1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:04,559 Speaker 1: You were tuned about Drive home of the Black and 2 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:20,440 Speaker 1: Goal Steelers Nation Radio. Welcome back to the Drive. I'm 3 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:23,079 Speaker 1: Dale Lali. He is Matt Williamson, and it's time for 4 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: the Fantasy Football Focus and Matt our DFS lineup on 5 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: our single game stand alone on Monday for Monday Nights 6 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys Buccaneers game. We hit that out of the park. 7 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: We crushed it, crushed it. Now that being said, we 8 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 1: finished two out of about twenty four thousand UH entries. 9 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,239 Speaker 1: We had Dalton Schultz in the captain's chair. That was 10 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 1: crazy or forty two point seven five points because he 11 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 1: gets a point and a half every point in scores. 12 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: Huge afer tight end theme going for the weekend too. Yeah. 13 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: Absolutely Uh. We had cd am at sixteen dollars and 14 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: eighty cents. He caught that touchdown Dak Prescott at thirty 15 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: nine six thirty nine point six points. If he instead 16 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: of running that one play the naked booty into the 17 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: end zone, if you notice on that play should all 18 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,400 Speaker 1: by himself in the end zone kind of like stand around. 19 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: He just kind of threw a half block on somebody. 20 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: We've probably won this thing. Um Tom Brady passes, which 21 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:30,680 Speaker 1: is what we suspected. I thought he'd have a little 22 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 1: more success doing it, but he threw sixty six passes. 23 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: He's done. He's done. Like people talking about where's Tom 24 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 1: Brady gonna go next year? It should be to the 25 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: retirement home. Yeah, it should be go hang with your kids, 26 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: you know, you know, I mean, I don't see it 27 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: going well, but I think he's gonna be a raider, 28 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: and I think it's gonna be I think they'll regret it, 29 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: and he'll regret it very much. Do He doesn't like 30 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: getting hit anymore. He does things he never did to 31 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: Like he's throwing on the run awkwardly and against his 32 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: body and because he doesn't want to get want to 33 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: get hit, and you know, like you know, they jinxed 34 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 1: him to no end. He's never throwing a red zone pick. 35 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: He throws that one away, but like doesn't see the 36 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: guy in the back of the end zone. Yeah, like 37 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: that's not who he is or was. Um. But he 38 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: got us twenty six points. Yeah, he threw the ball 39 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: six or six times. You're gonna be fantasy useful. Chris 40 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 1: Godwin got his eighteen catching that last one. Yeah, that's 41 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 1: all right. But Gobwin had eighteen and a half points 42 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: for us. He got I think you texted me through 43 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: the first quarter he's gonna have twenty catches this game, 44 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: and I think back he got hurt. Yeah, he was 45 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: on and off the field the rest of the game 46 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: because he was catching all these six yard passes and 47 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: then just getting drilled. That's their offense. And then finally 48 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: my man, Jake Ferguson got to say, thirty two yard 49 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: game for four point four points. Not bad for a 50 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: two I thought he was three ducks. But that was 51 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: our shot in the dark, and we hit it. You know. 52 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: We him really to catch one ball, yeah, really, And 53 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: and that four point four points that he got us 54 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,239 Speaker 1: allowed us to spend up for those other guys with 55 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: two quarterbacks for four point four point For a fewer 56 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: points we probably win. We won twenty dollars and twelve 57 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: cents on a five dollar investment, we would have won 58 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: maybe yeh double your money instead of So we had 59 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: a final score of a hundred forty eight point oh 60 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: nine points, which was I was very excited there for 61 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: a while. At one point, I think we were winning, 62 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: like thirty bucks were in the top two hundred, and 63 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, this is looking good because the person 64 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: leading it the overall winners depending on how many people 65 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: were tied for that thing. But I looked at one 66 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: point and it was like the winner was getting like 67 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: I want to say, like twelve thousand dollars or something like, Yeah, 68 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: we could get some serious cash here. We kind of 69 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: felt like we knew what we were doing on that one. Yeah, 70 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: I thought the Bucks would be more competitive in that game, 71 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: but I'm not shocked when we went down. Maybe this week, 72 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: since we're not necessarily picking all the games and those 73 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: kind of things, well do that when we go through 74 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: all the games on Friday, but maybe we'll pick a 75 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: weekend lineup and then a single game same line up 76 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: for one of the games. There's some fun games like 77 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Kansas City would be a fun one to prom 78 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: the Bengals Bills. Yeah, for sure. Let's take a look 79 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: at some of the player news going on in the 80 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: NFL right now here. On the big news around the 81 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 1: league is this guy's interviewing for OC this guy's you know, yeah, 82 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,359 Speaker 1: this is always such a weird week. Speaking of which, 83 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: Jerry Dolak reporting not that this is a real surprise 84 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: that the Steelers plan to bring MC Canada back again. 85 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,720 Speaker 1: I'm not surprised by this at all. He is under 86 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: contract for next year. UM. I had to sit down 87 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: interview yesterday with Kenny Pickett and uh, you know, he 88 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: talked about how he wants to have better ownership of 89 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 1: this offense next year. I think that's the move to make, 90 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: because you don't want your young quarterback and your young 91 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: offense having to learn an entirely new one. There's so 92 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: many examples of these quarterbacks that for four straight years 93 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: they had a different offensive coordinator. Like I thought my head, 94 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts for four straight years, I had different one 95 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 1: of those because he transferred from Bay you know, but 96 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: like it's really hard to learn. I think that's the 97 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: way it would have been for Picket because Mark Whipple 98 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: was there his senior year. But I don't think Whipple 99 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: was there his junior year in college. I think it 100 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: was changed, so you'd be looking at changing offenses consistently 101 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: for Pickett real quick. Whipple was a free agent. From 102 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: what I understand right now, I don't think he has 103 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: a job. Yeah, he was in Nebraska, and could you 104 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: see him like coming on as a offensive assistant like 105 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: they hired Flores or something like that. Um, there's a 106 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: familiarity there, and you got a lot out of kind. 107 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: I mean he coached here before, you know, that was 108 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: under Bill Kawer, but he was quarterbacks coach for Ben Roethlis. 109 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: But the organization is familiar with him, and the quarterbacks 110 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: familiar with them. You know. Um, the uh Adam Scheft 111 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: reporting the Panthers are interviewing Ken Dorsey for their head 112 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: coaching vacancy. Okay, I mean he hasn't been a coordinator 113 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: one year, right, that's he was a quarterbacks coach before. 114 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: That would be a pretty quick ascension. And I think 115 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 1: we're learning some of these quick moves like that. They 116 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: don't always work out. No, No, I think you need 117 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: to establish yourself a little bit more. Um do you 118 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 1: put any stock in this? I mean, they bring this 119 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: up to you. There's what there's eight teams left in 120 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: the that are alive. Seven of them are offensive head 121 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: coaches and Buffalo. Do you think there's anything to that? 122 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: Because I was asked about it and I said, well, 123 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: most years Belichick, Tomlin, Harbaugh, Carol or in the equation 124 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:37,039 Speaker 1: and they're not barely you know, right, So there are 125 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: there are some very defensive minded coaches who are who 126 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: have been very successful, and I think it's more flukey 127 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: that out of the small sample size of eight, seven 128 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: of them happen to be offensivemount they also have the quarterbacks. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 129 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 1: that helps. And to their credit, Dave all helped develop 130 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: Allen and you know, I mean like you know, and 131 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: make Jones a better player and you know. Um, but 132 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 1: I don't know that if I was an owner from 133 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 1: Carolina or one of these teams, boy, I better hire 134 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: an offensive guru. I'm not then. Yeah, and I don't 135 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: necessarily love the Buffalo offense. I'm not sure Allan got 136 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: better this year or the offense got better this year. Yeah, 137 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. I don't know that their offense 138 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: was that looks really good. I think it was better 139 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: last year. Yeah, I would agree with that. Um, And 140 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: you have Josh Allen. Yeah, that's a nice garden. You're 141 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 1: in a good defense. Yeah. Juwan Jennings a limited participant 142 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: Wednesday for the forty Niners. Isaiah mackenzie was a full 143 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: participant Wednesday. I wonder if he's past or mean that 144 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: looks good, um Vikings, GM Queasi Adopho Mensa said, the 145 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: expectation is that Kirk Cousins will return to the team 146 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: for the season. I get that. I mean he's under contract. 147 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: They won a lot of games. He's not going anything. 148 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: They cut him, not cutting him, They're not trading him 149 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: last So I might use a second round pick on 150 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: one getting Yeah, I might. You make a Ridder Corral 151 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: type move, you know. Uh. Jonah Williams did not practice 152 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: for the Cincinnati Bengals on Wednesday, nor did Alex Kappa. 153 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: I don't think capital I didn't think Capita any chance 154 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: to play. Williams has a dislocated knee. Cap he had 155 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: that earlier in the year, and he popped it back 156 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: into place himself. I know that's not as bad as 157 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: it sounds. This one. He couldn't pop back into place 158 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: by himself. What's what happens when you have that injury 159 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: the first time and it pops out. It destabilizes the 160 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: area likely to do it again. Now you're more likely 161 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: to It's like a sprained ankle, You're more likely to 162 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: roll it again. While this is a knee well, I 163 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: think he's maybe the most overrated left tackle in the league. 164 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: But Jackson Carman's a guard and he's the backup, so 165 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: he is not a left tackle. No, And the whole 166 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 1: right side the line, you know, by the way, Lao 167 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: Collins is done for the year. Yeah, I thought Kappa 168 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: was too, but Cappa was probably the best lineman. Collins 169 00:08:53,760 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: probably second. That game might be less scoring than people think. Yeah, 170 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,599 Speaker 1: I mean that the Bills have more offensive issues and 171 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: people realize this old line thing might be the end 172 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: of the Bengal season. Yeah. I mean, if you watched 173 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 1: that game against Baltimore, it was a bunch of six 174 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: yards they could Burrow. Burrow looked like Tom Brady out there, 175 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: just didn't get the ball and get rid of it. 176 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 1: Get the ball and get rid of it. Was like 177 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 1: two point four second. It almost takes Chase out of 178 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: the game, right, and he's still had a big game 179 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:21,959 Speaker 1: to their credit, and I thought it was one of 180 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: Burrow's best game. But it's all run after the catch 181 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: for Chase and it was all I can't believe. You 182 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: guys can't block anybody. And they still managed to win. 183 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: And Buffalo's defensive line is they'll come at you in waves. 184 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, But if the Bills play like they did 185 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:39,119 Speaker 1: on offense against Miami. They're not beating Kansas City or Cincinnati. 186 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: So like, I think stocks down a little bit on 187 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: both those teams. To me, when the Kansas City gets 188 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 1: to sit back and be like, what, you guys create 189 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 1: more work through. So mccoole, Hardman with the pelvis injury 190 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: still not practicing, that's I guess it matters. I don't 191 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: know what receivers matter there and what that's hard, but 192 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: I mean it been another weapon that they would have 193 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: that you know, the speed. So again, Justin Watson, can 194 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: Darius Tony can continue to be that number three guy? 195 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: A quick question for it? Yeah, Bengals Bills. If we 196 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: were on Bengals Nation Radio, you think would be complaining 197 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: a little bit that that game should be on a a 198 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: neutral site to playing the game. They didn't play the game. 199 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: I mean, like, I don't care what the score was 200 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: when when the score was in the game happened either, 201 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 1: It's like, we didn't get our opportunity to beat you. Well, 202 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: here's the thing. The only team that has a beef 203 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: in the whole issue, in my opinion, it was somebody 204 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: somebody nearly died. So I don't want to hear that 205 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 1: argument and by the way, you had an opportunity to 206 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,839 Speaker 1: finish with a better record than the Bills, regardless of 207 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 1: whether you played them or not, and you didn't do that. Yeah, 208 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 1: I think if you don't lose to the Steelers in 209 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: Week one, you might be hosting. You had the You 210 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: had sixteen opportunities to be better than the Bills, and 211 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: you didn't do it. So equal amount of games, right, 212 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: It's not like it's not like Buffalo played seventeen games 213 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: and they played sixteen. They both played sixteen. Buffalo finished 214 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,679 Speaker 1: with the better better record, So I don't want to 215 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,199 Speaker 1: hear that argument at all. Yeah, I think they have 216 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: a little bit of an argument of this should be 217 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 1: on a neutral site. They didn't play the game if 218 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: they if they was a sixteen game schedule, Buffalo would 219 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: be the higher seeded team because they had the better record. 220 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: If they finished with the same record, then they would 221 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: have a beef if they lost. If they if it 222 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,199 Speaker 1: came down to like the fourth tiebreaker, then I get 223 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: and you don't get the head yea change it. But 224 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 1: otherwise they both played sixteen games and you had a 225 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: lesser record than all right, I'm cool with that. Uh. 226 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:44,199 Speaker 1: Darryl Bevil, the Dolphins offensive coordinator or pass game coordinator 227 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: quarterback coach, informed the Jets and Commanders he's declining to 228 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: interview for their offensive coordinator jobs, so he's the pass 229 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: game quarters. Another one of these teams pass game coordinator, 230 00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: run game coordinator. Ridiculous. Last year they had to two ocs, 231 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: which is weird. There's a lot of talk that they 232 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: can move on from the d C who is the 233 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: floor as guy, But I don't see any offensive changes. No, 234 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 1: I would not have Mike McDaniel calling plays next year. 235 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: I know that I heard this today, which is bonkers 236 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 1: to me that I guess McDaniel. Don't quote me, but 237 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: I've read this or saw it that he would like 238 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: three out of four games he would call the plays 239 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: and then he handed it to this dude for one 240 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: just so that they would like give the league a 241 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 1: curveball so they wouldn't have as many tendencies. He called 242 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 1: the plays against Buffalo. I think he's a dope. I 243 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: think that's overthinking. I think he's a dope. I think 244 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 1: he's I think these guys think they're smarter than what 245 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: they are. I think Staley should be a defensive coordinator 246 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: and I think McDaniel should be an offensive cordinator. And yeah, 247 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: and get plays in on time, and get plays in 248 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: on time, Brett Meyer, I guess he's safe. He's safe. 249 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: He missed four extra points in her Ron. He made 250 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: fifty and fifty three in a regular season. He had 251 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: a really good year. I'm sure I've ever saying like that. 252 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, if he makes one of them, 253 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: I pushed on my over underbet. But if he makes two, 254 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 1: m a lot happier. If the Cowboys just after the 255 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: first three mrs decided to go for two, right, I mean, 256 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 1: it was kind of comical and it didn't hurt them 257 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: at all, but it was strange stuff, right, that was 258 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 1: strange stuff. But I think I would trust him too. 259 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: I mean, if Boswell did that, you wouldn't give up. 260 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 1: All right, He's not one of those bottom five kickers 261 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: that has no track record, right, I mean, yeah, he's 262 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: not Matthew right, coming in exact point. I mean, he 263 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: had a good year, and yeah, but wow, what's going 264 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: on in his head? How about this one? The Jets 265 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: are interviewing former Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett for the 266 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator vacancy. Now, Hackett is one of those guys. 267 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:46,680 Speaker 1: And this is the problem that I have with some 268 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: of these guys around it, Like, did then get hired 269 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: as head coaches? He had never called an offense before 270 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: last year? He was quarterback, he was the offensive Green Bay. Yeah, 271 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: he was Roger's quarterback coach after MCA you left. So 272 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: now you're gonna, based off of what he did last 273 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: year in Denver, You're gonna now make him your offensive coordinator, right, 274 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,319 Speaker 1: Like you think he's a former head coach, he's overqualified 275 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: for O C. I don't think he may not even 276 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: be a no C. He may be a position coach 277 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: and someone made a terrible hire as a head coach. 278 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: Doesn't mean the only reason that hires a head coach 279 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: they thought they can g Aaron Rodgers out of deal 280 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: and none of that worked out obviously, you know, So 281 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean he's a good offensive coordinator, right. Uh. 282 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: Former Broncos head coach Vic Fangio is being interviewed in 283 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 1: Atlanta for their DC job. You know he's a good 284 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: he's I mean a lot of rumors that him and 285 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: Peyton are gonna go together. So I've heard this kind 286 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: of stuff, which is sort of interesting is I think 287 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: it's it's not Denver, but it's one of the red 288 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: one of the places Peyton is rumored to be interested in. 289 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: Might hire Fangio before they trade for Peyton to make 290 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: it more attractive for Peyton, you know, to kind of 291 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: woo him. But Fangio, if he wants to be a a 292 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: d C, could be DC anywhere. Yeah, anywhere. Uh. The 293 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: Patriots are interviewing Vikings wide receivers coach Keena McCardell for 294 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: their offensive coordinator vacancy. They've also interviewed Bill O'Brian as well. 295 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 1: As long as they hired a real o C, that's 296 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: an upgrade. It's gonna be O'Brien. I mean this, if 297 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: you know, mccardelli's nice for him to get the interview 298 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: there process is like an up and coming coach. But 299 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: this is a this is definitely a complying with the 300 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: Rooney role thing. I would imagine, I would imagine. But again, 301 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: if you're if you're macartell, people wonder why would you 302 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: go through these interviews. If if you know it's just 303 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: to comply with the Rooney role, it's very worth it 304 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: because down the road you may you know interviewing is 305 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: a skill? Yeah, take these things off. And what's Bill 306 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: Belichick going to ask me? All of a sudden, Now 307 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: people are looking at Keena McCart ongling. Oh wait a second, Well, 308 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: I didn't play on us discussing Keena McCardell on Steel 309 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: Nation Radio today and how we are And now more 310 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 1: people are like he's good. Didn't know he was right? 311 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 1: Remember when he played for the Jags. There, Ken Zampez 312 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: is in. He's the commanders, uh quarterbacks coach. He is 313 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: talking to the team about the offensive coordinator vacancy. Okay, 314 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: I assume he's Ernie's son. Yes, So if he was 315 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: Ken Williamson, would you get that interview? Would he have 316 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: the job? Maybe? I don't know, yeah, but sure helps 317 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: a lot of that in the league. The Chargers fired 318 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: linebackers coach Michael will Hit. Yeah. My take on the 319 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: Chargers was Staley somebody had and so the o C 320 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: took the hatchet and now they're probably saying, you gotta 321 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: make some other change. The Cardinals interviewed former Colt Sad 322 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: coach Frank Reich for their head coach vagency. I think 323 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: coach Flores has been linked to there too a little bit. 324 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 1: Who knows what's going on with that, but they did 325 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: sign they have a new GM. Now, yeah, they took 326 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 1: the Titans GM. Titans sired GM today from the Niners. 327 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: Who has uh Maurice Carthon's son, Ran Carthon, So some 328 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: of those pieces are starting to follow him. Ran Kartham 329 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 1: interviewed for the Steelers GM job last year.

I don't know how to 333 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 1: pronounce his name, but the last name is varro Um. Yeah, 334 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: I'm not quite sure how to pronounce his first name. 335 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 1: I think it's a hero. Him and the former head coach, 336 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 1: and we just talked about we're best man at each 337 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: other's wedding. Yeah, this guy was a hit though for 338 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 1: the Bronco taking over for Fanjio Ben Johnson. The you 339 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: go from hero to Ben Johnson. Yeah, uh, he is 340 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 1: decided to remain with the team. I mean, he's had 341 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: one really impressive year. People are talking like, oh, we 342 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: should hire him as an oct or as a head 343 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: coach coach, Like, that's not the same skill set. Don't 344 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,639 Speaker 1: you want to see me in another year? Like noy 345 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,640 Speaker 1: ever heard of Ben Johnson other than the track star 346 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: this season? I mean by week ten was like, I 347 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: forget his name, but it's some common name for the Lions. 348 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 1: He's doing a great job, you know. Yeah, it doesn't 349 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: mean he should be the head coach next year. Um 350 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 1: Brandon Schurf for the Jaguars did not practice, Okay, so 351 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: that's interesting. He's actually stayed pretty healthy this year. Yeah, 352 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 1: and he's been a hit for them. Absolutely. A lot 353 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: of people talking about the Jags free agent class surf 354 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 1: Ingram Zyney. It's been a lot of money, but they're 355 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: They've got quality players and a lot of money on 356 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: offense around that young quarterback. A lot of bad move Yeah, 357 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 1: Dan Quinn in our final one here, the Cults have 358 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 1: requested permission to interview Dan Quinn for their head coach vacancy. 359 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: He's of course been a head coach before. Yeah. I 360 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 1: guess some of these coaches a lot of credit because 361 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: he came from the Carol Cover three, very generic, run 362 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: the same defense over and over, and he's kind of 363 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 1: reinvented himself and there's a lot more stuff out there. 364 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: Took I think he took a year off, you know, 365 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: took a step back and said I can do more 366 00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: than that, and it seems to be revented himself, which 367 00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: is yeah, I mean that's kind of what you what 368 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 1: you have to do. I mean, um, your pigeonholed into 369 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 1: these schemes that start to get outdated, you're gonna get 370 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 1: passed by. Yeah, we just do what I do. And 371 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: then you here's the problem that you run into as 372 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: an NFL coach. You go down, Okay, you make plans 373 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: during a season. Okay, this is what we're gonna do. 374 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: Once the season starts, that's what you're going to do. 375 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 1: You're not reinventing the wheel in the middle of the season, 376 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 1: so then you can't make massive changes until after the season. Well, 377 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: when you're a successful coach like that, you're not gonna 378 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 1: why tweak or it's a massive not success and you 379 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 1: get fired and you can't make the changes you were 380 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 1: right too. You know, there's a lot of flaws with 381 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: all of this. It's it's very difficult. The other thing 382 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 1: that makes me crazy too, I always think this week 383 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: or two after the season is the weirdest time of 384 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: the year in the NFL because half the teams are 385 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: trying to win and win the Super Bowl. The other 386 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 1: half of firing people or worried about the Senior Bowl 387 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 1: or don't get a new offensive coordinator or linebacker coach 388 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: or whatever. And meanwhile, like the Miko Ryan's in with 389 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: the Niners right now has four head coaching interviews. Well, 390 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: he needs to create a game plan to stop that, 391 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 1: you know, I mean like kind of a big deal. 392 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,959 Speaker 1: I mean, now they zoom these things. It's not like 393 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: it was pre COVID where you're flying around, but but 394 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: it's still an hour hour and a half that you're 395 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: taking out of your schedule at least. I mean, if 396 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: you're prepare for a head coaching job, you can't just 397 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 1: be like, I'll call you back in ten minutes. You know, 398 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: I'm working on, you know, our new Blitz package. Speaking 399 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: of the Senior Bowl, UH Steelers defensive backs coach Grady 400 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,719 Speaker 1: Brown is a defensive coordinator for the North team, as 401 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 1: well as Denzel Martin will Be, who is their assistant 402 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 1: outside linebackers coach Hill coach outside linebackers for the North. 403 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: Massive advantage for the national squad and ships. If you 404 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: can have a coach on the ground, on the ground 405 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 1: in the meeting rooms, getting to know their personalities. So 406 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: this guy learned quickly. Everyone can see what happens on 407 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: the field, including practice. I like this better this year 408 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: because they used to us bringing okay last year for example, 409 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 1: when I was there, the Jets and the Jets and 410 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: Alliance always terrible team. Right, we're both they're coaching those teams. Well, jeez, 411 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: who had two of the best better drafts this year. Yeah, 412 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: they got to see those guys firsthand on the field. 413 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: This is in the classroom doing that. So now everybody 414 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: gets an opportunity. All a bunch of different teams are 415 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 1: are represented here and they let they let a young 416 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: up and coming coach, usually up in a minority Brown. 417 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 1: This is some opportunity, awesome opportunity. And then you report 418 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: back to the front office. I really liked that guy. 419 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 1: That guy can't learn to save his life for you know, 420 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: I don't like being around him. But boy, this other 421 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,199 Speaker 1: dude no one's talking about. He could play for us. 422 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,239 Speaker 1: Not only that, and you don't do a ton of 423 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: game planning or things of that nature. No, you're not 424 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,719 Speaker 1: even right, but it gives it gives these coaches an 425 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: opportunity to again Grady Brown a defensive backs coach, Now 426 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,719 Speaker 1: he's get an opportunity to be a coordinating exactly right, 427 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: all right, Right, he's at called plays, he's gonna line 428 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: everybody up, and this is our first team, that's our 429 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,679 Speaker 1: second team. Right, he's doing head coach a big deal stuff, 430 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: you're a coordinator stuff. Yeah, So no, I think that's 431 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 1: really important and a big thing he'll learn too, is like, boy, 432 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 1: everybody struggled on Tuesday. It was a mess. These three 433 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 1: guys that got better on Wednesday, then they got better 434 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,199 Speaker 1: on Thursday than there's right, and they're asking the right 435 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 1: questions on Friday, hearing up to the game, like he'll 436 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 1: be finding camp you know, goes to Tomlin. Hey, you 437 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,400 Speaker 1: know this guy will catch on and quicken our camp. Yeah. 438 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 1: It's different than just sitting in the stands or you know, 439 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: even standing on the sideline and watching these guys practice 440 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: here or interviewing them and they're asking real sta answers 441 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: and you know, you know, you know that they've they've 442 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,880 Speaker 1: been coached up to do those things. Yeah, and they 443 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 1: also see which is huge you're sitting there. You know, 444 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: years linebacker coach is gonna be there. Well, who's the 445 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 1: leader in this linebacker room of a dozen dudes or 446 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: eight dudes or just they've all been alpha's they just met. 447 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: Who's the who's the top dog here that everyone's listening 448 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: to and following? You know, that's important, absolutely. I mean, 449 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 1: that's that's one of the reasons why they drafted Marquise 450 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 1: Pouncy because he was he was that guy at Florida 451 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 1: And who's the guy that's as I'm not playing special teams, 452 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: I'll run down here in jog, but I'm a star. 453 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: I'm not doing anybody that does that in the Senior Bowls. 454 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:12,359 Speaker 1: But but some you know, come with different enthusiasm with that.
