1
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:12,479
Speaker 1: Another day, another big chains for the Jets. They try

2
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 1: to get their team and their offense off the ground again.

3
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 2: We will tell you why Aaron.

4
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,160
Speaker 1: Rodgers will have a new voice in his ear, maybe

5
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: someone new to gesticulate at this week, the Bears are

6
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 1: in London and so is our Stacy Dales, who will

7
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: join us to discuss how.

8
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams and Trevor Lawrence.

9
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: Can build off their best games this season. It was

10
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 1: a good week for the Vikings in London and one

11
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: of their legends who sounded the galler Horn. He's headed

12
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,599
Speaker 1: into the International Game Hall of Fame and he will

13
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: join us to talk about his Tennessee top hat and

14
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: a whole lot more.

15
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 2: Well.

16
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: Come inside with the Insiders alongside Ian Rappapord, Judy Matista

17
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,959
Speaker 1: and Mike Garafollo. I am Tom Peliserra just so down,

18
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna figure it out, all us together.

19
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: Let's just stay called throughout the course of this show.

20
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 1: It's a big day though. We're all excited. It is

21
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: Week six kicking off in the NFL and it all

22
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: starts out at Lubin Field in Seattle for an NFC

23
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: West tilt tonight. What a great scenic right there overlooking

24
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 1: Lake Washington. Is wonder how Bridget Condon's enjoying her time

25
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: in Seattle. Let's ask her right now as she joins

26
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: us from the field in Seattle, Bridget a huge game

27
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: for these teams in the NFC West. Obviously, the forty

28
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: nine Ers have dealt with various injury issues, including to

29
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, try to fight their way out of a

30
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 1: two and three start. The Seahawks start at three and zero,

31
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: have dropped two. What are we looking for in this

32
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: game tonight?

33
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, Tom, We're not usually talking about a game during

34
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 3: Week six with such a big significance, but this is

35
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 3: the case here tonight in Seattle, and it's kind of

36
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 3: become a routine for the forty nine Ers here on

37
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 3: Thursday Night against the Seahawks. They've played here on Thursday

38
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 3: Night the past two seasons. Today we'll mark the third.

39
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 3: They've won both of those games. They've actually won the

40
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 3: past five games against the Seahawks. But tonight's gonna be different.

41
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 3: For one of those things. Pete Carroll won't be across

42
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 3: on the sideline. They played him thirty times, and tonight

43
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 3: it'll be Mike McDonald but this forty nine ers team

44
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,679
Speaker 3: does have some familiarity with Mike McDonald. Do you guys

45
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 3: remember back on Christmas Day last year? It was the

46
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 3: number one in the NFC against the number one in

47
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 3: the AFC, Mike McDonald and the Ravens. He was the

48
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 3: defensive coordinator in that game. Brock Perty through a career

49
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 3: high four interceptions, the worst game of his career. He says,

50
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 3: they've been watching that tape. The scheme is a bit similar,

51
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 3: but he says they have to get back to doing

52
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 3: what the forty nine ers do best, calling this a

53
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 3: get right game real quick. Just to put in perspective

54
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 3: how big this is. If the forty nine ers lose tonight,

55
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 3: it'll be their third divisional loss. If they win tonight,

56
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 3: they'll be at the top of the NFC West, tied

57
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 3: with the Seahawks for first place.

58
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: Great point, you're burying yourself in tiebreakers if you dropped

59
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: three in a row against divisional bridget. Thank you very

60
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: much for look forward to talking more with you later

61
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: on in the show. Brock Perty's actually played at a

62
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 1: really high level despite everything going around him. Aaron Rodgers

63
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: and the Jets offense not so much. We know Robert

64
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 1: Saul of course, was fired on Tuesday, and now another

65
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 1: change that had been in the works even before Saula

66
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: got let go has come to fruition, interim coach Jeff

67
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: Olbrick confirming today it will be Todd Downing replacing Rogers's

68
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: close friend Nathaniel Hackett as the offensive play caller.

69
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 2: Here's what Aaron Rodgers had to say about that shift.

70
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I knew there'd be changes after they

71
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 4: let Robert go. I had conversations with Brick over the

72
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 4: two days. I knew that he was thinking about it,

73
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 4: leading toward it, and I told him I'd back him

74
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 4: up whatever he decided.

75
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 2: You talk about your relationship with Todd Downey.

76
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a great relationship. I love Todd. Tod's a

77
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 4: great dude. It's been fun in the room, been a

78
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 4: phenomenal quarterback. Coach told him that many times. You know,

79
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 4: it's deliberate to drills. You know, he brings the right

80
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 4: mindset to the room. He helps out the young guys

81
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 4: really well too, gives a voice to me and Tyron

82
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 4: in the room, and it's been a really good working relationship.

83
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 5: Do you feel the change was necessary?

84
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 4: Oh, I don't think that's that's that's not something for

85
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 4: me to have an opinion on. You know, it was

86
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 4: a Brick's decision, told him, I back him up, whatever

87
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 4: you decided.

88
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 6: How is Nathaniel going.

89
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 7: Asking we're not able to okay, honest with you?

90
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 1: And we got a smile out of Aaron at the

91
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 1: end of that, Judy. A lot of different things going

92
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 1: on right now with the Jets. Not a surprise that

93
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: they're trying to shake things up on both sides of

94
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: the ball here. What do you make of this, particularly

95
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: knowing the dynamics between Aaron Rodgers, his close friend Nathaniel Hackett,

96
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: and obviously Todd Down He was called plays in a

97
00:04:58,440 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: couple of places before.

98
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 8: Well, this was inevitable. I think no matter who the

99
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 8: head coach was, even if Robert Sala was there, it

100
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 8: was clear that change was necessary on the offense. As

101
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 8: a matter of fact, Aaron Rodgers said it himself on

102
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 8: Pat mcafew show yesterday that something had to change. You

103
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 8: can't just keep doing the same thing over and over

104
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,359
Speaker 8: again and expecting better results. This is a remarkable stat

105
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 8: The Jets have scored ninety three points through five games.

106
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,679
Speaker 8: That's exactly the same number of points as they scored

107
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 8: through five games last season, and there is no Zach

108
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 8: Wilson to take the blame for it this time, so

109
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 8: something has to change. They go to Todd Downing. I

110
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 8: thought it was interesting what Olbrooks said when he talked

111
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 8: about Downing. He of course, was the offensive coordinator in

112
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 8: Tennessee they had Derrick Henry. He said they were ruthless.

113
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 8: That is the word he used. He said they ran

114
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 8: the ball. They finished first of all, this offense. Not

115
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 8: only can this offense not finish, they're not even starting.

116
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 8: They've been getting off to slow starts. They haven't been

117
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 8: running the ball well. Despite having Breeze Hall healthy, they

118
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 8: haven't been able to ask protect all that well. So

119
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 8: they've got a lot of work to do. But again,

120
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,280
Speaker 8: I feel like change was inevitable no matter what they

121
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 8: did with the head coaching spot. We'll see if it

122
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 8: makes a difference. They've got some critical AFC games ahead

123
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 8: of them.

124
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 9: Well, the change to Todd Downing sparked the Jets off.

125
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 2: I have no idea.

126
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 9: I can't tell you. I don't know.

127
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 10: I know they hope that that's the case. I would

128
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 10: also tell you that some of the play calls would

129
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 10: be fine if the ball was in a certain area

130
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 10: and the receiver and the quarterback we're both expecting the

131
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 10: ball to be in the same place. I'm not blaming either.

132
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 10: I'm just saying, you can see it happening week.

133
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 9: In and week out. Here's the only thing that I

134
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 9: can guarantee you through this whole thing.

135
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 10: Nathaniel Hackett. Surely disappointed, right, surely disappointed. But Nathaniel Hackett

136
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 10: is going to be the ultimate team player on this one.

137
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 10: In fact, before each game it's him and Todd Downing

138
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 10: walking the field together doing about one hundred laps around

139
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 10: the field to get their exercise in before game. Those

140
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 10: two are close, They've got a good working relationship. So

141
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 10: I'm sure Hackett's going to do everything he possibly can

142
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 10: to make sure that Downing is successful and to make

143
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 10: sure Rogers is still successful.

144
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 9: Like that's still going to be a part of this.

145
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 10: So while he's not calling the plays, he will contribute.

146
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 10: He will try to help get this thing moving in

147
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 10: the right direction. That's all you can ask for if

148
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 10: you're the Jets with regard to Nathaniel Hackett and his

149
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 10: role going forward, and maybe who knows, maybe taking a

150
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 10: step back from play calling will help him in that role.

151
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 11: Now we'll see, well, Nathaniel Hackett rose to prominence as

152
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 11: an offensive coordinator as someone who did not call plays.

153
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 11: You could be a very good offensive coordinator and not

154
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 11: be the play caller.

155
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,679
Speaker 12: Now is called plays a couple times.

156
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 11: Obviously in Denver and now with the Jets did not

157
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 11: work in either. So it is Todd Downing who takes over,

158
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 11: who has at times been a successful play caller, was

159
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 11: for a while a rising young coach who really seemed

160
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 11: destined to do really, really good things.

161
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 12: Several things got in the way.

162
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 11: A tough season with the Raiders certainly started that whole thing.

163
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 11: But you're right, guys, this kind of is a fascinating dynamic.

164
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 11: I think if you asked Todd Downing like, hey, like,

165
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 11: isn't it great You're taking over for your good friend

166
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 11: Nathaniel Hockett, I'm not sure he would be that sort

167
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,679
Speaker 11: of excited about it. I'm not sure Rogers excited about

168
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 11: it either. It just feels like what is necessary. And

169
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 11: you know, this offense has looked like no offense that

170
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 11: has Aaron Rodgers ever should ever look. Clearly, they need

171
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 11: to be more creative and clearly teams are sort of

172
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 11: it looks a little dull. Honestly, it looks a little dull,

173
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 11: and when you talk to different coordinators around the league

174
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 11: try to figure it out. That's kind of what they say,

175
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 11: stagnant and dull.

176
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 2: You know, they.

177
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 11: Hope for a boost from Obrick as the new interim,

178
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 11: hope for a boost from Todd Downing as the new

179
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 11: play caller. If this doesn't work, I don't know where

180
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 11: they turn, but these are at least something that they

181
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 11: are trying this week to try to get this team

182
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 11: where it should be.

183
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 1: Obviously, there's also been speculation about a potential play calling

184
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 1: change in Cleveland coach Kevin Stefanski, though making clear that's

185
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: not happening, also making clear that he's not going away

186
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: from his starting quarterback, that is Deshaun Watson, who has

187
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: struggled along with the rest of the break offense through

188
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: the course of the first five weeks of the season.

189
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: For DeShawn Watson, there's a lot going on around him.

190
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,959
Speaker 1: He's not had a lot of his starters. In terms

191
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: of the offensive line, they had a big defection in

192
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 1: the off season with Bill Callahan, the longtime O line

193
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,439
Speaker 1: coach not being there anymore, and when to Shan Watson's

194
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: hitting guys in the hands with the ball, like Jerry

195
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: Judy last week, they tend to drop it. Here here's

196
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: what Kevin Stefanski had to say today about the totality

197
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: of the failures so far for Cleveland on offense.

198
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,959
Speaker 5: He's done a nice job throughout the days that he's throwing.

199
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 5: I thought he's doing really well. He's focused, locked in.

200
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 5: Even today, it's proud of him for being in the

201
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 5: huddle giving coaching points. I think that's so such a

202
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 5: huge part of this as the starting quarterback is Even

203
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 5: on a day like this where he gets an off

204
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 5: day throwing, it's not an off day from a leadership perspective,

205
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 5: and he did a nice job.

206
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: Ian We know that it's not as simple as we'll

207
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: just move on from Shaun Watson.

208
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 2: Trade them, cut them whatever they owe him.

209
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: Forty six million dollars fully guaranteed in twenty twenty five,

210
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 1: another forty six million dollars fully guaranteed in twenty twenty six.

211
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: I also don't sense that anybody in Cleveland believes that

212
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 1: this is one hundred percent of Deshaun Watson issue. Obviously,

213
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: they've got to get better. They're sticking with him as

214
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,680
Speaker 1: their quarterback, but how do they improve things in Cleveland

215
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 1: without big changes?

216
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 12: Well, there are so many things going on here.

217
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 11: There is the money, and you cannot talk about Deshaun

218
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 11: Watson without talking about this historic contract, which at the

219
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 11: time was I mean, honestly, it's still incredible, fully guaranteed

220
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 11: locks him in all the way. It's something that teams

221
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 11: rarely do. And I don't think anyone saw this coming.

222
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 11: With all the off the field issues for Deshaun Watson.

223
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 11: What no one saw coming, which is his play, would

224
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 11: be something that we'd actually be discussing here we are.

225
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 11: Last week, Deshaun Watson didn't play well. Was probably his

226
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 11: worst game of the season.

227
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,199
Speaker 12: There have been other games though, where he played very well,

228
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,679
Speaker 12: like really really well. Talk about what's going on around him.

229
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 11: The offensive line has been just a master There's been

230
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 11: a lot of injuries. At most games, they've had I

231
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 11: think two offense starting offensive linemen on the field at

232
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 11: the same time. It has not been five. His receivers

233
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 11: lead the NFL and drops. He has not played perfect obviously,

234
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 11: and again last week probably his worst game of the season,

235
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 11: but there have been plenty of times when he has

236
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,439
Speaker 11: played well, it's just been a struggle around him, which

237
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 11: you need to be careful of. Judy, is you need

238
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 11: this offensive line which doesn't have the elder?

239
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 2: Huh?

240
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 9: Who shot Ian?

241
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: Well? Ju do you want to pick up Ian? Start there?

242
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 1: Since he decided to hit the guard?

243
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 8: All right, I lost it being there. Yeah, I would

244
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 8: just say that, certainly. I think if this were a

245
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 8: normal circumstance, not a guaranteed contract, where you hadn't given

246
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 8: up a boatload of draft picks, there would at least

247
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 8: be a serious conversation about whether Deshaun Watson should be benched.

248
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 8: It would not just be flatly ruled out the way

249
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 8: it has been ruled out in Cleveland. But their hands

250
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,679
Speaker 8: are tied. You know, he has been uneven. I think

251
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 8: if you take the totality of his performance since he

252
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,679
Speaker 8: got to Cleveland, when he's been available, when he wasn't injured,

253
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 8: when he wasn't suspended, it has been uneven at best.

254
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 8: And as you said, last week was one of the

255
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 8: worst games he has played since he got to Cleveland.

256
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 8: But their hands are tied, and they did that themselves,

257
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 8: you know, the historic contract mortgaging the future with.

258
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 12: All the draft picks.

259
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 8: They got rid of Joe Flacco because they didn't want

260
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 8: that hanging over Deshaun Watson. This was an organizational decision.

261
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 8: They went all in with Deshaun Watson, and they've got

262
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 8: to stay all in with Deshaun Watson now because there's

263
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 8: no way out of it. They have tied Kevin Stefanski's hands.

264
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 8: Even if he thinks that maybe they could get a

265
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 8: boost by changing quarterbacks, it just can't happen.

266
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 9: I agree with Ian.

267
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 8: I never imagined that this far in that we would

268
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 8: be talking about Deshaun Watt Watson's play. There were certainly

269
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 8: a lot of other issues to talk about with Shaun Watson.

270
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 8: I never imagined we would be talking about his play.

271
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 10: I just texted I and it's not going through. So

272
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 10: I'm not sure if we've lost him for good. So

273
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 10: and he was a great guy. We appreciated his time

274
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 10: for the network.

275
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:22,839
Speaker 1: Moving on, we get there, up there, rip in nineteen eighty,

276
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty.

277
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 2: Righte eighty.

278
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 10: He's the oldest me you at Yeah, Shaun Watson, What

279
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 10: was I gonna say?

280
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 13: Oh?

281
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 10: I was Here's what I was going to say, Like,

282
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 10: the Browns are kind of holding on here because he's

283
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,079
Speaker 10: he's been known to get hot, right, He's been known

284
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 10: to just like when it looks really bad, all of

285
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,679
Speaker 10: a sudden, just boom, puts it all together. I think

286
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 10: about that Ravens game, which was the last game he

287
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 10: played last year, where they had that incredible comeback in Baltimore.

288
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 10: I think that they just feel like it's like it's

289
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 10: right around the corner, and you never it's not like

290
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 10: it like looks like it's coming. It'll just be boom,

291
00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 10: all of a sudden, it'll happen, and they're hoping that

292
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 10: that'll things and get everybody's confidence in him go and

293
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 10: get everybody's confidence in the entire offense going as well.

294
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 9: So that's where the Browns kind of are on this one.

295
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 10: Heybody, Oh man, we were just about did you guys

296
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 10: got really nice things about you?

297
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 2: I've been here the ruin.

298
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: I was gonna do a dramatic read of his Wikipedia

299
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: bio here. Ian Rapport was born in Boston, grew up

300
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: in chepp Aqua, New York. He was a college rower

301
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: at Columbia University, where he majored in his music. All right,

302
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 1: let's it was a good run. Let's take a quick break.

303
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 1: We'll get more from you later on, but after this,

304
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 1: we got a legend in the sport who might even

305
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: have some thing to say about Ian who knows. You

306
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 1: never know who's gonna speak to your own funeral unless

307
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: you're there, which Ian just was. Jared Allen one of

308
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 1: the greatest sac masters of his generation.

309
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 2: Once he got next for him, and what does he.

310
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: Think of that hot, red hot Vikings team that's.

311
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 2: Up to a five to ozh start. We'll ask him

312
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 2: right after this on The Insiders.

313
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 1: Jared Allen joined us right now on The Insiders with me,

314
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: Tom Pellicera as well as Brian Baldinger. Jared, I saw

315
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: you before the game last week in London, and I

316
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 1: got a very.

317
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 2: Important question for you.

318
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 1: When you when you were tabbed as the guy who's

319
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 1: gonna blow the galler horn?

320
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 2: Do you put your mouth on it? Like?

321
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: I don't know what the sanitization rules are with that,

322
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: If you like, I of just mimitting it close.

323
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'll let you guys. It's electronic. That's that's the

324
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 7: big secrets. You know you want to sell it, Yeah.

325
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 6: You want to sell it.

326
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 2: I do like the.

327
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 7: Hands away, yeah, because you know there you know there

328
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 7: probably is somebody up there that's like just fricking putting

329
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 7: their mouth all over and drooling on it.

330
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 12: So no, I was hoping we.

331
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,239
Speaker 2: Could get a little, you know, a little higher horn.

332
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 7: This last time, but uh, it's not really designed for

333
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 7: six but six guys.

334
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 6: Jared, you spent most of your career either with Minnesota

335
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 6: or Kansas City. Initially, they just happened to both be undefeated.

336
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 6: They both happen to have great defenses. I feel like

337
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 6: you could step into one of these defenses and you

338
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 6: would enjoy playing with the guys that are out there

339
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 6: right now.

340
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 2: This is yours.

341
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 6: They both get after the quarterback. They both have unblockable forces,

342
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 6: they both have great coordinators. It seems like it would

343
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 6: be a place where you would have a good time.

344
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 6: And neither one of these teams right now.

345
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 2: I agree.

346
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 7: I agree. I think Kansas City probably suits me a

347
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 7: little better for my style. You know, Flora's defense is awesome,

348
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 7: but I'm not athletic enough to playing a three four.

349
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 7: You know, I gotta get my hand on the ground,

350
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 7: I gotta go, I gotta get physical with a guy

351
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 7: and use some techniques.

352
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 2: So I'm a four to three guy all the way.

353
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 7: But no, they're both doing great defense and I love

354
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 7: I love seeing the defense lead the charge. You know,

355
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 7: I gotta spend some time with coach Flores, you know,

356
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 7: just a handful of minutes over.

357
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 2: London and talking to him.

358
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 7: You see the personality, his personality in the defense, right,

359
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 7: You see how much he is passionate about the game.

360
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 7: You see, you know what what he wants to do.

361
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 7: And I love that he's a aggressive and I mean

362
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 7: Van Ginkle, Gernard, I mean Pat Jones, I mean they

363
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,360
Speaker 7: got they almost have a problem where there's too many

364
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,640
Speaker 7: people being successful, So how do you keep all those

365
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,679
Speaker 7: guys into a rhythm. So I just think it's a

366
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 7: hats off to the coaching staff and what they're what

367
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 7: they're doing. I think, you know, the narrative of this

368
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,360
Speaker 7: offseason with the Vikings was, you know, you know, especially after.

369
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 2: JJ got hurt. You know, what were they going to do?

370
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 7: You know, maybe it's one of those not never rebuilding season, right,

371
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,399
Speaker 7: but you know, maybe one of those, you know seasons

372
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 7: where we got some young guys you're developing, and I'm

373
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 7: thinking you're seeing an organization that said the.

374
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:35,719
Speaker 2: Heck with all of that, Like, let's go get it.

375
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,119
Speaker 7: And these kids are playing hard, they're playing fast, and

376
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:39,159
Speaker 7: it's exciting to watch.

377
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 1: So you were going into the NFL London Games Ring

378
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 1: of Honor, brand new honor. Here you and OCU Majora

379
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 1: the first two inductees into this class. I had to

380
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,640
Speaker 1: look up to remind myself. Twenty thirteen was the game

381
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 1: against the Steelers where you had two and a half sex.

382
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 2: I was at that game.

383
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:03,199
Speaker 1: That feels like eight decades ago at this point, but

384
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 1: obviously still very memorable for the people there.

385
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 2: What you accomplished. What does that on I mean to you? Yeah?

386
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:08,199
Speaker 2: You know what.

387
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 7: When they told me this summer I was a finalist

388
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 7: for and I didn't put my thought into it, uh

389
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 7: you know, but I thought it was cool. I'm like,

390
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 7: there's a body of work, you know, with all the

391
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,439
Speaker 7: international games now, and for that body of work that

392
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 7: game to stand out, you know, I gotta be honest.

393
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,199
Speaker 7: I had a guy one of an interview I did

394
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 7: was reading me back to the stats from the game.

395
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 7: I was like, oh, crap, I guess I did have

396
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:32,160
Speaker 7: a pretty good game. And I'm still mad that they're

397
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:33,160
Speaker 7: didn't give me a third.

398
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 2: Sack, you know who? I shared that half sack with

399
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 2: But I'm sure it was all mine, Jared.

400
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 6: I used to live in Minnesota for a long time.

401
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 6: I did all those sports. I played ice hockey, I

402
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 6: was on a snowmobiler, I was, you know, a cross

403
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 6: country skiing. I did a little bit of curly, a

404
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,400
Speaker 6: little bit, just because it was something to do outside.

405
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 13: I do.

406
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,360
Speaker 6: Football players retire and transition to every line of work

407
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 6: there is. I've never seen a guy go after curly.

408
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 6: What were behind your mind? What are you doing? How's

409
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,919
Speaker 6: it going? Are we going to see you in the Olympics?

410
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 6: Tell us about Yeah, you know.

411
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 7: I took a bed from a buddy to try to

412
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 7: make the Olympics, and I chose curling. We're down that

413
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 7: path was given it a mean I've been now, it's

414
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 7: been been a handful of years, you know, if I've

415
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 7: been to Nationals handful of times. Uh So this last

416
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 7: year we qualified fourth for Nationals. Unfortunately Nationals thn go

417
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 7: our way. We kind of got a butts kicking Nationals.

418
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 7: So yeah, curly is plum. That's that's the clipto version

419
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 7: of how I got involved in it. And then you know,

420
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,439
Speaker 7: I have that mindset. Whatever I do, I want to.

421
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 7: I want to, you know, I'll work tirelessly at it

422
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 7: to make sure I'm not the reason we're losing out there.

423
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's fun.

424
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 7: I think it takes you completely out of your realm

425
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 7: of what I'm used to. Right in curling, aggression doesn't

426
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 7: work for you. You really got to be able to

427
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 7: be in control of your body. The slide technique now,

428
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,640
Speaker 7: the physical side from sweeping and technique and learning how

429
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 7: to replicate a motion over and over and over again

430
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,120
Speaker 7: is something that I can do just because being an athlete.

431
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 7: So it's been fun. You know, as far as the

432
00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 7: Olympic goes do then we'll see. I'm not playing right

433
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 7: now this tier. Uh you know, you know our team

434
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 7: kind of split up after the last season USA curling.

435
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 7: I got, you know, there's some kind of different things

436
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,439
Speaker 7: with where how the uh how the a Litic trials,

437
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 7: the playoffs they'll take the top three points they'll have,

438
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 7: there'll be a playing game. So I'm sure you know,

439
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 7: we'll practice for this year then put a team together

440
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,680
Speaker 7: to try to win the challenge around to get into

441
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 7: the uh the trials. But but yeah, I mean curly

442
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 7: is a blast. I've been having fun with it. Like

443
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 7: I said, I'll never well shot a bet yet, so

444
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,360
Speaker 7: I'm gonna take it all the way so until.

445
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 2: They tell me no. So what else have you seeing

446
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 2: right now, Jared?

447
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 1: Across the league, there's so many good young pass rushers.

448
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 2: You get the veterans like t J.

449
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 1: Watt who when when you watch who do you like

450
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: to watch right now in the current game?

451
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:46,879
Speaker 7: You know, I used to like watching the old school

452
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 7: Ish guys right like I like I like watching the

453
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 7: mild Garretts. I think TJ. Wants a stud I think

454
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 7: he you know, he really plays that position well. You know,

455
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 7: he's asked to put his hand there, he's asked to drop,

456
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 7: He's asked to do a bunch of different things. I

457
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 7: think you're seeing a more dynamic, uh, more athletic pass

458
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,159
Speaker 7: rusher than back when I was playing where you know

459
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 7: you were. We were more position specific, you know, with

460
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 7: you know, especially with our hand of the dirt. We

461
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 7: had to play the run, we had to play the past.

462
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 7: And you're seeing guys that are athletic. You're seeing two

463
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 7: hundred and forty pounders. You're seeing this kind of highbred

464
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 7: three four outside linebacker who can rush the pass, who

465
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 7: can cover who can do it.

466
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 2: All, which which is cool to see.

467
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 7: But yeah, I mean there's definitely a sense of guys

468
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,440
Speaker 7: getting after the quarterbacks. So for me, I love it,

469
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,840
Speaker 7: especially in an offense driven league. But you don't you

470
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 7: don't really see the old school, you know, Hammerhead just

471
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 7: getting after playing and play out a lot of rotations,

472
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 7: a lot of situational you know football these days. So

473
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 7: you know, I still gravitate to some of the old school.

474
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 7: Look at the guys that you know, like I said,

475
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 7: the Miles Garrett, you know TJ.

476
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 2: Watt obviously you have lost to watch. Uh Max A.

477
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 7: Crossby does does a great job in you know, with

478
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 7: the Raiders. I mean there's there's a handful of other

479
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,080
Speaker 7: guys I can mentioned along the way. Uh So you

480
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,159
Speaker 7: know Danille Hunter, obviously I was sad to see them

481
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 7: leaves the Vikings, but you know, fun guy to watch

482
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 7: that aspect. But then you know, I go back to,

483
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 7: you know, the work I did with the Broncos a

484
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 7: little bit last year, and you got guys like Nick

485
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 7: Benito as some of the most athletic human beings I've

486
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,680
Speaker 7: ever seen in my life and their ability you know,

487
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 7: once it clicks mentally, physically for them in the understanding

488
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 7: the game of the young players. I mean the ability

489
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:24,919
Speaker 7: of guys like that. I mean you might see you

490
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 7: might see a twenty five sack, you know, you know,

491
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 7: a year one day, just because of the athleticism these guys.

492
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 2: So it's fun to watch.

493
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 7: But I think there's still no there's no way around physicality,

494
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 7: technique and desire, and I think when you put those

495
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 7: three together, it's special to watch.

496
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: Jared, thank you very much for being here. And before

497
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 1: I let you go to I just want to say

498
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,880
Speaker 1: I do appreciate the ongoing commitment to the Mullet It's

499
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 1: just it's never all you think. Maybe you know you've

500
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:55,880
Speaker 1: been out of the league a while, maybe you'd let it.

501
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 2: Go, just cut it off, go professional.

502
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 1: I actually got when they gave away the the Mullet

503
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: headbands at the Vikings Gameble do it right.

504
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 2: Here, you should Rocket. I mean that looks good on you.

505
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 2: I'm not glad, this is money.

506
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:10,439
Speaker 6: I'm so pride about it.

507
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:15,919
Speaker 2: Talk Jared, thanks a lot, man, appreciate the time.

508
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 12: I'm pleasure.

509
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 6: Thanks, guys, have a great one.

510
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 1: Yeah all right, all right, Dared, allill also spend a

511
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 1: little bit of time with this team right here, the

512
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:28,640
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears. They take on the Jaguars this coming week

513
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: in London here, So how do Caleb Williams and Trevor

514
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,119
Speaker 1: Lawrence build on the best games they've had all season?

515
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 1: Our Stacy Dales will help us break that down next

516
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 1: on The Insiders.

517
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 8: Thursday Night Football on Prime heads out West for an

518
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 8: NFC West showdown. It's Rock Perty and the San Francisco

519
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 8: forty nine Ers versus Geno Smith and the Seattle Seahawks

520
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 8: tonight at eight fifteen pm Eastern only on Prime Video.

521
00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 8: And our Bridge at content has headed out. Well, she's

522
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 8: always out west, She's in LA, but she's headed north.

523
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 8: She's in Seattle. Bridget welcome back to the show. I

524
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 8: think for a week six game, this probably has a

525
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 8: little bit more of a sense of urgency than we're

526
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 8: used to for these two teams. Both of them have

527
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 8: been a little bit shaky in the last few weeks.

528
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,239
Speaker 8: What do you expect from them?

529
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 6: Judy?

530
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,440
Speaker 3: It feels like the forty nine Ers and Seahawks whenever

531
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 3: they play, it feels like a very important game. But

532
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 3: Nick Bosa had the quote of the week this week

533
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 3: when he said it's not technically a must win because

534
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 3: if we lose, it doesn't mean our season's over, but

535
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 3: it's a must win, and every player in that locker

536
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 3: room is feeling that. I talked to forty nine Ers

537
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 3: full back Kyle Yuschek, who said, you know, after tough losses,

538
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 3: I asked him, what's the usually like in the locker room.

539
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 3: Of course, they had a divisional loss to the Cardinals

540
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,640
Speaker 3: on Sunday and he said it's usually either Trent Williams

541
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 3: or Fred Warner the get up and speak to the team.

542
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 3: And he said, this week they both said the same thing.

543
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 3: The theme in the locker room was we need to

544
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,120
Speaker 3: get the win. Of course, they've already dropped two games

545
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 3: in the division and they understand if they win here

546
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 3: tonight they could tie the Seahawks with that first place

547
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,919
Speaker 3: in the NFCUS. And if they lose, then, of course

548
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 3: it's gonna be a lot harder to climb out of

549
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 3: a three game losing streak in the NFCUS. As for

550
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 3: the Seahawks, Gino Smith has never won on a Thursday night.

551
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 3: He's zero to five on Thursdays. He's also never been

552
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 3: the forty nine Ers, But he said to me or

553
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 3: he said this week that that doesn't matter. None of

554
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 3: those games are going to help us. What matters is

555
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 3: what is out here tonight, and he said this is

556
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 3: going to be a slugfest. But he believes that they've

557
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 3: proven themselves already this season and they just have to

558
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 3: get back to being in the win column.

559
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 8: Judy, I mean, it would probably help Gino Smith to

560
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 8: finally get a win here if they could have a

561
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 8: running game. But Seattle has not really had much of

562
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 8: a running game in the first five weeks at all.

563
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 8: How do they get that on track, Judy?

564
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,880
Speaker 3: In that loss to the Giants on Sunday, they only

565
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 3: had seven rush is from running backs. To put in

566
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 3: perspective where that ranks. That's tied for the worst in Seahawks' history.

567
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 3: And I did the math for you so that you

568
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 3: don't have to that's almost fifty seasons. So things are

569
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 3: not good in the run game. Walking around on the

570
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 3: streets of Seattle this morning, people are talking about the

571
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 3: run game. That's the biggest topic of conversation here in Seattle.

572
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 3: Hopefully they can try to get that, you know changed.

573
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,639
Speaker 3: I talked with Tyler Lockett, the receiver for the Seahawks

574
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,639
Speaker 3: this week, and he said, yeah, we have a trio

575
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,879
Speaker 3: that's done really good things in the receiver room. But

576
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 3: the fact is, when we only throw the ball, it's

577
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,199
Speaker 3: so easy for defenses to understand what we're doing and

578
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 3: rush the quarterback because they think it's a pass play

579
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 3: every single play. He said, we have to get the

580
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 3: run game going. That loss to the Giants was a

581
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 3: big learning curve for he and the entire offense, and

582
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,919
Speaker 3: we'll see if they can change things tonight against a

583
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 3: forty nine ers team that's giving up the twenty first

584
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 3: fewest yards in terms of yards per carry to running backs.

585
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 8: Bridget grab some earplugs and enjoyed that game.

586
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 3: I know I can't hear you.

587
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 2: Live from London.

588
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 9: Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars.

589
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 2: They're the visiting team this week.

590
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,639
Speaker 9: They're the home team next week. In case you were curious, they.

591
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,920
Speaker 10: Take on Caleb Williams and the Bears on NFL Network. Rise,

592
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 10: Shine and watch Sunday, October thirteenth. That's this Sunday, nine

593
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 10: thirty am Eastern only on NFL Network and NFL Plus.

594
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 9: Subscription required for NFL Plus.

595
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 10: But you know where we're going to give you for

596
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,880
Speaker 10: free We're going to give you our Stacey Dales, who's

597
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 10: been over there in London for over a week now,

598
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:40,160
Speaker 10: her latest report on this game.

599
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 13: We are Jags Bears for our second game here in

600
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 13: London for Jacksonville, coming off their first victory of the

601
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 13: season against the Colts, but unfortunately dealing with the residual

602
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,439
Speaker 13: effects of Hurricane Milton. They'll leave just a few hours

603
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:58,159
Speaker 13: later than expected. They anticipate touchdown still though mid morning

604
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:01,400
Speaker 13: on Friday, trying to keep things as normal as possible.

605
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,919
Speaker 13: Trevor Lawrence, by the way, makes his fist start in

606
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 13: London on Sunday, that is tied for the most alongside

607
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 13: Blake Bortles. As for the Bears, coming off a victory

608
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 13: against the Panthers, but back to back wins and looking

609
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 13: for victory number four that would put them to four

610
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 13: and two, and they are certainly playing better, especially on

611
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 13: the offensive side of the ball. Spending some time in

612
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 13: meetings with their team, including their rookie quarterback Caleb Williams,

613
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 13: the communication has improved and as he said, he's just

614
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 13: been much more decisive. With that evolution in communication. The

615
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 13: run game has certainly helped with DeAndre Swift, but for

616
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 13: Caleb Williams and the Bears, looking to best his career

617
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 13: best performances last week with a big performance and showing

618
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 13: here in London on Sunday.

619
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 9: Thank you, Stacy Deal.

620
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 2: I love him.

621
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 9: We're over there.

622
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 10: Our crew really gives you the London flavor with what's

623
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 10: happening behind them, the SCENICX for these shots. Brian Baldinger,

624
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 10: Mount Laurel Mark Ross. I think so we'll just tell

625
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 10: you where Anio is manniunk Okay, See, I'm up here

626
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 10: in North Jersey with the rest of the Mets fans.

627
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 10: Not ideal for a Phillies fan today anyway, Brian Baldinger.

628
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 9: Let's not talk baseball. Let's talk football.

629
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 10: Let's talk Caleb Williams and how he has improved and

630
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 10: how he will continue to have success.

631
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, in the last two weeks they've scored

632
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 6: sixty points. As in offense, the running game has gotten

633
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 6: going with DeAndre Swift. But he's winning from the pocket.

634
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 6: That's the encouraging thing. And he's staying in there and

635
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 6: he's trusting the protection. The throw that they just showed

636
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 6: to DJ Moore was a dime down the fields, beautiful throw,

637
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 6: you know, little bang eate play right there against the corner.

638
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 6: But it was interesting to me, Mike, because after Cale

639
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 6: got home last week, you know, we watched the game study,

640
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 6: he immediately texted Kirby Joseph, his quarterback coach, and was

641
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 6: already telling him the things I got to work on,

642
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 6: not about throwing for three hundred yards, not about two touchdowns,

643
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 6: not no turnovers, about his footwork, about his progressions, about

644
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 6: some decision making that he thinks he can to prove upon.

645
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 6: And I think that was all really telling after the

646
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 6: best game that he's played, that he's not satisfied.

647
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 2: He wants more.

648
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 6: And I think you're seeing it come together as the

649
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 6: offensive line get settled up front, they're running the ball better,

650
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 6: and suddenly this offense is starting to jump a little

651
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 6: bit and that's encouraging. Freddie Bear Fan.

652
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 14: Pudy, you hit it just right with all those good

653
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 14: elements that are going positive for Caleb Wins, the confidence,

654
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 14: the decisiveness, feeling more comfortable. But it's also what he's

655
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 14: doing which made him special at SC was when he

656
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 14: could work that magic jumping around the pocket, avoiding tacklers,

657
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 14: avoiding rushers, as you're seeing right here. Early on he

658
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 14: was doing way too much of that where Okay, I

659
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 14: avoided one guy, let me try to avoid two and

660
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 14: three and four. Like, No, Caleb, you got to be

661
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 14: more decisive. Over the last couple of weeks, to me

662
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 14: when watching him, he's been doing that more where Okay,

663
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 14: I know I can't avoid the whole defense and make

664
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 14: a play, let me just avoid a couple guys, get out.

665
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 2: Of it and then do something either run or throw.

666
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 14: And that's what I've seen with him, where working his

667
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 14: magic more decisively and not trying to just be a

668
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 14: hero in every place. So the more he gets comfortable

669
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 14: with that, and that's what really separates him from other

670
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 14: quarterbacks is yes, you got to play on rhythm, you

671
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 14: got to make those check down throughs, you got to

672
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 14: make the lay up. But when he works his magic,

673
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 14: he's decisive with working his magic. And against his Jaguars

674
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 14: d who's what last in a league in passing, second

675
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 14: to last and totally ours and thirtieth against the in

676
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 14: points per game, you might see a lot more magic

677
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 14: this week, Mike.

678
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's not the PAC twelve, it's the NFL.

679
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 10: I think he's learning the rhythms of how things happen

680
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 10: in the pocket there, the rhythms are a lot faster,

681
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 10: the windows are a lot smaller. So yeah, he's the

682
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 10: numbers that we showed just the next gen status number

683
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 10: numbers were staggering. Let's flip it to the other side

684
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 10: of this game, Baldy. You know, this game was going

685
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 10: back and forth between the Jaguars and the Colts, and

686
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 10: you know, talking to Ian Rappaport and Tom Palace there,

687
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 10: we're texting each other kind of like I don't know, man,

688
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,479
Speaker 10: Jaggs lose this game, Like, yeah, they win it.

689
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 9: They head over to London for back to back weeks.

690
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 10: How they continue success and build off of that one

691
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 10: win there?

692
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 6: Brian Thomas Junior, you know, you know in the draft

693
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 6: last year, I mean it was basically the big three

694
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 6: Marvin Harrison, Roma, Doonsday, Eliite Neighbors. That's and then it

695
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 6: was like, okay, then there's the next tier. Well, the

696
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 6: next receiver drafted was Brian Thomas Junior, and he might

697
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 6: be better than all of them right now. He's so smooth.

698
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 6: They had the eighty five yard touchdown last week where

699
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 6: you could have put your morning cup of coffee on

700
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 6: his helmet. Mike, you wouldn't have spilt a drop. It

701
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 6: was just that smooth. Right here, I'm looking at him

702
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 6: stride like this guy he separates at the top of

703
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 6: his route, he runs away from defenders and now you're

704
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 6: gonna you're you're just seeing him being fed and he

705
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 6: looks like exactly what Jacksonville needs, a true number one

706
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 6: to go with Christian Kirk, you know, to go with

707
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 6: an assemblance of a running game that started to take

708
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 6: off a little bit with Etn and uh, you know

709
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 6: Bixby right now. So I think they have a chance

710
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 6: to start scoring some especially if they keep feeding that

711
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 6: rookie wide receiver who's the twenty third pick in that

712
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 6: first round of the draft.

713
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, Baldy.

714
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 14: When I did LSU, when I scouted them last year

715
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 14: with Neighbors and Thomas, I was going back and forth

716
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 14: depending on which game I watched, which one of those

717
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 14: guys I like better. I mean, that's how good Brian

718
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 14: Thomas Junior was and kind of got lost in the

719
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 14: mix leading up to the draft time for whatever reason.

720
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 14: But you talk about explosiveness down the field, I mean.

721
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 2: He's got it.

722
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 14: But for this offense, to the Jacksonville offense is about consistency.

723
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 14: We know they struggled for most of the season, and

724
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 14: then last week they put it on against the Colts,

725
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 14: but this will be more of a true test. I

726
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 14: talk about how bad Jacksonville's D was, Well, this Bears

727
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 14: D is fifth in the league in points per game

728
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 14: and third in takeaways. So Trevor Lawrence and this offense

729
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 14: better be having their a game again. Across the Atlantic.

730
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,320
Speaker 14: I'm not going to say across the open anymore, across

731
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 14: the Atlantic Ocean, to make sure that they are actually

732
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:02,000
Speaker 14: legit and that wasn't just some miarage last week against

733
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 14: that Colt s D.

734
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 9: Mike, it's a big pond. It's a huge pond.

735
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,840
Speaker 10: It's an ocelantic Thank you, Mark Ross, I appreciate, appreciate

736
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:10,839
Speaker 10: your accuracy.

737
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 9: Thank you, Brian Baldinger.

738
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 2: Tom Mark's the magic phrase. You got to send donuts

739
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 2: to the newsroom.

740
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 1: Josh Allen still trying to get on the same page

741
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,959
Speaker 1: with some of his supporting casts. No Klial Shakir last

742
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 1: week against the Texans. He's still not practicing. James Cook

743
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,359
Speaker 1: also not practicing this week. How do we get this

744
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 1: thing rolled again?

745
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 2: Josh?

746
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 15: Two tributes of slow starts and the lack of production

747
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 15: in the first half half some of the past two games. Well,

748
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,360
Speaker 15: I gotta be better ball placement and again a couple

749
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,520
Speaker 15: couple of throws that wish I could add back this

750
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 15: last game. But just making sure that we're on the

751
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 15: same page, and it starts with the quarterback and that's

752
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 15: on me. So you're just trying to find ways this

753
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,319
Speaker 15: next week of sustaining drives, being better on third down,

754
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 15: staying out of some of these third and long situations,

755
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 15: but one protecting myself to not taking sacks and getting

756
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 15: the ball out of my hands as quickly as possible

757
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 15: when the times present itself.

758
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,280
Speaker 2: We know Josh Allen will be out there this week.

759
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:17,720
Speaker 1: Well, we see Will Levis for the first time since

760
00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:21,480
Speaker 1: that dive for the first down. Levis said today he

761
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:25,479
Speaker 1: is fighting like hell to play this week. Obviously Mason

762
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 1: Rudolph took over. He would start if Levis can't go.

763
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 1: Ian Rappaport, what's the latest from your end on the

764
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:33,320
Speaker 1: status of Will Levis.

765
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 11: It does seem like Will Levis is tracking to play,

766
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:39,520
Speaker 11: and this really was the expectation after the BI week

767
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,640
Speaker 11: member had that extra week to prepare, they didn't play.

768
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:43,840
Speaker 12: He got a lot of rehab.

769
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 11: It sounds like he did some tests and the injury

770
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 11: is fair to say, not as bad as they initially believe.

771
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 11: So I would expect if things continue to go in

772
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,400
Speaker 11: this direction, Will Levis to be the starting.

773
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,280
Speaker 12: Quarterback for the Titans this week.

774
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 11: But it was interesting last week or actually two weeks ago,

775
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 11: when they last play, just to coe what it transpired.

776
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 11: Levis was staying there with a helmet, obviously wanting to

777
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 11: go in and it did feel a little bit to me.

778
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 11: The coaching staff was like, you know what, let's just

779
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,440
Speaker 11: see Mason Rudolph. Let's just see what this offense looked like.

780
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 11: And they ran the ball well, but it wasn't like

781
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,879
Speaker 11: a dramatic shift. It wasn't like, you know, you hit

782
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:19,319
Speaker 11: a button all of a sudden. It's a high powered

783
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,359
Speaker 11: offense looked kind of similar to what it was like

784
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 11: when Levis is out there.

785
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 12: They would love for Will Levis to be their franchise quarterback.

786
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 12: The tools are there, the skills are there.

787
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 11: He needs to stop doing that which is crazy things

788
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,400
Speaker 11: to land on the shoulder and knock him out of

789
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 11: the game, and needs to eliminate the mind numbing mistakes.

790
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 11: If he can do that, they can move the offense

791
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 11: and make it sort of regular manage the game. This

792
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,360
Speaker 11: could be the guy for them, but he's got to

793
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 11: go out and prove it. And that sort of starts

794
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 11: again this week.

795
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:51,840
Speaker 1: The bad players get all the attention. We've seen some

796
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 1: really good things from Will Levis as well, as you said,

797
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 1: that's what they're trying to artists here. Give him to

798
00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:00,839
Speaker 1: play smarter as well as better. Who was playing really

799
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:05,319
Speaker 1: well already. Jayden Daniels the Commander's rookie quarterbacks, but he's

800
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,560
Speaker 1: Sensation who right now not only is in the Rookie

801
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 1: of the Year conversation, he's in the MVP conversation as

802
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:14,920
Speaker 1: he gets set to face the raigning NFL MVP. Balby

803
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 1: and Mark Rasse and Ross will be back after this

804
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:19,800
Speaker 1: to talk about one of the games of the week

805
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 1: Ravens Commanders right after this on the Insidives.

806
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 13: Visit.

807
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,359
Speaker 6: Has there ever been a bigger coin toss the way

808
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:32,320
Speaker 6: this game is gone? Whoever gets the football. Both defenses

809
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 6: have been reeling offensively. It's been track thirty eight. All

810
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 6: is the score. The Bengals had a ten point lead

811
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 6: in the fourth quarter, Blamar dropped the staff get a

812
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 6: balls on the ground on the ground.

813
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 12: By Jermaina running to the forty to thirty.

814
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 10: Eight the Bengals half the football half to thirty eight

815
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:53,760
Speaker 10: of Baltimore.

816
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 6: Snap his on pocket kick it all the way.

817
00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 12: No, it is no God, no good, n top, no

818
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 12: is no good.

819
00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 13: This did left and the Ravens will get the ball

820
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 13: at the forty four yard line.

821
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:14,839
Speaker 2: Picked off Henry running to the left side, get the block.

822
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 14: He's a mcfet's role at thirty thirty not race twenty

823
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:19,719
Speaker 14: Nick takes.

824
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:19,959
Speaker 5: Out of state.

825
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 1: Come it's hardline.

826
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,040
Speaker 12: Justin tuckers from twenty four yard to Winnie.

827
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:28,239
Speaker 9: Tucker's kick is up.

828
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:32,920
Speaker 14: It is good, and the Ravens have run.

829
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 3: In overtime at Cincinnati.

830
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,800
Speaker 2: And the Ravens have defeat at the Bengals in the

831
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 2: wildest of wings. How did the Ravens follow that up? Well?

832
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,160
Speaker 1: How about a match up with one of the hottest

833
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 1: teams in the NFL, Lamar Jackson and the Ravens against

834
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 1: Jane Daniels and the Commanders. That game coming up in

835
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 1: the one pm Eastern time window on Sunday and should

836
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 1: be a great one.

837
00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:59,719
Speaker 2: As we welcome you back to the Insiders.

838
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 1: Welcome back, Brian Baldinger as well as Mark Cross with Me,

839
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:06,920
Speaker 1: Tom Pelisero, Baldy, you called the craziest game we've seen

840
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:08,239
Speaker 1: so far in the NFL last week.

841
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 2: You've seen Lamar play in person.

842
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 1: What are you looking for from him now is he

843
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 1: gets set to try to outduel one of the hot

844
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 1: young guys in the NFL.

845
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,319
Speaker 6: Well, that was easily one of the most entertaining games

846
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,719
Speaker 6: I've ever been a part of as an announcer, player

847
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 6: or whatever. There's a quarterback duel. I mean, Joe Burrow

848
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 6: was sensational. Lamar was equally sensational. And really, when you

849
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 6: watch Lamar, he really locks in during these games. He

850
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 6: doesn't celebrate anything. He's not a guy fist pumping. He

851
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 6: comes to the sideline, he's not a guy into the video.

852
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,400
Speaker 6: He's not really talking. He just goes and he sits

853
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,279
Speaker 6: in his own He was down ten points most of

854
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 6: the second half. He had to come back and score

855
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 6: every drive they did, and then they won it in overtime.

856
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 6: But this play is the you know, one of the

857
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 6: plays of the year. He takes a shot right there

858
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 6: at the end and finds Isaiah. Likely on that particular play,

859
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,839
Speaker 6: there's nothing he can't do. He might be the best

860
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:07,520
Speaker 6: version of Lamar we've ever seen. He's accounted for eleven touchdowns,

861
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 6: he's throwing the one interception right now. I mean, he's

862
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 6: playing great football. And just when you say, okay, well

863
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 6: he's got to get the deepot, well he found the deepot.

864
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 6: Well you got to get the ball to Mark Andrews.

865
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:21,359
Speaker 6: While he's getting the ball to Mark Andrews. There's really

866
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:23,799
Speaker 6: nothing he can't do right now. Look at his throw

867
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 6: down the field to Charlie Kolar. I mean, all the

868
00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 6: tight ends are getting involved. So he's really just at

869
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 6: an MVP level right now. And that's what you have

870
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,000
Speaker 6: to deal with because even when the ball drops or

871
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 6: the play looks like it's broken down, his ability to

872
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 6: rescue a play and make a better play is unmatched

873
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 6: by anybody in this league right now.

874
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:46,880
Speaker 14: Yeah, Baldi, I mean, I don't know what else Lamar

875
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,640
Speaker 14: has to do it, But no matter what he does,

876
00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:51,800
Speaker 14: there's always the questions that, well he doesn't do this,

877
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 14: he do that, like you just said, and I don't

878
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:56,200
Speaker 14: know what else the guy has to do. He just

879
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 14: puts together a masterpiece every week. He goes out or

880
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:03,360
Speaker 14: masterpiece every play and he just does things as you mentioned,

881
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,919
Speaker 14: that nobody else can do, and he still can get better.

882
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 14: I think there's still even more there that Lamar can

883
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 14: improve upon. And that's scary for the opposing defenses. And

884
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,400
Speaker 14: you know, now it's we see what they can do

885
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,040
Speaker 14: when the offense just hums with Dereck Henry in there

886
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,720
Speaker 14: and leading the league and rushing, and then okay, now Lamar,

887
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,279
Speaker 14: just go be magic, Just just go be special and

888
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,600
Speaker 14: win the game for us. So I think with this

889
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 14: offense is that they have playmakers with Zay and Andrews

890
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 14: and likely and Colar jumping in there, go ahead and

891
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:35,040
Speaker 14: make plays.

892
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 2: And of course with Henry.

893
00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:39,280
Speaker 14: Running the ball, that this offense can be just efficient

894
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,320
Speaker 14: and effective just running it regularly. And then okay, now Lamar,

895
00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:44,879
Speaker 14: we need something special, go break their back.

896
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 2: They go win it for us.

897
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:49,240
Speaker 14: And I think he still will get better and progress

898
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 14: throughout the year. And you know, I think with the

899
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 14: Ravens right now, the way they're humming on offense, it's

900
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 14: hard to really see a way to consistently stop them.

901
00:41:58,680 --> 00:41:58,879
Speaker 2: Mark.

902
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 1: One thing I think is fascinating is Lamar Jackson has

903
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,920
Speaker 1: improved as a pocket passer. He's become more accurate over

904
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: the course of time, and that was a year's long

905
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:09,400
Speaker 1: process to kind of make him the well rounded quarterback

906
00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 1: that he is now. Jade Daniels came out of the

907
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,800
Speaker 1: gate playing from the pocket and being accurate. When you

908
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:18,879
Speaker 1: watch what you've seen from these first five games from him,

909
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:20,879
Speaker 1: what are you looking for now is he gets set

910
00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 1: to face Baltimore.

911
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:26,160
Speaker 14: Yeah, he really has looked gotten comfortable each week. He

912
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 14: saw the flashes the first game, he saw the flashes

913
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 14: the second game. Then you just saw a click where

914
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 14: he just put it all together.

915
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:34,200
Speaker 2: On that prime time game.

916
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 14: But even from the start, he always seemed comfortable. He

917
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,840
Speaker 14: never seemed phased or rattled. He'd always seemed in command

918
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 14: and in control. And that's what makes guys special. And

919
00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:46,759
Speaker 14: I always go back to my scouting days. Okay, what

920
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:49,440
Speaker 14: elements did he show in college that he showed in

921
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,880
Speaker 14: the pros? And he basically looks the same. Where it's

922
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,279
Speaker 14: the arm, it's the deep ball, it's the quickness with

923
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,440
Speaker 14: the delivery and the accuracy. Okay, now I am the

924
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 14: most dynamic runner since coming out, and you know, that's

925
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 14: really been the big thing for him. But I think

926
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 14: this week will be the true test. I know Baltimore's

927
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:10,200
Speaker 14: defense pass defense has struggled. They're number one against the run,

928
00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:13,680
Speaker 14: but the pass d has struggled. But they played Patrick Mahomes,

929
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,719
Speaker 14: Dak Prescott, Josh Allen, and Joe Burrow. So they went

930
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:19,919
Speaker 14: through the five of more of the best quarterbacks top

931
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,640
Speaker 14: six quarterbacks in the league already. So this will be

932
00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,440
Speaker 14: a true test for jayde Daniels at BALDI where I

933
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:27,640
Speaker 14: know the Baltimore D is struggling, but they won against

934
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 14: all the top guys and he stepped his game up

935
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 14: against that historically good defense.

936
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 6: Well, just in the highlights we just showed Mark, we

937
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,320
Speaker 6: saw a go ball to Diami Brown for forty one yards,

938
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,160
Speaker 6: dropped it right in the bucket. We saw a scramble

939
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,160
Speaker 6: get out of the pocket and make him play to

940
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:47,319
Speaker 6: Terry McLarin for sixty six yards across his body down

941
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,759
Speaker 6: the field, dropped it right in the bucket. We saw

942
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 6: a twenty yard comeback to Terry McClaren on timing where

943
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 6: the balls in the air, McLaren's getting separation from the

944
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,200
Speaker 6: top of his route, comes back and the ball's right there.

945
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:01,360
Speaker 2: The timing that he.

946
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:04,600
Speaker 6: Has with his receivers, these things just don't happen, like

947
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:07,760
Speaker 6: you can only get like that because of the amount

948
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,200
Speaker 6: of work that you're putting in. And you know he's

949
00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 6: got these you know, he's got these vision goggles that

950
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,480
Speaker 6: he's working with to kind of read defenses. I think

951
00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 6: it works with them. He did it at LSU, he's

952
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:21,439
Speaker 6: doing it now, and I think Cliff Kingsbury has given

953
00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:24,839
Speaker 6: him a nice template to work with. I think he's

954
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:26,880
Speaker 6: got good decisions to make it to line of scrimmage.

955
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 6: I think Cliff has given him some autonomy at the

956
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:32,239
Speaker 6: line of scrimmage to make some checks and calls. But

957
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 6: he is in complete control. I always say this about

958
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 6: Jayden just in five games, like he might be the

959
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:39,959
Speaker 6: fastest guy in the field, but he's never in a hurry.

960
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 6: Like his ability just to play calm and no matter

961
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:47,279
Speaker 6: what's around. Todd Bowles splits them every play that first game,

962
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:49,880
Speaker 6: but he always looked calm the whole game, and so

963
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 6: I think he learned from that game and now his

964
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 6: decision making whether the run pass become a threat to

965
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 6: challenge the defense, Like it's all very slow for him

966
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:02,359
Speaker 6: right now, and it's great to see because we need

967
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:04,319
Speaker 6: great young quarterbacks in this league.

968
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,359
Speaker 2: Definitely got one or Lamar's. I thought, old, let's say

969
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:09,960
Speaker 2: two of them in this game on Sunday.

970
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 1: Should be a fun one. Baldi Mark, thank you very much.

971
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:16,360
Speaker 1: Look forward to speaking with both of you again. Sued Tennessee.

972
00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:18,360
Speaker 1: We talked about their quarterback situation.

973
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,200
Speaker 2: Sounds like Will Levis is pushing to play if he does.

974
00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:25,759
Speaker 1: Oh man, we get to see the throwback uniforms this week.

975
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,360
Speaker 1: But are they the best alternate uniforms this season?

976
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:31,200
Speaker 2: We'll discuss it next on the Insetters.

977
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:39,160
Speaker 1: Time out against Hate, led by New England Patriots owner

978
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:42,320
Speaker 1: Robert Kraft, will be delivered through a television commercial featuring

979
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:48,880
Speaker 1: numerous sports personalities beginning tonight during T and F. That

980
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,360
Speaker 1: game kicking off Week six in the NFL is the

981
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,880
Speaker 1: Seahawks and the forty nine Ers. Very special day for

982
00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:59,840
Speaker 1: Seattle quarterback Gino Smith thirty four years young today, Happy birthday, Gino.

983
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:02,560
Speaker 1: Forty nine ers not going to get you any gifts.

984
00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:04,799
Speaker 1: We had to see those Seahawks throwbacks.

985
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:05,719
Speaker 2: I love them.

986
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:09,160
Speaker 1: We had one of the Seahawks players on recently, Devin Witherspoon,

987
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 1: talking about how much he digs them.

988
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,920
Speaker 2: What are the best ones the Jets breaking these out.

989
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:14,760
Speaker 2: These are classics.

990
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 1: I always make me think of Joe Nabath. An NFL

991
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 1: on Fox Pool came up with these Saints as the best.

992
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:22,640
Speaker 2: Uniforms in the NFL.

993
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:26,440
Speaker 1: They introduced some of their alternates here over the course

994
00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:30,239
Speaker 1: of recent time here, Ian, what is your favorite throwback

995
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 1: er alternate game today?

996
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:38,800
Speaker 12: I would say, for me, the Seahawks are my favorite.

997
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:42,480
Speaker 11: Right I've gone on record as absolutely loving the Brian Bodsworth,

998
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:45,560
Speaker 11: Steve LARTs and Seahawks uniforms, But I would say this,

999
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:50,399
Speaker 11: the Kelly Green Eagles uniforms hit the hardest. Like They're

1000
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:54,799
Speaker 11: not my personal favorite, but it is unbelievable how many

1001
00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 11: Eagles fans bought those jerseys. I see them all the time,

1002
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 11: almost as much as the regular ones, So that's kind

1003
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:03,040
Speaker 11: of two anchers in one.

1004
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:06,760
Speaker 12: But that's what I think. I agree.

1005
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:08,959
Speaker 8: I see more of the Kelly Green than I see

1006
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 8: of any other Eagles jersey. But the best jersey not

1007
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:17,360
Speaker 8: the best jersey. The best uniform overall is the Dolphins

1008
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:21,320
Speaker 8: uniform that has the old Dolphins logo with the dolphin,

1009
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:25,399
Speaker 8: the leaping dolphin wearing a football helmet jumping in front

1010
00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:29,400
Speaker 8: of the sunburst it is inarguable that is the best uniform.

1011
00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:33,359
Speaker 10: Yeah, the Kelly Green back to that, I still think

1012
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:35,239
Speaker 10: it's a different green from what I feel like.

1013
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:37,280
Speaker 9: The Green from the Night was a little darker.

1014
00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,360
Speaker 10: But they're still awesome because I grew up rooting for

1015
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 10: that team, so they're awesome. I would also put the

1016
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:44,719
Speaker 10: Seahawks number one, but everybody said that already, so I'm

1017
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:45,520
Speaker 10: going to go something different.

1018
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 9: How about Broncos Raiders?

1019
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:49,800
Speaker 10: Like last week with the Broncos wearing the throwbacks and

1020
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,279
Speaker 10: the Raiders wearing the classic uniform, it was right back

1021
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:53,040
Speaker 10: into my childhood.

1022
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 2: That was awesome.

1023
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,640
Speaker 1: I mean, the socks do up here throwback amazing, So

1024
00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 1: you're not going to talk me off. The Giants with

1025
00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:01,840
Speaker 1: their tan pants still number one in my power rankings.

1026
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:03,360
Speaker 1: We're back in the NFL Network tomorrow.

1027
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:03,920
Speaker 2: See you
