1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: Late fifteen to ten touchdown.

2
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 2: What's up? Guys?

3
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 3: Welcome into a brand new episode of Chargers Weekly, as always,

4
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 3: joined by the voice of the Chargers, Matt Muddy Smith.

5
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 2: Today we're taping this on a Thursday.

6
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,479
Speaker 3: I think everybody's in camp now, at least for a

7
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 3: practice money, but it feels like an eternity for the Chargers.

8
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 2: One full week of training camp in the books.

9
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, we're we're less than a

10
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 4: week out from taking off for campon you know, it'll

11
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 4: be on a bird on Wednesday, you know, six days

12
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 4: from now and playing a game about I.

13
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:43,600
Speaker 1: Don't know what.

14
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 4: Eight hours from a week and eight hours away, we'll

15
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 4: have the Hall of Fame game. And with the way

16
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 4: a lot of these young players have managed to raise

17
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 4: their hand here in this early portion of camp, it's

18
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 4: I wouldn't normally get too excited about a Hall of

19
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 4: Fame game, but I think you got a backup quarterback

20
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 4: competition that I find incredibly interesting, especially knowing how Greg

21
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 4: Roman would probably like to use Trey Lance. That's going

22
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 4: to be fun with he and Heinike, and I think

23
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 4: DJ's throwing the ball the best out of the three

24
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 4: of them, So that's going to be great. And obviously

25
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 4: Chris with these rookie wide receivers who have really put

26
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 4: on a show. I mean KLS was doing some serious

27
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 4: damage yesterday and Trey Harris has been awfully exciting too.

28
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, that trio too.

29
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 3: I'll put a Rodde Gatzen in there too. Just the

30
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 3: future of that Chargers wide receiver group and pass catchers,

31
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 3: we'll get into that.

32
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 2: But you know, Mondy the lead this week and.

33
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 3: Appropriately it was the day before the Chargers went down

34
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 3: to San Diego was Philip Rivers officially retiring as a Charger.

35
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 3: And if you watched that five minute video you probably

36
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 3: got a tear in your eye watching Philip reminisce about

37
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 3: his entire.

38
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: Career with the Chargers. I know you had an opportunity

39
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 2: to call just some.

40
00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 3: Really awesome games for three years up in La. Reaction

41
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 3: to seeing Phillip's video and just him officially retiring from

42
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 3: the NFL as.

43
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: A charger, yeah, little bummed.

44
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 4: I was hopeful that we'd get a grandpa out there

45
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 4: slinging the rock, you know, somewhere. That would have been

46
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 4: awfully exciting. Now that he's a grandfather and a father

47
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 4: to a toddler to an infant, I should say that

48
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 4: would have been exciting. Is that your Is that the

49
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 4: new one? No, that's my grandson. He's six months older

50
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 4: than my son. Like that would have been awesome.

51
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 3: He was talking to Gruden about how his grandson and

52
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 3: his youngest son are going to throw the ball to

53
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:32,919
Speaker 3: each other in high school, but they're like fifteen, sixteen

54
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 3: years old.

55
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 4: It's crazy. Love Philip everybody does, anyone that's been around him,

56
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 4: you know. I guess Bronco fans and Raider fans may

57
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 4: feel differently, but for the most part, you know, people

58
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 4: that love football love Philip Rivers And just having been

59
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 4: so fortunate to have a handful of conversations with him

60
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,519
Speaker 4: when we were flying back and we would chat in

61
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 4: the galley after games, just to know his passion for

62
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 4: high school football. That's all we would talk about, to

63
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 4: be honest, and you know, and to know that that's

64
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 4: what he's in now, I think is exciting for me.

65
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 4: I know some people may look at it like, is

66
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,799
Speaker 4: he really going to know that's his true passion is

67
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 4: high school football?

68
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: That's all he would want to talk about.

69
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 4: So I'm happy for him that he's not someone that's

70
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:19,640
Speaker 4: got to figure out what am I going to do

71
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 4: with the rest of my life. I'm in my late

72
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 4: thirties and I'm no longer, you know, in the career

73
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 4: that I, you know, signed up for when I got

74
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 4: out of college.

75
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: So he's going to be fine.

76
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 4: He's going to end up being one of the greatest

77
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 4: high school football coaches in the history of the state

78
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 4: of Alabama, and I'm happy for him. I'll just quickly

79
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 4: throw this out because I dug it up. He Look,

80
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 4: he's a Hall of Famer man. I don't care what

81
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 4: anybody says.

82
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 2: He's here's no doubt he's a Hall of Famer.

83
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you so. Here's Philip Rivers. He is

84
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 4: sixth in yards, eighth and completions, sixth and touchdowns, thirteenth

85
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 4: in yards per game. So you know it's not just

86
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 4: an aggregate of all the games he play because he

87
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 4: played so long. Eighteenth and rating a true iron man

88
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:08,119
Speaker 4: who played nearly three hundred consecutive games, including a playoff

89
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 4: game on a torn acl from five days prior seven

90
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 4: days prior. You know Manning Eli Manning is eleventh in yards,

91
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 4: eleventh in completions, eleventh in touchdowns. Twenty second and yards

92
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 4: per game sixty sixth in quarterback rating. You know, and

93
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 4: they're from the same draft class. Rivers out passes, you know,

94
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 4: surpasses him in every and look, Eli had the benefit

95
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 4: of a dominant defense to help him win those two

96
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 4: super Bowls and he didn't have to go. You know,

97
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 4: it's nothing against him. He played great in those playoff runs.

98
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 4: But I think you've kind of got to be able

99
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 4: to balance those two things out. It's a team game.

100
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,799
Speaker 4: He's ahead of Matt Ryan in every category. He's ahead

101
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 4: of Kurt Warner in every single category. Like so to me,

102
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 4: if you're talking about the greatest quarterback of his era,

103
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 4: and obviously he played in the top Brady Peyton, Manniarra.

104
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 4: So now you're trying to figure out what's that next tier,

105
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 4: and that makes it hard for guys like Philip Rivers.

106
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 4: My whole thing is just I would want to tell

107
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 4: his story if I'm in Canton. I want to tell

108
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 4: the story of a guy that wanted to go to Alabama,

109
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 4: but they tried to make him a tight end. So

110
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 4: he went to NC State and broke all the records

111
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 4: there and then came into the NFL and was one

112
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,359
Speaker 4: of the fiercest competitors, one of the most beloved teammates,

113
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 4: had this weird throwing style, Like I played an AFC

114
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 4: Championship game on a fully torn acl the iron Man.

115
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 4: That's a Hall of Fame career. That's a Hall of

116
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 4: Fame story.

117
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:38,599
Speaker 1: That's that's you know.

118
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 4: It's like, I do the I know I'm rambling here.

119
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 4: I'll just I do the pod with Lorenzo, And I'm like,

120
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 4: why would you not want Lorenzo Neil in the Hall

121
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 4: of Fame to talk about how important fullbacks were in

122
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,279
Speaker 4: this era of football? And here's a guy that managed

123
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 4: to play seventeen years as a human bulldozer and that's all.

124
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: He was asked to do.

125
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 4: Hey, you're going to run out there and you are

126
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 4: going to collide with men that are as large, if

127
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 4: not larger than you.

128
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: Like, those are the stories you want to tell.

129
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with you with with Lorenzo Neil. First

130
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 3: of all, he should be in the Hall of Fame.

131
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 3: And it kind of reminds me of the conversation I've

132
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 3: always had growing up in Washington with Brian Mitchell. Like

133
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 3: Brian Mitchell was Devin Hester Before Devin Hester.

134
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 2: He got to set the standard.

135
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 3: He has more total yards toto is when you combine

136
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 3: special team yards than Jerry Rice. So like Brian Mitchell

137
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 3: should be in the Hall of Fame, Lorenzo and Neil

138
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 3: should be in the Hall of Fame. And I just

139
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 3: think it's I don't know when it's gonna be. I

140
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 3: don't know if it's gonna be first ballot. I don't

141
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 3: know if it's gonna be second or third. But but

142
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 3: Philip will be wearing a gold jacket. I don't think

143
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 3: there's any question about that. It's fitting with with Antonio

144
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 3: Gates going in next week and you know LT being

145
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 3: in Philip, the passion that he has for football. I

146
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 3: don't know if you if it rivals anybody. I mean,

147
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 3: Peyton Manning. We know how much these guys love the game,

148
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 3: but just the raw emotion from that video and just

149
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 3: how he wears his.

150
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 2: Heart on his sleeve going out there.

151
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 3: The three years that you got to call games, we've

152
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 3: talked about the twenty eighteen Kansas City game as maybe

153
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 3: being the most epic.

154
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 2: Are there any other calls that stick out to you?

155
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 3: Money from the time that you were calling charge of

156
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 3: games in twenty seventeen, on from Philip Rivers.

157
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, look, that's my favorite call I've ever

158
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 4: had is the two point conversion to Mike, just because

159
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 4: of the emotion, the rivalry, the prime time nature of

160
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 4: the game, the comeback. Obviously there was that throat to

161
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 4: Travis Benjamin on in that game as well. That was

162
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 4: a great one. The Baltimore wild Card game was great.

163
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 4: Phil was fired up, man, he was not happy.

164
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: First.

165
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, the first down was incredible to call that, but

166
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 4: he was pretty upset with how the talking heads were

167
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 4: talking about the team. And I think you saw it,

168
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 4: and that was pretty fun to know kind of where

169
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 4: his headspace was and where the team's headspace was going

170
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 4: into that game, and to see him put it on

171
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 4: the Ravens was was a great one. That the toss,

172
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 4: you know, I felt like I was sort of cheating,

173
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 4: like somebody had been pumping the slot full of dollars

174
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 4: and I happened to come in after they spent you know,

175
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 4: four hours there and got the jackpot. I was able

176
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 4: to call the you know, the the record breaking catch

177
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 4: by Antonio Gates, you know, thrown by Philip who pretty

178
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 4: much got him nearly all of his touchdown tosses that

179
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 4: was pretty special.

180
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 2: There was man, Pittsburgh Sunday Night.

181
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 4: Pittsburgh Sunday Night in Pittsburgh was was incredible, very fortunate.

182
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 1: Man.

183
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 4: Just how about the Cardinals game when he went what

184
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 4: was it twenty twenty five, twenty six?

185
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: Is that what? It was?

186
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 2: Straight completion?

187
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 4: It was he had won incompletion and I think twenty

188
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 4: three straight. So that was special to be to be

189
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 4: around to to say, hey, this guy's got a lot

190
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 4: of signature moments that you could put on you know

191
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 4: that that would tell the story. But again, it's like

192
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 4: played in an air with Brady Manning, Roethlisberger, these guys

193
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 4: with Aaron Rodgers, all guys that won Super Bowls and

194
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 4: or made Super Bowls. In the case of Matt Ryan,

195
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,959
Speaker 4: it's like, I just hope that that's not held against him,

196
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 4: that you can do the Dan Marino thing and and

197
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 4: tell the story by you know, the in totality career numbers,

198
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 4: the competitiveness, the you know, just the regular season accomplishments

199
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 4: fourteen and two and you know, like those sort of

200
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 4: stories I think should should be viable beyond just did

201
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 4: he win a Super Bowl? Ring did he go to

202
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 4: the Super Like there's There's so much more to it

203
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 4: than that.

204
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 3: You alluded to it with with the ACL but just

205
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 3: the the iron Man component of it all, just just

206
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 3: playing it.

207
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 2: Every game played every game, you know, he was.

208
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 3: He was the Cal Ripken of the Chargers and you

209
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 3: could always count on every single year he gave you

210
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 3: a chance to win in the fourth quarter if you

211
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 3: were close. So it was just it was just good

212
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 3: to see him, good to see him talk. It kind

213
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 3: of just you know, brought brought us back to five

214
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 3: years ago when he had that final game in Kansas

215
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 3: City and that just that raw motion before he went

216
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 3: to Indy. But I'm sure he'll be there next week

217
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,839
Speaker 3: for for Antonio Gates, and you know, I think he'll

218
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:18,119
Speaker 3: be right behind him money.

219
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: I hope.

220
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 4: So you know, we certainly know he will be in

221
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:22,520

222
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 4: get Rodney Harrison, and I would be floored. I wouldn't

223
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 4: even be floored. I mean, it's it's gonna happen. He'll

247
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:31,839
Speaker 4: grin and grip with a lot of them. Spent a

248
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 4: lot of time just kind of walking through the concourse

249
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:39,559
Speaker 4: area and was chatting with a handful of them. Well,

250
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,880

00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 4: players to hear them chatting with each other.

254
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 1: But you know, I'm a play by play guy.

255
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 4: I'm used to a certain vantage point of how I

256
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 4: like to see and process and absorb the action. So

257
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 4: they had a little press box there that I was

258
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:00,599
Speaker 4: able to kind of I have a seat at the

259
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,560

00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 4: He had his friend James with him, and then Bobbin

288
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 4: was the other guy that I remember meeting who had

289
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 4: his brand spanking new Sunshine gold Derwin James Jersey. So

290
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 4: you know, we talked about the navies and do people

291
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 4: like the goals? There were you know, there was Bobbin

292
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 4: with his brand new number three, so yeah, some people

293
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 4: do like the goals.

294
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: It was great.

295
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 4: I know we're going to get into practice, but just

296
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 4: in terms of the atmosphere, a lot of kids, a

297
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 4: lot of people cashing in with that. With the merch

298
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 4: tent they had set up, I saw a lot of people,

299
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 4: you know, pulling brand new navies. You know, saw someone

300
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,559
Speaker 4: with a really good looking I don't know how much

301
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,320
Speaker 4: it cost him, man, but it was the fully stitched,

302
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 4: heavy you know, the embroidered numbers Lad mcconkee number fifteen

303
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 4: in Navy, and it.

304
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 2: Was a heck of an investment.

305
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 1: That's a good Yes, you're right, hey.

306
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 4: One year apparently is enough for that dude that he

307
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 4: saw enough from Lad that that's the number he wants

308
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 4: to wear for the next fifteen years. So may that

309
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 4: be the case. But a lot of it just just

310
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:08,160

311
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 4: and those fans and just how kind they were to me,

312
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 4: and how how kind they were about how much they

00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 4: liked the podcast. So just know, yeah, we look, I

314
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 4: get it. I know there's there's an issue, but you know,

315
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 4: San Diego versus LA. It's been that way since I've

316
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 4: lived here for thirty four years now. I love San Diego.

317
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 4: It's one of my favorite cities. I love everything about it.

318
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 4: I drove down early, Chris, I got up at four thirty.

319
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 4: I had Santa No fray and surf for three hours

320
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 4: till nine. From six to nine, I stopped at my

321
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 4: buddy to see my friend Heat, the Charger season ticket

322
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 4: holder who runs JS Surf Industries. They make incredible surfboards.

323
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 4: That's an ocean side. So had a breakfast sandwich an

324
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 4: ocean side at cup It was fantastic. Went down to

325
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 4: USD incredible campus.

326
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: Loved it.

327
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 4: Left My buddy Robbie lives in Sant clem Many, hit

328
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 4: up tak Aria Luna, had a giant burrito and ate

329
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 4: way too much of it.

330
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: I was like, God, I love it down here.

331
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 2: Just funny, it.

332
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 3: Doesn't It doesn't shock me in the least that you

333
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 3: took advantage of every single second in San Diego, from

334
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 3: surfing to eating to charge with practice.

335
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: Brother, I love it, man, I just I love it.

336
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 4: Just know if you hate me and you hate La,

337
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 4: that's totally fine. But just know I freaking love it

338
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 4: down there, man, that I it's It's one of my

339
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 4: favorite places on earth, that whole area.

340
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 3: Two days down there, Tuesday was open to military and

341
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 3: that was a padded practice, if I'm not mistaken. Wednesday

342
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 3: was not a padded practice. But so fireworks and you

343
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 3: know we mentioned KLS the first day of camp. You

344
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 3: know you saw Herbert kind of target him multiple times.

345
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 3: I think he got a touchdown to seven on sevens

346
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 3: puts on another show, and I was in Washington when

347
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 3: Brandon Lloyd was in Washington, and when when Greg Roman

348
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 3: made that comparison, I just I found it fascinating because

349
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 3: Brandon Lloyd made these crazy he catches and he had just.

350
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 2: He was able to adjust to the ball.

351
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 3: And the two big plays that Kale has had yesterday,

352
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 3: I was just like, Okay, there's that comparison that great

353
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 3: Roman was referring to, and it just seems like of

354
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 3: all the rookies, really, KALs has popped maybe the most.

355
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 1: I'll tell you it's when he said it. I was

356
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:25,479
Speaker 1: like Brandon Lloyd. I was like, man, Brandon Lloyd was physical.

357
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 4: He was just like a contested catch and that's just

358
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 4: not what KALs put on tape, you know, at Penn

359
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 4: State in Auburn. So but it just goes to show

360
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 4: you it trusts the football guy, because then you go

361
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 4: out there yesterday and you're like, oh, there it is.

362
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 4: You know, Trey under threw one. He's you know, hip

363
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 4: to hit with Dean Leonard. He's able to track it

364
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 4: while he's running full speed down the field, A just leap,

365
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 4: get in front of Dean and you know, secure that

366
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 4: ball for a forty yard gain and then the other

367
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 4: one when he was again hip to hip with Cam

368
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 4: Hard and we know how physical Cam Hart is and

369
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 4: how good he is and demand and those sort of

370
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 4: contested catch situations and tracks the ball, sees the ball,

371
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 4: has to turn, catch the ball, survive the ground. And

372
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 4: it was I was like, okay, I mean I don't

373
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,360
Speaker 4: like Twitter. I rarely go on Twitter, and I felt

374
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 4: the need to post something on Twitter. I was like, God,

375
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 4: this dude is freaking putting on a show right now.

376
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 4: It's like, all it's basically what you would have expected

377
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,159
Speaker 4: to see from Mike Williams, Like if Mike, if Mike

378
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,159
Speaker 4: Dub was out there, those are the plays that I

379
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,239
Speaker 4: would have been like, oh, yeah, that's that's what Mike

380
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 4: Dub does. You know, he goes up and adjusts and

381
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 4: is able to track the ball. So it was impressive,

382
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 4: especially for someone that was out of OTAs, that was

383
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 4: out of Mini camp, was just working off for the side,

384
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,880
Speaker 4: and I think we were all like, this guy's falling behind.

385
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 4: Like I'm thinking about you know, former mid to late

386
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 4: round receiver picks. You know, just last year Cornelius Johnson

387
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 4: who ends up getting cut, Brandon Rice who doesn't really

388
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 4: make much of an imp act. Shoot, what was our

389
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 4: guy from Ohio State that set the bucket?

390
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 2: J Hill?

391
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, kJ Hill, Joe Reid, Like we've had so many

392
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 4: of these Day three guys that.

393
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: Don't really you know. Terrell Williams.

394
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 4: I think he was undrafted if I remember, right, So

395
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,399
Speaker 4: to see that dude like, okay, here we go, you know,

396
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 4: here we go. Here's a here's a date, here's a

397
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 4: fifth rounder that that's certainly kind of raising his hand.

398
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 4: And it's not like the nothing against the Bandy man.

399
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 4: It's not like the Michael Bandy sort of thing, like

400
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,719
Speaker 4: oh yeah, here's little little little slot receiver. It's kind

401
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 4: of getting these quick, quick hitters and able to get

402
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 4: some running after the catch. No, these are professional wide

403
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 4: ex wide receiver looking plays, and we know that that's

404
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 4: what this team is searching for right now.

405
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 3: On Tuesday, he made this toe taping kitch on the

406
00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:01,479
Speaker 3: sideline too, and it made me go watch als college

407
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 3: highlights last night, Bunny, And I think people forget that

408
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 3: he was with Penn State before he was with Auburn.

409
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 3: And just a couple of stats to rejog everybody's memory

410
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 3: from the draft. He's the only player in Penn State

411
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 3: history with multiple eighty yard receptions. Think of all the

412
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,880
Speaker 3: players that have gone through that university, the only player

413
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 3: in history with eighty with multiple eighty yard receptions. He

414
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 3: had twenty catches of twenty plus yards. He watched the

415
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 3: Rose Bowl against Utah and that the slant go that

416
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 3: he had against Utah for eighty seven yards. Last year

417
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 3: three catches of sixty plus yards at Auburn sixty seven

418
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 3: sixty seven sixty also had a fifty yard catch and

419
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 3: that's what was missing last year in this offense, that

420
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,160
Speaker 3: deep threat, that four to three seven speed. Again, this

421
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 3: is training camp practice.

422
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 2: So to your point.

423
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 3: About the Hall of Fame game, Normally it's like, okay,

424
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 3: just get in, get out, make.

425
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 2: Sure these guys are healthy.

426
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:02,640
Speaker 3: But to see Kla, Trey Harris, Ronde Gats and kind

427
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 3: of the future of this Chargers offense debut a week

428
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 3: from today, it's going to be fascinating and I just

429
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 3: I am intrigued to see if Caless can put that

430
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 3: together in a game setting, because you'll practice is different.

431
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 4: I think you hit it on the head right, You're

432
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 4: able to open this thing up and imagine what Lad

433
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 4: mccacky's going to be able to do. And the guy

434
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,439
Speaker 4: was doubled and tripled the entire second half of the season,

435
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 4: and he still put up twelve hundred yards, you know,

436
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 4: and still put up two hundred yards in a playoff

437
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 4: game even though he was literally the only offensive threat

438
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,159
Speaker 4: in the game. They couldn't run the ball, no other

439
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 4: receiver had to catch, and Lad's putting up two hundred yards. Now,

440
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 4: imagine if you have a guy, like you said, with

441
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 4: four to three speed on the outside, and it's sort

442
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 4: of like with Q what we were talking about from

443
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,479
Speaker 4: those practices at the bolt, It's like, Okay, he's tracking

444
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 4: it now, Like he really struggled to track the ball

445
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 4: his rookie year, didn't really get much better last year,

446
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 4: and now, okay, this is something he added in the

447
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 4: offseason that he clearly concentrated on because now he's tracking

448
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 4: the ball. He's bringing you know, he had those two

449
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 4: over the shoulder catches for touchdowns on go balls, like

450
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 4: we saw it, like, okay, cool, that's great. With KLS,

451
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 4: It's like, okay, that's just natural. This this is just

452
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,680
Speaker 4: something that this guy does that he he sees it,

453
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 4: he adjusts to it, he's comfortable he's gotten. He's not

454
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 4: breaking his stride when he's turning to look to try

455
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 4: to figure out where they's sead. He is running full

456
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,919
Speaker 4: speed while he's beginning his adjustment to go back to

457
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 4: catch that ball over Dean Landard. Like, that's just that's

458
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,239
Speaker 4: natural wide receiver stuff. And I don't mean to take

459
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:43,359
Speaker 4: anything away from Ronde Gadsden, who had a great practice

460
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 4: three days ago or or whatever was Saturday, was it Monday,

461
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,920
Speaker 4: Monday Monday or from and really he's had a great camp,

462
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 4: or from Trey Harris who had a couple of really

463
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,159
Speaker 4: nice grabs yesterday and has had a great camp.

464
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 1: I think for me, it's just it's probably the.

465
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:00,160
Speaker 4: Guy that I knew the least about that I didn't

466
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 4: really invest enough time in. And I think that's why

467
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 4: it was a real from a just guy gonna get

468
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 4: out there, Like what's going on?

469
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: Why is he working off? Doesn't he know how valuable

470
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 1: these reps are? Too? Okay, here we go. This is interesting.

471
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 3: You know we were we were kind of shocked when

472
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 3: when Mike Williams retired, but I think we said it

473
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,360
Speaker 3: last week. Everybody just gets moved up a peg and

474
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 3: it just makes the competition inside the room. You know,

475
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 3: let's not forget about Jalen Rager as well. Yeah he

476
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 3: was out yesterday, Yeah he was out yesterday.

477
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 2: But quin quintin listen, Quinton has had a.

478
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 3: Fantastic start to camp. He had a drop yesterday. I

479
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 3: feel like we're living and dying with every every rep

480
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 3: from Quinton, and I just let's let's focus on the

481
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 3: fact that he is uh, he's tracking the ball like

482
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 3: you said, he had uh, he had five touchdowns and

483
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 3: five practices and you know, if he could just continue

484
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 3: to us send I just I see on Twitter, and

485
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 3: I know maybe it's the way you don't go on

486
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 3: Twitter as much as you know. Everybody lives and dies

487
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,159
Speaker 3: with every play, every rep, and I know that this

488
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 3: is the only thing we got right now with training

489
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:09,639
Speaker 3: camp practices.

490
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 2: But let's just get to the games.

491
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 3: And I certainly have seen a market improvement from Quentin

492
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 3: Johnson through the first week of camp.

493
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:20,680
Speaker 4: I'm going to disagree with you on one thing there,

494
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,879
Speaker 4: and that is that everybody lives with every rep, because

495
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 4: if they were, then they would balance out a bad

496
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 4: drop yesterday with five touchdowns in four days, if they

497
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,159
Speaker 4: if they were willing to live with every rep, then

498
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,199
Speaker 4: they would have seen the five touchdowns and balance it

499
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 4: out with the one drop instead.

500
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,920
Speaker 1: And I think that's.

501
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 4: Look, I don't want to get I've done it already

502
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,360
Speaker 4: multiple times on this pod. I don't want to keep

503
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 4: doing it. But it's like the grown from that crowd

504
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,919
Speaker 4: when he dropped that ball was it was deafening, like

505
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,439
Speaker 4: it was bad and I just like, man, like just

506
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 4: he's had five touchdowns in four days and it's but

507
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 4: it didn't matter. Like from that point on, he had

508
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 4: two other grabs that were fine, and it just nobody

509
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 4: was cheering like it was just a oh that was

510
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 4: a third and ten. He flashes wide open over the middle,

511
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,400
Speaker 4: lets the ball get through his hands to his chest

512
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 4: and it bounces off and hits the ground and it's

513
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:26,679
Speaker 4: all that anybody left there with and sort of, you know,

514
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,360
Speaker 4: I said, look, if I told you that a guy

515
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 4: is going to put up five touchdowns in over a

516
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 4: four game spirit over a four game span, and then

517
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 4: he's going to have a critical drop on a third down,

518
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:43,919
Speaker 4: would you take it. Yeah, I'll take five touchdowns in

519
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 4: four games if it means they're going to have a drop.

520
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,639
Speaker 4: It was a bad drop. There's no, there's no sugar

521
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 4: coating that he's wide open. Herbert hits him right between

522
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,120
Speaker 4: the numbers, and unfortunately the ball literally hit his chest

523
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 4: right but you know, right on the number one and

524
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 4: popped up in the air and fell.

525
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna happen.

526
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 4: I just hope that he's that he's able to overcome it,

527
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 4: because it certainly looked like it affected him, and I'm

528
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 4: hopeful that he's in that place mentally where he can basically, hey,

529
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,680
Speaker 4: you guys can pound freaking sand because I'm going to

530
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 4: come back in this next play and make a plaque.

531
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 4: Just I hope he can get to that spot because

532
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 4: we know that it's affected him, and I think it

533
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 4: affected him yesterday.

534
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 3: I saw that the first week, you know, before Santiago

535
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 3: just you could just tell he was playing with just

536
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 3: so much more confidence. He was jumping around, he was

537
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:41,120
Speaker 3: excited for his teammates, he was making plays. And that's

538
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 3: why when I say live and die with every rep

539
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,640
Speaker 3: it's okay, he made a touchdown. People are analyzing the

540
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 3: touchdown like, Okay, how did.

541
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 1: He know what you man?

542
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:52,439
Speaker 4: I was just being a smart ass, like come on, guys,

543
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 4: you want to get on the guy for Battle, Like,

544
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 4: you know, I love Sam. I've known Sam Monson forever.

545
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 4: But it's like to post that and to have not

546
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 4: posted anything for someone that watches as much film as

547
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 4: Sam does and is really sees the game well, to

548
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 4: not have already written something about, hey, this is kind

549
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 4: of cool. Quintin's tracking the ball, you know, and that's

550
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,120
Speaker 4: been an issue. It's kind of why he wasn't able

551
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 4: to play the X because it's hard to run those

552
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 4: go routes because he wasn't tracking the ball. To say, hey,

553
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,320
Speaker 4: he's got three catches now where he's tracking the ball,

554
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 4: catching the ball and stride scoring touchdowns in you know,

555
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 4: Manda Man coverage where he's got contested catch situations, but

556
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 4: there's none of that. Instead he posts yesterday, I know

557
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 4: it's all training camp because I've seen three stone cold

558
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 4: drops from Quinton. It's just it's laying. It's it's like

559
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 4: you're better than that day.

560
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 1: I know.

561
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:45,120
Speaker 2: It's it's genuous.

562
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 1: It's red meat for the people, and I get it,

563
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 1: and that's fine. I don't.

564
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,719
Speaker 4: You know, Yes, the guy's got to be counted on

565
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 4: in critical situations in games, so it doesn't happen in games.

566
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:57,920
Speaker 4: But I feel like we've seen some really good from

567
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 4: him so far this camp, you know, and that's be

568
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 4: that should be celebrated. While you're also critical about that drop.

569
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 2: Exactly both things. Both things can be true.

570
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 3: It's just it doesn't have to be so so black

571
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:10,679
Speaker 3: and white.

572
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 2: And the the young.

573
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 3: Guys that are raising their hand right now, it's just

574
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 3: rising tide lifts all boats. I think Quentin will be

575
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:24,399
Speaker 3: the starter week one across from lat McConkey, and I

576
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 3: think Trey Harris and I think KLS and I think

577
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 3: Jalen Rager are all going to get opportunities to play

578
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 3: a lot of meaningful football at the beginning of the year.

579
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 3: Anything else with the wide receiver.

580
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 4: Group, I mean, I'll just show you this, Chris, like,

581
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 4: just just for people know I'm not being I mean

582
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:39,639
Speaker 4: I wrote it as well.

583
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:41,199
Speaker 1: I don't know if you can see that. Is that

584
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 1: backwards or is it right? No? Yeah? Q drop? Wide open? Ug?

585
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 1: What's right below it? Rice? Drop? Ug? What's right there?

586
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:51,679
Speaker 1: Hampton drop?

587
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 4: Like there's nobody's talking about a marin Hampton was wide open,

588
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 4: had ten yards of green in front of them, flat

589
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 4: out drop. The pack couldn't handle the past from Herbert

590
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,360
Speaker 4: dropped it. No, he talked about it, you know, and

591
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 4: and it's just that's kind of like my issue. It's like, yeah,

592
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 4: there were other drops in that. Look, lad is so

593
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 4: good and that's so incredible that it's hard to measure

594
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 4: up to that, to that standard. And so I think

595
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,639
Speaker 4: that's part of it because man Latt just puts on

596
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,439
Speaker 4: a show every practice, and and then I think you

597
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 4: combine that with KLS playing the X and making those

598
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:25,639
Speaker 4: like I think, here we go, there's look at that

599
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 4: little one on the bottom there.

600
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, eighty four k catch point exclamate not one.

601
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,159
Speaker 1: Not two exclamation points.

602
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 4: So like I think you kind of mix all that

603
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 4: together in a salad bowl, and it's like I get it.

604
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 4: I totally get it. So that's like on the wide receivers,

605
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:47,719
Speaker 4: it wasn't really I did watch uh, let's see, here

606
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 4: we go, there's a there's a little one there with

607
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 4: uh with Gadsden eighty four beaten by forty nine speed

608
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 4: rush on the edge. So there were no pads though,

609
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 4: so it was just speed can you get your body

610
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 4: turned and try to get your hands on them.

611
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 1: So yeah, look there's good, there's bad in every practice.

612
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 1: Twice practice practicing to get better.

613
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 3: It's the first week of practice before the first week

614
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 3: of practice for everybody else too. Yeah, you know what

615
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 3: I mean, it's we've already already light years ahead of

616
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 3: the rest of the NFL at this point. So, okay,

617
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 3: Trey Harris Quinn, I wanted to touch on the running backs.

618
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 2: You mentioned a Marion Hampton.

619
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 3: You know, we're not sure when Nashi Harris is gonna

620
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 3: come back, but Naim Heinz was signed and I tweeted

621
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,720
Speaker 3: this the other day. It's kind of coincidental that Naim

622
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 3: Heines's best year was actually with Philip Rivers in Indianapolis

623
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:38,479
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty.

624
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 2: And this is the guy who hasn't played football in

625
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 2: a couple of years.

626
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 3: But you know, hope, you hope that by not playing

627
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:46,719
Speaker 3: you don't have as much wear a tear on your

628
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 3: body and he can come in fresh and it'll be

629
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 3: interesting to see what he can do in practice and

630
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 3: maybe starting with his Hall of Fame game money.

631
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's you know, just giving you a little preview

632
00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 4: the notes for the Hall of Fame game. I mean,

633
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 4: here's the stuff I got on on naim Is forty

634
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 4: or more receptions and three hundred more yards in each

635
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 4: of his first four seasons. Like, he can catch the

636
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 4: ball out of the backfield and make stuff happen. You

637
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 4: get him a nice smoke route, find him in the flat,

638
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 4: and he can make guys miss. He was so good

639
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,560
Speaker 4: that first year that he got himself an eight. Think

640
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 4: about this as a running back in twenty twenty one.

641
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 4: This is not twenty twenty four when Derek Henry and

642
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 4: Saquon Barkley are getting these big deals. This dude got

643
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 4: a three year, nineteen million dollar extension in twenty twenty one. Like,

644
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 4: that's how big of a part of that Colts offense

645
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 4: he was and in twenty twenty, so this is the

646
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 4: year he had going into that extension. Guy seventy three

647
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 4: point three rush grade from Pro Football Focus, ninety one

648
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 4: point seven receiving grade. So you're talking about a guy

649
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 4: that was playing at a very high level before that

650
00:30:55,440 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 4: freak ACL injury. So he's interesting because he's so different, Right,

651
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 4: Like Rocket Sanders is out two twenty you know six

652
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 4: one two twenty or six one two thirty actually is

653
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 4: rhem Sanders Nase he's out, he's two forty. And then

654
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 4: they bring in this little sort of you know, scat

655
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 4: back that it was just an interesting addition. And I

656
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 4: almost wonder if the if if you know, we had

657
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 4: Ryan Ficken at the podium the other day and we

658
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 4: were asking him about Darius Davis, and he was, you

659
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 4: know about competition there about you know, we've seen you

660
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 4: put lad and now we see kls back there, like

661
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 4: just kind of walk us through competition because it doesn't

662
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 4: really feel like one, you know, And and he was

663
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:37,840
Speaker 4: he said, no, we need.

664
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 1: To have competition there.

665
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 4: He's like, but Darius is special, and I think the

666
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 4: addition of niem Heims can maybe get him a little competition. Maybe,

667
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 4: you know, there's nothing wrong with with light and a

668
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 4: fire under someone's took us, you know, and kind of

669
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 4: getting somebody else out there that's got four, you know,

670
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,959
Speaker 4: two kick and two punt return touchdowns on his resume

671
00:31:57,600 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 4: out there to kind of, you know, just make it

672
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 4: a little interesting.

673
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 3: Especially if you can stash him on the practice squad

674
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 3: during during the season. Let's you know, the hope is

675
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 3: just nas you'll be back sooner than later. You have Hampton,

676
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 3: you talk about Haskins, Uh, maybe that's maybe that's a

677
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 3: guy that you can stash on the practice squad. He

678
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 3: obviously hadn't play football in a couple of years, so

679
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 3: I don't know, you know, he'll have an opportunity. Let's

680
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 3: just say that he'll have that opportunity over the next

681
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 3: four preseason games to show that he's kind of returned

682
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 3: to form in the NFL.

683
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 4: Well, I think right now, I mean hearing Naji Harris's

684
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 4: agent say he'll be you know, the hope is he's

685
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 4: ready for Week one, Like, that's not encouraging. That's and

686
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 4: we haven't seen Sanders in a week. So right now

687
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:49,479
Speaker 4: it's Hampton, Viidel Haskins. Hi Like, there's your there's your

688
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 4: four backs right now there. I don't see Najie Harris.

689
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 4: I don't see Raheem Sanders out there. So I almost

690
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 4: think it's you know, I almost think it's more than

691
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 4: a camp body. It's like, hey, we got to find

692
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 4: a vet. I've got because think about it. I mean,

693
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 4: now he like like.

694
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 1: He's a VET.

695
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 4: He's a guy that's had good seasons in pass pro.

696
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 4: He's he's someone who we know can play.

697
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:16,120
Speaker 1: He's a VET.

698
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 4: You know, Hampton's a rookie. Vydell fell off by the

699
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,719
Speaker 4: end of the year and was getting almost zero reps.

700
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 4: We know Asan is a core four special teams guy

701
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 4: and a good third down pass protector, but he's not

702
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 4: really like they need.

703
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 1: A vet back there, man.

704
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 4: They need a guy that that is a threat and

705
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 4: can pass pro and can can help solidify that room

706
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 4: without Nase Like that's it's a big injury to Naji man.

707
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 4: The especially the what the injury was and how it happened. Man,

708
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 4: it's it's pretty no bueno man, no bueno.

709
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 2: Week one.

710
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 3: That's the concerning part is I think we both have

711
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 3: shared what we think of Marian Hampton as cap of

712
00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 3: in his rookie year and what an opportunity for him

713
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 3: to kind of just take this.

714
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 2: Thing and run with it right from the beginning.

715
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 3: But to play against Kansas City Chiefs and not really

716
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:13,319
Speaker 3: know what the backfield is is truly going to look like,

717
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 3: you know, after you snapped that first, uh, the first

718
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 3: offensive snap in Brazil, That is a little concerning. So

719
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 3: the Naji thing is something will have to monitor over

720
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 3: the next couple of weeks, and you just hope he

721
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,280
Speaker 3: can get on the practice field as soon as possible.

722
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,400
Speaker 3: He's a veteran, He's never missed a game in the NFL.

723
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 3: Uh And and I'm sure the the offseason work and

724
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:38,840
Speaker 3: just kind of getting integrated into this offense that was

725
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,720
Speaker 3: beneficial for him this offseason. But yeah, missing missing valuable

726
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 3: time and practice because let's be honest, he was never

727
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,799
Speaker 3: going to play in the preseason games anyway. So the practices,

728
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,720
Speaker 3: practices are the crucial, the crucial part of this especially

729
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:56,120
Speaker 3: you know starting Saturday with this this uh back together weekend.

730
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 3: You know, the pads are on now, man, and and

731
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 3: each each practice with the pads on, it is another

732
00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 3: step closer to the regular season. So yeah, I just

733
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 3: think that's it. That's a TBD at this point. I

734
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 3: am very intrigued as we kind of push it forward

735
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 3: to Saturday. Money is just now that the pads are on,

736
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 3: we can really see what the offensive line looks like.

737
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 2: We can see what the running backs look like.

738
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 3: That pass rush with Khalil Mack sounds like Khalil Mack

739
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:26,880
Speaker 3: right to practice.

740
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:28,600
Speaker 1: On Tuesday on that.

741
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 4: It's like when you said, you know, if we can

742
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 4: see the offensive line with the pads on, we got

743
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,359
Speaker 4: to get Rashwan Slater out there, man, because that's it

744
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 4: was Ryan Nelson that was bumped up a slot because

745
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 4: Pitt was playing with the first line, with the first

746
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 4: team offensive line. So instead of having him as your

747
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 4: second team going against Khalil Mack, you've got a guy

748
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 4: that was just signed from the UFL out there getting

749
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 4: abused by the guy one on one with no help.

750
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 4: So I'm hopeful it's you know, he came to camp,

751
00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 4: he practiced the first day. There was some gottlebout out

752
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 4: there that that it was close. I'd love to see

753
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:05,399
Speaker 4: that thing get done.

754
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,880
Speaker 3: What did you say before the podcast? Every time we tape,

755
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 3: something happens.

756
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 4: Hopefully that's the case that here we are tape and

757
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:17,879
Speaker 4: Thursday morning and by Thursday afternoon usually it's the same day,

758
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 4: Trey Harris, same day.

759
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:20,919
Speaker 2: I should check.

760
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,759
Speaker 3: I should check Twitter while we're actually on the pod

761
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:24,360
Speaker 3: as we speak.

762
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 4: Yes, one to three pm is practice today, I believe.

763
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,399
Speaker 4: I think, Yeah, it's a one to three day. It's

764
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 4: because yesterday was twelve to one day, so or twelve

765
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:34,800
Speaker 4: to two days. So yeah, it's one to three today,

766
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:38,239
Speaker 4: I believe. So let's uh, let's get Slater out there

767
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 4: as soon as we get done tape in this thing. Yeah,

768
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,320
Speaker 4: one to three, thanks Sine, and he'll be out there today.

769
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:48,040
Speaker 3: I actually another another note here on X I just

770
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 3: opened it up and this is from Angel.

771
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 2: What's up, Brothers.

772
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 3: Any chance we can get Nick Hardwick on this week's

773
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 3: episode of Charges Weekly. I'd love to get Nick on.

774
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:58,400
Speaker 3: Maybe we can get Nick on next week or the

775
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:01,840
Speaker 3: week after, especially just the fact that he played with Antonio.

776
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 3: He can kind of give us that perspective as well

777
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,360
Speaker 3: as the maybe a development on the offensive line that

778
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:06,879
Speaker 3: would be cool.

779
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, love Nick. I'm fortunate.

780
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,359
Speaker 4: You know, Nick and I did games my first year

781
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 4: in twenty eighteen, he was or twenty seventeen. I mean,

782
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,800
Speaker 4: he was the color analyst and it was a blast.

783
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 4: And he sees football better than almost anybody you'll ever

784
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:23,320
Speaker 4: come across. The way he sees the pieces move in

785
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:27,839
Speaker 4: the moment. It's great, coach, incredible, you know, Chargers Hall

786
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 4: of Fame caliber offensive lineman. And obviously with the center

787
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 4: situation surrounding Zion versus Bradley Boseman, would be great to

788
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 4: get on. So hopefully we can do that. Maybe we're

789
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 4: able to do it, you know out in Canton. See

790
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:44,360
Speaker 4: if maybe that's something we can put together. With the

791
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 4: game being late in the day, we can maybe do

792
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,799
Speaker 4: a little Chargers weekly. If he's got a little half

793
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 4: hour window where we could snatch him up and have

794
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:53,279
Speaker 4: a bit of a chat before that game, that could

795
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:53,879
Speaker 4: be a lot of fun.

796
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:54,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, that'd be great.

797
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 1: That'd be great.

798
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 3: Defensively, let's touch on a couple of things defensively before

799
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 3: we get out of here. Yeah, the secondary in the

800
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 3: quarter competition, anything of no doubt there. When you were

801
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,400
Speaker 3: there in San Diego, I saw Bridges kind of had

802
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 3: a bounce back.

803
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:10,240
Speaker 2: Practice on Tuesday.

804
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, he had a nice pick. Saint just just

805
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 4: was out yesterday, I believe as well. I think he

806
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 4: missed both practices. Saw Dante Jackson jump a rounte. Let

807
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,040
Speaker 4: me see what Monday was ten to twelve was either Monday, Yeah,

808
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,319
Speaker 4: it was there Monday. Saw Dante Jackson jump a route,

809
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:30,279
Speaker 4: should have had an interception, just couldn't secure it. I

810
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:34,799
Speaker 4: think it's to me, I think it's gonna be I

811
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 4: think it's gonna be Jackson. I don't know, I don't

812
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 4: know what it is. It's what we said, you know,

813
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, I think it's Jackson. Hart and still,

814
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 4: but you know, Derlin's just so good. Yesterday he was

815
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 4: playing that big nickel and burst through the line of

816
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,919
Speaker 4: scrimmage and swatted away a Trey Lance just snapped throw

817
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 4: and Durwain was so fast he got in there and

818
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,799
Speaker 4: slapped that thing away. I just think they're the best

819
00:38:56,800 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 4: when he's playing big nickel. So that's where it'll be interesting,

820
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 4: is what is that competition between Jackson Hart and Still

821
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 4: if they're if derewins the nickel, So it's it's like

822
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 4: competition is definitely stiffed. I think Mickens has been making plays, man,

823
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,879
Speaker 4: he's been He's been making plays out there. I think

824
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 4: when you talk about seventh round picks, we know last year,

825
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 4: you know they were fine, you know, releasing one and

826
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 4: every team does you know, seventh round picks are kind

827
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 4: of like undrafted free agents as to whether or not

828
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 4: they're going to make the team. So I think Mickens

829
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 4: looks the part, looks like he's going to be a

830
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 4: great special teamer. It's got a nose for the ball,

831
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,080
Speaker 4: and like you said, Bridges was just you just didn't

832
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 4: really notice him much until yesterday or maybe it's two

833
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,400
Speaker 4: days ago, when he had that big PBu and the

834
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 4: big interception.

835
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 1: So it's heavy competition.

836
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 4: Spot, trying to think of what else if I remember

837
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:50,320
Speaker 4: seeing anybody else out there that flash not really on Saturday.

838
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,799
Speaker 3: It's going to be fun for fans to see that

839
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 3: competition also, just the defensive line in how that rotation

840
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 3: shakes out, because there's a lot of dudes there, a

841
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 3: lot of a lot of new guys there on the interior.

842
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of them.

843
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:05,880
Speaker 4: And right now they're kind of running all three together.

844
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:09,920
Speaker 4: You know, it's tartand Jones. I mean it's Tart hand.

845
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 4: We've seen Abonian Jones together and you know, and then

846
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:20,879
Speaker 4: Caldwell and a boy Gbee are kind of in that

847
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 4: third tier with Tara Edwards what's his name?

848
00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, Tara Edwards as well. So it's deep. It's deep.

849
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 4: And I saw Caldwell had a nice was it two

850
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 4: days ago? Burst through the line nice just kind of

851
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 4: get off, got into the backfield immediately for a TfL.

852
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 1: So it's a deep group.

853
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:44,000
Speaker 4: But I'm pretty sure if I remember right, I'm trying to,

854
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 4: I feel like it was Tier ninety one, right, Yeah,

855
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 4: so it's Tier deshan hand so and then I think

856
00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 4: I feel like Jones and and Tito we're right behind them.

857
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 1: I got my toe cap in the chair. I don't

858
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 1: want to break that.

859
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, it looks like Justine heard in a chair, got

860
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:17,319
Speaker 4: it caught. So my feet is small. It's the thing

861
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 4: about my purport, the proportions of my body. I have

862
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 4: the smallest head and fur the size of my body.

863
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 4: I have somewhat large feet. So with these elevens every

864
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,200
Speaker 4: now and then I'll forget because I'm a smaller person

865
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:30,799
Speaker 4: that the feet are kind of big and they just

866
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 4: get anyway.

867
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:35,239
Speaker 1: There's too much information I have.

868
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,720
Speaker 3: I have one more thing for you. You you alluded

869
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 3: to it at the top. The quarterbacks behind Justin Herbert

870
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,239
Speaker 3: starting Saturday for for the fans that are out there,

871
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,399
Speaker 3: and then going into that that Hall of Fame game.

872
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,440
Speaker 3: Terrery Lance has has looked pretty good at times, and

873
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 3: you know, we know, we know what the Chargers have.

874
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 3: And Taylor Heinike and then DJ just a young arm

875
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 3: that I think will probably get a decent or metal

876
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,440
Speaker 3: run than Kim I hope.

877
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:04,879
Speaker 4: So, like I said, I think we look at each

878
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,360
Speaker 4: of the three and what do you have With Heineken

879
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:11,319
Speaker 4: steady hand that started a full season, has shown he

880
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 4: can win games in the NFL. It's kind of what

881
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:17,080
Speaker 4: you want right behind someone like justin Herbert, just someone

882
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,960
Speaker 4: that can see it, that knows it. That's a person

883
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 4: he can lean on. What do you see help me out?

884
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,400
Speaker 4: That's what made Easton so special, as he saw the

885
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,920
Speaker 4: game really well, and Herbert trusted him implicitly whenever he

886
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,800
Speaker 4: would come to the sideline. So that's the one that

887
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:33,360
Speaker 4: probably makes the most sense. But then you have the

888
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:35,920
Speaker 4: athleticism of Trey Lance, the ability to run a lot

889
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,799
Speaker 4: of those RPOs and that you know, that mesh and

890
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 4: what he can do with his legs. And then in

891
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:44,720
Speaker 4: the case of DJ, you're talking about just raw talent,

892
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:49,759
Speaker 4: raw measurables, raw athleticism. The number one rated quarterback from

893
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,760
Speaker 4: his high school class five star, you know, first two games,

894
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,840
Speaker 4: freaking baller, you know, comes in for an injured Trevor

895
00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,840
Speaker 4: Lawrence down eighteen against Boston College, leads him to a

896
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:03,880
Speaker 4: when next week at Notre Dame, you know, and what

897
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 4: does he do overtime? They lose, but forty seven forty

898
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,360
Speaker 4: guy throws for like three point fifty and two touchdowns

899
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:12,720
Speaker 4: like it's in there, and he throws the prettiest ball

900
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 4: of any of them, and it's not close by the

901
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 4: way like DJ can sling it.

902
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 1: So that's gonna be fun.

903
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,960
Speaker 4: To watch, you know, especially if you got Kls out

904
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:26,239
Speaker 4: there and Shrey out there and all that speed and

905
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 4: Aronde Gadsden and all that athleticism like that could be

906
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 4: really fun if that's how it looks out there when

907
00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:33,680
Speaker 4: when DJ's taking some snaps.

908
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 3: One week, the Chargers will play football in Can't Ohio

909
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 3: against the Detroit Lions anything.

910
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 2: Else before we get out of here.

911
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:46,080
Speaker 3: Money look forward to seeing the fans on Saturday for

912
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:48,760
Speaker 3: a back together weekend at the Bolt.

913
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:50,480
Speaker 1: Yeah.

914
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:51,920
Speaker 4: No, we just love to see you. Get out there

915
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,120
Speaker 4: early if you can. It's five to seven practice. I

916
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 4: think we're probably talking about doing you know, the the

917
00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 4: Chalk Talk, the Chargers Weekly, whatever you want to call it,

918
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 4: around four thirty, So be great to see all out there.

919
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 4: Oh and I also got a I got a note

920
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,359
Speaker 4: someone was talking about Chargers Weekly.

921
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,760
Speaker 1: About something that we brought up. Was it this guy Brooks?

922
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 2: No?

923
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 1: Where are you? Who was it? Anthony? I want to

924
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:22,400
Speaker 1: make sure I get it right. Whoever this was?

925
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 4: Someone had mentioned that we brought up the Oh here

926
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:32,319
Speaker 4: it is, Michael, appreciate us mentioning the youth zone went

927
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 4: to training camp. Son waited all practice and Justin Herbert

928
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,120
Speaker 4: came over and signed his football. Nine years old, he's

929
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:44,280
Speaker 4: still star struck. So yeah, So if you have kids,

930
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,440
Speaker 4: get him out to training camp, throw them in the

931
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 4: kid corral and the players are coming over there. Harball

932
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,400
Speaker 4: goes over there before he walks onto the field every practice.

933
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,759
Speaker 4: It's really cool for the kids to kind of get

934
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:56,360
