We were 10 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 1: in the postseason now Buck. College football is being to 11 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,480 Speaker 1: wrap up. We only have one game left, so today 12 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,520 Speaker 1: let's jump in on the playoffs. We've got coaching firings 13 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,519 Speaker 1: to discuss. What's the most attractive opening. We will talk 14 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,600 Speaker 1: about the bowl games we've seen in previous the National 15 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,880 Speaker 1: Championship game. Yeah. Man, it's a lot of crazy at 16 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff to get to. Um, it's unbelievable. Um. 17 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: It's a fun time of the head coaching openings, and 18 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: then we're still doing the college football playoff. For a 19 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: football fan, this is the perfect time year because you 20 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: have a smortgeseport of things to entertain yourself with and 21 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,759 Speaker 1: I talked about this kind of being the unofficial launch 22 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 1: of draft season because once the regular season is done, 23 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: twenty teams now their fan bases are looking to the 24 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 1: future and that's free agency in the draft. So for them, 25 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: we will get into the draft stuff a little bit 26 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: later on, but buck, let's start here with the wild 27 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 1: card games we've got coming up in the NFL and 28 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 1: and go through those here and see who you like. 29 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: Let's start off NFC Seahawks Lions. We're looking forward to 30 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: in that one. You know, I think this is a 31 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 1: tough matchup for the Detroit lines because they are one 32 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,399 Speaker 1: dimensional offensive team, beer team that doesn't have the ability 33 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: to run the ball, and so you're trying to really 34 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: attack the heart of what the Seahawks do well. Typically, 35 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: they're one of the best past defenses. Even without Earl 36 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: Thomas Dave kind of fallen back to the middle of 37 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: the pack a little bit, but it's still a dangerous 38 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,680 Speaker 1: They passed first on the outside or to Frank Clark, 39 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: Cliff April, Michael Bennett, they can get after the quarterback, 40 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: and you have Matthew Stafford kind of going into the fight, 41 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: uh without all of his weapons. In terms of he 42 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: has the middle fingers. Not all of his digits, forget 43 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: his weapons, he has the middle finger injury. That is 44 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: kind of change what he was able to do early 45 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: in the year. And because he's inconsistent now as a thrower, 46 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: they're inconsistent as a team because when he was throwing well, 47 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,119 Speaker 1: they were working in intermediate areas to underneath are HEA's 48 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 1: moving the ball with a short passing game. He's no 49 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: longer able to do it at the level that he 50 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: was doing it earlier, and it's kind of put their 51 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: offense and a bit of a rut. I'll tell you 52 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: what in this game. One of the key players to me, 53 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham. He's got some big plays down the field. 54 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 1: I think when you play with Russell Wilson, it's not 55 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: like playing with the regular quarterback because you're gonna be 56 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: so off scheduled. To Jimmy Graham, you think about him 57 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: being with Drew Brees. Everything is timing. You know, I 58 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: Drew Brees isn't take many sacks. He makes these quick 59 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: through his progression as the balls out of his hands. 60 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: You get used to comfortable playing in that format with 61 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. It's about broken plays, extending plays, and being 62 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: able to create. I think Jimmy Graham's getting more comfortable 63 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: the more time he's spent with Russell Wilson, and that's 64 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: going to generate some big plays for them down the field. Yeah, 65 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 1: I mean, I think Jimmy Graham has been a big 66 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,799 Speaker 1: piece of the Postle puzzle offensively. His ability to control 67 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: the middle of the field certainly says the table for 68 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: Doug Ball when and some of the other guys on 69 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: the perimeter, they lose Tyler a lot could who was 70 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: giving them kind of that special playmaker a building. Jimmy 71 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: Graham has to be a guy that each week is 72 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: ten or so targets because when you can can control 73 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: the middle to field with him, it really allows them 74 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: to do other things. And because they don't have the 75 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: running game like we're used to seeing them lean on 76 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: year after year when they have Marshawn Lynch, it's more 77 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: important that they find a way to find that number 78 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: one guy in the passing game so they can be 79 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: consistent and move the ball. Because their offensive line is 80 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: leaky and Russell Wilson's been having to make so many 81 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: plays on scramble tosses, they need to be consistent in 82 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 1: the past. Has gotta do something too, and he's had 83 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: a couple of sacks here in the last few weeks 84 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: this season, but he's gonna have to be instrumental on this. 85 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: He has to he has to be a factor. A 86 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: good thing is that offensive line doesn't have any high 87 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: level people, so he should be able to get off 88 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: and if they can create some pressure on Russell Wilson, 89 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 1: maybe he can throw them a pick or two to 90 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: keep them in the game. The big thing that you 91 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: want to see from the Seattle Seahawks, A lot of 92 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: us still hold out hope that this can be a 93 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: team that can make a legitimate run. I need to 94 00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: see if on offense they can run the ball with 95 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: Thomas Rolls. I know the numbers of late say they're 96 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: getting better, but I need to feel that presence because 97 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: so much of what made them special for that four 98 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: or five year period was their ability to be dominant 99 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: to run the ball. I need to see more from them. 100 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: All right, Buck, who do you like in this thing? 101 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Seattle. I think Seattle is just 102 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 1: too tough to beat at home. I think they have 103 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 1: the advantage. I look for them to move on to 104 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: plan in the next round. Yeah. I like Seattle at 105 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: home as well. I look, it's it's just that's a 106 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: tough place to go in there. And the thing is 107 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: with that crowd, noise is gonna let that defensive line 108 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 1: get loose a little bit. I think they get a 109 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: huge advantage because they get able to jump to snap, 110 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: anticipated snap, get around the corner. All right, let's move 111 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: on here. Next game in the NFC, it's a rematch 112 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: we've seen in years past, Packers hosting the Giants here. 113 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 1: Giants been pretty successful, two wins going in there in 114 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 1: the postseason. What do you think of this one? Uh? 115 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: Teams that are nearly identical, particularly on offense. Ben McAdoo 116 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 1: served as a office coordinator or quarterback coach under Mine McCarthy. 117 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: Their offensive system is a very similar. The differences the 118 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: quarterback play Aaron Rodgers playing at the m VP level. 119 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: He has been phenomenal since weeks seventh, already touchdowns forty 120 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,679 Speaker 1: touchdowns on the year. He finds a way to extend 121 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: plays and buy time for his receivers to uncover. That 122 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: has been the difference because they're making their big plays 123 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: on those second and third reaction plays for the New 124 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: York Giants, Eli Manning is playing probably the worst football 125 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: that we've seen in his career. He can't get the 126 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: ball out on time. He struggles pushing the ball more 127 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: than fifteen yards consistently with the accuracy. And so they're 128 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: really a one man show, and that's Odell Beckham Jr. 129 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: If he can't take a slant and go the distance, 130 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 1: they've had a tough time scoring points. I don't know 131 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: if they can make it up and kind of overall 132 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: the offense in six days. But they have to do 133 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: it because they have favorable They have favorable matchups on 134 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 1: the outside. But can Eli be consistent enough to take 135 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: advantage of him. I like Stirling Shepherd, I like Victor Cruz, 136 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: I like Odell Beckham against his secondary I just don't 137 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: trust Eli to make those plays. How about a key 138 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 1: for the Giants. How about DRC and the job he's done. 139 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: He's been great an all kinds of ploys. He's made 140 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: a lot of plays. Gen or As Jenkins makes plays 141 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: when he's healthy. Those two guys can do things the middle. 142 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: So from that standpoint, I think the Giants can slow 143 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: the Packers down. The thing that you have to worry 144 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: about is can you generate enough of a pass rush 145 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 1: on Aaron Rodgers. These guys matched early in the season. 146 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: I think the Packers won twenty three to seventeen. Aaron 147 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 1: Rodgers didn't have a big day, but also he wasn't 148 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: playing the level that he's playing it now. I think 149 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: this is a very close game. I think it goes 150 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: down to the end. I'm gonna go with the Giants 151 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 1: because I trust their defense more than the Packers defense, 152 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: and that is the deciding factor in this one in 153 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 1: my mind. Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna stay with the 154 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 1: home team here. I think Green Bay gets rolling. I 155 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 1: think the extended plays with Aaron Rodgers can be the 156 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: difference there in the Packers sneak one out. But I'm 157 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: gonna make a total left turn on you here. You 158 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: know this is coming. But I was thinking d r C, 159 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: which got me thinking to d n C E, which 160 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: is the band that Joe Jonas is in. Right. So 161 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 1: I'm at the Orange Bowl Buck this last weekend. I'm 162 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: down there on the field and I see this one 163 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: dude with the weirdest outfit of the football game I've 164 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: ever seen in my life. And this funky haircut. And 165 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: then and then I said, what what what is this? 166 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: And then and then I see Joe Jonas like not 167 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 1: far away from so I, oh, this guy is in 168 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 1: that band or whatever in in d n C. So 169 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: I saw two celebrities on my boll tour on game 170 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: on the field before games. So and I'm not counting 171 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: like Damn Marito and some other people I saw, but 172 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: Joe Jonas okay, number one, bit great one. I can 173 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: put him in my pocket. He's a little, a little guy. 174 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: And then the second famous person I saw was the 175 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: guy remember the show Home Improvement with Tim Allen. Yeah, 176 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: I remember the guy with the beard. I think his name. Yeah, 177 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: I saw him too. Apparently he's a big Washington fan. 178 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: Oh who know that? Who know? Um? Anyways, those are 179 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: the two people I saw bullgames. Let's go over to 180 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: the a f C. Here Steelers Dolphins. It's a rematch. 181 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: The Dolphins actually got him earlier this year. This is 182 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: a really good game. It's a really good game because 183 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,239 Speaker 1: the Dolphins did have their way with the Pittsburgh Steels. 184 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: They ran the ball down their throat. J G. I 185 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: had a big breakout game over two h yards rushing 186 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: kind of helped the Dolphins find their identity as an 187 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: offensive team. They don't need to lean on that identity 188 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: with Matt Moore at quarterback against his defense. They need 189 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: to be able to run the football and control the 190 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: terms of the game. I like the receivers on the outside. 191 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: Even the Steelers have improved in the back end. I 192 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: still like Jarvis Landry, DeVante Parker being able to do it, 193 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: and Kenny Steels has also been an X factor. But 194 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: the Steelers, it's about the Killer Bees. But the Killer 195 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: Bees are healthy, they are a dynamic. They may have 196 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: the best offense in football, Big Band Levan Bill, Antonio Brown. 197 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: I don't know if the Dolphins can slow them down enough, 198 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: which is why the running game is key, because if 199 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: they can play keepaway, that gives him a chance. I 200 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: just don't know if they can get it down. Here's 201 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: the thing the Dolphins, this is everybody talks about tempo 202 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: in the NFL right now, right It's a new thing. 203 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: Came up from college and we want to go, go go. 204 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,559 Speaker 1: If I'm the Dolphins that play clocks hitting three before 205 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: I snapped, we want to want to shorten this thing 206 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: as much as you can you look, the third downs 207 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: are gonna be huge if you're the Miami Dolphins, long 208 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: sustained drives, keep that offense parked on the sideline. If 209 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: you're the Dolphins and you win this game, I think 210 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 1: you're hoping it's gonna be a seventeen fourteen type game 211 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 1: because it gets in into a shootout. You've got Ben 212 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: Roethlisberg on one sideline, Matt More on the other. I 213 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: know how that's gonna end. You want to control it, 214 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: you want to shorten the game. It's a nice strategy 215 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: that's talking about eating the play clock down. I'll tell 216 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 1: you a quick story when we were together, when I 217 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: was at the Carolina Panthers on the Super Bowl run. 218 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 1: They we went to Super Bowl thirty eight. We played 219 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: the Greatest Show on Turf in St. Louis with the Rams, 220 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,199 Speaker 1: and John Fox said, we want to shorten the game 221 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 1: if we could, we want to make it a twelve 222 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: possession game. We instructed Jake delm to bleed the clock 223 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: all the way down to five seconds on the play 224 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: clock on each and every snap from the beginning of 225 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: the game. So that strategy that you talk about is 226 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: one that certainly could work against the Pittsburgh Steelers. If 227 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 1: you're able to convert on third down, you want to 228 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 1: shorten the game and not give Big Ben a number 229 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: of opportunities to find his rhythm as a passer. Alright, 230 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: somebody on here, Dolphin fan, is it's hot? He's saying that. 231 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: He said the first time we played the Steelers. Go 232 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: check what the score that game was. Yeah, but it 233 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: was a season post season, different two different animals there. 234 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: All right, So look, I think Pittsburgh gets it done. 235 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:49,719 Speaker 1: You're with me on now? Yeah, I'm with you on that. 236 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: I think Pittsburgh wins. All right, here we go. Texans 237 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: Raiders backup Bowl. Actually I guess is Oswaer still back? 238 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: He started then a backup. Now he's back starting again, 239 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: you know, ironically, right last year he's played some games 240 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,439 Speaker 1: and then got hooked and Peyton, the former starter came in. 241 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,719 Speaker 1: Now he was a starter, he gets hooked. Now he's 242 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: gonna go back in different circumstances, different circumstances, different circumstances. 243 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: But who would think that that? Who would have thought 244 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: that the Houston Texas would would pine for Brian Hoyer 245 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: at quarterback? Right now? He has been more productive than 246 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: Oswalder and Tom Savage combined what he was able to 247 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: give them. The big thing for brock Oswalder, brock Ostwalder 248 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: can't turn the ball over. He has to find a 249 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: way to get the ball to DeAndre Hopkins, and they 250 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: need to lean on the rest of their playmakers. You're 251 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: talking about a Houston team that is getting a lot 252 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: of support from their defense. Offensively, they just can't mess 253 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: it up. And I think if you're Bill O'Brien, you're 254 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 1: really conservative against his Raiders team because if I'm looking 255 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: at Connor Cook playing quarterback, I'm thinking, like a couple 256 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: defense should be able to control the game. So we 257 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: may only have to score seventeen points to win this 258 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,839 Speaker 1: one broadcast while the dust don't screw it up. If 259 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,719 Speaker 1: they do that, they could have an opportunity to win. 260 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: Out for Clowney, Watch out for clown He's playing so well, 261 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: got a little rest off that last week at the season, 262 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: and he's gonna be fresh and ready to go. I 263 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: like Houston in this game, and I think this could 264 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: have the makes of a really ugly football game. I 265 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: think new Copkins makes a couple of plays that's all 266 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: you need on offense. I mean it can low scoring game, 267 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: and I think that Clowney generates a turnover for their 268 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: defense and they won it. This is a big game 269 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: because they're hitting. They hit a little battle that people 270 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: don't talk about. Cline has heard everyone go google. Guy 271 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: got over Khalil Mac. They played each other this This 272 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 1: is an opportunity on a big stage where everyone has 273 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 1: to watch. He can kind of make his name known. 274 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: His look. I'm the number one overall pick from the draft. 275 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 1: Injuries kept me from being the guy that MANI thought 276 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: I was. I think he can have a huge game. 277 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: But I still believe in the Raiders, and my logic 278 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: is their skill. Guys on the outside, I think have 279 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: an opportunity to do something. Michael Crabtree, Marii Cooper. You 280 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 1: have Lett Tavi's Murray and two other young running backs 281 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: playing behind them. If the other guys can raise it 282 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 1: up a little bit, I think Connor Cooking hit enough 283 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 1: plays to do it. And I'm thinking that Oswald is 284 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: going to give them a couple of short fields with 285 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: his own turnovers. All right, I like I like Houston 286 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: to win this game. Bucky, and I'm gonna challenge of 287 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 1: people on Periscope on here you send me a bunch 288 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 1: of hearts. If you think Houston is gonna beat the Riders, 289 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: I want to say, these hearts get cranked up here. 290 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 1: If not that, I'm gonna assume you guys all in periscope. 291 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: I think the Raiders. There's a lot of hearts. There's 292 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: a lot of hearts coming right now. They are on, 293 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: they are on. The Texans there with it was like 294 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: like Lucky Charms over here. Oh no, they're in there 295 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,439 Speaker 1: with me. Um, all right, let's uh, let's move on here. 296 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 1: We talked about the playoffs a little bit. Buck, How 297 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:29,079 Speaker 1: about what's going on in the NFL with all these openings. 298 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: We've got six openings right now, San Diego, l A, Jacksonville, Buffalo, 299 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 1: San Francisco, and Denver. You just look at those six 300 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: jobs off top of your head. If you're gonna say 301 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: the most attractive of that group is which the Denver Broncos. Yeah, 302 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,199 Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos and most attracted because the defense is 303 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,719 Speaker 1: in place. Depending upon what you're able to do with 304 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 1: Wave Phillips in terms of retaining him, I like your 305 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: chances of being able to get back in the mix. Um. 306 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: Obviously you have some challenges because you have to figure 307 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: out how you want to um play with the quarterbacks 308 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: that you have in front of Trevor Simeon and Packiston Lynch. 309 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: What do you believe their strengths are. What do you 310 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 1: believe you can do with them? Can you get it right? 311 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,079 Speaker 1: I believe you have to fix the offensive line. But 312 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 1: if you fix the offensive line with the running game 313 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: that they have, they should be fine. Um. After that 314 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: Denver job, I'm a little intrigued by the Jacksonville Jaguar 315 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: job only because like the young talent that they have. 316 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 1: The defense played surprisingly at the top ten level. Um. 317 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: I like the weapons on the outside, Robinson Hearns, Mark 318 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: Easley running back. So okay, question Mark is in the quarterback. 319 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: But I think that job has a lot of potential. 320 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,079 Speaker 1: I also like the division that they played because I 321 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 1: don't think any of those teams are gonna run away 322 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 1: from it. Here's the one thing I'll say. I know 323 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: they they a little bit of a mess right now, 324 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: whether they're gonna stay or whether they're gonna go. But 325 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: when I let me give you the quarterbacks of these teams, 326 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: of the jobs that's open, you've got Denver, Trevor Simeon 327 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: San Francisco, Colin Kaepernick, Buffalo, maybe E. J. Manuel based 328 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: on what you're getting from what the name that we're 329 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 1: hearing there, Jacksonville, Blake Bortles, Jared Goff or Philip Rivers. 330 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: Who stands out like a sore thumb on that list. 331 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: I mean, Philip Rivers certainly stands out. The first thing 332 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: that I have to do if I'm looking at the job, 333 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: I have to figure out why the last two seasons, 334 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: the final half of the year, he's kind of fallen apart, 335 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: forcing them they got no where ever he's hurt, but 336 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: also knowing that he's coming, I think you have to 337 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 1: change the way that the Charges play. I think he 338 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: has another run, but I think you need to lean 339 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 1: on the supporting cast. They have to become a team 340 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: that is more run oriented, driven by Melvin Gordon and 341 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: some of the pieces uh that they have in place 342 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: to run the football consistently and successfully. If they do that, 343 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: Philip Ver certainly can make a run. I do like 344 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: what they have emerging on the corners, Melvin Ingram, Joey Bosa, 345 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: some of those young guys on defense. I'm intrigued. I 346 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: would like to think that I could keep the defense 347 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: cordiner John Pigano because I think he does a pretty 348 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: good job with those guys. How about the Chargers pick 349 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 1: seventh in the draft, Bucky, they could get a premier 350 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: and I'm talking premier safety or a premier inside linebacker, 351 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: Ruben Fosters seniors. We can talk about him. What a 352 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: heck of a pick he would be. You got Vrette 353 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: coming back at corner, You got Hayward who was a 354 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: Pro Bowler this year. Now you add a big time linebacker, 355 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: a big time safety with that defensive line you just 356 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: talked about, You've got a great defense. Yeah, you know. 357 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: And then then that's that's the funny thing that is 358 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: when you play the game. Uh, what position is deeper? 359 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: I think that safety class is tremendous this year. You 360 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: possibly could go and get a Ruben Foster. Uh, put 361 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: him right there alongside Denzel Perriman. You don't have two 362 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: rugged players in the middle of a three or four 363 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: defense that can do it. Or maybe you get that 364 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: playmaking safety guy like Jamal Well. He's an underclassman. L 365 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: number thirty three, number thirty two for LSU. About with 366 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: the Scarlett and Scarlett Scarlett and great, he could come in. 367 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: There's some young guys that certainly could come in and 368 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 1: give them some play making Billy. I also think they 369 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: still may need to find another corner because the red 370 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: has been hurt so much. You just want to make 371 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: sure you have enough depth. If you lose him, someone 372 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: else can go. And more teams are playing Nickel seventy 373 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: eight percent a time. That Nickel corner is now started. 374 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 1: So it's okay to invest the top picking him, no question. 375 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: All right, speaking of draft order here, if first three 376 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: picks Cleveland, San Francisco, Chicago, if you were going to 377 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: say the team of the three most likely at this 378 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 1: early point in time to go quarterback, of those, which 379 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: would it be none, go none? Now, I mean based 380 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: on the talent that is available. We've seen the guys 381 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 1: that have talked about declaiming for the draft, some of 382 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: those who have already declared. I don't believe any of 383 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: those guys are valued within the top five top ten 384 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: in terms of what they're talent shows on the field. 385 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: May they go there, yes, but we've seen time and 386 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: time again when people push quarterbacks up, they are often 387 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: left disappointed. And so if I'm Cleveland, San Francisco, Chicago. 388 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: I'm looking at other areas of the team, because this 389 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: draft is deep in other areas. Let the board come 390 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 1: to you. Don't try and manufacturer make someone something that 391 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: they're not. I believe those teams should avoid a quarterback 392 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 1: in the first round. You got the Dack factor, right, 393 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: So some of these teams are gonna say, we just 394 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: gotta find that guy. Let's find that guy in the 395 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: and and I think that I think that speaks to 396 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: a point. And I don't know if we we can 397 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: highlight it enough, but the study that you did with 398 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks in the league, the majority of the quarterbacks 399 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: that are playing well, we're guys that we're graduates play well, 400 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 1: or they were underclassman whose talent was so superior. Had 401 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: to take them the top three, had to take them 402 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: in the top three, because if they're not taking in 403 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: the top three based on their talent alone, it typically 404 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 1: doesn't work out. For Yeah, it's it's it's interesting when 405 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: you really break it down to look at it. But 406 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 1: I think keep an eye in Chicago. I know, you know, 407 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: look at they We're gonna move on from j Cutler. 408 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 1: That era has passed. And it's just one of those 409 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 1: teams that how often we're gonna be picking all the 410 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: way up here? You know, I got some other good 411 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: young players and maybe it's time we just get a 412 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 1: They need a fresh face at the quarterback position. I 413 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: think the big thing will be with Ryan Pace and 414 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: John Fox. Their relationship and how long does Ryan Pace 415 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: believe John Fox can be there and be there coach 416 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 1: Having worked for Coach Fox in Carolina, Foxy values a 417 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: guy who has tremendous ball security in terms of he 418 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: won't give the ball away, He's gonna make good decisions. Um. Yeah, 419 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 1: he can be big, he can run around a little bit, 420 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 1: but he wants a guy that is going to play 421 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 1: winning football. And by that I mean he understands situation. 422 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 1: He understands that the football should be protected at a premium. 423 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: Of those young guys that we talked about being in 424 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: this class, which one of those quarterbacks can play in 425 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: that fashion? If they can play that way, then I 426 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 1: think the Bears can go in that direction. But you 427 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: have Ryan Pace who also is like it's Foxy my 428 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 1: long term, it'd be interesting when it comes to the quarterback, 429 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 1: how they decide to go and who kind of curries 430 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 1: favorite in their room. Well you gotta remember too, now, 431 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 1: Ryan Pace all that time in New Orleans, Drew Brees, 432 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,160 Speaker 1: that style of quarterback. Drew Brees was second round pick 433 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: obviously was you know, went from San Diego and end 434 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 1: up being a huge, huge success there in New Orleans. 435 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: But that style of quarterback usually you're not gonna take 436 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: one of those in the top three. Yeah, I mean, 437 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: undersized guy. And we are all impacted by our influences 438 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: and who we've been around. So Ryan Pace has been 439 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 1: around the Drew Brees, John Fox was around Home and 440 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: some of those other guys. He found that you were 441 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: able to win with other guys. So if we're looking 442 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 1: beyond that first year quarterbacks, are there some intriguing options. 443 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: The Dak Prescott factors certainly will weigh into the decision. Also, 444 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 1: I think the Derek Carr factor will also with them, 445 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: because Derek Carr was the second round pick, so some 446 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: people around the league think that Davis Webb could end 447 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: up being the Derek car of this class. I think 448 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,959 Speaker 1: I think Davis Webb is a guy that is uh, 449 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: a guy who could benefit it could be the beneficiary 450 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 1: that Dak Prescott Derek Carr situation because he has a 451 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,479 Speaker 1: lot of reps um. He has an armed the thing 452 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 1: that will come back and possibly kill him. Playing in 453 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: the bear race system, much like Jerry Goff with a 454 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: great dad came out of them. So it would be 455 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,919 Speaker 1: it would be interesting because all these quarterbacks are coming 456 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 1: out to spread, so I believe and throw that away. 457 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: We have to throw in that argument away, and we're 458 00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: gonna have to evaluate the kid and the leadership ability 459 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 1: and all the other stuff. A couple of things to 460 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 1: get to before we wrap here. What an amazing game 461 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 1: we had last night in the Rose Bowl usc Pen State. 462 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 1: I was down there and Buck he was. It was phenomenal. 463 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: I was at the Orange Bowl with with Florida State 464 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 1: and Michigan and other phenomenal games. We got all the 465 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 1: good games. We've seen some good ones. How about the 466 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: Sun Bowl? How was it the some The Sun Bowl? 467 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: Wasn't you know it was? It wasn't great. El Paso 468 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,880 Speaker 1: was l pass so, I mean it was. It reminded 469 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 1: me of why I'm no longer a scale because it 470 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 1: was funny, like like flying fine folks into El Paso. 471 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: That listen. I liked it, but but as I was 472 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 1: driving in, I was like man, I remember I used 473 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: to make this ride here and all over and back 474 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: truth or consequence, right, yeah, drive through there. Oh that 475 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 1: was tough. Um. In terms of looking at the quarterback 476 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: Mitch Trobiscus the second time, did I've seen him live? Um? 477 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 1: Obviously he plays at my alma mater. I'm close to 478 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: a lot of the people around the program. They say 479 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 1: good things about him in terms of leadership ability or whatever. 480 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: At some point, the way he has been talked about, 481 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: the way he's been talked about and speculated in me 482 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: his circles about being the top guy, a top ten pick. 483 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,360 Speaker 1: For me, when I look at players that are regarded 484 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: as top ten players, at some point, I like to 485 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,439 Speaker 1: feel in the game, oh, this guy is the best 486 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: player in the game. And neither of the games that 487 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: I went to when I saw Mitch that I ever 488 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: feel like he was the best guy on the field. 489 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: Now I'm gonna take that. I'm I'm compared that to 490 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 1: a guy like Deshaun Watson or even a Deshaun Kaiser. 491 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: When I've looked at those guys, and I've been around 492 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: those guys and watch them play flaws and all, there 493 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: have been times where I'm like this guy is the 494 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 1: best guy in the field, and technically we can pick 495 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: apart all of those guys, but at some point where 496 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: we're handing the ball to the guy as as simple 497 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 1: as playing pick up. If we're playing pick up in 498 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: the park, which quarterback do I want? I want the 499 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: guy that at some point can take it over. I 500 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 1: just haven't seen Mitch do that enough. I'm not saying 501 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: he can't do it, but in one year, thirteen stars, 502 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: I haven't seen him do it enough for me to 503 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: comfortably say that's the dude. I want to hang my 504 00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 1: hat on the way you kind of described that as 505 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 1: like being able to Can you feel him? Can you 506 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: feel his presence a little bit when you're out? You know? 507 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: Is it influencing that the game? Is it? Okay? This 508 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: is the tip? This tips to scale. They got this 509 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 1: guy that tips to scale. Look, I was at a 510 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: game and always not draft eligible Sam Donald tipped the scale. 511 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: Yes for USC. I mean, he he was the difference 512 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: make And you could even say the other guy on 513 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: the other side, like Tam who knows what he will 514 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: be or whatever. But there was a time in the 515 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 1: game I was like, he's rolling. Now he's kind of 516 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 1: doing it like he kind of brought them back and 517 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: did some stuff. It's that field that in fact, or 518 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 1: that we're talking about franchise quarterbacks, guys that can salvage 519 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 1: and reverse the fortunes of her team. You gotta feel them. 520 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 1: And look, it's technically it may not always be right, 521 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: but final two minutes of a game, you have to 522 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: hand it to him. You have to trust him to 523 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: make that drive. They have to have something about them. 524 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,880 Speaker 1: I just need to see more from the North Carolina guy. Look, 525 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: I've seen it from de Sean. De Sean has his 526 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: own issues or whatever, but I do know the bigger 527 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 1: the game, the better he plays when it comes to 528 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: just winning. There's something to be said for that. And 529 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,360 Speaker 1: here's the thing I've I've got a dig in. That's 530 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: one of the one of the things I'm gonna do 531 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: here in this next week once we kind of have 532 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,479 Speaker 1: a good idea of who what all quarterbacks are coming out. 533 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 1: I've done several of them, but there's a bunch more 534 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: I need to do, and more on the guys have 535 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 1: already done, like digging back Deshaun Kaiser this year. That 536 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: year did not go the way he wanted. He had 537 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 1: the ball in his hands and a couple of different games, 538 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: late game chance to make something happen. It didn't happen. 539 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,160 Speaker 1: But you can't evaluating a vacuum. You gotta look back 540 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: at last year Virginia game. Big time throw, yeah, boom, 541 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: make it happen. So he had several moments last year 542 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: where he did make those big time game changing plays 543 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: overcoming deficits. So it's a deep evaluation process. Brad Kayak 544 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 1: caming out. I was at his bowl game. Had he 545 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 1: had a good game. Um, I thought the stats maybe 546 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: a little bit sexier than the actual performance was. I 547 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 1: have my concerns about him, but he's very smart. He 548 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 1: can make every throw, he's got, touched all those things. 549 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: The problem is he's he's a real heavy footed dude 550 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: and still getting move at all. He struggles when number 551 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,120 Speaker 1: one is not there and he's got to work deep 552 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 1: and get off of his spot. He struggles. So those 553 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: are some concerns with me. And really when you look 554 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: around the league, Tom Brady, you know we had the 555 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:09,360 Speaker 1: the Mannings. You've got Brady, you kind of had these 556 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: status quarterbacks. They're dying breed. Bucky, you have to be 557 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 1: phenomenal because your playbook is restricted. Your playbook is restricted. 558 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: And from a movement standpoint, I should say now, intellectually, 559 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 1: those guys can handle anything you know, concept wise in 560 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: the in the route, but you're limiting yourself in terms 561 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: of him being able to buy and create on his own. 562 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 1: The best thing that I've ever heard from an offensive coordinator. 563 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 1: I was lucky enough to be around John Gruden and Oakland, 564 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 1: who was pretty good offensive coordinator. Obviously, uh, some of 565 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 1: the other guys. You need to have a quarterback that 566 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: can make you right. And sometimes he can make you 567 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: right with his mind his decision making. Other times he 568 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: can make you right by his ability to extend plays 569 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 1: and create Aaron Rodgers makes Mike McCarthy right because he 570 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,879 Speaker 1: can buy time and create these plays. And I know 571 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: we don't talk about Aaron Rodgers as a quote unquote 572 00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: sprint quarterback, but what he does is what we want 573 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: the spread quarterbacks to evolve to, not necessarily being a 574 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 1: dominant runner, but being an athlete that can escape pressure, 575 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 1: that can get on the edges and make plays off 576 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: the script. So when we look at these guys, you 577 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: talk about Brad Eye not necessarily having that. I want 578 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: a passer who has athleticism and mobility because it gives 579 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: me an opportunity to not have to call the perfect 580 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: game and steal winning games. So in scouting, terms are 581 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: always evolving, right. We talked about scott in terms all 582 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 1: the time. We have sheets and sheets of them. It 583 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: helps you when you're writing reports. And I just wrote 584 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:36,719 Speaker 1: down a new one. I believe this is a new one, 585 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 1: but I'm I'm using it from here on four because 586 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: what you just described I was thinking of it. You 587 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,880 Speaker 1: want your quarterback to be a problem a racer, yes, 588 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: so you just picture a guy with an a racer 589 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: and oh here comes a free rusher goes away. You 590 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: know what they were supposed to be. We got ran 591 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: the wrong route. That's all right. I'm gonnadjust them and 592 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: buy some time and we're gonna be able to make 593 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 1: something happen. Have to be able to do, that's what 594 00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: you want these guys to be able to do. And 595 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: Rogers maybe the best in the league at it right now, 596 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,360 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, all these guys, they can make you right 597 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: and they can make it where you don't have to 598 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: call it the perfect game but still find success. Aaron 599 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: Rodgers is the best at it in terms of extending plays, 600 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: buying time, making things happen. It doesn't matter what the 601 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 1: offensive line is in front of him, who he's dealing 602 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: with on the outside. When he gets it going, he's 603 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,439 Speaker 1: able to kind of change and elevate. And so when 604 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 1: we go back to bring it back to those quarterbacks 605 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: that we're talking about, Kaiser, Watson, Uh troubrisky looking at 606 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: these guys, who is the guy that has the ability 607 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 1: to play in a prototypical fashion while also giving me 608 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 1: the other stuff? Now, I will say in our early evaluation, 609 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 1: I like the Sean, but if I had got you 610 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 1: gotta specify. We talked to Sean, now is gonna be 611 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: Watson and ka I would say the guy that I 612 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: think most teams would say is a more consensus prototypical 613 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 1: franchise quarterback on the hoof and what they bring. I 614 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 1: would say to Sean Kaiser, Yeah, I'm with you, size um, athletic, 615 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 1: enough to do all that other stuff, but also has 616 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,680 Speaker 1: shown the ability to play from the pocket. Look, Mitch 617 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,479 Speaker 1: to me is kind of like Alex Smith two point oh. 618 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 1: And I like Alex Smith. I don't think there's anything 619 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: wrong with that. I just don't know the gravitas to 620 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: uh that you're looking for. I don't know if he 621 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: has that part of it. We have to spend more 622 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: time with him and just see. Well, we don't have 623 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: time to go through all these different Bowl games here. 624 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: But I was at that Michigan Florida State game, and 625 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: I mean, Dalvin Cook was phenomenal, and you said you 626 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 1: may have to change, and so I gotta go. I'm 627 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: gonna go. Look, I'm gonna do some more. Like one 628 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 1: of the things that you the worst thing you can 629 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: do it is an evaluator is put your head in this, 630 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 1: you know, plug your ears and close your eyes and 631 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,200 Speaker 1: just say no, no, no, I believe this. I believe this. 632 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: I'm no know. Hey, look you go. That's why you 633 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: go to games, and that drives you back to the 634 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 1: film room. Say, okay, I have for net over Dalvin 635 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: Cook on my grade. I'm gonna go back. I'm gonna 636 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: watch two or three more games of each guy and 637 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: just make sure that I feel really good about Dalvin 638 00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: Cook was phenomenal. He's like really good players. See it 639 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 1: with your own eyes live in person, it's impressive. So 640 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 1: the other part of that is I also you know 641 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: talked earlier about not you know, evaluating the vacuum. I 642 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: also went to semifinal game and watched him fumble twice 643 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: against Oregon and cost fs you you know, a chance 644 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 1: in that football game. So he's got fumbling issues. He's 645 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 1: had some stuff off the field. You get to factor 646 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 1: all that in. I think he's had a couple of 647 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: shoulder surgeries as well. But the guy is that guy 648 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: is competitive, He is dynamic, and he is he is 649 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 1: a classic you know, one to one to one too. 650 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,479 Speaker 1: He's gone for seventy you know, so you look at 651 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: one good carry out of seven, way that was that 652 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: one carry put points on the board. I think styles 653 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,719 Speaker 1: make fights, and I think fit is a huge thing 654 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: in the evaluation process. If I'm a team like the 655 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys where i want to play hammer head football, 656 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: Leonard Fournett maybe the better fit because he's your every 657 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 1: down grind. If I'm in Minnesota Vikings, for instance, I'm 658 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 1: looking for maybe I'll ascue you a little more towards 659 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: Leonard Fournet because the physicality and toughness. If I'm one 660 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: of those pro style of fences where we used a 661 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: running back in a variety of different ways where he's 662 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: in the dot position, he's flanked out wide empty formations 663 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: with throwing passes. Maybe Dalvin Cook as your guy. I 664 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: think this is basically the customer going to the grocery 665 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 1: store and trying to figure out what am I trying 666 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: to prepare in the kitchen, and based on what I'm preparing, 667 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: these running backs will have different value to other people. 668 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 1: Can I give you a team here that I would 669 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: love to see him go here? But I know they've 670 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: addressed the position and they were great at it. This year. 671 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans have de Marco Murray. I think he was 672 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 1: second the league in rushing. Derrick Henry who played great right, 673 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: but can you imagine what that offensive line, the way 674 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: they moved people to line of scramm and you get 675 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 1: Larry Fournette with a head of steam rolling through their 676 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: whole mile nasty. I think they could be a bonus pick. 677 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 1: They're picking fifth, and they've got their own first round pick. 678 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: That fifth pick, of course involving the trade with the 679 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: Rams last year. Team two teams that I would look 680 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: at where he could be a nice fit at four. 681 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 1: The Jacksonville Jaguars. I know they've invested in Chris Ivery. 682 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 1: I'll take some pressure off Yield and I understand all 683 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 1: of that. But if you want to make your young 684 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: quarterback better, the best thing you can do is get 685 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 1: him a legitimate stud behind him and run the football. 686 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 1: In the division we've seen Tennessee made up a lot 687 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: of ground just by being a very physical run game. 688 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 1: Uh third ranked rushing attack. Easy to make up ground 689 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 1: in that fashion. If I'm the New York Jecks, I 690 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: have uncertainty at the quarterback position. Maybe we have to 691 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 1: go outside the building to find a guy. I need 692 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: to find an identity. What am I about? If I'm 693 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,719 Speaker 1: tired bowls? What? What are weird about it? We're about defense? 694 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 1: Where If we're about defense, that means on offense, we 695 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 1: need to be about running the football to complement that. 696 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 1: Leonard for Nett, there some star power grinded. I think 697 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: he could be a fit there forward six. Yeah, it's 698 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 1: gonna be fun, like we have plenty of time to 699 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: jump into all this draft stuff. I'm looking forward to it, Bucky, 700 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 1: but fun fun bull season so far? Real quick on 701 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: the National Championship game? Who do you like in Why 702 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 1: I'm going with Clemson and the reason I'm going with Clemson. 703 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: I think Clemson is probably the only team that could 704 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: go tote toe with Alabama on both sides of the 705 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: ball d Offensively, we can rave about Alabama in that 706 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 1: front seven, but man, Clemson can match him. Those young 707 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: dudes they have upfront, they can hunt, they can get 708 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: after the quarterback, they can stop to run. Bolware is 709 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 1: a nice leader in the middle. In the secondary, Tankersley 710 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: was better than I thought on the outside, did a 711 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: good job or whatever. But offensively, I believe they have 712 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: the weapons to potentially attack Alabama. Alabama's playing with four 713 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 1: corners in the back end, that receiver corps with Mike Williams, 714 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 1: who's a grown man, a real dude, or Tavis scott Um, 715 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: some of the other guys, Ray Raymond, Cloud Hunter, renfro Legged. 716 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: They have a lot of stuff for Deshaun Watson. And 717 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 1: then we talked about erasers. I don't know if people 718 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 1: have noticed, but the last three or four games, DeShawn 719 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 1: Watson has started to run a little more. That creates 720 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 1: another thing. The problem is, I don't know if you 721 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 1: can take a whole lot of shots from them big 722 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: dudes Alabama has, You're gonna go Clemson. Okay, look, I 723 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 1: give them the edged quarterback. I was at the Alabama 724 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 1: game and Jalen Hurtson not play all that great. Obviously, 725 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: line Kiffin's gone now Starks taking over. But I've seen 726 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: Alabama play three times. But I've seen Clemson play in 727 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 1: the a SEC title games. I've seen both teams. I 728 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 1: think Clemson outstanding personnel both sides of the ball. They've 729 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: played them, there's no fear factor. But Alabama's defense in 730 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 1: the three games I've seen him suffocating. Oh, I mean 731 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: it is suffocating. It is, and this is gonna be 732 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 1: a salty bunch because they got lit up by I 733 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: know they won the game, but Clemson lit them up. 734 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: That's a prideful group that that got torched by Deshaun 735 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: Watson last year. I just can't. Man, if he does, hey, 736 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 1: hats off. If he does it two years in a 737 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: row and puts up forty points on Alabama, I'll say 738 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 1: I was wrong. I don't see it happening. Man. They 739 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 1: have been waiting for this game. Clemson has been waiting. 740 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: They've been laying in the cut waiting for an opportunity 741 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 1: to go back. It will be interesting to see because 742 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 1: as I said, going into this playoff thing for the 743 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: Shawn Watson, if he wants to prove to people that 744 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: he can be a quote unquote franchise quarterback, the best 745 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 1: way to do it is to play well. And these 746 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 1: these these marquee games. This is a marquee game. All 747 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 1: the eyes of watching everyone kind of remembers what he 748 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 1: did last year. If he's able to put another performance 749 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: up there against Alabama, kind of changes the narrative about 750 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 1: how people view him as a playmaker. Can I give 751 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 1: you the m VP of the game? O? O G. 752 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: Howard again? No, this guy played really well in this 753 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: game last year and and now he's better, better football player. 754 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 1: Ruben Foster, Oh, I mean, this is a dude. Shawn's 755 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: gonna be running. You talked about him running a lot 756 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: more lately. He's gonna have to run in this game. 757 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 1: And that dude in the middle of the field can 758 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 1: buzz sideline to sideline, and he's faster. He's faster than 759 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 1: the Shawn and have speed speed. Tim Williams, Uh, They're 760 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 1: they're going to make sure that they take care of 761 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 1: the zone read. Now, the thing would be, can they 762 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 1: take care of the zone read? And also match up 763 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: outside Mike Williams is a problem. Don't get wrong. It's 764 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 1: a lot of one on ones and stuff, so we 765 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 1: would get our moneys where from an evaluated. This is 766 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,719 Speaker 1: a popcorn game. This is a popcorn and a slurpy game. 767 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: He just sit there and you watch it because you're 768 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: going to answer the question that we typically can't get 769 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: answered in the evaluation process. Maul and Humphrey. Okay, Well, 770 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 1: if you're a big time guy a corner, let's see 771 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:12,839 Speaker 1: how you hold up against Mike Weirs. Mike willis number one. 772 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,359 Speaker 1: Let's see Calvin Ridley. We've talked about you coming down 773 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 1: the road. Let's see if you can take it up 774 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,800 Speaker 1: a notch in these games. A lot of opportunities for 775 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 1: us to evaluate, to see these guys. I'm excited. It's 776 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 1: a lot easier to play horror Alabama though, because you've 777 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 1: got two high safeties the whole time. Because that front seven, Hey, 778 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 1: we got the run. You boys, just you just don't 779 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: give up any big place back there. That's going to 780 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,480 Speaker 1: be an issue. Like that two man coverage that Alabama 781 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 1: has been able to play. It looks like his quarters, 782 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 1: but it's two man too. I say, thees man, the 783 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 1: man underneath undercutting all the other stuff. The best things 784 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:47,400 Speaker 1: that Deshaun Watson throws are slant posts. It's your skinny post. 785 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: Seam rowse with that man coverage is going to take 786 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: away all those layups. So how can he perform when 787 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: he has to fit the ball in the tight windows? 788 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,799 Speaker 1: That would be a thing. But for Alabama's quarterback? Can 789 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,879 Speaker 1: they do it? And can Clemson stand up to both? Scarborough? Yeah, 790 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: he has to be the factor. Yeah, no question. That's 791 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: a big man. Now, all right, Buck, it's gonna be fun. 792 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to, uh to watching that game when 793 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: we next get together next week. I think this is 794 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 1: it for us this week. Next week we'll recap these 795 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 1: wild card games and we'll have, uh, we'll have some 796 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 1: reaction to what took place in the National title game. 797 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: Should be fun, cool, cool.
