7
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 2: A red zone team period here. Now for the offense,

8
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,560
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers in the shotgun with Gainwell and Caleb Johnson

9
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 2: in the backfield.

10
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 3: Now we'll see that a lot, but that's not Yeah,

11
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,959
Speaker 3: it's something that Arthur Smith has used over the years

12
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,279
Speaker 3: sometimes with Quarterall Patterson is kind of the receiving back

13
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 3: nice route.

14
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: By nice route by Gainwell. It just got half of

15
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 2: a step on Eccles and Rogers thread of that one in.

16
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 3: There wasn't bad covered. But I mean he's had a

17
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 3: little bit of leverage and Rogers put exactly where he should.

18
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 2: A little bit a little bit Rogers now he.

19
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 3: Plans for gain Well. That's all I can say.

20
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 2: Definitely, yeah, him and him and Darnell Washington feel like, yeah,

21
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 2: factors for this offense.

22
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 3: That's it. That's great. Called he couldn't be more different.

23
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 3: But they're both gonna do maybe things you don't expect

24
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 3: or things we haven't seen yet.

25
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 2: They stand next to each other, they don't even look

26
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 2: like they Yeah.

27
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 3: Sport, but that's often true with Washington.

28
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, to be fair, no doubt he looks like that's

29
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 2: standing next to a lot of people out here. Rogers

30
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 2: will continue to operate from the shotgun and now it's

31
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 2: Jalen Wore in the loane back Connor Hayward will move

32
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 2: in motion from left to right. Now back left, mooth

33
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 2: and DK split out back shoulder, back shoulder for.

34
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 3: I'm not sure Wilson knew that's was the move. I

35
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 3: don't think so, because he did not adjust like his

36
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 3: back shoulder, and he's complaining that he should got flagged.

37
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 3: Maybe he did get grabbed a little bit, but he

38
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 3: might also be Ye, I don't think Rogers is th.

39
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 2: Old of them seeking some comfort with that.

40
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got flagged.

41
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 2: Rogers just kind of slammed his helmet down.

42
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think he's looking at him like you're the principal.

43
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 3: I got one on one there. I am throwing that

44
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 3: back shoulder and you didn't know it. I don't care

45
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 3: if somebody grabbed your.

46
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 2: He's got his arm around him. The hostile conversation, but

47
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 2: you could come over here to the principal's office for

48
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 2: a second. Let's talk about it.

49
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: Now.

50
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 3: Roman's getting out of the principles. I'm going back to recess.

51
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 2: It was all in the constructive way. He put his

52
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 2: arm around him and said.

53
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 3: Hey, I don't know how harsh the words were.

54
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 2: But he didn't put his arm around him, so it

55
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 2: at least looked friendly.

56
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 3: It was not thrilled with put adjustment.

57
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 2: But what if he put his arm around him, Hey,

58
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 2: if you ever do that.

59
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 3: Again, right, that might be the last boy ever throw.

60
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 2: Mason Rudolph will check in for the second team offense. Yeah,

61
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 2: and a day that I think started out very well

62
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 2: for Rogers. A little frustrating with the nick to his leg.

63
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's gotten a little downhill from there.

64
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 2: And that was not his fault, nor.

65
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 3: Was the one that happened to break where he hit Connor.

66
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 3: Hayward didn't get his head around, throws a bullet to him,

67
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 3: pops up. These two defensive backs fumble it and then

68
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 3: Ramsey comes out of nowhere and takes you to the house. Yeah.

69
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 3: Also not on the quarterback.

70
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 2: Rudolph under center now with Trey Sermon in the backfield,

71
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 2: gets the snappy's rowing to the end zone for Scotty

72
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 2: Miller broken up by Darryl Porter.

73
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 3: You can see that's kind of a similar, big, heavy set,

74
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 3: bunch of people near the ball. No, you're getting one

75
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 3: on one on the outside. I'm pretty much throwing this

76
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 3: no matter what. Wilson doesn't adjust to the back shoulder,

77
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 3: Miller doesn't go be big and beat the corner. You

78
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 3: know the fact that like the Larry conversation we had,

79
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 3: you know, like I got you one on one, I

80
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 3: need you to win those, you know. And I'm not saying, boy,

81
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 3: now you gotta go trade for a receiver. But that's

82
00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 3: not going to be Miller and Wilson's strength to begin with.

83
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 3: And you know, Austin's not the biggest guy either. When

84
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 3: thows one on one matchups with size and physicality, nice

85
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 3: little gain, well another.

86
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 2: Nice little quick slant. They're well blocked by Robert Woods.

87
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 3: I think he's going to catch more passes than we think.

88
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 2: I think so too, I do I think they're gonna

89
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,479
Speaker 2: try and use him as kind of a matchup. Yeah,

90
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 2: and maybe some of that will relate to how, you know,

91
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 2: when the Steelers are in twelve and thirteen personnel, how

92
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 2: teams go about yeah a lot, you know, or we

93
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 2: see a base or we see a nickel. Then what

94
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 2: does that allow us to do with gain Well as

95
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 2: well too? To get some matchup?

96
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 3: You know, That's kind of what I was thinking, Like

97
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 3: when gain Well's in the game as the single back,

98
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 3: no matter if it's with two tight ends and two

99
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 3: receivers or three tight ends and one receiver, you can

100
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 3: go empty easily. Now I like that better with a

101
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 3: running quarterback because now the whole planet knows you're throwing.

102
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,039
Speaker 3: You know, you're not going to run quarterback power with

103
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers, whereas fields you might have, but you still

104
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 3: could go empty if you're going to get heavier personnel

105
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 3: with one back on the field and just have game

106
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 3: Well do wide out stuff because he's done a lot

107
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 3: of pure wide out stuff.

108
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 2: He sure has my screen there by the way moves well. Yeah, yeah,

109
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 2: that screen game, I think is something we're gonna mm hm.

110
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 3: That was well timed.

111
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 2: Plenty of the season screen.

112
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 3: Game was ugly early in camp.

113
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 2: Has uh tell you what it's funny too. You look

114
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 2: at like the too far side fields compared to this

115
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 2: close one, you can see it a little beat up.

116
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 3: It's a little yeah yeah, right down the middle.

117
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,280
Speaker 2: Round down the middle and on the sidelines here where

118
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 2: all the guys do their different drill the boy.

119
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 3: The fields have held up great, very well camp. There's

120
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 3: been some camps for their disaster.

121
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 2: And they had some some rainy, soggy days here early

122
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 2: on in camp. And big shout out as always to

123
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 2: the grounds crew. One of these years, Matt, we're gonna

124
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 2: get the grounds q on for an interview.

125
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:49,280
Speaker 3: I have so many questions.

126
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 2: We're gonna make it happen one of these years. Maybe

127
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 2: you know what we need to try and do is

128
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 2: and I know I'm I'm planning very far ahead here.

129
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: I'm talking like fifty weeks into the future. But every year,

130
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 2: like the Friday Night Light Show is a slower one,

131
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 2: right because there's no practice going on that day. We

132
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 2: should like when we get to camp next year, we

133
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,359
Speaker 2: should try and set it up, you know, like hey guys,

134
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 2: Friday night Lights Day, like pop up with us for

135
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 2: ten minutes, give us for one secment, just give it

136
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 2: just one of you for ten minutes that we can

137
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 2: pick your brain on what you guys got going on

138
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 2: out here and everything. Maybe we'll try and line that

139
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 2: up for next year's camp. As Max Harlman in motion

140
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 2: now Skyler Thompson under center, Evan Hall the loan back.

141
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 3: Switching to play Apparently.

142
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 2: Yep, Thompson signals something out Now the give is to

143
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:38,599
Speaker 2: haul find a nice hole there. Yeah, certainly, and uh,

144
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 2: Hall hit it quick. Hall hit it quick, and he

145
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 2: hauls that one into the end zone. And is that

146
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 2: the end of practice as well?

147
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

148
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 2: As Mike Tomlin once again in shorts today, I really

149
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,280
Speaker 2: can't believe again one of the craziest developments of camp.

150
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 2: I've never seen to wear shorts before. Now he's not once,

151
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 2: He's had them on like every day. Now, Hey, maybe

152
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 2: he's finally at that point where, like I used to

153
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 2: ask Motes about that all the time, like, what's with

154
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 2: the obsession with We're gonna be out here in ninety

155
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 2: degree heat, let's all wear black hoodies and black sweatpants,

156
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,239
Speaker 2: right though, he was like, real simple, It's just everyone

157
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 2: wants to prove that they're tough. Everyone wants.

158
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 3: Assumed that was the short answer, and maybe he's proven

159
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 3: that after being the head coach for many many years.

160
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 2: Nearly two decades at the Helm, he doesn't have to free.

161
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 3: Time in Yeah, I assume that's what it was.

162
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 2: Practice now has officially concluded. Mike Tomlin brings the guys

163
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 2: in for one last breakdown here at Saint Vincent College

164
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 2: for this twenty twenty five portion on campus. Matt, there

165
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 2: we go, man, just like that.

166
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 3: It's in the books, in the books, and they're look

167
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 3: pretty happy. Like tomorrow's basically a walk through. It looks

168
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 3: like they're all kind of offensive defense, giving each other hugs,

169
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 3: good work. You know, they all realize this is the

170
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 3: last real thing that they'll do on this field this year.

171
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 3: Many of them won't be back next year. Many will,

172
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 3: but no, it's a little bit different feel after this

173
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 3: practice right now. A lot of hugging and nice work

174
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 3: and good camp, you know, and I know camp isn't over,

175
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 3: but still this portion basically.

176
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 2: Is and there is no doubt a I mean, it's listen,

177
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 2: it's part of the camaraderie that they all love about

178
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 2: this right that you hear Jalen Ramsey talking about Yeah,

179
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 2: you hear and you hear Aaron Rodgers talking about like

180
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 2: there is a real kind of embrace the suck element

181
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 2: together out here, you know, away from your families, in

182
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 2: the dorm rooms on campus, in the weather elements and everything,

183
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 2: and so that's certainly you know, when you make it

184
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 2: through that together, there's some hey, you know, high five,

185
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 2: well done, we did it.

186
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, we did it. You're right right. Nothing was perfect.

187
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 3: We got better out here. We became a better team,

188
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,559
Speaker 3: We became a more bonded team. Some friendships were made,

189
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 3: and I think there's a lot to be said for that.

190
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 2: Fifteen practices out here, Matt, fifteen in the books now

191
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 2: over the course of what twenty day, it's about fifteen

192
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 2: practices in twenty days, That sound right, I think that's

193
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 2: that sounds a right right, Yeah, that's about the number

194
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 2: there as we have a quieter like crowd on hand today,

195
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 2: I think a little bit light and it feels like

196
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 2: it's last. Last day is usually the lightest then it's

197
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 2: a Tuesday, and it's super hot out here today, but

198
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 2: we will see. Uh, some of the guys stay out

199
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 2: here for some extra work.

200
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 3: The autograph seekers might do well today though today's probably

201
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 3: less competition.

202
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,199
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, if we're going to peel back

203
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 2: the curtain for everybody, you know on some of the

204
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,439
Speaker 2: how that move, how the sausage is made. If you're

205
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 2: someone with kids and you like to come out here

206
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 2: to watch the Steelers, and you bring your kids with

207
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,559
Speaker 2: you because they want to chase autographs, last day is

208
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 2: probably a good day to hunt that downs less people.

209
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 2: And I just say, these guys are in a better mood.

210
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 3: Like they they're not leaving today.

211
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 2: You know they're leaving tomorrow, but it's the last physical

212
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 2: practice out here. Everyone's in a good mood.

213
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 3: They might be more apt to grab the pen and

214
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 3: give you an extra ten minutes or whatever. And it's

215
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 3: definitely less competition for autographs.

216
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 2: Than usual, exactly right. So there's a little little peel

217
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,199
Speaker 2: behind the curtain for you. Somebody's down here in the

218
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,439
Speaker 2: end zone with a Jack Sawyer Ohio State Jersey hope

219
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 2: they always like I think we said that a couple

220
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 2: of weeks ago. It felt like every time Sawyer and

221
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 2: Howard's somebody holding up a scarlet jersey, they made a

222
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 2: b line right over to him to sign it, which

223
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 2: I I totally get.

224
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 3: That's I remember Nausey's rookie year. Yeah, there was a

225
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 3: lot of people using that trick with Bama stuff, and

226
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 3: he he bit over and over and over.

227
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 2: Over and over again to pick it too. Like I

228
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 2: remember Kenny would, he'd see like pit stuff and be like, hey,

229
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 2: give me that, let me sign that. Yeah that's cool.

230
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 3: You know, smart move, guys. It absolutely is a strategy

231
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 3: for this stuff.

232
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 2: That's what I'm gonna go down outside of the lunch

233
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,439
Speaker 2: room with the Wu Jersey and see exactly sign it

234
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 2: as let's see here, Let's see who's getting some extra

235
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 2: work in and running down to the jugs machine post practice.

236
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 2: It's been a little while since we've seen Ramsey.

237
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 3: It's usually Ramsey's move, but I.

238
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 2: Wonder if I wonder if we'll see him a social

239
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 2: hour it is, and like a lot of the position

240
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 2: groups or taking pictures together. Yeah, Eddie Faulkner is taking

241
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 2: a picture with all the running backs down there. Pat

242
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 2: Fryer move getting some some instruction from Alfredo Roberts the

243
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 2: tight ends coach down there. Now, all the wide receivers

244
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 2: are taking a picture together. I don't know if zach

245
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 2: Azani is in the is in the group there, but

246
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 2: all the wide receivers are taking a picture together as

247
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 2: we're gonna have some of the edge rushers working on

248
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 2: some stuff here too. Looks like TJ is doing a

249
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 2: little a little pass rushing clinic for these guys, which

250
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 2: is always good.

251
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 3: As Uh, there's been a lot of that.

252
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 2: There has been a ton of that and uh for

253
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 2: the edge guys. Watching Jalen Ramsey walk down there, and

254
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's heading towards the jugs machine.

255
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 2: He is with Makaiah of the Steelers PR team, so

256
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 2: maybe he's got some he might have some interviews and

257
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 2: some media obligations before he can hit the jugs. Troy

258
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 2: FALTONU looks like he's doing some media stuff down there. Well.

259
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 2: I did want to check if any extra offensive lineman

260
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:54,199
Speaker 2: we're working on on quarterback center exchanges like we saw yesterday.

261
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 2: Don't see don't see any of that right now.

262
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 3: There's not a lot of football going on now. It's

263
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 3: kind of social, you know. Yeah, Like I said, picture

264
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 3: sessions things like that, they've earned it. Yeah, absolutely a

265
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 3: little bit different feel after this practice than the others.

266
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, as Connor, Connor Hayward and the guys were, uh,

267
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 2: just working on a tackling dummy drill over there, and

268
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 2: Connor I think, got a little hitching his steps. Can

269
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,439
Speaker 2: you see him over there in the end zone kind

270
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 2: of Oh yeah, yeah, I kind of limping along a

271
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:23,959
Speaker 2: little bit.

272
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's not thrilled, Yeah, he was not.

273
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 2: He hit that. He hit that sled.

274
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 3: Hard, man. I'm not sure why they're tackling the sled

275
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,440
Speaker 3: sled though, that has all the metal on it.

276
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 2: It looked like they were just kind of goofing around

277
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 2: and had run with it type thing. He's moving a

278
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 2: little bit better now, but he was.

279
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 3: Somebody else is down there. I mean, I understand, you know,

280
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 3: working on tackling, but there's a good chance so that's

281
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 3: not going to go well.

282
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 2: I mean that is like a live tackle it to

283
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 2: the ground type.

284
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 3: That's like a sled you push, that's not that's not

285
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 3: designed to be tackled, exactly right, a lot of metal

286
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 3: and base on it, you know.

287
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 2: Exactly right. Connor taking a seat and stretching himself out

288
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 2: a little bit there. We'll keep an eye on that.

289
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 2: Some of the offensive linemen are still down here. We'll

290
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 2: see if we see anybody working on center quarterback stuff.

291
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,839
Speaker 2: But I know Skyla Thompson is still down there, so

292
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 2: I guess they do still have a quaye they're on

293
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,719
Speaker 2: there that they could that they could work with as U.

294
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, the center stuff is a little hairy for the

295
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 3: two preseason games coming up. Obviously not frasier with.

296
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 2: The end yes, but but again, I mean, you you

297
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 2: gotta you gotta have some You've gotta have some options there,

298
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 2: and that's part of, uh, part of what this is

299
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 2: all about is figuring out those options. Is t J

300
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 2: and Jack Sawyer and a couple of the edge rushers

301
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,319
Speaker 2: are going over some stuff with Denzel Martin, the outside

302
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 2: linebackers coach. A lot of the guys are down there

303
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 2: in the end zone working on some some tackling dummy stuff.

304
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's uh, this is a fun thing to do

305
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 3: after the first last practice. That's some sort of tradition.

306
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 2: I'm not sure. I don't I don't recall that. But

307
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 2: it's also like wide receivers and tight ends you know,

308
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 2: that are just kind of working on the.

309
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 3: They're offensive players, for sure.

310
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 2: Are offensive players that are working on this, on this

311
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 2: tackling dummy. So maybe it's some of the special teams

312
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 2: guys looking to get some some extra work in.

313
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 3: We have seen the old lineman do tackling drills during practice.

314
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 3: I have not seen any of the skill guys like

315
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 3: this group working on any tackling.

316
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 2: DK metcalf on the jugs machine down to the right,

317
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 2: I was trying to see. Still don't see Jalen Ramsey

318
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 2: down there, So maybe.

319
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 3: He must have got scooped up for the media.

320
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 2: He must have gotten gotten nabbed for for something. And

321
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 2: there's like a bunch of youth football kids over there too,

322
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 2: so maybe that's what they're doing. Maybe they're taking some

323
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 2: pictures and talking to some of the youth football guys

324
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 2: that are out here for the day.

325
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 3: But Matt, there are some quarterbacks center stuff here though. Yes,

326
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 3: there is shotgun stuff for potential centers.

327
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 2: Yes, is that sharping working right now? Yeah it is.

328
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 3: But nesters there I was really paying attention to.

329
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 4: Yeah.

330
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 2: I have a feeling we'll see Nestor step up and

331
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 2: take it on shotgun. Some snaps here, certainly, but let's

332

Speaker 2: get to a break. We'll bring you the fire final

Speaker 2: as there's some fun of things going on on the field.

348
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 2: Is that Johnny Smith working the jugs down here?

349
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 3: I think so.

350
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 2: I think it is.

351
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 3: He's so consistent about that. I think he's still going

352
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 3: to get that in no matter what.

353
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 2: And he's another guy who's got kind of a unique

354
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 2: build and body.

355
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 3: Tel Yeah usually can tell.

356
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 2: That does look like him. So that's an encouraging sign

357
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 2: that Yeah still out there.

358
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 3: You know, it's not running or anything, but right doing.

359
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 2: His his jugs routine though as some final kind of

360
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 2: work with Skyler Thompson and some of the centers is

361
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 2: in the books since we returned from break and all

362
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 2: is pretty quiet out here now at chut Old Field.

363
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 3: There's some scrums like deep in the end zone and stuff,

364
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 3: but all in all, it's wrapping up yep.

365
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 2: A couple guys signing autographs down there, a couple of

366
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 2: guys talking to the media, but uh, for the most

367
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 2: part that is going to do it practice fifteen of

368
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 2: fifteen in the books, and another training camp for us

369
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 2: here Matt where Hey, I know we probably say the

370
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 2: same thing every year, but man, a lot to deuce

371
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 2: a lot I think that we've learned in the last

372
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 2: couple of weeks. Always yeah, still with with with plenty

373
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 2: to come here in the next few weeks as well too.

374
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 3: Absolutely, there's still a lot of work to be done.

375
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 3: I mean I always urge people to realize that there

376
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 3: could be another roster addition. I mean there's students that

377
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,159
Speaker 3: got added late in the process that went on to

378
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 3: be big time Steelers, either get cut or still out there.

379
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 3: Maybe that's Andres Pete, you know, I mean he was

380
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 3: a recent addition that could be a keeper. Maybe there's

381
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:27,919
Speaker 3: a trade in the work. So there's there's still a

382
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 3: lot of things that are going to happen with this team,

383
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 3: and unfortunately, knock on wood, there'll probably be a couple

384
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 3: of injuries in these upcoming games too. You know that,

385
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 3: you know, could derail some things too.

386
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 2: That's a life for the national football It just is. Yeah,

387
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,920
Speaker 2: And of course a guy who knows that very well

388
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 2: is Aaron Rodgers. Escaped a little bit of a scare today.

389
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:47,399
Speaker 2: We were talking about you.

390
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 3: That didn't feel good earlier.

391
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, sure, didn't feel good. Mike Tomlin and his post

392
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 2: practice media wrap up said nothing, nothing to nothing of

393
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,879
Speaker 2: concern there, you know, just just in some pain and

394
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 2: again like getting a cut down your your shin is

395
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 2: not a great feeling fun, absolutely not. But seems like

396
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 2: in the grand scheme of things, no harm, no foul

397
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 2: for the Steelers. QB one who took some time to

398
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:14,440
Speaker 2: speak before practice on the final day here in with troube.

399
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 2: Here's what number eight had to say, Thank you.

400
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 5: Doing practices are more better?

401
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:18,920
Speaker 2: Personal view?

402
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 5: What do you like about him? What you looking forward

403
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 5: to about this? I said that I appreciate.

404
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:25,879
Speaker 4: Well for the starters yet because we don't play them

405
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:27,160
Speaker 4: crazy a lot of times.

406
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know.

407
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 4: I think the thing you're always hopeful for is there's

408
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 4: not a lot of fights. We went against Tampa a

409
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 4: couple of years ago and had some vesting guys and

410
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 4: it was pretty clean practice. So hopeful for another clean

411
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 4: practice with them. But it's good to go against a

412
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 4: different team. I think what I said was I'm remembering,

413
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 4: and you get a chance to go against not vanilla defenses,

414
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 4: So hopefully Todd, Yeah, he probably won't show everything, but

415
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 4: we'll they do some stuff to stress.

416
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 5: Our protection and give us a chance to get some

417
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 5: film to work on.

418
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:00,679
Speaker 2: What are some of the things took out of the

419
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 2: first prestance of year.

420
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:07,120
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I'm just you know, I'm just silent observer.

421
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 4: I think for the for the most part, just watching

422
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 4: the operation. And I can't stay silent in the entire

423
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 4: time on the headset because I gotta be the voice

424
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 4: of reasons sometimes. Although I felt like the headset was

425
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:26,919
Speaker 4: pretty clean. You know, there's not a lot of freaking

426
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 4: out on there, not a lot of people talking and

427
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 4: they shouldn't be talking. So I thought the operation was good.

428
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 4: That Mason and Sky played fantastic. I played great, made

429
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:38,880
Speaker 4: good decisions, would go with football, opportunistic and like I said,

430
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 4: you know, it's different in the preseason. You know it's

431
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 4: it's football like it's not always real football. But they

432
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,199
Speaker 4: brought some pressures against US late in the game, and

433
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 4: Sky did a nice job of hanging in there and

434
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 4: in keep for a great contested catch touchdown. So there

435
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:54,159
Speaker 4: were a lot of a lot of great things on

436
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 4: the film the way we started the game. That Mason

437
00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:00,400
Speaker 4: was super efficient given Darnell a big, big bodyball.

438
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 5: There and there, and the red zone was great, and

439
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,119
Speaker 5: I think, uh, there's always things to work on the details,

440
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 5: especially with.

441
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,880
Speaker 4: The second units. Uh were a little bit off about that. Overall,

442
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 4: you score thirty, you don't turn.

443
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 5: The ball over.

444
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 4: Uh you really only have one sack cause Mason's taking

445
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,920
Speaker 4: the other one there and then one combination of kJ

446
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:19,360
Speaker 4: not yet now, And I thought it was.

447
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 5: A pretty clean game.

448
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 2: Aaron, that seems like the fluidity continues to improve with

449
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:24,399
Speaker 2: the first team offense out here.

450
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:25,359
Speaker 5: What's the leading to that?

451
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 4: Well, I think I'm playing a little bit better, you know,

452
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 4: I feel comfortable on the offense. And DK and I've

453
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 4: been uh getting on the same page. Uh a little

454
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 4: more free movie which uh, which helps. But you know,

455
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,479
Speaker 4: we've had we've had some injuries. Obviously Calvin's been out

456
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 4: for a while.

457
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 2: Uh.

458
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 5: So we love gamback, but it gives opportunities for other guys,

459
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 5: you know.

460
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 4: I think, Uh, I think Scott he's done a really

461
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,919
Speaker 4: nice job, made a lot of players for US Lake Romans,

462
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 4: starting to you know, feel confident in what he's doing.

463
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 4: And i'd love to tied end. I think you're getting

464
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 4: a lot of production out of those guys. Again, but

465
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,640
Speaker 4: Johnny out, Uh, one guy I'd love to single out

466
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 4: is uh Is Connor. I mean, Connor does the right

467
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 4: thing every time. He's a really smart football player, and the

468
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 4: smartest players are the best players. So he's the kind

469
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 4: of guy you feel real confident that you could put

470
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 4: him in there at any time and and know he's

471
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 4: gonna be on the same page.

472
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 2: You said that you were sometimes the voice of freeze

473
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 2: in on the headset. What does that sound like.

474
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 5: What's an instance when you.

475
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,919
Speaker 4: Would get on there, Well, sometimes people freak out on

476
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:27,639
Speaker 4: that and start to yell on the screaming. Four other times,

477
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 4: people who are talking they shouldn't be talking.

478
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 5: But I'm I'm more of the comic relief on there.

479
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 4: I would say, uh at least week point uh with

480
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 4: some with some you know, timely or ill timely jokes.

481
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 4: Uh untimely, I guess, but uh yeah, I've I've heard

482
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:44,919
Speaker 4: some freak outs in the fasts.

483
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 2: What should you get out of these weeks in La Trobe,

484
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 2: whether it's the you know, reps themselves, or learning guys

485
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 2: or even learning the.

486
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 3: Fan base and that kind of thing from this whole.

Speaker 4: Experience, Mike, Mike talks about it being things that you

488
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,200
Speaker 4: can't uh measure, you know, the connections that happened here.

489
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 4: Yesterday we had a home run derby year and I

Speaker 2: To the Do you make a point to on how

511
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 2: like Holme was a big draw when you signed her.

512
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 3: I'm sure it's what your relationships is like you you

Speaker 3: were signing.

514
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 2: Any rememberable rocket when.

515
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,359
Speaker 3: You're off the Super Bowl or any other previous and

Speaker 5: I don't really run the super Bowl.

518
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,479
Speaker 4: Uh just the one time we try to catch him

519
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,160
Speaker 4: at twelve on the field and he called time out

520
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 4: pretty quick and I let go around. They kind of nodded.

521
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 5: I kind of nodded back. I've always respect him.

522
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,959
Speaker 4: I've talked to guys that played for the Steelers over

523
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 4: the years, Guys that we might have had after that

524
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 4: are friends around the league, and it's just, uh, you

525
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,719
Speaker 4: know the stuff that uh you hear about is uh

526
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 4: kind of the the foundational stuff.

527
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 1: Uh.

528
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:28,640
Speaker 4: Then you get to get to be here and see

529
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 4: how he interacts in the meeting and how he leads it,

530
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:32,639
Speaker 4: how he's on the practice field.

531
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 5: Uh, just his overall demeanor and conflidence and swag is

532
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 5: more pretty special.

533
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 2: Airing after the game in Jacksonville, I saw you walking

534
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 2: off with uh TJ Cam.

535
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 4: How often are you talking to those guys and how much.

536
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 5: Do you you know, listen to them and get advice

537
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 5: from them too? Uh all the time.

538
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not trying to break up that romance

539
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 4: because anytime I rip on one of the two, the

540
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,399
Speaker 4: other one just takes us back pretty quick. So uh,

541
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 4: I really love and respect that Friendship's uh it's a

542
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 4: cool one to watch. But you know, I mean I'm older,

543
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 4: so I gravitate till towards the old heads. And I

544
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 4: just happened to find myself walking you know. One of

545
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 4: the weird things is and I'm twenty one years in

546
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 4: the league, so I'm over there.

547
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,440
Speaker 5: Who do I know on Jacksonville?

548
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 4: You know, like I know Heath Farm with all the

549
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,159
Speaker 4: special teams coach that I played against him, Chad more

550
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 4: than he was with us.

551
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 5: And I've met Trevor a few times. So I was

552
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:23,920
Speaker 5: kind of looking.

553
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 4: Around going, you know, doing the Joe Biden like, all right, well,

554
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 4: I guess I don't know anybody here, so.

555
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 5: I'm gonna just walk off. And I found Cam and

556
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 5: the tej I walk next to him. You gravitate towards

557
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 5: the old heads, But are you intentional while trying to

558
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 5: stretch with different guys every day, whether it's veterans, young guys,

559
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 5: the linemen, outside linebackers. That's one thing I've noticed, it's Cam. Yeah,

560
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:46,639
Speaker 5: I mean that that is intentional.

561
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 4: You know, I've kind of found myself in like the

562
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 4: chef line over to the right anywhere from the like

563
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 4: third to the seventh time.

564
00:24:53,119 --> 00:25:02,479
Speaker 5: But I like to grab somebody new and and uh,

565
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,239
Speaker 5: you know, just have a quick chat with them. Uh.

566
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 5: You know so many times where I feel like the

567
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 5: expectation is the leaders gotta be the front of line.

568
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 4: But you know, sometimes to lead properly you have to serve,

569
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 4: you know, and serving sometimes I'm always been at the back,

570
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 4: and sometimes when you at the back, you can get

571
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 4: a good view of what's going on all the time.

572
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 4: You get a posse of the team. But uh, I

573
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 4: don't need to be out front.

574
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 5: The entire time. When I'm there, I wanna I wanna.

575
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,840
Speaker 4: Make connections with the guys, and sometimes those guys hanging

576
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 4: back or hanging them back for a reason play.

577
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 5: So those are the conversations I wanna have.

578
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:36,159
Speaker 2: An your previous steps.

579
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 5: Were you out in front all the time? It's something

580
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 5: elite to each other always I'm always moving around. I'm

581
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,159
Speaker 5: not I'm not super rigid about where I gotta be.

582
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 5: I gotta be in the front of the line every time,

583
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 5: you know.

584
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 4: Like we're doing the quarterback, uh, running back exchanges and

585
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:51,639
Speaker 4: the first time I did in the quarterbacks when you

586
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,479
Speaker 4: wanna take item with jailing every time, I think, oh Andy,

587
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 4: part of that's, you know, you get hand out to

588
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 4: different players, and other part is I'm tired. I don't

589
00:25:58,680 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 4: need to go back to the front of the line

590
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 4: after you know, I just took two reps. You guys

591
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 4: took one eat you know. But uh, but again, I

592
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 4: think that's part of it. It's just you got to

593
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 4: get to know every man on the rocks. I never

594
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 4: got ninety It's a point, there'll be fifty three and

595
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 4: sixteen on the piece.

596
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 3: By you know, you gonna have a relationship with.

597
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 5: All those guys, So you can't just have a head

598
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:16,199
Speaker 5: nod and a you.

599
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 4: Know, a wave every now and then. You get it's

600
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:19,200
Speaker 4: important to get to know him by name. And it

601
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 4: makes it hard here in Pittsburgh because there's no names

602
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 4: in the back of jerseys. So you're you know, I'm

603
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 4: always reintroducing myself. Making sure I got somebody's name and

604
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 4: I remember somebody's name is an important part of finding

605
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 4: that connection.

606
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 2: Two more, two more.

607
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 5: Aaron wasn't like, does everybody know more? I mean your

608
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 5: reaction with the guys, I mean your four time MVP

609
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,879
Speaker 5: Hall of Famer you get a are they kind of

610
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 5: an awe for a quick second?

611
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 2: You get that?

612
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 4: Ever, I think in the beginning, yeah, there's there's some

613
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 4: trepidation for sure, but uh, you know, Mason was one

614
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 4: of them.

615
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 5: I had to really break him down. He was kind

616
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 5: of that's.

617
00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 4: He now, basonally right. I mean, he's been one of

618
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,719
Speaker 4: my favorite guys n I got here. But a lot

619
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 4: of guys are a little you know, shy of maybe

620
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:05,920
Speaker 4: come up to you. So you got to break the

621
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 4: ice off them with them. Some of them is just

622
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 4: like going out.

623
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 5: And sitting next to him at lunch and they kind

624
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 5: of goa, what the hell you doing here? Have lunch?

625
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 3: What do you Yeah?

626
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 5: But I think that's part of you got to find

627
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 5: ways to break the ice with those.

628
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,919
Speaker 2: Guess last one, last one you would talk I.

629
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 5: Think with a mini camp by the helmet you didn't

630
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 5: like what you had.

631
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, I still don't like you know, I don't like. No,

632
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 4: I'm trying to change. We're in the process. Still looks

633
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 4: like a dance face ship out there. You gotta change

634
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 4: the face mask doesn't been down it because that's an

635
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 4: old face mask obviously, just like I'm a little but

636
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,159
Speaker 4: we're trying to find the right helmet right now.

637
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 2: How big of a deal is that Matt with him

638
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 2: and like hating all these new helmets that he's been

639
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 2: trying to wear throughout this process?

640
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 3: A dog nude tricks like a thing. Yeah, you get

641
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 3: really used to your equipment, and especially a helmet. I

642
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 3: mean it becomes like a personal item to you and

643
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 3: your your vision of it. And I always go back

644
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 3: to it. Was after Antonio Brown left and he went

645
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 3: with the Raiders, people thought he was a lunatic because

646
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,399
Speaker 3: he didn't like his helmet. Yeah, probably a lunatic for

647
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 3: other reasons. But I mean that's a big deal. These

648
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 3: guys are so attached to their exact equipment. And you

649
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 3: played hockey. It's you know, you mentioned your stick and

650
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 3: things like that, same type of deal, right, And I

651
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 3: don't want to use new skates or you know, a

652
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,880
Speaker 3: new bat or a new glove. It's more like a glove. Yes,

653
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 3: it's totally different, right, right, right, different different, Yeah, you know,

654
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 3: a baseball glove, you know, yeah, it really becomes yours,

655
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 3: you know.

656
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 2: I think especially for from his standpoint, like what he's

657
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 2: used to seeing through the scope that helmet, right, maybe

658
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 2: now the angles are a little bit different.

659
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 3: That's why I brought up brown is like I think

660
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 3: when he looked over his head to track the ball,

661
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 3: he couldn't see it as well, you know, like it

662
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 3: was a vision thing, you know.

663
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that all makes sense. I mean you could

664
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 2: and this is something too. It's one of those if

665
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 2: you know, like if you ever played football growing up,

666
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 2: you can relate to You put that helmet on, and

667
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 2: your vision.

668
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 3: Is much different.

669
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 2: I mean, there are a lot of blind spots right right,

670
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 2: A in a in a helmet of that size, in

671
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 2: that magnitude, and yeah.

672
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 3: Your face mask you pick and all those type of

673
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 3: things too, you.

674
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 2: Know, absolutely, and especially for a quarterback where obviously you're right,

675
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 2: your vision is paramount to everything that you were trying

676
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 2: to do. Looks like last ones on the field. Now,

677
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 2: Mason Rudolph is down there with a whole group of

678
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 2: younger people.

679
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, boy, he's got a big pile, big.

680
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 2: Pile signing some autographs. Skyler Thompson still hanging out on

681
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 2: the cooler, drinking some water, taking in the final moments.

682
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 2: Other than that, I think is that Max Hurlaman over

683
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 2: there working on some stuff as well too. But it's

684
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 2: basically all cleared out here from the fans.

685
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 3: Kids doing well in autographs, players, yes, absolutely, most people

686
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 3: with Mosey don't up to the locker room and probably

687
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 3: gonna relax a.

688
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 2: Little bit exactly right as they've earned it, certainly, and

689
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 2: they'll have their kind of last walk through here tomorrow

690
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 2: morning before they get to hit the Latrobe five hundred.

691
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 2: But Matt and I are about twenty thirty minutes away

692
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 2: from getting at a Dodge and getting back to our

693
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 2: homes and our families, which is much needed at this time.

694
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 2: I think it's safe to say we're going to take it,

695
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 2: take our last break, come back for our final training

703
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:27,840

Speaker 2: this point in the air than I typically am. Yes,

727
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 2: no doubt. It's been a lot of fun, but it

728
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 2: is also it's always a lot of fun and a

729
00:31:56,440 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 2: lot of grind uh in there as well. So let's

730
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 2: put a bow on this thing. Let's wrap it up.

731
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been good.

732

733
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 2: around the league stuff with you. Matt tweets us and says,

734
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 2: my question is are we going to have a true

735
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 2: number wide receiver two? Do we have another? Or do

736
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 2: we have a wide receiver two or is it wide

737
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 2: receiver two? By committee thought we would have addressed this

738
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 2: by now, it seems like we're heading into the season

739
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 2: with Roman and Calvin. Can they carry the load?

740
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,719
Speaker 3: I have some concerns, yeah, I mean especially I keep

741
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 3: going back to what if DK gets hurt, you know,

742
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 3: I mean, and he did miss some time last year.

743
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 3: Anybody can get hurt anytime, as we know, it's the NFL.

744
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 3: I mean, I think it stands right now, it's pretty

745
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 3: clear that DK is far and away the number one.

746
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 3: Austin is the two, although we haven't seen him a lot.

747
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 3: And when there's two receiver sets, I think those will

748
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 3: be the guys that are out there. Wilson seems to

749
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 3: really have a stronghold on three. I would think Woods

750
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 3: is your four reliable, but he hasn't blown me away.

751
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 3: I don't even know that he's a lock to make

752
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 3: the team, but I would still be very much interested

753
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 3: in some sort of number two type guy to move

754
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,440
Speaker 3: everyone down the packing order a little, you know, I

755
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 3: would be very open to those possibilities. And if you

756
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 3: were to, you know, add someone via trade, you pretty

757
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,240
Speaker 3: you've got a pretty good amount of time between now

758
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 3: and opening day too.

759
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 2: Get that guy revved up absolutely absolutely again.

760
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's probably the position or most concerned about.

761
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 2: I think so, particularly again from that depth element, like

762
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 2: if you have a situation like last year where your

763
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 2: number one wide receiver goes down for a couple of.

764
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,000
Speaker 3: Weeks, that could be catastrophic.

765
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 2: That could be a big problem.

766
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 3: And I mean even if Austin doesn't go or whatever,

767
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 3: it is Wilson ready to be the two, as Wood's

768
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 3: ready to be the three, it's like it's okay.

769
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, And how does that effect what you can do

770
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 2: with your tight ends?

771
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 3: Is right, and that makes life a little easier. Of course,

772
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 3: so many athletic tight ends.

773
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 2: But if defenses can pay more attention to and q

774
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 2: on those tight ends more because don't have to pay

775
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 2: as much tension to the wide receivers, it kind of

776
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 2: all works in concert together.

777
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 3: If you will, absolutely another body there would be and

778
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 3: would be a welcome addition to me.

779
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 2: And still definitely think it's a possibility.

780
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think that that ship is sailed.

781
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 2: But yeah, if you could tell me right now that

782
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 2: they uh I.

783
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,800
Speaker 3: Think you mentioned it's a good twenty days until opening

784
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,800
Speaker 3: day something like that. Yes, I mean so, just because

785
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,920
Speaker 3: this is a last pack practice in Latrobe, doesn't mean

786
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 3: that the ship is sailed on adding people to the

787
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 3: roster or anything like that.

788
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 2: I completely agree. I completely agree, Andrew said tweets. It

789
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,319
Speaker 2: says peel back the curtain for us. What's one thing

790
00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 2: that you've been procrastinating throughout camp that you're not looking

791
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 2: forward to when you get home.

792
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 3: Hmm, Oh, I got a good one. I gotta I

793
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 3: gotta get. I gotta write a giant check for my

794
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 3: son's first tuition bill. Oh, we have like this. I

795
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 3: don't think much about it's a giant check, but I

796
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 3: don't know. I am not a finance type dude. But

797
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 3: we got like, you know, the five two nine college

798
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 3: account blah blah bl and I gotta figure out just

799
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 3: how to write them and all that, And gonna sit

800
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 3: down with my dad tomorrow afternoon and write a big

801
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 3: check and make sure it's coming from the right place

802
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,840
Speaker 3: and all that. But not exactly a fun exercise.

803
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 2: Anything involving that large sum of money is stressful.

804
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 3: And yeah, yeah, no doubt.

805
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 2: It's a big old man. I remember going through that

806
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 2: with my dad.

807
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 4: Uh.

808
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 2: For me, Matt, it's getting my car fixed.

809
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:24,360
Speaker 3: Oh, you got car stuff.

810
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 2: Yeah. I'm still for those who might remember that one

811
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 2: of the first nights of camp, like the first week

812
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,480
Speaker 2: of camp, I got hit and run here unfortunately when

813
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 2: my car was was parked, and uh so Friday, I

814
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 2: gotta go get that taken care of. And I'm just

815
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:39,920
Speaker 2: not looking forward to it. It's no I mean, it's

816
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 2: you know, insurance is handle it in it and all

817
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:44,959
Speaker 2: that stuff. It's you know, but it's just a paint.

818
00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:46,360
Speaker 2: Like I got to get a rental car for a

819
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,680
Speaker 2: day or two, and it's just a hassle. I'd have

820
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 2: to move both the car seats out of my car

821
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 2: and into.

822
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 3: The because they never go back the way they car

823
00:35:58,320 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 3: seats are not a good memory for me.

824
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 2: No, no doubt. I will be very happy the day

825
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:03,680
Speaker 2: that I no longer have to You don't want to

826
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 2: wish the days away with your kids, but I will

827
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 2: be happy on that day that I don't have to

828
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 2: mess with car seats anymore.

829
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, and we're in very different places as parents. But

830
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 3: this time next next week, my son will be in

831
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,319
Speaker 3: his second day at Kentucky and it'll just be weird

832
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 3: not having him around every day and all that stuff too.

833
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 3: You know, all of a sudden, we go from four

834
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,799
Speaker 3: people to three and now I got a mot lawn

835
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 3: and they all take out the garbage and able bodied

836
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 3: eighteen year old and it's kind of useful sometimes, you know.

837
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 2: Big change in life my seat. My sister's getting ready

838
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:35,440
Speaker 2: to start her senior year of college. Yeah, yeah, starting

839
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 2: his starting his freshman year. So yeah, interesting season of

840
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:39,840
Speaker 2: life for both of them, definitely.

841
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:43,399
Speaker 3: And I'm going to take a personal day early next

842
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 3: week to drive him there bench night and drop him

843
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 3: off and as you have, you.

844
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 2: Know, and that'll be I think you guys will have.

845
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 2: It'll be a little hectic because moving day always is.

846
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 3: But I don't know what to expect with that, all

847
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 3: different shifts, but still it's got to be a madhouse,

848
00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 3: right it is.

849
00:36:58,120 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 2: But that's the nice thing is they you know, you

850
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 2: got time, they keep it moving. They'll have you know,

851
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,880
Speaker 2: they'll have one hundred different like ras and volunteers around

852
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 2: to help you move and all that.

853
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, no doubt.

854
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 2: A couple around the league things here. Matt Jordan Love

855
00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:16,800
Speaker 2: with a thumb injury. Yeah, procedure on his left thumb,

856
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,359
Speaker 2: but not expected to miss any regular season time.

857
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,840
Speaker 3: We mentioned him a little bit in the Quarterback Tiers yesterday.

858
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 3: I am super high on his future. Played with some

859
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 3: injuries last year wasn't quite the same, but he is

860
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 3: really talented and you hope things like this don't linger,

861
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:35,520
Speaker 3: you know, but it sounds like it's kind of a

862
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,320
Speaker 3: day to day, week the week type of thing and

863
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 3: just shut him down for the preseason, get him the

864
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 3: week one.

865
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, unfortunate, but again, if he's ready to go for

866
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 2: the regular season, he's had to be fine. He's had

867
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:49,799
Speaker 2: two years now as the guy. It's not like he's

868
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:54,320
Speaker 2: just getting going in his career. And speaking of a

869
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:56,320
Speaker 2: guy that I think we discussed maybe the first or

870
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 2: second week of camp, Bill's running back James Cook. Yeah,

871
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,440
Speaker 2: returns to practice after his hold in.

872
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 3: So I imagine negotiations are going better or they're in

873
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 3: a better place.

874
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 2: That's what Sean McDermott said as well too.

875
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 3: Okay, so usually the way that works is like the

876
00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 3: next day or so chefter reports they signed a deal,

877
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 3: blah blah blah. You know, yeah, because it's probably real close.

878
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,280
Speaker 3: Bec just need to put paper or pen to paper.

879
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 3: The rams. Kyrien Williams recently signed a deal. I think

880
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 3: that's probably a real good jumping off point. They're similar

881
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 3: values to me, you know that it makes negotiations a

882
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,840
Speaker 3: little easier when one of your peers already does the

883
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:32,360
Speaker 3: work for you.

884
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:36,759
Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, that's a very good, very good point.

885
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 2: And then I guess finally here just Minnesota Vikings wide

886
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 2: receiver slash returner Rondell Moore season ending left knee injury

887
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 2: pre MRI test confirmed today.

888
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 3: Feel bad for him?

889
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:53,400
Speaker 2: Second straight year he's had a.

890
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a five to seven really small, explosive receiver

891
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 3: that's had injuries and his it makes you wonder, this

892
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:05,080
Speaker 3: is another bad one. This could be. I hope not

893
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 3: for the guy. I just know how league works. Yea.

894
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 3: The might be the last year of him, you know

895
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 3: what I mean, there's one that's the way it works.

896
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I I completely agree with you on that. It's

897
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:15,360
Speaker 2: like you and I were talking about a little bit

898
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 2: about that with Corey Trice. You know, he's such a uni,

899
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 2: such a unique body type.

900
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, the traits that you want and are

901
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:23,920
Speaker 3: hard to find.

902
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 2: They were very high on him when they drafted him.

903
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 2: They were very high on them this time last year.

904
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:30,319
Speaker 3: And don't forget though he's a seventh round pick because

905
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 3: of injury.

906
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 2: Because of injury, and you know, if you're right, like

907
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,319
Speaker 2: this league does not wait for anybody, and sometimes if

908
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 2: you that that can be enough to be the difference

909
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,959
Speaker 2: of you know, you making or not making a roster

910
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:46,320
Speaker 2: is just that whole. The best of the best ability

911
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:47,760
Speaker 2: is availability.

912
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:51,240
Speaker 3: And after a while, I just can't wait for you anymore. Exactly.

913
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:51,840
Speaker 3: That's the way it.

914
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,880
Speaker 2: Works, exactly right, Matt. I think that'll do it.

915
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, this was great. It was I was enjoying

916
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 3: my time at camp, and I also enjoyed my ride

917
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 3: home and getting home, you know, right, no doubt.

918
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 2: I always enjoy doing shows and hanging with you as

919
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 2: well too.

920
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,239
Speaker 3: Sure, I feel like you and I.

921
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:09,960
Speaker 2: It's funny. I think people would think like that we

922
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:11,919
Speaker 2: see a lot of each other during the football season,

923
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 2: but we really we really don't. Like it's trading camp

924
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 2: in the combine where you and I really get to

925
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 2: spend like, you know, maybe once a week we'll see

926
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 2: each other in the studios when that type of thing.

927
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 2: But you know, for the most part, this is this

928
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 2: is like the time where you and I get to

929
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 2: spend a lot of time together and I pick your

930
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 2: brain about all the football nerd stuff and you pick

931
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,719
Speaker 2: my brain about some music stuff or whatever's going on.

932
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:34,839
Speaker 2: Uh So I've enjoyed these last couple of weeks.

933
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 3: Man, thanks much, absolutely, thanks for filling in. I think

934
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 3: Thursday we're going to do another show from studio.

935
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no new shows Wednesday or Friday, but Matt
