Speaker 2: a little I'm like, damn, Fred, like this is how
Speaker 2: y'all lived the.
Speaker 4: Capital city in Jackson prom for this from the country, Like.
Speaker 2: They blew my mind because you know, I grew up
Speaker 2: in Miami, so I never heard none of that.
Speaker 3: I hear the stories. I was like wow, wow.
Speaker 2: He was like, he's like, it's some Jackson. It's must
Speaker 2: I go.
Speaker 1: And that's how Jackson is.
Speaker 3: No, Jay Jackson ain't like that people right, you know what,
Speaker 3: it's the New York. He's been here. And then people like, yeah,
Speaker 3: where you from in time? I say Mississippi.
Speaker 4: Everybody faces smoothed that like some stank like we ain't gotten.
Speaker 1: Nothing off after that story.
Speaker 3: My face, like, this is America is everywhere. It ain't
Speaker 3: just there. Just let's be But it seems.
Speaker 1: Good people and absolutely.
Speaker 2: Unant saying it's something bad or cruel people. We were
Speaker 2: just saying just the crazy that those times are still
Speaker 2: existing at that time.
Speaker 4: When I say Mississippi, the people they some stink like
Speaker 4: somebody thought it or something like, no, man, it ain't
Speaker 4: like that. You say California, people like yell by Golly,
Speaker 4: I want to go to California.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 1: I mean it's so that started to change a little
Speaker 1: bit now too. But that's a conversation for a different show.
Speaker 1: But in the meantime, so we got a who bunch
Speaker 1: of people around the building. Today is the first day
Speaker 1: of O T A. S. We're gonna talk about that
Speaker 1: in a second. But there was a man here, Fred
Speaker 1: who recognized you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he was a scout from the Cincinnati Bengals when
Speaker 4: me and Tanner came out in.
Speaker 1: The draft and so Fred, you know, we've had a
Speaker 1: lot of contentious conversations Tanne.
Speaker 2: That was a flowing wall out there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was, dude, It was so funny. So Fred's like, dude,
Speaker 1: the scout that was at my prodas out there, he
Speaker 1: remembers that I ran a four to three and I
Speaker 1: was like, I don't know, man, he's like an older guy.
Speaker 1: He's been one thousand.
Speaker 3: He looked like he's about eight, be honest, but.
Speaker 1: He's been one thousand pro days. Like, no way, he
Speaker 1: remembers yours. I know. He's like, he remember my bench
Speaker 1: press story, which is a great story, by the way.
Speaker 1: And so we walk out there. Fred introduces me. The
Speaker 1: guy doesn't know who I am, and he says, oh,
Speaker 1: Fred's so great. I love Fred. Everybody says that because
Speaker 1: Fred's awesome. And then then I say, sir, do you
Speaker 1: remember what what he ran at this protein? Do you
Speaker 1: remember the forty?
Speaker 3: Just start glowing because Fred.
Speaker 1: Is a big advocate Tanna as you know that he
Speaker 1: ran a fast time like you did. And so we
Speaker 1: did some research. We asked multiple scouting departments around the NFL.
Speaker 1: They said a four four seven, right? Was that the
Speaker 1: time he was wrong?
Speaker 5: Okay for four four eight This is what it says online,
Speaker 5: but but we it has been contry. Yeah, and again
Speaker 5: that four four seven spot at the pro DA.
Speaker 1: You know the stop watch. Everyone's got a different stop
Speaker 1: watch for some people probably had him a four four.
Speaker 5: Two, but it's in that general area.
Speaker 1: And so the guy goes, you know what, I I
Speaker 1: don't really remember, but I think I think it was
Speaker 1: a four five almost.
Speaker 3: You gott you probably fe know.
Speaker 4: He he pulled a piccolo out of his pocket, like
Speaker 4: he just erupted right there.
Speaker 3: I like, no, it wasn't a four five.
Speaker 1: It's good, sir, sir, it was a four four. He's like,
Speaker 1: I'll give you a four four. I don't really remember,
Speaker 1: but I just was time.
Speaker 4: But I was shock he remembered the run Zock story
Speaker 4: was when he told it, like you like.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you remember the name. Yeah, maybe
Speaker 1: his memory is better than we thought. Maybe it was
Speaker 1: a four five.
Speaker 3: No, he's rying.
Speaker 4: He was like, yeah, comes look toe for it. That
Speaker 4: one bis prison might hurt you. It wins zook Toe
Speaker 4: now like, hey, you eater, gonna play with me again.
Speaker 1: That's where I was, dude, the courage that must have
Speaker 1: took it taken to say that. I mean, you're you
Speaker 1: just say all crazy stuff. But like I would have
Speaker 1: been like, oh gosh, I should try it again.
Speaker 2: That's him. I know that guy was uncut and if.
Speaker 4: You don't believe in yourself, y'all can't expect from no
Speaker 4: other coach to believe in.
Speaker 1: I mean, you have plenty of belief. You have like
Speaker 1: you radiate beliefs.
Speaker 3: That's what you got to do in this world that
Speaker 3: we only hit for a speck.
Speaker 1: I know. Be confident in yourself.
Speaker 3: Start beat fire.
Speaker 1: Think you can beat me in basketball?
Speaker 4: Think you oh, I can beat you in basketball. Now
Speaker 4: I'm in better shape. Look at me, abbed up, bro,
Speaker 4: you just told my name is Ebraham Lincoln. You couldn't
Speaker 4: play with me right now. I've been riding bikes.
Speaker 2: This is I've been training like Rocky.
Speaker 1: So we're good friends, you know. So Fred and I
Speaker 1: were walking out of get lunch together and he's got
Speaker 1: a little limp to him. I said, And I said, Fred,
Speaker 1: will happen to you? He said, All I slept weird.
Speaker 4: I woke up this morning, got out the bed out fail.
Speaker 4: I like, man, you know what you know?
Speaker 3: You all you don't have to do nothing.
Speaker 1: Even though you're abbed up. Man, you know, I don't know.
Speaker 3: Man, you know what forty five is? Forty five? This
Speaker 3: is what open and you.
Speaker 1: Look great though. I'll tell you that I'll tell you that.
Speaker 3: That's the nicest thing you need to say it.
Speaker 1: You know, I got to be nice to every once
Speaker 1: in a while because the fans will just come from
Speaker 1: my head. Yeah all right, so let's talk about stuff
Speaker 1: that people really care about. So we've did a what
Speaker 1: do they call that a live stream, Jason, a live
Speaker 1: stream of practice, but a live stream of Rookie Mini camp.
Speaker 1: Practice was not included in seven seven on seven, but
Speaker 1: we get to stay out there and watch. And so
Speaker 1: basically I want to review Rookie Mini Camp and then
Speaker 1: also our first day Vota practice, which we got to
Speaker 1: be out there for and review. So let's start with
Speaker 1: the Rookie Mini Camp. And I think the first thing
Speaker 1: that everyone's been talking about is the energy, and I
Speaker 1: want to get your guys thoughts on it because like
Speaker 1: when we were we were on air, you can see
Speaker 1: this live. Go go go back and watch the thing.
Speaker 1: Their reactions to it, I'm talking Fred and Santana, they
Speaker 1: were like when they did this energy drill, this bag drill,
Speaker 1: this compete drill, you guys. I was like, I was shit,
Speaker 1: But Fred looked like, you want to go practice?
Speaker 3: No, I've wanted to.
Speaker 4: I was like It put belief in me you can
Speaker 4: still do this, Like that's how much fire. You gotta realize.
Speaker 4: This universe is created with energy. The Sun radiates energy,
Speaker 4: like we all tracked to energy. And what I felt
Speaker 4: out there was a no, a super noble energy.
Speaker 3: Your daddy, he stoked. I did that for.
Speaker 4: Mister Paulson because I'm come to tell you why the passing,
Speaker 4: Because he let me know that Logan is the dumbest pause.
Speaker 4: So I really loved that. Everybody in his family is
Speaker 4: like like scientists and everything that Logan just stands up.
Speaker 3: Hey, I played for the little table man. You gotta
Speaker 3: do like I can. I can see your daddy standing
Speaker 3: up at the family and.
Speaker 4: You're like, yeah, I love all my kids. Some shame
Speaker 4: of this athlete told a job, it's a job.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so tell her what you think.
Speaker 2: I loved it. I was shocked because I just wasn't
Speaker 2: expecting it.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: But when you look back at you know some of
Speaker 2: the things that's glaring about, you know, Dan and his defenses,
Speaker 2: just it proved that point, like this is the kind
Speaker 2: of energy that he brings into you know, those groups
Speaker 2: and now he's the head coach and that's what he
Speaker 2: wanted to see from everybody. So, you know, the last
Speaker 2: time I saw that was when I went I remember
Speaker 2: when RG three got here. We went to Baylor and
Speaker 2: worked out with him, and I remember how they opened
Speaker 2: up the shed and everybody ran in there, and I
Speaker 2: was like, you know, removed from from from college football
Speaker 2: for how long now, I was probably like twelve years removed.
Speaker 2: I'm like, man, I wasn't ready for this, and I
Speaker 2: see that, and then you got to think about it.
Speaker 2: This game has gotten younger. You know, it's not a
Speaker 2: lot of not a lot of old heads here no more.
Speaker 2: So they getting those same guys that was you know,
Speaker 2: I guess you could say that some of the at
Speaker 2: the top of that game in college. There now the
Speaker 2: guys that you you know, depending on to be the
Speaker 2: top of the game here in the league. And they're
Speaker 2: giving them some of the same stuff that they pretty
Speaker 2: much brought them up in. Like we didn't do that
Speaker 2: at University of Miami, but I saw a lot of
Speaker 2: other college you know, college So it's great to see it.
Speaker 2: And I'm like, I said, if that going to kind
Speaker 2: of bring that kind of intensity every every week the
Speaker 2: start of the practice, I can just imagine how they're
Speaker 2: going to play.
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, I think sometimes it's it's helpful because
Speaker 1: we did a similar drill when I was in Atlanta,
Speaker 1: and then there's been other places like in college and stuff.
Speaker 1: For you do it. It kind of gets you, gets
Speaker 1: you like lythed ready.
Speaker 4: Especially when guys don't feel like you know, like it's
Speaker 4: easy for the first day, but when we forty days in,
Speaker 4: everybody don't feel like practicing.
Speaker 3: I'm glad I was one of them people. I love practice.
Speaker 4: I come out there yelling and hollering I ain't I
Speaker 4: ain't even stretched while everybody was scritching. I used to
Speaker 4: go around and talk to players like no I did,
Speaker 4: like I listen.
Speaker 3: All I know when I'm watching Animal.
Speaker 4: Planet, that cheatah, don't scratch when it that cheat of
Speaker 4: see see a rabbit, Go get rabbit.
Speaker 3: All I'm saying. And that's where I was.
Speaker 4: So I was in so I was. I mean, I
Speaker 4: could say that. That's why I have no regrets. I
Speaker 4: enjoyed every day playing in this game, and practice was
Speaker 4: just important to me as a game I call practice
Speaker 4: a game with no crowd. Other than that, I had
Speaker 4: the same amount of fun.
Speaker 3: I brought the same amount of energy and Greg, you
Speaker 3: just don't that practice is.
Speaker 1: Off like yeah, yeah, I know it's a tradition, like
Speaker 1: there's I know this might seem novel, but there are
Speaker 1: a lot of coaches that I've played with like that's
Speaker 1: the thing they do. Yeah, you gotta get your going.
Speaker 2: Something that's I was gonna add to it. Just you
Speaker 2: have guys that kind of go get you know, picked
Speaker 2: up as the practice go on, Like you know, they
Speaker 2: come out there a little like I'm trying to get
Speaker 2: myself warmed up. Now if I'm already to the understanding
Speaker 2: of like this is what we got to do. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get out there a little earlier. You know,
Speaker 2: I was one of those guys I went to practice
Speaker 2: before practice starting. I'm gonna get when you saw the defense,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get my hurdles in. I'm gonna do all
Speaker 2: my stretches and stuff. So when they say they blow
Speaker 2: that wissu, I'm ready to go. So now you see
Speaker 2: that being displayed. You know those guys who come out
Speaker 2: there and say they allow practice to get them going,
Speaker 2: they're gonna come out there with with that mentality like hey,
Speaker 2: I gotta get going before practice start because they're gonna
Speaker 2: expect me to run through these bags like this. You
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, So let's talk I mean, obviously let's talk about
Speaker 1: the rookie practice first. Anybody that anybody or anything that
Speaker 1: stuck out to you kind of besides the energy, like,
Speaker 1: let's talk players here mostly.
Speaker 2: Say McGee, you talk about them just looking at the dude.
Speaker 2: I mean, ain't I ain't talking about no no, no
Speaker 2: place the dude body getting off the bus, no diddy,
Speaker 2: but his body, Bro alone, like he just put together
Speaker 2: in a certain way, and it's just not even that, Bro.
Speaker 2: You know, we haven't we talked so much about these
Speaker 2: linebackers coming into this him and haven't mentioned him. And
Speaker 2: he's one of the guys that's going to be behind
Speaker 2: one of the guys. Yeah, Bobby yellowjacket, right, you call him?
Speaker 2: So just imagine, Bro, I mean, like that's to me,
Speaker 2: that's a major plus just seeing those guys how quickly
Speaker 2: we transformed that cord. That group of men has now
Speaker 2: been the thing that we talked about the most. We've
Speaker 2: been talking the last four or five years, that when
Speaker 2: we're gonna get some linebackers in here, and not to
Speaker 2: say that Jamie hasn't been doing his thing for at
Speaker 2: least three of those years, because we I think he's
Speaker 2: about what this is third year, so this is fourth year,
Speaker 2: so at least three of those years. But just to
Speaker 2: see the added guys and then you have a guy,
Speaker 2: a young guy like that that's just man you put
Speaker 2: together and then now you see today you're running all
Speaker 2: over the field. I'm just excited man to see what
Speaker 2: he gonna bring.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he moves well. Man was really well.
Speaker 4: I think Ben Snat does it me Like I knew
Speaker 4: he was a size guy. I knew he was I
Speaker 4: could play multiple positions guy. But to see him run,
Speaker 4: like sometimes watching you run in college is different than
Speaker 4: what you run on the field with other pros.
Speaker 3: So watching him run on.
Speaker 4: The field today really made me feel good, like I
Speaker 4: already felt good to bat him. It made me feel
Speaker 4: better about him, especially seeing him right next to Ertz
Speaker 4: is the agent guy that shot me today that he's
Speaker 4: still running like he running.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he ran great routes today. So seeing him beside.
Speaker 4: Him and seeing him, you know, when I'm looking at
Speaker 4: being is not I'm knowing, I'm looking at the rough
Speaker 4: draft and I know I'm looking at the finished product
Speaker 4: of zach Ertz, but knowing where this guy finished start at.
Speaker 4: I think he could be that level of guy, you know,
Speaker 4: with a lot of detail.
Speaker 1: No, absolutely, And it got for me is Dominice Hampton
Speaker 1: kind of that Yeah, because again, like he just fits
Speaker 1: this kind of big body, big body, long arms run. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and again like that kind of dime linebacker spot that
Speaker 1: they use all the time in Dallas, Like it just
Speaker 1: feels like he's ready made for that.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I think that's someone to keep an eye. But
Speaker 1: I think the guy that kind of stood out to
Speaker 1: me or was maybe the most impressive was James jen.
Speaker 2: I didn't even want to mention him because that's the obvious, but.
Speaker 1: He's He's the guy that really stuck out and just
Speaker 1: what stuck out about him and you know, anything like
Speaker 1: your first impression.
Speaker 2: Man, Look, I'm a guy receiver. I'm watching quarterbacks. I'm
Speaker 2: watching everything that it is, from the wine up to
Speaker 2: the feetwork, you know, to his footwork, to you know,
Speaker 2: how he deciphered things, you know, how quick And the
Speaker 2: thing that stood out the most is just the effortless
Speaker 2: yeah ball like snapping it, just snapping out his hand.
Speaker 2: It's just snapping and like you don't see a wind up,
Speaker 2: you better see it. The ball is coming at you,
Speaker 2: you know. And I watched a couple of those first
Speaker 2: three four plays when he had he I think he
Speaker 2: threw to McCaffrey three out of those four times. Yes,
Speaker 2: and it was dying. I mean, I mean, don't get
Speaker 2: me wrong. It wasn't like they was going that far.
Speaker 2: But it was just on the money. It was right
Speaker 2: here and that where I want to see the ball
Speaker 2: that I want it right here. I don't want it
Speaker 2: too hot, on too far behind me. And McCaffrey's strong
Speaker 2: hands just snatching it. I mean that that's something you know,
Speaker 2: that's it's early. So of course he's probably not you know, tired,
Speaker 2: arm is fresh, you know what I mean. But it's
Speaker 2: so much to be on you, and it's it's not
Speaker 2: like things out there going fast for me and not
Speaker 2: like I said, that's it's early. As Mini camp, he
Speaker 2: seemed like a guy that's reserved. He seemed like a
Speaker 2: guy that I mean from Washington, too high Washington. Watching
Speaker 2: his interviews, he says the right things. He's not letting
Speaker 2: you trap him. I saw trying to trap him a
Speaker 2: couple of times seven people.
Speaker 4: That tried to trap him already, you can't really answer
Speaker 4: it that story and something you know, like if I
Speaker 4: asked you a question like you know what, Logan, I
Speaker 4: know you and Cooley? Which teammates did you like?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 4: Like now that's a trapped question, like yeah, I like him.
Speaker 4: But if I say anything else, start a grace fi
Speaker 4: Like so he's been trapped like that a couple of times.
Speaker 4: I think, what really does it for me? With him
Speaker 4: control of these many huddles that had I like to
Speaker 4: see a presence in that. And the first day we
Speaker 4: saw the Rookers practice, I saw him correcting receivers the
Speaker 4: first Like that's telling me he already knows most of
Speaker 4: the playbook. Like that's telling me he took it upon himself. Man, Yeah,
Speaker 4: it took it to pun himself to say, you know what,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna get so fired to this pray book that
Speaker 4: I can help the people that came in with me.
Speaker 2: You know, I had a son and this is something
Speaker 2: I live by, you know, And it's not something that
Speaker 2: you say you are, It's just something that you know
Speaker 2: over time. I know him because people have told me.
Speaker 2: But at the same time, I understand it enough. But
Speaker 2: I had a saying that I always said, the humble man
Speaker 2: come out on top. And when I say humble, like
Speaker 2: when you have a guy that's a star, he's a star. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean you can from how he plays the game
Speaker 2: and all the recognition he's getting. But every time you
Speaker 2: interview or heard an interview from the guys that he
Speaker 2: played with, they talked about how personal he was to them,
Speaker 2: how they love being around him. Already you heard, you know,
Speaker 2: not you know or send it saying that, hey, man,
Speaker 2: I just love being around I just love hearing stuff
Speaker 2: that he's talking about. So he's a humble young man.
Speaker 2: He knows that at the end of the day. Yet
Speaker 2: I got here because of some of these guys right here.
Speaker 2: These guys are gonna be using to get me even higher,
Speaker 2: you know, when it comes to this profession. So I
Speaker 2: can already see the humble guy in them, and that's
Speaker 2: why he's where he's at. But that's what gets other
Speaker 2: guys to follow behind you. And you the quarterback, you're
Speaker 2: the head and unless you want us to if you
Speaker 2: want us to move the way you want us to move,
Speaker 2: that's the way to do it. You get up them
Speaker 2: close and you let us know you know who you are.
Speaker 2: And I've seen that already just watching them for a
Speaker 2: couple of days.
Speaker 4: And I also think at the end of the day
Speaker 4: when I go back to it, the trestaway jersey thing.
Speaker 4: When he got on the podium after we had announced,
Speaker 4: of course that he getting the number five, he said, Man,
Speaker 4: I'm just thinking Tress for letting me borrow the jersey.
Speaker 4: He didn't feel like it was old to them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he didn't.
Speaker 4: Feel like, hey, I'm the number one, I'm the number two.
Speaker 4: Pick I she may have any number. No, he was like, man,
Speaker 4: I appreciate him, this dude to the probe in this jersey.
Speaker 1: He did it.
Speaker 4: I think you for letting me borrow. He didn't say,
Speaker 4: he like.
Speaker 1: It's acknowledging tresses like legacy, and that's exactly right. Yeah, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I think to your point, like the footwork was, I
Speaker 1: was super impressed with the footwork, like that was something
Speaker 1: they just jumped out immediately. And the thing about the
Speaker 1: footwork that's so important is that lets you get to
Speaker 1: everything else. And yes, so if I'm you know, working
Speaker 1: my five step drop, I can accelerate deceller at my
Speaker 1: feet I can take a quick hitch, get to the
Speaker 1: check down. All that stuff was there, the ball placement,
Speaker 1: the mastery of the play. I mean it was crazy
Speaker 1: watching that that. You know, that first rookie day of practice,
Speaker 1: there wasn't one ball on the ground, Like guys were
Speaker 1: on the same page. They knew what they were doing.
Speaker 1: And for rookies to come in and execute that way
Speaker 1: like usually when you watch the rookie MUNI can't see
Speaker 1: it looks like a garbage fire. It does just because
Speaker 1: they don't know what they're doing.
Speaker 3: They don't know each other.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's exactly right, and so for it to be
Speaker 1: that smooth, I thought it was really impressive. But you know,
Speaker 1: like Tanny you mentioned this, like Luke McCaffrey has been
Speaker 1: going out to l A, I think to train with Jayden,
Speaker 1: you know, like they're throwing it together like they're they're
Speaker 1: practicing together already, so they're learning each other. And I think, again,
Speaker 1: that's that's great leadership and great initiative by our guy
Speaker 1: Luke McCaffrey. So another thing that took out to me
Speaker 1: is when you're watching individuals like I cannot get over
Speaker 1: our guy Cliff Kingsbury man like he is.
Speaker 3: All over the place.
Speaker 1: He is juice.
Speaker 4: And I think it's because I didn't heard coaches say this.
Speaker 4: When they start to become a head coach and they
Speaker 4: have to like take care of all the kids, they
Speaker 4: lose a joy that they had of coaching. And you
Speaker 4: could tell he he is really enjoyed not happen to
Speaker 4: be the sheriff. He's happy to say, I'm Finn Mold
Speaker 4: this quarterback and this offense to my wheel. And I
Speaker 4: think he's enjoying. I just get to get up every
Speaker 4: day and coach. I don't have to be a politician.
Speaker 4: I don't have to go to this function. I don't
Speaker 4: have to go to dysfunction. I don't have to do
Speaker 4: any of this. I could just coach football.
Speaker 2: I mean, I love the energy. I love just seeing
Speaker 2: him out there. You know, it already seemed like they
Speaker 2: had and they kind of understand each And then if
Speaker 2: you think about it, man, even even with being the
Speaker 2: guy that he was in Arizona, you know, basically fathering
Speaker 2: all those guys, you know what I mean, being the
Speaker 2: head man. Think about coler success his first year, you know,
Speaker 2: Rookie of the year type of success. So you can
Speaker 2: only just hope that we can get that same kind
Speaker 2: of production out of I got knowing that now he
Speaker 2: has Kingsbury in his office every day all day, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean, he can pick his brains, he
Speaker 2: can stay come in early, stay late, just make sure
Speaker 2: that he give him everything he got so he can
Speaker 2: go out there and be very productive.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's you know, today was the Rota one.
Speaker 1: I thought was also interesting to kind of see how
Speaker 1: much offense they have in Yeah, they had a lot
Speaker 1: of stuff in.
Speaker 2: It early too. Man, I ain't never remember doing Ota
Speaker 2: this early minute.
Speaker 1: They getting Nextrarot because of the head coach.
Speaker 3: You can't coach.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they're a little head, a little head of schedule.
Speaker 1: But you know there's a ton of hand signals, a
Speaker 1: ton of like kind of muddle huddles, like they can
Speaker 1: move fast. They did some two minutes today. Like what
Speaker 1: was your impression Today's I mean it was just sharp
Speaker 1: and fast on the.
Speaker 4: Way by the by the double selling mont set, I
Speaker 4: was really talking about that real quick.
Speaker 3: All right.
Speaker 4: Well, usually when we do sell them on seven, let's
Speaker 4: just say it's a it's a thirty five play for
Speaker 4: they play selling on seven. The starter is gonna get
Speaker 4: so many plays the second team gonna get played, and
Speaker 4: the wrist of it is diving it up with whoever
Speaker 4: else on the roster. And that's the way that usually
Speaker 4: a guy that's trying to make the roster on to
Speaker 4: get what two or three plays and the most when
Speaker 4: you separated and you got the first team and second
Speaker 4: team over here, in the first team and second team
Speaker 4: over there, now it's like twenty twenty five rep for everybody.
Speaker 4: Now as a coach, I get to really watch players
Speaker 4: and get to really judge who can make this roster.
Speaker 4: Not so I think it's a great thing that they
Speaker 4: split the sealm on sell them up, because now everybody
Speaker 4: get repped out, rep out, the rep out, the rep
Speaker 4: out the rep and it's helping them decipher who's gonna
Speaker 4: make this team.
Speaker 1: And uh, Fred, did you make anything in ten or two?
Speaker 1: Did you make anything of how they had kind of
Speaker 1: the who was in the first defensive group, who was
Speaker 1: in the first offensive group? Did I?
Speaker 3: Did?
Speaker 1: I did?
Speaker 3: I think that's just the starting point. By far, this
Speaker 3: ain't gonna be the head.
Speaker 1: Just see up some context, Like Michael Davis was kind of.
Speaker 4: Chisel vet been here, done that, played in a similar
Speaker 4: defense as that doesn't shock me, sat But also Michael
Speaker 4: Davis moving Saint Juice to the right corner. I thought
Speaker 4: they kind of told me some because Saint Jus is
Speaker 4: primarily a left then also coming in on the second
Speaker 4: group as a manual. But he's behind Michael Davis at
Speaker 4: the left corner, right, So that's telling me, all right,
Speaker 4: they got some going over there.
Speaker 3: We're going to make you earn this. We could easily
Speaker 3: give it to you, but.
Speaker 4: We're gonna make you earn this thought all right, everybody think, hey,
Speaker 4: they drafted Mike Sinat, I mean might Santa Steel to
Speaker 4: beat the nickel. He didn't play right a rep with
Speaker 4: the first team. He was over there with the younger guy,
Speaker 4: so I think they telling him, also with Kelly Blue
Speaker 4: and the rest of the guy, you're gonna have to
Speaker 4: earn this position.
Speaker 3: We want to give it to you, but you're gonna
Speaker 3: have to earn it.
Speaker 4: So I love it because right now all coaches around
Speaker 4: the league is playing Jedi mind tricks with at least
Speaker 4: ten players on their team.
Speaker 2: And then you got to get a feel for you know,
Speaker 2: you know where you want guys to line up, you know,
Speaker 2: and j I think because when I watched the wide receivers,
Speaker 2: I saw Diami out there, you know, with the they
Speaker 2: had three receivers in the game. They had Terry outside,
Speaker 2: the Yamy outside, and they had you know, Dotson inside,
Speaker 2: and we was talking about, you know, McCaffrey being in
Speaker 2: the line right behind Terry. So we was like, hey,
Speaker 2: we was thinking the whole time he would be he'll
Speaker 2: be for show a slot guy and had crowd, you know,
Speaker 2: Jameson going to you know, he was in the slot
Speaker 2: full time. So it's just one of those things. Get
Speaker 2: in the field, you know what I mean. These are
Speaker 2: the guys that pretty much are veterans. We're going to
Speaker 2: run the reps that we have because I'm pretty sure
Speaker 2: they're going to be able to go out there full
Speaker 2: speed and then while we're watching, you know, you never know,
Speaker 2: things might change. But all those guys, when you have
Speaker 2: that opportunity, like I'm speaking for offensive guys as a receiver,
Speaker 2: if I'm Terry, because I was Terry for a long
Speaker 2: time here, you're not worried about where they put you
Speaker 2: at because you can know you can, you can, you
Speaker 2: can make something happen. But those other guys be mindful
Speaker 2: that Hey, you here, But if you feel like you
Speaker 2: can contribute to the other positions, if it's not too
Speaker 2: much for you know, what's going on, Because if somebody
Speaker 2: down or somebody's not wanting to get in there because
Speaker 2: they a little winded, I would jump right in and
Speaker 2: show that I have that, you know capacity.
Speaker 4: Did you feel like watching the first team safeties with
Speaker 4: Jeremy Chen in there.
Speaker 3: And and Kwan no default.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's still getting healthy.
Speaker 3: Then he was out that practice.
Speaker 2: I know he's back, but I'm just saying that, you know.
Speaker 1: I just think it shows, you know, like one of
Speaker 1: the things they talked to when they came in is
Speaker 1: just how impressed they were with Kwan. And I think
Speaker 1: you see that, and Kwan's moving well, and I think
Speaker 1: Jeremy Chin like his experiences background and again this is
Speaker 1: so early. Yeah, but you know, like Jordan McGee's working
Speaker 1: in with with the with Warner and Louvu, he's a
Speaker 1: he had run.
Speaker 4: Man.
Speaker 2: I'm not even just keep saying it, but man, dude,
Speaker 2: put together. I'm talking about you, straight up action figure.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And when you look at his numbers, it's like
Speaker 1: he's he's sixty three. There's like two thirties.
Speaker 4: Thirty, like, but he wearing that damn. I know that
Speaker 4: he's like at nineteen's ninety wrestling. I know he he's
Speaker 4: like the ultimate war.
Speaker 2: Where I looked at his arms and I'm like, do
Speaker 2: you have do you have some kind of wristbands making
Speaker 2: his own? That's just him, five of them.
Speaker 1: But he can run a little bit. He's got good
Speaker 1: coverage instincts like that's gonna be really exciting. But yeah, again,
Speaker 1: like the that that kind of seeing that first rotation,
Speaker 1: I think shows you kind of some stuff that they're
Speaker 1: as the staff got to be working through through ot as.
Speaker 1: The offense thing was interesting. A guy that I think
Speaker 1: stood out to me, you know, I think he's going
Speaker 1: to stay out for the rest of camp. I'm sure
Speaker 1: is Luke McCaffrey. Like he is excellent.
Speaker 2: He went routes man, he went and got I told
Speaker 2: you his dad's son. Man, come on, Like, I mean,
Speaker 2: I didn't expect nothing other then you know, I mean
Speaker 2: ed mcat a quarterback that's playing receive a nine time
Speaker 2: out of the team. They know the book, they know
Speaker 2: how to get to the route, they know where they
Speaker 2: want to be at when the ball is you know,
Speaker 2: I mean, you got to think about a quarterback, so
Speaker 2: he know, lifer the football line, doing his thing for
Speaker 2: so long, been in locker room all his life.
Speaker 1: And then I think that, but those players were great.
Speaker 1: You kind of post stretch up over the top of.
Speaker 2: That, and it was a really nice to go get.
Speaker 1: It was to say, it's really nice play because the
Speaker 1: ball was slightly overthrown and he kind of he does
Speaker 1: this thing which I love. Really good receivers can do.
Speaker 1: It is they dig, they stay relaxed, and they can
Speaker 1: kind of find that extra gear track and adjust the ball.
Speaker 1: And he did a great job of that. But the
Speaker 1: most impressive play for me today was something that informed
Speaker 1: his character. So Oz caught the ball, you know, Kis
Speaker 1: caught the BA underneath. He was on the far side
Speaker 1: of the field and literally you would have thought this
Speaker 1: guy was running forty yard dash, sprinted all the way
Speaker 1: across the formation, made him and ripped across the safety's
Speaker 1: face to get the touchdown block. Yeah, and I just
Speaker 1: thought there's a guy, you said, Fred, I was like, man,
Speaker 1: that guy is every second he's on the field is
Speaker 1: full pedals of the guests.
Speaker 3: Once you hit the grays, we are running.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And walk.
Speaker 2: That showed you the character they trying to bring into
Speaker 2: this room, you know, and bring it to this team.
Speaker 2: They want guys that's gonna hustle. They want guys because
Speaker 2: you're thinking about it. And when you watch those San
Speaker 2: Fran players out there, they weren't just catching the ball
Speaker 2: and getting yards. They was getting yacked because of the
Speaker 2: contributions of the other guys out there blocking down field
Speaker 2: for him. So you know, that's amazing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it was also great to see Zach out there.
Speaker 1: Zach Hurts made a couple of nice catches, made a
Speaker 1: nice catch in two minutes and then.
Speaker 4: And anybody that think he was a broke down truck
Speaker 4: when we signed him, No, he looks healthy.
Speaker 1: He looks healthy and he's got that and it's it's
Speaker 1: hard to explain because you know, Zach, I don't think
Speaker 1: he ran a fast forty eight at the comment. It
Speaker 1: was like a four to seven eight something like that.
Speaker 1: He understands leverages, he understands angles, he understands how to
Speaker 1: double stick to break leverages, and he just does a
Speaker 1: really nice job of consistently doing He.
Speaker 4: Uses your leg leverage against you once he identifies what
Speaker 4: covered you in he knows the dead spot. And if
Speaker 4: he understand that you and man, he gonna put you
Speaker 4: in the trail position. He can put you in a
Speaker 4: trail position and slow up and miss you up. Like
Speaker 4: the great tight Ends don't need to run for four forties.
Speaker 4: They don't They need to know how to maneuver, and
Speaker 4: they don't need to have to manipulate coverages to what.
Speaker 1: They're going to do.
Speaker 2: Just find a sweet spot, tight ends all for all
Speaker 2: of us I play football. Man, he's just been great
Speaker 2: at find a sweet spots. Cooley could have run and
Speaker 2: save his life. But Cooley was always over to you
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, Always tell you.
Speaker 4: Who gave me us head every year? He couldn't outrun
Speaker 4: a grandma in the mall. Jason Will Jason Winn stayed open.
Speaker 4: I don't think I ever seen him coming.
Speaker 3: I guess what.
Speaker 4: Jason Wind cannot run all right, So that what made
Speaker 4: him that when he got into the end of his career,
Speaker 4: you didn't know if he was slowing down or not
Speaker 4: because he was never fana No.
Speaker 1: I think that's and he just the guy that understood
Speaker 1: the kind of same stuff good good and out of
Speaker 1: his breaks, leverage his angle stems. Awesome job. And then
Speaker 1: our guy Emmanuel Forbes had a couple of nice pvus
Speaker 1: today with the second group and saw some man.
Speaker 2: I saw that that pick by who got to pick
Speaker 2: fifty seven? Whitman. Yeah, Pittman caught a nice ball. He
Speaker 2: had a nice one. They was flying around. Man, it's
Speaker 2: great to the city's guts. I mean the energy you
Speaker 2: can outdate out the gate. That's different. Yeah, you know
Speaker 2: you can see that.
Speaker 3: Ones out the twos running on and off the field.
Speaker 3: You can tell the difference.
Speaker 1: And I just love like you talked about We talked
Speaker 1: about Cliff, but like Joe Whitt like he's in there,
Speaker 1: he's standing right behind the office and he's like he's
Speaker 1: like almost like speaking in tongues. He's like, hey, keep
Speaker 1: that leverage, you know, keep that leverage. We just think, hey,
Speaker 1: what is it? Two by two? Three by one?
Speaker 3: Help we both to hit that ball? Yeah, we both
Speaker 3: got that.
Speaker 1: He is juiced up, man, He's he's got a standard
Speaker 1: that he's trying to abide by as well. And you
Speaker 1: know McGee had this tackle on the fight. He's like,
Speaker 1: leverage tackle, leverage tackle inside it. But he's like there
Speaker 1: we go, you know, what I mean, He's.
Speaker 3: Got him walking out the hood. Oh no, back in
Speaker 3: a little back like, yeah, I love that smile thing.
Speaker 1: Great deal. And then you know, Jane Daniels obviously got
Speaker 1: to talk about him. He was in the other group
Speaker 1: of seven on seven, like kind of farther away from
Speaker 1: where we were, but you see some of like what
Speaker 1: makes him special. And what I mean by that is
Speaker 1: like he loves throwing that deep ball. He threw one
Speaker 1: to h Rice and Tremaine who had a really solid day,
Speaker 1: had a good day at the Rookie Minnie camp. Guy
Speaker 1: that I think is keep an eye on him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's He's the guy that showed up a little bit.
Speaker 1: He's six four and a half, he's two fifteen, two twenty.
Speaker 1: He's big.
Speaker 2: He's hard to miss too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know eight nine baby, So throw a deep
Speaker 1: ball to him. Threw a deep ball to him, threw
Speaker 1: a couple of digs in the middle field, and then
Speaker 1: threw through two deep balls to Dax Mill and then
Speaker 1: Dax Mill made a great catch on the sideline there
Speaker 1: and then had a couple of nights. Again, the timing
Speaker 1: of him, I've been really impressed with that. I'm talking
Speaker 1: about Jaden. This his ability to be on time with stuff.
Speaker 4: Just comfortability, like he could easily came in here over
Speaker 4: anxies and overthrew a couple of bars.
Speaker 3: It's no, no, no, I'm ready.
Speaker 1: And he's gonna he's and he's gonna have a rough
Speaker 1: day at some point.
Speaker 4: Yeah, first of all, I want to see the rough day,
Speaker 4: and because I want to see the next day, Like
Speaker 4: I don't care about your people.
Speaker 3: The worst thing can happen to It's about responding.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 4: If if he comes here and it's easy, Like if
Speaker 4: it seems easy, then.
Speaker 3: You're not getting better and you ain't been humble.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, So, Yeah, we're gonna keep watching these practices,
Speaker 1: gonna keep kind of keeping you guys updated. Right now,
Speaker 1: we're really excited. Just wanted to give you kind of
Speaker 1: some background on some stuff we noticed today, some rep
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. And again that's gonna change, but you know,
Speaker 1: it's it's an exciting opportunity. And again we didn't talk
Speaker 1: about any of the offensive linemen defensive lineman. Really yeah,
Speaker 1: because they don't. It's it's a passing game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they was in a way room.
Speaker 1: I'll watched it, so they do they do their Indy
Speaker 1: and then right when they get to seven on seven.
Speaker 4: Teven, they come up and they still at the Powerhouse.
Speaker 1: Yeah, which which I think is important.
Speaker 3: You know, special food got that did bench press two
Speaker 3: one time.
Speaker 1: One time.
Speaker 3: That's how you need to open a do one time.
Speaker 1: All right. So the next big event we got coming
Speaker 1: up is the schedule release, and that is we're having
Speaker 1: a show. I think we're going to preview that at
Speaker 1: some point this week. Jason, what day is that?
Speaker 5: Tomorrow?
Speaker 1: Tomorrow? We're doing that, Okay, so make sure you tune
Speaker 1: into that. We're really excited about that. But in the meantime,
Speaker 1: we're going to preview that, and we're excited to preview it.
Speaker 1: And so the first question on my sheet here is
Speaker 1: is there a game on this schedule that needs to
Speaker 1: be the first home game. So I'm going to read
Speaker 1: some off to you real quick. We got Philly home,
Speaker 1: Dallas home, New York Giants home, Chicago Bears home, Cleveland
Speaker 1: Brown's home, Pittsburgh Steelers home, the Atlanta Falcons. That's an
Speaker 1: interesting one. Tennessee Titans and the Carolina.
Speaker 2: One versus two?
Speaker 1: Is that what you want?
Speaker 2: Jada and Kayleb come back to d c is where
Speaker 2: you're from, and what the Chicago treat last year on
Speaker 2: Thursday night football we on, Yeah, that would be that
Speaker 2: would be the That would be the the game to
Speaker 2: start this thing off, right.
Speaker 3: I want to against the Wolf of Wall Street aka
Speaker 3: Kirk Cuts.
Speaker 4: I mean in Atlanta, they come in here and you
Speaker 4: notice my ex wife team too, so you know it's
Speaker 4: tension right there.
Speaker 3: When we went through a divorce.
Speaker 4: On the way out, she was like, by the way,
Speaker 4: I've been a Falcon fan the whole time. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 4: so at the end of the day, that's a double reversion, dude,
Speaker 4: from like I said, you got the Wolf of Wall
Speaker 4: Street Kirk Cousins coming back to the team that paid
Speaker 4: them first, and now this team that just paid them
Speaker 4: when it got him a step brother.
Speaker 3: This it right behind.
Speaker 4: So it's a little tension boiling right there. So I
Speaker 4: just want to welcome Kirk back to FedEx Field.
Speaker 2: This is commanding field now it won't be FedEx.
Speaker 3: Excuse me, to the command in the command field.
Speaker 1: Commander's field, whatever we're calling it. I totally agree. Pardon me.
Speaker 1: Wants to see the Caleb Jalen thing like our Jaden thing.
Speaker 1: Later in the season. We both and they're like rolling.
Speaker 2: A little gate give it to him right now again.
Speaker 1: I like to see it. Obviously, I'm gonna watch that game. God,
Speaker 1: I just I want to see like where they're at,
Speaker 1: like week eight, week nine.
Speaker 3: And already took some bromps and bruises the Falcons.
Speaker 1: One. I think is really interesting getting Kirk back in
Speaker 1: the hometown, see how the fans receive him. And then
Speaker 1: I don't know, Pittsburgh seems interesting to me because of
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks.
Speaker 4: Say we hate Pittsburgh, and I would will to see
Speaker 4: Pittsburgh early because this when that's when the politician Russell
Speaker 4: Wilson will.
Speaker 3: Be starting, because I think after like week six, it's
Speaker 3: gonna be the gist.
Speaker 2: And Fields so called him man politician, Man, have you met.
Speaker 1: I heard him?
Speaker 3: If he is the most definitely.
Speaker 4: Like that wasn't some good dude that't trust nothing.
Speaker 3: He's saying, I knew what you heard?
Speaker 1: Did you knew you were getting that?
Speaker 2: I wanted to hear what you really had to say.
Speaker 3: No, but I really want to see this.
Speaker 2: Duoy said you said water to well?
Speaker 3: He talking talking ZRay striped. If you sit there, listen
Speaker 3: to me.
Speaker 4: This dude one of the He's a good dude inside,
Speaker 4: but you know how you mean a preacher and you'd.
Speaker 3: Be like, hey, this preacher, right, I can tell a
Speaker 3: little bit. I'm dancing here like a brook Let. They
Speaker 3: rolled him all the way out to Pittsburgh.
Speaker 4: You know, the room got quiet when he said that
Speaker 4: the first time and.
Speaker 3: Crickets, let's ride where we never heard that before.
Speaker 2: But you know what, the thing, the thing that bothers
Speaker 2: me about that, just knowing like how much that meant
Speaker 2: to him. He wanted that slogan to stick and to
Speaker 2: mean something and like not no, not only stick, but
Speaker 2: have something stick the right way. Make her have a
Speaker 2: nice season, you know what I mean, And you can
Speaker 2: be like Bronco ride. It just went the wrong way
Speaker 2: for him. So that's why I knew what you were
Speaker 2: trying to hear it.
Speaker 3: I wanted to know it's Bronco has horseshoes. You're gonna
Speaker 3: give it, bro listen, SI Justin Fields will be the start.
Speaker 2: But you know, I don't think so, I don't really
Speaker 2: think so. I mean, I'm gonna be real with your man.
Speaker 2: I love the the things I seen from Justine. You know,
Speaker 2: when you know when he about what he did. You
Speaker 2: can see that. You can see when you kind of
Speaker 2: just allow him to, you know, do what he do.
Speaker 2: But I just think I really would like to see
Speaker 2: I'm just saying me personally, I want to see your boy.
Speaker 3: Russell have a saving set.
Speaker 2: I want to see him saving. I mean, I like
Speaker 2: Russell and you can talk about the politician and them
Speaker 2: and everything. I think he's a great player. I think
Speaker 2: he's a guy that get behind the coach, that got
Speaker 2: over there, and now he run things. You'll see a
Speaker 2: rush that kind of we saw over there in Seattle.
Speaker 3: See.
Speaker 2: I think it's about the coaching style.
Speaker 4: I played for Mike Tumlin in Minnesota. He was our
Speaker 4: defensive coordinator. We had a top three defense that year
Speaker 4: he got that job. The one thing I know about
Speaker 4: Mike Tumley, whatever comes out of his mouth, that's how
Speaker 4: he really feels.
Speaker 3: He's authentic.
Speaker 4: He will bench you as a player, and like he say,
Speaker 4: we don't do starters for the year. We do starters
Speaker 4: for games, meaning you can't start the whole year if
Speaker 4: you on your a game.
Speaker 3: But I'm telling.
Speaker 4: You, I don't think Russell does well under the type
Speaker 4: of circumstances where things are not guaranteed, But.
Speaker 2: No, I think I think just with the with the
Speaker 2: leadership from that coach, it's going to give him the stability.
Speaker 3: This coach actually won't know.
Speaker 1: Him too. They're gonna play defense, gonna run. Arthur Smith, likest.
Speaker 4: Aught the like things to be done on schedule, and
Speaker 4: Russell is an off schedule.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: One of the things that I think really interesting is
Speaker 1: if you were to have a quarterback run system that
Speaker 1: coincided with the run game that they had like in Atlanta,
Speaker 1: Because we're alwaysking about what if Justin Fields goes to
Speaker 1: Arthur Smith.
Speaker 3: We thought it was gonna be the truth and party.
Speaker 1: Is like, that would be pretty sick having a guy that.
Speaker 3: Can Now you have a gold line package.
Speaker 1: All right, So next question, which game needs to be
Speaker 1: in prime time? So obviously I just read the home matchups.
Speaker 1: The away matchups are Baltimore Bengals, UH, Tampa Bay, UH
Speaker 1: New Orleans and Arizona.
Speaker 2: But well, I'm sure we're gonna I'm sure one of
Speaker 2: those those NFC East games gonna be big prim tags.
Speaker 2: I can see us Philly gonna be in a PRAM.
Speaker 1: Obviously, Like I think, so, okay, I should have made
Speaker 1: that clear we're not obviously.
Speaker 3: Don't worry about the invit Yeah, like.
Speaker 1: In the in the in the division, because those are
Speaker 1: always big games.
Speaker 2: So the next prime time game, I can see Baltimore,
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: Battle party, that'd be That'd be kind of sick though,
Speaker 1: to see like both.
Speaker 2: Of these guys.
Speaker 4: Yeah, guess what he Jayden was compared to this deal
Speaker 4: to see them on the same field but in different offenses.
Speaker 3: I think that's the whole thing being used a little
Speaker 3: bit different. I say the better of the bet.
Speaker 2: With Burrow too. I mean, you could easily be a prime.
Speaker 4: Time I'm saying beat out of the bed way because
Speaker 4: now it's actually a battle.
Speaker 3: Like they had the quarterback advantage a long time I
Speaker 3: was young.
Speaker 1: The team is that seems so good though.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and they got they got King Henry over there
Speaker 4: right now, So they got lighting and thun.
Speaker 1: They got a three hundred and twenty pounds full back
Speaker 1: and a two hundred and fifty pound running back. Somebody
Speaker 1: get hurt, and so think about this, their right tackle
Speaker 1: and their right guard. The right tackle weighs three hundred
Speaker 1: and ninety pounds, the right guard weighs three seventy five.
Speaker 1: Like they just have it's just like a that's like.
Speaker 4: You gotta be the biggest screwp buffet that never goes away.
Speaker 2: That's a lot of trying to play over there.
Speaker 3: They trying to play.
Speaker 4: They want to put your line and put your hand
Speaker 4: in and let's see the best man win because recard man.
Speaker 3: People Don'tdertandy want to trade. Patrick coming riding at full
Speaker 3: back and three hundred.
Speaker 4: Path and he pops down, no no, and he can
Speaker 4: track DB's he get his hands on you.
Speaker 3: It's over.
Speaker 1: Yeah. It reminds me a little bit of like Mike
Speaker 1: Sellers with Mike Sellers.
Speaker 4: Mos definitely in I want to say this to people.
Speaker 4: I talked to Big Mike Seller's facetied him me and
Speaker 4: Rock cott Wright two nights ago. The big boy is
Speaker 4: doing well. He says he's feeling good.
Speaker 3: He was up, he's joking, he's walking around.
Speaker 4: Thank Lord, say one hour, Commanders, Mike Sellers is doing well.
Speaker 3: Definitely, that's awesome.
Speaker 1: All right. Yeah, so I think Baltimore is kind of
Speaker 1: one than six outs mentioned Pittsburgh already. The Falcons game
Speaker 1: in prime time would be awesome, you know the wolf, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that would be pretty sick. And then I want to
Speaker 1: see the Caleb Williams, Jason I Wrigg back.
Speaker 3: But I want to say afraid a little bit of
Speaker 3: the Cowboys.
Speaker 4: I mean that the Chicago team, because I think a
Speaker 4: rookie quarterback has ever walked.
Speaker 3: Into a team ready built like this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and.
Speaker 4: They leave there with Roma dooms dig and they already
Speaker 4: got DJ Moore, Like this is getting out different than
Speaker 4: any rookie.
Speaker 3: I think.
Speaker 4: Now the Scribe had a good team, but we didn't
Speaker 4: know tank deal with was gonna be good.
Speaker 1: But we didn't know it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So again, all those would be fun to see
Speaker 1: in prime time. And then what's a sneaky good matchup
Speaker 1: that you guys like it? Man, sneaky good.
Speaker 4: I think sneaky good is the Cincinnati Bengals. I think
Speaker 4: the Cincinnati Bengals. Everybody forget them every time Joe get hurt.
Speaker 4: Every time Joe hurt, they're not but Joe gon heal
Speaker 4: and Joe has here and Joe won't respect Joe.
Speaker 1: Did you see that thing? Again? This is on Instagram?
Speaker 1: So I don't know how realists having't fact just this,
Speaker 1: but that the injury that he had might like long term,
Speaker 1: affect his ability to grip a football. You got to
Speaker 1: see that.
Speaker 3: I did not see.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I saw. I don't know, I got it,
Speaker 1: don't don't. I'm not reporting it is that is just
Speaker 1: throwing go get it. I think a sneak.
Speaker 2: A good matchup is Cleveland Browns too. I don't forget
Speaker 2: about those.
Speaker 1: I mean I just saw.
Speaker 2: I just saw running the other day, and I mean
Speaker 2: he might not be ready to.
Speaker 3: Take long to get back. And I'm sorry. The Shun
Speaker 3: watches just don't look like the Shun watching no more.
Speaker 4: And I think it has a lot to do with
Speaker 4: it's hard for him to focus being like the villain,
Speaker 4: like some people excel being the villain.
Speaker 2: But I've seen his reception in different in different places,
Speaker 2: he'd been received well different places.
Speaker 4: I mean, don't play because I think some players kind
Speaker 4: of like play through the energy that they feel.
Speaker 1: And to me, he.
Speaker 3: Ain't happy when I used to watch him play.
Speaker 2: I just think it's longer. It takes longer than what
Speaker 2: we expect him to come out there and just to
Speaker 2: be himself again, Like it takes more than a year,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Like, don't get me wrong,
Speaker 2: He's been sitting out for what two years. Did he
Speaker 2: play last year then he end up getting hurt. I
Speaker 2: thought last year should have been a year where he
Speaker 2: just you know, find a way to get on the field,
Speaker 2: stay healthy and be out there the whole sixteen eight
Speaker 2: I mean seventeen weeks and then this year we would
Speaker 2: have saw something different. So hopefully, yeah, you know, even
Speaker 2: though you know him having another setback being hurt last year,
Speaker 2: I hope he can kind of like be a little
Speaker 2: bit of himself. But they playing that so I don't
Speaker 2: want to see I don't want to see him being
Speaker 2: nowhere near.
Speaker 1: So that's that's kind of our preview to the schedule
Speaker 1: release which comes out tomorrow. We're really excited to kind
Speaker 1: of talk about that in more detail. That's just kind
Speaker 1: of our first high level thoughts. But that leads us
Speaker 1: to our newest segment, and that's what we call that,
Speaker 1: the mail bag, the mailman segment.
Speaker 3: The mail will be delivered.
Speaker 1: And so we got a couple We got an email
Speaker 1: from Andre right, Jason, Yeah, this is from Andre.
Speaker 5: I'll be Andre for you and wrote along email email,
Speaker 5: I should know I have our time round. Yeah, he
Speaker 5: sent us an email tougher than you that hawk outside
Speaker 5: Gmail dot com right, all right, So here's what he said, guys.
Speaker 5: He said, all right, first, thank you for creating content
Speaker 5: that is easily accessible to those who are out of
Speaker 5: town and need to stay connected. I'm in the Army
Speaker 5: in active duty, so I don't get to come.
Speaker 1: Home very thank you for your service. Thanks you.
Speaker 5: In fact, I'm heading to Korea this summer, the fourth
Speaker 5: time in nine years. You can't get much further than
Speaker 5: seven thousand miles away from home, so to get a
Speaker 5: little slice of the district from you all every week
Speaker 5: is precious. If I could only get some chicken wings
Speaker 5: mambo sauce on.
Speaker 4: Game they out, well, tell him I will gladly send
Speaker 4: him mumbo sauce. I can't send the chicken sure, the
Speaker 4: Korean wing is good. We can send you the mumbo sauce.
Speaker 4: So you have that, Andre, I can do that. I
Speaker 4: got something in my house, just got a no case
Speaker 4: of it. My kids love mumbo sauce. They put it
Speaker 4: on everything.
Speaker 1: I've never had mumbo sauce spicy.
Speaker 3: Don't you ever repeat that again?
Speaker 1: Is it spicy?
Speaker 3: No, it's sweet meat, spicy meat, savory. Think about ketchup.
Speaker 1: It's eaten by zeus.
Speaker 2: It's almost like if you ever had you have you
Speaker 2: ever had the Taie Asian sauce.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like that.
Speaker 2: It's similar.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, really has a sweet sauce.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna bring you some mumbo sauce.
Speaker 5: Yes, I hope you get crushed in the comments you are.
Speaker 1: I don't eat a lot of junk food.
Speaker 4: Well, first of all, you probably eat his mumbo or
Speaker 4: some like its cargo, or some snails or something that's
Speaker 4: not that's like that's drowned butter.
Speaker 1: There's no way fancy I do U. Yeah, I put
Speaker 1: it on my little mash that I make. If I
Speaker 1: told you want to eat for dinner pretty much every.
Speaker 3: Night, I know you eat like a pison. You probably porch.
Speaker 1: It's a white rice, ground beef, a pounder ground beef,
Speaker 1: sauteed spinach and maple syrup on there.
Speaker 3: Perch.
Speaker 1: Por it's pretty good though.
Speaker 4: They was eating a sixteen o three in wiscons what't
Speaker 4: he talking about this?
Speaker 3: Dude? He looked at me like, yeah, ain't a great Meala, No, you.
Speaker 1: Should try something. I bet you have. You go with
Speaker 1: some mumbo sauce.
Speaker 3: Town to be a DC proud while you gulash.
Speaker 1: Well here's a question. Here's a question.
Speaker 5: Andre wants to know. This is the topic here because
Speaker 5: he's away, he doesn't know what we got one right,
Speaker 5: You want to know is there any buzz or fear
Speaker 5: from other teams in our division when it comes to
Speaker 5: the prospect of facing a dual threat QB here in Washington.
Speaker 5: I don't think the n if NFC East has had
Speaker 5: this problem since RG three and twenty twelve. What are
Speaker 5: news outlets Saints.
Speaker 1: So at this time of year? Because he so preliminary,
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of conversation.
Speaker 3: They only worry about their team.
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of their team, a lot of local media.
Speaker 1: And again, like we're very fortunate we have access to
Speaker 1: watch practice. We just reviewed that for you, Andre, And
Speaker 1: one of the things is we can't see other people's practices,
Speaker 1: so they don't know. So all we're getting a secondhand.
Speaker 1: But we did find some quotes from some different news organizations.
Speaker 4: I could also say this, Dre, we know this before
Speaker 4: down gets played.
Speaker 3: This year, we got at least the third best quarterback.
Speaker 1: In the division.
Speaker 4: All right, let's be honest, all right, we know that
Speaker 4: when that guy played a snap, all right, we know
Speaker 4: we don't want Daniel Jones.
Speaker 3: We know that legit, be honest, Ray.
Speaker 2: It's the beauty of Dane Jones.
Speaker 1: Be good.
Speaker 4: He's always good against us, let's get that correct. But
Speaker 4: he shows us who Daniel Jones.
Speaker 2: Years ago, that same Dany Jones took him to the
Speaker 2: playoff and won a game.
Speaker 3: And he threw for like thirty one hundred. He did nothing.
Speaker 3: He was good enough to be.
Speaker 1: He fools it to you.
Speaker 3: He swindle deal.
Speaker 4: You know how players can have it one year tween
Speaker 4: got the country.
Speaker 3: I pray, I don't.
Speaker 1: Really contract you a house, never.
Speaker 3: Comin.
Speaker 4: I just seen do change everything, get that check and
Speaker 4: then never see he.
Speaker 1: I was also going to say that playoff win was
Speaker 1: more of a Dexter Lawrence thing is then you have
Speaker 1: like twelve pressures that game like he basically basically like.
Speaker 3: Listen, you can't get no more regular lited.
Speaker 1: And not a good quarterback to move on. Okay, So
Speaker 1: so Jason, we got uh so, we got some comments
Speaker 1: from who we got from.
Speaker 5: I did a little bit of research to try and
Speaker 5: find something.
Speaker 1: But basically there's the point is there's not a lot.
Speaker 3: It's not a lot. Nobody's willing to hate this early
Speaker 3: but me yeah, there's nothing.
Speaker 5: From team accounts, kind of like what we do. But
Speaker 5: there was this dude, Victor Williams won the Philly Pod.
Speaker 5: I assume that's a lesser pod than this one, but
Speaker 5: he tweeted out, uh, don't get too comfy, Jaden Daniels,
Speaker 5: and it was the clip of Jalen Carter from the
Speaker 5: Georgia LSU game in twenty twenty two. Yeah comes up
Speaker 5: and uh and so he's he's talking some trash out there,
Speaker 5: but Jane and Daniels had a quote about that. His
Speaker 5: quote was, Hey, Jalen Carter, he's a great player. I
Speaker 5: mean he got underneath me. I had a bum ankle,
Speaker 5: so I wasn't gonna do anything here. Yeah, but you
Speaker 5: know he's a great player.
Speaker 2: So yeah, but it's football. You take one. Take one
Speaker 2: play that this guy has my number is like kind
Speaker 2: of not really everybody get Scott one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Victor Williams, Like you got all damn football, Victor.
Speaker 4: We know something about you, probably caring Chris go in
Speaker 4: your pocketing case y'all win a championship so you could
Speaker 4: slide down a pole. We ain't worried about all that.
Speaker 4: We ain't here to start, no drum. What we're gonna
Speaker 4: do is we're gonna worry about washing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's all getting like. That's not a really super
Speaker 1: informed take by Victor Williams. You know, he's looking at
Speaker 1: a clip and he's saying, look at this one time,
Speaker 1: and I don't know, I think Jane and that's in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, and Jane Daniels is a significantly better
Speaker 1: football players.
Speaker 3: It also was.
Speaker 5: True he had a bum ankle. He came out before
Speaker 5: halftime of that game. He came he was on pace
Speaker 5: to throw four hundred yards that game. So I don't know,
Speaker 5: probably didn't like that, all right, So yeah, the Cowboys, right?
Speaker 3: Uh T C.
Speaker 5: Deckard from blogging on the Boys, all right, he actually
Speaker 5: was very high on Jayde and Daniels. He gave a
Speaker 5: little praise. So I'm just going to read a short
Speaker 5: bit of this. He says, instead of others pointing out
Speaker 5: Daniels had excellent wide receivers, they should point out that
Speaker 5: he's the work he's put in each and every day
Speaker 5: to become a top quarterback prospect. Unlike some quarterbacks, Daniels
Speaker 5: didn't enter the season as a surefire draft pick. He
Speaker 5: earned it and now he's bringing that to Washington, So
Speaker 5: a little respect from the cowboy.
Speaker 4: So you don't like that, you'll you heard it from
Speaker 4: old Dallas, from the place. But I'm glad somebody is
Speaker 4: looking at it through clear eyes and clear visions. All Right, Dallas, we.
Speaker 3: Gave you the last twenty years to do what you
Speaker 3: were gonna do. Now it's our time.
Speaker 2: No, I'm just I'm happy, just for the safe for
Speaker 2: the sake of We talked about this pre draft man,
Speaker 2: just like, how is it that I'm getting better and
Speaker 2: you're putting that against me?
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Like, I mean, last time I heard Joe Burrow transferred
Speaker 2: and had two first round draft picks their receivers. You
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, two receives in the league. And
Speaker 2: exactly so I'm saying to myself, you can't. It's not
Speaker 2: an indictment on me that I got better and I
Speaker 2: had guys that I got them better. Also, I mean,
Speaker 2: they couldn't do it without me, so we did it together,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. So yeah, I'm happy that
Speaker 2: he was able to acknowledge that because I do believe
Speaker 2: that you can't fought Jayden Daines for winning the Heisman. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it was foughting for being a hideman player.
Speaker 1: And what I will say, as I do think teams
Speaker 1: you worry about doing threat quarterbacks. That's why I think
Speaker 1: the Washington Canti is one of the reasons that they
Speaker 1: end up drafting them, right, because defensively limits what you
Speaker 1: can do.
Speaker 3: I finish say, it ties us down, exposes all the cracks.
Speaker 1: So I think even though they might not be expressing
Speaker 1: certain I know if if I was the DC for Dallas,
Speaker 1: if I was the DC for Philly, I'm like, I'm like, dang,
Speaker 1: like now this because become a little bit more complicated
Speaker 1: in terms of how they're prepping. And also we got
Speaker 1: to see what cliffs how Clif's gonna use them. But
Speaker 1: those legs, man.
Speaker 4: Those legs make us have to play what we call honest.
Speaker 3: We can't cheat.
Speaker 4: I can't cheat you on certain blitzes and I can't
Speaker 4: cheat you and play two men under I can't cheat you.
Speaker 4: We can only play defenses that all eleven us quarterback.
Speaker 4: So now guess what. It shrinks your playbook. And this
Speaker 4: ain't gonna happen one week. Yeah, yeah, Now it might
Speaker 4: be a coordinator like I'm just gonna run what I
Speaker 4: run and time them DB's turning his back. Number five
Speaker 4: gonna be running right beside. They ain't gonna even know it,
Speaker 4: So it shrinks the playbook.
Speaker 3: I must say that.
Speaker 1: And I think, you know, it's cool that he made
Speaker 1: the reference to Robert in twenty twelve because ten of
Speaker 1: you and I were both here obviously, and I remember
Speaker 1: playing each week and we would see eight man box
Speaker 1: Cover three every single week. Every week that's what we saw.
Speaker 2: And then we were getting off on the house because
Speaker 2: guess what, y'all don't have to play no play like
Speaker 2: whenever it was open last week, gon be open this week?
Speaker 2: You lining up guys that damn we just me and
Speaker 2: Pierre and the boy. We looking at HL like boy
Speaker 2: we eat and you did mean throw it up?
Speaker 3: And the dB over there like, man, I'm so tired
Speaker 3: over three. I don't know what to do.
Speaker 4: But he understands we can only play cover three a
Speaker 4: couple four to stop them to day.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think the other thing I'd point to
Speaker 1: is that, like, I think Robert was really good in
Speaker 1: twenty twelve, right, I think one rookie of the year.
Speaker 1: But I think and this is just you know, I've
Speaker 1: watched I went back and watched him Robert Griffrom the
Speaker 1: third tape because everyone was making the comp and I
Speaker 1: will say, Jaye Daniels at this point in his career,
Speaker 1: that pass is a much better passer. Yeah, and I
Speaker 1: think that's gonna again that lays like raises the floor
Speaker 1: of the offense. Couple that with the simplification of defenses.
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of things that people in
Speaker 1: the division need to be concerned about because I think
Speaker 1: he's going to be a heck of a ball player.
Speaker 1: And again, we've only seen two practices, but he's already
Speaker 1: kind of checking some of those boxes, which is pretty cool.
Speaker 1: So I think that's going to do it for today's show. Guys,
Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining us. Please make sure
