praises on you. Um,

438
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 1: I mean that's got to make you feel pretty good.

439
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: They do it? Do it? Let me ask you this,

440
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 1: So you're you're the man at Florida. What's the difference?

441
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 1: You know, just describe it in Florida, where there's a

442
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: play called but it's really designed for you, versus where

443
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: you are here now with Russell and that man. Maybe

444
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: there's a play design for somebody, but the defense dictates.

445
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: But is every receiver live in the passing game compared

446
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: to maybe where you're at you when you're at Florida,

447
00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,159
Speaker 1: of course, Um, I think like that's why I I

448
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:04,440
Speaker 1: love his offense. Um, we don't have a certain spot

449
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,360
Speaker 1: where the ball is gonna go, you know, all all

450
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,679
Speaker 1: the routes alive and coach, because it's all like like

451
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 1: my play for instance, when I scored, I didn't get

452
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 1: that ball all week, you know, and um, it just

453
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: goes to show you that all all the players alive.

454
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. So just run your route

455
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,320

469
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 1: we always get that. Hey, Freddie, coming into camp, you

470
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 1: had to compete with d K Tyler Lockett. Demo Door said,

471
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: is there, John or Suwa? Is there? I mean, what

472
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 1: was your mentality going into camp? And did you it

473
00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: was there ever a point where you felt like, Okay,

474
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:22,439
Speaker 1: I might make this football team. My mentality going into camp, man,

475
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 1: you know, I just always like I played a game

476
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 1: with a chip, you know, and I think a chip

477
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,719
Speaker 1: came out even more, you know, watching all them teams

478
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 1: pick up receivers and pick up guys. It really put

479
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 1: a chip on my shoulder. So I told myself, if

480
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: I get the opportunity to show what I can, what

481
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 1: I'm capable of, give them no reason for you to

482
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:45,679
Speaker 1: get cut. You know what I'm saying, make it something

483
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: that they need to do, or just never put it

484
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,879
Speaker 1: on myself, whether that be effort or knowing the players

485
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 1: or things like that. Don't give them a reason on

486
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 1: my end. So and I think that's how I approached

487
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 1: the game. And and I came out Forturs. You talk

488
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,679
Speaker 1: about knowing the game. We spoke to Pete Carroll and

489
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,439
Speaker 1: people in the camp and they said, Freddie knows every spot.

490
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 1: We can line them up right now we're comfortable with them.

491
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: Has I always been a part of your gammer? Did

492
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 1: you say, look, this is what I need to do

493
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 1: to make this ball club. I'm gonna learn every spot. Uh.

494
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 1: At Florida, I was kind of like, I kind of

495
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:21,159
Speaker 1: like new Spot by Spot, But here I made it.

496
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: I made it my job, you know, to understand everybody's routing,

497
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 1: everybody's role in depths and split. So um, I kind

498
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 1: of I would say I made it my I really

499
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 1: made it my job to do that here. And it's

500
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 1: it's a job. But it's a long day for you guys.

501
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 1: So take me inside the locker room. More specific, take

502
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 1: me inside the meeting room. Just the wide receivers. Give

503
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 1: me some personalities here. Who's who's the life of the

504
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 1: party with with those wide receivers? Uh, I would say,

505
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 1: I would say me me what we all joke, you know,

506
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: like we all love to have fun. But I would say,

507
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: DK my demo and T luck. I think we get

508
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 1: the party started and then the guys to tag along

509
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 1: like and Nate and sounds of man we have like

510
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 1: our meeting, maybe maybe it'd be cool. You know, we

511
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 1: laugh all the time. We joke, you know, what I'm saying.

512
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 1: But when it's trying to get ships, we get ships.

513
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 1: But as far as is the room, you couldn't ask

514
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 1: for a better room to be in. Yeah, there's been

515
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,440
Speaker 1: some some meetum rooms where you know, rookies were treated

516
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 1: like rookies, you know, go get my you know water.

517
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: Back then it was donuts. I don't think they feed

518
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: your donuts anymore. And then it transitioned a little bit

519
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 1: where you know, once they're here, we're trying to win.

520
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 1: We don't treat him as rookies. We treat him as professionals.

521
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 1: What's that like for you? Um, it's good. You know,

522
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: I had to had a rookie duty. I had to

523
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 1: buy food. But other than that, man, they do a

524
00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 1: good job of not making it rookie verse. Bet. You know,

525
00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 1: it's it's where a team where family and we just go.

526
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 1: It ain't right by the way, they should make you

527
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: go get the food, but they should never make the

528
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 1: rookies buy the food. I've always struggled with that. So

529
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 1: you tell, you tell Tyler Locket he needs to be buying,

530
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 1: but you'll go get it right. Hey, Freddie, I'm I'm

531
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 1: from Cali. I'm from southern California. I remember moving up

532
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 1: to Washington and seeing my first winter and it was

533
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 1: raining and stuff, and I'm like, what did I do? Now?

534
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 1: You went to school in Florida. Has it been an adjustment?

535
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 1: You know, playing your your time in Florida and coming

536
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 1: up to Washington and dealing with Actually, you've had it

537
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 1: pretty good so far. You're just about to really see

538
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 1: what Washington is all about. Um, are you prepared for somebody?

539
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 1: It's not that service as to what everybody's talking about.

540
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: But the other day it was pretty. It was pretty.

541
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 1: It was kind of cold. I said, I ain't gonna

542
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: it was kind of cold, and they said, we ain't

543
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: easy nothing yet. Head now, just just just remember what

544
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: the sun looks like. That's the real trick because it

545
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 1: disappears for a while. Hey, well, Freddy, we appreciate you

546
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,240
Speaker 1: taking time out of your day. My advice would be

547
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,080
Speaker 1: get a rain jacket. Is going to rain, so get

548
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 1: your rain jacket. But and love what you're doing. I'm

549
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 1: a receiver, so you know I'm rooting for you. Man,

560
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,479
Speaker 1: You know. Honestly, this Denver Jet game, which is terrible,

561
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: it's actually a little bit better than I thought. Thanks

562
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 1: to Brett Ruppian. He's he's actually doing a great job tonight.

563
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 1: Is that is that at Boise State? Right? Boyse Now,

564
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: my daughter went to Boise. I know, I know the defference.

565
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 1: At least it's competitive. John. We we were actually talking

566
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: from my high school to college to the NFL. Every

567
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: game I've ever played for at the end of the

568
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 1: year met something. I've never been on a losing team

569
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 1: as a player, and I'm watching the Jets going, God,

570
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: how bad would that be? And then Bump said, oh,

571
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 1: I know, I went to Washington State. I was, Oh,

572
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 1: I didn't say all that, but I didn't go to

573
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 1: a bowl game. Yes, okay, I didn't say that. Anyway, John,

574
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 1: We're not We're not gonna waste your time with all

575
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 1: this nonsense. John, Is this a game you expect or

576
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 1: the Hawks need to win convincingly? Or should we kind

577
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 1: of just settle down and say, Okay, they are who

578
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,160
Speaker 1: they are. It's gonna be close, just like every other year.

579
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 1: And his defense isn't really gonna shut anybody out. No,

580
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 1: i'man this is a game where I think the defense

581
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: has to really step up and you know, not allow

582
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 1: the yards and things that happened in the first three

583
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 1: weeks of the season against three good quarterbacks, because they're

584
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 1: taking on what I think you consider one of the

585
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 1: best backup quarterbacks in the league. He just happens to

586
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: be starting in Ryan Fitzpatrick. And so it's a matter

587
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 1: where you say, Okay, you can't give up thirty points,

588
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 1: you can't give up twenty seven points. You probably have

589
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: to keep it in the teams. I mean, you can't

590
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: let him move the football and too well, because again,

591
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 1: I mean, they got a bad offensive line, you know,

592
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 1: four or five news starters and the only returning starters,

593
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 1: the worst blocker on their offensive line, Jesse Davis. And

594
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 1: do they really have enough at wide receiver. I'd say no.

595
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: And you know, Miles Gaskin is doing a nice job

596
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 1: behind a bad offensive line running the football. So this

597
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:51,440
Speaker 1: is one where if they give anything more than seventeen points,

598
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 1: it's not a good day, you know. I think the

599
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: one concern is, you know, they got some heights, you know,

600
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 1: the big tall receivers, big tall tight ends. In their

601
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: average you know, a couple of you know, almost fifteen

602
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 1: yards per catch. It's it's the injuries the Seahawks have,

603
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 1: you know, And does that close the gap going into

604
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 1: this game on you know, the Seahawks normally you would

605
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,640
Speaker 1: think would win by double digits. Yeah, it closes the gap,

606
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 1: There's no question about it, because you know, when you

607
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: come out with the six to eight injuries they suffered

608
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 1: on Sunday, and you know, figuring that they're not going

609
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 1: to have Jordan Brooks, they probably won't have Jamal Adams.

610
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 1: We don't know about Chris Carson. They have a chance

611
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 1: to have him, but he's not going to be in

612
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 1: his normal role because they're gonna have to limit the

613
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 1: number of carries for him. But it's a matter that

614
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 1: And again I just used the San Francisco example because

615
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 1: when you look at Miami, you know, they're kind of

616
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 1: in the same vein as the Jets, the Giants and

617
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: some of the bad teams in football, you know, Cincinnati, Jacksonville,

618
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:46,720
Speaker 1: and so it's okay, So it's like, this is a

619
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: winnable game. Now, weather conditions could be tough because it's

620
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 1: gonna be what eighty six degrees, with the twenty mile

621
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,719
Speaker 1: an hour wins and all that stuff, you know, this

622
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 1: is a trapped game. But really, I mean, if you're

623
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 1: a good Seattle team, which they are, you know they

624
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 1: should be able to pretty much dominate this game. Hold

625
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,720
Speaker 1: down Ryan Fitzpatrick, hold down the offense. And of course,

626
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 1: you know, again you're going against one of the worst

627
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 1: defenses in football, so you should be able to have

628
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 1: come out of this with a pretty good outcome. All right, John,

629
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 1: let's go around the league, around the NFL. Now, the

630
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 1: Bears have themselves a situation. Mitchell Trubi truebisk truebisky. He's

631
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,319
Speaker 1: sitting down now. Nick Foles has taken his job? Is

632
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,719
Speaker 1: this long overdue? Was it the right timing? How? How

633
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 1: would you have handled this situation and do you think

634
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,760
Speaker 1: Nick Foles will be the Bears quarterback for the foreseeable future.

635
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 1: I do, and I think it was handled correctly because

636
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 1: you know, the difference would be if you would have

637
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 1: given Nick Foles a job and literally he didn't do

638
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:44,799
Speaker 1: enough in the preseason, not that there was much he

639
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 1: could do because again there was no preseason games and

640
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 1: everything was all in practice and all that stuff, so

641
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 1: there wasn't enough that he could do to establish himself

642
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: over mitche Trubisky. But the difference is going to be,

643
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 1: you know, if you would go with Foles, he gets hurt,

644
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,440
Speaker 1: you go back to Trubisky, then there's going to be

645
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: no confidence in the team. They're not going to be

646
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,799
Speaker 1: able to buy into him because again he hasn't done

647
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 1: well and you can see that he's on his way

648
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 1: out there. So no, I think they handle it the

649
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 1: right way. I mean, basically what you can say, I

650
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: know that you know, Matt Nagy said this was kind

651
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,879
Speaker 1: of a decision that he made just by feel as

652
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 1: the game was going on, But it was a right feel.

653
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:21,719
Speaker 1: You have a quick hook, I mean, if you have

654
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:23,840
Speaker 1: a in baseball, if you have a bad starter, and

655
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,480
Speaker 1: he's going in there, his fastballs down to ninety one,

656
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,279
Speaker 1: he's giving up hits, and it's like, okay, so now

657
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,439
Speaker 1: you start to worry about losing the game. Then you say, okay, fine,

658
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 1: let's let's make the move. So I think the quick

659
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 1: hook was the right way to do it. Now with Foles,

660
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: who I think is certainly better than Traubisky, it's just

661
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:42,839
Speaker 1: a matter of keeping him healthy because that's the one

662
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 1: thing that he's not been able to establish since coming

663
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,320
Speaker 1: into the NFL, being healthy all through sixteen games. And

664
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 1: John I haven't heard what happened from last week. Chris Carson,

665
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 1: by the way, looks like good chance he's gonna play.

666
00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 1: But did Tristan Hill ever get fine? Alligated it, But

667
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 1: when do they announce those Well they what they don't

668
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,880
Speaker 1: announce them, They leak them. And so what happens is

669
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 1: you put in a request if you're you know, an

670
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:14,600
Speaker 1: NFL beat person, and then by Friday afternoon or Saturday,

671
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: they'll get the word back to you what the fines

672
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,320
Speaker 1: were going to be. So he probably got the notification,

673
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 1: and you know, having been in the league, it's like

674
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:22,920
Speaker 1: if you get a fine, you're going to get a

675
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,399
Speaker 1: letter or an email. Now it's going to be there

676
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 1: by Wednesday or Thursday, so they'll let you know. They'll

677
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: leak out tomorrow. You know who all the fines are.

678
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:33,840
Speaker 1: You know they do it with the horse collar, tackles,

679
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:35,919
Speaker 1: they do it with all that, and so I'm sure

680
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 1: that his fine is going to come out tomorrow. The

681
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,799
Speaker 1: fact that nothing happened on Tuesday, because if you're going

682
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: to give him a suspension, that have to announce it

683
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 1: on Tuesday so you can get the roster space to

684
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,640
Speaker 1: be able to come in and get somebody in there

685
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 1: to be able to place him. So he's not getting suspended.

686
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 1: But I'm sure he's going to get a fine. John

687
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:56,360
Speaker 1: Covid finally hit the leave and gonna have a postponed

688
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,920
Speaker 1: game this weekend. Tennessee Titans are going through it. How

689
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,320
Speaker 1: do you feel the NFL handled this situation thus far perfect?

690
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:04,399
Speaker 1: I'll give him an a because again, what they did

691
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 1: there was totally flexible because they're taking on a day

692
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,680
Speaker 1: by day basis. Okay, the game was scheduled for Sunday,

693
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: So here you are on a Wednesday and you had

694
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 1: one more positive test. It's like, okay, so we'll delay

695
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 1: it now to a Monday night game, and then you

696
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 1: come in today and you find out, okay, you have

697
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,000
Speaker 1: a player the tested positive and another staff or the

698
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 1: tested positive. So it's still spreading. And of course, I

699
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 1: mean you look at it. It's not just like people

700
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:33,080
Speaker 1: that aren't suffering from it, because there's temperatures and bad

701
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,760
Speaker 1: feelings for some of the players, and so it's like, Okay,

702
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 1: once you got to Thursday and you're still adding more

703
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 1: than you're substracting, then it's a matter go ahead and

704
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 1: move the game back. So what they'll do is that

705
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 1: they'll take it back and they'll play it in week

706
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 1: seven because they'll take the Baltimore Pittsburgh game because both

707
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 1: teams are playing in week seven. They have bye weeks

708
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 1: in week eight, So now you move the game back,

709
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 1: so you have the flexibility of doing that. But again,

710
00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 1: I think they handled it really well. What I'm wondering

711
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,800
Speaker 1: right now is how well is the Titans handling things,

712
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 1: because you know, here they are they've got eleven or

713
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 1: twelve people in the front office and players that have

714
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,840
Speaker 1: tested positive. But it's not like they're the only ones.

715
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:15,360
Speaker 1: Their first round pick has tested positive twice and is

716
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,719
Speaker 1: still he hasn't played it down, and so because he's

717
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 1: on COVIDS, then they had a practice squad guy that's

718
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,439
Speaker 1: in the same boat. And so it's like, hey, they've

719
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: got more than anybody else in the league. Is there

720
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,400
Speaker 1: something they're doing wrong? You have to kind of think

721
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,760
Speaker 1: there is something that's not working. And I think coming

722
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:33,759
Speaker 1: out of this, because you know, I kept on saying

723
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 1: it for the last two days. You know, if you're

724
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 1: in a situation like Tennessee, what you need to do

725
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 1: is that you need to go bubble. And bubble is

726
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:42,839
Speaker 1: not like you can see in the NBA or any

727
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 1: other sport like that. The bubble is okay, people, here's

728
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,800
Speaker 1: what we're gonna do. Players, you're staying in the hotel.

729
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 1: You're not getting out of the hotel. You can't go home.

730
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,799
Speaker 1: You have to sacrifice because here we are. You know,

731
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 1: this is a two, three and oh teams that we're

732
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 1: going to meet. And they put themselves in a position

733
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: whatever happened that if they, you know, played the game,

734
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:04,279
Speaker 1: they were not going to have a practice, And so

735
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,720
Speaker 1: I think that this stage they need to go bubble

736
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:10,600
Speaker 1: and have everybody in a hotel that's totally secure for

737
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 1: an indefinite period of time. Yeah, it's tricky, John, I

738
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 1: mean the NBA easy to reschedule games, Baseball, easy to

739
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: reschedule games. Football, it's hard. Are you concerned, you know

740
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 1: if this spills over to a couple more teams? No,

741
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:27,480
Speaker 1: I'm not. No, I'm not. And here's the reason. Because

742
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 1: you know, when you have bye weeks, you can be adjustable,

743
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 1: and here we are four weeks into the season, and

744
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:36,839
Speaker 1: is an easy adjustable thing. Once you get into late

745
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 1: midd November, when the bye weeks go away, then you

746
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 1: have any option. It's like, okay, fine, if we have

747
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 1: games to make up, then we'll make them up. We'll

748
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,399
Speaker 1: make week eighteen and we'll push the playoffs back one week.

749
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,160
Speaker 1: And so I think that's the way to do it

750
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,399
Speaker 1: because you have the flexibility because you have the one

751
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 1: week between the championship games and the super Bowl, so

752
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 1: you can move it back. So if you need to

753
00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,399
Speaker 1: play these games, and if you don't need to play

754
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 1: these games, because remember, I mean there are people in

755
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,759
Speaker 1: the stands, but not a lot. So it's like, you know,

756
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:05,880
Speaker 1: if it's going to be like Denver and the Jets,

757
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:07,840
Speaker 1: you say, Okay, we don't need to worry about in

758
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 1: week eighteen. So I think there's enough flexibility. I think

759
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,600
Speaker 1: they're gonna make it through and get basically all their

760
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 1: games in John, let's go down south to the atl

761
00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 1: dan Quinn is having a rough year. I mean that

762
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:21,720
Speaker 1: offense is performing got a high level, but the defense

763
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:23,759
Speaker 1: is given up a lot of points. The mishause with

764
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:27,640
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. How much longer does he have? I think

765
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:29,920
Speaker 1: he's gonna have the whole season because the fact that

766
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: he took the team to the super Bowl, even though

767
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 1: it's a bad loss in the Super Bowl. I think

768
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 1: that Arthur Blank's pretty loyal. But you know, the way

769
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 1: this thing's going, I can't imagine that dan Quinn's going

770
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,840
Speaker 1: to be head coaching the team next year. I worry

771
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:44,240
Speaker 1: that Thomas Demetrov is not going to be the general

772
00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:47,240
Speaker 1: manager next year. But things aren't working out. And again

773
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,600
Speaker 1: here you have a defensive coach that the defense is

774
00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 1: the problem. And again he's being I think, very stubborn

775
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: in the sense that Okay, Dan, are you calling the plays? No,

776
00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 1: so who's calling the plays? Jeff old Brick is calling

777
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 1: to plays on early downs, where he Morris is calling

778
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:05,359
Speaker 1: the team on the passing downs, it's not working, you're

779
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 1: blowing games, and so it's like you don't think because

780
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,759
Speaker 1: I still remember being on the sidelines week week eight

781
00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: last year, and you know, the Falcons were one in seven.

782
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,719
Speaker 1: I was standing five feet behind Arthur Blank. He's looking

783
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:22,919
Speaker 1: up an empty bowl of arena people that there weren't notice,

784
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,360
Speaker 1: nobody there cheering for the team, and it's like, I

785
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 1: thought something could happen there, But he stood by him.

786
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 1: Dan came out one six out of the last eight.

787
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 1: But I think he'll stand by him this year. But

788
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 1: I'd be surprised if he's a head coach next year. Yeah,

789
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 1: they should be two in one right now. It's a shame.

790
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:38,799
Speaker 1: But all right, So John asked you a question you

791
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 1: haven't been asked all week. What have you not been

792
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:45,759
Speaker 1: asked all week that you want to talk about? What

793
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 1: have I not been asked all week? It's, well, the

794
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:52,680
Speaker 1: big one I not ask about, but I keep on stressing.

795
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,399
Speaker 1: It's like you talk about Seattle's defense giving up all

796
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 1: the yards and points. That's everybody in the NFC, that's

797
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 1: everybody in the league. But I guess the one that

798
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 1: I haven't been asked about yet is that you know,

799
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 1: what do you think of the offensive line? And I

800
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,400
Speaker 1: think the offensive line has done a better job than

801
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:12,360
Speaker 1: anybody anticipated on Sunday. You'll even though he had to

802
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 1: run around to do it. You know, Russell Wilson had

803
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 1: three point one three point four one seconds according to

804
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,879
Speaker 1: next Gen's stats to throw the football. You know they're

805
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,719
Speaker 1: running has been good. I mean, you know, this is

806
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 1: a better offensive line than last year. I hope people

807
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:28,839
Speaker 1: recognize it. And by the way, they were laughing at

808
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,240
Speaker 1: me for asking that question, and you came with it, John,

809
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,799
Speaker 1: you gave us. We were laughing. You were like, I

810
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 1: wasn't expecting you were expecting more like a bombshell question.

811
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 1: Yes I was, but I wanted him to talk about

812
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:44,839
Speaker 1: something he wanted to talk about. I appreciate that. That's

813
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:48,200
Speaker 1: nice here. Yeah, hey, well John, as always, we appreciate

Speaker 1: how much we love me is he is the best.

838
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,880
Speaker 1: But all right, so let's talk about these Hawks. Yeah,

839
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 1: what we saw and then what we need to see.

840
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:59,719
Speaker 1: What I saw was an offense that can go on

841
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:03,120
Speaker 1: a run. That looks streaky at times, seems like they

842
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 1: stalled out every now and then, but I see an

843
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,759
Speaker 1: offense that can play any style of football. I'm still

844
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:12,399
Speaker 1: waiting for the dominant run game performance that my guy

845
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 1: Ray Roberts is dying to see. Will we ever see that? Though?

846
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:19,279
Speaker 1: I'm looking at this offense and how they're they're doing

847
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 1: their thing, I'm like, is that necessary? Do they need

848
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 1: to go that route? They don't need to do anything.

849
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:28,640
Speaker 1: We are an offense that says you want to stop that,

850
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:31,440
Speaker 1: we'll go here. And what we are we're a passing

851
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 1: team now, that's bottom line. But if you want to

852
00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 1: take that away, I don't know how you're gonna take

853
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:38,680
Speaker 1: it away. We're protect we hear John Clayton earlier. You

854
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:42,240
Speaker 1: know he three point one seconds per throw, that's biggest

855
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 1: in the league. I mean, so we're protecting, protecting. Well,

856
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:47,719
Speaker 1: We've got weapons all over the place. We you know,

857
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 1: we had Freddie Swain on earlier, rookie who's you know,

858
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:53,759
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a player. He's gonna player. We got

859
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:55,839
Speaker 1: tight ends who haven't even been used yet. I mean,

860
00:44:55,920 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 1: DK Medcalfe is superstar status. Tyler Lockett superstar. He's not underrated,

861
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 1: and he may not be nationally heard, but anybody in

862
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:07,560
Speaker 1: the NFL knows he's not underrated. He's a stud. So

863
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:09,960
Speaker 1: if you want to completely take it away, if you're

864
00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,239
Speaker 1: gonna run cover two on us all day, or potentially

865
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 1: even a three man front and drop eight guys, then

866
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 1: we're gonna run the football and you better be ready

867
00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 1: for that. So we're good offensively or a jug or not?

868
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 1: All right? Can I I'm gonna humble the offense a

869
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:27,879
Speaker 1: little bit. You should because I don't want him getting cocky.

870
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:30,000
Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna humble a little bit. Needs to

871
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 1: be better on third downs? Five for thirteen on third downs?

872
00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: What's you've coached in this league? You've played in this league?

873
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:39,800
Speaker 1: What is acceptable for third down? For centing? Well, it's changed.

874
00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:43,359
Speaker 1: I'll take you back because we used to every year

875
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:45,480
Speaker 1: going with goals, you know, and we would tell the

876
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:47,279
Speaker 1: players when I was a player, and the coach told

877
00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 1: us when I was coach, told the players in nineteen

878
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:56,080
Speaker 1: ninety two. God Lee, that's getting a long time ago. Um,

879
00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:59,560
Speaker 1: we were second in the league in third down conversions

880
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:03,640
Speaker 1: defense thirty one thirty two percent. Uh. You know nowadays,

881
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 1: if you're thirty one thirty two defensively, I mean you are,

882
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 1: You're killing it. Yeah, it's just the game's changed. It's

883
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:12,319
Speaker 1: just it's, you know, forty percent now, I think for

884
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:16,120
Speaker 1: an offense is probably the standard. And now I see

885
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,960
Speaker 1: fifty percent sometimes like a fifty percent. I'll take that.

886
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,359
Speaker 1: That is nuts. And it doesn't matter if it's third.

887
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 1: Matter of fact, I would rather defensively come up third

888
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:27,440
Speaker 1: and two because I think you're gonna throw it. You're

889
00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:29,960
Speaker 1: gonna throw it quick. It's third and six or seven. Man,

890
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 1: I got all kinds. I got the screen to worry about.

891
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:33,920
Speaker 1: I got a deep out, I got a hook. I

892
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:35,840
Speaker 1: got If you want to write double word about a

893
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:39,319
Speaker 1: quick on third and two offensively, no, no, no, Well

894
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 1: it would be a quick type of throw, right. You

895
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:43,759
Speaker 1: maybe do a quick out a run third and two.

896
00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:47,040
Speaker 1: But I can What I'm saying is third and two.

897
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:49,719
Speaker 1: I'm gonna isolate, you know, I'm gonna come up where

898
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna play hard. Jam man. I'm gonna put probably

899
00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:54,320
Speaker 1: eight guys up there. I'm thinking about the run and

900
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:56,440
Speaker 1: take care of more stuff, and I'm gonna force you

901
00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:58,239
Speaker 1: to do something you don't want to do. Yeah, okay,

902
00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:00,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna force you go over the top. Okay. And

903
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 1: so you don't like the third and six and seven.

904
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:05,440
Speaker 1: It's weird because it opens up so many more things.

905
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:08,239
Speaker 1: You got again, you got screens, you got out, you

906
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:11,920
Speaker 1: got slant still, you've got double I've got to cover

907
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:15,560
Speaker 1: everything there. Even though if I got a pass rush,

908
00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:18,400
Speaker 1: I should be able to take away your primary, force

909
00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:21,799
Speaker 1: you back to the your third option, which nowadays, by

910
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 1: the time they hit their back foot, Russell Wilson goes,

911
00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:27,160
Speaker 1: you thought that was my third option. I don't know

912
00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:30,280
Speaker 1: what you're doing. That's my first option. That's an easy oppy.

913
00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:35,600
Speaker 1: So it's just different. I've changed my philosophy on third down.

914
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:38,160
Speaker 1: And you've heard me say this a few times. To me,

915
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:40,399
Speaker 1: it's you've got to win on mixed downs. You gotta

916
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:42,080
Speaker 1: win a first second. I gotta get you a third

917
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:44,359
Speaker 1: down as quick as I can. And we did that

918
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:46,680
Speaker 1: to Dallas in that very first drive. They had to

919
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:50,799
Speaker 1: think four or five third down opportunities. Guess what, that's

920
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 1: just too many. You're not gonna get them all. I'm

921
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,720
Speaker 1: gonna get you on one. If you go one for five,

922
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:57,680
Speaker 1: I'm off the field. You kick a field goal. I

923
00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:01,479
Speaker 1: can live with that. So I'd rather have fifteen third

924
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,960
Speaker 1: down opportunities. Go ahead and go seven for fifteen. I

925
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,160
Speaker 1: can live with it. It's the ones that scare me

926
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:10,520
Speaker 1: is when they go three for seven because I'm not

927
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:12,600
Speaker 1: getting it the third. You're winning on first and second.

928
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,360
Speaker 1: Now there's no pressure on the offense. So I just

929
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 1: think it's changed a little bit. Okay, now here's something

930
00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:24,880
Speaker 1: that I've seen about the Seahawks. Tyler Lockett DK Metcalf

931
00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:27,680
Speaker 1: the best duo in football right now at the wide

932
00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:30,920
Speaker 1: receiver position. And I'm gonna tell you why. DK two

933
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,920
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety seven yards second in the NFL locket

934
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:36,919
Speaker 1: two fifty nine. He's tenth in the NFL locket four

935
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:41,120
Speaker 1: receiving touchdowns, that second in the NFL, DK averaging twenty

936
00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:44,800
Speaker 1: four yards per catch, that second in the NFL. Paul,

937
00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:47,480
Speaker 1: they're not getting the love I think they deserve. Maybe

938
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:49,719
Speaker 1: they are. Maybe we're just in this bubble and we're

939
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:52,279
Speaker 1: used to just being tucked up in the Northwest and

940
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:55,719
Speaker 1: say no one respects us. But I watch ESPN, I

941
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:58,279
Speaker 1: read the clippings and all that stuff, and they're not

942
00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:02,120
Speaker 1: getting the love I feel they deserve. Number one duo

943
00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:05,160
Speaker 1: in the NFL going into Week four. Yeah, I believe that.

944
00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:07,319
Speaker 1: And the reason why, I think partly is a lot

945
00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:10,480
Speaker 1: of the good duos they've brought a rookie in, you know,

946
00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:13,240
Speaker 1: like Lamb, you know, with Dallas, you know you're throwing

947
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 1: you know, Cooper pretty good due Actually they got four

948
00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 1: guys a problem they can and they got a quarterback

949
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:25,239
Speaker 1: and gets it done as well. It's it's why we're

950
00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:27,600
Speaker 1: giving up four hundred and ninety seven yards a game.

951
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:30,720
Speaker 1: We played Matt Ryan. We've seen what those three wide

952
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:33,400
Speaker 1: receivers did. I mean, it's and they're tight end. They

953
00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:37,399
Speaker 1: have four ridiculous people Atlanta does you know? And then

954
00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:40,319
Speaker 1: you're throwing the Patriot. One threw me off a little bit.

955
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:43,480
Speaker 1: But one that one confused me a bit because Edelman

956
00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:45,959
Speaker 1: doesn't have games like 'm gonna had two catches last

957
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:50,480
Speaker 1: week two for twenty three yards, you know, and it

958
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:53,640
Speaker 1: gets but that's okay to me. That was a little

959
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:55,480
Speaker 1: bit more of a scheme thing. Matter of fact, they

960
00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 1: run a similar scheme Miami. The way they run their

961
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,399
Speaker 1: tight ends. They will matt someone to protect sometimes six

962
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,480
Speaker 1: seven guys. Uh there, and you know not that they

963
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,799
Speaker 1: run a lot of deep routes because Fitzpatrick can't. He's

964
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:11,279
Speaker 1: got the weakest arm in the league. Oh yes, but

965
00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 1: his timing's very good. He's very accurate. He's Harvard man. Yeah,

966
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,719
Speaker 1: that beard makes him look like he went to I

967
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:23,000
Speaker 1: won't even say it, um, but he he doesn't look

968
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:26,800
Speaker 1: like he went to Harvard. Uh. Their problem is he's

969
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:30,239
Speaker 1: just going to throw interceptions against the good teams when

970
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:32,719
Speaker 1: it when it matters, and I think we'll come up

971
00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 1: with some on them and um, but yes, I agree,

972
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,040
Speaker 1: best duo in the league right now. Another thing I

973
00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:43,399
Speaker 1: saw I saw Ryan Neal was that his name, Yeah,

974
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,600
Speaker 1: practice squad guy made a play in the end zone

975
00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:49,839
Speaker 1: to seal the game. I saw Jordan Simmons come in

976
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:55,200
Speaker 1: and be serviceable as an offensive lineman. Can they rely

977
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:59,160
Speaker 1: on these guys or do you? I can't? No, let

978
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:01,719
Speaker 1: me change the question. How long can you rely on

979
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:03,640
Speaker 1: these guys? Are they good for a week or two

980
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:06,560
Speaker 1: and then you need your dudes? Or is it okay

981
00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:08,919
Speaker 1: we're going into Miami, let's try to hide these guys

982
00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:11,440
Speaker 1: and make sure they just don't make a lot of mistakes. Well,

983
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:13,880
Speaker 1: I think Ryan Neil's back on the practice squad already,

984
00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:18,560
Speaker 1: so yeah, but it's it's much easier to come in

985
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:21,600
Speaker 1: when somebody gets hurt the middle of a game and

986
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:24,000
Speaker 1: you're in the flow. There's nothing to be nervous about.

987
00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:26,719
Speaker 1: You're just you're in the game. Yeah, it's a lot

988
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:28,719
Speaker 1: different when you go in as a start and six.

989
00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,360
Speaker 1: It's so much different. And if they know you're starting,

990
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:36,920
Speaker 1: they're preparing for you. It's it's a big difference. I

991
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:40,160
Speaker 1: would say you can get away with two three backups.

992
00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:42,400
Speaker 1: You know, it's the key ones. You know, Jamal Adams

993
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:45,160
Speaker 1: is gonna hurt, but if Leno Hill's ready, we'll be okay.

994
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:47,120
Speaker 1: I mean, Leno can play the game, and he's a

995
00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 1: veteran guy. Um, he just don't want to sprinkle in

996
00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:52,920
Speaker 1: too many back I think right now, other than Jamal,

997
00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:56,799
Speaker 1: we don't have any really major injuries. Chris Carson went out.

998
00:51:56,840 --> 00:52:00,000
Speaker 1: We've got guys like high who can play offensive lineman.

999
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:03,439
Speaker 1: We're so deep, Jamarco Jones Simmons, I mean we've got

1000
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,440
Speaker 1: we're the deepest we've ever been at offensive line and

1001
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:09,279
Speaker 1: they're playing really well. All right, now we know what

1002
00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 1: we saw. Now what do we need to see? I

1003
00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:13,200
Speaker 1: can tell you what we need to see. I'm gonna

1004
00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:17,240
Speaker 1: say more sacks. But that's not you're not enlightened by that.

1005
00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:19,680
Speaker 1: That's that's public knowledge. What do you think we need

1006
00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:22,200
Speaker 1: to see. I don't think it's the pass rush. I

1007
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:24,440
Speaker 1: watched our pass rush last week. I thought it was

1008
00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,799
Speaker 1: pretty good, and you know, i'd go be is it dominant? No,

1009
00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:30,560
Speaker 1: not necessarily. But we got two sack. We should have

1010
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:32,319
Speaker 1: had four. There's no I mean we should have had

1011
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:34,480
Speaker 1: a sack on the last play of the game. I

1012
00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:37,200
Speaker 1: mean we had him, he's daddy. We probably should have

1013
00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:40,400
Speaker 1: the sack when he tried to flip the ball, pretended

1014
00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:42,800
Speaker 1: to flip the ball out to Ezekiel Elliott. It was

1015
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:46,160
Speaker 1: way out on the sideline. They didn't call um grat

1016
00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:48,680
Speaker 1: grounding on that. They should have had a penalty on it.

1017
00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:51,040
Speaker 1: I mean that's two sacks. We absolutely should adds. That's

1018
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:52,920
Speaker 1: what I would have been four. Now we're getting up there.

1019
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:56,240
Speaker 1: I don't think the pass rush is our issue. We've

1020
00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:59,360
Speaker 1: got to show up the back seven can't fix it.

1021
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:01,480
Speaker 1: Can you say that again to the people, because I

1022
00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:04,920
Speaker 1: do not think it's our past rush. That's not the

1023
00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:08,479
Speaker 1: issue right now. It's we have got to stop giving

1024
00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:11,240
Speaker 1: up the big places. We've got to stop busting on defense.

1025
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:15,160
Speaker 1: You heard Paul More, it is not the past rush. Now,

1026
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:17,960
Speaker 1: coming up next, we'll go inside the film room. We're

1027
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,600
Speaker 1: gonna break down some plays that we saw with the

1028
00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:23,440
Speaker 1: Hawks right here on Hawks Live. I'm Michael Bampas, he's

1029
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:30,200
Speaker 1: Paul Moyer. Let's do it. Hawks Slive every Thursday from

1030
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,320
Speaker 1: seven to nine, live on air on seven ten ESPN.

1031
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:41,719
Speaker 1: Shattle Hawks Live. Michael Bumpings Paul Moyer every Thursday right

1032
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:44,839
Speaker 1: here on seven ten ESPN at seven o'clock. And we

1033
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:48,480
Speaker 1: are in Century League squid here. But I got my guy,

1034
00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,640
Speaker 1: so we're good to go. So now we're getting to

1035
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 1: the film room. The first player we're gonna break down

1036
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 1: is a interception from Shaquille Griffin. Now, before we get

1037
00:53:57,680 --> 00:53:59,560
Speaker 1: into this, Paul, I just want to say, it's nice

1038
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:02,200
Speaker 1: to see these young men get the full ball in

1039
00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:05,760
Speaker 1: his hands, not have a flag thrown contracts year, hasn't

1040
00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:07,719
Speaker 1: had it picked in a couple of years. This has

1041
00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:11,840
Speaker 1: to release some weight off his shoulders, right, I would

1042
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:17,160
Speaker 1: think so you know, again, the day's different. You know,

1043
00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:20,520
Speaker 1: you start sixteen games, you usually get an interception just

1044
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:24,320
Speaker 1: by accident at tip ball, but the game's changed. The

1045
00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:27,719
Speaker 1: quarterbacks are so much more accurate receivers, you know, the

1046
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:30,319
Speaker 1: way they catch the ball. But the man made the

1047
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:34,080
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl without an interception, so that shows people know

1048
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:36,800
Speaker 1: about his coverability. So it's just a bad about finishing

1049
00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:40,400
Speaker 1: the place. But yeah, this was This was impressive. Actually,

1050
00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:41,799
Speaker 1: it's one of the few I don't want to say

1051
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:43,759
Speaker 1: with a few times to get myself in trouble there.

1052
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:47,520
Speaker 1: We really scheme this play. Oh I'm sorry, we probably

1053
00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 1: should hear the play. Huh. Prescott Stamps get picked off,

1054
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:55,120
Speaker 1: Griffin picks it off coming nearside, makes one man miss,

1055
00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:57,719
Speaker 1: dives out away at the thirty five. The Seahawks have

1056
00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:00,680
Speaker 1: the ball back and they've got thirty six seconds left.

1057
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:06,320
Speaker 1: A beautiful play. Shack Griffin has been on Amari Cooper

1058
00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:09,080
Speaker 1: all day long and has been stride for stride in

1059
00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:12,520
Speaker 1: that time. He just undercuts that round, picks it off,

1060
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:16,600
Speaker 1: and the Seahawks are in business. The Seahawks scheme this play.

1061
00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:18,480
Speaker 1: I mean they have three wide receivers to our right,

1062
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 1: and you got Ezekiel Elliott offset in the backfield to

1063
00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 1: our left, and it's really well played. I mean, we

1064
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:30,640
Speaker 1: basically have five guys covering three wide receivers to our white.

1065
00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:33,759
Speaker 1: Jamal Adams actually comes to help Bobby Wagner on the

1066
00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:37,160
Speaker 1: third receiver, sees that he has him and immediately starts

1067
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:40,480
Speaker 1: to cut over to Shaquille Griffin, who's all alone backside.

1068
00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:43,400
Speaker 1: Shaq gets a little bit on his heels on this.

1069
00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:45,760
Speaker 1: This is not you know, the normal you know step

1070
00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:48,600
Speaker 1: kick that they talk about. Gets a little bit off

1071
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:52,040
Speaker 1: on his heels, but man, he runs this route like

1072
00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:54,640
Speaker 1: he's the wide receiver and it's a pretty well thrown ball.

1073
00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:58,040
Speaker 1: I mean he undercuts the throw. And that's what you

1074
00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:01,120
Speaker 1: gotta do. When you see a round that you've practiced

1075
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:04,600
Speaker 1: and you know what's there, you gotta take it and

1076
00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:06,680
Speaker 1: you gotta trust it because if he does, if this

1077
00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:09,080
Speaker 1: guy runs a double move, if he runs just a

1078
00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:12,239
Speaker 1: fake in and go, it's a touchdown. Yeah, you gotta

1079
00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:15,160
Speaker 1: trust your instincts. Yeah, Paul, I look at this play,

1080
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:18,840
Speaker 1: and this makes me feel like Griffin knew what was coming,

1081
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:21,680
Speaker 1: He saw the formation, he saw the down in distance.

1082
00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:24,880
Speaker 1: You know, there's a joke going on. I guess in

1083
00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:27,279
Speaker 1: our little circle that Jamal Adams is like, look, if

1084
00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:28,800
Speaker 1: it don't happen one hundred percent of the time, I

1085
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:30,320
Speaker 1: don't want to I don't want to know the stats.

1086
00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:33,280
Speaker 1: This is the play to where it's like, okay, sixty

1087
00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:36,919
Speaker 1: eight percent of the time in this formation, this down

1088
00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:39,000
Speaker 1: and distance, this is what they run. And I see

1089
00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:42,360
Speaker 1: a guy who's comfortable. Now. If Griffin doesn't make the

1090
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:45,319
Speaker 1: play on this ball, Jamal Adams might get thrown out

1091
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:51,120
Speaker 1: the game because he is going to light this receiver up. Well,

1092
00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:54,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give a little praise to the D line

1093
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,879
Speaker 1: on this too. They run a stunt in the two

1094
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,200
Speaker 1: tackles I kind of run into each other, but they

1095
00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:02,120
Speaker 1: come and I'm not sure. I couldn't tell if that

1096
00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:05,080
Speaker 1: was Reid coming around or not. But whoever came around

1097
00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:08,960
Speaker 1: to our right side there left came in just in

1098
00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:12,080
Speaker 1: time where you know Dak had to throw it probably

1099
00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:14,359
Speaker 1: a little quicker than he wanted to, and if if

1100
00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:16,960
Speaker 1: he let it a little more inside, maybe it's a knockdown.

1101
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:20,200
Speaker 1: But it was, you know, really good play by Griffin

1102
00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:23,240
Speaker 1: right before the half. Huge huge play because it's one

1103
00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:26,040
Speaker 1: of two turnovers back to back to give us fourteen

1104
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:28,280
Speaker 1: points points off the turnovers. That's what she nean. All right,

1105
00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:30,680
Speaker 1: next play, we're gonna break down as Russell Wilson finds

1106
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:35,320
Speaker 1: DK Metcalf for the go ahead touchdown. Russell looks sense

1107
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:38,560
Speaker 1: half time, going to throw the ends one. What good

1108
00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:45,240
Speaker 1: I can catch touchdown? Sayhawks. I couldn't see him for

1109
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:48,160
Speaker 1: a second. And suddenly he flashes in the end zone

1110
00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:51,960
Speaker 1: and DK Metcalf and he in fact makes up for

1111
00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:55,400
Speaker 1: the play earlier. And it's only fitting, isn't that heats

1112
00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:58,360
Speaker 1: the guy who comes up with a big reception the

1113
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:02,880
Speaker 1: touchdown with forty seven left to play? Bump. You think

1114
00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:05,240
Speaker 1: we're gonna play this when we have Rabes on Sunday?

1115
00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:07,520
Speaker 1: Oh most define you know what they say? The eyes

1116
00:58:07,560 --> 00:58:12,320
Speaker 1: are the first to go. He's getting older. Yea. Rabes

1117
00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:14,360
Speaker 1: is a triple o geef. He doesn't want us to play.

1118
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 1: He'll make the call and we are not playing. But what, Paul,

1119
00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:21,240
Speaker 1: what I like about this is if I'm a receiver

1120
00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:26,000
Speaker 1: right the slot receiver Tyler Lockett, outside receiver DK Metcalf,

1121
00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:29,240
Speaker 1: they cross each other's path and my offense back in Monroe,

1122
00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:32,600
Speaker 1: we call this the tire concept. Okay, they cross each

1123
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:36,320
Speaker 1: other's path. Now, if I'm a savvy receiver, if I'm

1124
00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:39,439
Speaker 1: a senior at Monroe High School and we're playing this game,

1125
00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:42,120
Speaker 1: I know that if I see zone, I'm gonna force

1126
00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:45,600
Speaker 1: these two defenders to switch. I'm making them communicate. Therefore

1127
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:48,000
Speaker 1: there's room for error. Now, I think they do a

1128
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:51,400
Speaker 1: great job communicating the defenders and they switch it off.

1129
00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:54,480
Speaker 1: But now I look at the safety. The safety sees

1130
00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:58,560
Speaker 1: the slot go outside and just assumes he's running the wheel.

1131
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:00,919
Speaker 1: Maybe DK is gonna run a slant and sit down

1132
00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:02,760
Speaker 1: in that hole. So therefore, I'm gonna try to stay

1133
00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:05,880
Speaker 1: on top of my deepest threat. He sees that and

1134
00:59:06,160 --> 00:59:08,920
Speaker 1: instead of DK doing what most concepts do in this

1135
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:11,680
Speaker 1: situation is find the gap behind the linebackers and sit.

1136
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:14,320
Speaker 1: Now I'm going all the way across the field. Russell

1137
00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:17,560
Speaker 1: sees that, sees the safety with his hits, flip, takes

1138
00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:20,840
Speaker 1: a shotting and goes back to the guy who fumbled

1139
00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:24,160
Speaker 1: the ball on it for sure, Guarantee takes down. Yeah,

1140
00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:27,120
Speaker 1: we talked about that one. You know again, I gotta

1141
00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:30,080
Speaker 1: get Shotty credit and Russell actually I get three people

1142
00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:34,920
Speaker 1: credit on this one. Shotty just for this design. They

1143
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,360
Speaker 1: knew something was there, and you're right. The safety never

1144
00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:39,480
Speaker 1: should have widened. He should have just got depth and

1145
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:44,440
Speaker 1: maybe he makes us play the bottom three receivers. There's

1146
00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:48,840
Speaker 1: nobody open the dB for Dallas. The way they pass

1147
00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:53,680
Speaker 1: that office, it's textbook stuff, it really is. But the

1148
00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:57,280
Speaker 1: offensive line, if they don't block this right, there's no

1149
00:59:57,320 --> 00:59:59,200
Speaker 1: way he can make this straw. It's just too long

1150
00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:02,160
Speaker 1: a developing and that's what we're seeing this year. We're

1151
01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:05,600
Speaker 1: seeing the protection again. We heard, you know John Clayton earlier.

1152
01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:09,760
Speaker 1: I mean, he had three point one seconds on average

1153
01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:12,200
Speaker 1: to throw the football last week. You can get a

1154
01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 1: lot of plays down field. You can run these deep

1155
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:18,080
Speaker 1: crossing routes and these double moves that we got so

1156
01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:22,320
Speaker 1: so many things going on. Scheme, Tyler Lockett running the

1157
01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:26,200
Speaker 1: route to widen the safety properly, DK staying with it.

1158
01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:28,160
Speaker 1: And I think one thing that it goes a little

1159
01:00:28,240 --> 01:00:31,959
Speaker 1: unnoticed was the way Dka played the ball in the air.

1160
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:35,240
Speaker 1: He kind of faked the safety. He slowed down, put

1161
01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:38,160
Speaker 1: his hands by his chest like that's where the ball was,

1162
01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:40,600
Speaker 1: and the safety slows a chest and up and at

1163
01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:44,120
Speaker 1: the last second he bursts and he extends his hands out,

1164
01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:47,040
Speaker 1: no chance for the safety's There's so many good things

1165
01:00:47,120 --> 01:00:49,200
Speaker 1: going on in this play, so many good things, just

1166
01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:53,680
Speaker 1: like how you really love the way the short side

1167
01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:56,560
Speaker 1: of the field defensively played that his beautiful one all

1168
01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:58,840
Speaker 1: comes together right, same thing on the other side. It's

1169
01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:01,760
Speaker 1: beautiful when it happens just the way you drew it up.

1170
01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:04,960
Speaker 1: I guarantee you. Shoddy is in the booth, probably standing

1171
01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:07,640
Speaker 1: on his feet, hands up. He knows it's about to

1172
01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:10,600
Speaker 1: go down. It beautiful. Football is a beautiful thing when

1173
01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:12,960
Speaker 1: it happens the way you draw it up. All right,

1174
01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:15,600
Speaker 1: We're gonna move on to the next play. Ryan Neil,

1175
01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:19,320
Speaker 1: brought up from the practice squad, left v mag didn't

1176
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:22,760
Speaker 1: think he was playing this game. Had a huge play

1177
01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:26,200
Speaker 1: fourth quarter in a session to win it against the Cowboys.

1178
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:29,320
Speaker 1: Three receivers right, Prescott is gonna looks like he gets

1179
01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:32,880
Speaker 1: hit again. He stumbles, he stays on his feet, still looks,

1180
01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:36,120
Speaker 1: droves to the end zone, gets to accepted football. Is

1181
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:39,479
Speaker 1: that accepted in the end zone? It's Neil who makes

1182
01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:41,680
Speaker 1: the pick in the end zone of the Seahawks. We're

1183
01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:46,480
Speaker 1: gonna hold off the Dallas Cowboys. How Dak Prescott was

1184
01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:50,000
Speaker 1: able to stumble away from a sure sack and still

1185
01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:52,760
Speaker 1: throw the ball in the end zone. And Neil, who

1186
01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:55,920
Speaker 1: was just activated today, makes the pick in the end

1187
01:01:56,000 --> 01:02:00,240
Speaker 1: zone and the Seahawks we're gonna hold off the Dallas Cowboys. Wow,

1188
01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:03,320
Speaker 1: I want to finish. The defense steps up when they

1189
01:02:03,360 --> 01:02:07,480
Speaker 1: had too. So he really impressive again. And by the way,

1190
01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:10,600
Speaker 1: Ryan Neil is on the active roster. Monday, they had

1191
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:12,720
Speaker 1: put him back down to practicalard. Now he's back on

1192
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:16,320
Speaker 1: the active roster and he's practicing, so um, you know,

1193
01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:19,000
Speaker 1: good for him. We'll talk about him last. Here's what's

1194
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:22,040
Speaker 1: crazy about this play and I had mentioned it earlier.

1195
01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:25,320
Speaker 1: I go, our best rushes were three men rushing Mayo

1196
01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:28,200
Speaker 1: on this one. Unbelievable. I don't know why he doesn't

1197
01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:30,000
Speaker 1: do this more. I mean, he does a speed rush,

1198
01:02:30,120 --> 01:02:32,920
Speaker 1: sets the guy up outside, and then he just nice

1199
01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:36,240
Speaker 1: inside the tackle in the guard and I don't know

1200
01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:38,640
Speaker 1: how dat got away from this. This should have been

1201
01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:41,560
Speaker 1: a sack. It's crazy. Shows his athletic ability for him

1202
01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:45,360
Speaker 1: to get away from this. Shakim did a great job

1203
01:02:45,360 --> 01:02:47,600
Speaker 1: in this. I'm gonna call it a dying defense because

1204
01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:50,440
Speaker 1: the dime just means to me, you got three guys rushing,

1205
01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,120
Speaker 1: you got eight people dropping off. I know usually it

1206
01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:56,680
Speaker 1: means six defensive backs, but just so people can visualize this,

1207
01:02:57,280 --> 01:03:00,000
Speaker 1: he's kind of spying. And he did this a bunch.

1208
01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:02,280
Speaker 1: To the last three or four plays, he made a

1209
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:07,360
Speaker 1: great play a receiver, he covered Elliot as well. Really

1210
01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:10,840
Speaker 1: he did some good things. And then look, I mean

1211
01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:14,040
Speaker 1: when you have an opportunity, I mean, this is an

1212
01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:17,720
Speaker 1: opportunity for Ryan Neil. Guy comes off the practice squad,

1213
01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:21,040
Speaker 1: wakes up Sunday morning, thinks he's going to church, and

1214
01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:24,240
Speaker 1: they said, no, put on the pads. You're playing today,

1215
01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:27,240
Speaker 1: not only you're playing. Jamal Adams gets hurted. You're now

1216
01:03:27,720 --> 01:03:31,919
Speaker 1: starting and you're out there and he seals the victory. Man,

1217
01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:35,320
Speaker 1: I can't even imagine how excited he must have been.

1218
01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:37,960
Speaker 1: After that game. They interviewed him, we had him on

1219
01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:42,480
Speaker 1: you know, the postgame show. He downplayed it, but man,

1220
01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:44,960
Speaker 1: that's that's a dream come true. I can tell you

1221
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:47,040
Speaker 1: how excited he was. You know why, because I was

1222
01:03:47,080 --> 01:03:50,920
Speaker 1: in the same situation. We're playing. I want to say,

1223
01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:54,880
Speaker 1: week two or three. I'm a practice squad guy. So

1224
01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:58,040
Speaker 1: the team leaves to go to Buffalo one week. You know,

1225
01:03:58,040 --> 01:04:00,240
Speaker 1: are I go. I go back home to Pullman, I mean,

1226
01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:04,280
Speaker 1: a nice little weekend and we're watching the game and

1227
01:04:04,360 --> 01:04:06,680
Speaker 1: I see Nate Burleson go down and I look at

1228
01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:09,000
Speaker 1: my boy. I go, hey, I'm up, goes what you

1229
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:11,480
Speaker 1: mean in mind? I'm gonna play next week. I get

1230
01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:13,480
Speaker 1: the call. And now it wasn't the day before the

1231
01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:15,680
Speaker 1: day of like like Neil, but I get the call

1232
01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:20,040
Speaker 1: and um, I get my opportunity to play, and I

1233
01:04:20,080 --> 01:04:22,680
Speaker 1: caught upon. I took it forty something yards. No one

1234
01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:25,200
Speaker 1: expected me to do anything, how to cash that game. Now,

1235
01:04:25,240 --> 01:04:27,760
Speaker 1: I didn't see the game like Neil did. I didn't.

1236
01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:31,240
Speaker 1: I didn't do that, but um, very proud moment for

1237
01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:33,120
Speaker 1: that dude. There was a moment where he caught the

1238
01:04:33,160 --> 01:04:35,720
Speaker 1: interception and goes down to the ground like he he

1239
01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:39,000
Speaker 1: stays there for two seconds like secures the interception, like look,

1240
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:40,800
Speaker 1: I'm not letting this go. Then he stands up and

1241
01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:43,960
Speaker 1: he just lets out like a roar like I'm here,

1242
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:48,200
Speaker 1: I've made it. So this young man. Big ups to

1243
01:04:48,480 --> 01:04:51,120
Speaker 1: Ryan Neil. I know how you feel, and I'm not

1244
01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:52,919
Speaker 1: a rapper. See what I did there? That was good?

1245
01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:55,600
Speaker 1: You know what I was just watching his play again,

1246
01:04:55,600 --> 01:04:58,280
Speaker 1: I didn't even really notice it. Um. I'm glad he

1247
01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:03,360
Speaker 1: Neil made that because they had the backside uh slot work.

1248
01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:05,120
Speaker 1: He ran to the post, but because he had so

1249
01:05:05,200 --> 01:05:07,760
Speaker 1: much time, everybody kind of slowed up a little bit

1250
01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:10,200
Speaker 1: thinking it was a sack. He was working at the

1251
01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:12,200
Speaker 1: very back of the end. I think Ryan would have

1252
01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:14,760
Speaker 1: got back there, probably could have still interceptor knocked it away.

1253
01:05:15,080 --> 01:05:17,720
Speaker 1: But I'm glad it ended the way it did. Glad

1254
01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:20,280
Speaker 1: it did. We want to talk defense. We're talking to

1255
01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:23,240
Speaker 1: Paul Moore. He's breaking it down. Coming up next? Is

Speaker 1: as one of the biggest bus of all time? Will he?

1258
01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:30,600

1268
01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:09,480
Speaker 1: it's exploding, it's it's it's not just national international, international,

1269
01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:13,600
Speaker 1: internationally known. No, that is pit bull pit. See. I

Speaker 1: try to learn you every every episode. I try to

1271
01:06:16,200 --> 01:06:19,560
Speaker 1: learn you think you think I don't know, so you

1272
01:06:19,720 --> 01:06:25,880
Speaker 1: answer for me. Okay, now we're good. All right, let's

1273
01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:29,560
Speaker 1: go around the NFL, and let's let's start with the

1274
01:06:29,760 --> 01:06:34,640
Speaker 1: NFC West. Now, going into the season, Paul I thought

1275
01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:37,240
Speaker 1: the NFC South might be a tough division. You got

1276
01:06:37,280 --> 01:06:40,480
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan, you got Drew Brees, you got Tom Brady.

1277
01:06:40,680 --> 01:06:43,480
Speaker 1: But this NFC West is something special right now. The

1278
01:06:43,560 --> 01:06:46,360
Speaker 1: team who won it last year is the weakest team

1279
01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:49,160
Speaker 1: in this division right now. Yeah, look, you got three

1280
01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:52,680
Speaker 1: great quarterbacks and one great team. You know, forty nine ers.

1281
01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:54,880
Speaker 1: I think are really good football team there. The injury

1282
01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:57,680
Speaker 1: bunks killed and they don't have a great quarterback. But look,

1283
01:06:57,720 --> 01:07:00,800
Speaker 1: I mean I think Golf is uh with the right

1284
01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:05,120
Speaker 1: time and system, and he has that. We know what

1285
01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:07,400
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, I think you know that Kyle Murray is

1286
01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:10,040
Speaker 1: is gonna be an issue. We're gonna see really competitive

1287
01:07:10,120 --> 01:07:12,000
Speaker 1: is gonna be fun I still think we're the best

1288
01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:14,080
Speaker 1: in the West, best in the West. Yeah, like the

1289
01:07:14,080 --> 01:07:18,520
Speaker 1: way that sounds all right, Monday night football, Yeah, Lamar,

1290
01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:22,520
Speaker 1: I was highly disappointed. I knew Patrick Mahomes is gonna

1291
01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:25,200
Speaker 1: be Mahomes, but I know that a lot of things

1292
01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:27,720
Speaker 1: have to go right for Lamar to be Lamar. But

1293
01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:29,880
Speaker 1: I didn't think he was gonna turn out that way.

1294
01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:34,000
Speaker 1: They try to compare these two like Brady and Manning.

1295
01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:36,840
Speaker 1: There's no comparison at this point. Yeah, And I don't

1296
01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:39,440
Speaker 1: think it's fair either for Lamar. I mean, look, you

1297
01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:41,960
Speaker 1: can have a bad game. He first two games he

1298
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:44,560
Speaker 1: was lights out, and look in the first quarter he

1299
01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:47,560
Speaker 1: was lights out. I go oh. I even thought after

1300
01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:49,800
Speaker 1: the first six seven minutes, I go, oh, he's gonna

1301
01:07:49,800 --> 01:07:54,360
Speaker 1: outplay Mahomes here. But Mahomes is he's special, man, I

1302
01:07:54,360 --> 01:07:57,560
Speaker 1: mean he's just he's special. I mean, he's he's He's

1303
01:07:57,600 --> 01:08:00,240
Speaker 1: gonna be one of the greatest, if not the great,

1304
01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:01,880
Speaker 1: when it's all said and then. He can do an

1305
01:08:02,360 --> 01:08:04,560
Speaker 1: he can run, he can escape, He he makes a

1306
01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:08,120
Speaker 1: really good decision. He has an arm that is like

1307
01:08:08,160 --> 01:08:10,800
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. When I watch him throw, there's something, there's

1308
01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:13,400
Speaker 1: an arrogance about him where I go. Why did you

1309
01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:16,599
Speaker 1: throw it like that? I mean, there's no one around you.

1310
01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:19,479
Speaker 1: You don't need to back up and flick it. You

1311
01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:23,439
Speaker 1: can step into it. My homes does it right. And

1312
01:08:23,479 --> 01:08:25,880
Speaker 1: then he'll run to the left, and he'll there's only

1313
01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:28,880
Speaker 1: two guys who can run harder there left maybe throughout

1314
01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:35,439
Speaker 1: throw Aaron Rodgers in there and make a dime throw. Well,

1315
01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:37,120
Speaker 1: I get to give him some love that went on

1316
01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:40,679
Speaker 1: the top throws when he's running sideways, he'll make that flick,

1317
01:08:41,479 --> 01:08:43,479
Speaker 1: but he does it in the middle of the pocket.

1318
01:08:43,720 --> 01:08:46,439
Speaker 1: I there's He's the only quarterback I don't like in

1319
01:08:46,439 --> 01:08:49,160
Speaker 1: the NFL's the only one. He's the only one. Okay,

1320
01:08:49,240 --> 01:08:52,720
Speaker 1: all right? How about these dvs getting paid Garo and Garopolo?

1321
01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:55,120
Speaker 1: We I know, I don't know the people know about.

1322
01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:58,479
Speaker 1: I know you don't like Garpolo More dbs getting paid.

1323
01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:01,880
Speaker 1: Ravens made Marlin Humphrey the highest paid corner in the

1324
01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:06,640
Speaker 1: league with the five year, ninety eight million dollars contract,

1325
01:09:06,680 --> 01:09:11,160
Speaker 1: averaging nineteen per year. Is he worth it? I don't

1326
01:09:11,160 --> 01:09:14,760
Speaker 1: even know. You know why, because as you know, we

1327
01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:18,600
Speaker 1: watch who we play, and I watched our team. You know,

1328
01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:20,880
Speaker 1: you watch the games, and you know, I didn't know

1329
01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:23,960
Speaker 1: that much about Gilmore. I knew he was Defensive Player

1330
01:09:23,960 --> 01:09:26,400
Speaker 1: of the Year last year, and then all shun I

1331
01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:28,240
Speaker 1: put on the film before the game, watched a couple

1332
01:09:28,240 --> 01:09:32,640
Speaker 1: of games. I go, oh, he is special. So I

1333
01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:35,880
Speaker 1: figured five years, ninety eight million, nineteen million a year,

1334
01:09:37,240 --> 01:09:39,840
Speaker 1: he's got to be pretty special. Eighteen big ones he

1335
01:09:39,920 --> 01:09:41,599
Speaker 1: must be. Now let's take it all right, let's talk

1336
01:09:41,600 --> 01:09:44,800
Speaker 1: about these quarterbacks. Russell Wilson, Patrick Mahomes. It's a two

1337
01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,559
Speaker 1: horse race as of now when it comes to MVP

1338
01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:50,320
Speaker 1: or just the best quarterback in the league. Now, I

1339
01:09:50,479 --> 01:09:59,280
Speaker 1: was on Bob Day. That's not Bob d I was

1340
01:09:59,360 --> 01:10:01,760
Speaker 1: on it was Bobby Mom. I'm sorry. I was on

1341
01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:03,760
Speaker 1: that show earlier today and they asked me, They go,

1342
01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:08,720
Speaker 1: all right, so what time are you? Yeah, four thirty

1343
01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:11,000
Speaker 1: because you can't make it. Uh. But they asked me,

1344
01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:14,200
Speaker 1: they go, all right, who's the best receipt of not

1345
01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:17,840
Speaker 1: best quarterback in the NFL right now? Um, and I

1346
01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:22,280
Speaker 1: go Russell Wilson and Keishaan was like, no, Russell's playing

1347
01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:27,160
Speaker 1: the best, but Patrick is the best. That's a trick question.

1348
01:10:27,479 --> 01:10:30,960
Speaker 1: I mean, that's like, who's the best NBA player. You

1349
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:33,479
Speaker 1: know it's Lebron Bo. But you know who's played the

1350
01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:37,720
Speaker 1: best in the play. I think Russell Wilson, for what

1351
01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:39,760
Speaker 1: we do and the way he's playing right now, is

1352
01:10:39,800 --> 01:10:45,240
Speaker 1: the best quarterback in league. Would I take Patrick Mahomes Absolutely?

1353
01:10:45,400 --> 01:10:49,160
Speaker 1: I think he is so gifted. I love his humility.

1354
01:10:49,240 --> 01:10:51,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm following his mom on Twitter because they

1355
01:10:51,920 --> 01:10:54,160
Speaker 1: keep calling him Pat. She goes if they call him

1356
01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:57,360
Speaker 1: Pat one more time because I guess the dad's Pat

1357
01:10:57,400 --> 01:11:01,679
Speaker 1: and he's Patrick, right, So I just everything about their family.

1358
01:11:01,800 --> 01:11:06,479
Speaker 1: I love everything about him, his humility, his leadership. He's

1359
01:11:06,600 --> 01:11:10,960
Speaker 1: three years in the league, He's But I'll take Russell.

1360
01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:15,000
Speaker 1: I'll take Patrick. You know, give me. Here's the real question.

1361
01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:19,320
Speaker 1: Who's gonna make a billion dollars first, Russell or Patrick.

1362
01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:21,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Russell just because he's been an owner

1363
01:11:21,840 --> 01:11:25,120
Speaker 1: of a franchise, a part owner before Mahomes. Now Mahomes

1364
01:11:25,240 --> 01:11:26,800
Speaker 1: is making all the right moves. First off, you've got

1365
01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:30,439
Speaker 1: a bigger contract man, You've already bought a franchise younger.

1366
01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:34,320
Speaker 1: He's younger, but I feel like Russ. Russ has things

1367
01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:37,560
Speaker 1: going down though we don't even know about Russell entrepreneurs.

1368
01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:43,320
Speaker 1: Russell is Russell's red carpet superstar. Patrick mahomes the best player,

1369
01:11:43,680 --> 01:11:46,479
Speaker 1: but because he really doesn't care for the lime light

1370
01:11:47,439 --> 01:11:51,920
Speaker 1: and Russell has these goals outside of football. I mean,

1371
01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:56,160
Speaker 1: Russell's gonna be I don't I wouldn't want to be

1372
01:11:56,240 --> 01:11:58,640
Speaker 1: a president, so he ain't going down that path and

1373
01:11:58,720 --> 01:12:01,759
Speaker 1: don't pay enough. But he's gonna be something really special

1374
01:12:01,840 --> 01:12:04,800
Speaker 1: and he already is. And come buy an income wife.

1375
01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:08,080
Speaker 1: He's making some good coins. Yeah, yeah, so we'll go

1376
01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:11,960
Speaker 1: that rout as well. Philly. Beginning of this season, I said,

1377
01:12:11,960 --> 01:12:16,120
Speaker 1: if Jalen Hurts touches the field, Carson Wentz better watch out. Now,

1378
01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:20,120
Speaker 1: Peterson says, Carson Wentz is my guy. That's knee jerk

1379
01:12:20,200 --> 01:12:23,000
Speaker 1: reaction to think that we're gonna put this this rookie

1380
01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:25,479
Speaker 1: in and this youngster in. I think it's closer than

1381
01:12:25,520 --> 01:12:28,920
Speaker 1: people realize. I agree, and I really love loved him

1382
01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:31,360
Speaker 1: coming out. I mean, he's he's just a winner, you know.

1383
01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:34,840
Speaker 1: He he's a little Russell Wilson. You know, what are

1384
01:12:34,840 --> 01:12:36,639
Speaker 1: you gonna say about him? All the guy ever does

1385
01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:39,000
Speaker 1: is win. He's a great leader. He does all the

1386
01:12:39,120 --> 01:12:42,040
Speaker 1: right things. I think you're right, but look how many

1387
01:12:42,040 --> 01:12:44,960
Speaker 1: times have you heard, oh, this coach is safe. Yeah,

1388
01:12:45,040 --> 01:12:47,439
Speaker 1: I'll never make a change on the quarterback. They will

1389
01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:50,280
Speaker 1: when they need to right now. You know, I think

1390
01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:53,479
Speaker 1: Wentz probably sticks around for a little bit longer. Sixth round, Okay,

1391
01:12:53,560 --> 01:12:57,400
Speaker 1: the worst division in the NFL, I'm gonna go n

1392
01:12:57,479 --> 01:13:02,439
Speaker 1: MC East, Yeah, Boys, Giants, Philly Washington. Well, I think

1393
01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:06,599
Speaker 1: on record right now, I would agree with that. Man.

1394
01:13:06,640 --> 01:13:10,479
Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys are still a really good football team. Um.

1395
01:13:10,520 --> 01:13:13,519
Speaker 1: I think you just got some quarterback issues with the

1396
01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:15,840
Speaker 1: rest of those guys. I mean you could throw the

1397
01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:19,439
Speaker 1: ASC East in there too. I mean, you know, Buffalo

1398
01:13:19,520 --> 01:13:23,600
Speaker 1: is having a nice year, but they're traraditionally without the Patriots.

1399
01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:25,599
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens with the Patriots as the season

1400
01:13:25,640 --> 01:13:28,320
Speaker 1: goes on. I'm not sold on their defense, all right.

1401
01:13:28,360 --> 01:13:34,160
Speaker 1: This week, Carson for the for the Seahawks. He's back. Yeah. Now,

1402
01:13:34,280 --> 01:13:36,719
Speaker 1: I I picked up Carlos Hide to my fantasy football

1403
01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:39,920
Speaker 1: team thinking that he was gonna get the start. Sounds

1404
01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:42,960
Speaker 1: like Carson might get the start. How much should we

1405
01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:48,639
Speaker 1: expect out of that young man? Um? He hadn't gotten

1406
01:13:48,640 --> 01:13:50,600
Speaker 1: a lot anyways, right, I mean, I don't know if

1407
01:13:50,600 --> 01:13:52,960
Speaker 1: he's had he had twenty carries in a game yet,

1408
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:56,439
Speaker 1: I don't know if he has. Yeah. And then with

1409
01:13:56,439 --> 01:13:59,640
Speaker 1: with Hide and Um, I think it's tough because I

1410
01:13:59,720 --> 01:14:02,320
Speaker 1: wrote a couple of guys obviously in the passing game.

1411
01:14:02,320 --> 01:14:06,080
Speaker 1: On third down, I'm gonna give you fifteen carries. You

1412
01:14:06,160 --> 01:14:09,120
Speaker 1: might get a touchdown or two, though, but I think

1413
01:14:09,160 --> 01:14:12,120
Speaker 1: Hide may get more carries because while he's gonna play

1414
01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:15,680
Speaker 1: and probably gonna start, he not one hundred percent healthy. No,

1415
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:18,240
Speaker 1: that was a chicken. You know what moved by. You

1416
01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:20,639
Speaker 1: already know the hill guy. He should definitely should get fined,

1417
01:14:20,720 --> 01:14:22,719
Speaker 1: all right. Last one I got for you, Paul, Yeah,

1418
01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:26,799
Speaker 1: Atlanta versus Green Bay, Monday night football. If Atlanta wins

1419
01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:30,360
Speaker 1: this game, should we take them seriously? Well, I think

1420
01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:32,600
Speaker 1: you should take a land serious anyway. They should be

1421
01:14:32,640 --> 01:14:35,559
Speaker 1: two and one. They were only lost. They really should

1422
01:14:35,560 --> 01:14:37,800
Speaker 1: have lost two. So coaching, you're saying coaching lost that

1423
01:14:37,920 --> 01:14:41,519
Speaker 1: game there, Well, I think it's just we're watching the game.

1424
01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:44,240
Speaker 1: I remember we had Jessman who's now off to Q

1425
01:14:44,479 --> 01:14:48,200
Speaker 1: thirteen and we'll miss her here on the show and stuff.

1426
01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:51,200
Speaker 1: But we're watching it. I go, oh, oh, they're gonna

1427
01:14:51,200 --> 01:14:54,800
Speaker 1: blow it again. And it's against Chicago, who while they

1428
01:14:54,800 --> 01:14:56,479
Speaker 1: were two and o, it's a bad two and oh

1429
01:14:56,520 --> 01:14:59,120
Speaker 1: football team right now. And now you got falls in there,

1430
01:14:59,720 --> 01:15:02,000
Speaker 1: and I'll be darn if they don't come back. I

1431
01:15:02,080 --> 01:15:04,880
Speaker 1: just think it's one of those Oh is it gonna

1432
01:15:04,880 --> 01:15:07,639
Speaker 1: happen to us again? It's not the coach, your players.

1433
01:15:07,800 --> 01:15:09,560
Speaker 1: They got a good enough players. They just gonna go

1434
01:15:09,600 --> 01:15:13,160
Speaker 1: out and make it happen. Tough game though, against the Packers.

1435
01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:17,840

1450
01:16:05,840 --> 01:16:10,559
Speaker 1: You just said your favorite nights to the world. We're

1451
01:16:10,560 --> 01:16:15,000
Speaker 1: comparing yourself. I was just about to say, First off,

1452
01:16:15,080 --> 01:16:17,439
Speaker 1: you'll never see me in another man's jersey. If his

1453
01:16:17,560 --> 01:16:20,000
Speaker 1: name isn't Kobe, I would wear a bump us jersey.

1454
01:16:20,040 --> 01:16:21,800
Speaker 1: I wouldn't make it. I wouldn't allow you to do

1455
01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:25,719
Speaker 1: that on Thursday night. We're gonna do it one night, Okay, okay,

1456
01:16:25,720 --> 01:16:27,960
Speaker 1: if we can have a jersey exchange, can we have

1457
01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:30,640
Speaker 1: a ceremony prior in Like, yeah, we're gonna film it.

1458
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:33,120
Speaker 1: We're gonna put it on Twitter. Okay. If it's a

1459
01:16:33,200 --> 01:16:35,760
Speaker 1: jersey exchange, then I'm down. But I felt like you

1460
01:16:35,800 --> 01:16:37,719
Speaker 1: were a son of me. Oh wait, wait, wait doesn't

1461
01:16:37,760 --> 01:16:41,240
Speaker 1: allow jersey exchange and they don't, so we're we're we

1462
01:16:41,360 --> 01:16:45,400
Speaker 1: gotta wait, but you can shake hands though, we can. Yeah,

1463
01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:48,479
Speaker 1: all right? So what they're going to Miami seven to

1464
01:16:48,560 --> 01:16:51,479
Speaker 1: one on the road last year. Should we expect this

1465
01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:54,880
Speaker 1: to continue? I think it should continue. If they're not four, No,

1466
01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:58,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be highly disappointed. Palm more Well, I always say,

1467
01:16:59,479 --> 01:17:03,120
Speaker 1: whoever's the best quarterback on the field usually has a

1468
01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:07,000
Speaker 1: good chance to win, unless you got garbage behind you. Right, Um,

1469
01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:08,680
Speaker 1: we have a good football team. We got a good

1470
01:17:08,720 --> 01:17:11,840
Speaker 1: offensive line, we got scale positions all over the place.

1471
01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:14,160
Speaker 1: It's gonna come down to us having to force some

1472
01:17:14,320 --> 01:17:18,800
Speaker 1: turnovers on Fitzpatrick when he did that the first game,

1473
01:17:18,840 --> 01:17:21,479
Speaker 1: he threw three of them against the Patriots, you know,

1474
01:17:21,680 --> 01:17:25,760
Speaker 1: and we had Armando on earlier from Miami and he

1475
01:17:25,840 --> 01:17:28,760
Speaker 1: was saying, it didn't feel like they're in the game,

1476
01:17:28,800 --> 01:17:30,559
Speaker 1: but they were. I mean they were. I mean, if

1477
01:17:30,560 --> 01:17:32,880
Speaker 1: they had scored on those instead of those interceptions. One

1478
01:17:32,960 --> 01:17:36,400
Speaker 1: was just a dumb interception, they got a chance to win.

1479
01:17:36,439 --> 01:17:38,760
Speaker 1: The other one they were behind. Against Buffalo, he didn't

1480
01:17:38,760 --> 01:17:41,639
Speaker 1: throw any, but he rallied him back. And then last

1481
01:17:41,640 --> 01:17:44,679
Speaker 1: week he didn't throw any and they put a whooping

1482
01:17:44,760 --> 01:17:48,679
Speaker 1: on him. So we gotta get some turnovers on the road.

1483
01:17:49,200 --> 01:17:51,759
Speaker 1: They're not a better team, they don't have better skill players.

1484
01:17:52,120 --> 01:17:55,439
Speaker 1: But we look, you got Ryan Neil prop maybe starting

1485
01:17:55,439 --> 01:18:00,639
Speaker 1: in the secondary for us. You know, that's replacing Jamal Adams. Um,

1486
01:18:00,680 --> 01:18:02,240
Speaker 1: you know, we're banged up a little bit on the

1487
01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:05,599
Speaker 1: offensive line, though, I think we got enough depth there. Uh,

1488
01:18:05,640 --> 01:18:08,400
Speaker 1: you know, we lose you know, we've had Irvan. We

1489
01:18:08,680 --> 01:18:11,479
Speaker 1: don't really have a Leo, you know, So what do

1490
01:18:11,560 --> 01:18:13,240
Speaker 1: we do there that's gonna be entering. I think you

1491
01:18:13,240 --> 01:18:15,640
Speaker 1: can see a lot of Cody Barton, and rightfully, I

1492
01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:18,280
Speaker 1: have no problem with that. I actually I like he's

1493
01:18:18,320 --> 01:18:20,799
Speaker 1: good football player. So to me, it's all about turnovers.

1494
01:18:20,920 --> 01:18:24,040
Speaker 1: Can we get a shout out? We haven't miss him?

1495
01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:28,240
Speaker 1: Him and that guy came through seven tackles. Wasn't expecting

1496
01:18:28,479 --> 01:18:32,440
Speaker 1: at holding down that nickel position. Like, I was comfortable

1497
01:18:32,520 --> 01:18:35,240
Speaker 1: watching him work, and there were there were times last

1498
01:18:35,320 --> 01:18:37,800
Speaker 1: year where I'm like, let's get out of nickel. I'm

1499
01:18:37,800 --> 01:18:40,000
Speaker 1: not sure if I want to do that. I watched

1500
01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:42,320
Speaker 1: twenty eight do his thing, and I'm okay with it.

1501
01:18:42,360 --> 01:18:44,120
Speaker 1: Made a huge play on I think it was his

1502
01:18:44,200 --> 01:18:46,920
Speaker 1: own blitz on one of them. It was they were

1503
01:18:46,920 --> 01:18:48,800
Speaker 1: here in the red zone on the south side of

1504
01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:51,280
Speaker 1: the stadium and he made a big play on a

1505
01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:52,880
Speaker 1: third down, came back and I think it was there

1506
01:18:52,880 --> 01:18:55,800
Speaker 1: tight end he knocked it away from He did some

1507
01:18:55,840 --> 01:18:57,960
Speaker 1: really good things in the running game and the passing game.

1508
01:18:58,120 --> 01:19:00,599
Speaker 1: There are some times where he thought he was thinking

1509
01:19:00,600 --> 01:19:02,320
Speaker 1: a little bit because if we're doing a lot, we're

1510
01:19:02,360 --> 01:19:06,240
Speaker 1: blitzing forty percent of time and passing situation, they're running

1511
01:19:06,240 --> 01:19:09,200
Speaker 1: some different type of coverages that metfect to one that

1512
01:19:09,320 --> 01:19:12,600
Speaker 1: Griffin we talked about earlier, intercepting. You know, I'm not

1513
01:19:12,640 --> 01:19:15,160
Speaker 1: sure exactly what we were doing, but we really funneled

1514
01:19:15,200 --> 01:19:18,120
Speaker 1: over to the three wide receiver side and had everybody there.

1515
01:19:18,120 --> 01:19:20,680
Speaker 1: So there's there's some stuff going on, but for the

1516
01:19:20,680 --> 01:19:25,679
Speaker 1: most part, look, I am very pleased with him there.

1517
01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:28,960
Speaker 1: He makes plays, he's a thumper. We could play him

1518
01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:32,360
Speaker 1: at the safety position if need be. That was a

1519
01:19:32,400 --> 01:19:36,080
Speaker 1: really good draft pick for us. Who I want to

1520
01:19:36,080 --> 01:19:38,920
Speaker 1: see I've been waiting to see all year. Last year

1521
01:19:38,960 --> 01:19:42,839
Speaker 1: it was jean Or Sua. This year is DJ Dallas.

1522
01:19:43,120 --> 01:19:45,080
Speaker 1: I want to see these young men hit the field.

1523
01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:47,559
Speaker 1: I thought this week might have been the week because

1524
01:19:47,640 --> 01:19:50,519
Speaker 1: Chris Carson banged up injuries. It looks like he might

1525
01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:53,920
Speaker 1: play on Sunday. That means Penny has I mean not

1526
01:19:54,000 --> 01:19:56,280
Speaker 1: Penny Carlos Hide has to chill for a little bit.

1527
01:19:56,320 --> 01:19:59,000
Speaker 1: He might get his carries. But DJ Dallas, that's the

1528
01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:01,920
Speaker 1: guy I want to see as there anybody that maybe

1529
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:04,599
Speaker 1: has played already, hasn't played already that you're looking forward

1530
01:20:04,600 --> 01:20:07,680
Speaker 1: to see it. Well, the guy that I'm kind of

1531
01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:11,519
Speaker 1: surprised hasn't got more touches and more playing time is

1532
01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:15,439
Speaker 1: will Disley. I'm surprised. Look, Olsen has done a nice job.

1533
01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:17,519
Speaker 1: He doesn't have the speed I think of Will dis

1534
01:20:17,560 --> 01:20:21,160
Speaker 1: I think he's healthy, using probably more in the running game.

1535
01:20:22,320 --> 01:20:24,840
Speaker 1: That'd probably be the only one. Give me Freddie Swayin,

1536
01:20:25,439 --> 01:20:27,800
Speaker 1: give me some more Freddy Swayn. I think you know

1537
01:20:27,880 --> 01:20:30,559
Speaker 1: he's a guy that has a chance to if you

1538
01:20:30,640 --> 01:20:35,639
Speaker 1: sleep on him, he can burn you. But other than that, no,

1539
01:20:35,760 --> 01:20:37,600
Speaker 1: I mean we're I think we're playing the guys we

1540
01:20:37,760 --> 01:20:39,840
Speaker 1: need to play. And you know we're not gonna see

1541
01:20:39,840 --> 01:20:41,839
Speaker 1: Brooks for a few weeks. I was kind of excited

1542
01:20:41,840 --> 01:20:44,720
Speaker 1: to see him. He was doing some good things for

1543
01:20:44,880 --> 01:20:48,200
Speaker 1: he got hurt last week. But no, let's just keep

1544
01:20:48,200 --> 01:20:51,840
Speaker 1: it just hey, let him throw the ball first of all.

1545
01:20:51,920 --> 01:20:54,120
Speaker 1: The reason why I said that is he's never cooked

1546
01:20:54,120 --> 01:20:58,599
Speaker 1: in his life. Never. I mean, Russell Wilson Sierra might cook.

1547
01:20:58,960 --> 01:21:02,919
Speaker 1: But they've got some there. They've got all these natural

1548
01:21:03,200 --> 01:21:07,320
Speaker 1: path people and cooking for him. He doesn't cook, so

1549
01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:09,720
Speaker 1: let's just let him throw the ball, you know, throw it.

1550
01:21:09,840 --> 01:21:13,200
Speaker 1: He doesn't cook, He just serves. There's people behind him cooking. Like, look,

1551
01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:16,000
Speaker 1: here's your mental health, your physical health, you know, your

1552
01:21:16,040 --> 01:21:19,040
Speaker 1: well being. We got all these things for you. Now

1553
01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:21,600
Speaker 1: you go out and then serve these defenses with a

1554
01:21:21,640 --> 01:21:24,280
Speaker 1: dish that they're just not ready for. If you're if

1555
01:21:24,280 --> 01:21:28,160
Speaker 1: you're bringing in thirty five million a year pushing in

1556
01:21:28,200 --> 01:21:31,280
Speaker 1: your next contrast gonna be even bigger than that. You

1557
01:21:31,400 --> 01:21:34,000
Speaker 1: have a team around you, and you make sure that

1558
01:21:34,080 --> 01:21:36,519
Speaker 1: I can do this till I'm in my forties. Yeah,

1559
01:21:36,640 --> 01:21:39,840
Speaker 1: because you know you're at some point he's gonna be

1560
01:21:39,840 --> 01:21:43,880
Speaker 1: making forty fifty million bucks a year. Oh my goodness. Yeah,

1561
01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:46,160
Speaker 1: that's why I said first one to a billion wins.

1562
01:21:46,840 --> 01:21:49,960
Speaker 1: I think my homes may beat him. Because he's younger.

1563
01:21:50,800 --> 01:21:54,679
Speaker 1: He's gonna get two more of those. Russell has probably

1564
01:21:54,680 --> 01:21:57,439
Speaker 1: got one more huge contract coming up, but don't be

1565
01:21:57,479 --> 01:22:00,599
Speaker 1: surprised if he yes, two, wouldn't be surprised. This offensive

1566
01:22:00,640 --> 01:22:04,679
Speaker 1: line needs to continue to protect Russell Wilson. I looked

1567
01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:07,160
Speaker 1: at the stats. I believe he has maybe five or

1568
01:22:07,240 --> 01:22:10,400
Speaker 1: six sacks, the leader in the league has about nine

1569
01:22:10,479 --> 01:22:13,400
Speaker 1: to ten sacks, so they're not where they used to be.

1570
01:22:13,640 --> 01:22:16,559
Speaker 1: They're making progress. Brandon Shell is doing this thing. Damian

1571
01:22:16,640 --> 01:22:19,719
Speaker 1: Lewis has banged up, but he played okay. He has

1572
01:22:19,760 --> 01:22:23,000
Speaker 1: his his rookie rookie hiccups and all that. But post

1573
01:22:23,040 --> 01:22:25,760
Speaker 1: Sick is doing it. Toddy, if he's healthy, he's doing it.

1574
01:22:25,840 --> 01:22:28,600
Speaker 1: Dwayne Brown is the most reliable offensive lineman that the

1575
01:22:28,680 --> 01:22:31,680
Speaker 1: Hawks have. I can't banged up though. Well he's banged up,

1576
01:22:31,680 --> 01:22:35,520
Speaker 1: and you know he got He got beat twice inside

1577
01:22:35,560 --> 01:22:40,400
Speaker 1: moves by by Alton smith Sacks. You know that surprised

1578
01:22:40,400 --> 01:22:42,160
Speaker 1: me a little bit. I will, but I am gonna

1579
01:22:42,160 --> 01:22:44,679
Speaker 1: give him a little out on the couple on one

1580
01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:48,240
Speaker 1: of them, for sure. There's something going on with this turf.

1581
01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:51,960
Speaker 1: It's slippery? Are you do you work for the forty

1582
01:22:52,040 --> 01:22:55,120
Speaker 1: nine ers? No, No, I see I saw it, and

1583
01:22:55,240 --> 01:22:58,240
Speaker 1: maybe not as much on us. I see it more

1584
01:22:58,240 --> 01:23:01,599
Speaker 1: than the other teams are looking around round. There's something about,

1585
01:23:01,840 --> 01:23:05,240
Speaker 1: you know, whether it's a little spongy, not quite getting

1586
01:23:05,360 --> 01:23:08,080
Speaker 1: used to it. We've done it too where we slipped sometimes,

1587
01:23:08,640 --> 01:23:12,120
Speaker 1: um and maybe that's more like natural grass that you

1588
01:23:12,160 --> 01:23:15,040
Speaker 1: think it's turf. I don't have to have my feet

1589
01:23:15,120 --> 01:23:18,640
Speaker 1: underneath me. But that first sack by Brown when he

1590
01:23:18,680 --> 01:23:21,240
Speaker 1: went to go plant, it looked like his left foot

1591
01:23:21,320 --> 01:23:23,280
Speaker 1: just kind of slid out a little bit, so he

1592
01:23:23,320 --> 01:23:27,320
Speaker 1: didn't have that base and Smith came inside on him. Um,

1593
01:23:27,360 --> 01:23:31,200
Speaker 1: not an excuse, it's just something to watch and see

1594
01:23:31,240 --> 01:23:35,000
Speaker 1: if that's a trend. You say that, and then I

1595
01:23:35,040 --> 01:23:38,040
Speaker 1: think about, Okay, the Hawks outside facility is on the grass.

1596
01:23:38,439 --> 01:23:41,760
Speaker 1: Inside facility, they're on the turf. Um, so that might

1597
01:23:41,800 --> 01:23:47,800
Speaker 1: be a possibility. I'll give him that, but that's no, no, no, no,

1598
01:23:47,840 --> 01:23:51,400
Speaker 1: it's not the Giant met Life Stadium. We can't play

1599
01:23:51,400 --> 01:23:55,080
Speaker 1: here because the injuries. It's more of it's a home

1600
01:23:55,120 --> 01:23:58,519
Speaker 1: field advantage of you know that. You it's more like grass,

1601
01:23:58,760 --> 01:24:00,840
Speaker 1: so you've got to have your feet in the right

1602
01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:03,840
Speaker 1: position as a safety, linebacker, all that stuff. That's all

1603
01:24:03,840 --> 01:24:06,280
Speaker 1: I'm saying something. So I was giving Brown a little

1604
01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:08,200
Speaker 1: bit of an out, is what I've opened out. Yeah,

1605
01:24:08,240 --> 01:24:11,240
Speaker 1: he's a veteran, he was born at eighty five, greatest

1606
01:24:11,280 --> 01:24:17,760
Speaker 1: year of humanity. He's still playing and you're doing a show. Hey,

1607
01:24:17,840 --> 01:24:25,000
Speaker 1: you've been retired that loan. You know what, who's winning him? All? Right? Hey, Oh,

1608
01:24:25,120 --> 01:24:28,599
Speaker 1: Michael Bumbas, that's my guy, Paul Mary. We got NASA
