I'm Mike Keith and 6 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 1: look who's here, sorrow friend Charles Davis. It's game week. 7 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,520 Speaker 1: It's time for Charles Davis. Charles Davis and Paul Burtmeister 8 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: will call Titans at Bears this Saturday noon Central Time 9 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,520 Speaker 1: from Soldier Field. Are you ready to call a game? 10 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:45,559 Speaker 2: Oh, We're very much ready to call a game. But 11 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 2: I do have to ask the home team gets to 12 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 2: decide kickoff times. Correct, It's kind of yes, yes, visitor 13 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 2: have to assent to it or what have you. 14 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I would think they probably have to agree. 15 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 3: I think there's I'm sure there is a conversation at 16 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 3: some point, but I think that the home team gets 17 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 3: to kind of start the conversation. 18 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: And if they said the game has to be at noon, 19 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: I don't think there's anything the Titans could have done 20 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 1: about it. It's just generally the two coaches will discuss. Yeah, 21 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,400 Speaker 1: a little bit what do you think about the noon 22 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: start this Saturday? 23 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 2: Hate it? 24 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 1: Hate it, really hate it. 25 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 2: It's August twelve, right, it's three thousand and twenty seven 26 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 2: degrees outside. Yeah it is too, it's Chicago. Yeah, you know, 27 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 2: it's not so much the booth itself. It's just it's open. 28 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,759 Speaker 2: So whatever it is outside, it is in the booth. 29 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 2: Well yeah, I mean it will be frush too, Yeah, 30 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,919 Speaker 2: the same thing, but we get home at a decent 31 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: out that okay, so there's a trade off on it. 32 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: But I will say this, I don't like afternoon kickoffs 33 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 2: in preseason because of the fans. Well that's for the fans. 34 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 2: I just can't imagine that being in the stands at 35 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 2: that hour, like we've done it here. Oh yeah, I 36 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 2: remember when coach Malarkey was here and we kicked off 37 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 2: against the pan Anthers at like a two o'clock or 38 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 2: locket too and almost eight million degrees happening, and coach 39 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 2: wanted to get back because I think the season opener 40 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 2: was going to be at that time, so he kicked 41 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 2: off at that time and made the team where they're 42 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 2: all blue. Yeah yeah, yeah, blue was good. 43 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,959 Speaker 3: Well, I mean the Titans have a lot of noon games. Yeah, 44 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 3: this season, So it makes sense from that like routine standpoint, 45 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,519 Speaker 3: getting what time you get up and eat what you're 46 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 3: going to eat, and again coaches, yeah, you'll get to practice. 47 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,519 Speaker 2: I was reading I was reading last night about different 48 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 2: teams in schedule. So we'll get onto something else very quickly. 49 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 2: The Houston Texans right now of seventeen games, sixteen are 50 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 2: the one o'clock Eastern kickoff, the opening, the noon central yeah, 51 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 2: which every coach in the league says that he wants. 52 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 2: Like if they were up to the coaches, they would 53 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 2: kick because Sunday at noon or one o'clock whatever that 54 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 2: is Central or Eastern time every because your routine stays 55 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 2: the same. Yep. But if you're kicking sixteen or seventeen times, 56 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 2: that means they don't think you're very good. That means 57 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 2: you were picking first, right, because that things if they're 58 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 2: not going very well. You want to be like Kansas City. 59 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 2: You want to be like Tennessee. Often. You want to 60 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 2: have a jumble of games because that means people are 61 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 2: interest because that means you're playing the four twenty five. Sure, 62 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 2: you're playing the Monday night, you're playing Thursday, you're playing Sunday, 63 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 2: and the best teams know how to adjust. So anyway, 64 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 2: I went off on that tangent simply because I'm going 65 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 2: to be hot and sweating and I don't think anyone 66 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 2: else out there care. 67 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,799 Speaker 1: But you get to wear a golf shirt, don't you. 68 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, Thank goodness, don't have to wear the suit. And 69 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 2: it's a good looking golf shirt too. I don't know 70 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 2: if we'll be in that blue, but I like that blue. 71 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: We like the tit arloo. 72 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 2: I do love the Titan blue. I think it's just. 73 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: What do you think about the Oilers uniforms that have 74 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: come out. 75 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 2: I'm fired up. I'm fired up for him because I 76 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 2: like history. I like how it gets it gets represented. 77 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 2: I like how it gets remembered. And I like the 78 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 2: fact that people will now truly under stand the Oilers 79 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 2: and the Titans are the history, not the Texans and 80 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 2: the Oilers, because I think people make that mistake very 81 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 2: often and understandably Houston being Houston, but it's the Oilers 82 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: became the Titans and representing that history. Love you Blue. 83 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 2: I might be up there singing, We're the Houston. 84 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 1: You know who originally had that song? 85 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 2: Who had it? 86 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: So that song was sold to different teams, and you 87 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 1: hear it the Chargers to So who had it first 88 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: was Miami where the Miami Dolls real It was not 89 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: just exclusive to one team. Somebody had a pretty good idea. 90 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,119 Speaker 2: I discovered that the Chargers. I had a Chargers Lion 91 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,679 Speaker 2: season opener, and all of a sudden, the Chargers scored, 92 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, I'm here, And then I 93 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 2: found out, oh, okay, it was. It was out there. 94 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,919 Speaker 2: It's kind of like watching what was that cheerleading movie 95 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 2: Bring It On? Guy was selling the selling the routine 96 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 2: all across the valley, same routine. 97 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 1: I had no idea. Syndication is a beautiful thing. All right. 98 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: Charles Davis is with us on the OTP, and he 99 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: is sitting right next to a giant jar of Snickers. 100 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 1: You can have one.

That's just not the norm. 112 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 2: That's that's just one of those I don't know that the 113 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 2: anyone can truly explain how everything went at the end 114 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 2: of last year. You can make explanations. That's just not 115 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 2: the norm for them. This is a Mic Rabel coach team, 116 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 2: a brand new GM and Rant Carthon who I think 117 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 2: that they're going to jibe very well together because of philosophy, 118 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 2: because of belief, how to put things together, and what 119 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 2: they want out of a team. It's a team that 120 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,359 Speaker 2: has a very clear message of who they want to 121 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 2: be and how they want to play. Yet, well, I 122 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 2: think we're going to see some differences then maybe what 123 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 2: we've seen in the past and how Tennessee is going 124 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 2: to play mainly based on personnel, and that's what good 125 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 2: coaching is. What your personnel gives you, that's how you 126 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 2: that dictates how you're going to play. Yeah you have 127 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 2: a philosophy, Yeah you want to play a certain style, 128 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 2: but if the players you have can't play that, and 129 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 2: you insist on playing it, then you're a lousy coach. 130 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 2: The Titans don't have a lousy coach. The Titans have 131 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 2: one of the best coaches in the NFL, and that's 132 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 2: not hyperbole. So they're going to go about it to 133 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 2: fit the personnel. The way Traylan Burks has come back 134 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 2: this this off season, I'm expecting big things from him, 135 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 2: although how much we'll see him in the preseason remains 136 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 2: to be seen. The sign of DeAndre Hopkins, of course, 137 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: is big news, and he looks terrific. The offensive line 138 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 2: was a question mark. It remains a question mark until 139 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 2: we see them play. I don't know exactly what the 140 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 2: coaches planned to do against Chicago this week, but it 141 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 2: wouldn't surprise me if the offensive line, who expected to 142 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 2: be sorted might actually get some work this week. You 143 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 2: know a lot of other offensive guys won't. They may 144 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 2: actually have to get some work because offensive line is 145 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 2: all about continuity. It's all about synchronicity. It's all about 146 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 2: knowing what the person is doing next to you. And 147 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 2: this offensive line hadn't played together. 148 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: Did you eat the whole snickers already? 149 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 5: No? 150 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 3: I'm more of a snacker, so it's like a bite 151 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 3: and then I. 152 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 2: Would yes, but Amy, but does snicker satisfy? 153 00:07:55,160 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 3: Does talking about the Titans offense and how it looks 154 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 3: a little bit different everything? 155 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 2: I know? 156 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 3: Sell anything you want talking about that offense and how 157 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 3: it's looking a little bit different. One of the position 158 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 3: groups that has stuck out to me over the course 159 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 3: of the beginning of training him, and I'd love to 160 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 3: hear what you think about it is that tight ends 161 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 3: group and how they're being utilized a little bit more 162 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 3: and a little bit differently. Has that struck you the 163 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 3: same way that it struck me? 164 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I believe that. Let's see if we're on the 165 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: same eye line for this one, Okay, the same spot. 166 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 2: We've seen this Titans group with tight ends, but there 167 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 2: could be four tight ends on the roster and big, strong, 168 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 2: physical guys. Obviously, do you want people to catch the ball? 169 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 2: We've seen the Delaney Walkers. Austin Hooper was here to 170 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 2: be one of those pass catchers, but we also had 171 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 2: people like Jeff Swain. We just move people, That's what 172 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:51,839 Speaker 2: he was here for, right and they would go three 173 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 2: four deep to get that done. I don't think we're 174 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 2: gonna get more than three on this roster. I don't 175 00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: see that Josh Wiley trying to come along coming back 176 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 2: from injury. My goodness. He's six to seven, but he 177 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 2: moves well. And I will say this, I noticed this 178 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 2: when he was in college. He knows how to bend 179 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:13,199 Speaker 2: and get down into a good hitting position to block people. Oftentimes, 180 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 2: a taller player, the taller tight end, they struggle with 181 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 2: that and they become much more of a positional blocker 182 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 2: where they use their hands and they move you that way. 183 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,719 Speaker 2: He can get down and get some pop and get 184 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 2: some force. I'm really excited about Chicka Cronkwell. I just 185 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 2: think that all the things we liked about him coming 186 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 2: out of college, all things you saw coming into it, 187 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 2: some of the explosive plays. I think they're gonna be 188 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 2: a lot more explosive plays to come. So I think 189 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,599 Speaker 2: there's probably gonna be three. Trayvon Wesco. It's gonna be 190 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 2: interesting because he's large. He is a large human being. 191 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 2: In the old style of offense that we know that 192 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 2: the Titans were going to run, he would have been 193 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 2: an h back, full back, you know, tight end type player. 194 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 2: I'm eager to see how they try and utilize him 195 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 2: and deploy him going now, because he will move people 196 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 2: off the line of scrimmage, that's for sure. 197 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: Charles Davis from CBS Sports and NFL Network and also 198 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: part of the Titans pre season broadcast team with none 199 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,559 Speaker 1: other than Paul Burmeister and Corey Curtis, is our guest 200 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: on the OTP.

Your peripheral vision is very good, sir. 216 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 2: I thought why you were doing the read that was 217 00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 2: a great time to go for it and you just 218 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 2: whole thing. 219 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: But how does that? How do we get a whole 220 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: jar of Snickers and it ends up on the opposite 221 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: side from me? 222 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 5: You want, I. 223 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 1: May have one? Afterwards? 224 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 2: We guess how many are in there? 225 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 3: You can try. I don't know the answer. 226 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: And I put him in three lists. 227 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 3: Is so underrated. Why don't we put Nugat in more stuff? 228 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 3: I mean, this is just really hitting all. 229 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 2: The spots for me. This is so good. 230 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: All right, let's get continue. Yeah, we'll go back to 231 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: the O T P. While Amy enjoys the Snickers. Just 232 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: put this bread. Not only do we have product placements. 233 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 2: It right there, that's caramel. 234 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: Okay, that's good. We put it's really good. 235 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 3: Go ahead, Mike. 236 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: Okay, So we have Charles Davis on we're talking about Nugat, 237 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 1: I mean, which is great. But give the people what they. 238 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: Want to give the people what they very close to 239 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 2: Dedre Hopkins nickname Nuke. 240 00:11:56,080 --> 00:12:02,319 Speaker 1: It's true nice. That's why he's he gets paid. That's right, 241 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: This defense for the Titans, And I mean who we're 242 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: going to see this weekend in Chicago, we don't knows, 243 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: but you look at arden Key and Harold Landry, it's 244 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: almost like they're two free agents. Pass rushing Jeffrey Simmons 245 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 1: and Denico Autry a ziz al Shire at linebacker with 246 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: Monty Rice. The five defensive back package consists of Bayern 247 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 1: and Hooker at the safety spots, Murphy Bunting and Fulton 248 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: on the On the outside, we're seeing McCrary play in 249 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: the nickel, but he can also move back outside. And 250 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: then Elijah Molden is playing the nickel, he's playing safety, 251 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: he's playing his the six defensive back in certain packages. 252 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: So am I getting too excited? 253 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. And the big the big 254 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 2: things I think that have to happen for what we 255 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 2: see is potentially a very good defense. Landry back to form, 256 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 2: being able to rush the passer. I think Autrey Simmons 257 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 2: are going to do what they do. So that's not 258 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 2: a real issue. Okay, that's they're going to be top performers. 259 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 2: But arden Key has got to be what we hoped 260 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 2: he would be coming out of LSU. Okay, because remember 261 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 2: ardend Key coming out of LSU came after Daniel Hunter, okay, 262 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 2: who signed recently with Minnesota member they were head contry. 263 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 2: That was a big deal for Minnesota because Daniel Hunter 264 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 2: came out of LSU with not great production in terms 265 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 2: of numbers, but you saw him and he's like, God, 266 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,680 Speaker 2: this guy's bendy and silky move. The numbers came in 267 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 2: the NFL. I think arden Key was drafted higher as 268 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 2: a result of what we saw from Daniel Hunter. This 269 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 2: is how this league works, as you guys right know, 270 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 2: we see it. Oh well, maybe we can get the 271 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 2: same thing out of this Oh same school. We can 272 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 2: pull this off. His numbers just haven't been there, but 273 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 2: this is a place where the numbers can jump. But 274 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,439 Speaker 2: the biggest thing is if Landry's back being full speed 275 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 2: and arden Key is now providing consistent pressure from the 276 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 2: other side, the bookends take some of the pressure off 277 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 2: of Landry. You can't put all your slide protection that way. 278 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 2: You got to make sure that this guy doesn't get 279 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 2: to the quarterback as well. Huge, huge deal if they're 280 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 2: able to pull it off. Al Shire, the linebacker from 281 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 2: San Francisco. Remember here's the third back of from SISTA. 282 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 2: The other two were pro bowlers. Yeah, Freddie Warner, Fred 283 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 2: Warns an all pro. Drake green Law is a pro bowler. Right, 284 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 2: this guy can play, but he got lost in the shuffle. 285 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 2: Night gets a chance to be a featured performer. And 286 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 2: I really like the secondary. But it all has to 287 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 2: come together with one thing having to happen. Take the 288 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 2: ball away, right, we're going back to We go back 289 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 2: to Cincinnati in the playoffs at home. Sack Joe Burrow 290 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 2: eleven times nine b count because there were two penalties 291 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 2: and never once did the ball come out right. Ever 292 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 2: since that ball game, that's what Tennessee's been the we 293 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 2: got to, got to, we got to. If they get 294 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 2: much more of that, now you're dangerous again. Now you're 295 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 2: doing the things that you need to get the ball 296 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 2: back for the offense. Give them opportunities, extra opportunities, I 297 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 2: should say. 298 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: But it's exciting to see that group of guys out 299 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: of the Yeah. 300 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 2: And I'm really excited about a Loidjah Molden. Let me 301 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 2: tell you why. Okay, you guys probably remember how high 302 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 2: I was on him coming out of college, so we 303 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 2: haven't seen him at that Level's rookie year, he played 304 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 2: pretty well. I think the Cincinnati game hurt him a 305 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 2: little bit. Last year he was hurt, wasn't at the 306 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 2: same level. But the ability of Tennessee to look at 307 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 2: him and say, you know something, must use you in 308 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 2: a variety of roles. I think that works well for him. 309 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 2: His game is based on instincts, being around the football, 310 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 2: anticipating where it's going before it gets there, and it 311 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 2: looked to me like in the two practices I've seen 312 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 2: he's a lot more confident player this year. He is 313 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 2: around the football again, he knows where it's going and 314 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 2: he's there to help make a play. I think that's 315 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 2: a good spot for him to be able to be 316 00:15:56,320 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 2: more of a rover, safety, nickel, you know, corn you 317 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 2: want to put him. I think that's a good spot 318 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 2: for him. 319 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 3: That secondary as a whole. Throughout the beginning of training 320 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 3: camp has really looked like they've had more confidence just 321 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 3: almost as a unit. They're playing harder, they're playing faster, 322 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 3: they're moving around, and it seems like there's a level 323 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 3: of confidence. Even though for the most part it's a 324 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 3: fairly young group of guys, but they seem like they 325 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 3: have elevated their game a little bit to meet some 326 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 3: of the challenges that maybe they were experiencing at the 327 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 3: end of the twenty two season, and a lot of 328 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 3: that was just due to injury. 329 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would agree with that. I would agree with that. 330 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 2: I would think that Chris Harris coming in is a 331 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 2: big deal for them as a new defensive backs coach. 332 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 2: Different eyes, different voice, different way of doing things, but 333 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 2: understand what they do well. Give them some confidence. I 334 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 2: know this is a team that really likes guys who 335 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 2: have something to prove. Sean Murphy Bunting would sure like 336 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 2: to get back to that level of the Super Bowl 337 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 2: in Tampa where he was a monster in the playoffs 338 00:16:58,080 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 2: and into the super Bowl. He wants to get back 339 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 2: can play at that level. Christian Fulton feels like people 340 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 2: have continue to doubt him. He looks bigger, stronger, more 341 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 2: explosive out on the corner. Kevin Byard, we all know 342 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 2: about the off season contract this and that he's where 343 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 2: he wants to be. But I'm sure he'd like to say, well, 344 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,439 Speaker 2: you know something, I'm pretty valuable here. Plus he's the 345 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 2: guy who leads that secondary and Moni Hooker's just steady. 346 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 2: I like this team. I like him a lot, and 347 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 2: I like the way that they play with the cohesion. 348 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 2: But the way Kevin Byard handled the offseason let you 349 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 2: know that there's a maturity back there that you're covered with. 350 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 2: And I think that he feels unlike I would go 351 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 2: back to what twenty nineteen, twenty twenty, or maybe he 352 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 2: won't admit it, and he shouldn't, but he might not 353 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 2: have trusted everyone to do their jobs the way they 354 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 2: were supposed. He was trying to do too, and he 355 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 2: was trying to do everyone else's in addition to his own. 356 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 2: He didn't have to do that anymore. He hadn't had 357 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 2: to do that the last couple of seasons, and he's 358 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,120 Speaker 2: back being Kevin Byered again. 359 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: Interesting point. I want you to go back to talk 360 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: about Chris Harris for a second. Comes over from Washing 361 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,400 Speaker 1: big time. Get for the defensive staff, which didn't have 362 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:09,199 Speaker 1: the massive shakeup the offensive staff did. But Mike Rabel 363 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 1: felt like he needed to change the voice in the secondary. 364 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: What are they getting in Chris Harris? 365 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 2: They're getting guy? Look, Enthusiasm is always the first thing 366 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 2: we always say, that's such a cliche, enthusiasm, right, So 367 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 2: that's enthusiasm that's off the charts, right, there's no way 368 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 2: you can you can rain that part in. But you're 369 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:32,440 Speaker 2: also getting a guy that has trained eyes can look 370 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 2: at what he's saying and now see these players in 371 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 2: a different light because they've been judged by other people 372 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 2: who may have seen them day in day out. What's 373 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 2: the old expression for us for the trees, right, we 374 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 2: can get lost in there a little bit. I know 375 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 2: what he can do. I know what he can do, 376 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,719 Speaker 2: and sometimes you just see that, even if it's not 377 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,879 Speaker 2: actually happening. And I'm not saying that's what happened with 378 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 2: the previous coach, but sometimes that can happen with him. 379 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 2: Oh well, I see you this way, I see you 380 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 2: this way, I see this improvement need. I see that 381 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 2: improvement needed. I always remember the famous story when Mike 382 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 2: Tomlin was a young secondary coach and he goes to 383 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay and he takes you know, he takes over there. 384 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 2: He's pretty young in the whole deal, and he calls 385 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 2: John Lynch in and says, hey, here's something I've been 386 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 2: watching you on tape. Here's some things I want you 387 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 2: to work on, and give him a list of things, 388 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 2: and John Lynch kind of walked at us, who's this guy, 389 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 2: John Lynch, was an All Pro Pro Bowl eventual Hall 390 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 2: of Fame safety just getting to know this young defensive 391 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:32,640 Speaker 2: backs coach and he's admitted, you know, god, he kind 392 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 2: of had it dialed in, and I, once I got 393 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 2: my ego out of the way, here we go, and 394 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 2: he got better. I'm not saying that's what Chris Harris 395 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 2: is doing, but I think there are some elements of 396 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:44,679 Speaker 2: that where he can come in and say, listen, you 397 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 2: don't know me, I don't know you, but watching your 398 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 2: play clinically without us knowing each other, this is what 399 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 2: I see. And now if those guys are receptive, you 400 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:53,679 Speaker 2: can get better at it. 401 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: Oh but a Titan's checking account from Pinnacle with at 402 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 1: least one hundred dollars in a recurring direct deposit by 403 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: all against the eighteenth and you could get two tickets 404 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 1: to five Titans home games. 405 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 2: It's pretty good. 406 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: Or you could steal another Snickers like Charles Davis is 407 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: doing right now. He's being so gentle with the lid too. 408 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: It's really just details at Titansbanking dot com. That's Titansbanking 409 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: dot Com checking from Pinnacle play Hard Bank Easy member 410 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: FBI CE Charles Davis is with us. 411 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 2: Who's your first game in c with CBS, Yes, CBS 412 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 2: Cincinnati at Cleveland. 413 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: How about that? What if I told you Cleveland's my 414 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 1: surprise team. 415 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 2: I would I would, I would not be surprised. 416 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 1: I'm nice how you did that, only. 417 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 2: Because I feel the same way there it is. I 418 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,199 Speaker 2: feel the same way. It's a better roster than what 419 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,199 Speaker 2: people know. Last year should be a mulligan year for 420 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 2: them because their season was over as soon as Deshaun 421 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,879 Speaker 2: Watson's suspension was announced, as soon as they said eleven games, 422 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,119 Speaker 2: we're done here. No offense at Jacobe Brissett. But the 423 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 2: season went right there. You were kind of done because 424 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 2: it wasn't a six game suspension where you say, okay, 425 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,679 Speaker 2: we hold the four, get out of here, three and 426 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 2: three and see if we get our quarterback back and go. 427 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 2: You talk about eleven games. 428 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 1: It was over. Yeah. And the thing about an NFL 429 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 1: suspension that some forget. 430 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 2: Is you're gone. 431 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: You're gone, you're not building, you're not practicing, you're not 432 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 1: in contact with the team in any way, shape or form. 433 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: And so he's coming in having not played in two years. 434 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: And I know he played in the preseason, but that 435 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 1: doesn't count. That doesn't count. But he's cold, yes, and 436 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 1: he looked cold. And then you started to see a 437 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: couple of the moments. Okay, it's still in there. 438 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's still They're good on defense, really good on defense. 439 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 2: And they change coordinators. Now you have Jim Schwartz, So 440 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 2: now Miles Garrett, who is a beast to begin with. 441 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 2: Then they go out and make a deal and gains 442 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 2: a Darius Harris. Okay, is it no? This a Darius Smith? 443 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 2: Excuse me? Is a Darius Smith? A terrific pass rusher 444 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,439 Speaker 2: in Green Bay and Minnesota n comes to Cleveland. Guess what? 445 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 2: Miles Garrett now has a bookend. How loly they thought 446 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 2: they were getting that with Gevian Clowney. They really didn't 447 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:11,159 Speaker 2: get exactly what they wanted. And Harris gonna be Smith 448 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 2: has the great ability to work inside in those nickel 449 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 2: and sub packages. He'll rush over the guards and use 450 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 2: his quickness that way. Jim Schwartz coach defenses. Do one 451 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,160 Speaker 2: thing really well. They rushed the pass, he beat it up, 452 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 2: and how does he ask them to do it? Front 453 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 2: four pressure? He wants his back seven to be able 454 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 2: to cover do other things. He's not a big blitzer. 455 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 2: He's not. All the Titans fans know. He's been here 456 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 2: as a consultant, He's been here as a tremendous defensive coordinator. 457 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 2: He still got it Philadelphia, Well, we saw it last 458 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 2: year in the Super Bowl as remnants of Jim Schwartz 459 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 2: watching him go. Although they added a little more pressure 460 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 2: from the backers. But if he can get that front 461 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 2: four playing at that level, the back seven has great talent. 462 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 2: That roster is way better than what people think offense. Defense. 463 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 2: And by the way, they didn't have a draft pick 464 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 2: until the third round. Go back on the their draft 465 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 2: last year and tell me you weren't impressed. I think 466 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 2: that Andrew Berry their GM does a great job. People 467 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 2: are talking about. Is Kevin Stefanski in the hot seed 468 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 2: as the head coach? 469 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 3: I don't think so. 470 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think they good coach. 471 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 2: I think again, from the outside maybe, but last year's 472 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 2: a mulligan year. You're coaching a team that's your quarterback 473 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 2: that you paid all that money for, isn't there. I 474 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 2: think they've got a chance to be a surprise team, 475 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 2: but they will opt approved. I blue believe three of 476 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 2: their first four games are within their own division. 477 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: Well, and the one that's not Tennessee in week three. 478 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: We go there in week three and I think it's 479 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: a very I mean, you look at us. We go 480 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: to New Orleans, and I mean, Derek Carr is a quarterback. 481 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 1: We know him, we've played against him, But what are they. 482 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 2: Going to look like? 483 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 4: They're trying to figure that out, Okay, And so then 484 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 4: in week two the Chargers come here and they're really 485 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 4: really good, and after how they sort of went down 486 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 4: the tubes in Jacksonville last year, you've got to figure 487 00:23:58,280 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 4: they're going to be motivated. 488 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: They only have the basketball team filled with wide receivers. 489 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 2: Which is a Charger staple has been for the last 490 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 2: ten years with receivers. 491 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: And then we go to we go to Cleveland, and 492 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: then you know, Kansas. Then Cincinnati comes here on October first. 493 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: So tough first four for the tight it really is. 494 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 2: And it's interesting You've got Cleveland Cincinnati so early, and 495 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 2: the AFC North. From what I've seen in their schedules, 496 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 2: they're playing a lot of their division games early in 497 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:32,479 Speaker 2: the season against each other. So trying to win your 498 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,479 Speaker 2: own division all focus on division games. How will they 499 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 2: react outside of the division. That's gonna be fun to 500 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 2: watch and see how it goes. Look, if you're an 501 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 2: NFL fan, I think we all drew a sigh of 502 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 2: relief when we saw that Joe Burrow, when they said 503 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 2: calf strain as opposed to what we thought when we 504 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 2: saw the video, because when we first saw the video, 505 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 2: look like Achilles. They look like at Achilles. You know, 506 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 2: people were thinking acl at first, but we realized, okay, ooh, 507 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,439 Speaker 2: that just looks bad. Thank goodness. It's a calf strain 508 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 2: all though, if you don't handle it right, it can 509 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 2: linger all year long. But he should be okay. And 510 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 2: as a football fan, I'm excited about that because you 511 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 2: want to see the better players. 512 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 1: Absolutely, Charles. 513 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 3: As you are getting ready for a football season, other 514 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 3: than preparing for obviously the Tennessee Titans games, which you 515 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 3: will be a part of for the entire preseason, which 516 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 3: we love, how do you kind of hone in because 517 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 3: you do so many different games and there's so much 518 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:27,199 Speaker 3: NFL news. 519 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 2: The National Football. 520 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 3: League is a big place and there's a lot going on. 521 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 3: How do you know what to focus your brain on? 522 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 3: How do you even process that? 523 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,119 Speaker 2: It's a great question. Amy I'm not sure that I 524 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 2: have the true answer for it. What I try to 525 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 2: do is just take week to week and focus in 526 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 2: that way.

But it's the 533 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 2: only way I can do it, because otherwise I'm going 534 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 2: to conflate things. I know people who are able to 535 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 2: study and do extras along the way, Like if you 536 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 2: know your schedule, they'll work on the first three games. 537 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 2: I still only work on my season open.

I have a little bit of Winny 549 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 2: the pooh Brain now bear of little brain. Well, little 550 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 2: I have needs to be focused on whatever is in 551 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 2: front of me right at that moment. 552 00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 1: Your broadcast partner, Iron Eagle, one hundred different things going 553 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 1: on to the how does he do it? 554 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 2: I would love to know, And what I would really 555 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 2: like to do is follow him around for about two 556 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 2: weeks during all that time, but I don't know if 557 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 2: I could keep up because he's doing an NBA game, 558 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 2: a National game, he's doing an NBA Brooklyn Nets game, 559 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 2: he's doing a CBS NFL game, and then he's back 560 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 2: to another one, and it's amazing, absolutely amazing. He has 561 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 2: the ability and the better ones that we know can 562 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 2: do it. I would say we'd say that about the 563 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,880 Speaker 2: best played by play people we know compartmentalize and then 564 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 2: bring it all out. I tell you one of the people, 565 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 2: Kenny Albert. If you if you're spending time with Kenny. 566 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: Just a little just to say hello. 567 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 2: Kenny's a cyborg. Okay, there's no if, sands or butts 568 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 2: about it. The late great Tony Sira Goosa had worked 569 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 2: with Kenny all those years. Moose Goose and Kenny right, 570 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,439 Speaker 2: that great team that they had. And I remember I 571 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 2: was working with Goose on the one season we worked together, 572 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 2: and he looked at me one day and he goes 573 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,719 Speaker 2: to Charles, you know something, You're pretty good on this 574 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 2: football thing. You know a lot of stuff, he said, 575 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 2: But you know something, you're not Kenny Albert. And I 576 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,679 Speaker 2: was like, okay, I'm not trying to compete with you 577 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 2: because Kenny's a cyborg and so okay, cool, that's great 578 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 2: Goose right. So I ended up working with Kenny. Now 579 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:27,119 Speaker 2: this is stuck in my head. I'm a competitor. I 580 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 2: was like, okay, we're gonna tech. We're gonna find this out, 581 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 2: aren't we. We were sitting in our room, you know 582 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,360 Speaker 2: a lot of times you have a room that you're 583 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 2: studying in at the hotel, and baseball was on his 584 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 2: baseball playoffs and the guy gets hit by a pitch 585 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 2: and he gets hit in the foot, and they determined 586 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 2: to get the first base, and so I pipe up 587 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 2: with the old well, you know, back in the old days, 588 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 2: they would have grabbed the ball and look to see 589 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 2: if their shoe polish on it, because in the old days, 590 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 2: everyone wore black shoes, and oftentimes if God would say 591 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 2: I got hit and he said you didn't get hit, 592 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 2: they grabbed the ball. Oh there's smudge of shoe polish 593 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 2: first base. There you go. And so I thought, yeah, 594 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 2: that's pretty good right through that one out there, and 595 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 2: Kenny goes, oh, yeah, it's like the fifty one series 596 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 2: with the Giants when Dusty Rhodes got hit by a 597 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 2: pitch and it changed the whole courset series and the 598 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 2: whole thing. And I knew this story, but he rolled 599 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:17,719 Speaker 2: it out so easily. It's like, oh, so I grabbed 600 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 2: my stuff packed up night and I went up to 601 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 2: my room and I stared at the ceiling all night, 602 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 2: and now one goose, You're right, Kenny Albert's the Cybory. 603 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 2: He's amazing. I mean, we did we did a Green Bay, 604 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 2: New Orleans game and something really crazy happened. I can't 605 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 2: remember exactly what it was, something that only happened once 606 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 2: in two blue moons, and we ended up documenting it 607 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 2: in the whole thing, and we were, you know, getting 608 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,719 Speaker 2: information on it, Baba, and the whole thing gets put together. 609 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 2: We rolled it out, Kenny, and I do it, you know, 610 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, great, there's my small contribution. Kenny's got it. 611 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 2: And then at the end Kenny goes into an extra 612 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 2: and then on top of it, the last time somebody 613 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 2: ate with the last letter Z played in the game, 614 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 2: I mean just boom and it all tied in perfectly. 615 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 2: Did that And he does that and I punched into 616 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 2: the truck.
